The Devil Comes to America

Chapter 381: Nascent Soul Begins

California is having a huge headache regarding post-disaster relief.

The state government has already lost a lot of money, and more money is flowing out every day.

Congressman Xiong En was also present at the state government meeting.

Although this is against the rules, there is no other way. Master Xiong En's influence has to be there.

Moreover, many people have no idea how rich the Dark Gold Group is. They only know that it took them a long time to fight a battle with those guys on Wall Street and came away with a great victory.

A trap that lured them into turned out to be a cash cow for them.

"This is the biggest problem right now." Finance Minister Joel said helplessly, "Although the federal government's actions are shameless, let's be honest. At least they saved a lot of money and got a lot of money. Although they were scolded, so what? Can those disaster victims still rush into Washington with guns?"

The people around nodded. What they didn't understand was why Xiong En was so enthusiastic about disaster relief.

Xiong En actually didn't understand either. It was such a good opportunity to make money, why was Jia Yu so keen on asking him to help with disaster relief?
Although he didn't understand, Xiong En knew that he still had to listen to him.

Xiong En didn't respect Jia Yu as much as he respected Xiu Nuo, but he knew that this Oriental man was much more vicious than that gentleman.

The consequence of offending that gentleman is nothing but death, and he seems to have a good temper.

But Jia Yu is a complete psychopath, and offending him will not end well.

Although he didn't understand it, Jia Yu said that people's hearts will be more important than votes in the future.

Xiong En doesn’t care about public opinion, but if it is more important than votes, then it should be particularly important!
Xiong En’s idea is that simple.

So Xiong En said at this time: "For example? Is it still money?"

"There are many things besides money." Joel said helplessly. He was one of the first guys in the state government who was scared and surrendered, so he answered all of Xiong En's questions.

"Money can buy a lot of things, but after these natural disasters, the prices of a lot of infrastructure materials have skyrocketed. The few workers are simply too busy to handle the work, and their labor costs have increased a lot."

"so what?"

"So, Mr. Congressman, this is a huge expense. We roughly estimated that the money we want to rebuild could build a new city. Moreover, with the financial burden of free injections, we might really go bankrupt."

"Besides, you know, we need to resettle a large number of disaster victims, which also costs a lot of money. The point is that when there are too many people, it is easy for them to cause trouble, and the pressure on public security is huge. They have too many demands."

Xiong En said, "Let's outsource it."

"Huh? Outsourcing?"

"These disaster victims are now similar to homeless people, except that they often don't realize they are homeless. Let's outsource this part of the matter to the Homeless Shelter. They manage the homeless people very well, don't they?"

"Um, do you know how they manage homeless people?"

"How?"

"In a gangster way."

"Aren't we going to solve the problem now? Just take it step by step and leave it to them."

Everyone looked at each other and understood.

Sure enough, Xiong En was quite normal. He was so active in disaster relief that they almost thought he was a capitalist traitor.

Now it turns out that it’s all for making money for myself.

Who doesn’t know who the big money sponsor behind the homeless shelter is?
It's just you, Basel.

The finance minister went on to say, "As for rescuing people, we are short of manpower."

"What a great opportunity." Xiong En said, "There are a lot of people in those private rescue teams who have nowhere to go. Let them come and help us with the rescue."

"Ah?" an official said quickly, "FEMA will not agree to this."

Xiong En looked at the female official unhappily: "Our people are dying, who cares about that damn FEMA? People don't have the money to buy a plane ticket to the White House, but they definitely have the legs to walk to the front door of the state government!"

"But this is against federal law. Congress has already passed the illegal disaster relief bill."

Xiong En waved his hand: "California has its own state of affairs."

“But FEMA”

"That's enough miss, stop giving me this place, okay? Where is their person in charge? Los Angeles, right?"

"And San Francisco," the finance minister said, "that was the hardest hit by the tsunami. The Port of San Diego was in a terrible state."

"Then find a reason to arrest them all." Xiong En looked at the people present in confusion: "I'm still young, so I don't know a lot of things, but don't you understand what political persecution is? Can we persecute all the bastards who stand in our way?"

"Of course, you can continue to try to convince me." Xiong En looked at everyone and said, "Then I will donate money."

Everyone was stunned, and then they were delighted.

This prodigal son of the Basel family is crazy in every way except one thing: he really spends money.

If your family is willing to spend money, that would be the best!

Just when someone was about to say something, Xiong En continued, "I will also call on the state government and the state and city councils to donate money! I will also form a preparation team, and I will personally lead the team. The entire process will be broadcast live on CWN, and I will go door to door to find you and ask you to be kind and save our people."

Everyone: "."

"Those bastards from the federal government! They in Washington have no idea what we've been through!" An official yelled, "I support Congressman Xiong En's decision. Those FEMA guys are not here to help with disaster relief. They are here to suck our blood and eat our flesh! We must tell them that California has its own laws! We will never compromise with the federal government's anti-human laws!"

Xiong En looked at the guy and said, "Well said sir, I feel your kindness, and this kindness does not need to be measured in dollars."

The people around suddenly realized!
Joel said, “But FEMA is right in saying that private rescue teams will indeed expand the impact of the disaster. Although they won’t say it, everyone who sees it will think that the government is a bit useless. We can only rescue some cats and dogs.”

Xiong En was silent, as if listening to something.

Then he said, "Here's an opportunity, gentlemen. Can't the state government go with the rescue team?"

Everyone's expressions changed.

Rescue is never a risk-free thing. In fact, post-disaster rescue is an extremely dangerous thing. If you are not careful, you will become the one waiting to be rescued.

Or the one waiting to be reborn.

Why don't we just sit in the office and risk my life?

Xiong En went on to say: "Then, we will set up a California rescue department ourselves and bring in all those private rescue teams. We don't have to pay them anyway, so we just give them a name. Then, we will provide them with some rescue equipment and spray our name on it."

"Isn't this just a show?" an official said after a moment of surprise.

Xiong En said seriously, "We are circumventing the evil federal law and saving our own citizens! Believe me, gentlemen, as long as you don't participate in the damn distribution of post-disaster benefits, you will be a good person even if you follow the rescue team to the disaster area to take a photo."

"That's what I want to say." Joel said again: "Now many companies have found us and want to discuss future matters, including many building materials companies, real estate companies, and..."

"Get them out!" Xiong En said with a dark face, "California is our territory, no one can take advantage of this opportunity to get in! Isn't it bad enough that they were cheated? I think there is nothing wrong with my idea. We need to provide private rescue teams with good enough tools. The Bazel family has already bought them, and the state government only needs to pay for them. Believe me, it will definitely be cheaper than those guys who take advantage of the situation. Just remember to tear off the origin label when the time comes."

Everyone was stunned.

Then it dawned on me!

The Bazel family violated the trade ban again and brought things from the University of Tokyo!

But
What can you say to them in this situation? If it is a political show, then at least it should be done. If you don't do it from Dongda to control the cost, then do you do it from that Dongda?
Their stuff is cheap, but if you dare to use it, you'll end up with a clown show.

Forget it. Anyway, the things were provided by the Basel family and the state government bought them from the Basel family.

"Also." Xiong En looked at everyone and said, "I think since California can accept illegal immigrants and our own labor costs are so high, why don't we bring some people in from outside?"

"The state government has no power to issue work visas, Mr. Congressman."

"Understood. I'll go back and draft the bill."

The governor finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Xiong En, calm down, this is the federal right!"

“Is it not possible to just stay in California and not leave California?”

"Of course not!"

"Then let's be independent." Xiong En said, "At least, I know that if we can issue some work visas and bring in a group of infrastructure talents from the other side of the sea, we can save a lot of money!"

The faces of the people around turned pale.

"Do you know how many warships there are in San Diego Harbor and how many missiles are on them?"

Xiong En smiled: "The Federation did not recognize the independence of Arizona, right?"

"Um, of course not."

"That's fine." Xiong En said, "I hope the state government can cooperate with me in handling the post-disaster reconstruction. Believe me, the financial pressure will be greatly reduced, and everyone will be praised by the people and make a lot of money!"

Everyone suddenly realized.

So it's you who wants to make money again!
"Okay everyone, if you have no objection, I will go back first. I still have to prepare for the donation."

Everyone was stunned, and the governor quickly said: "Xiong En, you..."

"Don't worry." Xiong En smiled and said, "Everyone has cooperated with me so well. I am definitely not asking you for money this time. However, the financial pressure on the state government is indeed very large, so I plan to ask some friends to donate a little. It can be regarded as my contribution to the state as a state legislator."

Xiong En left after saying this.

Leaving behind a group of people looking at each other.

They looked at the Finance Minister.

Joel shrugged. “If someone can get the money, why wouldn’t we support them?”

Xiunuo didn’t know what was happening outside, he only saw the tremendous thunder in the sky.

Well, there's no escape this time.

Thinking about his previous strength, Xiunuo didn't pretend this time.

As a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, the merits in Xiunuo's body instantly blessed his entire body. For a moment, Xiunuo's entire body was shining with golden light.

The terrifying heavenly calamity that was targeting him seemed to have lost its target in an instant.

Logically speaking, if any bolt of lightning just circles around the ground, the calamity that I am facing should also be over.

At least that's the theory.

If this is not the last one, we have done a lot of good deeds now. Although skipping classes is shameful, it is useful.

But things didn't seem as simple as Xiunuo thought.

That heavenly tribulation showed no sign of leaving.

Not only did it not leave, this calamity.
Is this spreading?
Xiunuo looked up at the sky, which was pitch black.

Relying on the fact that he is now a golden man of merit, Xiu Nuo soared into the sky. He suddenly discovered that the dark clouds covering the sun seemed a little too far away.

At this time, with the Sonoran Desert as the center, several surrounding states looked up at the sky. It was clear that the hurricane disaster had just passed, so the sky should be clear.

But what about now?
Dark clouds are gathering! Something is going wrong!

Are these western states being punished by God?
Xiu Nuo fell back to the ground, and at this moment, the demon cultivator's instinctive killing intent took effect.

Xiunuo's body suddenly turned sideways, and the next moment, a figure broke out of the ground!

Seeing this man's appearance, Xiu Nuo narrowed his eyes: "As expected."

The person who appeared in front of Xiunuo at this time was none other than the federal naval rear admiral who was sentenced to death by the Arizona government and then killed on the day of Independence to comply with public opinion. What was his name?

Morgan?

But Morgan at this moment was obviously no longer himself. There was golden light emanating from his eyes and he had an extremely powerful aura.

Xiu Nuo grinned and said, "I was wondering where Arizona's national destiny was going. I knew it wasn't that simple. After all this time, I knew that Arizona's independence was inevitable, so I just put everything here, right?"

Morgan naturally didn't say anything. He kicked his feet and rushed towards Xiunuo in an instant!

A ghostly presence appeared in Xiunuo's hand, and the two sides collided instantly.

The next moment, Xiunuo's body flew out!

"This power is a bit outrageous." Xiunuo stabilized his body instantly.

He knew why this guy came out at this time.

One's own merits can only be used to deal with the heavenly calamity, and all previous reserves have been exhausted.

If you want to deal with this guy, the most effective way is to use incense.

However, if the incense is burned now.
Seeing this guy coming in front of him again, Xiunuo's merits instantly turned into incense. Youli collided with the sharp blade, and this time, the blade was instantly cut in half by Youli!
But at the same time, the heavenly calamity locked onto Xiunuo in an instant.

A bolt of lightning fell from the sky!

Xiu Nuo did not hesitate at all, the incense was transformed and he was surrounded by merits.

After the thunder struck Xiunuo, nothing happened to him. But at the moment when the thunder dissipated, Morgan was already in front of him again.

Poof!
Xiunuo had no time to change and could only try his best to dodge when the sharp blade pierced his abdomen!

Xiu Nuo pulled back, made a gesture with his hands, and the blood stopped flowing instantly.

But his body was not at peace. The power of national destiny that invaded his body seemed to tear him apart.

Xiunuo immediately threw out the sword box, and the moment the sword box wrapped around him, all the merits in his body turned into incense.

As the incense is consumed, the power of merit wraps around the sword box.

After Xiunuo recovered, he saw that Morgan was approaching him again.

Xiunuo learned his lesson this time and he withdrew!

I won’t fight anymore!

He's been pretending to be so good here that he almost forgot that he's just a Taoist demon cultivator.

He has now realized what this national destiny is going to do.

He is consuming his own incense.

Although incense can be used to deal with him, it will also result in consumption on both sides.

And he also had to guard against the heavenly tribulation. This guy would leave when the heavenly tribulation fell, and attack him again the moment it dissipated.

If this continues, I will either be defeated by the state's fortune because my incense has run out, or I will be struck to death by a thunderbolt if I don't have time to switch.

Xiu Nuo fled quickly. He had already made up his mind that after I have stabilized my Nascent Soul this time, I will make the incense I offer to you so popular that you will be left far behind.

He has thought of a perfect way to obtain incense, but the prerequisite is that this disaster must be over first.

Then the national destiny will naturally follow closely.

Soon, Xiunuo found that he was approaching the border.

An idea came to Xiunuo's mind: If he left America, what could this country's destiny do to him?
He shouldn't be able to come out, right?
But Xiunuo immediately realized something was wrong. With the speed at which Guoyun attacked him, he shouldn't be able to catch up with him.

How come he always maintains a speed that seems to be catching up with me but never does?

Xiunuo was shocked when he thought of this.

This guy just wants me to leave!

Xiunuo stopped instantly and looked back at the national destiny.

Then he quickly turned around and headed east.

Guoyun seemed to realize something and instantly came in front of Xiunuo.

Xiu Nuo curled his lips and said, "I can catch up with it, what about this?"

Xiunuo's body turned into a shadow and instantly appeared several kilometers away.

This is Youli's own shadow escape technique.

Guoyun naturally followed closely, but just when Xiunuo was about to reach New Mexico, he stopped again.

"If I go over now, you'll probably become stronger, right?"

At this moment, Guoyun no longer intended to pretend, and a figure appeared in front of Xiunuo!
With a "puff", the sharp blades of Guoyun's arms pierced through Xiunuo's heart.

He was very surprised that Xiu Nuo didn't dodge this time!

Xiunuo's face turned pale, and then his whole body was covered with incense!

He grabbed the guy in front of him and grinned: "You waited until now to make a move because you wanted to set a dead end for me. But... you don't seem to understand that since you are practicing the magic way, everyone has to risk their lives to survive!"

"This is my Nascent Soul Tribulation! You will suffer it together with me!"

The next moment, rolling thunder fell from the sky!

The light of incense on Xiunuo's body is brighter!

The next moment, the two of them were enveloped by the thunder!
A miserable wail came from the mouth of Guoyun, but Xiunuo himself held him tightly!
I saw a golden light shining brightly on this guy, as if the country's fortune was improving.

The incense on Xiunuo's body was quickly consumed.

After a moment, the light of the incense was exhausted!
In the sea of ​​consciousness, golden light enveloped Xiunuo's golden elixir, and Xiunuo's physical body began to collapse!
At the last moment, the golden light of merit belonging to Xiunuo bloomed.

Merit enveloped Xiunuo's whole body, and the thunder dissipated.

Xiunuo's body fell from the sky, and with him was Morgan, who was possessed by the destiny of the country.

In Xiunuo's sea of ​​consciousness, the golden elixir shattered!

But the golden light did not dissipate, but was constantly condensing.
The outline of a little man began to appear.

With a loud bang, a big hole was smashed into the desert, and Xiunuo was lying at the bottom of the hole.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, some demon seeds dimmed, and these forces supported Xiunuo to slowly open his eyes.

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and a life-saving spiritual rain was about to fall.

But what came faster than it was the destiny of the country.

Guoyun's whole body was now crackling with arcs of electricity, and all the gaps on Morgan's body were emitting golden light.

He rushed towards Xiunuo suddenly, his arms turned into sharp claws and rushed straight towards Xiunuo's face!

With a snap, the sharp claws were blocked by Youli!

Youli was floating in front of Xiunuo at this time, and the black and red sword body was shaking and making a sword sound.

Xiunuo held the sword in his hand, but it was obvious that he was already at the end of his strength.

click
click
Cracks appeared on the blade of the Youli sword.

And there was a bright golden light on Morgan's body!

However, the next moment, before Youli could shatter again, Morgan's body suddenly exploded!
Countless golden lights exploded in the air, and Xiunuo heard the unwilling cry!

Youli fell on Xiunuo, and the man and the sword looked incredibly miserable.

Youli was swaying, the sword kept ringing, Xiunuo smiled bitterly and said, "I know, I won't play second fiddle next time, from now on I will use my virtue to protect my body when I pass the tribulation!"

"Isn't it mainly because I have no experience? When I was a demon cultivator, I never saw something as luxurious as merit."

Xiu Nuo looked at the dissipated golden light and said, "This guy attacked us at this time, which proves that under normal circumstances, he is not our opponent, or in other words, the person possessed by the national destiny is not our opponent."

"With too much national fortune, the person he possesses will be the first to collapse. Knowing this weakness, this sin was not in vain."

Just as Xiunuo was speaking, heavy rain began to fall from the sky!
Countless spiritual energy poured into Xiunuo's body while he sat cross-legged.

This rain was not just here for Xiunuo. The heavenly calamity obviously came with the attitude that since it had come, it couldn't strike Xiunuo at first, so it struck somewhere else.

That strange thunderstorm made the western states see what destructive power is.

It also allowed countless people to witness how the New York bridge was collapsed by lightning.

And as the thunder fades away, the rain begins to fall!

Many people were bathed in the rain, and they could clearly feel that their bodies seemed to have improved, but soon, their faces changed.

does that mean
Am I going to be a test subject? A candidate for the federal government's blood bag?

In the desert, Xiunuo slowly opened his eyes.

The Nascent Soul, which was like a baby, floated in the sea of ​​consciousness and sat cross-legged.

Xiunuo stood up slowly, took a step forward, and a dark evil spirit emerged under his feet.

The next moment, Xiunuo soared into the sky, raised his hand and waved it, and all the spiritual rain falling in the desert was absorbed into it.

Then, Xiunuo looked into the distance, as if waiting for something.

Not long after, two F22s came with a huge roar!

Xiunuo grinned and waved at the two fighter planes.

As soon as the two battle armors saw the existence in front of them, their bodies exploded instantly!

Then, Xiunuo took a step forward and appeared a thousand meters away, shrinking the distance to an inch without the need for the Shadow Escape Technique.

The Nascent Soul is initially formed!
