Shortly after taking the fork in the road, Cheng Qiao issued an order to temporarily stop advancing, and the entire team stopped.

Under the moonlit night, Cheng Qiao got off the carriage and walked slowly forward. His subordinates followed the order and brought Situ Wanli over.

Situ Wanli was already injured, and was jolted on the horse by the trap killer. His face was pale and his spirit was a little listless.

Cheng Qiao waved his hand, and the two snare killers responsible for escorting Situ Wanli untied Situ Wanli, and then walked to both sides of the road to be on guard.

Situ Wanli felt a little confused. What did this mean?

Although I felt strange, I could only follow Cheng Qiao for a walk on the wilderness road, blowing the cold wind, and not daring to have the slightest idea of ​​escaping.

According to the previously disclosed handling method, although you will lose your status, you can always save your life. If you run away, you will probably be killed on the spot!

After walking for tens of meters, Cheng Qiao stopped. Situ Wanli stopped quickly and lowered his head respectfully.

"Keep your head up."

Hearing this, Situ Wanli could only raise his head cautiously, with a harmless smile on his face. However, when he saw Cheng Qiao's face, his expression changed. Why did his appearance change?

Human skin mask?

"Do you want to survive?" Cheng Qiao said with a dull expression.

"Of course I do." Situ Wanli said cautiously.

"It's best that I tell you tomorrow. What I said before won't count."

"If you want to survive, you can only choose to take refuge."

Situ Wanli's expression changed after hearing this. Is this asking him to become a spy for the farmer?

"You, the farmer's Qianlong Hall master, don't seem to be doing very well. You don't even know me?"

This prince?

Situ Wanli was shocked when he heard this. He couldn't help but look at Cheng Qiao's appearance carefully. A name gradually appeared in his mind, and he said with shock on his face: "Yonghou?"

"You are quite knowledgeable and can recognize me."

Situ Wanli smiled bitterly in his heart, how could he not recognize him?

The farmer has suffered such a big loss before, and he is a famous figure in the world. As the master of Qianlong Hall, it would be too ignorant to know what you are like.

"If I fall into the hands of the Marquis, I will not be unjust."

Situ Wanli cupped his fists and saluted, and his self-deprecating words contained a layer of flattery.

"Be loyal to Luo Weng, be loyal to me, and be loyal to the Qin State. I promise to support you to become the leader of the Siyue Hall. If you have made enough contributions, it is not impossible to support you to become the leader of the heroes."

"When Qin conquers the world, you will be indispensable for its glory and wealth."

"What choice?"

Choice? Does he still have a choice?

Either life or death, it seems like there is a choice, but in fact there is only one way, unless he wants to die.

"The Marquis personally promised that if you are stubborn and unresponsive, you will be too disrespectful to praise me. I am willing to change the family."

Situ Wanli's choice was not beyond Cheng Qiao's expectation. Most people in the world are afraid of death.

"Very good. He is a smart man. I like smart people."

"The general trend of the world is vast. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. You will have a bright future."

"Isn't this light that I owe to the gift of the sun of Great Qin?"

"Haha, it's a good thing that you have this awareness." Cheng Qiao chuckled, "It's getting late, you can go back to Qianlong Hall."

Just let him go back that simple?

Don’t you need to pay a certificate of registration or control him in some way?

Situ Wanli was a little confused at first, but he soon figured it out.

They don't bother to use any means, they don't take themselves too seriously at all, they are willing to do the best, but if they don't want to do it, they just send someone to kill them.

My own importance is not as high as I thought. At least for the time being, I am still dispensable and the icing on the cake.

"How to deal with the following matters, you don't need me to teach you, right?"

"I don't dare to trouble Lord Marquis, my subordinates can handle it."

"Just go back and someone will contact you later."

"Come here, send a horse."

"My subordinate understands, Lord Marquis, take care."

Obviously, Situ Wanli entered the role quickly and did not forget to express his loyalty in a caring way.

Soon, the Snare Killer sent a horse, and Situ Wanli rode on it and quickly disappeared into the night...

For a gambler like Situ Wanli, there is no need to use the Five Thunder Control Seal. As long as you make him think that you are always the one with the higher winning rate, he will never betray you.

After dealing with Situ Wanli, Cheng Qiao returned to the carriage and the team resumed their journey.

Near midnight, I returned to a villa about twenty miles south of Nanyang City. The villa was called Qingping Villa. Its scale was no worse than Jade Tiger's Lanxiu Villa and Jade Villa. It was purchased from the nobles of Xinzheng.

After returning to the villa, Cheng Qiao was not in a hurry to rest, but went to see Touman, intending to settle tonight's matters at once.

There are special cells inside the villa, which were expanded from the original ones. This shows that the previous owner of the villa was definitely not a good person.

In the interrogation room outside the cell, the Snare Killer brought Touman in and tied him to a wooden frame, and then left the interrogation room.

Cheng Qiao turned around and revealed his true face. Tou Man was a little surprised when he saw this, but his reaction was not big. It was obvious that he did not recognize Cheng Qiao.

"Let me introduce myself, I am Ying Chengqiao." Cheng Qiao put his hands behind his back and said with an indifferent expression.

Touman just didn't know Cheng Qiao's appearance, but Cheng Qiao definitely knew it. The strong always attracted people's attention, not only the six countries of Shandong paid attention to Qin, but also the grasslands outside the Great Wall.

Although Qin, Zhao, and Yan could not defeat each other, the degree of brutality was still different.

The muscles on Touman's rough face twitched, and he was very shocked. He looked at Cheng Qiao carefully with his eyes as wide as copper bells. He felt that his clothes and temperament really looked like a royal noble, but he didn't completely believe it in his heart.

"What evidence do you have?"

"Believe it or not, do I need to provide any evidence to a prisoner?"

Hearing this, Touman became more convinced. This strong style was just like Qin's style. If you really wanted to show him any evidence, it would definitely be false.

"That makes sense, regardless of whether it's true or not, your purpose here is..."

"Want to die or live?"

"Your Excellency, you are joking. Who wants to die unless it is absolutely necessary?"

"If you want to survive, you have to do things for Qin. Are you willing?"

"Of course I do." Touman said without thinking.

Living is the most important thing now. Although many good players in the tribe died in the hands of the other party, it is nothing compared with their own lives. Only the wolves who survive can get everything back.

If he dies, everything he owns, including the tribe, will belong to others.

"In return, the Qin State will provide certain material support to your tribe. If you have made enough contributions, the Qin State can support you to become the new Wolf King."

"As far as I know, this generation of wolf kings only has two daughters and no sons."

"Although the rule on your grasslands is that the strong are respected, as long as they are strong enough, even a woman can still become the Wolf King, but obviously the combined power of the Wolf King and the Wolf King's daughter cannot reach that level."

"On the contrary, the leader of the big tribe under the Wolf King has a better chance of becoming the Wolf King, and you are one of the leaders of the big tribe of the Wolf Tribe. Although you are not the strongest, you are ranked third at most."

Touman slowly digested Cheng Qiao's words, and became more and more convinced of Cheng Qiao's identity. It was impossible for ordinary people to find out so clearly what happened on the grassland.

"Without external support, you may have to spend a lot of time to become the Wolf King, and you may not be successful."

"On the grassland, there are always winners and losers. The winner takes all. Once you don't succeed, no one will know the consequences better than you."

"The Marquis is right, so I am willing to be loyal to the Marquis and submit to Qin."

"The fact that you can figure it out so quickly means that I didn't choose the wrong person."

"On the day the Wolf King dies, you must hand over the Wolf King's daughter to me."

Touman's expression changed slightly. The daughter of the Wolf King was very important. Whoever could marry the eldest daughter would be considered legitimate and could justifiably command the tribe loyal to the Wolf King. This would increase his power and increase his chances of ascending to the throne of the Wolf King.

If he was handed over to Qin, wouldn't his reputation be ruined if he was discovered?

However, the current situation does not allow him to keep his head down. If he cannot survive, everything will be empty. At worst, he will be sent away secretly.

At that time, all the insiders except him will be slaughtered. In this way, even if the Qin State reveals it, he can deny it or even beat him up.

"It all depends on the Marquis." Touman said with a low eyebrow.

Cheng Qiao wanted the daughter of the Wolf King to come over. Naturally, he couldn't just do it for beauty, and he didn't want to keep it all for himself. He planned to give his sister to Ying Zheng and keep the sister for himself.

If nothing else, Hu Hai's mother is the eldest daughter of this generation of wolf kings.

In other words, the Wolf King's eldest daughter was sent to Ying Zheng's harem, and what should be his brother's is his brother's.

As for Hu Hai, what kind of waves can he make with him?

Everything is different, times have changed, but he is just one of the ordinary young men.
