The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 175 Reinforcements
At the port pier, Xu Tong, the lord of Yanbo Island, has been waiting for a long time.

Outlying islands are known as a country ruled by mortals, and Yang Lu is also curious about what kind of existence the lords of outlying islands are like.

He originally thought that these outlying island lords should be similar to European feudal nobles or ancient Chinese landlords and squires, but after meeting Xu Tong himself, Yang Lu suddenly discovered that the other party turned out to be a middle-aged man with a fierce face. There is also an obvious nouveau riche style.

Rather than saying that the other party is a noble lord, it is better to say that he is the leader of the pirates or the king of the mountain.

The lord of Yanbo Island didn't put on airs with the Haiya Chamber of Commerce either. He was accompanied by only a few servants and personal guards. However, when he saw Lin Dong wearing the uniform of the Wuliang Sword Sect, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. color.

The disgust of the residents of the outlying islands towards the cultivators is already an almost instinctive physiological reaction.

Even if Lin Dong is an ally who came to help!
However, Han Fulai seemed to see an old friend who had been lost for a long time, and warmly greeted him: "Island Master Xu, I haven't seen you for many years!"

"Han Guanshi, I remember that you haven't personally led a fleet for a long time!" Xu Tong's tone was also a little surprised, obviously he didn't expect to meet Han Fulai, an old acquaintance.

With a warm smile on his face, Han Fulai said politely: "Reinforcing the outlying islands is a major decision made by the Wuliang Sword Sect. City Lord Jiang also attaches great importance to it, so he asked me to lead the team personally to show respect to the lords. I don't know the latest situation of the outlying islands. ?”

When mentioning the situation on the outlying islands, a trace of gloom visible to the naked eye flashed across Xu Tong's face: "The situation in the outlying islands is about to go bad, but this is not a place to talk. I have prepared a banquet, and I invite all friends from Haiya City to walk along the way." Say."

While following Xu Tong to the banquet location, Yang Lu was also observing the outlying island residents who happened to meet along the way.

He soon discovered that the living conditions of the residents on outlying islands were a little different from what he had imagined before, and after seeing Xu Tong's banquet for everyone, he became more certain of his judgment.

Although the social class division in the Kyushu cultivation world is very cruel, but because the major cultivation forces need to compete with each other economically to attract more mortals to settle down, the living conditions of the bottom mortals are still reluctant.At least compared to the low-level workers in the mid-industrial revolution, the mortals in the Kyushu cultivation world have an overwhelming advantage in terms of living conditions.

However, the lords of outlying islands don't need to accumulate merit, so naturally they don't need to take care of ordinary people's feelings.

Therefore, the living conditions of ordinary residents on outlying islands are extremely worrying. Not only are they all in rags, but not far from Yanbo Port, Yang Lu also saw slum-style buildings all over the mountains and plains.

If Yang Lu didn't know that he was in the cultivation world, he would have thought that he had traveled to Mexico City or Rio de Janeiro.

In stark contrast to the slums, is the place where Huang Daozhu holds a banquet. It is simply an imperial palace.

The decoration standard of this palace-style building is no less than that of Haiya Pavilion, and the service is even better. Even the servants who are responsible for serving tea and pouring water are all mortal beauties selected in a hundred.

Seeing Island Master Xu personally leading the three distinguished guests to the banquet hall, the beautiful servants along the way prostrated themselves on the ground and saluted respectfully, just like the Thai people seeing the king, and there was only a link to crawl over and kiss everyone's toes.

When he saw this battle just now, Yang Lu was a little surprised at first, but he was relieved after thinking about it.

It has always been the eternal pursuit of human beings to ride on the heads of their compatriots and be domineering, even if everyone is mortal.Since this Island Master Xu was able to separate himself from one side, it is not surprising that he has the extravagant style of a warlord leader.

He just felt a little emotional, the outlying islands and the earth are just worlds dominated by mortals, there is no difference in individual endowment, but the strife between people has been so severe, like the Kyushu cultivation world, high-level cultivation Those who control the power above the social order, if there is no restraint by the law of heaven, I am afraid that it would have become a dystopian purgatory on earth.

Comrade Marx believes that capital can lead to the alienation of human beings, and extraordinary individual power is obviously stronger than capital, and he does not know how other high-magic worlds without the existence of heaven maintain the game balance among social members.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, it is impossible for creatures like humans to form a stable high-magic society...

Han Fulai and Xu Tong didn't think so much about aliens like Yang Lu, they seemed to have gotten used to it for a long time.

Although Lin Dong has never seen such an emperor-like battle, his IQ is obviously not enough for him to think about profound issues such as "the impact of extraordinary power on the game equilibrium of social members".

After seeing so many beauties kneeling at his feet, he wished he could pull a few beauties over on the spot to do something about it.

Although Lin Dong is also a proper master in the Wuliang Sword Sect, he still has to pay attention to his image and demeanor when there are so many elders staring at him. How have he ever seen such a luxurious and unscrupulous enjoyment by the lord of Yanbo Island? ?

After everyone was seated, there was a beautiful servant with a smile on his face, pouring spiritual tea to the distinguished guests of Haiya City.

The aura environment on outlying islands is extremely thin, and it is extremely difficult to restore the aura by meditation. Although the spiritual tea used for entertainment is only the worst tea, the effect of restoring aura is at least better than that of meditation. It’s not that Xu Tong is reluctant to come up with better ones Spiritual tea is served, but the amount of spiritual energy contained in the better spiritual tea is too much, and it cannot be transported into the outlying islands covered by thousands of miles of smoke and waves.

Not to mention that high-quality spiritual tea cannot be transported in, even Yang Lu's Surge Sword cannot pass through the formation prohibition on the outskirts of the outlying island because of its high internal spiritual energy content, so it can only be temporarily stored in the Qingning Chamber of Commerce.

So the strongest magic weapon in Yang Lu's hands is actually Li Qingning's crescent hairpin.He can already imagine what kind of social death scene it would be if he took out the crescent hairpin to fight against the enemy like Dongfang Bubai...

It is said that because spirit stones could not be transported into the outlying islands, trade in outlying islands was carried out in the form of barter in the early years. The lack of general equivalents also caused great difficulties for outlying island business activities. It was not until the issuance of spirit stone coupons and spirit stone coins that the outlying island trade began With a suitable trading medium, the outlying island trade ushered in a golden age.

Since both Yang Lu and Lin Dong were not familiar with Island Master Xu, it was mainly Han Fulai who came forward to negotiate with the other party, and Island Master Xu quickly quarreled with the three of them.

According to Island Master Xu, the current situation on outlying islands is indeed very pessimistic.

Facing the rampant attack of the Huoyun State forces, the major lords of the outlying islands formed a coalition army to crusade against them under the guidance of the windows of the cultivation forces behind them.

Considering the large numbers of coalition forces on the outlying islands, the coalition forces decided to use the momentum of Mount Tai to fight the Huoyun Prefecture forces quickly.

Unexpectedly, Tian Beixi had the same idea!

Since the coaches of both sides were eager to fight, the two sides soon broke out several large-scale frontal battles.It was in these few battles that Tian Beixi showed incredible strength.

Although the number of outlying island coalition forces is several times that of the opponent, and they take the initiative to challenge each other every day in the form of wheel battles, the opponent still shows no signs of depletion of aura. Several large-scale battles have ended in the disastrous defeat of the outlying island coalition forces.
