Ji Tuo? Who is he from Ji Yun? And Ji Yun is still a nobleman in the southern kingdom......

Jue looked at Ji Tuo in front of him.

Cohen once told Jue that the Ji family was on the side of the aristocratic faction, so Jue thought that it should not be a good thing for Ji Tuo to find him this time.

"It turned out to be a nobleman," Jue was full of suspicion in his heart, but he still talked to Ji Tuo in a very respectful attitude, "Did you find me for any purpose this time?"

Ji Tuo picked up the small statue on the table next to him and looked at it, and then said slowly: "Yes, there are indeed some things. ”

At this time, after observing the subconscious meaning behind Ji Tuo, Nuo Xiaoyi slowly walked out of the door, and then slowly closed the door.

Now, there are only two people in the room, Jue and Ji Tuo.

Is there something unspeakable?Jue looked around the room with his elven eyes, and he discovered the magic circuit hidden in the room—spells used to insulate sound and put surveillance.

"Now that the troublesome people are gone, you can say it. Jue looked at the somewhat old man in front of him.

Ji Tuo silently bowed to Jue.

"Thank you. ”

What? Ji Tuo's behavior obviously confused Jue.

Jue's whole person was instantly stunned.

"Thank you for pulling the dog girl back from the brink of death, thank you so much!" Ji Tuo said with a little choked up.

After hearing this, Jue took a deep breath to adjust his state, and then said, "Ah, it's okay, just don't let her use that magic weapon in the future." ”

"Yes, we'll pay attention to that as well. Ji Tuo hurriedly said, "And thank you for the elixir you provided, which can prolong the life of the dog girl, and in this way, she can join hands with her beloved." ”

Hand in hand? Jue played with the word in his mind after hearing this.

"Excuse me, have you seen the collapse?" Jue asked.

"Do you mean Honda-sama? What a great guy...... No, what a good dragon. Ji Tuo raised his body and said.

"In other words, you approve of letting Bang be your son-in-law?"

"If the noble blood of the dragon clan can flow from the Ji family, I have no reason to refuse. Originally, I was very worried about the lifespan of the two, but Lord Bang said that you gave him an elixir that can prolong the life of the dog girl, so I dispelled this concern. ”

No, no, no, it is still a question whether the low-order species and the high-level species can be combined. Jue thought in his heart.

"Is your purpose today to thank me, or do you want to get something from me to prolong your life?" Jue asked tentatively.

There are many greedy people who will do whatever it takes to live forever.

However, from just now, Jue felt that this Ji Tuo's attitude was very humble, not like he was here to find trouble.

Ji Tuo looked at Jue, and then said, "No, no, no, if that's the case, you'll have to prepare the cheap one, so forget it, after all, it's not an ordinary thing." But I heard that you are planning to put this country on the right track, what are you going to do?"

Do you want to say it? Jue thought in his heart.

Ji Tuo's performance just now hinted to Jue that he might join Jue's lineup. But for Jue, the Terrans can't be trusted, so Ji Tuo is probably lying and then tricking Jue's goal and destroying it.

"Now that resources are scarce, I think we should protect the country's property first, and then reform from the bottom up. Jue said.

"From the bottom up...... Ji Tuo looked at Jue, and then said: "But now the upper political system is not stable, and if the reform is carried out from the bottom up, the probability of failure will be very high." ”

"But I'm confident. Jue said.

It is true that Ji Tuo's idea is correct, and now there are constant disputes between the pro-king faction and the aristocratic faction in the court, and if it is from the bottom up, it will indeed fail, but Jue plans to gamble - the gambling aristocratic faction has no funds now.

If the aristocratic faction does not have the funds now, then it is possible for them to obey Jue's orders, even if some nobles are now blocking their trade routes, they should also implement Jue's plan in their own territory. In this way, regardless of whether the aristocracy was compromising or not, the state's funds were preserved.

It's not impossible to make a comeback, it's just a big deal that the country is divided, but as long as two-thirds of the country can be preserved, it will be a victory-Jue thinks so.

As for using assassination to kill chickens and monkeys, it is the next policy for Jue.

"I see, that's what you're preparing for now. Ji Tuo thought for a moment and said.

"You know what else to ask?" Jue said.

"But I have heard that some nobles are now acting contrary to your policy. ”

You, as an aristocratic person, should know this.

"You know better than I do. Jue said.

"Lord Jue is really cautious. Ji Tuo said.

Jue's words just now were intended to poke something out of Ji Tuo's mouth, so he used such an ambiguous question.

"You're an old fritter too. Jue said with a not-so-bad expression.

Ji Tuo looked Jue up and down carefully, and then said, "Are you a dragon?" but not very similar in temperament. ”

"I'm not a dragon. Jue said.

"And you're a Terran?"

"Sort of. ”

Ji Tuo looked at Jue with satisfaction for a while, and nodded from time to time.

"There's something I want to remind you of. Time is precious to me now, so I hope you can say what you want to say quickly. ”

"I'm so sorry. After hearing this, Ji Tuo wiped his sideburns, "Please sit down first." ”

After Jue sat down, Ji Tuo said solemnly: "I received a letter from the dog girl from Dragon City. She talks about her life, some emotional issues, and about you. ”

"How?"

"She said that there was a magistrate who had passed, and then it was a white-haired guy, I don't know what he looked like, he should be quite handsome......"

After listening to Ji Yun's description of herself, Jue couldn't help but purse her mouth to stop herself from laughing.

Ji Yun's description of Jue is based on the fact that she has never seen Jue.

I didn't expect it to be so funny.

"She said you might need our help when necessary, so I decided to help you. ”

After hearing this, Jue not only had some questions.

"Women in the southern part of the country don't have much to say. Jue asked.

After observing the past few days, Jue found that there is a very serious situation of patriarchy and female objectification in Bannanguo. Therefore, Ji Tuoli said that there was no need to listen to his daughter's words.

"It's true that women don't have much of a say here. Ji Tuo affirmed Jue's words, "But I love my daughter very much, so I want to repay her benefactor." This time, I'm here to help you. ”

Jue closed his eyes for a moment. His fingers tapped on the table, but there was no sound.

"It's against your family's interests. ”

"Definitely. Ji Tuo took a long breath and looked at the painting on the wall.

The painting on the wall is a historical painting of the founding of the southern country.

The content of the painting is the story of the first king of the southern kingdom who led a large number of people to the south to open up the wasteland and establish a country.

"At the beginning, Wang Zu didn't want to have too much contact with the dragon clan, because at that time, Shangdu had just fallen, and the people still hated the royal race. However, due to the social situation at that time, Wang Zu had to cooperate with the Dragon Clan and forced himself to put on a posture of moving closer to the Dragon Clan. ”

Listening to Ji Tuo telling the history of the southern country, Jue couldn't help but look at the paintings on the wall.

But the dragon clan told Wang Zu about the coming calamity, so Wang Zu led his people to migrate from Zhongri Continent to Baiyue Continent...... What a feat. ”

After a moment of silence, Ji Tuo spoke again.

"Sometimes, we have to do things that go against our own ideas, but that kind of decision has the potential to change a person's life. So this time I decided to listen to you. ”

Jue looked at Ji Tuo's eyes for a while.

Jue didn't have the mask of an enforcer in his hands, so he couldn't see through whether what Ji Tuo said was a lie. But Jue was still able to rely on the experience he had accumulated over the years to judge that Ji Tuo was not lying.

But should I trust him?

For Jue, the Terrans cannot be trusted.

"You can help Ji Yun, so why can't you trust me as a parent?" Ji Tuo saw Jue's concerns.

...... Now, if you can get Ji Tuo as an ally, you will undoubtedly find a breakthrough in the current situation. If Ji Tuo gains more benefits than other aristocratic factions by cooperating with me, then more and more people will defect from the aristocratic faction, and then it will be my home field.

Jue glanced at the slightly old man in front of him, and then stretched out his hand.

"May we have a happy cooperation. ”

Ji Tuo smiled slightly after seeing Jue accept him, and said, "There, it should be, thank you again for saving the dog girl." ”

"It's nothing, it's just a gesture. Jue waved his hand. "Also, now that you've reached an alliance, don't use honorifics anymore, it sounds weird. ”

"Understood. ”

Just as Jue was about to get up and leave, Ji Tuo suddenly spoke: "Do you have a family?"

"No, it's just alone. Jue just raised up and sat back again.

"I've seen your performance, it's admirable, so I think a good talent like you needs someone to help. ”

Jue frowned slightly after hearing this, he could almost guess what Ji Tuo was going to say.

"Originally, if the dog girl hadn't said she had a sweetheart, I would have recruited you to our side, but she already has someone to follow. ”

"That's not good, at least the other party is a dragon. Jue was going to stop the conversation.

"Well, indeed. So I wanted to introduce my eldest daughter to you. ”

After listening to Ji Tuo's words, Jue almost fainted.

Good guy, it turns out that Ji Yun is not your only daughter.

"Unlike the dog girl, her sister is a girl who likes literature and ink, and I think it should be very compatible with you as a civil official. ”

Jue looked at Ji Tuo with an embarrassed smile, and then said, "Let's put this matter aside for a while, I don't want to mention marriage now." ”

"Also, the situation is still a bit grim. Ji Tuo smiled slightly, maybe he had already thought that Jue would say this. "But I don't think my eldest daughter would mind that slave next to you. ”

"Do you know Ouyang Treading Snow?"

"Well, I know about her, but you can really accept her background. ”

"What's going on?" Jue thought there might be another story in it.

Why was Ouyang Taxue abandoned by his family? Why didn't Ouyang Xun admit that Ouyang Taxue existed? Why did so many people go back to pay attention to Ouyang Taxue?

Jue was very interested.

Ji Tuo looked at Jue with a blank expression and realized that Jue didn't know anything about Ouyang Taxue.

"Let's talk about this later, I still have something to go first, and I'll contact you privately for the rest. Ji Tuo said.

Jue looked at Ji Tuo, who got up and left, and was stunned.

"Anyway, be nice to that child, at least don't hate her. Ji Tuo left after saying this.

After Ji Tuo left, Jue sat in the room in a daze.

What are these people doing, they're all so concerned about being a slave, they're sick in the brain, right?

Jue didn't understand why so many people were paying attention to Ouyang Taxue.

But Jue can feel another attitude from it - these concerns are not caring, but a spectator mentality similar to watching a play.

After thinking about it for a long time, Jue didn't decide whether to investigate the details of Ouyang Taxue.

Forget it, she's just a slave, and when I take out the ban, she'll have no use value.

Jue got up and left.

That night, somewhere in the Demon Domain—

It should be here.

The fog lowered the electronics in his hand.

Tonight's fog was not wearing a suit as before, but a light black armor that looked like a plastic shell had been put on the coat of a wetsuit.

Now the fog is in a deserted fortress. The cobwebs inside were intertwined, hanging down from above like a curtain, filling the space inside the fortress. There are also many skeletons wrapped in rust and covered in a thick layer of gray armor, which show the brutal battles that have taken place here in various ways in various ways as if they were killed.

Interestingly, though, the remains were all gathered in one place, and on the periphery of the corpses were the corpses of some wild beasts.

Fog looked at the bones. He knew that the bones of these deformed beasts were those of demons.

Foggy looked around, then put on a gas mask.

"Even after hundreds of millions of years, can't the war pollution here dissipate?"

Looking at the sparkling moonlit air around him, Mist unconsciously spoke his feelings.

He pulled out an electronic device and scanned it.

"Radiation dose...... Forehead...... It's over the limit. ”

Fog took a few steps back, and then performed a section of the operation screen on his left forearm.

"The particle dispersal device is turned on. ”

After hearing a sound coming from the helmet, the fog continued to walk forward.

The fog opened a notebook that looked a little old, and looked at the notebook for a while, and looked around for a while.

"I didn't expect there to be a spell that can trigger something like nuclear contamination, it's terrifying. But what makes these people want to mothball this place even if they pollute the land?"

The fog walked into the depths of the fortress. The purpose of this visit was to find a lost artifact.

Huh? That's ......

Fog made his way to the center of the corpse and found a beautifully crafted dagger.

"I see, is it hidden, but it doesn't bother me. Fog put away the dagger, then turned the knob at the temple of his helmet.

After a few seconds, the sonar on the light armor detected the existence of the dark room.

"Found it. Fog walked over with a dagger.

He plunged the dagger into the wall.

The moment the fog pierced the dagger, the wall behind the fog roared—the wall slowly opened.

But within a few seconds, cracks appeared in the walls, and there was a possibility of shattering.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't make such jokes! Is your craft so bad?!It's only been 100 million years!, can't you hold on?!" Mist said and stepped back.

The walls shattered, and large chunks of stone smashed into the fog.

"Attack dangerous flying objects!" shouted Fog.

"Confirm the flying object and give a counterattack. "The computer of the light armor issued a command, and dozens of small ** shots flew towards the gravel and blew it up.

Fog stood up again when he was sure it was safe, and he looked at the object sealed inside the shattered wall.

"Huh~" Fog whistled, "It really exists......"
