Bright Era

The mountains are green, the water is green, heaven, Lin Qi is still familiar with it since childhood, there is a little blue in the white, and there is a blush behind the white and blue. But the white clouds are still white clouds. Under the blowing of the mountain breeze, the clouds lightly crossed the sky and drifted away leisurely.

Following the muddy ground that can barely be called a road, the convoy moved forward slowly. Lin Qi and his party followed the convoy and walked slowly, and from time to time they helped Aris to deal with emergencies-for example, if the wheel suddenly got stuck in a pit and couldn't move, Lin Qi would make Beep Beep. Miles helped those civilians push the cart out of the mud pit.

As for Arda, this guy is hanging at the back of the team, triumphantly showing off his majestic muscles to a delicate girl. This delicate girl with long light blonde hair was the one Arda had molested in the village.

Two hundred gold coins, plus ten bean-sized rubies that made Aris’s eyes pop out, this girl with an extremely beautiful name, called'Alit', was handed over to her by her parents. Arda. The so-called transfer is actually that Alithe was sold to Arda. As for being a maid or something, it is better to follow a master earl than to live in a small village, right?

For this incident, there is a small episode. Alda bought Alita with a ‘heavy money’. A brave young man in the village resolutely applied to Alda for a duel for his sweetheart. Needless to say, the evil earl stunned the brave boy with a punch, and the beautiful girl fell into the clutches of the evil earl.

Lin Qi looked back at Alda from time to time. This **** who is in estrus all year round, he is here to hook up with Alit, what should he do with her afterwards? This ordinary girl who doesn't even have any strength would be the biggest burden if he followed Lin Qi and the others.

With a light sigh, Lin Qi could only rack his brains to find a way out for Alithe. Although the heart has become like a stone in the Black Abyss God Prison, but this is to divide the object. If Yun Jun suddenly came over now, Lin Qi would not hesitate to abandon Ali Te and escape, just like he abandoned those loyal subordinates of Xiong Wanjin.

But now Yun Jun is still thousands of miles away to vent her anger, and Alithe is such a delicate and likable girl, Lin Qi can only plan for her. Maybe, it seems, probably, it should work like this? What Lin Qi lacks now is the subordinates who can see people. A young girl such as Alithe is also a pure human, and her family is very innocent. Of course, she can see people.

Along the way, from noon to evening, under the hillside in front, a small village was in sight.

A small river flows quietly around the village. There can be more than 500 households in the village, which means that the village should have more than 2,000 permanent residents. Just north of the village, at the turn of the river, there is a small mansion.

It was a mansion covering an area of ​​about one acre. Obviously, the builders of the mansion wanted to imitate the specifications of the war castle, but it was obviously due to lack of financial resources and manpower. Ordinary houses have a little more defense.

On a three-meter-high gable wall, a two-meter-wide channel was excavated outside the wall, bringing in running water from the river. This is all the fortifications of the mansion. And this mansion is obviously a bit old. Judging by Lin Qi's eyesight, this mansion has at least a hundred years of history. The mottled walls and the emerald green moss on the wall all show the wind and rain that this mansion has experienced.

The only thing Lin Qi could barely notice was the four guards standing outside the front gate of the house. They wore leather armor. Although the craftsmanship was poor, they were at least a brand new set of leather armor. The spears in their hands are also newly forged, with smooth wooden handles and shiny spear heads. Compared with the spears in the hands of the four soldiers around Lin Qi that have been bitten by the wood rods with countless holes, the equipment of the four guards It can even be called excellent.

Jiawu laughed in a low voice, "This is a very backward place, Master."

Lin Qi smiled and glanced at Jiawu. Jiawu nodded gently, and said with excitement: "Remote, backward, conservative, and closed. Such a place is easy to control, and it is easy to change it according to my own mind. My master, I developed myself back then. In the sect of the People’s Republic of China, such a place was specially selected as the headquarters."

Nodding, Lin Qi narrowed his eyes. Gawu's words were in line with his mind, since he came here, he had to do something before leaving. The Abynese Mountains, together with the canyon passages of the two empires, the small forces in complex places, the remote, backward, closed, and conservative environment, if Lin Qi didn't do something here, he would really not forgive himself.

Although temporarily lost contact with the Abyssal World, with the power Lin Qi currently possesses, Jiawu is the mage of the holy realm, Arda and Bilibili are the heavenly positions of the Mowu Shuangxiu, and the three disciples of Jiawu He is a celestial mage, this strength is enough to lay a solid foundation here.

Even Lin Qi has Xiong Wanjin next to him. This guy is a bit weaker, but he has money!

Lin Qi couldn't take out a copper piece from the World Ring, but Xiong Wanjin was not sealed. He has shipped so many oriental goods in Vias Harbour. Those big families of Vias traded with him in cash. Can Lin Qi borrow a start-up capital from him!

Aris yelled a few times in excitement, and a soldier immediately carried a spear and strode towards the village.

Lin Qi looked at the soldier from a distance, watching him ran across the only avenue in the village and came to the gate of the mansion just north of the village. After a short while, I saw a young man in a black dress riding a war horse with thirty soldiers marching out of the mansion.

When Lin Qi and others walked to the entrance of the village, the young men had already greeted them at the entrance of the village with two groups of soldiers.

Seeing Lin Qi and Arda and his party, the young man greeted him with strides, and first made a deep salute: "Welcome to the distinguished adults, I am the owner of this land, Viscount Qiuli."

Lin Qi smiled and nodded to Qiuli. With a subtle smile, he gracefully followed the ancient aristocratic etiquette and met with Viscount Qiuli. Lin Qi randomly selected a set of ancient etiquette taught by the young man. The complex and graceful body movements, and the exquisite and graceful prayers made Qiuli's face flushed, and the cold sweat on his forehead ran down his cheeks.

Obviously, Lin Qi’s ancient, noble, and gorgeous aristocratic etiquette shocked Qiuli, and the poorest Viscount Qiuli, who was less than thirty years old, had only seen the largest aristocrat from Lanyue Principality. He was just an earl, not to mention that the earl of Lanyue Principality was Grand Duke Lanyue. He never had the opportunity to see this kind of complicated etiquette that was only popular among some extremely ancient nobles.

When Lin Qi bowed to himself like dancing, and greeted and blessed himself gracefully like singing, Viscount Qiuli had the urge to faint on the spot. Shame, shame, Viscount Qiuli just learned a little bit of the most basic aristocratic etiquette from his early-dead father. He didn’t have the money to hire a dedicated courtesy officer—to be honest, there was nothing around Duke Lanyue, the ruler of the Lanyue Principality. A decent courtesy officer.

Therefore, Viscount Qiuli was ashamed of himself. He bowed his head, resisting the urge to hide his face and flee, embarrassingly accompany Lin Qi to bend this set of complicated etiquette one by one. When Lin Qi finished his compliment and held Viscount Qiuli affectionately, Viscount Qiuli had already regarded Lin Qi as his best friend-as long as Lin Qi did not repeat this terrible etiquette again, he was willing to give anything. cost.

Lin Qi took Viscount Qiuli's hand and said affectionately: "This time, your Excellency is in trouble. It's really unfortunate. I just left the family secretly and traveled, and the guards I carried were a little less. As a result, I encountered such a terrible thing Bandit."

Jiawu suddenly spoke from the side: "Master, please allow your humble servant to intervene. Maybe we are not the bandit. You know, it is impossible to have a mage that suppresses me. I am a heavenly mage. How could there be such a powerful existence among the bandits?"

Lin Qi frowned, and he said faintly: "I understand, but this is not important. The important thing is that we have to borrow Your Excellency Qiuli's mansion to heal our wounds. As for the rest, let's wait until we return to the family!"

Viscount Qiuli looked at Jiawu in horror. It was really shocking. Is this a celestial mage?

Hell, heavenly mages, of course, Lanyue Principality does not lack heavenly mages, but this kind of ‘high-end’ existence has always been recruited by Lanyue Grand Duke, and they are all worshipped by the Principality. The direct manager of Viscount Qiuli, the lofty Lord Earl, was surrounded by only three masters with the highest status as the family's worship.

And Lin Qi, there is a heavenly mage beside him! This must be a rich man!

Viscount Qiuli became more and more embarrassed. He stammered and said to Lin Qi: "Your Excellency Lin Qi, it is a great honor for you to come here. If there is any lack of hospitality..."

Lin Qi tolerantly slapped Viscount Qiuli on the shoulder: "Oh, Your Excellency Qiuli, please don't say that, we are bothering you. It doesn't matter, really, I am not a very particular person. Your territory is beautiful, really Yes, with beautiful mountains and clear waters and fresh air, this would be a good place for a holiday.

Gawu coughed slightly, and Jiawu interrupted again: "Master, we must pay attention to one thing. You must not let anyone know about your coming here. If those'bandits'... I mean, If they are really bandits, we won't let them know our whereabouts."

Lin Qi pouted and looked at Viscount Qiuli with wide eyes.

The Viscount consciously gave the order: "Uncle Jefferson, I don't want the matter of Your Excellency Lin Qi here to be passed on by those mud legs."

Standing behind Viscount Qiuli, an old man in a housekeeper's uniform nodded hurriedly: "As you wish, Master Qiuli, as long as the only passage leading to the outside world is blocked, no one will spread the news of Your Excellency Lin Qi. "

Lin Qi nodded in satisfaction, and under the leadership of Viscount Qiuli, the group of them slowly walked into the mansion of the Viscount. (To be continued.
