Chapter 270: Balance

balance

The demonic beasts outside the city, as those people of insight said, really receded after three days, coming like a tide, going like a tide, no one knows, these demonic beasts went crazy and left hundreds of thousands of corpses here, what the hell is going on.

There were no casualties among the people in the city, and what was consumed was just the magic crystals accumulated by the major families for many years, but it was not a loss, you must know that there were so many corpses outside the city, even if there was only one magic crystal in a hundred demonic beasts, the number of magic crystals was also thousands.

Coupled with those corpses, they are excellent materials in themselves, both as ingredients and as alchemical materials, which are heartwarming.

It's just that I'm afraid that this is a strategy of the Warcraft, and if there is an ambush somewhere, it won't be a good thing to go and return, so Falling Snow City decided to delay it for a day and then open the big array, anyway, those corpses can't run away over there.

As a result, something strange happened, just one night, and when I looked back the next day, there was nothing under the city walls, only scattered flesh and blood that had accumulated into large and small lakes.

The snow is shocking!

No one knew what was happening, not even the sentry guards on the city walls noticed what was happening, and such a strange event was like a great enemy, delaying the celebration that had been scheduled for the day the monster retreated for another two days. The big array slowly withdrew after two days, falling into a deep sleep, after all, the number of magic crystals needed to maintain the falling snow array was too much, and now there were not so many magic crystals to consume in the falling snow city.

The sentry sent out to traverse dozens of miles quickly turned back, then poked out for dozens of miles, and finally a hundred miles, and it was only at that time that Falling Snow City was sure which demonic beasts had really retreated.

The whole Falling Snow City cheered and thundered.

When the Warcraft besieged the city, even if you knew that as long as the Great Array was not broken, which Warcraft could not do anything, but what if the Great Array was broken?

Everyone has this thought, and no one dares to say it, there is no absolute in the world, in fact, if there is a fifth-order demonic beast in the demonic beasts besieging the city, then without the city lord in charge, only the snowfall array with only thirty percent of the power will definitely not be able to stop these demonic beast armies.

When the time comes, as soon as the city is broken, hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts will enter the city, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to land all the corpses.

The monster did not retreat for a day, this thought was like a dark cloud pressing on everyone's heart, the fear of death was like a sharp sickle, no matter where he went, what he was doing, he always felt that the hairs stood on end, and it seemed that in the next second, death was coming.

It was only at this time that it was confirmed that all those demonic beasts had really retreated, and the people of Falling Snow City seemed to have really come to life, and every household was lit up with lights, which was even more lively than the New Year.

The hearts of the people in the city who were disturbed by the bitter word assassin before seem to have settled down a lot at this time, at least at this time, no one said anything frustrating at this time.

However, during these days, a news came out of nowhere in the city, saying that the first-order professional brought back by Miss Xueyu had a great connection with the mysterious assassin.

As for where this connection is, the vague news does not say it, and ordinary people just listen to it as a pleasure after tea and dinner, what's the matter, no matter how powerful your bitter assassin is, he can still kill all the millions of people in Falling Snow City.

Only those who regard the bitter word assassin as a confidant are extremely concerned about this news, and even when the demonic beast retreats, they can't help but be jealous of Li Qi.

Outside the small courtyard, there are naturally more unusual people these days.

Li Qi is not blind, he naturally knows these things, but he knows what he knows, and he can't stop people from doing anything, besides, is it possible to kill all these people? He is not such a murderous person.

The weather is cold, since they are willing to freeze outside, let them freeze, Li Qi has no pity, and even wants to laugh.

According to Xue Yu's words, Li Qi will definitely pretend to be a good baby during this time, and when the celebration banquet is completed, let Uncle De send him back to Harman City, these people are destined not to find out. Even if they found out something, when they arrived in Harman City, it was not their territory, so would they dare to deal with the Folding Crane Regiment behind Li Qi? Not to mention the old man Guo behind the Folding Crane Regiment, the Folding Crane Regiment itself was enough for them to drink a pot.

Although the result had been written at the beginning, Li Qi was still a little uncomfortable with these people spying on him like this, just like he had countless pairs of eyes staring at the dark place when he went to the toilet.

At the beginning, Xue Yu was worried that Li Qi would not be able to hold back his temperament and make a big killing, but after observing for a long time, he put his mind at ease and concentrated on the celebration banquet.

said that it was a celebration banquet, but it was just a gold paste on his face, the meaning of formalism far exceeded the actual meaning, Xue Yu also told Li Qi about the meaning of holding a celebration banquet that day, just to make ordinary people feel at ease, roughly you see that the major families in Harman City still have the heart to hold a banquet, so how can Snow City be in danger.

Li Qi didn't understand it, and he didn't want to understand it, he just felt that the current Senior Sister Xueyu seemed to be very tired.

He misses his brothers a little.

It is said that Yan Xi, one of the Three Tigers, couldn't find the assassin for a long time, so he actually sat around the courtyard himself, eyeing the young man who was said to have been recuperating from his injuries in the courtyard.

It's just that if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, if you haven't been thinking about using Li Qi's bait to fish out the bitter word assassin, Yan Xi would have gone in and taken off that person's head.

Everyone was skeptical that Li Qi had anything to do with the legendary bitter word assassin, but no one believed that Li Qi was a bitter word assassin.

Whether it was the heads of the families who saw Li Qi fighting with Chen Tu on the city wall, or those ordinary people who didn't know why, they all knew one thing, Li Qi was a mage, even if he was profound, he was still a mage.

A powerful Assassin may be a weak mage who needs to borrow the Forbidden Ring or something, but it is absolutely impossible for a powerful mage to become an Assassin.

This is common sense.

No one thought that someone would break common sense.

The Wu family in Falling Snow City.

The head of the Wu family sat at the head of the council hall, one hand supporting his chin, drowsy.

Wu Yinshan saw this scene when he came in, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, since his father became the head of the family, how long had he not seen his father show such a look.

He lowered his head and stood on tiptoe slightly, ready to exit through the doorway.

"Come here, I'm just taking a nap, I'm not asleep. It's just that Fang took a step back, and the voice of the head of the Wu family sounded in front of him.

Wu Yinshan was a little hesitant rarely, and he owed: "Father has to guard against the City Lord's Mansion these days, and he has to deal with the red sleeves on the other hand, and he has worked extremely hard, if it is not something important, the son is waiting outside, and the father can rest for a while." ”

"It doesn't matter. The head of the Wu family waved at him, unable to hide the tiredness in his eyes.

Whether it is the City Lord's Mansion or the Peerless City, it is an existence that the Wu family is difficult to compete with, but it does not mean that the Wu family has no power to fight back, the City Lord's Mansion or the Peerless City wants to deal with the Wu family, and it cannot bypass the other families in Falling Snow City.

The Wu family is a top family, and some people covet the Wu family, but Falling Snow City has existed for 10,000 years, relying on the way of balance, if the situation in Falling Snow City is compared to a balance, the family headed by the Wu family and the Jin family in Harman City falls on one side, and on the other side is the family headed by the City Lord's Mansion.

If the Wu family is rashly destroyed like this, it will undoubtedly be a very serious damage to the balance, the Wu family can be destroyed, but it cannot be destroyed so quickly, it is necessary to cut the flesh with a blunt knife, little by little.

While constantly weakening the Wu family, there must be another family that grows up slowly until it can completely replace the Wu family, so other families are happy to see the Wu family weakened, there are so many bowls of meat, and while the Wu family is weakened, others can also share a little more.

So the head of the Wu family is not worried about this matter, not to mention, who doesn't have a backstage, his Wu family's backstage is still one top and one big, he is not afraid of the Wu family being destroyed, what he is afraid of is that by taking this opportunity, the city lord's mansion and the red sleeves will take a few pieces of fat meat on the Wu family's body.

Some precedents can't be opened, such as this matter, if the City Lord's Mansion and Red Sleeves get the benefits, then in the eyes of other families, the Wu family no longer has the domineering of the top family.

At that time, as long as they have the courage, they will come up and take a bite, you take a bite and I will take a bite, and when the Wu family is extremely weak, I am afraid that even the backers behind them will abandon them.

After all, who would want a family that has no value, at that time, I am afraid that it will be the time for the Wu family to fall.

This process will take a long time, but future generations will remember that the weakening of the Wu family began in his hands, and he will be stinking for 10,000 years, which is something he can't bear.

He rubbed his eyebrows, patted the chair next to him, and motioned for his son to sit down.

Wu Yinshan carefully put on half of his buttocks, at this time, he didn't dare to provoke his Lao Tzu to be angry, in case he sprinkled all the anger of these days on himself, it would be a disaster.

"Yin Shan, have you heard of the celebration banquet that the City Lord's Mansion has taken the lead in preparing for?" The head of the Wu family slowly spoke while rubbing his brows.

"I heard that, I heard that Xue Yu wanted to do it, this hand is not clever, after all, she has only been acting as the city lord for a while, but it can't be said to be a stinky chess, it can still play some role, if you let your son say it, you can only say that it can be seen." Wu Yinshan thought for a while and slowly spoke.

"It's a good one. The head of the Wu family nodded: "If you want to celebrate the banquet, let you lead the team." ”

Wu Yinshan was stunned at first, and then endless joy appeared on his face.

The celebration banquet was led by him by the Wu family, which means that the Wu family announced to the outside world that the person in charge of the house will be changed.
