Chapter 341: The Surviving
Cries came from all directions.
In the inner city of the mountain city, there are white lanterns hanging in front of almost every house.
Tang Wen and the heads of the three families in the inner city, the leaders of the five major forces in the outer city, and the group shuttled through the streets of the inner city.
There were too many people killed in battle.
In the entire mountain city, seven or eight out of ten families are all doing funerals.
And the people who sacrifice are often the pillars of one family after another.
The problems faced by their families are not only the burial of people after they die, but also the livelihood of the future and the cultivation of the next generation.
In the inner city, Tang Wen took the heads and leaders of various families to the door one by one to appease.
Those who can let him come to the door have five strong people in the family who died in battle.
The mountain city has changed so much now, and it has to give most of the income to the White Tiger Tribe.
Tang Wen and the other eight leaders need to go door-to-door to give an explanation.
Of course, the bereavement pension that should be given is still a lot, and the children of each family should still be taken care of.
"Madame doesn't have to be polite"
"Li Shao, get up!"
"Kid! Your father will not die in vain, I will build a monument in the city and engrave the names of all the sacrificed soldiers in the mountain city! Let everyone in the city go to worship, even if thousands of years have passed, even if we are gone, future generations will not forget their names! ”
"Thank you, Lord Castle!"
"Ma'am, it doesn't have to be that way."
“……”
Everyone said it, and Tang Wen was dry at the end of the day.
After the family finished speaking, they came to the door of the last big force - the mansion of the former gang leader of the boat gang.
The third child of the boat gang personally led the way in front, and every move, like a housekeeper greeting the guests, and like a dog's leg in front of the master to open the way.
Before the boat gang, he stood with the Huang family and repeatedly disrespected Tang Wen.
Fortunately, what relieved the current acting leader of the Boat Gang, the third boat, was that the eldest and second eldest of his head were dead, and he had not had any conflict with the Lord of Tang Wen.
Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to reverse Tang Wen's bad feelings towards the boat gang.
What?
Maybe the lord won't target the boat gang?
Then increase the goodwill!
"The surviving have seen the lord of the castle."
A faint fragrant breeze hit, and a woman with black hair and white clothes, Wan Tingting, walked out of the mourning hall and knelt down to pay respects.
She knelt on her knees with her hips wide above her shoulders, the moon raised high and waves on her chest.
"Madame doesn't have to be polite." Tang Wenxu gave him a hand, and a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Women should be pretty, filial piety.
Mrs. Zhao of the old family got up slowly, but she didn't play her cards according to common sense, and really put her slender and tender little hand on Tang Wen's hand and pressed it, making a gesture of getting up with strength.
Tang Wen: This woman seems to be extraordinary, right?
In front of so many people behind you, you and I played Chaofan and couldn't stand up on the ground?
He withdrew his hand and spoke in a slightly flat tone.
After that, he didn't say anything, even if it was a meal, he refused Mrs. Zhao's repeated invitations. Turn around and lead the person to the next house.
This woman, the last time we met by chance, I felt like a vixen who had just succeeded in ascending to the top.
Today, she has become a glamorous and dignified helper's wife.
Looking at the backs of Tang Wen and the others, Mrs. Zhao sighed silently: It's not that I'm in a hurry, I really don't have a chance to meet.
Five of the ship's gang were killed in the battle.
was about the same number as the number of people who died in Tang Wen's hands, and the five families were quickly visited.
Tang Wen had dinner with the leaders of the various families, as well as Huyun, Shui Yun, Ah Qi and others.
If you take the benefits, you will naturally take responsibility.
In order to reassure them, Hu Yun took the initiative to speak: "I have informed the members of the hunting group, and they are rushing over day and night. ”
Everyone put down their wine glasses, their eyes flashing with excitement.
Hu Yun: "Seven people and seven tigers, all of them are the pinnacle of the five grades, there are thunder departments, wind departments, and ground departments, rich combat experience, and many means of cooperation. ”
The faint pride in her tone was undisguised.
Shui Qianjun praised with satisfaction: "Great! Fourteen masters at the pinnacle of the fifth grade. ”
Huang Shisan's tone was full of admiration: "Your Excellency Huyun is really amazing!" There are so many five-rank peak powerhouses under his command! In a few days, the safety of the mountain city will be guaranteed! ”
"Yes, fourteen fifth-grade masters, we have seen the combat power of the White Tiger Tribe, and it is absolutely no problem to beat the two of us alone."
"Both? I saw it that day, and the four fifth-rank demons couldn't get close. ”
It's not just for the sake of sycophancy.
The peak of the White Tiger Tribe's five grades, and its combat power is indeed the first gear.
They live in the 100,000 mountains all year round, fighting to the death with the most terrifying five-rank beasts, which are much stronger than the ordinary five-rank.
Hu Yun took a sip of wine and said, "However, they are not good at defense. ”
Well?
"After coming, rest for a few days, I will send them out to search for demons, take the initiative to attack, and play defensive battles too passively!"
"Lord Huyun!" Vice President Qian of the Chamber of Commerce raised his glass.
The banquet was full of beautiful words.
After praising the reliability of the White Tiger Tribe, the combat power is not bad, and he slapped Huyun and Tang Wen's sycophants for a long time.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "Lord City Lord, Lord Huyun, I don't know when the master under your command will arrive?" It's not that I'm urging you, now that the strength of the mountain city is insufficient, we old guys can't sleep well every night. ”
Hu Yun glanced at the elder of the Lu family, who spoke: "They travel day and night, and they will also use some other means to assist in the journey, and they should come within seven days and nights." ”
"Good, good! Thank you, Lord Huyun! Thank you, Lord! The old decay is the first to do it as respect. ”
After saying that, he raised the jar and drank heartily.
Tang Wen smiled, saw everyone looking at him, and said unhurriedly:
"The Holy Maiden of the White Tiger Tribe also agreed, and the seven White Tiger Guards composed of seven people and seven tigers are already on the way here, except for the two masters of the water department, the remaining five people are from the wind department.
As for the realm, needless to say, there is no one who is not the peak of the fifth grade of the White Tiger Guards or the members of the White Tiger Hunting Group. ”
It is also fourteen powerhouses at the peak of the fifth grade.
"Great! In this way, with the addition of those of us, our strength has not weakened much. ”
"Yes! Moreover, there is also the wise leadership of the Tang Wen City Lord, as well as the Lord of the Four Rank Shadow Tiger! ”
"It's completely safe here. It's all up to the two adults, everyone, let's raise a glass to the city lord and Huyun! ”
“……”
Shui Qianjun was forced to toast his own apprentice and his future apprentice's daughter-in-law.
Feng Sanniang also wants to toast to her lover and the "love rival Huyun".
Tang Wen drank a few glasses of "Immortal Drunk", did not deliberately suppress the strength of the wine, and his face was red under the light.
"City Lord, my subordinates are only shallow in learning, and I don't know how our ship gang should do business with the Chamber of Commerce?" The boat gang is the leader, and the third boat member bends down slightly to speak, looking as sincere and sincere.
It is a sure thing that the boat gang, the chamber of commerce, and the horse gang should join forces to do business.
The strength of the three is not much left in this big war.
Without merger, it is completely impossible to maintain its own position by virtue of its own merits.
Tang Wen saw that the other party did not object, and approached with a positive face, and his heart was also very comfortable.
I suddenly remembered why the leaders were always surrounded by sycophants.
I have to say that such a person will indeed make himself feel comfortable.
"The cargo terminal of the boat gang can increase our shipments. The high-quality pack animals bred by the caravan can be rented out and sold, and can also be used to transport goods between lands. The two of you have been based on these as the foundation of their lives, and after the establishment of the United Chamber of Commerce, these will become the main resources of the United Chamber of Commerce. Naturally, you can benefit from this. ”
The leader of the horse gang and the leader of the boat gang nodded again and again, very approving.
They don't dare to disapprove.
As for the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Feng Sanniang, who has just taken office, will not have any opinions.
She and Tang Wen are a family, and their husbands sing and their wives follow.
Vice President Qian of the Chamber of Commerce: United Chamber of Commerce, just listen to the name, you know that our Chamber of Commerce is still the mainstay.
Besides, everyone is the president of the Feng, and they are afraid that the city lord will not take care of the interests of the Chamber of Commerce?
There is no room for other forces to intervene.
"What about selling the skins and flesh of the five different beasts from the 100,000 Great Mountains?" The leader of the horse gang mentioned.
"No problem, I can give you some skins and meat." Huyun promised.
The eyes of everyone in the mountain city showed joy.
The leader of the horse gang was bold and said: "Our horse gang is good at cultivating young beasts, if there are cubs, we can cultivate them on our behalf." ”
Hu Yun looked at him: "Do you think that the White Tiger Tribe does not have this kind of cultivation method. ”
"Huh? We can crossbreed exotic beasts, especially herbivorous ones. ”
Only then did Hu Yun nod: "If there is a suitable one, I will give it to you." ”
"Thank you, Lord Huyun! Thank you, Lord! ”
Finish a meal.
The heads and leaders of the mountain city finally let go of their original worries.
After many days of depression, they couldn't help but drink a few more jars of "fairy drunk".
This kind of wine is brewed from the blood marrow of a five-grade beast, and the strength of the medicine and wine is not small, and a few jars are down, without deliberately suppressing it, even if they are all five-grade, they are beginning to get dizzy.
For the leaders of each family, it can be regarded as a rare relaxation.
Tang Wen went to them.
"Lord of the city, my subordinates have something to report to you."
Huyun has long since left the stage, and she is going to the Shadow King to receive guidance.
Feng Sanniang also went back, she was going to discuss various matters with Shui Yun, for the two girls, today is probably a sleepless night.
Tang Wen carried the wine jar and went out of the hospital half drunk and half awake.
In front of him is the City Lord's Mansion.
After the reconstruction, it will be his territory.
However, Tang Wen did not plan to live in it.
I am not a fourth grade, what do I do in the city lord's mansion.
Besides, the successive city lords here have all lost themselves under the influence of the Iron Crown, and live like puppets who only know how to protect justice. Living here feels a little unlucky.
"Lord of the Castle." Coming out of the door was the Ship Gang's Acting Leader.
Tang Wen glanced back at her.
The boat gang came to him, consciously half a position behind, and his tone was quite emotional: "This city lord's mansion, I was both afraid and longed for when I was a child. ”
"What about the truth when you found out?"
"Then all that's left is fear, and of course, respect." Speaking of this, he hurriedly changed the subject: "Of course you are different, Lord City, we will completely renovate this place when we go back, and it would be better for you to live in it again." ”
Tang Wen shook his head and smiled: "That's not necessary." If you can't hold it, keep it. ”
"Or are you thoughtful, it's really uncomfortable to live here. It's better to keep it and miss the predecessors of the past! ”
The boat gang leader naturally changed his point of view, and blurted out almost without much thought.
"You, you!" Tang Wen stretched out his finger and pointed at him, shaking his head and smiling.
"Hey, hey! Childe, you know clearly, I was originally a No. 3 person who waited to retire, who would have thought that the demon disaster would come inexplicably, and everyone in the gang who was stronger than me died.
I'm the only one left, and I have to find a way to hold up the boat.
But I don't have that ability! I can only come and hug your thighs. ”
The acting leader of the boat gang did not hide it at all, and directly said what he wanted.
Tang Wen naturally won't promise anything, just draw cakes: "Do things with heart, and the benefits will not be less." ”
"Yes, you have high aspirations, city lord. The boat gang must work hard. ”
The two of them talked for a while.
Tang Wen drew a few cakes, and the boat gang helped the leader eat them all.
The sycophants are one after another, and the shooting makes people so uncomfortable.
"Lao Li, what do you want to say? Go ahead. ”
After a few rounds, Tang Wen, who hadn't thought much about it, also sensed that this acting helper had something on his mind.
"Hehe, city lord, then I'll say it."
"Say." Tang Wen raised the jar and took a sip.
Gang Master Li began to transmit: "Lord City Lord, do you still remember the disrespect that the ship boss did to you in the past?" ”
Tang Wen was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "If a person is alive, I will definitely retaliate, he is dead, let the past go with the wind." ”
"The heart of the lord of the city is indeed as broad as the sea and as ...... as the sky."
"Stop, stop, stop. Substandard. ”
"Hehe, I haven't said these words for a long time, I'll go back and read the book."
Sycophants still read?
Tang Wen was amused: "Don't think about what you don't have, you have the time to work hard." ”
Gang Leader Li shook his head: "City Lord, don't be fooled, I won't work in person for a long time." I don't believe you'll take care of those mundane tasks yourself. ”
Tang Wengang wanted to say a few words to him, turned his head and saw the old guy coming over with a mysterious face, and transmitted: "Lord City, I plan to bribe and bribe you, I don't know if you have a good time, or, I'll take you to another place, let's have a few more drinks?" ”
Seeing that he looked obscene, squeezing his eyebrows, where could Tang Wen not know what he was talking about.
However, Tang Wen is not interested in flower wine, after all, Feng Sanniang, the first beauty in the mountain city, is his beloved wife, who can compare to her in the Qinglou that was established?
What's more, there are several beauties in his family who are not inferior to Sanniang.
"Lord of the City, what I said is different from him." Lao Li didn't give up and continued to spread the voice: "That woman is a stunner, and his man is my old Li's enemy." You help teach her a lesson, how about giving me a breath! ”
A figure jumped out of Tang Wen's mind, his heart moved slightly, and he looked at Lao Li with a smile: "Then tell me, what kind of enemy?" ”
"Hehe, his man used to be disrespectful to you, he is my biggest enemy!"
"Hahaha", Tang Wen laughed loudly: "Lao Li, Lao Li, don't let me make mistakes." ”
Gang Leader Li hurriedly patted his chest: "Lord City, how can you make a mistake, everything you do is right, who dares to live up, I will be the first to disagree." Please, let's go to the front to admire the moon. ”
With that, he led the way.
"Meow?"
Seeing that Tang Wen was leaving, the two white cats suddenly jumped out of the darkness and jumped onto Tang Wen's shoulders.
"My lord, what is this?"
"Hehe, my little kitten."
"Oh, that's handsome! It's better than an ordinary cat, I don't know how strong it is! Gang Leader Li was shocked.
He is also considered to be the pinnacle of the fifth grade, but he stood there for a long time just now, let alone a cat, and he didn't even see a single cat hair.
These two white cats, the means are unfathomable.
Gang leader Li bent his waist a little more, led the way, and came to a wealthy compound.
The former gang leader of the boat gang who came to the house not long ago.
It was here that Tang Wen met that Mrs. Zhao.
