I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 300 Tens of millions of lives, what is the price?

Yama
As a teacher, he cut Yama with one sword.

When Wei Changtian heard Li Qi utter these two words, he immediately thought of what Old Zhangtou had said.

He once doubted whether the old Zhangtou was Zhang Benchu, but according to Qin Zhengqiu, the latter had died in full view.

Then he wondered if old Zhangtou was the swordsman who killed Zhang Benchu.

But after an analysis at the time, I felt that this possibility was extremely slim.

And now.
The pupils contracted suddenly uncontrollably, Wei Changtian blurted out and asked, almost out of composure:
"What's the last name of that swordsman?!"

"."

Li Qi was taken aback for a moment, looking at Wei Changtian with puzzled and thoughtful eyes.

However, he quickly gave an answer.

"Mr.Zhou."

"week?"

The fog that was thought to be unraveled closed again, Wei Changtian opened his mouth slightly, and asked again unwillingly.

"Your Majesty, are you sure his surname is Zhou?"

"determine."

Li Qi nodded affirmatively, then asked with a smile, "Young Master Wei, what's the matter?"

"nothing."

Wei Changtian took a deep breath, cupped his hands and apologized: "Your Majesty, the boy just remembered an old friend, and he lost his composure. I hope you will forgive me."

"It's okay."

Li Qi smiled and waved his hands. Although he knew that Wei Changtian seemed to know some inside information, he didn't ask any more, and just brought the topic back to the right track.

"Mr. Wei, now you should know why Tong'er invited you to Fengyuan."

"Since you can defeat Meng Shi with one move, you must be able to fight that monster when you think about it."

"I just don't know if the young master is willing to help save Feng Yuan's nearly ten million lives?"

"."

at last.

Turning his head to look at Li Qi with a sincere face, Wei Changtian did not rush to answer, but quickly calculated all the pros and cons of this matter in his mind.

Although Li Qi put himself in a very high position, it seemed that if he didn't act, he would be ignoring the lives of thousands of people.

But in reality, there will certainly not be so many deaths.

After all, if there is really no other way, Li Qi can order everyone in the city to move out of Fengyuan before July [-]th.

It is not even guaranteed that this work has already begun to be carried out secretly.

Of course, in just two months, there is a high probability that the people will be able to run away, but most of the things must not be moved.

The loss of these materials is second to none, and the whereabouts of so many people is a big problem.

After all, moving the capital is no joke.

The location of the country's capital is directly related to the country's destiny, and right now it is the time of the "Fengning War". If something goes wrong at this juncture, it is impossible to say that Dafeng will perish.

Even if there are no mistakes, it will definitely hurt Dafeng's vitality, let alone maintain the national war.

Therefore, from Wei Changtian's point of view, Li Qi may care about Fengyuan's nearly tens of millions of lives, but it is more based on the consideration of Dafeng's overall national destiny.

As for whether to agree or not.
Regardless of whether the monster is real Yan Luo or fake Yan Luo, it is a "magic strike" for him, a matter of 500 system points.

500 system points, almost the price of two mysterious weapons.

Not to mention the great royal family, even older families can freely pay this price.

And to be honest, I don't really take these 500 points seriously. After all, I used nearly 1500 points to save Liang Zhen's father and daughter.

Looking at it this way, it seems that this is just a trivial matter.

but
You must know that the conditions proposed by the strong party in the negotiation are never measured by "what you have paid".

Instead, bid according to "what the other party will lose" if the negotiation fails.

"emperor."

After thinking for a while, Wei Changtian finally said slowly under Li Qi's gaze:

"I might be able to put that monster to death."

"But I still have one thing I want to ask Your Majesty."

"Oh?"

Li Qi nodded with a half-smile: "Young Master Wei, it's okay to ask."

"Yes."

Wei Changtian cupped his hands and bowed his head, saluted again respectfully, and then asked calmly as if haggling with a vendor in the vegetable market:
"Your Majesty, what I want to ask is."

"Nearly tens of millions of human lives, plus the fate of a country, what is it worth?"

Half an hour later, the carriage surrounded by several riders drove out of the Dafeng Palace and went straight to the Dagenren's Yamen in the north of the city.

In the car, Li Wutong looked at the silent Wei Changtian, and after holding back for a long time, he finally couldn't help asking:
"Hey, Mr. Wei, have you promised the emperor?"

"Well, yes."

"Then, what did he promise you?"

"It's nothing."

Wei Changtian shook his head: "I have a heart for the common people in the world, so I decided to kill monsters for you for free."

"what?"

Obviously, this answer completely exceeded Li Wutong's expectations.

She opened her mouth wide and asked in a daze, "Really, really?"

Wei Changtian glanced at her: "Princess, what do you think?"

"I think"

Li Wutong replied subconsciously: "I don't think a person like you can do such a thing."

"Then you still ask?"

"you!"

Li Wutong was instantly so angry that he knew that Wei Changtian didn't want to tell him.

But this matter may be related to her own life, so after trying to adjust her mentality for a long time, she asked again in a wronged voice:
"Mr. Wei, can you tell me. Is it related to me?"

"Yes, yes." This time Wei Changtian answered quickly.

"what?"

A blush flew up his cheeks, and Li Wutong's small face suddenly turned into the same color as Apple, and he didn't know whether he was ashamed or annoyed, or both.

But before her rich mental activities were over, Wei Changtian continued to say:

"The condition for me to kill this monster is to tell your father not to marry you to me."

"."

"Wei Changtian! Who is going to marry you!!"

"You, you, you bully me!! You bastard!!!"

An indignant shout came from the carriage, and floated clearly and loudly into the ears of the men standing at the gate of the watchman's office.

One of them took a step forward with a strange expression, leaned over to the leader and asked in a low voice:

"Lord Pei, this is the voice of Her Royal Highness, right?"

"Just pretend you didn't hear it!"

The man in the black robe embroidered with gold patterns had a serious expression on his face, and he shouted seriously:

"Mr. Wei is from the Xuanjing Division. After seeing him, everyone will cheer me up. You can't offend Mr. Wei, but you must also show my demeanor of fighting people!"

"Yes!"

Everyone took the order in unison, but there was still someone who was quite worried and reminded again:

"My lord, but the princess just called out"

"Fuss!"

The man glared: "Young Master Wei and His Highness the Princess are not reckless fools like you who only know how to kill!"

"It's perfectly normal for men and women to have this kind of interest occasionally!"

"what!"

After a touch from the man, everyone suddenly realized.

"By the way, is this called beating, beating?"

"Flirting!"

"exactly!"

"It turns out that this is flirting!"

"Then, since Her Royal Highness scolded so fiercely, I think she should have a deep affection for Mr. Wei."

"Justified! Really reasonable!"
