The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 694: It's Hard to Distinguish Right from Wrong

The Mysterious Palace of the Nine Heavens was built among thousands of mountains and rivers.

But looking from a distance, there was no trace of it.

If you follow the man in black all the way, even if your five senses are as strong as Li Chaofeng, it will be difficult to find the location of the Jiutian Xuan Palace.

Li Chaofeng promoted merits and virtues, and also directly stated that there is a limit to the merits and virtues in the world.

Li Chaofeng’s idea is that since merits and virtues are limited.

If the cultivator wants to attain enlightenment and become an immortal, he can only become the King of Scrolls together.

All martial arts originated from Shaolin, and Wudang martial arts are unrivaled in the world.

The disciples of the two sects are spread all over the world, but one practices Buddhism and the other practices Taoism.

For practitioners, merit is never too much.

The Red Flame Dragon seized half of the world and also took away half of the world's merits.

But the emperor was the head of aristocratic families, and many eunuchs and palace maids were slaves in the imperial city.

The roll must be rolled.
It's a pity that ideals are full, and reality is very skinny.

Shaolin and Wudang heard about Li Chaofeng's merits.

I didn’t say I believed it, nor did I say I didn’t believe it.

But they didn't move.

However, Jiutian Xuan Palace was preparing to roll up with Li Chaofeng.

Li Chaofeng does not want the people to burn incense and worship every day, so the merit can be obtained just by improving people's livelihood. Will the people be grateful?
Li Chaofeng didn't care. After all, he was the only time traveler in the world, and the so-called "Records of the Immortal World" were all compiled by him.

If God has the power, he will appear, bypass the deer-cutting knife, and send down a bolt of lightning to kill him.

But some people would never believe what Li Chaofeng made up, while others believed it without a doubt.
Although the method is vicious, what Jiu Tian Xuan Gong does can indeed get the merit that Li Chaofeng mentioned.

Most importantly, the cost is not high.

Only one life was lost during the whole process, and that was an old Miao man selected by the Miao village itself.

The “chief culprit” cannot be too weak, after all, he is the bandit leader.

But being a little older doesn’t matter much.

And a robbery in Jiutianxuan Palace can at least allow hundreds or thousands of seedlings to survive.

One life and a hundred lives.
Of course a hundred lives are more valuable.

Watching the man in black disappear into the cracks of the mountain wall, Li Chaofeng closed his eyes and began to sense the situation in the mountain.

Behind him are Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan.

After watching the entire robbery process, I also learned the final destination of the missing supplies of the Qiuniu tribe.

Ji Bingyan didn't feel happy at all and her face became very gloomy.

The heroes of the world always rob the rich and give to the poor.

But most of the people they robbed were ruthless wealthy businessmen or powerful nobles who took advantage of their power to bully others.

Although Li Chaofeng has killed countless people over the years, he has done so in an upright manner.

Robbing the rich to help the poor, but ended up robbing the Shenlong Gang
Although they paid a price, they also took advantage of the loopholes of the Shenlong Gang.

But Ji Bingyan didn't know what to say.

He wanted to curse, but the man in black didn't rob for his own wealth and glory.

The look in the old man's eyes proved that he was indeed willing to die.

He wanted to praise, but
A life was lost.

Countless words came to my mind, but I didn't know how to say them.

Like a fishbone stuck in the throat
Ji Bingyan couldn't speak, but Hu Tiehua suddenly asked.

"Li Chaofeng, do you still remember what you said yourself?"

Li Chaofeng opened his eyes with a gloomy expression and a cold tone.

"What?"

Hu Tiehua: "Two lives are always more valuable than one."

Looking at the high mountains in the distance, Hu Tiehua's face was the calmest, and there was even some sarcasm in his tone.

"Now, do you think this is true?"

Li Chaofeng didn't care about Hu Tiehua's teasing and just responded coldly.

“But I also said that life is priceless.”

Looking at the crack in the distance, Li Chaofeng's eyes were cold and ruthless.

“Even if all the wealth in the world is added together, it is not as valuable as a life.”

Hu Tiehua shook his head. Li Chaofeng was right, but reality was always cruel.

He smiled bitterly and said, "With your knowledge, don't you know how difficult life is in the mountains?"

"With those supplies, how many people can survive?"

Li Chaofeng shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!"

Hu Tiehua shut up, but his eyes proved one thing: he was not convinced.
The old Miaozi went to die voluntarily. Apart from asking the Miaozi who surrendered to keep it secret, the people of Jiutianxuan Palace did not deceive the Miao village about anything.

Life is precious, friendship is precious!

For the sake of friendship, Hu Tiehua never cared whether he lived or died.

So Hu Tiehua didn't find anything that was happening before his eyes disgusting at all.

Robbing the rich to help the poor is called a hero.

To die bravely is a sign of kindness.

Keeping a secret for a friend is a sign of loyalty.

In addition to threatening Miaozi with his family's lives to prevent him from leaking the secret.
There was not much wrong with what the men in black did.

With Li Chaofeng around, the scapegoat Lao Miao will naturally not die.
But the gloomy expressions of Li Chaofeng and Ji Bingyan made Hu Tiehua feel that he needed to say a few good words for the man in black.

Seeing Li Chaofeng looking into the distance again, Hu Tiehua also whispered to persuade him.

"You said it yourself, money is just a matter of how much you make."

Li Chaofeng turned to look at Hu Tiehua, his eyes as sharp as knives, and he lowered his voice to accuse.

"We have known each other for so many years, and you are so old, why are you still so naive?"

Hu Tiehua retorted loudly: "This is called friendship!"

"The Shenlong Gang makes so much money every year. What's the point of giving a little to those poor guys?"

"Why, why kill them all?"

At this point, Hu Tiehua's voice lowered.
After all, the things that Miaozi stole did not belong to Hu Tiehua.

Li Chaofeng looked at Ji Bingyan who lowered her head and remained silent, and said angrily with bared teeth.

"Hu Tiehua, do you think these supplies fell from the sky?"

"The food on the cart was dug out from the ground bit by bit by the farmers with countless blood and sweat!"

"And those pieces of cloth were woven bit by bit by the workers enduring the noise of the machines!"

"They trusted me, and with just one word from me, they exchanged these supplies for various banknotes."

"These notes are money to you."

"But to me, money notes are never money, they are bills, they are debts that must be paid back!"

"Hu Tiehua, do you want to persuade me to default on the people's debts?"

Hu Tiehua’s empty head began to think.

If Li Chaofeng dares to default on his debt
With his martial arts skills, naturally no one dared to collect the debt from him.

He will become the richest man in the world, but also the most evil person.

Ji Bingyan interrupted: "The Qiuniu tribe should be patient for a while, it will still be enough."

Li Chaofeng looked at Ji Bingyan and glared angrily.

"Shut up, too!"

Turning to look at Hu Tiehua, Li Chaofeng raised his hand and accused.

"The Qiuniu tribe is exposed to the sun every day in order to control the desert. Why should they save on food and other necessities?"

"Just because the people in the mountains are so poor that they are almost starving to death, you feel sorry for them and become soft-hearted?"

Seeing that Hu Tiehua had lowered his head so much that his eyes could not be seen, Li Chaofeng became even angrier.

"Yes, all heroes are like this."

"Fool the poor people in front of you and get their thanks."

"What happens next is up to God. It has nothing to do with you."

"But God never cares about the trivial matters in the mortal world. I am the one who cares!"

"If I act on my own will and start doing things based on my mood."

"Guess how many farmers in the world can't even afford a piece of clothing even though they shed all their blood and sweat, and how many workers work hard every day but can't even fill their stomachs!"

Li Chaofeng's words were so strong that Hu Tiehua had nothing to refute.
But as he suddenly looked up, Hu Tiehua also roared with red eyes.

“So, are we just going to watch people starve to death or freeze to death in the mountains?”

Li Chaofeng's breathing suddenly stopped, and then he closed his eyes, clenched his fists and then gradually loosened them.
The world is never black and white.

Li Chaofeng knew about this matter, and Ji Bingyan knew about it.
But Hu Tiehua didn't understand.

It’s not that he’s not smart enough, it’s just that he doesn’t want to understand.

It's better to be naive. At least Hu Tiehua will never kowtow to Li Chaofeng, and it is even more impossible for him to go along with others.
Looking at the place where the man in black disappeared, Li Chaofeng sighed and explained helplessly:

“If the mountains don’t move, the water will. No matter how hard or tired the seedlings are, they will never starve to death.”

"But I won't care about the lives of the seedlings in the mountains, and I certainly won't condone anyone to rob the people of their hard-earned money."

After he finished speaking, Li Chaofeng raised his foot and said helplessly.

"Let's go. Anyway, we should go and take a look."

"Who on earth is so powerful that he dares to mess with the Shenlong Gang?"
