"I'm very curious as to how the two of you formed such a rift," Qingchen felt a little puzzled: "Logically speaking, we are both Master's people, shouldn't we unite more?"
"Unite with him?" Li Dongze sneered: "I have known him for more than ten years now. In these ten years, he has let me go 51 times. Should I unite with him?"
Qing Chenxin said that it turned out to be a problem left over from history.
"Jiang Xiaotang was also adopted by master, right? Su Xingzhi seems to be an orphan adopted by master, so why doesn't Jiang Xiaotang know Su Xingzhi?" Qingchen was curious.
"Su Xingzhi is not a child adopted by the boss," Li Dongze glanced at Qingchen: "His identity is a bit more special. The boss fostered him in other people's homes when he was a child. Except for a few of us orphans who were first adopted by the boss, no one else
Know that he exists."
Qingchen was curious, did Su Xingzhi have any other unique life experience?
Li Dongze asked curiously: "Little boss, aren't you supposed to be at Banshan Manor? How did you end up here? Can you enter and leave Li's Manor freely?"
"Well," Qingchen did not answer the question, but asked: "How did Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen perform?"
"Now I have given them part of the account recovery business," Li Dongze said. "I want to see their capabilities. It seems pretty good so far. Zhang Tianzhen has a thick face and a dark heart, so he is suitable for our line of work. However, Hu Xiaoniu frankly
Being magnanimous and fair in allocating benefits to subordinates will make you more convincing to the public. When the young boss brings these two partners to Hengshe, he is quite good at judging people."
"Why should we give this business?" Qingchen was puzzled.
"Because this is actually the most difficult thing," Li Dongze said: "If it is really just a fight between societies, then you only need to have the courage. But the account recovery business is different. The person you are collecting money from may not necessarily be a bad person.
, or they may be good people who are just forced to pay usurious loans."
When Li Dongze said this, Qingchen could understand the difficulty of this business.
It is easy to use evil to defeat evil, but it is a test of mind and means to use evil to defeat good.
Li Dongze said: "Don't worry about them, small bosses. If they can't pass this test, they won't be able to enter this industry. Put away your conscience first, and understand how helpless this world is before talking about it."
"Then what did you do when you first faced this kind of business?" Qingchen was curious about what kind of person Li Dongze was.
Li Dongze thought for a while and said: "The most difficult debt to collect before was when an old man borrowed money to save his wife's life. As a result, although the medical expenses were collected, the wife could not be saved."
"Are you going to get this money back?" Qingchen was curious.
"I'm coming back," Li Dongze said: "I sold their son to the Qing family as a servant, and the Qing family gave me the money. Little boss, you may expect me to tell you a very clever way to get money without harming anyone."
They, but there is no solution for this kind of thing. Hengshe's interest rate is already the lowest among federal societies, only one level higher than the five major banks. I can't turn the society into a charity foundation. I'm not making any excuses.
, Life is like this. If you think this is wrong, then work with your boss to fundamentally change the world. Until that day comes, I don’t want to be a good person."
Qingchen was thoughtful.
He put on Zard's appearance again and walked out of the Never Ending Club.
Li Dongze looked at the young man's back and didn't know what he was thinking.
He glanced at his phone and then sent a voice message: "Did you see the photo I sent? You didn't take a group photo."
…
…
Countdown to 162:00:00.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, Li Ke had already started running with the students behind him and the elite Li family members who had just returned to the mountainside manor.
There are eight students, 12 elite members of Li's army, plus Li Yinuo and Nan Gengchen, a total of 22 people.
Each of them had heard from the Privy Council what was going to happen, they just didn't know when it would happen.
In the Mid-Levels Manor, when they passed by a certain courtyard, the sound of footsteps would startle the people in the courtyard, so that many people gathered around to watch.
Li Shu and others are different from Li Ke. They are not hothouse flowers who are still in school, but real rising stars in this family who have seen the wind and waves outside.
So when everyone saw these people in the crowd, they couldn't help but murmur in their hearts.
Nowadays, the outside world is saying that people like Li Shu left the army to return to Banshan Manor to attend funerals.
Many people in the Li family know that the old man is indeed in poor health, but Li Shu and others are not mourning. They clearly came back because of the teacher!
This makes people think deeply, what can the teacher teach?
In fact, it is not difficult to guess. A teacher from the martial arts hall has the Privy Council endorse him. Apart from orthodox practice methods, what else can he do? Apart from that, there is no martial artist who can make such a powerful consortium mobilize troops and mobilize people.
.
You must know that for many members of the consortium, the ability to practice is secondary. The extra life span brought by orthodox cultivation methods is what many people dream of, and the increase in life span without sequelae is what many people dream of!
In fact, there is a corresponding record in the booklet recording the Zhunti method: The Zhunti method is a special secret method that connects the five departments. Every person who is initiated and practices the Zhunti method will increase their life span by twenty-one years.
Self-aware.
In other words, from the moment Hu Xiaoniu, Zhang Tianzhen, and Li Tongyun completed the first Little Zhoutian and received the initiation, their life spans directly increased by 21 years. As for the specific increase, 21 years is the bottom line, and all the above are
It depends on personal qualifications and spiritual practice strength.
This orthodox practice can make people crazy.
But the problem is, the orthodox practice method is too rare. Where did the young instructor find it?
At this time, someone remembered that someone had investigated the instructor named Qing Chen when he first came here, and said he was a genetic warrior next to Li Changqing.
Can a person with an orthodox spiritual practice inject genetic medicine into himself?!
However, the Privy Council will definitely not be mistaken.
As a result, Qingchen's origin and identity became even more mysterious.
After finishing his run, Li Ke walked directly to Zhixin Villa.
There were two fat guys waiting there early at the door. When they saw Li Ke, they asked: "When we were kneeling outside the door last night, were you in the Qiuye Villa?"
Li Ke glanced at the two of them: "Yeah."
One of the fat guys asked again: "Then why didn't you persuade me to open the door? Do you know that we knelt for more than two hours!"
Li Ke didn't retort for the sake of a quick talk. He just said calmly: "It's time to go to class."
"Traitor, the Li family's children did not unite with their brothers and sisters, but instead helped an outsider," the little fat man said coldly.
Li Ke looked over calmly: "Go and ask your parents if you dare to go to the Privy Council and say such things?"
Yesterday, Li Ke suffered a great injustice in the school.
Today, those classmates still treated him coldly, but for some reason, Li Ke didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
At this moment, ten more people came outside the school, and they were Li Shu, lieutenants and school officers who had returned from the army.
Li Shu glanced at the little fat man and said with a smile: "Remember, if anyone dares to embarrass the eight people running with us again, I will come and hang him on a tree and beat him. When I go back and tell your parents, just say it's me, Li Shu."
Said."
The little fat man shuddered. This Li Shu was notorious in City 18 in the past few years, and he was also lawless in the school.
The Privy Council issued a special instruction not to allow him to enter the school again.
Uncle Li's parents were also cruel and sent him directly to the Federal Army, where he started as a low-level soldier.
The other children of the Li family all studied in military academies for a few years, and became lieutenants when they came out, and became captains within a few years.
As for Li Shu, after years of working in the army step by step and becoming a lieutenant, he calmed down his temperament, and then returned to the family selection field, and even transferred him to his uncle's staff.
In a consortium, transferring a child to one of your own is a very clear signal: the family is ready to promote you quickly.
After several years of experience, Li Shu is no longer the reckless conglomerate he was before.
But this kind of person with a vicious reputation is the most intimidating to the little fat man.
Li Shu smiled and patted Li Ke on the shoulder. From now on, we are all brothers in the same discipline. Speaking of which, you are still the senior brother. If you have anything, just tell us. We are the best at fighting.
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, how could he become the senior brother? He was obviously the youngest among them.
However, Li Shu and others did not say anything, and left after warning the classmates.
Mathematics teacher Zhou Xingwen, who was hiding in the school, had a headache: "Why is this bastard Li Shu back? It seems that he is planning to take Qingchen as his teacher?!"
…
…
In the morning, Qingchen walked slowly towards Longhu, where the old man had been waiting for a long time.
The old man heard his footsteps and sighed without looking back: "You really don't intend to let go of any of the arowanas in this lake."
The old man's sad voice seemed to be saying, you knights really don't do anything.
Qingchen laughed and said, "I'm giving it to the next generation of the Li family. I have no selfish motives!"
The old man asked curiously: "I heard that after you ate the nine dragon fish, the bones in your body roared like thunder, and your hair fell off and then grew back. It was like a god coming to the world. Is that true?"
Qingchen was stunned for a moment: "That's what that guy Li Ke said?"
"Well," the old man admitted in disguise. Li Ke was the descendant of the Li family who he specially arranged to inherit the knight's path, because only Li Ke saw his hair falling out and growing again: "But you don't have to worry about anything. I asked
When he was talking about these things, he struggled for a long time before speaking. He also told me that this was the last time and I couldn't live up to your trust...turn his elbows outward."
Qingchen asked curiously: "Why are you so persistent that you want the Li family to produce a generation of knights?"
"I am not the only one who is persistent, but generations have been so persistent," the old man sighed: "The ancestors are knights. Li Yingyun, the father of the founder of the Li family, has such a figure in the family, and Li family has it in his blood.
With romantic genes.”
"Romantic?" Qingchen wondered.
"Romanticism does not mean love and love," the old man said: "Romanticism means doing something knowing that it cannot be done. It is all the natural and beautiful things in the world. Compared with these, love and love are inferior."
Qingchen curled his lips: "Just talk nonsense."
The old man stared and looked at Qingchen who was sitting on the pony next to him: "You are neither old nor young, how can you talk to your elders!"
"Keep talking," Qingchen said with a smile.
The old man said: "It used to be almost a custom for every generation in the Li family's consortium to produce a knight. The relationship between Li family and the knight leader has always been very good. However, it was too difficult to become a knight later. Li family also had
It has been broken for several generations. Once, I also had the opportunity to become a knight, but my father's life was short-lived and he died after only giving birth to three children. Later, the third child went to school to become a teacher and became a painter. As the eldest son, I will not
Taking this position would mean losing all the power, so I had to give up."
Qingchen thought to himself, this is what happened.
The old man continued with emotion: "I heard about your reaction after eating arowana, which made me yearn for the vast world outside again. If I also become a knight, I should be able to visit many places in my lifetime. In my life
The most regrettable thing is that I can't take a look at the real Longhu. Your master's master told me that the sparkling waves there are like sapphires inlaid on the earth; I can't enter the forbidden place No. 002 either.
I couldn't take a nap under the roots of the towering tree; I couldn't listen to the golden light and shadow telling the stories of the past in Forbidden Land No. 001. You think it's strange or not, but at the last moment of my life, I was thinking about this.
They are not the good things that have been enjoyed, but the regrets that have never been obtained."
"As the head of the Li family, you can go wherever you want to see now," Qingchen said.
The old man shook his head: "No, it's too late."
For some reason, Qingchen suddenly felt sad. He knew what the old man meant when he said it was too late.
The old man smiled and said: "I will share a secret with you for free this time. There are three rules in forbidden land No. 10. The first one is not to make excuses. If others scold you, you must accept it; the second one is that you must kill every day."
Once; the third time, at midnight on the first day after entering, tell the forbidden place a secret that only you know."
The old man said: "The last one was formed after the death of the practitioners of the Hu's intelligence agency. They spent their lives exploring other people's secrets and would not let them go until they died. Sometimes, we will talk about the rules of forbidden places,
In fact, it is a curse brought by extraordinary beings to the world. One day those endless forbidden places will engulf the world and bring the curse to everyone."
"The arowana was captured by the knight in Forbidden Land No. 10, right?" Qingchen asked, "You don't have good intentions when telling me this. You obviously want me to help Li Ke catch the last arowana."
"Are you just helping Li Ke?" The old man said with a smile: "You will have many apprentices in the future, and you can't have nine disciples per person?"
Qingchen sighed: "You really hope that I can clean up the forbidden area No. 10."
At this time, Qingchen suddenly remembered his conversation with Li Dongze yesterday. He asked: "Old man, do you think that nature in this world is inherently good or inherently evil?"
The old man said calmly: "Our nature is inherently evil, but we are inclined to do good."
Qingchen asked curiously: "Then do you think there are more good people or more bad people in this world?"
The old man looked at him and said with a smile: "There are no good or bad people. Everyone has evil thoughts in their hearts, but some people hide them deeply and some people hide them shallowly. When the Wuxin bell was just hung on Baopu Tower, one day
It kept ringing all night, and I was completely confused."
"Ah?" Qingchen wondered: "Is it so exaggerated?"
"Of course, there are no evil-minded people in this world. Those servants and doctors who serve me, who don't arrange a few words for me behind my back? If I really took it to heart, this mountainside manor would have become a hell on earth.
, buried under the garden are all corpses.”
"Then why does the Wuxin bell in Baopu Tower stop ringing now?" Qingchen was curious.
"Because I let it stop, and B-level and above masters approach, and then judge good and evil," the old man said: "So, the servants working inside will not trigger it. In the past twenty years, Wuxin Copper has
The bell only rang seven more times. Don't think so much, who has no evil in his heart? If he didn't have evil, he wouldn't be a human being. Just do good."
Qingchen always felt that there was some wisdom hidden in the old man's words when he talked about this matter.
…
…
At this moment, in an apartment in the fifth district of City No. 18.
Two men in black were walking silently on the carpet, and their combat boots made no sound when they stepped on it.
The two of them were rummaging around in the house, while a middle-aged man was kneeling next to him, naked and with blood on his face.
A man in black looked at the middle-aged man and said: "I don't quite understand. Your father and his team were responsible for building the community next to Banshan Manor. The project should have been completed in eight months, but it was delayed for a year and a half.
Half a year was spent laying the foundation... Is the foundation so important and does it take so long?"
The middle-aged man trembled and closed his eyes tightly without saying a word.
Another man in black picked up a photo frame at home and said calmly: "You still have two daughters. After the divorce, they should live with their mother, right? After the community was built, your father and several of his colleagues successively
By hiding your name and changing your appearance, do you think Mr. Li is kind-hearted and has a favor for not killing you? You are just an ant being taken advantage of, so there is no need to keep secrets for the master like this, right?"
The man in black smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous. I just want to know what secrets are hidden in that community? You see, how much time and price we have spent trying to find you, we can't leave us empty-handed.
And go back."
The middle-aged man still didn't speak.
"Okay," the man in black squatted in front of the middle-aged man and said in a relaxed tone: "If you don't tell me, then we will ask your two daughters to see if they know anything. If they don't know either
If so, then sell their hearts to city No. 10, their kidneys to city No. 17, and their corneas to city No. 1..."
In the end, the middle-aged man couldn't bear the brutal murder of his daughter. He whispered: "There is a secret passage hidden there! Don't disturb my family. There is a tunnel leading to the Mid-Levels Manor hidden under Room 101 of Building 2!"
The two men in black looked at each other and smiled. One of them raised his hand and pulled the trigger. The subsonic bullet penetrated the middle-aged man's forehead, leaving a bloody hole.
One of them said: "We need to act as soon as possible. The death of these craftsmen cannot be hidden for too long. The Li family will soon know that someone knows the secret passage leading to the interior of Banshan Manor."
