Chapter 369 The Wandering Knight’s Rebellion
Chapter 369 The Wandering Knight’s Rebellion
Horses roared outside the inn.
The landlady looked at Li Qi: "Sir, help!"
His expression was somewhat unfocused.
Li Qi also looked outside the door. The noise completely fell silent after two screams.
A figure hidden under a cloak rushed in with a sword.
"You're not..." The landlady looked at the desert bandits rushing in in shock. It was a little different from what she had imagined. The ones who came back were not her own at all!
The desert bandit grabbed the landlady's neck with one hand and lifted her up. The charming desert woman's feet were hanging in the air, her steps were random, her face was red from suppressing it, and she was livid again.
"Boom!" The desert bandit waved his hand, and the proprietress fell to the ground.
"Ahem!" She covered her neck and coughed, her face covered with tears and saliva.
"Everyone, get out!" the desert bandits shouted at the travelers.
Anyone who lives in the desert knows that lions, leopards, hyenas and other ferocious beasts are dangerous, but desert bandits are even more dangerous. The wild beasts still take care of them, and they will not pester people as long as they are full, but desert bandits mainly kill people.
The travelers obeyed and went out. The proprietress also covered her neck and struggled to get up and walk out, fearing that if she walked slower, she would be struck to death with a sword.
Soon only Li Qi and his men were left in the inn.
The desert bandit looked at Li Qi.
Allen, who was sitting at another table, wanted to stand up when he saw this, but Trevor held his shoulder down with one hand.
Lin Yu, a girl from the north, said: "One of our own."
"One of our own?" Allen looked carefully and discovered that the desert bandit actually held a knight's sword, and under a thick layer of linen was a set of knight's plate armor.
It's those wandering knights!
The desert bandit took off his cloak, then took off his helmet and visor, revealing an old face. Who else could it be if he wasn't Bulwer?
"My lord" Bulwell looked at Li Qi.
"I'll leave this inn to you for the time being," Li Qi said. "It's best to provide some convenience to travelers. Don't kill the goose to lay the eggs. I need people to go to Bangta Market to ensure that this trade road is open."
"Yes, sir!" Bulwer nodded.
Li Qi is not needed for the next thing, the wandering knights will take care of everything, whether it is expulsion or killing.
One night later, the inn had quietly changed its owner.
It's just that the loyalty of the wandering knights stationed at the inn is 0.
In the early morning, Li Qi led the team to set off again, heading towards Bonta Canyon.
The furnace-like sun chased behind them, driving everyone into the canyon.
The wandering knights gathered together to watch them leave.
A wandering knight said: "Bulwer, he left and didn't leave many people behind. We only have the elf woman in Bonta Market. We can take Bonta Market directly."
"We are oath-keeping knights, not desert bandits!" said the old wandering knight Bulwer.
Although sometimes he goes too far like a desert bandit, no one will admit that he has no bottom line.
Although the wandering knight next to him covered his face with a visor, Bulwell could guess his expression at this time.
Bulwer added: "We are the knights of Princess Sophia, and everything we do is to overthrow the rule of Earl Buffalo!"
Regardless of whether they were loyal knights of Princess Sophia before, after being suppressed by Earl Buffalo, they must be. I believe that no one will be more loyal to Princess Sophia than them.
Seeing that everyone was unimpressed, Bulwell said: "The Baron dares to hand over the management of the inn to us. Do you think he has not thought of countermeasures?"
The wandering knight said: "Even if there is no way to capture Bangta Market in a short period of time, as long as we block the canyon, he will not be able to defeat him even if he has thousands of troops."
Although Bangta Canyon connects the East Gorge and the desert, the narrow road also means that it is impossible to move the army on a large scale. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you may be directly blocked.
"..." Bulwell was silent, and then looked behind him at the inn he had just occupied.
They had no need for inns or trade routes.
This is also a good place to stay. Counting the previous wandering knight camp, they have two places to stay.
If one day the Buffalo Earl thought of them and destroyed them, they would be able to escape easily.
He admitted that he was a little tempted by the idea of directly carving up Bonta Bazaar.
"Let's talk about it when he comes back."
In fact, he still had a way in his mind that he didn't want to believe, but thought it was very possible, to break through the formation with force.
The four people following Li Qi, especially the four-handed mercenary, reminded him of the legends that had been circulating in the past two years, about magic and extraordinary power.
……
After exiting Bangta Canyon, enter the Monkey Territory.
The last time he came to Shanzhang Fort, Li Qi was riding an eagle and carrying a big sword.
Half of the castle was destroyed when he left.
Not only is Dongxia famous, it also lets the Dongxia nobles know that there is a porcupine baron who is "covered with thorns". Don't mess with him unless necessary, otherwise he may fall from the sky and tear you apart while you are sleeping that night. your castle.
This time it was different.
The castle door was pushed open, and Li Qi led the team inside.
As soon as he got off the horse, the castle steward came over and said, "Sir, please come this way!"
The corpse ghost and the four extraordinary ones followed Li Qi into the castle to rest.
Li Qi was rushing on time, but the official start of the Shanzhang Fort dance would have to wait until the day after tomorrow.
That night, Li Qi lay on the bed and had a good rest. At the same time, he connected to the signal network through the ghoul and roughly observed the situation in the territory.
the next day.
Li Qi put on a set of light clothes. Unfortunately, the aristocratic dress was very troublesome, with many layers and various decorations. Even if he kept everything simple, he would still be wrapped up.
As soon as I twisted my body, I felt a little hot and wanted to sweat.
It’s June, it’s hot!
There are many nobles, young masters and ladies who come to the ball, but in order to avoid suspicion, the men and women will not meet directly before the ball officially begins.
Whether you really want to abide by this rule depends on everyone's own plan.
Li Qi is one of them who keeps to himself. He has no intention of having an "unexpected encounter" with a certain aristocratic lady in the small garden where he "accidentally met". Although Li Qi is confident that his appearance is enough to impress many aristocratic ladies. I am willing to have a love affair with him right there in the garden.
Occasionally, Li Qi would pretend to be blind when meeting a few aristocratic ladies who made secret glances.
The aristocratic young people did not have a good impression of Li Qi. Most of them had close and friendly relations with the Bill family. Now that they saw "enemies" coming to their door, no matter how scared they were, they had to show off and at least let little Bill see his attitude.
His title is Monkey Baron, not Porcupine Baron.
Li Qi mistakenly thought that this was really a Hongmen Banquet several times, and almost jumped for joy.
Unfortunately not.
Li Qi himself also enjoyed his leisure time. He had nothing to do with these little nobles.
