Marvel Superheroes in China

"..."

Once the scene had completely quieted down, Chen Baima said calmly, "I didn't mean to extort you. I had Wu Sanlong bring 50 billion to buy the Golden Drum Hammer from you. If you think it's a loss, we can talk about the price. After all, that Golden Drum Hammer is useless to you... What did you say I would extort you for?"

Qin Wu was stunned.

Five hundred billion?

He stared wide-eyed at Wu Huida.

Qin Wu was instantly bewildered. Holy crap, this Wu Sanlong is going too far!

Of course I knew he would take a cut, but I didn't expect him to be so heartless. I originally thought he would only take half at most, but to my surprise, he gave me a fraction of the original amount.

Wu Huida's face also turned red, and she looked to the side, not daring to speak.

·· ··Requesting flowers·· ··

Qin Wu couldn't bear this humiliation and quickly said, "Governor, Wu Huida said he'd give me tens of millions to buy it. Tell me, isn't this extortion?"

Wu Huida quickly retorted, "No. I never said that. I said double the market price..."

A smirk flashed in Chen Baima's eyes as he glanced at Wu Huida, then at Qin Wu. He chuckled inwardly; these two were a pair of clowns, one ruthless, the other stingy. If he threw them both into the tunnel, things would get interesting.

With a serious expression, Chen Baima said, "I can't be bothered with all this. Anyway, I gave Wu Huida 50 billion. If you really sell it to him for a few hundred million, then don't complain. That's Wu Huida's ability. Now, stop with this nonsense. Are you going to sell it or not?"

... ... .......

Qin Wu was completely dumbfounded. These high-level martial artists had completely shattered his worldview. They were utterly unpredictable, acting like bandits.

After a moment's thought, Qin Wu said seriously, "I really don't need those hammers, and I don't value money. It's not that I can't sell them, it's just that I didn't get what I wanted."

"what do you want?"

"I want a big gun!"

"What big gun?"

"Use the S-grade alloy of this hammer handle and the A-grade alloy of the hammer body to have someone melt them down and forge the large gun I need. As for the remaining materials, no matter how much there is, I don't want them."

"Fuck your mother's fart!"

Chen Baima roared in fury: "Go to hell! I don't want it anymore. I've never seen anyone ask for such an exorbitant price. I'd have to pay you extra to forge this spear from these two hammers... not to mention the craftsmanship fee from the master craftsman who can forge S-grade alloys. Wu Sanlong, let's go. Damn it, you kept saying I was extorting you, but you're the one extorting me?"

After saying that, he left with the dumbfounded Wu Huida.

to go?

That's not okay.

Do you think you can just come and go as you please with Xingyi School?

Qin Wu immediately shouted, "Wait! Let's talk about the price again. How about this... I'll give you 10 billion to help you out."

Chen Baima didn't even turn his head: "Do I look like someone who's short of money?"

Qin Wu paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "Do me a favor, Master Chen."

"……"knife.

Chapter 128: The Story of the Farm

Chen Baima's face darkened: "Qin Wu, I'm warning you, you're extorting a Gang Jin expert."

Qin Wu sighed, "I'm not extorting you. I just feel that I really need a big gun. I can only use half of my strength unarmed. But if I had a suitable weapon, my strength would be far greater. Last time with Senior Wu... if I had a weapon, it would be hard to say."

Wu Huida immediately flew into a rage, "Who are you talking to? You can talk about your own business, why are you dragging me into this?"

"Qin Wu, are you saying I have no weapon?"

Qin Wu ignored Wu Hui Da and continued looking at Chen Bai Ma: "If my strength increases by one point, does that mean the strength of our Southwest region will also increase by one point? If someone from the Southwest enters the top three of the Earth Ranking, you'll have face, right? Give me the title of the Southwest's Number One Gun God, and mention on the Earth Ranking that this gun was personally gifted by the Western Garrison Commander... How can this face be measured by money?"

Chen Baima gave Qin Wu a deep look and chuckled, "How much do you think face is worth? Besides, do you think a martial artist only needs face?"

Before Qin Wu could say anything, Chen Baima said coldly, "Wu Sanlong, I asked you to give him a lesson, did you do it?"

Wu Huida was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "I... I didn't even have time to say the second thing before you arrived."

A hint of doubt appeared in Qin Wu's eyes. He had a feeling that the second matter was far more important than the first. What exactly was it?

I always felt there were other reasons behind it, but I could never find out the secrets.

Is it related to the 'battlefield'?

Is it related to those recorded in the Earthly Rankings, who slaughtered hundreds of thousands of enemy soldiers at a time?

Qin Wu's heart raced, and he vaguely guessed that he might be about to learn a tremendous secret.

Chen Baima stopped moving and simply sat back down: "Then I'll personally tell you something. After I'm done, I want to know your thoughts. I want to know, will you still say that you've become powerful because you're giving me face?"

Qin Wu quickly brewed a cup of tea for Chen Baima and sat down in the seat to his left: "Please speak."

Chen Baima picked up his teacup and said calmly, "Three Dragons."

"yes.:"

Wu Huida quickly agreed, then strode out, closed the door, and stood guard outside, not allowing anyone to approach.

Qin Wu's breathing became even more rapid. Wu Huida, a master of the Transformation Realm, personally guarding the door? How big must this secret be?

Lost in thought, Chen Baima slowly began to speak:

"Qin Wu, let me ask you, are you aware that in the West, and even in the media around the world, there are constant reports of alien invasions, and then superheroes from all over the world rushing to outer space to fight the aliens?"

Qin Wu nodded: "I know. Those are the superheroes they're talking about, an alliance made up of mutants or people with special abilities, like my sister and the others."

"Do you think they're strong? Are they stronger, or are martial artists stronger?"

If we consider the phrase "+{water^|novel#", then the strength of the martial artist is paramount.

"So, if martial artists can destroy superheroes with a flick of their fingers and repel aliens, why do Chinese martial artists never take action? Why do aliens keep daring to invade other planets? Do you think this makes sense?"

Qin Wu shook his head: "I don't think it makes sense. But I can't understand why either, and these questions have bothered me for a very long time. Why send superheroes to fight aliens when there are already powerful martial artists, and make everyone worship them..."

Chen Baima pondered for a moment and said, "You can think of this world as a farm."

"farm?"

"Yes, it's a farm. A family of three lives on this farm; the parents are both strong, but the child is only five or six years old. The farm has a lot of wealth and fat sheep. But this farm is in a remote grassland... In such a place, with fat sheep, do you know what else there is?"

Qin Wu was puzzled by the example Chen Baima gave him, but subconsciously replied, "And wolves?"

"Yes, and wolves too. Wolves eat meat!"

Qin Wu was even more confused: "How can these two things be connected?"

Chen Baima put down his teacup: "Let's set that aside for now. Let me ask you a question first: if a wolf wants to eat the sheep here, doesn't it first need to enter the farm?"

"Correct."

"But there's a child on the farm. Are you sure that if the wolf comes in, it will target the fat sheep or the defenseless child?"

Qin Wu took a deep breath and pondered for a long time: "I think either is possible. It's all about luck."

Chen Baima smiled, a hint of world-weariness in his expression: "Yes, it's all luck, pure luck. You can't gamble, you can't afford to gamble. Do you think the child's parents would dare to gamble?"

"Don't dare."

"Yes, so the parents had to stay outside the farm, guarding it day and night. Whenever a wolf came, they would do everything in their power to drive it away. They had to keep the wolf out of the farm and away from the children and the fat sheep."

Qin Wu originally thought he understood, but he became more and more confused.

"So, what exactly is the connection between these two things?"

Chapter 129: What is a Wolf?

What's the connection?

Qin Wu felt like his brain was going slow, completely unable to figure out what the connection was.

Chen Baima sighed, and Qin Wu suddenly felt inexplicably that Chen Baima's eyes had reddened for a moment, but then returned to normal in an instant...

But he didn't know if he was imagining things or if he was seeing things wrong.

How could a master of the罡劲 (Gang Jin) level cry?

Impossible, I must have seen it wrong.

Chen Baima's voice trembled slightly:

"Danger could come at any moment, but we can wait as long as possible. What parents want most is for their children to grow up healthy and carefree. Do you know what it means to love your child dearly?"

Qin Wu nodded: "I understand. So, what the garrison commander means is that parents don't want their children to know there are wolves outside?"

"Yes, they don't let the children know there are wolves outside. They don't even tell the children what wolves are, nor do they tell them how powerful their parents are. Do you know why 22 doesn't tell them?"

“I think I understand a little. If you tell a child that there are wolves outside, the child will be very scared. They will be afraid that they will be eaten.”

Chen Baima took a deep breath: "Yes, parents don't want their growing children to be frightened by the outside world. They want to protect them as much as possible, hoping that it's best if they never know anything. But as children grow up, they will always be curious about what their parents are doing outside day and night. They will always be curious about what's outside. So what can be done?"

Chen Baima didn't give Qin Wu a chance to speak and continued, "So, the parents had no choice but to bring in a group of relatively weaker but still frightening mice from outside and drive them into the farm."

Upon hearing this, Qin Wu suddenly understood and exclaimed, "You mean, those aliens who are always attacking Earth are rats? They were actually deliberately driven into this world by powerful martial artists? Just to attract everyone's attention and make everyone afraid of those relatively weak rats."

Chen Baima nodded: "That's right. The parents chased the mice into the farm, but then they raised a cat to catch the mice. This made the child focus on the mice. Although he was constantly afraid of the mice, he could see a cat always by his side, so he wasn't so afraid anymore. And in fact, the cat always won. Over time, the child began to admire the cat. He would think that the cat was the most powerful superhero in the world."
