And after Feng Yong left, in the mansion.

Li Changxing's eyes were slightly closed, and his fingers tapped rhythmically on the precious water dragon wood table, as if he was thinking about something.

Finally, as if he had decided something, he opened his eyes and whispered to the empty hall in front of him.

"shadow!"

As the voice fell, a figure in black clothes with only eyes exposed appeared in the hall.

"Please order."

The figure knelt on one knee and said respectfully.

"Take someone to follow Feng Yong to the mine, and after catching the thing in the water, the rest of the people including Feng Yong will not stay." Li Changxing said indifferently.

"Yes." After saying that, the figure has disappeared.

After another half hour, the candles in the hall were suddenly extinguished, and an old sigh sounded from the hall.

"Changxing, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Do I still have to choose!" Li Changxing was hidden in the darkness, his expression could not be seen clearly, only a deep voice sounded.

"If people in the government find out, the entire Li family will fall into a situation of eternal doom, have you really thought about it?" The old voice sighed again and spoke slowly.

"Never again? If it goes on like this, the Li family will really be forever. Instead of falling like this, it's better to give it a go. If you become the Li family, not only will you be fine, but you will be able to rise to the next level."

"Also, don't you want to go any further, or do you want to continue being half-human, half-ghost?"

Li Changxing spoke with a hint of madness in his voice, and said slowly word by word.

"It's time to choose, my father."

The old voice fell into silence, and there was only dead darkness around.

After an unknown amount of time, the old voice sounded again.

"In that case, then—let's go and do it."

After the voice fell, the candle that had been extinguished was slowly ignited again.

The darkness recedes, and the light returns.

Li Changxing sat in the hall, his face was calm and indifferent, but the corners of his mouth were slowly raised.

A crazy smile resounded through it.

*

The next day.

The sky is bright.

A group of guards stood in the martial arts arena early.

Bai Lu and Gao Chong stood in front of the team.

"Starting today, you will begin to perform your duties as guards. The area we are responsible for is the medicine field in the outer city. Your duty is to be responsible for the safety and inspection of the medicine field."

Standing on the high platform, Zhang Hu was solemnly preaching to the crowd.

At this time, two figures in blue clothes walked in quickly outside the martial arts arena.

The figure entered the arena without saying much, and went directly to the high platform.

"Are you Coach Zhang here?"

The two looked at Zhang Hu, although his words were polite, but his attitude was rather arrogant.

"Exactly, I don't know what's the matter with you two?"

Zhang Hu glanced at the two, frowned slightly and said in a low voice.

"We are Feng Gongfu's subordinates in the Inner City Mansion, and we have received an order from the Patriarch to dispatch a group of guards to you."

The two of them were talking, and took out a stamp from their arms with a big Feng character engraved on it.

Seeing this, Zhang Hu immediately bowed with arms folded.

"It turned out to be Feng's colleague in the inner city. Zhang is being polite."

"You're welcome." The two waved their hands and looked at the egrets in the audience.

"Is this the group of guards? Come with me now!"

Hearing this, everyone in the audience looked at each other with some hesitation.

Seeing this, Zhang Hu took a step forward.

"Okay, since there is an order from the house, you can go with the two adults, and don't embarrass me."

"Okay, stop talking so much nonsense, time is urgent, now hurry up and join me outside the city."

The two showed impatience, and urged everyone to shout.

In this way, Bai Lu and his party followed the two of them without knowing why.

When the group arrived outside the city, they found a team of dozens of people waiting outside.

Looking at the appearance of the other party, it is obvious that they are guards from several other courtyards.

Especially in front of the team there are more than a dozen tall and strong men in blue clothes with sharp waists and sharp blades.

These men are all vigorous and bloody, and each of them is a warrior who has entered the early stage of Tongli.

I also thought of the few people I saw on the street yesterday.

Egret couldn't help frowning.

So many people were dispatched at once, and there were so many elites, it was obvious that something had happened.

Soon the crowd parted, and a bearded man riding a tall horse walked out slowly.

Seeing this person, Egret couldn't help shrinking his eyes slightly, only feeling a sense of oppression emanating from him.

Obviously, the strength is above him at this time, and he is definitely a proper pulse condensing warrior.

And it seems that compared to the old woman named Zhang Po who was behind Li Ziyi, the second lady of the Li family, she was stronger.

Apparently the bearded man in front of him might also be a strong man in the Pulse Condensation Realm.

Seeing that even the experts at the Pulse Condensation Realm were mobilized, Bailu became more and more sure of his guess.

"It seems that this trip is not easy."

Thinking of Bailu in my heart, I couldn't help becoming more cautious.

After the beard came, everyone started to move forward.

Just then, two white horses caught up.

The leader is a pretty woman, but it is the third lady of the Li family, Li Ziyi.

And the other rider behind him is the old woman called Zhang Po.

"Uncle Feng, wait for me!"

Li Ziyi caught up with the team and shouted to the bearded man ahead.

"Miss San!?" Seeing Li Ziyi, the bearded man couldn't help frowning.

I said badly in my heart.

It can be said to be a headache for everyone in the mansion.

But he is the heir of the Patriarch, and he is quite favored by the Patriarch on weekdays.

Coupled with his extraordinary talent, let alone in Li's mansion, even among the many dignitaries in the inner city, he is also like a bully.

A little ancestor who can't be beaten or scolded.

"Miss San, what are you doing here!? Mr. Feng has something important to do, you should go back home quickly, don't let the master worry."

Feng Yong had no choice but to persuasion out of sullen face.

"Uncle Feng, of course I'm here to help you. You can rest assured that nothing will happen if Mrs. Zhang follows you. You can rest assured that I will follow you." Full of joy.

"Sure enough!" Feng Yong said inwardly, and persuaded again on his face.

It's just that Li Ziyi seemed determined to follow, and was unmoved at all, no matter how Feng Yong tried to persuade him, he just responded with a smile.

After grinding for a while, Feng Yong could only sigh, his face full of helplessness.

"In this case, Miss San, you should follow behind the team. Miss Zhang Po, please be more considerate."

The old woman just nodded in response.

"Hee hee—thank you, Uncle Feng." Li Ziyi was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Immediately turned the horse's head and went to the rear of the team, Zhang Po naturally followed closely behind.

Watching the two of them leave, Feng Yong was a little worried, and immediately ordered to a close friend beside him.

"Ma Ping, take a few elites to the back to take care of the third lady. If something happens to the third lady, I will ask you."

"Yes." A 30-year-old square-faced man answered.

After getting the order, Dang even ordered a few soldiers to follow.

After the episode, the team moved on.

It was not until several miles away that someone distributed weapons to Bailu and others.

The weapon is a bladed steel knife, which looks quite sharp.

Many people are quite surprised to hold it in their hands.

Although they have been guards for some time, they still have little contact with weapons.

Firstly, it was because they practiced skill with their hands, and secondly, the cost of weapons was not low.

So holding it in my hand now is a bit of a fondness for it.

Sun Dachui kept playing with the steel knife in his hand, his face was full of excitement.

"Brother Bai, what do you think we are going to even issue a knife. This knife is worth a lot of money at first glance. I guess it costs five taels, not seven taels of silver."

Bailu wrapped the steel knife with a cloth and carried it on his back, and said in a deep voice.

"Give out weapons and deploy so many people, what do you think you can do!"

Hearing Bai Lu's words, Sun Dachui was taken aback for a moment, and soon he seemed to understand something, and the joy on his face disappeared immediately.

"Do you want us to kill people?"

He said with a trembling voice.

Egret shook his head slightly.

"I don't know, but it won't be a good job after all. It's always right to be careful along the way."

After listening, Sun Dachui's face was a little cloudy, although he knew that as a guard, he would inevitably have such an experience in the future.

But when we get close, it would be a lie to say that we are not nervous or afraid.

He glanced at the calm egret, and the tension in his heart dissipated a little.

"Brother Bai is still here. Brother Bai is the strongest among us. If you follow him, nothing will happen."

Thinking in his heart, he quickened his steps and followed the footsteps of the egret in front of him.

The egret did not refuse.

He didn't mind protecting Sun Dachui a bit.

Of course, the premise is that it is within the scope of ability.

If things cannot be done, it can only be their own destiny.
