His approach was immediately opposed by Commander Feng. The reason is very simple. The soldiers who surrendered can easily become enemies of Yanguang City again. Letting them stay at home now is tantamount to letting them go. He will not be an enemy of Flame City, what if he runs away?How to communicate with the Lord of Flame City?

"Brother Feng, let me ask you, why did you join the monk army?" Naruto asked back.

"The city lord is kind to me, of course I want to help him!" Commander Feng said gruffly.

"The reason why you joined the monk army of Yanguang City is because the city lord treats you well? You have known each other for a long time?" Naruto asked strangely.

"No, when I first joined, it was because of the good treatment here, and a lot of cultivation resources!" Commander Feng said truthfully, "But after I joined, I found that the city lord was very kind to me, and then I made contributions all the way, and gained a lot of cultivation resources." There are more and more resources, and the cultivation base is also slowly rising, and finally became the deputy commander of Yanguang City!"

"Well, the soldiers in Jincheng are similar to you. They joined the Jincheng cultivator army for the purpose of cultivating resources, but judging from the character of Jincheng Lord, they don't see how good it is for them, otherwise they would not surrender easily. In addition, the soldiers I chose to surrender are all locals. They are most concerned about the safety of their families. Now that the entire Jincheng is surrounded by us, it is impossible for them to escape with their families. We promise not to harm them and their families, so they have no incentive to run or fight against us!"

Naruto patiently explained to the deputy commander Feng for a while, and finally convinced the deputy commander who was loyal to the city lord.

Next, Naruto plans to set up guards in the city to prevent casual cultivators from causing trouble. The real soldier Feng is very familiar with this kind of thing, so Naruto entrusted him with this task and asked him to carry out the task. layout.

Naruto himself took Wu Xiaoyun and a hundred soldiers to the arena overnight.

He has fought twice in the arena, and he knows that there are a lot of masters there, and there are some unidentified slaves and criminals there, and the arena can have these privileges, it must be closely related to the owner of Jincheng, if they want to take advantage of the chaos If something happens, it's really troublesome.

So Naruto personally led people into the arena forcibly, and asked the guards inside to call out their supervisors.

The fighting arena had already been prepared, and several male cultivators came out in a hurry, and when they saw Naruto, they all saluted Naruto respectfully.

"Does any of you remember me?" Naruto glanced at them.

Several male cultivators looked at Naruto for a while, and the male cultivator on the left seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized, "You played two games here a while ago?"

"Yeah, it looks like you have a pretty good memory." Naruto laughed.

"The general's force is astonishing. Those two fights were so exciting that people can't forget them. To be honest, since I watched your duel that day, I feel that my realm has risen to a higher level. I really benefited a lot. Ah!" The male cultivator was also a sycophant, and immediately started to brag to Naruto.

But Naruto knew that those two fights could only be regarded as mediocre, because no one knew that the monk who appeared in the first match was a foundation-builder with hidden cultivation, and no one knew that his actual cultivation was also a foundation-builder. territory.

So although there were some bright spots in those two matches, they were not good-looking.

"I won't say anything about me. I just want to tell you that I know a lot about the arena. If you guys hide something later, I won't be polite!" Naruto warned.

"We will never hide it!" said the shrewd male cultivator. "Now Jincheng belongs to you. We know our situation and are willing to cooperate with you!"

Chapter 240 Rescue the Slave

"Okay!" Naruto gave a thumbs up, "He who knows the current affairs is a hero! Then let me ask you, where do the criminals and slaves in your arena come from?"

"This..." The male cultivator who spoke earlier looked at an old man standing in the middle, hesitating and daring not to speak out.

"What? Do you want me to take you into a small room to ask?" Naruto said with a straight face, "Don't look around, I can tell you clearly that in front of me, your identities are the same !"

"Huazi, tell me." The old man standing in the middle sighed, "He's right, we misjudged the situation, and after we found out that Jincheng City Lord failed, there was no time to escape. Now, what do they want to know? Tell them all!"

"Yes," the middle-aged male cultivator got the consent of his superiors, and immediately said to Naruto, "The criminals were provided by the city lord of Jincheng. Those who pay less taxes, and spies ... but which of them committed what crimes, we don't know!"

"You don't want to know, do you?" Naruto snorted, "Because they will all die, even if they defeat countless opponents, they will eventually die under other masters!"

"This... anyway, they were all sentenced to death..." the middle-aged male Xiu explained awkwardly.

Naruto waved his hand, "Let's ignore these, what happened to those slaves?"

"They are captives, captured by the city lord, mostly casual cultivators." The middle-aged male cultivator replied honestly.

Naruto thought for a while, and then said decisively, "Let everyone go."

"All released?" The middle-aged male cultivator was taken aback, "Some of them are indeed criminals, and they committed serious crimes such as murder and rape!"

"Aren't you guys unable to tell which one committed the crime? Then how can I tell the difference?" Naruto snorted, "Let them all go!"

The middle-aged male cultivator looked at the old man standing in the middle again, and the old man nodded, "Let's let it go."

"Wait!" Wu Xiaoyun couldn't help it anymore. Like the middle-aged male cultivator, she didn't understand why Naruto let the criminal go.

"Naruto, why don't you review them before releasing them?" Wu Xiaoyun suggested, "We can investigate one by one, and if we encounter a heinous villain, hand him over to our city lord, wouldn't it be better? "

Naruto shook his head, "How do you review? What about the evidence? What about the parties involved? The victim and the accuser? These are all gone! Even the people in the arena don't know which of these criminals committed what kind of crime, so how can we will know?"

"This...then you let them all go, what should you do if you let the bad guys go?"

"Have you ever heard such a saying?" Naruto said, "It's better to let one go than to kill a thousand by mistake!"

"I've never heard of it, but..." Wu Xiaoyun still couldn't react, "I always feel that it's not good to let the bad guys go!"

"Of course you can't let him go if you know he's a bad guy, but there must be evidence for everything. If you're not sure, you have to presume innocence, that is, assume he's a good guy. The purpose of this is to avoid accidentally hurting a good guy, understand?" Naruto patiently explained to Wu Xiaoyun.

"Avoid accidentally hurting good people?" Wu Xiaoyun seemed to understand a little bit, "You mean, you can't judge whether a person is good or bad by guessing, but by looking at the evidence?"

"Yes, that's it." Naruto looked at Wu Xiaoyun appreciatively, "You're very smart, I'll understand when I tell you."

"What the general said is really good!" The middle-aged male repairer immediately said, "I also understand what the general means, that is, in the absence of definite evidence, we must first assume that the other party is an innocent person!"

"You react very quickly, you can become a lawyer!" Naruto's mouth came out with a new word, "Let me just say it, I will let you go if you cooperate with my work, how about it?"

"General is wise, we will fully cooperate with your work!" said the old man in charge.

"It seems that there are smart people here, so things will be easy to handle."

Naruto asked them to gather the slaves and criminals together, and release them after he reported to the city lord.

As for the arena, they are still allowed to continue driving. This is the atmosphere in this world, and it cannot be changed if you want to. As long as all the people participating in the duel are voluntary, Naruto has no intention of interfering.

After he settled the matter in the arena, it was dawn, and at this moment, those veterans of the original Jincheng Complete Army who went back to see their families temporarily also returned to their teams one after another. They knew clearly Very soon, the current Jincheng is already owned by the Lord Yanguang, and there is no point in running away or hiding it. It is better to obey the order of the Lord Yanguang and be honestly incorporated, so that at least the family can be kept.

So none of them who were sent back by Naruto escaped, and all returned to the original team.
