Urban Sims

Chapter 451 Times have changed
capital city.

A city that has been established for less than five years.

This is the political center of Wancheng Kingdom, with an important position, so it has developed extremely rapidly. In just five years, it has become a large city with a population of nearly one million.

In addition, because it is located at the intersection of multiple transportation routes, the economic development is also extremely prosperous.

The couple Yingshiyu and Meiqianhong, who were riding a 20-seat medium-sized luxury high-speed turbojet "passenger plane", looked at the city below with amazement in their eyes as they gradually descended.

"When I came here last time, I still thought it was small and broken. I haven't seen it for a few years, but it has changed."

Mei Qianhong sighed.

Ying Shiyu glanced at several Lingyuan battleships floating above the city, changed course, controlled the plane to land, aimed at the airport runway in the north of the city, and landed slowly.

……

Egret Palace.

Zhou Ming, who was dealing with government affairs in the office, put down his pen and smiled slightly after hearing the secretary report that his parents had arrived.

"They are here."

"Hey, a person who has lived for nearly four hundred years is still like a child."

Zhou Ming shook his head, put down his official duties, and went to greet him.

……

in the living room.

"Grandfather, grandma!" shouted the grandchildren.

"Hello great-grandfather, great-grandmother!" the great-grandchildren also shouted obediently.

"Hi, grandchildren, yes!"

Mei Qianhong was all smiles, holding a three-year-old great-grandson in her hands, and kissed him again and again, with a loving expression on her face, but also very complaining in her heart, she hadn't seen her for three years, the great-grandson and great-granddaughter have grown up so much, the number Three or four more were added, not to mention that they all missed their births, and the relationship with the original grandchildren has also become a little rusty.

"It's all your fault for being stubborn." Mei Qianhong glared at Ying Shiyu, who was not far away, and he pulled his grandson Zhang Jin aside, smiling brightly, talking non-stop, saying some seductive words.

Zhang Jin shrugged his head, with a reluctant expression on his face.

"Mother, you are here." Zhou Ming walked into the living room, seeing the happy scene of his parents and his children and grandchildren, smiled slightly, and came over to say hello.

"son……"

Mei Qianhong turned her head to look, her face froze for a moment, her vocal cords choked up.

Walking up to his son, he stretched out his hand to touch his face twice, and two tears rolled down: "Son, you are old, you are older than before, and your hair is white, much more than last time."

At this time, Zhou Ming was nearly sixty years old, but due to the excessive work in the past few years, he was much older than before.

There are more wrinkles on the face.

The temples are grizzled, and white hair accounts for one-third.

Compared with three years ago, almost two people were sentenced.

Thinking of her son's status as a mortal, his stagnant cultivation, and his lifespan of not more than a hundred years, he might die by himself first, Mei Qianhong felt heartbroken and blamed herself very much.

The greatest regret in life is parting from life to death. Immortals have a long lifespan and forget their feelings and desires, but it doesn't mean that they really have no feelings at all.

Faced with the possibility of her closest loved one leaving, and the possibility of a black-haired person giving away a white-haired person, Mei Qianhong suddenly felt a little panic in her heart.

And extremely reluctant.

He is even trying to find a way to prolong his son's life.

"It's okay, mother, don't cry, my body is still strong."

Zhou Ming gave her a comforting smile, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and wiped the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Ying Shiyu was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to the side again.

……

Several days passed in a row.

Surrounded by their children and grandchildren, the Yingshiyu couple enjoyed a lot of family happiness, and the complaints and estrangement in their hearts basically disappeared.

Especially Ying Shiyu, at the dinner table, from being cold and silent, to speaking, and then answering Zhou Ming's words, and giving him a few words, it can be seen that his mouth is still stubborn, but his attitude has changed. Visibly softened.

So Zhou Ming called him to the study on purpose this day, and chatted with him alone for a while.

"Boy, why are you looking for me? If you have anything to say, tell me, I have other things."

Ying Shiyu said with her hands behind her back and her neck raised.

"Of course it's about the Melting Spirit Pill. I can sell this kind of pill to your Feiying Sect in batches." Zhou Ming said with a smile.

"Oh~"

Ying Shiyu's heart moved, this kid let go so easily and offered to sell him the magic pill?Two days ago, he was still thinking about how to talk to him.

"Uh, how to sell it, how many spirit coins?"

Based on the uninterrupted consumption of one pill per day by those overseas students, the price of Rong Ling Pill should not be very expensive.

But it won't be cheap either. After all, in his eyes, the Spiritual Melting Pill is amazingly effective.

"Not expensive, 5000 spirit coins per bottle, 100 pills per bottle." Zhou Ming said.

"so cheap?"

Yingshiyu was taken aback, it was too cheap, 360 spirit coins per bottle, 2 pills per bottle, [-] days a year, the consumption did not exceed four bottles, and the total cost did not exceed [-] spirit coins.

As for the [-] spirit coins, the disciples of the Feiying Sect could earn them in a month by going down the mountain to work, or serving on the Lingyuan battleship.

What's more, as the "protection sect" of the Wancheng Kingdom, Feiyun Mountain enjoys an annual allocation of 5000 million spiritual coins from the Ministry of Finance of the Wancheng Kingdom, which is quite a lot... This is why Ying Shiyu has repeatedly thought about expelling the students of the study abroad school. The reason for not doing that in the end.

After offending Wancheng Kingdom to death, Feiyunshan immediately entered the primitive society.

"Yes." Zhou Ming nodded, "Not only is it cheap, but there is no limit to the quantity you can buy, you can buy as much as you want."

what?
You can buy as much as you want, are you wholesale jelly beans?

Ying Shiyu was astonished in her heart, but a word came from her ear:
"However, Rong Ling Pill can be sold to you, but you have to promise me a condition. If you can't agree to this condition, Rong Ling Pill will not be sold to you."

condition?

There are still conditions?

Ying Shiyu frowned, and said: "What conditions, you can tell me."

"To rectify Feiyun Mountain, clean up a group of bad apples in the Feiying Sect who despise the law of the country and commit crimes repeatedly, and completely reverse the evil spirits in the Feiying Sect."

Zhou Ming said, facing the bookshelf, slowly pulled out a thick book.

"You bastard! My Feiying Sect is pure and pure from top to bottom, where is the black sheep? Where is the evil spirit? You are an outsider, what right do you have to meddle in our Feiying Sect's internal affairs?"

Ying Shiyu was furious, looking at the brat's back, she even wanted to slap him to death.

"There is no real evidence, and I am full to intervene in your Feiying Sect's affairs? Every case in this investigation file is true. You can see for yourself. How many good things have your precious disciples done these years?"

Zhou Ming threw the file in Ying Shiyu's hands expressionlessly.

After taking the file and flipping through a few pages at random, all the words "stealing", "murder", "replenishing" and so on, as well as the names of many very familiar personal disciples, Ying Shiyu couldn't believe it, and couldn't help it. Accepted, tore the file to shreds, and shouted: "Fake, made up, all made up! How can my disciples of Yingshiyu be so unscrupulous? Most of them practice in peace in the cave, so how can they be so shameless?" So much effort, to go to the mortal world and do so many bad things?"

He pointed at Zhou Ming and said, "Enough is enough, you are enough! If you don't want to sell the magic pill, just say it, there is no need to frame my disciples!"

"I'm free to frame them!"

Zhou Ming said coldly: "If you don't believe me, my special public security bureau can bring witnesses and victims here for your questioning. You can also call your disciples here and confront them face to face to see if they are innocent?"

"Let me tell you, what is recorded in that file is only a small number of cases they committed, and there may be many more cases that have not been recorded!"

Ying Shiyu covered her ears, and walked straight out the door, "I won't listen, and I won't buy the Rong Ling Pill, so don't you want to use this to meddle in the internal affairs of my Feiying Sect!"

"Do you want your Flying Eagle Sect to be completely destroyed in the hands of your disciples?"

Zhou Ming's voice came from behind.

"What does that matter to you?"

Ying Shiyu stared back at him and said.

"I'm a mortal, and my lifespan is no more than 30 to [-] years. When I die, the Feiying School will continue to behave like this. Do you think Wan Cheng Kingdom will be so polite to the Feiying School?"

Zhou Ming's words stunned Ying Shiyu's face, and he froze there.

die?
Why did this kid suddenly talk about death?

Zhou Ming walked over with a serious face: "Wancheng Kingdom governs the country by law. The first term of the country is renewed every five years. At most, I will be re-elected once, but I am already old and I don't plan to be re-elected. If he knew about the unreasonable behavior of a disciple of the Feiying Sect, how would he respond?"

"Today's Wancheng Kingdom's army is equipped with more than a hundred Lingyuan warships. You are only an immortal with a solid alchemy stage. What can you use to resist a hundred artillery bombardments?"

Seeing that Ying Shiyu wanted to refute, Zhou Ming pushed him back with one sentence, keeping him silent.

After a long time, Zhou Ming said slowly:

"I did this not to anger you, nor for myself, but for the future of the Feiying Sect!"

"Those black sheep must be cleaned up thoroughly, and it is best to kill them all, so as not to cause disaster."

"I agree with Zhang Jin's going to Feiyun Mountain. I just hope that he will complete this matter. Zhang Jin is your grandson and heir of your Feiying Sect. If you really have long-term plans, I hope you can trust Zhang Jin. Let him go and do this."

"If you don't trust me, your grandson Zhang Jin, but those disciples who have repeatedly lied to you, I will never let Zhang Jin go to Feiyun Mountain, it will kill him."

"Father, the future era is an era in which mortals and immortals coexist. Mortals can despise and suppress them, but they must never be bullied or tortured. At least in Wancheng, mortals are no longer the same as before. Treating him as an ant and killing him at will is killing himself, and no one can save him!"

"I'm fifty-eight years old this year. I definitely won't live for many years, and I won't be able to protect the Feiying Sect for many years. I'm not worried about where Wancheng Kingdom will go in the future, but where will your Feiying Sect go..."

Zhou Ming shook his head, "I really don't know."

Looking at Ying Shiyu again: "You can only look at yourself, how did you consider and choose?"

After hearing these words, Ying Shiyu fell into deep thought.

Seeing the white-haired son in front of him again, with deep and bright eyes at this moment, as if he was dying to confess, when he spoke earnestly to himself, Ying Shiyu even had an illusion:
In the end I am the father and you are the son, or you are the father and I am the son?

But Zhou Ming's words, he still listened to it, because it is true, if the Feiying Sect wants to continue in the territory of Wancheng Kingdom, and does not clean up the internal black sheep, sooner or later, it will be "lawed" by Wancheng Kingdom. to clean up.

The times have changed.

Today's immortals may really not be the opponents of mortals.
