Cultivation: Overturning the Rain and Turning the Clouds

"To the City Lord, the little one... the little one is just following orders..."

"Order? Whose order did you obey?"

"It's...it's Mr. Xue, the chief soldier, this...this is his order!"

"So, Lord Xue ordered you to oppress the common people?"

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

Things like oppressing the common people are outrageous.Throughout the ages, all corrupt officials have been counted, which one is not scratching the ground while trying desperately to claim the reputation of being honest and upright?On the surface, it seems that they want to be a piao and set up a chastity archway for themselves, but in fact, they are so 'tired', and it is all to give an explanation to the superior.Otherwise, those corrupt officials are all openly clamoring for money and oppressing the common people. It is not them who are ugly, but the emperor!

"My lord, this... this matter has nothing to do with Master Xue, it's all small... It's a small obsession, a small conviction, a small conviction..."

If this dirty water was splashed on Xue Dongfeng's head, not only Hu's surname would die, but his family would also have a hard time ending well.Everything is taken care of, maybe Xue Dongfeng can protect him for a while, and if he fails to become an official, he can go home and become a rich man.

"Wow! Master Hu is really righteous, and he will never hurt Shangfeng. Admiration! Since Master Xue didn't order you to oppress the people, it's your own death! Someone, drag him out and chop him up!"

"Ah!? The city lord, spare your life, the city lord, spare your life!" Mr. Hu still thought things simply. He didn't expect that although Wan Dong was young, he was decisive in killing him. A chance to intercede for him.How can this work?Master Hu's face turned pale at that moment, and his head was pounding, as if he didn't know the pain at all.

"You oppress the common people, domineering, and you still have the face to ask me to spare your life? Good! Then you give me a reasonable reason!"

"My lord, my little one..." The bully came to the head of the big brother of the city owner, and he was even caught by the city owner. Not to mention that Mr. Hu only has one head, even if he has heads all over his body, what can he come up with? reason?

At this time, seeing Wan Dong's cold eyes with a murderous look, he felt that the blood all over his body was about to freeze.

Wan Dong chuckled and said, "How about this, the Lord of the City will give you another chance. Did you come here under Xue Dongfeng's order?"

"Ah? This..." Hearing what Wan Dong said, Mr. Hu's heart suddenly moved, and his brain suddenly came alive.

Mr. Hu is a smart man, but he was just fooled by fright.At this time, I sent Wan Dong's words back and thought about it several times, and immediately felt the taste.The new city lord seems to be not very happy with Xue Dongfeng.

what to do?Should he surrender to the new city lord, or give his life to Xue Dongfeng?Pooh!Xue Dongfeng is not my own father, nor has I ever raised him for a day, so why should I give him my life? ***, wealth and wealth are sought in insurance, perhaps this is the turning point of my life, Hu Gui!

Hu Gui's heart wandered a few times, rather than die immediately, it is better to give it a go!

"Sir City Master, the little one just remembered, the little one just obeyed Lord Xue's order, there is absolutely nothing wrong!"

A smile appeared on Wan Dong's face, he nodded slightly, and said, "I'll just say it! You are a little commander, where did you get such courage? You are also following orders, and you have no choice. Today, the city lord will Let me go! However, for the things you damaged, you must compensate me according to the price, not a penny less!"

"This is nature, this is nature!" Hearing what Wan Dong said, Hu Gui breathed a sigh of relief.As for losing money, it's not a big deal at all!Hu Gui quickly took out all the money in his body, and even ransacked his subordinates with beatings and scolding, and finally sent a large bag of broken silver notes to Zhu Cai with both hands.

Zhu Cai took a look at it, and the sum of the money was probably enough to build a new inn.

"Brother, since they compensated you, you can accept it!" Seeing that Zhu Cai hesitated, Wan Dong opened his mouth and said.

"Yes, yes, the little ones have blind eyes and offended the elder, please don't take offense!" Hu Gui also said to Zhu Cai with a smile on his face. With that appearance, he wished he could kneel down to Tiantian Zhu Cai Toes are fine.

Zhu Cai was obviously not used to the majestic and majestic official lord who was usually a pug at this time, flattering him in every possible way.However, he still obeyed Wan Dong's words and collected the silver taels.

"Hmph...Master Hu?"

"Don't, don't, my lord, how can I bear you to be called like this? My surname is Hu Minggui, you... just call me Hu Gui."

Wan Dong nodded, and said, "Hu Gui! You immediately send someone to call Xue Dongfeng, and tell him that I am waiting for him in the City Lord's Mansion, and let him come to see me as soon as possible!"

"My lord, you...you want to..." Seeing Wan Dong's uneasy expression, Hu Gui was very nervous.

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

"No...no, no! I'll send someone now, I'll send someone now!" Wan Dong's eyes were as cold as ice, almost freezing Hu Gui to death.How dare you ask nonsense again, and hurriedly ordered someone to invite Xue Dongfeng.

After bidding farewell to Zhu Cai, Wan Dong took Hu Gui and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

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

The officers and soldiers who came to invite him nodded hastily, and said, "Yes! The City Lord has an order, please go to the City Lord's Mansion immediately to meet him!"

"Let me go to see him, right away? Hahaha... It seems that this kid really regards himself as the master of God Thunder City. Good! I will go to see him right away, and I will let him know by the way, although he He is the owner of the city, but he may not be able to have the final say in this city of thunder! Come here!"

Xue Dongfeng wanted to give Wan Dong a bad start, when he yelled out, dozens of people rushed in immediately, all of them were Xue Dongfeng's personal guards, all masters, and went straight to the city lord's mansion.Those who didn't know thought that Xue Dongfeng was planning to attack the City Lord's Mansion!

At the same time, in the City Lord's Mansion, Hu Gui waited on Wan Dong's side carefully, not even daring to lose his mind.

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

"Hu Gui, what are you leading someone to search for today?"

Wan Dong suddenly asked casually, his eyes did not fall on Hu Gui, but Hu Gui still felt a kind of pressure that he could hardly bear.

Under such heavy pressure, how dare Hu Gui tell lies?Originally said, "Miss Chu suddenly disappeared, and the little one was ordered by Xue Dongfeng to search in the east of the city!"

Wan Dong nodded slightly, as if he was satisfied that Hu Gui could tell the truth.Seeing Hu Gui, the pressure on her body was relieved a lot.

"Then besides you, is there anyone else searching?"

Wan Dong's nod was like an encouragement to Hu Gui, and Hu Gui replied without even thinking about it, "Yes! Because Xue Dongfeng asked us to search every household, we can't let go of an inch, so the manpower required is very large. It’s big, and it’s very troublesome. Besides me, there are several 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.”

"Last night, the Forbidden Ghost Army appeared in the south of the city, and today they searched the east and west of the city, which means that it's the turn of the north of the city tonight..."

"Huh? Master landlord, what did you say, I didn't hear clearly."

Wan Dong smiled and said, "It's nothing! Hu Gui, I want to give you an eternal opportunity to make meritorious service, but I don't know if you have the guts to continue!"

"Of course! The city lord just orders!" Hu Gui said happily.

Wan Dongdao: "Tonight, I want you to lead your soldiers and horses to ambush secretly in the north of the city. Once you find anyone from the Phantom Forbidden Army, kill them immediately!"

"Phantom Forbidden Army?!" Hu Gui obviously didn't expect that the chance of meritorious service Wan Dong mentioned would be an ambush of Ghost Forbidden Army, and his eyes widened in shock.

Wan Dong glanced at him, and asked lightly, "Why, are you scared?"

Hu Gui's expression immediately became awkward, and said, "I'm not afraid, but I have 1 troops under my command! It's just that the ghost guards come and go without a trace, and their behavior is strange. How could the city lord know that the ghost guards will appear in the city tonight?" North of the city?"

"Don't worry about it! You just have to do what I say!"

Hu Gui nodded heavily, and said in a vibrating voice, "Don't worry, Lord City Master, Hu Gui will definitely do his best!"

Hu Gui also noticed that Wan Dong is not the kind of soft-hearted master who can be settled with a few flattery words. If he wants to be stable in front of him, he must have something real. It seems that If we don't fight a tough battle, it won't work.

"Okay! You go to meet Mr. Xue, he has arrived!"

"It's here?" Hu Gui was taken aback for a moment, and an officer and soldier under him suddenly walked in quickly.

"My lord, Xue Dongfeng and his guards are walking here, and they should arrive soon."

When Hu Gui heard this, he immediately looked at Wan Dong with horror on his face.According to what the officers and soldiers said, Xue Dongfeng hadn't arrived at the City Lord's Mansion yet, but Wan Dong already knew it while sitting here. What kind of supernatural power is this?It's almost like having a celestial eye.

Wan Dong smiled at Hu Gui and said, "Go!"

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

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

The City Lord's Mansion at this time is no longer comparable to before.Hu Gui has already ordered three layers of people inside and outside three layers of strict security to guard it.Three steps, one post, five steps, one sentry, very strict.A sharp-eyed guard beside Xue Dongfeng whispered in Xue Dongfeng's ear.

"Hu Gui's team?" Xue Dongfeng was also slightly taken aback, obviously not understanding, when did Hu Gui get together with Xu Yaoting?

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

"Wei Tong, are you blind or crazy? How dare you block Master Xue's way!?" The sharp-eyed guard pointed at Wei Tong's nose and cursed.
