Chapter 393 The Temptation of Knowledge 2



After being tormented by Dongfang Long for quite some time, Yuehui looked at him on her way back and said, "You don't need to come tomorrow." Upon hearing this, Dongfang Long nodded, but then took out a book from his pocket.

"What is this?" He couldn't help but frown as he looked at it. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms..." He frowned as he looked at it, while Dongfang Long smiled.

"This is the first volume. You're probably bored here, so this is a good way to pass the time," Dongfang Long said, looking at the moonlight. "Of course, if you can't read, you can find someone to teach you."

"Get lost, I don't need it." Yuehui said coldly when she heard Dongfanglong's words. Dongfanglong smiled, put down the book and left. Looking at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms left by Dongfanglong, Yuehui couldn't help but frown.

But I still picked it up and started reading. There's a saying: "If you don't read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, you won't know what a hero is." The charm of Romance of the Three Kingdoms lies in the strategists and the debates among the three kingdoms.

Under these circumstances, even many of the beastmen and young beastmen in the Tiger Clan tribe liked it. In their words, some people liked Cao Cao's ruthlessness, while others liked Liu Bei.

Of course, every character and every person has their fans. People like Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu are all well-liked. Every character in the story is flesh and blood.

At this moment, as Yuehui held this book, he was destined to be unable to fall asleep because of the second volume, while Dongfang Long was also waiting for Yuehui to read the first volume.

Yuehui had to admit that he was indeed the person in charge of a stronghold. Even under such circumstances, reading books was not difficult for him. Although there were words he did not recognize, he could still guess.

Even if it was just a fluke, the Three Kingdoms period was still very attractive. As Yuehui watched, she couldn't help but become suspicious, and after finishing the first episode, she couldn't resist going back to watch it again.

For two days, Yuehui savored the book, eating, sleeping, and then reading again. When Dongfanglong went to see Yuehui, he remarked, "Why do you look so haggard..."

"Are you satisfied now?" Yuehui's expression darkened upon hearing this. "What you left behind is truly remarkable." Even if he didn't want to admit it, Yuehui had to acknowledge that this thing was incredibly alluring.

The battles, the strategies, and the development of each character in the story truly made my heart clench in many situations, as I followed the plot's development.

Of course, there was also a question: "Where is the second volume?" Yes, where is the second volume? Upon hearing this, Dongfang Long smiled and looked at Yuehui.

"The second volume will only be available after you come out. Let's go... I'll take you to see the commercial district." He said, looking at Yuehui, who couldn't help but frown as she looked at Dongfang Long.

He nodded when he looked at Dongfang Long, but didn't mention the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Although he was itching to read it, Yuehui wasn't stupid and knew it was a trap.

Yuehui didn't want to foolishly fall into the trap, so she could only endure it all and follow Dongfang Long to see the world. Dongfang Long smiled when he saw Yuehui's reaction.

When Yuehui arrived at the commercial district with Dongfanglong, she was shocked once again. The commercial district was even more luxurious, and it wasn't just that. There were roadside stalls and many vendors hawking their wares, but also transactions, which was almost like a trade fair.

However, transactions here are conducted using money. Suddenly, looking at the procession not far away, those people were all of different races. They were all wearing similar clothes, and each of them walked with a similar gait. Not only that, but they also walked with their heads held high and chests out as they passed through the street.

People around immediately looked away when they saw this race. If nothing was wrong, Moonlight knew that the thing hanging on the race's waist was iron. It was a waste for the Tiger Tribe to have iron on them.

However, he quickly realized that the orcs of the Tiger Tribe seemed to be equipped with combined iron tools, so he didn't think there was much of a problem. After looking at the business not far away, Yuehui didn't say anything.

Suddenly, he saw a bookstore not far away. "What is that place?" He had heard that the bookstore was a place he knew, and that the paper used in his stronghold was purchased from the Tiger Tribe.

Although the Turtle Tribe had tried it before, it didn't work well, so they had to give up and choose to use the Begonia paper instead. When Yuehui looked at those things, she felt that the world was really unfair. None of the beastmen in the Tiger Tribe were good people, so why did they end up getting more than anyone else?

Seeing this, Yuehui and Dongfanglong went to a place to sit down and eat. Yuehui watched Dongfanglong order food and immediately nodded. Yuehui frowned as she watched this.

"Are those slaves?" Yuehui asked as she looked at them. Upon hearing this, Dongfanglong shook his head.

“They’re not slaves, they’re employees here. The businesses here are all run by this tribe. Of course, there are also shops that are the private property of this Tiger Tribe. However, for these businesses, you have to pay for the space yourself before you can open a shop…” Dongfang Long said as he looked around.

"If they're not slaves, then what are they? Employees...aren't they still serving people?" Yes, they're still serving people. He couldn't help but sneer as he watched those people serving tea and water, but he was soon surprised when he saw that there were orcs among them.

"This place is for employees, which means they can earn money. It's not just for people of different races; there are also orcs who were injured in conflicts with other tribes and have been assigned here." Nine out of ten orcs who have retired from the legion will be assigned to work first.
