22, was demoted to Luan Qingtai, the lord of the city

The next day, early in the morning, the crowd gathered in a vacated room.

"Is it canned again? I always eat canned food, I can't stand it~~"

Xiaoshuang looked at the cans on the table with a sad face.

Qianyue said: "It's okay not to eat canned food, you can eat other people's saliva dishes." ”

Xiaoshuang had a chill:

"Forget it, I'll eat canned food~~"

Seeing that there were no outsiders, Su Ying also drilled out:

"It's really annoying to eat canned food every day, I don't want to eat canned food!"

"Today's task is to find out the general situation of the border city below, everyone can buy some ingredients by the way, and we will do it ourselves." ”

"It's a good proposal, I agree with both hands and feet!"

Xiaoshuang was the first to agree.

Su Ying also nodded and said:

"That's what it sounds like!"

Yang Hao said: "Actually, you don't have to be so troublesome, if you want the ingredients, just let Cuizi help you get it." ”

"Emerald?"

Fei Peng's eyes immediately widened, patted Yang Hao's shoulder, and looked at him.

"Ahem, didn't you let me guard the car last night? A person is too bored, so I chatted with Cuizi for a few words, and then ......"

Yang Hao is rare and a little embarrassed.

"Dead scumbag!"

It's really convincing, Yang Hao's ability, Feipeng can have a tenth, and he will not be single until now.

Su Zheng said: "Qianyue and Yucheng stayed in the hotel, optimistic about our things, and the others went out to investigate the situation in the border city." ”

Let Yucheng stay, naturally because Yucheng is not good at communicating with people.

Qianyue was left because her temperament was too easy to provoke right and wrong, and when the news was not found, it was easy to get into trouble.

Chizuki herself understands this and does not object.

After leaving the hotel, Su Zheng went alone in the direction of the city lord's mansion.

This is the goal that he mainly understands today.

There is very little surveillance in the city below, and there are often only one or two main roads that have fallen into disrepair.

Sukao tried to borrow the perspective of the surveillance, and found that the surveillance had long been broken, and it was just pretending to be there.

There are no traffic lights at intersections, and everyone drives to and fro, all on their own initiative.

Fortunately, there are not many vehicles in the city below, otherwise the traffic jam alone can be jammed all day long.

The main planning of the city is not bad, and it can be seen that the original design of the city is very standard.

It's a pity that there is no planning for the subsequent houses and residences, which makes the layout of the city a little chaotic.

In order to increase the efficiency of exploration, Sue Zai began to use the perspective of various critters in the city to view.

Because as long as a person does not exert elemental power, it is not easy to tell whether he is an elemental master or not.

I didn't want to expose one of my skills inexplicably, so I naturally chose to act cautiously.

With the perspective of many small animals, Su Zai's knowledge of the corners of the city has skyrocketed, and it is estimated that even the local snake that has been in the local area for many years can not compare.

Soon, Suzai finds a group of people gathered in front of a bulletin board.

This caught his attention.

The network in the lower border city is very underdeveloped, and most areas are unconnected, so most of the transactions are in cash.

In addition to being posted on the Internet, announcements are more often published through newspapers and bulletin boards.

It's just that the view of the stray dog closest to the bulletin board was blocked, and he had to go there himself.

The height of people here is generally low, and the two-meter-tall Shuzai can see the contents of the bulletin board only from the periphery.

There is not much to say about the content of the previous issues, but the latest news is noticeable.

The City Lord's Mansion plans to gather all the bandit forces near the Lower Border City in the Wolf Smoke Mountain, twenty miles to the west, to jointly fight against the corpse demons that have been rampant for nearly half a year.

Seeing this news, many people talked about it.

"Is this okay to work with bandits?"

"Desolate bandits are also human beings, and they have to fight against corpse demons, why not?"

"But I always feel that the bandits are unreliable, these guys, bullying the weak are good hands, if you want to fight with the corpse demon, I'm afraid you can't count on it."

"Yes, I guess when the war starts, they will probably be the first to escape."

"The bandits aren't so unbearable, I think it's still a little possible."

Su Zheng silently listened to everyone's discussions, collected useful information, and found that everyone's evaluation of the city lord was not bad.

The lord of the city below seems to be a beloved one.

Su Zheng found an old man who looked a little old, and took out 100 green pattern coins and said:

"Uncle, can I ask you a few questions?"

The old man looked at the blue pattern coin in his hand and nodded.

"Can you tell me about the castle lord?"

"The city lord~~ is a good person, it is said that because he is too upright, he was excluded by others, and he was assigned to the lower city.

I've been here for 30 years.

It stands to reason that retirement is long overdue.

But because no one has taken his place, he has been holding on and dragging like this.

He is 86 years old this year. ”

"Did he contribute much to the Lower City?"

"Big, why not big!

Build city walls, pave roads, fight bandits, and eliminate gangsters in the city......

In the event of a natural disaster, under the pressure from above, the official warehouse was opened to release grain.

There was a shortage of water in the city, so he personally led the team to dig a canal to supply water to the city......"

The more the old man talked, the more energetic he became, and even talked about the fact that he was building the city wall with the city lord when he was young.

Su Zheng bowed slightly, it seems that this city lord is a rare good official.

It's ironic to think about it, it's ridiculous that such a good official has been trapped in such a poor country for 30 years.

"Can you ask what is the name of the city lord?"

"Luan Qingtai."

Then, Su Zheng chatted with the old man for a long time.

In addition to the city lord in the city, there should have been the position of the deputy hall master of the Concentration Hall and the Shouzheng Hall.

But the successive deputy hall masters couldn't stand the harsh environment here, and they were transferred away one after another through the backstage.

Later, there was no one to take over, and in desperation, the city lord canceled the setting of the centering hall and the main hall here, and established a city guard, which was commanded by the city lord himself.

It can be regarded as a grasp of military and political power, and it is said in the lower border city.

It's just that no one envies such a city lord, they just think he's sad.

The old man said that he was moved to cry, and he was crying.

Seeing that there was no more useful news, Su Zheng gave the old man 100 blue coins, but the old man grabbed his sleeve and said:

"After saying so much, I even dried up my tears, I have to add money!"

......

After a day of shopping, he basically figured out the surroundings of the City Lord's Mansion, and also got a more detailed map.

In the evening, I returned to the "Tangkang Hotel" safely.

The others have almost returned, and Yang Hao is the last to come back.

Suzai first talked about the situation of the city lord and the city lord's mansion.

After hearing this, everyone sighed a little, to be honest, they admired this city lord.

After talking about the city lord, Su Zheng asked:

"What about you?"

Several others mainly gathered information about bandits in the nearby area and some information about the Broken Mountains.

It's just that whether it is the information of the bandits or the intelligence of the Longitudinal Mountain Range, it is a bit outdated, and there is no latest news.

This is also something that can't be helped, since the rise of the corpse demon, the people in the city are all non-essential, and if they don't go out of the city, the news they get will naturally lag behind.

Yang Hao said: "I found out an interesting news. ”

Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, Yang Hao smiled and said:

"Do you know what it means to be a small demon in the temple and a shallow water king?

The city below is it!

In a small lower city, there are actually six major families, do you think it's ridiculous? ”

"The six families? What for? ”

"The six families of Jing, Tai, Pu, Zhuo, Xu, and Tan occupy all the useful resources within a radius of thousands of miles, including water, timber, minerals, transportation, production, and other industries that can make money.

Of course, according to my initial observations, these industries are all under the guise of a disguise, and in fact they have other tasks. ”

"Another mission?"

"Yes, because according to the information I have obtained, even if I have these resources in hand, at most I can only make one or two families make money, and it is absolutely impossible to support the six major families.

So I concluded that they must have another mission!

It's just that there is no internal information channel, and I don't know what their details are. ”

"It seems that we need to pay attention to these six families."

......
