Chapter 1: Director of the Dragon Slaying Bureau
The answer to this question is naturally sorry for the Patriarch and sorry for the Master.
In this situation, I am the only one left in the entire Tongbai Palace, and it is impossible for me to quit the Xuanmen because of her.
Perhaps, some people will say, it is because I don't love her enough.
I don't know how much I love her.
But I know that even now, we've been separated for years,
If she were to be in the same danger as she had been four years ago, I would risk my life to save him.
However, if I really die because I saved her, Tongbai Palace will be cut off, and I will still be sorry for the ancestors of the dynasties, and I will be sorry for the master.
Xuanmen and her,
The two always seem to be contradictory.
I don't know how to resolve this contradiction.
She and I parted ways.
Getting out of her car, I dragged my suitcase alone and went to the high-speed rail station.
When I arrived at the high-speed rail station, it was already past ten o'clock at night.
At night, the frequency of high-speed rail is much less, and the latest high-speed rail to H city is more than three o'clock in the morning.
I bought a ticket and entered the station.
The high-speed rail station in the middle of the night, even in a metropolis like S City, there are not too many people, and it seems very quiet.
I found a secluded place to sit down.
My heart is still very messy, I want to play with the phone for a while, for a while, but as soon as I unlocked it, I lost interest and locked it again.
At this moment, a tall, thin man in his forties, wearing a suit and gold-rimmed glasses, walked up to me.
He didn't bring any large luggage, just a very light black briefcase.
The man didn't look like a traveler.
He walked up to me, sat down in the seat next to me.
His shoulders almost hit mine.
Such a close distance is far less than the comfortable distance between people.
It made me very uncomfortable.
However, the seat he sat in was not mine, but public, and anyone could sit on it.
I can't say anything.
I pretended to go to the bathroom, stood up, took my suitcase, and was about to leave.
"Mr. Chen, don't you sit down for a while?"
The man suddenly stopped me.
"You know me?"
I turned to look at him.
He nodded, didn't say anything more, took out a black invitation from his black briefcase, and handed it to me with a smile.
I took the invitation, and I saw that on the cover of the invitation, there were five gilded characters - Xuanmen Thousand People Altar.
I opened the invitation and saw that it read:
"Send to Mr. Chen Danqiu in person:
The affairs of our bureau are heavy, and the current director is overwhelmed and overwhelmed, so I sincerely ask to return to the field.
At the request of the superior chief, our bureau invited the national Xuanmen to make great contributions, set up a thousand people's altar, and elected the new director.
I would like to invite Mr. Chen Danqiu to attend the event.
Joint Staff Zero Directorate. ”
I closed the invitation, frowned, and looked at the man.
The Zero Bureau of the Joint Staff Department is the official name of the Dragon Slaying Bureau in the military.
The general meaning of the invitation is:
The affairs of the Dragon Slaying Bureau are heavy, and the current director Kong, who is over 100 years old, is overwhelmed and wants to resign.
At the request of the higher-level chiefs, they now invite Xuanmen people from all over the country to participate in the Thousand Men Altar to elect the new director.
And among those who were invited was me.
But on the invitation card, it didn't say what this Thousand People Altar was?
How is the new director elected?
One person, one vote, voting?
And more importantly,
As one of the three elders of Xuanmen, although Kong Lao is old, his body has always been very tough, how could he suddenly "be overwhelmed and ask to return to the field"?
Could it be......
"You're from the Dragon Slaying Bureau?" I asked the person in front of me.
The man shook his head and said, "No. ”
I raised the invitation in my hand and asked him again, "Then how do you have an invitation to the Dragon Slaying Bureau?" ”
This person said: "The invitation of the zero game is not necessarily only available in the zero game, but also the superiors of the zero game. ”
"Superior? Are you from the Joint Staff? I continued to ask him.
He nodded.
"You don't want Kong Lao to continue to be the director of this Dragon Slaying Bureau?" I asked bluntly.
He smiled and didn't speak.
"Why?"
He still smiled and didn't speak.
Since I couldn't ask anything, I just returned the invitation to him.
I said: "I don't know what other people in the Xuanmen think of your approach, but I, I only recognize Kong Lao, the director of the Dragon Slaying Bureau. I don't recognize anyone else! ”
The man was not angry, handed me the invitation again, and said:
"Mr. Chen, don't be in such a hurry to refuse, listen to me, it's not too late for you to refuse.
Needless to say, the importance of Kong Lao to the zero game is something that everyone knows.
The head of our Joint Staff Department also greatly appreciated the work of Confucius.
But Kong Lao is old after all, someone has to take over.
Mr. Chen, you are a rare genius in Xuanmen for more than 100 years.
Our chief also admires you.
As long as you participate in this Xuanmen Thousand People Altar, you will definitely be one of the popular candidates for the new director of the Zero Bureau.
Our chief has already said that when the new director arrives, he will put more burden on the Zero Bureau and promote the director of the Zero Bureau from the rank of major general to the rank of lieutenant general.
Mr. Chen, don't you have that little bit of excitement? ”
I sneered and said, "I'm not interested in being an official!" ”
"Really?" The man smiled and asked,
"As far as I know, Mr. Chen, you and Miss Xu Mengyan just got along very well.
Miss Xu, I feel that your identity as a Xuanmen is unseemly and wants you to quit. But you won't. ”
"How do you know that?" I interrupted him and asked.
When I said this to Mengyan, it was in her car.
She was afraid that the driver would break the news to the paparazzi, and before saying this, she deliberately took the driver away.
It stands to reason that only she and I know about these things, and there can't be a third person who knows about them.
I interrupted him with a sudden interjection, and this person didn't seem to mind.
He continued: "We naturally have our way.
We also want to help Mr. Chen.
Mr. Chen, think about it, as long as you participate in the Thousand People Altar, become the new director of the Zero Bureau, and become a lieutenant general.
Isn't that better than going to QH University and getting a PhD?
And you don't have to quit the Xuanmen yet.
How good the ending of these two is.
Isn't it, Mr. Chen? ”
I was stunned, I really hadn't thought of it that way.
Now that I think about it, I think I'm really tempted.
It's like a poor man who has been hungry for three days and three nights, and suddenly sees a million on a street where no one is around.
It's false.
However, in the end, I refused.
The difference between humans and animals is that, in addition to the desire to survive and mate, humans also have morality.
If I accept it, I will be sorry for Kong Lao.
At five o'clock in the morning, I returned to H City.
It was around six o'clock in the morning, when I was sleeping soundly, my phone rang.
I glanced at it in a daze, it was Kong Lao's phone.
***********
It's been a long time since I've updated, and I'm really sorry for everyone.
I repent.
After repentance, I will say a few things.
The first one: Thank you for the careful reward of "17K book friend 5Z6Z2RLL".
