Death Row Ability: Blood Battle Level Up

Chapter 29: Arrangement, Tie Family Caravan



Two days later.

Yumen Town.

This is the largest national gate in the eastern part of Daqian, and it is also the first town in the east after entering Daqian.

Under the scorching sun.

One man and one horse slowly approached the gatekeeper's checkpoint.

Seeing this, a young gatekeeper raised his hand and shouted, "Stop those who come, show your tooth tag when entering the town."

Li Dao stopped, took out the tooth tag from his arms and handed it over.

The young gatekeeper took the tooth tag, examined it carefully, looked up and down at the dusty Li Dao, and asked, "Where do you come from and where are you going?"

"Come from Changgu Town and go to the Imperial Capital."

"Canggu Town?"

The young gatekeeper asked, "Can you meet Commander Wei?"

Li Dao put his hands on his waist.

This action instantly alerted the soldiers behind the gatekeeper. They all drew out their swords at their waists, as if they were ready to charge at any time.

Li Dao was not surprised by the soldiers' reaction, but he did not stop, but quickly took out the black iron sword from his waist, "I wonder if your Excellency recognizes this black iron sword."

The young gatekeeper raised his hand to stop the movements of the soldiers behind him. He took the black iron sword with his backhand and looked at it. When he saw a certain mark, his eyes lit up.

"It turns out that he is really from Commander Wei. He is so rude and disrespectful."

The young gatekeeper's attitude changed drastically. He suddenly became happy from being cautious before, and politely handed back the Black Iron Knife.

Li Dao took the Black Iron Sword and asked, "Wei Yun told you?"

"Um."

The young gatekeeper smiled and said, "Commander Wei told me a few days ago that one of his friends will enter the customs here and ask me to help him. It seems that this young master should be you."

Because I don't know Li Dao, but considering his age, calling him Young Master is not an exaggeration.

"Then how does he ask you to help me?"

He was not surprised by Wei Yun's initiative. After all, the guy owed him a favor.

"Master, are you going to the imperial capital?"

"yes."

"Young master, I don't know that this eastern frontier is far away from the imperial capital. It is difficult for ordinary people to reach the imperial capital all the way alone. Therefore, people in Yumen Town generally go to the imperial capital together in groups. We are not able to send you to the imperial capital, but we can help Young Master recommends a suitable team."

Under the explanation of the young gatekeeper, Li Dao quickly learned about the situation in Yumen Town.

Because Yumen Town is located in a confidential location on the frontier and is extremely remote.

Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary individuals to reach here, and often only some caravans traveling in the frontier fortress will travel between the frontier fortress towns.

If an individual wants to go to the outside world from here, the best way is to join a team and travel together.

Li Dao agreed with the group formation.

Although he has a map from Yumen Town to Daqian Imperial Capital, he has difficulty reading modern maps, let alone such ancient maps.

If he really had to figure it out on his own, the journey of half a month would probably take several months.

So the best way is to find someone to lead the way.

Li Dao nodded, "Then I'll trouble you."

After saying that, he took out a piece of silver worth ten ounces from his arms and threw it over.

"Young master, you are too polite. You are Commander Wei's friend."

The young gatekeeper took the silver and smiled bitterly.

"You're welcome. Wei Yun is Wei Yun, and I am me. If he has any problems, ask him to come to me. The money will be used to buy drinks for the brothers."

Li Dao said casually.

Hearing this, the young gatekeeper didn't know what to say. He could only clasp his fists and say, "Don't worry, young master, we will definitely arrange it for you."

Under the leadership of the young gatekeeper, Li Dao led the horse and quickly entered Yumen Town.

After entering Yumen Town, Li Daocai discovered that compared to the appearance, the inside of Yumen Town was obviously much more prosperous than the outside.

Although Yumen Town is not big, it is full of everything.

There are carpets and merchants hawking goods everywhere along the way, and there are all kinds of restaurants and terraces.

Seemingly sensing Li Dao's doubts, the gatekeeper explained from the side, "These are businessmen who come and go. Although the border fortress is remote, it is a place to make money for businessmen from various countries. Most businessmen do not want to go too far. We wholesale goods directly here, and gradually the place becomes prosperous."

"But sir, don't think they are very enthusiastic, but they are neither businessmen nor treacherous. Once there is any trouble, these people will be the fastest runners."

Having said this, the young gatekeeper's words were full of contempt.

Soon after, the young gatekeeper took Li Dao to an inn.

Standing outside the door, Li Dao saw the plaque on the inn at a glance.

'Tiejia Inn'

There is also a small plaque below with the same four words written on it.

'Tiejia Escort Agency'

"I didn't expect that there is also Tie family's property here."

I know something about Li Dao of the Tie family.

The first royal merchant of the Daqian Dynasty.

Industries are spread throughout Daqian, and even the surrounding countries have Tie family industries, and the scale is not small.

Its Tie family industry can be said to be as rich as any other country.

Moreover, in addition to wealth, the power of the Tie family is also very important in Daqian.

In every generation of the Tie family, a woman will marry into the royal family and marry into the Daqian royal family, and her status is not low, so the Tie family has always been a relative of the emperor.

It is precisely because of this that the Tie family has never been afraid of the Daqian royal family, but there are always signs of support.

The two walked into the building.

I saw that the people inside were all a group of people who looked very similar to Li Dao.

The young gatekeeper led Li Dao to the counter.

"Xiaoqian, please ask your shopkeeper to come out."

The gatekeeper said directly to the waiter at the counter.

Seeing clearly who was coming, the waiter smiled and said, "Okay, Uncle Zhao, please wait a moment. I'll go and notify the shopkeeper right away."

Not long after, the waiter led a fat man in fancy clothes out.

"Brother Zhao, what brought you here today?"

The shopkeeper said cheerfully.

"Don't get too close."

The young gatekeeper said directly, "Do you have any large groups going to the Imperial Capital recently? I need you to help me arrange for someone to go in."

"A large group going to the Imperial Capital?"

The shopkeeper thought for a while and seemed to have thought of something. He leaned closer and whispered, "There are indeed large groups. They are our own group of the Tie family. However, it is a bit strict to get in. You need to be clean. Brother Zhao, you... "

The young gatekeeper glared at the shopkeeper, "Do you think the people I brought here are not innocent in their feelings?"

The shopkeeper smiled coquettishly, "Don't dare, don't dare, that's what I said."

The young gatekeeper said, "Forget it, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore, help me arrange this friend in, I'll count you as a favor."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, the value of this favor was not low, but thinking of the person leading the group this time, he asked again uncertainly.

"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with the people you brought?"

The young goalkeeper suddenly lost his temper, "Do you want me to put my head here as a guarantee?"

"no, I'm fine."

At this point, the shopkeeper also understood that the person behind the young gatekeeper must be really innocent, so he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother Zhao, I guarantee with the honor of the Tie family that the brother behind you will reach the imperial capital safely."

"That's good."

The young gatekeeper turned his head and looked at Li Dao, "Sir, you can just stay at this inn from now on. The innkeeper will help you make arrangements."

"Thank you."

Li Dao said seriously.

Although the exchange between the two was very low, he could hear it clearly with his keen senses.

So he also knew that the young gatekeeper handled this matter very carefully.

The young gatekeeper laughed and said, "Commander Wei saved my life on the battlefield. If you are his friend, you are my friend. You are welcome."

Soon after, the young gatekeeper left, leaving Li Dao alone in the inn.

The shopkeeper greeted warmly, "Guests can stay in the store first, and we can leave tomorrow."

After speaking, he patted the waiter next to him and said, "Why don't you go clean up this young man's room?"

Under the leadership of the waiter, Li Dao came to a room.

The waiter asked, "Is there anything else you need, sir?"

Li Dao looked down at his clothes, took out a piece of silver from his arms and threw it over, "Prepare some hot water and a set of clean clothes for me."

The waiter took the money and showed a cheerful expression, "Okay, sir, I promise to arrange it for you."

After a stick of incense.

A bucket of hot water, a set of black clothes, and a meal were placed in the room.

Li Dao breathed a sigh of relief, "I can finally take a hot bath."

Yumen Town is okay. In Changgu Town, due to the remoteness, water resources are very scarce. Drinking water is okay, but taking a bath is impossible. At most, you can wipe it with a towel dipped in water.

He took off his worn clothes, revealing his strong muscles under the clothes.

After strengthening his body time and time again, his figure became more and more perfect, and every muscle fit perfectly on his body.

After soaking in the water, he breathed a sigh of relief again. It had been more than three months since he last took a bath when he was Uncle Anyuan.

"panel."

While taking a bath, Li Dao called softly.

[Master: Li Dao]

[Physique: 87.81]

[Available attributes: 0]

Since the last time he killed the Xiantian from the Luoyun Tribe, he has no chance to earn attribute points, so his physique has been fixed.

"When the trip to the imperial capital is over, we have to think about the future."

...

Early the next morning.

"Dong dong dong!"

The waiter stood outside the house and knocked on the door and said, "Sir, the shopkeeper asked me to inform you that the team is about to set off."

"Crunch!"

The door opened, and the waiter was about to say something, but suddenly froze on the spot, "This young man...who are you?"

"Where was the young master yesterday?"

At this time, the man inside the door was dressed in a long black coat, with a tall and straight figure, black hair like ink, a bunch of black hair stood up by a hairband, and two strands of hair naturally hanging down from his temples.

In particular, he has a face that is handsome and strong, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. Anyone who comes here will call him a handsome boy.

"No need to look for it, I am the same person yesterday."

Li Dao reminded him loudly.

"Um?"

The waiter looked in disbelief, unable to put the young man in front of him together with the dusty figure from yesterday.

It took a while before he came back to his senses and said, "Young master, I'm really sorry. You look so good-looking, I don't dare to recognize you."

It's completely off-putting to say this.

Li Dao understood the waiter's reaction because he was also shocked by his appearance yesterday.

Although his appearance was quite good before entering the death row camp, due to drinking and eating meat all year round, and being nostalgic for brothels and other places, his body was damaged and his complexion was lackluster. Therefore, he looked a little puffy and sluggish. The standard of 100% was at best. Just score seventy points.

But now that his physique has improved, it seems that his appearance has also undergone a series of adjustments and improvements. His appearance has also improved a lot, and he can score at least 90 out of 100 points.

He felt that if he returned to the imperial capital, he wouldn't have to worry about people from the past recognizing him as the former Li Dao, because he was just the same in appearance as before, but his specific appearance was very different. It was like he was a completely different person. .

"Okay, did your shopkeeper tell me where to gather?"

Li Dao asked.

The waiter said quickly, "Young master, I don't know. You can go downstairs and find the shopkeeper."

Under the leadership of the waiter, Li Dao met the shopkeeper again.

When they saw Li Dao, the shopkeeper and the waiter showed confusion in their eyes.

He didn't react until the waiter explained, and he immediately showed a warm smile.

"Young Master, just come with me."

...

On the way to the meeting point, the shopkeeper looked at the knife on Li Dao's waist and asked, "May I ask, Master, if you have any cultivation skills?"

Li said, "What does this mean?"

The shopkeeper explained, "To be honest with you, the team you are going to this time is a convoy organized by a big shot from my Tie family. If you want to join, you must have an identity."

"If the young master is not good at martial arts, I will arrange for the young master to be a groom or other ordinary person."

"If the young master has martial arts, then he can be arranged as a escort. Compared to the groom, the escort will be treated better along the way."

As if he had thought of something on the spur of the moment, the shopkeeper soon explained, "Of course, even the escorts don't have to worry about safety issues. There are not many short-sighted roadblocks in Daqian who dare to block the convoy of my Tiejia Escort Agency."

Li Dao thought for a while and said, "Then arrange for me to be a guard."

Although he has no cultivation base, his body is much stronger than any other cultivation level.

"OK."

Not long after leaving, a motorcade suddenly appeared in front of Li Dao.

Looking around, there are hundreds of carriages in the convoy, stretching for hundreds of meters. Most of them are goods, a few are carriages for people, and there are many people escorting them.

"As expected of the Tie family."

With his keen perception, Li Dao discovered that many of these escorts had cultivation abilities.

"Spectacular, right?"

The shopkeeper explained from the side, "That is to say, our Tie family can organize such a large fleet, and ordinary families simply cannot do it."

The shopkeeper's words were full of pride as a member of the Tie family.

This is the custom in ancient times. There are seven rank officials in front of the prime minister.

If the family status is high, even if you are a domestic slave, your status will be raised accordingly.

The shopkeeper took Li Dao to the middle of the convoy and found a guard captain in charge of escorting the convoy.

"Boss Qian, please help me arrange this."

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he stuffed a purse into his hand.

The man took the purse and weighed it, showing a satisfied smile, "Okay, leave this matter to me."

After sizing up Li Dao, he waved his hand and said, "Boy, just wait for the team to set off and follow me."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper turned around and said, "Young master, just follow the convoy. When you get to the imperial capital, you can just leave the convoy."

Li Dao cupped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper waved his hand, "Haha, sir, you don't have to be like this, it's all a matter of favor."

What a few people didn't notice was that outside a luxury carriage not far away from them, a little girl wearing a long green dress watched this scene.
