Chapter 252 The punch is so fast?
"Dad, if it really doesn't work, please find me a new mother."
Looking at the old and simple Bai Suo, Bai Tian was really powerless.
He spent a long time explaining what the soul and the underworld were, but this guy didn't understand at all!
Bai Suo always believed that Bai Tian couldn't let go of Su Ling, so he had so many weird ideas...
This kid... Oh no, it's this old man who really has a stupid brain!
Bai Tian was too exhausted to explain and said gloomily, "Just live a few more years. Your mother will come back soon."
Bai Suo's lips trembled as he tried to say something, but Bai Tian immediately interrupted him, "Stop talking! I plan to stay in Black Sky City for a while. Find a way to arrange an identity for me first."
"Aren't you my father?" Bai Suo's eyes became even weirder.
Bai Tian's face darkened. "You are a dying war king. Your father is the same age as your grandson. If you tell others about this, what do you think they will think?"
Bai Suo was even more confused: "But wasn't it the same in Yancheng before..."
Before he could say anything more, Bai Tian knocked him hard on the head: "How many people were there in Yancheng before, and how many people are there in Heitiancheng now? Besides, that was many years ago. Think about it!"
Bai Suo shrank his head slightly in grievance, and it took him a while to react: "Oh... Dad, I understand. You don't want them to know that you have lived for so long... No, Dad, why can you live so long? I am almost dead and you are not dead yet..."
Before he could finish, Bai Suo saw Bai Tian glaring at him. He suddenly dared not say anything and smiled angrily.
Bai Suo scratched his head. "Dad, you can come and go freely in Black Sky City. No one will care about your presence. If I need anything, I'll let Xiao Lie help you... Oh, by the way, Xiao Lie is my second daughter's man. He is now the city lord and is from the Lieshan tribe."
When Bai Tian mentioned the Lieshan tribe, he couldn't help but frown: "Didn't you get the prescription when you came to Black Sky City?"
Bai Suo smiled bitterly. "Speaking of the prescription, I'm still furious. The city lord at the time took the prescription, and before he died, he killed everyone who knew it, including Jiang Shui. We've been re-formulating the prescription over the years, and we've made quite a bit of progress. It's just... Dad, I don't know how to spread this."
"Our current medicinal soup can't make people stop eating meat completely, it can only slightly reduce it. I sent someone back to Yancheng, but they haven't given me a reply. I did talk to Donghuang before, and Donghuang said to wait until the time is right, but I'm almost dead."
This is indeed a problem. Even if we can really develop a medicinal soup that can help humans reduce their meat intake, it is only a transitional stage and is not easy to promote, especially since there may be other side effects.
Never mind, let's talk about this later. Right now, the more troublesome thing is that stubborn old man Bai Suo...
Bai Tian really wanted to tell Bai Suo that his partner would never wake up again.
I saw it during the day. This old woman... oh no, it's my daughter-in-law. In fact, she has no soul anymore, only a body.
The reason why it is not dead yet is entirely due to Bai Suo's nourishment with strength and the blood of others. Once this nourishment is cut off, this body will die completely.
But looking at Bai Suo's expression, it was hard to speak during the day. This stubborn old man, who was willing to use his blood to nourish his elderly partner, must be unwilling to believe that she was dead.
Love drives people crazy...
The father and son sat by the fire, Bai Suo kept telling his past stories, and he was very excited. He finally became energetic again, as if he had returned to the past.
Bai Suo recounted how he led his team to defeat the former Lord of Black Sky City, how he regained control of Black Sky City amidst the chaos, and why he didn't become the Lord and let others do it.
In fact, a lot of things have happened between Bai Suo and Heitian City over the years, but it's a pity that Bai Tian was unable to play the role of "father" by his side during the day.
Bai Tian felt guilty about this. Although Bai Suo was adopted by him, he never really considered him his own son. It wasn't that he felt any repulsion towards Bai Suo, but Bai Tian himself had never thought of himself as a "father"...
During the day, he discovered that Black Sky City was much more complicated than he had expected.
Living in the city requires providing assistance to the city. You cannot live there for free. You need to "pay taxes" on time, that is, you need to regularly hand over some useful prey or ores.
At present, Black Sky City already has a very complete barter system, and there are clear regulations on how common items should be exchanged at equal value.
Moreover, the management of Black Sky City is well segmented, divided into many districts, and each district supervises each other.
The tribe is large, and it is unrealistic for all to go hunting, so there are also breeding farms. Some are owned by individuals, and some are owned by the city, where people can "work" in exchange for "paying taxes."
Of course, there were some confusions in the details, as it was still a primitive society. But the transformation from the original Lai Ri tribe to the present Black Sky City in just two or three hundred years was already incredible.
You have to know that the Lai Ri tribes back then were still matriarchal societies, but now Black Sky City already has a relatively complete city management system...
Before I knew it, the fire went out and daybreak arrived.
He was studying Bai Suo's body when an urgent shout came from outside: "Dad, Dad, something happened."
Not calling Bai Tian, but calling Bai Suo...
Bai Suo went out and released his spiritual sense to eavesdrop in the house during the day.
The person coming from outside should be the current city lord Jiang Lie, Bai Suo's son-in-law, and Bai Tian's grandson-in-law...
Jiang Lie said anxiously, "Dad, let's do it."
Bai Suo's face darkened: "Didn't I tell you to separate them? Why did you start fighting?"
"Oh, we were going hunting early in the morning, and for some reason, they started arguing on the way, and then a fight broke out. I've already sent someone over, but I'm worried that we won't be able to control it. If this gets out of hand, I'm afraid our Black Sky City will be in chaos again. Dad, you have to think of a solution quickly."
"What can I do? They all do this... Wait a moment." Bai Suo said, turned around and walked back into the house, closing the door again.
"Dad, Dad, please help me think of a solution."
His face was dark during the day, could he say no?
"Another civil unrest?" Bai Tian asked with a frown.
Bai Suo nodded. "Yes, but it's different from before. This time it's a little hard to explain. It's just that a man and a woman are having sex. This problem has been going on for several years, and it's been particularly serious recently."
Bai Tian was stunned. Did the conflict between men and women arise so quickly?
Bai Suo continued, "It all started with a group of men who wanted to change the monogamous rule that was established back then, and that made many women unhappy. Then the two sides started arguing and fighting, and it got really heated."
"I haven't been involved much in recent years, but I heard from Xiao Lie that the problem is very serious and people are often beaten to death."
Oh my god, the punch is so fast?!
