"President, the guests have arrived!" A subordinate announced outside the door, interrupting the unfinished chat between the two. The two of them adjusted their clothes, Liu Xuange's expression changed, and he solemnly shouted to the door: "Invite!"
Li Ping'an entered the huge living room under the guidance of Yu Xinyi. Not to mention that the Sanfentianxia Club was indeed wealthy and wealthy. The room was large and the floor height was nearly 9 meters. After entering, he felt a little out of place.
The rare Chinese decoration style in the room, including dragon columns, landscape paintings, Eight Immortals tables and chairs, screens... The pulp-coated golden nanmu and mahogany all reveal the luxury here, and even the carpets under your feet are exquisitely embroidered.
But these were not the most shocking things for Li Ping'an. What made him unable to take his eyes away the most was the huge painting behind Liu Xuange and Kong Wei, which was actually "Three Heroes Fighting Lu Bu"!
"Brother Mei, welcome! I am Liu Xuange!"
"Welcome! Vice President Kong Wei!"
The two giants of the Sanfentianxia Club warmly extended their hands to shake hands with Li Ping'an, saying that it was a high-level meeting. However, except for the president and vice president, none of the other senior directors were present. Even Yu Xinyi quietly exited the living room and spoke carefully. They closed the door. It was obvious that the meeting and conversation between the three of them was not accessible to their level.
"Hello, two presidents!" Li Pingan greeted the two of them with a smile, without any stage fright. It is said that he has also entered middle age. Although his appearance in this game's other world does not look like a middle-aged person, his mental age is also there. He has seen strong winds and waves and has nothing to be nervous about.
"Liu Xuange, Liu Xuande? Kong Wei, Kong Ming and Jiang Wei? Especially this floor-to-ceiling mural of the Three Heroes fighting Lu Bu. If I guessed it right, the two presidents are fans of the Three Kingdoms! Hehe..." Li Ping'an couldn't help but be curious. asked.
Liu Xuange and Kong Wei were stunned for a moment, then exchanged glances and laughed heartily. "Xuange, this Mei brother has an appetite for us!"
"Needless to say, Brother Mei is a cheerful person! He and I hit it off like old friends!" Liu Xuange and Kong Wei sang together, and Li Ping'an felt a little regretful. NND, he accidentally exposed his identity as an awakened person.
The story of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is unique to the earth world. If they are the aborigines of the Nage world, they should not have this association and memory. Li Ping'an knew the allusion of the Three Heroes fighting Lu Bu, and also knew the deep meaning of the names of Liu Xuange and Kong Wei. How could he explain it if he was not an awakened person? It turns out this entrance was a trap!
Li Ping'an is inevitably dissatisfied. I went to the meeting sincerely, and you two gave me a Hongmen banquet. Damn it! Do you think I'm an idiot for playing tricks?
"Brother Mei, please don't mind. The layout of this hall has not been set up for you for more than ten years. Awakened people are unfamiliar to many people, but to both of us, it is just an identity. I, Kong Wei, are the same. The Awakener!" Kong Wei was Kong Wei, and he knew from Li Pingan's subtle expression changes that the other party was dissatisfied, even though Li Pingan hid it well.
"Yes, yes, brother Mei, don't get me wrong. There are only three of us in this meeting. The main reason is to be honest with each other. I, Liu Xuange, have no reservations about making friends." Liu Xuange quickly agreed. Kong Wei was thoughtful, and he Still half a beat too slow.
The dissatisfaction in Li Ping'an's heart relaxed a little. It seemed that the two of them had no ill intentions. They just brought up the topic of "Awakened Ones" as soon as they came. Where was the sword pointed?
"Brother Mei, please sit down! Let's chat while drinking tea. Although this tea is not as good as Longjing and Biluochun in the earth world, the wild tea picked in the Forgotten Forest can still be eaten. You might as well try it." Kong Wei greeted.
Li Ping'an was not reserved either. He sat down carelessly and took a sip from the antique teacup. The tea was fragrant but lacked a bit of long-lasting charm, giving him a sense of loss that disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Well, the tea is good tea, but it's a pity that the tea flavor is too short..." Li Ping'an commented.
"Brother Mei is the one who knows the goods. I, Liu Xuange, am a big boss, and Kong Wei also commented on this tea. It seems that you are heroes and have the same opinion!" Liu Xuange laughed and said.
"This is how the tea in this game's other world is. The charm of tea disappears in the blink of an eye, just like an illusion. It is inevitable for people to feel disappointed." Kong Wei said with something in mind.
"Hey, two presidents, let's get straight to the point. Since the three of us are talking behind closed doors, there is no need for us to test each other out. Inviting me this time should not be as simple as increasing the supply of magical potions. I believe there is no shortage in the three-point world. That little money." Li Ping'an started directly.
"Okay, let's get straight to the point. Brother Mei must also know about the halo. In order to balance the strength among the largest clubs in the main city, everyone is using various methods to increase members and their own strength." Liu Xuange took over the words After coming over, he looked at Kong Wei. Kong Wei cleared his throat and continued: "We hope you can help synthesize some important equipment. In addition, I also want to ask you about something so that we can exchange opinions."
"What equipment?" Li Pingan asked directly.
"Long Yin, Po Kong! Style suit!" Kong Wei said cautiously, staring at Li Ping'an's eyes. "Oh, the most powerful equipment below level 100 except skill weapons." Li Ping'an commented lightly, without any emotion, as if these equipment were just street stalls.
"If I guess correctly, Brother Mei is not only an awakener, but he also seems to have been exposed to the gameplay of this alien game? At least you are the only one who can synthesize special drugs, right!" Kong Wei was testing this, he didn't dare Sure, but already 90% sure.
Li Ping'an smiled and said nothing, but faced the menacing gazes of Mian Wei and Liu Xuange. A few seconds later, Kong Wei immediately changed his face and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Mei, I was presumptuous! I'm so sorry!" Kong Wei stood up and held his hands in front of Li Pingan, which was full of sincerity.
Li Ping'an waved his hand and said: "I can take over this synthesis commission business. But I also need to ask you for some equipment, just a whiteboard!"
"Brother Mei, it doesn't matter!" Liu Xuange accepted directly.
"Future helmet, future boots, plus a set of Sarina or Milo. If you don't have any, then the Demon-Breaking Sword or the Fengliu Dao, or the King of Fighters or Poseidon gloves." Li Ping'an was already prepared and simply put the conditions Throw it directly. The so-called negotiation, the important thing is to talk.
"There is no problem with future helmets and future boots. We have them in the Sanfentianxia Club's warehouse. But I'm afraid we don't have a complete set of Salina, and the Miro suit is missing the helmet and I can barely get it together." Kong Wei, as the club's manager The second master has a clear list of high-end equipment.
"That's no problem, I have no other requirements!" Li Ping'an was in a good mood. It seemed that this future suit was about to take shape.
"Brother Mei, these Dragon Roar and Breaking Sky are very rare equipment. I'm afraid you will be under a lot of pressure when synthesizing them." Liu Xuange was still a little worried and pointed out the power of them.
Chapter 202 Is the truth important?
"President Liu is overly worried. Dragon Yin Breaking Sky is only equipment below level 100. Compared with level 100 and above, skill weapons are the most cherished. Even Dragon Slaying Knife and Soul Seizing Gloves cannot be compared with it. "Li Ping'an said disapprovingly.
"What, after level 100? But we don't have a strong person in the entire Nage world who has reached level 100 yet!" Liu Xuange asked in surprise.
"Xuange, yes! Did you forget to awaken the ten people?" Kong Wei reminded, but Meichuan Kuzi knew so clearly the strength of the equipment after level 100, which just confirmed his conjecture that Li Ping'an was definitely in front. The world of raw earth has been exposed to the game rules of this other world, otherwise a level 70 player would not be able to know so clearly what happens after level 100.
"That's it!"
"Brother Mei, I would like to ask you something. How much do you know about the Awakening of the Ten People? Do you support their approach?" Kong Wei asked while the iron was hot.
"I only heard about the existence of the Awakening Ten. I met a guy named Qiongqi on the second floor of the Crystal Cave. He was wearing a +4 future suit. Later, I heard that there is a saying in the market that the so-called Awakening Ten The People are a group of powerful organizations whose purpose is to break the rules and mechanisms of the world system. I am not convinced about this, after all, I am far from that level, and it is too early to choose a side now!"
What Li Ping'an said is indeed true. The combat level has not reached level 100, and he has not even put on the style-level suit. It is really unreasonable to talk about challenging the system mechanism.
"Thank you, Brother Mei, for telling the truth. To tell you the truth, I have discussed this matter with Xuange not once or twice. It is also very confusing for me personally. It is not that I am afraid of waking up, or that I am afraid of change, but that I am afraid of waking up or changing. I don’t want to go back to the world after the disaster!” When Kong Wei mentioned the word “catastrophe,” Li Ping’an’s heart skipped a beat. He didn’t want to live the life of eating instant noodles on credit and being an unpopular anchor again.
"Catastrophe! No one has mentioned these two words to me for a long time. I am an extremist. I believe that those who are willing to continue to sink in the Nage world are those who have lived in embarrassment in the post-catastrophe era and desperately want to return to the post-catastrophe era. People in the era world must be people from the upper class who hold power and resources in the old world. People are selfish, and like animals, they only look for a comfortable and suitable habitat." Li Ping'an Nannan said.
"Aren't you curious about the truth behind this world?" Kong Wei asked.
"The truth? There is a saying that curiosity killed the cat. It doesn't matter what the truth is. Whether this game is an illusion or a dream, or a playground randomly built by alien creatures, wherever you feel comfortable is home. ! If the price of the truth is pain, I would rather not have the truth." Li Ping'an has actually made his position vaguely clear. He does not intend to rush to pry into the truth behind this world. What he has to do first is to make himself stronger, and the days will come first. Better than comfortable.
"Hey, Brother Mei's words really enlightened me. We really don't need to rush to stand aside. Whether to challenge the rules of the system is not a mandatory question. On the contrary, how to live comfortably and what suits you is the best. ! Clearing the clouds and seeing the sun, I knew that meeting you today would be fruitful!" Kong Wei felt as if listening to your words was better than ten years of reading.
He has been struggling with this matter for so many years, as if Zhang Xiaotian's group of people and the awakening group of ten people are two completely opposite ideological viewpoints, and he is hesitant and at a loss before this must-choose topic.
"Hahaha... I'm just saying, you're in a dilemma, just make peace with it, whether it's illusion or truth, whatever makes you feel comfortable!" Liu Xuange laughed heartily, and Meichuan Kuzi's remarks were very harmful to him. appetite.
"It's not fun to drink tea. Let the three of us have a cup. It's worth a cup just to let Kong Wei untie his knot!" Liu Xuange suggested.
"Xuan Ge is right, he should have a drink! Although he is not an awakened person, hahahaha..." Kong Wei teased.
It has been a long time since Li Ping'an revealed his inner thoughts to others in such a deep way. The awakened people have always kept silent about their past experiences and memories. It must be said that Kong Wei has a unique personal charm and can guide Li Ping'an to open up his heart.
Li Ping'an took the wine glass handed over by Liu Xuange, "Ding" and the three of them touched the rim of the glass, raised their heads and drank it all in one gulp.
"Fruit wine!" Li Pingan said in surprise. "Fruit wine" is a leisure drinking item unique to the Nage world. It is only dropped in the Forgotten City 2 area. Although it is not rare, it is the first time for Li Pingan to taste it. .
"This fruit wine is boring. It's not like the white wine in the earth world. If anyone brews wine with a certain alcohol concentration in this world, he will definitely make a lot of money. At least I will be the first to book it with him, hehe! Kong Wei said through the fruit wine.
"To be honest, Brother Mei, I was a wine seller in the world after the disaster. After the disaster, everyone was hungry, and the wine in the stomach only increased hunger, so my business is very average, but occasionally I can meet someone Two rich and powerful people take wine from me, which is enough for me to make ends meet. By the way, I would like to ask, what does Brother Mei do?" Kong Wei and Meichuan Kuzi hit it off immediately, and had no intention of hiding anything. Instead, they felt sympathy for each other. sense of closeness.
"Hey, I almost didn't starve to death if I lost my job!" Li Ping'an frowned slightly. Li Ping'an really didn't want to recall the world after the disaster. He was too miserable and depressed.
"Okay, don't dwell on the bittersweet. Brother Mei, we had such a good chat and we all have a lot of consensus. I sincerely invite you to join our Three Points World Club! How about Ren?" Liu Xuange changed his tone. , directly asked Li Pingan to join the meeting.
On the one hand, Li Ping'an's membership has greatly enhanced the strength of the Sanfentianxia Club. On the other hand, Kong Wei also has a partner with whom he can discuss issues. After all, there are still many differences between the thinking of the awakened people and the aborigines of the Nage world. In other words, everyone is not here a channel.
Although Liu Xuange and Kong Wei were brothers who had died together, and they had established a huge club together, Kong Wei was depressed a lot of the time. Liu Xuange didn't understand some things when he told them about them, and he always felt that his thinking was not up to par. Following the opponent's rhythm, if Umekawa Kuko joins, and there is an additional mediator, wouldn't it be a good thing for the "Three Brothers in Taoyuan" to be achieved?
"What director! If Brother Mei is willing to join the Sanfentianxia Club, I will let the vice president out! I will just be a small director!" Kong Wei waved his hand, his determination and invitation were even greater, and the vice president also asked When he came out, Li Ping'an saw that his expression didn't seem to be fake, it should be sincere, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved.
