Chapter 116: Voting
"What is voting?" Everyone was talking, Mu Jing, Jin Chi and Ma Ge, three who had a voting experience, helped to explain, and soon everyone understood.
"It's like the Roman Senate!" Titus was excited.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Zhang Bai continued: "Regarding the candidates for going to Peshawar this time, first of all, the king and I have a mission and must go; Of the rest, we'll have to decide who will stay with Ctesiphon. Let's hear what everyone thinks!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and most people actually didn't have any opinions. Mu Jing opened her mouth first, reiterating her intention to stay in the local area and cover the king's tracks. Zhang Bai was noncommittal after hearing this, and asked, "Who else has an opinion?"
"I'm willing to stay," Brother Ma also spoke: "There is no other reason, you know that I have been promoted, but I have not been promoted yet? Hey, hey, somebody has to stay anyway. β
Dao Lao, Zilax, Shu Han and the others were all soldiers, and they nodded in understanding when they heard him say this.
"I like the boat, I don't want to leave it, I follow the boat. Jin Chi also expressed his opinion. Dao Lao saw that everyone clarified their wishes, so he also said, "I also want to follow the boat, for the same reason as him." Dao Lao showed his envy of flying before, and once promised to make a bet with Zhang Bai that Zhang Bai would not be able to defeat the Immortal Army alone, and if he won, he would be the captain of the ship, but unfortunately he couldn't do it. Zhang Bai remembered the gambling contract and smiled.
"I also wish to stay," Pasha spoke, "I am not interested in Kushan, and the Zoroastrians of Ctesiphon are not yet completely stable, and I wish to stay and continue to contact them." Zhang Bai nodded, this is also needed.
Both Zerax and Hetri wanted to stay in Ctesiphon, but Titus wanted to stay in Seleucia to open a medical center, which was of course opposed by Zhang Bai.
"You can't keep that many people here, you still need people on the ship! Especially the doctor, I have other arrangements for you. β
"Oh ho ho you have a plan for me? We Romans are not slaves, and we will not let anyone else arrange my future. "I didn't expect Titus to come and spin up.
actually called himself a child, and now Zhang Bai also axed: "But if you stay here to open a medical center, it is equivalent to leaving our team, and you may lose money if you open a medical center." β
"It's simply impossible. You don't know medicine, my medical skills are ahead of the whole of Rome, the whole Mediterranean, the whole Far East, the whole ......"
No matter how good your medical skills are, as long as you dare to disembowel the patient, wait for the patient's relatives to cut off your head! I look at you...... Oh, I see. That's probably why you didn't make any money in Rome, and you had gambling debts, so you escaped from Rome, right?"
"I... I protest ... Protest! Your slander against me must stop. β
One of these two is chattering, and the other is a little kid, and the quarrel makes people laugh. Dao Lao said loudly: "You two don't quarrel, don't you have a way to vote? β
"I agree, according to Roman custom, we form the Senate. Titus agreed on the spot, looking elated, like a quarrelsome man. Zhang Bai can see it, and he dares to love this guy purely because he wants to be addicted to being a patriarch of the Roman Senate.
"I don't agree to vote, I can't follow this guy's will!" Zhang Bai roared like thunder.
"It's a rule you've made, you can't break it yourself!" said Daolao, who continued to persuade. Mu Jing was laughing on the side, and his stomach was about to hurt from laughter.
"Look at you, you're already the sect leader, and you still look like a child, it's really naΓ―ve!" Titus still didn't give up, "Let's all vote quickly! Why bother with this guy, I'll vote first, I'll vote against." β
As soon as Titus's voice fell, the people next to him laughed, laughed, and accused him of foolishness. But the vote went on, and all voted against, including Titus himself, and everyone voted against.
Titus, very happily, behaved like a Roman gentleman, and bowed to the people, saying, "I will firmly support the decision of the Senate!"
Looking at his cheap appearance, everyone else was almost foaming at the mouth.
"I don't like the way you vote, it's just a mess. The voice of King Aldaban V's younger brother complained to Zhang Bai that he did not have much sense of humor. Zhang Bai, who was huffing, nodded very resolutely and agreed: "You are so right, you deserve to be the king." β
The candidates for stay were determined in the chaos, and Mu Jing, Ma Ge, Pasha and Zirax remained in Ctesiphon. Zhang Bai and King Ardaban V led Jin Chi, Daolao, Hetri and three Shu generals, plus a chatter doctor. Set off in two spaceships and rush to Peshawar, the capital of Kushan.
Once again, the crowd voted to determine the time of departure of the ship, which was the next night.
This afternoon, Zhang Bai was tossed very lightly, and after he sent the king secretly into the palace to rest, he returned to his room, and at this time he felt that his limbs were about to be torn apart.
He hurriedly went to bed and lay down for a while, although he had been shopping and practicing with Mu Jing in his dreams every night recently, he had never been sleepy when he woke up, and it seemed that this kind of practice did not take up rest time at all.
Now that Mu Jing is not there, he is just confused.
It's just a little squinting, and after a while, you have to finish eating, and there is the hometown of the beautiful goddess Big Moon, the magic capital?
He woke up again by the river in the magic capital, the river was flowing silently, the moon was very close to the ground, the river was shining, and it seemed to reflect the craters on the surface of the moon one by one.
He was already too familiar with this place, and every time he came every day at night, he wondered if this dream was real, because it was too real, although he didn't know what the magic capital had become, but this dream was still terrifyingly real.
Mu Jing was not here today, and he decided to wander around alone.
