Chapter 473 A show of force
The penniless young man Wei finally lowered his arrogant head under the temptation of providing food and housing.
Relying on your own hands, there is nothing to be ashamed of!
In this way, Wei Zelong successfully became the guard captain of a caravan under the Wanqiong Chamber of Commerce.
The caravan gave him a suit of armor, and after putting it on, he looked really impressive.
There is a saber on his waist, which is a sacred magic weapon. Each captain will be issued one.
This shows how wealthy this caravan is.
The caravan has a unified residence, which is in a huge mansion in Wanzhong City.
Since Wei Zelong is the captain and a formation master, he can live in a private courtyard and enjoy good treatment.
He has a guard team of more than ten people.
This escort team is all newly recruited practitioners, and they are quite dissatisfied with the young Wei Zelong.
"I don't understand, why does this guy become our captain?"
"Brother Li, you have lost your life five times. I remember that the position of captain was originally reserved for you, right?"
"Yes, no matter how you look at it, Brother Li is more capable than that silly boy."
More than a dozen guards gathered in the courtyard, with dissatisfaction in their eyes.
The person called Brother Li is a middle-aged man named Li Tie, who also came to Wanzhong City from other cities.
Originally, he was determined to win the position of captain of the guard. With his level, he really didn't have much pressure to win, but who could have expected that a young boy would appear halfway through.
This kid looks to be in his early twenties at most, why should he stand on his head?
"Since you all praise Li so much, then Li is not ignorant of praise. Let me put it here for now. As long as Li can be the captain, everyone will get convenience from Li in the future."
After all, Li Tie has rich experience and knows how to win people's hearts.
As expected, when those people heard this, they all clapped their chests and became so proud.
"Brother Li, I support you in taking the captain away from that kid!"
"Yes, the capable person lives here, why should he?"
"Whoever is stronger and has the bigger fists has the final say."
"I'll give that kid a kick in the ass later!"
Under the urging of many guards, Li Tie became more and more confident.
He even felt that the captain position should have been his.
Soon, Wei Zelong walked out of the yard.
He was neatly dressed and looked calm, "I just checked the itinerary. There is a mission to escort the caravan tomorrow. The convoy needs to pass through a monster forest. I heard that there are barbarians gathering inside, which is very dangerous. You should be prepared and set off early tomorrow morning. "
After the words fell, many guards looked disdainful.
No one responded to Wei Zelong's words, and the atmosphere in the venue fell into an awkward situation.
Wei Zelong glanced across the field. Although he had been well protected by Wei Chen in the past few years, it did not mean that he did not understand the ways of the world at all. He could imagine the scene in front of him even if he thought about it with his toes.
This group of people are dissatisfied with themselves.
Li Tie stood up with a sneer and emphasized, "Captain, with you leading us, what danger can't be avoided? I heard that you are also an array master. Hey, carve a few runes on each of us. How about the barbarians?" What's there to be afraid of?"
As soon as Li Tie spoke, the others immediately laughed, "Yes, Brother Li is right."
"I heard that the formation masters have the means to carve miniature magic circles. Let's carve a miniature magic circle for each of us. Let's treat it as a meeting gift from you, captain, how about it?"
"Yes, captain, you are so strong, please help us."
A group of people, with shady and strange attitudes, sang against Wei Zelong.
Wei Zelong smiled calmly and said, "I have given the order. We will gather here early tomorrow morning."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
There was a burst of boos from behind.
"You see, this kid is a coward!"
"If he dares to provoke him like this, he doesn't dare to fight back, which shows that he has a silver-like wax gun tip."
"Return to the formation mage, bullshit."
"Such a waste, is he capable of being our captain?"
The guards laughed and did not take Wei Zelong seriously.
In their opinion, Wei Zelong was afraid.
If it wasn't fear, why didn't you dare to fight back?
Li Tie smiled disdainfully, "I thought he was very capable, but he is just a fool. Within three days, the position of captain will definitely fall into my hands!"
"Don't worry, Brother Li, brothers all support you!"
After returning to the room, Wei Zelong opened his palm, and the two runes inside were glowing faintly.
These two runes are the thunder talismans with the strongest attack power. As long as they are activated with spiritual energy, they can instantly summon thunder to strike down, completely turning the entire world into a sea of purgatory thunder.
In this group of guards, except for a few who could persist under the sea of thunder, the rest were either killed or seriously injured.
"Ha, you want to give me a kick."
Wei Zelong sneered, then took a deep breath and dispersed the runes.
He really almost took action before.
But in the end, reason prevailed.
If I take action now, I will be irresponsible. If the news reaches the ears of the Chamber of Commerce, they will definitely think that I have a bad temper and do not have the ability to manage a guard team.
Wait for tomorrow!
If tomorrow, they are still so virtuous and delay the departure of the convoy, then there is no need for him to hold back.
call.
Wei Zelong calmed down and closed his eyes.
He must first settle down in this city before he can find the time to find out about Brother Chen.
In addition, the forces in Zhongzhou are complicated, and we must be cautious and careful.
There will be many similar things in the future.
We must be careful.
After all, in Zhongzhou, no one can protect us.
The next morning, Wei Zelong stood in front of the gate of the house, waiting quietly.
He had been standing here for an hour, but none of the guards in the house came at all!
Wei Zelong estimated the time. At this time, the convoy should have packed up everything and was ready to set off outside the city.
"Hey, isn't this the captain? You got up so early, why didn't I hear you crow?"
A guard came up with a smile and joked with Wei Zelong.
"Good morning."
Wei Zelong showed a harmless smile, looking a little silly.
The guard secretly despised him in his heart. This kid is really a soft egg and a coward. I almost pointed at your nose and scolded you in person, but you were still indifferent. It's really despicable!
Soon, several more guards came.
They were lazy, yawning, and looked listless.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Wei Zelong asked with "concern".
"Captain, we drank together until late at night, and a few brothers are still asleep. Otherwise, don't go out for today's mission, or you can go to guard by yourself."
A guard complained.
Tap, tap, tap.
At this time, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded outside.
Here they come.
Wei Zelong raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.
After being with Ye Chen for so long, he unknowingly learned a bit of black belly.
