Chapter 284: Long Aotian
The sun rises in the east, and everything awakens.
The bright sunlight shines on the land, and the previously cold streets become warmer, and the flow of people gradually increases.
In a restaurant, there are more than a dozen square tables in the bright lobby, and there are already many customers at this time, and they are full of seven or eight percent.
Most of these people are rich and free, at least they don't have to worry about eating and drinking, come here in the morning to order a pot of fragrant tea, eat breakfast in a leisurely manner, and chat with acquaintances.
Of course, it is also important to listen to gossip and pay attention to what major events are happening inside and outside Gaozhou City.
Especially at this sensitive time.
At this time, there are people talking about related topics. What is said in it is not only related to the city where they are located, but also related to the whole world.
"The people of the Holy Empire are so arrogant, too arrogant. I heard that at this meeting, our city lord was so angry that his face turned blue and he left the table. ”
A middle-aged man with a sven face said angrily.
"People are strong and powerful, and the backers behind them can scare individuals to death if they say it, so they are naturally qualified to be arrogant and arrogant."
The person who lifted the bar was short and fat, but there was also resentment in his tone.
The middle-aged man retorted: "Even if it is the number one power in the continent, even if it has the support of the Holy See of Light behind it, our Southern Federation has a backbone, and we will never grovel and give in to the enemy's strength because of it." ”
"You're wrong." The short and fat man's tone was cold, "The Federation has been dissolved, and there is no Southern Federation anymore. ”
"So what, the cities are still in charge of the original city lords, and the same people who preside over and participate in the joint meetings are still the same people. Our Southern Federation is still the same as before, but with a name removed. ”
Humpty and fat people seem to be born with a penchant for raising the bar: "A large territory in the east of the Riga Empire, except for the Brilliant Emperor ** team led by General Tang Feng, the people who live and work there now are still the same people." According to your logic, is that land still part of the Riga Empire? ”
The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but he was speechless and unable to refute.
The rest of the guests listened with relish, drank two sips of tea from time to time, and had long been accustomed to the two people's verbal swords, and it was not strange.
But there are faint concerns about the future prospects of the Confederates, or the lands that were once under the Confederates.
The short and fat man saw that he had his opponent, but there was not much smugness on his face.
"The Holy Empire has said that the two countries are merging and promoting each other. But as far as our small body is concerned, once it is merged, it will not be swallowed cleanly. ”
A guest next to him interjected: "It depends on the situation, it will be sooner or later." Our Southern Federation has disintegrated like this, and it is difficult to say that there is no Holy Empire and the Holy See of Light. ”
The middle-aged man also rejoined the discussion: "What's so hard to say, it's 100% their ghost." You see, in the past ten years, the countries on the continent of Oss have been separated and changed, and there is no shadow of them. Now the Southern Federation is still top of our Gaozhou City and the nearby city lords, not to mention the surrender faction, even those original centrists who swayed left and right, and now they are also beginning to lean towards the side of the Holy Empire. Alas~ It's all to blame on that Anthony, if it weren't for him annoying the Holy See of Light, how could there be so many incidents on the continent now. ”
His old opponents, who specialize in raising the bar, scoffed at this statement.
"You know what a! Can General Anthony be blamed for this? The Holy See of Light harbors evil intentions and plots to unify the whole world, which has long been decided. Even without General Anthony, they would have done the same. Moreover, without the Great General and his apprentice General Tang Feng making a move, the Bright Sect would suffer serious losses regardless of whether it was a high-level powerhouse or an elite army, and the pace of devouring the world would only be faster than it is now. ”
At this moment, a young voice next to him interjected to ask.
"Listening to the two of you just now, is there a big mess in the world now? How could it have anything to do with the great battle that took place in the palace of the glorious empire thousands of miles away ten years ago? ”
The short and fat man looked at the voice and saw that it was a young man of about twenty years old, with a delicate appearance, gentle and sunny.
"This son, you're not a local, are you?"
Although it was a questioning tone, he already had the answer in his own heart.
Most of the customers of this restaurant are nearby residents, and they are already familiar with each other. Suddenly a fresh face appeared, of course, you can see it at a glance. Coupled with the fact that young people's outfits have obvious off-site characteristics, it is not difficult to guess.
After receiving an affirmative reply, the short and fat man was a little excited and talked about it.
"Childe doesn't know that in recent years, this Holy Empire has been in the Oss continent in a series of ways, creating incidents everywhere, causing peace in the world, which is extremely hateful. And the beginning of this matter can be started from the glorious empire ten years ago. ”
It turned out that the Southern Federation was commercially developed and well-informed, and the city lords couldn't help but speak, even if it was a small citizen who couldn't go out all his life, he could easily learn about the world's major events.
In this regard, these restaurant guests, who are not big names, have a natural sense of superiority over outsiders.
"Anthony alone in the Holy See of Light" such a heroic and legendary event has long been a household name in the Southern Federation. The short and fat man admired Anthony so much that he did everything possible to investigate and study his deeds back then to understand the details.
But when he wants to talk and share with others, he is helpless that the people around him are also well-informed, and they know not much less than him, who is impatient to listen to his repeated nagging.
This thing has always made him uncomfortable, and now a foreigner who doesn't know anything has finally appeared, isn't that the best listener? And how can a short and fat person let it go so easily.
The short and fat man was too excited to notice anything strange - he and the middle-aged man had only mentioned Anthony's move with the Holy See of Light before, but they didn't go into any more details. As soon as the young man opened his mouth, he pointed out that the incident had happened in the glorious imperial palace ten years ago, and he was obviously not ignorant of the matter.
“…… You don't know how critical the situation was. The Bright Sect not only despicably threatened Princess Arina as a hostage, but also arranged for tens of thousands of elite troops to ambush the surroundings, and there were almost two hundred gold-level powerhouses who attacked......"
That young man actually just wanted to listen to the current general trend of the world, for the earth-shattering battle back then, it was his personal experience, why listen to others' explanations.
It's just that he is very self-contained, and patient and smiling all the time, and expressing considerable interest in the short and fat mouth-watering narration.
But as he listened, he finally felt that something was wrong.
The situation that the other party said was a little different from what he remembered. Could it be that too much time has passed, and my memory has deteriorated?
"Well, I'm sorry, but please allow me to interrupt. Back then, the Bright Sect dispatched 10,000 troops, and there were 200 top powerhouses who had entered the fourth realm? ”
The short and fat man was talking energetically, and he was a little unhappy when he was interrupted. But when I saw the audience who was the most important, I endured it.
"Of course, how much do you think? But you don't have to worry, General Anthony has great powers, and the enemy lineup is not in his heart yet......"
Seeing that the other party insisted, the young man had no choice but to retreat silently.
But soon, he couldn't help but ask questions.
"More than a million warriors like apes, all as tall as the Taining Snow Mountain? This, can they be stuffed in this palace? ”
The short and fat man, who was already immersed in his own world, finally became angry.
"Is it you saying or I saying it, is it you clear or am I clear? Listen to the story, listen to the story, you are always interrupted, and you can't get along with me, right!? ”
It was me who was wrong! Dare you old man is telling a story, I thought it was me.
The young man threw his hands high and completely surrendered.
……
After finally listening to the short and fat man, the young man stood up and bowed his hand to him: "Thank you for the advice." There's still something to do, so I'll take my leave first. I asked for this tea money from Mr., which can be regarded as a thank you to Mr. ”
Humpty and Fat people are quite satisfied, and today they not only satisfied what they said, but also saved a sum of money. Although the amount is small, after all, it is earned back by oneself, and the meaning is very different.
His eyes became more friendly as he looked at the young man who was about to turn away.
Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a piece of paper full of words written on it in the young man's hand, his face full of surprise.
"This son, are you going to the City Lord's Mansion to apply for a job as a teacher?"
The young man raised the recruitment announcement in his hand and replied affirmatively: "Yes, is there anything wrong?" ”
The surrounding diners listened to his question, and a strange look appeared on their faces.
The short and fat man rubbed his hands together and said hesitantly: "You should know that the city lord is recruiting teachers for the young city lord. And this young city lord ...... I don't want to say much, you just need to know that there are already eight teachers who have applied for the job before you. Two of them took the initiative to ask the lord of the city to resign, four were driven away by the young lord of the city, and one was said to have gone crazy later, and I don't know if it has anything to do with here. ”
The young man listened carefully to him and felt that the numbers were a little wrong.
"And another?"
The short and fat man looked sad, as if he felt the same way.
"The last one was carried out and taken back to his house, because he was unconscious......"
The young man was stunned, as if he did not expect that the student he was about to teach would be so violent.
"Thanks for the reminder, farewell!"
He turned around and left the restaurant, but he still had the announcement in his hand and didn't throw it away.
The young man walked unhurriedly, asking for directions to someone on the way, and soon found the city lord's mansion.
"You say, you're here to apply to be a teacher?" Standing in front of the young man was a steward-looking goatee, skeptical and disbelieving.
"Not bad." The young man replied plainly but affirmatively.
Goatee nodded and asked, "Okay, then what's your name?" ”
The young man wandered for a short time, as if he couldn't even remember his name.
The original name must not be used, although he is not afraid of the Bright Holy See, but after all, it is still troublesome.
What's that called?
The name of this Southern Federation is very similar to that of another world, so it is better to have a local name.
He had a plan in his heart, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a mischievous smile.
"My name is Long Aotian."
