Chapter 105: Choice
Xi Zichu hurried back to the City Lord's Mansion.
The Castle Lord's Mansion is impromptu Mansion.
It is divided into the front house and the back house, the front house is the office place, and the back house is where Xi Munan's family lives.
The clan land of the Xi family is not in Jiacheng, but in the suburbs. There are many people, just like a town. Jiacheng said that it was under the rule of eight towns, and if the Xi family's land was counted, it should be nine towns.
Stepping into a side hall in the front house, Master Liu was buried in front of the case, writing something with a pen.
As soon as he saw him, Xi Zichu bit out three words from between his teeth: "Master Liu!"
"Oh, it's Childe. Master Liu glanced up at him, and then buried his head again: "The city lord has gone out, maybe when he will come back, you go to the back house and wait for him." ”
Xi Zichu walked in front of him and reached out to hold down the paper on which he was writing: "No, I'm looking for you." ”
Master Liu thought for a while, put the brush upside down on the inkstone, and raised his eyes to look at Xi Zichu: "What is the matter with the son?"
"Let me ask you, do you know what's going on in the city!"
Master Liu first stood up, walked to the door, closed the door, and then looked back at Xi Zichu: "You know?"
Xi Zichu only felt that the qi cultivation kung fu he had practiced in the East King Valley was completely wasted, and he said impatiently: "I ask you if you know!"
"Of course I know. Master Liu said.
"Very good, then you are ready to plead guilty to my father!" Xi Zichu was furious and was about to make a move.
"The lord of the city went out in person, and that's for this. Master Liu said again.
Xi Zichu retracted his hand and was shocked: "My father also knows?"
Master Liu glanced at him lightly: "Otherwise, why do you think I can mobilize the city guards?"
The mat was furious.
The pig-bone noodle poisoned the people, and he was still able to endure the killing intent and induce him to attack Jiang Wang first, because he was ready to kill this fang afterwards, so that his people could make the best use of it before he died, there was nothing wrong.
But he really couldn't understand Xi Munan and Master Liu's reaction in the face of this plague.
"You know it's the plague, but you don't respond to it in time. You are dereliction of duty! You are poisoning! You are murdering hundreds of thousands of people in the whole region!"
Looking at Master Liu's breezy appearance, he couldn't wait to slap him to death: "It must be you, a traitor, who deceived my father!"
"What do you want to do?"
At that moment, the door was pushed open.
The people who can directly push the door and enter when Xi Zichu and Master Liu are talking behind closed doors, the entire Jiacheng naturally only has Mu Nan, the chairman of Jiacheng.
"Father!" the mat looked back suddenly, his voice excited, "Do you know how dangerous the plague is, do you know what it will be like if it breaks out?"
Xi Munan looked at him quietly until he retracted and then asked, "Do you know why I'm hiding it from you?"
"Why?"
"Because you're stupid now!"
While they were talking, Master Liu quietly retreated and closed the door again. shows his proportions as a master.
Xi Zichu was furious. He didn't understand how he was so useless now.
"Someone has indeed committed an epidemic, what do you want?" Xi Munan asked his son: "The propaganda is known to everyone, and it makes hundreds of thousands of people in the entire city panic, and it causes chaos in the world?"
"And then just give the court an excuse to intervene, sweep our Xi family aside like garbage, and regain control of Jiacheng?"
"What's going on in your head? Calling your father murder?"
"Jiacheng is the fief of my Xi family for generations, and the people of Jiacheng are the foundation of my Xi family and my people!
Xi Munan swept away the tiredness between his eyebrows and eyes, and said to Xi Zichu angrily: "We did block the news and couldn't help but stop pedestrians. But this is precisely for the sake of the big picture! All the corpses that died of the epidemic were disposed of in a fixed position. All those who suffer from the plague are confined to their rooms. We've done our best! Otherwise, why do you think I'm still out there at this time? I don't care about them?"
"But......" Xi Zichu was silent for a long time before replying, "The epidemic is still expanding, isn't it?"
"It's just temporary!" Xi Munan couldn't help but be irritable: "I should have known that the White Bone Dao was uneasy and kind. That pork bone noodle man came all the way to our Jiacheng, and it was never just to eat a few people. This plague must be a conspiracy of the White Bone Dao!"
"We should announce this to the public and overcome the difficulties together!
"The common people are ignorant and ignorant, and ignorance is a kind of happiness! Moreover, what role can they play in fighting against the White Bone Dao? At the moment, we must find out where the intentions of the White Bone Dao lie. Find out who they are hiding. To deal with the White Bone Dao demons, we can invite the masters of the imperial court, but the people of Jiacheng must come by ourselves!"
Xi Zichu looked at his father and felt that he was very strange for the first time.
"So your method of resettlement is to let them sit back?"
Xi Munan looked at his son, and finally couldn't help but sigh: "My son, that's why I don't want you to know about this. You are practicing in the Dongwang Valley, healing the sick and saving people, and killing people with poison. Dongwang Valley has a double cultivation of medicine and poison, after all, medicine is the mainstay. For the sick, your practice is so much that you can't stand still. But you are the future head of my Xi family, and you must act in the interests of my Xi family as the first consideration...... My father doesn't want you to make such a choice!"
Xi Zichu closed his eyes painfully: "But now it's finally time to choose, right?"
"Our strategy to stabilize the situation cannot be changed, but now that you know about the epidemic, you can help our doctors to treat it and see if we can find a way to prevent it. As long as it remains the same, without causing panic among the people, the doctors of the whole city will be at your disposal, and you can take full responsibility for this matter!"
"Of all the medical cases I've read, the first thing to stop the spread of the epidemic is to isolate inside and outside and prohibit travel. Then it's a point-by-point and face-by-side cleanup. There is no other way!"
"You have been practicing for so many years, use your extraordinary strength to solve it!" Xi Munan said in an unquestionable tone: "No matter what, the Xi family's five-generation operation cannot be destroyed by you and me!
These words hit Xi Zichu.
The history of the family for hundreds of years is like a heavy mountain, like substance, and he can't turn over at once.
He wasn't silent for too long this time.
"On the grounds of the murder created by the pigbone noodle, there will be a curfew for two months!"
"A month and a half at most, and any more will cause panic. ”
"From now on, mobilize as many extraordinary forces as possible in our hands, and deploy them by me, so that ordinary people cannot fight against the invasion of the plague. ”
"Except for the necessary escorts, the rest are at your disposal. Xi Munan thought for a moment and added, "Except for Master Liu." ”
"All the corpses of the infestation will be burned in a centralized manner. ”
"You can decide for yourself. ”
After being silent for a while, seeing that Xi Zichu had nothing to do, Xi Munan waved his hand and said, "Go!"
