Chapter 24 Shadow Knife(2/2)
"What's going on now?"
Xu Sheng asked in a deep voice: "How long can our Xu Mansion probably hold on?"
"Master, I can't last much longer, three days at most."
Lu Base said: "It could be tonight, or even the next moment!"
Xu Sheng couldn't help but remain silent.
"Fortunately, the master had the foresight to send our family and others to a safe city before!"
Lu Ba added: "Just me, there may be no way out! Unless we wait for the imperial army, but now it seems that there is little hope..."
Yes, the current situation is very bad.
The Shadow Blade Gate is wreaking havoc in the city!
Xu Sheng and other big families can only hold on with their troops!
As a person who has been wealthy for most of his life.
Of course Xu Sheng also raised a group of armed forces of his own.
In the past few decades, after acquiring huge amounts of wealth, Xu Sheng has always attached great importance to buying people's hearts!
He won the hearts of many knights and knights!
The general approach is, of course, to make the other party owe you a favor!
All kinds of favors owed to oneself!
The heavier the debt, the better!
In the prosperous times, there were some people with high martial arts skills who would have no choice but to use force to break the law.
But I don’t want to become a homeless person on the run!
Or you are in financial embarrassment but don’t want to break the law and rob your home!
The saying that a penny can stump a hero refers to the prosperous era.
Basically, when meeting such people, Xu Sheng will win over them.
Throw money at it to show mercy!
Use your connections in the yamen to help him solve his problems and show kindness!
Then hire them as caregivers to protect yourself!
Over the past few decades, Xu Sheng has given them a good life, helped them solve all kinds of troubles, provided them with various resources for martial arts training, provided a good living environment for their families, and found good teachers for their children to study with!
These things will be buried in a person's heart.
Therefore, when troubled times came, these people also tried their best to protect Xu Sheng!
After all, most people still repay their kindness!
Of course, when the troubled times first came, Xu Sheng had already asked his trusted confidants to send his heirs to cities where the world was still safe.
Although he also has many descendants hidden in other parts of the world.
But I definitely can't ignore my own people in Qingyang City.
At the beginning, although Qingyang City was in chaos, Xu Sheng remained unmoved under the protection of the armed forces raised by his family.
But who would have thought that war would break out all over the world later!
The court has too much time to take care of itself!
Various Jianghu sects took advantage of the chaos and emerged!
Now Qingyang City has fallen even more.
Xu Sheng had not yet had time to take his wives and concubines out of Qingyang City!
Because the Shadow Blade Gate's attack came unexpectedly.
Xu Sheng didn't expect it either.
Now it's trapped.
Soon, Lu Ba left.
"How to do how to do?"
"Why is everything going so well suddenly turned into chaos?"
"How can the people of Shadow Blade Sect be so cruel?"
"Can we escape?"
Xu Sheng's wives and concubines nearby also looked pale.
The world changes!
No one expected it!
No one can escape the flood!
"We can only wait and see how things change."
Xu Sheng also frowned and said in a deep voice: "I have sent someone to contact the master of the Shadow Blade Sect to see if there is any room for recovery. If not..."
Chapter completed!
