"Big brother, the city lord is here in person!" Several people were drowsy from the scorching sun, and suddenly when they heard Kuroko say this, they all quickly stood up.

"Changkong, who the hell is it, why are you bothering to inform me!" The voice comes before the person arrives.

Xi Changkong hurriedly trotted to the small tree on the left not far behind the tree to greet him, and at the same time briefly explained the specific situation of several people.

"Why does this sound so familiar", Ling Feng shook his head, unable to remember the reason for a while.

"Captain, do you know?" Shi Qing muttered quietly.

And the rest of the people were also nervously looking at Ling Feng, because now the power of life and death was completely in the hands of the acting city lord in Xi Changkong's mouth, if he was a little dissatisfied with us, it was very likely that blood would be splashed on the spot.

However, a few people are secretly prepared, and their bodies have more or less recovered some physical strength in the past two days. But now that he heard Ling Feng say that he heard the voice of someone who had come over, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, if it was really as he said, wouldn't it be better, so a few people were really looking forward to who it was!

"Oh? They're from the Imperial Sacrifice Academy? Then I'll have to meet a few people, you didn't do anything to them, did you! "The voice of the 'City Lord' came from everyone's ears again, and he himself appeared in front of everyone!

"You... Aren't you Zhang Xingcheng? When Ling Feng saw someone coming, he suddenly remembered something.

And Zhang Xingcheng, who was dressed in a leather suit, looked at the person who came, didn't react for a while, couldn't help frowning and recalled the appearance of the person in front of him, and made sure that there was no memory of this person in his mind, so he asked: "Do you know me?" Who are you? ”

"Do you remember back then, when you fled to the Empire, then came to our house, lived with me for two years, and then you said that you found your relatives and left, remember?" A different look appeared in Ling Feng's eyes, and the excitement was overflowing.

"You're... You are... Well, by the way, you're Big Brother Ling Feng, I remembered! Zhang Xingcheng stepped forward excitedly and took Ling Feng's hand.

"City Lord, danger, the identities of these people still need to be investigated, you must not get close to them", at this time Huzi said anxiously.

"Stand down, this is my savior, without him I don't know if I still live in the world! He is Ling Feng, the eldest son of the Ling clan of the Empire, and he is famous in the Empire, you don't know and don't blame you, why don't you step back quickly? Zhang Xingcheng couldn't help but say angrily.

Everyone reluctantly put down their spears, but Xi Changkong grinned at this time...

"Brother Ling Feng, how did you get here? Now that the entire empire is in chaos, if you don't pay attention to it, you will die without a place to bury, and this empire has to pass through layers of blockades to us, how can you get there? Zhang Xingcheng was puzzled.

"Hey, this is a long story, ten days ago we participated in the imperial sacrifice assessment, and after entering the abyss demon cave, we encountered a flood and were brought here, and only after coming out did we hear about the changes in the empire... Ay! Ling Feng sighed.

"Oh? Ten days ago, no wonder you didn't know anything, hey, I'll tell you the truth, now the empire has existed in name only, and the major forces are fighting their own battles. If my old father were to go one day, I would be thinking how many more days I would live, hey! Zhang Xingcheng's haggard face was full of sighs.

"Hey, by the way, I don't know why you left in a hurry? I remember that your name was Zhang Jiancheng, why did they call you Zhang Xingcheng, the city lord? Ling Feng said curiously.

"Hey, come, let's all come and sit under the tree, the sun will definitely shed a layer of skin on this hot day, and there is a long sky, you let them continue to patrol! Scouting around here is not to be taken lightly! Zhang Xingcheng greeted, there is no domineering official frame of those in power!

"Got it, Huzi, Xiao Hei, leave three people behind, and you will lead people to the left and right directions to reconnoitre", and when he said this, he also moved behind the city lord, and it seemed that he still didn't fully trust a few people!

At this time, the city lord also motioned for a few people to sit down by the shade of the tree, and continued: "Actually, it was the guards who put me in front of your house that year, because I was chased and killed by the rebels at that time, and when I pried open the door of your house, I led the enemy away alone, and I also entered your house as a refugee. Soon after, my father quelled the civil strife and sent for me to be taken back! At that time, his old man's physical condition had deteriorated since the beginning of this year, so he ordered me to act as the city lord! ”

"That's good, you're now the lord of a city!" The mountains are invincible and applaud.

"Alas, what's the matter, there was a team stationed in the empire in the past, so naturally everything was safe. But since the internal strife in the empire, the team that was originally used to suppress the forces of all parties has withdrawn from Shanlu City, and now several big families in the city will rebel one day, and the forces outside the city have long coveted Shanlu City for a long time, and it has really reached the point of internal and external troubles, and now I often wake up from sleeping"! Zhang Xingcheng continued.

"And what are you going to do now?" Ling Feng asked.

"Heh, what else can I do, if I really can't do it, I can only hand over the power, as long as the people of Shanlu City are not affected by the war, I am also willing!"

"That's what's wrong with you, what do you mean to hand it over, you person, things haven't developed to that extent, besides, the empire will always think of a solution. What you should do now is to repair the wall of the arrow tower, train your troops, and defend against the incoming enemy! Tianxiong said.

And Gao Shan Invincible also followed up and analyzed: "He is right, do you think that if you give up power, others will be good to the people?" Dream, do you think everyone is as high as you, now many people in power regard the common people as mustard, for the sake of power, they do everything, if you really give up like this, then it will not necessarily be a good thing to bring to Shanlu City, sometimes you should cut the mess quickly, but you can't be out of proportion due to civil strife at this time, otherwise you will face a catastrophe, at that time, it is not as simple as a small fight, many times the siegers take the most efficient way to slaughter the city! You'll have to think about it, don't fight among yourself the day the enemy breaks through the city! ”

"Hey, what can I do!" Zhang Xingcheng still shook his head.

"Brother Zhang, listen to what you mean, now that the empire has been divided into several major forces, I don't think we can go back to the imperial capital. Now that our studies at the Sacrificial Academy are over for you, if you can trust me and wait, we can stay and help you, although it won't help much, but fortunately, it's better than nothing, and we can always help you something! Gao Zhen said loudly.

"Really?" Zhang Xingcheng City Lord said excitedly. "We are people who escaped death, it would be great if we could have a place to stay, if we weren't lucky enough to come to the vicinity of Shanlu City, I'm afraid that if we go on like this, we will all fall, and I know who you are, if it can really help you, then it would be the best, I don't know what you think?" Ling Feng asked.

Several people stared at City Lord Zhang with some apprehension, because Ling Feng's meaning was already very straightforward, can you let us stay..."

That's naturally the best, this kind of thing that can't be sought, Brother Ling Feng, thank you so much! Hearing Ling Feng say this, he said excitedly.

"I wonder what everyone's opinion is? If you really want to go back, I think with your current ability, as long as you cultivate for some time, it shouldn't be a problem to go back! Ling Feng said to the six brothers who were in the same boat through thick and thin.

"Captain, I'm naturally with you, but don't forget that I'm your follower!" Shi Qing was the first to say.

"This is also an experience, why hesitate, I agree!" Tianxiong said.

"I would too," the two women replied at the same time.

"It's the right time to show my abilities, I'm sure I'm going to have to stay!" Gao Shan Invincible flexed his lumpy muscles and said confidently.

And Gao Zhen, whose ability is relatively uniform, also said at this time: "Gao Shan, I won't lose to you!" ”

Seeing that everyone affirmed their statements, he turned back to City Lord Zhang and said, "We should change our words and call you the City Lord, we will naturally do our best, and when the crisis of the empire is resolved, we will leave on our own!" ”

Zhang Xingcheng waved his hand and said with a rare smile: "It's just a title, why bother, since all the brothers agree, then go to the city with me, take the trail, and don't let the eyes of those factions see it, this will be bad!" ”

"By the way, City Lord Zhang, since there are so many factions that threaten your position, why doesn't your father clear these obstacles for you?" Tianxiong wondered.

"It's hard to put it into words, these are not as simple as you think, the first and second largest tribes in Shanlu City are the Diba and Kiru tribes, these two people were the first and second generals under his father, and now his father is critically ill, both of them advocate the city lord election system, which means that the father was elected by one of the two of them to become the new city lord. But I was strongly opposed by my father, and I was put under pressure to take office, but the leaders of the two ministries became more and more impatient, and I was worried that if my father left, Shanlu City...", Zhang Xingcheng is most anxious about this problem now.

"Lord of the city, Lord of the city, it's not good, it's not good, it's not good, the old city lord... Look at the city lord...", at this time one fell three times and cried again.

Zhang Xingcheng was shocked, as if he had understood something, and hurriedly helped the fallen guard, shaking, and his face was blood-red, and he trembled: "Tell me quickly, what happened?" ”

And the guard gasped and trembled, "Look at the city lord has... It's gone! ”

"What...... What the? Zhang Xingcheng was in a hurry, and a mouthful of blood gushed out in an instant, and his whole body fell back in a flash.

Xi Changkong hurriedly held on, worried: "City Lord! ”

And the crowd immediately greeted them! After a while, Zhang Xingcheng slowly opened his eyes and said weakly: "Quick, help me back!" ”

Then, with the support of everyone, they slowly walked towards Shanlu City...
