Lin Yi thought and said, "although I don't know what kind of crisis it will be, judging from various signs, our whole college and even the whole Jianghai city will experience a great disaster in the near future, and many people may die."

This is the conclusion that he and Shen Yifan sorted out and inferred after discussing for a long time in combination with various recent intelligence. It has never been mentioned in front of outsiders. Today is the first time.

The old man shook his head: "not many people will die, but it is possible that all people will die."

Lin Yi was stunned. Even Han Qi next to him changed his face. Even he heard this for the first time!

If someone else said this, Lin Yi absolutely scoffed, but now from the old man's mouth, there was a feeling that he had to believe it.

"What kind of catastrophe will it be?"

Lin Yi frowned and asked.

According to my previous judgment, although it is troublesome next, as long as I can master enough power and don't expect anything else, at least it should be no problem to protect my own people.

But according to the old man, even if Lin Yi's freshman League grows up in a short time, I'm afraid it's a drop in the bucket!

The old man waved his hand slightly: "the secret of heaven must not be revealed."

Lin Yi and Han Qi looked at each other, but they became more and more confused. An idea came up at the same time. Isn't the old man playing tricks?

Admittedly, Lin Yi was impressed by the little things the old man showed from the beginning of the meeting. The old man's position in Han Qi's mind, not to mention, but they are not easy to fool after all.

The slightest hint of impropriety will immediately detect the flaw and question it face to face!

The old man smiled bitterly: "it's not that I'm making a mystery, but that some things can't be said. If I shut up and don't mention it, I can continue to drag on for a while. If I said it here today, there will be layers of induction immediately, resulting in the early arrival of the great disaster."

"Is it so mysterious?"

Han Qi is still skeptical.

Lin Yi reacted a little: "is it the so-called butterfly effect?"

"Yes, it is quite similar to the butterfly effect mentioned by the secular world, but more precisely, there are a group of incomparably powerful beings looking for us all the time. If we mention it, they will pay attention to it and everything will be advanced."

The old man explained so far.

At this point, Lin Yi naturally couldn't continue to study the bottom, but instead asked, "how are you going, elder?"

"What I want to do, in fact, is to integrate all the forces that can be integrated as soon as possible in case of great disaster."

The old man replied positively.

Lin Yi thought: "so you and Tianjia are allies?"

The old man replied, "the general direction is the same, but the specific route will be different. After all, he has his position, and I have my position."

Lin Yi heard the speech and asked, "what position do you think I am?"

Han stood up and listened.

The purpose of bringing Lin Yi here today is to let Lin Yi really join in, and the next dialogue will directly determine whether each other can become their own people.

Although he believes that he will not become an enemy with the heart and mind of the old man and Lin Yi, he will inevitably go his own way and get farther and farther once there is a route choice in the future.

The old man looked up and down at Lin Yi and said slowly, "look at your style, there is no clear position. All you care about is that few people, right?"

"Good."

Lin Yi nodded calmly. This is the original intention and persistence of all his efforts. If the other party came to say that the world is for the public, he would definitely leave without saying a word.

The old man turned to himself: "the difference between my position and Tianjia's position is actually the difference between grass-roots and elite."

"Tianjia always follows the elite line. Although it is not cronyistic, for example, the current owner tianxiangyang is very good at selecting talents from the grass roots for training, in the final analysis, it is only the elite line that benefits a few people, and all resources will only fall on a few elites."

"On the contrary, I have always advocated taking the grass-roots route. Cultivating resources should benefit more grass-roots as much as possible and give them the possibility of at least growing up."

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "the essence of the cultivation world is the law of the jungle. The weaker the weak, the stronger the strong. Elder, this practice is a little out of tune with the environment."

The old man smiled: "that's why I fell here."

On the surface, his imprisonment was the result of the counter attack of the current chief Xu Anshan, but in fact, the real deep essence was that the grassroots line lost to the elite line.

Under the same resource conditions, ten grassroots lose to one elite, which is a high probability event.

"In that case, now that there is a great disaster, it is time to integrate forces and the United Front. If the elder comes back and stirs up the struggle between the grass-roots and the elite again, wouldn't he be holding back the Tianjia family?"

Lin Yi asked this without hesitation. Even Han Qi pinched a cold sweat for him.

Although the old man is now as approachable as an old farmer next door, he used to be a powerful leader in life and death. He is not inferior to anyone he has ever seen.

The old man didn't think of the pestle at all: "what you said is right. I once looked like a fool, and even almost got possessed. But now I'm a lot bearish. Even if I still have some regrets, I won't go out to ruin the common people for my own sake."

"What are you?"

"How can you hold the horse down even if you are too stingy to hold it? But I've rehearsed it nine times before and after. Every time I think about it, the only vitality lies in the grass roots. "

"Only by integrating the power of the grass-roots as much as possible, can we have some chance to survive the great disaster in the future. Otherwise, there will be no life after ten deaths."

The old man's clear eyes looked at Lin Yi, candid, without any cunning.

Lin Yi pondered for a long time, looked up and asked, "why do you think I will tend to grass roots?"

Although he is a grass-roots cultivator to the letter, when it comes to cultivating his subordinates, Lin Yi actually prefers the elite route. The grass-roots route with rain and dew is not impossible, but it takes too much time, energy and resources. In the end, he gets half the result with half the effort, and some gains are not worth the loss.

The old man smiled and said, "because of what you have done, because you treat people equally, regardless of high or low."

"That's it?" Lin Yi was stunned.

"That's enough. That's your background. When the real choice is in front of you, I think you will eventually choose to trust the grass roots."

The old man was very confident about it.

Lin Yi smiled bitterly: "you are more confident than myself."
