Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When the big shots of the Southwest Town garrison came out, the soldiers who saw this were shocked beyond words.
What a scene.
Even the big shots came out.
What were they doing?
The next moment, everyone saw these people walk straight to the car and stop in front of it.
“Oh my God.”
“They came out to greet that guy?”
“Who exactly is that guy?”
“…”
There was an uproar. Everyone saw the young man in the officer’s car and could not help but guess his identity.
“Little brother, you’re finally here.”
At this moment, Long Zhiming walked to the car and said to Li Hao.
“Since I promised you, I’ll definitely come!” Li Hao spoke again, calmly. Then he turned off the engine, opened the door, and got out.
“Huh? So young?”
“He can save the Governor?”
“It’s unlikely…”
“…”
When these big shots saw that the person who got out of the car was actually such a young man, they were also surprised.
Clearly, to them, the guy in front of them did not look like he could save their boss.
This time, Long Zhiming did not bring Master Sanyang back. He only said that he had found someone who could save the Governor.
The Governor was their boss and the number one person in the entire Southwest Town.
Their Governor was called Nie Tianyun. He was like a military spirit to the defenders of Southwest Town. However, many years ago, he had been plotted against and injured.
At this moment, seeing the person Long Zhiming said could save the Governor, they expressed their doubts.
“Come, come, come. Little brother, let me introduce you. This is the deputy garrison commander of our town, Yue Qianshan… This is the garrison commander, Qi Lianshan, and the deputy garrison commander, Li Daoyuan…” Long Zhiming introduced Li Hao.
Li Hao smiled and nodded, feeling shocked.
They were really all big shots.
The Governor was the big shot of the Southwest Town’s garrison.
Below the Governor was the Deputy Governor, then the Military Envoy, Deputy Military Envoy, and the Envoy…
Long Zhiming was an envoy, so he was also the big shot of the garrison in Southwest Town.
“Envoy Long, is this the person you found to save the Governor?”
At this moment, someone asked Long Zhiming in a low voice with a hint of suspicion.
The person who spoke was the Military Envoy, Qi Lianshan, just like the middle-aged man in the lead…
Beside him, the others looked at Long Zhiming.
“That’s right. He’s young, but he’s not ordinary. He’ll be able to save the Governor!”
Long Zhiming’s eyes narrowed when he heard Qi Lianshan’s words, but he nodded heavily. He had seen Li Hao’s methods with his own eyes and was determined.
“Hehe… Not an ordinary person? Could he also be a martial artist? He actually lent him the commander’s car! He’s just a brat who’s still wet behind the ears. Can he save the Governor? Long Zhiming, don’t come back empty-handed because you can’t find Master Sanyang. If you can’t save the Governor…” Qi Lianshan laughed in disdain and said calmly.
As the Military Envoy, Qi Lianshan was not really mocking him. Instead, he was filled with pride. When he found out that Long Zhiming had actually lent his car to this guy, he felt very uncomfortable.
Although the car was not his, he felt that it represented the garrison. The guy in front of him was not qualified to drive it.
Moreover, now, even they had to come out to welcome this guy. It would be fine if the other party was a cultivator expert like Master Sanyang, but he was a young man in his twenties. This made Qi Lianshan even more unhappy.
Hearing this, Li Hao frowned slightly. A sharp glint flashed across his eyes, but he did not speak.
When Long Zhiming heard this, his expression changed. Not to be outdone, he said to Qi Lianshan in a low voice, “Why? What’s the meaning of this? Do you not believe me? If you don’t believe me, go find someone who can save the Governor…”
“It’s not that I don’t believe you, but I don’t believe him! If I go, Master Sanyang might really be brought back!”
Qi Lianshan’s expression darkened when he heard Long Zhiming’s words.
“Hehe… What is Master Sanyang? Can he compare to the young man?”
Long Zhiming laughed again and said sternly, “In my opinion, Master Sanyang who collects money without any pity is not even half as good as Li Hao.”
“Him? Hehe…”
Qi Lianshan looked down on Li Hao.
“What if he saves the Governor? Why don’t we make a bet?” Long Zhiming spoke again. Since the other party did not give him face, he did not stand on ceremony.
“Bet? Long Zhiming, you want to bet with me? Okay, if you don’t bet, who the hell is a coward? Let’s bet. What should we bet?” Qi Lianshan’s eyes widened. He was not afraid and said directly.
“If he can’t save the Governor, I’ll resign from my position and let Zhu Dahai take over, okay?” Long Zhiming immediately said. Back when he sat in this position, Qi Lianshan was already very unconvinced. He felt that it should be a guy called Zhu Dahai who he had brought up.
Everyone was shocked by Long Zhiming’s words. He took a bet with his future. He was not very old, only in his forties, but he was already in the position of an Envoy. He definitely had a high chance of further promotions in the future.
But at this moment, he actually gambled on the position of an envoy.
“Okay!”
Qi Lianshan heard Long Zhiming’s words and agreed. It was exactly what he wanted.
“Enough!”
At this moment, Yue Qianshan spoke again.
“Are you two done arguing?”
“He wanted to bet! Deputy Governor Yue, don’t worry about it! Whoever doesn’t bet is the grandson…” said Qi Lianshan.
“If he is unable to save the Governor, I’ll step down from this position, but what if he saves the guardian? Qi Lianshan, what do you say?” Long Zhiming looked at Qi Lianshan and spoke bluntly.
“I’ll step down from my position too, okay?”
Qi Lianshan was also a fool. He said without thinking.
“F*ck, is there a need to take such a big bet?”
“They’re all brothers. Why are both of them doing this?”
“What are they doing?”
“…”
The expressions of the people around them changed when they heard the words of the two sides. This was too much.
“I don’t need your rank. If you lose, how about you give him your car to drive?” Long Zhiming spoke again, calmly.
