Chapter Eighty-Six: The Noble's Back Garden The Purgatory of the Ordinary People
After returning to the banquet hall, the dinner party was also held as scheduled, and many guests at this time had already been assigned positions according to the family's status in the Heaven Dou Empire, because they were stained with the light of the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, so Leng Xiyue and they could also sit in a separate box with Ning Rongrong and them.
I have to say that at first glance, this dinner seems to be nothing worthwhile, but now it is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and sitting at the same table with her is a personable young man with a small blue lightning bolt on his head, and a woman in relatively revealing clothes sits next to him.
The one who can sit at this table is at this age, could it be Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan?
After all, behind Dugu Yan is Dugu Bo, and it is normal to come here to get a piece of the pie.
Beside them, there was also a middle-aged man who had the strength of a soul saint, and he should be considered a high-level in the Blue Electric Overlord Sect, but this middle-aged man was very low-key, and he seemed to be just preparing to be a bodyguard, or a staff officer to the young master, and he was not ready to be a leader.
The Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect was the same, Ning Rongrong also brought a soul saint, and this soul saint looked much more reliable than the previous group of doglegs.
It seems that Tianmeng did it intentionally, as soon as Leng Xiyue came back, she saw Oscar and Ning Rongrong sitting together, Oscar's face was pale, but Ning Rongrong was talking to him with a curious face.
"Brother Ao, I heard Brother Tianmeng say that you are just an auxiliary soul master, is it true?" Looking at Oscar's sturdy body, Ning Rongrong was extremely shocked, could an auxiliary soul master also be able to exercise to this level?
As soon as these words came out, Yu Tianheng, who was originally sitting opposite and drinking tea, suddenly froze, and his face also showed an unbelievable look.
"Auxiliary?"
As we all know, auxiliary soul masters are much worse than other types of soul masters in terms of physical strength, and because they never go to the frontal battlefield, 90% of auxiliary soul masters are people who can't endure hardships, one by one with fine skin and tender meat, hiding behind to increase their teammates, and when they are sneak attacked, they can run faster at most, and it is useless to practice at all, so they can often roughly guess the type of martial soul of this person according to their body type.
The strangers sitting on the side of the Seven Treasure Liuli Sect on the other side are actually very recognizable, Tianmeng looks like a humble gentleman like Ning Fengzhi, at first glance, he is not fighting, non-control is not assisted, not to mention the boy who is like a stuffy can, 100% defense, the same as the Shi family brothers, but the Oscar who is as strong as a bear... No matter how you look at it, it has to be a strong attack system, right?
It's scary to watch, but the question is... There is no strong attack soul skill, you can only use soul power to cooperate with the body to hit people with ordinary tricks, this is not meaningful, right?
Hearing Ning Rongrong's question, Oscar suddenly became proud: "Of course, as long as we can endure hardships, our auxiliary department will not be able to obtain the strength that can rival the soul master of the strong attack system."
Although he can only have some advantages in strength now, he heard Sister Xiyue say that he will get some powerful equipment for him in the future, which is also the next training goal, if he does not have a strong physique, he will not be able to use these equipment perfectly.
"Poof." Hearing this, Yu Tianheng couldn't help but smile.
If you exercise your body, you want to beat up a strong attack soul master, what about dreaming?
Seeing a few people looking at him, Yu Tianheng also realized that he was a little rude, so he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I thought of something happy that has nothing to do with you." ….
No matter how people brag about it, they are also guests of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, and they are willing to listen to it, if they slander themselves, it will undoubtedly fall into the face of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, which is an unwise move.
Tianmeng didn't know what Yu Tianheng was thinking, so he sneered, "You seem to be very unconvinced? Otherwise, you and my apprentice will have a fight?"
This kid from the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex family is only the strength of the Great Soul Master, and even if he uses the Soul Technique, he can't be Oscar's opponent at all.
After all, Oscar's strength is not as simple as it seems, he can absorb three thousand years of soul rings, and he can also withstand attacks of this level, and thunder and lightning attacks of more than twenty levels are not painful at all.
Even if you are really injured, just make a sausage, and you will recover after taking a bite.
Although the other party has no intention of looking for trouble, but... Leng Xiyue asked him to help match
Xiao Ao and Ning Rongrong, then what could be better than beating up the young master of the Blue Electric Overlord Sect?
"This is a banquet organized by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so it doesn't seem like a good thing to compete here?" Yu Tianheng did not answer positively, but changed the topic.
This kind of battle of will, not to mention that there is no benefit, there is an auxiliary soul master opposite, he is the world's number one attacking beast martial soul, and it is not glorious to win.
If you lose, you will be even more embarrassed and thrown to your grandmother's house, maybe the entire sect will be smeared by yourself, since the other party is so confident, maybe there is really a possibility of losing.
At this time, he only blamed himself for why he had to laugh just now...
Before Tianmeng could speak, Leng Xiyue patted him on the shoulder: "Forget it, Tianmeng, since people are scared, there is no need for us to be aggressive."
Leng Xiyue's words that seemed to be said to Tianmeng were actually extremely lethal, and instantly made Yu Tianheng on the opposite side break his defense: "What did you say? Will I be inferior to him? An auxiliary soul master?"
Leng Xiyue tilted her head and looked at Yu Tianheng with a little doubt: "Then what are you afraid of?" Afraid of being subdued by an auxiliary department of our family's Xiao Ao and losing his face?"
Yu Tianheng is also a young man with strong blood, even if he was about to slap the table and get up, who knew that Dugu Yan on the side grabbed him.
"Tianheng, forget it, don't be like them."
Dugu Yan's words instantly sobered up Yu Tianheng, the other party was obviously playing a trick on him, if he was impulsive, he might not know how to pit himself.
Looking at Leng Xiyue's sarcastic expression, Yu Tianheng didn't know why the other party wanted to set him up, obviously he hadn't met before.
Thinking of this, Yu Tianheng calmed down and asked Leng Xiyue, "This young lady, we have never met, why are you inferior to me?"
"Degraded?" Leng Xiyue looked at Yu Tianheng and chuckled, "How could I have ever belittled you? I'm just stating the facts, and I don't dare to let you beat you, if I were so spineless, I would have drunk tea in a muffled voice."
The Blue Electric Overlord Sect is a cannon fodder family, and it doesn't even have a Super Douluo, and it doesn't have any use value like the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, it doesn't matter if you offend it or not, it will be wiped out sooner or later anyway, and now it's good to use Yu Tianheng as a whetstone for Oscar.
Yu Tianheng was choked by Leng Xiyue's words, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only look at Ning Rongrong on the side: "Rongrong, are you guests of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect a little too rude?" ….
"You should tell my father about this, Sister Xiyue is a person who can talk about business with my father at the same table, but she is not a junior like you and me." Ning Rongrong glanced at him, and when he talked about his juniors, he obviously accentuated his tone.
Although she was cleaned up by Leng Xiyue and left a bad memory, it did not prevent her from worshiping Leng Xiyue, compared to the arrogant eldest lady, Leng Xiyue was the target worth chasing.
Hearing this, Yu Tianheng simply stopped talking, drank tea by himself, and no longer paid attention to them.
Seeing this, Leng Xiyue stopped looking for trouble, and asked Ning Rongrong, "Then again, Rongrong, what are you Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect going to do in this land?"
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the old man's playful expression when they were separated just now gave her a feeling that it wasn't very good.
Ning Rongrong thought about it, and it seemed that this was not an important matter, so he said, "We? Of course, it is necessary to use the unique forest ecology here to plant some high-end resources that cannot be grown in inland forests, so as to make up for the gap in the output of the sect in this regard~"
Then, she pointed at Yu Tianheng: "As for them, they are going to open up a training ground, and from time to time they will attract some soul beasts from the outside and raise them in captivity, so that it will be much more convenient for family members to find soul rings in the future, and they can also be used as sparring partners to cultivate the fighting skills of sect members."
"However, this kind of play is only affordable for our two top sects, not only do we have to invest a lot of money every year, but our two families account for at least half of the entire new territory, and the rest is divided among those people outside, so they are not qualified to sit at this table."
"Those nobles all had the idea of making quick money, so they probably cut down the trees and sold them for money, and then fattened them here
Raise some soul beasts on fertile land, such as mounts, meat, ornamental soul beasts, etc., this kind of thing comes to money relatively quickly."
It sounds like a good business, after all, soul beasts, chariots and horses have always been relatively scarce, however, Leng Xiyue thought of the ordinary people who had fought at the city gate before, and couldn't help asking, "Then, if all the territory is divided, how will the people of Star Dou Town, who originally relied on this forest for their livelihood, deal with themselves?"
Populace? them!
Of course, Ning Rongrong hadn't thought about this problem, although she had learned a little bit now, but civilians and the like were still things that were not worth mentioning in her eyes, let alone thinking about a way out for them.
However, she didn't express her thoughts directly in front of Leng Xiyue, she just said hesitantly, "I think the local residents should be able to fend for themselves, after all, even if there are endless forests outside after the expansion of the Star Dou Wall..."
When Leng Xiyue heard Ning Rongrong's answer, she didn't know what she was thinking, and she couldn't help but think about it in her heart.
The people may be ordinary people, but along the way, she found that basically every hunter has a genuine rifle in Wuhun City.
If these people can hunt soul beasts for hundreds of years, and have combat experience no less than that of veterans, then they can also be regarded as soul sect-level combat power, and there are thousands of hunters in the entire Star Dou Town, and they are also one of the main groups in the sale of firearms in Wuhun City. ….
Soul Venerable can be killed at will, and it may not be a problem for the Soul Sect to carry one or two shots, but it is not so much that it can't even break the protective body, if it is shot by a dozen or twenty people, then there will be a ghost if it is not violently killed.
Even if there are a few masters above the Soul King, it is useless, and the low-level people are all dead, so what is the use of just a few masters?
If it is finally suppressed, it will be fine, if the people are out of control, resulting in the collapse of the entire pattern, then the people's hearts will be lost, and if they can't keep it, they will be killed and bloodied, as the crown prince, Qianrenxue may not be able to escape the blame...
While his thoughts were flowing, the door of the box suddenly opened, but it was Xue Qinghe who walked in with Duke Lin Sen in his arms.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Lord Duke." Everyone hurriedly got up to greet each other, Xue Qinghe pressed his hand slightly, and then sat on the main seat with Duke Lin Sen, and everyone sat down.
"I guess you've been waiting for a long time, just now I talked to Duke Linsen for a few minutes, and it's only too late for Shanshan to arrive." Xue Qinghe smiled slightly, and then glanced at the crowd: "The forces behind the few people here are the mainstays of my Heaven Dou Empire, I won't say anything superfluous, let's start talking about business first."
Xue Qinghe clapped his hands, and the two maids brought a big cake up.
"I think you will know what I am going to say when you see this cake, before that, I must thank Duke Lin, according to the laws of Heaven Dou, the land around Star Dou Town until the border of Heaven Dou is Duke Lin's private property, but Old Man Lin is loyal to the country and understands the righteousness, and is willing to dedicate all the land around Star Dou Town to the empire free of charge, and sell it to be used as funds for the expansion of the Star Dou Wall here."
"But Duke Lin has lived in the Star Dou Great Forest for half his life, and he can't bear to be destroyed after this, so I hereby hope that I will make a guarantee that all the nobles involved in this matter will record and present the future use of the land after buying it, and the nobles who make quick money for the purpose of cutting down ancient trees are not allowed, I deeply agree with this, I don't know what you think?"
After speaking, Xue Qinghe asked his attendants to put the prepared knives in front of Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, Yu Tianheng, and Leng Xiyue.
This is the primitive way of dividing the cake, first divided by a few top forces, and the rest of the part is the turn of most of the nobles outside, first spend money to buy the corresponding share of land, draw up a bill, and use the corresponding share to receive the corresponding size of land after the Star Wall is built.
[To tell the truth, I've been using @
Some small aristocrats can only choose what is left of others, and there is no choice at all.
Of course, Leng Xiyue is also one of the top forces, after all, if she can negotiate a deal with Ning Fengzhi, it can be regarded as a level of existence, whether it is her business or not, but the knife still has to be given.
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong said, "My Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect needs a mountain forest as a high-grade medicine field, and I won't do such a stupid thing as trying to catch fish, I hope the old man can rest assured."
As she spoke, with a wave of her hand, the Soul Saint behind her picked up the knife and stepped forward to cut off a third of the cake.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Tianheng also expressed his attitude: "My Blue Electric Overlord Sect also needs this pristine land inside the Star Dou Great Forest as a testing ground for family members, the environment should naturally be preserved, and now that the Star Dou Wall has been built here, we will not give up such a good opportunity."
As he spoke, Yu Tianheng personally cut a piece of cake about one-fifth.
"My grandfather has his own medicine garden, so there is no need to get involved in this, I came here to accompany Tianheng." Dugu Yan pushed back the knife in front of him and sprinkled the dog food along the way.
The big head has been divided, so a few people looked at Leng Xiyue.
The knives are all for you, whether you divide them or not, you have to give a word, right?
Of course, Leng Xiyue didn't have any need for this, and was about to say something casually to return the knife, when she suddenly remembered something, so she asked Xue Qinghe and Lin Sen with interest:
"This forest is of no help to me, but, old man, if the Dou Empire has not settled in Star Dou Town today, you can see this Star Dou Town... Would you like to sell me?".
Yehua's heart is clear
