Volume 1 Last Night's Stars Are Just Like You Chapter 64 The Old Mr. Who Collects Protection Money
Ye Xiao's heart froze, and he couldn't believe it: "How is it possible, you can kill someone?" Where does that order come from? When I came in just now, I saw people coming and going on the street, and it didn't seem to be very chaotic. β
Lao Ru glanced at Ye Xiao and said with a meaningful smile: "I don't know what order is in the eyes of Xiaoyou." β
Ye Xiao's heart sank, and he smiled thoughtfully: "Order, what is hidden behind it is violence, and only absolute violence can make chaos normal." β
"What Mr. means is that in this infinite city, there are one or several forces that can be called behemoths, and they control absolute violence, that is, the order of the entire infinite world."
The old man smiled: "The old man can be taught, what the old man means is that if you kill people here, you can get benefits, and the system will not punish you." But the rulers here, will make you pay. Of course, if you're part of the ruling class, that's a different story. β
Lao Ru stretched out two hands.
"Infinite City covers almost all the mercenaries in the world who have bronze ghost cards, but among these hundreds of millions of mercenaries, only ten organizations have emerged and become the top ten forces on the surface. As for which ten major forces they are, Old Man Rong sells it. Because I know too much, it doesn't help Xiaoyou much. β
"Of course, under these ten major forces, there are still many first-class forces, as well as second- and third-rate and non-mainstream small forces."
"The old man only said that he has a direct interest in Xiaoyou, the place where we are located is the eastern region of the infinite city, which is divided by three major forces, and the largest force that manages our area is called Yuelu Academy."
Ye Xiao's eyes were shocked, Yuelu Academy. In the real world, one of the "Six Great Courtyards of Confucianism", I didn't expect to have such a large piece of territory in the infinite world.
"I believe Xiaoyou already knows that several large organizations with great energy in the real world basically have their own operations here. Therefore, even if there is no systematic setting, if you cause killing at will, you will be killed by those personalities who control the order. β
Ye Xiao hugged her fists to show her gratitude, and transferred the 100 points, which Ye Xiaohua was willing.
"Hehe, the old man smiled, don't you want to know which side the old man belongs to?"
Ye Xiao replied with a smile: "From Mr. Wang's words just now, it is not difficult to guess that Mr. should be from Yuelu Academy. β
Lao Ru was noncommittal, apparently acquiescing to this fact. Instead, he smiled: "Xiaoyou can walk around this store at will and see if there is anything that can be eye-catching." Since I have a relationship with Xiaoyou, it's no problem to make a discount convenient. β
Ye Xiao didn't shirk either, and immediately walked around the storefront.
[Earth Crack Hammer (Enchantment), Limited Class: Barbarian, Berserker. List Price: 1800 pointsγ
[Tiger Tooth Greatsword (Refining +3), Limited Strength: B+.] List Price: 2000 Pointsγ
[Ice Ridge Thorn (inlay), limited class: thief, assassin. List Price: 4800 Pointsγ
Ye Xiao couldn't help but secretly sigh that this store is indeed a lot of money, and the rare boutique equipment in the outside world can be seen here.
Ye Xiao turned his head to another compartment where skills were sold and watched carefully.
Well? A skill book suddenly appeared in front of Ye Xiao's eyes.
[Soul Shocking, Limited: Possess Haoran Righteousness. Points: 1500 pointsγ
Ye Xiao stretched out his hand and took it out, and the specific information of the skill also appeared.
[Name: Soul Suppression]
[Limited: Possess Haoran Righteousness]
[Special Effect: Use the righteous qi in the chest to calm the soul and drink, and extremely restrain the soul body creatures. The caster will be given two psychic decisions, and if the immunity fails, they will enter a state of shock or stun. γ
Ye Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly, this skill book is very strange, and there is no occupation limit, as if it was specially prepared for people like herself who have obtained Haoran righteousness through other channels.
In fact, there are very few skills that directly act on the soul, that is, the spiritual level, after all, the spirit is the most difficult attribute for people to improve, and one attribute point can not get any benefit from the spirit, but it can be quickly strengthened when placed on several other attributes, which also leads to the general low spiritual attributes.
Ye Xiao took this skill book and found Lao Ru, and paid him another 1200 points in Lao Ru's curious eyes. It seems that Lao Ru's authority is still very large, and he can actually subtract 300 points from Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao hugged her fists and said goodbye to Lao Ru and walked out of the wooden door of this store.
Suddenly, Ye Xiao's heart froze, and he saw a man with a black hood walking over, stepping into the store, and passing by Ye Xiao.
The man under the hood glanced at Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao seemed to see the corpse mountain and sea of blood in the other party's eyes, and an incomparably rich bloody aura rushed straight to Ye Xiao's divine court.
Ye Xiao's eyes shot out a sword intent visible to the naked eye, turning into a wave that washed away the rolling sea of blood, and a majestic sword intent was attracted by Ye Xiao and confronted the sea of blood.
"Illusionist? Or an assassin? There is such a strong killing intent. Ye Xiao frowned slightly, but did not move. Because Ye Xiao sensed that the other party was trying his best to control his killing intent and not release it, but he couldn't completely control it, and the previous sea of blood was also an unintentional scene.
This also made Ye Xiao even more surprised, an unintentional look could make him fall into an illusion, such strength was really unfathomable.
Inside the door, the voice of the old man came softly, like a breeze blowing on the hills.
"The emperor has built it. When the five blessings are gathered, the common people are covered with tin. But when the people are in Ruji. Xiru Baoji: All the common people, there are no prostitute friends, no people have virtue, but the emperor is the extreme. All the common people, there are deeds, there are guards, and you will read them. β
The hooded man's murderous aura gradually subsided, and finally subsided, and his eyes returned to clarity.
"I'm sorry." The man arched his hand towards Ye Xiao
Ye Xiao silently returned the salute, signaling that it was okay, and walked into the distance again, but he couldn't help but guess in his heart.
"What a powerful old Confucian." Ye Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
The man was unfathomable, but the old Confucian was even more terrifying. Just reciting a paragraph casually can make the man's murderous aura like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood quickly calm down. Ye Xiao was awe-inspiring in his heart, that old Confucian was not using skills, he was just reading a passage, Ye Xiao knew very well that that passage was from the Confucian classic "Shangshu. Hong Fan", it has no effect on quelling the killing intent at all, and the powerful thing is that the old Confucian can actually participate in a mediocre and peaceful thought, and he actually suppressed the man's killing intent.
"It seems that the water in this infinite city is very deep." While sighing, Ye Xiao walked to the most lively neighborhood that Lao Ru said before.
This street is indeed crowded, and it is surrounded by stalls, some buying and some selling. It made Ye Xiao addicted to shopping stalls.
--- ---
In the old Confucian's wooden house, the old Confucian poured a cup of tea for the hooded man.
"What, this time it didn't go well? It's been a long time since you couldn't control your killing intent. Did you use that trick? β
The hooded man took the tea, and a slightly magnetic voice rang out.
"Yes, I accidentally ran into a few old ghosts of the demon clan, and after a few moves, I was slightly injured."
"Those businesses are not bad, they make enough money, and they don't cheat the people too much. I think we can keep it for now. β
"There's a little change in the Green Gang, and I've already dealt with some of the guys who don't have long eyes."
"This is this month's offering in the Eastern Regions, as well as the income of our territory in reality."
The man pulled a storage ring out of his bosom and placed it on the table.
Lao Ru grabbed a small handful of tea leaves, filled them with a tea set, and smiled casually.
"You said that I was a handful of years old, and I actually occupied the land as the king, doing what only the underworld did, collecting protection money, and enclosing territory. Is it an insult to my Confucian sages, ancestors? β
If Ye Xiao were again, he would definitely be quite surprised.
An old Confucian is actually the godfather of the underworld?
This reversal is inevitably too big.
The man took a sip of tea and said in a sullen voice: "How do you know what you old scholar thinks about all day long, I only know that the old guy who taught the "One Saint and Three Kings" will definitely not do anything that is sorry for the country and the nation. β
The old man knocked lightly on the table and said noncommittally: "Four apprentices, you are the most unproductive, stay with me, the old man, because you are afraid that I will be assassinated by the ancestor of the ghost clan one day?" You said that you have been with me for so many years, not to mention anything else, how much has your strength been delayed? β
"By the way, the young man I met when I entered the door just now was interesting."
The man was a little bright, looked at the old man and changed the topic: "That sword intent is not something that ordinary people can raise. β
The old Confucian smiled: "It's really interesting, that kid has sword intent, and I also have the heroic righteousness of my Confucianism." β
"There is also a fierce and abnormal internal force. The old man looked at the meridians in his body, the acupuncture points were like whirlpools, and the internal force was like tides. β
The man raised his eyebrows and asked: "Don't you hate dealing with the government and those people in the army the most, why do you still take a lot of care of him, the reduction of three hundred points, and so many messages that are not transmitted, which is enough to make a rookie grow up quickly." β
The old man shook his head and said, "In terms of killing power, you can be said to have stood at the peak among your peers. But this eyesight is still inferior to your senior brother. β
"That kid, in addition to the sword intent you care about the most, he is also blessed with a kind of Buddha power by the power."
The man looked curious: "Buddha power? When I confronted him spiritually, I didn't find the manifestation of Buddha's power. β
A solemn touch flashed in the eyes of the old Confucian and said: "It is indeed a Buddha power, when I touched his Divine Court Purple Mansion with Haoran righteousness, I was blocked by a force of cause and effect in the underworld.
The man was shocked: "I can block your prying eyes, I'm afraid only those old monsters in the Mahayana Buddhism can do it." β
The old man looked at the southeast and spit out two words.
"Jizo."
The man sighed slightly, with a faint shock in his expression.
"It is rumored that Jiuhua Golden Body Bodhisattva and mad monk Ye Wujie once married a wife and had children, could it be the second son?"
The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Whether it is the son of that reckless monk or not, the old man has seen the Buddha power in the child's divine court more than once." Since it is the queen of the deceased, then I have to take care of it in a reasonable way. β
The man's heart moved, and his heart was clear.
Most of the blessings of that Buddha power came from that legendary person.
The contemporary king of Jiuhua Mountain - lame monk!
It was an existence that he had to look up to even with his "king-level" strength, and it was a legend of a generation.
Below Jiuhua, above the Yellow Spring, there is the king of Jizo, who suppresses hell and guards the six reincarnations.
