As the most powerful general under Prince Longde, Fu Lei's strength is no less than that of a late second-level martial artist, and he has seen a lot of the world.
In the past, he had also seen more powerful hermit masters, but compared with the two people in front of him, they were not at the same level. Masters like this with extremely high cultivation level would be respected wherever they went, even if they were the king of a country.
I don't want to easily provoke such masters.
The king has tens of thousands of troops under his command, but no emperor from ancient times to the present would have thousands of troops with him at any time and at any time. Real masters can easily sneak into the imperial city and take the heads of people in the army. With their
Cultivation is enough to attack and kill the emperor without alerting anyone, but not stupid enough to confront an army of hundreds of thousands.
Just like just now, if they had to rescue the princess and the situation was critical, and the two of them fought against a thousand cavalry without any scruples, they could have used other methods to kill them all effortlessly. How could they be injured?
Therefore, Fu Lei did not mention the so-called title of general. In front of a top master, a small official is meaningless.
Xia Lei waved his hand to Fu Lei, who was kneeling on the ground, and said feebly: "Okay, don't say so much, my brother and I took action because we thought you were a good person. My name is Xia Lei, your name is Fu Lei, haha... in the name
They both have the character "Thunder", so it's a bit of a fate. Is there anything to eat or drink?"
"Sir, we have food here."
The hired guards in the caravan took the opportunity to run over and respectfully handed over the animal meat that had been roasted for dry food last night, as well as the skins containing fine wine.
After glancing at those guys, Xia Lei took the skin bag and animal meat and said with a smile: "I help the rebels deal with the government, so I can be considered a rebel. You are colluding with the rebels to kill the nine tribes, aren't you afraid?
"
One of them, a man in his forties with a scar on his face, suddenly knelt down on one knee and said to Xia Lei: "Sir, we people would have been ruined a long time ago, otherwise we wouldn't be eating this food. If you don't mind it, sir."
, I would like to follow you in the future, and share weal and woe through mountains of swords and seas of fire!"
"Isn't it right? I have been in the underworld for so many years, how can I have a younger brother here?" Xia Lei was dumbfounded.
"Please Mr. Xia and Mr. Ao accept us!"
A group of men all knelt down. The more blood a man puts on his knife, the more he admires heroes. Xia Lei and Odin are undoubtedly the heroes among heroes and the masters among masters.
Xia Lei shook his head and chuckled, and said calmly: "Okay, but let's talk about it first. Odin and I are not the same people. You should decide first whether you want to go with him or with me."
Odin was stunned for a moment and groaned in displeasure. A dozen big men vaguely saw the clues. It seemed that the two of them were more like a temporary alliance of interests.
Obviously, Xia Lei's strength surpassed that of Odin, and they were not fools. They all became Xia Lei's younger brothers of course.
Seeing someone complacently eating and making peace, Odin was full of curses and hummed: "What's so proud about accepting a group of mortals? I'm not afraid of lowering myself. I don't even bother to be with such mortals."
Make a connection."
"Oh? Then aren't everything you eat and drink given to you by mortals?" Xia Lei choked to death with just one sentence.
"The two heroes are seriously injured, should we bandage their wounds first?"
Just as Fu Lei was speaking, the carriage protected by ten cavalry turned back, and a girl with bright eyes and white teeth pulled a five or six-year-old boy out of the carriage.
They are the only remaining bloodline of Prince Longde, the princess and the crown prince who escaped from the disaster.
The young prince's face was full of tears. He was the one who cried the loudest before. After all, he was too young. How could he not be shocked by such a drastic change?
"Xi'er pays homage to these two benefactors. There is no way I can repay the kindness of saving my life." Princess Yingying paid her respects.
The eyes of those guys who had just been taken in by Xia Lei as their younger brothers were all stunned. They had never seen such a beautiful person before. This was the real rich lady, whose status was second only to the royal princess and far from being the family of some wealthy officials.
's daughter is comparable.
Xia Lei's eyes fell on Princess Xi'er, and he couldn't help but secretly admired that this girl was indeed very beautiful.
Of course, he has seen countless beauties, and his wives are all even more beautiful than Xi'er, so naturally they won't be as horny as those guys.
He nodded casually and said, "Okay, it's not a big deal, you can go."
"etc!"
Odin suddenly stopped and asked Fu Lei: "Boy, I have something to ask you. It's not too late to leave after asking. Is there anything special in your country of Longyuan? It's the kind of place or wonder that is beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
, scenes, special areas and so on.”
After hearing what he said, Xia Lei naturally understood what he meant and secretly blamed himself for being too reckless.
I didn't ask anything in the wild tribe, and I didn't get any answers later when I followed the caravan. Maybe those people had too little knowledge?
Fu Leigui is a general in the prince's palace, and he is well-informed. He knows much more about Longyuan Kingdom than the average person. He may not know what he really knows.
Unfortunately, Odin's inquiry still didn't get the answer he wanted. Fu Lei shook his head and said: "Mr. Ao, the Longyuan Kingdom is millions of miles wide. Although I can't say that I know every place, I have seen and heard a lot. I have never heard of it.
The kind of place that sir said."
"Uncle Fu, does Long Yuan count as..."
"no!"
Fu Lei glared at the princess fiercely and quickly interrupted her, completely different from his previous respect for the princess.
Xia Lei and Odin are not fools. It seems that Fu Lei did not tell the truth, but deliberately concealed some information for some reasons.
The dozen or so people who had just worshiped the boss couldn't help but stare. The leader, Scarface, suddenly pulled out his machete, pointed at Fu Lei and shouted sternly: "Okay! You ungrateful bastard, the boss just risked his life to save you, and you still hide it,
I’ll chop you up if you don’t live today!”
The machete whizzed towards Fu Lei's head, and the latter had no intention of resisting. Looking at the situation, he would not tell the secret even if he died.
bite……
A stone popped out of Xia Lei's hand, and the machete was shot away by the small stone. He said calmly: "Seeing that you are also a man, I don't want to force you to speak using unscrupulous means. Tell me, how do you want to do it?"
Tell me the secret and I can satisfy any of your conditions."
"Really? Is it okay to kill the villainous uncle and avenge his father?" The young prince clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with anger and hatred that was inappropriate for his age.
"Okay, even if you want to sit on the throne, it won't be a problem." Xia Lei said with a smile.
"Shut up!"
Fu Lei shouted angrily, pulled the young prince, looked at Xia Lei cautiously, and said word by word: "Fu protects the princess and the prince just to repay the prince's kindness, but he never thought that someone
To usurp the throne. As a member of Longyuan Kingdom, how can Mr. Xia say such rebellious words?"
Shaking his head helplessly and sighing, Xia Lei glanced at him with pity and chuckled: "Fu Lei, do you believe it? If the world continues to develop, one day there will be no emperor, and the person in power of the country will be
When elected by civilians, there is no such thing as imperial power and hereditary inheritance. Every move of those in power will be supervised by the people. Once they do something wrong, they will even be stripped of their status and power by the civilians."
"The royal family and imperial power are supreme, and the emperor is the true dragon and emperor!"
"Princes, generals and ministers, would you rather have the seed?"
Xia Lei didn't want to get entangled with him on this matter. After all, the two parties lived in completely different eras and had different understandings of social development: "Is this secret related to the national structure of Longyuan Kingdom?"
As this question came out, Fu Lei couldn't help but be stunned. He was silent for a while before nodding sadly: "If this secret is exposed, it is likely to cause great turmoil, and even... it will cause a nationwide mutiny and the collapse of the country. This
Only members of the royal family and senior officials know the secret. Anyone who dares to leak the secret will be implicated in the nine clans. It's not that I'm afraid of the so-called criminal liability, but that this matter is related to Longyuan Kingdom itself. You must not tell it.
Please forgive me, sir."
"You guys step back first."
Xia Lei gave the order, and more than a dozen of his subordinates glared at Fu Lei and left. Fu Lei also asked the few remaining soldiers to move away. He knew that Xia Lei did not want others to know the ensuing conversation.
Princess Xi'er has been secretly staring at him. Although her clothes were soaked with blood, her hair was messy, and her clothes were disheveled, her majestic momentum and heroic image would not be reduced by these things. What made her most haunted was
Xia Lei's handsome, humiliating appearance and dual role of hero and handsome boy are like an unattainable dream for an inexperienced girl like her.
Now, her dream was right in front of her, and she couldn't express the excitement in her heart. Seeing that the crowd was far away, she quickly took out a delicate wooden box from the carriage next to her, and shyly whispered: "Mr. Xia, you are seriously injured.
How about bandaging it first?"
Without waiting for Xia Lei's response, she walked gently to the side and took out the delicate scissors to cut off the clothes on her left shoulder.
"How... how is it possible..." The princess was shocked.
"this……"
Fu Lei was also dumbfounded. He had clearly seen that he had been hit by an arrow in his left shoulder, that there was a hole in his clothes, and that there was bright red blood all around.
However, after the arrow was pulled out early in the morning, the wound shrank from the size of a thumb, more than half an inch deep, to the size of a fingernail. The blood hole was only a shallow half centimeter, which was not considered an injury at all. It was full of blood that said no.
It's weird.
Xia Lei deliberately let them see this, and found that the two of them looked shocked, and chuckled: "Fu Lei, there are only a few of us now. If you tell the so-called secret, I can guarantee that the national structure of Longyuan Kingdom will not be shaken.
I don’t belong to this world, and your national system has nothing to do with me, do you understand?”
Not of this world...
Fu Lei and the princess' eyes were filled with shock. With the level of technology in this world, they could not fully understand the meaning of this sentence.
However, what he saw before him was an indisputable fact, and Fu Lei finally chose to speak out.
This is indeed a big secret, enough to cause a civil uprising. The matter can be traced back to eight hundred years ago, that is, when the Longyuan Kingdom had not yet been established and the entire continent existed in the form of tribes...
