"To deal with an opponent of Earthsea's level, all you need to do is take action."
Chris whispered: "But these bullets don't have long eyes, especially when shooting indoors. No matter how bad the opponent's shooting skills are, there may be some ricochet that gives us a fatal blow, so Liu Xing, you have to
Be careful and it's best to follow me. If nothing happens, I should be able to protect you."
Liu Xing and others did not show off, and followed Chris obediently. At the same time, they also trusted that Chris, as a ghoul, could take bullets for them.
After entering the villa, Liu Xing had to sigh that the chief was indeed a rich man, the kind who is stupid and has a lot of money. The entrance hall was filled with all kinds of decorations from all over the world, and these decorations were placed
It is also called a mess. For example, there is an ivory next to the blue and white porcelain, and an abstract painting hangs on the wall behind it. As for the cabinet where the blue and white porcelain is placed, it is inlaid with gold and silver... In short, Liu Xing only feels the influence of money.
breath.
"Prime Minister Hefei is thin in the world." Ding Kun said with a sigh: "I'm not deceiving you. In the Earthsea Kingdom, the chief alone is fat and the world is thin. How poor is the entire Earthsea Kingdom? This great chief
One of his villas is so luxurious, not to mention that he has several villas like this and his Emirate’s Palace.”
Yin En on the side nodded, then shook his head and said: "This sentence is right or wrong to describe Li Zhongtang. Although Li Zhongtang, the bastard, did make a lot of money, he was the last **** in the Qing Dynasty.
——In front of Yi Kuang is a younger brother. This Yi Kuang can even be said to be the gravedigger of the Qing Dynasty. Without him, the Qing Dynasty might still be able to survive for a few more years."
Liu Xing nodded in agreement, because Liu Xing had also heard about the "great achievements" of this ****. If Li Zhongtang is a traitor, then Yikuang is a traitor to the country, and many people jokingly call him Yi
Kuang is fully qualified to be called the number one hero under Sun Zaizhi.
When this shabby car in the Qing Dynasty started to go downhill, Yikuang did it without hesitation and stepped on the accelerator... According to relevant information and comparison of purchasing power at the time, Yikuang's family wealth was at least as good as that of Heshen, and even
It was slightly more than that, and you have to remember that Heshen was still living in the heyday of the Qing Dynasty. When Yikuang came to power, the Qing Dynasty was already a dilapidated house with air leakage from all sides.
As for why Yi Kuang's popularity is not as good as that of Li Hongzhang, it is because Yi Kuang has a profound knowledge of the situation. He always pushes Li Zhongtang to the front desk, while he happily makes a lot of money in the background. Of course, this is also Li Zhongtang's.
It seemed that Zhongtang should have made a lot of money by being a traitor, but it turned out that it was not a lot (referring to 50 million taels of silver). The reason was not that Li Zhongtang didn't make more, but that there was a Yi Kuang who took the bulk of the money.
After leaving, Li Zhongtang only got these. Therefore, many people now use this to whitewash Li Zhongtang, and Liu Xing can only say hehe.
Of course, some people use the nickname "Bismarck of the East" to vindicate Li Zhongtang. After all, Bismarck can be said to be a famous figure in Europe, and his achievements are unmatched by Germany at that time or in history.
, and this sentence was said by Conard, the German Navy Minister at the time.
Liu Xing can only say one thing about this, haha, because there is a saying that money can make the world go round, so if Li Zhongtang can bring greater benefits to Germany, let Conard call him "the reincarnation of the Kaiser"
"Spiritual Boy" is fine. As for other people sitting at the negotiating table at that time praising Li Zhongtang, the same reason applies.
Just when Liu Xing was slandering Li Zhongtang, Ryan, who was taking the lead, had already entered the corridor on the left.
"no one."
Ryan said: "But this place has been blocked, but it is just a cabinet and some sundries. I don't know if someone did it deliberately, and I don't know if there is an ambush here; if we use grenades or flashlights,
If you bomb it, although it will be safer, it may also alert the snake."
At this time, Taketori, who was in an invisible state, whispered to Liu Xing and others: "There is no one at the corner of the corridor, and there are no traps."
Hearing what Taketori said, Ding Kun stepped forward and said: "Ryan, you should also know who we are, so if you believe in our abilities, then there will be no one around this corner. If you don't believe it,
Let me be the vanguard and you can help me set up the gun."
Ryan nodded and said with a smile: "Of course I know that all of your Miskatonic University expedition team are strange people and have abilities that are difficult for us to understand, so I believe what you say, and this is what I am willing to do.
The reason why I brought you here with me."
As soon as Ryan finished speaking, the gunshots not far away suddenly became fierce.
Time was urgent, so Rui En and Ding Kun rushed forward without saying anything else, while Liu Xing and others followed closely behind.
After passing through the corridor, Liu Xing and others secretly came to a small garden. At this time, two groups of people were confronting each other across the fountain. Among them, Ryuzaki and others were forced to hide in the pavilion.
"It's interesting. There is an open-air garden in the middle of this villa." Liu Xing said as he sent a message to Ryuzaki, explaining that his group was already in place.
After sending the message, Liu Xing had time to look at his opponents on this trip - a group of black bodyguards holding AK47s. Although they looked very imposing, Liu Xing knew from the posture of these bodyguards holding guns that these bodyguards were
They are the legendary players whose hits depend entirely on God. It’s no wonder they haven’t taken down Ryuzaki and others after playing for so long.
"How to fight? We said we would find a way to create chaos and then take Ryuzaki and others away?" Ding Kun asked Rui En.
Ryan thought for a while and said hesitantly: "My idea is to use force to overwhelm others. Since we are all here now, I think these guys should give us a face. After all, we represent America...
.But the Kingdom of Earthsea is so weak that they are not afraid of any threats at all, because they have nothing to lose."
Liu Xing nodded in agreement. The enemies in front of him had lost their backer - the chief. So if nothing unexpected happened, they would soon become invisible to everyone, and would even be regarded as a threat by those who came after them.
Get started and kill it.
Therefore, these guys are very likely to ignore the origins of their group and attack them directly.
"But we don't need to worry too much. The bodyguards of these great chiefs look good at first glance. As long as we take the lead and kill a few of them directly, the remaining bodyguards should lose their fighting spirit."
Ryan opened the safety of the rifle in his hand and made up his mind: "So we should strike first. At this time, we are too lazy to reason with these guys. Since they dare to attack Ryuzaki, they should have already been prepared to be killed."
We prepare for annihilation."
Just when Ryan was about to take action, Ding Kun suddenly said: "Wait a minute, I think something is wrong with these people! There seems to be something wrong with their eyes."
As soon as Ding Kun said this, Liu Xing and others immediately focused their attention on the eyes of the bodyguards. Only then did they realize that the eyes of those bodyguards were a little dull, and nearly two-thirds of their eyes were occupied by black pupils.
This is obviously abnormal.
"These people may have been controlled, or brainwashed in some way." Chris said with certainty: "But I can't feel any magic fluctuations on their bodies now, so they should be through magic.
The method is controlled; when I traveled around South America, I heard that there is a kind of chewing tobacco with added ingredients in many places. This kind of chewing tobacco can make people lose their self-consciousness in a short period of time and listen wholeheartedly.
Because of the orders of the people around me, this kind of chewing tobacco is basically expensive but not marketable, and after a simple investigation, I couldn’t determine the origin of this kind of chewing tobacco.”
Chewing tobacco, as the name suggests, is tobacco used for chewing. Because cigarettes back then were relatively expensive. After all, the papers used in cigarettes were all specially made, and there were no industrialized assembly lines, so many people could only use chewing tobacco instead of smoking.
.
Therefore, chewing tobacco at that time was similar to chewing betel nut today. In order to make it easier to drink or add more flavor, certain seasonings would be added. However, because tobacco was chewed directly, chewing tobacco would make people more heady, but
Chewing tobacco is still too troublesome for people today, and cigarettes are already very cheap, so chewing tobacco has withdrawn from the mainstream market and become a relatively niche circle.
However, for the Native Americans, chewing tobacco is a long-standing tradition, so it is not strange if these bodyguards like chewing tobacco, so it is normal for them to be controlled because of chewing tobacco.
At this moment, Ryuzaki replied to Liu Xing with a text message, saying that the situation on his side was pretty good and there had been no casualties so far, but Ryuzaki warned Liu Xing never to try to negotiate with these people because they
It's totally unreasonable, and they had suddenly attacked Ryuzaki and his party before, without any warning.
"It seems that Chris is right. Ryuzaki just told me that these bodyguards acted suddenly. Considering the appearance of these bodyguards now, I think they are indeed controlled by someone, but I can't figure out who controls these bodyguards."
Why do you do this? Those who have the ability to do this should be the chief's family. After all, it is not easy to control so many bodyguards at the same time, but they don't have to do this, right? Because they can give orders directly." Liu Xing.
He said with some confusion.
"Yes, this is indeed a bit unreasonable." Chris looked at the bodyguards, shook his head and said: "From other aspects, these bodyguards are no different from ordinary people, so..."
Before Chris finished speaking, the bodyguards fired several more shots at the pavilion, but their stroke shooting skills could only ensure that the bullets would fall within the range of the pavilion.
"Wait a minute, if the people who control these bodyguards really want to kill Ryuzaki, they should have ordered these bodyguards to attack at all costs. If so, Ryuzaki and others would not survive now; so
The order given to these bodyguards should be to restrain Ryuzaki and others so that they cannot leave the villa in a short period of time!" Liu Xing said with certainty.
Ding Kun on the side nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, this pavilion is ventilated from all sides. If these bodyguards are determined to fight, they can easily get rid of Ryuzaki and others hiding in the pavilion, but they
If they didn't do this, it means that the people who control them have no murderous intentions, and the people present are all bodyguards, and there are no family members of the chief!"
Liu Xing carefully looked at the people near the garden, and indeed found no suspected family members of the chief.
"Could it be that the great chief's family chose to run away? So they controlled these bodyguards to stop Ryuzaki and others? But this is a bit unreasonable. Although Ryuzaki and others are here to get things this time, I think Ryuzaki should
There will be no empty handed; and if those people know the value of that item, then they should also know that the item is just a part of the treasure map, and it is worthless when taken alone, so there is no need for them to hold on tightly.
In your own hands."
Zhang Jingxu touched his chin and analyzed, "So the reason that prompted them to do this may not be the treasure map, but other ulterior reasons."
At this moment, Liu Xing and others suddenly heard a loud bell.
"Is this the sound of the bronze bell?" Liu Xing said doubtfully: "Who will be ringing the bronze bell in the villa at this time?"
"That's because someone wants to release these bodyguards from being controlled!"
Ding Kun pointed at the bodyguards and said: "You see, these bodyguards have returned to normal, and it seems that they have no idea what just happened."
Liu Xing looked at the bodyguards and found that they all looked very confused. They couldn't figure out what was going on now and why they were standing here with guns.
"What should we do now, should we stand up directly? Or wait a little longer?" Ryan turned around and asked, "These bodyguards won't become what they were just now, right?"
Chris shook his head and said affirmatively: "It is unlikely for the time being, because unless it is a very powerful being, it is impossible to control so many people in a short period of time, so we can try to communicate with these bodyguards now.
Ask them what's going on."
As soon as Chris finished speaking, Ryuzaki in the pavilion also noticed the changes in these bodyguards, so he stood up and said: "Is this your way of hospitality? Is it your highest etiquette to beat the guests into a honeycomb?"
The bodyguards looked at Ryuzaki and the bullets and bullet holes scattered around Ryuzaki, and their expressions suddenly became panicked.
