Chapter 403

Lu Mo followed the city lord all the way out of the gatebreaker corps camp. The city lord walked very slowly along the way, and Lu Mo kept silent and didn't speak.Compared with the heretic who was left behind by the city lord to take care of the aftermath, Lu Mo was very disturbed at this time, and didn't know how the city lord would deal with him.Not only did Lu Mo not follow the assignment of the city lord to go to the new city, but he also arbitrarily caused disputes in Sin City, but at least Lu Mo also created an opportunity for the city lord.

"You can sit down by yourself, we will talk about things slowly later, you should take a look at this first."

Lu Mo followed the city lord all the way back to the city lord's mansion, and now the city lord took Lu Mo to his study.While calling Lu Mo to sit casually, the city lord handed a document to Lu Mo.Lu Mo took a few glances in his hand and was taken aback. It turned out that the information given to Lu Mo by the city lord was a list, a list of people who were bought by Pure Land in Sin City.And just above this list, Wang Wei's name is impressively on it.

"These people... the list should be made by Gao Qiang, right?"

"That's right, and I've read the list carefully. It seems that your old subordinate Wang Wei is also on the list."

Lu Mo continued to quickly browse the list while asking the city lord.Except for Lu Mo's old subordinate Wang Wei, Zuo Dao naturally couldn't escape.Lu Mo didn't know many people on this list, but through the brief remarks about the positions, Lu Mo realized that the credibility of this list was still extremely high.Assuming that everything on this list is related to the Pure Land forces, then it is certain that the Sin City side has been disintegrated.

"Lu Mo, do you think your old subordinates have really turned to the Pure Land forces?"

"No, Wang Wei definitely won't. If he joins the Pure Land forces, he will have many opportunities to betray me."

"Hehe... It seems that you are still young and don't understand people's hearts."

The city lord said that he came to sit down opposite Lu Mo, took the list that was handed to Lu Mo earlier, and then tore it up in front of Lu Mo.Lu Mo watched the list shattered into pieces in the hands of the city lord, wondering what the city lord's intention was.Do they also feel that the list is not credible, or have already remembered the people on the list, or have sent someone to deal with the matter.

"Do you know why I said you shouldn't do that? Because you don't understand people's hearts."

"People's hearts? Specifically..."

"People's hearts are sinister and unpredictable. There are many theories about people's hearts. But in Sin City, you can see all kinds of people, each with different things in their hearts. I want these people who use Sin City to complete my plans to bring about change in the world...only by using people's hearts."

Of course Lu Mo knows the literal meaning of human heart, but the extended meaning behind it is difficult to explain in words.The city lord talked about this topic with Lu Mo at this time, and it involved his plan to change the world in vain.Lu Mo knew that things might not be easy, so what is the city lord planning to do?

"Lu Mo, I think the reason why you want to cause trouble in Sin City and create an opportunity for the plan to start must be your plan. But do you know why I planned to do it in Xincheng? It's because of what I just said Those two words, people's hearts."

The original plan of the city lord was that Sin City launched an action under the passive suppression of the Holy See.And the reason why the city lord made such a plan was because he knew the people of Sin City, or the hearts of Sin City.In order to truly mobilize the power of Sin City, it is necessary to rely on huge external pressure to gather people together.Otherwise, even without the infiltration of Pure Land forces, Sin City would still be in a state of distraction.

"In this way, I acted without authorization and broke the plan of the city lord. It seems that even if I win this opportunity, it will not be of much help to the plan of the city lord?"

"Yes, your approach is inappropriate. Not only will it implicate your Patriarch, but also Lianyou, who is going to the new city, and it will even have an unpredictable impact on my plan."

"The plan... Xichen... my family, how could it affect the Lu family? I just wanted to avoid implicating them, so I took great pains to put the beginning of this matter in Sin City."

The city lord explained to Lu Mo again. Although Lu Mo's approach is ingenious, it is impossible for everything that happens in Sin City to affect the Pure Land.But Lu Mo forgot that at this time, Sin City had long been infiltrated by the Pure Land forces, and Lu Mo's involvement in it could not be concealed for a long time.The best way to protect the Lu family is to let Lu Mo highlight his importance, so that the Pure Land will not embarrass the Lu family too much.

"I understand. It turns out that the city lord meant to let the Pure Land team be wary of rats, so that even if the Holy See wants to move the Lu family, it has to consider factors."

"I did have this intention at the beginning, but that's not the reason why I let you go with Xichen. But when Gao Qiang came to see me today, I had better attention, so there was me and Gao Qiang. trade."

Lu Mo heard the city lord talk about the deal with Gao Qiang, and knew that his guess just now was indeed correct.It seems that the price given by Gao Qiang is definitely not as simple as the previous list.After all, the city lord spared Gao Qiang's life, so Gao Qiang naturally had to get something equivalent.

"After Gao Qiang goes back this time, I guess in order to defend himself, he will definitely push the problem to you, so when the time comes..."

It turns out that in the deal between the city lord and Gao Qiang, the list just now might not even count as a deal.The city lord first released Gao Qiang in exchange for Gao Qiang's remarks in public.The follow-up of the transaction between the city lord and Gao Qiang is that Gao Qiang will lie about the military situation after returning to the Holy See, and the city lord will fully cooperate.Although the city lord didn't say anything else, Lu Mo believed that there must be other deals.

"City Master, since the matter in the new city is so important, you should have told me before, now only Xichen is there, I'm afraid..."

"It's okay. In fact, if I let you and Xichen go there, it's the same as you pretending to leave Sin City. It's just a trick to hide the truth. The owner of Xincheng is the Supreme Master. Even if you and Xichen don't What will it do."

"But...the City Lord has other arrangements in the new city?"

Lu Mo learned about the importance of the new city from the city lord, but the city lord never planned to rely on Lu Mo and Xichen from the very beginning. Lu Mo immediately thought of his previous guess that the city lord might have other things in the new city. layout.For example, Lianyou, who Lu Mo and Xichen have always been suspicious of, is likely to secretly lurk in the new city.

"Yes, I do have other arrangements, but this matter can no longer be carried out according to the original plan, so I want you to rush to the new city as soon as possible."

"Xincheng...but it's still a long time before the next routine supply, I'm afraid there will be a delay."

"Space mother, you don't want to, this time there is no ride for you. It is not impossible to rush there as soon as possible. You can go directly to the new city through the military area, but it is on the way..."

The way the city bishop gave Lu Mo to go to the new city was exactly what Lu Mo thought, which was to take the risk of crossing the military area.The most dangerous thing about this route is not the military area, but how to enter the military area from the back of Sin City.

Since Sin City is known as the last line of defense in the Pure Land, it naturally has the strength worthy of this title. Sin City can stop all dragons who are attacking from the front.In order to prevent the sin city from being attacked by the dragons, the pure land carried out a large-scale transformation of the sin city in the follow-up.In addition to retaining the front and side gates of the sin city, the rear of the sin city was completely sealed off, and a huge high wall was built to resist the dragons.

"The high wall behind the city should not be a big problem for you, but after entering the military area, you are likely to encounter the army under the jurisdiction of the Holy See. I remember that I asked you and Xichen to prepare some people. This time you can Take these people and go there together."

"We haven't found any suitable staff. I'm afraid I'll be the only one going on this trip."

"How could there be no suitable manpower, what about Wang Wei? I remember that among your old subordinates, there is a man named...Xu You."

The city lord had indeed asked Lu Mo and Xichen to find suitable people, but after Lu Mo and Xichen ruled out Wang Wei and Wang Tong, only Lu Mo had a conversation with Xu You, and Xichen had nothing at all.At this time, it was time to employ people, so Lu Mo could only bite the bullet and continue to rely on himself.

"Wang Wei...you can't ask him to come with me. As for Xu You...I have to ask again."

"Why, just because Wang Wei is on Gao Qiang's list, you can't trust him?"

"No, after all, Wang Wei has an extra concern now, so it's not appropriate to go to him. And after entering the military control area, it is more eye-catching to say that there are too many people."

Seeing that Lu Mo had been thinking about it for a long time, there was no one to choose, so he sent someone to call Xu You.The city lord said that Xu You should follow Lu Mo to the new city for a mission. After the mission is over, Xu You can freely decide whether to come back.Besides Xu You, the city lord originally wanted to add some more manpower to Lu Mo, but Lu Mo still refused on the grounds that there were too many people and it was too easy to expose the target.

"The matter is rather urgent. You must leave immediately and rush to the new city. Otherwise, I'm afraid Gao Qiang will take the first step. In that case, the people who were previously assigned to the new city will be in danger."

Because of the previous transaction between the city lord and Gao Qiang, Gao Qiang had already left Sin City with several of his capable men, so Lu Mo must not delay too long.The city lord immediately issued a warrant for Lu Mo and Xu You, and the two of them had to set off immediately after choosing the supplies they were carrying.After the city lord sent Lu Mo and Xu You away, it was time to do what he was supposed to do.

"Come on, tell Team 86 to gather, and find someone to tell Zuo Dao to come and see me."

The city lord gave an order, and the two adjutants of the city lord's mansion took the order and left.One person went to the Doorbreaker Corps to assemble the 86 squad, and one person went to the Ranger Corps to inform the leftists.The city lord walked to the window of the study and looked in the direction of the Sword and Shield Corps.Although the plan has not officially started, but because Lu Mo has created this opportunity, the city lord will also start to act.
