It seems that Didan is too rash, but in fact he also has his own ideas.【】
Although he is a resident of the slums, Didan also has some discernment. Although the man in front of him is not much older than himself, one thing is certain. That is, as long as this man is willing, he can do anything with just one finger.
Solve yourself.
More importantly, Didan knew his identity.
If you say he is some kind of rich and powerful young man, it can be interpreted as coveting power. But Didan understands that he and his companions are all paupers who have nothing at all, and there is nothing worth coveting.
The only thing he has is his own life. But if this person wants his own life, is it necessary to do this? In this world where strength is respected, I believe that as long as this person is willing, even all the children in the slums will be killed.
Take them all away, and no one will come out and say a word.
Of course, the premise is that this person's strength has reached the point where everyone in Tras City is afraid.
Di Dan was thinking, but Li Yang was also thinking. And soon, through Di Dan's various bachelor behaviors, he also discovered what Di Dan was thinking.
"Sure enough, he is a smart child." Li Yang sighed secretly again, but he was also a little curious about what the request of this child named Didan led him to turn left and right.
Didan, this is the name the child just told Li Yang.
The two of them walked for a short time, but they had already passed through the slum streets and arrived at a wasteland on the outskirts of the city.
"This is where we live." Without waiting for Li Yang to ask, Di Dan explained for Li Yang: "Because we are all a group of orphans, even slums are inaccessible to us. If we want to find a place to live, we
We can only come to this desolate and barren wasteland that no one wants to come to."
Seeing this place located in the corner of Tras City, Didan smiled softly and said in a bitter voice: "Anyway, we, a group of orphans, have nothing to covet. Even in this desolate area, it is very safe."
"It's very safe." Listening to Di Dan's words, Li Yang couldn't help but feel sad. Others didn't understand their pain, but Li Yang, who had been an orphan, understood it very well. There was nothing that could be coveted, but it also represented theirs.
Life is difficult. And, do they really have nothing that others covet?
Body, life, aren't these things coveted by many people?
The extremely evil professions of slave traders will never disappear in any world.
"I understand." Li Yang gently patted Didan's shoulder and sighed softly.
It was just two words, but when Didan turned back to Li Yang's eyes, his shoulders suddenly trembled and he understood something.
Nodding, Di Dan seemed to have more trust in this person in his heart.
After walking for a while, Li Yang could already see a bunch of dilapidated buildings in the distance.
"This is our home." With a relaxed smile on his face, Di Dan quickly trotted forward. It seemed that what he saw was not a dilapidated building, but a paradise. Here, he could feel
to something called happiness.
Poor people are always easily satisfied. But by this scene, Li Yang's heart felt even more sour, and his eyes had heated up several times.
"Haha" he smiled bitterly, and Li Yang also raised his feet and followed Di Dan's footsteps, heading towards Di Dan's home.
"Sister Didan"
"Didan, you are back"
"How was it? Did you gain anything today?"
Before he even got close, Li Yang had already heard the orphans' conversation with his sharp hearing. However, there seemed to be information in it that he hadn't noticed?
Didan turned out to be a little girl?
Well, Li Yang never noticed it. In other words, Li Yang never thought about it at all.
It is hard to imagine that a girl can show such tenacity and intelligence as Li Yang. But on the other hand, it also shows that this girl's daily life is definitely difficult to imagine. What is going to happen?
Only through such suffering can a little girl who was supposed to be elegant and cute turn into such a nimble, cunning, smart and decisive person?
Li Yang couldn't imagine it
"Sister Didan, who is this big brother?"
"Didan?"
"Sir, what are you doing here?"
When Li Yang approached, a group of orphans finally noticed this young man who was dressed many times better than them, but each behaved differently.
The younger ones hugged Di Dan's calf and hid behind Di Dan. They only dared to cautiously poke their heads out and ask secretly. The older ones also had several attitudes. They were either full of hostility or full of temptation.
, or watch carefully.
"They are all geniuses polished by God."
In my mind, Li Zhan's voice sounded, a little happy, but mostly filled with emotion.
After investigation, it was found that these children had very good talents, and some of them could even be compared with Didan.
But when he thought about it carefully, Li Zhan was not very surprised.
Why? Because of their living environment.
Think about it, a group of children whose average age is not even ten years old have to accept a life that even some adults cannot live. In such a life, those who are not physically strong enough and mentally flexible enough will naturally be gradually eliminated.
The only ones left will naturally be children with good talents, flexible minds and mature minds.
Moreover, judging from the size of the building complex and the number of orphans, a large part of the credit should be attributed to Didan and the few boys with her talent. You must know that young orphans like Li Zhan are not uncommon.
Yes, but there are very few people like them who can unite their partners and achieve certain protection. Such achievements are even more rare than those of so-called geniuses.
"His name is Li Yang, and he is our long-term meal ticket for the future." Didan smiled at everyone, turned to Li Yang and said, "My condition is that you help take care of our orphans. Don't worry, they will also
You are all just like me, you have no parents, so you don’t need to worry about them bringing you other troubles.”
"Moreover, many of us have a certain amount of labor and can do some common household chores ourselves."
The implication is that Di Dan needs Li Yang to help them so that they have the most basic foundation for survival.
"Okay." With a faint smile, Li Yang agreed without any hesitation.
Even if Didan didn't put forward this condition, according to Li Yang's temperament, he would agree. If this kind of thing doesn't come, it's fine. When it comes, naturally you can't ignore it. Otherwise, it will not only be an uneasy conscience, but also a question about one's own past.
kind of negation.
On the other hand, Di Dan's friends were a little surprised after hearing Li Yang's answer, and some of them even came over with hostile faces.
"You guy, why do you make such a promise?" After Li Yang's clothes were not outstanding compared to ordinary people, a seven or eight-year-old child who obviously knew some social relations said with a dissatisfied tone.
"Kid!" Didan shouted in a somewhat cold tone, as if she was blaming the boy. After all, she is a girl. In Didan, if people treat you well, you should repay them. How can you still be hostile to others?
"With my sufficient financial connections, I can provide you with the most basic life, and I can also provide you with opportunities for education and learning." Li Yang replied with a smile, not caring about the child's attitude at all.
"Why?" Kid looked at Didan with an angry face and asked again.
"Not bad boy." Li Yang nodded secretly in his heart and replied again: "Of course I also have requests."
Holding out two fingers, Li Yang said: "Train."
"As long as you accept my help, in the future, I ask you to train as I say." Li Yang said: "As long as you can meet my requirements, not only supplies, I will also pay you salaries."
"You want us to be your thugs?" Kidd raised his eyebrows.
"Not bad." Li Yang admitted frankly.
"Okay, but" pointing to the orphans behind him, Kidd said, "I need their permission."
"Okay." Li Yang continued to smile and nodded as if he had no temper at all.
As Kidd and Didan walked toward the crowd and began to explain, Li Yang's eyes also began to scan quietly.
Li Yang noticed that after hearing Kidd's words, except for some of the younger ones, the others' expressions did not change at all, which made the smile on Li Yang's lips even stronger.
After a while, Kidd, Didan, and a few talented children that Li Zhan pointed out came over.
"We need you to show some sincerity." Kidd, the leader who is neither humble nor arrogant, said. It seems that although their life is difficult, it has not weakened their will in the slightest. They still maintain the instinct of confrontation and struggle.
"Okay!" Li Yang's smile became even stronger. He made a lot of money this time!
Based on the population base of the Aiur continent, although there are not many geniuses, there are still many, but why are there still so few people who can reach the strong level? It is because genius often also represents the comfort of life. There is no competition, no life and death for genius.
, he can only be regarded as a pseudo-genius.
On the contrary, although these orphans live at the lowest level, they all have unyielding looks in their eyes. Even if many of their qualifications are not above average, with this unyielding spirit, it is definitely only a matter of time before they become the strongest.
To reach the top level, talent is just a condition, the main condition is the heart of constant struggle!
"As for my sincerity." Li Yang smiled, and looked behind him as the smoke and dust of music spread towards him, "I will show it to you immediately."
Seeing Li Yang's gaze and performance, several smart-minded children immediately followed Li Yang's gaze and looked far into the distance.
Immediately, their eyes became solemn, and Di Dan's face became a little pale.
"Oops, it turned out to be those nasty guys." Kidd spat on the ground fiercely, and immediately ordered the people next to him: "Quick, take the others and hide."
"Yes" they responded, and several people immediately ran away and started to greet others. Even though Kidd and the others looked very solemn, the orphans still behaved in such an orderly manner, which made Li Yang's eyes light up.
"These people are the subordinates of a noble named Wan Chen." Kidd took the initiative to explain: "Although this is the edge of Tras City, mosquito legs are still meat no matter how small they are. Just a few months ago, that Wan Chen
Chen has his eye on this position."
"Of course, we will not hand over this place to them so easily, so we have fought many times." Although it was an understatement, Li Yang could tell from Kidd's slightly proud eyes that these many
This confrontation must have been very difficult. But they achieved a temporary victory in this difficult confrontation.
The reason why it is temporary is because Li Yang understands that with the help of powerful little guys like Kidd, it is impossible to take this land as their own. Don't say that anyone wants it, even if no one wants this land
There is no possibility for them to occupy the wasteland they want. The most they can do is to obtain temporary residence rights under the eyes of all the upper-class people.
After the introduction, Kidd looked at Li Yang, his eyes bright and unblinking, his meaning was very obvious. You said you want to help us solve the problem and show your sincerity, so please.
"Little Guitou" scratched his head very eloquently. Li Yang said something to this over-mature boy, "It's not a good thing to be too smart."
"You just know, how much do you think I'll suffer when I'm with you?" Li Zhan complained in time.
"Ahem, okay, I'll help you solve the problem." Li Yang stepped back, Kidd and the others had already evacuated the orphans. He immediately looked at Li Zhan and rushed towards Wan Chen's men.
After a while, what was originally just a faint smoke and dust has turned into a smog filled city, and Wan Chen's men and horses have also arrived nearby.
"It's these poor boys again, so unlucky." Not far away, those people could already reach Li Yang who was blocking the road. A big man with a dark face, thick eyebrows and big eyes spat directly and began to curse.
It was obvious that this big man had suffered some losses at the hands of Kidd and the others before.
"Just drive him away. Don't make yourself look like an idiot with their little tricks." A young man with a few strands of beard and a fair complexion glanced at Li Yang and said calmly.
"It's Butler Cao." The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, the big man's eyes became sinister, and the right hand that originally held the riding crop tightened even more.
"Go away!"
With his right hand tense, the big man swung his whip fiercely at Li Yang. On the surface, he seemed to want to pull the person who was blocking his way away, but in fact, if an ordinary person was whipped, he would definitely be killed on the spot or seriously injured.
