Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 1811: Abnormal Silence
The Su family's mansion was very lively. The warriors from the Su family, the Wang family and the city lord's palace were all gathered here at this time.
Especially the warriors from the Suwang family who had just returned. Under the leadership of Wang Xiao, they had just looted the ghost painter's mansion again.
This time was different from the previous casual viewing. They did not let go of any valuable or worthless items in the ghost painter's mansion. In the ghost painter's mansion, except for the houses and buildings that could not be moved, everything else that could be moved was taken away.
With the empty mansion left, Wang Xiao had people pour fire oil everywhere and burned the two mansions completely.
The area around the mansion where the ghost family was located was relatively empty, so the fire was only concentrated in the mansion. There is something different about painters. During this period, they continued to expand outwards and included all the outside towns and cities into the family.
Therefore, when the painter's fire burned rapidly, the surrounding towns were also implicated in it. Of course, the holders of these markets have either joined forces with the painter, or are directly under the painter's command.
Not to mention their sensitive identities, they don't dare to come forward now. Even if they have nothing to do with the painter, they don't dare to go head-to-head with the current Su Wang family. Therefore, when the entire painting mansion was burned down, a large area around it was also implicated. Those people did not even dare to do things like put out the fire.
Some small families and small forces that were originally close to the ghost painter are now in danger and are hiding in their homes and dare not go out.
Today's Su family, Wang family and City Lord's Mansion, although they have just experienced a war, each family has suffered certain losses. But now it is peaceful, and people have unconsciously put the tragic fight last night and the things that were against each other completely behind their minds.
People are like this sometimes. They can quickly build up hatred, but also easily forget it, especially when the hatred is not for personal reasons, but for public reasons.
There is no enmity between these people. The previous fights and battles were also due to their different positions. Now that everyone has the same position, the root cause of their opposition is no longer there, and everyone can naturally let go of these emotions.
Of course, another important reason for this situation is that both the Su and Wang families have benefited a lot. Even the most ordinary warriors gained a lot of benefits when they searched the ghost painter's mansion again.
After all, they were once a powerful force in the Xuanwu Empire, and this vast city was an important gathering point for their two families in the south. Even some ordinary decorations in the mansion were not of ordinary quality.
Maybe people like Su Jian and Wang Xiao don't take it seriously, but to ordinary warriors, even those tables, chairs and benches are made of precious green iron wood. In addition, there are some weapons stored in the mansion, as well as some medicines commonly used by warriors, etc. Everything placed outside is sought after by ordinary warriors.
Although the warriors on the side of the city lord's palace did not benefit, they did not care. These people took action at the most critical moment and had a huge impact on the battle situation. As a result, the ghost painter betrayed his own people and used them as cannon fodder, turning them into stepping stones for the ghost painter to evacuate safely.
This hatred has already overtaken the others, and has made the warriors in the city lord's palace hate the ghost painter so much. It is already great for them to be able to join forces with the Suwang family to take revenge on the ghost painter.
Looking at the peaceful atmosphere around the family square, Su Jian also showed a rare relaxed smile on his face. He turned around and said, "Wang Xiao, are you too lazy? Why would you burn an empty mansion?"
Pouring his lips indifferently, Wang Xiao said proudly: "Why can't we burn it? Is it an eyesore if we leave it there? Since we are going to do it, of course we have to do it thoroughly. And I have to let people see us. With a clear view of the current situation in Kuocheng, ghost painters no longer exist.”
Frowning slightly, Su Jian said, "Well, now that you have burned, do ghost painters really no longer exist? Can their hidden dangers really be solved in this way?"
Wang Xiao said confidently: "Of course it can't be solved like this, but it will make those who were very close to the ghost painter stay in peace, and let those who have flirted with the ghost painter see clearly the current situation."
Seeing Wang Xiao's unrepentant look, Su Jian smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "The limelight you have caused can now be seen by everyone in the city, but except for the small families and forces you mentioned, we can't do it for the time being. If you dare to mess around, what else can you gain?
But look, until now, is there a force that belongs to the ghost painters and has come to us to express its submission? "
Hearing what Su Jian said, Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment unconsciously. He recalled it carefully, and his face became increasingly ugly.
A lot of time has passed since last night's victory, until the Ghost Painter was looted, and then he completely burned down the two mansions with a fire, and now at this moment.
However, although some forces have come to show their goodwill during this period, there are not any of the families and forces that originally surrendered to the ghost painter.
After thinking of this, Wang Xiao's face became even more ugly, and he couldn't help but ask: "How could this happen? Are those people crazy or stupid?"
Shaking his head helplessly, Su Jian sighed feebly, and then said softly: "Why can't you understand such a simple truth? Do you know what the biggest problem is now?"
"Where does this go?" Wang Xiao said impatiently. He didn't like the other party to directly blame the issue on himself.
Seeing Su Jian looking at him with burning eyes, the two looked at each other for a moment. Wang Xiao immediately lost his battle and begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, tell me, what is my problem?"
Looking outside with a serious look, Su Jian saw the peaceful atmosphere in his eyes, making it difficult for him to show any joy.
While retracting his gaze, he said solemnly: "The Su family and the Wang family are completely proud after this battle. Although the City Lord's Mansion has suffered a lot of losses, it has now united with us. From this perspective, the City Lord's Mansion is also naturally Be the winning side.
What I'm worried about is that this kind of victory will go to their head. Look at these people outside now. How can they be nervous at all? Even you, the leader of the Wang family, have forgotten that ghost. The painter is just hiding now, and they are lurking in the broad city. "
Su Jian's words had already touched Wang Xiao, but he didn't want to admit it, and continued with Su Jian's words: "I have mobilized people to go out and search, including those families and forces that have just taken refuge.
When these people want to show their sincerity, they will definitely spare no effort to do things. With such a big net spread out, I don't believe that the ghost painters can't be found. "
"This is the problem." Su Jian spoke directly and said: "Everyone is unconsciously showing an optimistic attitude in their hearts now. Whether it is for the ghost painter or the development of the Kuocheng situation, there is such an atmosphere. , this kind of atmosphere is most likely to breed failure.”
"Are you worried too much? You must know that we are winning now, not their ghost painters." Wang Xiao said dissatisfied.
Su Jian reminded: "There is no news about the ghost painter yet. I don't have high hopes for the results of the city-wide search. And you seem to have forgotten an existence. The ghost painter has always been against us, but now There is another force lurking in the dark, and that force cannot be underestimated. "
"You mean, the Lin family?!" Wang Xiao reacted instantly and blurted out.
Just at this moment, someone knocked lightly on the door outside. Wang Xiao was irritated and said coldly: "Who is it?"
After a pause, a man's voice came from outside, saying: "The people sent by the family sent back the news on time."
Upon hearing this, Su Jian said without hesitation: "Let them come in quickly."
The door was pushed open, and three warriors walked in in no particular order, one from the Su family, one from the Wang family, and one from the City Lord's Mansion.
The three of them bowed and saluted immediately after entering the room. Wang Xiao interrupted them directly and said: "No need to talk nonsense, just tell me what you can gain."
When the Wang family warrior saw his leader speaking, he hurriedly said: "Three of us, plus those small forces who volunteered to help us search, conducted a comprehensive search within the city. Although it was only a cursory search, no trace was found. in……"
He glanced at Su Jian furtively and continued: "Including the clues that Commander Su Jian ordered to investigate the Lin family, there are no clues at all. They seem to have evaporated from the city.
Next, we will follow the original arrangement and prepare to send more manpower to conduct careful searches of noteworthy places in the city and never let go of anything suspicious. "
In fact, only one person needs to come back to get such news, but now that the three companies have just cooperated, in order not to show any differences, each of the three companies has someone responsible for communicating.
Looking at the Wang family warrior, Su Jian asked: "What is the situation in the city now? I mean, is there anything worth noting in the city? No matter what family or force it is, you should pay close attention to any movement."
The Wang family warrior pondered for a moment and then replied affirmatively: "The entire city is quiet. No matter the forces, families, chambers of commerce, or some larger shops, they all seem to be extremely calm."
After hearing this person's answer, Su Jian turned to look at Wang Xiao. At this time, Wang Xiao was no longer as optimistic as before. Looking back at Su Jian, he said in a gloomy tone: "It seems that there is something special hidden under this special calm. What are we going to do next?" manage?"
