Early the next morning, before it was dark, Li Xuan heard a sound in the carriage, so he slowly opened his eyes.
"Oh, I knew it." Li Xuan shook his head helplessly, then rubbed his eyes and walked out of the tent.
Li Xuangang walked out of the tent and took advantage of the moonlight to see a thin figure in the distance.
The thin figure also heard Li Xuan's voice, and his movements visibly stiffened.
Li Xuan had long thought that Zhu Zhuqing would not stay in his camp, so he never slept well.
"I...I will cause trouble for you here." Zhu Zhuqing mumbled something in a low voice, but Li Xuan heard it clearly.
After crying in front of Li Xuan yesterday, Zhu Zhuqing no longer knew how to face Li Xuan.
More importantly, Zhu Zhuqing also knows his identity. After all, he is a person who is married to the Xingluo royal family and the Zhu family. If he is discovered by others, Li Xuan will also be implicated, which is what Zhu Zhuqing does not want to see. matter.
"If you want to leave, I won't stop you. This is what I have prepared for you. Go to the border and find Huang Shang, and he will arrange for someone to take you back to Xingluo City." Li Xuan sighed. He said to Zhu Zhuqing in a tone of voice, and at the same time threw a soul guide ring to Zhu Zhuqing.
Li Xuan didn't want Zhu Zhuqing to leave, but he had no reason to let Zhu Zhuqing stay.
And Li Xuan didn't know why he accidentally used a soul guide ring to fill Zhu Zhuqing with several bottles of Xuanling Pills and more than 10,000 gold soul coins.
Zhu Zhuqing subconsciously took the soul guide that Li Xuan gave her, and her mind was confused for a moment.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't want to leave, but he had no reason to stay, so he couldn't stay here.
"If you have any problems, go to Ladi Canyon at any time. My token is there and they will protect you." Li Xuan sighed and continued to talk to Zhu Zhuqing.
"Thank you." Zhu Zhuqing solemnly put the ring on his finger, and then left here under the night.
After watching Zhu Zhuqing leave, Li Xuan was not in the mood to sleep. He sat by the bonfire and watched the bonfire burn, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Xuan blinked, then turned back to the tent and continued sleeping.
Li Xuan knew about Zhu Zhuqing's troubles, but Li Xuan didn't care. If nothing else, Li Xuan's talent was already excellent. What's more, Li Xuan's cultivation was tyrannical, far surpassing that of Dai Mubai.
"Master, it is right for her to leave. We are not strong enough to fight against the Star Luo Empire yet." Bai Chuan came to Li Xuan's side and said quietly.
"Uncle Bai, what should I do next?" Li Xuan frowned and asked Bai Chuan.
"Practice hard and strive to become a titled Douluo as soon as possible. Then you will have the capital to negotiate with the Star Luo Empire. As long as you are strong enough, you can even steal people from the Star Luo Empire." Bai Chuan threw wood into the bonfire. He said to Li Xuan in a relaxed tone.
"Alas... I haven't found my fourth soul ring yet. I have asked Huang Shang to search for a suitable soul ring for me." Li Xuan frowned and looked at the bonfire and said.
"Young Master will surely make your wishes come true. Will Young Master go back and rest?" Bai Chuan turned around and asked Li Xuan.
"No, it will be dawn soon, we should do our own thing." Li Xuan shook his head, and now he had no intention of sleeping.
……
Early the next morning, Bangchui woke up quietly. After a simple bite of food, the three of them set off.
Bangchui also had a general idea of what happened, so he didn’t ask any more questions.
The three of them were silent all the way, slowly marching through Us City.
The next goal of Li Xuan is to win the Min clan into his hands.
The ability of the Min clan to survive independently is relatively weak, but if they can rely on other forces, the Min clan's ability is still quite good.
Their speed is their greatest advantage, and they can serve as correspondents, responsible for maintaining the connection between Lady Canyon and the outside world.
Although Li Xuan's Eye of Kongming can also do this, the output of the Eye of Kongming is too low to achieve real communication.
So someone still needs to deliver the message.
……
Three days later, at noon.
Baichuan and his party finally arrived at the foot of Us City.
"Master, Us City has arrived, let's get off the car and rest." Bai Chuan turned his head and said respectfully to Li Xuan.
"Okay, Uncle Bai." After speaking, Li Xuan jumped out of the carriage with the mallet.
"Uncle Bai, are we going on the right track? This place looks too poor. It feels like the cities along the way are very poor. Does the Tiandou Empire care about them?" Li Xuan raised his eyebrows at Bai Chuan asked.
After leaving the Star Forest, we went to Soto City and then to Us City. All the cities along the way were very dilapidated and looked like they were in disrepair.
"Master, we just walked close to the border. How can we not be poor? The rich cities are all near Tiandou City, and the lives of ordinary civilians are not good at all." Bai Chuan smiled and shook his head.
As a former slave, Baichuan still has a say in poverty, and Baichuan also knows why.
"Master, you and Master Bangchui go into the city to rest. I will go to the city to find you later." Bai Chuan also jumped off the carriage, then nodded to Li Xuan and said, and then led Li Xuan The carriage left here and found a place to store the carriage.
Li Xuan entered the city of Us with his mallet, minding his own business.
As Li Xuan entered Us City, Li Xuan felt that Us City was actually poorer than he thought. Us City was not large in size, it was just a small city, and it was also a small city with a less prosperous economy. .
Wusi City is located on the border of the Tiandou Empire, and further north is the Far North, so the temperature here is relatively low, and because there is no trade, it is also relatively poor.
Buildings in the city It has been in disrepair, few shops are open, there are many beggars along the way, there are few pedestrians, and no one sets up stalls here.
Looking at the scenery along the way, Li Xuan thought that the probability of his success in recruiting the Min clan was much higher. The poorer this place is, the miserable the life of the Min clan will be. The easier it is to be recruited.
"Brother, this place is too poor. Do you want to give them some charity?" Bangchui asked Li Xuan in a low voice. Although Bangchui had suffered setbacks since childhood, he was kind and compassionate at heart.
"No, we can't change anything. Let's find a place to rest first, have a comfortable meal for a while, and then go do business tomorrow. If he wants to change, he can choose Some people with good moral character enter our territory, but as for those with bad moral character..." Li Xuan nodded to the stick and continued walking around Us City. After wandering around Us City for a long time, Li Xuan finally found a relatively clean and hygienic hotel to stay in and booked three rooms.
It was just spring and the weather was still a bit cool, so Li Xuan was going to make some hot pot for himself.
In addition to the weather, Li Xuan was worried about the hygienic conditions of the Us City restaurant. There was no special food in this place.
Li Xuan and Bangchui sat in front of the hot pot, waiting for Bai Chuan to come.
More than ten minutes later, Bai Chuan found the room chosen by the machine.
"Master, young master." Bai Chuan smiled at Li Xuan and Bang Chui and said.
“Everyone is here, let’s start cooking!” Li Xuan smiled, then took out his chopsticks and started eating meat and vegetables.
Li Xuan calculated the time and Bai Chuan was about to come back, and then he started to eat.
Soon the hot pot began to boil, and a rich aroma filled the whole room with the churning hot pot.
Bai Chuan also felt his appetite whetted when he saw the new things Li Xuan made, so he and Li Xuan Bangchui ate together.
"Master, Us City is poorer than I thought. In this case, it shouldn't be too difficult for the Min Clan to investigate. If I go out soon, I will be able to bring all the information about the Min Clan within two hours. Come back, this place is too poor and it’s perfect for us to work.” Bai Chuan held the bowl, stuffed a piece of mutton wrapped in mahjong into his mouth, chewed it thoroughly, and said to Li Xuan.
Shirakawa is right. Us City is not only small, but also extremely poor. It only takes a few Gintama coins to find out all the news about the Toshi clan. That's why Shirakawa said this.
"Why are you in a hurry? I came out this time to escape from work and hang out more. Besides, the Min clan should know about our arrival in Us City. Let them react and then go find us. "They." Li Xuan put a piece of mutton into his mouth and said with a smile to Bai Chuan.
"Okay, Master." Baichuan had no choice but to accept it.
Half an hour later, the three of them, Li Xuan, were full of wine and food, and each returned to his room to rest.
——
In the next two days, Li Xuan and Bai Chuan spent money in Us City to collect a large amount of information about the Min clan. After two days of hard work, the information was already very comprehensive.
Li Xuan and Bai Chuan were sitting at the table, exchanging the information they had obtained in the past two days.
"Young Master, the Min clan has been in such a miserable state. The Wuhun Palace suppressed them, the local soul master families suppressed them, and finally no one suppressed them anymore. It's a pity that the money they earn can't support their own family." Bai Chuan put down the information in his hand and shook his head helplessly.
"Yes, the main reason is that I still want to train soul masters when I don't have much money. It would be strange if the economy doesn't collapse." Li Xuan also shook his head helplessly.
It’s not a pity that the Min clan is in such a miserable state. It’s all due to their own efforts. Otherwise, with the speed characteristics of the Min clan, they wouldn’t have to live without the help of others.
Without the support from the Po clan, the situation has reached the point where there is no rice to cook.
"Master, although their family's martial arts are not very powerful in combat, they have relatively good characteristics, are extremely fast, and can do many things." Bai Chuan nodded and analyzed Li Xuan seriously.
"The family is a good family, but their clan leader..." Li Xuan likes the abilities of the Min clan very much, but Bai He is really worried about Li Xuan.
"What's wrong, young master? The leader of the Min clan, Bai He, is a powerful Contra player. Although he is old, there are few in the entire continent who can surpass him in terms of speed." Bai Chuan asked Li Xuan One sentence.
"Alas... Bai He is the biological uncle of Haotian Sect leader Tang Xiao and Haotian Douluo Tang Hao. His elbows are turned outward." Li Xuan shook his head helplessly, with many thoughts in his mind.
"This..." Bai Chuan was stunned after hearing the introduction. He did not expect that the dispute between the Min clan and the Haotian Sect was so deep.
In this case, the possibility of Bai He betraying Ladi Canyon will be greatly increased, so Bai Chuan also frowned deeply.
"Master, how about..." Bai Chuan suddenly looked sharply, fiercely, and made a downward gesture.
"Let me think about it, if it really doesn't work, then this is the only way. Bai He's Contra is still very valuable." Li Xuan frowned and said to Bai Chuan.
Li Xuan would not kill Bai He unless it was absolutely necessary.
Douluo Continent is not a game world. In Douluo Continent, you can not only poison but also use traps. In this case, although Bai He is in the Contra realm, it will be difficult to kill Bai He. , but it is not impossible to achieve.
But Li Xuan would not let Bai He disappear easily. Li Xuan also wanted to use Bai He's influence to find Yang Wudi and recruit Yang Wudi to his staff.
The purpose of recruiting the Min clan is not only to recruit the Min clan, but also to win over the Po clan through the Min clan.
There is still no news about the Po Zhi clan, and Li Xuan will not touch Bai He easily, but if Bai He dares to have different intentions, Li Xuan will not hesitate to do it.
Bai Chuan watched Li Xuan deep in thought, and sat quietly aside, waiting for Li Xuan to make a decision.
"One step at a time. Bai He can stay, but he must be monitored to prevent him from losing control. If the danger increases, he will be killed without mercy." Li Xuan's eyes exuded a faint murderous aura.
Li Xuan must find a way to control Bai He to avoid trapping himself at a critical moment.
"Master, you are right." Bai Chuan looked at Li Xuan and nodded with satisfaction.
Be decisive in killing, but not bloodthirsty or indiscriminate, and weigh the pros and cons. Li Xuan's character can achieve great things!
"Uncle Bai, this is the greeting note I prepared before. Could you please come over and deliver it to the Min clan for me, Uncle Bai?" Li Xuan took out a greeting note from the small cave and handed it to Bai Chuan.
"Yes, young master, I will send him off right away." Bai Chuan stood up and bowed to Li Xuan, then picked up the greeting card and turned around to leave.
Li Xuan looked at Bai Chuan's back with a heavy expression. The Min clan was indeed good, but they were also a hot potato.
"Oh, if you don't handle it well, you will cultivate a boy who gives money. You have to be careful." Li Xuan waved his hand impatiently, and then returned to his room to rest.
Although the Min clan is in ruins, they are still the nobility of the past, so Li Xuan also has to pay a visit to the Min clan with noble etiquette.
After returning to his room, Li Xuan went directly to sleep.
Bai He's identity is really embarrassing. The protagonist Tang San's great-uncle, Li Xuan is also worried that this guy will really sacrifice his life for himself and give the Sky-shattering Cannon to Tang San.
That is really a big cake rolled into a meatball, and a cannon was fired into it. (End of this chapter)
