Chapter 48: Change (6)

Jingcheng Bai family, Xucheng Ke family, Yangcheng Liu family, Yongcheng Du family, Yancheng Lin family, Liangcheng Yang family, Yucheng Lou family, Qingcheng Quan family, Jicheng pillow family, the chairman of the executive council of the nine cities in the world, what do the nine big families have in common?

The common denominator is that these surnames are all next to the wooden character and all have a "wood" character. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yang Yan was very shocked, he was a member of the Yang family, and his surname was used since he was born, Bai Lang suddenly asked about the common denominator, indicating that this was not a coincidence,

He turned his head and saw that his father Yang Huai'an was also shocked, and Qi Feng and Zhou Ding on the side also looked at Yang Huai'an with wide eyes, and their surprised expressions were difficult to hide.

"The ancestor of the Bai family is surnamed Mu, an apprentice in an umbrella shop in Jingcheng, the family became an orphan after the death of a disease, the owner of the umbrella shop surnamed Bai had no children under his knees, so he adopted the ancestor as an adopted son, after the death of the owner, the ancestor took over the umbrella shop, and operated it with heart, the business became bigger and bigger, and more and more, and gradually became the richest man in Jingcheng, and was elected as the chairman of the Executive Council at the age of fifty-seven. Bai Lang rode on a horse and told the proud family history of the Bai family.

Yang Huai'an, Qi Feng, Yang Yan and Zhou Ding listened quietly.

"A hundred years ago, Jingcheng was overcrowded and the crime rate was high, and the chairman of the Executive Council at that time, the head of the Bai family, had to make a decision." When Bai Lang said this, he looked up again at the four people on the city wall, and his eyes shone with brilliance: "The head of the family is named Bai Xi, and after thinking hard all night, he decided on a plan for the next hundred years. ”

"A hundred years ago...... Yang Huai'an exhaled a thick white breath and said: "The plan is to divide people to build a city, and then take it back after a hundred years?" ”

"Clever." Bai Lang smiled slightly and said: "It's not difficult to come up with this plan, naturally it doesn't take a night, the difficulty is how to arrange it, how to ensure that it can be taken over smoothly after a hundred years." ”

"The Ke family, the Liu family, the Du family, the Lin family, the Yang family, the Lou family, the Quan family and the pillow family were all members of the Bai family a hundred years ago?" Qi Feng's brows were already tightly furrowed.

Bai Lang nodded and said: "If you just can't live in it, you can directly expand the city, there is no need to venture to build a city from afar, it is these eight families who are responsible for leading the city building team - we call it Mubian Bajie, when Bajie left Jingcheng, he took a lot of manpower, material resources, and methods of building the city, after the city is built, use the assets brought to open various business facilities, such as candle factories, urban transportation systems, etc., it is naturally not a problem to serve as the chairman of the executive council, and pass on this plan from generation to generation, after a hundred years, When the city has reached a bottleneck and stabilized, the Bai family will use the signal of 'trying to dominate the world' as a signal to spread this signal throughout the nine cities, and the descendants of these eight families will return to Jingcheng to discuss the handover method of the city. ”

Yang Huai'an, Qi Feng, Yang Yan and Zhou Ding glanced at each other, Yu Shan had already guessed that the Bai family had started to arrange it very early, but he didn't expect that they had been arranging it for a hundred years, this hundred-year plan itself was not very clever, the difficulty was the method and courage of implementation, a plan that spanned a hundred years, how many people dared to do this? Without the terrible financial resources and absolute dominance over Jingcheng, the Bai family would not be able to do this.

Bai Lang continued: "A hundred years is longer than a person's life, there are too many variables, some people may have a backlash, some people may forget the original agreement for various reasons, and some people may not be good at business, resulting in the loss of the position of chairman of the executive council, so in addition to the eight heroes next to the wood, the Bai family also sent a lot of people to assist from the side, some on the surface, some secretly, from the members of the council to the ordinary citizens, the same is to pass on their tasks from generation to generation, if the descendants of the eight heroes have no dissent, they will assist from the side, ensure that these eight families can always control the Executive Council; If you have a different heart, you will work together to eradicate it and replace it with someone you can trust as the president. ”

Yang Yan looked at Yang Huai'an again, he had never heard of this matter, and judging from Yang Huai'an's expression, he didn't know about it.

"The head of the Yang family once died of illness, and this agreement was probably broken at that time, and the Yang family's property was almost swallowed." Yang Huai'an frowned and asked Bai Lang: "At that time, I got the help of many people to survive, I'm afraid it was those 'helpers' who did it, it is impossible for the helpers not to know about this matter, why...... Still want to help the Yang family? ”

"I said, only the descendants of the eight heroes who have different hearts will be eradicated, and the city is built, even if the descendants of the eight heroes forget the agreement, as long as they don't have different hearts, it will be fine, and the stability in the city is very important, the president of the council changes, and the president's family is broken, which is not conducive to the development of the city." Bai Lang replied slowly.

"The descendants of those who assisted...... Probably all over the city. Zhou Ding said with a frown.

Bai Lang smiled: "The identity of the helpers is confidential, they don't know each other, and they have the role of mutual supervision, and it is impossible for the descendants of the Eight Masters to unite all the helpers, and the helpers do not dare to betray, which is very beneficial to the city to take over." ”

"What about the Wolf Guard? Why doesn't the vice president let your people serve as the president? Qi Feng asked curiously, the vice president of the council is elected by civilians, including Jingcheng, which is also the case, so there is no way to control it.

"What we want to take over is the city, not the ruins, the safety of the city is the most important, the leader of the city guard must be a capable and trusted person, otherwise the guard will rot from the root, and it will not be able to hold it for a hundred years, of course, after taking over, we will naturally make new arrangements, and there will be some small changes in the administrative system of the city, but it will not hurt the muscles and bones, and you have also seen the ......" Bai Lang glanced back at the big insect in front of the dense forest, and said: "We are here, and we can also make the defense of the city easier." ”

After saying this, he looked satisfied, lowered his head slightly, and erected the collar of his military uniform.

The scene became very quiet, Yang Huai'an, Qi Feng, Yang Yan and Zhou Ding looked down at Bai Lang, no one spoke, their minds were chaotic, Yu Shan's guess was touched a little, it was really just a little bit, which made the facts more impactful, and there was still a certain difference between what I didn't expect and what I didn't expect.

From this point of view, the Lin family in Yancheng is the one who has not forgotten the agreement, probably after receiving the signal of the Bai family's "trying to dominate the world", he immediately went to Jingcheng, Lin Jin should not have been sent by the Bai family to inspect the situation, but after the situation was clear, he was sent to attract attention, and the descendants of the "helper" must have been contacted, just waiting for today, waiting for this moment.

After a long while, Yang Huai'an said in a deep voice: "Jingcheng...... How are you going to take over? ”

…………

…………

There was a loud bang, Chen Zhen waved his arm and hit the secret door of the dark room under the stairs, the secret door was wooden, although it was thick and tough, his arm was as hard as granite, and there was a lot of strength, but the secret door was not broken, only a large number of cracks appeared.

The strength of the arm has become smaller, smaller than when he hit the invisible man before, and there is nothing abnormal about the body, except that the strength of the left arm has become smaller, which is very difficult to detect, because when grasping something, the brain has to measure its own strength in addition to estimating the weight of the object, otherwise it will either use too much force or will not be able to pick it up.

But Chen Zhen's left hand strength is completely different from other parts of the body, if the strength of the left hand is used as the action standard, then his feet will be "weak" so that he can't even walk, and his right hand will be "weak" so that he can't even lift up, so he must usually use the normal strength of human beings as the action standard, and when using the left hand, add a force estimation process, which can be coordinated, and the increased force estimation process is control.

Therefore, when he is not using his left hand, Chen Zhen's brain treats his left arm as an ordinary arm, and only when he uses it can he notice the abnormality, compared to the previous moment when he knocked people away, the strength of his left arm has seriously decreased.

This must be the ghost of Bone Paradise and Tian Yi, but Chen Zhen also did it, he couldn't go out from the main entrance, he could only look for other exits, Tian Yi didn't go upstairs just now, and the place where she was hiding now should be an exit - it was impossible for her to trap herself in the library.

Judging from the sound, Tian Yi is not hiding behind the bookshelf, the only place that can hide is in the small compartment under the stairs, under normal circumstances, it should be the tool room where cleaning tools are placed, but after touching around, he couldn't find the door, which is a little strange, Chen Zhen didn't find the secret door, but decided to knock on it first.

The sound of tapping indicated that there was space inside, and Chen Zhen added a few more punches, punched a hole in the secret door, took out the light stone and held it in his right hand, widened the hole, and drilled in.

The space in the chamber was small, there was no one, and the light stone had already lit up, illuminating the vertical tunnel leading to the bottom, and also shining on the black wax droplets that had solidified on the ground.

The lid of the tunnel had been opened, and Chen Zhen guessed that the strength of his left hand had become smaller, perhaps caused by the black candle, and he didn't have time to delve into it, so he came to the top of the tunnel and looked down.

The vertical tunnel is square, the length and width are only about half a meter, there is a ladder on one side, it is very deep, the light can only shine into more than ten meters, and then there is darkness, he thought about it, broke off a few large wooden planks from the broken secret door, smashed into the tunnel, and then jumped into it himself.

The heavy wooden plank hit the wall of the tunnel all the way, crackling, Chen Zhen held the light stone, looked at the foot, grabbed the ladder with his left hand every time he fell a distance, and then let go and continued to fall, after repeating it a few times, Tian Yi's scream sounded below, and it seemed that he had been hit by the plank.

Immediately after, an arrow was fired.
