Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 188 Different Paths, Corresponding to Different Futures
Duan Huaige took a deep breath at that moment and felt that there was something special about this Ah Tong.

One is to entrust an orphan to Yanjing City. It is not difficult, you just need to agree to it, so the reward is a pill recipe. Duan Huaige actually knows in his heart that this Yuandan has been recorded in the Book of Creation Pills. It is a kind of pill that can quickly restore spiritual power and recover from certain injuries. The effect is very good.

For individuals, the reward of this pill recipe is not that good. Because although the effect of this pill is good, it is not irreplaceable. For example, the foundation-building pill, the disaster-removing pill and various exclusive pills are suitable for individuals to master in exchange for benefits.

However, for Duan Huaige, who is about to take control of the Yan family, the value of this pill formula is immeasurable. He almost instantly thought of using it for the imperial court's military use. As long as he can get in touch with the imperial court's military use, the Yan family will have an extra gold mountain.

But the key point is... Mr. Yan is now in his prime, looks full of energy, and has no intention of dying at all. How can the plot cg of entrusting an orphan to someone else be triggered?

Perhaps the only option is to take the second path and help Mr. Yan live a second life!

But then the question arises again, how can Duan Huaige help Mr. Yan prolong his life and live a second life? I don't have any magic pills that will work as soon as I take them.

Moreover, with Mr. Yan’s status, it seems that he would not be short of rare treasures and miraculous medicines, right?
With this question in mind, Duan Huaige followed Mr. Yan and walked slowly in the courtyard. The old man walked slowly in front with his hands behind his back, while Duan Huaige followed behind with a heavy heart, not knowing how to start the conversation.

"Xiao Duan..."

"Grandpa, I'm here."

"Look at the fish in this pond. Who do you think is happier, the fish or us who feed the fish?"

Duan Huaige:?

Is this philosophy? Duan Huaige thought for a moment and tentatively answered, "Fish happy?"

"Fish will be trapped in this small world for their entire lives. What they can eat and how they can grow are all determined by the fish farmer. They are controlled by people in every way. Do you think they are happy?"

“That person is happy.”

"Once people raise these fish, they have ties to them. Today they worry about whether they don't feed enough, and tomorrow they worry about whether they will fight. It's exhausting. Do you think they are happy?"

"..."

"Old man, I'm a science student, you might as well explain it more clearly."

"You are a smart person, but you just don't want to think too much." Old Master Yan glanced at Duan Huaige who was pretending to be stupid and said faintly: "Those who work with their minds rule others, and those who work with their hands are ruled by others. The revival of China's spiritual energy can be said to be mighty and powerful. Everyone is in the torrent, and many people stand on the crest of the tide by relying on their own efforts, or luck."

"On the crest of the tide, there are endless views, endless temptations, and endless risks. It all depends on how you grasp them. After all, seeing the future is far less clear than seeing the past..."

Duan Huaige:?

Yan, Yan Plant…is that you?

"Grandpa, do you mean... to train me to join the department?"

"You are a talented kid. You will become a great man in the future." Old Master Yan said, "I heard that your performance in the secret realm was good. Did it attract the attention of the Ministry of War?"

"It's just a bit of luck. I'm sorry to make you laugh." Duan Huaige felt warm in his heart and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that you have a keen eye for talent and saw my potential at a glance..." Let me join the department! When my rank is higher than Xie Laodeng, I don't believe he dares to stop me from entering the Xie family!

"Oh, that's not the case." Old Master Yan smiled and said, "I just think that people who are so close to Qiuqiu and haven't been killed by him must have either very strong strength or very good luck."

"..."

Can Miss Yan Wang also serve as a reverse genius identifier?

"The Ministry of War has included you in that plan. You must be careful. Although that plan is a good thing for the entire China, it is very dangerous. You must pay attention to protecting your own safety."

Duan Huaige couldn't help but be moved when he heard this. He originally thought that an old man like Grandpa Yan, who had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, would require the younger generation to be brave enough to sacrifice and contribute, but he never thought that he would ask him to protect himself.

Perhaps a true hero would never let others sacrifice themselves.

Thinking of this, Duan Huaige asked cautiously: "Grandpa Yan, can I ask you something?"

"If you want to know Qiuqiu's birth date, ask her mother. I can't remember it."

"That's not it." Duan Huaige's face darkened, and he said helplessly: "I just want to ask... I just saw several uncles and other elders, and they seemed to have some spiritual energy fluctuations to a greater or lesser extent, but you only have some vigorous vitality, without too much spiritual energy revival..."

"Have you not started practicing?"

Mr. Yan nodded: "Yes."

This answer made Duan Huaige stand there for a while, and then he asked after a while: "Why?"

"Why? Of course I can't bear to part with it." Old Master Yan gave him a meaningful look and said, "Spiritual energy has just revived, so of course the best resources and the highest technology should be given to you young people. What use would it be to give them to us old men who are about to die?"

"We have been through too many days of being backward and beaten. We have suffered some hardships, and we don't want you to suffer them again."

Duan Huaige fell silent. He had to say that perhaps it was because of the presence of a group of people with ideals and beliefs like Mr. Yan that the spiritual energy revival could start such a pilot operation. Otherwise, if it were another place, once the spiritual energy revival began, there would be no doubt that the best resources and technology would be used by the chaebol to study the cultivation of life extension and immortality.

Not to mention the pilot, even if the cultivation method is mature, it may not be shared with ordinary people. Just like in the fairy tales, although the fairy civilization is extremely brilliant, there are still countless remote mountain villages where ordinary people live a life of hunger and hunger.

They controlled the inherited techniques and resources and established a huge sect, but this had nothing to do with the mortals who were starving to death in the small mountain villages.

No one is not afraid of death, and this is what makes some people's behavior valuable.

“But there are always some guys who can’t get enough of their good life and want to live a little longer…” Old Master Yan smiled and said, “You didn’t see the scene where Lao Qin and I slammed the table and scolded them so hard that they couldn’t raise their heads, hahahaha…”

"Now we are just trying to outlast each other." Old Master Yan said calmly, "If you win, we'll keep going. If you lose, it's hard to say what the future holds..."

Duan Huaige's heart skipped a beat, thinking, could it be that in the world line where the great devil Xiao Jiang turned evil, it was because of such a reason that the righteous path went astray, resulting in good prevailing over evil?
He remembered the words in the mission description that Old Man Yan was on the verge of death. He looked up at the old man and made a decision in his heart.
