222: Stop
In Long Yuan's view, when dealing with cultists who were both evil and hardworking, it was impossible to rely on mere do-gooders or benevolent people to defeat them.
Goodness and kindness could only measure a person's moral standards, but they could not measure a person's ability to get things done.
If you didn't think as much as others, didn't do as much as others, and didn't have as much in-depth planning as the cult, then how could you possibly defeat them?
The so-called 'righteousness prevails over evil' was nothing more than an empty slogan.
To defeat the cult, one must, while maintaining a certain level of moral standards, be worse, more cunning, more ruthless, and more driven than them.
You had to think more, think deeper, and plan further ahead and with more strategy; otherwise, you could only watch helplessly as the cult grew more and more prosperous...
For example, the reason Fengyang was able to easily crush the Blood Wolf Hall's plan this time was because Long Yuan was playing a big game behind the scenes.
If it weren't for his early intervention, I fear Fengyang would have suffered unimaginably heavy losses!
Just the disappearance of so many middle school students would have triggered a terrible disaster, and if the cultists had released the exotic beasts from Tong Jingshan's five beast-rearing bases, then the entire Fengyang would have faced a catastrophe...
"Long Yuan, what are you thinking about?" Xu Ruoying's voice came over.
The two were currently recording songs in a studio that the Qin Family had spent a huge sum of money to build.
What they were recording, of course, were the ten songs Long Yuan had previously sung at the Fengyang No. 1 High School concert.
It had to be said that the Qin Family had invested heavily this time, making the studio's effects comparable to about 70% of those at Shidai Tianyin Company.
This was already extremely rare; after all, the Qin Family's foundation was too poor, and no matter how much they improved it, it was difficult to reach a top-tier level.
"Nothing much, just brewing the emotional foundation for singing, so I was imagining the battlefield scenes on the Northern Front Line right now..." Long Yuan said.
Xu Ruoying's eyes widened upon hearing this, and then she said excitedly: "Long Yuan, you are truly so dedicated! No wonder you can sing so well and have touched all of our hearts!"
Long Yuan felt ashamed in his heart and said: "Isn't it said that if you want to move others, you must first move yourself? So I just did a little psychological preparation, it's nothing..."
"If you want to move others, you must first move yourself... Oh my, Long Yuan, why do I feel that your words always come in sets, they make so much sense..."
"There's still the last song, 'Strong Army War Song', let's record it now!" Long Yuan changed the subject.
"Hmph, then let's start!" Xu Ruoying rolled her eyes at him and returned to her seat.
Long Yuan entered the recording booth, signaled the sound engineer, and began recording...
The process went very smoothly. After a while, this song was also recorded, and the entire recording task was completed with Perfection!
Xu Ruoying was overjoyed looking at these ten discs. With these ten songs, wouldn't she be ready to take off right where she stood at Shidai Tianyin Company?
"Long Yuan, your sister is in a good mood today, I'll treat you to a late-night snack tonight!" Xu Ruoying said happily.
"There's no need for a late-night snack. I'm a bit tired today and need to go back and rest. You shouldn't stay out too late either!" Long Yuan said, then quickly slipped away.
"Hey, be careful!" Xu Ruoying stomped her feet in annoyance and shouted at Long Yuan's retreating back.
Long Yuan waved his hand, quickened his pace, and soon disappeared from everyone's view...
Qin Fu Yi looked at the discs in Xu Ruoying's hand and drooled, saying: "Princess, could you let this old man make a copy to keep? Just one copy, it will never be leaked!"
"If you want to copy it, go ahead, but if it leaks from your side, you know the consequences!" Xu Ruoying hummed.
"Princess, rest assured, this old man naturally understands this. I just want to keep them as a collection," Qin Fu Yi quickly said.
"You're quite clever. This is the lossless version, and the number of times each disc can be copied is extremely limited. It's much better than those downloaded from the internet, it really is worth collecting!" Xu Ruoying laughed.
"Haha, the Princess is right! With Long Yuan's heavenly singing voice, only this lossless version can perfectly reflect it. I feel that now, as long as I hear Long Yuan's singing, my whole body is filled with strength and fighting spirit, I can't wait to go to the front line and charge into battle!" Qin Fu Yi laughed loudly.
"Oh? Do you really have that feeling?" Xu Ruoying was taken aback.
"Of course it's true! Didn't the Princess see the atmosphere at the concert? If it weren't for everyone's limited strength and the fact that we are too far from the North, I fear they would have gone to support the front line while listening! I feel that after people in some Northern bases hear Long Yuan's songs, there will definitely be people who will voluntarily go to the front line to participate in the battle!" Qin Fu Yi said sincerely.
"Mm-hmm, I agree with your view! These songs are not only good to listen to, but also very inspiring and can boost morale. The fact that they can directly top the charts today has already proven this! I can't wait to go back to Shuntian Prefecture so that the people of Daming can hear these high-quality recorded songs as soon as possible..." Xu Ruoying sighed.
Qin Fu Yi quickly took the discs to make copies, while Long Yuan, after leaving the Qin Family's recording studio, went directly out the east gate of Fengyang City and headed quickly towards the wilderness!
On the way, he directly called Geng Yun...
"Long Yuan? What's the matter?" Geng Yun asked directly after answering.
"Uncle Geng, can you contact the principal of Nanming No. 1 High School?" Long Yuan said.
"Nanming No. 1 High School? The principal? Although I'm not very familiar with him, I can contact him!" Geng Yun pondered.
"Okay! Then help me give him a reminder: don't let students go to the wilderness for combat practice during this period. The reason is that Blood Wolf Hall has targeted his students and wants to use this opportunity to capture them to act as medicine testing tools. Also, tell him it's best not to make too much noise, just find an excuse to suspend practice, because one of the teachers is a latent member of Blood Wolf Hall!" Long Yuan said quickly.
"What? Is there such a thing?! No problem, I'll find a way to contact the school's principal immediately!" Geng Yun immediately replied. He no longer asked Long Yuan how he knew this news; as long as it was what Long Yuan said, he believed it.
"Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Geng. We'll talk about the details when I get back!"
"Oh? Where are you going? When will you be back?" Geng Yun was taken aback.
"I'm going to Shan Feng Forest, don't worry about me..." Long Yuan said, then hung up the phone directly.
Geng Yun stared at the phone in a daze. After snapping out of it, he immediately searched for a phone number, but he quickly came to his senses; it would be best to let the Xuanwu Guard handle this matter.
So, he found the Xuanwu Guards stationed in the county office and had them contact the Yingtian Prefecture Southern Division, and then had the Southern Division come forward to notify the principal of Nanming No. 1 High School.
After this series of operations, the information was quickly delivered to the principal of Nanming No. 1 High School. It was truly timely, because that group of teachers and students was just at the gate of Nanming City handling procedures to leave the city, and as a result, they were stopped directly!
This group of teachers and students were all dumbfounded. They didn't expect that the combat training plan they had planned for a long time would fall through just like that, without even hearing a clear reason. Each of them had quite a few complaints, but they didn't dare to do anything to the principal...
