He seems to have a high status among these guards.
As soon as he spoke, all the guards consciously made way for Lu Li.
Lu Li hummed a little tune and rode leisurely past the guards.
The guards' expressions changed again and again, but they didn't dare to show off, so they had to hold it in their hearts.
"I didn't expect that you are already a Bronze Knight at such a young age. The Knights are really full of talents."
As soon as Lu Li walked up to the man, he was praised by him.
"You look younger than me, right? Why do you talk like a weathered old man?"
Lu Li couldn't help but complain.
The man was startled when he heard this, and it took him a while to recover.
"Haha, you are right, I almost forgot that I am only fourteen years old."
"Fourteen years old? Then I'm older than you. I'm already sixteen this year. Logically speaking, you have to call me big brother!"
Lu Li said jokingly.
"Brother...?"
The man's face froze slightly, and he was a little stunned by Lu Li's words.
Who is this guy in front of me? He actually dares to call himself a brother. He is so courageous!
However, the man just smiled slightly and did not reveal his identity.
He wanted to see what kind of medicine Lu Li was selling in his gourd.
"Little brother, what's your name?"
Lu Li asked, patting the man's shoulder.
"My...my name is Mars, and what about you?"
"My name is Steve!"
Lu Li said with a smile.
"Do you know why I called you here?"
Mars asked.
"I know, isn't it just fishing?"
"Can you fish?"
Mars asked curiously.
"What's so difficult about this! Watch carefully!"
Lu Li picked up the fishing rod from the side, flicked it, and threw the hook into the water.
The whole set of movements was smooth and smooth, without any sloppiness.
Mars looked on with bright eyes.
On weekdays, he likes fishing and farming, so it is obvious that Lu Li is an experienced fisherman.
Not long after, waves appeared on the calm water.
"The fish bit the hook! Hurry up and close the pole!"
Mars reminded hurriedly.
Lu Li, however, remained calm and unhurried.
"Don't worry, wait a little longer!"
When the fish float was completely submerged in the water, Lu Li suddenly stopped his rod.
A plump salmon was pulled out of the water by him and fell to the grass behind, rolling around.
"Wow! You took the bait so quickly! You are so awesome!"
Mars looked at Lu Li with some admiration.
"Want to learn? I'll teach you."
Lu Li asked with a smile.
"Really...is it okay?"
Mars scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Of course, as long as you are willing to call me big brother, I will teach you!"
Lu Li said with a smirk.
He originally just said it casually, trying to tease the little boy in front of him who was pretending to be mature, but to his surprise, Mars took it seriously.
"Brother Steve! Please teach me!"
Mars bowed and clasped his fists at Lu Li and said.
When several guards saw Mars actually bowing to Lu Li, they rushed forward to stop him.
But before they could get closer, Mars glared at them fiercely.
He glared back at a few people.
Lu Li nodded with satisfaction, indicating that he recognized Mars as his younger brother.
In the next half day, Lu Li began to teach Mars step by step.
Mars is also very smart and learned everything quickly.
However, he has bad luck and always catches some garbage.
Lu Li had nothing to do, so he sat by the lake and started fishing.
In one afternoon, Lu Li harvested hundreds of fish and a bunch of miscellaneous things.
In addition, there is also a fishing rod enchanted with Sea Favor II.
Mars looked on with envy. What he gained in one afternoon was not as good as Lu Li's in one hour.
Seeing how pitiful he was, Lu Li gave the enchanted fishing rod to Mars.
Mars was full of surprise after getting the fishing rod. He refused to take anything from Lu Li for free and forced him to give him a large bag of gold coins.
Lu Li had no choice but to accept this happily.
If someone brings money to your door, you can’t refuse it, right?
Before parting, Mars hesitated for a long time and handed Lu Li a piece of paper.
"Brother, here is my address. If you encounter any trouble, you can come here to find me."
"What the hell, if something goes wrong, can you help me sort it out?"
Lu Li took the note and put it directly into his pocket.
"As long as it's not too much trouble, it should be okay..."
Mars said with some uncertainty.
"Okay, don't think so much. Do I, your elder brother, look like someone who is easily bullied?"
Mars looked at Lu Li and nodded first, then shook his head.
From the outside, Lu Li looks like an inexperienced child.
But after spending an afternoon with Lu Li, Mars had completely worshiped Lu Li.
Mars felt that there was nothing that Lu Li didn't know.
No matter what he asked, Lu Li could answer it.
Watching Lu Li go away, Mars suddenly felt a little depressed.
The guard behind him let out a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness Mars, that man just now is just a lowly knight. How can you be brothers with him? This is not good..."
Before the guard could finish speaking, Mars raised his hand and slapped him in the face.
"Steve is my eldest brother. If any of you dare to talk about him behind his back again, you can take the initiative to kill him."
Mars said with a gloomy face.
The guards were trembling with fear. This was the first time they had seen Mars so angry.
It was already dusk when Lu Li left the farm on Dahei.
He returned to Rice City and headed straight in the direction of the Knights.
The Knights Hall seemed particularly lively at night.
The knights drank happily here and got drunk before resting.
Lu Li, who came back to receive the commission reward, seemed to be an outlier among them.
"Young man, stop working so hard. The gap between the Bronze Knight and the Silver Knight cannot be filled in a short time. Even if you complete hundreds of commissions, you may not be able to accumulate enough honor points. Why not come and have a drink together!
"
A knight advised.
"It's just that, there is no war now, and the border areas are so peaceful, it is basically impossible to quickly accumulate honor points."
Another knight was also persuading.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone yelled and ran in from the door.
"No! There's a riot in the third mining area! The miners went on strike and fled!"
Upon hearing this news, the joyful atmosphere in the Knights Hall suddenly froze.
Lu Li's eyes narrowed and he instantly thought of the portal to the lower world.
He always felt that he was the culprit of this riot.
However, the matter has not yet been clarified, and Lu Li dare not make any hasty conclusions.
Without saying a word, he went out directly, got on Dahei's horse, and ran towards the third mining area outside Les City.
