Volume 1: The Tao Gives Birth to All Things Chapter 12: Everyone has their own helplessness
Lying on the bed, Lu Yihan's mind kept repeating the scene in Old Man Ji's alchemy laboratory just now. He could now confirm that he was really influenced by some kind of force that led him to call "Starwalker" "Song of the Night".
That is, his fate was manipulated by someone else. The more Lu Yihan thought about it, the more angry he became, it was really difficult to swallow this breath, he jumped up directly from the bed, put on the pajamas in the guest room, and he was going to go to Old Man Ji to settle accounts.
"Young people, don't be so angry, you must learn to be calm when you encounter problems, and plan before you act. Now you go to Old Man Ji, do you think you can beat him, or can you kill him?"
A middle-aged man entered Lu Yihan's room at some point, as if he had entered his own home. After turning on the light, I consciously opened the wine cabinet and took out a bottle of red wine and two glasses.
Lu Yihan screamed in fright and asked, "Who are you?
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Trespassing on a private house? What a big crime, but unfortunately, this is not a private house, but my territory." My territory, I want to come, so I can come casually. ”
Saying that, he poured half a glass of red wine and handed it to Lu Yihan, and he also poured half a glass, then stood in front of the window, looked at the night view of the imperial capital at midnight, and said: "Introduce yourself, my name is Xu Wenwu, you can call me Minister." You can also do the same as them, call me Iron Rooster, or be stingy. ”
Lu Yihan hesitated, but still took the wine glass, and was so frightened by the words "Minister" that he swallowed back into his stomach.
Seeing that Lu Yihan didn't answer, Xu Wenwu asked, "What is your purpose in joining the Light of Justice?"
"Who said that I was going to join the light of justice, I just had nowhere to go......" Lu Yihan only dared to think about it in his heart, how could he dare to say it.
He straightened his waist and said: "Naturally, it is for justice, for the safety of the empire, and for the light of justice to shine on the earth...... "No matter where he went in his previous life, he could see all kinds of slogans, slogans, and it was not difficult to shout a few words.
Xu Wenwu was obviously a little excited by his "bold words", and seemed to recall the scene when he joined the light of justice. At that time, he was also full of enthusiasm, vowing to dedicate everything to the empire and the interests of the people......
When Lu Yihan shouted dryly, he approved: "It's good that you have this idea, since you are bent on serving the empire and the people, then why bother with which sequence you practice?"
"In my eyes, as long as you work hard enough and are lucky enough, any sequence can reach the top. Otherwise, no matter how good the sequence is, you will be in vain......"
Lu Yihan listened to him talk about the big truth, and sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being a politician, who could say black to white and bring the dead to life. And you can't refute it yet, you have to listen carefully, and nod your head from time to time, indicating that you have understood the connotation, which is really unreasonable!
Finally, Xu Wenwu said: "To sum up, as a doctor, you can not only stay away from danger, but also help more people, and cherish the opportunity in front of you."
"All of this was done by Old Man Ji at my behest. If you have any grievances, you can directly seek revenge from me. A cultivator who can't, or doesn't dare to take revenge, is not a good cultivator.
"That's it, I hope you can remember what you just said, everything is in the interests of the empire and the interests of the people!"
Lu Yihan's heart was not drowned by his saliva at all, and he was still indignant in his heart, but what he was thinking about now was not looking for revenge on Old Man Ji, but whether there was a chance to change his cultivation sequence.
He said angrily: "Have you already calculated that I can be promoted to the third level at most, and I will never be able to seek revenge on you?"
Xu Wenwu said solemnly: "I can think like this, but you can't think like this, what you have to think about is that no matter what, you have to break through the mortal mirror and enter the fairy realm, or even the god realm." Trampling Xu Wenwu under his feet and ravaging him ruthlessly, this is the question you should think about! In the light of our justice, there are endless possibilities!"
"Bah, who wouldn't say such a thing? I believe you are a ghost, you old man...... I'm so pitiful, a traverser, who was supposed to be the protagonist of this world, was ravaged again and again......"
Xu Wenwu saw that Lu Yihan was silent, and said: "In this way, in order to express my apologies, I will double your salary, and the weekly salary will be twelve silver coins." Even the cultivators of the same level of the Heavenly Prison Bureau are only half of yours, okay?"
As soon as he mentioned money, Lu Yihan immediately quickly calculated the value of twelve silver coins in his heart.
Throughout the continent, there are three types of currency: copper, silver, and gold.
One hundred copper coins is equal to one silver coin, and ten silver coins are equal to one gold coin. Based on one copper coin for breakfast, his monthly income is about about 6,000 yuan equivalent to that of his previous life. In addition to being cheaper, the rent is also relatively much cheaper. Of course, if you want to buy a house in the bustling neighborhood of the imperial capital, the price is higher than buying a courtyard house in the capital in the previous life.
In this way, it can be said that he has stepped into the threshold of a well-off with one foot. Thinking about it this way, he felt a little better.
Xu Wenwu smiled: "What a guy who sees money." ”
Lu Yihan could only sigh: "Life is like being raped, when I am powerless to resist, I have to learn to enjoy the fun." ”
Xu Wenwu savored it for a while, and laughed: "Boy, you are very interesting, these words will belong to me in the future, and it is very good to use them to enlighten those guys with a tendon brain." ”
Lu Yihan almost blurted out, "Patent fee, two silver coins per week!"
Xu Wenwu patted Lu Yihan on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Young man, your future is infinitely bright, Sunshine Avenue is in front of you, don't give up on yourself." Tomorrow, I will go with Zhu Siping to collect your belongings, and then go to the special training camp for three months of training. After that, you will be an official member of our Light of Justice. Looking forward to the moment when you shine with endless light. ”
After speaking, he drank the wine in the wine glass in one gulp, walked towards the door, and when he was about to close the door, he turned around and explained, "Remember, don't reveal your cultivation sequence to anyone, remember!"
After Xu Wenwu left, Lu Yihan felt sleepy, fell asleep on the bed.
............
Xu Wenwu returned to the office on the top floor, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and was silent, a dark figure appeared quietly behind him, and asked respectfully: "Your Excellency, Ji Hongkui has begun to pack up his things, how are we going to act, please make it clear!"
Xu Wenwu remained motionless and said very calmly: "Just keep an eye on his every move, don't disturb him." He won't leave until he has researched the fourth level of the Night Chant's ability. This is the agreement between me and him, as for the follow-up matters, when this matter is dealt with, I will talk about the rest of the matter. ”
The shadow replied, "Understood." Also, Yun Tangge is asking to see you outside the door, do you see it or not?"
Xu Wenwu waved his hand and said, "I don't see ...... Forget it, let's let him in. ”
As soon as the black shadow disappeared for a while, the door of the office opened by itself, Yun Tangge walked in with a smile, and after closing the door, he immediately shouted: "Your Excellency, after Lu Yihan finishes the training of the special training camp, you have to transfer him to the first prison, I am very short of people there now!"
Xu Wenwu turned around, looked at Yun Tangge, and said, "How many times have I said it, don't come to me in the middle of the night." I'm no longer a cultivator, and I can't stand the toss. Also, don't call me Minister in private!"
Yun Tangge smiled: "Haven't you slept yet? Besides, I'm a prison warden, why do I come to the minister's office in broad daylight? I don't care, but it doesn't affect you well." ”
Xu Wenwu scolded with a smile: "I, when do you have such good intentions, I won't be chased and killed everywhere." By the way, what's going on with Wan Ruitao?"
Yun Tangge shrugged his shoulders and said, "What else can happen, he has been promoted to the fourth level of 'wizard', and I am his opponent." ”
As he spoke, he looked down at the night sky outside the window, and said with great nostalgia: "I remember that the four of us were born and died together. Carried guns together, crossed the window together, prostituted together, and shared dirty ...... The four people who have the most iron relationship have now become enemies. Sometimes I don't even know whether to shoot or stand there in front of him, betting that he won't kill me. ”
Xu Wenwu showed a rare look of nostalgia and said, "Yes, there is a person who is also leaving now." ”
Yun Tangge was stunned for a moment, and said, "You mean Ji Hongkui, he is leaving, is he going to die?"
Xu Wenwu glanced at him and said, "If you turn into white bones, he won't die, he will leave the light of justice!"
Yun Tangge was silent for a long time before he said, "Once he walks out of the imperial capital, you will definitely kill him at all costs, right?"
Xu Wenwu nodded and said, "Yes, I will kill him." I don't allow the empire to have an enemy like him! In fact, he also knows very well that if I promise to let him leave the imperial capital, it will be tantamount to killing him. ”
Yun Tangge said: "I guarantee with my personality that he will not do anything that is detrimental to the interests of the empire. ”
Xu Wenwu shook his head and said, "Your guarantee is invalid." We now look at the problem from our own position, and we will all look at the problem from a different perspective. But I'm sure I'll give him a chance, and as for the ending, who can guess?"
Yun Tangge said: "I'll go to him and persuade him in a while." Let's talk about Lu Yihan first, no matter what, you have to give him to me. ”
Xu Wenwu said with a smile: "I can give it to you, but I also have one condition, you return to work at the headquarters and re-establish the Ninth Special Operations Team." ”
Yun Tangge said angrily: "Don't force me like this, can you? I finally found a place to retire, so you can let me stay there." ”
Xu Wenwu said: "Then I will transfer Zhu Siping from prison to the Ninth Special Operations Team." Stick her flower on your pile of cow dung, how many people have an opinion about me. ”
Yun Tangge waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you just treat me as if I haven't been here, I don't want Lu Yihan, and you don't want Zhu Siping to be transferred." Flowers are stuck in cow dung? Hmph! That's natural fertilizer, it's very flower-nourishing. Don't take away the love of others. ”
Xu Wenwu said to Yun Tangge, who was about to close the door: "You really don't think about coming back?"
Yun Tangge didn't turn his head and said, "When will you tell me the truth about the annihilation of the Ninth Special Task Force, I will think about it." ”
