Chapter 46 Situation
There are two rows of chairs on both sides of the main hall, and dozens of wooden boxes filled with gold bricks are stacked on the open space in the center.

After everyone stepped into the hall, the door of the hall automatically closed tightly without wind.

Nie Yangze's figure flashed, and he came to the crowd from above the main seat, and no one could see his movements clearly.

"Now there are two choices before you. One is to collect the reward and go out without looking back. The second is to stay in my city lord's mansion and join my private army after receiving the reward."

As soon as Nie Yangze finished speaking, many martial artists were ready to pat their chests and speak, most of them came here to enter the City Lord's Mansion.

"Once you choose to enter my City Lord's Mansion, your life will no longer be your own from now on. You must think carefully."

Nie Yangze's words made many people hesitate.

After hesitating for a while, Shi Lan made a decision. If he didn't enter the tiger's lair, he would win the tiger's cubs. Now entering the City Lord's Mansion may be the only way to break the deadlock.

"I don't force it." Nie Yangze said flatly.

"I would like to enter the City Lord's Mansion." The man in black robe who made the deepest fist mark stepped forward and said.

Nie Yangze nodded and raised his hand to signal, "Sit down."

Several warriors looked at each other and stepped forward together, "I want to collect the reward and leave."

Nie Yangze raised his hand, but without speaking, the door of the main hall opened again.

Several people stepped forward, regardless of the depth of the fist marks left earlier, they only took a hundred gold, and then left.

These few people took the lead, and several others stepped forward to receive the bounty and left the hall.

Twenty-six people, and in the end only eighteen people remained.

"The remaining ones are all willing to join my private army, right?" Nie Yangze glanced at everyone and asked.

Eighteen people nodded together.

"Then take your seat." Nie Yangze returned to the main seat, and the door of the main hall was closed tightly again.

"You all must have heard of the disaster of monsters."

Only a few of the [-] people showed doubts on their faces, and most of them nodded their heads. They all heard some rumors.

"What you are going to join today is not my private army, but the demon-suppressing army, that is, those people in black armor that you saw earlier."

Hearing this, most people looked puzzled, apparently they had never heard of the name of the Demon Suppressing Army.

"Listen carefully to what I'm going to say next." Nie Yangze stood up and said:

"You can bring your family members or friends to the City Lord's Mansion for resettlement. There are only two places for each person. I will ensure that your relatives arrive safely under the protection of the Saint Martial Immortal Sect."

Hearing Nie Yangze's words, everyone's complexion changed slightly, and they had a bad premonition, and they all asked each other.

"My lord, can you tell us in detail what this means?"

"Has the calamity of monsters really spread to Double Moon City?"

"The sudden ban on the city yesterday, is it related to this?"

……

Shi Lan only felt his heart tense. Hearing what Nie Yangze said, there is a high probability that Shuangyue City cannot be kept. The situation around here is really not optimistic.

Coupled with what Nie Yangze said earlier, the meaning is already obvious, take your own life in exchange for the safety of your family and dependents.

"Please be quiet, everyone." Nie Yangze said lightly, his voice was not loud, but he suppressed all the words of the others.

"The specific joints will naturally be explained to you later. The most urgent task now is to pick up your family members."

"City Master, I have a question, and I hope you can clarify it." The black-robed man who was the first to be seated stood up and asked with a bow.

"Say."

"Two places, can you be more lenient?"

Nie Yangze shook his head, "There are only two quotas for each person, not many, not many."

The man in black robe sat back on the chair with a bitter expression on his face.

Shi Lan had been observing the reactions of the other people just now. When Nie Yangze spoke just now, the man's expression did not change at all. Obviously, neither the disaster of monsters nor the demon suppressing army had surprised him.

Now that there are only two places, the man's expression changed.

"Are you all locals from Shuangyue City?" Nie Yangze asked.

Most of the eighteen people shook their heads.

"If the family members are within a thousand miles of Shuangyue City, I will send someone to pick them up immediately, and they will arrive in a day. If they are thousands of miles away, I will handle it according to the situation. As for everyone, except for the local people of Shuangyue City, the rest will stay here for now. In the city lord's mansion."

Hearing this, everyone's heart turned cold, this was to prevent the news from leaking.

"Now, everyone can collect the bounty." Nie Yangze raised his hand and said.

The local fighters in Double Moon City, including Shi Lan, immediately got up and walked towards the gate of the main hall, but none of them went to collect the reward.

The pile of gold bricks glowing with golden light in the center of the hall is no different from earth and rocks in the eyes of everyone at this moment.

A team of demon suppressing soldiers had already been waiting at the gate of the main hall.

"You should know what you can say and what you can't say." Nie Yangze's words slowly floated out from the hall.

All the way out of the City Lord's Mansion, Shi Lan was followed by two demon-suppressing soldiers, inseparable. All warriors who left the City Lord's Mansion were treated the same.

……

Shi Lan went all the way back to the hospital.

Seeing the two demon-suppressing soldiers behind Shi Lan, Du Baisheng's face changed slightly, he opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything.

"Brother Shi Lan, are you leaving?" Du Yue'er asked with a puzzled expression as she saw two demon-suppressing soldiers lift Shi Feng up on a stretcher and walked out the door.

Shi Lan shook her head, "I won't leave Double Moon City, we should meet again soon."

Except for Shi Feng, there is only one quota for the two of them. It is not appropriate for Shi Lan to take anyone away now, and now she has vague guesses about what the two soldiers did when they came to the door before.

"Be careful." Du Baisheng's doubts turned into an exhortation.

Shi Lan nodded, "I understand."

Watching Shi Lan's back disappear into the street, Du Baisheng patted Du Yue'er's head, with unresolved worry in his eyes.

……

Shi Lan returned to the City Lord's Mansion. Seeing that Shi Lan brought back a wounded person, the people in the City Lord's Mansion quickly arranged a comfortable room and provided two maids to take care of it.

After arranging Shi Feng properly, Shi Lan followed a demon suppressing sergeant to a martial arts arena.

The martial arts arena is not big, and there is a team of demon suppressing army standing there, as well as those warriors who were previously selected.

The demon sergeant was wearing a mask, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

Shi Lan walked near those warriors, and the expressions of these warriors were not very good-looking, and some warriors from Shuangyue City even had faint redness in their eyes.

After waiting for a short while, all the eighteen warriors left earlier arrived.

A figure came from outside the martial arts arena. This person was wearing a black armor similar to that of an ordinary demon suppressing sergeant, but it was slightly different. There were some bloody lines on the armor, exuding a bloody smell.
