After eating, everyone dispersed, and An Xiaoyu returned to the dormitory and began to read.

Shao Jiaxian was a little surprised: "Why did you start reading books in the dormitory today?" Not going to find that boyfriend of yours? ”

An Xiaoyu smiled: "How can you say this tone like I can't live without Yushou?" ”

"Isn't it?" Shao Jiaxian lay on the bed: "Anyway, you two are really patient, if it were me, I guess I wouldn't be able to wait to go out for a walk, how can you be like you, just reading books in a basement all day long, chatting casually?" Eh, have you slept before? Well? Well? ”

An Xiaoyu's cheeks flushed when she was asked: "You stinky girl, why did you become so dirty?" ”

Shao Jiaxian was interested: "You just say if there is one, right?" ”

An Xiaoyu pursed her lips and shook her head.

"That'...... So where are you going? Have you taken off your clothes? Shao Jiaxian continued to be in high spirits.

A pillow flew in the air, Shao Jiaxian's face was smashed, and she almost suffocated to death: "You want to kill people?" ”

An Xiaoyu said viciously: "If you ask this kind of question again, I will strip you naked and hang you outside the dormitory window!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Shao Jiaxian laughed: "Then I'm really ...... How long has it been since I've seen you angry? Otherwise, I always feel that you are like a master in the world, and you are not on the same frequency as us at all. Do you know that behind their backs, they all say that we won't see you again in the future. ”

"Why?" An Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and her heart became a little guilty.

"Because you see, you're already a very tall master now, aren't you? The safety of the entire empire sometimes falls on your shoulders. You are getting farther and farther away from us, both in daily life and in worldview. Sometimes we also realize that when we are chatting, there are many topics that you don't interject. I know it's not that you don't understand, you just don't want to affect us. ”

An Xiaoyu smiled: "Then you are really wrong, I really don't understand what you said about those little fresh meat or something." Alas - I've been the number one person in the fandom for quite a few years, and you don't know how much I envy you. Do you think I really like the way I'm now? ”

Shao Jiaxian got up from the bed and asked, "What's the matter?" Isn't it cool to get ahead? ”

"If you want to say cool, in fact, sometimes it's quite cool. But after all, there are more times when it is unhappy, especially when you never know what kind of opponent you will encounter next time, and you don't know if the next accident can be solved as smoothly as now! Something like that. ”

"Oh......" Shao Jiaxian thought for a while and said, "I don't understand." ”

"Don't talk about that, do you think Yushou is good? You don't know how much headache I have right now. An Xiaoyu complained: "He has lived for tens of thousands of years, and I can live for a long time if there is no accident, but that doesn't mean that I don't want to have a youthful love affair with him!" ”

"Huh!" Shao Jiaxian began to sneer: "I don't understand, I can only live for more than a hundred years, I really don't understand your affairs." ”

An Xiaoyu smiled: "You person, why are you so small-tempered now?" ”

Shao Jiaxian said: "Eh, you said that there are more and more cultivators now, is it possible that there will be more and more cases like yours?" After all, cultivators live a long life! And basically, the appearance will also become very slow, and if you don't keep it even, there will be a lot of people who like to be with the practitioners. Especially those Yan Kong, this kind of handsome boyfriend for a lifetime, won't it be good? ”

An Xiaoyu rolled her eyes: "I think Yan Kong is yourself, right?" ”

"I'm Yan Kong, what's wrong? Long live Yan Kong! Shao Jiaxian said unconvinced: "Also, sister and brother love, like uncle, this kind of thing has been around for a long time." Isn't it a good opportunity for practitioners to enter the WTO? Cultivators have heard that there is something to refine their minds, and their minds are mature, which is simply the gospel of these people! ”

"But the biggest problem is longevity and concept." Speaking of these, An Xiaoyu became professional: "The empire definitely encourages the development of feelings in this regard, but the problem is that many cultivators now are children of the family, will they be willing to a large number of ordinary people to become the spouses of the children of the family?" ”

"Yikes! Ugly monopoly! Shao Jiaxian looked disgusted.

"Like Wei Qingxuan, he must not be worried, he will be the heir of the entire Wei family in the future, as long as he is good enough, whatever he does. In fact, everyone else is the same, the children of the family, as long as they are enough to leave, everything is casual. ”

"It's a pity that not so many people can be very good." Shao Jiaxian knew that he had diverged his thinking a little, and they ordinary people were still divided into three, six, nine, and so on, let alone a place like the cultivation world where the competition was more intense? Think about it, there are a lot of people who can't help themselves.

"So, these people must all look at the family's face. If you find a random object, the family will be unhappy, cut off their money and food, and block their way out, what awaits them in the future is a dead end, unless ......" An Xiaoyu said, suddenly stunned.

"Unless what?" Shao Jiaxian was suddenly excited.

An Xiaoyu looked at her: "You can't be someone you like someone, right?" ”

Shao Jiaxian's rare face flushed: "You just said unless what?" ”

An Xiaoyu had some scheming in her heart: "Unless there is a place where the momentum is strong, or no one dares to provoke, can give these people a place to live, even if the family cuts off their back road, but all cultivators with some courage and dreams will go to such a place to make a living." ”

"So, is there such a place?" Shao Jiaxian was curious.

"Yes!" An Xiaoyu suddenly smiled happily, pointed to himself and said, "Trajectory, Xinfan, and the Eastern Wilderness Army all welcome them!" And I don't think anyone dares to argue with me? ”

"I suddenly feel that you are uglier than a monopoly."

"What's ugly about me? If you think I can't do it here, I recommend you another place, this place is definitely the best choice. ”

"Where?"

"The Empire is preparing to establish a cult picket recently." An Xiaoyu said and thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "I just said, why does the empire have to let me be in charge of the affairs of the pickets, it turns out that I have this idea!" ”

"What is the Empire planning on you again?" Shao Jiaxian asked.

An Xiaoyu said: "You see, after the new court came to power, the decree passed day by day, and the Military Commission also strongly supported it, and the matter of the picket team was decided at the beginning, why hasn't it been established yet?" Rather wait-and-see? You even have to call me along. ”

"Why? Do you want to let you go over to be the backer of the pickets and get insurance? ”

"It can be said that it is double insurance." An Xiaoyu stretched out two fingers: "The pickets themselves are an insurance, they are directly supervised by the court, the military commission, and the non-governmental organizations in the cultivation world, and their functions are quite practical, and their rights are also very broad. As long as it is a matter in the cultivation world, they can take care of it, and if someone disagrees, violates the newly formulated regulations, or is deemed by them to be a foul violation, there will always be no good fruit to eat. ”

"You mean to say that the pickets themselves are a restriction on the great families, and they won't want to mess with the pickets if they don't have the necessary reason?"

"It's not that there is no reason for nothing, but for any reason they will not want to mess with the pickets. It's not a matter of status, it's a matter of status, but the pickets are now the balance of the empire in the cultivation world, and what they represent is the will of the people. If any party offends the pickets, even if they are not excused by the pickets, the civil influence is not something they can afford. ”

"Why?"

"Because the Great World of Cultivation has become a foregone conclusion, it is impossible for them to monopolize all the cultivators, the number of commoners is too large, and it is only a matter of time before geniuses appear. They can only guarantee their status by taking advantage of the current situation to stabilize relations and give a good impression to the people. ”

Shao Jiaxian smiled: "If you want to ensure your status, you also want to restrain the disciples of the family to restrict their freedom of love, are these people always so domineering?" ”

An Xiaoyu also smiled: "If it weren't for being so domineering, I'm afraid that the empire wouldn't be able to guarantee that most of the cultivators in the entire empire would be in their own hands for so many years." In other words, it's just that their way of thinking can't be changed, and it is also an inevitable phenomenon of the changing times. ”

"So what? The empire wants you to go to the pickets, just to let you sit in charge of the pickets, to ensure that there will be absolutely no conflicts, to prevent people from jumping over the wall? ”

"It's also to prevent people in the pickets from having too much power and causing some chaos, right?" An Xiaoyu said while thinking about it: "And no one dares to move the picket, the disciples in the family will inevitably flow out, and if the empire wants to quickly transform and change drastically and break the monopoly of the family, it will definitely take measures to promote it, so the picket team has been waiting." ”

"Waiting for you?"

"Another policy, another policy that is more troublesome, and also needs more scientific and technological support. I finally knew why the Empire was so interested in the research of origins, it turned out that what they wanted was not human development at all, but longevity. ”

"What?" Shao Jiaxian began to understand it.

"Well, I can't say more about that, but thanks to you, I thought that I had to go find someone to ask!" After An Xiaoyu finished speaking, he threw down his light brain and flew out of the window.

Shao Jiaxian sat on the bed and was stunned for a while, and threw the pillow on An Xiaoyu's bed: "What kind of person!" ”

In fact, it's not that An Xiaoyu is ruthless, but that the empire hasn't revealed the tone of this matter yet, and An Xiaoyu really doesn't want to talk to Shao Jiaxian. Before, she was addicted to learning and couldn't extricate herself, so she didn't pay attention to the recent policies of the empire at all, at most, she just looked at the official documents, and she was done when she knew.

But now that she is talking to Shao Jiaxian about the cultivation of the whole people, An Xiaoyu began to realize that if you want to improve the quality of the cultivation of the whole people and gradually spread the cultivation gene to the whole country, it is definitely a big game of chess, and it is obvious that normal intermarriage between practitioners and ordinary people has become the first and most important obstacle.

Just like Shao Jiaxian said, cultivators are often higher than ordinary people in terms of psychological and cultural quality. It's not that cultivators are more powerful, but they have a longer lifespan and a stable Dao heart, so compared to ordinary people, their attitude towards the world is obviously surprising.

They tend to see what will happen over a longer period of time, while the average person focuses on what is in front of them in their daily lives.

Such a concept of life, or such an attitude, is a fatal temptation for many people. Because in the process of cultivating the relationship between two people, in fact, the most important thing is to run in and tolerate each other, and with the presence of a cultivator, this tolerance will become very relaxed.

Easy love will make people feel more happy, An Xiaoyu is actually quite a very experienced one, of course, Lu Yuqi should have experienced it more deeply, but unfortunately she is a heartless person, and she doesn't realize what others have been putting up with her.

In order to make this situation more popular, the empire will of course formulate a series of policies.

The first thing An Xiaoyu can think of is the protection of marital rights, protecting the marriage of both parties from being forced to be interrupted due to the obstruction of the family or organization, so as to encourage more practitioners to pursue their love and promote more couples.

The second is some means of promotion, such as what An Xiaoyu thinks of now, about the guarantee of the life of ordinary people. The empire has obtained a lot of origin test materials, and even secretly does something himself, if he can come up with an elixir that prolongs the life of ordinary people, it is definitely an earth-shattering good news.

At least for ordinary people and practitioners who want to be together.

No matter how long the life span of such an elixir can be extended, three years and five years are not too little, and ten years and a hundred years are not too much, in short, as long as there is, it means that Imperial Technology has the ability to decipher the life span of the human body. In such a rapidly developing era of science and technology, it is not impossible for an enhanced version of life-enhancing drugs to appear in a few years.

In this way, they can spend a long life with their loved ones and have the right to choose their own survival time.

Of course, this elixir will not be offered unconditionally. An Xiaoyu felt that the empire should limit its output, or simply it would not be possible to produce so much from raw materials. Only couples who have a significant difference in life expectancy from the great practitioner and who have already decided to get married can apply for it.

And once used, the marriage relationship is less likely to be dissolved, otherwise there will be a lot of older young people in society. At a time when the majority of practitioners are not yet covered, such a situation will have a very negative impact on the renewal of society as a whole.

Commonly known as crotch pulling.

With such an elixir promotion, the picket as a platform, the combination of cultivators and ordinary people will become a mainstream. At the same time, it can also facilitate the formation of pickets, so that many people are willing to join the pickets, but they also need to be trained and vetted.

It's a mutually reinforcing situation.

The last thing An Xiaoyu can think of is the supervision of human ethics. The amount of elixir cannot be too large, and it may even be distributed according to the merits of the practitioner. This is also to ensure the exchange of blood in society, and try to replace those ordinary people who have no talent for cultivation.

If that's the case, there will be a lot of single-parent families. After the death of a practitioner's spouse, can the law allow the practitioner to remarry and have children when the child is an adult? After all, wanting to keep a person single for a hundred or two years is not a humane way.

Then it is necessary to limit the confusion of human relationships.

For example, a practitioner marries a woman who has no talent for cultivation, but her sister also marries a practitioner and produces a daughter with talent. When the woman dies, will the practitioner be able to marry her sister's daughter? This becomes a problem.

One of the foundations of human society is human ethics, and when ethics begin to be confused, the whole society will have extremely serious problems. This was followed by moral decay, and the whole social concept began to change in a foul direction.

This is not alarmist, but something that has been verified in countless histories, countless dynasties, and even within empires.

That's why the empire hasn't put the establishment of pickets on the agenda until now, and An Xiaoyu plans to make a deal with the empire this time, a mutually beneficial deal.

Guan Jue rubbed his eyebrows, looked at An Xiaoyu on the other side and said, "I knew that you were hiding a hand in the first place, what?" Are you going to hand things over? ”

An Xiaoyu shook his head: "It's impossible to hand it over, it's impossible to hand it over to you in this life, it's not that I don't want to, it's that the thing is in Yushou's hands." I can only get a little permission from him, and give what can be used in it to the Empire, of course, I have to charge some hardship fees. ”

Guan Jue smiled: "Even if you use me as a mouthpiece, you have to tell me what you want to do, right?" ”

An Xiaoyu said: "I want military control of the Eastern Wilderness Base!" ”

"What?" Guan Jue was taken aback, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he felt that An Xiaoyu's request was actually very formal, but the empire had not found a good reason and opportunity to take back the control of the Eastern Wilderness Base before, and had not thought about who to hand it over.

"You have to think about it, the base of the Eastern Wilderness is a big game of chess, in the entire Eastern Wilderness, there are thousands of resource bases from large and small, and the number of all garrisons is much more than the current establishment of your Eastern Wilderness Army. At least, there must be two million, which is the largest force outside of the Quartet border garrison."

An Xiaoyu smiled: "Do you think Si Mingyu can't control it?" Or can't I hold them down? ”

"After all, you are far away from the emperor, what is the Eastern Wilderness, can you still stay there every day? And you don't know the situation over there in the Eastern Wilderness, the garrisons at the base are all stationed by various forces, not the recruits pulled out from various tribes like your Eastern Wilderness Army, they are all veterans. ”

"After listening to you, I feel more at ease."

Guan Jue smiled: "Now that you have made up your mind, it seems that you are planning to change the water for the Donghuang base?" How long do you plan to spend replacing the garrison inside with your own people in the Eastern Wilderness? A year? Or two years? I think you're in a hurry, right? ”

An Xiaoyu spread out her hands: "The affairs of the Eastern Wilderness should have been taken care of by the people of the Eastern Wilderness themselves. ”
