Chapter 148 The protagonist's halo is really awesome
The twenty-four states, coupled with the extremely powerful individual power of cultivators, have made the situation in the entire Xuanlong Continent extremely complicated. In Jiang Beiran's own summary, there are both the ancient Seven Heroes and the modern ones.
Nuclear level.
Several countries with high-quality refining resources are united vertically and horizontally, and they come and go in the middle of the continent.
Some small countries caught between these powerful countries are trying to survive in the cracks. A very interesting phenomenon is that because everyone wants to attack you, you are safe. However, this kind of security makes people very unreliable, because
Several powerful countries will assume that you know the "chessboard" and have various layouts on it.
Then there are some relatively remote countries, such as the Sheng Kingdom. There are not many rare cultivation resources in the country, so they can quietly huddle in the realm where they should be, and then recognize a powerful country or a powerful sect as their eldest brother, which can still guarantee their success.
There is peace on one side.
However, these are just general distributions. In fact, there are many special situations. For example, a certain Xuanzun or even a Xuansheng-level powerhouse cannot bear to see a certain place brightly lit by war, so he sends him a symbol and then tells him
People from all over the continent.
"I will protect this country."
Another example is that a peerless genius suddenly appeared in a small country and became one of the strongest at an astonishing speed. If the family of this peerless genius is still in this small country, then this country can be regarded as having a protective gold medal. Most people don't.
Will come to your door to cause trouble.
All of the above are the effects of too strong individual power, and too strong individual power is also the main reason for the plummeting prestige of the imperial court.
Where there is a court, there is naturally an emperor. In most countries, the emperor is just a puppet. What he needs to be responsible for is governing the country. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to prevent the people from starving to death, otherwise the sect or the demon sect will recruit disciples.
But a puppet is a puppet, and the respect that should be given must still be given. Generally, the emperor is backed by the strongest force in the country. If other sects want to bully the court, they can tolerate you once or twice, but if they refuse to give it to the court again and again,
Face means not giving face to the person behind the wasteland. Needless to say what the consequences will be.
The imperial court also has an army, and the army is still lethal to practitioners below Xuanling level.
After all, before being promoted to Xuanling, once the Xuanqi is exhausted, soldiers can still kill the cultivators if they swarm them.
But the soldiers didn't dare to provoke the practitioners at all. They only existed to manage the people.
However, not every emperor was so willing to be a puppet of a sect or a demonic sect. Some emperors stayed dormant for several years and trained themselves to become masters in defeating both good and evil, completing the centralization of power.
Or the strong people in the country believe that a strong court is the foundation of a country, and power must be concentrated in one place to better manage the country. Then the court in this country will be very powerful, and can even organize an army of practitioners.
.
What's more, a certain person in the wasteland is suddenly unwilling to be a puppet. He doesn't have the strength to practice, and the practitioners in the country don't agree with the importance of the imperial court. What can he do at this time?
Make trouble!
Let the good and the evil fight on their own, and when they fight until both sides are injured and the whole country is in ruins and needs to rebuild order, his chance will come.
'Obviously, our old emperor, no, this is what the emperor wants to do.'
Jiang Beiran's impression was that the emperor of the Sheng Kingdom should be in his early twenties, a high-spirited age, and he could understand that he wanted to do something big.
'But rights are really a crime. Fengzhou, which is poor and broken, can attract so many people to fight for it, let alone those wealthy states in the center of the mainland.'
'This damn place is too dangerous.'
With a sigh in his heart, Jiang Beiran looked at Lifu City and asked, "Can you tell me in detail?"
"It's not that I don't know the specifics. My third uncle just told me that the next period of time is likely to be uneven."
"Then you still ran out?"
"I..." Lifu City took a sip of sesame paste to hide his embarrassment, "I just don't feel peaceful, so there will be more opportunities for me to establish myself elsewhere."
"..."
A weakling with no preparation dared to come out with such an idea. Jiang Beiran has not been killed yet and can only describe his mood at the moment in one sentence.
'The aura of the protagonist is really awesome!'
In order to ease the sudden embarrassment, Jiang Beiran found a topic and said: "Hey, the Eighteen Mingding formations in your yard are well arranged. Who helped you set them up?"
The Eighteen Mansion Ding Formation is a defensive formation. There is a soldier from the underworld standing in each of the eighteen directions, also commonly known as the Yin Soldier. As long as someone steps into this formation, the soldier will immediately report to the organizer.
.
But Jiang Beiran used a blind trick when he came in, so that the Yin soldiers did not notice him, and he suddenly appeared in front of Lifu City.
"Brother Wang is laughing, these Eighteen Houses Ding Formation... was set up by me."
"You did it?" Jiang Beiran asked in surprise.
Although he had previously given him a book called "The Book of Eight Palaces and Four Luos", these eighteen mansion formations were not recorded in the "Book of Eight Palaces and Four Luos", and even though there were ten records in the "Book of Eight Palaces and Four Luos",
The Eight Mansion Ding Formation should not be something that a newbie like him, who had only been exposed to formations for a few months, could set up, and he could do it in such a stylish way.
At the very least, Jiang Beiran could be sure that Wu Qingce, who had learned the formation for two years, would never be able to show it off.
"Well, I have to thank Brother Wang for the formation book you gave me last time. I benefited a lot from it and learned a lot."
Putting aside his surprise, Jiang Beiran asked again: "Have you ever learned formations before?"
"My third uncle taught me some things, but they were just basics."
"Your third uncle knows so many things..."
"Yes!" Lifu City nodded vigorously, "The third uncle is really very powerful. My mother said that if some changes had not happened back then, the leader of our Blood Flame Sect should have been the third uncle, but...
"
[Option 1: Continue listening. Completion reward: Golden Spirit Illusion]
[Option 2: Interrupt Lifu City. Completion reward: Random basic skill point +1]
‘Fuck…come again!?’
Jiang Beiran, who felt that he had experienced this before, quickly waved his hand and said: "I don't want to know about your housework, so let's go back to the formation."
[Optional task completed, reward: calligraphy +1]
"I'm sorry, I got a little excited when I mentioned Third Uncle. Let's continue talking about formations."
'Sigh... This story about the Blood Flame Sect seems like enough to make a third-rate TV series.'
Then Lifucheng talked about how he understood the "Book of Eight Palaces and Four Luo", extracted knowledge points from several formations recorded in it, and then tried to create other formations by himself, etc.
.
And Lifu City said so much, but Jiang Beiran only heard five words in his ears.
"I'm the protagonist and I'm awesome."
If what Lifu City said was all true, then his formation talent was simply monster-level, and he could learn it faster than he could with just a few extra points.
"I see, Brother Li is indeed very talented in formations."
"Brother Wang." At this moment, Li Fucheng suddenly looked at Jiang Beiran seriously and said.
"What's wrong?"
"Actually..." Lifu City sighed: "I am very confused now. Although I have made a name for myself in Jiangbei District by accident, I know very well that it is not because of my own strength."
'Oh, you are very self-aware.'
Jiang Beiran's evaluation of Lifu City suddenly rose a little higher in his mind.
After finishing speaking, Li Fucheng hesitated for a while before continuing: "Brother Wang's words when we met last time are still fresh in my memory and inspired me a lot. And when I first fell into confusion, Brother Wang, you
Appeared, I believe it must be fate."
'Why did this kid fool himself into being lame?'
However, Jiang Beiran did not intend to destroy his belief, and he cooperated with him by assuming a sitting posture like a master.
Sure enough, Lifu City became even more excited when he saw it. He stood up and bowed to the end, "Brother Wang, what should I do next? Please give me some guidance."
As soon as Lifu City finished speaking, three options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran.
[Option 1: Take advantage of the situation to conquer Lifu City, completion reward: Dragon-Inducing Buddha Spear (prefecture-level low-grade)]
[Option 2: Seriously analyze what he should do next for Lifu City. Completion reward: Que Yu Fantasy Code (Xuan-level low-grade)]
[Option 3: "How would I know?". Completion reward: Random basic attribute point +1]
'Fuck... He is indeed the last class of the protagonist. He can easily trigger the earth-level option, but what the hell is it to conquer him? I can still take out a Poké Ball.'
After complaining, Jiang Beiran carefully divided the first two options, and he probably understood that if Lifu City changed the trajectory of his life because of his words, then this change would affect him, and it would be quite a trouble.
'Sure enough, it's better to think about accepting the protagonist as his younger brother. This kind of people's fate is too tough and they can easily kill the people around them.'
Choosing three, Jiang Beiran smiled and replied: "How would I know?"
[Optional mission completed, reward: Strength +1]
This sudden answer made Lifu City almost flinch.
He thought that Brother Wang looked at him so seriously and acted as if he wanted to answer seriously, so he would definitely point out a path that was very suitable for him, but he didn't expect that what was waiting for him was such a joke-like statement.
'No... what Brother Wang said so seriously must not be a joke. Could it be that... Brother Wang means that you have to walk the road of life by yourself, and others can't help you, so instead of hesitating where you are,
, it is better to challenge the unknown.'
'How do I know? Yes, these five short words contain too much. No one can know what will happen after making this choice, and no one can know what will happen tomorrow, but only by taking action will
Only if there is tomorrow will there be a future.'
Lifu Cheng, who instantly understood what Jiang Beiran meant, bowed to the end again, raised his hands in earnest and said in thanks, "Thank you, Brother Wang, for your guidance. Fucheng knows what to do."
'You know what you know...' Looking at the satisfied look on Lifu City's face, Jiang Beiran was a little confused.
'This guy really doesn't follow the rules more than I do.'
After bowing, Lifu City stood up straight again and said, "Brother Wang, is there anything I can do to help you with the task of wiping out the Yellow Gang?"
"No." Jiang Beiran waved his hand: "We are still on the same level."
Since he knew that Lifu City would destroy the fate of those around him, then this eldest brother Jiang Beiran really couldn't afford it.
Lifu City was a little disappointed after hearing this, but he still agreed.
"You have already done enough to help the Yellow Gang. The rest is just waiting for the results."
Now that they have figured out the details of the Yellow Gang, they have also caught several big fish. As long as this information is sent up, the Yellow Gang will face the dimensionality reduction attack of the two giants in Fengzhou.
Survival is possible.
"Yes, little..." Lifu City realized something was wrong mid-sentence and changed his words: "Okay, I understand."
Worried that if he continued to stay in Lifu City, he would force him to take over. Jiang Beiran stood up and said, "Thank you for the information you provided this time. It's been a big help. Then I have to hurry up and deal with these things. We are destined to meet again."
"Brother Wang!"
Just when Jiang Beiran was about to walk out of the yard, Lifu Cheng suddenly shouted.
Just as Jiang Beiran was about to stop, he saw two options pop up.
[Option 1: Stop and ask what's going on. Completion reward: Qianhong Youlu (Mid-level Mysterious Grade)]
[Option 2: Leave directly. Completion reward: Random basic skill point +1]
Decisively choosing the second option, Jiang Beiran left the yard without looking back.
[Optional mission completed, reward: Alchemy +1]
Watching Brother Wang leave, Lifu City stood there for a long time, until Tang Tinshuang came over and asked, "Is Brother Wang gone?"
"Yeah." Lifu City nodded.
Seeing that Lifu City looked a little disappointed, Tang Tingshuang, who had just heard the conversation between the two in the kitchen, couldn't help but said: "I don't know why Brother Wang is so indifferent to you, Senior Brother."
"No! That's not the case." Lifu City shook his head.
"Then why does Brother Wang mean to draw a clear line with you, Senior Brother, in both his words and deeds..."
"Can't you hear that Brother Wang is protecting us?"
"Protect us...?" Tang Tingshuang blinked with confusion on his face.
"You should know very well what kind of existence the Yellow Gang is."
"Yeah." Tang Tingshuang nodded.
"But Brother Wang wants to uproot the Yellow Gang as soon as he opens his mouth. What does this mean? It means that Brother Wang is in a completely different realm from us. He is worried that we will be involved, so he is unwilling to talk to us more.
explain."
As he spoke, Lifu City sighed: "I called Brother Wang just now to tell him that I am not afraid of strong enemies and to ask him to give me a chance to fight alongside him, but Brother Wang obviously knew what I was going to say.
So he left directly, which shows that he really didn’t want to involve us."
Looking at the direction in which Jiang Beiran disappeared, Lifu City secretly swore.
'I must become stronger, so strong that Brother Wang is willing to let me face all the crises with him!'
