Chapter 274 The longest day in Xumi City
Chapter 274 The Longest Day in Xumi City ()
The second day after Wang Lei arrived in Xumi City, it was just an ordinary day in the year for the time being. It did not involve any holidays, nor was it the anniversary of some celebrities.
Vendors selling fruits, vegetables and meat in Xumi City get up before dawn to take stock of their goods as usual, because when it gets dark, the first batch of people and shops rushing to the morning market will arrive.
However, what is different from the past is that these shops found that as dawn approached today, there were many more law enforcement officers on the street. They were not guards from the Thirty-man Group, but disciplinary officers who specifically targeted criminals and scholars.
Generally speaking, disciplinary officials rarely care about the affairs of the lower class people. Just like law enforcement officers in provincial units will not go to patrol the lower class villages and towns on a large scale if there is no big problem. This was supposed to be the job of the thirty-man group.
However, these shop owners just inquired casually and learned about it from others.
The boss's sister, a classmate who claimed to be the daughter of the seventh aunt, heard from her husband, who was a disciplinary officer, that a big shot came to Xumi, and he came with bad intentions. The two sides were at war with each other.
When these shop owners heard this, they said that it was repayable. Except for Natana, Teyvat has been fighting every day, and other countries have been peaceful on the surface for a long time (ordinary people in Sumeru don't know about the Inazuma Civil War). Even though the Gilded Brigades on the other side of the desert were killing each other and bleeding like rivers, I have never heard of Sumeru City raising its response level to war.
And as soon as you hear about war, you know that once it starts, the people at the bottom will not have a good life. Regardless of victory or defeat, the people will suffer.
Several small businessmen with flexible minds analyzed it and said that although they were uneducated, they lived under the Order (physical location) and could still predict some things under the influence of their ears and eyes. He decisively came to the conclusion that if a war started, supplies would inevitably increase, and if he sold anything at the original price today, he would lose money.
So when the people who were rushing to the morning market came to the morning market to buy some fresh vegetables and meat as usual, they found that the prices of ingredients in many stores had increased tenfold, and in some cases the price had increased more than twentyfold.
Anyway, there is no formal price bureau in Xumi. If the war news is wrong, it will be adjusted back when the time comes, and it will be a loss of one day's profit. But if there really is a war, then he can make a lot of money. These businessmen's abacus is really ticking.
Moreover, those stores that kept their original prices saw that their colleagues had increased their prices. Compared with the news they heard early in the morning, they immediately reacted. These grandsons have inside information, otherwise they would not dare to raise prices so decisively, and they must keep up. So within a few minutes, the prices in their store also skyrocketed. Only a few shops with still conscience or relatively straightforward ideas have not increased.
As a result, except for the first few citizens who came to the market and bought the same ingredients as usual, the people in the back were dumbfounded when they saw the ingredients being raised at an auction price.
If one or two companies did this, the people would probably unite to criticize the profiteers, but if shops on the whole street do this, it proves that something big has happened.
Moreover, those who usually get up early to buy groceries are middle-aged and elderly people. They have no other abilities, except for the skills of "inquiring about information" and spreading gossip. Not long after, news spread from the morning market that Sumi and Inazuma were about to go to war.
Wait until the sun rises and young people get up to prepare for work and study. Suddenly I found that all the talk in the streets and alleys was about war.
Immediately afterwards, the confused scholars hurriedly went to the Void Terminal to check for relevant information, but found nothing. But three people become tigers, so these people who know nothing can only ask people they know, and after learning about it, they are also involved in the circle of public opinion.
Not long after, Wang Lei's appearance at Xumi Puspa Cafe yesterday was dug up by the public, and a recent photo of Wang Lei began to circulate on the Void Terminal network for some reason. It was also printed out.
And it’s not like there are no Inazuma people in Xumi. They are basically businessmen. Due to time issues, they didn’t know that Inazuma had sent a fleet to Xumi. But it was impossible for these people not to recognize Wang Lei's face, which directly confirmed that Wang Lei was in Xumi.
By the way, these people also learned about the combat power of Wang Lei [Big Boss] from their Xumi friends. Basically, he can open the sea with a wave of his hand, sink an island with one punch, and can easily attack with a knife. Cutting open mountains, he is the first person under the God of Thunder.
These friends of the Daozhu merchants did not fully believe in Wang Lei's combat prowess, but they did have the impression that Wang Lei's combat prowess was outstanding, and it was not a problem for one man to form an army.
However, after word of mouth spread, the description of Wang Lei became more and more outrageous. By close to noon, Wang Lei had become a divine messenger descended from Sky Island in the eyes of the people of Sumeru, and all the seven gods were shorter than him.
Immediately afterwards, a piece of solid news broke the atmosphere of public discussion about Wang Lei's combat power. Conclusive news came from the port of Ormos that the Sumeru maritime force had discovered Inazuma's fleet.
There are a total of fifteen giant steel warships, each of which is ten times larger than Xumi's largest warship. When Xumi's warship encounters them, it is like a rabbit meeting a saber-toothed tiger. He didn't even dare to say hello, so he retreated in a hurry, and then rushed to Xumi City as quickly as possible to report the news.
The Port of Ormos is now in a mess. Even thinking about it, I know that Inazuma's fleet is not here for sightseeing, and if it wants to land, it must choose Port of Ormos.
So all the capable people in Port Omos fled with their families to Xumi City. All the people in Xumi City who had relatives in Port Ormos were seen in the morning.
Now the gossip that was still suspicious suddenly turned into reality. Now everyone was panicked. The war was real, and Wang Lei was in Xumi City. Are you sure this place is safer than Port Olmos?
When people feel that their immediate interests or even their lives are threatened, their ability to act is instantly exhausted.
Everyone mobilized their connections and wanted to know why Inazuma had to fight Xumi. Also, what on earth did Wang Lei come to Xumi City for?
What happened in Xumi City in the morning was seen by several pairs of eyes. In an unmanned pavilion in the Order House, Elhaysen, Seno, and Tinari gathered together.
At this time, Nacida, Ying, Paimon, and Collet were still resting at the Elhaysen house. After all, they all stayed up late last night. The adults and Ying could still maintain their condition, but Paimon and Collet couldn't bear it at all. .
Since there was no mission for them in the early stage of the plan, Elhaysen, Seno, and Tinari asked them to rest first.
At this time, the three "culprits" who caused panic among the people of Xumi City were here to compare the progress of each other's plans.
The activity of the Disciplinary Officer that initially caused tension in the morning was naturally the work of Sano. He still looked cold and said directly.
"My mission went extremely smoothly. After leaving Elhaysen's house, I immediately went to the Order House. Without hesitation, Azar approved my transfer back to the discipline officer to control the defense of the people's living area in Xumi City. The reason I used was Wang Lei is too strong, so Xumi City must bring back all the experts so that he can have some room to counterattack if he turns against him later. "
Everyone expected the success of Sano. When Azar passed by Xumi Puspa Cafe, he was obviously satisfied with Sano's behavior in protecting himself, and his trust level was greatly increased.
Moreover, Azar himself is not familiar with fighting. At this time, he does not believe in the judgment of Seno, who is a gale discipline officer. Who else can he trust? You must know that the main force of the thirty-man group is now lying in the hospital because of blocking Wang Lei, and there is no one available at all.
So Azar simply waved his hand and handed over all the defense of Sumeru City to Seno except the Jiaolingyuan and Jingshan Palace. At the same time, he promised that he would call in other helpers to defend against Inazuma's attack.
So Sai Nuo handed over the defense of Xumi City to the discipline officer in a fair and honest manner, and the thirty-man group was now regarded as a co-police at best. Even a blind person can see that there is big trouble in Sumeru now.
After Seno finished speaking, it was Tinari who spoke up. The so-called seventh aunt's daughter's classmate's sister's husband was a disciplinary officer. It was Tinari's handiwork.
The ranger often works as a hunter and is a supplier to those shops. It is trivial to arrange for someone to reveal some information. Moreover, this is true news. The upper echelons of the Order also know that the news of the war cannot be kept secret for long, and they will not be found out if they are found out. Not afraid.
I saw Tinari’s ears straight up, listening to what was going on around him, and he said cautiously
"Our judgment on those businessmen was very successful. Lord Xiaocao Shen was right, businessmen will do anything for enough benefits. I only provided some limited information, and they started to drive up prices. This greatly increased The public feels uneasy about the situation. After this incident, I will find a way to make suggestions to the Ecclesiastical Council and the price control regulations must be improved.”
The other two people nodded. Today, the two of them knew how much the psychological impact of price hikes had on people's psychology. This leads to the fact that even if someone wants to calm down and analyze the situation, the panicked people around him will force him to give up thinking and fall into extreme anxiety.
After Tinari finished speaking, Elhaysen also synchronized his own progress. After all, it was Elhaysen who guided public opinion and fanned the flames later.
"I legally circulated Wang Lei's photos. Azar and I told him that in order to prevent Wang Lei from wandering around on a whim and students accidentally bumping into him, it would be best to reveal his identity as a political figure from another country. To avoid unnecessary trouble or fights with Wang Lei. excuse.
As a result, Azar agreed instantly. Now I really wonder how this person became a great sage. Did he really think he could hide the news of the coming war from the people? "
Xeno was able to answer Elhaysen's question. He knew the urinary nature of the sages and said directly.
"It's not that he thinks he can conceal the news of the war. It's that he doesn't care at all that the people at the bottom know that the war is coming. In his opinion, as long as the Thirty Men are still in control, the discipline officials are still under control. His dominance is unbreakable."
Erhaisen could only shake his head when he heard Seno's answer and commented, "It's so stupid. Forget it, it's okay that Azar doesn't care about the wishes of the people. At least it makes our actions easier. I found a few that I usually like. To be honest, I can remember that I try to stay away from them so as not to disturb my ears, but now I have to take advantage of them.
I just chatted a few words about Wang Lei with other clerks around them, and they automatically went to learn other information and then it spread like a virus.
The content in the book "The Crowd: A Study of Popular Psychology" is still conservative. Now everyone in Xumi City feels like they are being controlled by an invisible hand, and everyone has lost the ability to judge themselves.
But what happened to the Ormos Port people's group fleeing to Xumi City? Did you do it? I was originally prepared to use other means to detonate public opinion. "
Facing Elhaysen's question, Tinari and Senor both shook their heads. They originally thought that this was also Alhaysen's handiwork.
The three of them fell silent immediately. If the residents of Port of Ormos were not forced to flee, it would prove that there was a third party operating behind them. Otherwise, if the residents of Port of Ormos had not fled sooner or later, why would they have done so? It was such a coincidence that they all escaped at this time.
After a moment of silence, Tinari looked unsure and suggested a possibility.
"You tell me, could this be Wang Lei's handiwork? He found someone to incite panic in the Port of Olmos and deliberately caused a large number of people to flee. In order to make the matter bigger, because the bigger the matter is, the easier it will be for him to force Azar Release Lord Little Grass God, and he didn’t know our plan, so he just happened to happen.”
Elhaysen and Seno nodded after hearing this. The possibility raised by Tinari was quite high. It's just that based on the information provided by Lord Xiaocao Shen last night, she and Wang Lei's original plan did not include letting the people of Sumeru escape their homes.
And it's not that easy to get people to abandon their property and flee. After all, Inazuma's fleet has not really reached offshore yet. The people have no comparison and have no idea how big the gap between the two sides is. It's impossible to make people give up their homeland just by relying on a few unsubstantiated words.
However, the three of them soon ran out of time to discuss this issue, because Sainuo suddenly received an urgent contact from the discipline officer below. Those eager students from the Jiaolingyuan led a large number of people to surround the guild hall where Wang Lei was, and were now protesting loudly against Inazuma's undeclared war.
At this time, the scene turned to Wang Lei. Wang Lei didn't sleep for long after his secret meeting with two beautiful Fool Executives last night. As soon as he got up in the morning, Wang Lei called Setale over and tossed her every half hour.
The so-called torment is naturally to ask her to go to the Teaching Academy to confirm when she can see the Grass God today. Although every time she comes back, she can only get "The Grass God is not ready yet. We will notify you when we are ready. Sir Wang Lei, please be patient." "This type of official rhetoric.
But Wang Lei still happily asked Setale to urge her, and his tone of voice became more and more serious, and his behavior was extremely aggressive.
Then, before noon arrived, Wang Lei heard protests outside that were almost breaking through the sky. They were all protesting against the war. He clamored that if Inazuma wanted to fight, she should follow Nata's example and fight with herself, and don't come to Huo Huo Xumi and the like.
Wang Lei was also confused about this scene, but looking at Setale's face that was about to cry, he could probably confirm that this was not the work of the Order Council, or that the great sage's assistant was really unaware.
So Wang Lei thought of the lady and the servant who had a pleasant chat with him yesterday, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was their handiwork. This must be an assist from them to make the matter bigger.
After thinking about it clearly, Wang Lei said that it was time to perform again.
Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sun outside the guild hall, and thunder continued. The instinctive fear of thunder and lightning from living things made people in Xumi feel bursts of chest tightness and shortness of breath.
Then, a bolt of lightning struck in front of the deserted courtyard, frightening the rioting students of the Imperial Academy back more than a dozen steps, and squeezed in with the ordinary people behind them until their chests were almost touching their backs.
At this time, as long as there is another big scare, the crowd will boil, and if one person fails to stand and falls down, a large stampede will occur.
Fortunately, Wang Lei was merciful. After the thunder, a golden light flashed. Wang Lei was bathed in the purple light of the lightning, floating quietly in the air, looking down at the teachers, students and people who were making trouble below, and said coldly:
"Keep calling. Why don't you call? You, the great sage of Xumi, are too incompetent. Where are you now, and you send people from the bottom to trouble me? I came to see the grass god to decide whether to start a war directly. I'm not here to listen to your protest! Do you believe that if I tell any other member of the Seven Nations about the reason for the war, they will say that you deserve to be beaten!"
Wang Lei's pressure was one that even the holders of the Eye of God would find difficult to resist. There were only a few people who came here to protest who had the Eye of God. Naturally, he could only be reprimanded unilaterally by Wang Lei.
However, what surprised Wang Lei was that after a period of silence, an ordinary citizen at the back of the team seemed to have mustered up the courage to withstand the pressure and shouted:
"How do we know what you are saying is true! We only know that there is no declaration of war at all, and your Inazuma fleet is about to arrive in the waters of the Port of Ormos. And you have a huge reason, and you should not despise it. You are simply a barbarian who wants to fight without declaring the safety of ordinary people!”
When Wang Lei heard this, he said that there are still brave men in Xumi, but after scanning the ether, he found that the person who spoke was most likely a fool and spies hiding among the people. Because his physical fitness is even better than that of ordinary Eye of God holders, and he has obvious traces of drug modification.
Wang Lei also knew that many spies from Hearth House would lurk among the local people and live for a long time. Without scanning carefully, there is no difference between the spy and ordinary villager A.
Now Wang Lei was even more sure that the fools controlled by the servant were giving him assists. He directly used telekinesis to lift up the speaker, pulled him in front of him and said
"You are very courageous. I give you the right to look at me equally. But I don't admit it when you accuse me of ignoring the safety of ordinary people. The reason why you are still protesting here is because of my kindness. I can directly break into Xumi. . But I just thought about you ordinary people, so I felt a little compassion and wanted to talk to the Grass God before everything was irreversible.
It's a pity that your great sage hasn't let me see the Grass God yet.
Gods talk to gods, and people talk to each other. Seeing that you don’t understand the things of gods, I can forgive you people for your nonsense this time. I just said, I really want peace and let the Grass God come out and talk to me face to face. I even agreed to communicate face-to-face with the Grass God under your supervision. Therefore, the objects of your protest are the Teaching Council and the great sages.
Of course, if you can't do it, just wash up and go home to sleep. Maybe when you wake up, things have been resolved and you have survived.
However, if you regard my kindness as weakness, I don't mind making you regret today's choice in your next life. "
After saying that, a bolt of thunder struck diagonally from the thunder clouds in the sky and struck a high slope far away from Xumi City.
The next second, there was a loud noise. The entire high slope exploded like popcorn, turning into several petals, all of which were burnt black. Obviously, no living thing can survive this kind of current.
After doing all this, Wang Lei threw this fool who pretended to be a civilian to the ground.
Because it was so real, he was really scared to death at this time, but no one would laugh at him. Because if those protesting were asked to check their pants now, many people at the scene would probably wet their pants. There's a bit of odor in the air.
This directly disgusted Wang Lei, so he quietly used Void Manzang to imitate Yu Duchen, and finally gave a group spiritual hint, hinting that everyone here would become more and more aggrieved after leaving, and the more they thought about it, the more aggrieved they would be. In the end, all the grievances and grievances in his stomach turned into hatred, and they were all transferred to Azar.
Anyway, here are basically ordinary people, so there is no possibility of immune suggestion. These people probably went back to change their pants and protested at the gate of the Order.
After Wang Lei's hints were given, like the police in all movies, Sano hurriedly arrived with the discipline officer and the auxiliary personnel of the thirty-man regiment.
Although he knew that Wang Lei was an ally, he also promised Lord Xiao Cao Shen not to kill at will. But now the behavior of this group of people can be regarded as a frontal provocation, and they all deserve to die. With the thunder, Sano is really anxious.
Fortunately, after Seno arrived at the scene, he breathed a sigh of relief. He arrived in time and at least no bleeding occurred.
As for the stinky smell that had spread quickly, Sano could only cover his nose in disgust, saying that sometimes having a good sense of smell was really not a good thing. Then let the discipline officials quickly disperse the crowd.
When Wang Lei saw Sano again, he acted extremely coldly. Without saying hello, he turned around and left. Said with murderous intent when passing by Setale.
"Let Azar give me an explanation. If you can't explain it well, don't come back. I will talk to Azar in person and won't shock him into incontinence in public. I, the rice wife shogunate, should be taken for granted by him. "
After saying that, Setale, who was so surprised and aggrieved that she cried, returned directly to the guild hall.
At this time, in another large villa not far from Wang Lei's residence hall, the lady and the servant were watching Wang Lei's activities through the window.
Seeing that the disciplinary officer had dispersed the crowd, the servant said to the subordinates behind him
"The plan is successful. Go ahead and spread the information about the skirmishers. Although I don't know which little genius came up with this idea to incite public opinion. But it is exactly what I want. If only the residents of Port Olmos flee Xumi The affairs of the city are not enough to directly disrupt Xumi City. Now we have done twice the result with half the effort. Let me add more fire. Let me see how the people of Xumi will react when they know that their sacrifice is to make wedding clothes for others. Bar."
