Chapter 269 The Purpose of the Thieves
Xiang Zixi smiled indifferently: "Can you tell me what happened to the secret code on the gate of the gravel city?"
The old man quickly glanced at Hu Ye, who stood on one side and looked expressionless. Although she was dressed as a teenager, her figure was absolutely real.
Xiang Zixi's figure is not bad, but after seeing Hu Ye, he still can't help envy and hatred, and can't help but be excited. It can be seen that Hu Ye's good figure is absolutely not small.
Looking at Hu Ye, Xiang Zixi has already said, "She is my friend, and there is nothing to avoid! But this street is really not suitable for talking about things. You must have several strongholds in the gravel city, right? If it's convenient, let's go there!"
Listening to Zixi's words, Hu Ye's eyes flashed with a strange look.
Is she so defenseless to others?
The old man nodded and whispered, "Please follow me!" In order to prevent others from following, it is necessary to take a roundabout——"
"I understand this! It doesn't matter!" Xiang Zixi smiled gently and nodded to Hu Ye. She walked at the end. In this way, if someone follows them, unless the other party is strong in martial arts, they can't avoid Hu Ye's ears.
Sure enough, Hu Ye found a lot of people who followed him, but they all sent them away in his own way.
There are no fools in the gravel city.
Xiang Zixi followed the old man and asked Hu Ye in a low voice, "Where is this gravel city? Why do I think everyone in this gravel city doesn't seem simple? Or are they not good?"
"Good eyesight!" Hu Ye gently praised and continued, "The reason why this gravel city is the last defense circle of the capital is precisely because none of the residents living in this gravel city are good people! Or, most of the people living here are adultery, or other people who have made mistakes, and are assigned to this gravel city!"
"Oh? Since he is a criminal, why don't you throw him into prison?"
"That's because the relationship between nobles is staggered. One person may be a criminal to one noble, but for another noble may be an assistant or even an aristocrat himself. What do you think should be done with such a situation? The status of the aristocracy is very absolute, so it has become this gravel city. Without an order issued by the emperor or prince, no one is allowed to enter or leave at will. Of course, except for special people!"
Special people? What do you mean? Xiang Zixi was stunned that this gravel city still had such an identity. She really didn't expect it: "So, don't the people who live in really want to go out?"
"Hmm! Do they have the courage to go out? Hu Ye snorted coldly: "The law stipulates that as long as you step into the gravel city, everything will follow the rules of the gravel city. Once you step out of the gravel city, life and death will be ignored! Which of those people who have been sent here is not a lot of enemies outside? No one will be stupid enough to go out and ask for fun, right? As for the special people you just asked, it naturally includes you and those people!" Hu Ye pouted at the others, and the smile at the corners of his mouth kept rippling.
"Thieves and killers can go in and out at will, but they absolutely can't kill people here, otherwise even the emperor can't protect them!" When Hu Ye said this, his expression became very serious: "So, no matter what happens, you can never take the initiative to understand each other when others don't threaten your life. Unless you plan not to leave this gravel city for the rest of your life!"
nodded to Zixi and said, "I think I already understand what you mean!" The reason why this gravel city is solid is that it is a threat from the outside, and on the other hand, it is also because of the autonomy of the rights of the gravel city. It is indeed a happy land that does not directly accept the rule of the emperor and nobles. And the gravel city and the capital are related to each other. If the capital is in crisis, the gravel city will die. Similarly, the gravel city is naturally strong combat power and is also the most natural barrier against strong enemies. In order to protect its peace, the gravel city desperately has to defend this last line of defense. This is a win-win move!"
Other thieves could analyze Xiang Zixi after just a few words, and suddenly showed an inexplicable expression.
Finally arrived at the destination, the old man finally couldn't help asking Xiang Zixi: "Who is the girl talking extraordinary?"
"Little girl, Xiang Zixi!" Xiang Zixi saluted indifferently; "It's just an offense! I have to anger you for my strategy and tactics!"
The old man sighed; "It turned out to be you! No wonder! It's not unfair to lose in your hands! Xiang Zixi, the legendary of the four countries, is indeed a dragon and phoenix among people, an immortal genius! Seeing it today, it really lives up to its reputation! The old Tang Zongming is the leader of the city's thieves! These six people and those who fight with you for the first time are all my apprentices!"
The other six people punched Zixi and returned the six people with the same courtesy.
"I was not sure about this matter, but now with the participation of the famous Miss Xiang Zixi, the chance of success will be greatly improved!" Tang Zongming looked at Xiang Zixi with a smile, but Xiang Zixi sneered slightly. This old man did it deliberately! This old man knew his identity for a long time, but he still took so much effort to attract him here. Isn't he looking for something? I never keep a low profile along the way, and others can easily find out their whereabouts. In addition, not everyone can go in and out of this gravel city. This old man is obviously a bean bag!
However, Xiang Zixi thought so, but her face was full of harmony. Hu Ye is right. If he causes trouble here, he is afraid he will die!
"Mr. Tang is welcome!" Xiang Zixi smiled faintly and said, "I'm still curious about what kind of thing can bother you to engrave a code on the gate to gather thieves outside the gravel city and act with you!"
Tang Zongming smiled and turned his eyes to his big apprentice. He saw the first and only female thief to fight with Xiang Zixi. He hugged Xiang Zixi and said, "Miss Xiang doesn't know anything. The news we found is top secret! A few days ago, the master got a piece of news, claiming that the eldest princess from the Kingdom of Lan, which is also from Miss Xiang, the Purple Princess of the Kingdom of the Kingdom, has secretly transported all his property in the Kingdom of the Kingdom of Lan and hidden it in a very secret place!"
Xiang Zixi's eyes suddenly lit up, but said randomly, "Guys, anyway, Jin Xiaoxiao is a guest of the prince of the Kingdom. Aren't you afraid of making the prince unhappy by doing this?"
The thieves looked at each other and smiled, and the woman explained with a smile, "Miss Xiang, my prince is wise and talented, and he is like a god. How can he watch the dog wings he took in gradually become rich, and even suppress the trend of his master?"
Xiang Zixi covered the corners of his mouth with his sleeves and bent his eyebrows; "So it is! That boy is really not a fuel-efficient lamp! I was deceived by him several times! It seems that Jin Xiaoxiao is not very satisfactory in the country! Didn't she recognize her own father, the rebel king of the dark country, the king of Qi? Then His Royal Highness will not sit idly by for the sake of the King of Qi, will he?
"I've heard that His Royal Highness attaches great importance to the King of Qi, and he doesn't even hesitate to send his most effective men to protect him!" Xiang Zixi said this and couldn't help gritting his teeth. If Ji Yan hadn't stopped him, he would have cut off the head of the king of Qi!
"Haha! Miss Xiang is so smart that she didn't expect to see through the changes!" The thief who last fight with Xiang Zixi said with a smile, "A dog is a dog after all. How can it be like a horse?"
This sentence suddenly lit up!
In Linguo, dogs represent wall grass with a weak position, because whoever gives them food is the owner. But the real horse is different. There is only one master in life!
It turns out that His Royal Highness is not so reassuring about the King of Qi! That couldn't be better! You must seize this opportunity to disintegrate the King of Qi and Jin Xiaoxiao little by little!
"I understand, this matter is more or less at the instruction of His Royal Highness! That guy will never give up if he doesn't squeeze other people's energy! He asked you to wait for me in this gravel city, right? Xiang Zixi smiled indifferently, "Although he has been used by him again, I am willing to help him this time!" But I also have my conditions!"
When others saw that Xiang Zixi had already guessed the joints, Tang Zongming immediately said, "Please say it!"
"I'm not interested in these treasures! I only need two people!" Xiang Zixi smiled indifferently; "Ji Yan and Hu Ye!"
Hu Ye was shocked! She never thought that Xiang Zixi would use her and Ji Yan as a bargaining chip to negotiate with His Royal Highness! This Xiang Zixi is probably crazy, right?
He said indifferently to Zixi, "Your Highness doesn't care about the treasures in Jin Xiaoxiao's hand, but whether she has a rebellious heart or not!" He wants to use this batch of treasures to test Jin Xiaoxiao! Go back and tell the prince that I will arrive in the capital in three days! Let him make up his mind as soon as possible!"
"This--" The others looked at each other in consterance. Although they spoke so rudely to Zixi, these people did not dare to be disrespectful at all. You should know that they still wear the prince's ring on their fingers! That's not something anyone can wear!
Xiang Zixi sighed gently from the bottom of her heart, and she ignored the prince of the country from beginning to end. His dage appearance made almost everyone relax their vigilance against him. He didn't even react when he was used by him. In terms of planning, the prince of Linguo is on the same side with Lin Muyang!
But I'm really unwilling to be played with by this guy again and again. Because Lin Muyang likes himself, he will more or less take care of his feelings. The prince of the sparkling country has no such concern at all, and everything takes his own interests as the starting point. Although I also want to defeat Jin Xiaoxiao, I must not let the prince of the Kingdom succeed so easily. I must pay him a little price!
The so-called companion is like a tiger. What you say, you have to take Ji Yan and this Hu Ye, who doesn't deal with you much from the prince!
