When Liang Lidong returned to the village, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Whether it is a child or an adult. They were worried that Liang Lidong would never come back. It wasn't because Liang Lidong owed them anything... teaching dozens of children to read and teach them the principles of life, the tuition fees, not to mention building a temple, even building three such temples, It is not enough; but if Liang Lidong leaves the village, it will be very difficult for the children to find a teacher and to have a temple in the village. It is estimated that the village has been built for hundreds of years. If there is such an opportunity for hundreds of years, once it is gone, the people in the village will be depressed for at least several decades.
After returning to their small cottage, Liang Lidong and Joan of Arc slept until the next day. Although he often stayed in the hotel for the past few days and didn't move much, his mental exhaustion was real. In order to make his plan succeed, his spirit had been stretched like a bowstring. Things are just like what he said, no plan can guarantee 100% perfection, no matter how sophisticated a plan is, it needs a certain amount of luck to succeed, fortunately, this time Liang Lidong is not lacking in luck, the plan went smoothly, That's why he can now fall asleep steadily.
When he woke up the next day, he found that there were a lot of fresh ingredients at the door, because the spring equinox season had just begun, and most of the green plants were not yet edible, so there were some meats at the door, such as Rabbit, beef, lamb, stuff like that.
Liang Lidong returned to the room, and Joan of Arc, who was lying on the bed, smiled and said: "You were not vigilant at all from last night to this morning. If someone left something at your door in the past, you would have woken up. I should be the most tired person, but now it seems that you are more tired than me."
Liang Lidong smiled, and made a sumptuous breakfast for himself and Joan of Arc. Then he went to the river to teach the group of children.
I haven't seen each other for about ten days. The thirst for knowledge in the children's eyes is even stronger. They are used to the days when they can learn new knowledge every day. Suddenly, there is a break of about ten days. The empty, as if lost mood, They don't want to go through it again.
After more than an hour of routine teaching the children, he called Belin and Kyle to follow. At Houshan, Liang Lidong asked them to show the learning situation of the past ten days. Belin is now completely able to see everything without blinking, and her willpower has increased, and the next step is a higher level of exercise, meditation.
Meditation is a skill that mages and priests must learn, but warlocks don't need it, because warlocks cast spells more by instinct than knowledge or willpower. Moreover, the magic effect of warlocks is higher. At first glance, warlocks seem to be more powerful, but in fact warlocks are subject to great restrictions. After all, warlocks' magic is limited by their blood, and there are only a few of them. In order to enrich their combat methods, most of them Every warlock will learn additional combat skills, such as using hand crossbows and making scrolls.
The god-born nobles are actually similar, but because of their professional characteristics, Liang Lidong can learn quite good melee swordsmanship, and he also got the specialty of 'making scrolls', which greatly improved his combat skills. Besides, the magic skill 'Driving the Fog' is quite powerful. Liang Lidong has been able to leapfrog 'spawning monsters' recently, and he has more enemies with fewer enemies, all thanks to the effect of this skill.
Although warlocks don't need to master the skill of 'meditation', Liang Lidong also knows how to train this specialty. He said to Belin: "Now I want to teach you the technique of 'meditation'. First of all, you have to sit cross-legged. It doesn't matter the posture. In fact, you can also lie down, but it's easy to fall asleep while lying down, so the common posture for meditation They are all sitting cross-legged, which is easier for beginners.”
Belin sat down as promised and closed her eyes. Liang Lidong condensed a little white light with his fingers, then tapped on the girl's forehead, and asked, "Can you see this white light in your consciousness?"
Belin nodded.
Liang Lidong withdrew his finger: "Can you still see the white light now?"
Bellin closed her eyes and shook her head. Liang Lidong said: "That's right. From now on, you can imagine that there is such a white light in your consciousness. You don't need to think about anything else. Just try it now."
Belin sat cross-legged and nodded vigorously.
Then Liang Lidong turned his attention to Kyle, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time. He said with a smile, "It's been five months. Let me see how your stabbing is doing. You can show me one."
Kyle picked up the training wooden sword and stabbed at the side. He almost used all his strength in this sword. The speed of the wooden sword stabbing was very fast. Already exhausted, although he exhausted all his strength, but the tip of his sword was very stable, it stopped in the air and did not even move.
"Teacher, it's okay." Kyle didn't know what to do.
Liang Lidong frowned slightly. It wasn't that Kyle used his sword badly, but overused it. He had only practiced stabbing for just over five months, but he already had the demeanor of a master swordsman. It stands to reason that this is not very scientific, unless... Liang Lidong thought of a possibility, he pulled the system character prompt into his field of vision, and was a little surprised.
Name: Kyle Reed (lv1)
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Age: 15
Profession:? ?
Sure enough! Looking at the data, Liang Lidong sighed. In the game, if an ordinary npc wants to become a professional, it must go through quite rigorous training, and then it will undergo a qualitative transformation after mastering a combat specialty. For example, Belin, she also trained for five months, but she is still an ordinary person.
Seeing that Liang Lidong didn't speak for a long time, Kyle felt a little uneasy, and asked in a low voice: "Teacher, can I practice my swordsmanship well?"
Liang Lidong breathed a sigh of relief: "Although I have never believed in the existence of geniuses, but this time I have to say, Kyle, you are indeed very powerful. No wonder that mercenary taught you nondescript swordsmanship, and you can also practice tricks Come on, practice orthodox swordsmanship now, you are making great progress!"
Hearing the teacher's praise, Kyle was happy and grinned. Liang Lidong then continued: "Don't rush to be happy, I have one more important thing to tell you. Although I don't know what's going on, but you are now a professional, and your swordsmanship has improved by leaps and bounds in a short period of time. I I suspect that you have already mastered the specialty of 'Sword Mastery'."
After a brief hesitation, Kyle's mouth opened wider and wider, and finally he jumped up suddenly, let out a joyous cry from his mouth, and then ran around on the grass with his hands open. The sound startled Belin, who was meditating, to frown.
"Teacher, is it true, is it true?" Kyle's handsome face had an indescribable ecstasy.
Liang Lidong understood his current mood very well, and didn't think he was troublesome, he just said: "You can try to cut down a tree with a wooden sword. If you can cut down a small tree like me, it will definitely be fine."
After Kyle heard this, he immediately walked aside. After concentrating for half a second, a sword stabbed out. Half of the wooden sword was pierced into the tree, but the wooden sword itself was not damaged in any way. He still couldn't believe it at this time, after repeatedly confirming that his wooden sword was intact, he finally grinned happily.
Becoming a professional is the ideal of most npcs, because it means a new way out. But Liang Lidong understands that Kyle wants to become a professional, not for the so-called way out, nor for survival, but for a dream, a dream of going out to see and walk, and it is also the purest power of action. In this dangerous world, people with dreams are very rare, but the more people have dreams, the more vulnerable they are to the world's malice.
Liang Lidong was about to warn Kyle about some unwritten rules about professionals, but at this moment, a child came running outside, and he shouted: "Teacher, there is a noble outside the village looking for you. He claims to be the city lord!"
"coming!"
Liang Lidong smiled inwardly, and let Bei Lin continue to learn the skills of meditation, while he went to the entrance of the village. As soon as he got there, he saw the face of the city lord who was so dark that he was followed by a hundred cavalry.
Half a minute later, the two were sitting in the thatched hut, and the city lord scolded directly: "Your Excellency Beta, I don't think I offended you, how could you do this to me."
"How did I hurt you?" Liang Lidong asked back.
"I found Ackerman's body in the mine yesterday. This is your handwriting." Uther was angry and slapped down vigorously, and the wood stared tightly into several pieces. He cursed: "You kid offended the Temple of Life, but you led this matter to me. You are so scheming. Is it true that I, Uther, don't know how to kill people and dare not kill people?"
"Of course I know that you know how to kill people. You must have killed the six priests of the Temple of Life." Liang Lidong snorted, as if turning a blind eye to the castellan's anger: "But Ackerman's death really has nothing to do with me. Besides, you have killed six priests of the Temple of Life, the city lord, and it would not hurt to have one more Adoman, so why be so angry!"
"Ackerman's death really had nothing to do with you?"
Liang Lidong said firmly: "It doesn't matter!"
"Very good! That 15% of the gold mine income has nothing to do with you from now on!" Uther reconciled and wanted to leave.
Without raising his head, Liang Lidong asked directly, "Why?"
"I don't want to cooperate with a liar." Uther's face was full of sarcasm.
Liang Lidong smiled: "Am I a liar? Is my treasure map fake? Or is the contract I signed a fake? The contract clearly states that I will provide information, and you will provide manpower. You will get the most of the benefits, even if you do so You are not satisfied, and you still want to find a reason to swallow what I deserve. You Uther can indeed kill people, but... you also think that I, Beta, will not kill people, and dare not kill people?"
Uther's eyes narrowed, and the cold light reflected in his eyes. He didn't expect that Liang Lidong would dare to be tough at this time: "You dare to threaten me? Do you know that I can kill you with just a stretch of my hand now?" , even if it doesn’t work, there are more than a hundred cavalry outside the house, you can try to kill me! See if it’s your magic power or I have more people.”
"No need!" Liang Lidong pointed to the ground: "In fact, I have already set up a magic circle where you are. As long as I take fatal damage, this place will explode with a bang. Besides, you really think I have no Any melee ability? Uther, you have already been fooled by your cleverness a few months ago, don't play these petty tricks again now. You must send me all the scum of my 15% profit , otherwise don't blame me for being rude. Do you really think there is no one behind me?"
Liang Lidong's face was as cold as ice for ten thousand years, his 'noble temperament' talent was activated, and his momentum was like a real mountain peak, pressing directly to the opposite side.
Uther became more and more annoyed. Since he broke Enleko half a year ago, no one in Winterwind City dared to talk to him like that. When he came to Reed Village this time, he really had the intention of raising a teacher to inquire about the crime, but on the other hand, he also wanted to take this opportunity to swallow up Beta's benefits, but he didn't expect that when he came tough, he received more. Strong answer.
He really wants to kill Beta right now, the 15% interest in the gold mine is really too big, to the point where he wants to kill anyone. But the problem is that the other party gave him a very dangerous feeling. Half a year ago, he didn't realize that the young man in front of him was so scary, which made him dare not act rashly.
"Heh, if it weren't for the fact that you are my future son-in-law, Mr. Kyle, I would have killed you. Let's forget it this time. If you dare to lie to me next time, you must die." Uther Er stood up and hurriedly left the thatched house in a few steps. He really believed that there was a powerful magic circle buried underground. After going outside, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly left with his cavalry.
"Hmph, flirt with me?" Liang Lidong looked at Uther's back, quite disdainful: "In the game, I dared to point at the demigod's face and call her a female cousin, a mere city lord, I still I'm afraid you won't make it? When I don't know what you're here for, any liars and misleading people are all fake, and you just want to use this to create trouble and swallow my share!"
Joan of Arc asked from the side: "Since you don't love money very much, why don't you just return the profits from the gold mine to him? Why offend a city lord?"
"Uther is a nobleman first, and then a soldier!" Liang Lidong replied, "I know the nobles quite well. They are jackals who bully the weak and fear toughness. As long as you take a step back, if you show weakness, they will Find a way to get more benefits from you, and then swallow you bone and skin. To deal with these nobles, it is a good way to be tougher than him. If I didn't do that just now, in less than ten minutes, He will bring the cavalry outside the village to kill the two of us, of course, he may not be able to kill us, but it is always unpleasant to be bullied and disgusted."
Liang Lidong heard the sound of the cavalry's horseshoes gradually receding, and he continued: "Uther is a good father, a good city lord, and a very competent and cunning nobleman. I admire a word very much, if you come out to mess around, sooner or later you will Yes. He dared to drag us into the water half a year ago and almost killed us. Now I dare to lead the disaster to him and extract a large amount of wealth from his mouth. In the early years, I I was bullied by npc nobles, and now I want to play these little tricks again, do I really think that my eight years of game time are for nothing?"
Joan turned her head sideways: "Why can't I understand the second half of your sentence... What is Enbixi, game time?"
