On a dark and windy night, the atmosphere in Tianhe County was extremely solemn.
Amidst the clatter of horse hooves, a series of horseback riding teams headed out of the city.
Zhang Wu Leng rode a tall horse and marched at the front with an expressionless face. The convoy behind him was carrying a lot of things, including stone, wood, and a large number of sundry resources. There were also many low-level people sitting there. Coolies composed of laborers from the Liwu border.
In one day's time, there will be a selection competition for young generals.
The team of the city lord's palace is here to cooperate with the garrison outside the city. It will take one day and two nights to build some facilities for the youth general selection competition.
As the youngest and most promising general in Tianhe County, Zhang Wu Leng was naturally the first choice for this task.
In addition to building infrastructure, you also have to serve as the vanguard, waiting for the arrival of the big shots from the royal capital, and notify the city when the time comes!
soon.
The large group of people came outside the city.
Stone, wood, and other debris were unloaded from the carriage.
Hundreds of Liwujing workers began to work hard according to the construction drawings.
The garrison troops originally stationed outside the city also participated in the cooperation.
Time gradually arrived in the morning.
Zhang Wu Leng, who had the highest level of cultivation, suddenly heard a rumbling whistling sound coming from the distant sky.
Buzz!
The sound was like thunder, roaring continuously.
He climbed up and looked, only to see a looming shadow getting closer and closer in the glow of the rising sun.
Zhang Wu Leng's expression suddenly changed.
Immediately afterwards.
A roar containing strong vitality spread from the hillock.
"Herald! Return to the city quickly on horseback, and notify the city lord's palace to prepare for the arrival of the king!"
"yes!"
Da Da Da!
The white horse's hooves rose and fell, and a black shadow left the hunting ground outside the city like an arrow.
…
When a roaring sound resounded over Tianhe County, many people in Tianhe County looked up and saw something they had not seen for many years!
Looking up from the street, I saw a slender thing shrouded in silver light, flying through the sky. It seemed like a huge bird flying thousands of feet high in the sky, but it flew smoothly and moved straight forward, passing through the layers of the sky. The clouds and mist dispersed the clouds, trailing behind them a bright tail that could be clearly seen even after flying far away.
Flying boat!
Wow!
Countless people ran from their homes to the streets, stopped and looked up.
The people all opened their eyes wide, opened their mouths, and pointed in the air.
"Is that a flying boat?"
"Yes, it's a flying boat! It can fly high in the sky! It's faster than the best BMW, I don't know how fast it can go!"
"Tsk tsk... Who is sitting on the flying boat?"
"Of course he is a big shot coming to the capital!"
"What big shot?"
"I heard that they are from the Qin family, the Yan family, and the Qi family in the royal capital!"
"Scare! Isn't this a member of the Seven Great Aristocratic Families? How could he come to a small place like Tianhe County..."
"Haha, I am touring various counties and cities, and I have to come to each county once. Tianhe County, which hosts the selection competition, is just one of the stops."
"Tomorrow is the selection competition for the young generals of our kingdom in Tianhe County. You must go and see it! Let's see what kind of style the big shots from the capital have!"
…
The city lord's palace received the news immediately, and various forces in Tianhe County, including the four major families, also received the exact information.
Those people who usually play an important role in Tianhe County and can cover half of the sky with just one word are all nervous and busy at this time!
Everyone wants to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with the people from the royal capital.
Duan family meeting hall!
Duan Xilai, Duan Hongxue and others all took their seats.
At the top, Duan Xilai said leisurely: "The ten children within the family have now been completely determined. Except for one more name given to Liu Meng, an old friend of Gucheng, the rest are all elites of our Duan family! In addition, Tianhe Among the thirty people in the academy, six are direct, branch or outside descendants of my Duan family, and four are friends from the isolated city. Among the fifty people in the Tianhe garrison, our Duan family holds even more. There are more than a dozen people! There is no other force with more people than our Duan family in the selection competition. When the time comes, we must establish our advantage as soon as possible!"
Then, Duan Hongxue said in a serious voice: "This time, we must first unite the forces of the Wang family and the Sun family to eradicate Qi Ying as soon as possible! Before destroying him, do not take the initiative to cause any conflicts with members of other forces."
The atmosphere became serious.
Although members of the Duan family did not go to the Colosseum in person a few days ago, the spies they sent sent back the intelligence at that time.
Qi Ying's powerful talent and strength made their determination to eradicate him even stronger!
Now it is a fight to the death. If Qi Ying rises from now on, the Duan family will probably be removed from Tianhe County in less than ten years!
After everyone dispersed.
Duan Xilai and Duan Hongxue came to the side hall.
Duan Xilai poured a cup of tea and narrowed his eyes: "Uncle, this visit from a big family in the royal capital is also an opportunity for us! Qi Ying is too strong and has a very smart mind. Even if we are outnumbered, , when the time comes, there is no certainty that it will be removed. It is better to consider... "
Duan Hongxue immediately shook her head: "No. According to the news from Tongtian County, the people coming from the Qi family this time are Qi Shun, the ninth son of the Qi family, and Qi Kaiyang, the general of the Qi family. Fifteen years ago, I met several famous generals of the Qi family. Qi Kaiyang is a selfless person. At that time, a dignitary from another city bribed him, but he cut off one of his palms in public! The other two families are also old-fashioned and stubborn people. If they are found to engage in malpractice for personal gain, our Duan family will Everyone will be affected.”
"That… "
Duan Hongxue picked up the teacup on the table, shook it slightly, pondered for a while, and said: "Let's discuss it with the city lord Gu Tailai. This old boy has been coveting the Colosseum for a long time. We, the Duan family, can give in a little bit. Some benefits are coming. Today the city lord's palace will definitely hold a dinner to welcome visitors from the royal capital, and Gu Tailai will definitely be present. We can take the opportunity to discuss with him."
"Very good."
Duan Xilai, Duan Hongxue looked at each other and nodded.
There was a fierce murderous intent on both of their faces.
…
Buzz!
In the courtyard of the Lu Mansion, Qi Ying suddenly stopped waving the Dragon-Tiger Devil-Suppressing Stick, banged the stick on the ground, and looked up into the sky.
Just in time to see the flying boat whizzing by.
"Are you here already?!"
Qi Ying narrowed his eyes and stared at the flying boat in the air.
The next moment, his expression became very excited, like a greedy child on the street who saw the old man making candy.
Then he put away the Dragon and Tiger Demon-Suppressing Stick and placed it on his right index finger in a space ring with enough space that was given to him by the Thirteenth Master after defeating the Dark Evil Golden Ape.
Whoosh!
Qi Ying's figure flashed and turned into a black shadow, passing through the courtyard of the Lu Mansion and arriving in the lobby.
At this time, Lu Feifei and Xuan Yu were chatting and laughing in their seats. They were chatting and laughing, but they didn't know what they were discussing.
"Hey, martial arts boy, why are you here?"
Lu Feifei's soft voice sounded.
Qi Ying took a deep breath: "Mrs. Lu, I want to discuss something with you!"
