Chapter 847

"Flower, we brothers have kowtowed to the ground; from now on, whenever there is something good, I will definitely think of you!" The Glove took a can and gave it to the Green Flower.

The Green Flower actually accepted the can.

"Becoming sworn brothers with you really isn't a loss," the Green Flower looked at Li Li Banfeng, who was driving the carriage, "One day, if I run into a major disaster,

having a brother like you might just save my life."

"I protect you?" The Glove smiled, "You're overestimating me, aren't you? Do I have that much ability?"

The Green Flower wasn't joking; he was serious: "I haven't seen how much ability you have, but I've seen Li Qi's ability, and the relationship between Li Qi and you is also very unusual, so you must have a way to protect me."

Arriving at the border line, the Green Flower got off the carriage, hugged the can that was about the same size as him, and said to Li Li Banfeng: "We'll meet again."

After speaking, the Green Flower ran back to the Earth Market.

There were still many people who hadn't died of illness; while they were still alive, the Green Flower wanted to turn them all into Dao-Labor Ghosts. Every Dao-Labor Ghost here would be his subordinate from now on.

The Heavenly Maiden opened an exit on the border line, and Li Li Banfeng drove the carriage away from the Earth Market.

Xiang Xiang Hongying looked back at the Dao-Labor Ghosts appearing from time to time in the Earth Market and turned to ask Li Li Banfeng: "Seventh Young Master, don't tell me the Earth Market was given to the Green Flower too?"

Li Li Banfeng said nothing.

Zhao Zhao Xiaowan sighed on the side: "If we don't give it to him, what can we do? The Earth Market has already become like this. If someone else came here, wouldn't it be adding troops to the Green Flower?

Besides, my husband and the Green Flower had an agreement; this loose Dao-Labor Dao Guiling cannot be taken away at will. With a water source, the Green Flower can support as many Dao-Labor Ghosts as he wants."

Xiang Xiang Hongying thought for a moment and felt relieved: "Having won such a big battle, losing just an Earth Market doesn't count for much!"

Hua Jiuer felt Xiang Xiang Hongying was wrong: "This can't be counted as losing; this is called a reward. The Green Flower is a person from Like Puluozhou!"

Yuan Yuan Miaoping nodded and said: "That's right, this is a reward. The Peddler gave Green Flower Bay to the Green Flower; didn't others not say anything?

Our sect master only gave one Earth Market; what big deal is that?"

Ah Yu looked at Li Li Banfeng, feeling a wave of worry in her heart: "The Peddler is the Peddler, and Seventh is Seventh. That group of old fellows, Seventh might not be able to suppress them."

Xiang Xiang Hongying was very dissatisfied: "Why wouldn't he be able to suppress them? In what way is our Seventh Young Master inferior to the Peddler?"

The Heavenly Maiden heard this and said with a smile: "Your man is still far behind my man."

Xiang Xiang Hongying was so angry her face turned pale; Tang Dao stepped forward and whispered a few words to Xiang Xiang Hongying, and Xiang Xiang Hongying smiled.

She leaned close to the Heavenly Maiden and said softly: "My man is right here; where is yours?"

The Heavenly Maiden grabbed Xiang Xiang Hongying's hair, and Xiang Xiang Hongying reached out to tear at her face.

Dan shouted loudly: "Don't fight, the carriage will flip; don't fight on the carriage!"

Ah Yu pulled the Heavenly Maiden back: "Stop messing around; you'll be a laughingstock in a moment."

The Heavenly Maiden gritted her teeth and said: "Who dares to laugh at me? Why don't you fight with me? Isn't the Peddler your man?"

Ah Yu was stunned for a long time: "When did the Peddler become my man?"

The Heavenly Maiden said angrily: "You are my residential spirit; my man is your man!"

Xiang Xiang Hongying smiled: "Nonsense, Ah Yu is Seventh Young Master's residential spirit; counting it up, Seventh Young Master is her man!"

The Heavenly Maiden's eyes turned red: "Ah Yu, make it clear, who exactly is your man!"

After a moment of confusion, Ah Yu was furious: "What are you talking about? Don't I have a man? My man is the City Lord of Fool's City; I am not your dowry maid!"

The crowd argued more and more fiercely; seeing the carriage about to flip, Chu Shaoqiang drove calmly and said to the Fifth Miss: "Let's focus on the road; let's not bicker with them.

This young lady, can you stop staring at me? These old bones of mine don't have much flavor."

The Fifth Miss smiled and said: "Old bones are fragrant when chewed!"

Chu Shaoqiang wiped his sweat: "Then hurry to the human market; there are plenty of old bones there, all older than me."

Arriving at the human market, the Old Train had just returned from the expedition; they had won a great victory, almost completely annihilating the Nei Zhou naval forces.

The Old Train praised: "This battle relied entirely on the brothers from Baiji Commandery and the White Crane Sect. You scattered soil and seeds, giving them no chance to fight back at all."

Ling Ling Bai Tao and Bai Bai Wusong declined: "Senior, you flatter us; the one with real methods is Senior Xu. His seeds are truly powerful; once they enter the soil, they can pierce through the enemy's warships!"

Xu Han shook his head repeatedly: "If you ask me, let's not show off. The Shang Kingdom's naval forces can indeed fight on the water, but they were busy gathering ships to pick up the Bandit-Suppressing Army; they didn't want to fight us at all. A large number of warships were blocked in the harbor; they were just gifts to us.

The Bandit-Suppressing Army was dragged into the Earth Market by Seventh; in the end, this battle still relied on Seventh. Lan Qiao Yi was pinned down in the Earth Market by Seventh; he must be anxious. This battle wasn't easy for Seventh either!"

Li Li Banfeng nodded: "This battle was indeed not easy. Lan Qiao Yi was anxious at first, but not for the naval forces. Now I estimate Lan Qiao Yi is no longer anxious."

Xu Han was stunned for a long time; he didn't understand.

The Old Train was shocked for a long time and said: "Could it be that you won on your side too?"

Li Li Banfeng didn't explain further; he was a bit exhausted.

Yuan Yuan Miaoping organized images from different angles, and the projector constantly cut and pasted film.

A huge image appeared on the ceiling of the underground city; Yuan Yuan Miaoping and the projector cooperated to show the general process of the battlefield to everyone.

Not just the Eighteen Wheels and a group of sect founders and masters, the entire underground city human market could see it clearly.

They saw the Totem Army that died on the battlefield, the Bandit-Suppressing Army trapped in the Earth Market unable to break out, and Lan Qiao Yi lying by the well, dying in depression.

Everyone who saw these images was stunned.

Even the severely injured Old Mother Ku climbed out of her sickbed.

The crowd gathered on the streets of the human market, craning their necks, looking at the ceiling, looking at this fierce battle they could hardly imagine.

Some images were not seen completely, and some content was not coherent; Old Mother Ku didn't figure out how Li Li Banfeng won, but he knew Li Li Banfeng had indeed won.

Zhen Zhen Luoming's jaw almost dropped: "This, this is Pu Luo, Pu Luo"

He swallowed the second half of the sentence, not daring to shout it out.

"This is the Lord of Pu Luo!" Song Shu shouted.

As a member of the Hand-Foot Alliance, she shouldn't have shouted like that, but she couldn't help it. She looked at the tragic slaughter on the battlefield, and tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably.

She was not the only one crying; the entire human market was crying.

No one thought this battle could be won; everyone thought the Earth Market was finished, the underground city was finished, the Three-San San San Tou Cha was finished, and even the entire Like Puluozhou was going to be finished.

Many people had already prepared to move out of the underground city, but some people couldn't move away.

Chen Yongnian had just returned from the Year Wasteland; his wife couldn't go anywhere and had to stay in the human market. Chen Yongnian had already prepared to die with his wife.

In the shops of the human market, how many people had prepared for their own funerals, but who could have imagined that this fierce battle was actually won!

Ma Wu looked at the image on the ceiling and smiled: "Seventh is the leader of Like Puluozhou, and I am the brother of the Lord of Pu Luo."

Qin Qin Xiaopang clenched his fists and said: "Seventh Brother is the big boss of Like Puluozhou; let's see who dares to disobey!"

Wu Wu Yongchao puffed out his chest and said: "The Lord of Pu Luo is our Fortress Master; our Fortress Master is called Fortress Master!"

After shouting twice, he coughed a bit; he was injured when following the Old Train to attack the harbor, and many residential cultivators were injured.

But no matter how heavy their injuries were, the residential cultivators stood very straight.

Bai Bai Qiusheng and Yuwen Qi were writing manuscripts while looking at the images; they had moved the newspaper office to the Three-San San San Tou Cha and were preparing to publish a special edition tonight!

But after writing several versions of the manuscript, they felt dissatisfied; they felt their foundation was not enough.

Bai Bai Qiusheng went to find Zhang Zhang Xiuling: "For such a big manuscript, it must be written by the number one talented woman of Like Puluozhou!"

"I write it?" Zhang Zhang Xiuling held the pen, a bit excited, but she couldn't even write the first sentence.

She felt that all words at this moment might be very pale; she couldn't think of suitable words to describe this battle.

Xiao Yeci offered her own suggestion: "Sister Zhang Xiuling, just write it in a straightforward way; just write down this battle in a straightforward way!"

He was not a member of the Hand-Foot Alliance. He had run over personally to send the message to Bitter Granny entirely because he respected her prestige, hoping to find a backer for himself in the future. After all, Li Qi and the Eighteen Wheels didn't care for him, and his stance was consistent with Bitter Granny's most of the time.

Zhang Zhang Xiuling still didn't dare to put pen to paper: "Straightforward is certainly good, but I feel this image is not coherent; there are many things I can't write out."

Yuan Yuan Miaoping whispered to Li Qi: "Should the images of the Dao-Labor Ghosts be shown?"

Li Li Banfeng nodded: "Show them."

Yuan Yuan Miaoping reminded: "Once they see the Dao-Labor Ghosts, their attitude won't be like this anymore."

Li Li Banfeng was already prepared: "Could it be hidden anyway? Show them all."

When the Dao-Labor Ghosts appeared on the ceiling, the residents of the human market were no longer calm, and the attitudes of the sect founders and masters also changed.

"So that's how it was won?"

"Isn't this driving a tiger to swallow a wolf?"

"Can the Earth Market still be used?"

"It's full of plague; how can it still be used?"

"Even without the plague, with so many Dao-Labor Ghosts, wouldn't it be deadly?"

Zhen Zhen Luoming shouted angrily: "Seventh, what is this you've done? Isn't the Earth Market ruined anyway?"

Bing Bing Suling looked disdainful: "Not just the Earth Market, the human market is almost finished too. With Dao-Labor Ghosts plus the Green Flower's plague, can this place still be lived in? The entire underground city is finished!"

Song Shu wanted to defend Li Li Banfeng on the side: "A boundary line was made between the Earth Market and the human market; the Dao-Labor Ghosts can't come over, and the plague can't come over either. We shouldn't need to worry—"

The Heavenly Maiden was honest: "The boundary line won't be able to hold much longer."

The temporary boundary line made in a short time was a huge drain on the Heavenly Maiden; now the Heavenly Maiden was reaching her limit.

Li Li Banfeng said to the Heavenly Maiden: "Dissolve the boundary line!"

The faces of the people around changed completely!

The Heavenly Maiden didn't care; she had an agreement with Seventh before. If the battle was won, she would listen to Seventh. If Seventh said dissolve, she dissolved the boundary line immediately.

But with the boundary line dissolved, the plague and Dao-Labor Ghosts would come over.

Several sect founders stood up, ready to leave.

Zhen Zhen Luoming looked at Li Li Banfeng and said: "In a moment, the Dao-Labor Ghosts will attack; what will happen to the many commoners here? What will happen to the many heroes who came to fight? Li Qi, have you considered the consequences?"

Li Li Banfeng said: "I thought of the consequences long ago. I have an alliance with the Green Flower; Dao-Labor Ghosts are not allowed to leave the Earth Market, otherwise, I will take his life."

"An alliance with the Green Flower! Haha!" Zhen Zhen Luoming laughed loudly, "Everyone, you all heard it; this is the new leader of Like Puluozhou!

He has an alliance with the Green Flower; isn't this just a dream? What kind of person is the Green Flower? Can such a person abide by an alliance? What kind of character does such a person have? Li Qi, are you really not clear?"

The crowd followed Zhen Zhen Luoming's rhythm, surrounding Li Qi and criticizing him incessantly, their voices growing louder and louder.

Li Li Banfeng remembered a sentence from the Peddler: "If someone blames you, push it all onto me."

At the time, he only felt the Peddler wasn't easy; now he knew what the weight of this sentence was.

Li Li Banfeng didn't want to make any explanation; a low chant came, echoing in the human market, and Zhao Zhao Xiaowan spoke.

"What are you all doing?" Zhao Zhao Xiaowan scanned the crowd and said, "Is there anything wrong with making an alliance with the Green Flower? Back then, the Peddler made an alliance with him, and the Green Flower has always abided by the agreement, right? You have also made alliances with the Peddler; how often have you broken the rules?"

These words left the crowd speechless.

The wine sect founder Liu Liu Hutian said: "General Zhao, these words are inappropriate. How much resentment has there been between us? In our hearts, we were all thinking for the sake of Like Puluozhou. You shouldn't compare us with a person like the Green Flower.

As for you, you are originally a person of the imperial court, with the blood of Like Puluozhou on your hands. Sometimes, we don't want to bother with you; you'd better speak less."

"What's wrong with being a person of the imperial court?" The Old Train's female disciple Bai Bai Lan Qiao Niang spoke up, "Back in the Year Wasteland, General Zhao used the alias Huang Huang Yuxian,

led the Shi Shi Tiegu Seeds, and killed the invading Earth Kingdom army. You haven't forgotten this, have you!"

The Earth God of the Iron Bowl Ridge, Wang Wang Youniang, also spoke: "When the Earth Kingdom army pressed on the border, how many of you were watching the fun? Zhen Zhen Luoming, back then I spent a huge sum of money begging you to help me check the enemy situation, and you wouldn't do it. You haven't forgotten this, have you?"

Zhen Zhen Luoming waved his hand: "Don't mention the past; and don't compare me with an actor; I can't afford to lose that face."

"What's wrong with being an actor?" Zhao Zhao Xiaowan's brows furrowed, "I am an actor from Like Puluozhou, flowing with the blood of Like Puluozhou; don't I even have the qualification to say a word?"

Seeing the crowd arguing again, Sui Sui Chanxin stood up, gave a charming smile to the crowd, and eased the atmosphere.

When at the Hero Mountain, Sui Sui Chanxin had expressed her willingness to follow Seventh; although it was just a casual remark, Seventh really wanted to see what her attitude was.

Sui Sui Chanxin really said a fair word: "General Zhao is beyond reproach; she has shed blood for Like Puluozhou; she is a person of our Like Puluozhou.

In these few battles, General Hong has also risked her life. Don't flip over the old accounts of the past anymore; flipping them over again just makes one feel sick."

Speaking of this, Sui Sui Chanxin looked at Zhen Zhen Luoming and Liu Liu Hutian.

Zhen Zhen Luoming's face turned slightly red, and he didn't talk back.

Liu Liu Hutian held his wine pot, still drinking by himself.

Sui Sui Chanxin continued: "Handing the Earth Market to the Green Flower might not be a bad thing. He is a capable person; he turned Flower Bay into Green Water Bay, turning the poorest place in Like Puluozhou into the most prosperous place. I trust his ability!

As for the Dao-Labor Ghosts, they should indeed be guarded against. There are many places we need to guard against. Which of you who have lived in Like Puluozhou until today hasn't rushed out of a sea of blades and fire? Those Dao-Labor Ghosts could be guarded against in the Dao-Dao Guiling; now that they have run to the Earth Market, why can't they be guarded against?"

These words left Zhen Zhen Luoming, Bing Bing Suling, and Liu Liu Hutian speechless, and many sect founders and masters also put down the idea of leaving.

Eighteen Wheels saw the situation was good and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Seventh fought this battle beautifully. I don't care what others say; in my view, he has sat firmly as the big boss of Like Puluozhou."

Xu Han nodded: "He's firm in my view too!"

Sun Sun Tiecheng said: "Fool's City trusts Seventh!"

Ling Ling Bai Tao said: "Bai Nian Commandery trusts Li Qi!"

Chen Yongnian said: "Shi Shi Tiegu Seeds trust Seventh Young Master!"

Pan Pan Dehai stood up and bowed: "People of virtue, land of virtue, all are willing to listen to Seventh Young Master's dispatch!"

Song Song Qianhun said: "The Iron Gate Fortress only has one Fortress Master; we all listen to the Fortress Master!"

Ye Ye Jianhuang and Lan Qiao Lan Qiao Wuzui cupped their hands to the crowd: "Wine and liquor are not separated; we brothers, plus the sects under our hands, will all listen to Seventh Young Master from now on."

Song Shu looked at Old Mother Ku; she was waiting for Old Mother Ku's attitude.

Yuan Yuan Miaoping coughed lightly: "Why don't you say this girl is not enlightened? Who is the leader of the Hand-Foot Alliance? Is it Old Mother Ku? Your big leader has already followed our sect master; what are you still hesitating about?"

Song Shu rubbed her forehead, realizing she seemed to have overlooked one thing.

Yuan Yuan Miaoping was right; the Heavenly Maiden was the big leader of the Hand-Foot Alliance.

The members of the Hand-Foot Alliance waited for the Heavenly Maiden's attitude; the Heavenly Maiden glared at Yuan Yuan Miaoping: "I have a man; who said I wanted to follow Li Qi?"

Yuan Yuan Miaoping smiled and said: "Then what do you want?"

The Heavenly Maiden was silent for a moment: "I had an agreement with Li Qi beforehand; if the battle was won, I would listen to him. Today's matter, he makes the decision."

The members of the Hand-Foot Alliance had quite complex expressions; when joining the Hand-Foot Alliance, they each had their own purposes, and most of them hadn't seen the Heavenly Maiden before.

But now that the Heavenly Maiden had spoken, others didn't dare to have other opinions; the Hand-Foot Alliance could also be considered stable.

Various powerful figures and forces had expressed their stance; seeing the general trend was set, Zhen Zhen Luoming could only look for an opportunity to get away as soon as possible: "Who you make the leader has no great connection to me.

This great battle was not easy to fight; some gave their lives, some shed blood, some exerted strength, some spent money, but some just watched the fun.

We fought so many battles, risking our lives; how can we be given an explanation? We can't go back empty-handed!"

Everyone looked at Li Li Banfeng again.

Li Li Banfeng nodded: "Anyone who has exerted strength for Like Puluozhou will have compensation from me; I will definitely not let everyone suffer a loss."

Zhen Zhen Luoming said: "What will you use as compensation?"

Li Li Banfeng said: "Money, real gold and silver, cashed on the spot."

Zhen Zhen Luoming sneered: "I know you have quite a family business, but you don't know how high our worth is. I'll tell you this: even if you go bankrupt, this compensation might not even be half paid."

Ma Wu spoke up: "If Seventh can't pay, there's still me; I'll pay all my family assets too!"

Chu Er said: "There's still our Chu family; we'll pay it all too!"

Lu Lu Chunying said: "Count our Lu family in too."

Xiao Yeci said: "Our Xiao family can be counted in too."

Zhen Zhen Luoming scanned these young people: "You speak quite toughly; fine, let's settle the accounts now; I want to see how long you can stay tough."

Li Li Banfeng looked at Zhen Zhen Luoming and said: "Calculate it; you go first."

"I won't go first!" Zhen Zhen Luoming shook his head, "I don't care about that little money, nor do I fight for that priority. That is Boss Yu over there, right? Ask her, how much money did she spend just making battle robes for us? The silk shop in Green Water City is almost all put into it!"

Yu Nan replied: "Senior, if you have something to say, just say it; don't drag me into it. I led our Yu family sect to fight.

We have no other ability, we only know how to make two battle robes; being able to fulfill this duty makes us happy in our hearts; Senior doesn't need to worry about other things."

"I'm speaking up for you, and you really don't know what's good for you!" Zhen Zhen Luoming rolled his eyes at Yu Nan and looked at Qin Qin Tianjiu, "Your Three-Head Sect died so many people; you and Li Qi are like brothers; it's right for you to risk your life for him, but who should those dead brothers go to for justice? Is no one going to manage their funeral affairs?"

Qin Qin Tianjiu said: "I will manage this matter, and it must be me who manages it, but this matter has nothing to do with Seventh Brother."

Zhen Zhen Luoming frowned: "How can it have nothing to do with him? Isn't he the big boss of Like Puluozhou?"

Qin Qin Tianjiu looked at the crowd and said: "Everyone, this junior has overstepped today and will say a few more words. How many sects are there in Like Puluozhou, big and small?

I can't count them clearly. This time we fought, everyone who should have come came. I think it was right to come.

On the territory of the Three-Head Sect, whether it's a dance hall, theater, wine house, or tea house, even if it's a noodle seller on the side of the road, as long as they sell a bowl, there is a share of the profit for my Three-Head Sect.

This money is their hard-earned money; we collected it, we ate it; when it's our turn to shed blood and risk our lives, there shouldn't be the slightest ambiguity."

"Don't make it sound so good!" Zhen Zhen Luoming sank his face, "When we were fighting, the Green Water City side was still holding song meetings! Has anyone ever cared about our life or death?"

Liao Liao Zihui spoke up: "I love listening to songs and singing songs. Whether it's singing songs or selling noodles, people have sweated drops of sweat for Like Puluozhou. Now that it's our turn to exert strength, where do you get so much resentment?

I am an outsider and shouldn't say too much. It is right for our Guanfang Hall to exert strength and spend money; we have nothing to calculate with Seventh Young Master."

Zhen Zhen Luoming waved his hand: "Director Liao, we don't have as thick a family foundation as you; you don't calculate, but I calculate!"

Zhang Zhang Xiuling nodded: "Fine, Senior, you calculate the accounts clearly; from now on, none of us will owe you anything!"

Zhen Zhen Luoming stopped talking; after saying so much, no one responded to him at all, and even Bing Bing Suling and Liu Liu Hutian, who had been supporting him, said nothing.

These people all have family businesses in Like Puluozhou; if they really tore their faces apart, I'm afraid life wouldn't be easy in the future.

They didn't want to calculate, but Li Li Banfeng still had to calculate; he handed this matter to Ma Wu and Xiao Pang.

Those who exerted more strength shouldn't suffer a loss and must be compensated.

Those who didn't exert strength shouldn't pick up cheap bargains; whether they are powerful figures or sects, they must be made to make up for it.

Those who colluded with the enemy will be severely punished without exception.

With all matters arranged properly, Ling Ling Bai Tao stood up and said:

"Nei Zhou might not give up just like that; please open the boundary line; I have to take people back to Bai Nian Commandery." Li Li Banfeng was about to say this: "From now on, there will be no more boundary lines between Baiji Commandery and the underground city."

Ling Ling Bai Tao was shocked: "But without the boundary line, we will—"

Li Li Banfeng said: "From now on, people from Baiji Commandery can come and go as they please. Those willing to stay, I will give heavy rewards; those unwilling to stay, I will help them set up a family business."

Xu Han smiled, and Zhang Wanlong also smiled.

They knew how bitterly the heroes of Baiji Commandery had lived.

Ling Ling Bai Tao's eyes were filled with tears, not knowing how to express his gratitude.

He was fortunate not to have thanked him; Li Li Banfeng felt he couldn't afford it.

Zhen Zhen Luoming stared and said: "What is this for? If Nei Zhou attacks from Baiji Commandery, won't the entire Three-San San San Tou Cha be wide open?"

Li Li Banfeng lifted the brim of his hat and looked at Zhen Zhen Luoming: "When Baiji Commandery was risking their lives, you were also watching coldly, right? You were also enjoying happiness elsewhere, right?

From today on, there will be no boundary lines between Baiji Commandery and the Year Wasteland. From today on, the heroes of Like Puluozhou cannot fight alone!

All forces in Like Puluozhou must recruit personnel to guard the border."

Zhen Zhen Luoming looked around; others said nothing, but Old Mother Ku nodded slightly.

The Heavenly Maiden listened to Li Li Banfeng and immediately withdrew these two boundary lines.

Li Li Banfeng asked the Old Train to reorganize the defense of the Three-San San San Tou Cha and the Year Wasteland; he himself had two urgent matters to do.

"There are two hidden dangers that must be cut off."

Zhao Zhao Xiaowan guessed Li Li Banfeng's thoughts: "One is the Great Totem, and the other is the Jade Seal; these two hidden dangers are not easy to deal with."
