Chapter 227: Things Happen for a Reason
The atmosphere became awkward, and we all fell silent, and the carriage kept jolting along the road, and only the sound of horses' hooves and wheels rolling, and the snorting of horses.
It seems that Chu Hong has already decided that I am a scumbag, and I can't justify my innocence in this matter, because she doesn't want to give me a chance at all, maybe from the moment she contacts Su Mei, the subtle feeling between me and her will be gone, even if she really had some thoughts about me before, it will definitely disappear with Su Mei's small report.
I'm very frustrated, and I also feel that I have no backbone, and I'm also a little ignorant, now Wen Ru and the old turtle have disappeared mysteriously, Guo Jinhai has run away with people again, although Zhou Qi was killed, but he also died at the hands of the tyrannosaurus, strictly speaking, although I barely won this battle, but I also won without face, and now it is unknown whether the tree god will resurrect Zhu Chaomeng.
I feel that I should pay attention to these, and I should not have a headache in the entanglement of these children's love, thinking of this, I sighed secretly, feeling that being a man is too tiring and troublesome.
Chu Hong remained silent, but she was still touching her face along the way, it was estimated that the wound was not recovering well, and the carriage traveled for more than ten minutes, Chu Hong finally couldn't help but break the deadlock in a dull mood: "Zhao Pu, do you really plan to stay and live?"
In view of her indifference, I also smiled indifferently: "That's okay, I can at least be a demigod here, and there are people everywhere who respect me, it's better than going back to being someone else's dog." ”
Chu Hong sighed and shook her head: "I knew you would think like this! You are like this, you have no ambitions to get by, it is difficult to succeed like you." “
Speaking of this, a contemptuous smile appeared on her face: "But it's normal, this place has delicious food and beautiful women, and you don't have to compete with others, how happy you are here." “
Listening to her round of cynicism, I couldn't help but pierce her fantasies: "Don't you understand after watching the video? Do you think you will leave here safely? Now Guo Jinhai has abandoned you, they don't have a rescue fleet at all! I think the only hope that can go back now is the ships in the pirate area." ”
Speaking of this, I also shook my head and looked at Crimson with a sneer: "This time they took the fruit to change ships but they didn't succeed, it is estimated that next time they will rob the ship, those pirates are definitely not fuel-efficient lamps, and there will definitely be a fierce battle at that time." ”
Sure enough, worry appeared on Chu Hong's face: "Then according to what you say, we all have to be trapped on the island?"
I couldn't help but laugh proudly: "If you want to get the ship, I guess you still have to rely on me! I'm a demigod now, and the gods will give me more tests, I think after these tests, my divine power will definitely be upgraded, and when the time comes, it will definitely be a little KS to grab the ship or something!"
Speaking of this, I glanced at her meaningfully: "Although my wretched scumbag is useless outside, I am a strong man on this island! When the time comes, I will find a chance to return to the outside world, I must bring down Guo Datong, and I will let those two losers watch me destroy his Guo family with my own eyes! Doesn't he want to live forever? I just want him to die!"
After hearing what I said, Chu Hong still looked contemptuous: "There is a saying that has been held in my heart for a long time! Zhao Pu, can you be more mature? Do you think this thing is funny? Do you know how many employees Guo Datong has? How much life and household expenses do these employees have to bear? Do you know that if you collapse Guo Datong, you will destroy tens of thousands of families! Moreover, you are not afraid to flash your tongue if you brag about these! Don't you know that his Guo family is a multinational enterprise? Even if you bring down his domestic company, there are companies overseas! And their family is involved in far more than transportation and manufacturing, they are also involved in the high-tech field and have high-level contacts with high-level people from various countries.
Chu Hong's words detonated my anger again, I don't know why, since Su Mei gave her a burst point, she and I haven't said anything good! We basically quarrel every time we meet! I can't help but sneer: "No matter what, I will bring down his Guo family! Just wait and see! I will definitely destroy the Guo family to you!"
Chu Hong looked at me, shook her head in disappointment, she stroked a handful of sideburns and broken hair, sighed long, and there was unspeakable sadness in her clear eyes: "Zhao Pu, it seems that you don't want to go back! Don't worry, I will definitely tell Dong Zhou about this after I go back, and the company will definitely give you a reward, if you can't come, I will transfer the reward to your family." ”
The atmosphere was embarrassing again, the carriage continued to move forward, the anger in my heart was still burning strongly, I didn't expect that I, who was loved by the God Protector Clan after being a god, was still scorned by Chu Hong! I thought that I would gain her favor in these life-and-death fights, but I didn't expect that in her eyes, I was just a hooligan-like fight!
And she doesn't care about my lies at all, which means that she doesn't have me in her heart anymore! Or maybe she hasn't taken me to heart all along, and what I've done is just wishful thinking!
Thinking of this, my heart is sour, bitter and spicy, maybe even if I really ruin Guo Datong, it must be worthless childish behavior in her eyes!
Finally returned to the sacred tree, Chu Hong didn't want to live on the first floor with me, she insisted on leaving to live in other places, I felt very uncomfortable, but I couldn't control this matter, so I had to go with her, standing on the wide balcony I didn't rush into the room, thinking of Wen Ru and the old turtle, so I quickly took out the whistle and blew it, but no one answered after blowing for a long time!
My heart was heavy for a while, and I didn't know where Wen Ru and the old turtle went!
I thought about it before, when Wen Ru and the old turtle were fighting, many wild people saw it, if they left, someone would definitely see it, I always thought that they were fighting and running back to the sacred tree, it seems that this matter is not as simple as I imagined.
Just when my heart was in chaos, Hui Dai's voice sounded softly behind me: "Zhao Pujun, are you back?"
Seeing the beautiful Huidai, my heart warmed a lot, hum! Chu Hong ignored me, I am not a person who lacks beautiful women!
I smiled at her, "Keiyo, I want to ask you for a favor, I want to meet the elder!"
Eyo asked me to eat something first, I was indeed hungry, so the wind and clouds ate a lot of food, after seeing that I was full, Edai asked me how I had fought with great care, I told her the results of the fight as briefly as possible, Medai was very frightened to hear it, she also wanted to check my wounds, but I couldn't care so much about the time short, I asked her to hurry up.
I took the elevator and soon arrived at the Elder Temple, but Keiyo was not qualified to enter that floor, so he had to wait for me at the elevator.
The Iron Guards were still standing at the door, the ghosts and treacherous reapers were still on both sides of the temple, and the Elder was sitting majestically on the Iron Throne, and the piercing of the golden ring on his body was still shocking, and it was strange to say that after a long time, I actually looked at the piercing on his body pleasing to the eye.
I bent down to salute him, and was about to speak, but the elder spoke first, "I know your purpose! You want to ask the old turtle and the curly-haired child about their whereabouts?"
I didn't expect him to know, so I nodded: "We were fighting at the time, and my brother and the old turtle were fighting together, so I didn't notice them." ”
"Don't look for it! I have already taken the old turtle, your friend is a little unclear after taking the medicine and wine, and it will take some time to recover. ”
The elder said very indifferently, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
I was a little stunned when I heard this, and I didn't turn my mind for a long time: "Why did you catch the old turtle? Could it be that you know that this duel was a trap planned by him?"
"Yes, I know!"
The elder rested his hands on either side of the throne, and his gold-dusted body made him look a lot like the pharaoh of ancient Egypt, and he felt that his temperament was still noble and majestic.
His voice was flat and emotionless: "The tree god warned me before, saying that the old turtle had objections and asked me to be more wary of him, so I have been paying attention to his actions, this time he joined forces with Zhou Qi to deal with you and was already seen by the tree god, so while he and your friend were doing it, I let people arrest him." “
Hearing this, my heart was on fire, since I knew early on that this duel was a deliberately set up killing array, why didn't you notify me in advance? I couldn't help but ask.
The elder's face was as stiff and stiff as a statue, and his voice was so calm that it was annoying: "I didn't tell you in advance, this is also what the Tree God meant! The previous test in the Transformation Tower was too hasty, and it just so happened that the killing array they arranged this time was very high-quality, so the Tree God wanted to see if you could pass this level, and now the answer is very satisfactory, you have passed the ultimate test! You are a qualified new god of the Protector Clan, in other words, you are my next successor!"
I don't want to be an elder!
As soon as I saw him covered in piercings, I couldn't stand it, so I quickly shook my head: "You must be mistaken, I didn't promise the tree god to be the successor at all, I just said that I could help him protect the god tree once!
I quickly argued that this was no joke, and I didn't want to be a leader here.
