Chapter 118: Expectation
In the capital, Old Man Cheng was outside a secret room, constantly walking back and forth. The civil servant who was in charge of taking care of him quickly brought a chair and placed it next to him. Don't say anything, everything is silent anyway.
"Hmm!" Old man Cheng took a bite and expressed his gratitude to the civil servants. Then he sat down in his chair.
"When did Ziyang go in?" Old Man Cheng closed his eyes and tried his best to calm himself down before asking.
"Early this morning," the guard who was in charge of guarding the Cheng family's secret room hurriedly responded. "Da Shao doesn't know what's wrong, and suddenly he wants to requisition the secret room again? I didn't dare to doubt it, so I hurriedly opened the secret room. After he went in, he never came out. β
"Oh," Old Man Cheng listened and nodded. However, he was still a little puzzled and asked, "I remember that he was only promoted to the fourth level yesterday, so won't he start to be promoted again today?" That...... Can his body and bones resist it? β
The guard was a little old, but he was already a Level 3 Ability. Hearing what Old Man Cheng said, he thought for a while and then replied: "Old man, listening to what you say, there is really such a possibility!" β
"Da Shao's talent has been different from ordinary people since he was a child. Otherwise, those people in Xuanmen would not value him so much, and arrange everything for Da Shao. We can't even put our hands on it. β
"Uh-huh!" Old Man Cheng nodded more than once, still complaining in his mouth. "Fortunately, that Li Zhenhua died. Otherwise, this eldest grandson of mine is likely to become a member of the Xuanmen. β
"Master, it's impossible to say that!" The guard was the old man of the Cheng family, and he won the trust of the old man Cheng. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to guard such an important secret place of the Cheng family.
"Actually, I think Da Shao is fortunate to have the help of Xuanmen, think about it......"
"The coming of this end times must have been calculated by him through those gossip gods in Xuanmen. Let us have made early preparations and made all possible countermeasures in the army. And those people in the system don't believe in this, and they say that it is a fallacy. β
"As a result, you see now, I don't know how many families who have transitioned to the system have been wiped out. Of course, that's what they deserve. But after all, due to their mistakes, Huaxia lost nearly three-fifths of its population. β
"So, I don't think it's a bad thing for Xuanmen to help Dashao grow. At the very least, it has given Da Shao a lot of opportunities. Let Da Shao be far ahead before their generation gets up. β
"Take me as an example, I'm already at the third level of ability now, not to mention the capital, even if I can walk sideways in other bases, I didn't dare to come forward to stop me. But what am I in front of Da Shao? He only went up to level four yesterday, and maybe he'll be up another level today. β
"If it weren't for the education and guidance of the Xuanmen, he wouldn't have been able to master the trick of ability advancement so quickly! From this, I dare to conclude that when the young man takes over the uncle's class in the future, it will definitely be the most glorious day of the Cheng family. β
"Huh!" Old Man Cheng was also touted and couldn't help laughing. He slapped himself on the thigh and said, "Good boy, you're all level three." But I'm still spinning around on a second-level ability! β
"Old man," the guard was an honest man, so what he said was not flattering to many people. This is also the reason why the old man likes him the most.
The same cannot be said of this. Even if you don't have any abilities and are just an ordinary person, we have to obey you! Because your prestige has been established. The existence of the ability does not have the slightest gain or loss to it. β
"But not so much. If he relies on your prestige to establish his prestige, the Cheng family will not be able to grow. Therefore, only by relying on his own ability to create his own prestige, can the Cheng family survive for many more years. β
"Smack!" When Old Man Cheng heard this, he excitedly reached out and patted the guard's shoulder a few times.
"Good boy, I have the ability and my brain is open, and I can think so far." Old Man Cheng was full of emotion for a while. "I'm also old, and I don't think about things as long-term as when I was younger."
"I'm just afraid that Ziyang will be like his father and find a cowardly woman as his wife. As a result, if it weren't for this last days, my boss would still not know what it means to be filial piety in front of bed? Do I have to be cheeky and can't tell him? β
"He was my eldest son, and he gave birth to such a promising eldest grandson. If I don't give him this inheritance, who else can I give it to? Did he really think I would give it to the second or third child? β
"If I do that, what will Yang Er do? I just have a long brain, and I don't dare to self-destruct my house so much! β
"The reason why I stayed in the capital with Ziyang was not because I really wanted to force him to improve the level of any ability, but because I was afraid that he would find another woman like his mother to come back. After all, there have been three generations of my Cheng family who have not had a suitable woman to support the faΓ§ade. β
"Alas!" In this regard, the guards also sighed. "Old man, this may be fate!"
"However, I don't think it's bad to find a cowardly woman as a wife. Look at Da Shao, if you can give birth to a child who is exactly like him, it is a cowardly woman who has turned into mud, I think it will be okay. β
"I've heard someone say," the guard moved closer to Old Man Cheng, and his tone was a little excited. "The lifespan of a person who activates the ability is forty or fifty years longer than the average person. Old man, if the eldest young man marries a woman and comes back and gives birth to a child, you will bring it with you, and you may be trained to become the second eldest young man. In that way, the Cheng family will be able to prosper for a hundred years. β
"Uh-huh!" Old Man Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, revealing a strange look.
Perhaps, the Cheng family doesn't need any good women to support the faΓ§ade at all. Because no matter how suitable a woman is, it is not as important as cultivating a powerful child or grandchild. β
"Oh, too!" Now, Old Man Cheng is no longer obsessed, and he can't stop nodding in agreement. Apparently, he has accepted this point of view of the guards. "Also, the kiln is broken and a good tile is produced!"
Cheng Ziyang couldn't hear a word about the remarks outside the secret room. At the moment, he was in the midst of contemplative meditation.
Last night, with the joy of his success, he quickly fell asleep.
So, in his dream, he saw again the scene he had encountered countless times: many people gathered to congratulate him on his success and congratulate him on becoming the king of mankind.
However, there was a woman who always stood quietly by his side, protecting him, giving him advice, and even being born and dying. He was so moved that he made the most sacred covenant of companionship with this woman.
Gradually, many women rushed to his side. He also did not refuse to come. Anyway, he left the most important position around him to this woman.
However, so many women are beautiful and gentle, and there is even a woman named Concubine Zu who discovered that silkworms are used to spin silk to make delicate and gorgeous silk. Gradually, he forgot about the most important woman around him into the corner.
Due to the advent of silk, his reign reached its peak, and he increased his favor for his ancestors. This woman was a little unaccustomed to it, so she scolded her ancestor in front of him. He was angry and insulted the woman.
In this way, with a cold look, the woman walked out of the luxurious palace he had built, and threw herself into the mountains and forests.
Without the woman's restraints, he began to act recklessly. Countless beauties were sent into his palace for his pleasure and for him to enjoy.
Finally, one day, the ancestor came to him, prostrated himself to him, and begged him to give up his throne to her son. Looking at the crow's feet eyes, listening to her weeping pleading, he smiled.
"It's a pity that I never thought of leaving my throne to your son," he stood up, looking coldly at his ancestor who was kneeling on the ground.
"Why?" The ancestor screamed. "My son is also your son!"
Hearing this, he was like five thunderbolts. He looked at the ancestors who had passed away, and then looked at the beauties in their prime beside him. Suddenly, he realized.
It turns out that these women adore him for a reason. The ancestor admired him because he controlled the world, and longed for himself and his bloodline to continue this control. Those beautiful girls need this palace to reflect their extraordinary life experience.
Unfortunately, he is the owner of this palace. Therefore, those beauties are going to flatter him and provide him with all kinds of perfect enjoyment...... The only sad thing is that he will never grow old, and the beauties will eventually twilight.
Until this time, he finally knew that there was only one woman, and it was not everything around him who loved him, let alone his unsurpassed power in the world, but him! He had to go to her, apologize to her, confess his mistakes to her, and beg for her forgiveness!
So, he used the Zen system to make a smooth transition of power in his hands, ignoring the almost crazy actions of his ancestors, because he did not give the throne to her son.
Then he took off his magnificent royal robes, changed into the robes he had originally wore, and left the palace to find the woman. In this way, he was left everywhere.
Finally, among the green waters and green mountains, he found this woman. However, the look that this woman threw at him was cold and ruthless. Even in order to avoid his pursuit, he threw himself into reincarnation.
He was overwhelmed with grief and felt that there was nothing to love in life. So, he also threw himself into the reincarnation of that world.
However, reincarnated again and again, which inspired his nature as a human king, did not allow him to capture the traces of that woman's reincarnation. Gradually, he realized that he really had no fate with her. The heart that longed for her was slowly cold,
In this life, the Creator finally took pity on him and gave him a chance to reunite with this woman. It's just that the woman's desireless gaze made his fiery heart feel afraid: will she reject herself again, and from now on, never again?
Still, he still had to try, and still reached out to the woman, pleading with his mouth: "Xiao ......"
