There is a commander in the family, deep well ice

It may anger the commander-in-chief, which will lead to the withdrawal of the most powerful force from Bermuda City.

However, nowadays, the awe of the city residents towards Bai Yu has gradually been replaced by anger. Coupled with the resentment caused by the lack of salt, the city people's emotions have further out of control.The situation in Bermuda City is precarious, and the first civil strife is imminent.

Of course, in response to the situation in Bermuda City, Bai Yu, Qin Qian and the others have also drawn up some preliminary plans these days - for the monopoly of salt and iron, a salt refining workshop will be developed by the seaside, and the flow of iron ore will also go through Shuai Mansion controls; Youjia's soldiers will be led by the Shuai Mansion's elite soldiers, and real-name registration will begin.

There is also a draft of the management system, but it is absolutely impossible to implement it in the near future.Generally speaking, Bermuda City belongs to a sense of "a thousand wastes waiting to be rebuilt".

"Concentrate on the construction of military workshops?" Ling Gu flipped through the draft and found the starting point.

"Well, that's the idea." Qin Qian poured tea for him, and continued: "The central area is rich in mineral resources, but the iron mine closest to Bermuda City is also a hundred miles away, and it has now been taken over by Ma. The people at home are in control, and they have sent scouts to explore the road first. After the iron ore is captured in the future, we plan to open a workshop near the iron ore, extract the iron and transport it back.”

"What about farming? I think that even the Gong family mostly buys rice from other cities. There are very few monks who buy rice, and the city residents must have a great demand for food."

"Well, before, it was true that merchants between the cities transported a lot of goods, and the prices were not equal. In the future, if we want to manage the system, we have to open up farmland to be self-sufficient, and it is also convenient for unified taxation." Qin Qian nodded.

Ling Gu rolled his eyes and smiled.He lay on the table, hooked his fingers to Qin Qian: "General Qin, what do you think of this..."

After hearing Ling Gu's countermeasures, Qin Qian had a strange expression on his face.Ling Gu looked worried, and said: "If there is anything wrong, you can just say it, don't worry about my feelings."

Qin Qian smiled, shook his head and said, "I'm just surprised, if you want to take care of it seriously, you can do it."

Ling Gu raised his eyebrows proudly and smiled, but immediately realized that something was wrong: "Why does it sound like I was unreliable before?"

Qin Qian laughed dryly: "Your domain, domain owner, was much bigger than Bermuda City back then. Relying on your own powerful monster power, you exposed the domain's form, and picked up everything you saw to raise it. In the most prosperous period, the monsters in the domain , cultivators, spirit beasts, etc. are no less than tens of millions. And there is no division of regions, no division of resources, regardless of conflicts..."

Qin Qian put his hands on his forehead, as if his head was hurting: "I only know now that you just didn't want to care about it at the beginning."

Ling Gu: "..."

——Does this count as taking the blame for my past self?

Ling Gu felt that he seemed to have seen another side of Fei Yang other than being strong and kind.

"Cough." Ling Gu coughed lightly, skipping the topic: "Since this method is feasible, let's do it this way. I'll go and tell Bai Yu, tell Meng Yu and them, and prepare everything."

"Okay, young master." Qin Qian smiled: "But since it was proposed by young master, then you have to worry about the follow-up matters."

Ling Gu: "..."

The two discussed this until the evening before giving up.

When Ling Gu came out of the room, he realized that it was snowing heavily outside again.Bai Yu was standing at the entrance of the mansion. Although the snow was heavy, there was no snow within one meter of him. The moment the snowflakes fell on the top of his hair, they disappeared.

Holding a fiery red baby in his arms, Bai Yu looked at Ling Gu with a smile: "Go back and eat."

Ling Gu's gaze was suddenly caught by the swaddle in Bai Yu's arms. He thought it was a newborn cub from the Shuai Mansion, and immediately ran over excitedly and curiously, grabbed Bai Yu's arm and carefully lifted off a piece of cloth on the swaddle, and then He saw a round egg lying where the baby's head should have been.

Ling Gu: "..."

"Hold it." Bai Yu stuffed the baby into Ling Gu's arms, but Ling Gu had no choice but to catch it.

Although Ling Gu has never had children, he likes children and hugs them a lot, so he understands his posture naturally.When he assumed the posture of holding the baby, a hot current surged in his heart inexplicably.

It's like, although he was aware that this egg was his child before, but now he is holding a swaddling baby in his hand, as if his heart is full, that sense of steadfastness and certainty flows through his whole body with the blood.

This is my child.

Ling Gu took a deep breath, suppressed the heat in his heart, and didn't say it out.He raised his head and smiled at Bai Yu: "Go back, I have something to tell you."

Back at the Commander's Mansion, Ling Gu didn't tell Bai Yu about the solution he came up with.He only said to Bai Yu: "Early the morning after tomorrow, I will go to the main gate of Shuai Mansion with you, and talk to those city residents. If you trust me, leave everything to me, just this one time, I promise."

"I said before, I believe in you." Bai Yu looked at Ling Gu very seriously: "So, I also hope that you can trust me. Believe that I will never hurt you and will protect you. I It belongs to you."

Ling Gu leaned over with a smile, kissed the corner of Bai Yu's lips, and said, "I believe in you. I will give you a gift on the wedding night."

Bai Yu blinked, looking forward to it.

However, no one expected that an accident would happen outside Shuai's mansion early the next morning.

It turned out that there were nearly 2000 people besieging the open space in front of the Shuai Mansion yesterday. If Meng Yu and Boyan hadn't been prepared, these people would have rushed into the Shuai Mansion directly.However, because of the heavy snow last night, these people couldn't stand the severe cold, so they only built a few big fires in front of the Shuai Mansion, leaving some people behind - beware of the Shuai Mansion building an enchantment, or fleeing.The rest went home first.

Early this morning, a cub was fond of playing with the snow, and heard that there was not much movement outside the wall, so he boldly climbed up the city wall in the form of a half-beast.This scene happened to be seen by the townspeople who gathered again. Someone called a wild beast, and then someone in the crowd got excited and gathered snow balls, stones, vegetable leaves and other things that were readily available. Hit the wall.

People have a herd mentality, especially such a group of people who don't have much sense and are rushing forward.

Fortunately, there were elite soldiers guarding it. The cub was only a little frightened, and changed back into a furball animal shape. It was picked up by the family trembling.

But this incident angered the elite soldiers, and the situation became more serious.

After Bai Yu and Ling Gu learned about the incident, they immediately went outside the commander's mansion.

76. Chapter [-]

The open space outside the Shuai's Mansion is like a huge square, but at this time it is narrow and crowded because of the crowd, even the streets leading to the Shuai's Mansion are crowded with people.

The heavy snow is still falling, and the sound of heavy snow "swirling" can be heard quietly in the open space where there are thousands of people.

Bai Yu and Ling Gu came out of the gate of the commander-in-chief's mansion, and Meng Yu who was on the side saw him. With his head tilted, four or five elite soldiers came over with a palm-thick long wooden stick, but in the blink of an eye, they built a Small high platform.

Ling Gu tugged at Bai Yu's sleeve, and the two walked up—Bai Yu was still holding the crimson swaddle in his hands.

The crowd became quieter, and it was unknown whether it was because of Bai Yu's prestige in Bermuda City, or because of his "unexpected" behavior of holding a baby.

Dazed for only a moment, the city residents are a flock of sheep who have been deceived into reason, but there are still wolves with ulterior motives among the flock.Immediately, someone shouted: "Bai Yu, you create a dark day, harm the family members of the city residents, and then win people's hearts, deceive the city people to work for you, scrape bones and cramps, fish and rob, compared with those wild beasts, you are far worse!" No less! Today you have to give us an explanation!"

The speaker was wearing the student uniform of Taiyuan, which surprised Ling Gu.Immediately Ling Gu searched in the crowd, and sure enough, at the front of the crowd, he saw many students from the Taiyuan.

The words of the students are very provocative. Most of the city residents really feel that they are oppressed and miserable people in their words. As long as the Shuaifu is subdued this time, they will usher in a more prosperous and comfortable life!

Ling Gu glanced at Boyan, Boyan nodded, moved a tall drum from somewhere, clenched his hands into fists, and struck hard.

"Boom-"

The dull drum sound was like a wet cloth towel, trembling against people's eardrums, and the crowd had to quiet down, covering their ears to avoid the trembling sound that seemed to break people's hearts.

After the crowd quieted down, Ling Gu circulated his spiritual power on the mouthpiece, allowing his voice to spread like a torrent of bells: "I also know the reason why you gathered here. Yes, the spiritual riots back then were indeed It was caused by Bai Yu crossing the catastrophe."

Before the words fell, the leading students suddenly buzzed like flies smelling fishy smell: "Everyone heard it! The commander you trust and worship day and night is the culprit of the Dark Day! Although it is not a wild beast , is better than a wild beast, after all, he is also a monster, before he became a monster, he lived by eating people!"

This explanation is obviously a lot of human beings' perception of monsters. It can't be said that it is wrong, it can only be said that they are generalizing.

Ling Gu didn't bother to explain.

He looked sideways at Wei Yun, and Wei Yun nodded—the first few people who agreed with him had already been followed by elite soldiers "one-on-one".When it's over, you can take them all.

After Ling Gu got the information, the corners of his mouth curled up: "What is your purpose for coming here?"

Sure enough, one of the leading Taiyuan students stood up. Even though the snow was falling, his face was blushing, as if his blood was boiling: "Bai Yu's dark day caused hundreds of thousands of deaths and injuries to the city residents, and his crime is punishable. But read For the sake of his guilty heart and the establishment of Bermuda City, we will not kill them all. We request that Bermuda City be divided into an area bounded by Hukanmen and Sanchamen, named "Taoyuan", and the commander-in-chief must not interfere with Taoyuan. Things. In addition, the Shuai Mansion will also compensate the victimized families in the past, as compensation of 5 yuan for the attack; in the following years, as long as Bermuda City exists, the Shuai Mansion will be responsible for the safety of Taoyuan!"

"Yes!" The huge benefits made those people red-eyed, and they yelled, as if the more powerful they were, the more benefits they could get at their fingertips.

People's hearts are not enough, it has been like this since ancient times.

Ling Gu sneered and raised his hand to signal the crowd to quiet down.

The crowd thought that he would agree to this condition, and their eyes stared at Ling Gu like wild wolves in the snow.

"Oh, thank you for being able to say it." Ling Gu sneered, his voice colder than Bingxue: "Leave these conditions to your own dreams."

"Bai Yu crossed the catastrophe back then, it was a natural thing, crossing the catastrophe caused the spiritual violence, and it was not what Bai Yu wanted. First, he didn't do it deliberately; second, he gave up his ascension and left to repel the wild beasts for you; third Then build a city, allowing you to rely on his prestige, and seek prosperity in this chaotic world of the central world. Today, [-]% of the people in Bermuda City live in the houses that Bai Yu built with spiritual power back then."

"You say that your enemy is Bai Yu? You come to besiege the commander's mansion, and even hurt a cub who has nothing to do with the world, which is just revenge? If that's the case, why don't I see you pick up the guns in your hands?" Vegetable leaves and stones, go to the Eastern Beast Kingdom to crusade? Why do you just avoid and be cowardly when encountering wild beasts bullying on the street, but dare not stand up?"

"Because you know that the Shuai Mansion will not harm you."

Many people were speechless because Ling Gu was right.They dared to surround the commander's mansion only because they knew that the city defense army had been protecting them and had never harmed them.So they took it for granted that this time the Shuai Mansion would also succumb to their "public opinion".

"However." Ling Gu Yang said: "Since you are all so dissatisfied with the Shuaifu, then I have a solution."

Ling Gu stretched out his hand and made two "pops".Then some elite soldiers lifted out dozens of heavy wooden boxes.The wooden boxes were lined up on the open space in front of Linggu, and then the lid was opened, and the golden color of brass flowed out brilliantly. Ten boxes were full of gold nuggets. It was like a gold and silver island in the heavy snow, attracting people's attention. .

"I'll give you a chance, from now on, for a whole day. I'll let the elite soldiers of the commander-in-chief's mansion tell the whole city that the spiritual power riot that year was caused by Bai Yu crossing the catastrophe. Those who can accept it, just be obedient Going home and preparing for the Chinese New Year, I don’t blame the past; but if you can’t accept this matter, then you can get two gold coins from the commander’s mansion, and leave Bermuda City with your family today. As for those ridiculous conditions before you still want to continue pestering you Yes, then the two pieces of gold are gone too. Think about it for yourself.” Ling Gu paused after speaking, and added: “By the way, if it’s afternoon, there are still no one who left when I came. , will also be expelled from the city.”

After Ling Gu finished speaking, he took Bai Yu's wrist and got off the wooden platform, and entered the gate of the commander's mansion with Bai Yu.

Wei Yun curled his lips into a smile. Ever since Qin Qian told him about Linggu's plan yesterday, the smile on Wei Yun's face has not faded.

"If there is someone who has thought about it, come to me to register the account name and get the gold nugget." Wei Yun waved his hand to have the high platform that Ling Gu and the others stepped on just now be set up as a wooden table, and then there was a man wrapped in a black cotton coat. The person sitting there - he is from the Minsheng Institute.

There are people from the Minsheng Institute, and those who want to say a name indiscriminately are naturally impossible.

At first, no one acted rashly, they didn't know whether Ling Gu's words were true or not.Near noon, the snow gradually stopped, and Bermuda City became active.What Ling Gu said in front of the commander's mansion was quickly spread throughout Bermuda City by the elite soldiers.

They didn't know who started it, but they said: "This is supposed to be the gold nugget that the Shuai Mansion compensated us, and we took it together, tens of thousands of people and their families, can the Shuai Mansion really drive us all out? "

The law does not blame the public. People who believe in this point have no worries.

The gold nuggets in the four areas of the Shuai Mansion were quickly divided up. When the registered roster was sent to the Shuai Mansion, Ling Gu was quite surprised—there were nearly 9 people. place, the one who cheated for more gold nuggets.So after statistics by account, there are more than 4 households.

Bermuda City is very large, with a population of over one million.Still, the numbers are staggering.

In order to distinguish these accounts, Ling Gu did not implement the action of deporting this group of people that afternoon.At night, the elite soldiers of the commander's mansion were not idle, they arrested those who had been eyeing for a long time, and did not hide their whereabouts.The person who received the gold nugget recognized that it was the person who incited them to riot. They thought that the riot ended with the arrest of these "leaders".After all... the law does not blame the public.

They were relieved, and they went home with gold nuggets and went to bed with peace of mind.However, early the next morning, some soldiers knocked on their door.Nearly 9 people were "invited" out of their homes, their hearts were packed by the soldiers, and even the tables and chairs were moved out, leaving no property behind.

Except for the steepest north gate, the east, west, and south gates are all wide open. The crowd was driven away by the soldiers. suspension bridge.At this moment, these people finally discovered——they were really expelled.No house came for nothing, no wall high against wild beasts, no garrison to protect them.There are only two gold pieces in my arms that may take years to earn, but so what?

The recovered people knelt on the ground. They took out the gold nuggets they got in the morning, held their heads high like offerings, and begged with tears, wanting to return to Bermuda City.However, it was too late.

Among these deported people, only a small part, they consciously packed their luggage and drove their horses and horses to leave Bermuda City.As soon as he left the city, he broke away from the crowd and left towards the distance. Soon they gathered together, and in the leading carriage, Ma Wanlong turned his head to look back at Bermuda City, showing a unwilling expression, and threw down the curtain heavily.

This is the Ma family's convoy, and the Wan family's family center of gravity is not in Bermuda City, so they did not hesitate to leave.The Ma family took advantage of the turmoil this time, and the whole family left Bermuda City and joined Wanlu.

"That damned Ling Gu!" Ma Wanlong complained impatiently as soon as he entered the door. You must know that if it was Bai Yu, he was absolutely sure of the success of this incident—or Bai Yu would be furious because of provocation. Run over these city residents; or simply ignore them and let the rumors ferment.

"Don't do that." Wan Lu threw away the clean copper dish, sighed contentedly, and said with a smile, "It's impossible to go back to Bermuda City now, so why not seek a new way out?"

"You mean..."

"You are lucky, there is a distinguished adult who wants to see you." Wan Lu grinned.

77. Chapter ７７

In the Commander's Mansion, Wei Yun reported the situation of the expulsion in the morning.

"If I had known this before, why bother?" Mu Ying snorted twice and said, "We didn't make the city wall and the river around the city, yet we have the nerve to propose the idea of ​​dividing up Bermuda City, hmph!"

"They were just bewitched by others." Ling Gu said.

"Little bone! You can't be soft-hearted!" Mu Ying immediately stared.

Ling Gu raised his hand to beg for mercy: "I'm just telling the truth, and I made people go out, and I won't swallow what I said. By the way, Wei Yun." Ling Gu turned to Wei Yun and asked, "Stop What did the people who lived there say?"

"A total of 73 people were captured in various parts of the city, 37 of whom were people who took money from others. According to investigations, they were all from the Ma family, but the Ma family members had already evacuated. All the salt shops of the Ma family in the city were also closed. All the salt stocks were dumped into the river around the city."

Ling Gu frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "These people registered in another list and were also expelled from the city. Let them report what they did at the gate of the city. As for the rest... I'm afraid they were completely brainwashed."

Wei Yun nodded, those people have completely believed that the Shuai Mansion is a complete evil, and Bermuda City under the control of the Shuai Mansion will become a purgatory.The arrest this time will not make them reflect, but will make them more hostile to the Shuaifu.

Ling Gu said: "Those people also make a list, and they will be imprisoned first. Ah, those Taiyuan students..."

"There are 12 students in the Taiyuan, all of whom are from Yuyueli," Wei Yun said.

Ling Gu was not too surprised, after all, it would be difficult for the Ma family to bribe the students of the Taiyuan.But he didn't expect that the Taiyuan recruited students under the name of Shuai's Mansion, but he didn't expect that there were students who were so hostile to Shuai's Mansion.

"Hey." Ling Gu sighed, then turned to Qin Qian and asked, "How are the You family and the Gong family planning?"

The old God Qin Qian is here, and it is clear that what Ling Gu wants him to do is very successful: "The Gong family contacted other scattered salt merchants in the city, and there is also a salt cooking workshop at the port that the Ma family did not have time to destroy, and now they are stepping up production It's no problem to get through this juncture; Youjia has already sent people outside the city and the iron mine. Boyan and Mengyu are now taking people to draw the line. Luzhu said that the wedding is three days later, and they should be able to catch up. return."

Ling Gu breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled: "That's good. Those people outside the city also ask the temple to take care of it. It's freezing cold, don't die, or it will be very difficult in the future."

"Understood." Qin Qian nodded.

"What are you going to do?" Bai Yu waited for them to finish talking before asking Ling Gu.Now that those city residents have been dealt with, there is no need to hide the rest from him.

Ling Gu smiled, indeed he did not hide Bai Yu's secrets, and told his plan again.Bai Yu was very surprised after hearing this, stared at Ling Gu for a long time, and said something similar to what Qin Qian said before: "So you know how to manage these things."

Ling Gu coughed lightly, looked up at the sky and said, "It's time for lunch."

The actions of the commander-in-chief can be described as bold and resolute. The citizens of Bermuda City and the envoys of various cities in the station were shocked.

Among the post stations, the largest city-states are the Eastern Beast Kingdom and the Luoshui Snow Country. Now that this happened, the envoys from other small cities were panicked and naturally began to gather.But on both sides of Beast Lan and Shi Luoxue, there are different opinions.

Shi Luoxue told the envoys: "Everyone is worried, but it's really unnecessary, isn't it? When you attached to Bermuda City, didn't you have the idea of ​​always offering tribute to seek asylum? Thinking that Bermuda City will always be a deterrent A powerful but docile lion? Its strength is obvious to all, and it will be a matter of time to establish a country. As for what kind of country it will become, what kind of rule it will have, and what policies it will implement for the city-states it protects, then I have no idea Got it."

Beast Lan told the envoys: "The current momentum of Bermuda City is very obvious. Sooner or later, it will annex you. It's just a change in form. As for what kind of policy they will implement, in fact, part of the decision-making power is in your hands. Isn't it?"

Beast Lan didn't say anything more to those people, he knew exactly who would come to him to find him.After sending off those envoys, another attendant came in and whispered Shi Luoxue's words in front of Beast Lan.

"Heh. A hypocritical woman." Beast Lan sneered and didn't pay much attention to it: "What about the two families?"

"Wanlu has a message saying that he wants to introduce Ma Wanlong to the prince."

Beast Lan laughed in a low voice: "They thought the commander-in-chief would let them go like this? Idiots. They messed up things and wanted to draw dirty water to me. Why keep such things?"

The attendant understood the meaning, and respectfully accepted the order in a low voice: "Yes."

The servant stepped back, and soon another servant came in, and respectfully said in front of Beast Lan, "Prince, someone is here."

As the attendant said, he moved away, revealing a person who appeared by the door at some time. The person was petite, wearing a red fur cloak, with his head lowered, only showing a sharp chin.

Beast Lan laughed lightly, raised her head slightly, and the attendant backed out knowingly, closing the door behind her.

"Come here." Beast Lan called softly.The person by the door raised his head, revealing a handsome face, it was Ling Zhaowen.

Ling Zhaowen showed a docile smile, untied the cloak and let it fall on the ground, his long hair was loose, and he was only wearing a thin robe inside, and even took off his shoes when he entered the door.He walked up to Beast Lan, and lay on Beast Lan's lap like an obedient pet.He raised his head and looked at Beast Lan with wet eyes.

Beast Lan touched Ling Zhaowen's face and said, "You did a good job this time. The influence of the Taiyuan students in Bermuda City is much greater than those idiots. Now that they are arrested, what does the Taiyuan say? ?”

Ling Zhaowen immediately flinched and lowered his head in a very pitiful look: "The god attendants of the temple went to the Taiyuan before me, and now the students are persuaded by the god attendants, and feel that those people are to blame."

Beast Lan narrowed his eyes for a moment, but the usual kind smile on his face did not change at all. He stroked Ling Zhaowen's hair with his big hand and said, "You did a good job. You are very obedient. I am very satisfied."

Ling Zhaowen immediately raised his head, his expression moved, he held Beast Lan's hand with both hands, and gently rubbed his face against it.

"The gift for Ling Gu, are you still giving it?"

Ling Zhaowen stopped and replied: "I will deliver it every three days, but every time it will be taken away by those elite soldiers or the girls who serve him. I think there are eight to nine times out of ten that it didn't reach him."

Beast Lan ran her hand along Ling Zhaowen's long hair, and said softly, "I have something here that you want to give to your brother. Give it to him with your own hands, understand?"

Ling Zhaowen raised his head and responded obediently: "Yes."

"I want him to keep this thing by his side, can you do it?" Beast Lan didn't lower his head, but lowered his eyelids to look at Ling Zhaowen, as if he was looking at an insignificant thing.

It was a kind of indifferent look.Not caring means you can give up at any time.

Ling Zhaowen nodded: "It can be done."

If he couldn't, what was he worth?

"So cute." Beast Lan chuckled, and pressed Ling Zhaowen's head like a reward. Ling Zhaowen lay on his lap obediently again, like a Persian cat, enjoying the owner's touch.

Two days later, it was the eve of Bai Yu and Ling Gu's wedding.

In the past two days, none of the thirteen city gates of Bermuda City had put down the suspension bridges. The tens of thousands of city residents who had been driven out gathered in front of the three city gates without leaving. The falling mountain rose again, but the suspension bridge remained high and the city gate was never opened.

In the past two days, there were frequent cries from the crowd outside the city gate.They dare not leave, because most of them have never left Bermuda City. They know that the outside world is very dangerous. They have heard of the ferocity of wild beasts, the cruelty of people from other worlds, and the strange but powerful weapons from other worlds. .The world is full of enemies, where can they go?

For two days they endured cold and hunger, and the fear that wild animals might attack at any time.Then they began to remember the kindness of the city, the warmth of the quilt in the city, and the bravery of the city defense army...

God, what kind of ghosts were they fascinated by at that time!

When despair and remorse hung over these people's heads for a long time, two days later, a group of figures appeared on the tower of Baihumen.

The crowd, who were familiar with the changing time of the city defense guards by heart, started to commotion. They stood up one after another, and the family supported each other and squeezed towards the river around the city.This is a ray of light, and they are desperate to catch it!

Above the city tower were Ling Gu, Bai Yu and others.

Today, the sky that has been quiet for two days has snowflakes again, and Ling Gu is wrapped in an animal skin cloak, holding his swaddling baby in his arms.He looked at the crowd gathered outside the moat and observed their actions.

Finally, someone in the crowd suddenly knelt down with a "plop", and then the others also woke up, and everyone quickly knelt down.They howled loudly, expressing their regrets, begging Ling Gu and Bai Yu to accept them again.

They finally understand that this is a troubled world.

Above the city tower, Ling Gu let out a sigh of relief—he had originally thought of two possibilities, these people would either be very remorseful, or they would hate even more.Fortunately not the latter.

"It sounds like everyone still wants to be a citizen of Bermuda City?" Ling Gu gathered his spiritual power at the mouthpiece, and his voice easily pierced through the cold wind and heavy snow, hitting the ears of everyone outside the moat.At the same time, on the other two city gates, Mu Ying and Qin Qian also repeated what Ling Gu said.

"Yes!" Hearing Ling Gu's question, the crowd scrambled to express their opinions, fearing that they would be expelled forever if they fell behind.

Ling Gu smiled, glanced at the excited crowd, and said: "The Shuaifu never thought of exterminating any city citizen. Knowing the mistakes can be corrected, and there is nothing good about it. Everyone knows the mistakes, and I am naturally willing to give everyone a chance of."

The crowd froze for a moment, as if they couldn't believe they had heard such good news, then the crowd erupted, cheered, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed their thanks in tears.

78. Chapter [-]

After the crowd calmed down a bit, Ling Gu announced his decision.

"Since everyone knows their mistakes, they must also understand a truth. Those who make mistakes will always have to pay for their words and deeds. If you are sent back to the city directly, then the prestige and face of the commander-in-chief will be reduced to a joke. Therefore, I There is a solution here, the same sentence, if you agree, stay, if you disagree, leave." After Ling Gu finished speaking, he stopped and waited for a while to see that no one had any objections before continuing to speak.

"Bermu City is not what it used to be today, and it will become more prosperous and powerful in the future. A strong city and country must have a unified leader. Now, Bermuda City is in a state of disunity, and I am deeply disturbed. Therefore, the commander-in-chief decided to A hundred miles outside the city of Bermuda is designated as an outer city."

"The outer city is about to undergo massive construction, and after completion, city residents within a designated area will move in. And you...do you all choose to stay?"

After Ling Gu asked, the answer was beyond doubt. After two days of camping in the wild, these people didn't want to leave even a step away.The crowd scrambled to answer, expressing their willingness to stay.

Ling Gu smiled: "Very good! Those who remain, unless they are old, weak, sick, or disabled, must participate in the construction of the outer city. The list is registered, and they are not allowed to enter the inner city for three years, and they will live in temporary adobe houses. The salary will be issued by the Shuaifu , but you will not get the treatment enjoyed by the rest of the city.”

"If the performance is good, the house can be rented in the outer city after five years, and the house can be purchased after ten years, and the special list will be eliminated. Do you have any objections?"

Dissent, who dares to have?Besides, such conditions are not difficult to accept. It is not for nothing, and there is no need to sleep in the open. Although it is an outer city, it is always in Bermuda, right?

The crowd thanked them repeatedly and felt that they were saved.

Ling Gu's words were spread out at the three city gates, and at the same time the divine attendant posted a notice in the city, and read out the resolution to the illiterate people.

[A hundred miles outside the city, there is an outer city.Mainly military defense, recruit a large number of young and strong aspirants to participate in the construction work after a year, and the wages will be settled every day. Those who are outstanding can be recommended to join the army.

Recruitment: Over 15 years old, regardless of race and cultivation level, you can join the army after passing the assessment.

The Minsheng Institute will re-enter the information of the urban residents, and the urban residents are requested to cooperate.

The follow-up construction and planning of the outer city will be explained in detail in the future. 】

At the end of the notice, it was covered with the freshly baked red square seal of the Shuai Mansion, using the tiger-stripe logo of the Shuai Mansion.

Leaving aside what kind of turmoil this announcement caused in the city, on the gate of the White Tiger City, after Ling Gu finished speaking, a group of elite soldiers appeared, using spiritual techniques, and in a short while, a row of adobe houses were built along the moat , Another elite soldier brought a lot of wooden trunks, dropped axes and other tools, and let those people build doors and windows by themselves.

With a house to shelter from the wind and cold, the crowd rushed to snatch it. Fortunately, there were elite soldiers intimidating them, and there was no fist or kick.

Watching the elite soldiers arrange the crowd, Ling Gu finally let out a sigh of relief—fortunately, nothing went wrong.

"Go back." Bai Yu stretched out his hand to hold Ling Gu's hand, frowned slightly, and said, "When you come out in the future, just put some warm stones in the swaddle."

Ling Gu smiled and nodded: "Okay."

Egg:"……"

The two went down the tower, and the city residents who were watching the excitement around them backed away slightly. They looked at Bai Yu and Ling Gu with fear in their eyes.

Ling Gu felt helpless, while this vigorous and resolute action was highly efficient, it was bound to leave some negative effects.However, compared to the attitude of the city residents towards the "free bodyguards" of the commander-in-chief, Ling Gu would rather they be in awe.

"elder brother."

When Ling Gu was about to get into the carriage, he saw a young man squeezed out of the crowd.It was Ling Zhaowen.

Ling Gu suddenly remembered the last time he saw Ling Zhaowen, the confession Ling Zhaowen told him and the oil paper bag that Bai Yu threw away. Although he still didn't like Ling Zhaowen very much, he stopped at this time , wait for him to come.

Ling Zhaowen ran to a position two steps away from Ling Gu, and suddenly stopped. He took a careful look at Bai Yu, then shrank his shoulders, very afraid of Bai Yu's appearance.But he still smiled at Ling Gu and said, "My brother is getting married."

Ling Gu nodded, everyone in Bermuda City knew about it.

Ling Zhaowen took out a small cloth bag from his bosom, held it in his hands but did not pass it to Ling Gu.He raised his head to look at Ling Gu, but he didn't dare to look into Ling Gu's eyes, he wandered and finally landed on his own toes, only looked up at Ling Gu from time to time.

"I... originally wanted to give my brother a gift, but I think there are so many good things in the handsome mansion, and I don't think my brother will need what I gave." When Ling Zhaowen said this, he seemed to laugh a little embarrassedly: "I have already worked as a doctor in a medical clinic, and I just realized that it is difficult to make money, and I can't afford anything for my brother."

"However, I found this at home. I don't know if my brother still remembers it." Ling Zhaowen said, and quickly opened the cloth bag in his hand, revealing the contents inside.

It was a small wooden sign, in the shape of a pendant. The word Ling was engraved on the wooden sign. The engraving was deep, but it had been worn down to a shallow layer, and it could be seen that it was old.

Ling Gu had no memory of the original owner, so naturally he had no memory of this thing, so he just looked up at Ling Zhaowen, waiting for him to speak.

Seeing that Ling Gu didn't remember, Ling Zhaowen's face became a little more embarrassed, but then his expression became lonely again, and his voice became a little softer: "This is left by my parents. My brother used to carry it with me all the time, but once... It was snatched by me. This is the only thing left by my parents
