Chapter 75: Slap in the face

Hearing Ge Tianbing's words, Yan Sha's face suddenly turned pale, he suddenly felt a little dry in his throat, looked around, and found that everyone's eyes were looking at him.

"This, this is related to the secrets of the trading house, I'm afraid it's ......"

"Yan Sha!" Ge Tianbing suddenly burst out, gritting his teeth and saying: "Do you still want to hide it now? Do you think you can't find out if you don't say Lao Tzu! Horse thieves! The buyers of those forty war horses are the group of horse thieves who burned and looted outside the city!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall stared at Yan Sha in disbelief with wide eyes in shock. In the desert, horse thieves were the most hated enemies of the merchant hunting team in the past, they burned, killed, looted, raped, and plundered, and Xia Lu had clearly stipulated that anyone who colluded with horse thieves would be severely punished.

Yan Sha's face changed miserably, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead instantly, and he defended in a trembling voice: "City Lord, you, don't spew blood! I, how could our Yan family sell the war horse to a horse thief! Even if, even if there is an occasional mistake, it is that the other party hides too deeply, after all, we who are a trading house have no right to check the identity of the buyer, right?"

"What Boss Yan said is not unreasonable. Yu Hua of the auction house answered: "We have rules for doing business, and it is also one of the rules that we can't ask about the identity and background of the buyer, even if Boss Yan inadvertently sold a few horses to the horse thief, the city lord shouldn't use this matter to erase the contribution of the Yan family horse shop to Black Rock City over the years, right?"

Without waiting for everyone to speak, two cold rays shot out of Ge Tianbing's cold eyes, hooking Yu Hua's face like two hooks.

"Boss Yan, even if the identity of the buyer can't be inquired, if you still do business with them when you know that the seller is a demon, how do you think you should be convicted according to Xia Law?"

Hearing this, the corners of Yu Hua's mouth twitched violently a few times, and his voice became strange: "Lord Gecheng, what do you mean by this?"

"Do you really want Lao Tzu to make his words clear?" Ge Tianbing narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Then everyone's face will have to be torn." ”

Yu Hua looked at Ge Tianbing's eyes, his face changed several times, and he didn't say a word again in the end.

Seeing that the heads of the three families were silent, Ge Tianbing's gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the hall, and the leaders of the mercenary hunting teams on the right seat all dodged and lowered their heads.

"Seven months ago, Muyang entered the city. Ge Tianbing's cold voice sounded again in the hall.

Within 20 days, he subdued more than 40 ruffians and hooligans in the south of the city, and let more than 500 surrounding families live a peaceful life. In the past six months, he has assisted the main garrison of the city, thirteen demon exterminator patrols, and personally killed one hundred and seventeen horse thieves, so that the number of caravans robbed in the past has been reduced from an average of nineteen times a month to six times, and everyone here should be a beneficiary. ”

"Xue Sanliang occupied the north of the city, scourging the people, in the past ten years, every time the senators have joined forces to get rid of this cancer, you are afraid that your own interests will be damaged, and you always shirk it for various reasons, and finally it is Muyang and the more than 40 ruffians who assisted the city lord to uproot it, and then what? Not only did you not give a copper coin to compensate those dead soldiers, but instead started the idea of Xue Fu's land, is this for the sake of the people?"

Taking a deep breath, Ge Tianbing looked at the heads of several major families, and said hatefully: "Today, the demon army is besieging the city, and the symbiosis drum is beating in the city, as the most powerful and famous family in Black Rock City, there are countless strong people and masters in the clan, have you ever sent a person to help defend the city? It was Mu Yang who helped the city lord to repel the demon army regardless of life and death, so that Black Rock City would not fall, at that time, you thought about the people...... Where have you been?"

"Now, the demon army has been defeated and retreated, and it is proposed to hand over Muyang as a condition for retreating, at this time you are moved, and you are all here? Yes, Muyang is the son of the true demon, which makes you afraid, afraid, and even hateful, but why is it that a guy who is considered evil and cruel and a hybrid of human and demon can be born and die for the people of Black Rock City, while your self-proclaimed righteous Daxia famous family is hiding behind the scenes and secretly doing the ugly things of cruelty to the people of the city, fornicating with horse thieves, and colluding with the demon clan! Now, you dare to run into the city lord's mansion in a high-sounding manner, saying that it is for the sake of the people and for the sake of Great Xia, it is really shameless! According to Lao Tzu, you are for yourself!"

Ge Tianbing's sonorous and powerful voice was like a heavy hammer that kept falling, hitting the hearts of everyone in the hall, and many people lowered their heads in shame, and the momentum of the previous righteous Ling Ran had long disappeared without a trace.

The hall fell silent again.

Ye Yu blinked her beautiful big eyes, and with Ge Tianbing's voice, the whole person's affection was also driven, she turned her head from time to time to glance at Muyang, and her beautiful little face gradually shone brightly, she was a little admired, very excited, even proud, proud, as if it was not Muyang who was praised, but herself, undisguised appreciation emerged in her bright eyes, and when Ge Tianbing's voice suddenly stopped, she raised her little hand and began to applaud.

Crisp applause came from the corner, especially loud in the silent hall, if in normal times, there would be people in the banquet to echo it, but today is different, no one applauded, because Ge Tianbing's generous statement scolded him, they were frightened, guilty, frightened, and the snapping applause was like a slap in their faces, making those who lowered their heads droop lower, and their red faces became even redder.

"Okay, it's so good to scold! It's just shameless!" Ye Yu giggled happily, she put her shoulder on Muyang's arm, "I didn't expect you, you're quite powerful...... Sisi, why don't you applaud? This is praising Muyang. ”

When a person is humiliated in public, he or she reacts differently, anger, shame, resentment, and even doubles the insult by force.

Ge Tianbing's words scolded almost everyone present, they didn't dare to refute because they were weak-minded, and they didn't dare to fight back because they were weak, but they didn't care about venting their inner depression and anger on others.

This is a common problem of human beings, and of all intelligent races -- bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

Ye Yu's untimely applause lasted only a few breaths before being interrupted by Cao Qidou, because he was too angry, his harsh voice was full of resentment, and the next shot was even more vicious, without any warning, he pounced on Ye Yu.

"Where did you come from, wild girl, looking for death!"

As soon as the voice started, a dazzling light lit up in the council hall, and a layer of yellow-brown brilliance suddenly appeared on Cao Qidou's arm hanging by his side, he raised his hand suddenly, his five fingers turned into claws, and grabbed Ye Yu's neck fiercely, judging from the Xingyuan surging between his fingers, it was obvious that he had used all his strength.
