After taking care of the Undead Master King, the gloomy weather actually improved a lot, the fog gradually dispersed, and a ray of sunshine shone in.
"Tongtou, call your brothers and we will open the way." Li Ling came to Tongtou's side and reminded Tongtou.
"Brother Ling, your injury is fine." Tongtou stretched his neck to see if there was anything wrong with Li Ling's left shoulder. Apart from a stain of blood, Tongtou didn't see any wounds. He touched his head in confusion.
Therefore, there was no wound. Li Ling used his miraculous power to temporarily repair the wound, but the broken bone was still not healed.
"What can I do for you, Tongtou? Please call your brother over quickly. We have to leave for Yecheng. We have been delayed a lot." Li Ling patted Tongtou on the shoulder and said.
Tongtou felt extremely honored by Li Ling's show of kindness to him. He nodded heavily and went to find his brothers, preparing to take them to Yecheng with Li Ling.
After waiting for no less than ten minutes, Tongtou finally came galloping with his brothers! Li Ling looked at the horses, nodded and said: "Let's go. We hope to reach Yecheng before dawn tomorrow."
"Brother Ling, why are you in such a hurry to go to Yecheng?" Tongtou asked strangely.
Li Ling just smiled mysteriously and said nothing.
When Tongtou saw that Li Ling didn't say anything, he didn't even ask, so he followed Li Ling and rode towards Yecheng.
After a day and a night's journey, Li Ling finally arrived at the ten-mile outskirts of Yecheng at midnight on the second day. When they arrived, Tongtou and his brothers started to act timidly, probably because they were afraid of being attacked by Yecheng's officers.
Discovered. After all, they were once deserters from Ye City.
"Brother Ling, we won't go. We were deserters from Yecheng before. If we go, we will be caught and beheaded." Tongtou made a beheading gesture.
Li Ling knew Tongtou's difficulties, so he nodded and said: "When you go back, stop robbing families and homes, dig mountains and mines, do some business, and you can also make a fortune. Doing such unethical things is not a long-term solution."
Tongtou and his brothers were immediately moved by Li Ling's kind warning and said: "Brothers, have you all listened? Brother Ling, you want us to take the right path. If I find anyone doing bad things in the future, I will
Kill him first."
"It's...Boss. It's Brother Ling." Everyone roared in the forest in unison, frightening the birds.
"Okay, you should leave quickly. It won't be good for you if you stay here for too long." Li Ling said.
"Well, let's go back." Tongtou turned his horse's head and evacuated with his brothers.
Li Ling watched the group of people disappear and headed towards Yecheng.
When we arrived at the gate of Yecheng City, we saw a city wall ten feet high. There were heavy soldiers guarding and patrolling the city wall.
The area of Yecheng is also ridiculously large. It stretches for hundreds of miles, which shows how big the scale is. This is only the scale of a city, but the scale of a country is even more amazing.
Within the gate area of Yecheng, there was a bustling crowd, and some strange mounts riding white horses and dragons entered Yecheng.
"Master Meng, you are back from hunting. What rare and exotic beasts did you catch today?" The soldier guarding the gate respectfully said to this person named Master Meng.
"There is nothing good to gain today. I only shot some pheasants and hares. Recently, there are fewer and fewer large and ferocious animals in the nearby forests. I have no interest in hunting anymore." A man said calmly from inside the carriage.
The voice was clearly that of a very angry person.
"It's Master Meng. Your martial arts are so strong that the wild beasts around you don't dare to come near. They were all frightened and fled to other mountains." The guard had a wretched face and was very pleased with Master Meng.
"Humph, what about martial arts? It's obvious that no powerful beasts will be born in the mountains and wilds here. By the way, have you posted today's gold medal?" Lord Meng said from inside the car.
"Sir Meng, the post has been posted and we are looking for talents. I hope there will be someone who suits your needs," the guard said.
"Well, I hope it won't be like last time. None of the people sent out were able to come back, causing me to lose so many black crystals." Master Meng said.
"No, this time, I will try my best to help Master Meng recruit people who are qualified for this task. I will not let you down, Master Meng." The guard said in horror.
"It's good to know. Okay, I'm tired. I have to go back and rest first." Master Meng said.
"Yes, Master Meng, please have a good rest." The guard bowed his head respectfully and sent Master Meng off.
At this moment, Li Ling just arrived and heard the conversation between the two. He knew that Lord Meng might be recruiting some more powerful practitioners to help him complete some tasks, Li Ling thought about it.
"Hey, you're not allowed in." The guard suddenly blocked Li Ling's path.
Li Ling looked at the guard with a sinister face in confusion and said, "Why can't I enter?"
"Are you from Yecheng?" the guard asked arrogantly. Just now, in front of Master Na Meng, you were really a bastard.
"Of course I am from Yecheng." Li Ling knew that answering no would be tantamount to declaring that he could not enter the city.
"Then do you have the Yecheng people's identity certificate? Show it to me." The guard stretched out his hand and asked Li Ling for the certificate.
Li Ling frowned and said, "Why should I show it to you? Moreover, my certificate happened to be at home."
"Don't do this. I've seen a lot of bandits like you who are wandering outside and want to enter the city. Hurry up and take out your ID. Otherwise, don't wander around here." The guard's face suddenly changed.
Extremely ugly and angry.
Li Ling knew that he couldn't get in like this, but he happened to remember the gold medal, and he had an idea. He came to the gate of the city, took the gold medal, and said with a smile: "I'm here to apply for the gold medal."
The guard immediately stopped Li Ling and said, "It's just you. You're so skinny. You really want to apply for the gold medal. Do you have the strength?"
Li Ling smiled and said: "Tell me what kind of strength you need to be qualified to run for this gold list."
The guard glanced at Li Ling with disdain and said: "At least, we must lift the 5,000 kilogram copper tripod on our moat bridge."
Li Ling followed the guard's eyes and looked at the bronze tripod that was as tall as a person on the bridge. He smiled slightly and said, "What's so difficult about this!"
"Hmph, don't just talk big words without practicing. If you have the ability, show it up." The guard didn't think highly of Li Ling at all and didn't even want to look at Li Ling.
Li Ling turned around, walked towards the bronze tripod, carefully looked at the shape of the tripod, and grabbed the four standing legs at the bottom of the bronze tripod.
With a shout, Li Ling moved two streams of Tao Qi to his arms. With a bang, the bronze tripod that was as tall as a person suddenly lifted off the ground and was lifted above his head by Li Ling.
When the cauldron was lifted, many Yecheng people cheered and watched.
Li Ling looked at the stunned guard and said, "Is it okay?"
"Okay... okay." The guard stuttered.
In fact, those who were originally selected for the gold list did not need to lift any cauldron at all. As long as they could fight ten people with one hand without falling, they would be eligible for selection in the first round. This cauldron was originally placed on the bridge to burn some of the city's cauldrons.
It's useless. Just now, the guard said that just to make Li Ling retreat. Unexpectedly, Li Ling actually lifted the ten-thousand-jin cauldron.
"Okay...you are really born with supernatural power." A handsome young man in gorgeous clothes walked over.
"Master Yun." The guard said respectfully.
The handsome man smiled faintly at the guard, then walked towards Li Ling and said, "Young man, put down the tripod."
Li Ling nodded and put the tripod down smoothly.
"Do you want to go to the city?" the handsome man asked.
"Yes, sir." Li Ling knew that this guy was dressed in luxurious clothes and must be a noble person in Yecheng. It would not be a disadvantage to call him "sir".
"My name is Yuntianxiao. Just call me Tianxiao. Don't call me sir." Yuntian said with a smile.
"How dare you?" Li Ling said.
"I admire you and like to get to know some capable people. That's the kind of person you are." Na Yuntian said with a smile. (To be continued...)
