"Reporting to the city lord, I... I am just following orders..."

"On orders? Whose orders are you on?"

"Yes... it's Commander-in-Chief Xue. This... these are all his orders!"

"So, Mr. Xue ordered you to oppress the people?"

"Ah!?" When Wan Dong said this, Mr. Hu screamed out in shock. If Xue Dongfeng heard this, it would be strange if he didn't skin him.

It is unspeakable to do something like bullying the common people. Counting all the corrupt officials throughout the ages, which one is not scraping the land while trying hard to build up the false reputation of being honest and upright? On the surface, it seems that they want to be both honest and honest.

Biao Zi, I want to give it again

They set up a chastity memorial arch themselves, but in fact, they are so 'tired' just to give an explanation to their superiors. Otherwise, all those corrupt officials would be openly shouting that they want to make money and bully the people, but their faces would not be the same.

The good-looking ones are not them, but the Emperor!

"Lord City Lord, this... this matter has nothing to do with Lord Xue. It's all a small thing... a small one who is obsessed with it, a small one who is guilty, a small one who is guilty..."

If this dirty water is poured on Xue Dongfeng's head, not only will the person named Hu die, but his family will also hardly end up well. Everything is covered, and maybe Xue Dongfeng can protect him.

When the time comes, if you don't become an official, you can go home and be a rich man.

"Wow! Mr. Hu is so righteous and will never bring trouble to the summit. I admire him! Since Mr. Xue didn't order you to oppress the people, then you are seeking death yourself! Someone, drag him out and chop him up!"

"Ah!? City Lord, have mercy on me, City Lord, have mercy on me!" Mr. Hu still thought of things simply. He didn't expect that although Wan Dong was young, he was decisive in killing him. He actually wanted to kill him and not give Xue Dongfeng any chance.

Give him a chance to plead for mercy. How can this be done? Mr. Hu's face turned pale at that time, and his head banged, as if he didn't know the pain at all.

"You oppress the people and act like a bully, but you still have the nerve to ask me to spare your life? Okay! Then give me a valid reason!"

"Lord City Lord, I'm young..." The bully came to the head of the City Lord's eldest brother, and he was even caught by the City Lord. Not to mention that Mr. Hu only has one head, even if he is covered with heads, what can he come up with?

Reason?

At this moment, seeing Wandong's cold eyes and murderous intent, he felt that the blood all over his body was freezing.

Wan Dong chuckled lightly and said, "Let's do this. I will give you another chance. Are you following Xue Dongfeng's order when you come here?"

"Ah? This..." After hearing what Wandong said, Mr. Hu's heart suddenly moved, and his mind suddenly became alive.

Mr. Hu is a smart man, but he was just frightened. At this time, he sent Wan Dong’s words back to him and thought about it a few times, and he immediately understood the meaning. The new city lord seemed to have a certain understanding of the matter.

Xue Dongfeng was not very happy.

What should I do? Should I submit to the new city lord or give my life to Xue Dongfeng? Bah! Xue Dongfeng is not my biological father, and he has never raised me for a day, so why should I give my life to him? ***, wealth and honor

Finding something out of danger, maybe this is the turning point in my life, Hu Gui!

Hu Gui's mind wandered several times. Instead of dying right away, it was better to give it a try!

"To the Lord of the City, I remember, I just followed Lord Xue's order, and there is nothing wrong with it!"

A smile appeared on Wan Dong's face, he nodded slightly and said, "I'm just telling you! How did you, a small commander, get such courage? After all, you are also acting under orders, and you have no choice but to do so today.

I’ll give you a break! However, you have to compensate me according to the price for the things you damaged, no less!”

"This is nature, this is nature!" Hu Gui breathed a sigh of relief when Wandong said this. As for losing money, it was nothing at all! Hu Gui hurriedly took out all his money, and even

He also searched his subordinates with beatings and scoldings, and finally handed a large bag of broken silver notes to Zhu Cai with both hands.

Zhu Cai took a look at it and realized that with all the money, he could build a new inn.

"Brother, since they are the ones compensating you, just accept it!" Seeing Zhu Cai's hesitation, Wandong opened his mouth and said.

"Yes, yes, it's all young people who are blind and have offended the eldest master. Please don't take offense, eldest master!" Hu Gui also said to Zhu Cai with a smile on his face. With that look, he just wished he could kneel down and Tiantian Zhu Cai.

Toes are the best.

The usually dignified official turned into a lap dog at this time, flattering him in every possible way. Zhu Cai was obviously not used to it. However, he still listened to Wandong's words and collected the silver.

"Hmph... Mr. Hu?"

"Goodbye, farewell, city lord, how can I bear the responsibility of calling you this? My surname is Hu and my name is Gui. You... just call me Hu Gui."

Wan Dong nodded and said, "Hu Gui! Send someone to call Xue Dongfeng immediately. Tell him that I am waiting for him at the City Lord's Mansion and ask him to come see me as soon as possible!"

"Lord City Lord, you... do you want to..." Seeing Wandong's unkind expression, Hu Gui felt very nervous.

"Hu Gui, you seem to have a lot of problems."

"No... no, no! I'll send someone here, I'll send someone here!" Wan Dong's eyes were as cold as ice, and Hu Gui was frozen alive. He dared to ask nonsense again, so he hurriedly

Order someone to invite Xue Dongfeng.

After bidding farewell to Zhu Cai, Wandong took Hu Gui and went straight to the city lord's palace.

"What? The new city lord has arrived?" Xue Dongfeng was really surprised when he received the message.

The officers and soldiers who came to invite him nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes! The Lord of the City has an order, please go to the Lord of the City to see him immediately!"

"You want me to see him, right away? Hahaha... It seems that this kid really thinks of himself as the Lord of Divine Thunder City. Okay! I will go to see him right away, and I will also let him know by the way, although he

He is the city lord, but he may not have the final say in this Divine Thunder City! Someone is here!"

Xue Dongfeng deliberately wanted to give Wandong a blow, and when he roared out, dozens of people immediately rushed in, all of them were Xue Dongfeng's personal guards, all masters, and rushed straight to the city lord's mansion. For those who don't know,

, I thought Xue Dongfeng was preparing to attack the city lord’s mansion!

At the same time, in the city lord's palace, Hu Gui carefully waited beside Wan Dong, not even daring to be distracted.

He could finally see that although the new city lord was young, he was definitely a master, and he was also the kind of master who couldn't afford to offend!

"Hu Gui, what are you and your people searching for today?"

Wan Dong suddenly asked casually, his eyes not falling on Hu Gui, but Hu Gui still felt a pressure that was almost unbearable.

Under this heavy pressure, how could Hu Gui dare to tell lies? He said truthfully, "Miss Chu suddenly disappeared. I followed Xue Dongfeng's order to search in the east of the city!"

Wan Dong nodded slightly, seeming to be very satisfied that Hu Gui could tell the truth. When Hu Gui saw him, a lot of the pressure on him was immediately relieved.

"Besides you, are there other people searching?"

Wandong's nod was like an encouragement to Hu Gui, and Hu Gui replied without thinking, "Yes! Because Xue Dongfeng asked us to search every house, not letting go of an inch, so it requires a lot of manpower."

It’s big, and it’s extremely troublesome. Besides me, there are several groups of people who are also searching in the east of the city. In addition, I have a brother who was sent to the west of the city.”

"The ghost imperial army appeared in the south of the city last night. Today they are searching the east and west of the city. That means that tonight it is the turn of the north of the city..."

"Huh? Mr. Landlord, I didn't hear what you said clearly."

Wandong smiled and said, "It's nothing! Hu Gui, I want to give you a great opportunity to make meritorious deeds, but I don't know if you have the guts to do it!"

"Of course! Just ask the city lord!" Hu Gui said happily.

Wandong said, "Tonight, I want you to lead your troops and ambush them secretly in the north of the city. Once you find anyone from the Ghost Imperial Army, kill them immediately!"

"Ghost Imperial Army?!" Hu Gui obviously did not expect that the opportunity for meritorious service that Wan Dong mentioned would be to ambush the Phantom Imperial Army, and his eyes widened in shock.

Wan Dong glanced at him and asked lightly, "What, are you afraid?"

Hu Gui immediately looked embarrassed and said, "I'm not afraid, I have ten thousand troops under my command! It's just that the ghost forbidden army comes and goes without a trace and behaves strangely. How did the city lord know that the ghost forbidden army will appear tonight?"

North of the city?"

"Don't worry about it! Just do what I say!"

Hu Gui nodded heavily and said loudly, "Don't worry, City Lord, Hu Gui will do his best!"

Hu Gui also saw that Wandong was not the kind of soft-spoken master who could get things done with just a few words of flattery. If he wanted to be a reliable errand in front of him, he had to have something real. It seemed that,

It's impossible not to fight a tough battle.

"Okay! Go and greet Mr. Xue, he has already arrived!"

"Are we here?" Hu Gui was slightly startled. One of his officers and soldiers suddenly walked in quickly.

"For your information, Lord City Lord, Xue Dongfeng and his guards are walking towards here and should arrive soon."

When Hu Gui heard this, he immediately looked at Wandong with a horrified face. Hearing what this officer and soldier meant, Xue Dongfeng had not arrived at the city lord's palace yet, but Wandong was sitting here, but he already knew what kind of magical power this was? It was simply

It's like having a celestial eye.

Wandong smiled at Hu Gui and said, "Go!"

Hu Gui responded quickly, bowed and took three steps back, then turned around and walked quickly towards the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Huh? Master Xue, those seem to be Hu Gui's men!"

At this time, the city lord's palace is no longer comparable to before. Hu Gui has already ordered people to strictly guard the three floors inside and outside. There is a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps. It is very strict. A guard beside Xue Dongfeng

With sharp eyes, he leaned close to Xue Dongfeng's ear and whispered.

"Hu Gui's men?" Xue Dongfeng was also slightly surprised, obviously not understanding, when did Hu Gui and Xu Yaoting get together?

"Stop!" As soon as Xue Dongfeng and others approached, someone rushed out and shouted.
