In the lobby, the two met.
After greeting each other, Zhou Baoer sat down aside and asked.
"The boss looks familiar. Have we met before?"
Murong Feng said: "I also feel that King Huai'an looks familiar, maybe I have seen him before, but unfortunately I can't remember clearly."
The system jumped out at this time and said meaningfully.
"Host, this is the witch who hunted you when you first came to this world."
Murong Feng's face froze, and she asked quietly in her heart:
"Really or not, is it really her?"
The system nodded and replied.
"Yes, that's her."
Murong Feng's face became even stiffer after hearing this. He really had a feeling of panic about the young miko back then.
As for the reason, it's simple. It's just that I can't defeat others.
Zhou Baoer frowned, looked around, and asked.
"Who's talking?"
When Murong Feng heard such a question, his whole body was like a piece of wood, and he asked tremblingly.
"I'm going, did you just hear that?"
Zhou Baoer looked over with confusion, then nodded in realization and said apologetically.
"Sorry, I was rude."
Murong Feng quickly waved his hand and responded awkwardly.
"No, I was rude."
Zhou Baoer asked with a slight smile.
"Is the person who spoke just now related to the master's innate ability?"
The corner of Murong Feng's mouth twitched, feeling angry in his heart, but on the surface he nodded calmly.
"The King of Huai'an has good eyesight, that's true. He has helped me a lot to help me grow to this level."
Zhou Baoer nodded to express his understanding, and started chatting with Murong Feng on some miscellaneous topics.
In the eyes of everyone, the two chatted happily. Whether it was the weather or the current situation, everyone could chat for a while.
Almost half an hour later, after both of them drank several rounds of tea, and when the cakes and fruits in front of them were almost finished, Zhou Baoer finally revealed his true purpose.
"Master, I would like to ask you to join us and become one of us, can you?"
When Murong Feng suddenly heard this, the expression on his face was a little confused. He looked at the tasks that reappeared on the task panel. The most important thing was the five-digit points at the back, and he became excited.
The system said: "Calm down, be reserved, and don't act like you've never seen the world before."
Murong Feng said: "I have never seen so many points before. The reward for helping the Son of Destiny is really great."
The system noticed Zhou Baoer's surprised gaze, shrank inward, and spoke cautiously.
"As for the one who can hear me, I won't say any more to you. It's up to you. No matter whether you choose to fulfill this wish or not, I will support you and be with you forever."
Murong Feng curled his lips and said with disgust in his heart:
"Don't be so ambiguous, okay? I have nothing to do with you. People who don't know think you are my good friend!"
The system rolled its eyes again and sighed silently.
Stupid host, what a fuss.
Murong Feng raised his head, coughed slightly, and asked.
"King Huainan, what do you want to do by recruiting us?"
Zhou Baoer smiled and answered slowly.
"Master, you must also know that we also have female soldiers in Huai'an. I won't hide it from you. I will send most of you to the army. Regardless of meritorious service or mistakes, you will enjoy the same treatment as the soldiers under me."
Murong Feng nodded and continued to look at Zhou Baoer.
Zhou Baoer did not flinch and said with a smile:
"As for the big boss, I think the big boss is nothing more than power. He only cares about his own talents. Well, I can give the big boss a title and give him certain privileges. All the big bosses in my territory are You can kill first and tell later to fulfill the wishes of some people. However, the prerequisite is that it must be just and just."
Murong Feng silently thought in his heart that his ability had been known to so many people for a long time. Look at the conditions of the King of Huai'an, it touches his heart.
What did the King of Huai'an mean? To put it simply, it is to provide him with certain conveniences so that he can fulfill his wishes.
Murong Feng thought for a while and said with a serious expression.
"King Huai'an, I really can't refuse your offer."
When Zhou Baoer heard this, a smile appeared on his lips.
Murong Feng smiled and said again.
"The King of Huai'an must also know that I never care about the things under my hands. Oh, except when they didn't even have an independent person to take care of it, now I have returned all the power to them. Do you want to To recruit them, it depends on whether they agree or not."
When Zhou Baoer heard this, he pursed his lips and smiled lightly.
"I have figured out what the boss means. Could you please provide me with a convenience?"
Murong Feng understood this and sent someone to call several important senior leaders over.
Zhou Baoer waited for a while, and as expected, she was bombarded with questions one after another.
"I dare to ask the King of Huai'an, if we enter your army, how will we raise these young children?"
Zhou Baoer said: "I can send someone to raise them, or you can raise them yourself, it all depends on your wishes. During this process, I will also have people teach them to learn and teach them in accordance with their aptitude."
"May I ask King Huai'an, how will our marriage be handled?"
Zhou Baoer said: "When I ascend the throne as emperor in the future, I will specifically ask someone to amend the marriage law. From now on, there will be no such thing as a man marrying a woman. You can do whatever you want, and I won't care about the rest."
"May I ask King Huai'an, what marriage law do you want to amend?"
Zhou Baoer said: "The new marriage bill comes from your actions over the years. I have already inquired about it, and I think it is a good idea for daughters to follow their mothers and sons to follow their fathers, so I decided to learn from it."
"I dare to ask the King of Huai'an, what should I do about the inheritance of military merit and titles?"
Zhou Baoer said: "What belongs to the father goes to his son, and what belongs to his daughter goes to his daughter. What belongs to his mother goes to his daughter, and what belongs to his daughter goes to his son. In addition, there is also a theory of designated inheritance. If the mother does not want to give it to her son, and she has no daughter, she can Donate to the country, but also to sisters, nephews, nieces, or strangers.”
"I dare to ask the King of Huai'an, what should I do if a woman is unwilling to stay with a man?"
Zhou Baoer said: "It's up to her preference."
"I dare to ask the King of Huai'an, what should I do if a man wants three wives and four concubines?"
Zhou Baoer said: "There is no such thing as three wives and four concubines, and there will be no such thing as three wives and four concubines."
"Dare to ask the King of Huai'an..."
After almost an hour, the two parties finally reached an agreement on the terms.
When Zhou Baoer returned, Chen Chen and other waiting soldiers were stunned.
What kind of cool operation is this? In less than a day, a five-digit army has been recruited. Although they are all female soldiers, their strength is not low, and after so many years of fighting, they are all top-notch warriors.
How to recruit a team? Zhou Baoer doesn't need to worry about it, she just needs to grasp a general direction.
After the negotiations were concluded, Zhou Baoer was ready to leave and continue to hunt down the great witch who had stolen her personal space.
Out of caution, before leaving, she asked Murong Feng.
"Have you seen a great witch during this time? He is wearing a black robe. His figure and face cannot be seen clearly. He is very strange."
Murong Feng's expression was a little helpless. He had actually seen this person before. He was the great wizard who passed by here a few days ago.
"Your Highness, I wonder what that man did and you want you to lead an army to hunt him down?"
"He stole my personal space,"
Zhou Baoer said this and told Murong Feng the detailed process.
Murong Feng thought for a while and said.
"It's a matter of loyalty to others. If His Highness really catches that person, please don't embarrass him."
When Zhou Baoer heard this, he neither agreed nor refused. She looked at Murong Feng several times and asked meaningfully.
"So, does it mean that the head of the family has seen him?"
Murong Feng's expression was distorted for a moment, and he nodded helplessly.
"I did see him a few days ago and gave him some food."
Zhou Baoer touched his chin and said with a smile.
"I know that my portable space is powerful and not everyone can open it."
Murong Feng sighed and advised.
"It's not easy for us people to make some money. Please don't make things too difficult for him, Your Highness."
After Zhou Baoer pondered for a moment, he said with a smile on his face.
"Don't worry, even if it's for your sake, I won't do anything to him. If he knows what's going on, maybe I'll give him a blessing."
Murong Feng breathed a sigh of relief and told the direction of the great witch.
After Zhou Baoer left with his army, the system asked with a smile on his face.
"Although you have no friendship with that great witch, aren't you afraid that King Huai'an will kill him?"
Murong Feng said: "System, you don't understand this. King Huai'an has a pretty good reputation. She will definitely do what she promised me, no matter how difficult it is."
The system asked, shaking its head.
"How ungrateful and treacherous human beings can be. After watching them for so many years, don't you still understand?"
Murong Feng smiled slightly and retorted seriously.
"Even though some people like to be ungrateful and treacherous, there are still some people who promise a lot of money and truly live up to a gentleman's promise, which is hard to follow."
The system is not human and some do not understand human thoughts. He sighed and said nothing.
Zhou Baoer walked forward in the direction pointed by Murong Feng, and sure enough, he found traces of the strange wizard.
At this time, Zhou Baoer, who had been in a tense mood, finally relaxed and did not rush as fast as before.
Chen Chen noticed this immediately and asked, "Why did it slow down?"
Zhou Baoer smiled and replied.
"Master, as long as there are clues, I will always find him."
Chen Chen frowned and said.
"Didn't you tell me that there is still someone in your portable space?"
Zhou Baoer explained: "My portable space has food, shelter, clothing, and useful things. It has become a small world. They are safe and comfortable inside, and we don't have to worry outside." "
Chen Chen breathed a sigh of relief and asked again.
"That great witch stole your personal space, don't you hate him?"
Zhou Baoer thought for a while, shook his head, and replied.
"Master, there was a man who hurt someone with a knife. Would the injured person hate the knife? The great wizard had that knife. I don't hate him. But the premise is that he wants to return what belongs to me. .”
Chen Chen understood and asked no more questions.
One morning three days later, a soldier came to report.
"Your Highness, we saw some visions in front, please go and have a look."
Zhou Baoer nodded and asked.
"What exactly happened? Tell me carefully."
The soldier replied: "Your Highness, my subordinates and others found a valley in front of us, but we couldn't get in no matter how we walked. However, we found that many people went in and out, and we couldn't get in after them."
After hearing these words, Zhou Baoer felt confident. She came to the valley, looked at the layout around the valley, and completely confirmed her thoughts.
"There is a formation here. I'll go in and take a look. You guys wait outside, so there's no need to worry about my safety."
Chen Chen rode up to the front and said with a serious face.
"Your Highness, I will go with you."
Zhou Baoer thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, master, come with me."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them rode towards the valley on horseback. I don't know what happened, but they easily walked into a place that ordinary soldiers couldn't enter.
Zhou Baoer walked through the layers of fog and said with a faint smile.
"As expected, this is it."
Chen Chen looked around a few times and echoed.
"Yes, there is a formation here. Ordinary people can't get in, but those of us with talents can."
Zhou Baoer pulled the reins, turned around and asked.
"Master, do you know when these things were arranged?"
Chen Chen thought carefully and replied.
"If I guess correctly, this should be a stronghold set up by a dark wizard. The great wizard who stole your portable space is a dark wizard, and he is probably here to trade things."
Entering the so-called stronghold, Zhou Baoer was surprised to find that it was actually a street.
The long bluestone road is paved in the valley, surrounded by a series of shops.
In the middle of the street, there is a huge square. There were countless people setting up stalls in the square, and even more people were walking around, communicating.
Zhou Baoer took a quick look and found that there were not only wizards and witches, but also people from the martial arts who practiced internal skills, and even people from outside the Buddhist realm.
Among so many people, there was no one wearing black robes to hide their identity and appearance. Apparently, everyone present was not a dark wizard.
However, many people know that the black witch must be hidden among them. It's just that no one knows the identity of the other person.
Zhou Baoer rode his horse for a short distance, turned around and asked the master beside him.
"It seems that everyone is not very hostile to black witches, and they get along very harmoniously!"
Chen Chen shook his head and explained.
"Your Highness, you don't know something. In a place like this, no fighting is allowed. Otherwise, who is willing to do transactions and who can make money?"
Zhou Baoer nodded as if he understood, then put these things behind him.
Chen Chen added: "Actually, black witches are not considered heinous. Even those who kill people have their reasons. If there really is a witch that kills people and sucks blood for a living, both white witches and black witches will join forces. Get rid of them."
Zhou Baoer understood that there was not much hatred between the two parties. Just because of different positions, there will be a little friction. If there were really deep grudges, most of them would have died long ago.
After walking around for a long time and exploring the entire street, Zhou Baoer no longer had any objections to this place.
This place is probably similar to a black market, where everything is sold. If anyone has any inconvenience, this is the best place to buy something.
Zhou Baoer thought seriously, it's a good place to return to, but some places always need to be straightened out. For example, if there is no antidote, don’t sell it. What will happen to the injured people? Even if it doesn't hurt anyone, it's not good if it hurts flowers and plants.
After a little hiccup, she dismounted and bought some things with her own hands. For example, if you want to buy a few sets of fabrics suitable for shrine maidens to wear. The colorful ones are particularly beautiful, but they don’t make people feel too gaudy.
After buying some things, when the master and apprentice were preparing to leave, Zhou Baoer suddenly spotted a familiar figure.
this person…
Zhou Baoer always remembered that someone came to get close to her some time ago. Not long after that person left, she discovered that her personal space was missing.
Narrowing his eyes, Zhou Baoer immediately spoke to his master and chased after him on horseback.
"The one in front of you, stop it quickly. As long as you obediently give me your space, I will forget about it."
Xikui felt that she was extremely unlucky and regretted that she should not have agreed to King Taiyuan's request. Otherwise, he would not be in this situation now, hiding here and there and not living in peace at all.
This topic has to be discussed many, many years ago. He is young and ignorant, and owes a favor to the Li family in Taiyuan.
So after so many years, it was time for him to return his favor to the Li family in Taiyuan. Moreover, this debt of gratitude cannot be repaid.
The request of the Li family in Taiyuan is very simple, that is to steal the personal space of the King of Huai'an, the national treasure. The Taiyuan Li family didn't want the stolen portable space, so they kept it for himself.
The King of Huai'an is powerful and unpredictable. When he was only a few years old, he knew how to make arrangements and worked hard to fight for the throne today.
Under such circumstances, Xikui had no intention of agreeing to such an unreasonable request.
However, the people from the Li family in Taiyuan not only gave him favors, but also gave him what he needed most during this period.
He couldn't resist the temptation, so he agreed to the request and successfully stole the personal space from King Huai'an.
Only after he stole it did he realize that he had been deceived. Although the portable space could be stolen, it could not be opened or used at all.
Xikui was angry and ran away quickly, making sure not to be caught by King Huai'an. The power of the King of Huai'an is huge. This is really not a lie. He is recognized as the number one in the entire Central Plains.
After running for almost half a month, he breathed a sigh of relief at this base. Those guys have been chasing for so long, and they should stop chasing now, or they may have been misled by him to other places.
But what he never expected was that before he could celebrate for himself, he saw the King of Huai'an who had killed a thousand people.
Xikui felt guilty and very scared at the same time. Even though he is a great wizard, he is really an auxiliary wizard.
It's okay if you let him steal something, but if you let him fight against the powerful King of Huai'an, it will only lead to death.
A sharp shout came from behind, and Xikui knew very clearly that she had been discovered. Now he has no choice but to escape, and there is no other way to survive.
What? As long as he obediently surrenders his personal space, his life can be spared.
No, no, no, Xikui doesn't believe such nonsense. Politicians can't be trusted even a word of it. He believed such words back then, so he was tricked by the Taiyuan Li family.
Zhou Baoer looked at the figure in front and sighed helplessly.
Doesn't this great witch know that ordinary people can't escape at the same speed
She jumped off the horse, easily caught the great witch, and said with a terrifying smile.
"You run away, let me see how you run away?"
Xikui grabbed her neck and shivered, wishing she could find a hole to burrow into.
Oh my god, he was caught all at once. What to do now, he really has no experience.
Zhou Baoer dragged Xi Kui to a restaurant with a smile on his face as the people around him looked at her with horror.
"Waiter, bring some signature dishes over."
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
A waiter raised the handkerchief and immediately went down to do the work.
Zhou Baoer glanced at the other party and felt a little surprised.
A waiter in this restaurant is actually a master, a not-so-ordinary master.
At this time, Zhou Baoer was not in a hurry to get back his personal space, but asked with great interest.
"Tell me, how did you steal my portable space? I remember that my portable space was an illusion and there was no way to take it away."
Xikui was trembling, burying her head in the soil like an ostrich, not daring to say a word.
