long night fire

After looking at each other, Zhao Zhengqi nodded first:

"Okay, just do it."

The other noble councilors didn't bother with this issue any more.

This is because they have their own interests in East Street, West Street, and South Street. They are not the actual owners of certain warehouses, but also hotel owners, grain store owners, and major shareholders of nightclubs. They are all eager to solve those wilderness wanderers as soon as possible , so that the damage to one's own property is not so serious.

After conveying this decision and making it formally effective, Xu Liyan moved on to the second topic:

"Uncles, the riots should subside soon, we have to discuss how to deal with the aftermath.

"Besides North Street, I don't know how many civilians were killed and robbed. The next winter will be very difficult. I am willing to take the lead and donate some food to help them, so that they can survive until the situation improves. Well, medical supplies are also donated. Some, there must be a lot of injured people, and there may not be money to pay."

As soon as Xu Liyan finished speaking, Zhao Zhengqi shook his head like a rattle drum and said:

"We don't have any food left.

"Besides, in just one morning, how much food can be lost in the city? If they are more frugal, it won't be a problem to survive the winter."

What are you kidding, this is not your own "property", why do you want to help them?

"Yeah." Muritch echoed, "What does it matter if some civilians die? Anyway, we have enough slaves."

"That is, if you dare to make trouble, drive them out to be wanderers in the wilderness." Zhang Wenxin, another member of the noble family, followed up and expressed his opinion, "When the situation stabilizes, as long as we have food for sale here, and some people come to live in Wild Grass City, make up for it. manpower gap."

Hearing their objections, Xu Liyan raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, only to feel his head buzzing.

He barely maintained his demeanor, and analyzed it fiercely:

"We must consider that the families of the soldiers live outside of North Street. If they turn against us, we can only flee to the original city."

Zhao Zhengqi laughed and said:

"City Lord, don't worry, the family members of our private army are all in the manor."

But the city defense army is not... Xu Liyan only felt the veins on his forehead throbbing more and more.

Amidst the different voices of opposition from several other noble councilors, not only was his mind buzzing, but there also seemed to be an illusory voice shouting in his ears:

"Blow them up!

"Blow them up!"

Xu Liyan's eyes gradually became a little dazed. He propped his head up with one hand, reached into his pocket with the other, and took out a small black remote control.

"Blow them up!

"Blow them up!"

The devil's roar kept echoing in his ears, making his breathing gradually heavier.

At this time, the door of the noble chamber was opened.

A guard shouted inside:

"Chancellor, Mr. Odick needs to see you urgently!"

Jiang Baimian at the door had excellent eyesight, and at a glance, he found that Xu Liyan's eyes were wrong.

It was dazed and crazy.

"Quick!" She reminded Odick, immediately drew out her pistol, and fired a shot at the crystal chandelier above the long table in the noble chamber.

Shang Jianyao drew his gun and turned around, helping Jiang Baimian to guard his back.

The sound of bang and clatter sounded at the same time, and a large number of glass shards fell down.

The noble councilors present, except for Xu Liyan, were not too young and had experienced some wars and riots. They were very sensitive to gunshots and responded immediately.

Muritch, who spoke slowly, slid down and hid under the table. The fat and fat Zhao Zhengqi quickly jumped out of the seat, pulled his eldest son, and rushed to the corner...

Their bodyguards pulled out their guns one after another, found their positions, and aimed at the door.

The gunshot also startled Xu Liyan, who was at the top, and woke him up a little from the devil's roar, and then stopped his movements.

But this little sobriety was quickly submerged again, Xu Liyan glanced around with red eyes, and was about to press the remote control in his hand.

At this time, his eyelids suddenly became heavy, and he lost consciousness instantly, leaning back on the back of the chair, as if falling into a deep sleep.

Grasping the short gap created by Jiang Baimian, Odik jumped forward and rolled over one after another, closing the distance between himself and Xu Liyan enough to use "forced sleep"!

Then, he saw the thick black barrel.

This is "stretched" from the hands of the mechanical monk Jing Nian.

"The city lord was hypnotized by 'Father', and he wants to die with the people here!" Odick quickly shouted out his guess.

This sentence stopped the counterattack of the bodyguards in the room and the guards outside the room abruptly, and confronted Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao.

While continuing to aim at Odick, the mechanical monk Jing Nian stretched out his metal arm and forcibly tore off Xu Liyan's coat.

The condition of the city lord was immediately revealed.

He strapped several rings of dynamite around his waist, all high-performance products from the "Tangerine" company.

Once this explodes, not only the people in the noble chamber will not be spared, but even the next door and the next door will be destroyed.

Perhaps the only survivor on the scene was Zen Master Jingnian, a mechanical monk.

Chapter 58 bang

Murridge, who was hiding under the table, saw Xu Liyan's situation clearly, rushed out even while crawling, and rushed to the corner where Zhao Zhengqi was.

During this process, he shouted loudly:

"Dynamite!

"He strapped a ring of dynamite!"

Zhao Zhengqi and the others couldn't see the detailed situation on Xu Liyan's side because they were far away and blocked by the table, so they had to ask hurriedly and panickedly:

"What explosives?"

"what happened?"

"What the hell happened?"

Frankly speaking, if they didn't see that the situation seemed to be under control, they would definitely let the bodyguards open the way without hesitation, rush out of this room, and join their own guards.

"'Little Mushroom'! Xu Liyan has a 'Little Mushroom' tied around his body!" Muric quickly shared the situation.

That kind of explosive originated from the "Orange" company, and the model is H404. Because of its great power, it was nicknamed "Little Mushroom".

"Shit!" Francisco, another aristocratic member of the Red River Race, couldn't help cursing.

If a circle of "little mushrooms" explodes, it means that no one will be spared in the meeting hall and the corresponding outer area - abnormal people are not included in this rank.

After a short period of confusion, Zhao Zhengqi looked at Odick, Uncle Liu, and the "mysterious man" in a burqa, and asked loudly:

"what happened?

"Also, first, first, remove the explosives."

Such a conversation made his liver tremble a little.

"Come here, poor monk." The five metal fingers of the mechanical monk Jing Nian, under the control of the chip, slowly released the explosives tied to Xu Liyan's body with the highest precision.

He is a little annoyed now that he actually made the mistake of "dark under the lights":

Obviously, in order to come to Wild Grass City as a bodyguard, he installed some modules that are not usually used. Just now, he deliberately used this to check whether the nobles and their guards who participated in the meeting carried enough explosives, but who knew that the employer himself was ignored. .

Odick did not try to be brave, turned his attention to Zhao Zhengqi, and explained simply:

"Not long ago, the 'priest' of the 'anti-intellectual religion' attacked City Lord Xu and was stopped.

"But his purpose is not to assassinate, but to get closer, make eye contact, and 'hypnotize' City Lord Xu, so that he will make a suicide attack when he convenes all the nobles to discuss, and take away the entire top floor of Wild Grass City."

He was not sure about the latter half of the sentence until now.

Just to assassinate Xu Liyan, "Father" doesn't need to play so fancy and do a lot of "useless work". His real goal is very big and very difficult.

That is to kill all the nobles in Weed City!

You must know that Xu Liyan is guarded by the mechanical monk Jing Nian. Any method of "hypnosis" that wants to contact through normal channels may be destroyed by "precognition". The attempt is quite easy to be discovered, and when the time comes, even if you want to escape, you may not be able to escape.

At the same time, any party that Xu Liyan attended, no matter what form it was in, other people had to undergo strict inspections, and they could only bring light firepower such as pistols that could be hidden on the body.

Under various conditions, it is almost impossible to kill all the nobles in Wild Grass City at once.

There are still enough security measures here.

As for the purpose of this big goal, it is temporarily unknown.

"Namo Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi, so it's like this..." The mechanical monk Jing Nian whispered a Buddha's name.

He finally figured out the cause and effect and various details, and found the real source of the dangerous premonition—he thought there was a second round of assassination.

"Amazing!" Shang Jianyao didn't hesitate to praise himself.

If it wasn't for him holding the "Ice Moss" pistol and confronting the guards one by one, he would definitely not let his applause be absent.

Although Jiang Baimian didn't look back, he could imagine the look of admiration on his face.

I admire "Father" playing so big.

Zhao Zhengqi, Francisco and others barely figured out the truth of the matter, and they were relieved to ignore the inexplicable remarks made by Odick's subordinates.

When such an "advanced hunter" came to Wild Grass City, they more or less sent people to inquire about the corresponding situation. They were no strangers to Odick, and they cast their gazes over one after another, expressing their gratitude:

"Mr. Odick, right? Thanks to you, or we'd all be blown up."

"We will definitely prepare some thank-you gifts later on."

"Fuck, I have experienced countless storms and waves in my life, but today I almost capsized in the gutter. I am a dead ghost, and I don't even know who killed me. Mr. Odick, let's get closer, and when this matter is over, You must come to my manor as a guest."

"When the order in the city is restored, immediately arrest the believers of the 'Anti-Intellectualism' and burn them to death in the central square!"

While they were talking, the mechanical monk Jing Nian had already removed the H404 explosives from Xu Liyan's body, and grabbed it together with the black remote control.

He originally wanted to personally transfer these high-risk items to other places and keep them away from the meeting hall, but he looked at Xu Liyan and gave up this idea.

A qualified bodyguard should not be more than three meters away from the employer.

"Who took them out?" Jing Nian raised her arms and asked with an electronically synthesized voice.

Wild Grass City is located on the edge of the Monk Wasteland. Everyone here is no stranger to mechanical monks. At this time, they can roughly guess the identity of Jing Nian, but after looking at the string of explosives and the remote control, they all chose to remain silent. .

Obviously, no nobleman would lower his status to do this, and sending bodyguards will weaken the defense around them. As for calling the guards in, it is not in compliance with the rules, and it is easy to trigger unnecessary chain reactions—— Let other great nobles think that someone is going to take the opportunity to merge.

Besides, who knows if there are other remote controls in that pile of explosives, what if the "priest" and his accomplices are hiding in the city lord's mansion and press the switch when the time comes?

At that time, whoever holds the explosives will not even have ashes left!

Of course, it is also their consensus to remove dangerous items as soon as possible.

With similar thoughts, they looked at Odick again, hoping that he would let his men come down to do this.

Before they could speak, Shang Jianyao volunteered:

"I come!"

He was very interested in the bunch of "little mushrooms".

"Good!" "Have courage!" All the nobles present agreed unanimously, and signaled the guards to put down their weapons and stop confrontation.

Shang Jianyao walked quickly towards the mechanical monk Jing Nian, and stretched out his left hand to take the pile of things.

He then extended his right palm in a forward position for a handshake.

Jing Nian was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his right hand made of metal skeleton a little bit, and shook Shang Jianyao.

"Zen Master, I will listen to a song for you later, you will definitely like it." Shang Jianyao said enthusiastically.

If it wasn't for the seriousness of the situation, Jiang Baimian really wanted to raise his hands to cover his face.

The mechanical monk Jing Nian didn't know how to answer for a while, but fortunately, Zhao Zhengqi helped him out:

"Now you can wake up the city lord, and only he knows some details."

Odick had no objection, and nodded to Jing Nian.

The mechanical monk Jing Nian immediately grabbed Xu Liyan's shoulder and shook it.

Shang Jianyao was watching with great interest, but was unanimously asked to get out quickly because he was holding a dangerous object.

He had no choice but to move his steps, leaning closer to the door inch by inch.
