Courtyard House: Why is my time-travel experience so shabby?
Chapter 1214 The First Person in the Light and Dark Worlds
In the evening, deep in the Aneger Mountains, in the lair of the Viper Cult.
The sun suddenly sank into the dark clouds in the west, and the sky suddenly darkened.
In the jungle outside the temple, Leech and Masar were not in a hurry to enter the temple, and their conversation continued.
At this moment, Marsal was questioning with a dark face:
"Shuizhi, the evil spirit is now in Tianzhu territory. If we rush over here, won't we just walk into a trap?"
While asking the question, he looked around a little nervously, as if Du Weiguo would suddenly drop from the sky in the next second and chop off his head.
He was full of confidence during the first confrontation at Lake Lugano, but in the past six months, he was chased by Du Weiguo all the way, with no way out.
At this moment, Marsal was completely frightened. If it weren't for the new leader, Leech, who held him back, he would never have dared to face Du Weiguo again.
Hearing Masar's question, Leech glanced at him expressionlessly and replied:
"Why, Marsar, are you afraid?"
Being hit in the heart of the matter, Masar was a little embarrassed. His brows knitted tightly, and he said in a muffled voice, trying to save face:
"It's not a question of whether I'm afraid or not. I just don't want to take meaningless risks."
Leech curled his lips in disbelief: "How can it be meaningless? Aren't we looking for reinforcements now?"
"Strong reinforcements?" Upon hearing this, Masar was immediately frightened:
"Is this the strong support you are looking for? What use are these Indian monkeys? They can only play tricks and deceive those country folk who can't even read."
Pointing at the dilapidated temple gate not far away, Masar continued:
"Look at these poor ghosts. Even their nest has become so rotten that they probably have trouble even getting food. Do you still expect them to deal with the evil spirits?"
"Are you making me laugh, Leech?"
As the saying goes, brothers look down on each other. This old wall lamp of Masar specializes in the oblique teaching business, and there is a chain of contempt in their industry.
The best ones are naturally Catholicism, Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism, which can be spread throughout the world and are the so-called famous sects.
They can use the name of some gods, Buddhas, or Heavenly Father, stand in front of the altar surrounded by halo with a sanctimonious look, and make money openly.
The next level are the large sects that occupy several countries or even one country. Their styles of behavior vary, some are good, some are evil.
The Indian religion and the Illuminati religion that Marsal had previously been involved in belong to this category.
The worst are those local small religions and sects, most of which usually use some crooked means to defraud money.
The ending is often extinction or being labeled as a cult and directly wiped out, even if they are just preaching honestly.
There is no way. The religious industry is very competitive. There are too many monks and too little porridge. Being weak is the original sin.
Of course, the scale of the Hu religion was not actually small. It had expanded to several countries and even had five dioceses. It could be considered a medium-sized sect.
However, the Kui sect usually hides in remote areas such as India or Central Asia, which are backward regions.
The key point is that their actions are treacherous, cruel and shameful, and they are doing business that is not what they claim to be, so they are unknown.
As for the Church of Light led by Marsal, its diocese is in relatively developed Europe. It was once very powerful, and even men with mustaches were believers.
What's more, Marcel himself is the Pope, so when facing the Viper Cult, he naturally has a strong sense of superiority.
Leech glanced at him meaningfully and said in a faint voice:
"Marsal, I think your thinking is rigid. You should learn more about Chinese culture. Chinese people are actually very wise. They have many proverbs that make a lot of sense."
Masar sneered, with a look of deep contempt on his face:
"Chinese? Those yellow monkeys with pig tails on the back of their heads?"
"Hehe~ What? In your eyes, except for the white race, are all other races monkeys?"
The leech was amused by him:
"Masal, times have changed, you should put away your arrogance and the so-called inexplicable sense of superiority of the white people.
Don't forget that the evil spirit is a Chinese. This yellow-skinned monkey you mentioned has now become a nightmare that you dare not face."
Masar was severely stimulated by these words. He suddenly rolled his eyes and growled in a suppressed voice:
"Damn Mark! Damn the evil spirits, damn the Chinese. So, leech, what the hell did they say? To make you kneel down and lick my ass without any dignity?"
These words were extremely harsh, but Leech's voice remained calm, his tone neither hurried nor slow, his emotions terribly stable.
"There are many. For example, this saying, 'You can't judge a person by his appearance, and you can't measure the depth of the ocean', is very applicable to the current situation. You should be able to understand the truth behind it, right?"
Masar snorted and kept silent with a gloomy face, but Leech continued to speak without caring:
"Masal, do you know that just a few days ago, the Viper Cult sent only a few priests to create a shocking scene in Persia?
Not only did they kill the Governor and the General of England, they also killed thousands of people, turning them into a zombie army. They confronted the Sha Shen, who was led by the Sha Shen himself, head-on and defeated him twice in a row!"
Leech raised two fingers, and a rare hint of gloating and mocking tone appeared in his voice:
"Masal, these are things that neither you nor I can do nor dare to do."
"You, are you telling the truth?"
Marsal's pupils trembled and he was dumbfounded. He was shocked by the news and could not believe his ears.
It was no wonder that he was so surprised. Ever since Leonard died of a cold, his channels of information had been basically cut off.
In fact, the Church of Light led by Marsal has not completely collapsed, but it is almost there.
The high-level and middle-level leaders in the sect, as long as they are well-informed in the dark world, know that he is being hunted all over the world by the evil spirit, and his life or death is unknown.
These people are often the smartest ones. They join the Church of Illuminati just for the money and have no loyalty at all.
Seeing that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, they all ran away with their money and changed their jobs.
As for the believers at the middle, lower and bottom levels, they are basically ordinary people who only listen to one side and believe everything. They are confused and know nothing and cannot be relied upon at all.
As an old rival who had fought against Du Weiguo many times, Marsal knew too well the value of the Vi Sect's record.
If what the leech said was true, then this Viper cult was simply outrageous!
You know, the Sha Shen group led by Sha Shen himself has almost never been defeated since their debut. No, not almost, but never defeated.
Not to mention the distant past, just in Moscow, in order to deal with Du Weiguo, Leonard mobilized Citibank's most elite supernatural force, the Avengers.
And the power of the entire Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, even at the risk of turning the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union into a hot war, they blew up the Kremlin!
It can be said to be a last-ditch effort!
What was the result? The Avengers were completely wiped out, even Mikhail, the head of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, was killed, but Du Weiguo didn’t lose a single hair.
The invincible reputation of the God of Death was established through such incredible victories one after another.
Therefore, the victory of the Kui Sect was particularly rare, breaking the myth of the invincibility of the evil god, not to mention that it was a winning streak, which was simply unbelievable.
Leech nodded firmly:
"Of course it's true, Masar, do you still dare to underestimate these Indian monkeys? Although the Kui Cult is low-key, they are real.
Moreover, they are ruthless and reckless in their actions. Anyone who dares to confront the evil spirits head-on is our most precious ally."
Marsar was completely convinced: "Okay! Leech, you are the boss now, you have the final say."
"Squeak~" A harsh friction sound was heard, and the door of the temple suddenly opened from the inside.
Then, a figure slowly walked out of the gate. He was very tall, and his whole body was hidden in a gray cloak, so his face could not be seen.
The strange thing is that even though it is still daylight, his figure seems extremely blurry, both real and illusory, and it seems as if he will disappear at any time.
Leech's pupils shrank into needle-like shapes in an instant, and he said in a serious tone: "We've been discovered!"
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Saint Georgetown, the capital of Guyana, Su Li and Guo Fu received a very special visitor.
David, the chairman and CEO of Citigroup Chase Bank, is called David Rockefeller. David is the youngest son of the third generation of the Rockefeller family, although he is neither the eldest son nor the head of the family.
But he was the most outstanding and capable of his generation, and the famous JPMorgan Chase Bank in later generations was founded by him.
Due to certain historical and political reasons, the Rockefeller family has no head of the family in this generation, and the six brothers and sisters in three generations are in charge of their own business.
However, decades later, after David's death, his daughter Peggy became the fourth-generation head of the Rockefeller family.
Now, Peggy is still a 19-year-old beautiful young girl, and she also came with her father this time.
At her age, she is full of passion and curiosity.
She was too curious about the God of Death, who was worshipped as a god, known as the number one in both the light and dark worlds, and a living legend.
In fact, she was mainly attracted by the fact that she heard that Du Weiguo was very young and handsome.
In the spacious and bright reception room, Su Li showed a standard fake smile on his face and spoke politely:
"Mr. David, St. George already has Citibank. There is no need to set up a Chase Bank."
David is 53 years old, a thin middle-aged man who looks very energetic. He is no more than 40 years old and looks very young.
In fact, David had six heart transplants in his life and lived to be 6 years old, making him the longest-lived billionaire in Citigroup's history.
Hearing Su Li's polite refusal, David shook his head and said:
"No, no, dear Mr. Su, this is very necessary. Citibank is a Masonic property, and Chase Bank is mine personally."
Citibank is a private bank. Its current major shareholders are members of the Freemasons, among whom the Rockefellers and the Sassoons are among the shareholders.
As for Chase Bank, the Rockefeller family held 87% of the shares, and David personally held 59%, which, when rounded off, was approximately equal to his private property.
Su Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a teasing tone: "So? Is this an internal fight among your wealthy families? Or is it an internal fight among the Freemasons?"
David explains:
"Neither. In fact, we, the Rockefeller family, have decided to reduce our holdings in Citibank until we have completely eliminated all our shares."
"So, Mr. Su, my intention to set up Chase Bank in Saint Georgetown can only be regarded as normal business competition."
"Hmm?" Su Li's eyes narrowed.
Su Li was experienced, insightful, and quick to react. He almost instantly understood the implication of David's words: the Rockefeller family was going to break off completely with the Freemasons.
The Rockefeller family is not of Jewish descent, but they are the earliest members of the High Table of Freemasonry and one of its earliest founders.
Before and after World War II, a large amount of Jewish capital poured into Citibank, which was also facilitated by their family.
Su Li's eyes narrowed, and his gleam of light flashed. He did not hide anything, but asked directly:
"The Rockefellers are going to quit Freemasonry?"
David was also very straightforward. He did not hide anything but admitted it openly.
"That's right, Mr. Su, you are very perceptive. We, the Rockefeller family, have indeed decided to withdraw from the Freemasonry."
Upon hearing this, Su Li's face immediately darkened, but before he could say anything, Guo Fu spoke first.
"So, you, the Rockefeller family, are determined to stand against us? And you are here today to declare war?"
Guo Fu's tone was cold and rude, like an icy blade.
Her wounds had healed, and as the "Joan of Arc" of Quiana, she spent almost the entire day in the military camp.
The long period of military life made her darker, her skin a healthy wheat color, and she looked more fierce, like a sword drawn from its sheath, with its edge fully exposed!
You know, the Rockefeller family has a grudge against Du Weiguo.
Leonard, who had colluded with Marsal and almost killed him with a pineapple, was the illegitimate son of the Rockefeller family.
Gibson had already sent these messages to Guyana early in the morning. Guo Fu had a tough personality and a clear distinction between love and hate, so she didn't shoot him directly, even though her self-control had greatly improved recently.
"No, no, no!" David waved his hands quickly and explained anxiously:
"Ms. Guo, although we had some minor misunderstandings and frictions with Mr. Wesley before, those were all personal wishes. We, the Rockefeller family, have absolutely no intention of opposing you.
We earnestly hope to develop in-depth cooperation with you in many fields. I came to St. George's today with full sincerity~"
Guo Fu interrupted impatiently:
"Don't talk nonsense! Everyone knows that the Freemasons are protected by the God of Evil. If you break with the Freemasons now, aren't you just slapping us, the God of Evil, in the face?
To us, you are either a friend or an enemy, especially you Rockefellers. I am happy to meet you on the battlefield!"
David was stunned by this unreasonable theory.
But before he could organize his words to reply, his beloved daughter Penny spoke first:
"Ms. Guo, I think your conclusion is too naive and too arbitrary!"
Peggy has brown hair, brown eyes, fair skin, a high nose, and a nice figure. She is a typical Western beauty. Her voice is also crisp and clear, and quite nice to hear.
"Peggy!" David quickly spoke out to stop her, but he was a step too late.
After being blatantly refuted, Guo Fu's face suddenly darkened and a dangerous light flashed in her eyes.
"Little girl from the Rockefeller family, you call me childish and arbitrary?"
Peggy was not afraid of Guo Fu, and she stiffened her neck and said sharply:
"Ms. Guo, my name is Peggy, Peggy Rockefeller, and I'm not a little girl either. I'm 19 years old, the same age as you!"
Guo Fu's actual age is only 18, but according to Chinese rules, she exaggerated her age by one year. She also hoped to appear more mature, so she always reported herself as 1 to the outside world.
Guo Fu suddenly stood up from the sofa, took a few steps towards Peggy, and asked word by word with an increasingly cold tone.
"Did you just call me childish? Arbitrary?"
As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Peggy was a tough girl. She also stood up and looked at Guo Fu without showing any weakness.
"That's right, it's both childish and arbitrary. Although the relationship between you and the Freemasons seems close, it's actually just a collaboration of interests.
Can't we, the Rockefeller family, cooperate with you to gain benefits? We are here today with sincerity."
She kept talking quickly and harshly, like a machine gun, and didn't give Guo Fu any chance to refute.
"Our family is not in line with the philosophy of Freemasonry, and there are even serious differences and conflicts in interests.
We Rockefellers are essentially businessmen. Why should we lose huge profits to maintain a binding relationship that is doomed to be wrong? "
She was telling the truth.
Because the two former and current presidents of the Freemasonry, Charles of the Rothschild family, and Bern Perez were successively killed by Du Weiguo.
The new president he supported, Akira Sassoon, and his faction, which was closely tied to his interests, and the other faction represented by the Rockefeller family, were incompatible in terms of ideology. The worst thing was that they had conflicts of interest.
Originally, the Rothschilds and the Perez family were trying to mediate the conflict, but now the conflict has completely intensified and they can no longer work under the same roof.
The split of Freemasonry is inevitable.
Currently, the Rockefeller family has gathered other elite families in the same camp and is preparing to establish a new interest group. They have even thought of a name: the Illuminati.
Paige is on fire at this moment:
"Don't you Chinese have an old saying that says don't put all your eggs in one basket? Diversifying your investments and betting will only benefit you~"
"Shut up, did I give you face? You even gave me a lesson!"
Guo Fu could no longer bear it. She was so angry that she subconsciously reached for the pistol at her waist.
David panicked and quickly stood up in front of Peggy, stretching out his hand to stop her:
"No, no, Miss Guo, please don't be impulsive. Let's talk it out. Even if you want to fight or kill us, you should at least listen to the conditions we bring, right?"
Su Li held Guo Fu's arm:
"Xiao Fu, when two countries are at war, they don't kill envoys. Let's hear what they have to say first." (End of this chapter)
