It wasn't that the old man wasn't confident that he could use Xu Cheng's body to extend the lives of his companions.
So, he felt like he should try again.
"I think this matter can be negotiated. You don't have to die, and I haven't said what I need you to do yet."
"I know, you guys are getting old, and I also know that your next target is Huaxia," Xu Cheng said, "So, there's no need to talk! I'm not great and can't save my country, but I won't give my enemies a chance either. "
"Looks like Little Brat told you everything he knows." The old man looked at Xu Cheng and said, "What's an enemy? Do you think we are wrong? We have been enslaved for so many years and can control our own destiny, so why don't we resist? There are only two choices in life: struggle and climb up, or fall. What choice do you think we had in that era of war? I'm afraid you understand our position the best. I've seen your resume. If you didn't work hard, you wouldn't be worthy of your wife, and you wouldn't have your current wealth and status. Do you dare say that what you've done in the Land of Mercenaries is any different from what we've done? In this world, there's no right or wrong, only the strong and the weak. The law can decide whether you're right or wrong, but do you know that the law is actually issued by a bunch of dictators? "
"Your mistake is forgetting your roots!" Xu Cheng said in a deep voice, "A person's bottom line should be their nation! The difference between me and you is that I never thought about going against the country, and I'll never harm the interests of the country! "
"Ridiculous!" The old man snorted. "Try the feeling that the existence of this nation made you a eunuch? Over the years, when those experts and scholars used contemptuous tones to judge the eunuchs in history, have you ever thought about how we felt? Even those Chinese who fled to the rest of the world knew to let the next generation return to their roots and have hope in their hearts, but what do we have? In the end, we don't even have the foundation to maintain feelings for that land, and you're talking to me about patriotism? Aren't you also unscrupulously attacking the United States? You have your own standpoint, and we have our own interests. No one is in the wrong. The only mistake is that your existence is blocking our path. The Freemasonry is far larger than you can imagine. If it's destroyed, the world's economy will regress by at least twenty years! What's wrong with global capitalization? Everyone has money and goals. Rather than saying that we are dictators, we are more like managers. Look at the countries under our management. Which country isn't experiencing rapid economic growth? "
"Since that's the case, doesn't Huaxia's expansion make you feel afraid? You are afraid that after it replaces the United States, the structure of the world will change. As long as the United States remains strong, it will be beneficial for you to take the initiative to intimidate other countries into developing economic cooperation. The United States is equivalent to your war machine. If it is no longer the strongest country in the world, it will be very difficult for you to intimidate other small countries and control them! " Xu Cheng said, "So, Huaxia must be under your control, or at least under your surveillance. So, over the years, your Freemasonry has been recruiting some rich people in Huaxia, hoping that their social status can connect with the government and businessmen to achieve your goal."
The old man looked at Xu Cheng, not expecting him to have such an opinion.
"You do see it clearly, but what's the use? Since the birth of the Freemasonry, there had been people who wanted to destroy it in the past hundred years. In the history of the United States, there were two disobedient presidents who ended up dead. Hitler also wanted to destroy this power and massacre it on a large scale. What was the result? Not only did they die, but they also had to bear the infamy. Look at the United Kingdom. It used the power of several generations of princes to try to expel the Freemasonry from infiltrating the country, but now the entire royal family is just a mere figurehead! What does this mean? Capital is the biggest weapon to push the world forward, it's the trend of the times. "
"You don't have to brainwash me, that's your business. I only know that as long as I'm alive, anyone who dares to invade Huaxia will be killed no matter how far away they are!" Xu Cheng said.
"With your strength, you can totally join us in this game of sharing capital. We can unite and give you an elder position in the council."
Xu Cheng laughed out loud. "That's great, don't you guys want to extend your lives? If you join the Alliance of Aliens, I can also give you a member of the council. They can give you capital and money, but you can't bring it with you when you're alive. I can extend your lives, come back to Huaxia with me and serve the country. "
The old man looked at Xu Cheng and said, "It's hard for a foreign guest to enter the main hall. With your financial resources, if you join the Freemasonry, you probably won't even get a member of the council. Compared to the scale of the Freemasonry, you guys are just a small fry. Don't talk nonsense, as long as you can help us extend our lives, we will give you anything you want, except damaging our interests."
Xu Cheng: "I said you guys aren't allowed to invade Huaxia, can you guys do it?"
The old man: "No, because we don't have much say, and controlling the world is the purpose of the Freemasonry, and no one has been able to change it for hundreds of years. The game is on, and whoever quits will die! Including us, if we join the Freemasonry, we will also die. "
Xu Cheng: "Who can let you guys die?"
"There are a lot of things you don't understand, and you don't need to know," the old man said.
Xu Cheng smiled. "You already told me so much, aren't you afraid that revealing the secrets of the Freemasonry will be considered a betrayal?"
"It doesn't count." The old man said confidently, "Because you won't bring the secrets out. Tonight, you are just a dead man."
Then, the old man floated over from the dark operating room. When he grabbed onto Xu Cheng's arm, wanting to subdue him, Xu Cheng grabbed his wrist and threw him out of the operating room.
The silver-haired old man slammed into the door. He was a bit surprised that Xu Cheng could be this strong!
"Didn't expect this, right?" Xu Cheng said, "This is the power of the Freemasonry. But you should be glad that I'm injured right now, or else I would have smashed you into meat paste!"
"In this world, there are no absolutes." The old man stood up and wiped off the blood on the corner of his mouth. "Things that are too hard are easy to break."
Then, he walked up, and his fingers wrapped around Xu Cheng's arm like a flower. Then, he slammed his palm into Xu Cheng's chest. It seemed like there was no force behind it, but a surge of surging internal force shook Xu Cheng's internal organs.
Xu Cheng's body flew back and slammed into the operating table, knocking over all the lamps around him. The blood around his heart was already clotted, and he was injured. That slap really did kill Xu Cheng.
After he spat out a mouthful of blood, he kicked a piece of equipment at the old man.
The old man's palms landed on the equipment that was flying at him, and the equipment was directly sent flying.
Xu Cheng took the opportunity to jump out of the window, shooting up into the sky in an arc, and he escaped into the woods in the distance.
"Where do you think you're going?" The old man shouted in a low voice. He also jumped onto the treetops and chased after Xu Cheng like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water.
