C702 A Gentleman Should be Righteous in His Heart

Asking questions?

Hearing Cao Jianzhou's words, Lin Bai's heart couldn't help but jump. In China, this phrase would probably make more people think of a popular game. However, in Lin Bai's ears, it caused his heart to pound even harder. Even he wanted to jump off the car and never look back.

However, the car had already entered Zhong Hai. Not to mention the disturbance caused by jumping off the train, just the fact that he didn't have a pass to get in and out of Zhong Hai made it so that the soldiers guarding nearby would catch him and punish him severely.

"Brother Lin, why are you sweating? Did I say something wrong?" Looking at Lin Bai's expression, Cao Jianzhou could not help but be filled with doubts.

Lin Bai smiled bitterly as he shook his head. He did not say anything, but the thoughts in his mind kept changing. If what happened next was really as he thought, then he really needed to prepare himself and think of a proper answer.

Seeing that Lin Bai did not respond, Cao Jianzhou did not pursue the matter. After driving the car to the Cloudwater Pavilion, he stopped the car and pointed to the pavilion beside the water. He whispered, "The old man is waiting there for you."

Although it was the middle of summer, the water cloud pavilion was incomparably clear and refreshing. Moreover, there were many lotus flowers planted on the surface of the lake, the petals were beautiful and the fragrance of flowers overflowed, causing one to be unable to help but feel relaxed and refreshed from the bottom of their hearts.

Although this was not the first time he had seen such a broad view of his back, Lin Bai still couldn't help but feel excited. In his heart, he couldn't help but admire those Imperial Advisors who had accompanied the monarch during the ancient times.

"There's no need to be so restrained, just sit here. There's only the two of us here, and there's no need to be so formal. Just treat us as our own elders." Seeing Lin Bai's restrained appearance, that person couldn't help but laugh out loud. He waved his hand, indicating for Lin Bai to relax a little.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai finally relaxed a little. He found a stone bench and sat down, but he didn't dare to sit fully on it. He only sat on half of his butt.

I've heard everything about Jin'ling from Chief Shen, so I have to thank you. I believe you know about the things in Yan Jing as well, there are some things that I have no choice but to do, don't take it to heart. When you return home, tell Old Master Liu to be more forgiving. Upon seeing Lin Bai take his seat, the man said gently.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai shook his head repeatedly as he replied, "I'm fine." One must know that with this person's identity, there was no need to explain anything to him, much less apologize. If he were to continue acting like how he always was, ignoring everything else and smiling in agreement, that would truly be being unwise.

"I heard from Bureau Chief Shen that the culprits who messed up Jinling haven't been captured yet, right? What's your next plan?" Seeing Lin Bai's expression, the man did not say anything more and changed the topic to a matter that happened in Jinling.

Hearing that, Lin Bai said seriously, "After these two days are over, I will do my best to find their whereabouts and bring them to justice! Kaifeng, Xi'an, Yan Jing, and Jin'ling were all in chaos. If we can't get rid of these evil people, the people will not allow it, and the law will not allow it. "

These words were not a lie, but the truth. Not only that, they had also tried to use their venomous hands on their own family members more than once. If they did not take advantage of Jin'ling's defeat to pursue them, they might cause trouble for themselves. In the future, they might even cause trouble.

"If you have any plans, it's naturally for the best. If you need anything, just contact Cao Jianzhou. He will try his best to help you." The man nodded.

Lin Bai agreed without any hesitation. Although the art of phase change was extraordinary, in the eyes of the national machine, it was not something worth looking at. In a sense, the decision that Cao Jianzhou had made represented this person's attitude. If he could get his help, then he would be able to do things much more smoothly and with twice the results with half the effort.

"According to common sense, since you've done so many things, I should reward you a bit. However, your status is special, and those two Liu family elders have also just recently advanced. If you continue to advance, there will inevitably be gossip." After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the man looked at Lin Bai with a smile and said, "If you have any requests, feel free to say them. If it's met, I'll do my best to fulfill it."

Hearing this, Lin Bai's eyes lit up, but in the blink of an eye, his face revealed a bitter expression. As this old man had said, the Liu family had long since reached the limit of what they could bestow. They couldn't seal a noble king like they did in the ancient times, and their own identity was extremely special, so they couldn't act rashly. The fragrant biscuit was right in front of him, but there was no way for him to eat it. This was what Lin Bai called a 'difficult' person!

Perhaps it was because he saw Lin Bai's predicament, the person today did not utter a word and only smiled as he looked at Lin Bai. He wanted to know just what kind of regulations Lin Bai would be able to come up with after a long struggle.

"Old man, since you asked, I won't be polite anymore. Can you get me some status as an unofficial member, such as a member of some organisation like the dragon group?" "This way, when I go out to do things in the future and am unable to contact brother Cao, I can do them a little more cheaply." After pondering for a moment, Lin Bai finally had an idea. He rubbed his head and chuckled.

Back then in Mao Mountain, he had read some novels about the Dragon Group, or other countries and recognized members of mysterious organizations. That kind of overbearing attitude really moved him. Now that he had such an opportunity, if he didn't take the opportunity to bring it up, when would he?!

"Dragon group?!" "Where did you hear that? There's never been an organization like that …" After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Although Bureau Chief Shen is with us, the matter with the Divine Abilities Bureau cannot be made too public. How about this, an unofficial member of the National Security Ministry will be given the status of vice minister?"

The Ministry of National Security?! Sub-division? These words had completely blinded Lin Bai's mind. All of the Chinese people knew what this department was for, and the amount of energy they represented was terrifying!

"However, I have a request. After I give you this identity, you cannot use it unless you have no other choice!" Are you satisfied with this identity? " Looking at Lin Bai's agitated expression, the middle-aged man slowly added.

One must know that even though Lin Bai was an outsider, he was still treated as a real vice minister. If Zhang Yang were to go out, who knows how many people would be disappointed.

"Satisfied, satisfied!" Lin Bai chuckled as he nodded his head. He was not an idiot, how could he not think of the twists and turns in this situation? If he were to be too flamboyant, it would only take a minute for his identity to be reclaimed. Although he couldn't show off in public now, he would be more than happy when the time came!

"As long as you're satisfied." The current person looked at Lin Bai's agitated expression and laughed. He then continued, "Now that you can be considered a member of the government, can I ask you something that only you know?"

Upon hearing these words, the smile on Lin Bai's face vanished as he tensed up. There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. The dessert had already been given to him, and he probably only wanted to tell him to spit out some secrets. However, Lin Bai prayed incessantly in his heart, hoping that the old man wouldn't ask about the matter that he had guessed on the car.

After pondering for a long time, the smile on the old man's face completely disappeared, leaving behind a somewhat hesitant, yet somewhat expectant expression. He softly said to Lin Bai, "I've also heard quite a few legends about your sect, and I know that all of you are proficient in yin and yang arts. I wonder if you, Lin Bai, can see just what the future holds for China?"

In this past year, whether it was inside or outside of China, a lot of things have happened. Although under the operation of the national machine, everything was resolved safely, in the end, it still caused this person to feel a little lost. He wanted to know just how far China would go in the future.

Damn, he really guessed correctly! One had to know that all the people in the martial arts world understood one thing: fortune and misfortune could be predicted, dragon veins could be severed, but national destiny could never be predicted. One had to know that this was a divine tool of the world, and it involved 1.3 billion people, so how could it be extrapolated?

From ancient times until now, those who dared to infer the fate of the country would not end up well. Li Chunfeng was killed because of the Back Pushing Map . From ancient times until now, there had been too many such matters. How was Lin Bai supposed to explain?

"I don't know if you remember the allusion in 'Analects of Revelation'?" After muttering to himself irresolutely for a long time, Lin Bai finally spoke. However, he did not directly answer this question. Instead, he asked a question in reply.

Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, that person furrowed his brows. After which, he stared at Lin Bai and asked, "Don't say anything, do you have a strange power?"

"I cannot speak of or dare to end the matter of the New Country. "However, I only know one thing. A gentleman should have a righteous path in his heart." Lin Bai nodded when he heard this. Then, he said each word in a deep voice, especially the last seven words, which were incomparably grand.

"What a gentleman!" It's not the sky that counts when it comes to things, so there's no need for you to ask! " The man was stunned when he heard this before laughing heartily.
