"Zheng Qiao? Is he worthy?"
Gong Xichou's words were filled with deep contempt.
He even said disdainfully: "Go it alone? No."
"No?" Gong Xichou's answer was beyond Xun Ding's expectations. He couldn't help but sit up straight and asked, "Why?"
"Because it's troublesome."
“… Trouble?” Xun Ding almost stuttered.
"Isn't it troublesome to be the lord yourself?" Gong Xichou said with a look of "You are still too young", "I am not interested in fame and fortune. I want to become famous only to find my big brother and attract more and stronger warriors to challenge me, so that my life will not be so boring."
Gong Xichou's purpose has always been simple.
so-
It is impossible to work alone.
It's unlikely that you'll be able to work alone in this life.
He knows too well how troublesome it is to manage a team.
Not only does he have to spend countless energy, manpower, and material resources, but he also has to recruit people, fight with people, and balance the conflicts and interpersonal relationships among his subordinates. The greater the power, the more concerns he has to take. Does he still want to do whatever he wants
It's like a dream.
Just thinking about these things makes his head hurt.
Gong Xichou knows himself very well: "I am a natural born warrior. My uncle also said that I am a rare martial arts genius. I am destined to be born for fighting rather than for the battlefield. It is not an evenly matched match, but a one-sided massacre."
He didn't blush at all when he said this.
A perfect interpretation of what Versailles is.
He was addicted to the feeling of the collision and bombardment of power, and the supreme pleasure of wandering between life and death. Compared with them, life and death, victory and defeat were all burdens that could be discarded. If he became the lord, could he still be so willful and not care about victory or defeat, life and death
I'm afraid my subordinates will have a heart attack.
Besides, he really couldn't stand those tedious and tedious paperwork. He would rather fight in the battlefield seven times and seven times, fighting for seven days and seven nights with martial arts than sit at the desk and deal with paperwork for seven quarters of an hour. It would be more satisfying to kill him directly.
Xun Ding: “…”
Gong Xichou asked him, "Raising weapons against them is boring. Can you get pleasure from a one-sided massacre?"
Too weak and boring.
Xun Ding: “…”
He frowned: "...Of course not."
But this is not the purpose of war.
He had never seen Gong Xichou like this.
There are conditions for working alone, but I just don't want to.
I didn't expect Gong Xichou to have such a simple side: "If you don't want to do it yourself, then you have to obey others. With your broken temper, can you tolerate others telling you what to do? If you become too successful one day and your master abandons you, how will you protect yourself?"
Gong Xichou said: "Just find my brother."
Xun Ding didn't react for a moment.
"Now that I have found my brother, I can retreat while the going gets tough. If I ever feel like fighting someone, I'll fight whoever is famous. If I have nothing to do, I'll stay in the tribe... take care of Lai's future children, and play with my brother's children... Isn't this more interesting than scheming against each other?"
According to Gongxi customs, the uncle has to raise the sister's children, while the uncle's children are raised by the mother's brothers. He also doesn't know when he will be able to master martial arts, whether there will be a girl to accompany him in the future, and it is likely that he will be a bachelor.
It’s enough to raise Alai’s children just for fun.
After saying this, he realized that Xun Ding's stunned look was stupid enough, so he laughed heartily: "The Gongxi clan is a hermit clan. What's so strange about liking to live in seclusion? If there is no change in the clan, who would like to run outside? How can the outside compare to the quiet and comfortable clan land? I just want to live in seclusion with my brother... Admittedly, it is very vast, but there is still no place for my Gongxi Chou..."
The last sentence is inexplicably sad.
Gongxi Chou is different from his father Jimo Can.
Jimo Can has the world in his heart. He cannot stand the chaos in the outside world and actively joins the world, making himself embarrassed. But Gongxi Chou is different. He just wants to stay in the clan land and accompany his clan members. Does the life and death of the common people have anything to do with him
He only cares about his family.
He only has these few relatives.
Seeing this, Xun Ding stopped trying to persuade him. He knew very well that Gong Xichou had a strong purpose. He came back to the world for no other reason than to make a name for himself and find his brother. It was useless to persuade him. Xun Ding went over several familiar goals in his mind.
"Who do you plan to become famous with?"
If it were anyone else, becoming famous wouldn’t be easy.
But Gong Xichou is already a fifteenth-rank junior superior at such a young age. What does it mean to be a fifteenth-rank junior superior at this age
It should be noted that in the two hundred years since the arrival of the Thief Star, there have been only three people in the 20th rank of Chehou recorded in history, and only a few thousand people with names and surnames of the 15th rank or above. If we include those who are not recorded or whose records have been lost, this group is at most more than 2,000 people.
Gong Xichou has been shortlisted.
He is still in the golden period of rapid growth in strength.
He could be overwhelmed with olive branches if he wanted to.
Gong Xichou shook his head: "No target for now."
Xun Ding: "Gu Ren?"
Gong Xichou: "Bummer, noisy."
Gu Ren's youngest sworn brother is also a victim of the poisonous insect. When Gong Xichou sees him, he is easily reminded of the pain of genocide...
Xun Ding asked again: "Wu Xian?"
Gong Xichou scratched his ears: "I am so soft-hearted, it's annoying."
He had fought with Wu Xian's warrior, Zhao Feng? Gong Xichou had made enemies with them, so it would be awkward to run over to them. I heard that Wu Xian was easily influenced by others, and there were a bunch of arrogant young men from noble families around him. Why would he go and cause trouble
Xun Ding: "Zhang He?"
Gong Xichou blew on his pinky finger: "I don't like it."
If it weren't for Zhang He, the clan's sacred object would have been found long ago. How could we still have no clues? Humph!
Xun Ding: "Huang Lie?"
Without waiting for Gong Xichou's reply, he said, "I heard that Huang Lie has a large number of heavy shield warriors under his command, and their combat power should not be underestimated."
When Gong Xichou heard the name, he thought of something and sneered, "This thing will die a miserable death sooner or later."
Xun Ding asked a few more people.
Gong Xichou doesn't like any of them.
The only person I like—
Xun Ding: "Shen Tang?"
Gong Xichou raised his lips at first, and Xun Ding thought there was a chance, but he opened his mouth and said, "Mama is good, but she is also the worst choice. If I meet a strong opponent, she will compete with me, how can I become famous? Besides, she has no war to fight in the past two years... If a brave warrior has no war to fight, isn't it just training? If she forces me to do odd jobs, how boring will that be?"
In fact, the first person he ruled out was Shen Tang.
It completely conflicts with his needs.
Gu Ren and the others are more suitable than her.
Xun Ding said disdainfully: "... You are so hard to please..."
Gong Xichou selectively ignored his complaints, resting his chin on his hand and racking his brains, when suddenly an idea came to him: "If we are to look for them, we should look for those with small power, unstable forces, and those on the brink of disaster. The weaker they are, the more they can demonstrate our strength."
Xun Ding stared: "... A dignified young master of the fifteenth rank took the initiative to come to me for help, aren't you afraid of scaring me to death?"
"Who said surrender? It's just to help the other party gain a foothold and expand their influence. Once the goal is achieved, you can take the money and leave."
"Take, take the money???" Xun Ding raised his voice.
Gong Xichou: "What else? Fighting for nothing? Rebuilding the clan land will cost real money, and raising Alai's children will also cost money! After the clan was exterminated, most of the clan land and property were lost. How will future generations eat without the ancestral inheritance?"
We need to save inheritance for future generations of the clan.
Gong Xichou didn't expect Xun Ding to be so naive, and asked: "Did your father raise you by relying on the northwest wind?"
The poor are good at literature and the rich are good at martial arts. Under normal circumstances, every inch of muscle on a martial artist's body is built with countless money and food.
Xun Ding opened his mouth, but couldn't refute.
He finally understood Gong Xichou's plan.
"What you mean... you collect money to help others fight, and when you achieve your goal, you switch to another company to collect money to continue fighting. Are you relying on this method to become famous? Aren't you afraid that you will be criticized by the outside world as a slave of many surnames?"
He wanted to shake the water out of Gong Xichou's head.
Clear your mind!!!
Gong Xichou was displeased: "How can the matter of paying for goods be linked to the servants? Collecting money to help others get rid of disasters is not selling oneself. Scholars and warriors are loyal to one master, and in the final analysis, it is also to make a living. They eat at one family, and I just eat at a few more to try the saltiness. If I am not happy, I can change my appetite. How can I become a servant of multiple surnames? How can this be justified..."
Xun Ding: “…”
Gong Xichou asked, "Wouldn't you get tired of eating at just one restaurant?"
Xun Ding: “…”
How can this be a question of whether you get tired of it or not
He finally realized that Gong Xichou had no moral principles at all.
He thought that it was just Gongxi Chou who was going crazy, but Xun Ding never expected that he also had his own problems.
Forced buying and selling is unreasonable.
Xun Ding protested: "How can a great devil from Minfeng County sell himself for gold and silver... I am..."
Is he a man who can be obtained by money? ?
Gong Xichou said calmly: "He was defeated by my men."
Finishing off: "A defeated enemy is worthless."
Hire Gong Xichou and bring in Xun Ding as a bonus.
