Pawn Crossing the River
Chapter 96 Members
Qi Xuansu even considered the issue of escaping after his identity was exposed. The patriarch and cardinal were not around, and he not only had "Shebi Corpse Poison" in his hand, but also a Buddha relic. Although it cannot be compared with the Buddha's relics, it is enough for Qi Xuansu to issue a "Shi Wuwei Seal" whose power is infinitely close to the "Infinite Buddha Palm" of Patriarch Jin Gong.
Back then, Chen Shuhua could cut through the front line of Shenglong Mansion with one sword, so Patriarch Jin Gong's palm would not be much inferior.
A palm fell from the sky.
All buildings on the floating island will be razed to the ground, and the entire floating island will be overwhelmed and fall toward St. York below.
The first reaction of the big shots in St. York was naturally to prevent the floating island from crashing into the city, which gave Qi Xuansu time to escape.
Some people may say, this kind of behavior is so cruel, where is the morality?
In fact, below the upper city is the middle city, which is the most prosperous of the five districts and has almost no real civilians.
It is precisely because there are no civilians that the big shots in the Holy Court have to use all their strength to stop it and prevent it from being harmed at all.
If it were a civilian area, the big shots wouldn't be so concerned, and might think that chasing Qi Xuansu was more important.
The logic in this is sad and shameful.
Qi Xuansu had no moral burden for the destruction of Western nobles. Perhaps from a Western perspective, he was a devil who caused countless sufferings. But from the standpoint of the indigenous people, he is a hero who helps them avenge themselves. The Westerners deserved their share of suffering in the New World for their killings.
The premise of whether morality is correct or not is where do you stand? Accusing a person of destroying his enemies makes his position more questionable.
But this is the worst-case scenario, Qi Xuansu doesn't want it to come to this point.
He even wanted to know what secrets were buried in that tomb.
At this time, in a lounge, the door was closed, and the windows were blocked by thick curtains, leaving no gaps. Even the entire lounge was shrouded in special magic, completely isolating it from the outside world.
There were six men in the lounge, five councilors and a clergyman, including Leopold and Strawney. There are also six beautiful women who serve as the female companions of these six men.
However, these women were not with their male companions at this time. For example, Karen, who came to the lounge with Strawney, was riding on the lap of the priest, and the two faced each other, face to face. face, Karen's hands wrapped around the priest's neck. Sitting next to Strawney is Leopold's female companion, a vampire lady who looks very well-behaved and quiet.
Decay, depravity, depravity.
Of course they would not have thought that there was a terrifying "devil" outside, planning to flatten the floating island with one palm and knock this highest crystallization of steam technology into dust.
Leopold is a gray-haired old gentleman with a slightly sinister temperament that is in line with his blood status. Because the baron is his descendant, he is the main candidate for this blending.
The senior congressman was leaning on the back of the single sofa, with his hands on the armrests and his legs crossed, showing a bit of dominance. As a result, his dark-skinned temporary female companion could only squeeze her plump buttocks on the armrest and hold the old congressman's shoulders with both hands.
Leopold looked around: "We must make a decision. Things are getting out of our hands."
"Mr. Strauss, I don't quite understand what you mean. What do you mean that things are getting out of our control?" asked another congressman. This congressman has an extremely burly body and almost wears the poor tuxedo on his body. It was broken, and under the white shirt were muscles like rocks. The girl sitting on his lap looked like a rag doll in comparison.
The congressman's name is Bill Williamson. He is also a senior member of Parliament. Although he is slightly inferior to Leopold who is expected to compete for the position of speaker, he should not be underestimated.
Except for the priest and Strawney, the remaining four senior congressmen happened to correspond to the four gang leaders in the lower city.
There is no doubt that Leopold corresponds to the baron, and Bill corresponds to the hound.
There are also two senior MPs, Sean McGwire and Charles Smith, the former corresponding to the Beggar King and the latter to the Butcher.
How to deal with the Baron's affairs mainly depends on the attitude of these four senior councilors, but there is a prerequisite, it must be with the permission and witness of the Holy Court. So here is another priest, the cardinal.
The only exception is Strawney.
He shouldn't have appeared here, but Leopold invited him here.
Because of this, Qi Xuansu felt strange and alert, and even began to consider destroying the floating island.
Leopold said: "At this stage of the matter, I don't want to hide anything anymore. I can tell you frankly that before I attended the dinner, I asked Ramon to come to see me, but Ramon not only refused to meet me, but also Four of my descendants have been detained and I have lost contact with them. The only thing that is certain is that they are still alive but imprisoned somewhere.”
Charles sneered: "Strauss, is this a good show between you and O'Shea?"
Sean said: "No, Rose, a law enforcement officer from the city council, discussed matters with O'Shea today about Miss O'Shea and has not returned yet."
The real big shot, witness, representative of the Holy See, cardinal priest, Milton Burlington also spoke: "There is also a priest from the Holy See who has disappeared, and the last place he appeared was O'Shea's mansion."
Leopold said: "Now I can prove the authenticity of what I said. I think there are two possibilities. The first possibility is that Ramon obtained the power of Kukulkan, and the sudden powerful power made him lose his mind. , and made an irrational decision. The second possibility is that someone else intervened in the matter, and Ramon and his harvest may have fallen into the hands of others. In Eastern terms, we may be in trouble. The basket was empty."
Bill asked: "If it's the second possibility, who are the other people you're talking about?"
Leopold shook his head and said, "I don't know."
At this moment, Strawney couldn't help but said: "Gentlemen, I'm not sure, what does this have to do with me?"
"Mr. Strawney, of course this matter has something to do with you." Leopold made a calm gesture, "In fact, I remember that you have quite good personal friendships with those southern natives. "
Strawney argued: "Mr. Strauss, those are normal trade transactions."
Behind Strawney are several major multinational chambers of commerce. These chambers of commerce have close ties with Tawanting in the south, so they have been infiltrated by Beichen Hall.
"Mr. Strawney, please allow me to call you by your name. Dear Josiah, I think you have misunderstood. I don't mean to accuse you of anything." Leopold waved his hand, "I want to say that this This mausoleum belongs to the ancestors of those indigenous people. Maybe this foreign force that suddenly intervened came from the south, so I think you should have the right to know. "
Strawney made an unbelievable expression: "This... is impossible. This is St. York, the pearl of the entire northern continent."
"I also thought this was impossible, but now it has really happened. My Ramon betrayed me." Leopold said, "So no matter how incredible it is, this is the most reasonable explanation."
Strawney asked, "What should I do?"
Leopold smiled: "Oh, dear Josiah, it's not what you should do, but what should we do. This is our collective interest."
Sean agreed: "In the face of foreign enemies, we should temporarily give up our disputes and differences, and first keep our harvest. As for how to distribute it, that is a matter for the future."
Bill put the female companion on his lap on the sofa next to him and stood up: "Then what are you waiting for? We should go to the lower city immediately, find Ramon before those infidels, and get back what should be ours. thing."
Leopold did not speak, but looked at Milton with a gentler tone: "Dear Lord Burlington, what do you think?"
Milton was still playing some unspeakable games with the most beautiful Karen, and said casually: "I agree with this statement. Just as we come to the New World, the first thing is to eliminate those indigenous aliens who do not believe in the glory of the Supreme Will. Cultists, instead of distributing the spoils.”
Charles said: "I'm afraid the power of law enforcement officers alone is not enough. Do we need to take action ourselves?"
"Now it seems that this is the only way." Leopold said, "But to be sure, I suggest that a steam elite team be mobilized in the name of the parliament to prevent any unexpected events."
Sean added: "Although ordinary law enforcement officers can't be of much help, we can't let them idle and send them all to the lower city to find the entrance to the ruins. We can't wait any longer with Ramon O. Thanks for bargaining, we need to take action."
"I agree."
"I agree."
"I agree."
Several other lawmakers expressed their opinions.
They were originally going to demonstrate the art of compromise and deal here and distribute the spoils, but an unexpected situation interrupted the process. They had to unite to defeat the foreign enemies first, and then consider the distribution of the spoils.
Leopold then said to Strawney: "Of course, there is another possibility. If the enemy is too strong, then we hope that you can come forward and promote both parties to reach a compromise through your personal friendship."
Strawney couldn't help but ask: "This is St. York. No matter how powerful the enemy is, can it still compete with His Majesty the Patriarch?"
Leopold laughed again, and did not even avoid the fact that Milton's brother was the senior priest of the Duke of Burlington. He said in a tone of elder teaching junior: "Dear Joshua, you should understand one thing. "Give to the goddess what is the goddess's, and give to Caesar what is Caesar's."
