Chapter 268: Haze
The city was built by the Shell Tribe, because the Shell Tribes are one of the few tribes in the alien race that are not hostile to the Terrans, therefore, as the Shell Tribe, the Shell City has attracted a large number of Terran merchants. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In this regard, the high-level leaders of the Bei Fierce clan showed considerable sincerity.
Not only has an area been opened up in the corner of Bei Fierce City, which is used to receive Terran merchants, but also gives full protection in terms of security.
In this way, it attracted a large number of Terran merchants.
Of course, due to the hostile environment between the two races, these merchants were not recognized within the human race. On the other hand, they only maintain an attitude of turning a blind eye.
But even so, it was a great blessing for those merchants who wandered between the two tribes.
It's a pity that this kind of good life came to an end after the Mingshi tragedy.
The Mingshi tragedy is the obscure name of the residents of Bei Murder City to the Bei Gu family who were tragically destroyed because of the Mingshi incident.
After the tragedy, some Bei Fierce people claimed to have seen suspicious Terrans around the Bei Gu family, and the conflict between Bei Gu and a Terran boy in Mingshi Ju was also revealed.
It is said that the matter of the treasure was told by the Terran boy.
This matter became the talk of the residents of the city after dinner, and soon reached the ears of the high-ranking people of the Bei Fierce Clan.
Soon, two orders came from the City Lord's Mansion.
The first order was to search the whole city for the Terran who had clashed with Beigu in Mingshiju on the day of the incident, and to reward 100 taels for any definite clues, and 10,000 taels for those who were arrested.
Along with this order, hundreds of portraits of Chen Yuan were plastered all over the city. In particular, the city gate is plastered with bulletin boards.
The second order is related to the Terran caravan, that is, all Terran caravans who want to enter the city must provide a "permission order" issued by the city lord's mansion Of course, there is no such thing as a permission order for the alien race, this is just for the Terran to understand......
Only caravans with permission orders will be protected by the laws of the Castle Lord's Palace.
If there is no permission order, hehe...... When the time comes, you will be robbed, but there will be no one to protect you.
Of course, people's notices will definitely not be so direct, but the meaning revealed between the lines is this.
The first order was nothing, and the second order was given, and the Terran profiteers who went to Bei Fierce City to pan for gold were dumbfounded.
There are many human races who go to Bei Fierce City to pan for gold, and many people can't sit still at this moment......
......
In Bei Fierce City, in a certain secret room, seven or eight big people with heads and faces gathered together.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the form of the city is very delicate now, and if we are not careful, our hundreds of years of hard work will be ruined. ā
"If there are any good ideas to bring up, I know that some people have a holiday with each other, but this is related to the interests of the family behind us, and I don't want to see anyone who can't tell the difference between the important and ...... at this time."
It was an old man with gray hair who spoke, and from the reactions of the other people present, it could be seen that this person's identity should be the highest here.
There was silence, and after a full seven or eight breaths, another person spoke, "Which of your families is that kid who was rumored to be from before, why did you make such a big deal and didn't give a word in advance?" According to the information I received, the City Lord's Mansion will issue such two laws, which are directly related to the little guy who caused trouble. ā
Hearing this, there was silence in the secret room again, and only after half a salary did a hoarse voice sound.
"It's not mine. ā
"I asked the people below to check before I came, and no one had ever seen that kid. ā
......
As a result, seven of the eight bigwigs in the secret room denied it, and they all looked at the remaining one.
"Lao Hei, is that kid your man?"
The Black King's power is not the top among the eight, but it is also ranked in the top three. If it was something else, they might have laughed and gone. But at this time, it is not only about the interests of their family, but also about their own safety. Therefore, the Black King remained silent, but it gave the seven bigwigs who had already denied it some other ideas.
"Hehe, red old ghost, when did I say that that kid is my person, you don't use your brain if you want to throw dirty water. ā
The two have not dealt with each other very much, and the forces under their command have often clashed with each other.
None of the others expected that at such a critical juncture, the two would have to make trouble......
"Okay, when is it? Lao Chi, you don't have to say a word. Old Black, what's going on, make it clear. ā
The old man who spoke at the beginning spoke again, and immediately shocked the two of them.
The Red Owl pursed his lips and stopped talking, but the look he looked at the Black King with the contempt of Red Fruit.
In this regard, the black king just smiled and didn't care, but when he swept the old man's gaze, he hurriedly sat down and said, "First of all, that stinky boy is not my person." "This is a big hole, don't say it's not here, even if it is, you have to say no," Guys, haven't you considered that he is a pawn of another force, or that he is simply not a ...... of any force?"
The people present were all human spirits, so they could naturally hear the hidden meaning of the Black King's words.
Someone immediately reacted and blurted out, "Lao Hei, are you saying that kid has nothing to do with us?"
"Yes, everyone present here has been "friends" for decades, so don't you know about it?"
"The kid seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and only showed one side in the Epithet Residence, and then disappeared without a trace. I asked Xiao Xiao to investigate, but nothing came of it. One thing is certain, though, no one had seen the stinky boy in town before the incident. ā
Qing Yuan's face was a little ugly, this incident was the one he suffered the most, and he naturally didn't have a good face at the moment. In his heart, he already hated the troublesome kid, and when he spoke, his expression was very hideous, "Everyone, the most important thing now is to come up with a way to deal with this crisis, instead of wasting time on an unknown junior. ā
"Senior, what did that say, what kind of charter is this "permission order"? It's about to end the year, if this is known by the clan, then I'll wait.......
He didn't say the rest of the words, except for the old man who was the leader, the faces of the others couldn't help but show a trace of apprehension.
For example, in their position, although it seems to be very dangerous, if you really want to calculate it, there will not be any danger to your life, and there is a lot of oil and water, so you are naturally reluctant to go down.
However, whether they can stay in this position or not is not up to them. After all, they are just pawns of the family behind them, and if they dislike the higher-ups, they can be made to look good in a word.
There was silence again in the chamber, and no one spoke until the candle flame was halfway through.
In the end, the old man who was still the leader couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "Okay, let's talk about it, what should I do next?" That person handed me a message, this time the attitude of the city lord's mansion was very resolute, and there were only five places in total. Who to give it to and not to whom, it hasn't been decided yet......"
The Black King was surprised and said, "Four, so few, then how can we divide it?"
"We don't have to worry about this, naturally someone will talk about it, and now we are going to discuss how to deal with that troublesome little ghost. ā
Qing Yuan licked his lips, and a trace of murderous intent appeared on his face: "Things will be like this, it's all his relationship, and it's not enough to blame for dying, in my opinion, as long as he dares to show up...... Kill!"
If the "permission order" had been enforced, he would have suffered the most out of the eight. In this way, the family will definitely not let him stay in this position again. Waiting for him, he will either go home to retire or be transferred to an unimportant position......
This is an absolutely unbearable pain for him, who has been in a high position for decades.
Therefore, among the eight people, if you want to talk about hatred for Chen Yuan, Qing Yuan definitely ranks in the top three.
"It's not necessary to kill him, perhaps, hand him over to the City Lord's Mansion, and then I'll wait for a little more up and down, maybe I can let the City Lord's Mansion take back the law?"
Qing Yuan glared at the person who spoke, and said, "If it is not my race, its heart will be different." This is something that even the aliens know. The high-level of the Bei Fierce Clan has always wanted to attack us and others, and this time they finally found an excuse, do you think they will give up easily? Hehe, it is better to kill it directly, and save it to embarrass the human race in front of the alien race. ā
"Brother Qingyuan is so murderous, but," the only woman among the eight had a voice as crisp as a warbler, but her momentum was not inferior to Qingyuan, "What's the use of killing him, it's better to arrest him and torture him, as long as you can get that inscription stone...... It's nothing to lose some profits. ā
Hearing this, except for Qing Yuan and the old man led by him, the eyes of the others lit up, they really didn't think of this.
Since it is rumored that it is the unknown boy who did the destruction of the door, the broken bones and the most important inscription may be in his hands.
It was a treasure that even the sixth-grade powerhouses were worried about.
If you can get your hands on this, not only will the clan not punish, but will also give a lot of rewards, and when the time comes......
"I still think it should be handed over to the City Lord's Mansion, I have to try, what if it happens?"
"No, he's a Terran ...... after all"
"I agree with Brother Qingyuan's opinion, for this kind of unruly boy, you must make an example of chickens and monkeys. ā
"Wake up, if I were that kid, I got the thing, why don't I go away and fly away immediately! Come back? hehe...... Unless he's stupid!"
Bang bang! bang! bang! bang!
Suddenly, there was a rhythmic muffled sound on the east wall, and those present knew that it was a contact code. But what exactly does it represent, that ......
Everyone's eyes fell on the old man at the head, this secret room was provided by the old man, what this sound meant, the old man must be clear.
The old man was also a little surprised in his heart, this was the contact code he had laid out by himself, of course he knew what it meant, and it was because he knew that he would be surprised.
Ignoring the eyes of the others, the old man got up quickly and walked quickly to a corner in the north, where there was a "Fun Picture of Spring in the Mountains and Fields".
Such a painting hanging in the secret room should have been conspicuous, but I don't know if it was the light or some other reason, no one noticed the ink painting hanging on the wall.
It wasn't until this time that the old man stepped forward and caught their attention.
The old man opened the diagram with his left hand, and at the same time reached behind the diagram with his right hand, groped for a moment, and then only heard a click, as if he had touched some kind of mechanism.
Boom, on the east wall, a gap suddenly opened that could only accommodate one person.
"Let's go!" the old man took the lead and stepped in.
The others did not dare to delay and immediately followed.
The secret passage was pitch black, and only the faint light on each person illuminated a corner of the secret passage. After all, this is the old man's territory, so it's not good to be too presumptuous......
Before the time for tea, he walked out of the secret passage, and at this time, there was an old man in the housekeeper's costume, who was here early.
When I looked back, the entrance was impressively on the back of a rockery.
The seven of them glanced at each other, and they all saw shock in each other's eyes.
Before, they followed the old man into the secret room, although they were blindfolded by special animal skins along the way, and they could not see where the entrance was. But one thing is certain, it is by no means here......
Of the seven people ...... "Old Fox", six of them were so much in their hearts.
"Everyone, come with me. ā
The old man took the person to the tea room, and when the next person boiled the tea, he waved his hand and drove the next person away.
"Lao Feng, you will say the matter again. ā
"Yes, sir," the old man dressed as a butler saluted respectfully, and said lightly: "According to the master's orders, the little one let people go to the city gate and various important crossings to guard, just now someone sent back the news that there is a young man, and his face is somewhat similar to that one. However, the young man's temperament and figure were very different from that man, and the doorman did not stop him at that time. For fear of startling the snakes, the little ones didn't let them do it, but just told them to follow the people and not lose them. Master, do you want the people below to arrest him?"
Except for the old man, they were all shocked when they heard the news. Similar? Where could such a coincidence happen? While they looked at each other, some people blushed. Before, he was sure that this person had run away, and the person came out immediately.
What is this? This is a slap in the face!
The old man took a sip of tea, then looked at the other seven people, "What do you think?"
"Kill!" Qing Yuan was full of murderous intent.
"Grab it and ask where it is. ā
"It must be caught, but after being caught, it is best to send it to the City Lord's Mansion, at least, it can show our attitude ......"
......
Everyone insisted on their own words, saying that there were two people who were killed, and among them, Qing Yuan was the most determined.
There are three people who agree to send it to the City Lord's Mansion, but among the three, there are subtle differences.
As for the rest, they tend to torture the whereabouts of the inscriptions and bones.
Regardless of their opinions, no one can convince anyone, and in the end, they even almost fought, and in the end, it was the old man who clapped the board, "Anyway, arrest people first, and then let's kill, ask, or send it to the city lord's mansion, you can discuss it again, how about this?"
"Good!"
"Great idea!"
"That's great!"
