Hearing the hostility and anger in Claude's words, Chen Xiansong looked at the other party with some puzzlement, not understanding what he meant by this. Seeing this situation on the side, Balf knew that his master had made another mistake and was not too concerned about anything, so he hurriedly threw down the shovel, ran to Chen Xiansong's ear, and told him the general thing.

When he heard that those people had come to assassinate him, the result was indeed as Claude said, and many people were indirectly killed.

Chen Xiansong felt very guilty in his heart, he quietly looked at the corpse in the distance for a while, and then asked softly: "Balf, I heard that the association will give a pension to those who died in battle and those who were seriously injured, let's add another one, I remember that we still have a sum of money left in the association, take it out, and distribute it three times the amount of the association." This is my identification, please go to Qingxi City to finish this matter and come back. ”

Balgh held Chen Xiansong's Soul Ponderor Crest and said cautiously, "Triple the amount, isn't it too much?" ”

"Go ahead." Chen Xiansong said softly.

Seeing that Chen Xiansong had made up his mind, Balf didn't say anything more, and directly took two or three people on the horse and rushed to Qingxi City.

The strength of the guards around them was very good, so their ears were quite good, and after they heard Chen Xiansong's words, they felt a little more grateful in their hearts. Although the association's pension is expensive, it can only solve a temporary emergency, but with three times the additional amount of Chen Xiansong, it adds up to a total of four times the pension, which is not a small amount.

In this way, the deceased family can get about fifty gold coins, and the seriously injured can also get about twenty. These two sums of money, as a guard, do not eat or drink every month, the former costs about five years, and the latter also takes two years. Even if there is no pillar in the family, with this small amount of money, ordinary people can save some frugality, and then go out to do some small business, and the people who can count the family can eat, drink and wear for decades.

In these dark times, not many people were afraid of death, they were afraid that if they died, their families would suffer.

It's just that some people are not satisfied with such after-the-fact pacification measures, and Claude said slowly: "Your Excellency, do you think that everyone is dead, what is the use of sending some more money?" Can they buy their lives back? I hope you can do it more sincerely! ”

Claude's words did not arouse any sympathy from others, in this dark age, the status of nobility was high. Chen Xiansong's behavior is actually very close to the people and very kind, if it is replaced by other nobles who have no conscience, maybe even the pension will be deducted with an excuse.

Chen Xiansong looked back at Claude: "Please tell me, what should I do?" ”

Chen Xiansong asked sincerely, after all, it was the first time he had encountered this kind of thing, and he felt that he might not be very thoughtful in dealing with it. It's just that when he asked, his tone was too low, or maybe Claude had a deep prejudice against Chen Xiansong, and when the other party heard this, he thought he was sarcastic.

"That's something you should think about, I'm just suggesting." Claude threw down the sentence dryly, and returned to his carriage. Now that there was only one guard left with him, he looked at the emptiness around the carriage, and then thought about the hugging of him as he set off, and he hammered the carriage with his fist.

The conversation between the two was heard clearly by many people. Some people hope that Chen Xiansong can give out more gold coins, who doesn't like money, but some people are worried that what if Claude said something annoyed Chen Xiansong, not only did he not add money, but also took back three times the gold coins! After all, in this era, the aristocracy has the right to kill and kill the commoners, which has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The guards communicate in private, with their own eyes and body secrets, and in the end, the rational faction prevails, and the pension of three times is already very good, if people are too greedy, they tend to think too much and stop providing mold, especially in the aristocracy, Garfield's vicious mouth, which is even more dangerous.

Udir naturally also saw the situation of the two of them, he was naturally inclined to his students, but Claude was a disciple of his old friend, and he was not easy to persuade. He was very much in favor of Chen Xiansong's move to triple the pension, and even felt that he was a kind-hearted student and a good boy.

No one wants their relatives and friends to be heartless people, if he can be good to outsiders, he will be better for his own people. Any normal person would think of this, and no one is stupid. ,

After listening to Claude's words, Chen Xiansong thought for a while, but did not come to a conclusion, so he went to Udier to find the answer.

Hearing Chen Xiansong's slightly distressed question, Claude became more and more sure that this is a child who has been isolated from the world since he was a child and has been raised by educational methods. Sometimes he was ignorant of common sense, but in terms of knowledge, he was superior to almost everyone Udir had ever met, or even to the president Artemis.

"Child, the problem you are struggling with is not really there." Udir pointed to the guards next to him: "Yu Qing, they are a member of the association, and it is their duty to work for the association and fight for their lives; Yu Li, you are a soul thinker, a soul thinker, and a soul thinker, and it is the responsibility of all mercenaries, even civilians. You may think I'm arrogant when you say that, but the knowledge that has now appeared in this world is partly due to the Sun Temple, and partly due to the contemplation of our souls. ”

"The whole human race is like a huge flock of sheep, and our association and the temple of the sun are the first sheep in it, responsible for leading the lambs to the beautiful grassland of abundance and fertile. Along the way, we will encounter fierce animals such as lone wolves and Garfield, and they, at the expense of themselves, will satisfy the appetite of the beast with their flesh and blood, and protect us to ensure that the whole flock can walk on the right path. This is their fate. ”

Chen Xiansong has always felt that Udir is very kind, but when he heard these words, he finally realized that Udir had an indifference that saw through the in the world.

Similar theories exist in the 22nd century, and Chen Xiansong has also seen them, for example, there are similar questions: a great scientist who can promote human progress is in danger, and in order to save him, he may sacrifice a hundred civilians, and vice versa. The question is very cliché, if you were an important member of the Consortium government, would you save the people on that side, the big scientists, or a hundred people.

This question was raised in the twentieth century, but the content and characters were slightly different, and it took more than 200 years to be characterized as a false proposition, because in that case, what to do is actually right and wrong at the same time, which is a contradictory question. In the twenty-second century, philosophers divided them into intellectuals and sensual schools, claiming that either choice was the right one, and that no one should feel guilty or upset about their choice.

According to this theory, Udil should be a member of the intellectuals, while Chen Xiansong is inclined to be emotional.

It is easy for a rational person to understand a thing, but for an emotional person, it is much more difficult. Although listening to Udier's persuasion, Chen Xiansong's guilty mood improved slightly, but he still had a pimple in his heart, which he couldn't get rid of.

After all, I killed them. This kind of psychology more or less exists in Chen Xiansong's mind.

After about three hours, the convoy from Qingxi City finally arrived. Surprisingly, Suo Xi, the head of the Qingxi City Association, was also in the crowd. He first learned about the situation with Udil, and then ran to visit his disciple, and after seeing that he was safe and sound, his tense expression really relaxed.

Originally, Udir planned to spend the night here, but Sosi said: "No one knows if the group of people in Ludao is still nearby, you can escape the disaster, only a few guards died, it is already very fatal, in case the enemy attacks at night while you are sleeping, the situation is difficult to say." Old friend, you go back to Qingxi City with me first, stay for a few more days, suppress the shock, I will gather two hundred top mercenaries, and escort you all the way to the royal city at that time, I see who else dares to touch you again. ”

When he said this, there was a cold anger in Suoxi's eyes: "The one who dares to touch our soul ponders, the person behind the instigation, is it stupid to eat, even the Sun Temple and the Dragon Clan can't do things, they actually do it...... Hmph, what a fat guts! ”

Udir felt that the other party was also reasonable, safety first. He thought about it for a while, and then agreed.

The corpse collectors brought by Suoxi carried all the corpses of the guards to the cart, pushed them by hand, and slowly walked in the direction of Qingxi City. Chen Xiansong sat in the carriage, looking very lost, Bai Min watched from the side, worried and her little face wrinkled, she knew that for natural people, such emotions hurt the body, but she didn't know how to persuade her, her brain chip did not have such a knowledge reserve as psychological enlightenment. ,

Because it was an ordinary human-powered cart that transported the corpses, this time, they walked very slowly, and by the time they returned to Qingxi City, it was already the middle of the night. As for Claude, he let his only remaining subordinate hurry up early and take the lead.

There were many people standing outside the entrance of Qingxi City, dozens of torches held high.

In this battle, the death toll of the guards was fourteen, seven of whom were Claude's men, local mercenaries from Qingxi City. Their families received the news in the afternoon and waited here early.

The two parties came into contact, and the family members of Qingxi City rushed into the ranks, and it didn't take long for the cries of grief to sound.

Chen Xiansong sat in the carriage, and his mood had been relieved a lot, but when he heard these cries, the whole person suddenly became more depressed. Seeing this, Alex, who was driving the car, increased the force of his horsewhip and wanted to enter the city as quickly as possible, so that he could leave this place that made people feel uneasy.

Claude, who had returned early, stood on the city wall, looking down at the convoy below, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Just as Alex was about to enter the city in his carriage, two women suddenly rushed out of the side and rushed to the horses.

Alex was so frightened that he pulled the reins so hard that the carriage almost crashed into the two men.

And the two women rolled on the spot, crying, "You demon-cursed plague god...... If it weren't for you, my husband Jack wouldn't be dead...... I don't want to live anymore, so you can trample me to death...... I don't want to live anymore. (To be continued)
