"Protection fee is too unpleasant to hear. It should be a friendly mutual assistance fee." Duke Mozhu smiled and pointed out a finger.
"The life span of 100 million years is indeed a bit too long." Bai Candong said.
Duke Mozhu curled his lips: "How can Duke Xieyu's favorite granddaughter, the future owner of Wanxie City, be worth only 100 million years of life."
"What does the Duke mean?" Chu Feihuang asked with a frown.
"A favor, I want Xie Yu to owe me a favor." Duke Mo Zhu said.
"I'm afraid I can't make the decision on this." Chu Feihuang shook her head.
"You don't need to make the decision. As long as you accept my protection in Cheqian City, Xieyu will naturally owe me a favor. It's up to you to decide whether to leave or not." Duke Mozhu said confidently.
"In that case, why did the Duke come to us?" Bai Cangdong asked.
"I came to you, naturally, to let you know about the people coming from Sword King City, so that you don't leave the city casually. In addition, I also want to tell you that the Duke from Sword King City will definitely prevent Little Concubine Huang from getting the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wick.
, you must prepare in advance." Duke Mozhu said.
"Your Majesty Duke, didn't you say that you would ensure our safety in Cheqian City? Will the Duke from Sword King City still attack us at the auction?" Bai Candong frowned.
"Without my consent, he naturally wouldn't dare to take action in Cheqian City, and it would be even more impossible for him to take action at the auction. But just because he won't take action doesn't mean he won't bid. Do you think he will let you successfully get the six rights?
The wick of reincarnation?" Duke Mozhu rolled his eyes at Bai Cangdong.
"It's just a golden wick. If his price is outrageous, just give it to him." Chu Feihuang said nonchalantly.
"A golden wick, you said it was easy, didn't Xie Yu tell you? The six-path reincarnation wick is one of the most powerful wicks in the reincarnation system. A wick that can be named after reincarnation, do you really think it is just a wick?
Is it as simple as an ordinary gold wick?”
"Is there such a thing? My grandfather only said that the Six Paths of Reincarnation Lamp was useful to me, but didn't say much." Concubine Chu looked at Duke Mozhu suspiciously.
"The six-path reincarnation wick is composed of six fragments. Six kinds of gold-quality flames are required to ignite it. No one knows the abilities it possesses after igniting it. The introduction before igniting it just said that it can avoid some reincarnation-based powers.
, but the first king of light of the previous generation had lit this wick when he was a marquis. Later, when chatting with a friend, the king once said that if there was no wick of six reincarnations, he would probably have died when he was a marquis.
The bones have been buried for a long time, and it is impossible to achieve the position of king. Do you think that the wick that even the king attaches so much importance to is just an ordinary golden wick?"
"Since the Six Paths of Reincarnation wick is so precious, why would anyone put it up for auction?" Bai Cangdong asked in confusion.
Duke Mozhu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It's okay to tell you that this wick does not belong to one person. So it must be replaced with a life scale. As for who the seller is, this is a secret, I can't
Telling you, and knowing it, will only do you harm but no good. If you want to win the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wick, the only thing you can do is to prepare more life scales. Then there may be hope."
"How many life points do you think we should prepare before we can hope to win the Six Paths of Reincarnation Lamp, Your Majesty the Duke?" Chu Feihuang asked.
"You can only think about this for yourself. The Duke of Sword King City takes action, even if it is just to prevent you from getting the Six Paths of Reincarnation Lamp Wick, he will definitely not do it casually. The price will be very high at that time. Can he get it?
It depends on your luck. If there are not many life points left on the Duke's body, you still have a glimmer of hope. If there are still a lot of life points on the Duke's body, you have no chance at all. Anyway, prepare as much as you can.
Set the time limit for your life, and then just leave it to fate. I have said everything that needs to be said, and you can go back."
After leaving the source of light, Bai Cangdong kept frowning. He always felt that something was wrong. But he couldn't think of anything wrong.
"My Lord, it will be nice if you come back." The Qingyu Knight and others have been waiting for Chu Feihuang outside the Source of Light. Anyway, there are several knights from Bai Cangdong, but none of them have come.
"Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to wait for me at the inn?" Chu Feihuang asked.
"We were originally waiting at the inn, but when the trade fair ended, your lord has not come back yet. We were worried about your lord's safety, so we rushed over." Knight Luohua said.
Chu Feihuang was slightly moved: "Thank you for your hard work. I'm fine. Let's go back."
Bai Cangdong was envious in her heart. Although these knights of Chu Feihuang were not conquered by herself, they were extremely loyal and far more reliable than the sword and shield knights.
However, Bai Cangdong's mind was balanced for a long time when he thought of Gu Mingjing and others. Gu Mingjing and others are his real knights, and their loyalty is definitely no worse than that of Luohua Knights. It's just that their strength is temporarily weaker and it will take time.
growing up.
In fact, among the knights of Bai Candong, there are still some geniuses, such as Hua Buyu and Gui Gu. They are both geniuses among geniuses. As long as they are given sufficient resources and time, their future achievements will definitely not be astonishing.
A messenger from the city.
"Time!" Bai Candong sighed secretly. What he and his knights lack most now is time. As long as they are given a few hundred more years, even if they face the king, they may not be incapable of fighting.
Back at the inn, Chu Feihuang told her about her meeting with Duke Mozhu. Knight Luohua and others frowned.
"My lord, how many life scales have you brought? If it's not enough, we have some here. Please take them and use them, my lord." Knight Luo Hua and others quickly opened their life charts and wanted to transfer the life scales to Chu Feihuang.
Chu Feihuang stopped them: "The main issue now is not the life scale, but whether the Duke of Mozhu lied to us. She said that the Duke of Sword King City is in Cheqian City, but we have never seen it and don't know.
Is there really a duke?"
"There shouldn't be any lies, right? Since Duke Mozhu doesn't want anything, what's the point of lying to us?" Qingyu Knight asked in confusion.
"You are too naive. Duke Mozhu doesn't want anything, but don't forget that we are here to buy the Six Paths of Reincarnation wick. If we buy the wick at a high price, it will not be a small sum." Bai Cangdong said.
Said aside.
"The dignified Lord of Cheqian City has a well-known reputation in the first level of light. There is no need to ruin his reputation just to deceive us of such a small life span, right?" Knight Luohua frowned.
"But we have no way to confirm that she is Duke Mozhu. I did see her portrait in my grandfather's study, but there are many people who look similar in this world, and even if she is really the person in the painting,
It doesn't mean that she is Duke Mozhu." Chu Feihuang said.
"Let's go directly to the city lord's palace and ask for help," said the Qingyu Knight.
"This is not the City of Wanxie, so how could the city lord just meet him at his request?" Bai Cangdong shook his head slightly.
"Otherwise, we just give up the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wick, and then everything will be fine," the Qingyu Knight said.
"No, the Lord came to Cheqian City this time just for the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wick. If he just gave up, wouldn't it be a waste of effort? In my opinion, we still have to work hard to get the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wick. Even if we are fooled, at most
Just losing some life points is better than losing the six-path reincarnation wick." Knight Luohua said.
Several knights were divided into two factions that refused to give in to each other. One faction felt that they should give up the wick to see the situation, while the other faction felt that they should try their best to win the Six Paths of Reincarnation wick. It didn't matter even if they suffered a loss, getting the wick was the most important thing.
"It's up to the Lord to decide." In the end, neither of the two factions could convince the other, so they handed the issue over to Chu Feihuang.
"Mask, what do you think?" Chu Feihuang did not dare to call Master Bai Candong in front of others.
"Just prepare a little more life scale and do what you can at the auction. I'll go meet Duke Mozhu tomorrow to see if I can see any clues. I always feel that something is wrong with this matter, but again
I can't tell what's wrong." Bai Cangdong thought for a while and said.
"Since you also think something is wrong, I'd better give up fighting for the Six Paths of Reincarnation Lamp Wick." Chu Feihuang said.
"It's not that simple." Bai Cangdong shook his head.
"You are really a strange person. You are the one who said something was wrong, and you are the one who refused to give up. What do you mean?" Knight Luohua and others stared at Bai Candong.
"Some things cannot be explained until they are clarified. In short, we will make plans after I meet Duke Mozhu tomorrow." Bai Cangdong said lightly.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Chu Feihuang stopped the Qingyu Knight who wanted to say something else.
Early the next morning, Bai Cangdong went to the Source of Light, but was unable to see Duke Mozhu. The shopkeeper of the Source of Light only said that the great shopkeeper had left the Source of Light for something and did not know when he would come back.
"I already told you that something is wrong. Duke Mozhu is most likely a fake. He has set up a trap to sell us the Six Paths of Reincarnation wick at a high price." After Bai Cangdong came back and told Chu Feihuang the situation, Qing Qing on the side
The Feathered Knight immediately responded.
"There are indeed some problems with this matter, why don't we just forget about it." Knight Luohua no longer insisted on letting Chu Feihuang buy the Six Paths of Reincarnation wick.
Several knights almost unanimously agreed this time, and they agreed that Chu Feihuang only needed to bid for the Six-Way Reincarnation Lamp at the normal price at the auction, and must not exceed the budget.
"Mask, what do you think?" Chu Feihuang looked at Bai Candong again.
"If it were me, I would definitely try my best to take pictures of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wick." As soon as Bai Candong said this, the Green Feather Knight and others immediately burst into an uproar. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come.
