At the annual awakening ceremony,
Li Yang actually gave up the SSS-rank profession [Scourge of the Zerg].
While everyone was still mocking Li Yang's foolishness,
Li Yang, who ...
"stop!"
Just as Li Yang and the other two were rushing towards the city gate.
Suddenly, several figures appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
"Um?"
Watching the figure suddenly appear blocking the road.
Li Yang's brows jumped.
I thought he was here to blackmail them again.
After all, everything that happened in this city had left a deep impression on him.
At this moment, the person who blocked the road spoke, gesturing to stop.
"Stop immediately! Surrender immediately! We are the city guards. How can you run away without paying for something you bought?"
"Yes, please get off your mount quickly and raise your hands."
Zhao Linger was stunned.
I thought, I don’t care whether you are from the city guard or the county guard, he just wants to leave the city now!
Li Yang was in much the same boat. They were in a hurry! Anyone who dared to stop them was an enemy.
After hearing what these people said, Li Yang smelled something strange.
Buying things without paying?
When did they stop paying for things?
Soon, he thought of what happened at the post station not long ago.
But at that time they took their own mounts, and in their opinion, there was nothing wrong with it.
Seeing that they were very close to the city gate and were about to leave the city, they encountered these people blocking their way. Li Yang became a little impatient.
It is really not worthwhile to start a conflict at this time.
After all, these people are also government officials. If any impact is caused, they will be the ones who suffer the loss.
Thinking of this, Li Yang still spoke in a friendly manner.
"What do you mean by buying something without paying? We are all good citizens. This mount originally belongs to us."
"Don't try to trick us. We've seen people like you many times. We've even seen people who are bolder than you. So don't try to deceive us. It's useless. We won't be fooled." A sturdy man with a big knife said.
Li Yang curled his lips and thought: This is true, there are really a lot of monsters and demons in your city. After all, even you yourselves are not much better.
Seeing that there was no possibility of communication with the other party, Li Yang shrugged helplessly.
"Zhao Linger, come on, it's your turn to perform."
Zhao Linger snorted and spoke.
"Are you sure you want to stop me? Do you know that even your boss would have to be respectful when he sees me?"
"Our boss! Just a little brat like you?"
"You really think we're fools, don't you? You little brats like to use tricks, but they won't work on us mature adults!"
"I'm dying of laughter! I'm so scared!"
The other person seemed to have heard a huge joke.
"In that case, let us remind you that if you dare to obstruct our law enforcement, the consequences will be severe."
"If you delay our journey, the consequences will be even more serious for you!" Zhao Linger snorted coldly.
"Alright! It seems you guys are not following the rules. You little brats are not learning your lesson. Since that's the case, let us teach you a lesson."
As the man spoke, he drew the big knife from his waist.
Zhao Linger herself was not to be outdone. After what had happened previously, she was furious and needed an outlet.
She brandished her spear, commanded her mount, and rushed forward like a female general.
I have to say, as the daughter of a general, she really inherited some of the heroic spirit.
Zhao Linger's strength is very strong. These people live a life of idleness and bully the weak. They are no match for her at all.
She kept brandishing her spear with unstoppable force, taking on several people alone and forcing them to retreat step by step. She was extremely brave.
The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of the city patrol team, who quickly rushed over to stop it.
Why is it Li Zhi? Because after these patrols came over, they discovered Zhao Linger and recognized their identities.
They had met her before yesterday. This Zhao Linger was a big shot with a powerful background, and they couldn't afford to offend her.
Finally, after some adjustments and knowing the whole story, these people solemnly promised Li Yang and his team that they would give them an explanation, saying that they would find the murderer who stole their mounts in the city and punish him severely.
Li Yang actually didn't care about the punishment. His mount had found him in the end anyway, and these people would have nothing to do with them in the future. It was none of his business if they stayed here and continued to do harm. He just wanted to leave quickly and continue on his journey to the Golden City.
Finally, the people who had stopped Li Yang and the others and had a conflict with them apologized to Li Yang and Zhao Linger one by one.
Li Yang no longer cared, and Zhao Linger took this opportunity to vent her anger.
All in all, apart from being delayed a little longer, they didn't suffer much loss.
What puzzled Li Yang was how these people received the news.
After some inquiries, we found out that it was the hawker who reported them!
They were timid in front of Li Yang and the others before, but they showed their true nature immediately and started to send people to trick them.
Zhao Linger was extremely angry after finding out, and immediately wanted to ride her bike back to give the guy a good beating.
But they were stopped by Li Yang. They were about to reach the city gate, and rushing there and then rushing back would cause so much trouble and a waste of time.
However, those who stab them in the back will not have a good ending.
Under Li Yang's persuasion, although Zhao Linger gave up the plan to chase after the man and beat him up, she also ordered the city guards here to teach the idiot a lesson.
She told the other party about his illegal purchase and sale of mounts and other things he had done. This way, these officials would not sit idly by and would definitely find a way to punish him.
After all, the person who offended her was Aunt Zhao Linger.
At this point, everything was left to Zhao Linger, and Li Yang did nothing.
Finally, the two of them arrived at the city gate smoothly and were finally able to leave this life-and-death city.
It was really thrilling along the way. Fortunately, Zhao Linger was able to activate her hidden identity, and everyone here was very polite to her. Otherwise, they would have encountered countless setbacks along the way.
After leaving the city gate, the sun had already risen.
I had wasted some time in the city regarding this mount.
It was already morning, almost noon.
There was no other way, so they had to continue on their journey quickly, still trying to reach the second city in the evening, and then directly reach the Golden City the next day, which was the ideal situation.
Li Yang took out the prepared map and checked the route for the day.
