"Elder Peng, why?" The high-ranking deacon was in a hurry, although he had already guessed the reason, he still couldn't accept this fact, and his heart was also full of unwillingness, because he and Peng Dahai were from the same door, if there was an elder of his own family sitting here, his life would be much better, and all aspects could be taken care of.

"It's my battle of will that killed Brother Xu, even if the alliance doesn't transfer me back and let me stay here, my heart will be tormented day and night, and there are traces of Elder Xu everywhere here, which makes me feel so uncomfortable...... It's good to go back, it's good to go back. Peng Dahai said with a painful and lonely face.

"Elder Peng has been on the front line for many years, taking the lead, leading in a good way, leading us to mine veins and defend against foreign enemies, during which he also killed a Jindan monk of the enemy, and made great achievements for Chongzhou, although it is a pity that Elder Xu fell, but in the battlefield, which day will not die?

Even if Elder Peng is responsible in this matter, then with the contributions he has made to Chongzhou over the years, it is enough to make up for it, why should the alliance punish you?"

Another wave of monks came, including a high-ranking deacon, who was also in the same relationship with Peng Dahai, and his face was full of anger at the moment, holding grievances for Peng Dahai.

"The order from the alliance only said that I was temporarily removed from my position, and there was no mention of punishment, which is already considered to be an open face to my net, you don't have to say much, and follow the new elder to work hard in the future and make some achievements. ”

Someone wanted to say something, but Peng Dahai strictly stopped him, and finally ordered someone to open the city gate and let Du Fan and Baili Qiu in.

Since Du Fan and Baili Qiu were the people Peng Dahai personally testified, and when they walked through the city gate, the relevant prohibitions did not fluctuate abnormally, so for the identities of the two of them, the high-ranking deacons in the stronghold were still convinced, but Peng Dahai's old team was full of anger and apprehension in their hearts, worried that the future would not be easy.

After Peng Dahai handed over a banner to Du Fan, he walked out of the Chinese army's tent without saying a word and left the city alone.

As the sun set, his shadow dragged on the ground, stretched for a long time, looking a little lonely and a little depressed......

......

Chongzhou Eighth Station Area, No. 38 Stronghold, in the main hall.

Du Fan sat on the main seat, and Baili Qiu sat on the auxiliary chair next to him.

There are more than 10 people below, who have cultivated to the great consummation of the foundation building period, and are high-ranking deacons in the city, holding important positions and outstanding abilities, and can take charge alone.

For a long time, these high-ranking deacons have gone through the baptism of blood and fire, the test of life and death, and they are used to strategizing and giving orders.

Du Fan swept over the people below with an expressionless face, his eyes were slightly sharp, but after a while, he smiled, and said in a gentle voice: "What are you thinking about and worrying about at this moment, I know it clearly in my heart, before talking about business, I might as well give you a reassuring pill first."

I know that all of you present are the descendants of Peng Dahai and Xu Muqing, but don't worry, I'm not interested in cutting off the previous henchmen, what were your previous positions, what were you responsible for, as they were, everything is as usual, and even the things you are doing in secret to collect money, I can turn a blind eye, as long as you don't do too much, I can ignore it. ”

Hearing this, the high-ranking deacons couldn't help but glance at each other a few times, and they all read surprise and suspicion in each other's eyes.

Du Fan continued: "But there is one thing, you listen to me, from now on, every word I say here is a holy decree, you must obey it unconditionally, without any doubts and prevarications, if there is any disobedience, the punishment will be death!"

When he said this, Du Fan's expression was cold, and his eyes were like knives, sweeping over everyone in the field.

A high-ranking deacon only felt a chill all over his body, and instantly felt a strong killing aura, and immediately lowered his head, trembling one by one, he had a strong sense of fear for the new leader.

"Whether you believe it or not, I've finished what I should say......" After a pause, Du Fan pointed to Baili Qiu and said: "By the way, I forgot to introduce you, this is Elder Bai, the second-in-command of our stronghold, when I am not there in the future, he will be the boss here, and he also has the right to kill, now I invite Elder Bai to speak, everyone is warmly welcome." ”

After finishing speaking, Du Fan actually took the lead in applauding.

Seeing this, the senior deacons were all stunned for a moment, and when they reacted, they immediately began to applaud in the same way, and a sparse applause suddenly echoed in the somewhat dull hall, and the atmosphere was indescribably different.

"Master, what do I say, can you stop messing with me......" Baili Qiu looked at Du Fan with a constipated expression, gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, thank you Elder Bai for your wonderful speech. Du Fan turned a blind eye to the transmission of Baili Qiu, and then took the lead in applauding.

The high-ranking deacons looked at each other, they really didn't know what the new leader was making trouble about, and the word speech was novel and strange enough, but Elder Bai hadn't said a word, thank you......

I wanted to think about it, but because of the obscenity of the new leader, they didn't dare to be disobedient, so they could only follow and slap their palms a few more times.

The corners of Baili Qiu's mouth twitched, and he couldn't figure it out, his master was already eighty years old, and he was also a powerful Jindan period Dzogchen monk, worshiped and admired by countless people, how could he sometimes like to play pranks like a young man, this is a typical disrespect for the old, it is too speechless......

Du Fan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's get down to business...... Who of you is the chief steward here? ”

"Returning to Elder Du, the junior should be the great butler in your mouth. After a little hesitation, an old man walked out of the crowd, first bowed deeply to Du Fan, and then replied respectfully.

"What's your name?"

"The younger generation Shi Liye. ”

Du Fan smiled, and said in a rather casual tone: "It turned out to be Xiao Shi, you can give me a brief report on the general situation in the city, including daily affairs, troop distribution, spirit ore mining progress, etc. ”

As soon as I heard the word "Xiaoshi", many people wanted to laugh, because among the monks in the foundation building period, Shi Liye's age is really not young, his hair is gray and sparse, his face is full of wrinkles, and his teeth are about to fall out. (To be continued.) )
