Chapter 2237 Not in the city!
Although he saw the unkind faces of these people, Cheng Yu didn't say anything. He was not interested in dealing with these people, and he had no need.
Of course, he knew very well what these people were thinking, but there was no need for him to give them face.
Qinghai naturally saw the faces of these people, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, these people really didn't give him face as the city lord. In this case, he also wanted to use this to remind them.
No matter how great they are, they are just guests he invited. Since they are guests, they must obey him. If these guests cannot be used by him, then there is no need for him to spend such a high price to support these people.
But Cheng Yu is different. As long as he has something to do, whenever he goes to see him, Cheng Yu will politely agree. Obviously Cheng Yu is much more knowledgeable and gives him face as the city lord.
And what he wants is exactly this kind of guest, so he wants to raise Cheng Yu's status in the city lord's palace and let them take a look. If these guests want to be treated by him, they must first hear about it.
"Everyone, now that the east gate is under attack, it is very likely that Rucheng has launched another attack on our Qingmu City. However, this attack is far more dangerous than half a year ago, so I have called all the guests so late.
I also hope that everyone can help Qingmu City solve this crisis. Let’s leave now!” Qinghai did not give everyone a chance to refuse.
He knew very well that if he spoke to these people in a negotiating tone, the east gate would have been smashed, and they would continue to shirk the blame.
But he didn't give them this chance now. He explained the situation and led the way directly.
Cheng Yu didn't say anything and was the first to follow Qinghai.
The others looked at each other. Although everyone was a little dissatisfied with Qinghai's attitude tonight, they were guests invited by Qinghai after all, and the resources they usually needed were provided by Qinghai.
Unless they have to, they don't really want to fall out with Qinghai.
After all, before they became guest ministers in Qinghai, they were all casual cultivators. As casual cultivators, they knew very well how difficult it was for them to gather enough resources for their cultivation.
Especially in their current state, as their strength continues to improve, they need more and more resources. If there is no reliable place to provide resources, they will not have the good life now.
Because they need a lot of resources, when they are doing casual cultivation, they spend most of their time looking for resources. Even if they collect some resources, it is not enough for them to practice for a long time.
But since they became Qinghai's guests, they have never had the problem of resource shortage. This is why they are willing to be guests in a small city lord's palace even though they have such strength.
Because the life of casual cultivators is really difficult, they now live a happy life. No matter what resources they need for their practice, Qinghai will try their best to satisfy them.
Therefore, for this reason alone, they do not want to lose this iron rice bowl.
Everyone just can't get used to Cheng Yu's always kind-hearted appearance, especially now that they see that Qinghai is also very kind to Cheng Yu. I heard that Qinghai has prepared more and better resources for Cheng Yu than them, which makes them
Even more unhappy.
However, now, no matter how dissatisfied they are, they still want to give Qinghai this face...
Of course, as for whether to take action at that time, it depends on whether the opponent is strong. If the opponent is too strong, they do not want to risk their lives for a few resources.
After all, no matter how good the resources are, it is true that you have to live and enjoy them.
Especially when they are in their position, it is very life-saving.
"Since Qinghai thinks so highly of this person surnamed Hu, then if anything happens, just let this guy step forward and take care of him!" A guest minister from the early Mahayana stage seemed to have already read through everyone's thoughts, so he smiled with a smile on his face.
said.
"Mr. Tang is right. Since he likes to be in the limelight so much, let him go!" The others smiled knowingly, and Tang Keqing's words really touched their hearts.
Since the person named Hu has more and better resources than them, he should put in more effort.
When Cheng Yu and the others came to the east gate, Qinghai's face was ashen, because the east gate was full of corpses of city guards. But fortunately, the city gate did not suffer much damage, as long as more people were sent to guard the gate.
.
"Come here!" Qinghai shouted.
A guard hurried over, cupped his fists and said, "City Lord!"
"Tell me! What is going on? Are people from Rucheng attacking?" Qinghai said with a cold face.
"City Lord, we don't know. Everyone who was guarding the east gate was dead. When we rushed over, we didn't see the people who attacked the city gate!" The guard said helplessly.
"So these people have already entered the city?" Qinghai's face turned even worse after hearing the guard's words.
Although they didn't know the identity of the enemy, they were already very confident that they were sent by Xiao Hai. This Xiao Hai was really getting more and more arrogant, and he actually sent people to attack the city so openly.
"I don't know, maybe they have already left!" the guard thought for a while and said.
He felt that if these people entered the city, they would definitely be dead, so he felt that if these people attacked the city, they could only save their lives by leaving quickly.
"Mr. Hu, what do you think? Have these people entered the city or gone back?" Qinghai asked with a frown.
"It's impossible for them to go back like this. If they just attacked the east gate and ran away, there would be no need to make such a big noise. So in Hu's opinion, these people should have entered the city." Cheng Yu
said.
Of course he knew that these people were in the city, but it didn't matter whether what he said was true or false at this time, because he was confident enough that no one could catch them.
"I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case. Maybe today these people are just here to inquire about a fact, and there is no need for them to enter the city. Besides, even if they enter the city, what can they do? Is it possible that they can still take us Qingmu?
Will everyone in the city be killed?
Furthermore, since they came and left quickly, it means that there were not many people attacking the city today. In this case, if they entered the city, they would definitely die, and their identity would be easily exposed.
.
So in my opinion, they must have killed someone and left directly. Because of this, they can use this to confuse us.
