People in Terra, poor and weak but invincible

Chapter 869: The Test of the Grand Master

When Liang Xun and the others heard what the Grand Tutor said, they bowed and avoided the conversation. Ling also shook the wine pot and took his two sisters to the street to find wine to drink.

Qi Yan was surprised to see that the Grand Tutor was so proactive:

"You are the first Lao Deng who took the initiative to come to my nursing home."

Taifu:?

No, buddy!

I just wanted to talk to you alone, how come it's almost like I have to go to your nursing home?

Didn’t your math teacher teach you that there is a process?

Qi Yan didn't care what the tutor was thinking, he stepped forward and put his arm around his shoulder:

"You are already a big shot, and you are so proactive. For Old Wei's sake, I will give you a 15% discount. You don't have to thank me."

The Master swallowed the curse words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He raised his hand to slap Qi Yan's paw away, trying to keep his mind calm, and said:

"I'm not ready to retire just yet. I have something serious to talk to you about this time."

Qi Yan pointed at himself and said with a smile: "I am not a serious person, what serious things can you talk to me about?"

Tutor: "..."

He understood that he had really met a ruthless person.

When Qi Yan gets angry, he even scolds himself!

"Mr. Qi Yan, please stop joking." The Grand Tutor tried his best to keep his thoughts straight, "I have always been concerned about what you said before."

"What?"

"You said the time limit is running out?"

"Look, this is a misunderstanding." Qi Yan clapped his hands, and then spread his hands, "I just used riddles to scare Sui Lao Er, so the Riddler is really too evil.

I just said that Sui Lao Er wanted to learn from me, but he didn’t have the time. I didn’t really say that he would die… Taking a step back, when he is about to die, I will still do my best to protect him for the sake of the other Sui Beast agents.”

The Grand Tutor tried hard to absorb the meaning of Qi Yan's words.

He asked again: "Why do you collect these Sui Beast agents?

Could you please tell me a little about your plan, so that Yan Country can avoid conflict with what you are doing?"

“You guys are really weird.”

Qi Yan couldn't help but reveal an expression of 'old man, subway, cell phone': "I'm just looking for a giant beast and collecting some handsome men and beautiful women along the way. Is this also called a layout?"

Seeing that Qi Yan was not ready to speak, the Grand Tutor retreated to the next best option:

"On the next trip to Yumen, I can help you deal with the giant beast on behalf of Dayan, but I hope you don't take action in Yumen."

"Is there such a good thing?"

The Grand Tutor shook his head solemnly and said, "I am not doing this entirely to help you. I am also trying to prevent Wang from taking the opportunity to learn more about you in the dark.

He is very persistent and will never give up just because of your warning. Please don't be too careless. I hope that all the signs he has shown so far show that he is interested in learning various skills."

“It sounds quite inspiring.”

Qi Yan didn't care about it at all.

If we could really learn this skill from him, we wouldn't have to study how to replace the Sui beast. It would be much easier to just raise our arms and shout "I don't eat beef."

The Grand Tutor put his hands behind his back, knowing that Qi Yan didn't listen.

There was nothing he could do about it, he could only look up at the sky and appreciate the clear morning sky to soothe his mood.

After trying to calm his anxiety, the Master withdrew his gaze:

"If you really want to take the three sisters of Nian Xiling back to Rhodes Island, I will not stop you, and I am powerless to stop you, but Simuangtai needs to arrange personnel to monitor them in Rhodes Island."

"Zuo Le is a good choice." Qi Yan suggested.

"Ah."

The Grand Tutor agreed casually, and then said: "If Yan Country has a need, we will still contact them and make a deal. I want to inform you of this in advance."

When Qi Yan heard this, he was so angry that he laughed:

"You guys are just taking advantage of the three sisters' good words to get ahead of them. If they didn't have some good feelings towards Yan Country, they would have rebelled under your oppression and xenophobia."

"Do you have a favorable impression of Yan Country?"

The Grand Tutor obviously disagreed: "These agents' affection is not for Yan Country, but for the people they come into contact with."

"Are you going to separate the people from the sacredness of Yan State at this time?" Qi Yan mocked.

“No.” The Grand Tutor ignored the sarcasm in Qi Yan’s words and said calmly, “In my opinion, the people belong to Yan Country, but Yan Country is not just about these people.

The agents have established friendships with some people in Yan State today and are willing to be friendly towards Yan State, but what about a hundred years later, or a thousand years later?

When the agents suddenly come to their senses and find that everything around them has changed, will they still care about Yan Country? "

"You're thinking pretty far ahead."

"Because I sit in this position, because I am the Grand Tutor of Yan State."

The Grand Tutor looked directly into Qi Yan's eyes and said, "In fact, my attitude towards you is the same. You are relatively friendly to Yan Country because of Wei Yanwu, Lin Gerui, and Chen Huijie.

But when these people leave as time goes by, what attitude will you continue to have towards Yan Country?

Going a little further, I think your contact with Rhodes Island is also because of the people, not the island itself. When those people you are familiar with on Rhodes Island leave, will you continue to stay in Rhodes Island?"

Qi Yan's expression gradually became calm. He wasn't angry, but he also lost his usual cheerful expression.

The Grand Tutor knew that he had touched upon Qi Yan's displeasure, but he was not prepared to change his words.

"Old Deng, you don't seem to have much confidence in Yan Country." Qi Yan said indifferently, "The people of Yan Country can get along well with the agents now, but people in the future won't be able to do so?"

"People will always change. Our spirit will be passed down from generation to generation and will continue to evolve. As for you who have remained immortal in the passage of time, I cannot speculate."

The Grand Tutor's tone was equally calm: "Besides, even if every generation can make friends with the agents, I don't want to do that."

"Why?"

"The people of Yan should stand tall and be self-reliant. They don't need to rely on befriending any other entity to survive." The Grand Master said loudly, "In this land called Yan, the people of Great Yan are the only masters."

Qi Yan nodded: "That's a good point, but I think people only care about whether the vegetable prices have increased today."

"They only need to care about these things." The corner of the Taifu's mouth raised a trace of pride, "How to make Yan Country stable is what officials need to consider, how to make Yan Country prosperous is what the real dragon needs to consider, this is Yan Country.

If I could make the people of Yan State only worry about the rising and falling vegetable prices, why would I worry about the prosperity of Yan State?

Even though I know you won't like what I say, I still have to say that the survival of Yan Country never needs people like you who are high and mighty."

When Qi Yan heard this, he couldn't help but applaud.

The Grand Tutor couldn't help but feel dazed amid the applause, and the passionate emotions that had been brewing became incoherent.

"You're right. Yan Country is indeed different from other countries on this land. It's very special and excellent."

Qi Yan praised her generously, and then changed the subject: "But you really don't need to think so much."

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is... you misunderstood something." A smile reappeared on Qi Yan's face. "I said that Old Two would have a disaster in the future, and it wasn't just targeting a small fragment of the giant beast."

Taifu:?

Qi Yan smiled and said slowly: "In this land, there is probably no such thing as 'a thousand years later'."
