Chapter 31 Huang Rong and Guo Jing's Surprise!
However, at that moment, a commotion outside successfully attracted their attention.
"You little thief, you've stolen my steamed buns twice, and now you dare to steal again! This is outrageous!"
With that roar, the two looked out the window.
I found a fat, overweight boss grabbing a beggar's right hand.
This beggar was different from ordinary beggars. Ordinary beggars have dirty faces, messy hair, and a foul stench.
Although this beggar was dressed as a beggar, you could see that his skin was very smooth and delicate.
Huang Rong!
Li Ke immediately recognized who the beggar below was; clearly, it was Huang Rong dressed as a beggar.
So Li Keyun used the Golden Goose Skill, jumped out of the window and gracefully descended, looking quite dashing and elegant.
Upon seeing this, the passersby who had surrounded the fat shop owner and the beggar immediately shut their mouths, not daring to offend them.
Just look at Li Ke's appearance, and the way he landed after using his lightness skill was obviously different from ordinary people.
It's obvious at a glance that he's a martial arts figure they shouldn't mess with, and this young Taoist priest is clearly quite skilled; he's a master!
"I am Li Zhiguang, a third-generation disciple of the Quanzhen Sect. I wonder if you would be so kind as to let this young lady go? I am willing to pay three times the compensation."
Upon hearing Li Ke's words, Huang Rong looked at him with a surprised expression.
What's up with this young Taoist priest? Why did he save her, especially knowing she was a woman?
"So it's Master Li from the Quanzhen Sect. Since Master Li is the guarantor, there's naturally no problem."
Upon hearing the name of the Quanzhen Sect, the fat boss didn't dare to cause any trouble.
He had no choice but to obediently accept the one tael of silver that Li Ke handed over, give him change, and return it, not daring to actually take the three times the compensation.
"snort."
With a soft hum, Huang Rong glanced at Li Ke and then turned to leave.
"Miss, you look hungry. How about we go up for a couple of drinks?"
Hearing Li Ke's words, Huang Rong's surprise grew, and then a slight smile appeared on her lips.
"Okay, I'm actually hungry, but I don't eat secondhand food."
"Of course, there is no problem at all."
Li Ke smiled and said something, then walked upstairs.
He was thinking about how to get Huang Yaoshi, the Eastern Heretic, to teach him the Finger Flicking Skill and the Azure Sea Tide Melody through Huang Rong.
The first thing to do is absolutely not to deceive Huang Rong.
After all, Huang Rong was too clever. Deception was useless against such a smart girl; any subtle expression or movement would expose the truth.
Rather than offending Huang Rong and being disliked and ostracized by her after the truth is revealed, it's better to be honest and open about it directly.
After all, there's a saying that goes, sincerity is the greatest weapon; only when you are sincere to others can you reap sincere rewards.
Upon arriving at the table, Li Ke introduced the two men.
"Miss Huang, this is Guo Jing, a disciple of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan. He comes from Mongolia and just arrived in Zhangjiakou today."
As he spoke, Li Ke continued his introduction with Huang Rong nodding gently:
"This is Huang Rong, one of the Five Greats, and the daughter of Huang Yaoshi, the Eastern Heretic."
"Are you really a member of the Quanzhen Sect? How did you recognize me?"
Huang Rong asked, puzzled.
Since running away from home a few months ago, Huang Rong has never revealed her name to the outside world.
People might know her surname, but they would never know her given name.
Moreover, this guy named Li Zhiguang was actually a Taoist priest of the Quanzhen School.
If she remembered correctly, the relationship between the Quanzhen Sect and her father was not very good because of the Nine Yin Manual and the imprisonment of Zhou Botong.
To some extent, the two sides are hostile to each other. It's already quite good that they didn't start fighting immediately after meeting.
"The reason I recognized you is because I have awakened my innate wisdom."
Therefore, I know many things, which you might see as prophecy.
After thinking it over, Li Ke decided to tell the truth.
After all, for a smart girl like Huang Rong, deception is useless; the truth will be guessed sooner or later, so it's better to be honest and open about it.
"Innate wisdom? Prophecy? How is that possible!"
Huang Rong shook her head slightly, speaking with a look of disbelief.
I wonder how such things as precognition and prophecy could possibly exist in this world.
Furthermore, Li Ke claimed that his innate wisdom could achieve a level of prophecy that was even more incredible than awakening innate wisdom.
"Don't believe me? Then you can test me."
Upon hearing this, Huang Rong immediately became interested.
So she rolled her eyes and asked:
"You said that after you awaken your innate wisdom, you will be able to do something similar to prophecy."
"Then tell me, among the Jin, Song, Dali, Western Xia, and Mongol dynasties, which one will unify the world in the future?"
"The Mongol Empire, or more accurately, the Yuan Dynasty, which separated from the Mongol Empire after its division."
After hearing Li Ke's answer, Huang Rong thought for a moment.
Among all the forces that have been discovered, the Mongols certainly had the highest probability of unifying the world.
However, at this moment, Li Ke gave the follow-up answer in a deep voice.
"During the process of unifying the world, the Mongol people believed in the principle of 'If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created it.'"
During the Mongol conquest of the Western Xia, Jin, Song, and Dali kingdoms, and the unification of China, approximately 6000 million people died in this war of unification.
Some died of starvation, some of famine, or others from war casualties or massacres!
Upon hearing Li Ke's words, the scene fell into a deathly silence.
Just because Li Ke looked like he wasn't lying at all, as if he was very sure that his prediction was true.
Could it be that Li Ke really possesses the ability to predict the future?
The moment the idea popped into her head, Huang Rong immediately shook her head vigorously.
How could this world possibly awaken innate wisdom, and how could it possess prophetic abilities after awakening innate wisdom?
This is definitely a scam!
Thinking of this, Huang Rong's eyes darted around, and she asked with a smile:
"Since you say that Mongolia will unify the world in the future, then tell me how long Mongolia can maintain its dominance."
"In 80 years, because 'the rule of the barbarians has no hundred-year fortune,' the rule established by bloodshed and violence, without cultivating virtuous governance, will one day suffer the backlash of bloodshed and violence."
Moreover, after conquering the world, one always wants to enjoy oneself. Otherwise, what was the point of the Mongols' hard work and struggle? Naturally, it was for indulgence and enjoyment.
This indulgence in sensual pleasures naturally led to a decline in the fighting strength of the once mighty Mongol cavalry, which eventually became unable to suppress the world in less than a century.
Thus, the saying "A stone man with one eye stirs up the Yellow River and the world rebels" began a new cycle of the pattern of "the world, after a long period of division, will unite; after a long period of unity, will divide."
The chaotic era ended when the Ming Dynasty was officially established, characterized by "no marriage alliances, no vassalage, no tribute, the emperor guarding the nation's gates, and the monarch dying for the state."
Unfortunately, the cycle of "the world, after a long period of division, will unite; after a long period of unity, will divide" that occurs every 300 years is beyond human control.
Ultimately, the Ming Dynasty fell to the Jurchen Later Jin, until the cry of "The Chinese people have stood up!" was uttered.
It completely ended the emperor system and the feudal dynastic system based on "the rule of the family," and replaced it with a socialist model where "the people are the masters."
Hearing this, and seeing Li Ke's complex expression and emotions, the two of them were stunned.
Judging from Li Ke's expression, he didn't seem to be joking.
Did Li Ke really foresee events hundreds of years in the future, predict the development of the world over the next few centuries, and know the ultimate outcome?!
Upon realizing this, both Guo Jing and Huang Rong's eyes widened in shock.
