Huge city gates, towering walls, and guarding soldiers, this place is no different from an ordinary city. The only difference is that most of the guards here are young, and most of them look like they are only in their twenties.
These people are all people who want to enter Sihuang Academy. Because they are not talented enough, or they are not old enough, or for various other reasons, the city lord's palace has cooperated with the elders of Sihuang Academy to allow them to be included in the military establishment. If they perform well, they will have the opportunity to enter.
In the inner courtyard of Sihuang Academy.
Everyone here has one thing in common, that is, they are eager to enter the Four Wilderness Academy, and they are eager to step into the door of the real Four Wilderness Academy.
So they are willing to guard the gate here. You can see that some of them are even some children from very good families in the city.
First, they can proudly say that I am working for Sihuang College and the City Lord's Mansion. Even if it is the lowest janitor job, they think it is an honor.
Secondly, as long as they perform well, they may be favored by Sihuang Academy. This is what everyone dreams of, so combining these two points, you can see many young people wearing uniforms just outside the city wall.
People, this job is not very glamorous, but they are all a group of people with dreams.
"You, show me your identity plate!"
At the city gate, a young man was checking the passers-by one by one. In fact, he was just pretending, and rarely said that he was truly checking every passer-by.
Because Songjiang City is the territory of Sihuang College, the elders of Sihuang College are stationed here, plus tens of thousands of troops from the city lord's palace are guarding it.
Therefore, over the past few years, Songjiang City has seemed particularly peaceful. Small things often happen, but things that threaten the safety of Songjiang City have not happened in decades.
A luxurious carriage, a group of men in black slowly advancing around the carriage, and a middle-aged man with a smile.
"People from the Ma family, please make way quickly."
Everyone gave way. Li Shang was not a famous person, but the clothes he wore had a big word "horse" printed on the chest. In Songjiang City, no one except the Ma family dared to wear such clothes.
When these guards saw it was Li Shang, they had no intention of stopping him. They were all too familiar with several people in the city.
"Wait, who are these people?"
A person with extremely sharp eyes saw Luo Yun and the others. The faces of this group of people looked extremely unfamiliar, and their wild aura made the people around them stay away from them unconsciously, which gave him a trace of doubt.
"Oh, you are talking about them. Ma Mansion has recently recruited new servants. Ma Mansion has been short of manpower recently."
Li Shang seemed extraordinarily calm. With these masters behind him, he couldn't help but be calm. Of course, he didn't want to expose them here and cause more trouble, so he had already thought of this excuse in advance.
"That's it, then let's go."
Li Shang clenched his fists at him, and immediately walked away with Luo Yun and the others, leaving this person still staring at their backs with some doubts. He always felt that these people were not just servants of Ma Mansion. Of course, this was
He doesn't have the right to ask too many questions about other people's family affairs.
call!
Li Shuwan let out a sigh of relief. After all, she was still a girl. Although she had experienced a lot, she was still sweating at the moment.
However, as the old saying goes, whatever you are afraid of will come. They had just advanced less than a hundred meters when a deep voice suddenly stopped them.
"stop."
A dignified-looking middle-aged man slowly walked towards them. This man had a standard Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. His face seemed to have the four characters "upright" written all over it.
Hearing this person's voice, Li Shang quickly made an imperceptible gesture to the person next to him. This was their arrangement in advance. Once something happened, this person would take the opportunity to blend into the crowd and then go to Ma Mansion.
Get someone to come over.
"Haha, Captain Bart, long time no see."
There was a trace of respect on Li Shang's face and he saluted Bart. The other party was from the City Lord's Mansion. Even if it was the Ma family, he had to give him this face.
"You said they are the newly recruited servants of Ma Mansion, why didn't I know about this?"
This is not Bart's deliberate attempt to make things difficult. Although Songjiang City is not small, he has lived here for twenty or thirty years. Naturally, he is very aware of all the big and small things in the city. Even if there is a slight disturbance, he can learn from some people's opinions.
Got some gossip.
The matter of recruiting servants is not a big deal, but if it is Ma Mansion, Bart will definitely hear the news in advance, but he has not heard that Ma Mansion has recruited servants before, which makes him have to
Create doubts.
"It's like this. This is what the head of the family told me before I left. If he sees any good players, if he is willing, he can find out the details and bring them back to Ma Mansion, so this matter has not been publicized to the outside world."
Li Shang's expression did not change and he looked at Bart quietly. He could not mess up his position at this time. Although Ma's Mansion would handle the matter in the end, no one wanted to cause more unnecessary trouble.
But Bart paid no attention to Li Shang, but kept observing these horses. Then he pointed at one of them and shouted: "You, get down here."
The person he was referring to was Di Xiu. Because Di Xiu was short in stature, he did not have clothes suitable for him at the time, so at this moment his body was completely wrapped in black clothes, and even his head was covered tightly by a hood.
.
This was the first time he saw such a bustling scene. He had never been to a sinful place before, and he couldn't help but look around curiously at this moment.
Of course, Disiu couldn't be frightened by Bart's words, but in order to cooperate with the work, he had no choice but to get off his horse.
"Take off the hat."
Di Xiu had almost no understanding of the world outside. Even if he knew about it, he only heard it mentioned by his grandfather Di Long who often told him stories.
The middle-aged man's tone made him feel very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable. Even though Bart was performing official duties, he still felt extremely uncomfortable. This feeling had never happened before. This tone seemed like he could only let the other person do it.
Same as slaughter.
"Can't you hear me?"
Bart was a little angry. This guy who looked like a child was indifferent. He stepped forward, and his strong and powerful hands came to Disuo like lightning. He wanted to lift the hood himself and take a look.
What kind of face is hidden inside.
He is not afraid of offending these people, and he does not dare to offend Ma Mansion completely, but these people are just servants at most, which is almost the lowest level of work, so he has nothing to be afraid of.
It's a pity that Disiu has lived in the wild since he was a child, and that wild aura was released at this moment. His hands were faster, almost at lightning speed, and Bart's strong wrist was pinched by his little hand.
.
"you……"
Bart felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and the cat-like pupils made him shiver. He stared at this thin figure with a look of shock. No one could imagine that this figure was almost only as old as
The guy on Bart's waist actually has such fast reaction speed and momentum.
"Dixiu!"
Luo Yun's slightly low voice came. He did not blame Di Xiu. This kind of thing was inevitable, but he could not just watch the matter escalate. In fact, there was nothing wrong in the first place. Once the matter broke out, it would be very harmful to both parties.
There is no benefit at all.
Hearing Luo Yun's voice, Di Xiu hesitated for a moment, but he slowly let go of his hand. Bart suddenly felt an extremely comfortable feeling coming from his wrist. The pain just now almost made him scream.
.
"I'll uncover it myself, so I won't bother you to do it."
Di Xiu simply raised his head, and the hooded hood was thrown behind him, and an extremely childish face appeared in front of everyone.
Except for the slight difference between the ears and human beings, there are no differences in other places, but everyone is looking at this childish face in surprise at this moment. The scene just now was seen by everyone, which made Bart eat in secret.
Sorry, what is the origin of this child?
When did Ma Mansion manage to recruit such a terrifying servant? Is this the ability a servant should have?
"Captain Bart, what's the problem?"
Li Shang took a step forward and asked about Bart, but he secretly laughed in his heart. Aren't you looking for trouble? You can knock out six masters of the ninth level of Qi power in an instant. Even ten Barts are not enough.
"Here, the origin of this child is unknown. I must take him back to find out his identity to prevent him from causing trouble in Songjiang City."
Bart suppressed the trembling in his heart, but his words were still very tough. He couldn't succumb in front of a child just because of this.
Where does Bart's reputation remain in the future? Moreover, he has always been known for strict law enforcement, and his reputation cannot be ruined because of a child.
"Captain Bart, I told you that he is a servant of my Ma family. Don't worry, these people will never cause trouble in Songjiang City again."
Li Shang was stalling for time because he understood that Bart was a hard-nosed guy with an obviously stubborn mind. Whatever he wanted to identify must be investigated strictly.
"That won't work..."
Before he finished speaking, a shocking noise suddenly came from the end of the bustling street. Immediately, everyone felt a tremor coming from the earth, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.
Everyone looked over and saw a figure. No, it couldn't be said to be a figure. It should be said that it was a flesh ball galloping towards here on horseback.
Obviously due to the weight, the horse under the meat ball staggers a bit when running, and it seems that it may fall down at any time.
A burst of exclamation came, and sure enough, the horse could no longer bear the weight on its back, staggered and fell to the ground, and the ball was also brought to the ground and rolled down to Li Luoyun.
They are not far away.
He didn't stop, he stood up and ran towards Luo Yun's direction again. When he looked closer, oh, it turned out to be a person.
Well, yes, you read that right, this is a person, a person with a nose, eyes, facial features, and all four limbs, a person of unknown ethnicity who is 1.8 meters tall.
I saw that the flesh on his body was like the waves on the seaside due to running. Wave after wave was shaking underneath him. But at this time, he could still walk as fast as flying. This looked like an extremely funny scene.
"Luo Yun, I've been waiting so long that my hair is almost turning white. I finally waited until you came back."
