Chapter 17: Troubled Times

After Lei Dong left, Osheng spoke: "This person is insidious and cunning at first glance, and there must be nothing good to cooperate with him." ”

"You're wrong, the best way for us to do it now is to cooperate with the Water Cloud Empire. Leng Yushi looked at Osheng calmly and said.

"Then why do you want to refuse?" asked Oyu curiously.

Leng Yushi didn't speak, turned his head to look at Nalan Zhe, and the meaning of his eyes seemed to be, what do you think?

Nalan Zhe first analyzed the situation in his heart.

At present, although the people of Sunflower have retreated, the killer is ruthless, and he will definitely gather together when he has the opportunity, so what he has won is only a fragment of peace.

Although Mr. Skeleton's side has not yet arrived, with their well-informed, it must not be too far, and they are also the most tricky, because their murderous intentions are the most resolute and decisive.

Lei Dong's side, although there is no killing opportunity for the time being, but it is not easy to say, if the time comes to face the forces of the three parties at the same time, it is really difficult to deal with, or rather, it is impossible to deal with it at all, unless there is a turnaround.

And the cooperation of Thunderbolt may be that turning point.

But why don't you agree to the cold language poem, it's actually simple.

Thinking of this, Nalan Zhe somewhat understood the meaning of Leng Yushi, and said to Osheng: "If we have a treasure and want to sell it for one million, but the buyer is only willing to pay 100,000, then what should we do?"

Listening to Nalan Zhe's words, Osheng seemed to understand something, turned his head, and saw Leng Yushi facing Nalan Zhe, nodding appreciatively.

Xiao Zhe is right, this is exactly the case. Lei Dong said it nicely. But there is no sincerity in cooperation at all, and hastily agreeing to it is not good for us. Moreover, we lack bargaining chips. Leng Yushi looked at Osheng and spoke eloquently.

"I'm not good at scheming, you just say what to do next. Oyo rubbed his head and had a headache.

Leng Yushi looked at Osheng with a smile and shook his head, and said, "Just like Xiao Zhe said, there is such a treasure, we want to sell it for a million." But Lei Dong only wants to spend 100,000. So what to do?"

Oosheng said without thinking: "It's very simple, tell him that we don't sell, and then tell him." Let's get a minimum of 1 million. ”

"Not true. Wrong. Nalan Zhe smiled. came up and interjected, "Maybe the other party thinks your stuff is worth 100,000?"

Leng Yushi didn't speak, and nodded.

"I don't know what to do. You two sang and sang like this, and it confused me. Osheng thought powerlessly, and looked helpless.

"Chips, what we have to do is to show the chips and let the other party see the value of the treasure, which is indeed worth a million evidence. Am I right?" Nalan Zhe glanced at Leng Yushi.

Leng Yushi nodded and said, "So, don't worry, wait and see, I don't know what Lu Dao is for, I always feel that there are some things on Lei Dong's side that we don't understand." It seems that he is more looking forward to working together than we are, and I have to figure out why. ”

"Okay, okay, you guys take your time, I'll go to bed. Osheng yawned and walked away on his own, leaving only Nalan Zhe and Leng Yushi in the living room.

"Aren't you sleepy?" asked Nalan Zhe Leng Yushi.

"Not sleepy, what about you?"

"I'm not sleepy either. Nalan Zhe had been standing, and when he saw that the chair next to Leng Yushi was empty, he sat down.

"I have dealt with Lei Dong for many years, he is a person who is good at hiding his emotions, doing things well, and he is as careful as a hair, you also saw it just now, he can see through me from his teeth alone, so negotiate with him, pay more attention to ten more eyes. Nalan Zhe said slightly depressed.

"Actually, with our current situation, there is not much way back. Therefore, even if the final result is not ideal, I am afraid that it will have to follow the meaning of thunder. Leng Yushi showed a worried face.

Nalan Zhe nodded, this point, he had already thought of it, "Yes, Sunflower's people are not easy to deal with, and Mr. Skeleton's side is even more difficult to deal with, only Lei Dong is here, there seems to be a trace of life, and I don't know what his cooperation requirements are." ”

"I guess, it should be to ask my mother to make some official announcements and other things, so that the world knows that the ghost island and the Water Cloud Empire have officially reached some kind of cooperation, of course, the specific content will be much more refined, such as trade exchanges, the opening of the border, and so on. Leng Yushi frowned slightly and said thoughtfully.

"Will this have any impact on Ghost Island, especially the Bright Moon Emperor?" Nalan Zhe didn't know much about this part.

"The impact is too great!"

"First of all, this is an alliance under the city, so all the details must be in favor of the Water Cloud Empire, but not in favor of Ghost Island.

Secondly, the pattern of the three major countries of the Shuiyun Continent has not changed in the past three hundred years, if the mother of the family openly declares that she will cooperate with the Shuiyun Empire, it is equivalent to breaking the pattern of the world's realm that has been stable, and it will trigger a series of chain reactions.

Again, just as the Shuiyun Empire is afraid of the Hero Kingdom uniting with Princess Caiyue, the Hero Kingdom and Princess Caiyue are also afraid of the cooperation between the Shuiyun Empire and her mother, when the time comes, it will definitely cause all kinds of entanglements, and there may even be large-scale bloodshed such as war.

Therefore, whether it is cooperation or not, the world will not be as peaceful as Lei Dong said, and the troubled times are coming. ”

"Sometimes, I really doubt if you're really only fifteen. Nalan Zhe pursed his lips, looked at Leng Yu Shi and couldn't help laughing, Leng Yu Poem's analysis penetrated into it, interlocking slightly, how could this kind of rigorous logic and calm judgment be what a fifteen-year-old girl could have?

Shouldn't a fifteen-year-old girl be a cutie who has just fallen in love and can't sleep because a handsome guy glanced at her?

And Leng Yu Shi seems to have already passed adolescence, spent the flower season and rainy season, and became a mature woman.

Leng Yushi couldn't help but laugh when she heard Nalan Zhe's flattery, and showed a rare naughty expression, saying, "Are you ready to call me Auntie?" ”

......

I slept soundly, and when I woke up, it was almost noon.

Nalan Zhe went to visit Uncle Cat first, Uncle Cat was still weak, but it was obviously much better than yesterday, when Nalan Zhe went, Granny Magnolia was changing the medicine for Uncle Cat, and she couldn't say what it was, Nalan Zhe felt that Uncle Cat and Granny Magnolia must ...... Well, there's a story.

However, Uncle Cat is in his seventies, and Mother-in-law Yulan is only in her sixties, and the age difference is not small, could it be that the two were once a pair of lovers?

"Smack!"

Nalan Zhe's head was knocked on the knuckles of Granny Magnolia.

"Little ghost, don't think about it!" Granny Magnolia dropped this sentence and left without looking back.

At this time, Nalan Zhe remembered that Granny Magnolia has the special ability to guess people's minds.

"Grandpa Cat, Granny Magnolia is so powerful that she can always guess what I'm thinking. Nalan Zhe rubbed his head and said with half admiration and half displeasure.

"Ha Lu, yes, she can guess what others think, so she can't marry Lu, which man dares to marry such a wife. Uncle Cat smiled heartily and seemed to be very happy.

"Grandpa Cat, did you ...... in the past Belch...... Is it ......?" Naranzhe didn't know how to ask.

"Probably what you think, more than forty years ago, she learned to mix soul medicine with me, but at that time I was just a poor boy with nothing, but she was a young lady, and her family disagreed, so they separated after the end. In forty years, I haven't seen it a few times. ”

When Uncle Mao spoke, his face was calm, and he couldn't see regret or hear regret, but Nalan Zhe believed that in Uncle Mao's heart, it would definitely not be what his face showed, and the story between him and Granny Yulan would definitely not be as simple as he said.

But if you ask further, it involves privacy, Nalan Zhe stopped his mouth with interest, and he didn't know what Lu Dao thought, so he said casually: "Mother-in-law Yulan has never married in her life." ”

When Uncle Mao heard Nalan Zhe's words, he sighed, shook his head and said, "At the beginning, she wanted to elope with me, go to a place that no one knows, and live a small life, but I didn't agree."

I think that an eldest lady like her must have made a decision with a hot brain, and there will always be times when she regrets it in the future. At that time, I didn't want to hear anything, I knew that Lu Dao would not marry you, so I rejected her.

I don't know if she will never marry.

However, this life has passed, and there is nothing to worry about, so be it, it's good.

Xiao Zhe, Yulan told me about you and Leng Yatou, and she said that Leng Yatou had a lot of secrets in her heart, and even she couldn't see it.

But she said that the cold girl is a good girl.

So, little Zhe, you-"

"Ahem, Grandpa Cat, tea, tea. Nalan Zhe was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly made an excuse to fool around.

"Ha Luha, well, don't talk about that. By the way, Yulan said that Leng Ya is very smart, and in only three or two days, she has mastered the essentials of the illusion technique, and she can correctly release a considerable amount of illusion technique, which is really ...... At her age, the original shy girl couldn't do it. ”

"It turns out that Granny Yulan came to her to teach her illusions, I said, it was mysterious. Thinking of Leng Yushi's rapid progress, Nalan Zhe was a little envious, jealous and hateful.

"By the way, Grandpa Cat, I have already eaten the Soul Condensing Pill, and the effect is indeed very obvious, and I can now control the fire and water martial spirits freely. For other departments, there are some fur skills, but there are no proficient ones yet. ”

"Don't worry, don't worry, you can't chew too much, you can't reach it quickly, you can now master the fire martial soul and the water martial soul, and you can know some high-level martial arts skills, which is already very powerful, don't think about controlling the martial souls of other departments, but you can polish your illusion skills." ”

"Yes, yes. Nalan Zhe felt that Uncle Cat had said the point all of a sudden, "I want to improve my illusion skills, but Granny Yulan won't teach me, it seems that I have to go through the back door of Grandpa Cat." (To be continued......)
