Chapter 165 You must dismiss that woman!
According to some idle egg-painful statistics, at least five million Chinese celebrate their birthdays every day. Among them, less than 2 million people invited friends to have a birthday party and ate cakes and longevity noodles, and it may even be even less.
Li Yi belongs to the group that doesn't have birthdays, even in the practice world, he doesn't have the habit of celebrating birthdays. After living for more than 5,000 years, it is impossible to celebrate birthdays every year, and sometimes birthdays pass with eyes open and closed.
The same is true for monks. The so-called birthday is not necessary unless it is a big birthday.
Li Yi feels that he has no problem with his birthday. If he makes this decision known to the regional leaders, he will definitely give a thumbs up and agree with it very much.
When the Spring Festival was celebrated at the beginning of the year, it was frightening. The government prepared a plan, and countless people in the system were not allowed to go home for the New Year due to certain events. Once the worst-case scenario breaks out, the government will try its best to control the scope of the two town-state-level conflicts, at least not to rise to regional conflicts.
Qin and Qi can be said to be the twin dragons of China, one with the highest military strength and the other with the highest economic strength. Once these two areas collide, it will definitely be a catastrophe.
The government definitely doesn’t want to, but Naihe has the ability to influence the will of the region. Sword Immortal is okay, commanding an army that doesn't listen to Qidi, but Flying General is different.
If one side wants to fight, the other side can only be forced to fight.
However, the above is the worst case, and the probability of occurrence is very small. Whether Shenzhou is chaotic or not depends on whether Shixian can give him enough power.
As for Li Yi's euphemistic refusal, the two of them were obviously unaware or selectively ignored.
【Dong Yunshu】: But I want to celebrate Brother Li's birthday.
[Wei Xi]: A husband may not celebrate his birthday, but a wife must remember it.
The message I sent looked very heartwarming, but it actually made it clear that I was coming. After all, another little **** will definitely go on Li Yi's birthday, and if he is not there, something bad will happen.
Just when Li Yi was in a dilemma, the rabbit next to him immediately offered his own strategy, saying: "You can say that you have a little feeling and prepare to retreat, and they will definitely not come to disturb you."
Retreat is very important for monks. Unless it is an extremely urgent matter, normal people will not disturb others' retreat. Just like the Taiyin Fairy did not dare to move yesterday, for fear that her breathing would interrupt her comprehension.
In this way, she can monopolize the fairy head by herself! Celebrate birthdays together, practice together, and quietly surpass the two tigresses.
Fairy Taiyin suddenly realized a new advantage of herself at this moment, that is, she didn't have any burden on her body. Unlike Wei Xi and Dong Yunshu, as the commander of the entire region, he is busy with government affairs on weekdays. It is impossible for a state-level town as Qidi to wait in Zhou forever.
In order to restore their strength, the two borrowed the power of society, and vice versa, they also need to give back to society. This restricts them to a certain degree of freedom, but many people can't ask for this opportunity.
As the commander-in-chief of the Qin region, Wei Xi was able to give such treasures as ginseng essence and heavenly fragments to Li Yi, which shows such a huge resource.
But Fairy Taiyin doesn't need these so-called cultivation resources, she just lay down on them in her previous life.
"Xianchang, these two tigresses must be fighting again when they get together, they are not as gentle and virtuous as me."
Li Yi shook his head slightly, and typed a reply [Okay].
Retreat is indeed a good excuse, but he doesn't bother to use this kind of lie. And once this kind of thing is discovered, it will definitely trigger a huge crisis of trust.
Their respective relationships maintain a delicate balance. Once they are partial to anyone, the whole situation will completely collapse. At that time, it will be even more difficult for Li Yi to maintain the current relationship. In the end, he may only use a more extreme method to bring the situation back to balance.
How to make them no longer have disputes?
Li Yi has already thought about this problem, and there is a perfect solution, which is to solve the problem itself. As long as you reject everyone, everything will naturally be solved.
With no point of competition, they will naturally be able to be safe by then.
But this is the last resort, the best way at present is to continue to follow the law of nature. Don't take the initiative, don't express your opinion, and don't favor anyone.
In fact, Li Yi still likes them to fight, it's better than a handful of loess in his previous life.
Seeing Li Yi shaking his head and refusing, Taiyin Fairy was a little disappointed, but soon said energetically: "Is there anything you want to eat for Xianchang's birthday? I'll make it for you."
"You can do whatever you want, I believe in your cooking skills."
"OK!"
Fairy Taiyin suddenly thought of something, and said, "Princess Immortal, I have a small request. Can you not reveal my identity at that time, and I will tell them that I am a maid."
"Are you so afraid of them? There's no need for me to be here." Li Yi looked puzzled, and the rabbit was really a little scared at ordinary times. But there are two extremes in the presence of myself, and the courage is pulled to a normal level in an instant.
"Xi'er and Yun Shu won't do anything to you."
"This..." Fairy Taiyin mulled for a second, then said pitifully, "I don't want to cause trouble for the elder."
In fact, she didn't want to expose herself so early, as the saying goes, the enemy is in the open and I am in the dark. Once he has confirmed his status as a maid, he can stay by the fairy elder's side openly and aboveboard.
If the other two knew about my relationship with the Immortal Elder in my previous life, the other two must try to drive me back to Zhao. Maids are different from competitors, they can't stay next to the fairy head all the time, so naturally they won't allow other people to stick with the fairy head all the time.
Fairy Taiyin substituted herself, thinking that she was thousands of miles away, and the fairy was flirting with other women. Just thinking about it made me so angry that I couldn't sleep, and a strong uneasiness welled up in my heart.
"What are you planning?" Li Yi looked at the other party suspiciously. Fairy Taiyin had tears in her eyes, and begged, "The rabbit doesn't want a title, can't the fairy chief satisfy me with this request? As long as you don't Just deny me."
Li Yi looked away slightly, the appearance of this rabbit can really arouse people's care.
"It's up to you."
"Thank you Xianchang!"

Qin Region, Flying General's Office.
Wei Xi was dressed in a neat and serious black military uniform, sitting on an office chair with a straight body, a spirit enveloped her all the time, and a faint fierceness made people dare not look directly at her.
She is like the spiritual incarnation of the Qin region, like a fierce tiger that is always on guard. The movements are like a precise and unmistakable machine, always performing its tasks efficiently.
Wei Xi's most frequent actions during the day are to move the mouse and click on files, use the landline on the desk to give instructions, and slightly bow his head in meditation.
Currently, what she deals with the most is about monks. The main reason is that besides fighting, he knows this aspect best, so he dares to deal with it. If Wei Xi were to manage the people's livelihood, she would not dare to mess with other matters except for loosening the people's ties and adding entertainment.
There are specialties in the art industry, even at the town level, there is no guarantee that it can match the bureaucratic system in governing the country.
All parts of China began to consider the public practice of exercises, and Qin had to plan for it.
"There is another rebellion in the Mohai area." Wei Xi frowned slightly when he saw that the resistance organization that had just been wiped out had recovered once again.
"Religion without secularization is a cancer to us."
Tang Ke said: "General, I suggest using a special force composed of monks to completely wipe out the area."
The emergence of monks has completely changed the current mode of warfare, and the difficulty of guerrilla warfare has risen sharply. Once faced with an encirclement and suppression team composed of monks, mortals alone cannot resist it.
"An extermination will still lead to resurgence. The key point is how to appease the people. The Qin law is harsh, and the mainland must be loosened first. But the Qin law is like a skyscraper, and even I cannot easily shake it."
Wei Xi rubbed the space between his eyebrows, turned off the computer, and took a short rest.
"It's my husband's birthday in a month, Xiaoke, what do you think I should give you?"
Tang Ke's expression was a little subtle when he heard this sentence, and said: "General, you only have the 100,000 yuan salary of last month under your name now, and you have nothing to give away except you."
The general is a real two-sleeved breeze, and all property comes from wages. When she helped the general buy gold bars before, she inevitably knew about the general's bank flow.
For so many years, almost no money has been used. The money in the bank can only go in and out, and the daily expenses are completely covered by the army. There are rows of military uniforms in the closet, and now there is no single room in the dormitory in the small villa, and I go to the cafeteria to eat.
Practitioners themselves are mostly pure-hearted and ascetic, and basically have no needs for material things.
Hearing this proposal, Wei Xi's eyes lit up slightly. This is a very good suggestion, and my husband should like it.
But the woman needs to be dismissed, otherwise this gift is unlikely to be given out.
How to drive her away?
———————
Qi Di, Tian Jianzong, the meeting hall.
The head of the Heavenly Sword Sect summoned all the elders today for the first time, and everyone rushed back from various regions as quickly as possible.
"It's the first time the suzerain has summoned us. Could something be wrong?"
"I don't know, but I heard from the Great Elder that the suzerain is about to break through, and it may be for this matter."
"If we can break through Nascent Soul, our Heavenly Sword Sect will be the number one sect in the world."
When the suzerain breaks through the Nascent Soul, many people can't help being a little excited.
Now the upper limit of the world is the Jindan stage, at most half a step of Nascent Soul. And some top existences actually already have the strength of Nascent Soul. For example, Sword Immortal's current strength is not weaker than the normal Nascent Soul Early Stage, or even stronger.
The problem now is that there is the power of Nascent Soul, but there is no mana to match it. In modern terms, there are guns but no bullets, and how many shots can be fired is a problem.
"With the strength of the suzerain, once you break through the Nascent Soul, you can break through the statue of the Holy Father."
"After the sword fairy is gone, how should Qi prevent possible riots?"
This sentence poured a bucket of water on everyone. The person who spoke was Elder Jin who was the only one who had not been to Jindan. As the government's spokesperson in Tianjianzong, he was even more worried about the stability of the region.
"It may take several years to retreat, and I am afraid that something will go wrong."
Qidi cannot live without a sword fairy, the truth summed up by countless riots. In today's era, there must be a powerful person who suppresses everything. It may not be used, but it must not be absent.
"this"
Other people are also a little happy to worry. It is normal practice to make trouble for the enemy at a critical time in retreat. Everyone knows the truth of killing you while you are sick.
Different from the separation of government sects in other regions, Tianjianzong and Qidi have now highly overlapped, and many important armed forces of the government are held by monks of Tianjianzong. This is mainly because the conflict with the reincarnated people first broke out in the Qi region in the early days, and they were under the greatest pressure, which also prompted them to carry out in-depth cooperation with the Heavenly Sword Sect.
It has been developed to the present day and has been indistinguishable from each other. The Heavenly Sword Sect is the powerful sword of the government, and the government is also the machine for the Heavenly Sword Sect to drive the society.
It is not always true who controls who, most of the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect are Qi people themselves. The emergence of monks only replaced the original ruling class. They were stronger and more capable, but it was just survival of the fittest.
Before everyone could think too much, they suddenly felt their hearts sink, and the sword at their waist trembled slightly.
A woman in a white Taoist robe with a cold face walked in, walked in front of them in one step, and appeared in the top seat by herself in the second step. Sitting down slowly, looking down at the people below with indifferent and clear eyes, the slightly pervasive sword intent added a touch of chill.
"I have a very important matter, and I want to ask you all."
Seeing the appearance of the Sword Immortal, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Something really happened.
Since the reincarnation, the Sword Immortal has never discussed anything with them, and it seems that the gathering of everyone today should be a breakthrough in retreat.
The Great Elder slightly cupped his hands and said solemnly: "Sovereign, it's okay to say, we will definitely do our best to help you. You must not have any scruples, I am not as talented as the suzerain, but I still have some strength."
Others also expressed their full support for the suzerain, so don't have any scruples.
Although the sword fairy retreat is very risky, the benefits are also huge. A top powerhouse at the Nascent Soul level can completely overwhelm the current world. Sword Immortals are basically unstoppable when they reach Yuanying. Living Immortals may be able to, but he is not in the scope of consideration.
"I have taken out many of the spiritual objects of the sect before."
"The suzerain doesn't need to worry, it can be allocated from the government." Elder Jin, who is in charge of finances, said immediately.
In any case, it is a great thing for Qidi that the Sword Immortal breaks through the Nascent Soul, and if he succeeds, he will be ranked first in China in one fell swoop.
Dong Yunshu nodded slightly, and said, "I'm relieved that way, Brother Li's birthday, I hope everyone can help choose a gift."
"Naturally?" The elder was about to agree, when he suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Dong Yunshu in a daze, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
Others are also confused, isn't it about the breakthrough?
You called us back just to pick out a birthday present for your little sweetheart?
"Sovereign, do you want us to choose gifts for the living immortals?" Elder Jin asked cautiously. After seeing the other party nod slightly, he wished to give himself a big mouth.
If breakthrough is the reason, Elder Jin will have no problem getting the government to provide resources worth hundreds of billions. He has plenty of money in the land of Qi, and the stronger the sword fairy, the more stable the land of Qi, and the greater the right to speak to the outside world.
A Sword Immortal in the Nascent Soul stage can generate more than trillions of dollars in income, even if the belt is tightened.
"Is there any problem?" Dong Yunshu showed some doubts.
"This." Elder Jin tried his best to say it tactfully, "If it's a gift from a living immortal, I'm afraid it can't go to the public account."
Choose the birthday gift of the living immortal, not a single official will give it. Although the opponent is a top-level power, if the content recorded in "The Road to Immortals" is not false, he might be even stronger than Sword Immortal. However, social resources are not personal property, and it is impossible to use regional finances to buy gifts for people.
Unless the Sword Immortal can bring back the Living Immortal, it doesn’t matter how much money the government pays.
Hearing this, Dong Yunshu's expression didn't change much, and he watched the other party quietly.
Elder Jin suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and continued: "Of course, the more expensive the birthday gift, the better. As the saying goes, the gift is light and the meaning is heavy, as long as you express your heart. And beings like living immortals should not like such vulgar things. "
"What did you say you want to give?" Dong Yunshu was as indifferent as before, unable to see emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy, which made people feel even more stressed.
"Would you like to send a kiss."
Saving money is important.
As soon as the words fell, Elder Jin fell into an ice cave, and the other elders stared at him, their eyes seemed to spew fire.
The suzerain being stepped on two boats has already made them beat their chests, and you kid actually let the suzerain kiss that guy?
finished finished
Dong Yunshu's eyes brightened slightly, he glanced at Elder Jin with admiration, and said, "That's very good."
But find a way to distract that woman.
—
One month later, Qingzhou company headquarters.
"Hasn't "The Road to Immortals" been updated yet?" Zhao Sibai sat on his office seat bored.
Qiangxian Road has not been updated for a month, which made Zhao Siwai impatient and eager to know what happened next.
"Zhao Zu, Lu Zu asked you to go to his office."
Suddenly a colleague came in and called him. Zhao Si responded and got up and left the office, walking towards Lu Haochu's office.
What did Lao Lu ask me to do? Did something happen to Brother Yi?
Came to Lu Hao's office, reached out and knocked on the door three times, and soon there was a sound from inside.
"Come in."
Zhao Si pushed the door open and entered. Seeing that Lu Haochu was buried in a pile of official affairs as usual, he knew that he should be dealing with the issue of monks tomorrow.
Recently, due to some mysterious people spreading the law among the people, there have been some monks who have not been recorded. And these monks are different from the past, they are not cultivating evil ways of kung fu, but the orthodox Taoist profound kung fu.
No crime, no murder.
The government has no reason to restrict the other party, but it cannot let it go. What Lu Haochu is doing now is to register files for these wild monks and plan for future surveillance.
A monk is equivalent to a person with a gun at all times. For the safety of ordinary people, necessary monitoring is required. Anyone who takes the hunter certificate must be checked frequently, not to mention monks who are more lethal.
As for the mysterious person who taught the Dharma, after many inquiries, I only know that he is called an old man who forgets the river.
The government was not too nervous about this or searched severely. Now Shenzhou has more confidence and calmer in facing the reincarnation than before. Even without relying on those high-end monks, the local monks trained by the government have already formed a certain combat power.
They are the main force to maintain social stability, and the power of reincarnation is more like a big killer.
Zhao Si did not disturb the other party, but sat on the sofa and waited quietly. After a few minutes, Lu Haochu finally took his eyes off the document, put down the pen in his hand, and rubbed his brows with a little tiredness.
"Zhao Si, the day after tomorrow is that person's birthday. Sword Immortal and Flying General should come, the higher-ups hope for you"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Si stood up from the sofa and said, "Farewell."
