Chapter 1086: Unexpected
"I won't do this! Although I, Pan Wei, am stupid, I can still tell who is the good guy and who is the bad guy! Lu Gongzi, I respect you for helping us break the siege of the four cities last time, and you are our benefactor, and what you just said I will treat you as if you were joking with Pan. You want me to kill Sicheng's own people, I'm sorry, I can't do it! Don't say that you suspect that Lao He will betray our Sicheng, even Lao Meng, I, Pan Wei, dare to pat my chest and guarantee that he won't, let alone Lao He, who is bent on developing Sicheng. Pan Wei said indignantly.
"So, is there a mistake in my letter?" Lu Yi looked playful.
"I don't care if your letter is wrong or not, in short, to provoke the feelings of the three of us, Pan will never allow it. Pan Wei's fiery temper came up, and his eyes widened.
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll give you another choice," Lu Yi continued his temptation, "I want you to die, and use your death to protect He Ziyan, Meng Yixiang and the rest of your three families, are you willing?"
Pan Wei was stunned, he didn't understand why Lu Yi said this, but he was angry, and he didn't think about anything deeper at all, so he immediately patted his chest and said proudly: "How can I, Pan Wei, be the one who is greedy for life and afraid of death, as long as I can protect the safety of my family and friends, what does it matter if I die?!"
"Have you really thought about it?" Lu Yi asked.
"Hmph! I didn't expect Lu Gongzi to be such a person! Pan has nothing to say!" Pan Wei tilted his face and stopped looking at Lu Yi.
"Good! good! good!" Lu Yi said three good words in a row and laughed.
Now, Pan Wei couldn't understand it even more.
"It's okay, you go back, I want you to keep it a secret from our conversation today. Lu Yi smiled and waved at Pan Wei and motioned for him to leave.
Pan Wei was confused by Lu Yi, and Lu Yi didn't explain anything to him, he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally stomped his feet and left the room.
After Pan Wei left, Lu Yi found Meng Yixiang, dealing with smart people is Lu Yi's favorite thing, and the conversation with Meng Yixiang is not like Pan Wei, Lu Yi went straight to the point, saying that he wanted to cultivate a group of henchmen, and he was more interested in He Mengpan and the three of them, and felt that the three of them valued love and righteousness, not the kind of traitorous villain, and asked him if he had any ideas. Meng Yixiang listened to Lu Yi's words and thought for a while, and then asked Lu Yi a few questions, such as what other conditions Lu Yi had attached, or what he needed the three of them to do to show his loyalty, and so on. Lu Yi replied that he didn't need to do anything, just swore an oath never to betray. Meng Yixiang was very straightforward, even though he made an oath, and then asked Lu Yi if he had mentioned this matter to He Ziyan and Pan Wei, Lu Yi told Meng Yixiang that he had not really sought the opinions of the other two, but he had tested Pan Wei. and informed Meng Yixiang of Pan Wei's performance, Meng Yixiang also laughed when he heard it, he told Lu Yi that Pan Wei is such a person, straight to the point, but he has no bad intentions. Lu Yi asked Meng Yixiang to knock on Pan Wei again, to test whether Pan Wei's mouth was tight, whether he would leak the content of his conversation with Lu Yi, and if Pan Wei's mouth was tight enough, let Meng Yixiang take Pan Wei to see Lu Yi.
Meng Yixiang took the order and left, and after about half an hour, he really led Pan Wei back. This time, Lu Yi openly and honestly talked to Pan Wei about the fact that he wanted to absorb him as a confidant, and told Pan Wei that everything before was just a temptation for him, Pan Wei muttered in a low voice to express his dissatisfaction with Lu Yi's temptation, and then accepted Lu Yi's solicitation with a twist, so far, except for He Ziyan, the person who should not have a problem, the four cities have all been handled by Lu Yi, Lu Yi arranged for Meng Pan and the two to go back to pack up and prepare the clansmen, and they will start in the near future, completely leave the four cities and go elsewhere, but they don't want the two to ask Lu Yi in unison, don't you wait for He Ziyan to come backIt can be seen that the friendship between the three is deep. Lu Yi told the two that they didn't have to worry about He Ziyan, he would arrange it, and the two left with peace of mind.
Soon, the five-day period arrived, and when Zhong Lu Guan Shi Qi and other four monks came to Tungsten City, they found that none of the people in the four cities were gone, only Lu Yi and the two strangers he saw last time were still there, although they were suspicious, but everyone was old, and no one was interested in asking. Lu Yi set up a good banquet at the city lord's mansion in tungsten city, and after letting the two parties sit at the table, he announced that today's banquet is to let both sides release their previous suspicions, since you have all chosen to give Lu a face, then you will definitely cooperate with Lu in the future, and everyone may be a family in the future, so if you have any grievances before, drink this wine, and write it off from now on, if anyone feels that it is difficult to calm the hatred in his heart, he can leave the table now, Lu Yi will never pursue it, let alone be the villain who settles accounts after the autumn.
It can be seen that Zhong Luqiao was still a little reluctant or worried about Lu Yi in his heart, his eyes flickered, and he swept around on the faces of Lu Yi and the others for a long time, and his mouth opened and he still didn't say anything after all. However, Guan Shiqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, obviously after Zhong Luqi exposed his mind in front of everyone that day, his heart was somewhat lacking in confidence, but he didn't want to give up the plan to hug Lu Yi's big tree, so he came cheekily today, and even he made the worst plans and preparations.
No one objected, the banquet started smoothly, Lu Yi toasted three glasses of wine in a row, expressing his gratitude to several families, thanking them for trusting him and being willing to be in the same boat with him. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, after some polite words, Lu Yi finally began to cut to the chase, first of all, he asked about the origin of the Huang family.
The mid-ninth order monk of the Huang family got up, first saluted Lu Yi in return, and then began to introduce himself, "Contemptible Huang Qihu is a demon cultivator from the Northern Regions in the early years, because of the problem of the exercises he has cultivated, he has been living in seclusion for many years, and he has led his clan to concentrate on cultivation in an inconspicuous place under the jurisdiction of Brother Guan. Brother Guan and I have known each other since the early days of soul building, and we have been with each other for more than 3,000 years, and we have cooperated several times, and we have both had the experience of saving each other's lives, which can be described as friends of life and death. Because I don't like to appear in front of people, so Brother Guan has always taken great care of Huang, and he has come forward for me for anything, because not many people have known about the existence of our Huang family for many years, if it weren't for the fact that this time with the two brothers of Zhongluo was really a little troublesome, Brother Guan would not have asked me for help. Huang originally liked to meditate, but listening to Brother Guan's repeated admiration for Lu Gongzi, saying that Lu Gongzi was a peerless genius that was rare to see in 10,000 years, Huang was also a little moved, and wanted to see what kind of character Lu Gongzi was, so this time Huang took the liberty to come with Brother Guan. ”
After listening to Huang Qihu's introduction, although I don't know how much true and false ingredients are in it, at least some useful information is in hand, such a person is a demon cultivator, which also makes Lu Yi secretly pay attention to it, he is still a little wary of demon cultivation. After a few more greetings, Lu Yi talked about the next topic: he planned to take the three families of the four cities to leave here, and handed over this place to two of the four families of Zhongluo Guan Huang to operate, and the two who stayed not only took over the four cities, but also took over the territory of the other two, and the other two followed Lu Yi to leave and Lu Yi to start a new business, Lu Yi asked the four families to discuss by themselves, who left and who stayed.
Surprisingly, the four families all agreed on this matter and expressed their willingness to stay, and the reason was very similar, that is, they had been in this place for a long time, and they were very familiar with the situation in this area and very affectionate, so they were reluctant to give up. When Lu Yi discussed with the fat man at that time, he thought that since the housekeeper and the mysterious Huang family might have a plan, they would inevitably choose to follow him away, and when the time came, Lu Yi could find an opportunity to let the two families be cannon fodder, so as to test whether they really followed him. But in this way, Lu Yi's plan may be frustrated, his words are released, and he can't forcibly assign who to leave and who to stay, so he can only put the topic aside for the time being and leave it for the four families to discuss privately.
At the end of the banquet, the four families returned to their original positions, and Tungsten City ushered in a short period of peace. Lu Yi continued to discuss the future development with the fat man, but Bai Chunze was not interested in these, so he went out for a walk by himself. Time passed like this, another seven days passed, on this day Lu Yi was discussing with the fat man how to deal with the matter of the Guan and Huang families, a messenger flew from outside, stopped in front of Lu Yi, Lu Yi grabbed the messenger and pasted it on his forehead to read the information inside, and immediately frowned.
This is a distress message from the Hongning Empire, and the one who sent the summons was Uncle Bustard, the head of the four brothers who Lu Yi had helped. It turned out that the Hongning Empire was finally remembered by others, a newly rising force launched an invasion of the Hongning Empire, although Xu Rongning raised the banner of Lu Yi, but the other party did not believe it at all, as a last resort, Xu Yinning invited several people to help fight the enemy, but the other party had two mid-stage monks in the middle of the spirit building, far from what a few of them could contend with, Xu Rongning had no choice but to ask for help from Xialu Mountain, Xialu Mountain now also knows Lu Yi's identity, for Lu Yi's sake, and there are Lin Yue and other Lu Yi's people mediating from it, and the monk Tianquan in the middle of Xialu Mountain also personally went to the Hongning Empire to support, which can be regarded as recovering some disadvantages。 However, in a recent confrontation, the other party set a trap, plotted against the people of the Hongning Empire, and severely injured Xu Yining.
After receiving this news that it was not good news, Lu Yi also told the fat man about the content of the message, two people, you look at me and I look at you, and I can't help but be happy.
