Outside Zheng Liming's hut, Bai Xiao and Lu Xun walked side by side.

The Qingtai where Lu Xun lives is not far from Bai Xiao's old rain building, and on the way back, they talk while walking, and the topic starts with Zheng Liming's bedtime story, and soon extends to a variety of miscellaneous fields.

As the son of a wealthy family, Lu Xun has been erudite since he was a child, and his accumulation of knowledge is naturally much richer than that of Bai Xiao, who is cramming Buddha's feet, and he talks eloquently at this time, guiding the development of the topic.

"When it comes to the strange things of the Demon Realm, the Eastern Continent naturally has the best geographical advantage. The five-hundred-year-long war left the demons too many legacies in the Eastern Continent, such as the primordial brood, the shattered magic crystal, and the gate of the exotic land...... There are countless treasures, all of which are treasures that the Demon Daoists of the Western Continent want to wear. However, during the Great War, the people of the Eastern Continent shed blood to defeat the Demon Clan, and it is only natural that the spoils of war belong to them. ”

"However, after the end of the war, the empire is already full of holes, in order to rebuild civilization as soon as possible, the empire has intensified the exploitation of the colonies of the Western Continent, in their opinion, the Western Continent, which had almost no bloodshed during the Great War, completely relied on the bloody battles of the Eastern Continent to enjoy the time of peace, if there is no Shengyuan Empire to drive the demons out of the Eastern Continent, the territory of human civilization will fall in full sooner or later...... Then it is also justified to pay some price after the war. ”

After a pause, Lu Xun said again: "It's a pity that this price is close to two hundred years, the group of people who fought bloodily back then have long since passed away, and the Western Continent is still overdrawn for that war, and even the children and grandchildren who have nothing to do with it cannot be freed...... In this case, resistance occurred from time to time, and the environment in the Western Continent at that time was already complicated, so in order to suppress the situation, the Shengyuan Empire continued to send additional troops. And in this process, many strange things from the Demon Realm belonging to the Eastern Continent also spread here, and then ...... After the War of Independence, it was completely owned by the Western Continent. At the beginning of the founding of the Ancestors, it took hundreds of years to deal with the open guns and hidden arrows of the Shengyuan Empire, and even until he stepped down from the throne, the struggle between the two empires did not stop. Among them, the hundreds of thousands of blood debts of the expeditionary force are of course the main reason, but the strange objects of the Demon Realm lost in the Western Continent are also an important reason. Or the latter is more important, after all, hundreds of years have passed, and any blood debts can be forgotten, but the interests related to the strange things in the demon world are eternal. During that time, the ancestors of the Lu family had to deal with the continuous high pressure of the Eastern Continent, and at the same time deter those wealthy families in the country who were about to move, which was quite a one-man effort to fight against the world, and the price was that successive generations of emperors died young...... I think that when the ancestors were forced to abdicate, they were mostly relieved. ”

Bai Xiao turned his head in some surprise.

Lu Xun hurriedly explained: "Don't take it seriously, I guessed blindly with myself, and people like me who are used to retreating to the second best place are easy to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain...... But to tell you the truth, changing places and putting me in the position of my ancestors will never be able to withstand the pressure. ”

After sighing, Lu Xun sighed again: "What is it like to fight the world with the strength of one person? Bai Xiao, you must have a deep understanding of this, right?"

Bai Xiao was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "How can I have that kind of experience? Fight the whole world with the power of one person, the premise is to default to the whole world as your enemy, if you have this mentality, it is better to commit suicide directly, and with a knife here, your world will disappear in one stroke, and all enemies will be gone." ”

After a pause, Bai Xiao looked at Lu Xun, who was surprised, and explained, "That was the original thing Bai Wuya taught me just now...... Although he is a scumbag, the truth of this statement is not wrong. In the tribe, when hunters first enter the hunting grounds, they often have the feeling that the whole world is against them: the bitter snow wind, the cruel low temperature, the poisons that breed everywhere, and the strange beasts that are everywhere...... There was hostility around every corner, and it was a harsher place than the Black Swamp. However, if you insist on fighting a bloody way out of it with the attitude of being the enemy of the whole world, then the result is only a dead end. Because the power of an individual is limited, but the snow-capped mountains are endless. If you want to survive in the snowy mountains, you must learn to use every ounce of resources in it to transform enemies into your friends, and even transform yourself into enemies. Just like I did in the Black Swamp, using local materials and being self-reliant. ”

Lu Xun was suddenly relieved: "I see...... It's my extreme thinking, yes, the ancestors did the same thing, seeking allies in the Saint Yuan Council, supporting supporters within the empire, using every ounce of power as much as possible, fighting for every opportunity. The so-called enemy of the whole world is indeed an overly naïve idea. So this year-end test, will you deal with it in the same way?"

Bai Xiao said: "The specific plan is set by Mr. Zheng Liming, and I just need to strictly implement it." But if I had to think about it...... Isn't it okay to just throw money around? Aren't southerners the ones who like money the most?"

“...... It's been a long time since you've said this line. ”

More than half a year ago, when Bai Xiao first came to Hongshan City, it was money that opened the way, and tens of millions of silver dollars were scattered, so that he, a savage whose knowledge of the Southern Continent was limited to a few outdated books, was like a fish in water in Hongshan City.

And half a year has passed, Bai Xiao, who has changed into the chief demon robe, although he still maintains the bronzed complexion of the snow mountain man and the short hair of the neat one, no one will treat him as a savage anymore. His speech and demeanor, his knowledge of the southern continent, are not much different from the locals.

However, after listening to Bai Xiao's words just now, Lu Xun knew that his essence was still that maverick snow mountain man.

Because no southerner would say it lightly: just throw money around. In this case, after all......

After all, no southerner can be as rich as Bai Xiao!

"Haha, the idea is good, but I'm afraid it may not have any effect at that time, after all, the instructor on our side is the one who knows you best, and the tactic of throwing money is naturally ineffective...... By the way, a reminder to you, if someone on our side comes to us and asks for a bribe, saying that as long as you are willing to pay, they can help you fight for an advantage in the game...... Don't believe it, those people are all doglegs that the original poetry teacher put out to collect pocket money!"

Bai Xiao was surprised for a while, and asked, "Why does Teacher Yuan Shi do such a stupid thing? She wants money, just tell me no?"

Lu Xun was once again shocked by the unique "snow mountain style" of this sentence, so much so that he couldn't even say a serious explanation for a while, and extremely complex emotions surged in his heart.

He is a dignified Lu family, an out-and-out proud son of the sky, because he is the only son of Lu Bieli, when it comes to power, the influence is even no less than that of the emperor's eldest son...... But he has never been so financially free since he was a child!

Although the family's investment in him is also astronomical - since he was a child, he hired a master to teach alone, bathed in magic energy with rare monsters, and armed the whole body with sky-high magic tools...... Expenses such as these are enough to bankrupt the average mid-sized family. But after all, it is just an investment, with a strong constraint and direction, and it is impossible to use it indiscriminately according to his temperament! At least Lu Bieli has never spoiled him so much!

Thinking of this, Lu Xun was even more complicated.

Although every time Bai Xiao mentions Bai Wuya, it will be accompanied by derogatory words such as scum and stallions, but to tell the truth, this kind of father who gives unlimited pocket money, what's wrong with the scum?!

This kind of wealthy family who was born in Fuli and did not know the blessing really deserved to be damned!

After calming down her emotions, Lu Xun returned to the topic and explained: "For the original poem, the food that comes to you is absolutely inedible, and it must be processed by her wisdom before it can be digested and absorbed. So if you give the money directly, she won't ask for it, and she has to use a trick to deceive it to count. ”

Bai Xiao thought for a while: "Okay, then when someone asks me for a bribe, I'll ask them to transfer it to the original poem." ”

This unique snow-capped mountain style shocked Lu Xun again, so much so that he couldn't help but make up his mind.

In this year-end test, I must definitely go all out!
