Be a detective in Yuanshin

So the first batch of rebels exchanged their sacrifices for the autonomy of the slaves' lives.

When they work for the nobles and gentlemen every day, they are no longer in fear all day long. Although they still make things difficult, they are hanged up from time to time and seriously injured, at least their lives are saved.

After another thousand years, the slaves created more and more value, and they were unwilling to live like livestock without dignity.

The second uprising broke out again. As the ruling class of Liyue, Yueli Qixing once again chose these rebels to suppress the rebels in order to safeguard their own interests.

As a result, this matter shocked the immortals again. After discussing, the immortals felt that since everyone is human, they should indeed enjoy human dignity.

So the immortals abolished the servants, and stipulated that the nobles should not beat and trample the servants at will for fun and venting without reason.

Although the "slaves" don't have much money, and they may be forced to sign a contract of sale that is not called a "sell contract" in the event of a disaster, but compared to before, at least most of the time they can be regarded as individuals.

Later, ordinary people created more and more value, and they were eager to get more salary in their work.

In this way, you can save a little bit every month, and after a few more years, you will have a considerable amount of savings. When you encounter any catastrophe or illness, you can also have a way to deal with it, and you don't need to send out a contract of sale.

This time the lower-level Yueli people did not choose to revolt, but sent representatives to find the immortals, and asked the immortals to help them decide.

However, what the Yueli people didn't expect was that the immortals were furious when they heard this appeal, and even called the representatives elected by the Yueli people as "wolves who can't get enough to eat."

In the eyes of the immortals, it is reasonable for the people at the bottom of Yueli to ask for an improvement in their treatment.

It’s just that there is no problem once or twice at the beginning. The problem is that in just a few thousand years, if you continuously ask to improve your treatment like this, what is this if it’s not a wolf that can’t get enough?

Besides, the current low-level people in Yueli should be satisfied with their treatment that has been improved so much compared to before, and don't always push forward.

He even sighed: Human greed has no limits.

Liyue is not Yueli after all, what happened to Yueli in the story did not happen in Liyue.

But the situation in Li Shuo's story is repeated among the immortals.

Time is fair, humans have gone through 700 years, and immortals have also passed through 700 years, but immortals are the original immortals, while Liyue people... have changed from generation to generation.

Human life is changing, customs are changing, thinking is changing, awareness is changing, customs are changing, and even moral concepts are changing quietly.

Perhaps within 200 years, the system that was previously named Guigao has now become the dross of the past; the contract that was considered the fairest at the time should have been thrown into the garbage dump long ago.

Conversely, for the immortals, 200 years may be just a long sleep and a time of self-entertainment.

Due to being trapped in the fairyland between the clouds for too long, facing the rapid changes of Liyue people, do the immortals still use old concepts to look at today's world?

Are the immortals who were regarded as the most enlightened, radical, and even a symbol of wisdom at the beginning, corrupted, ignorant, and start to stand still?

20 years have passed for human beings, and 700 years have passed for immortals, and nothing has changed.

Liyue Qixing took advantage of their power to monopolize Liyue University and tried every means to evade taxes, but the immortals never cared about it, not because they didn't know, but the immortals didn't think there was any problem with it, and even It would also be considered simply benevolent to do so.

After all, monopoly still needs to do at least some superficial work. Back then, it didn't even need to do superficial work.

"What happened to the monopoly?

That is to say, Liyue Qixing is so easy to talk about now!

If it was the former Liyue Seven Stars, even the stalls would be confiscated.

At this time, the immortals who have already gotten used to the slow pace of Jueyunjian, let them step into Liyue City and experience the fast-paced life of human beings, which is an unrealistic extravagant hope.

It is even said that the rock king, who will incarnate as an ordinary person every year to experience human life, can guarantee that his judgment will always keep up with the progress of human beings?

It is even said that in the face of the common people at the bottom of Liyue, they have serious dissatisfaction with the commercial behavior of the Liyue Seven Stars' wanton monopoly, and there are even faint signs of resistance. What kind of judgment?

At this time when Emperor Yanwang was hesitating, a young man stepped forward. He was willing to make a decision for Emperor Yanwang and Liyue's future, but due to various reasons, he ended up being bruised.

But the young man was not discouraged. He wiped off the blood, wrapped up the wound, and re-drawn that confident smile at the corner of his mouth, just as he was about to continue fighting...

He was stunned to discover that he had become Liyue, the only foreigner since he did not know when!

Chapter 34: Why don't you die?

Zhong Li handed the wine bottle with only one sip left to Li Shuo, and watched as Li Shuo swung his arms and threw the bottle into the sea far away after drinking.

Zhongli: "Liyue is very big, from the three-eyed five-manifested immortal to the Qianyan Army; from the Liyue Seven Stars to the Liyue Merchant; Fools from all over the world come to spies;

There are too many forces intricately intertwined, and a single hair can affect the whole body.And... At that time, I was still groping in the endless darkness, hoping to find the right way out for Liyue. "

Li Shuo turned his head, looked at Zhongli with a smile on his brow, and said with a teasing tone, "Then you mean, you found it now?"

"Unfortunately, no."

Zhongli said so, but he couldn't hear the slightest regret in his tone. He smiled and looked at Li Shuo and said, "I'm thinking, maybe I was wrong."

"wrong?"

"As Li once said: Small government is in the government but not the people, great government is in the people's heart and not in the government. The journey of the great road is rooted in the hearts of the people. Immortals criticize it, which is insignificant.

After all, Liyue is a human Liyue. She uses the posture of a fairy to explore the direction of human progress. Although she can avoid many detours in terms of small politics, it is a matter of the rise and fall of the race. As the ancestor of the immortals, whether I Still qualified to guide the direction for mankind?

So I gradually realized that maybe I was wrong from the beginning. "

"Pfft, hahahaha!"

Li Shuo lay down on the beach with no image, and laughed so hard that he almost kicked his legs: "So now that you have figured it out, you are going to learn from Barbatos and start fishing?"

Zhong Li: "A sage never dies, but a thieves never stop. This is what Li told me."

Li Shuo spread his hands, made a "too" character on the beach, and looked up at Zhongli who was looking down at him: "Then you should be more extreme, really find an old crooked neck tree to hold yourself back." Hang to death. Like now, the whole Liyue knows that you faked your death, what's the point?"

"No."

"Ok?"

Zhong Li said meaningfully: "Actually, until now, some people still believe that Emperor Yan Wang is really dead."

"Who is so cute? I really want to bully him."

"Young Master of the Fools, Dadalia."

Li Shuo: "..."

In fact, both Zhongli and Li Shuo are very clear that the Emperor Yanwang can disappear slowly, but it is impossible to die suddenly and completely. It will definitely bring disaster to Liyue, and even the entire Tivat continent will be chaotic. into a ball.

That being the case, Zhongli's idea is also very simple, since he wants to change it, he should just muddy the water.Anyway, no matter what the result is, only when everything is in motion can we clearly see the undercurrent of the waves hidden under the calm.

As for before the truth is gradually revealed, as an ordinary person, I quietly appreciate this performance that is destined to be recorded in the annals of history.

Maybe many innocent people will die, maybe Liyue's economy will suffer a cliff-like blow, maybe Liyue will undergo earth-shaking changes since then, but as long as those people know that they are still alive, the trouble will not be completely unstoppable.

Of course...Even if that day really comes, Zhong Li has already prepared his backup.

As long as you have the strength to burn jade and stone together, you don't have to worry that the other party will really burn jade and stone with you.

In the silence, there was another wave.

A few unlucky crabs were rolled up to the coast along with other seafood. Li Shuo quickly took off his shirt and took out a ball of hemp rope. He quickly got up and grabbed the crabs before they ran back into the sea, and tied them skillfully. By the way, I picked up some sea shells and sea cucumbers and put them in my clothes. I decided to eat seafood at noon today.

Li Shuo, who was busy rushing to the sea, turned his back to Zhong Li and said, "I know you must have your own plans, so I don't bother to ask.

Anyway, as long as someone sees it and tells Liyue Qixing that you are still alive after turning around, the mission will be considered complete.By the way, is there anything else I want to take to Liyue Seven Stars? "

Zhongli frowned when he heard this, as if he was struggling with something. After a long time, he still made a decision: "Can you stop picking up those sea cucumbers? Li knows that I keep a respectful distance from all living and wriggling aquatic products. I'd better pick up more crabs and sea cucumbers." Let's cook and eat."

When Li Shuo heard Zhongli's proposal, he turned around angrily and said, "If you like to eat, you will be drawn to it! Think of it as before, I'll let you get used to it!"

Zhongli: "..."

Li Shuo: "Is there really nothing you want me to tell you?"

Zhongli shook his head.

Not surprisingly, for Emperor Yan Wang, the Liyue Seven Stars are just the seven forces that rule Liyue on their behalf.

Even if it is appreciation, it is only admiration for a specific person who is currently serving as the Liyue Seven Stars. As for the Liyue Seven Stars as a whole, as long as they can do well, they can be replaced if they can't.

What's more, now that Emperor Yanwang himself is ready to drink tea and watch a play, why would he go to the ward to send them down again?

In fact, Li Shuo had already guessed that such a day would appear since he heard the news of Yan Wang Dijun's fake death.

It's just that he is too lazy to care about these things. Relatively speaking, what to eat at noon is more important. Considering that Zhongli may have lunch at noon, why don't he find a way to get some octopus and squid?

What a great and noble act it is to help others overcome their shortcomings, and Li Shuo likes to help others so much.

"Ahem, let's go back."

Zhongli noticed Li Shuo's malicious eyes, and quickly proposed to leave this place of right and wrong.

Considering that squid and octopus often live in deep water areas, it is really inconvenient to catch them, so Li Shuo had no choice but to give up this idea.

Before returning to Xiangshengtang, hand over the crabs and the seafood in the coat to a buddy of Xiangshengtang, and then tell him to put the crabs in clear water and soak for about half an hour.

This means that if you want crabs, they will spit out the dirty things in their stomachs. There are a lot of parasites in crabs. If they are not treated and eaten directly, they are easy to be infected.

Zhong Li looked at Li Shuo who was going to take a bath after finishing the work, and suddenly remembered a very important event, and quickly called Li Shuo to say: "Don't forget to pay for the breakfast at Boss Shi's side."

This matter is directly related to whether he can go to have breakfast again tomorrow, and it is absolutely the most important thing.

Li Shuo froze slightly, paused for two seconds and said, "Don't worry, let's go now! By the way, the breakfast money for next month will also be paid in advance for you."

Only then did Zhong Li feel relieved, and after thinking about it, he suggested, "By the way, Li Gang has made a lot of money from Liyue Seven Stars, why don't you advance the breakfast money for the rest of this year as well?"

Meow meow meow?

Li Shuo: "Why don't you die!?"

Zhongli: "..."

Chapter 35: Then I go?

After the crabs have finished spitting out the sand and mud, they are steamed on the cage. After they are cooked, they are fresh and tender with wasabi.

Li Shuo caught quite a few, but it was a pity that he couldn't stand Paimeng and Ying, the big eaters, and the steamed crabs on a plate were half missing before they started.

Gan Yu doesn't eat meat, and of course he doesn't eat seafood, but it doesn't matter. There are many "Qing Xin" flowers planted in the backyard of Xiangshengtang, which is Gan Yu's favorite food.

After the brief chat with Zhong Li, Mandrill originally planned to look back at the Shu Inn, but was held back by Li Shuo.

The seafood is all cooked, so you have to finish eating before leaving.

What's more, watching Mandrill in front of Zhongli, eating seafood with a nervous and somewhat panicked look, Li Shuo's bad taste can always be satisfied.

Sure enough, people's happiness is based on the pain of others.

Hu Tao likes boiled fish the most, especially the boiled fish made by Li Shuo, which is simply her favorite. If it can be paired with shrimp dumplings, it will be a hit.

So whether Li Shuo wanted it or not, Hu Tao kept begging him to sneak in to steam two drawers of shrimp dumplings for herself.

Although, however, Li Shuo still satisfies Walnut's appetite helplessly.

There is no way, who will need to help in the Hall of Death in the future.

A seafood feast, tossing and tossing until the afternoon is finished, and the most uncomfortable thing is Mandrill.

Especially when I saw Hu Tao eating with Li Shuo and talking about Zhong Li's way of eating, it was even more uncomfortable.

On the contrary, Li Shuo was very happy to see Mandrill's deflated appearance, and the dinner table was full of joyful atmosphere.

The peaceful and peaceful time is always short. After lunch, Gan Yu first proposed to meet Yujingtai first.

On the one hand, it is to help Li Shuo convey the news to Liyue Qixing, on the other hand, she has been away for two and a half days, and there is probably a mountain of things that need to be dealt with at this special moment.

Fortunately, it has been confirmed that the emperor was not really assassinated, and no matter how much trouble comes next, it will not be fatal.

Mandrill also left. He came to see Emperor Yan. Apart from confirming with his own eyes that the emperor was safe and sound like Gan Yu, the most important thing was to ask how to deal with the remaining demon gods who were defeated in the "Demon God War" before the Seven Gods system was established. residue.

Although these residues were defeated by the Rock King Emperor, they were suppressed under the solid rock.

But the demon gods are all indestructible bodies. Although the consciousness will dissipate, the power and resentment will be left behind, turning into accumulated filth, which repeatedly harass all living beings.

Before this, Mandrill always took care of these troubles.

With the assassination of the Rock King Dijun, within the range of Liyue, Morax's power will gradually fade.In a few days, these filth will inevitably appear more frequently, and may even be used by those who want to.

What should be done now, Mandrill hopes to get the guidance of Emperor Yanwang.

Regarding this, Zhong Li did not give any suggestions, but let him make his own judgment on this matter.

Mandrill left with a bit of bewilderment.

As for Walnut, who originally wanted to stay and play for a while, because a supernatural event happened in Wuwangpo recently, I had to bid farewell to everyone and get down to business.

Seeing that everyone had almost left, Li Shuo casually threw the crab shells he had just eaten into the trash can next to him, looked at Ying and said, "Speaking of which, Ying came to Liyue to find Emperor Yan, right? It’s right in front of you, so if you have any questions, just ask.”

Ying: "emmmm..."
