Chapter 545: Differences Among People
Facing the tide of wild beasts below, the city encountered this time is smaller and has weaker defense capabilities, but the beast tide is even larger.
"There is also a beast tide below, be careful, I will drive the boat to the base first, there should be support inside, you pay attention." Zhang You warned.
Li Shiwei still didn't care much, very relaxed, and even said with a smile: "Don't worry, there are only six eighth-grade wild beasts below, and none of them is as strong as the first one. Although the scale is large, it is not as good as that time. The number is only a little more threatening to these natives, and it makes no difference to me~."
After speaking, she patted Zhang You: "Don't worry, I will go down and teach these wild beasts a lesson."
"It's not about the wild beasts, I want you to pay attention to... casualties. The beast tide is not dangerous to you, but it is very dangerous to the people of the hunting sea world below. The wild beasts are unintelligent and ignorant, it's just a natural phenomenon in this world, but the people below... are alive." Zhang You couldn't help but said so.
"Hmm? Of course I know they are alive, otherwise why would I save them?" Li Shiwei tilted her head, looking puzzled, and looked quite cute.
However, she stretched and said, "Okay, it's all over the place, I'm going to save people, a hero is coming!"
She made a gesture with a laugh, and then jumped directly from the flying boat.
Zhang You looked at her back and sighed.
She could feel that Li Shiwei still didn't regard those people as "alive".
In Zhang You's opinion, Li Shiwei should think that these people are NPCs? They think they are just games, and they are passers-by on the road to pursuing their goals.
Li Shiwei doesn't care about their lives or their words. Li Shiwei just wants to do what she wants to do and enjoy the current sense of achievement.
But what can she say?
She didn't dare to go down to fight, and her strength was only a little stronger than those eighth-grade beasts, far inferior to Li Shiwei.
Zhang You is a very weak person. Although she knows a lot of things in her heart, all her actions are almost based on preserving herself. She actually prefers to live a daily life on the boat, rather than being dragged down by Li Shiwei to do such tasks.
She knows that those people are alive... so what?
Knowing but not doing is the same as not knowing.
This is what her grandfather told Zhang You.
But... Grandfather practiced martial arts. When he was young, he was brave and fierce. He dared to fight against the seventh-grade beast, so he suffered a lot of hidden injuries. After he got old, his blood and qi were exhausted quickly. He failed to break through the seventh-grade at the peak of the eighth-grade. His path was cut off and he finally died of old age.
It was because she saw the decayed appearance of her grandfather when he was old that she refused to practice martial arts and instead practiced Taoist skills. She also hated fighting and dangerous life.
However, looking at the battle below and seeing those soldiers, she still felt... a little bit reluctant.
If she couldn't bear it, then don't bear it. What else can she do? She could deal with an eighth-grade beast, two was barely enough, and three would be at a disadvantage.
Unlike Li Shiwei, it was only a matter of time before she wiped out all the wild beasts below. These beasts could not hurt her at all.
Zhang You looked down, sighed, and drove the flying boat towards the base in the city.
No matter what, she still didn't want to... No, it wasn't that she didn't want to.
She was afraid.
In contrast to Li Shiwei's lack of reverence, she was afraid of all conflicts.
The two young people had their own characteristics, but they also made their own choices.
The flying boat flew over the battlefield, and the two friends made different choices, so they passed by each other.
Li Shiwei fell below. In her opinion, although it was a bit disgusting, whether it was the broken limbs or the corpses of wild beasts, they didn't feel real.
To be honest, it was disgusting, but it didn't look real, so she didn't feel any psychological pressure.
For the little bastard, there was no real feeling.
How to say it... It's like you heard that there was an 8-magnitude earthquake in a small country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, with countless casualties.
Maybe they will sigh, maybe they will use this as a topic of conversation, but...does anyone really think this is terrible, and do those dead and injured people feel pity?
It can even be said that even if you feel pity for those people...so what? Can you imagine the faces of any of the victims in your mind? Do you know their stories? You feel pity, but what do you pity?
Is it the victims "imagined" in your mind, or do you really pity each of the specific people who were actually injured and died?
This is a very interesting point.
Does anyone really... have a "real feeling" for these people?
When people see their parents or ancestors die of old age, they may have a feeling of death and a sense of suffocation, but when they see tens of thousands of people die in the distance on the news, they may not have any fluctuations.
This is the case with Li Shiwei.
She has no real feeling for the natives of the hunting sea world below.
Now, she likes this feeling of being a hero.
——————————
As for Li Qi, he lives his daily life as usual, doing what he should do every day.
However, he has one more thing to do in recent years.
That is, every year, the Chamber of Commerce would make a report on Li Shiwei's affairs and tell him about it.
Li Qi would not interfere with Li Shiwei's choice, but he was still curious about what kind of success this little brat could make outside.
He knew very well that Li Shiwei was not a genius or a monster.
He, Li Qi, is not considered a peerless evildoer in the world, and the children he gives birth to are just a little bit better than ordinary people. Li Shiwei, no matter in terms of character, IQ, or aptitude, is actually of the highest rank in the world, but she is far from a true genius. Not even close.
Of course, this difference is far from that of the Wushan Goddess Yao Ji, or the Demon Prince, the Little Heavenly Master, or Liu Junyi.
These people have good minds and deep foundations, their understanding is as good as cheating, and their qualifications are hard to describe. Li Qi estimated that he might not be able to compare with them in terms of understanding and qualifications.
As for his foundation and character... Li Qidu was far inferior to them.
Speaking of character alone, Li Qi has been troubled by his 'courage' so far and doesn't know how to be firm. However, the Demon Prince and the Little Heavenly Master did not waste time on this at all. They are real super geniuses with perfect character. He is wise and courageous and will not be hampered by such things at all.
But no matter what, Li Shiwei is much stronger than most people in the world, and even most of the world outside the territory, and her starting point is much higher.
The little bastard is actually very bad-tempered, impatient, enthusiastic but also very impetuous.
I remember the original stone, the jade body was locked in the rock, it was because he laughed at Li Shiwei, so he was kicked away by the furious Li Shiwei and broke into pieces, and then he was able to break out of the stone.
Although it was a blessing in disguise, it was enough to show what kind of temperament Li Shiwei had.
With such a personality, Li Qi was really worried that she would cause some trouble outside, so he still had to ask her carefully and analyze the specific situation.
After all, she is her biological child. Although it is natural to let her go out and explore, if something goes wrong, the rabbit can eat Li Qi alive.
None of them chewy.
Li Qi was a little surprised when he read Li Shiwei's report for the year.
This is quite...well, how should I put it?
It's pretty peaceful.
Li Qi thought that Li Shiwei would cause some trouble, but in the end he spent his first year very peacefully, which was pretty good.
Is it the credit of that good friend named Zhang You?
Yes, friends can also influence her. From the report, Zhang You is a calm person. The two of them should complement each other, right?
Good thing, good thing.
"What are you looking at?" At this time, Rabbit appeared from behind Li Qi and looked curiously at the paper in his hand.
"Shi Wei's situation." Li Qi didn't shy away from it. They were an old married couple, so there was no need to hide anything. Li Qi basically had no secrets from Rabbit, and Rabbit did the same to Li Qi.
It only takes a few decades for a mortal couple to reach a tacit understanding after living together. The two of them have already spent twice as much time as mortals, so naturally there will be no more coquettish behavior.
"Shi Wei's situation? Let me take a look." Rabbit reached out, took the report from Li Qi's hand, and then read it carefully.
Soon, she finished reading it, but her expression was not very good.
Shen Shuibi let out a long sigh: "Oh, she is still..."
"Isn't this a good performance? What's more, it's only been out for a year." Li Qi said with a smile.
Yes, I've only been out for a year.
Li Qi seems to have become accustomed to the time concept of immortal species. A few decades ago, Li Qi was still suffering from the difficulty of time, feeling bored and even afraid of repetitive work day after day, lasting for decades or even hundreds of years. .
For a mortal, if you tell him that you have to continue to move bricks for seventy years, the mortal may want to kill someone, his mind may collapse, and he may rather commit suicide than move bricks.
But for immortal species, let alone seventy years, seven hundred years is just that.
For example, Li Qi's current world of human life is extremely complicated. Every time he has a new understanding and wants to join the operation of the existing small world of human body, he has to sort out all the past. This process takes at least ten years. He had to shut himself inside the stone door and spend all his time doing this.
Only today did he understand that this is the real "retreat". It is actually just taking some time to complete the daily work of practice, but this "daily" time will be longer.
It grows to a point that is unbelievable to ordinary people.
After reading the report, Shen Shuibi knew her daughter's appearance very well, and shook her head: "In Shi Wei's situation, I think it won't be long before she is tired of things on the ship, and by then she will probably go to those worlds. If you pursue your goal, you will be in danger. Do you want to go outside the territory? Or I ask Yang Ning to keep an eye on it to avoid any accidents. There are too many powerful people outside the territory, and you and I are only fifth and sixth grade. What are we really going to do? Almighty, I’m afraid there will be a lot of trouble.”
"There's no need. She's not stupid. Although she's still young, she's not domineering and rude, and she won't offend others. Besides, if she really offends others, it only means that she deserves a beating and a lesson. Bad things." Li Qi smiled, not caring about these things at all.
Although Li Shiwei is irritable... or lively, she is still polite, and Li Qi believes that she will not have any arrogant thoughts.
That's enough, let the children go on their own.
Shen Shuibi frowned, but didn't say anything.
After all, it's only a year. What can be done in a year? Let's wait and see. When the report comes, if it still doesn't work, even if Li Qi doesn't go, she will have to remind Yang Ning.
——————————
In the Sea Hunting Realm, Li Shiwei and Zhang You successfully completed the task.
Not only did she complete the task, but Li Shiwei also gained a lot of reputation. She is one of the few members of the Chamber of Commerce who is willing to help the natives of the Sea Hunting Realm for free.
Moreover, even if someone was willing to lend a hand before, they were not as strong as Li Shiwei.
Li Shiwei is really strong, which makes the natives of the Sea Hunting Realm open their eyes.
Because during the one month of the mission, perhaps it was luck, Li Shiwei actually met the legendary beast tide master, a seventh-grade wild beast.
There are only four or five seventh-grade wild beasts in the entire Sea Hunting Realm, and Li Shiwei actually met them.
Facing the seventh grade, even Li Shiwei is very difficult.
Moreover, the Chamber of Commerce's attitude towards this seventh-grade beast is "don't care", because the Chamber of Commerce has a continuous supply of wild beasts, and the significance of the existence of the Sea Hunting Realm is actually these wild beasts.
If the wild beasts are directly eradicated, the Sea Hunting Realm will directly change from a resource world to an ordinary seventh-grade world, and its value will be greatly reduced, and the loss will be considerable.
The seventh-grade world is a very precious thing even for the Chamber of Commerce, so it even transmitted a voice across the air and told Li Shiwei not to kill the wild beast, and did nothing else.
This is really flattering the little bastard. She was almost crippled by the seventh-grade cultivator. Fortunately, Zhang You overcame the fear in his heart at that time and appeared in time. The two joined forces to repel the wild beast.
After all, the wild beast has no mind, and it will naturally retreat when it is hurt. Otherwise, the natives of the Sea Hunting Realm would not be able to hold on for so long without a seventh-grade cultivator.
After that incident, Zhang You was seriously injured, but Li Shiwei was unharmed thanks to the protection of the stone. Fortunately, she had enough medicines on her body, so Zhang You did not have any sequelae.
The two besties have truly become friends of life and death.
Moreover, compared to those, the gains brought by this accident are even greater, that is, Li Shiwei felt... some kind of opportunity of the seventh rank.
She seemed to be able to hear vaguely... the call of a world, a kind of worship for her.
Her reputation has reached the peak in the hunting sea world.
If these worships are refined at this moment and used as the foundation of the Tao, maybe you can step into the way of the gods!
However, Li Shiwei easily crushed this idea and cut off these worships directly.
It is meaningless, she does not want to become a god.
However, she still gained something.
That is... she thinks that being a hero seems to be very good. Will she play like this in the next world?
