Chapter 2048 leaves a way out
Chapter 2048 leaves a way out
As for Liu Qianlan's strength, he was much better than me and the sloppy Taoist priest. This time, he only passed seven or eight moves with his opponent before he was knocked away by his sword.
In the end, the twelve people who won out were the ones who would be selected to enter the palace of the royal city as guards.
After we won the battle, a man who looked like an old eunuch who spoke in a effeminate manner summoned us to Wang Liudou of the Semu tribe and knelt down one after another.
I really don’t want to kneel down, but there’s nothing I can do about it now.
Liudou glanced at those of us kneeling on the ground and said with a smile: "Yes, you are all the strongest warriors of our Semu tribe. Do you know what you are selected for today?"
The sloppy Taoist priest immediately shouted loudly: "Guard the royal city and the royal palace, and protect the king. We will die to our death!"
I have to say that the sloppy Taoist’s rainbow fart was very timely.
When the great king Li Dou heard this, he glanced at the sloppy Taoist priest with approval: "Well said, I will reward you with a hundred taels of gold."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The sloppy Taoist priest grinned. He could exchange a lot of money for these hundred taels of gold.
Immediately, Liudou looked at the little princess beside him and said with a smile: "Xunling, please choose two people and bring them back to protect you."
Only then did I realize that the name of this little princess was actually Xunling, which was quite nice.
Princess Xunling immediately stood up and walked towards a few of us. With her hands behind her back, she walked slowly past us.
When she came to me, I looked up at her and smiled at her.
When I was beating her just now, Princess Xunling stood up and applauded. She must have had some impression of me. Just now I looked at the sloppy Taoist priest and kept staring at her. I must have some idea of her, and I must cooperate with the sloppy Taoist priest.
Princess Xunling saw me looking at her, and immediately stretched out a finger like a green onion, pointed at me and said: "Father, I choose him!"
When Princess Xunling chose me, the Protector named Hu Hu stood up and said with a smile: "Princess Xunling is really good at seeing me. This person has many tricks, a sharp mind, and is proficient in the arrangement of magic circles. If I stay with Princess It’s the most suitable place to be around.”
Wang Liudou of the Semu tribe also nodded: "Okay, whoever my daughter chooses will be whoever you like."
"Thank you for the gift, Princess. I will do my best to protect the Lord loyally." I quickly saluted Princess Xunling.
As soon as I finished speaking, the sloppy Taoist priest stood up and said loudly: "I am also willing to serve the princess and protect her. The princess is so beautiful and dignified, but I just glanced at it from a distance. Even though my subordinate is dead, No regrets.”
The flatterers were really being flattered one after another, which immediately made Princess Xunling very happy, so she pointed at the sloppy Taoist priest and said: "Father, let him follow me, his little mouth is so sweet, I listen to it every day He praised me and was very happy.”
"Okay, okay, these two are following you. You two must be responsible for taking care of Princess Xunling in the future. If anything goes wrong, you will have your heads on your neck." Liu Dou said coldly.
The sloppy Taoist priest and I quickly kowtowed and thanked each other, feeling extremely happy in our hearts. We could finally be together again, and we could do things more conveniently in the future.
As for Liu Qianlan, he was valued by the two protectors and was appointed deputy general to protect the royal palace.
After some allocation, the two princes were also assigned several guards, while the sloppy Taoist priest and I followed Princess Xunling.
Not long after, someone brought the armor up. The sloppy Taoist priest and I changed into our outfits and followed Princess Xunling's Luan Jia back to the magnificent palace.
The palace in the royal city of the Semu Clan is magnificent and has a wide area. It feels even bigger than the Forbidden City in China.
Princess Xunling's palace is located in the center of the imperial city.
The people responsible for protecting Princess Xunling are not just the sloppy Taoist priest and I, but also dozens of guards like us.
The imperial city is heavily guarded, with one post every five steps and one sentry every ten steps. You are definitely not allowed to move around in the imperial city.
As the sloppy Taoist priest and I walked, we observed the layout around us and secretly remembered it in our hearts. When we had a good understanding of the layout in the imperial city, we would start looking for the passage to the outside world.
This is definitely a very difficult task.
At first, Princess Xunling didn’t take us to heart. After following Princess Xunling back to the palace, the two of us were arranged in a wing on one side of Princess Xunling’s palace. There were several houses here, all It is prepared for the guards who protect Princess Xunling.
After the arrangements were made, the two of us were arranged to stand guard in the middle of the night.
It was night, in the dead of night, and most people in the imperial city had gone to sleep. The sloppy Taoist priest and I, like the door gods, stood at the door of Princess Xunling's bedroom.
After a while, when everything calmed down, I looked at the sloppy Taoist priest on the side and asked in a low voice: "Luo Laoliu, what do you think? You insist on following Princess Xunling, you won't like her." Already?"
"Wu Laoliu, you have been thinking about these messy things all day long. There are many benefits for us to follow Princess Xunling. Haven't you seen that the king of the Semu tribe dotes on Princess Xunling, even if it is a crime? What's wrong? I don't think the king of the Semu clan can bear to blame her. After we get to know Princess Xunling, we can let her take us around the imperial city to find the exit." Sloppy Taoist Priest. He looked around and lowered his voice.
"The king of the Semu clan will definitely not target Princess Xunling, but that doesn't mean he won't deal with the two of us. It's better to be careful." I reminded in a low voice.
The sloppy Taoist priest chuckled and said: "The reason why I chose Princess Xunling is to leave a way out for us. Once the affair between the two of us is exposed, we can still hold Xunling hostage as a last resort. Princess Ling leaves here. This is called advancing, attacking, retreating and defending. You guys should learn from this."
This guy's eight hundred thoughts are really not in vain. He has even thought of a way out. With him here, I feel a lot less worried.
The sloppy Taoist priest and I stood guard for about an hour when suddenly a group of soldiers in golden armor walked slowly past us. They must have been patrolling at night.
To our surprise, the person at the front of this group of patrolling soldiers turned out to be Liu Qianlan.
He was selected by the two protectors to become the deputy general in the imperial city, and his status was much higher than that of the sloppy Taoist priest and me.
When we look at him, he looks at us.
But when Liu Qianlan walked past us, he didn't say anything. He just glanced at us, shook his head slightly at us, and then passed by with a group of soldiers.
