Siheyuan: Struggle in the Red Era

No matter what happened to the fifth brother in the end, Lin Baoyan is doing fine now.

According to Wu Zhi, the three of them have now been separated from the general category of time travelers, so from now on, whenever they talk about time travelers, they are referring to the others starting with 'Fang Daming'.

"Travelers as cooperative and obedient as the three of us are now extinct, so of course the higher-ups will give us separate spots."

Wu Zhi was playing with a sharp knife.

Yes, from Fang Daming to Lao Wu, no one is willing to cooperate honestly. Either they are like fools, thinking that they are the protagonists and everyone is an NPC, completely ignoring laws, regulations and moral norms, and doing whatever they want. As a result, they made a big mistake and were severely punished by the higher-ups. Now they are miserable. Or they are self-righteous, thinking that there is no evidence for what they did, and the higher-ups can't do anything to them, so they stubbornly refuse to confess, and will soon be severely punished.

Although the higher-ups quickly cracked down on the black market this time to prevent Lao Wu's information from leaking, they were still a step too late. They did not prevent enemy spies from passing on Lao Wu's information in advance.

Of course, the higher-ups don’t really care about this.

There is no need to worry about too many lice. With the previous "Fang Daming" incident, what Lao Wu did is just to make some people more certain of the fact that immortal cultivators exist. This also saves the higher-ups the effort of fabricating illusions everywhere.

Sure enough, after that, the drunkard and the lighthouse started to make more small moves and frequently asked for various negotiations.

Because the record of 1 victory over 17 teams was still standing there, Lighthouse did not dare to make any military threats. It just visited everywhere, throwing out one trade agreement after another and painting a sweet pie in the sky, and quite a few people were tempted.

The drunkards used the technology and equipment provided by them in the past as bargaining chips, as well as the various food and drug transactions opened up in recent years. Under the double pressure, they did have quite a few pro-Russian people sent to support them.

As for nuclear deterrence, neither of them dared to really talk about it this time.

Twice, twice, twice I discovered that there really are people in this country who can control the world in their sleeves. So, this country really does have the legendary immortal cultivators.

They also made up for the knowledge of the legends and strange stories here, and knew that the world in the sleeve was just a space spell, and they had never seen real offensive spells.

No, the previous explosion in the mountain might have been caused by an offensive spell.

The people in this country are too cunning. They say that nothing exists and it is impossible, and that you should believe in science, but they secretly search for signs of immortality and conduct experiments everywhere.

If they had not cooperated with the Kuomintang and provided funds to the spies who were ambushed by the Kuomintang before their retreat, allowing these spies to move around and provide information, they would not have known that these cunning guys were secretly searching for the fairy mountain and might have found the ruins. They have even trained a special force of soldiers who can fly over eaves and walls.

However, the special forces soldiers and super power laboratories that they have spent huge amounts of money to train have not produced any results, or perhaps they have been researching in the wrong direction.

Although they have been promoting Western-centrism for hundreds of years, and even now almost everyone in this country has believed this lie, they themselves know that the true source of civilization is in this country.

These immortal cultivation civilizations that have emerged now cannot rely on their own exploration, and in the end they have to use the methods their ancestors used hundreds of years ago. They have to deceive the so-called literati of this country into buying this newly emerged civilization at a suitable price, and then study it themselves, and then change its appearance and make it into the legacy of their ancestors.

Unfortunately, the means this time are not very effective. The ruling party of this country is different from their ancestors, and the money offensive is not effective at all.

The two sides refused to give up and continued to visit everywhere every day, trying to win over people. They also had a lot of push in their own country, pushing the ruling party to frequently show goodwill to us internationally.

There are indeed too many traces of elixirs of immortality in the legends and strange stories of this country.

This proves that there are indeed cultivators in this country, and indirectly proves that this country has elixirs of immortality.

Who in this world doesn't want to live forever? Especially those bigwigs who have power and money.

For various reasons, the city has been particularly lively recently.

If things are not going well above, all kinds of city foxes and rats will emerge below, and the pressure on public security will be enormous.

At this time, it is really good for Lin Baoyan to hide here. As long as she doesn't get unlucky enough to be involved in other people's cases again, and doesn't get lured out under the guise of making friends, there will basically be no major danger.

So, when Wu Zhi came back this time and heard that Lin Baoyan was almost kidnapped, he was not angry at all. He knew that Lin Baoyan had been training for a year, and under normal circumstances, as long as she didn't take it lightly, there would be no big problems.

After chatting for so long, Lin Baoyan felt a little hungry.

The half watermelon she had just eaten had been digested by now. However, she was too lazy to kill a chicken and cook in the space, so she prepared some noodles to fill her stomach. She asked casually, "By the way, it is said that there are three of us. Since Xiao Li left No. 95 Courtyard, I haven't seen him. How is he now?"

Wu Zhi's fingers flew, and the knife kept turning in the air. He said nonchalantly: "That's what engineering students are like. They have endless experiments and classes every day. Now, there are only a few hairs on their heads. Unlike me, I still have a full head of hair."

As he spoke, he shook his head proudly, and his jet-black hair swayed with the movement.

Lin Baoyan looked at the top of his head and said with a smile, "Now is not the future. Shampoo does not have so many additives, and daily food does not have a long list of ingredients. Without these chemicals, if you eat healthily, everyone will have beautiful hair when walking. There is no worry about hair loss in the future. Even if Brother Li uses his brain very well, he will not be bald at a young age."

Wu gave her a blunt look and said, "Baldness is hereditary. He has bad genes, so he is bald at an early age. No matter how safe and healthy the food is, it will be useless."

Lin Baoyan touched four eggs, waited for the pan to heat up, poured oil into the pan, and prepared to fry the eggs. After hearing this, she cracked the eggs and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. If you're bald, then so be it. It won't affect your health anyway. By the way, how many fried eggs do you want? Two is enough."

"Two are enough. Give me less noodles. I can eat one bowl at most." Wu Zhi took out another small knife. The two knives flew up and down in the air, leaving cold and sharp lines that made Lin Baoyan's eyes hurt.

But she didn't say much. After frying the eggs, she added water to the pot and took out half a pound of noodles to prepare to eat.

Although she had never asked in detail, Lin Baoyan still knew that Wu Zhi was probably taking the route of military strength. He often went out for several months, probably to carry out missions in various places.

He and Brother Li are both pretty good. One takes the research route, and the other takes the military route. Both routes are very promising, and judging from the current situation, they are irreplaceable.
