Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 39
Reward a horse?

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of other refugees glowed green. They had lost their fields and houses due to the war and had been hungry for too long. How could they care about the Feng Kingdom's law prohibiting the killing of horses and cattle.

However, there are also refugees who are staring at the beggar in the crowd who knows how to get into the city. Due to Li Qing's intimidation, they dare not do anything yet.

Not to mention Li Qing, they actually wanted to enter the city, but they were doomed to die outside the city.

If they could enter the city, there might be a way to survive. Whether it was stealing, robbing or begging, they could always get more food than outside the deserted city.

The beggar wiped the dark dust from his face, a flash of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and was finally replaced by a look of determination.

He knelt down directly and said: "I don't want horses, I want you to accept me as your disciple, and I also want to practice martial arts!"

This surprised Li Qing slightly. He frowned slightly and said, "What if I refuse?"

The beggar grabbed the ground with his head and said in a deep voice: "Then I will still tell you how to enter the city. I just hope that you can take me with you and let me serve you!"

Li Qing smiled. He glanced at the refugees around him and said with a chuckle: "Everyone, the bandits are doing a lot of evil. I will take one of the remaining four horses to use on the road. You can divide the other three horses yourself. yes!"

After speaking, Li Qing waved to the beggar in the crowd, then turned around, took the reins of a horse and left gracefully, leaving only the back of the remaining refugees.

When the other refugees heard this, they didn't care about other things and started fighting over the ownership of the three horses. The scene was extremely chaotic for a while.

Beggar saw Li Qing waving to him. He quickly stood up and followed him with a face full of joy.

On the official road to Wangyuan City, Li Qing got on the horse. Although he didn't know much about equestrian skills, he was able to tame this bad horse with his strength.

The little beggar walked in front holding the horse's reins, looking very much like a servant.

"Tell me, what's your name?" Li Qing asked casually.

"Sir, my name is Qi Kang!"

Li Qing, who was sitting on the horse, nodded, and then asked the question he was most concerned about: "Tell me, how can you enter the city? Why don't you go in, and instead mix in a bunch of refugees?"

Hearing this, Qi Kang smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, it's not that I don't want to go to the city, it's just that I don't have the ability!"

"Besides the city gate, Wangyuan City actually has a secret entrance. Many people used to sneak into the city through that opening in order to avoid the city entry tax!"

"It's a pity that war broke out recently. People who had entered the city through this opening actually blocked the opening with heavy objects from the inside in order to prevent this entrance from being used!"

At this point, Qi Kang gritted his teeth and said: "If this were not the case, my family would have entered the city long ago and would not have died in the war."

Qi Kang's tone was full of hatred, his eyes were red, and he saw the scene of his family's tragic death again.

The yellow sand all over the sky was swept up by the wind again, covering the sky and the sun, and the light suddenly dimmed.

Ahead is the majestic city at the border of Maple Kingdom. The mottled city walls stand quietly, exuding a thick atmosphere like a mountain. This is absolutely an indestructible defense.

Wangyuan City occupies a natural barrier, and the city wall just connects to the steep and rugged mountains. If you want to go deep into the hinterland of Maple Kingdom, you can only find a way to pass this pass, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The towering mountains and the solid and thick city walls isolate the harsh environment outside the pass. Going further inside, you will find a beautiful maple country with a pleasant climate and all things growing.

When the sky gradually darkened, Li Qing continued to let Qi Kang lead the way to the sealed entrance.

"Young master, it's here."

With the cover of night, Qi Kang led Li Qing to a place where the city wall and the mountains meet. This place is far away from the city gate and is a blind spot for the defenders in the city to patrol. In addition, the night is deep, and it is impossible for anyone to discover it.

The entrance Qi Kang mentioned was actually a crack, a gap that opened naturally from the ground and could only be passed by one person.Contrary to Li Qing's imagination, he thought it was a hole in the thick city wall that allowed people to pass through.

However, this may not be possible just by thinking about it. If such a thick city wall is really opened, it will be repaired immediately.

Li Qing squatted down and looked at the gap in the ground, which was only accessible to one person, and determined that it was naturally formed.

"Well, that's right, but it's a pity that horses can't be brought into the city." As he said that, Li Qing took off the luggage and baggage hanging on the horse, and climbed into the gap alone.

It was dark inside and not tall enough for a person. Walking inside required bending down, which was very difficult. However, it was precisely because the cracks were so small that it was secretive enough and few people knew about it.

Reaching the middle section, Li Qing had to turn sideways to continue passing.

Soon, Qi Kang came over from behind. He was thin, but he was able to navigate the cracks with ease.

"Sir, if you go further you will reach the inner city area, but it is covered by a wooden plank with stones on it. There is no way to push it!" Qi Kang whispered in the darkness.

Sure enough!

Li Qing reached the end of the crack. It was a bit difficult to accommodate even one person here.

Therefore, people who come here can only push the stone slab covering it with one person's strength.

Tuk Tuk Tuk!
Li Qing knocked on the wooden board above with his hand, making a very strong sound, which was indeed suppressed.

For ordinary people, this wooden board is a real mountain, and it is difficult to exert force in this small space, and there is no possibility of pushing it.

Of course, this is just for ordinary people.

The person who built this wooden board never considered that a powerful warrior would enter the city through this gap.

At the moment, Li Qing placed his hands on the wooden board above. He tilted his head and pressed his head and one shoulder against the wooden board.

"Humph!"

The external force was activated, and Li Qing's strength suddenly surged. His slightly crouched body suddenly lifted the heavy wooden board.

By the time he stood up straight, the part above his neck had reached out of the ground, and he could clearly see the surrounding environment.

It was a relatively secluded place in Wangyuan City. After confirming that no one was around, Li Qing quickly moved the heavy wooden board to the ground next to it.

Without the barrier of the wooden board, Li Qing jumped out of the gap.

On the wooden board, there were actually several rolling stones pressed tightly, and they were firmly fixed on top with hemp ropes.

Looking at this scene, Li Qing couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, thinking that no wonder it was so serious.

Qi Kang also climbed out quickly with his hands and feet. He looked at the scene on the board, and his eyes filled with anger again.

Ignoring Qi Kang's anger, Li Qing immediately moved the wooden plank with the rolling stone back again and covered it tightly again.

"Let's go."

Li Qing said calmly, then looked at the buildings in the distance, and couldn't help but feel excited.

After such a long time, he finally returned to the normal civilized world!
