"That ancient book is an ancient book that I read in my hometown, not something from this world, after all, when I came, I didn't bring anything, so ......" After an apologetic smile, Wang Xu comforted Zhana and said: "However, I have memorized the content of that ancient book, and I will write the content of the book for you ......."

"Good ......" After listening to Wang Xu's previous sentence, Zana, who felt very disappointed, was immediately relieved after hearing Wang Xu's last sentence, and at the same time, she was also moved by Wang Xu's meticulousness and thoughtfulness, and rarely smiled sweetly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Just as Wang Xu was about to continue his topic, a long horn sound of "woo ......" came from a distance, Wang Xu turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from, and saw that the 1,000 mermaid army escorting the captive army suddenly raised countless banners embroidered with their royal symbols.

The position of the mermaid escort brigade raising the flag and playing music was about 500 meters away from the city gate, and when they raised the flag and played the music, their progress stopped, obviously, they planned to carry out the prisoner exchange ceremony there.

Wang Xu was very aware of the mermaid escort team's intention to stop there and not enter the city, they must be thinking: entering the city, in front of millions of wood elves, using tens of thousands of captives to exchange for a person, it is too face-hurting, rather than being embarrassed after entering the city, it is better to get everything done outside the city, and then leave, in this way, at least you can save some face, not to ......

Just when Wang Xu was thinking about whether to ask the mermaid clan to escort the team into the city, a group of three or five Praetorian Guard cavalry teams quickly rushed out of the city gate and rushed towards the mermaid team.

When the team of people and horses sent by the elf king came into contact with the escort team of the mermaid clan, the escort team of the mermaid clan immediately appeared in a riot, and the sound of quarrels quickly drifted to the ears of Wang Xu and others on the city wall with the breeze.

Although the distance was still relatively far, Wang Xu couldn't hear what they were arguing about, but from their body language, Wang Xu could see that the order of the elven king carried out by that team of people must be to ask the mermaid escort team to enter the city to exchange prisoners.

"Don't you care about it, it's all noisy...... "Worried that something might happen, Miao turned his head and asked Wang Xu.

"I'm hesitating to take care of this matter...... Wang Xu, whose expression was slightly entangled, replied in a low voice while thinking about it: "Actually, the question I'm really entangled with is whether to accept the mermaid's intention and exchange prisoners outside the city, or let those people enter the city to exchange prisoners according to the intention of the elf king......"

"Judging by the attitude of those mermaid spearmen at this time, it is estimated that it is impossible to enter the city, if they are strong, I am afraid that they will hurt the captives......" Miao said what she was most worried about.

Among the people on the city wall, at this moment, that is, Miao's mood was the most worried, and she was even worried to the point of restlessness, after all, eighty or ninety percent of the captives were from the Naga Sea Clan, in case the group of mermaid spearmen were anxious and began to kill the captives, the unlucky ones were also from the Naga Sea Clan.

Just when Wang Xu was about to go over to take a look and stabilize the situation first, he listened to the sound of horses' hooves of "da, da, da......", and saw that another team of Praetorian Guard cavalry rushed out from the city gate, this team of cavalry was not the three or five people just now, from the smoke they brought up, Wang Xu roughly judged that they also had at least five or six thousand people.

Seeing this, the cavalry rushed to the merfolk escort team, and immediately, they surrounded the 1,000 spearmen of the mermaid clan.

Obviously, the five or six thousand Praetorian Guards were also sent by the Elf King, and Wang Xu guessed that the Elf King must have noticed that the first force he sent out failed to negotiate, so he directly used it.

"It's okay now, the mermaid spearmen are all surrounded, even if they want to make trouble, they can't make trouble......" Looking at the mermaid spearmen who were being confiscated in the distance, Wang Xu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Is this good," Zhana, who was standing on the right side of Wang Xu, looked at the "incident" in the distance, and analyzed in a low voice: "It was originally a peaceful and free prisoner exchange ceremony, but now, it has become a forced prisoner exchange, and the elf king has offended the mermaid clan so much, so he is not afraid of their revenge!"

"No way, let alone the Elf King, it's me, and I'm also hesitating whether to let the Fish Clan enter the city to exchange prisoners, after all, if they let them enter the city and exchange prisoners with us, there are too many benefits, not only can it immediately boost the morale of the people in the city, but it can also stimulate the spies of other forces in the Dark Mountains operating in the city, and by the way, impact the morale of those spies' forces, so that they don't dare to act rashly against Hill City......" Wang Xu said faintly that he did not prevent this from happening.

"However, there are many disadvantages of doing this......" After listening to Wang Xu's analysis, Zhana first shook her head gently, and then objected: "Doing this, first of all, it will destroy the integrity of the elf race, and only increase the vigilance of other races who want to get close to the elf race; ”

"I know all this......" After listening to Zana's analysis, Wang Xu sighed slightly, and said in a low voice: "It's because the advantages and disadvantages of doing this thing are great, so I can't make up my mind, but now, someone has already made up my mind for me, since the elf king has done everything to the end, and this is the case, then there is no way, so I can only let them enter the city to exchange prisoners......"

"How to solve the revenge of the mermaid clan?" Nilou, who was standing on the other side of Wang Xu, looked back at Wang Xu and asked in a crisp voice.

"Hmm...... After a while, I went to talk to the group of people of the mermaid clan, and I tried my best to put the responsibility for this matter on the elf king and himself, so that they could hate the elf king instead of our elf clan, and the best result I could do was that the mermaid clan only hated the elf king, and only took revenge on the elf king alone, and did not involve anything else, in this case, this matter would not have a big impact on our elf clan!" Although I don't want to wipe my ass for the elf king, this is a matter related to the future fate of the elf race, and Wang Xu has to do it.

However, Wang Xu also decided that since this matter was done by the Elf King, all the costs would be borne by the Elf King himself, and if he was slaughtered by the Mermaid Clan, it would be just right for Downs Wharton to ascend the throne in advance......

"Wow, wow, wow......" Just as Wang Xu was thinking about how to negotiate with the mermaid clan for a while, there were suddenly cheers in the city......
