228. Preparing for a rainy day (1)
After settling down with Mi'er and Gao Xi's respective residences, Gao Ran pulled Gao Xi and went straight to his room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hey, time is pressing, I have two important things that you need to do for me as soon as possible!"
"What?"
"Hmm...... One, I need you to help me find out the distribution of all the Dong family's forces in the Jiao Kingdom. Even if you can't find out the exact location, at least you have to find out the approximate area of their influence.
"In the future, as long as there is an area covered by their forces, I can avoid it!
"Two, when you've done this first thing, I'll give you a list. If any of the people on his list come to you for help, try to help them. If necessary, you can use the resources of the Heavenly Pavilion in my name. In this way, all the consequences will be borne by me, and Qiu Yueze will not blame you. But don't worry, he won't do anything to me easily. So, in case something happens, it's definitely better for me to be punished than you to be punished!
"Hehe, but to get back to business, I think it's time for me to start cultivating my own power!"
After Gao Xi listened, he didn't think about it in detail, and directly responded to Gao Ran's request. I just said, "Okay! I know what to do." ”
But the reason why he reacted like this was not because he had already obeyed Gao Ran's words now, but because he had already had his own plans about this a long time ago: Indeed, all along, what Gao Ran has been used to is nothing more than the trick of "taking advantage of the situation to suppress the situation". But no matter which "potential" it is, in fact, it does not belong to herself, naturally, it is destined that she will not be able to rely on them for a long time, let alone rely on them for a lifetime!
It was precisely because he had these considerations in his heart that Gao Xi had already guessed the possible concerns in Gao Ran's heart at the moment.
It's just that even if Gao Ran didn't take the initiative to mention it at this moment, Gao Xi originally planned to start cultivating forces for her that would only obey the two of them: Jiaoguo is far away from Yunxiang Country, and its main forces are mostly in Yunxiang Kingdom, Gao, An, Fu Sanjia, and Yun Clan's royal family; And the only thing they need to take into account at present is the Dong family. Therefore, for Gao Ran to consciously find out the distribution of the Dong family's power in the Jiaoguo Kingdom and the intentions behind it, he can naturally think of it.
It's just that what Gao Xi doesn't know is that the reason why Gao Ran thought of this and must put this point on the first thing to deal with is mainly because she strayed into the Dong family's sphere of influence before, and almost died because of it...... She just didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past!--since she knew where she was going would die, if she didn't want to die, she didn't want to go there!
But Gao Xi still doesn't know about this, he just thinks wishfully: they really have a tacit understanding, and the ideas of the two coincide!
While he couldn't help but feel a little happy because of this, Gao Xi was willing to go and finish this matter for Gao Ran as soon as possible. In this way, it is better to start focusing on the matter of cultivating power as soon as possible......
But even if you want to do it as soon as possible, you are not in a hurry to do it at this time, and then ......
"Ran'er, now that the business has been discussed, can you tell me about your 'little uncle' now?
"As far as I know, except for the old Zhao seniors, you shouldn't know any of the other people in the 'Medical Valley'...... So, how did you meet?"
"Well, it's true that in the past few years, although Master has always been by my side, I really haven't had any contact with other fellow disciples other than him.
"However, even if we don't know each other, if we meet, we can still recognize each other's identities in an instant! However, this kind of strange fragrance is not smelled by ourselves and non-people in our own sect, and it is only when we meet the same door that we can easily smell this strange fragrance on the other person......
This is done in order to avoid attracting the attention of outsiders because of carrying a different fragrance, and secondly, it is also for fear that if you are used to smelling your own aroma, after a long time, you will not be able to immediately notice it when you encounter a similar fragrance, and the reason why you want to ensure that you can immediately identify each other's identities is also to avoid accidentally hurting each other because you don't know each other. -- The first article of this door rule is that it is forbidden to kill each other. - Except, of course, mutineers.
"However, even if you are an outsider, it should not be difficult to understand why we deliberately use this method to prevent our fellow disciples from killing each other due to ignorance, right?"
"Hmm......" Gao Xi groaned slightly, and then replied vaguely with some uncertainty, "I understand ...... slightly"
"Okay, then I'll explain it to you in detail!" knew that if she didn't explain this reason to Gao Xi, it would be difficult for her to make him understand the reasonableness that she and Uncle Xiao could indeed "see at first sight". There was no way, so Gao Ran had to patiently explain, "You should know that although there are not many disciples in this sect, unlike other sects, most of us are wandering and uncertain. In addition, over the generations, everyone has little contact with each other on weekdays...... In this way, over time, do they have any disciples who have been able to teach and accept apprentices? Most of us do not know each other......
"I see...... So, you will know each other just because you both smell each other's unique fragrances?
"Oh, this one, Master said, and he doesn't know the principle of this himself...... He only knew that this was a rule that had been established since the 'first generation': all disciples of this sect must take the unique secret medicine before practicing the unique internal strength. However, the specific formula of the secret medicine began to change after a few generations - in order to prevent the person taking the drug from taking advantage of the drug's defects to take advantage of the drug's shortcomings without affecting the efficacy.
"Speaking of this 'opportunistic shortcut', if you just want to take a shortcut to refine to the top level of internal strength as soon as possible without reckless consequences, it is still a trivial matter; I am afraid that some people with unscrupulous intentions will use this opportunistic mind in a place that should not be used even more, so that in the end the whole door will be harmed!
"Although there are not many disciples in this sect, it is still not possible to completely eliminate the inclusion of a few people who are unscrupulous and prefer opportunism...... Come to think of it, there must have been such people before, so some people began to improve the formula to restrain it......
"In short, by the time it came to my master's generation, the recipe of that secret medicine would already have a lot of flexibility. And the reason why I can smell the strange fragrance is also because I have taken the secret medicine. It was only after that that that I began to smell the strange fragrance on Master's body!
"It's just that as my own skills have grown, the strange fragrance on the master's body that I can smell has faded...... Therefore, I have some suspicions that the intensity of the fragrance that I can smell on the other party's body may be related to the gap between my skill and the other person's skill! The greater the gap in skill, the stronger the aroma that can be smelled on the other party; on the contrary, the smaller the gap, the weaker the fragrance that can be smelled; and if the skill is comparable, maybe the fragrance that can be smelled will be absent! But no matter how faint, in the eyes of the same door, the fragrance can still be easily distinguished from each other and other outsiders.
"However, it cannot be ruled out that it may be because Master has been with me for too long, so that I have long been accustomed to the smell, and over time, I don't feel that Master's aroma is as strong as when I first smelled it......
"But even if I don't rule out the possibility of 'getting used to it,' I can still be sure that Uncle Xiao's skill must not be under Master!--Because when I first met him, I immediately smelled a strange fragrance on his body that was very similar to Master! Moreover, the concentration of the strange fragrance on his body was comparable to the concentration of the strange fragrance on Master when I first smelled it!
"So I speculate that if it weren't for the regression of my own skills, then it must be that Uncle Xiao's current internal strength cultivation is far better than Master's internal strength cultivation a few years ago......! It may be even higher than Master's current internal cultivation!"
