Chapter Seventy-One: Discussion
In the City Lord's Mansion, Wei Zhongli, who was leaning on the main seat, held his forehead with one hand and was silent.
And below the main seat, Yu Chi Junhao, as the deputy city lord, was also waiting there, glancing left and right.
For a while, I was very nervous.
Not for anything else. For now there are people gathered here who he cannot afford to offend.
"Knock knock."
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
"Please come in!"
Wei Zhongli's calm voice came out.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man dressed as a steward walked in:
"My subordinates meet the city lord."
"Well, how's it going? Did you find anything? ”
Wei Zhongli asked.
"Back to the city lord, it has been found, according to the report of the spies, the Eastern Barbarian Clan has united the Elephant Human Race and the Beast Clan, and is approaching the city, and it is expected that there will be two days at most."
The steward said.
"What?"
Hearing this, the faces of everyone present suddenly changed.
"What's going on? The Eastern Barbarians and the Elephant People have united? How dare they? ”
Wei Zhongli asked angrily.
"The subordinates don't know about this matter, but after hearing the spies' report, they seem to have received some support before they decided to join forces."
The middle-aged steward replied.
"Damn it, bastards! How dare you ignore my warnings. ”
Wei Zhongli slapped the table angrily.
"City Lord, what do you think you should do this time?"
Elder Xie Chen snorted coldly and said.
"What else can I do? Am I still going to be able to run? ”
Wei Zhongli said, but his eyes glanced at Chi Junhao, the deputy city lord below, hoping that he would support him in a loud voice.
It's a pity that now Yu Chi Junhao is wandering all over the world and there is no response.
"Humph! City Lord Zhong, since they have come, we should make some preparations. ”
Xiao Yaxuan added.
When Wei Zhongli heard this, his eyebrows raised: "Oh? Elder Xiao said, what is the best way? ”
Xiao Yaxuan stood up, his eyes scanned the entire hall, and then said:
"Acropolis Lord, in my opinion, the purpose of this Eastern Barbarian and Elephant Terran is nothing more than to come to this large territory, if you don't take the initiative to attack, they will continue to harass us, that will only make us fall into a passive situation, so we should take the initiative and drive them out of the Eastern Wilderness."
"This ...... Elder Xiao, I'm afraid it's not good to do this, right? ”
Yu Chi Junhao was a little worried.
"The real strength of the barbarians is the natural spells and melee strength, they have a similar system similar to that of humans, but in terms of difficulty, they are really not necessarily worse than us humans, especially the real warriors of the barbarians, they are even more brave and abnormal, with a very high sense of combat, and their average strength is far beyond us."
"Although what Elder Xiao said is right, offense is the best defense, but our Yunhai City is also an extremely strong city, and it is not so easy to break through from outside this city."
"I think we can talk to them, if we just need the territory, and we give it away, it's a little too cowardly, then it's okay to negotiate a price with them?"
Yu Chi Junhao said that the head is the Tao.
"Hahahaha."
At this moment, there were several loud laughs on the side.
Wei Zhongli and the others turned their heads and found that the person who came was none other than the leading disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect's team this time.
Gong Yuze!
"What are you laughing at, little brother? Do you have any other opinions? ”
Wei Zhongli asked with a frown.
"I'm sorry City Lord Zhong was rude just now, I think we should expand the defense line a little, after all, we still have time, and I also think that the alliance between the Eastern Barbarians and the Elephant People should be threatened by some kind of force, I think, if we take the initiative to attack, maybe we can expel them."
Gong Yuze explained with a smile.
"You mean? The force behind the Eastern Barbarians and the Elephant Humans? ”
Xiao Yaxuan asked.
"That's right, that's what I meant, after all, the union of these clans is not a day or two, this time they hurriedly sent troops, there must be internal differences, what we have to do is not to negotiate, but to kill those few talkers, so that they will have suspicion and division between each other, isn't it?"
Gong Yuze continued to say with a smile.
"Well, what the little brother said makes sense, I don't know how much the little brother knows about that force, maybe, we can follow their footsteps to find it, maybe we can really find that force, and when the time comes, we can solve both of them."
Xiao Yaxuan said.
"Hehe, Elder Xiao, it's not that simple, I just said a little suggestion, this matter should be handled by City Lord Zhong."
Gong Yuze shook his head and said.
"Okay, then leave it to the Acropolis Lord to deal with, I believe that the Zhong City Lord will have a way to deal with it."
Xiao Yaxuan said with a smile, anyway, he was only here to assist in the investigation, not to do coolies.
"Good. Since the elders believe me, then Wei is personally responsible for this matter, I will arrange for people now, and send additional people to keep an eye on the people of the Eastern Barbarian Clan and the Elephant Human Clan, once they have any movements, I will notify you as soon as possible. ”
Wei Zhongli said, not caring about Gong Yuze's offense before.
"Okay."
Xiao Yaxuan, Elder Xie Chen, and the others nodded one after another.
"Well, in addition, the guard work of the city gate is also being prepared, you don't have to worry too much, I'll go back to the room to rest for a while, and everyone will do their own thing."
Wei Zhongli stood up, and after speaking, he walked towards the attic upstairs.
"Okay, City Lord Zhong walks slowly."
Xiao Yaxuan said.
"Acropolis Lord, I have something to look for you."
Elder Xie Chen said suddenly.
"Uh...... Hehe, no need, you guys should rest early, I'll go back first. ”
Wei Zhongli waved his hand and went up the stairs.
Xie Chen looked at Wei Zhongli's back as he left, and his brows couldn't help frowning:
"This Wei Zhongli seems to be very hostile to us, is it really because of the events of that session?"
"I don't know, anyway, we're grasshoppers on a rope now, and I'm sure he won't be against us because of this."
Another Heavenly Sword Sect elder said.
Xie Chen sighed: "Alas, the incident back then, it is estimated that he will not be able to let go." ”
"It doesn't matter, no matter what, the people of the city are firmly tied to him, and he can't do anything to us, can he?"
After Li Yuanhao finished speaking, he looked at Xie Chen again and asked, "By the way, what do you think of Yu Ze's suggestion just now?" ”
Xiao Yaxuan thought for a while: "It's okay, although it's a bit bold, it's really good." ”
"It's a pity that this matter is still operated by the Zhong City Lord, and it is inconvenient for us to interfere, otherwise, I will definitely lead the team to go there in person and teach those guys a good lesson."
Li Yuanhao said angrily.
"No, let's not meddle in this matter, this time the Eastern Barbarians and the Elephant Tribes came, I'm afraid there is some conspiracy, I think, it's better for us to be careful."
Xie Chen dissuaded Li Yuanhao and said.
Li Yuanhao nodded: "En." ”
......
"Elder, do you think the Acropolis Lord will agree to our suggestion?"
Wang Mengsi asked.
"Probably will, but we must also be ready to run away at all times."
Xiao Yaxuan shook his head and said.
"Well, yes, anyway, this place has become a place of right and wrong, let's find a chance to get out of here as soon as possible."
"That's right, when everything is ready, we will immediately set off and head to the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range to find the Sword Soul Stone and the Heavenly Thunder Crystal Vein."
Xiao Yaxuan said.
"The elder's mission from that sect gave us?"
Xu Mengxian couldn't help but interject.
"Investigate a fart, in fact, there is another possibility, the shadow that appeared in the city before is likely to be caused by the force that secretly supported the barbarians, I think this is possible, and several other people have also guessed it."
"Then why didn't they say it just now?"
Xu Mengxian was full of doubts.
"You are stupid, what is the identity of the Zhong City Lord, he is a member of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but why do they look cold to the people of the Heavenly Sword Sect, if they want to say it, they said it a long time ago, and the reason why they didn't say it is that they don't want to contribute, and they are even ready to abandon this place, otherwise, once they attract the attention of that force, what will happen if they bring trouble to their own sect, and the lives of several of them may be taken at any time."
Xiao Yaxuan glared at Xu Mengxian and said.
"I see."
"Yes, Brother Xian, you idiot, you can secretly match the forces of these barbarians, do you think these people from the Heavenly Sword Sect will dare to directly confront them?"
Wang Mengsi also glared at Xu Mengxian.
"Uh, yes, hehe, I'm confused."
"Okay, okay, now everyone goes back to rest, we have to be vigilant at all times at night, and we will leave tomorrow morning, this time the matter will be handled by the City Lord's Mansion itself, you two will remember to talk to a few other disciples."
Xiao Yaxuan said with a smile.
"Okay, then Elder Lao will take care of you, you can go back early."
"Farewell."
Xiao Yaxuan left without looking back, leaving Wang Mengsi and Xu Mengxian brothers and sisters looking at each other.
This elder is very cold!
