A moment later, Ziyun City was on top of the hundreds of feet high wall.
Chen Xiao was condescending, overlooking the bottom of the city wall, and saw a dense area, mortals and low-cost monks living together, like ants, coming and going, a miserable scene.
Faintly, his eyes pierced through the clouds and traveled thousands of miles away, and the same scene kept appearing.
A large number of mortals, like refugees, temporarily lived in the surrounding areas of Ziyun City, and built temporary tents or stone houses, just to survive.
Chen Xiao looked dignified, and sighed: "It's not easy for ordinary people, and it's probably just a phenomenon of troubled times."
At this time, Qin Zhenyun, who had white beard and hair, stood silently beside Chen Xiao, with a gloomy expression, but said, "I'm afraid it will only be more miserable. Now it's just rumors, and it's already causing trouble for the people, and treachery is everywhere. If one day, If the demonic invasion really comes, I am afraid that the human race will be destroyed, and the worst of them must be these mortals."
Qin Zhenyun's worry is very real. People's minds change, especially in times of chaos.
In order to survive and see the sun tomorrow, many people and monks have completely abandoned morality and become evil people who know their instincts.
What the two see before their eyes is just a microcosm.
Chen Xiao sighed, and said: "Old Qin's words are correct, but what should be done, I have to ask all the elders to discuss it."
"Please don't worry, deputy city lord, unless it is absolutely necessary, I will try my best to protect these mortals outside the city." Qin Zhenyun clasped his fists and said solemnly.
What he said was categorical, and he also expressed his attitude to Chen Xiao, which is very important.
Now the huge Qin family can be said to have been completely bound together with Chen Xiao, one prospers and one loses, the Qin family will obey any move of Chen Xiao, as long as it is not out of line.
Chen Xiao also heard the mysterious meaning in it, and asked, "What if it is a last resort?"
The so-called last resort is the juncture of life and death, and we must be prepared with both hands.
This sentence stopped Qin Zhenyun directly. He opened his mouth, and after a while, he said hesitantly, "If it really comes to that time, the Ziyun City should be the most important thing. Deputy City Lord, don't worry about it." Use your emotions, think twice."
Qin Zhenyun sincerely advised, his eyes were full of seriousness, for fear that Chen Xiao would do something wrong.
After all, everything in Ziyun City is the most important foundation.
Chen Xiao was silent. Although Qin Zhenyun's words were not so pleasant to the ear, they were telling the truth, and he didn't say any empty words to deceive him. This alone made him very relieved.
"You're right. I'll make a choice. By the way, what do the other elder families in the city think of me as the deputy city lord?" Chen Xiao asked.
"This..." Qin Zhenyun felt a little embarrassed.
"Speak, tell the truth."
Qin Zhenyun carefully glanced at Chen Xiao, a little nervous, and said: "Although everyone flatters you on the surface, most of them just look at Zihou Lord's face, and only think that the position of the city lord is a vain position."
Chen Xiao had such an expression as expected, but he was not angry, but calm.
"Aren't you angry?" Qin Zhenyun asked.
"Why are you angry? It's just a name. At the beginning, Master Zihou just said it casually, so don't pay too much attention to it." Chen Xiao laughed.
As he said, he didn't really care that much.
What he really cares about is the attitude of the other elder families.
"Yes." Qin Zhenyun smiled apologetically and didn't say much.
People's hearts are the most unpredictable. As an old man, he dared not really gamble, so he could only keep silent.
