Chapter 105: Choice

ha Dragon Realm for support. It was also a bit of self-interest on his part, not wanting the First True Person of their sect to be trapped here as well.Then what nowWei Xun was suddenly reminded of th...Xi Zi Chu hurried back to the City Lord's Mansion.

>

The City Lord's Mansion is also known as the temporary mansion.

The house is divided into the front and back courtyards. The front courtyard serves as an office, while the back courtyard houses Xi Mu Nan's family.

>

The ancestral home of the Xi family was not in Jia City, but located in the suburbs. With a large population, it resembled a town. If Jia City is considered one of the eight towns under its jurisdiction, then with the addition of the Xi family's land, there should be nine towns.

Stepping into a secluded study at the front of the house, one finds Master Liu engrossed in work at his desk, furiously scribbling away.

As soon as he saw him, Xi Zichu gritted out three words from between his teeth: "Master Liu!"

“Oh, it’s the young master,” Liu Shisheng raised his head to glance at him, then lowered his head again: “The City Lord has gone out, who knows when he will be back. You should wait for him in the inner courtyard.”

Xi Zi Chu walked up to him and pressed her hand down on the piece of paper he was writing on. “No, I’m the one who found you.”

Sir Liu pondered for a moment, then placed his brush inverted on the inkstone slab and looked at Xi Zi Chu: "What brings you here, young master"

“Let me ask you, do you know what's going on in the city!”

Mr. Liu first stood up, walked to the door, closed it, and then turned back to look at Xi Zi Chu: "Did you know"

Xi Zi Chu only felt that the qigong cultivation he had practiced in Dongwang Valley was completely useless, and impatiently said: "I ask you if you know!"

“Of course I know.” said Master Liu.

"Very well, then you'd better be prepared to apologize to my father!" Xi Zi Chu, enraged, was about to make a move.

"The city lord went out in person, it was for this matter." Liu Shiye said again.

Xi Zi Chu withdrew his hand, looking surprised: "Did my father know about this too"

Liu Shiye glanced at him nonchalantly: "Otherwise, do you think I could mobilize the city guards"

Xi Zi Chu's anger surged as he departed.

The pig bone face is a scourge to the people. He can still bear with murderous intent and first leads him to attack Jiang Wang, because he has already made preparations to kill this person after the fact, letting him use everything before his death. There's nothing wrong with that.

But he couldn't understand Shi Munan and Liu Shisheng's reactions to this plague.

“You know full well this is the plague, yet you fail to respond in time. This is dereliction of duty! This is harboring poison! This is murder against hundreds of thousands of people across the entire region!”

Looking at Liu Shisheng's calm and composed demeanor, he wished he could kill him with a single palm: "It must be you, the treacherous one, who deceived my father!"

"What do you want to do"

At this time, the door was pushed open.

The only person in Jiacheng who could directly barge into a conversation between Xi Zi Chu and Liu Shishu when they were locked in private was naturally Jiacheng's chairman, Mu Nan.

"Father!" Xi Zi Chu suddenly turned back, her voice agitated: "Don't you know how dangerous the plague is Don't you know what will happen if it breaks out"

Xi Muran looked at him silently until he restrained himself, then asked, "Do you know why I kept it from you"

> Why

"Because you're such a pathetic, useless idiot right now!"

>

During the pauses in their conversation, Master Liu quietly slipped out and closed the door again. This showed his awareness of proper conduct as a master.

Xi Zi Chu felt shocked and angry. He didn't understand how he could be so pathetic now.

"Indeed, some people have contracted the plague. What do you think we should do" Xi Munan asked his son. "Proclaim it widely so that everyone knows Cause panic among the hundreds of thousands in this city Throw the entire world into chaos"

"Then it would give the court the perfect excuse to intervene and push our Xi family aside like trash, allowing them to regain control of Jiac City"

What's going on in that head of yours Are you saying your father committed murder

“Jiacheng is the ancestral fief of my Xi family for generations. The people of Jiacheng are the foundation of my Xi family, my subjects! Would I murder them”

Xi Muran swept away the fatigue between his brows and glared at Xi Zi Chu, "We did indeed seal off news and prohibit outsiders. But this is for the greater good! All corpses who died from the plague were disposed of in designated locations. All those infected were confined to their rooms. We have done our best! Otherwise, do you think I would still be running around outside at this time Do you think I don't care about them"

"But..." Xi Zi Chu fell silent for a long time before replying, "The epidemic is still expanding, isn't it"

“This is just temporary!” Xi Munan became somewhat agitated: “I should have known that Bai Gu Dao had no good intentions. That pig-headed man traveled thousands of miles to our Jia City, he definitely didn't come just to eat a few people. This plague must be the conspiracy of Bai Gu Dao!”

“We should inform the public about this and work together to overcome these difficulties! The epidemic is expanding, Father!”

“The common people are ignorant and foolish, ignorance is a kind of happiness! And what can they do against the White Bone Path The most urgent task is to find out the intentions of the White Bone Path. Find out their hidden manpower. To deal with the demons of the White Bone Path, we can appeal to the imperial masters, but the resettlement of Jiacheng people must be done by us!”

Xi Zi Chu looked at his father, for the first time feeling very strange about him.

"So your plan is to let them just sit there and wait"

Xi Muran looked at his son and finally sighed: "My son, this is the reason why I don't want you to know about this. You practice medicine and heal people in Dongwanggu, while the poison path kills and harms people. Dongwanggu cultivates both medicine and poison, but ultimately focuses on medicine. For patients, your cultivation prevents you from standing idly by. But you are the future head of the Xi family, and you must consider the interests of my Xi family first... As a father, I don't want you to make such a choice!"

Xi Zi Chu painfully closed his eyes: "But now the time has finally come to make a choice, hasn't it"

“Our strategy for maintaining stability remains unchanged, but now that you know about the epidemic, you can help our doctors with treatment and see if there's a way to prevent or cure it. As long as the overall plan doesn't change and we don't cause panic among the people, all city physicians will be at your disposal. You have full authority over this matter!”

“In all the relevant medical records I have read, the first measure to prevent an epidemic from spreading is to isolate the inside and outside, prohibiting travel. Then comes the point-by-point, surface-by-surface clearing. There is no other way!”

"After cultivating for so many years, you should use your extraordinary power to solve this!" Xi Munan said in an unquestionable tone: "No matter what, the Xi family has been operating for five generations, and we cannot destroy it with our own hands! Otherwise, a hundred years later, both of us will be ashamed to see our ancestors!"

This hit Xi Zichu.

For centuries, his family history had weighed upon him like a mountain, a tangible burden that made it impossible to break free.

He didn't stay silent for too long this time.

"Curfew for two months because a murder was committed by someone who used pork bones as their face!"

"At most a month and a half, any longer and there will be panic."

“From now on, mobilize as much extraordinary power as we can. I will be in unified command, and ordinary people will be unable to resist the plague's onslaught.”

“Besides the necessary guards, the rest are at your disposal.” Xi Munan thought for a moment and added, “Not Master Liu, though.”

All plague corpses must be cremated.

"You may decide that for yourself."

After a moment of silence, seeing that Xi Zi Chu had nothing more to say, Xi Mu Nan waved his hand and said, "Go!"
