After the Wang family calmed down, Zhang Yifeng's expression softened slightly.
He looked at Yang Xiao and said again: "I can't stay here for a long time because of other things. Before I leave, I hope you can be qualified for the job of city lord."
Hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Yang Xiao was shocked and his expression became solemn.
"Your Majesty shows you such love, Yang Xiao will swear to serve you to the death, in order to repay your kindness to Yang Xiao, but for the position of city lord, I'm afraid..."
Yang Xiao was interrupted by Zhang Yifeng before he finished speaking.
"You are only temporarily holding the position of city lord. When I find a new candidate suitable for the city lord in the future, I will make other arrangements for you. Before that, you can manage Weiwo City for me."
"Don't worry too much. With the help of the Jia family, managing a city is not as difficult as you think."
After listening to Zhang Yifeng's words, Yang Xiao felt relieved.
Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Yifeng's voice came through again. He looked at everyone in the Wang family and said coldly: "You guys go down first."
"yes!"
The Wang family members responded and retreated one after another.
Yang Xiao was the only one left at the scene. Yang Xiao knew that Zhang Yifeng must have something to say to him.
"Do you have anything to say, sir?"
Zhang Yifeng nodded and said: "All the former subordinates of the Yuwen family have fled. Now the City Lord's Mansion is facing the embarrassing situation of having no one available. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Hearing this, Yang Xiao pondered for a while and then said: "Sir, we can recruit people from Dingyuanfang."
Dingyuanfang? Recruiting?
After hearing Yang Xiao's words, Zhang Yifeng frowned slightly.
It's not that he hasn't thought about recruiting people, but monks have always been used to being free and unorganized. If he rashly recruits a group of monks from the outside world, the people he recruits will inevitably be a mixed bag. It will be difficult for them to obey the rules and regulations of the city lord's palace in a short period of time.
rule.
Moreover, if the people you invite are disobedient and cause trouble wantonly, it will be self-defeating.
Perhaps seeing the worry in Zhang Yifeng's heart, Yang Xiao said: "Sir, you don't know something. The monks in Dingyuanfang are different from the monks in other places. They generally have a very low level and live in very poverty. If we
If we can provide them with basic cultivation resources, they will be happy to serve you, sir, and the monks there are all casual cultivators with clean backgrounds and can be used by you."
After listening to Yang Xiao's words, Zhang Yifeng's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that there was such a place in this city!
Under normal circumstances, even a monk with a low level of cultivation would not be able to live in such a miserable state as long as he was willing to endure hardships. He couldn't help but wonder why the monks in Dingyuanfang were as poor as Yang Xiao said.
.
In an instant, Zhang Yifeng had an idea in his mind.
"Let's go and have a look at Dingyuanfang."
Zhang Yifeng said, and was about to walk out of the city lord's palace, but was stopped by Yang Xiao.
"Sir, my subordinates have not mentioned anything yet. Almost all of those monks were persecuted by the Yuwen family and ended up in Dingyuanfang. They all have some physical problems. Please be mentally prepared.
." Yang Xiao gritted his teeth and said.
Looking at the look on Yang Xiao's face, Zhang Yifeng frowned.
He vaguely felt that the matter might not be as simple as Yang Xiao said, but he did not ask any more questions and walked towards Dingyuanfang with Yang Xiao.
Although Sihai City is a city belonging to monks, not all people in the city are monks. There are also ordinary people here, and Dingyuanfang is where those ordinary people stay.
At this moment, on the dirty streets of Dingyuanfang, seven or eight monks in strange clothes were walking wantonly on the streets. Their bodies exuded a strong smell of blood. It could be seen from their violent eyes that these monks were
People are definitely not a good bunch.
"Brother, the Yuwen family has been destroyed, and that bastard named Feng Yi has become the new city lord. If he knows about your relationship with Yuwen city lord, I'm afraid he won't let us go." A young man with a sinister face said to the team leader.
A tall man with a beard in the center said.
The bearded man smiled coldly: "Hmph, if I weren't afraid of that old dog Jia Wenzhe, I would have rushed into the city lord's mansion and chopped off the head of the city lord Laoshizi to avenge my elder brother!"
If Jia Wenzhe were here, he would be greatly surprised when he heard what the bearded man said. Yu Wenshang actually had a younger brother!
"Brother, in my opinion, in order to avoid long nights and many dreams, it is better for us to leave the city as soon as possible. It will not be too late for us to avenge Yuwen City Lord in the future. Moreover, this is not the place to talk." The young man said worriedly.
The big man with the beard laughed a few times and said nonchalantly: "I, Yu Wenlie, have been afraid of anyone all my life. What's more, Dingyuanfang is a slum area and the people here are just ants. What do we have to worry about?"
of."
The young man sighed slightly and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yu Wenlie.
"Okay, I know you are also thinking about our safety. Today we will leave Sihai City after collecting the Yuwen family's treasures."
After hearing Yu Wenlie's words, the worry in the young man's eyes gradually eased.
The group of people walked towards the depths of Dingyuanfang.
At the same time, the Jia family.
"The head of the family, Alchemist Feng Yi is heading towards Dingyuanfang with a monk at the moment." A Jia family hidden guard reported to Jia Wenzhe.
Listening to the hidden guard's report, Jia Wenzhe frowned tightly.
"Strange, Dingyuanfang is just a place where ordinary people stay, so why would Alchemist Feng Yi go there?"
A deep doubt arose in Jia Wenzhe's heart.
Although he recommended Zhang Yifeng to be the city lord, in order to avoid suspicion, he did not participate in all matters concerning the city lord's mansion, but let Zhang Yifeng do what he wanted. Therefore, he was not very clear about Zhang Yifeng's purpose of going to Dingyuanfang.
"Let's check again. If you have any news about Alchemist Feng Yi, please report it to me at any time."
"Yes, Master."
...Dingyuanfang is some distance away from the city lord's palace. Two-quarters of an hour later, they arrived at the boundaries of Dingyuanfang.
As soon as he approached Dingyuanfang, a pungent stench reached Zhang Yifeng's nose, and what he saw was a ruined building.
Looking at the dirty and messy environment in front of him, a look of suspicion appeared in Zhang Yifeng's eyes. At this moment, he even had the illusion that he had returned to the realm of mortals again?
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard for him to imagine that there would be such a place in a city belonging to monks!
"Sir, this is Dingyuanfang."
Seeing Zhang Yifeng stopped moving forward, Yang Xiao reminded him from the side.
Zhang Yifeng came back to his senses, nodded, and continued to move forward. The dirty environment and dilapidated buildings on both sides made him somewhat doubtful. Do monks really exist in such a place?
