Cosmic Demon

Chapter 119: When a common man gets angry, he becomes like an old friend (First update!)

Chen Yun leaned against the inner wall of the elevator and smiled at Qin Shi:

"Do you really want to do this job well? Xiao Qin, don't take it too seriously. I applied for this temporary inspection certificate for you because I learned from my father that you have some conflicts with the Qin family."

She played with the sunglasses hanging on her chest, as if she remembered something unpleasant, and said with a sigh:

"Chen and Lin rule half the world, Qin and Zheng fill the streets, this is a saying passed down by the older generation in Hengzhou. I was born in the Chen family, and I have benefited a lot from it. I understand that these forces that are named after pioneer families and have taken root in big cities have many ways to suppress or crush anyone they want."

Qin Shi had just finished taking the third-level temporary inspection certificate exam. He didn't consume much physical energy and looked relaxed.

He listened to Chen Yun carefully. In the era of the universe, if Dongxia wanted to shake the sea of ​​stars with personal strength alone, he would have to be a martial god.

Under the God of War, one cannot escape from the rules.

"Hengzhou has been pioneering for thousands of years, and many geniuses have emerged, even at the level of Jiaoyang, but none of them have made much of a splash. In the final analysis, the upper-level resources are firmly in the hands of the four major pioneer families in the central city. Their ancestors established the order of the land under their feet, which gave the younger generations too many advantages."

Qin Shi nodded. He learned from searching online and reading bits and pieces of history books that the pioneer family system was a system that had been passed down from ancient times to the present day.

The original purpose was to curb the huge roots of the aristocratic families and "exile" them to remote areas to carry out extremely dangerous pioneering work. At the same time, huge profits were given as a carrot dangling at their lips to make them willingly serve as consumables. Moreover, over time, due to the high-intensity competition for breeding insects, a few powerful people would often appear in the side branches, which in turn suppressed the main branch.

Dongxia used this open approach to turn the aristocratic families into blood-making machines, expanding the territory for the empire. Tens of thousands of military nobles and administrative governors emerged from them, and only then did they have the grand goal of unifying the Milky Way.

However, with the unprecedented "Iron People Rebellion" and the world-destroying disaster of the "Resurrection of the Star God", those border planets have become separatist places similar to vassal states, and are no longer willing to accept the conscription and dispatch of the Dongxia Empire.

This period is called the "Turbulent Age".

Until the flag of the Dongxia Republic was raised, the nine marshals restarted the Great Expedition and recovered the lost and fallen old territories.

During this period, the pioneer family was reactivated and became an important part of the operation of the huge war machine.

There are only restrictions. When a thousand years of pioneering is over, it is the "harvest day" and each pioneer family will leave and return to their ancestral land.

"Chen, Lin, Qin, and Zheng, the main vein left a thousand years ago, but because of the explosion in the eastern suburbs of Dangyang, a high-level electronic demon was born, which may even awaken the sleeping star god, causing Hengzhou to be blocked from the outside world."

Chen Yun crossed his arms and said softly:
"My father believes that some of the rapidly developing side branches of the pioneer families do not want to return and hand over their gains, but instead plan to continue to stay in Hengzhou and become local tyrants."

Sister Yun, just mention the name of the Qin family in Yancheng!

The corners of Qin Shi's mouth twitched, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"In short, the Qin family is not easy to mess with. Over the years, they have absorbed branches with extremely thin blood ties, such as the Qin Renying family in Mang Village, to strengthen their own strength and accumulate a strong foundation. The Bo Zuo family, who have no real backing or background, are often very passive when facing them alone."

The elevator door opened, Chen Yun stepped out, and suddenly turned around and said:
"We must improve our rights in all aspects. Citizen treatment, resource channels, and even status privileges. Only in this way can we avoid being coerced and succumbed."

Qin Shi nodded. Lin Yunqing also said something similar to him, asking him to use the sponsorship amount of the Hengzhou Martial Arts Association as much as possible to increase resource purchasing rights and strive to become a senior member of a giant company like United Pharmaceuticals.

Chen Yun pushed open the office door and asked directly without paying any attention to Wei Zheguang who had not yet left:

"Old Feng, are the documents ready?"

"Fresh out of the oven, still hot."

Old Feng handed something to Chen Yun, who then passed it to Qin Shi.

The black leather wraps around personal photos and identity information and can be folded into the size of a palm.

The ancient emblem on the rifle bayonet is particularly eye-catching, with the two gold-plated words "Patrol" printed below.

[Name: Qin Shi]

[Affiliated unit: Tai'an Chenghua District Inspection Branch]

【Document code: xxxxxxxx】

"With this, anyone who wants to arrest or interrogate you must produce a document or warrant stamped by the Inspection Department."

Chen Yun was satisfied. Getting the temporary inspection certificate was equivalent to giving Xiao Qin an extra layer of insurance to prevent the Qin family from using shady tricks or tripping him up in the future.

In an orderly society, it is easier for bigwigs who control resources or have the right to speak to use rules to bully others.

Broader charges such as provoking disturbances, illegal business operations, and abuse of power can easily be pinned on any citizen.

"Thank you, Sister Yun, and Brother Feng."

Qin Shi was very polite and thanked them one by one.

As a high school student, even if he has the protection of Tai'an's top leader Chen Ruofu, he will still be controlled if he encounters a hostile force with the same background.

With this amulet in hand, at least trying to use the law to suppress others through procedures will not work.

"You're welcome."

Old Feng waved his hand and said:

"Xiao Qin, this is the first time I've seen an all-round genius like you. Fighting, mechanical maintenance, mind control, everything is possible without any weaknesses. But don't be fooled by professional teachers. Choosing the mechanical department is a sure mistake!"

Before he finished, he did not forget to remind Qin Shi.

"Okay. I'll focus on the martial arts department, Brother Feng."

Qin Shi agreed with a smile.

The youngest one wants to apply to a top university of science and technology and major in mechanical engineering.

I don’t know what I will become in the future, like a beautiful girl programmer?
From beginning to end, Qin Shi didn't pay much attention to Wei Zheguang and treated him as air.

After Chen Yun and the others left, the latter gnashed his teeth in anger:
"This kid is too arrogant! He is just exceptionally talented and capable, what else is there besides that!"

Old Feng Zhaxin said:

"Still younger than you, Brother Wei."

Wei Zheguang glared:
"Get out! One on one! Lao Feng!"

……

……

When we returned to the talent apartment, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

After obtaining the temporary inspection certificate, Chen Yun treated Qin Shi to a hotpot meal and then sent him to his residence.

The overall process is quite similar to a date between a boyfriend and a girlfriend.

If you add the number of messages received by the terminal.

The smell seemed stronger.

[Soft Rabbit: Assistant Teacher Xiao Qin, are you done with school? ]

[Soft Rabbit: Do you want to come to my house? I just got two new boxes of high-energy canned food? ]

[Soft Rabbit: Haha, he must be busy practicing, right?]

[Soft Rabbit: What to eat tonight? I know a new hot pot restaurant. ]

[Soft Rabbit: Hahahaha.JPG]

"The role played by Teacher Lin doesn't seem very positive."

Qin Shi walked into the elevator and lowered his head to reply to the message.

【Qin Shi: I was busy just now, I have eaten, thank you. 】

Simple three-in-one, straightforward and direct.

Qin Shi turned off his communication, swiped his card to enter the apartment, and started his "after-school study".

The vast majority of people need schools and teachers to play a disciplinary role.

But he has the monument panel, which is a more positive feedback-based way of supervision.

Every bit of progress, every bit of reward, appeared clearly in his mind. "My vitality is 34 points, which is still a long way from catching up with the average level of Qiguangheng University's martial arts department."

Qin Shi took out two bottles of level three energy liquid from the refrigerator as a supplement for today's consumption.

Then, I continued to hone my fighting and training techniques, positioning my body into different standing positions to guide the Qi through the body.

As he immersed himself in the practice, his forehead lit up again, as if catching the strange energy floating in the air.

The spiritual space named "Sea of ​​Consciousness" by Jiuwu was gradually filled with thick mist, as if it could penetrate the brain and radiate outwards.

"It is indeed beneficial to take a small step forward in your spiritual realm."

Qin Shi closed his eyes, and the dark vision turned into a 360-degree panoramic view with no blind spots.

Mental power seeps into the surroundings like mist, covering a maximum range of seven or eight meters.

"It's very useful for guarding against sneak attacks."

Qin Shi felt a little dizzy and was not quite used to this dynamic perspective like a panoramic map.

While practicing old martial arts to improve his physical strength, he also nurtured his spirit and nourished his soul.

The advantage is efficient use of time, but the disadvantage is that double resources are consumed.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh.

About every forty minutes of practice, Qin Shi had to drink a bottle of expensive level three energy liquid to ensure that his body was always fully nourished.

About three hours later, the hands struck twelve o'clock.

Qin Shi stopped practicing and threw the three iron cans containing energy liquid into the trash can.

He opened the terminal again and processed the message.

[Soft Rabbit: Then you should go to bed early. ]

【Soft Rabbit: Good Night.JPG】

【Chen Yun: I asked for you. The inspection department can be equipped with electric batons, handcuffs, or a basic bulletproof vest.】

After sweeping the room roughly, Qin Shi washed up, cleaned himself, and went to bed.

Although the [Deep Sleep] achievement has evolved into the legendary talent [Steel of Heart], the habit of good work and rest has been retained.

Before he fell asleep, he selected the target as [The Return of the Long Whale to the Sea] of the Qi Guang Heng University Martial Arts Department, and then began to recall the battle and continue to hone his offensive and defensive awareness.

"This time, let's challenge the ban on dodging and clear the level without taking any damage."

Qin Shi thought so.

……

……

Opposite the Talent Apartment.

Looking away from the telescope, the white-haired old man nodded approvingly:
"Extreme self-discipline and continuous diligence will not overdraw your potential, but will also ensure steady progress."

Ren You, who was serving beside him, twitched his lips and couldn't help but said:

"Teacher, spying on others... is not a good idea. If it gets out, it will damage the reputation of Nanhuang Gym."

The white-haired old man raised his eyebrows and scolded:
"This is my future apprentice, the future successor of Nanhuang Dojo. How can this be called peeping? Observing! Do you understand?"

Ren You was speechless. He never expected that the teacher had already taken a liking to Qin but had never chosen to make it public.

Instead, he first sent one of his competitors, Xu Bichang, the inspector of the Education Department, to the hospital.

This style of behavior is too extreme!
"In the martial arts world of the old era, when a master who inherited a school of martial arts chose a successor, he would often conduct several tests to determine the other party's character, talent, and character before making a decision."

The white-haired old man spoke confidently and confidently:
"I am just observing this! This boy is not bad, very good. He is young and full of vigor, but he can endure loneliness, which is quite rare. In addition to following the old martial arts path, he also remembers to cultivate his mind. No wonder he has already broken through the two limits at such a young age."

Ren You asked in confusion:

"Teacher, since you also think that Qin is outstanding, why don't you just admit him to the Nanhuang Dojo?"

The white-haired old man sneered:

"What do you know! Hengzhou claims to be promoting new martial arts and educational reform, but in fact too many conservative elements use this as a cover to suppress dissidents and eliminate opponents.

In the past, Hengzhou's products, such as iron-splitting crocodile meat, Yangshan ganoderma, and mud-melting grass, were monopolized by four companies in the central city. The younger generation probably had never even heard of them.

In the past, there were many old martial arts schools, all of which needed resources to strengthen themselves. When the new martial arts schools came to power, they banned various schools and confiscated many inheritances. These were just superficial. The real purpose was to reduce the number of old martial arts schools and control the source of resources in their hands so that they could do business with the giant consortiums in the vast star sea. "

There was a flash of unwillingness in Ren You's eyes. He had been in the Central City with his teacher for a long time, so how could he not know the true face of that group of new martial arts schools? They were all ruthless people.

The old man with white hair, whose qi and blood were declining and who looked like a candle in the wind, sighed deeply:
"The meat of the iron-cracked crocodile alone is the main ingredient of various high-energy protein bars. The annual purchases by United Pharmaceuticals alone are enough to make them eat a lot of oil, not to mention the main ingredients of the fourth-level energy liquid, Yangshanzhi and Nirongcao, which are huge cakes worth hundreds of billions or trillions of dollars.

As Nanhuang Dojo grows bigger and the number of disciples of the old martial arts sect increases, they will naturally want to take a piece of it. Will they be happy about that? Therefore, I am a thorn in the side of Central City. "

Ren You was silent. Even in the Republic of Dongxia, where artificial cultivation and breeding technology were extremely advanced, many spiritual substances and even rare medicines could not be replicated at all.

For the case of the Iron-Splitting Crocodile, artificial breeding has broken through the technical barriers and the price has been lowered, but the growth environment of the Yangshan Ganoderma and the Mud-Melting Grass is special, and it is not possible to cultivate them perfectly for the time being.

"There are many conservative forces in the central city who don't want to see the old martial arts send out talents. This kid has accepted He Lanchan's inheritance and has entered the upper echelons' vision. Once he enters the Nanhuang Dojo and has a license to carry weapons and armor, it will be a huge destabilizing factor.

Don't forget what great things He Lanchan had done in the past. He proved with his actions that when a common man is angry, the whole world will be in mourning, so he ended up like that in the end."

The white-haired old man spoke earnestly, as if recalling some secret from the past.

Ren You's expression also changed.

Administrative planets like Dijing or Haizhou, where electronic blockades are not strict, have extremely developed network communications. Some bored people once made a timeline of the sudden death of Yan Shaoqing, the highest honorary chairman of the Dongxia Martial Arts Association and the leader of the new martial arts school, the complete retreat of the first generation of top ten heroes, and the mysterious death of He Lanchan.

This leads to a very ridiculous conspiracy theory.

The transition from the new Wu to the old Wu was not peaceful, and there may have been a bloody conflict of a serious nature.

The post was quite popular, but was quickly deleted and blocked.

"But this kid is smart enough to put a talisman on himself. The big hand of Central City can't reach out for a while and can't endanger him."

The white-haired old man looked out the window at the dense night and said softly:

"The more people who rely on their ancestors' merits to enjoy the benefits of their ancestors and those who are just sitting there doing nothing, the more they fear those who are armed and armored and lawless.

The Wushu Association and the Education Department are gradually recalling the licenses they issued in the past, and the one for Nanhuang Dojo is no exception.

Unless you reach my level, it will be hard to hold on. Going against the trend has always been difficult. "

Ren You looked towards the Talent Apartment, where the lights on the seventeenth floor had been turned off, and suddenly said:
"So Nanhuang Gym needs a true Sunshine Genius."

The white-haired old man shook his head:
"Wrong, it's Beyond Jiaoyang. I was much stronger than that stupid martial arts Jiaoyang back then. I've defeated dozens of Jiaoyang-level geniuses from the thirty-two administrative districts!"

The corners of Ren You's mouth twitched. Well, the teacher is here again.

Sure enough, the white-haired old man took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

While puffing out smoke, he recounted the past:
"Hey, Xiao Ren, the teacher is telling you..."

"Teacher, please take care of yourself."

"Don't worry, martial artists who don't smoke, drink, or touch women usually die quickly, like He Lanchan. Only those who possess all five poisons can live long."

The white-haired old man coughed twice, his eyes dazed.

He thought of the majestic spirit contained in the clay tablet.

It’s really like you, damn He Lanchan!
