Chapter 94: Conversation with the old man(1/2)
Li Wanye's dress was very formal, as if he had just attended a friend's funeral.
The stone tablet seemed to be a friend's tombstone. His black suit also made the atmosphere a little solemn.
When Tang Xian walked here, Li Wanye spoke:
"It's very quiet, right? I've never imagined that the pyramid could be so quiet one day, with no sound in the space below six hundred meters."
Tang Xian nodded. It was the first time he felt the silence in the pyramid:
"The content of this stone tablet has been eliminated."
"Yes, I was still there when I took over this fortress. It says: 'Slave of God, everything you do for God will be gifted by God.' This is what the first half is written, and the second half is some mining areas. Oh, I don't need to explain it to you, after all, this fortress was pioneered by you."
"I don't remember. Song Que, the fortress ring, shouldn't have given you the right one." Tang Xian said.
"He threw it in the mining area. Constantine said this to me. It was probably to hinder order as much as possible and to prevent the ring from exposing his position. So he threw it in the mining area." Li Wanye mentioned Song Que with a smile.
"He is becoming more and more cautious." Tang Xian also smiled.
"I actually monitored you for a long time. At that time, your nonsense in the election test was hidden by Xiao Yu. She was a little sick of her love for you, and I also paid attention to you because of this."
It was natural for Li Wanye to talk about these pasts. Is there a hint of heavy expression in his expression? It seemed that today was just talking to an old friend.
Tang Xian nodded, and the two men seemed to be talking to each other.
"Do you smoke?" Li Wanye lit a cigarette.
"No, it hurts my lungs. I'm very delicate." Tang Xian said.
Li Wanye smiled and then said:
"So I also thought, if Xiao Yu wants to marry you, will you and Song Que compete?"
Tang Xian didn't say anything, and Li Wanye smiled even deeper.
"How could I have thought that Song Gengchao gave birth to such an indisputable son. My son Li Zheng has the intention of being strong and controversial. Song Que is a real gentleman. Such a person is actually difficult to live in this world. But in the end, Song Que stood at the highest point."
"Iron Bone Strong? If you use ancient words and modern times, the meaning of Iron Bone Strong is completely reversed. As for Song Que, he should have died a long time ago. But I don't want to bear it."
Tang Xian was also laughing, but he didn't find it funny inside. He knew that the more leisurely Li Wanye seemed, the more ruthless the decision he made was.
"Yes, heroes are not tolerated, but you insist on him living and standing still. I envy him."
"Do you envy him? Let's take it down. If there is no one here, we will be the same. Song Que, you don't envy him. You even privately warned Li Zheng and Li Xiaonian not to learn from Song Que many times, right?"
"Hahahahahahahaha... I didn't expect that in this place, I actually met a confidant."
"Money is hard to make, shit is hard to eat, and heroes are hard to be. Just Song Que's life has been ups and downs several times, and his original intention remains unchanged. He really deserves this name, but his lack of heart."
Li Wanye thought this was also interesting.
"You and Song Que have become friends, and this is a good thing. Qi Xun, the son of Qi family, is too dandy. My son Li Zheng is not good at all, but his character lacks some arrogance after all. Xiao Nian... lived too ridiculous in the early years and could not get ruthless. In fact, I know the younger generation of heroes. Now I want to come and marry my daughter, it is not a grievance."
Li Wanye paused and said:
"Xiao Yu will ask you from now on. I agree to this marriage."
"I don't let her call me dad, why don't you ask me? If you agree, go and tell her."
Why are everyone asking themselves these days? Everyone has the awareness of dying?
For the sake of human beings, Tang Xian can understand that after all, he is a true supreme person with both character and beauty. What is your style of painting? Shouldn’t you try your best to survive, sleep on firewood and taste gallbladder and finally come back to the peak?
Tang Xian thought about it in his heart, but he couldn't say it.
Li Wanye said:
"Do you think I can still have such a chance?"
"Yes. But there are some troubles."
"This kind of trouble is a variable, and you may not be able to control it. If I go back, no matter what you say or what facts you make up, you cannot guarantee that you can calm people's anger, right? Those judges knights are dead objects, and this matter can no longer be suppressed. One-sixth of the population in this world dies in my hands and is driven by me as a tool. Do you know what kind of sin is this?"
"I know." Tang Xian's smile was curled, without any expression.
"I used to take risks. No matter which camp I joined, I could be sure that the Li family had a way out. So I could take risks, but this time it didn't work. If I left, the Orderer would not tolerate me, and the shelter in Song Geng's mouth would not tolerate me. I'm afraid that in the future, Xiao Yu's relationship with my daughter will also bring disadvantages to her managing that place."
"Yes, it broke out once before. Some people with ulterior motives questioned why the Li family is in charge of the fortress. If they leave the fortress, they have to listen to the Li family."
“Solved?”
"There are few people and I can't make a fuss. Song Que and Xiao Yu have settled it." Tang Xian said.
Li Wanye nodded and said:
"But ten times more people, it will be difficult to solve such a thing, right? Especially after they truly realized that the judge knight was a dead thing, and the souls of their loved ones were imprisoned, their anger towards the Li family became even more intense. Can you solve it?"
"Violence can solve all problems in the world. Dragons fly in the sky, snakes and foxes walk on the ground, and there is a phoenix in the suburbs."
"All of them are beasts? You are really a legend."
"So you don't have to die, everything will be troublesome."
Tang Xian said this so he had no confidence.
Li Wanye shook the ashes and said:
"You said too, we are the only two of us here. If you want to talk, just talk about the truth. Tang Xian, people's words are terrifying. Xiao Yu has the courage to do something like the dragon slaying warrior turned into an evil dragon, but you and I cannot agree. Humans were driven in by machinery hundreds of years ago. Now that you let these people go, the ending battle will start again. How can you bear civil strife at this time?"
Tang Xian pondered for a long time and said:
"You can live as a prisoner, at least you should meet Xiao Yu."
"I've seen the words she said at the bottom are proof of her growth, that is, the best gift she gave me as a daughter."
Li Wanye said again:
"I'm not as unkind as you think. You and Xiaonian met several times in private, but I turned a blind eye. First, I can't do anything to you. Second, you are the same choice for my sons."
"Xiao Nian has been to Huakeyuan a lot of times. Do you think I won't know the existence of the trade route? I've watched all this. I don't need to know the process. I just need to know that my daughter is still alive and lives well."
"I can't let people know that Li Wanye also has his own weaknesses. Song Gengchao likes to show kindness in front of others, filial piety. But I won't do this. I just want everyone in the world to know that Li Wanye can do anything for power and give up anything. I think you can understand what I said."
At this time, Li Wanye handed over another cigarette and said:
"Isn't it really a puff? Isn't it a try?"
"I really don't want to smoke."
Li Wanye nodded and continued:
"Of course I am reluctant to die. What if you fail one day? As the most loyal dog of the Order, I can still guard the ark fortress and take over you again. So I can't go back."
"Then do you want to go back?" Tang Xian asked.
"I think so, of course."
"I kept wondering why you suddenly made a decision so quickly."
"I asked the point, because the person above me, who is like you, is at a loss at the level of gods and demons." Li Wanye said.
Tang Xian knew that this was talking about Constantine. He frowned and said:
"What did Constantine say to you?"
"A lot, sometimes I want to know how many secrets you have learned in this world? I have always had a very strange feeling about that Son of God. He and you seem to be not completely opposite, which is completely different from the one I met earlier."
Tang Xian said:
"Constantine is my enemy, there is no point in saying that he has his choice, but I didn't expect that he did not stand the same side as you, but chose to open up his own path."
After all, Li Wanye didn't understand. He thought about the whole story that Constantine said that day, but it was actually in a fog. In the next time, Li Wanye told Tang Xian all the secrets he knew about and the management fortress over the years.
Some experiences are just means to deal with some people.
For example, the lord of a certain fortress has a kind and amiable appearance on the surface, but behind the scenes it is a veteran copper smelting family.
For example, any business tycoon has a clean business on the surface, but is doing all kinds of illegal smuggling in private.
These secrets are because Li Wanye believes that even if he goes to Baichuan City, the power of human beings will be reshuffled, and those who are capable will eventually return to the high position.
Controlling some handles and weaknesses can better help Li Xiaoyu control these people.
Tang Xian wrote down everything one by one. Whether it was about Constantine or the Mixin that Li Wanye knew about managing the fortress over the years.
This person is indeed a hero. He knows that his fate is very bad, but when he explains these things, he still looks calm and his smile from time to time makes people feel extremely steady.
Tang Xian also knew that this was Li Wanye's final contribution to the Li family.
After I go back, I have to make up a story.
Li Zheng, Li Xiaonian and Li Xiaoyu will know the truth and falsehood of this story. But they will pretend to believe it, and then destroy their relatives openly and feel sad for a long time in secret.
This is the rules of this world.
As time passed by little by little, Li Wanye finally explained everything.
He won't die soon, in fact, Tang Xian and Li Wanye themselves don't know what way they will die on which day.
After all, the battle between humans and the Order has not yet begun.
When Li Wanye finished everything, he said:
"You have to go back."
To be continued...
