When Liu Bei and others talked about the veteran's gambling problem, the veteran who attracted Liu Bei's attention was also found by his brothers, who were trying to think of ways to mobilize this guy to work.
"Brother Xiao, I heard someone said that you have been basking in the sun on the bridge recently. Let's go with my brothers to your home to earn some living expenses. As a woman, the old ones are not going, and the new ones are not coming." The person has not yet come to follow.
He was almost a beggar. In front of Empress Xiao, who was wearing a torn sweater, Jiang Chen greeted him from a distance.
"Oh, it's you." Empress Xiao turned over and raised her eyes, glanced at Jiang Chen, then turned around and shut herself up again, too lazy to talk to him, not wanting to fight at all, she just wanted to bask in the sun in the spring.
"Let's go, let's go, don't get into trouble, make some money with your brothers and live in style, and then we can find a widow later." Jiang Chen didn't care about Empress Xiao's long hair, which had not been taken care of for a long time, and her hair was already a little tangled and oily.
Woolen yarn, forcefully pulled the opponent up.
"When a real man is alive, it is inevitable that his wife will be unvirtuous and his son will be unfilial. If he marries again, he will have another life. Brother, there are always people who want your conditions. Let's go, drink some wine, and make some money with your brothers. In another place, you will be a good man again.
"Jiang Chen dragged Empress Xiao, and Empress Xiao followed him half-pushingly.
After all, my brother came from Jizhou, and it was somewhat unreasonable for him not to treat him to a meal. In the past, he would not have to eat and drink so hard, so under Jiang Chen's drag, he did not refuse, and at least he accompanied him to have a few meals.
When we arrived at the wine shop, there were already four or five acquaintances. The belly and mutton were cut on the table, and they were waiting for Empress Xiao. When Empress Xiao arrived, several brothers looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Although I heard that Brother Xiao suffered a bit of a blow when he came here, and his daughter followed his wife back to her parents' home, but with Brother Xiao's ability, how could it be like this? This is too ridiculous, how could Brother Xiao be like this?
I ate a hasty meal and drank some wine. The brothers were a bit tasteless, and I was too embarrassed to ask Empress Xiao what happened in the wine shop, so I could only eat and drink quickly, and dragged Empress Xiao to take a bath.
, after soaking, several brothers arranged their clothes, trimmed their hair, and trimmed their beards. After a while, the brave man in his early forties appeared again.
"It's normal now. Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you?" The table was served again, this time not in the private room of the restaurant, but at Empress Xiao's house. The meat, vegetables and steamed buns were all ordered from the restaurant.
, the wine is fine osmanthus rice wine, a group of people drank most of the jar before they started to ask this question.
Because when they retired, everyone returned to their hometowns, all over the world. Except for Jiang Chen, who happened to come here last year to visit Big Brother, he knew that Big Brother had divorced his sister-in-law, and then indulged himself in wine shops and gambling houses day by day. Others even
I didn't know this existed before I came here.
Immediately, a group of people began to curse at the wine table, saying that this is inevitable in the world. Brother Xiao, please don't feel too bad. You can't go to relax with your brothers and pass by Persia to catch Hu Ji, so that Brother Xiao can have fun.
Under the persuasion of this group of people, Xiao Cai roughly understood what happened and why a group of young brothers came to find him collectively. This was the time when he needed to take the lead again.
Jiang Chen said that he and his brothers would go to Brother Xiao's house to work around to earn living expenses. This was the job. The Xiao family in Lanling was given a bunch of jobs in Chang'an that required thugs. Jiang Chen was heartbroken because of the Jizhou case that year, so he did it.
I resigned after two years.
After going to sea, it is relatively easy to make money, but it is still more difficult to get rich suddenly. The pile of jobs that require thugs given by Lanling Xiao this time are jobs with good rewards, but this kind of job requires a reliable person.
Only people can take it.
This reliable person should preferably be strong, having taken over the private work of the Lanling Xiao family before, and preferably also have some military organizational skills. There are not many such people.
This is also why Xue Zhou and Zhang are always able to get private jobs from the Lanling Xiao family. Because they are really strong and tight-lipped, they turn a blind eye to some stuff that seems to be black material at first glance, and because they are old yellow turbans.
Have sufficient military organizational capabilities.
It's just that since both Xue Zhou and Zhang met a boundary-breaking orc who escaped from Lanling Xiao's laboratory, they had a correct understanding of the danger and suddenness of this job.
It's not that he can't beat Breaking the Boundary. If Wang Yue doesn't run away in a place like Laoshu Castle, a group of them can still kill him if they surround him, but that will only happen if his subordinates are elite enough. What do you think of the guards of the Lanling Xiao family?
It really doesn't work. It feels like everyone is getting money to eat, not to work for money.
Empress Xiao had also taken over the private affairs of the Lanling Xiao family before, and even met with Xue Zhou and the others. She was also highly regarded by the Lanling Xiao family, and even the Lanling Xiao family wanted to absorb Empress Xiao. After all,
It is possible to say that they have the same surname and were in the same family five hundred years ago.
Large aristocratic families want to have some face, but mid-range families such as the Lanling Xiao family don't pay so much attention to face. The veterans of the sixth level of smelting are worth the price, not to mention that they can carry out military command on a certain scale.
Damn it, such a high-quality veteran with the surname Xiao must be a member of our family who was lost in the past.
If Empress Xiao's own family hadn't known about his family affairs, he would have been absorbed by the Lanling Xiao family after he showed his ability to organize rebels.
"So, you want me to take you to Africa to catch some experimental animals for the Lanling Xiao family?" Empress Xiao roughly understood the purpose of this group of people and could understand their thoughts.
After all, the things Xiao did abroad were really not easy for normal people to see. They were too evil and sinister. Veterans with a strong sense of justice might conflict with Xiao after reading them, or even report them to the country.
Although he was not afraid of being reported if he dared to do this, he was abroad and did not conduct experiments on the people of the Han Dynasty. They were all experimental animals, highly anthropomorphic at best. Chen Xi didn't want to care about it, and he couldn't care about it. He just didn't listen or ask.
But there are too many reports, and the impact is not good. In fact, there are too many rumors, and it has become more difficult for the Lanling Xiao Family to recruit people!
The number of people recruited these days is basically linked to the development speed of the family fiefdom. When fewer people are recruited, the development of the fiefdom will slow down. Therefore, when rumors that a certain family is engaged in evil plans become widely circulated, the family's
There are bound to be problems with development.
Therefore, as the Lanling Xiao family who really engages in evil plans, they need someone of their own who is strict in speech and strong in ability.
This is why when the Lanling Xiao family recruits people, they need to have previous experience in participating in tasks, because this means that this person has a relatively high ability to accept some outrageous experiments and will not have the so-called sense of justice and overthrow their own family.
This situation.
There have been cases in the past where some young people with a strong sense of justice accepted the employment of the Lanling Xiao family. However, because they saw some evil experiments that were not in line with human concepts, they fell out with the Xiao family in anger, and even cooperated with the experimental equipment to create
Xiao's rebellion was too hurtful.
To this day, the Lanling Xiao Family does not recruit young guys who are just starting out, such as Wang Ke, a guy in his thirties with a righteous heart, unless there is a big boss from Party B who has cooperated with the Lanling Xiao Family many times.
Please help me, otherwise I'll get lost as far as I can.
The insiders combined the experimental equipment, the blasting laboratory, and the Xiao family were fooled. The high salary I offered you was to capture the experimental animals after they escaped, so as to prevent the experimental animals from rebelling. In the end, you followed the experimental animals to fuck me?
This is also the reason why Jiang Chen and others came to see Empress Xiao. Empress Xiao has cooperated with the Xiao family of Lanling many times. With Empress Xiao leading the team, on the one hand, the salary can be much higher, and on the other hand, the Xiao family's ideological censorship
It could also be less.
In fact, if Empress Xiao went there on her own, there would be no such thing as censorship. She would only need to receive a sum of money every once in a while to relax, and then come back and stick to her post.
This is Lanling Xiao's reward for outstanding collaborators. It is actually the way Lanling Xiao manages its own researchers. After all, doing too many such evil experiments will indeed distort human thoughts and beliefs.
However, without such experiments, certain defects would be difficult to verify, so Lanling Xiao could only verify it on as many mammals as possible, and then verify it on humans after repeated verification.
Generally speaking, when the link is advanced to the point where the human body is required for verification, it will be stopped first, and a large number of things that need to be verified will be verified together. This can be regarded as maximizing the use of resources.
But here is the disadvantage. When large-scale verification is carried out, Xiao has to call in guards from the outside. After all, the experimental subjects will resist, and certain verifications will greatly increase the strength of the experimental subjects in a short period of time.
Even if precautions are taken in advance, for safety reasons, it is still necessary to increase personnel investment to avoid accidents.
The experimental methods these days are a bit too abstract. Even though the Xiao family's laboratory has been jointly produced by major aristocratic families to produce top-notch works, in the past few years, laboratory regulations have been added every year.
Empress Xiao held a piece of pig liver with a thoughtful look on her face, while the others saw Empress Xiao's expression and felt a little happy in their hearts. As long as Empress Xiao has the intention to leave here and stop trying to get into trouble, everything will be easy to solve later.
Just like Jiang Chen said before, when a real man is alive, it is inevitable that his wife will be unkind and his son will be unfilial, but life will still go on. With Empress Xiao's ability, as long as she doesn't get into trouble on her own, where can she get away with?
This is the sixth level of smelting. With the changes in the sky and the curse of world consciousness, it is a question whether there are still two hundred six-level smelting in the entire Central Plains. If we really count the levels, these are characters that are almost as rare as the internal energy separation.
"It's not impossible, but you have to accompany me to meet someone." Empress Xiao put down her chopsticks, rubbed her somewhat yellow face, and said seriously, with the same expression as if she needed to make a break with her past.
"That's right, Brother Xiao, drink and drink. Today, a drunkenness will relieve a thousand worries. Tomorrow we will go see the person you mentioned and have a good rest. Brothers are not in a hurry for such a short time." Jiang Chen hurriedly stepped aside.
He brought the wine to Empress Xiao and said.
"Drink, drink, drink." A few people nearby also said, they also felt that it was pointless to continue to hang around in Wugong County with Queen Xiao's situation. His wife and children had run away, and it was pointless to stay in such a sad place. Brother Xiao
With this ability, if you find another good guy in another place, ask him if he is a widower, who the hell knows how to dig deep! It's not normal for widowers to be here these days.
Based on ability alone, with Brother Xiao's ability, no family can deceive a concubine. This guy can fight and lead troops. Every major family needs a concubine who can win over such a person?
If you have eyes that don’t recognize gold and jade, just run away and look for something better.
A group of people ate and drank until midnight, finding a spot anywhere in Empress Xiao's house. No matter how miserable Empress Xiao was, would the house with the eleventh-level title still have no place to live?
Unless a gambling house has a backend of Yuan Shu's level, it is impossible to accept such a house as a national reward.
What's more, the gambling house dared to lend money to Empress Xiao because she knew that Empress Xiao could pay it back. This man was also a decent man. He followed Lao Liu to the Ganges River and came back to find that his wife had been slept with by a former friend.
The child is not your own yet.
Empress Xiao exploded directly, and almost chopped her wife and her former friend to death on the spot. Although in ancient times, this kind of hacking was just hacking to death, but Empress Xiao finally admitted it, gave the other party a sword, and then broke off the grudge.
The next day I wrote a divorce letter and sent my wife back to her parents' home.
After that, Empress Xiao was like a wandering spirit, wandering around gambling houses and wine shops, losing everything.
Empress Xiao used to gamble, but in the past it was just for fun, but now she is completely indulging herself. It is not so much about gambling, but to make herself forget those things.
After gambling too much, I became a little addicted, but it was really hard to say how happy it was, because even if I won, it would not be able to make Empress Xiao, who was heavy-hearted, happy.
This is also the reason why Empress Xiao didn't want to talk when she saw Liu Bei. Although the matter had already happened before going to the Ganges River, going to the Ganges River revealed the matter, which made Empress Xiao somewhat confused when she saw Liu Bei.
gloomy.
Some even didn't want to talk to Liu Bei, just out of rationality. When Liu Bei asked him what was wrong, he slightly modified the cause and effect, making Liu Bei think that he had turned into a gambler and sold his son and daughter. In fact, it was not the case, but that his family had exploded.
This is also the reason why Liu Bei went to the gambling house and found that there were no obvious violations in the gambling house in Wugong County. In fact, the gambling house did nothing. Even after Xiao Duwei lost too much, he was a little afraid to persuade Empress Xiao.
Stop playing.
After all, there is no shortage of gamblers like this. Those who open regular gambling houses just want to make some money, and they never think about ruining the families around them. Especially for such a fairy veteran, if you really take action, you will die, right?
I don’t know the level of Liu Bei and Chen Xi, but there are rumors that the gambling house in Nanyang last year caused a veteran to get angry and killed him because of gambling money, losses, and debt pressing.
Seven people died and were injured, just because there were veterans on the scene who helped block the attack, otherwise more people would die.
This news is said to be a rumor, but basically everyone who runs a gambling house has something to do with it. The accuracy of this kind of gossip is still very high. In addition, this year in Jizhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou, there have been incidents of stabbing people in gambling houses.
It is rumored that the formal gambling houses on Guanzhong Road have naturally strengthened supervision.
There was just a double-smelted gambling dog in Nanyang who went crazy. Four people died and seven were injured. If Empress Xiao lost badly in the gambling house, the gambling house would probably be wiped out.
This is not a joke. Wugong County, as a place close to Chang'an like Guanzhong Road, can be regarded as rich in martial arts. But except for Empress Xiao, a fake local who moved from other places for the Sixth Level Smelting, you are the second Sixth Level Smelter in the company.
Can't find any resmelting.
Normally, the veterans of the Sixth Level Smelting are either big bosses on the front line or captains in the county. Let alone one in a county, normally speaking, one in a county is considered too many.
After allocating them to the front line, several important capitals, counties and cities will be divided in turn. The aristocratic families will take away a few more to see how many are left. As for the Sixth Level Smelting of Empress Xiao, everyone here knows about it.
A well-known local figure opened their eyes to others in order to let them understand what extraordinary species are.
Spiral force field, stance protection, mind-body conversion, self-adaptation, airflow control, instant power explosion, six smeltings. At the peak last year, he was even preparing to ascend to the seventh level like Zhao Zhen, but then he was slapped by God and turned back.
Sixth level.
Although these talents are so messed up that they can't even be sorted out in a coherent context, it's hard to tell which talent is the main body. But in terms of combat effectiveness, they are really a mess of strength and a mess of battlefield response capabilities.
But generally speaking, when you reach the sixth level of smelting, you have no shortcomings and you can only fight to the death. At this level, no one cares about extreme power anymore.
Because there is no need, generally unless you are very unlucky and are surrounded by the immortal veteran and a group of young men from the opposite side, there will be no life safety issues.
The problem is that, let alone the immortal veteran himself, even the generals with inner energy separated from the body will be killed if they are surrounded by the immortal veterans and their younger brothers. Most of the internal energy separated warriors who are considered to be the backbone level on the battlefield,
Take Li Tiao as an example, even if he faced five or six immortal veterans at the same time, he would be beaten to death.
This is Li Tiao, a top-notch warrior who is usually used as a fierce general. If he is surrounded by five or six immortal veterans under the clouds, he will die.
But if you think about it, there are less than 200 immortals with the sixth level of smelting, and there are only about a hundred generals with inner energy separated from the body, including those warriors who do not lead the army. The two sides are basically at the same level of powerhouses.
It's just that the inner energy is more ostentatious outside the body, and the veteran is more low-key. To be honest, the levels of both sides are actually the same level. There is a gap, but the gap is not big.
Although there is no such recognition at the social level, the veterans of the Sixth Level Smelting are still recognized by ordinary people as being nearly as powerful as ordinary people.
Therefore, serious gambling houses are actually quite afraid that people like Empress Xiao will lose their mentality in a hurry, because if such a godly man directly attacks the Nanyang old man who is rumored to be angry, it is not a joke that the gambling house will wipe out the whole family on the spot, you
Didn't even have to run.
What does it mean for extraordinary humans to coexist with humans? This is it.
It's just that the mentality of an extraordinary human being is still that of a social person, and it's not so outrageous as the whole "I don't eat beef" incident.
