Chapter 148 Reinforcement
Li Jin's last group round-robin match was scheduled for this afternoon, against Xu Yiming, the crown prince of the empire.In the eyes of everyone in the Li family, this seemed like a finale.

Everyone still went out early in the morning today, and Li Jin was no exception.But when they arrived at the central square, they quickly mixed into the crowd, and after making sure that no one was following them, they scattered and disappeared.

Everyone who had a game in the morning still appeared on the battle stage, so no one noticed the disappearance of Li Jin and others.From time to time, the ebony puppet changed into the appearance of everyone and appeared in various places in the central square to confuse the public.

All the inns in the imperial capital were notified early in the morning.It is said that the qualifiers are coming to an end. During this period of time, those who enter the city for the purpose of participating and watching the game must leave the imperial capital within three days from tomorrow, and all inns must actively respond and cooperate.Those who need to stay in the imperial capital for other reasons need to report and explain the situation at the gate of the city again.

The old Zhang of the pie shop is still guarding the shop today, and the pies that have been prepared have been pushed to the central square by the staff in a delivery cart for sale.At this time, a few soldiers in the uniform of the city defense army walked into Zhang Ji's donkey meat pie shop.

"Old Zhang, are you alone?" The leader of the group looked around as soon as he entered the shop, "Where's your distant nephew?"

"Captain Wu, you are here!" Lao Zhang stood up immediately, picked out a few pies and distributed them to the soldiers, and said with a smile, "You said that my nephew, he went to the central square to see those royal servants. The pet master is competing. I have been pushing the pies to the square to sell these days, and I will ask him to help take care of the business over there."

"Your nephew is also true. I haven't seen him since he entered the imperial capital. Every time he said that he couldn't find anyone in the crowded central square. When I came to him at night, he said he was drinking outside." Wu The captain honestly took a bite of the pie, shook his head enjoying himself, and said, "I came here mainly to look for him, please remember to tell him that people like him who come to the imperial capital from other places to visit relatives should come to the gate of the city within three days." Go and report, after the qualifiers are over, the emperor will check the floating population."

Lao Zhang hurriedly bowed and responded: "I can save it. When he comes back later, I will tell him about it."

"That's good." Captain Wu nodded upon hearing the words, "Then the notice has been conveyed to me, so let's go first. I have to go to Shopkeeper Zhao's house to inform..."

"Those guys, go slowly!" Lao Zhang hurriedly greeted and sent off Captain Wu and his party. After they had gone far, Lao Zhang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

At this time, a young man came out from the back room of the pie shop, looked out, and then said to Lao Zhang, "Thank you, Boss Zhang."

Lao Zhang looked at the "eldest nephew" in front of him who obviously had spiritual fluctuations in his chest, and shook his head: "No need. Since I risked my life to help you, why don't I thank you for it. As long as you can really Let the dog official get the retribution he deserves, and I have forgotten a heart disease for many years."

The young man looked resolutely: "We will do our best! But Boss Zhang, please find an excuse to leave the city tonight and take refuge. If something happens, it's okay..."

"No need." Lao Zhang shook his head resolutely this time, "My grandparents have been here for generations, and I don't want to move anymore. Besides, I can run alone, how can the neighbors of the same street run? Now that everyone has done it, they will not be afraid of death. .”

The young man was silent for a while, then nodded hesitantly, and then said: "That kid is leaving now! I'm going to meet up with my companions." After speaking, the young man cupped his fists to salute, and then walked towards the small door at the back of the inner room.

"Young man!" At this moment, Lao Zhang stopped the young man.

"Boss Zhang, what's the matter?" The young man paused.

Old Zhang hesitated for a while, and then said with a complicated expression: "Master Liu... Is he really dead? There are also Captain Li, Captain Zhang, Master Zhu, Song Yushi...they all..."

The young man's face became serious, and after a while he whispered, "As far as I know, when the incident happened, they...couldn't leave the imperial capital."

Hearing this, Lao Zhang flickered before he managed to stand still: "I was lucky...that year in the severe winter, Mr. Liu's own stove didn't light up, so all the charcoal was given to poor families with women, children and children... ...these are all good officials...the sky has no eyes! Young man, you, you must avenge them!"

The young man didn't look back, but nodded heavily, and then continued to walk towards the back door.He walked around from the back door of the pie shop to the Imperial Capital Avenue, followed the route he had practiced for many days, turned left and right, avoided the patrolling city defense forces in the Imperial Capital, and made sure that no one was following him, and finally came to an alley .

The alleys are deep and dilapidated.The dead leaves on the ground had already been piled up in a layer, and the surrounding houses seemed to be deserted for a long time, and there was no sound at all.The young man came to a room, pushed open the unlocked small door in front of him, and then got in.

Everything in the house was old and uninhabitable, but there was not much dust.The young man didn't pay attention, he went straight to a corner of the room and pushed the wall hard.The wall turned away to reveal a small hole for one person to enter and exit.The young man bowed and went through it, but he came to another alley.

However, this alley is quieter than the previous alley.Because this small alley is not only unoccupied, but even the entrance of the alley was blocked by a wall.In other words, no one can enter this alley through normal methods.And the deepest part of this alley is a dilapidated yard, full of desolation.

This courtyard was originally an property of the Zhou family in the imperial capital. While it was used as a warehouse, the Zhou family's intelligence department was also hidden there.When Chen Dan purged the eyeliners of the major families in the imperial capital, he wiped out the people here twice, and finally sealed off the courtyard.Over the past few years, the Zhou family, who had been warned, had no choice but to treat this property as non-existent, while Chen Dan's people observed the place for a while, and after finding that there was no one living there, they relaxed their supervision.

The young man walked into the yard and looked around, only to find a warehouse with straw hanging on the door, and went up to knock on it.The door was quickly opened, a head poked out, habitually looked to the left and right, and then welcomed the young man in.

As soon as the young man entered the warehouse, he saw a huge spiritual power barrier covering a group of people, who seemed to be talking about something.The young man secretly counted the number of people, and there were about five or sixty people. He also quickly found Li Jin and Li Yu in the crowd, and outside the spiritual power barrier, only himself and the person who opened the door for him were left. bit up.

The spiritual barrier was revoked, and Li Yu looked at the young man and nodded, "This should be the last person who has arrived, so we are all here. Then let's not waste time, let's start now!" Then Li Yu Signaling to reopen the spiritual barrier, this time it enveloped everyone in it.

Li Yu pointed to everyone including the young man and said to Li Jin: "These brothers are all leaders in the Dragon Cavalry Army, but they usually wear masks to show others, in order to be able to cope with the current situation. Believe that No matter how powerful the people in Shigong are, it is impossible to know who they are."

The young man who came in last cupped his hands at Li Jin, and smiled respectfully: "Actually, thanks to the hidden spirit water that Young Master Li Jin brought out, everyone slipped into the imperial capital pretending to be ordinary people. There is a lot less regulation.”

That's right, when Xiao Si and Li Shuang went out of the city to report to the Dragoon Army, the storage bag Li Jin handed over to them contained part of the hidden spirit water he robbed in the medicine hall!
Li Jin waved his hand politely, and then asked: "This is the leader of the brothers who sneaked into the imperial capital? What is the specific strength of the manpower sent this time? Can you tell me about it?"

The young man handed over again: "The last general, Li Tong, is the captain of this special operations team. I brought a total of 50 people directly into the city, including one of the sixth rank, which is me. Next, there are nine dragon cavalry officers and soldiers of the fifth rank, There are 20 people in Tier [-], and the rest are Tier [-] pet masters."

Li Jin nodded: "With the help of Captain Li, I really feel a lot more relaxed. In this way, we will have greater confidence in finding an opportunity to seize the city gate."

"The last general secretly thinks that it is not that he is more confident, but that he is determined to win!" Li Tong glanced at Li Jin and Li Yu, then glanced at the crowd, and finally couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said, "This time, the last general is waiting for 50 people." They entered the imperial capital in batches, but if they all lived in various inns under the guise of watching the game, the time of entry would be concentrated and strange, and the goal would still be too big. Therefore, we separated a group of brothers, and according to the information you provided, in With the help of the people of the imperial capital, we obtained our identities and hid them. But in this way, if the operation fails, we may still be able to escape a few, but these ordinary people will definitely be implicated."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, and nodded solemnly.These days, Li Jin and his party traveled around carefully and tried repeatedly, and finally they contacted a group of people in the imperial capital who were willing to help them.To be honest, if it weren't for the people in the whole street who could reach an agreement, Li Jin and others would not have dared to disclose the matter at all.And when Xiao Hulu faced ordinary people, his accurate lie detection function also played a powerful role.

Fortunately, most of the people in the imperial capital were pure in nature, and the Chen family was notoriously unpopular, so this step went smoothly.Speaking of it, it can be regarded as self-defeating by Mieshigong.

Only then did Li Tong continue: "I have to say, Young Master and Young Master Li Jin, you have done an excellent job. Before the imperial capital in the future, the two elders and the head of the family specially ordered the general to express their appreciation to you and everyone on their behalf. Especially Mr. Li Jin, who really played a key role this time. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to make such a plan."

"Good luck, it's just a big luck when you go shopping." Li Jin touched his nose and said modestly.But among the people present, those who belonged to the 16 contestants naturally thought of Li Jin's title of "Sweeping Emperor".
