I'm the Demon King in Marvel

Chapter 607: Little brother, do you want to pass on the fire?
Xu Gaohua, who had nowhere to go, stopped to listen to the message left by Liu Xing.

"Sir, I met your father once. Half a month ago, at the funeral of Mr. Chen Yang in the Western Suburbs Cemetery, my father was also buried on the same day..."

Chen Yang is Chen Che's father. Liu Xing has seen the tombstone next to his father and knows the name of "his father's current neighbor".

Listening to the message and looking at Liu Xing's appearance in the video, Xu Gaohua's enhanced memory quickly reproduced the scenes of that day in his mind. He found that he had really seen Liu Xing, but everyone was busy that day and there was no conversation.

As for being mistaken for his "son", Xu Gaohua was not surprised, after all, he is younger now.

This is how it is between people. If you find out that you have met someone before, your psychological defenses will be instantly lowered.

Especially since Xu Gaohua is now in a state of being alone, he felt much more at ease after feeling Liu Xing's kindness.

The other party did not take his money and belongings while he was unconscious, nor did he call the police, which made Xu Gaohua confirm the other party's good intentions.

"The canned food in the refrigerator has expired. I have some newly bought frozen dumplings in the kitchen. You can make do with them for now. I'll bring you some food tomorrow morning."

After listening to the message left by Liu Xing, Xu Gaohua thought for a moment. With nowhere to go, he decided to stay for the time being.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Liu Xing pushed open the door carrying a large bag of food. Xu Gaohua, who heard the noise, had already picked up a kitchen knife and hid behind the door.

"Oh my god!" Liu Xing was startled when the door closed.

Finding that Liu Xing was the only one there, Xu Gaohua put down the kitchen knife in his hand and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."

"Did something happen to you?" Liu Xing became curious when he saw Xu Gaohua's cautious look.

Yesterday, Xu Gaohua was wearing tattered clothes, was dirty all over, and didn't even have shoes. He was so weak that he was unconscious and it was obvious that he was in trouble.

Xu Gaohua naturally would not easily reveal it to strangers, he just shook his head.

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to talk, Liu Xing did not force him. After putting down the food, he left and went to work on the farm in the suburbs.

"If you want to leave, just close the door. Of course, you can also ask me to help you contact your family..."

"I have no family left." Xu Gaohua's voice was extremely low.

"Ah?" Liu Xing was stunned, thinking that the elderly bald man he met half a month ago had an accident.

However, Liu Xing understood the principle of "don't talk too much with people you just met", so he stopped asking questions, closed the door and left.

After being depressed for a while, Xu Gaohua picked up the food brought by Liu Xing and walked towards the kitchen. After his body was strengthened, his digestion ability and metabolism were improved. Low-calorie food was not enough to resist hunger. The dumplings he had eaten last night had been digested long ago.

After a hearty meal, Xu Gaohua began to think about what to do next, whether there was any way to get to Earth, or whether he could reveal the truth about the genetic modification drug on Yuanchu Star...

While thinking, Xu Gaohua discovered that the door of the study was not locked. There were a lot of old books and newspapers piled inside, and the entire wall was covered with clippings.

Xu Gaohua, who didn't dare to go out, had nothing to do, so he walked into the study and found out what Liu Xing had been studying during this period.

"This young man is actually reading Marxism-Leninism and modern history..."

The sudden discovery made Xu Gaohua curious about the unfamiliar Liu Xing. He began to look in detail at the traces left by Liu Xing in the study, and even very impolitely looked through Liu Xing's study notes on the desk.

"It's interesting that fewer and fewer young people today are willing to learn about that period of history!"

As an old man in his sixties, it is natural to call Liu Xing, who is in his thirties, a "young man".

Xu Gaohua quickly browsed through Liu Xing's notes and found that he had only a vague understanding of many historical events and knowledge points in books, and his notes contained various questions he had written down.

“Why is my life now different from what grandpa said?”

"Why can the Tang family do whatever they want on Yuanchu Star?"

“Why are so many contents missing from the textbooks I studied?”

...The “why” and bold “?” are particularly eye-catching.

Obviously, these questions are confusing Liu Xing.

Suddenly, an amazing plan emerged in Xu Gaohua's mind.

"Since I can't go back to Earth, why not find someone else?"

However, he immediately dismissed the idea.

"No, this is too dangerous! Besides, he may not be reliable..."

With this thought in mind, Xu Gaohua could no longer calm down. The Tang family had already obtained all the data and succeeded unexpectedly once. As long as they persisted in real-person experiments, they would succeed sooner or later.

There isn't much time left for him.

After hesitating for a whole day, when Liu Xing came back from get off work, Xu Gaohua suddenly jumped out and asked, "Little brother, do you want to pass on the fire?"

As an old man in 2080, Xu Gaohua, who was born in the s of the st century, naturally understood this joke.

"Ah?" Liu Xing was at a loss.

"I'm sorry, I went to your study during the day." Xu Gaohua apologized first, then began to explain: "Don't you want to figure out those questions? I can give you the answers!"

"Really?" Liu Xing, who had been confused for a long time, was eager to know the answers to those questions.

"Call home first. You probably won't be able to go back tonight."

Seeing that Liu Xing had nothing in his hands, Xu Gaohua took out a gold bar and handed it to him.

"Please go buy some food, buy more, my appetite has grown."

After more than an hour of busy work, Xu Gaohua and Liu Xing worked together to prepare a large table of dishes, and the two ate and chatted at the table.

"You have studied history, so you should know what kind of system we have adopted. They deleted some things, but they dare not delete some things because those are the foundation for the noble families to rule the world..."

"Let me first answer your question about the changes on Yuanchu Star. Currently, the Tang family has obtained the contracting and operating rights of almost all the land on Yuanchu Star through a series of complicated operations. They use the power they hold to protect it. Even if the operating rights expire, they can still change to a white glove to continue the contracting."

"In name, they only have the right to operate and develop. In reality, no one will take back their rights. It is equivalent to the Tang family annexing all the land on Yuanchu Star. They are no different from the landlords and tyrants in ancient times."

"Combined with the ancient history you have learned, what the big landlords would do, what the local tyrants and gentry would do, and what the Tang family would do on Yuanchu Star."

"The Tang family annexed all the land on Yuanchu Star?" Liu Xing suddenly realized and took a breath of cold air: "No wonder they can do whatever they want!"

However, Liu Xing had a new doubt: "Why didn't anyone stop them?"

Xu Gaohua ate a large piece of fat meat and sneered, "Because all the noble families are doing this. They are all annexing planets one by one. Everyone has a share. Why should we stop them?"

"If you understand this question, you will understand why your grandfather's life was better than yours now. It's because your grandfather enjoyed the benefits of the era of interstellar development, while now the noble families have taken all the benefits."

"Asshole!" Liu Xing gritted his teeth. "The total volume of Yuanchu Star is larger than that of Earth. Earth can support billions of people, but there are only more than 200 million people on Yuanchu Star. There are still large tracts of undeveloped wasteland, and there are countless resource stars in the interstellar space. Why are they not satisfied and want to suck the blood of ordinary people like us?"

"Yeah, why are these vampires never satisfied?" Xu Gaohua shook his head and smiled bitterly. He couldn't figure it out.

"I can only say that desire is insatiable!"

"More than 150 years ago, America was in the midst of the Great Depression. Ordinary people lined up to receive food relief, but capitalists would rather pour milk into the sewer than distribute it to the poor, because this would make their milk completely unsaleable."

"Du Fu also wrote, 'The rich have wine and meat, while the poor freeze to death on the streets.' This shows that the wealthy and powerful families and the capitalist consortiums are of the same nature."

"Fuck, is there no way to resist them?" It was no surprise that Liu Xing had the urge to resist. After all, no normal person could tolerate such injustice.

“Resisting injustice is not like treating someone to a meal. You must be prepared to make sacrifices…” Xu Gaohua’s eyes were dim.
