Monarch of Evernight: Three or three lockdowns
bsp;The car in front braked so fast that several trucks behind were caught off guard and almost collided with each other. The mercenaries in the carriage were already drowsy, but several of them rolled out and fell heavily to the ground.
A middle-aged man dressed as a manager jumped out of the car behind him, with an angry look on his face, and yelled at the car in front: "What are you doing, are you crazy?"
The driver of the leading car leaned out of the window, his face was earth-colored, speechless, he just pointed forward.
The middle-aged steward jogged all the way to the front car, looked forward, and suddenly took a breath of air.
In the middle of the road ahead, a young man stood with his hands behind his hands, blocking the way of the entire convoy.
The steward rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not dazzled. He immediately smiled with a smile on his face, nodded and bowed: "It turns out to be Mr. Qianye! Oh, this is really good luck to see you! Why are you here? ?"
Qianye didn’t answer but asked: “Where are you going?”
Sweat immediately appeared on the steward's forehead and he said cautiously: "We, we are going to Guanlan City. The main purpose is to send these people there to guard the store, and to transport some groceries. It's not valuable, it's not valuable!"
Qianye snorted and said, "Since it's not valuable, let's keep all the groceries. Leave five people to drive, and the rest can go back."
The steward was shocked and said: "Master Qianye, why is this? You are also robbed"
It took a lot of effort for him to swallow the word "Jie Dao".
Qianye ignored it and said calmly: "Go back and tell Ji Rui and ask him to deliver my goods. Before getting the goods, don't think about goods coming in and out of Nan Qingcheng."
"But we have nothing to do with the city lord." The steward wanted to defend himself a few words, but when he came into contact with Qianye's cold eyes, he wisely took back the next words.
A moment later, a group of dejected mercenaries returned to Nan Qing City. Soon some good people recognized the identity of this group of mercenaries and came up to ask: "Why are you back so soon? Where is the car and the goods?"
A mercenary said angrily: "Qianye is outside the city, what do you think?"
The good guy obviously knew some gossip and was shocked when he heard this: "Qianye?! Even the Wolf King couldn't kill him?"
The mercenary said angrily: "I'm not blind! Can't I even recognize people?"
The good guys were submissive and stepped aside. He immediately ran off and rushed into a tavern to spread the shocking news in exchange for a few drinks.
A moment later, Ji Rui was sitting in the living room, facing the frowning head of the business firm. This trading company was quite large and ranked among the best in Nan Qingcheng, so Ji Rui had to personally come to receive it.
Through the window of the living room, what I saw was a piece of ruins. This was all the result of the Wolf King's previous attack. Ji Rui had been in a bad mood, so he didn't bother to repair it. What's more, half of the city lord's palace was reduced to ruins, and even repairing it would not take ten days and a half.
Seeing this scene outside the window, and then looking at the sad face of the principal opposite, Ji Rui's mood seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds and became particularly bad. But these merchants and mercenaries were the people who provided food and clothing for Nan Qingcheng, so Ji Rui had to put on a smile and be kind to them.
"City Master Ji! What Qianye snatched was the most valuable batch of goods in our trading company. If this batch of goods is missing, how will my trading company survive in the future?"
An unknown fire suddenly rose in Ji Rui's heart. This trading company obviously saw that the situation in Nan Qingcheng was not good and wanted to transfer inventory, so it was blocked by Qianye. How dare you complain about this kind of thing in front of yourself?
But he was an old fox after all, so he was comforted at the moment.
The head of the trading house is also very discerning. He will give up when he sees fit and carefully ask: "Lord City Lord, you have dealt with Qianye more than once. Can Qianye really fight against the Wolf King? There won't be anyone behind him. What kind of force?"
Ji Rui's smile immediately turned bitter, and he said helplessly: "Confrontation is not on the table, but the Wolf King did not catch him. As for me, I am even less capable of capturing him."
"Then, what should we do? Do you really want to hand over that batch of goods?"
This is what the business owner really wants to ask. However, even though there was only one head of the trading company in front of him, Ji Rui knew that this issue must be treated with caution. It can be said that this question was asked by the principal on behalf of all the merchants in Nanqing City.
No shop will want to do business if Qianye blocks the door like this. Although Nan Qingcheng has four sides, Qianye only has one. But these businessmen have great careers, and no one is willing to bet on the three-quarter probability. It seems that there are many opportunities, but once Qianye blocks it, it will result in losing everything.
Ji Rui actually had a hard time answering this question. Once he handed over those crossbows, his net worth immediately shrank a lot. The trading house couldn't bear the loss of inventory, how could he, Ji Rui, stand it?
However, this problem cannot be resolved unless Qianye blocks the door, which is equivalent to cutting off the roots of Nan Qingcheng. As long as it takes a few days, Ji Rui's good reputation accumulated over the years will be destroyed. The reason why Nan Qingcheng has been able to prosper for many years is because of the stable atmosphere that Ji Rui painstakingly created.
How to choose is really difficult for Ji Rui. After pondering for a long time, he said: "Inform the Wolf King in advance and see how he will deal with it."
After thinking about it carefully, the head of the trading company felt that this was also true, so he stopped entangled and said goodbye. Ji Rui immediately called Manager Liu and ordered him to immediately send people to the Ancient Totem Battle Castle to inform the Wolf King of Qianye's appearance in Nanqing City.
A moment later, a slender, high-speed aeroboat took off from Nan Qingcheng and flew quickly towards the ancient totem battle fortress. At this moment, Qianye was sitting on the top of a towering ancient pillar, looking in the direction of Nan Qingcheng. He just sneered when he saw the aerospace boat rising into the sky and flying away.
There are only a few high-speed aerostats like this in the entire East China Sea. No need to ask, this must be Ji Rui's exclusive ship, and it went to seek help from the Wolf King. In a neutral environment, the maintenance cost of high-speed aerospace crafts increases significantly. Long-distance and high-speed flights like this will cause even greater losses. It seemed that Ji Rui was really in a hurry, otherwise he wouldn't have asked for help regardless of the cost.
If the Hall of Heroes is used to intercept it from the front, Qianye can shoot down this aerostat. However, beating Ji Rui is just a means, Qianye's real purpose is to lure out the Wolf King. A big ritual can make the Wolf King feel pain, but it won't make him miserable.
At nightfall, the Wolf King sat on the throne in the hall, frowning, looking coldly at Manager Liu who came to Nan Qingcheng for help.
Under the Wolf King's gaze, manager Liu had cold sweat rolling down his forehead, his face turned blue, and he could hardly stand still. The majesty of a **** general is not something that ordinary people can bear. The Wolf King is already in a bad mood at the moment, and seeing the people in Nan Qingcheng brings back unpleasant memories. How can he give him a good look?
Mr. Liu was only halfway through his words when the Wolf King stood up and the fine iron seat under him instantly twisted and deformed, which showed how furious he was at this moment.
"What did you say?! Qianye appeared in Nan Qingcheng again, was it yesterday!?"
"Yes, yes." Manager Liu expected that the Wolf King would be angry, but he did not expect that the Wolf King would be so angry.
The Wolf King laughed wildly, stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the air, and Manager Liu immediately flew into his hand involuntarily and was strangled by the neck.
The tips of their noses almost touched each other, and the Wolf King said word by word: "Are you sure, that's Qianye? You should know what will happen to those who dare to deceive me!"
Although Manager Liu's body trembled instinctively, he still managed to remain calm and said cautiously: "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, either. But this is what the city lord said, and it can't be wrong."
The Wolf King's anger subsided slightly. Ji Rui's strength is only one step away from that of a divine general, so you can never be wrong about him as an individual.
In the battle fort hall, several werewolf warriors quietly exchanged glances, each feeling a little confused and surprised. When Qianye attacked and killed the high priest the night before, they all knew that there were still people present, and even watched Qianye jump into the East China Sea with their own eyes. At that time, they had the same idea as the Wolf King, that is, Qianye would definitely die, and that was the end of the matter.
But no one expected that Qianye would appear again in Nan Qingcheng, thousands of miles away. Counting the time, it seemed that Qianye appeared outside Nanqing City a few hours after he fell into the water. At this time, even if these warriors run with all their strength, they cannot reach Nan Qingcheng.
The Wolf King slowly let go and let Manager Liu fall to the ground. His eyes fell on a werewolf with long dark red hair in the hall, and said: "Bloodmane, go with him and take a look, and bring my personal guards with you."
"Don't worry, Warchief."
Bloodmane is quite arrogant. Even when facing the Wolf King, he only half-bows his body, which is regarded as a salute. An imperceptible chill flashed through the Wolf King's eyes, and he didn't care about Bloodmane's rudeness.
Although the Wolf King did not invite him to take action in person, he did invite Bloodmane, so he could still handle it. As a powerful Marquis, Bloodmane is one of the strongest people in the tribe besides the Wolf King, and has a fierce reputation.
Manager Liu was so anxious that he urged Xuemane on the road after receiving the Wolf King's order. Xuemane was happy, so he took fifty of the Wolf King's guards and boarded the high-speed aeroboat and rushed to Nanqing. He had never faced Qianye head-on, so he was quite dissatisfied and wanted to have a good fight with this opponent.
At this moment Qianye is still standing on the top of the stone pillar. Under the stone pillars, the number of parked trucks increased from five to eleven. After another convoy was intercepted, no more convoys came in and out of Nan Qingcheng, and all the merchants gave up the idea of escaping.
On the past day, the entire Nan Qingcheng was completely silent, and many businesses simply closed their doors.
Qianye is not in a hurry. Ji Rui has not appeared until now, which shows that the old fox feels that he still has a trump card. His trump card is nothing more than the Wolf King. Qianye really wants to know whether the Wolf King will personally deal with him this time.
The effect of the original spear falling on a strong person above the general has not been tried before. But the famous gun that Anduya had high hopes for should not be too bad.
Qianye waited patiently, practicing Yaopian whenever he had nothing to do, grinding and condensing the force bit by bit. In contrast, Ji Rui is the one who can't wait any longer. Nan Qingcheng was blocked for one more day, which resulted in heavy losses. Not to mention the loss of reputation is immeasurable.
At this time, an airship appeared at the end of the sky. It flew close quickly, entered the sky above Nan Qing City, and landed directly in the city lord's palace.
Qianye slowly collected the articles and stood up. After waiting for so long, I finally got the news. He jumped off the stone pillar and ran towards Nan Qingcheng.
