stand back, let me come

Chapter 1378 1378: There is no noble family in the lower class [ask for monthly ticket]

"Yuan's retainer?"

As far as he knew, no one in Xiang Zhao's social network had the last name Yuan, let alone that she had suddenly become a follower of the Yuan family. The enemy's words were obvious: Xiang Zhao had changed sides and submitted to them. This news was a great humiliation to Luan Xin, who had claimed to be Xiang Zhao's teacher a few words ago and was also the Minister of Personnel of Kangguo.

It's no different than slapping him in the face.

If it were anyone else, they would have stood up and flipped the table, cursing the other person's ancestors. If they were more restrained, they would have either cursed or turned their faces to make a fool of themselves. But Luan Xin was not a normal person, and he still responded in that slow pace: "You mean that student Luan has betrayed his country, right?"

The man smiled and said, "How can this be called treason?"

The other spectators also made some malicious remarks.

"That's right, a wise bird chooses the right tree to inhabit. It's human nature."

"This is strange. I have only heard that 'people go to high places, water flows to low places', but I have never heard that 'people go to low places, water flows to high places'. This is really against the laws of nature and morality." When Luan Xin said this, his expression was sincere and frank. "My lord was born in a humble family, but he aspired to be the supreme ruler with his insignificant body, and he dominated 30% to 40% of the world. I dare to ask how many families in your country can compare with him?"

As long as they don't use the same name and obey the same royal court, no matter how united this alliance is, it is still a patchwork of more than a dozen countries. Each of them is a small fry, how can they compare with Kangguo? Xiang Zhao has a lot of political resources, both overt and covert. She is a student of Luan Xin, the Minister of Personnel, and her ancestors have a history with Chu Yao, the Minister of the Chancellery. Gongyang Yongye, the 19th-rank Guannei Marquis, is the biological father of her future offspring, and the interests of the two are deeply bound together. Why is she serving as a retainer of the Yuan family?

Luan Xin said calmly in an infuriating tone, "Forgive me for being blunt, but who is Yuan Shi to be treated as a retainer?"

The contempt in his words was undisguised.

After saying so much at once, and even when he was feeling unwell, Luan Xin felt a little dry in the mouth. He wiped the corners of his lips with a wet towel to relieve the dryness, and did not even touch the wine on the table. The descendant of the Yuan family sitting opposite him had eyes like arrows, and his momentum burst out like a roaring mountain and sea rushing towards him. Gongyang Yongye touched the wine cup to the table with an indifferent expression, and with a thud, it instantly broke through the clouds and waves.

When it hits head-on, only a breeze remains.

She was not surprised that her warning was intercepted, and she said harshly: "What Minister Luan said is not quite right. How can we judge a country's strength by its borders? Whether it is the Northwest Continent or the Southwest Continent, the former is wild and barren, and the latter is poor and disaster-ridden. Minister Luan has been trapped in the borderland for half his life. Talking about major events in the four directions is just like sitting in a well and looking at the moon. If he could travel around the four directions, he would know what it means to be a mayfly seeing the blue sky."

Gongyang Yongye sneered when he heard this.

"What are you laughing at, my Lord?"

"I laugh at you for being good at talking, but you can only come up with these empty words. What's the difference between you and the muddiers digging in the mud? To put it bluntly, you have only one life, and you will die if you are killed. You call yourself the Lord, you are so shameless, no wonder you say 'sitting in a well and looking at the moon'..." Gongyang Yongye was very unhappy.

A face as big as the moon is really big!

The man was about to frown when Gong Yang Yongye slammed the table.

“No matter how you fight or how much trouble you make, you must return Xiang Zhao intact—” He looked around very impolitely, memorizing the faces of everyone present. Everyone who was swept by his eyes had the illusion of being stared at by a ferocious beast. “Otherwise, you’d better make sure that your family lives under the watchful eyes of Marquis Che every day!”

"What do you mean?"

Gong Yangyongye raised his voice, and although he didn't let go of his aura, people thought he was a murderous knife that would draw blood: "What I mean is, wash your neck clean! If Xiang Zhao loses a hair, I will kill your family! Let's see who has more hair or your people! How you fight with Kangguo is none of my business, and you can't touch the people I'm protecting!"

If you think carefully, Xiang Zhao is not yet on the Kangguo staff.

She was a free person, and she went to Yuanfu County at Miao Ne's invitation. The Central Allied Forces attacked Yuanfu County and captured her. In theory, Gongyang Yongye didn't need to go through official channels, and it was reasonable for him to lower his face and attack the families of these people.

"Who are you threatening?"

These words almost ignited the powder keg.

Gong Yang Yongye sneered, "I am a commoner in the martial arts world. I only know one thing - martial arts is martial arts! I am very respectful of you to sit here and listen to your weird talk. Don't be shameless! Ah, yes, yes, yes, I know you are from different clans, but as long as I can break through alive, everyone in my family should remember to open one eye when they sleep, and don't die in a dream!"

When Kangguo goes to war, they still follow the procedures first, but people in the underworld are different.

Who among the underworld people does not aim to eradicate the problem completely?

Every member of their tribe is protected by Che Hou?

No!

But he had plenty of patience to catch and kill people one by one!

Everyone present had never seen a tough guy like Gongyang Yongye, and they looked at each other in bewilderment. Gongyang Yongye held back his temper and said, "Don't look at Luan Gongyi. I'm not from Kangguo, so he can't control me! In one word, hand over the person or not!"

Everyone's faces looked as if they had stepped on dog shit.

If this were a normal world, a rough man would only need a few swordsmen to chop him into meat sauce if he made such a threat, but the personal strength in this world was abnormal. If it was really like what Gong Yangyongye said, it would be easy for them to break through without considering the overall situation. By then, it would be like releasing a fish into the sea, and it would be almost impossible to catch it again.

Even if they were even more shameless and killed people of the same surname according to the family tree, they really couldn't defend against it. Who could defend against a 19th-rank Guannei Hou fighting alone? They didn't know if Gongyang Yongye dared to take the risk, but they really didn't dare to gamble.

"Lady Xiang's change of allegiance was indeed the result of her careful consideration. We did not use any coercion or inducement. How about this--" The man sitting at the head of the group came out to smooth things over, asking for Yuan's opinion and preparing to let Xiang Zhao explain himself.

The Yuan family's lady clasped her fists and said, "As you command."

He whispered to his assistant, "Go and get the person."

Luan Xin used the corner of his eye to ask Gong Yang Yongye what was going on.

Didn’t he search to make sure that this was not the place he came from?

Luan Xin asked him, and he was still puzzled.

Xiang Zhao's aura is definitely not here!

Not long after, Yuan's deputy invited Xiang Zhao over. Xiang Zhao looked healthy, with intact hands and feet and a ruddy complexion. He did not look like a prisoner who had been held captive for a long time. After entering the tent, he saw Luan Xin and Gongyang Yongye there, and he saluted and greeted them: "Student greets the teacher, and greets the marquis."

Gong Yang Yongye asked her, "Are you okay?"

Xiang Zhao sat down next to Yuan: "All is well."

Now it was the enemy's turn to laugh: "Minister Luan has also seen that your student is truly loyal to us. In my opinion, you might as well give up the dark and join the light instead of being stubborn and rebellious."

Luan Xin did not answer, but just looked at Xiang Zhao and sighed.

Xiang Zhao looked him straight in the eyes seriously.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but this is indeed the student's own choice. Although Kangguo is a good place, there is no place for students to stay."

The man sitting at the top even asked the master and disciple if they wanted to reminisce in private. Luan Xin shook his head: "No need. We have different paths."

Different road non-phase plan.

There was no need to say more. Xiang Zhao's eyes dimmed a little, but he didn't say another word. Gong Yang Yongye looked at her, then at Luan Xin, and also chose to turn off the microphone.

Xiang Zhao's appearance made Luan Xin lose the confidence to fight back, and the enemy ridiculed him even more. However, they ridiculed them, and Luan Xin responded when he wanted to pay attention, and ignored him when he didn't want to pay attention, which made people hate him so much!

Luan Xin's goal this time was to negotiate the price for the redemption of the captives, and Xiang Zhao was the most special one. Since she chose to change her allegiance, she would naturally be removed from the redemption list. In this way, it would be much easier to negotiate for the other captives, the only difference being the price.

Kang is a great country with a great cause, and can afford the ransom.

The final price agreed upon was 30% higher than the normal market price.

Gongyang Yongye was filled with anger.

I don't understand why Luan Xin lost his morale all of a sudden. He was almost led by the other party in the second half. If he is so humiliated, he might as well use underworld means to settle the matter! Luan Xin is fine, but why is Luo San also mute? "Your tongue was taken away by a cat?"

Luo San said: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

Although he was also angry, Shen Nujun's family was too big to fail like this, but Luan Xin could be the head of the six departments, so he must not be a mediocre person. He chose to believe Shen Nujun's vision, and Luan Xin must have his own intentions. If Luan Xin was really just incompetent, then he would teach Luan Xin a lesson.

Gong Yang Yongye said angrily: "You——"

The audio of the chat would be monitored, so Luan Xin used Bluebird to communicate and told some of the clues he had discovered during the dinner today.

The first sentence is the explosive content.

【This is not coming and going. 】

Gongyang Yongye and Luo San put their heads together to read the encrypted text on the letter and were confused by the content.

He suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Luan Xin.

His eyes asked: [Isn’t it Xiang Laiqu? But clearly——]

He had not detected Xiang Zhao before, maybe the enemy used a special method to conceal his presence, or maybe he missed it. Just now at the banquet, he was so close, it was definitely Xiang Zhao himself!

[It’s definitely not her, or not entirely her.] After Luan Xin said this, he raised his hand and pointed at his eyes, [The world I see with my eyes is different from what ordinary people see.]

Gong Yangyongye and Luo San can judge the authenticity of a move by its aura, which is more similar to the aura of literature, and he can see the aura that is almost soul-like directly with his eyes: [I see that the aura of Laiqu is disturbed by an external force. ]

Gong Yang and Yongye looked at each other.

Luan Xin came to a conclusion.

[Changing her family's affiliation was probably not her own intention. 】

[Someone used the Word Spirit to treat her as a puppet, controlling her thoughts, words and actions?] This kind of Word Spirit does exist, but it is rare and dangerous. There are generally two types of control. One is relatively superficial, taking advantage of the controlled person's sleep and distraction to intervene, and the other is to impose one's own consciousness on the controlled person, and the latter is much more difficult than the former.

Judging from Xiang Zhao’s performance just now, it doesn’t seem like the former.

Could it be the latter?

[Maybe it's even more serious than this.] Luan Xin forced himself to endure the discomfort and said with energy, [It was Laiqu's appearance that made me notice a little detail... In addition to Laiqu, there were two other people who also had varying degrees of incongruity.]

Gong Yang Yongye: [Please put it simply.]

Luan Xin asked him: [Have you ever heard of taking over another's body?]

The so-called possession of a body refers to the invasion of one person's soul and spirit into another person's body, or destroying, devouring, or suppressing the soul and spirit of the original owner of the body, in order to achieve the purpose of controlling the body.

Seeing the two struggling to digest this information, Luan Xin said: [There are no poor families in the upper class, and no nobles in the lower class. I have always wondered if there is really a spirit in this world that can make the upper class only exist among the nobles forever? Later, I felt that it was unlikely. Since God has given everyone the opportunity to obtain the gift of God, why leave such a vacancy for people to exploit? I thought of Wu Hui again. 】

If one has the ability to [steal and replace] a literary mind, then under harsh conditions, one can give a second-grade upper-level literary mind to another mediocre person with poor talent. So - is it possible that under certain harsh conditions, someone can also achieve a similar plundering effect?

The literary mind can [replace one thing with another], but what about the body?

To some extent, it is more convenient than stealing the literary mind.

Luo San shook his head: [I don’t believe it.]

Gong Yang Yongye: [I think it is possible. ]

[When the ruler of a country thinks about immortality, the noble families will naturally think about eternal life.] When Luo San looked over, Gongyang Yongye told him some secrets that he accidentally learned in his early years, [In my early years, I treated a certain patient, and we developed some friendship. I heard this patient vaguely say something about 'head replacement'...]

What to change???

Luo San had a blank expression on his face: [The more you talk, the more absurd it becomes.]

Gong Yang Yongye was unconvinced and said: [Do you think I am lying to you? It is true. I have also seen the incomplete pulse case. Some of the steps on it are about how to replace the heads of the two monkeys. The monkey woke up after the head replacement.]

However, no one can replicate that pulse case.

Like some whimsical and bizarre stories in the market.

The patient felt very sorry for it at the time. Gong Yangyongye complained to him: "So what if you changed into a body that can give birth to a child? How can something that is not your own give birth to your own child?"

Now when I think about it, it’s quite terrifying.

[When the body gets old, it is replaced with a young and strong one. When the talent is too poor, the soul is replaced with a talented body... How can this not be regarded as - there are no poor families in the upper class, and no nobles in the lower class? ] The real high-quality resources are always in hand.

Even if there is only one genius among ten thousand——

Among ten million people, there are ten thousand geniuses to choose from.

Luo San: [Even if it really exists, it is impossible to use it recklessly, otherwise the whole clan would be full of geniuses. ]

Gongyang Yongye said: [That is true.]

As soon as he finished speaking, he almost couldn't catch his breath. [Minister Luan meant that Xiang Laiqu might have been possessed by someone else? ]

【There are concerns about this.】

But he was not very worried about Xiang Zhao's situation.

The aura coming in and out was obviously stronger, and it didn't look like he had suffered a serious injury. He was probably restraining himself deliberately to protect himself.

(*▽*)

I heard about head transplant surgery in 2015 or something, and they said there was an example on a monkey, but the monkey seemed to be euthanized after the surgery was successful?

The previous human civilization in the article is the future of our timeline. In order to save themselves and survive, they would do anything, right?
