Chapter 280: The Will of the Friend
"So, this is exactly why the two of us came to visit."
Yourenjun and Fengyuan Manye sat opposite Gu Sanqiu, with the aroma of tea wafting in front of them.
"Sir Ryukai, we hope that you can represent some of the samurai and convey our wishes to the shogunate or even the castle tower when participating in the selection and conscription order!"
Gu Sanqiu looked at the two people in front of him and felt the long-lost feeling of suffocation.
What does it mean to search for something everywhere but still not find it, only to find it without any effort?
That's it!
These two people actually came to me on their own initiative!
"I roughly understand the situation. Do you want me to rush to the front and be cannon fodder?"
Gu Sanqiu looked at his friend. This boy is really unkind. How could he do such a sinister thing?
"Strictly speaking, according to the information we gathered after arriving at Inazuma Castle, with your strength, Lord Long Hai, it would be difficult for you to be cannon fodder even if you wanted to."
Actors also need good acting skills. When the opponent really makes a killing move, this experienced warrior will definitely burst out in an instant and kill the opponent.
"Then what exactly do you mean by coming to see me?"
"We need to use your reputation to take the lead."
Fengyuan Manye said slowly: "Just relying on some reputation, you don't even need to show up, don't need to do anything, and there won't be any substantial connection."
"They're relying on my reputation, and you're still saying there's no real connection. Isn't that nonsense?"
Gu Sanqiu held his forehead with his hand: "This is why those big shots are keen on building their own reputation. In many cases, this is also a kind of tangible resource, don't you understand?"
"Okay, okay, how about we talk about compensation?"
The friend looked at Gu Sanqiu with a smile and said, "If you agree, I and my friends will serve you and become your right-hand men. How about this condition?"
? !
I quickly thought about whether I walked out of the door first with my left foot or my right foot. It seemed that my walking posture today was correct.
There is actually such a good thing!
but……
"Are you sure you are willing to work under one person?"
Gu Sanqiu could see that these two guys were not good people. Youshen was black-hearted, Wanye was shrewd, and both of them had a bit of the "wise but foolish" quality. Their seemingly illogical words contained many layers of meaning.
Old thousand-layer cake.
"One is thunder, the other is wind. Are you sure you can really work under me with your attributes?"
"Free wind, swift thunder, it would be strange if you could stay in one place peacefully and serve someone."
"No, no, no, sir, you are discriminating against the attributes of the Eye of God."
Friend Jun couldn't help but retort: "According to what you said, doesn't it mean that the water element is fickle and two-faced, the ice element is cold and unkind, and the fire element is hot and fierce and prone to making small mistakes?"
Fengyuan Manye quickly replied, "There are two other types. Could it be that they are the kind that floats with the wind and is on the wall, and the kind that is extremely conservative and old-fashioned?"
…
"I didn't say that. You two just made it up. And the adjectives I used were not the same as yours."
It was just a polite remark, because Gu Sanqiu really couldn't think of how to respond to it.
Admit that the rock element is extremely conservative and old-fashioned?
The heavens and the earth shook—and then they were gone.
Got it!
"No, the earth carries all things and gives birth to all living things. It is the foundation of the heavens and the earth. This is indisputable."
The friend was stunned, then looked at Gu Sanqiu cautiously.
"Do you have any relatives or friends who possess the Rock Elemental God's Eye? If so, how about I help you punch my friend and stop him from saying bad things about the Rock Elemental?"
Seriously speaking, they are now asking Gu Sanqiu to do something for them. What if they make him angry and he doesn't help them?
Judging simply from his identity and the ease of meeting him, Gu Sanqiu is already the person with whom they can most easily establish a relationship.
…
My goodness, if you are not a close friend who you have known for many years, you would never say such things to your face.
“Ahem.”
Wan Ye was also shocked by his best friend's words, and secretly made up his mind to find an opportunity to stab him after he got out.
"Sorry, I made a slip of the tongue. Personally, I also like the rock element, which is the foundation of all things in the world. It's a pity that I have already obtained the Eye of God of the wind element."
…
What a good move!
And it would be a real shame if you two didn’t do crosstalk.
Manye is at least serious, but his friend's brain doesn't seem to be normal... he seems a bit stupid.
"I roughly understand the reason and purpose of your coming here, but are you sure you want to do this? To be honest, it's not easy."
Gu Sanqiu said seriously: "And to be honest, even if you raise the banner, there will definitely be more people who think you are unreasonable and even hostile."
"Not everyone in the world can see far ahead. Most people are short-sighted. Apart from education, the main reason is that they don't have enough knowledge of themselves."
"To be clear, I don't think highly of your actions."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "Such an action is of no benefit and will easily attract hatred to myself, so why should I do such a thing ?"
"In order to awaken those short-sighted people, are you willing to have your back riddled with holes?"
"To be frank, I don't think they are worth saving."
First, this is Inazuma, not Liyue.
Second, he did feel that not everyone in the world was worth saving.
"I understand, sir."
My friend is sitting upright with a serious expression.
"Before I came here, Wan Ye said that there might be something fishy about this policy. There is even a possibility that they will arrest us and assassinate us in batches after the storm over this policy has passed."
"For wandering warriors who have no relatives or friends, there is no need to cover up the cause of death, because no one will care where or how they died."
"But I don't want to. Even for us , we have our own pursuits."
"Even if it means paying the price of my life in the end, I will do my best to shine with my own brilliance and dispel the haze that still exists in everyone's hearts!"
Yourenjun said seriously: "Perhaps from now on, some people are not worth saving. This idea was correct in peacetime."
"But Inazuma is not peaceful right now, and many people are forced to find a way to survive."
"Good guys and bad guys, that's what we think after peace, but right now, Inazuma is just barely still in a state of clarity under the suppression of the general."
"Whether it is good or bad, we will discuss it after peace is achieved. I am willing to control the thunder with the long sword in my hand and become the first ray of light that breaks through the chaos!"
Whether it is good or bad, should we discuss it after peace?
Very interesting remarks, and this person’s mind and beliefs are even more interesting!
Yourenjun looked at Gu Sanqiu with burning eyes.
"I wonder if you have ever heard of Wuxiang's Knife?"
"That knife may not be out of reach!"
The corner of Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched.
Here it comes, classic metaphysical remarks!
