Chapter 179: Gains and Losses
The strange characteristics of the Xiyue clan require blood to survive, no matter how you look at it, they are not good.
It's just that sucking the blood of animals and sucking the blood of humans are two different concepts, and everyone can be happy and close their eyes to the former.
But the latter, that is, the demon that everyone gets and is punished.
Li Ao's indifference came from the fact that he knew very well what was important, the infiltration and resource possession of this land by the Holy Lord and the Demon Clan, and there was no need for those who were disobedient to stay.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, these things are also easy to figure out, but some people can't do it, some people don't want to do it but have to do it, and some people do it neatly, so it becomes indifferent in the eyes of others.
Tao Ziyuan thinks that he belongs to the second type, and the person next to him now seems to belong to the third type.
Thinking of this, Tao Ziyuan couldn't help but sigh, "I always thought I was ruthless enough, but I didn't expect to meet you, I only admire two people when it comes to being ruthless, plus you are the third, the little woman is willing to bow down." ”
Listening to Tao Zikite's run, Li Ao was not angry, and said calmly,
"There are gains and losses, and if you want to seek something, you naturally have to pay a price. Isn't this what you call the way of heaven?"
Tao Ziyuan raised her eyebrows, noncommittal, looked up at the night sky that was gradually covered with stars, said hello and was about to leave, and the person behind him who had just taken a step asked coldly,
"Tao Zikite, what are you waiting for? Is everything you have done really meaningful? Maintain this decaying dynasty. ”
Tao Ziyuan stopped walking, looked at the dirt on the white toe of his shoes that he didn't know when, and frowned,
"Before you appeared, the people here could continue to maintain their way of life for thousands of years, but after you appeared, it disrupted the pace of these people, and there are many roads ahead, and someone has to go. ”
Li Ao chuckled, "So you're going to accompany him on a doomed road?"
Doomed?
If a smart person like Li Xiangqing knows that it is a road that ends without a problem and will continue to walk, either there is no other better way, or the benefits that can be brought should not be underestimated.
Do you really want to go down with him?
In front of Li Ao, Tao Ziyuan didn't plan to show that he only cared about the storm pavilion and didn't care about the government, after all, he didn't care about it in the bureau, how could he get involved in the new-style school?
Not to mention...... And the man.
It's okay to deceive others, Li Ao, forget it. That's the person who can sketch Liqing's customs defense cloth for a whole year under the noses of so many people.
Tao Ziyuan took a deep breath, turned around and looked at Li Ao Zhanyan and said with a smile,
"Things in this world are easy to know what you can do, but who can say that it is wrong to know what you can't do?"
Looking at the girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, Li Ao had forgotten the last time she smiled like this.
Five years ago? 10 years ago?
Li Ao thought about it for a while, probably when that person was still there, she was not dressed in plain clothes, and she was a weak woman.
Although her light did not shine as brightly as it does now, she was one of the people who impressed her the most at that time, even if there was not much intersection, more hiding behind the man.
But there is a magical magic in those eyes about the curiosity of this new world, the tolerance and acceptance of all new things and new people, and the beauty of the world in those eyes.
It has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, it's just that everyone has a yearning for beautiful things and will be attracted by beautiful things.
Sweeping away the complicated thoughts in his mind, Li Ao said lightly, "Blind optimism does not mean that the result is good. ”
Tao Ziyuan smiled and looked at the rising star in the sky, "There was once an old father, he could have lived for decades, but he made a deal with his medical skills and lifespan in order to save people. I always felt that it was not worth it, but I was told that my father was not fighting for the cold walls of power, but for the families behind the walls, the innocent people who had exhausted all their strength to survive.
It's better to do what you know you can't do than to do nothing. ”
Li Ao didn't say anything for a long time, he would definitely think that such words were false when they came out of other people's mouths, but when they came out of this person's mouth, he actually believed seven or eight points.
"I don't know what, it's clear that the person you should hate the most is you, but there are some things to say to you. I'm in a good mood today, can we drink together?"
Tao Ziyuan made a rare invitation and said, the officials in Yandu City all knew that the newly appointed Captain of the Fengbo Pavilion was a cold person, and he looked kind, but in fact he was the most cold.
In the past few years, except for the emperor and the old man of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I have hardly seen her appear at anyone's banquet, let alone invite anyone to drink.
Although Li Ao has not been here all these years, there is news about the powerful people in the top positions of these platoons.
Naturally, he knew that Tao Zikite's invitation could be called an unprecedented thing, and it was inevitable that there would be some surprises immediately.
Just when Tao Ziyuan thought that he was silent because he didn't want to drink this glass of wine with him, he only heard the man spit out a word, "Okay." ”
Tao Ziyuan looked at the person opposite in surprise, "What did you say?"
The blue eyes moved slightly, and the deep voice was slightly hoarse,
"The peach blossom wine before was good, is there anything else?"
Looking at her puzzled gaze, Li Ao was very helpless, and said, "The kind of wine you invited me to drink when I was talented, if you don't have it, your daughter can be red." ”
As soon as the words fell, Li Ao saw the woman who had always wrapped herself very tightly and prevented outsiders from peeking into his heart smiling, with starry eyes and dazzling.
The blue feather fan in Tao Ziyuan's hand pointed at Li Ao and smiled, "You're not polite at all." ”
Li Ao was noncommittal, and said calmly, "You have spoken, why should I be polite? You people here always want to say no, and they don't like it very much." ”
Tao Ziyuan scolded with a smile, "This is the truth, you are really a bully, why didn't you say that you didn't like the stinky problems of our people at the beginning? Now that your position is saying this, no one dares to refute you, what a lot of scheming!"
Li Ao said lightly, "Don't you have a saying, call those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black." ”
Tao Ziyuan smiled, "It's really not a loss at all, but I like your temper more now, wait, you go back to your cave and wait, I'll go get the wine." ”
Saying that, Tao Ziyuan turned around and walked in the direction of the Wind Wave Pavilion, and in the blink of an eye, the figure disappeared into the dense forest.
Li Ao frowned, reminiscing about the word "Cave Mansion", couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, and muttered, "Immortal Cave Mansion, it's not bad." ”
