You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?
Chapter 313 Wu Hui's Insights
"boom!"
There was a dull thud, and the skinny monkey was hit hard on the head again.
The blow was quite severe, and he grimaced in pain. He covered his head tightly with both hands and squatted on the ground in agony.
Wu Hui, who was standing by, was so angry that he shook his head and shouted angrily, "Look at what you have accomplished! What kind of person are you?!"
The skinny monkey felt aggrieved and stood up indignantly.
He stared at Wu Hui with wide eyes and questioned him: "Brother! I support you wholeheartedly and treat you as my own brother. I put you in my pocket and you kicked me into the ditch!"
"Such a large sum of money is enough for the two of us to live comfortably for ten lifetimes. Why do we have to give it away?"
Wu Hui looked at the skinny monkey's innocent and indignant look and couldn't help feeling helpless.
He sighed deeply and did not answer the question immediately.
Instead, he walked to the corner, slowly squatted down, and leaned his back against the cold wall.
Then, he reached out from his waist and pulled out an old pipe, put it in his mouth skillfully, and took two deep puffs.
He then slowly began to explain: "This money...we simply can't spend it."
"What? Why can't I spend it? This is Liang State, the legendary Immortal Dynasty! Could it be that they are as ignorant as I am and don't even recognize spiritual stones?"
The skinny monkey opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.
Hearing this, Wu Hui couldn't help but twitch his lips.
He said angrily: "If the whole Liang State were as ignorant and stupid as you, it would have been destroyed long ago!"
At this time, a thin man as thin as a monkey followed him and squatted in the corner.
Seeing that the other party was listening so seriously and attentively, he slowly spoke.
He began to explain in detail in a calm and steady tone: "It has been two days since we set foot on this land. During this time, what do you think of the people here?"
Hearing this question, the skinny monkey paused for a moment and thought for a moment before answering:
"In my opinion, the people here are much stronger than those in our Yun Country!"
"The people here are not snobbish at all, and they don't look down on outsiders like us. To be honest, I really like this place!"
However, Wu Hui shook his head gently and said thoughtfully:
“Often, only those at the bottom of society and in a low position would reject outsiders.”
"After all, for them, every newcomer may mean competing with them for resources and survival opportunities..."
"That's why when we arrived, it was like we were taking their jobs away."
Having said this, Wu Hui raised his head slightly and looked into the distance, as if he could see through the wall in front of him and see somewhere farther.
His face gradually became solemn, and a hint of melancholy unconsciously appeared in his originally calm expression.
There was even a vague and barely perceptible sense of fear.
After a while, he continued softly, "But Liang State is completely different... Across the vast Qiyang Continent, ordinary people like you and me are pouring in like a tide."
"The reason is simple. It is because here, wealth and power are not the ultimate goals of life. What really makes countless people yearn for is the unattainable road to immortality!"
After a pause, Wu Hui took a deep breath and continued, "All the common people who come here are actually silently supporting the people of Liang."
"No matter how hard we work here and how much money we earn, in the end, nearly half of our wealth will quietly flow into the pockets of the Liang people."
"So, in their eyes, we are just like the oxen working hard in the fields, or the horses pulling the carts."
"As long as they can gain benefits from us, they will naturally be grinning from ear to ear!"
When the skinny monkey heard this, his originally long and narrow eyes widened wide, and his face was full of unhappiness.
He suddenly stood up, put his hands on his hips, and shouted at the top of his voice: "What is the basis for this? We worked hard to do all this work, what right do they have to take away half of it for no reason?!"
However, before Shouhou could finish his words, Wu Hui reached out and pulled him back with an impatient look on his face.
At the same time, he shouted fiercely: "Stop yelling here! If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who will do it!"
The skinny monkey was stunned for a moment after being yelled at by Wu Hui, but the dissatisfaction in his heart did not subside.
At this time, Wu Hui continued, "Don't forget, this is Liang State! Even if those high and mighty immortals come here, they will have to bow their heads and submit to this powerful dynasty!"
Wu Hui's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, leaving the skinny monkey, who had been so aggressive just now, speechless.
He stood there blankly, opened his mouth, but finally squatted down in disappointment and said no more.
Seeing the skinny monkey calm down, Wu Hui nodded with satisfaction.
"Moreover, if ordinary people like you and me were to walk around in a place like this with such a large sum of money, I'm afraid we would be dead even if we could take it!"
At this point, Wu Hui emphasized, "If we dare to expose this money to the public, I'm afraid tomorrow morning, we will become two cold corpses lying on the street!"
After hearing what Wu Hui said, Shouhou's face turned pale as paper.
He stared at his elder brother with eyes wide open, full of horror and disbelief.
He stuttered, "Ah...Brother, didn't you say before that everyone here is rich? How come someone would want to take advantage of our little money?"
Facing Shouhou's question, Wu Hui glanced at him sideways with annoyance.
He snorted coldly, "Humph, who would complain about having too little money? When the benefits far outweigh the risks, there will naturally be a lot of people willing to do it!"
"Especially for people like us who have just arrived in Kyoto for two days!"
He said this with a serious face, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and fear.
"In this prosperous and huge capital, we are just like two insignificant specks of dust."
"If you die here, I'm afraid you won't be able to create even the slightest ripple!"
"For them, adding our two bodies is just a common occurrence."
"In this vast continent, corpses are everywhere. Our heads are a profitable business with no investment!"
