"Big brother, were we fooled by that kid?"

"Yeah, big brother, we've looked through this entire mountain, but we couldn't find the Rainbow Flower that brat talked about."

"Could it be that we found the wrong place?"

"This mountain is only this big. We have already searched this mountain twice, how can we be mistaken?" How about you go and look for it yourself? "

"What kind of joke is this? It's almost dark." If you want me to climb the mountain again, wouldn't that mean I'll die in the jaws of tigers and leopards? "

Due to the restriction on productivity, this era's wilderness still had many wild beasts. It was fine as long as they were armed in groups, no wild beast would dare to challenge the world's most powerful terrifying standing ape. But at night, walking alone in the deep mountains was no different from suicide.

As Guo Xiong listened to his brothers bickering, he also grew increasingly irritated.

Originally, he thought that it was luck that he didn't find the Rainbow Flower. After all, in such a large mountain, it would still take some luck to find a particular plant.

However, after returning to the predetermined place, Guo Xiong heard his brothers saying that they didn't encounter the Seven Colored Flowers Xiao Wen had mentioned. How could he not understand that the Seven Color Flower that Xiao Wen spoke of was something that he had randomly made up.

"How preposterous. If I were to go back today and not beat that brat up, it would be a waste for me to have been a ranger here for so many years. " Rangers were the names given to them by these local thugs and gangsters. For a long time now, Guo Xiong had been a travelling adventurer.

He wanted face, a sense of loyalty, a light life and death, and a shameless talk about money. Perhaps he might not be able to complete the last two, but the first two were still essential qualities that he needed to be a Ranger.

"Xiao Wen, just you wait!"

"Achoo!"

Walking on the main street, Xiao Wen suddenly sneezed. He looked at his surroundings and felt somewhat puzzled. Why would he suddenly beat someone up for a medical examination on such a hot day?

Was it because he had been exposed to the ice so long recently that he caught a cold?

Looks like I should pay more attention to my body from now on. Don't ruin your body before you earn enough money. It was not worth it.

"But now is not the time to worry about this. Right now, the most important thing is to consider how to do it in the future. "

After leaving the pharmacy, Xiao Wen had already been walking for quite a while. He watched the bustling crowd gradually become sparse, and he was very clear on his own situation.

Right now, he had the method to create ice cubes in the middle of a hot day, but he did not have the appropriate protective measures. In his previous life, there was a period where he was protected by patent law. Moreover, he had the authority and capital to usurp the patent through various means.

In this feudal society, this phenomenon would only make the bones more exposed, let alone pay attention to one's appearance.

Without any form of protection, he was undoubtedly a child in possession of the money. If he wasn't careful, he would be eaten to the point where not even his bones were left.

Even if he could finish Guo Xiong off silently this time, there would still be Liu Xiong, Li Xiong, Zhao Xiong, and Zhu Xiong who would try to rob him of his skills.

Therefore, at this stage, what he should be thinking of was not how to earn more money, but how to find a backer that could protect him.

"Back then, he was as strong as General Qi Jiguang, and was well-educated and well-educated. The level of the Qi Army was close to that of the modern soldiers. But he also had to rely on the castrates to be able to unleash his talents. Right now, my ability to protect myself is even worse than Qi Jiguang's. How can I not find someone to rely on? "

Although he was a transcender, he did not want to be attached to these guys who had read less than a tenth of the books he had read in his life. They did not understand chemical physics, and their maths was even inferior to third grade students. However, in the face of such a heavy reality, he still decided to find a backer.

"One day, I will rely on my own strength to establish my foothold in this world, no longer relying on others." Xiao Wen clenched his fists as he thought to himself.

The time and space in the era that Xiao Wen lived in seemed to have intersected with each other. Many heroes, regardless of what era they were born in, had gathered here.

The backer that Xiao Wen wanted to pay a visit to was also the County Magistrate. He was an extremely famous person in history …

A corrupt official!

"If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined that a Manchu official would actually become the prime minister of the Darkhan Kingdom." Looking at the plaque of the Grand Guardian's Estate, Xiao Wen couldn't help but curse in his heart.

The backer he was looking for was called the Tzu Tzu Chi Lu, but in the history of the Qing Dynasty, he had an even more resounding name — Hehen.

In the original history, he could be considered a powerful official in the middle stage of the Qing Dynasty, a merchant. This man is good at amassing money and has a shrewd and adept political method.

By marrying his son to the Tenth Princess of the Emperor Qianlong, he was able to amass enormous wealth in the name of the royal family. During his career, he owned a total of more than 300 banks and 75 pawnshops.

If financiers were all shameless vampires, then Heshen, this vampire, had probably already reached the level of a prince or even a true ancestor.

However, Xiao Wen had no other choice. In this county where Xiao Wen was located, there was no other family as powerful as the Hings Family. If he found another family to support, he might be able to stop the others, but he definitely wouldn't be able to stop the greedy Heshen.

"Excuse me, is the county governor here?" Xiao Wen asked as he looked at the guard dressed as a soldier of the Han Dynasty. Honestly speaking, he felt that the soldier's appearance was a bit comical.

He actually asked a soldier of the Han Dynasty if there was an official of the Qing Dynasty in the mansion behind him.

"Does this count as killing the officials of today's dynasty with the sword of Shang Fang from before?" Xiao Wen cursed in his heart.

And hearing Xiao Wen's words, the soldier was worthy of being a guard in the county governor's residence. He calmly asked Xiao Wen without the slightest arrogance: "Who are you? Why are you looking for the county governor? "

In fact, Xiao Wen was wearing a green scholarly robe. Even though the current emperor disliked Confucian Scholars so much that he had once peed in a Confucian scholar's hat, scholars were still scholars.

In this world, those who were able to read and write were always above others.

However, an angry voice suddenly came from behind Xiao Wen.

"Scoundrel Xiao Wen, you're actually here!?" "Let's see what happens if I don't beat you to death today and let you experience the consequences of deceiving me, Guo Xiong."

When Xiao Wen heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head when he felt the overwhelming killing intent behind him. He saw Guo Xiong's face darken as he quickly walked up to him, grabbed his clothes, and kicked him.

"I want to see who can have you today." A trace of a proud smile appeared on Guo Xiong's ferocious face. It was as if he had already eaten Xiao Wen today.
