In the office of the Truth Department's Think Tank Group.
Ren Ruofeng was combing his sideburns in front of the mirror. He nodded in satisfaction. He had been using the Venerable Dragon God's Face Rejuvenating Pill every day for the past few months. Not a single strand of white hair could be seen on his head. As expected, products from the Dragon Clan were of the highest quality.
"Dong Dong", someone knocked on the door and pushed it open.
Ren Ruofeng did not need to look up to know who it was. Who else could push open the door without his permission?
"What is it? I need to work overtime today, so I won't be home for dinner. You and Zhu Zhu can eat by yourselves. "He said calmly.
Hong Yunjiao threw a stack of reports on his desk and said, "Qiongzhou's Special Affairs Department sent a top-secret document. A strange Upper Realm race has descended in batches. Their method of descent is unknown. Their race has unique characteristics. They look fair and square, and they want to rent our land. This is the information they just analyzed after staying up all night. For the sake of confidentiality, they did not send it through the internet, but through an urgent channel. "
Ren Ruofeng sat steadily and did not even look at the stack of documents. He continued combing his hair in front of the mirror. He said casually, "I'll look at this later. The Venerable Dragon God's butler has already sent all their information to me through QQ. I'll take a look at the authoritative version of the Dragon Clan first."
"What?" Hong Yunjiao's eyes widened. "Why didn't you say so earlier? You made us work so hard …"
Ren Ruofeng put down the comb and spread his hands. "I just received it. Intelligence channels should not communicate with each other in the first place, so we can verify each other's authenticity. I'm working overtime tonight to deal with the Whitestone people. "
Hong Yunjiao was speechless. How could she not know this? She was just using this opportunity to stir up trouble …
Zhu Zhu was pregnant with the Ren family's child, but she never had a child, so she was naturally at a disadvantage.
However, she had always considered herself a talented woman, so how could she swallow this insult? Ren Ruofeng tried to explain for a long time, but he could not avoid the fact that he had dual cultivated with Zhu Zhu … This was a great humiliation.
She turned around and left. She thought to herself, "Hmph, all of you think that I will compromise. When Zhuzhu gives birth to a baby, I will have a secret method to bring it up to maturity and make all of you suffer …"
Ren Ruofeng looked at her back as she left and felt relieved. 'Ah Jiao is so sensible. Ever since I explained it to her, she agreed to bring Zhuzhu home. She even asked about her well-being and took good care of her.'
Of course, the Truth Department had strict rules. As the team leader, he could not break the bottom line. However, even if they could not live together, they could still eat together and be good friends. This was not necessarily a bad ending …
After all, everyone had hope for immortality in the future. It was actually quite good to be together like this. As an old couple, there were too many conflicts between them. It was better for them to live a more comfortable life separately. Anyway, they wouldn't fall sick, and they didn't need one to take care of the other …
With a joyful mood, he quickly flipped through the information sent by Butler Zheng.
"The Whitestone people are white and square. Their racial trait is honesty and they never lie. Their origins are as follows: …"
Just as he said, after pulling an all-nighter, he finished reading the two thick sets of information. He immediately came to a conclusion. If both pieces of information were true, then the Whitestone people were:
Rare goods worth hoarding, rare treasures, must not be missed …
He did not know how the ancestor of the Whitestone people could do this. Although it could not be compared to Nuwa's creation of humans, it was definitely an ancient supernatural power.
The Whitestone people who were the laughing stock of the Upper Realm and were ostracized by their own race were completely different in his eyes.
He immediately called Xie Dong and asked him to rush to Qiongzhou with him. He could not let these treasures escape.
Xie Dong rushed over with a bitter expression.
It was only 4: 30 in the morning. It was May, so it was still dark. He was just sleeping soundly in his bed with his wife and child …
Ever since the Venerable Dragon God appeared, especially in the recent months, he had developed a new flying sword that was extremely fast. This had greatly reduced the workload of the Truth Department.
The number of sudden incidents of Extraordinaires had decreased, so they could sleep peacefully. They did not have to wake up suddenly and rush thousands of miles away to deal with the situation like before.
The Venerable Dragon God was much faster than them. Usually, when they received a call to the police, they would receive news that the situation had been dealt with …
Now, it seemed like an extremely urgent matter had happened. Could it be that even the Venerable One could not deal with it?
Unknowingly, Xie Dong did not realize that he had developed a "Venerable One Dependence Syndrome".
"Let's go, little fella. Stop pretending. I didn't even complain when I didn't sleep last night. Look at the wrinkles on my eyebrows. After staying up all night, don't they have more wrinkles? "Ren Ruofeng went over and slapped Xie Dong to wake him up.
Xie Dong could tell if he was telling the truth or not. As long as it was not an important matter, he would always be straightforward with Xie Dong. He would never play games with him. It was useless anyway …
"Senior's Evergreen Supreme Technique is profound and magical. I can't even see a wrinkle after staying up all night." Xie Dong smiled bitterly.
Ren Ruofeng nodded in satisfaction. He picked up the briefcase on the table and walked to the door.
He looked at the mirror above the door before opening the door and walking out of the office. He said as he walked, "I know you weren't lying just now. Very good. The person we're going to meet this time can use your ability. Don't pull a long face. If you do this well, I'll ask the Public Relations team to give you two more days off. "
Xie Dong quickly caught up and took the briefcase for him. He thanked him profusely, "Thank you, Leader Ren. I know you're telling the truth."
He did not lack money, a wife, or a home. He only lacked vacations.
"You little fella …" Ren Ruofeng pointed at him helplessly.
He could fool the other people in the Truth Department with flattery, but Xie Dong, who had the special ability to tell the truth from the lies, could not be fooled at all. Either he did not say anything, or he did say something.
If he was like some unscrupulous bosses who only knew how to bluff people, he would not be able to deal with this guy.
…
Qiongzhou, Fuluo County Beach.
A group of Whitestone people were sitting on the ground cultivating. None of them moved.
As for their leader, he was currently leading Shi Da to speak with the true owner of the land beneath their feet … the representative.
"I'm sorry. We just want to farm and eat. We don't want to do anything big." The Whitestone leader, Shi Gan, shook his head.
Ren Ruofeng felt like he was hit in the head.
He had confirmed with Xie Dong that the other party would not lie. 250 people either did not speak, or if they did, they would definitely be telling the truth.
After confirming this point, his heart was wild with joy, as if he had obtained a precious treasure. However, he still maintained a calm and indifferent expression on his face. He waved his fan and described a beautiful future to the other party, inviting the other party to create a great undertaking together.
According to him, as long as the other party joined the Truth Department, it would only be a matter of time before they built a world where everyone was honest.
He spoke in an orderly manner. He had a few feasible plans for each step.
The other party's ability to be honest was mocked and looked down upon in the Upper Realm's society where the strong preyed on the weak.
However, they were needed in modern society. Referees, judges, quality inspectors, and all sorts of other professions could allow them to display their skills and maintain social justice.
Most importantly, the higher-ups could use them without worrying about them deceiving their superiors. This was actually the most important point. If they were placed in key positions, they could ensure that the structure would not be messed up and that it would run smoothly.
He wondered, "Why didn't you agree?"
Shi Gan did not speak.
At this moment, the fat and square Shi Da suddenly spoke, "Oh, the clan leader just told me secretly that you, old mister, even lied about your age. You're obviously very old, but you said you're only 18 years old. We really can't believe you …"
"Pfft!" Ren Ruofeng spat out a mouthful of blood. He did not expect this to be the problem. When he introduced himself just now, he had subconsciously said he was only 18 years old …
He was puzzled just now. He had said it so beautifully, and the other party had agreed with him. He was about to be moved and agree, so why did he reject him in the end?
It turned out that the other party's clan leader could tell the truth from the lies. He was indeed impressive. No wonder he could lead a group of honest people and survive in the Upper Realm until now.
He shook his head and sighed. "I'm sorry, I'm used to saying it. I'm actually 74 years old this year. I've cultivated an Upper Realm Divine Technique to regain my youth and youth. "
As he said this, he noticed that Xie Dong, who was beside him, could not help but snicker.
He thought to himself, 'Hmph, kid, you're funny, aren't you? You don't even know that your retirement has already flown away …'
Xie Dong naturally did not notice. He could tell the truth from the other party's words, but if the other party did not say it, he could not do anything.
He just found it funny that Leader Ren, who had always been strong and meticulous, also had a time when he was restrained in front of an honest person.
It was a pity that Leader Hong did not see it. If the latter had seen it, he would probably be laughing for a long time.
Shi Gan nodded and said, "Yes, old mister, you're telling the truth this time. If you can swear to God that you are willing to follow the steps I have just mentioned … First, starting from yourself, no one will lie. Second, starting from yourself, everyone will treat others with sincerity. Third, starting from yourself, everyone will be loyal to their friends and companions. We're willing to join the Truth Department and create a world where everyone is sincere. "
After saying that, he looked at the other party eagerly. He knew that the other party was indeed an important person in this realm and had a lot of power. If he could take the lead and follow the example of his superiors, he would definitely be able to influence a lot of people.
Just as Ren Ruofeng was about to swear, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Even a wise man would make a mistake.
This was an oath to the Heavenly Axiom, how could he simply make such an oath? He did not seem to have done it himself …
He was used to deceiving people with these three steps, so what he said was definitely true. However, it was too far-fetched, and the honest Whitestone people would only take it as the truth. However, everyone on Earth knew that it might be possible, just like some ideals, but to achieve it would take ten thousand years …
Seeing his expression, the Whitestone leader's face flashed with obvious disappointment.
He shook his head and said, "Sigh, another person who wants to lie to us. Please leave, we won't place our hopes on others. We'll use our own hands to slowly create such a world."
For the first time, Ren Ruofeng felt a trace of real shame. In front of such an idealist and practitioner, his previous wisdom seemed to be useless.
