Chapter 265: Being alone
Chapter 265: Being alone
Gao Yi's confidence was earned through hard work. From being cautious in the beginning to gradually becoming full of confidence now, it can be said that he is getting cocky, but it can also be said that he has the demeanor and temperament that only a master has.
Arrogance is not actually a derogatory term for masters, because to become a top master, one needs this kind of belief that one is the only one.
But there is also a side effect, which is that you become arrogant and lonely.
After politely rejecting Marina and ignoring Emily, Gao Yi still didn't feel the kind of happiness that should exist between men and women when he saw Lucy again.
why?
Because Kung Fu is so damn addictive.
Especially for those who practice internal martial arts, in the end they will truly reach a state of having no desires or requests.
"You all already know what happened. Overall, I choose to leave this place of trouble."
Gao Yi recounted what happened to him in the UK that day, and finally talked about his decision and choice. These people had no objection to Gao Yi's choice at all.
“Yes, we must leave here as soon as possible. It looks safe here, but actually…actually it’s not safe at all!”
Luca looked bitter and resentful. He looked around at everyone and whispered, "I have a principle and a point of view, which is that if you are a drop of water, it is best to blend into the ocean, or at least not be exposed to the sun. The French External Security Directorate is not the sea, not a lake, but a desert, a lawn. In short, it is not a place for us to stay!"
Feng Biao chuckled and said, "What Luca said today is very philosophical. Have you been influenced by art since coming to France?"
“It’s not philosophy, it’s truth!”
Luca seemed a little impatient. He waved his hand and said, "The garden originated in France, but why did it leave France? Because the history of the garden is a history of being betrayed by France. The British are unreliable, and the French are unreliable. If you want to live well, you must never deal with any government agency of these two countries, otherwise there will be only two outcomes."
"What's the end?"
Luca said seriously: "Either you will be pissed off or killed by the enemy. The British are insidious and like to use people, and the French like to sell out their own people."
Gao Yi nodded and said, "Just like Joan of Arc."
"Yes, just like Joan of Arc... I wonder if you can use another person as an example? Joan of Arc is too old."
Luca complained about Gao Yi's choice, then he shook his head and said, "You put the British in their faces and stepped on them. The British will definitely not let it go, and it won't take long for the British to find us. So you are right. Not only do we have to leave, but we have to leave as soon as possible!"
"It's agreed that we will take a flight tomorrow to the Central African Republic. There are French troops stationed in the Central African Republic. We can take the military plane that transports supplies to the Central African Republic and enjoy the treatment of emperors there."
Li Jie suddenly asked: "What do you mean by being treated like an emperor?"
Gao Yi sighed with a hint of regret and said, "I don't know. It should be the same treatment as the emperor. However, the material conditions there are limited. At most, you can enjoy privileges, but don't expect to enjoy too much."
Luca seemed very reluctant and said, "Let's go to Africa. Although it's a bit hard, the Americans and British won't be able to find us. Let's just treat it as a trip to a different environment."
Everyone had something to say, except Lucy and Lin Xianghua, who never said anything.
It was getting late now. Gao Yi looked at his watch and said, "Your medicines will be brought directly from here. There are French military doctors in Central Africa. The rest is to change the medicines on time and keep the environment clean. These can be met. But in addition to these, you'd better make a list of what else you need. France will provide us with them for free."
Several people looked at each other, and finally Li Jie suddenly asked, "Can I bring a gun?"
"Of course we can bring our own. If we don't have any, the French will have to find them for us. So even if you want a gun that you normally wouldn't buy, that's fine. The only prerequisite is that you have to be able to find it in France."
Li Jie took a long breath and said with a smile, "Let's go to Africa, or Central Africa. Hunting is great there. I'll bring a hunting rifle. There's a gun I've always wanted to buy but there's no suitable one. Let them prepare a Brassel R8 for me. Since it's at public expense, let them equip me with all the barrels. When I'm well, I'll go hunting lions."
Feng Biao said, "If you don't take advantage of a bargain, you're a bastard. So I have to get a more expensive one, right?"
Lin Xianghua suddenly asked: "Can you give me a game console?"
"Sure, what do you want?"
Lin Xianghua's eyes lit up, and he said anxiously: "I want a PS4, and I want the entire Final Fantasy series, the entire God of War series, The Witcher, and more..."
"You tell me, write it down. How can I remember so many games?"
Gao Yi looked at Lucy and said gently, "Is there anything you need?"
"I don't know what I want, what do I need?"
Gao Yi thought for a moment and said, "Anything will do to kill the long, boring time."
Lucy thought seriously for a moment and said, "A Bible."
Lucy's answer was a little sad, and Gao Yi could only smile bitterly.
Feng Biao suddenly said, "When going to a place like Africa, my suggestion is that you'd better bring a bulletproof vest. Let them provide a full set of combat equipment, night vision goggles, bulletproof vests. I'll write a detailed list for you."
"We are going to recuperate, not to fight, so why are we all carrying combat equipment?" Gao Yi found it a little funny. These people really can't live without guns wherever they go. Do they feel less safe without guns?
Feng Biao said seriously, "Based on my experience, anything can happen in Africa, and we have offended the CIA and MI6, so we must be fully prepared. No matter what happens, it is better to fight by ourselves than to entrust our lives to others."
"You're right. That's it. Let's all take a rest. We don't know what time we'll leave tomorrow."
There was nothing much to say. After an extremely fulfilling and busy day, Gao Yi just wanted to lie down in bed and sleep.
But Feng Biao said at this moment: "Boss, I have something to talk to you about. Can we talk alone?"
"Uh, okay, come to my room."
I don’t know what Feng Biao is trying to do in secret, but since he wants to chat privately, let’s just talk privately.
Gao Yi returned to his room, and after closing the door, Feng Biao immediately said, "It's hard to say because of the Berserker just now. Um... when you came back, it was that beautiful girl who sent you back."
Gao Yi was stunned for a moment.
There is something interesting in what Feng Biao said.
Calling Lucy Berserker means that it is inconvenient to say it. Last time, Gao Yi and the others flattered Marina from a distance in order to guard against eavesdropping devices. Now Feng Biao uses Berserker as a hint at the beginning, so Gao Yi roughly knows what Feng Biao means.
"Yeah, Emily brought me back. What happened?"
Feng Biao looked helpless. He thought for a moment and said, "I think she is interested in you. Boss, aren't you tempted?"
Why did Feng Biao suddenly become concerned about Gao Yi's emotional issues?
Gao Yi turned his head and asked in surprise: "Why are you asking this?"
Feng Biao was silent for a moment, then he whispered, "Boss, there is something I must tell you as a person who has been through this. You can't... you can't... just don't let down the girl's affection for you. Do you understand?"
"not understand."
Gao Yi really didn't understand.
Feng Biao said with a look of disappointment, "We are all men, why are you pretending to be so rude to me? He jumped into the bowl on his own initiative, and you don't want to eat it? If you don't eat it, you will offend him, don't you understand?"
"I don't understand. I really don't understand."
Feng Biao sighed, and then he said earnestly: "Who is the Berserker? She is a dull person who doesn't understand anything, but she doesn't understand, so you can't be confused with her. Let me put it this way, Marina is such a good woman, aren't you moved?"
Gao Yi suddenly realized, and then he whispered: "You want me to marry you?"
For fear of a bug, he couldn't say it too bluntly. Feng Biao was scratching his head anxiously. Then he suddenly took out his cell phone and started typing to Gao Yi quickly.
"Boss, do you know what it means to turn love into hate? You praised her so highly in the early stage, and she took the initiative to get involved, and you said you didn't want it? And Emily, she took the initiative to throw herself at you, why did you push her away?"
Seeing Gao Yi lost in thought, Feng Biao continued typing, "Women are very petty. Be careful or they will get angry and kill you! I say, you are a man, why are you pretending? Just eat when you should! After eating, the road will be wider. You still think she wants to marry you, don't think too much, it's just a show."
Gao Yi felt that Feng Biao was really worried about him, so he tried his best to persuade him to come.
It's both funny and hard to talk about.
Gao Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I am still a virgin now. One year of my practice is at least equivalent to three years of practice for others."
Feng Biao put down his phone in astonishment and looked at Gao Yi in surprise.
Gao Yi spread his hands and said, "For now, I think... I'd better endure it. After this age, you haven't noticed that I have made rapid progress in recent times. This is because my body can keep up with my experience and enlightenment. But if I lose my virginity, really, this kind of rapid progress may be gone forever. All Kung Fu masters started to make rapid progress at my age and laid the foundation for becoming a master at this age. So now I just want to practice Kung Fu and I'm not interested in women."
Feng Biao was stunned for a long time, and then he finally said: "There is such a saying, it is actually true..."
After thinking about it, Feng Biao couldn't help but said, "Well, flowers may bloom again, but people can never be young again. If you ask me, you are already invincible, is there any point in practicing again?" Lucy's answer made people feel a little sad.
“Not invincible.”
Gao Yi sighed and said, "It's just that I haven't met an opponent yet, but I'm still far from the legendary invincible realm. I want to try and see if I can go one step further."
Feng Biao shook his head and said, "I don't know what to say about this, but what's the saying, 'When a flower is in bloom, you should pick it immediately, don't wait until there are no flowers left to pluck. Also, flowers may bloom again, but people can never be young again. At your age and with your conditions, don't wait until you miss out and regret it in the future."
Gao Yi couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, I get it. Anyway, there will be a day. Hey, let it be. It will come naturally when the time comes. But I'm not in a hurry now, no hurry."
