Seeing that the villagers refused to leave, although I knew why they were, I had to pretend and say, "What are you doing here?

This......

Hearing my words, Rocca and Mario couldn't help but look at each other, and then ...... With an upright face, Roca took a few steps forward, bowed respectfully and said, "God...... Your Excellency, on behalf of all the villagers, I beg you to stay and save the lives of all the villagers of Phantom Stone Village, please ......"

What the!

Although everything was expected by me, I pretended to be surprised and jumped up from my chair, looked at Roca dumbfounded, and said, "Stay...... Do you mean, for the sake of your worthless rotten lives, you want my dignified gods to stay in this place where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't?

Listening to my words, Rocca's old face turned red, although this is very harsh, but he knows very well that this is absolutely the truth, in the entire Eastern Continent, similar to the Phantom Stone Village, there are only about 200 small village heads, I am afraid there must be millions, no one will stay here, even the young villagers of Phantom Stone Village, they all want to get out of Phantom Stone Village and go to the outside world to develop, not to mention such an unfathomable Li Yi?

However, although he knew that this was the case, Roca and all the villagers had to come and plead, the matter was already obvious, only the young man in front of him could save their lives, once he left, then the entire Phantom Stone Village would be completely destroyed, this is a clear thing!

Moreover, after Li Yi left just now, all the villagers, inspired by Li Yi's words, asked the next question for the two village chiefs - how to maintain the safety of Phantom Stone Village, if there is no security guarantee, no matter how much money you make, it is just to serve those thieves, not rich but stronger, once you are really rich, I am afraid that there will be more thieves in Phantom Stone Village, in this case, the so-called development strategy of the two village chiefs is just a joke.

Faced with the questions raised by all the villagers, the two village chief candidates, namely Rocca and Mario, all kept their mouths shut, this is an unsolvable problem, if there is a way to solve it, the old village chief has already solved it, do you still need to wait until now?

Everyone has also considered that the mercenary group came to station, but ...... If you want to prevent thieves like ants, I'm afraid you have to hire at least a medium-sized mercenary group with more than 100 members, and the population of the entire Phantom Stone Village is only four or five hundred, so you can't afford to hire any mercenary group at all!

Things have come to this point, and they have come to a dead end, but the way will eventually be figured out, and finally someone thought of Li Yi's move, as long as he is willing to stay, the strength of only one person can deter the thieves around him, so that the development strategy of the two village chiefs can be implemented, so ...... Under the leadership of the two candidates for village head, all the villagers came to Li Yi's door, and there was the scene just now.

Looking at Roca, whose old face had turned the color of pork liver, I couldn't help but sigh faintly, slowly sat back in the chair, and said calmly: "I know your difficulties, but ...... If I want to trap myself in this small mountain village for your sake, I really can't do it, so ...... Please don't embarrass me, everyone go, please forgive me for not being able to do anything about your affairs. ”

After speaking, I slowly closed my eyes, and I knew...... They won't back down, and their only choice is to leave me behind at all costs!

Thump...... Thump...... Thump......

Sure enough, in the midst of a dull sound, through my squinted eyes, I saw that all the villagers were kneeling under the leadership of the two candidates for village chief, kneeling on the ground with great reverence.

This time, Mario spoke: "Your Excellency, please accept the prayers of your most devout people, please protect your most pious people, we will be your most loyal people, and we will never betray!"

Slowly opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile, things, just to do this, if you want to take it, you must give it first, I want to be the head of the village, but I just want to organize everyone, choose someone else to be the head of the village, so that no one will suspect that I have this idea for a long time.

On the other hand, although I really want the throne of village chief, I ...... I just didn't speak, although I can be the village chief, but the effect is completely opposite to the current situation, under duress, although I can also be the village chief, but everyone will resist, will resist, so for my future construction and management, it is really too unfavorable.

Although I really wanted to be the village chief, I wanted them to come to me, and ...... Even if you ask me, I won't say yes in one go, and I always don't know how to cherish things that are too easy to get.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head and said disdainfully: "Do you really think that if you are unconditionally loyal to me, I will stay?

This......

In the face of my words, everyone was speechless, the fact is this, even if they are willing to do this, but there will definitely be no mercenary group willing to come here, there is no possibility, which mercenary group will be willing to come to this remote and poor mountain village to station? What is the future here?

Looking at the villagers who were silently kneeling on the ground, I sighed and said, "You should understand that I can become the master of any village or town as long as I want, and I will also receive their unconditional allegiance, but...... I'm never going to do that, you know, once you're tied here, then ...... My future is completely over! What hope is there in this remote and impoverished mountain village?"

There was silence at the scene, and in the face of my words, no one had any reason to talk about it, this was the truth, and how could they refute it? For a while, ...... The hearts of all the villagers sank, and the shadow of death slowly shrouded everyone's hearts.

Standing up slowly, I said in a deep voice: "Okay, everyone go back, although I sympathize with everyone's situation, but I still say the same thing, in this matter, please forgive me for not being able to do anything!"

Woo......

When the matter came to this point, everyone knew that their last hope had been shattered, and for a while, everyone on the scene cried bitterly, even Rocca couldn't help but look up to the sky angrily, his eyes had turned blood-red, he was angry about the upcoming tragedy, but he couldn't do anything!

Mario knelt there trembling all over, thinking that an hour ago, he still had a longing for the throne of the village chief, but now he finally knew that the throne of the village chief was simply not within his reach, and once he sat in that position, when those bands of thieves returned here, he would be the first to suffer!

Thinking of the scene where the old village chief was beheaded with a sword, thinking of the scene of blood spraying wildly, Mario's fear in his heart has almost reached the limit of his endurance, and in the face of death, who can not be calm?

Looking at the crying villagers, I couldn't help but smile coldly, turned around and went back to the back room, and then ...... It's time for Yoyo to come out, I have to establish her position in the village, no one can disrespect her, if I am the first glimpse of this village, then ...... Yoyo is definitely the one who has this glimmer of hope, and everyone must understand this!

Escape......

Seeing me come in, Yoyo greeted me gently, looked at me worriedly and said, "Only now, I finally understand what you mean to Phantom Stone Village, Yoyo beg, go and promise everyone, don't let them be sad!"
