Chapter 882: The end of the hero without losing his integrity
"So...now that everything has been made clear, can you tell me your future plans?"
Yi Xiaotian took a sip of the tea brought by someone else, and after thinking about it, he said these words.
When it came to their future plans, both Fei Zhan and Peng Hu fell silent.
Sun Feng'er looked at Yi Xiaotian and at the leader of Shanyue opposite, feeling the stiff atmosphere between the two sides. She looked left and right but said nothing.
"To be honest, what are the future plans for people like us who have no place in the world? One day is just one day. When will no one in the mountains be able to hunt anymore?
Lead them...until then..."
Fei Zhan smiled. It was hard to imagine that a man who started from scratch and was truly a hero in troubled times would have such pessimistic thoughts after going through many baptisms.
But it’s not that Yi Xiaotian can’t understand——
"Most of the children in the village are innocent. Over the years, they have been born from the mountains. They are children of the mountains and are as pure as the mountains. There is no need for them to fend for themselves with us who are regarded as bandits by the government -
When they are a little older, I will use some connections to send them out of the mountains and forests. From now on, it will all depend on their own destiny."
Fei Zhan held up the tea cup and swayed. It was hard to imagine that such a burly man with muscles all over his clothes would actually be having tea with friends here -
"Don't you drink?"
Yi Xiaotian asked suddenly.
"No, it's too dangerous in the mountains. Drinking will cause trouble."
The man smiled and Peng Hu shook his head, confessing all their difficulties.
If Yi Xiaotian was still hesitant about helping these Shanyue people before, now after in-depth understanding - especially after hearing Fei Zhan's heartfelt words without any falsehood, he has completely firmed up his idea.
.
"Let's stop talking about the sad topic... Next, let's talk about how to get you out of this predicament so that you can see the light of day again."
As soon as he said this, Fei Zhan didn't react at first. After seeing Peng Hu's dull expression, Fei Zhan suddenly put down the tea cup on the table in front of him - the tea cup was not placed firmly, and the cup
The tea in the cup was also scattered on the floor, but this did not affect Fei Zhan's subsequent actions.
He stood up in surprise and looked at the smiling man in front of him with disbelief and even a lot of suspicion - he was too young... he looked like a young man who was just starting out.
But... Fei Zhan, who has experienced the world, believes in his own eyes... If you want to see a person's true heart, you must see it through the other person's eyes.
Their eyes met again.
This time, Fei Zhan didn't have the previous deliberateness, nor the initial anger, but only surprise and curiosity.
How many dangers have you gone through before you can maintain such a rock-solid, calm look?
This man... is young... but only by his appearance.
"are you serious…"
This sentence is not Fei Zhan's question, but Fei Zhan's final conclusion after some careful inferences and considerations just now.
But precisely because it is a conclusion, it is even more unacceptable.
"Why…"
He murmured, not asking for a real answer, but asking for a clear explanation, otherwise he would just think that God was playing tricks on him.
Yi Xiaotian is as calm as ever, or in other words, now he behaves more like a good person with no distractions.
But those who know Yi Xiaotian must know that Yi Xiaotian is by no means a good person who accepts everything and tolerates everything.
On the contrary, he is snobbish, selfish, defensive, and impulsive...but he has the calmness to support all of this.
So he didn't want to give anything to the group of men in front of him who were driven crazy and almost crushed by the world.
He wants to give the other party a mutually beneficial opportunity in the fairest and most honest manner - simply put, this is a business without any suspicion or calculation.
"If I want to talk about the reason, it is of course that I found a lot of business opportunities in Linli Mountain when I first came here——"
Speaking of this, Zhao Yun and Lu Lingqi suddenly realized it. They looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes: Yi Xiaotian had never hidden anything from them from the beginning. They bumped into each other by chance that day.
The premise of Sun Feng'er and his team is that Yi Xiaotian is actually just looking for the resources he needs in the mountains.
In other words——
"Sir, could it be those masson pines?"
Lu Lingqi blurted out, and Yi Xiaotian seemed quite satisfied after hearing the answer:
"Lingqi, you've made some progress."
Yi Xiaotian did not deny it. In other words, the first business opportunity he mentioned was the masson pine trees all over the mountains and plains.
"Masson pine? Mr. Lu...are you saying that the pine trees on those mountains are not growing? Business opportunities...this...what is going on?"
Fei Zhan and Peng Hu both looked confused. They couldn't blame them. After all, they were a group of rough guys who only knew how to fight. If the merchants doing business in the world today were to do business with such people who knew nothing about business,
Business, no matter how hard it is, I have to cheat them hard.
But this is why Yi Xiaotian said that he is willing to help them, give them opportunities, and even teach them step by step how to get rich - it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish. This is the truth.
"We'll talk about the complicated things later. Fei... I'll call you Brother Fei from now on. Brother Fei, don't you want to know why I am willing to help you?"
"The answer is simple -"
Yi Xiaotian pointed at Fei Zhan and Peng Hu.
Fei Zhan and Peng Hu pointed at themselves in disbelief, naturally their eyes were full of doubts.
"The kind deeds from the heart of both of you have made me choose to believe you. It is one of my principles to be suspicious of everything in the world, but I can clearly understand that your actions are not seeking fame or fortune, and I have not chosen to give up on myself.
, On the contrary, we try our best to help the ethnic group continue the future. With this kind of behavior, no matter how the government or the world defines you, to me, the two of you are out-and-out heroes."
"Help? No... A hero does not lose his moral integrity because of his end. Rather than helping, I believe that as long as you have a suitable opportunity, you can stand out again - and I am just going with the flow and letting nature take its course.
In my heart, I chose to stand by the two of you at this moment...not to mention..."
"You can save your family members from the tiger's mouth. This kindness alone is worth thousands of gold."
Speaking of this, Sun Feng'er blushed a little... She had overestimated her ability to come to this mountain forest to look for Shan Yue, but was rescued by Yi Xiaotian for the first time, and was saved by the Shan Yue in front of her for the second time - those people she had once identified
Saved by the existence of "evil", no matter what...she would not object to Yi Xiaotian's statement no matter what.
"So, this opportunity is not provided by me, but you deserve it. Put it this way, do you still have any doubts in your mind?"
