Immortality, only this possibility will make people crazy, and scholars who have always been known for their calmness are no exception.
The latest news about Bran has come back, which has dispelled the scholars' desire to take advantage of it. They decided to reach an agreement with Bran as soon as possible, and then immediately block relevant news. The less people know about this kind of thing, the better.
Bran's request is not a problem for scholars. In the eyes of scholars, this is a fairly fair deal. Bran's demonstrated strength gave him the qualification to enjoy fairness. Since it is fair, conspiracy to calculate these actions that may disrupt the transaction, we must put aside for the time being. On the premise of fairness, the negotiation with Bran has become the simplest thing.
The headache for scholars now is the problem of internal balance. Who will go, who will not go? Radical and conservative still need to coordinate. But all this did not affect the initial preparations. The allocation of materials has been arranged, and the books on geography and history requested by Bran have begun to be copied.
...
Bran was sitting in the Northland City, but he didn't know that he was qualified to enjoy fairness. At this moment, he faced Pachu and Tiree expressionlessly, listening to their requests. They ask for Bran’s forgiveness and Bran’s kindness.
Request, Bran never requested anything. He just hoped, hoping that there is a little fairness and a little opportunity here. Even if he had some small calculations, but it was only a fair game. Nowadays, some people ask Bran, hoping to get it once, they have never given others a chance.
"Is it possible?" Bran asked with a sneer. "Or, do you think I'm good to be deceived, so you come to ask for my kindness?
I understand your duel rules, and the winner is justice. Go back. If you lose money, you will have the consciousness of failure. I hope you can face up to your identity as a loser and don't have another time. "
Anya and his allies are not accustomed to failure yet, and they want to pass the test by arguing. Unfortunately, this is not their home court. After the failure, they ushered in a backlash. They were completely isolated in Green's capital city, and they couldn't move anything.
The situation has become clear, and the nobles have stood up one after another, condemning the atrocities and overpower of the Anya people. This time Bran has finally become a positive image. He is a hero who is not afraid of cruelty and turned the tide. Even the royal family stood up and expressed their admiration for Bran.
All kinds of goodwill and help began to appear around Bran. As a friend, the nobles confided to him about the misfortunes of the Anya.
Bran classified Liangfenshan and Sandstone City as his own private property, and was acquiesced by everyone. People expressed strong support for Bran's sweep of the two-point mountain and the removal of the bandits. He even started a slave business with Bran when he learned that Bran was in urgent need of manpower. Knowing that Bran needs food, they said they would traffic food to Bran territory. All is just for the friendship between the two sides, and hope that this friendship can be maintained for a long time.
For the first time he sent something for friendship, Bran was always willing to come, because he understood that it was a nomination. The real transaction is yet to come, and then it will be the moment when both parties abide by the rules of the transaction.
Mary should be the happiest of all. At this time, she finally had the style of a housekeeper. Watching the old warehouses being filled and the new warehouses being built, her face was always full of smiles. If you can do more, Bran temporarily assigns a few other bored Northlanders to her, hoping that this will allow her to go to the warehouse a few times...
...
Jonah came to Northland City again and informed Bran that the scholars had agreed to his request. This makes Bran feel a little surprised. Could these scholars be lunatics and have been able to overcome the instinctive desire for survival? Bran doesn't believe it!
Regardless of him, since scholars are not afraid of death, Bran will not stop him. But the necessary protection must be there. He proposed that on the road leading to the sandstone city, scholars should be responsible for building a small fortress. After the construction is completed, he will arrange for someone to be stationed.
Unexpectedly, Jonah agreed without hesitation.
Bran felt that the answer was too easy, but he didn't figure out what went wrong for a while. Simply no longer entangled, and quickly reached the initial intention. After all, this is my own land, I believe that nothing can escape my grasp.
Now that the other party has shown sincerity, Bran also introduced the process of necromancy and the contingency in it. Bran did not mention a word about his own magical characteristics; Bran did not say a word about the connection between the dead and himself. This kind of thing that involves one's own secrets, I believe anyone will have reservations.
The scholars also did not expect Bran and confided that their initial purpose was to obtain permission to allow them to approach the sandstone city and conduct research on the undead.
...
After Jonah and Bran reached an agreement, they started rushing non-stop. He set up camps on the north and south sides of the sandstone city to prevent the spread of the dead and ensure the safety of the area, trying to blockade there.
In the process of establishing the camp, they made an unexpected discovery. The scholar who died in the sandstone city appeared as the dead. He was attracted by the actions of his companions and came near the camp.
Upon learning the news, Jonah hurried over and tried to communicate with him, but the dead turned a blind eye to him.
This former little man finally gained unimaginable attention after his death. All his information was sorted out and handed over to Jonah. NameMadi, born in...
So Jonah's communication began to make progress. He brought Madi's daughter, a 4 or 5 year old child here, in a cruel and effective way. In many cases, family affection is the most effective means of communication or threat. He learned from this child that the deceased still retains most of his memories, but not all of them.
He immediately reported the news back to the City of Wisdom.
...
When Jonah tried to communicate with the dead, Bran was also listening to the dead. But when Bran listened, Gu Shu issued his own opinion: "I don't like that side."
This made Bran stunned for a moment, "Why?"
"They are too noisy. And, I know you didn't lie to me, they did die of sound."
"Can you hear them?"
"Yes, when you are listening, I just want to know what you are listening to?" The ancient tree shook the canopy in excitement. "So, I tried to listen, and finally I heard it."
"I don't like them just because it is too noisy?" Bran asked.
"They just disgust me."
Bran patted the old tree and motioned to understand.
...
When Bran was observing the actions of the scholars in secret, the Anya, who was left alone, finally recognized the situation. They are willing to pay the ransom for themselves and at the same time redeem the bodies of their companions. But all this will take time, and I hope Bran will allow them to return home to prepare.
What Bran wants is this attitude, let Il and Mary entangle them with other specific things. So he freed the Anya and allowed them to return home to prepare. He is not afraid of the Anya people going back, on the contrary, he hopes the other party will do the same. He will go out after all, he will not be trapped in Beidi City. The more debts you owe him, the better. At the right opportunity, these are the best excuses.
What Bran didn't expect was that the Anya, who knew he had nothing to do with him, targeted Green's royal family. It is claimed that the Green Royal Family is the culprit, and they must pay for it. Bran couldn't help laughing when he heard the news.
