Chapter 224: Appointments
When Tian Xian appeared at the door of the hut, other people who had been waiting outside for a long time suddenly surrounded him and asked about Gu Li's situation.
"Come out. Tian Xian stepped out of the door, turned around and pulled Guli out.
Seeing Gu Li, who was safe and sound, but with a slight flush on her face, everyone was stunned at first, and then looked strange.
"You, are you okay?"
"It seems...... There were no injuries. ”
"Is it cured?"
"Didn't you do anything to this stinky little ghost? I seem to have heard a fight just now. ”
......
In the face of everyone's messy inquiries, Gu Li was a little confused about how to answer, remembering that she had repeatedly lost her temper in it just now, and she had really been done by Tianxian, and she couldn't help but panic in her heart.
In order to hide her uneasiness, Gu Li loudly interrupted everyone's words, "Thank you, thank you! I'm sorry to worry everyone, but, but I'm fine, you see I'm not okay now?"
Gu Ligan laughed twice, and then arched her arms, as if to show off her strong biceps muscles.
Stupid, it's so unnatural...... Tianxian shook his head again and again.
Regarding the current situation of Gu Li's body, Tian Xian decided to keep it a secret for the time being, although everyone knows that it is nothing, but since Gu Li herself cares about this very much, then it is okay to satisfy her little self-protection for the time being, of course, the problem to be faced in this way is how to explain her fatal injury in the blink of an eye.
"It doesn't seem like a problem. Xiang made a judgment very earnestly, and Gu Li's face was ruddy. The body movements are natural, and it doesn't look like an injury no matter how you look at it.
"Yes...... It's a little strange that the fatal wound healed so quickly. Dolma was very skeptical.
"Hah...... Aha, ahaha!" Gu Li said, "Of course, thanks to this guy, I didn't expect to heal so quickly, aha...... Hahaha!"
"It's really a little strange......" Dolma moved back and forth between Tianxian and Guli with a suspicious gaze.
"However, as long as you really recover, then no matter what, isn't it okay?" Arion walked up, still looking at Guli with that kind of expression. "Ah~~ my goddess. I've been praying for you, thankful that the damned gods heard my prayer and sent you back to me, so now please listen to the new song I have composed for you......"
"Bang!" Guli's leather boots were imprinted on Arion's face.
The crowd looked at Arion, who had fainted backwards. One thing was certain in my heart: Gu Li seemed to be truly fully recovered......
This trip to the desert was met with many dangers. But in the end, all of them were saved. And they also got the treasures, which can be regarded as a great joy for all, and in the evening Tianxian and the group held a small celebration.
A little dry food. Some clear water, Gu Li ran into the desert and caught a lizard very strongly, but it seems that everyone has no appetite for that, but the fact that Gu Li has recovered is completely recognized by everyone.
The fire is lit and everyone sits around, and this is a small celebration.
"It seems that since we started in the Divine Domain, we haven't sat down and eaten so easily. Dolma nibbled on the hard dry food, but he didn't feel unpalatable at all.
"It's hard to get around. Vero said cooperatively.
"If only it were a little tasty. Guli took her roasted lizard and tried to dangle it in front of everyone's eyes, but even Xiang didn't seem to be interested in it.
"What do we do next?" Arion asked, with a practical question.
Dolma glared at Arion very unceremoniously, "Let's rest today, don't mention these troublesome things!"
"......"
"Huh?" Dolma stared at him menacingly, and Arion blinked and immediately closed his mouth.
"Speaking of which, it was indeed better to discuss this matter earlier. Tian Xian sat on the Great Sword of the Desolate Dust and said to Zhuoma with a smile, "The army of the Sand King may arrive tomorrow, and we should prepare early." ”
Dolma pouted, "What other good way can this be, if you don't want to leave these refugees alone, then activate the Spirit Scattering Circle and confront them, and we have the Great Sword of Dust in our hands, so we are qualified to negotiate with the Sand King." ”
After thinking about it again, Zhuoma was a little discouraged, "But in the end, we should lose, after all, there are only a few of us, but the Sand King has hundreds of thousands of troops." ”
Glancing at the surrounding refugees who were still trying to strengthen the parapet and quickly build their houses, Dolma sighed in a low voice, "If we abandon them, we can walk away, with Little Ash here, we may never see the Sand King again in our lives." ”
Tianxian smiled indifferently and shook his head, "Then what's the point of what we did before?"
Xiang straightened up and said loudly: "If it is to protect these innocent people, the flash wave knife in Xiao Sheng's hand is at your disposal!"
"Hmm...... Even if personal reasons aside, I don't think we should leave these people behind. Arion shook his head slowly, "Since Norma asked us to travel to the continent to find opportunities, the ultimate purpose is to fight against those gods, and furthermore, to redeem us human beings, if we abandon these people, maybe we don't need to continue traveling." ”
"I thought so too. Tu Ge made a voice at this time, as a foreigner, Tu Ge's voice was even more firm than Arion, "I led my people to venture to the human continent to find a human who can bring a safe and stable life to my hometown and my people, I hope that this human race not only has great strength, but also has the courage that ordinary people do not have, otherwise, there is no way for such a person to convince my people." ”
Staring at Tianxian, Tu Ge showed a scrutinizing gaze for the first time, "The reason why I left my people behind and stayed by your side is not all because I was ostracized by my people, and even so, I also hope that I can do something for my people, at least I want to witness with my own eyes what kind of hope I want to bring back to my people." From the ancient city of Thunder to here, you have surprised and admired me, and I hope it will be the same this time. ”
"Thank you for the affirmation. Tianxian nodded to Tu Ge, "I didn't expect you to be treated like that by them, and you still think about them." ”
Tu Ge's face, which had never had much expression, showed a bit of helplessness: "Because I understand that there is no place for us to live among the human race, and my sister and I will still end up in the lion tribe of the Eastern Kingdom, I must go back, and go back with the hope of convincing everyone, I ......"
"I may be unlucky. But...... My sister is innocent. Tu Ge unconsciously clenched his wide palm.
Only when mentioning his own sister. This powerful alien warrior will reveal a little tenderness in his eyes that hide the fierce light.
Tian Xian took out the Desert Dust Sword from under his buttocks, stuck it directly into the fire, and said easily: "The trouble on the Sand King's side will always be solved, you see that we have already obtained this sword now." That is the condition under which we negotiate. And since you can come back from the Divine Domain. I think the rest of the difficulties will be overcome. ”
Vero thought about it carefully and said, "I think our biggest bargaining chip this time is this Wasteland Greatsword, make good use of this." It's the key to fending off the Sand King's attack here. ”
Everyone nodded one after another, in fact, apart from this sword, now facing the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Sand King, this small place really has no advantages at all.
"Someone approaching!!"
Suddenly, an early warning sounded from the sentry set up on the parapet wall.
"So fast!" Tian Xian was taken aback, but then found that the warning was not a sentry in the direction of the desert, but a sentry facing the side of the Longyuan Empire.
Outside the parapet there was the sound of horses' hooves, as if many knights were hurrying closer.
Tu Ge's eyes showed a fierce light, and his ears twitched twice, "No more, no less, exactly thirty horses, and there are no reinforcements behind." ”
There are only thirty people? Tianxian was full of doubts, and pulled up the big sword of the desolate dust, "Let's go and see!"
Soon the parapet wall was crowded with refugees with nervous faces, and now they didn't have much nervousness about being attacked by the Sand King, but they had an instinctive fear of the soldiers of the Longyuan Empire.
Outside the parapet, thirty knights had stopped there, the leader of them was dressed in a rather ornate costume, and did not look like a man in the army, but he was followed by a sturdy soldier.
When I went to the parapet and looked at it, I recognized at a glance that those soldiers were wolf fangs, although there was no flag, but each soldier had a wolf head on his chest.
Wolf Tooth Guard...... Tian Xian touched his chin, and felt a little difficult in his heart.
Since the wolf fang guard has chased here, it means that the Longyuan Empire has a thorough understanding of its whereabouts, this is a big trouble, and then all forces will come one after another.
"You guys came from afar, I don't know what it's for?" Tian Xian asked a little strangely, are these guys here to crusade against themselves, but only thirty people are too few, and they directly expose their whereabouts.
The knight under the parapet took out a sealed bamboo tube from his bosom and shouted: "By the emperor's order, I have come to announce the order!
There was an uproar on the parapet wall suddenly, and the Great Emperor Longyuan actually sent someone here to announce the order! And it was alone to Tianxian alone, and he didn't know what the order was.
"You can't go, be careful it's a conspiracy!" Gu Li immediately stopped, and at the same time shouted to the knight, "Tianxian is not a citizen of the Longyuan Empire, if the emperor has any words, you can read it directly." ”
The knight suddenly looked angry, and shouted loudly: "On the territory of my Longyuan Empire, you are still so presumptuous!"
Gu Li snorted, "Outside this parapet can barely be regarded as the territory of the Longyuan Empire, but inside, it has nothing to do with you, and you are stepping on the land of the Ranjie, when will the Longyuan Empire admit that the Ranjie is also the land of the Empire?"
The knight looked angry, but what Gu Li said was indeed the truth, and now Tianxian is located in the position surrounded by the parapet, but the real meaning of the borderless land is neither the Longyuan Empire nor the Chaojie, and the Shalit Empire has not yet classified this place as their transit, so it can be said that now Tianxian and his party are considered the Earth Emperor.
"Forget it, it's okay for me to go and listen, you guys are waiting for me here. Tianxian suddenly turned around and left.
Gu Li grabbed Tian Xian violently, "Are you crazy, they are enemies!"
"The enemy won't just send such a few people, and even if it's an enemy, can you still watch them take me away?" Tianxian gently pushed Gu Li's hand away and winked at her again. "In case those guys are going to work against me, you rush down and snatch me back. ”
"You ......" Gu Li's face was flushed with anger, but Tianxian had already walked down with a smile.
There is a small door on the side of the parapet that can only be opened from the inside, and there are many people who are strictly guarded, Tian Xian came out of the small door, stood firmly in front of the knight, and clenched his fists slightly: "I don't know what the emperor commands." ”
The knight looked up and down for a few moments, and looked at the young man in front of him, who was obviously not very old and a little thin, but who was carrying a large sword of astonishing length on his back. I couldn't help but wonder for a moment. "You're just idle?"
"It's like a fake. Tian Xian looked at the knight with harmless eyes, "My wanted warrant was issued by your Wolf Tooth Army, you should know me." ”
The knight's face was a little ugly, and then he really found a wanted warrant on his body. Repeatedly compared the faces of Tianxian. That's when the wanted warrant was put away. Holding the bamboo tube high and shouting, "Kneel down and listen to the order!"
Suddenly, the parapet fell to its knees, and almost all of the refugees knelt down. Although they fled from the Longyuan Empire, they still felt that they were the people of the Longyuan Empire no matter what they said.
And Gu Li and the others suddenly looked ugly, in this case, the negotiations between the two sides had not yet begun, and they had already lost momentum.
Tian Xian stood there, blinking, looking at the knight very innocently, "I'm sorry, don't say it's the emperor's order, even if I see the emperor's old man, I haven't knelt." ”
This sentence almost planted the knight's spirit, and he pointed at the sky with green tendons on his forehead and scolded: "Bold! The emperor's will is in front, and you actually ...... it."
Tian Xian interrupted the knight's words, and at the same time patted the dust on his body and said: "As we said just now, I am not a citizen of the Longyuan Empire, and I am not subject to the control of the Longyuan Emperor, and I have an equal dialogue with the Emperor's father in the Thunder Ancient City, you are a small herald, there is no need to show off your power to me, if you don't want to read the order, then go back early." ”
The refugees on the parapet suddenly began to break out in a cold sweat on their heads, and Gu Li and their group naturally laughed and followed suit.
"Let's go back without saying anything!"
"This is not the territory of the Dragon Yuan Empire. ”
"The shelf is more powerful than the Emperor......"
The knight's face was the color of pig's liver, but this time he had been ordered by special order, and he was specially told not to cause trouble, if he went back like this, then his head would probably be lost......
Staring at Tian Xian fiercely, the knight only opened the sealed bamboo tube and took out the pale yellow royal dossier from it: "Tian Xian obeys!"
"Listen!" Tian Xian hurriedly responded, and this sentence made the knight half dead.
Gritting his teeth, the knight read aloud: "By the order of the Great Emperor, I hereby declare: Tianxian, although he is not a citizen of Longyuan, but he assisted the Great Elder to make a breakthrough in the investigation of the Divine Domain, and he was able to sweep away the chaotic streets and chaos later, and he was credited to the Empire.
"Huh"
The knight rolled the order back into a roll, stretched it forward, and said with a dark face, "Thank you for the Emperor's grace!"
There was a sound of inhaling cold air on the parapet wall, Gu Li and the others were particularly stunned, no one thought that at this time, Emperor Longyuan would actually send such an order, Tianxian made a mess of the Thunder Ancient City, and then sneaked away, this incident was "not to blame in the past" and passed by lightly, and the robbery of the Seven Princesses was not mentioned!
It's almost like a conspiracy!
Tianxian's face bloomed with joy, and he immediately stepped forward with a flattering face, rubbed his hands to take the order, and said to the knight with a smile and a friendly voice: "You have worked hard for a long time, although I don't have anything to eat and drink here, but you might as well go in and sit, rest your feet, you see that even if you are not tired, you should let the horses rest, right, if you are tired of the horses and delay the trip, even if the horses are not tired......"
Seeing that Tianxian listened to the order to seal the seal, he immediately changed his face, and the knight couldn't help but have a black cloud on his face, and he shook his horse's head hard, and shouted: "I still have official business to do, but I am not an idler like you." ”
Tianxian immediately grabbed the reins of the knight, seemingly without force, but pulled the horse's head back, and still asked with a smile: "Since the emperor wants you to come to the order, and mentioned that I am in charge of the order of the chief of foreign objects, I don't know if you have brought my token or identity certificate or other things." ”
When the knight saw that the sky was pulling his reins, he was furious in his heart, and he pulled hard, but he was stunned to find that his strength was no match for the little boy in front of him.
After several attempts were unsuccessful, the knight couldn't help but blush, he was also angry, speaking of which, this time he really brought an identity token, and immediately reached into his arms and took out a brocade cloth bag and threw it to Tianxian, "It's all here!"
"Thank you, thank you for your hard work. ”
Tianxian grabbed the bag, immediately let go of the reins, took a few steps back, and said with a smile: "You have to go to this place where birds don't to bring me the emperor's order, since you are busy with official business, I won't stay longer." ”
"Oh yes!" the knight was about to leave, when Tian Xian suddenly remembered something.
The knight turned back to his horse's head angrily, "What else do you want?"
Tian Xian smiled and said: "I just want to have a lot of labor, when I go back, if I can see His Royal Highness Jiu, please thank me for me, I am here, it is inconvenient to go back and thank him in person." ”
The knight suddenly looked surprised, looked at Tianxian again, snorted this time, turned his horse's head and left quickly, and the knight who accompanied him did not say a word, and all followed him and left quickly.
Tianxian watched them go away, with a bit of thought in his eyes, looked at the bag in his hand, and couldn't help but smile slightly, "This is really a big favor, but at this time, I can't think about it." (To be continued......)
