Juecheng was silent for a while before saying, "So why do you say that? If you say that, do we no longer even have to be friends?"
"No matter what I say, we are all friends. From the beginning of the land of hell, I knew you had a mission, but we are still friends. I have always believed in this."
"You...really think so?" Juecheng felt Jiang Wei's sincerity and couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart.
"So can we be honest with each other in the future?"
"I...I didn't expect you to be so free and easy."
Juecheng has never forgotten his camp, because he has been thinking about this matter in his heart, which led him to deliberately avoid Jiang Wei and the others.
As the leader of the Crusade, although he often has to report to Mr. Kong, he still has basic freedom. When Jue Cheng is free, he will also go to the ant cave, forcing the grays or construction ants to open a way for him to find a passage to the underground world.
But even construction ants don’t know how to get around places they’ve never been before. In addition, construction ants hate being coerced by others and refuse to cooperate with humans. Even if they lead the way, they only lead carelessly.
Once upon a time, Juecheng was almost attacked by the Grays and the construction ants. If he hadn't marked it along the way, he would have been trapped in an ant cave and couldn't get out.
In short, after leaving Jiang Wei and the others, Juecheng spent a lot of time in the ant cave. The more he did this, the more he felt sorry for Jiang Wei and the others.
Now, Jiang Wei suddenly confessed, shocking Juecheng.
"Juecheng, I am the same as you. I also hope that the two worlds can be connected, but at least not at this stage. Maybe the people in Lingming Village are kind, but the underground king and ministers will not think so. If the two If the world is connected hastily, it will inevitably lead to a war that will destroy all lives."
"I know this very well, but it seems inevitable. The underground people are too eager to come to the surface."
"I can't make the decision on these things. If you really want the underground people to come to the surface as soon as possible, maybe you can talk to my dad. If everything can be negotiated peacefully, it will be beneficial to everyone."
"So the purpose of your coming today is for me to see your father?"
"Well, that's what my dad meant. He really wants to talk to you."
"It's so sudden. Why didn't you find a way to talk to me before?" Juecheng said unexpectedly.
"There are many reasons, but the main reason is probably that my father became bolder after Mr. Kong disappeared."
"Haha, as expected, no matter who they are, they have to be afraid of Mr. Kong."
"Come with me, go see my dad, and leave today."
"So anxious?"
"Because I don't like to be sloppy." Jiang Wei smiled.
"Okay." Juecheng also smiled.
After discussing the main things, Jiang Wei still remembered one more important thing, which was to find the former Shanyin City guard captain. Through him, Jiang Wei knew who the officer in charge of information about the western city was.
This man's name is General Kun, and he is the direct deputy general of Yu Wen Mie, one of the Five Tigers. He is deeply appreciated by Yu Wen Mie. This man was currently working in Cangzhou City, and Jiang Wei thought that she would find him out this time when she went back and punish him.
Regarding the matter of more than 50,000 gray people, Jiang Wei had no choice but to make the decision without authorization and let them continue to stay in the Yinshan Grand Canyon. As for whether to continue building the pyramids, Jiang Wei gave suggestions and hoped that they would not continue to be built. However, after Juecheng and Jiang Wei leave, it is impossible to know whether Juecheng's subordinates will continue to let them build. but
There was nothing she could do. Jiang Wei couldn't care about so much anymore. She had to fulfill Jiang Feng's instructions and bring Juecheng to Cangzhou as soon as possible.
Juecheng was also very cooperative. He and Li Ming Jiang Wei traveled at night and arrived at Cangzhou City at noon the next day.
Jiang Feng was so excited when he saw them that he set up a rare banquet to welcome Jue Cheng.
After a few simple polite words, Jiang Feng got straight to the point.
"Juecheng, I know you have no intention of joining any force, so this time I mainly want to ask for your help and cooperate to destroy Chu Ci."
"I thought I came here to discuss the connection between the two worlds."
"Sooner or later the two worlds will be connected, but not now."
"Then what else do we have to talk about?"
"There may only be two people who can find the passage, one is me and the other is Jiang Wei. If it is anyone else, it will be basically impossible to find it without thirty or fifty years. What I can guarantee is that if the surface development goes smoothly, , I can help you find the road to connectivity within ten years.”
"Why ten years?"
"It's not that I don't believe in the underground people, it's just that now even three-year-old children know that if they fall behind, they will be beaten. I am confident that in ten years, the comprehensive strength of the surface people will make a qualitative leap. By then, we will have the ability to compete with the underground people. Capital for negotiation. Only the stronger we are, can we increase the chances of peaceful coexistence."
"That's your consideration. Ten years is too long for me. This temptation is not enough, so I won't help you."
"Juecheng, don't forget that the Crusaders belong to Mr. Kong. How long will he be missing? No one knows. But one thing is certain, he will return sooner or later. By that time, if he finds out that the Crusaders are sitting back and watching the Chamber of Commerce split, If you still don't destroy Chu Ci even when you have the chance, what do you think he will do to you?"
Hearing this, Juecheng stopped holding the cup in his hand, and he seemed to be thinking about this issue as well.
Seeing that what he just said had some effect, Jiang Feng continued: "I know that you should be very powerful, maybe not inferior to me at all. But no matter how strong you are, can you compare with Mr. Kong?"
"Mr. Kong is indeed too strong, even better than Sister Ling'er... No, in short, he is very strong."
"Ling'er, who do you mean?"
"No, it's nothing, just people from the underground world."
"Could this Ling'er be your immediate boss?" Jiang Feng asked tentatively.
"She is not my boss. I am willing to work for her."
"Oh, then this Ling'er must be very beautiful, right?"
"She's beautiful, she's cute, she's very strong, she looks perfect."
"So you admire her very much?"
"That's not true. These are two different things. My feelings for her are not that kind of love." Juecheng immediately denied it.
"Okay, let's get down to business. Mr. Kong may come back at any time. If you do nothing, you will definitely be punished. For your sake and mine, we all have reasons to go together to destroy Chu Ci."
"You don't have to scare me. Such words don't threaten me at all."
"Really, even Mr. Kong can't threaten you?" Jiang Feng suddenly felt helpless.
"Unless he is in front of me right now, I will not consider helping you. If you want me to help you, then promise me to help me find the connection point between the two worlds. Apart from this condition, everything else is exempt."
Juecheng's words were decisive and he had no intention of backing down.
In the end, the negotiation broke up unhappily, and all the good food on the table was wasted.
It’s a waste.
Jiang Wei wanted to help his father share the burden, so he took the initiative to find Juecheng and tried to persuade him through that bit of friendship. But it turns out that friendship is a bit insignificant.
When Juecheng came this time, he actually didn't even ask about Tianpeng's affairs. He had only one purpose, and that was to hope that Jiang Feng would agree to find the connection point.
Jiang Wei, who failed to persuade her, returned to the dinner table dejectedly.
Jiang Feng and Liming were eating, and he saw Jiang Wei smiling.
"It's better to eat while it's hot. I specially asked someone to make it. It's very delicious." Jiang Feng pulled Jiang Wei to sit down.
"Dad, is there no point in our efforts to find Juecheng for so long?"
"In terms of meaning, there is still a little bit of meaning. At least it is now confirmed that Jue City is on the surface. In other words, the passage between the two worlds has not yet been found."
"What about Chu Ci and Chu Ge?"
"When I find some time, I'll take the time to go to Yinshan Grand Canyon."
"What are you doing there?"
"I won't be able to explain it for a while. Anyway, I'll go with you next time, and you'll know then."
"Oh, by the way, Dad, there is one more thing I must report to you."
Afterwards, Jiang Wei told Jiang Feng what was happening in Yinshan City and the cities in that area.
"Didn't expect such a thing?" Jiang Feng said unexpectedly.
"Dad, you should summon the man named General Kun right now. He knew about it but did not report it. This is concealing military information and should be dealt with according to military law." Jiang Wei said excitedly.
"Isn't this somewhat different from concealing military information?"
"Anyway, I'm almost mad. Do you know how miserable those people are? We citizens of Jiang Zhi's influence should have a high happiness index."
"Haha, it seems that you love the people very much."
"Dad, is it time to laugh now? Call General Kun over quickly. I want to question him. Why didn't he report what he knew?"
"Okay, okay, then I'll call him here. You decide how you want to punish him."
"I'll make the decision?"
"That's right, you are now much like an adult, it's time to learn to make the decision."
"Very good."
"Well, Dad, I have something else to do. You wait here. Someone will come with Kun later."
"good."
Afterwards, Jiang Feng left the banquet hall, and Li Ming followed. She quietly asked Jiang Feng: "Why don't you handle it yourself? Is it appropriate to leave it to Jiang Wei?"
"What do you think is inappropriate?"
"General Kun is a colonel after all. Even if an officer of this level is to be punished, shouldn't he have to go to a military court?"
"This is true under normal circumstances, but now we are on the front line. As long as General Kun cannot return to Wangcheng, he will have no chance to go to the military court." Jiang Feng smiled, turned and left.
"Ah?" Li Ming watched Jiang Feng leave and suddenly felt a little strange. It seemed that as his power continued to grow, he seemed to show more of a dictatorial mentality.
The legal nature of Jiang Zhi's influence is only valid in large cities, such as Wangcheng, Peicheng, etc. Once you leave these cities, there is no rule of law at all. Although Jiang Feng never killed anyone indiscriminately, he was no longer as gentle as before, the gentle way he treated life.
Just like the sneak attack on Ye Wuxue that happened not long ago. Li Ming knew very well that Jiang Feng was deliberately inactive and deliberately allowed Ye Wuxue to take advantage of him. Those tens of thousands of living lives no longer seemed so important in Jiang Feng's eyes.
