Chapter 159: Curved Horizon (1/2)

The wizard's voice was cold: "In the future, you can get rid of this problem of answering without thinking." If the sky is round, then isn't the place where they meet not match? ”

Wen Ling took a lesson, thought for a while, and then replied: "The earth is surrounded by the ocean, and the sea bends out and meets the sky. ”

The sorcerer asked, "Why doesn't the sea fall without the earth?" Why doesn't the round sky fall and smash to the ground? ”

Wen Ling opened his mouth and stammered.

Suddenly, the wizard said, "Look into the distance." ”

Wen Ling looked into the distance, and he noticed that they had flown very, very high, so that everything on the ground was blurry and could no longer be seen clearly.

"See that line? The place where the sky connects with the earth is called the horizon. It's 15,000 meters in the air, and you should be able to tell that the line has a slight arc. ”

After listening to the wizard's words, Wen Ling looked at the horizon seriously, indeed, as the wizard said, this line bent down slightly, could it be that the earth was bent?

"There are a lot of secrets buried in this world." The wizard said to him, "Go explore, you will find a lot of unexpected things, you can continue to develop in the direction of water, and you can also explore new areas." Everything, but as you like. My only request is that when you reach the age of twenty-five, you should apply to leave the palace and become a teacher, so that the interest in exploring the laws of this world may spread among the human race. ”

"Then, when you become a qualified teacher, I will come to you again and let you recover the memories of your past life. Zhu Yao. ”

They fell down quickly, Zhu Yao felt a burst of dizziness, the whole person seemed to have lost weight, and his chest was stuffy and uncomfortable.

"Let's get some sleep." He heard the wizard say to him, and then he lost consciousness.

When Wen Ling came to his senses again, he was back in the palace.

His parents and attendants couldn't find him, and they were in a hurry. Now, when he suddenly appeared from the palace, Wen Yu was surprised and relieved, and hurriedly asked for warmth. And Yan Yi was still outside with people looking for her, and Wen Yu sent someone to call her.

When Wen Yu asked where Wen Ling had gone, Wen Ling thought for a moment before replying:

"Father, today, it was the gods who took me out."

"What gods?" Wen Yu asked in surprise.

"I don't know...... But, father, there's something I want to ask you forβ€”"

"From now on, I don't want to be the heir to the throne, father, I have what I want to pursue. Please let my brother succeed him. ”

Wen Yu was stunned for a while, then took a few steps back and sat down on the chair.

A strong sadness swept up in his heart, in fact, he had long thought that there might be such a day, since Wen Ling was more than two years old, he and Yan Yi had been trying to avoid this result. He has been guiding Wen Ling's growth and making him a worthy heir to the throne, however, he still can't stop what he fears the most.

Wen Ling is not a mortal, he and Yan Yi know each other.

However, Wen Yu still struggled reluctantly, and he said:

"What's wrong with you? Your brother is still young, and in terms of talent, he is not as good as yours. You have been cultivated by me and your mother for many years, and now you have become a qualified heir, if you give up, is it fair to us? You have abandoned your responsibilities, what will Jing Guo do? ”

Wen Ling lowered his head and was silent for a while before he said, "But father, if you don't let me do what I really want to do, is it fair to me?" And I thought about it, Jing is now a strong country, there is no need to use military force to expand externally, although the younger brother is young, but from now on, even if he has no great achievements in the future, he can at least be a king who keeps it. ”

While the father and son were discussing, Yan Yi also hurriedly entered the house, rushed over and hugged Wen Ling in his arms.

Wen Ling felt her mother's warmth, but she just sighed.

Wen Yu said: "You persuade your son!" He doesn't even want to be an heir! ”

Yan Yi asked about the situation, and was stunned for a long time like Wen Yu, and then hugged her son and burst into tears.

However, even if the parents tried their best to dissuade them, they could not change Wen Ling's determination.

His eyes had been opened up by the wonderful experience of that day, and now, even the throne of Jing Kingdom could not keep his heart.

In 234, the old King Jing abdicated, and Wen Yu succeeded him as the new King of Jing. Subsequently, Wen Yu's second son Wen Yuan was named the crown prince, and Wen Yuan was 18 years old at the time.

Among the royal family, there has always been a lot of inclination, Wen Yuan was originally an ordinary but cautious person like his father, but since he really became the crown prince, there have been many and mixed people around him.

There are always some people who instigate in Wen Yuan's ear for their own purposes, telling him that ordinary people may still have brothers' true feelings, but the Wang family absolutely does not, he and his eldest brother are rivals, and he can't not take precautions in advance because his eldest brother seems to let go.

Some people even told him that his father originally belonged to Wen Ling, and even thought that Wen Ling's talent was far superior to Wen Yuan, and his cultivation of Wen Ling was also the best, but Wen Yuan was very average. Even if Wen Ling doesn't come to fight for the throne now, there is no guarantee that he will suddenly want the throne in the future.

As long as Wen Ling is back on track, Wen Yuan can be said to be unable to keep the position of prince.

The words of instigation are indeed true, but those people and Wen Yuan ignored one point, that is, since Wen Ling was already a sure heir back then, why did he have to disobey his father, but also leave the palace and reject all positions of power.

Wen Yuan here is guarding Wen Ling strictly, but Wen Ling is living freely over there.

The 21-year-old Wen Ling was staying in the ruins of the former Dragon Kingdom, he always felt that he didn't know enough, but he didn't know where to look.

The experience of flying into the sky as a child was unforgettable, and later, after completely giving up the inheritance and gaining free access to the palace, Wen Ling often traveled far away.

He usually travels with only one maid and four guards, and carries a light suit. He was dressed plainly, and no one could even imagine that he was the eldest son of the king of the great country of Jing.

When Wen Ling returned from the ruins of the Dragon Kingdom, he felt the change in the atmosphere of the entire Jing Kingdom.

At that time, he just showed his face at his father's succession ceremony, coped with the congratulations of the courtiers, and hurried out of the country to visit the ancient places in Lihe City.

However, this behavior was interpreted by people with a heart as he did not dare to face the fact that his younger brother became the prince instead of him, and it was even said that he had a dark mind.

Wen Ling listened, but Yun smiled lightly and didn't pay attention to it at all.

However, it is true that most of the people who used to surround him have become increasingly distant from him.
