Chapter 1333: Poolside Confrontation
Do you suspect that the Great Wizard has left something in the lotus pond?"
Qin Fan stopped, looked at Jiang Yanzi and asked.
Jiang Yanzi was silent, she didn't want to know too much about the secrets of the Acropolis, although this ancient city didn't seem to have any contact with the outside world in the years before, but every secret buried here was excavated, it was enough to shake the whole world, they already knew a lot of things about the Acropolis, more, is it really necessary to know?
Once they know, even if they can leave the outer city smoothly, will the outside world still be safe?
She's not a timid person, she just doesn't want to put herself and them at uncontrollable risks because of any gratuitous secrets.
"Let's go and talk about it. ”
Jiang Yanzi sighed softly, her beautiful eyes glanced at the white pu jia on Qin Fan's back, and then continued to walk towards the depths of the forbidden land.
Along the way, there were no corpses in sight, and there were no traces of a fight on the road, proving that the depths of the forbidden land were still in a safe state, but I didn't know how long this state would last.
Lotus pondside.
The fire flickered.
The two of them stood in the distance, and they could see the guards of the family head of the house, led by the head of the family, Wei Qingtian, standing there with torches, confronting Wei Qingyun and Wei Zipei on the opposite side.
"There are no outsiders here, so let's make it clear here if you have to say it. ”
Wei Qingtian looked at Wei Qingyun in front of him, his voice was indifferent, not mixed with the slightest emotion.
Wei Zipei was guarding Wei Qingyun's side, and opposite was the many guards of the family lord's mansion led by Wei Xiaotian, but she didn't have the slightest fear on her face, so she stood proudly in place, confronting everyone with a single body.
"Qingtian, do you really plan to gamble the lives of tens of thousands of city citizens throughout the whole process, and also complete your so-called grand plan hegemony, and you will not hesitate to search for it?" Wei Qingyun said coldly.
"It's not my ambition. ”
Wei Qingtian shook his head and said, "This is the mission of the Acropolis, and it is the fate of the Wei clan!" Since the secret of the city was discovered by outsiders a hundred years ago, we have not been able to escape from this road, continue to walk, the 40,000 citizens in the city can still survive, the loss is only the dozens of babies every year, but if we no longer take this road, the Acropolis has lost the necessity and meaning of existence, those people outside will not sit idly by and watch the existence of such an independent city, they will use all means to destroy here, 40,000 city citizens and Shangyao clan no one can live, if you are the head of the family, what choice will you make?"
"Open the city gate!" Wei Qingyun said in a low voice: "Open the city gate, let the forty thousand city citizens in the city get out of this shackle, they can integrate into society, no one will attack these unarmed and harmless ordinary people, even if they do, it will only be for these special blood types, but it will not cause death, after all, today's society is not a thousand years ago, no one dares to kill so many people, you know this very well, but you don't want to admit it." ”
Wei Qingyun is one of the few people in the existing Acropolis who knows the outside world very well.
In this era, it is impossible to use a butcher's knife against 40,000 people and end their lives because of the words of one person.
As long as they are exposed to the public eye, there are 10,000 reasons to survive, even if those people are unwilling to give up immortality, they only want to use these purebloods, there are more than 40,000 people in the Acropolis, and the purebloods together are not even a hundred, but these 100 people have monopolized the core position of the Acropolis, and behind them, they are the most powerful veins of the Wei Clan.
The life and death of the Acropolis are in their hands, and they would rather gamble the lives of tens of thousands of people throughout the whole journey than put their children and grandchildren in danger.
"So every year, among the babies born, some of them will become mausoleum guards, and some of them will be sent out of the city and become mausoleum keepers, all of whom are wealthy families in the Wei clan, and those who are sent outside the city as soon as they are born, sent to the world, and become the supply of fresh blood for those people.
"It's fate!"
Wei Qingtian's voice suddenly became extremely high-pitched: "People's fate has been divided into three, six, nine and so on before they are born, and some people can get an environment and life that ordinary people can't get from the moment they are born, and everyone is like this! The outside world is like this, the Acropolis is like this, Wei Zipei, if you are not Wei Xiaohan's daughter, but a child of an ordinary family in the Acropolis, do you think you are still qualified to stand here and talk to me?" You have long been sent out of the city, as a dried corpse drained of blood, not some eldest lady, future city lord, do you understand?"
"So, I have to thank you. Wei Zipei said with a pale face.
"You don't have to thank me!"
Wei Qingtian said loudly: "This is the fate of every Acropolis citizen! There is no difference from the outside world, so now that the three generations of Wei Xiaoqin's family have died tragically, and there is no successor to the Acropolis, I can make a promise that you will serve as the position of the law enforcement hall master at the same time before you become the next city lord, and after I retire, you will be the absolute speaker of the entire Acropolis, and the people of the Acropolis will ......share the honor and disgrace because of one person."
"Didn't you always want to be a good head of the family, set up your life for the Wei clan, and set your heart for heaven and earth, this is your best opportunity, aren't you tempted?"
Wei Zipei was stunned, she didn't expect that at this time, Wei Qingtian would say such a thing.
Establish a life for the Wei clan and a heart for heaven and earth, the injustices and resentments she saw in the Acropolis where she was all could be changed by her own strength after she became the head of the family and the head of the law enforcement hall, if this is the case, wouldn't it be impossible?
"You know, the people who should be sent out in the past two years have been sent out, and now the situation in the outside world is a little complicated, and we will not be asked to send people out in a short time, so even if you really kill me now, it will not change anything, you must know that as long as those people in the outside world still covet my Acropolis, even if I die, the next city lord will still do the same thing as I did, but I will let you be the city lord, but in just two years, I will abdicate, and after you inherit the city lord, what should the future of the Acropolis be, you can transform this city according to your ideas, why rush for a while, let the city be destroyed, and tens of thousands of city citizens will die." Wei Qingtian said earnestly.
"This liar, the Acropolis can only exist for two days at most, and he is now deceiving Wei Zipei to put down his fight, just to let himself transfer all the people and things that can be transferred in these two days, and these people who are left behind can follow the Acropolis together. ”
Bai Pujia didn't know when she woke up, she lay on Qin Fan's back, looked at the people facing each other in the distance, and said coldly.
