Chapter 352 The Land of Etiquette
Chapter 352 The Land of Etiquette
Bai Linglong felt inferior for the first time in her life when her guilty conscience was touched, and she lowered her head and stammered.
"White...silver."
"Ah? Only silver?"
There was a hint of disappointment in the boy's words that blurted out subconsciously.
Bai Linglong's proud self-esteem seemed to be hit by a sledgehammer, splitting into spider-web-like cracks, and her cheeks and ears were instantly covered in blood.
Do you think everyone is a monster like you?!
It only takes a few months to achieve what others have achieved in decades or even hundreds of years?!
My progress is very fast among the gods!
Why should I be humiliated by you?!
The girl clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh. Her whole body was trembling, with countless words tumbling in her heart.
Seeing the girl's eyes red and tears gathering in them, Zhu Haomiao realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed his words.
"Oh my, that's amazing! You've already jumped three grades in less than a year. You're truly a genius!"
Hearing the boy's hypocritical words, Bai Linglong wiped her eyes fiercely, stared at him with red eyes, and faced her "inner demon" head-on with a desperate attitude.
"What about you? What's your current energy level?!"
"Uh... just a little bit stronger than you..."
"A little bit? How much stronger is it?"
"Just... just the gold level, a little bit stronger, not much, really! Believe me!"
Under normal circumstances...
Zhu Haomiao added silently in his heart and looked at Bai Linglong with sincere eyes, his pupils full of openness.
Looking at the young man's clear and honest eyes, Bai Linglong blinked and frowned in doubt.
"But I heard from Brother Xu that you already have a fighting power that surpasses ordinary hegemons."
Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao angrily rebuked: "Huai Xu's words are just for fun, he knows nothing about hegemony!"
Huai Xu: “???!!”
Not far away, a young man who was about to report on his work stood there in a daze, then quietly stepped aside and began to doubt his life.
The commander must have a point when he says that...
Do I really not understand hegemony?
But I am the hegemon!
Looking at the purple-gold [Dragon Emblem] on his chest, Huaixu blinked in confusion.
On the other side, after being fooled by Zhu Haomiao, Bai Linglong regained her confidence and pursed her lips slightly.
“I told you, we are both God’s destiny, how could the gap between us be so huge…”
Hearing the girl's mumbling, Zhu Haomiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that his most reliable tool would never recover from this.
"Oh, yes, yes! The gap between us is actually not that big. As long as you practice hard, sooner or later... sooner or later... Emmm..."
Halfway through his mindless comedy, Zhu Haomiao suddenly realized that he couldn't just lie, and he was immediately embarrassed.
"Sooner or later what? Can I catch up with you?"
Faced with the girl's expectant question, Zhu Haomiao wrinkled his features, and after a long silence, he patted her shoulder.
"Sooner or later, he will become a pillar of the country."
"........."
Noticing that the young man had inexplicably changed the subject, Bai Linglong instantly realized something and glared at him fiercely.
"After all this time, I still can't catch up with you, right?"
"Well... I think it's easier to become a pillar of the country..."
"I am a pillar, what are you?"
"I can tear down beams in other countries."
"........."
Looking at the young man talking nonsense in a serious manner, Bai Linglong couldn't help but pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
But after Zhu Haomiao's jokes, the demon in the girl's heart that was causing her nightmares seemed to slowly break, and the shadow of terror that had been hanging over her head gradually dissipated. Yes... We are partners...
Who is afraid of their own people being too strong...
Letting go of her habitual competitive spirit and desire to win, Bai Linglong adjusted her mindset and immediately felt relaxed.
On the other side, Zhu Haomiao noticed the girl's mood change and struck while the iron was hot.
"If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me directly. I will definitely provide you with the best environment for growth."
"By the way, this is the extraordinary delicacy I made. It can provide you with a huge amount of spiritual nutrition..."
Zhu Haomiao took out portions of glowing delicacies from his leather bag and stuffed them into Bai Linglong's hands, talking to her with concern like an old mother.
Feeling that the other person was sincerely doing good for her, Bai Linglong inexplicably felt a little ashamed and lowered her head with a red face.
"I will work hard to practice."
"Well, I believe you."
Patting Bai Linglong on the shoulder again, Zhu Haomiao looked at her encouragingly.
Come on, girl!
Silver is really useless!
Bai Linglong's fighting spirit was rekindled, and Zhu Haomiao found Huaixu scratching his head frantically, his eyes full of surprise.
"what happened to you?"
"Uh, nothing, Commander. I just happened to have something to report to you."
Huaixu calmly changed the subject and began to report on his work.
"You mean, more and more pioneers from other countries are entering Dazhen?"
"Yes, their traces have been found in every province. They specifically attack people with great luck and dig up graves everywhere!"
When this matter was mentioned, Huaixu frowned angrily.
"It's fine if they dig up graves randomly, but the problem is that they dug out some zongzi that they couldn't handle. Not only did they kill all of them, but they also caused the extinction of people and animals in the area for dozens of miles..."
Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao was filled with questions.
"Why are they digging graves?"
"Looking for [real objects], the probability of finding [real objects] that can be brought into the tombs by ancient dignitaries is very high, so these stray dogs are also called ghouls!"
"Uh... don't call them stray dogs. It will have a bad influence if it gets out. We are a country of etiquette."
Not all foreign pioneering teams are wanted criminals, many of them are legal and regular teams. As long as they do not attack the [Yanhuang Arsenal], they can freely "mine" in places that are not marked with exclusive marks.
Of course, the premise is that you don't overdo it.
If it is the kind of destructive and violent "mining" that causes the wrath of heaven and people, the local adventers will always find a reason to kill you!
Finally, only after the Qing Dynasty was branded with the [Imperial Seal] like in the First Heaven, this territory became a virtual extension of the real territory and was upgraded to an "exclusive economic zone", and only then would invaders from other countries be unable to exploit it.
Therefore, digging graves is actually a good choice. Although it is immoral, it will not particularly irritate the local descenders. At most, they will dig out some strange things and kill themselves.
Suddenly, Zhu Haomiao inexplicably thought of the treasure hunting, tomb-robbing and adventure culture that is very popular in the West, as well as the various novels, movies, games, etc. derived from it, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Art comes from life...
On the other side, facing Zhu Haomiao's warning, Huaixu hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously.
"What if they dig up some important [real things]?"
"for example?"
"Something like the real destiny..."
Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao's eyes narrowed and he frowned.
"We are a nation of etiquette, and we hate digging up people's ancestral graves the most. This is a way to death, and there will be no mercy!"
I worked overtime today, so the update is a little late, sorry.
