In this backward village, people live in extreme poverty and are overwhelmed by heavy taxes.

Residents often relied on tree bark and grass roots to feed their hunger.

However, in this difficult environment, the richest man in the village held a grand engagement ceremony, and the scene of preparing the banquet was very busy and lively.

On that night, the home and exterior of Lao Tian, ​​the richest man, were decorated like a paradise.

Colored lanterns decorate every street corner and eaves.

Some relatives and friends came to help prepare blessings for this special day.

The chefs started cooking delicious meals early, which far exceeded the rough food the villagers usually ate.

The table is filled with all kinds of delicious dishes, like a series of fragrant temptations.

Although those dishes are better than the bark grass roots that the villagers usually eat, they are still a luxury treat for ordinary people.

There is grilled meat, the meat is tender and juicy, and every piece seems to be exuding an alluring aroma.

There are also stewed soups that are fragrant and bring a feeling of warmth and satisfaction.

In addition to meat and soup, a variety of colorful vegetables and fruits are placed on the banquet.

The bright colors and alluring smells stimulated every relative and friend present.

The richest man in the village carefully selected the best ingredients to show off his wealth.

The banquet was filled with laughter from relatives and friends, people toasted with blessings, raised glasses and talked freely.

Festive music floated in the air, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.

A small song and dance performance was held in the courtyard of the richest man's home. The warm and joyful atmosphere made people forget about poverty and injustice.

As for Lao Tian, ​​the richest man, seeing his daughter and son-in-law toasting to their business or relatives one by one, a smile appeared on his face filled with vicissitudes of life.

"Old Tian, ​​we have to leave." Cheng Xiao came to Lao Tian and said softly.

Lao Tian was a little surprised. Why did the newlyweds leave before their toast arrived at their table?

Qi Lin took a step forward, watched Lao Tian hand over an ordinary constitution potion, and said politely: "I have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore."

Lao Tian looked at the potion handed over by Qi Lin in surprise. The magic patterns that accidentally flashed on it told Lao Tian that this was an extraordinary potion!

"This" Lao Tian hurriedly waved his hands and said with some panic on his face: "You are not rewarded for your work, and you are not treated well. This is unacceptable."

"Three people arranged such a sumptuous table for us. This is just a little thought." Qi Lin smiled softly and put the potion into Lao Tian's hand.

Seeing that Lao Tian wanted to refuse, Qi Lin said directly: "You seem to be in poor health, so you'd better not be polite."

The investigation panel showed that Lao Tian's physical condition was declining.

Lao Tian frowned slightly, but still stubbornly shook his head and stuffed the potion back into Qi Lin's hand: "The guest is here to give Lao Tian face. You must not ask for anything from the guest again."

While Lao Tian was declining, a group of uninvited guests arrived.

The wind blew through the grass, trembling slightly.

In the distance, the sound of horse hooves sounded, gradually approaching here with a heavy rhythm.

The sound of horse hooves is getting closer and closer, echoing on the ground, as if it indicates who is coming.

Every sound of stepping on the ground made the relatives, friends and guests attending the banquet look a little panicked, and even Lao Tian's face showed solemnity.

"Master, according to the school's deduction, if this is Natasha's game, then the first important node should be this team of the mayor's personal armed forces."

Lao Shi's voice appears in Soul Link.

Qi Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, looked into the distance, and replied softly in the soul link: "Don't worry about it anymore, caring too much will be artificial, just be yourself."

Along with the sound of horse hooves comes the roaring sound.

The mayor's personal armed forces, the Flower Guards, shouted slogans in unison with loud and powerful voices, as if announcing their arrival.

On this quiet land, yellow smoke began to rise.

It rolls in the distance, as if it is a symbol of the aura of the city of yellow sand, and is also the mark of the horses driven by the knights roaring past.

The yellow smoke brings a special atmosphere, which seems to closely connect the war horses and knights.

Rumor has it that these mayor’s executioners kill people every time they appear.

Moreover, their war horses come from the distant city of yellow sand. They are the hybrid product of a kind of demon monster. The horse's hooves will emit the smell of yellow sand, which is a kind of extraordinary power and has the ability to walk on the yellow sand as if it were flat ground. , can be regarded as a unique product of the city of yellow sand.

The faces of the guests became more and more frightened.

People knew that the arrival of the knights meant a kind of class advantage and dominance.

Every time the yellow sand arrives, it will change the fate of some people on this land, thereby demonstrating the majesty and power of the town and deterring those who dare to offend.

The yellow sand is so diffuse that people cannot see them, but their presence is everywhere.

The sound of people arriving before anyone arrived, the sound of horse hooves, the shouts of knights and the billowing of yellow smoke, seemed to tell of an upcoming turbulent moment.

Didn't these Flower Guards go to the outside of the town to clear out horse bandits?

Why are you here suddenly?

Are they killing people again?

But this is Lao Tian’s house!

Lao Tian is a person with connections in the Yellow Sand City. The mayor has been polite to Lao Tian for thirty years. Even the taxes were handed over by Lao Tian on his own initiative!

Such a good relationship.

Why are the Flower Guards here?

However, no matter how complicated people's expectations are, the arrival of the knights has become an irreversible reality.

As a person in the game, Qi Lin ordered the ghost to report the information about the Flower Guards again.

Flower Guard, the mayor's personal armed force.

The war horses were brought by the mayor from the military camp in the City of Yellow Sand with the help of the apostle's banner.

The reason why it is named Flower Guard is because.

They wear helmets made of flowers, and each flower is one of the most beautiful wild flowers in the poor village.

Yes, they are wild flowers, not precious famous flowers.

No one knows why the Flower Guards, who are fully armored, wear flower helmets that have no defensive capabilities at all.

The defensive effect of this thing is almost non-existent!

No one knows why it is a wild flower?

Rumor has it that the mayor likes wildflowers because they symbolize hope and resilience.

The total number of members of the Guard is about two hundred. Except for Kane, the leader of the powerful soul level, the other members are all of the top gold level.

They wore light armor and exuded an intimidating majesty.

Wearing standard steel swords symbolizes their power and glory.

Because this is not a weapon that ordinary people can possess.

The movements of holding the riding crop are firm and severe, demonstrating their strict requirements for discipline.

The knights' mounts are equally impressive.

The knights ride high-quality horses from the City of Yellow Sand. These magnificent mounts are bred in the desolate and difficult desert.

They are purebred war horses, covered in smooth brown fur, exuding an aura of nobility and power.

These war horses are long-legged, tall, strong and muscular, with agile movements and amazing speed.

The horses are equipped with gorgeous saddles and shiny copper bells, and the sweet sound of the bells echoes in the air with the sound of their hooves.

The knights grasped the reins of the horses with extremely high skill and grace, and drove them to slaughter anyone who dared to resist. .

They are infinitely powerful and as fast as the wind, exuding an unparalleled majesty and power in the night, especially when the horse's hooves give off the atmosphere of yellow sand.

Commander Kane has a cold expression on his face all year round, and his dark brown eyes reveal endless arrogance and contempt.

His favorite thing was to wave the riding crop in his hand, making a sharp and powerful whipping sound, and punishing the poor who were unwilling to pay taxes.

His actions were arrogant and cruel, mercilessly beating those poor people who were unable to fight back.

The poor people bled and groaned under the suppression of the knights.

They were whipped mercilessly by the knights, and the sound of the whips resounded throughout the village in the night, like a proclamation of the shame of poverty and disobedience.

These bad actions made the poor feel desperate and helpless. They trembled, but they were unable to resist these arrogant knights.

The knights used their power and equipment to treat the poor classes arbitrarily and trample them under their feet.

The absurd injustice makes people feel angry and resist, but they are powerless to resist this fierce oppression.

The sound of rough whipping came, and each blow was accompanied by the cry of the poor and the wail of pain.

The Supreme Knight paid no attention to their suffering, only paying attention to whether they fulfilled their tax obligations.

This barbaric and ruthless behavior has further widened the huge gap between rich and poor, pushing the poor people in this area into an even darker abyss.

When Kane, the leader of the Flower Guard, shuttled through the yellow sand to everyone.

He glanced around casually and saw the guests who were either solemn or frightened.

Some people with a guilty conscience even began to climb over the wall and run away.

All this happened under the eyes of Commander Kane.

As the representative of power in the town, he was ordered to come and deal with the Lao Tian family this time and plunder all the property that the mayor had raised for more than thirty years.

The day the mayor said the big shot would arrive soon arrived.

Kane didn't know what kind of big shot the mayor was welcoming. He only knew that he was a big shot who could decide the lives and deaths of many people with just one look.

One look can determine the super big shots in the Yellow Sand City, including the city lord!

For this reason, Kane became even more angry and tried hard to suppress the mud-legged people with force.

Without taxes, where would the money come from to buy magic patterns? Without magic patterns, how would the flower road that welcomes big people keep blooming?

If the flower path that the big shot likes is not in full bloom, how can the big shot be happy?

Just as Commander Kane was about to throw the bloody bag in his hand to the ground, he suddenly discovered a heresy.

Next to Lao Tian, ​​the richest man, stood a thin figure wrapped in a black robe.

At the first glance, Kane hadn't paid much attention to Qi Lin.

He focused more on those guests, which ones he could use to enrich his own pockets and kill them by the way.

As the richest man, the Lao Tian family, who is well-armed, well-connected and extremely wealthy, is also on the mayor's tax collection list.

However, Kane followed the mayor's order and put it at the end of the sequence.

As for the reason?

Maybe the mayor is worried about Lao Tian’s connections in the Chamber of Commerce in the City of Yellow Sand?

Or maybe, the mayor is planning to renovate the old-age farm. Who would have thought that the Flower Road requires too many magic patterns, so the mayor takes action in advance?

Kane doesn't know either, for Kane.

It does not matter.

So what if you have connections in the Yellow Sand City?

As long as they are killed, Hun'er can still go to the Yellow Sand City to complain?

No matter if he files a complaint, as long as things are done well on the Flower Road, Kane doesn't think the mayor can't even take the position of city lord.

But now, Kane's battle premonition told him: This man wrapped in black robes is not as thin and simple as he looks on the outside.

"Yo!" Kane gently urged the war horse and came to Lao Tian. He looked at Lao Tian condescendingly and said with a smile, "Is this Lao Tian's friend in the Yellow Sand City?"

Before he finished speaking, War Horse suddenly felt a terrifying aura lingering underground!

That was the aura deliberately emitted by the crypt demon under Lao Jiu's command.

As underground killers, their aura is the natural enemy of these war horses!

The war horse screamed, suddenly raised its body and turned around to run away.

Kane, who was sitting high on the horse, didn't know what was happening. He just threw the bag to the ground, then turned over and dismounted, holding down the horse with one hand!

"what happened?"

Kane looked at the panicked war horse. For some reason, although the war horse was pinned to the ground by him, it was still kicking its limbs in an attempt to escape.

Seeing this scene, Qi Lin frowned slightly and said to the soul link: "That's almost enough, Lao Jiu."

As Lao Jiu agreed, the crypt demon gathered its aura and lurked again.

The war horse then became quiet.

After Kane asked his men to take the horse away, he might have lost face in shame. Kane picked up the bag and asked Lao Tian again: "Your friend?"

Lao Tian's face showed confusion, he knew the purpose of Kane's coming here.

Lao Tian didn't want to implicate the innocent, let alone Cheng Xiao.

After weighing it in his mind, he gritted his teeth and said to Kane: "Travelers who are lost in the distance, seeing that I have a happy event here, come here to ask for a wedding drink."

As soon as Lao Tian's voice came out, Qi Lin was slightly stunned by these words.

He originally thought that Lao Tian would involve him.

Because according to the ghost's intelligence, these knights surrounded Lao Tian's yard from all directions, and they seemed to be coming with bad intentions.

And Lao Tian's expression seemed to have a psychological expectation for this.

In this kind of drowning situation, most people will grab anything at will. They only hope that what they grab is a life-saving straw, and they don't care whether it will harm others.

But Lao Tian did not do this.

Qi Lin didn't think this was his personal charm, it was probably because he didn't want to involve Cheng Xiao.

"oh."

Kane's eyes flashed, and his arrogant expression returned to his face.

do not know.

It means that either this person is not strong enough and Lao Tian doesn't want to be involved.

Or, I really don’t know him.

It seems that this accident will not affect the progress of our planned plan.

Kane looked relaxed, raised his head slightly and untied the blood-stained bag. The mouth of the bag was facing down, and a dead head fell from the bag to the ground.

Bang bang

The head slowly rolled down at Lao Tian's feet.

The blood-stained head made the guests around who dared not move rashly scream in surprise, but they all covered their mouths and lowered their heads, not daring to look at it.

That was Wang Dali's head.

Cheng Xiao, who hurriedly covered Alice's eyes, recognized it at a glance. It was Wang Dali's head!

And Qi Lin also remembered that it was the head of the principled robber from before!

"When I returned from the previous capture of the robber, I happened to see the robber carrying a weapon and carrying dirty money to buy talisman water."

Kane smiled and said casually to Lao Tian, ​​"This man's name is Wang Dali, from your village."

"I remember him, he used to work in a factory." Lao Tian nodded slightly and replied.

"Yes, his wife was begging in the town and had her legs broken." Kane casually kicked Wang Dali's head and said with a smile as if he was chatting: "I heard that his wife is sick. It’s so heavy that we don’t even have bran noodles for the pigs to eat at home.”

"Hey!" Kane used his toes slightly and crushed the head with a thud.

The yellow and white substance splashed at Lao Tian's hem, while Qi Lin nearby had already retreated to the side and was spared the damage.

"Old Tian, ​​how do you think he got these nineteen coppers?"

Kane raised his head and glanced at Qi Lin strangely, wondering how this man could react so quickly.

But thinking of Lao Tian's traveler's rhetoric, Kane understood clearly. After all, how could he travel around the world without two brushes?

As long as the other party does not hinder the progress of the plan, Kane will not deliberately trouble Qi Lin, let alone test him.

Kane, who was once a mercenary, knew very well that testing sometimes meant starting a war, and no one wanted to cause trouble for nothing.

"I don't know." Lao Tian replied softly.

"Hehe." Kane turned his attention to Lao Tian again.

After looking at it carefully for a long time, Kane smiled and said: "In my opinion, he must have stolen money from your house, right?"
