Volume 2 The Remnant of Time Chapter 361 There is no turning back when the bow is opened

After leaving Mr. Meng's residence, Chu Qingxiao was unusually silent all the way.

Xu Yixiu followed behind Chu Qingxiao in fear, since leaving Mr. Meng's residence, the young city lord was also silent, and his face was still a little ugly, and he carefully observed Chu Qingxiao's face from time to time along the way, as if he was on guard against these things.

Chu Qingxiao didn't know what Xu Yixiu was thinking, he just kept thinking about the news he got from Mr. Meng in his mind.

He never imagined that Tianhang Mountain would be so mad.

Refining Molten Fire Dispersion, adding extremely addictive ingredients to it, and then selling it to the military headquarters of Great Xia.

It's like looking for death!

It is no wonder that the Martial Prince's Mansion is determined to eradicate the Heavenly Hanging Mountain.

In this way, Tianhang Mountain may really be in a catastrophe this time.

Thinking of this, Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but stop and looked at the street in front of him.

These ordinary residents of Tianhang City did not enjoy the benefits brought by the rise of Tianhang Mountain, and were even deceived and squeezed by Tianhang Mountain in various ways.

And most of the residents of Tianhang City these days are still the outer disciples of Tianhang Mountain.

In order to be able to enter the inner gate, they need to practice hard and earn money in exchange for various elixir exercises required for cultivation.

Just like Chu Qingxiao when they first arrived in Tianhang City, for these people, the best way is to go to Qinghuan Mansion to pick up various tasks and earn Spirit Iron Jade.

As a currency equivalent to silver, over the years, Lingtie Jade has been circulating in Tianhang City and more than 100 surrounding towns in a large area.

And once the Heavenly Hanging Mountain falls, the Spirit Iron Jade in their hands will all turn into a piece of waste without exception, worthless.

Many people will be destitute as a result.

This alone may affect millions of people.

Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this, he could only sigh, but he was powerless to change anything.

He withdrew his gaze and was about to take another step.

Bang.

Suddenly, there was a muffled sound behind him.

Chu Qingxiao was a little puzzled, he looked back, and saw that Xu Yixiu was sitting on the ground at the moment, looking at her with a pale face.

Chu Qingxiao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to help.

But when Xu Yixiu saw this, her body trembled, and she actually took a few steps back.

Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but look strange when she saw her like this, this Miss Xu was fierce and vicious to him before, whether it was doing things on weekdays or talking to him, she was extremely polite.

Why is this posture like a tiger afraid of him today?

"Miss Xu? What happened to you? Chu Qingxiao asked, as he spoke, and handed the hand that wanted to help the other party forward.

"You...... You...... What are you doing? Do you want to kill people? Xu Yixiu reacted violently, she asked in a trembling voice, and at the same time looked at the crowded street behind Chu Qingxiao, and said.

"I ...... Let me tell you, there are a lot of people here, if I yell, you can't eat, walk around......"

Chu Qingxiao heard it in a fog, he blinked his eyes, and asked strangely, "Why should I kill you?" ”

Xu Yixiu also blinked: "You talked to that masked man about so many things that shouldn't be heard by me, aren't you afraid that I will turn around and sell him to Tianhang Mountain?" ”

Xu Yixiu has been restless since she heard the conversation between Chu Qingxiao and Mr. Meng.

She once thought that Chu Qingxiao brought her, and did not shy away from communicating those "Xinmi" with Mr. Meng, probably from the beginning without planning to keep her own life.

After all, the things that the two of them talked about, no matter which one of them was brought out, was something that could be called earth-shattering, not to mention that it also involved the evil things that the army and Tianhang Mountain had done that were enough to cause the disaster of annihilation.

Chu Qingxiao was stunned when he heard this, and finally reacted, knowing what this Miss Xu was afraid of.

He was dumbfounded, and after a while, he smiled bitterly and said: "Miss Xu, you are too worried, you are the person from my Heaven Survey Division, and I took you to see Mr. Meng because I trust you, since I trust you, how can I worry that you know too much?" ”

Xu Yixiu suddenly sneered when she heard this: "Chu Qingxiao! You don't have to pretend there, now it's just you and me here, so don't pretend. ”

"Will you trust me? I am the young city lord of Jianyue City, and I came to your command to regain the dragon seal that belongs to Jianyue City! ”

Chu Qingxiao smiled bitterly, he looked at the girl in front of him who was determined that he would definitely die, thought about it seriously and then said, "Okay, I'll change my words." ”

"I'm sure that whatever your purpose is, but you won't tell anyone in Tianhang Mountain everything you heard today."

"Why?" Xu Yixiu's eyes widened and she wondered.

Chu Qingxiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Because Jianyue City is the person of the Martial Prince's Mansion, and the person who wants to bring down the Heavenly Hanging Mountain is also the Martial Prince's Mansion. ”

"If you tell Tianhang Mountain about this, the Martial King's Mansion will find the trouble of Jianyue City as soon as possible, you know better than me what the situation of Jianyue City is now, losing the Martial King's Mansion will be a catastrophe for Jianyue City."

"So, what do I have to worry about?"

As soon as Chu Qingxiao's words came out, Xu Yixiu's body trembled suddenly, and she realized that she had thought things too simply.

She looked up at Chu Qingxiao, and suddenly felt that the guy in front of her not only had strength that she couldn't understand, but also his heart and city government were too much better than her.

She couldn't imagine how a teenager who was supposed to be her age could have all of this at the same time.

And Chu Qingxiao saw Xu Yixiu's appearance, and knew that his words had persuaded the other party, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Now, can we go home?" It's not too early. ”

Chu Qingxiao said, looked up at the sky that had darkened, and did not forget to remind again: "Don't forget, the courtyard gate at home is still waiting for you to repair." ”

Xu Yixiu came back to her senses, she kept up with Chu Qingxiao's pace, but she still had doubts in her heart.

She chased after her and asked, "Since you are also in the same group as the Martial King Mansion, and you still have some evidence in your hands, why don't you take this opportunity and behave well......"

In the previous conversation between Chu Qingxiao and Mr. Meng, Xu Yixiu could clearly feel that Chu Qingxiao did not seem to be so enthusiastic about this matter, and faintly showed concern and even resistance.

It makes a lot of sense.

Chu Qingxiao, the great secretary of the Heaven Survey Division, relied on the Heaven Inspector Division to sit up, and the real power was given by the palace.

Like Jianyue City, Wuwang Mansion is a very important backer for Chu Qingxiao.

Xu Yixiu knew very well how much thought his father had spent to get the support of the Wuwang Mansion in order to please the Wuwang Mansion, but Chu Qingxiao seemed unwilling to seize this opportunity, which made Xu Yixiu incomprehensible.

When Chu Qingxiao heard this, he was silent for a while.

Then he turned his head to look at the people coming and going on the street, and said faintly, "There will be a lot of people who will die." ”

Xu Yixiu was stunned for a moment, and also looked sideways at the street.

The night is getting darker.

Some people on the street hurried home and were heartfelt, some people talked happily and smiled, some children were holding the hands of their elders and bouncing, and some women were snuggling on their lover's shoulders with autumn water in their eyes.

There are vendors shouting and drinking, and there are drunkards arguing with red faces.

It was a scene full of fireworks.

Xu Yixiu understood that Chu Qingxiao meant that once something happened to Tianhang Mountain, these people would also suffer.

But she didn't understand the logic of this, she couldn't help asking: "But the mistake is the Divine Peak of Tianhang Mountain, most of the residents of Tianhang City have never been to the inner gate in their lives, even if Tianhang Mountain really has anything, what does it have to do with them?" ”

Chu Qingxiao explained: "Under the nest, how can there be eggs? ”

"These residents of Tianhang City, many generations have lived here, and their family assets are linked to Tianhang Mountain."

"Once the Heavenly Hanging Mountain falls, not to mention more, will there still be so many outer disciples in the Heavenly Hanging City who are eager for the inner gate of the Heavenly Hanging Mountain?"

Xu Yixiu thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Most of the residents in Tianhang City these days are outer disciples who want to enter Tianhang Mountain, and once something happens to Tianhang Mountain, they will naturally fall and scatter. ”

Chu Qingxiao followed this and said: "When a large number of outer disciples leave, not to mention more, the prices in Tianhang City will plummet, and the surrounding towns will be affected, and then a large number of people who live on this matter will have no food and clothing." ”

"Pull a hair and move the whole body, the entire southern Xinjiang does not know how many industries are built around Tianhang Mountain, once something happens to Tianhang Mountain, southern Xinjiang will be in turmoil."

"Is that an exaggeration?" Xu Yixiu didn't seem to understand when she heard it, she thought about it again, and then asked: "Even if what you said is true, can't the imperial court only punish the evil head and maintain the stability of Tianhang Mountain?" Instead of necessarily uprooting the entire Heavenly Hanging Mountain? ”

"Besides, now in the summer, to put it bluntly, it's all the private property of the Martial King."

"There is really a mess in southern Xinjiang, isn't it also the Wuwangfu's own business, how can anyone lift a stone to shoot himself in the foot?"

Xu Yixiu's confusion has some truth.

Chu Qingxiao shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Some things, once they start, will no longer be controlled by people. ”

"Tianhang Mountain is such a big business, and the wealth accumulated over the years has already reached an astonishing level."

"There is everything that I don't know how many people have red eyes and the sky hangs over the mountain."

"Once the Martial Prince's Mansion moves the Heavenly Hanging Mountain, those who have been waiting for a long time will be like vultures that smell the smell of carrion, swarming here."

"They will be more enthusiastic about bringing down the Heavenly Hanging Mountain than the Martial Prince's Mansion, and then gnaw on the flesh that falls from this behemoth."

"Whether it is for Tianhang Mountain or for Wuwangfu, this matter is a matter that will go to the end once the bow is opened, and there is no turning back."

Speaking of this, Chu Qingxiao paused, then turned his head to look directly at Xu Yixiu, and said meaningfully: "In this world, there has never been a thing that has the best of both worlds......"

"We are the same, since we have become the lackeys of the Wuwang Mansion, we can only be the executioners of this execution."
