In the circles of powerful people throughout the ages, there is a rule that no one can avoid, and that is the pursuit of immortality.
If a technology can be related to immortality, then the rich and powerful will pursue it like moths to a flame.
Li Fan suddenly mentioned this, but he deliberately provoked this topic and let Yang Yan do whatever he wanted.
As expected, she first thought of the magic of immortality.
Even a cat like her is like this, so how will the people around her understand it?
As for Li Chuan himself.
What he thought of was not some magic of immortality, but the meaning of human beings themselves.
"If that's the case, it means that humans are nothing more than demons to the world."
Li Fan couldn't help but close his eyes and imagine such a scene.
In the market, vendors are selling their goods, pedestrians are everywhere, young men in bright clothes and angry horses are strutting through the market, and children are playing on the roadside.
Suddenly, the screen flashed.
It's still the same market, the same street.
Vendors are hawking, pedestrians are everywhere, young men in bright clothes and angry horses are swaggering through the market, and children are playing on the roadside.
It flashed again, and it was still a familiar scene.
Day after day, year after year.
Until he traveled through time, the world environment had already been completely different. The vendors hawking changed into shops along the street, and the pedestrians turned into busy traffic.
Flowers are similar every year, but people are different from year to year.
Many things have changed, and people have long since disappeared, but the core things remain the same.
Three meals to satisfy one's hunger, food and clothing, prosperity and wealth...
Countless people just want to have food and clothing, and they miss their little girl, with tall buildings and good land, rich but not powerful, and they seek official positions. They are small and humble, and they climb up the ladder. They are very popular, they want to ascend the throne, and become emperors. I also ask for immortality.
If you exclude the factor of "human beings" and condense thousands of years of history into a few minutes of fast images, you can find a shocking discovery that all kinds of matter in an area automatically gather together and become regular in a terrifying way that defies entropy. Orderly, many buildings are condensed "out of thin air".
Just like the changes in the sea, but this time, it is a change of reverse entropy, a miraculous workmanship of "human beings".
"This is what people are like."
When Yang Ju saw this, she was angry and amused: "What happened to you? You have become so arrogant."
"It's nothing, it's just something I feel."
Li Chuan shook his head and drove away the images in his mind.
"By the way, the matter of your entering the Baihua Tower's treacherous domain to solve the problem of the watchman has been reported to Heaven. Commendations and rewards will be given soon."
After talking about the strange realm, Yang Yan told Li Fan one more thing.
Since he was born into a powerful family and had been promoted to eight levels in a row before, it was hard for him to increase his real power this time. However, for some reason, the reward was unexpectedly stingy and was given away with just one rare treasure.
In addition, there is the privilege of wearing a flying fish suit.
When Li Fan heard this, he was quite dumbfounded.
He doesn't care about the qualifications for wearing uniforms.
But thinking that sometimes, this qualification can indeed bring some benefits, I accepted it.
Even if others want it, it is still difficult to get it.
Although the Jinyiwei of the Daqian Dynasty and the Zhenmosi who were born out of the Jinyiwei were both emperor's personal soldiers, not everyone could wear the Feiyu suit. They had to have such a special permission.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t value it, it’s valuable if others value it.
…
A few days later, in the lobby of the Zhenmo Division Beiya.
Li Huan walked in under the guidance of several department officials, and saw all the department officials and deputies, as well as most of the hundreds of thousands of households under his command.
Among them were many people from the honorable circle, but more of them came to watch on their own after hearing about his deeds.
This time, the fire in Xingdaofang alarmed the whole city, and when everyone was helpless, Li Chuan stepped forward to solve the incident, which indeed brought glory to the entire honorable circle, and made great contributions to the country and the people.
He is not an unknown person, but his reputation has greatly increased, and everyone above and below him has discussed it.
At the same time, some people who had not paid much attention to this matter began to notice him.
"This is Li Chuan, the young master of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion..."
"You look so young, you haven't even reached your first year yet, right?"
"Indeed, it is indeed true that he is worthy of becoming the first emperor of the country after Duke Wu Ning..."
Li Jian, the ancestor of Li Jian in this life, had made great contributions to the country and the imperial court. He was also famous in the outside world as a top powerhouse and could be called a queen of a famous family.
But for two consecutive generations, they all inherited the map in a mediocre way and became a conservative generation.
His reputation has begun to wane somewhat.
Scenes like this began to awaken people's memories of Li Jian, the former Marquis of Wu'an.
Many people were talking quietly and standing still to wait and see, wanting to see what the rumored Li Ao looked like. However, when they saw the appearance of a handsome young hero, they all couldn't help but be delighted and secretly praised him.
"Lord Governor, please!"
The clerk also moved out of the way with admiration, highlighting Li Kuan's position.
Li Ao walked in with his head held high.
Guo Tunan, the Duke of Zhenguo, walked down and said with a smile: "Guanyun, you are indeed a young hero. I saw you right."
He patted Li Fan on the shoulder, summoned his attendants, and personally took the flying fish suit as a reward from the palace and put it on him.
Li Chuan hurriedly said: "How dare you use your labor to control the Duke of the country?"
"It doesn't matter, this is the honor you deserve." After he said this, he lowered his voice and said, "We and the people of the Holy City will remember what you did, and the Holy One will also remember what you did."
He also vaguely felt that the so-called reward was a bit low. It seemed that the superiors wanted to suppress it and deal with it in a low-key manner, so he specially comforted Li Wei.
This is quite a bit like doing good deeds without worrying about the future. Draw some cakes for him to satisfy his hunger and keep working hard.
This gifted uniform originally belonged to the Jin Yiwei, but not all soldiers and generals can wear it. At least those of his rank can only enjoy it if they have made meritorious service or are favored by the Holy Family.
Of course, Li Fan's parents and ancestors already had it, but as a junior, it is indeed enough to be proud to win such an honor with real achievements, not relying on favor or patronage.
It is said that people rely on their clothes. Normally, Li Chuan's clothes are also very expensive and gorgeous, but they are far less eye-catching than this kind of gifted clothes with the authority and blessing of the imperial court. For a time, he actually showed his prowess and impressed many senior officials present. They all nodded secretly.
Li Chuan was secretly amused, but also thoughtful.
It seems that Emperor Delon's strategy this time is to reward with honor instead of real power.
If a young nobleman like himself cannot be recognized by him, it is not necessarily a good thing to suddenly rise to a high position. It is better to reward him with the honor of a hero.
But nowadays, with the resurgence of weirdness and more and more incidents, it is simply a crime to hide one's capabilities and bide one's time and do nothing.
It is necessary to balance the relationship here and find a way to do something practical without arousing Emperor Delon's vigilance.
