Summary of the previous chapter: Li Yao rescued Sister Cui's younger brother and son, but then burned all the remaining children to death. In fact, all this had been expected by Ma Xiaoquan...
Wei Zhongxian gave the order, and all the scoundrels present respectfully shouted yes. Wei Zhongxian hummed, looked at Li Yao, and said: "Li Zongyu, Li Yao is also your son. Although you don't admit it, he is still with you after all.
They are related by blood, so you are a bit too harsh!"
Li Zongyu shook his head and said respectfully: "Master Wei, I don't hate you at all. This beast ruined Master Wei's hard work, so he will naturally be punished. Master Wei, is it too easy to take advantage of him like this?"
Wei Zhongxian frowned, shook his head and asked, "Then what do you want?"
Li Zongyu chuckled: "Master Wei, although this beast is my biological child, it has nothing to do with me, Li Zongyu. I think that letting him watch the gate for a month is the best punishment."
Wei Zhongxian nodded and laughed: "It doesn't matter, just do what you say!"
Li Zongyu was so happy that he kicked Li Yao and cursed: "Beast, why don't you thank Master Wei for your kindness?"
Li Yao knelt down with an expressionless face and said, "Thank you, Lord Wei, for your kindness!"
Li Zongyu proudly pulled up Li Yao, bowed respectfully to Wei Zhongxian, and left immediately.
Li Yongzhen stood next to Wei Zhongxian, shook his head and said: "This Li Yao doesn't look like Li Zongyu's illegitimate son."
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said: "Like a slave? Right?"
Li Yongzhen nodded: "It's hard for that young man. What a good martial arts champion. Hey, who can tell clearly about other people's affairs?"
...
That afternoon, Li Yao was assigned to the city gate inspection team.
Before Li Yao arrived, Li Zongyu had already "settled in". When Li Yao arrived at his post, the veteran janitors all spoke harshly to him, and someone even gave him the nickname "bastard".
Li Yao didn't say a word. Although he was furious, he held it back. He knew that these people were arranged by his father. If he did it himself, guarding the city gate would become guarding the toilets.
After exhaling, Li Yao smiled slightly and ignored those who provoked him. However, Li Yao did not intend to give up warning them.
Li Yao stretched out his hand to grab a piece of brick and squeezed it hard. There was a "bang" sound, and the brick was cracked by him.
The masonry at the city gate is no better than other masonry. Generally speaking, the masonry at the city gate is made of high-quality building materials. Not to mention pinching, even if it is knocked, it will take a little effort.
Only then can it be broken open.
Li Yao can crush bricks and stones with just one hand until they crack, which shows how terrifying his power is.
In fact, no matter how powerful Li Yao is, it is impossible for him to pinch open such a hard brick. He just has good eyesight. When selecting, he has already focused on this brick with gaps in it, and other
People only paid attention to him and did not notice that there was any problem with the masonry, so it was picked up by Li Yao.
Li Yaoliang made this move, and the guards who had previously laughed at him immediately shut up. Although everyone was calmed down by Mr. Li Li Zongyu, saying that they could mess with Li Yao as long as Li Yao dared to fight back... but
Li Yao is a human being, and he also has a temper. If someone can't hold it back, just with his previous actions, I'm afraid...
In fact, Li Yao was not much better. The scars from his father Li Zongyu's whip, and the injuries he suffered earlier had not fully healed. Due to the force he had just exerted, he suddenly exploded at this moment, causing Li Yao a lot of pain.
Almost shed tears.
Taking a breath, Li Yao held his head high, endured the severe pain all over his body, and walked away slowly.
In the corner under the city gate, Ma Xiaoquan, who had changed his appearance, had a panoramic view of the scene just now. He smiled slightly, lowered his head, turned around and blended into the crowd...
Early the next morning, Ma Xiaoquan arrived at the private house he had made an appointment with Li Yao.
Today is the day when Li Yaoyi makes friends, and Ma Xiaoquan believes that Li Yaoyi will definitely come on time.
Sure enough, not long after, Li Yao pushed open the door and walked in, followed by a seven or eight-year-old boy.
Ma Xiaoquan stared at the boy for a while, and found some similarities with Sister Cui from his appearance. Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said humbly: "Li Yao, you are very punctual and trustworthy.
!”
Li Yao patted the boy's head and said: "I brought the man, and I have done what I promised you. Now it's your turn, Ma Xiaoquan, you must help me accomplish something!"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly: "Li Yao, from now on you will give all the remaining children to..." Ma Xiaoquan did not finish his words, but he believed that Li Yao understood the meaning of his words.
Ma Xiaoquan continued: "So actually, you are no longer qualified to negotiate terms with me!"
Li Yao was a little annoyed: "Do you want to go back on your word?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "No, I don't plan to negotiate terms with you, because I have negotiated terms with you, and you and I are just interested in each other, and I don't need such an interest relationship!"
"Then what do you need?"
"It's very simple! I need a capable assistant, a good friend, and a loyal subordinate!"
"You want to win me over?" Li Yao asked with raised eyebrows.
"Hmph, even if it is, what about it, Brother Li, please think about it?"
"Why?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "It's very simple. I am now surrendering to King Xin. I have every reason to recommend you to King Xin. With King Xin's identity and status, it is not impossible to pull you away from your father. Of course, it is not impossible.
...If you want King Xin to capture you, you need to cooperate with me in a show!"
"This..." Li Yao hesitated. He was worried that if he left Li Zongyu's side, he would never find a chance to take revenge.
Ma Xiaoquan saw Li Yao's worries and comforted him: "Li Yao, you don't have to worry about not having a chance to retaliate. Of course, I know you won't kill Li Zongyu. Leave all these arrangements to me!"
Li Yao thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and nodded: "Okay, I'll tell you, what should we do?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "It's easy to talk, we..."
...
Not long after Li Yao left, Fang Yun came. Seeing the little boy standing next to Ma Xiaoquan, Fang Yun was surprised and said: "Sir, is this Sister Cui's son?"
Before Ma Xiaoquan could speak, the little boy spoke first: "I don't have a mother, I only have a sister. My sister's name is Cui Niang. Uncle, do you also know my sister?"
Fang Yun looked at the little boy in surprise and said, "Sir, this child..."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "The little guy is not afraid of us. It seems that Li Yao should have said something before coming here. Well, you can go and inform Sister Cui."
