Ding!
A wisp of finger wind hit the bell in the corner. The palm-sized bell was made of gold or brass. It was golden and very dazzling. The vibration frequency is very small, but the sound is incredibly loud. Like a drop of water falling on a lake, the ripples expand from small to larger.
when--
The sound spread throughout Swamp City. At this moment, everyone in Swamp City, whether they were awake, sleeping, or in retreat, trembled in spirit, and were forcibly awakened, and they all looked in the direction of the Wang Family Courtyard.
The bell is called Fright, and it functions as an alarm bell. It is a token of Swamp City. When you hear the Fright bell, it is as if the city lord is here in person. If you disobey, you will be killed without mercy. The status of the Fright Bell in Swamp City is equivalent to the ancient gold medal.
When Wang Xungong saw that the ringtone had been passed on, he let out a long breath. What he was most worried about was that Liu Wei'an was too strong and blocked his distress signal.
But Liu Wei'an was obviously careless. He didn't realize until the bell rang that the sound had already been transmitted. Even if he was angry, it was useless.
"Do you think it's embarrassing for me to ask for help?" Wang Xungong looked at Liu Wei'an's surprised expression and felt very proud.
In the face of survival, what does face mean?
"No, if it were me, I would leave like this. But -" Wang Xungong's expression changed as soon as Liu Wei'an changed the topic.
"If it were me, the distress signal should be secretive, so no one can notice it." Liu Wei'an's expression was not anxious at all. He neither took action nor took any precautions. The alarm bell was just an ordinary thing.
It was quiet outside, and the expected phenomenon from the Eight Sides Source did not appear. No one came, not a single person. Wang Xungong's expression changed again and again, his heart sank to the bottom, but his anger was burning.
These white-eyed wolves.
In the beginning, if he hadn't kindly taken them in and allowed them to settle in Swamp City, how would these people have any chance of making a fortune? They agreed to fight the enemy together, but no one kept it.
"Liu Wei'an, you are so clever!" Wang Xungong stared at Liu Wei'an. He knew that he had lost and was completely defeated.
Liu Wei'an smiled and shook his head, dipped his hand into the tea, and wrote two words on the table: "People's hearts!"
Wang Xungong's body was shaken violently. He stared at the two words for a long time and suddenly raised his head to the sky.
He laughed so wildly that he burst into tears. There was a hint of desolation in the last laugh.
Liu Wei'an looked at him quietly.
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, you beat Liu Wei'an!" Wang Xungong ordered surrender and the fighting stopped.
The Wang family's compound was quickly occupied by Ping'an soldiers. This made the expressions of Zhou Yiwei and the Wu family who came slowly changed. The Wang family surrendered so quickly, but now they were passive.
When the two sides do not help each other, neutrality seems to be the safest, but that is in a state of war. Once one party wins and does not suffer much loss, the neutral person will be in trouble.
How can we enjoy peace if we cannot share adversity together?
Zhou Yiwei asked his men to inquire about the information while approaching the Wu family, wanting to discuss what was right and wrong together. At worst, the combination of the two would make the Ping An army worry about one thing or another.
However, when Zhou Yiwei was one street away from Wu's house, his way was blocked by a sudden appearance of a troop. When he saw clearly who was leading the team, Zhou Yiwei trembled in his heart.
Ningjie!
"Where are you going, Master Zhou?" Ning Jie, riding on a war horse, seemed to ask casually, but his fingers were pressed on the handle of the knife and his body was tense, ready to attack and hurt anyone at any time. The killing intent in his eyes was concealed. Inhumane.
"So Deputy Protector Ning, I wonder where Fang Dutong went?" Zhou Yiwei was able to sit in the position of the head of the family, and his sense of danger was far beyond ordinary people, and he could see the problem at a glance.
The alarm bell rang, but Fang Tingge was nowhere to be seen. There was something wrong.
"The Protector was too tired last night and is resting now. He specially asked me to come and check on the situation. Does Mr. Zhou have anything to do with the Protector? I can convey it to you." Ning Jie said with a smile.
"No, it's not a big deal. I heard the alarm bell ringing and I was worried that something had happened. Since Deputy Protector Ning has come forward, I think nothing will happen, so I can rest assured and won't disturb Deputy Protector Ning. I'll take my leave. !" Zhou Yiwei was afraid that Ning Jie might try to persuade him to stay, so he turned around and left, roaring away with his troops.
"Old fox!" Ning Jie looked at Yiwei Yiwei's back disappearing into the street and did not chase him. As long as Yiwei Yiwei did not join the Wu family soldiers, his mission would be completed.
He divided his troops into four groups, one to control the streets, and the other two to monitor Yiwei and the Wu family.
, and he led some of his people to the place where the Right Protector lived. The Wang family had surrendered, and the only place that could change was the Right Protector.
Tian Baijia is not a simple person.
Suddenly, a dense crowd of soldiers appeared from the right guard and surrounded Tang Dingdong and the Ping An soldiers she had brought. Murderous intent filled the air. Tian Baijia stood up from his chair. He was not tall, but when he stood up, he was almost the same as Tang Dingdong. .
"Isn't it strange, why am I not poisoned?" When Tian Baijia smiled, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he could hardly see his eyes, but the wisps of light emitted made people shudder.
The bright smile and the cold murderous intention formed an extremely strange contrast.
"You really underestimated Protector Tian!" Tang Dingdong sighed, "I should have considered it. There are countless poisonous insects and snakes in the swamp city. I should know a lot about poisons, but I am doing my best."
"I am surprised that you can bring so many people to see me. Among women, there are not many people with your courage. Apply volatile poison in gold coins, which is colorless and odorless. To be honest, if it were anything else, People may really fall into the trap, but unfortunately, my ability is related to poison, and no matter how powerful the poison is, it cannot be hidden from me."
"Tian Duhu, do you really want to go against the trend?" Tang Dingdong stared at Tian Baijia without any fear, as if he didn't know that he was a prisoner.
"Going against the trend? Do you think the trend is in your hands?" Tian Baijia smiled and shook his head, "Is the Wang family leader actually so easy to surrender? People become better with age, but you? You are too far behind."
"Have Tian Duhu ever heard a word?" Tang Dingdong's expression remained calm.
"What are you talking about?" Tian Baijia suddenly noticed something was wrong and looked in all directions warily.
"Any conspiracy and conspiracy are nothing in the face of absolute power!" Tang Dingdong said.
"Then give it a try. Whoever has the absolute power will kill a few of them!" Tian Baijia suddenly ordered, murderous intent overflowing. At this moment, a dark object was thrown from nowhere and hit the center of the hall. It rolled around a few times and stood firm.
Tian Baijia and the soldiers who rushed up felt as if they had been cast a restraining spell for an instant. They stood still and stared blankly at the head in the center, their whole bodies cold.
