371 A crisis within a crisis

What is the situation?

I saw a huge stone wall in front of Guchos, and in front of the stone wall was a large pool of water. The pool water is green and there is not much visibility.

Just now, Gu Qiaosi and Shangguan only became so embarrassed after they ran into a pond, and now the two really don't dare to go any further.

But sometimes people don't do things by themselves. Although the two didn't want to go any further, the large pile of loaches not far behind them flew in the air, looking at the excited movements and expressions on each loach's head, Shangguan and Guchos did not suspect that the other party would come up and burn themselves to the ground.

"No way, climb up." Shangguan was in Gu Qiaosi's arms, although he had no combat power at this time, but after feeling Gu Qiaosi's hesitation, he still knocked on his partner's chest and reminded him in time.

"Hmm." Gujos answered. After what happened just now, he did have the idea of resisting going underwater. Although there are not necessarily terrifying mechanical beasts lurking underwater, at least the loaches behind them are all coming out of the water.

If he went beneath the water, Guchos wasn't sure if he would be able to maintain his speed advantage.

Just that excuse was enough for Gujos to make a decision.

Guchos's feet were nimble and powerful, and he climbed up and down like a martial artist, and every time he landed he would drop into a crack in a rock, and he did climb very high and fast.

But when he was about to go up to the top of this "mountain", he heard a loud shout behind him, saying, "Break! Then the whole wall instantly turned into a large upside-down hand, and slapped him to the ground.

Guchos fell down in the air, and a few of the loaches that arrived first sprang at him, and he kicked them beautifully with his hands and feet.

"Hehehehehehe. It's not bad. At some point, the elder Jack, who was wearing a magic robe, was already standing on the top of the mountain, looking down at the two people who were badly injured with an expression of looking down at the plaything.

In this battle, Guchos was quite injured, and the blow just now was so heavy. How can he be depleted. But at the same time, Shangguan's situation was very miserable, after his armor was burned out, he was protected by Guchos like a girl.

To be honest, as a man, Shangguan has no intention or idea of being protected.

At this time, the great magician standing at the top of the cliff looked at the two people with a disdainful attitude, sneered, and said, "The two of you don't really feel it. Once you're in my Jack's Paradise, it's going to be so easy to get out. ”

When he said this, he was like a king in his own world, speaking in a very confident and domineering tone. He had no suspicion, he was the king of this paradise.

And this king obviously did not mean to let Shangguan and Guchos go.

His right hand flipped over, and behind Shangguan and Guchos, more than a dozen tiger-type beasts jumped out of the forest not far away. From a distance, you can see that this beast is a mechanical object made of steel. Although you can't tell what kind of material it is and what it does based on the appearance alone, you can definitely see it. These tigers are not easy to mess with.

In the sky, a group of mechanical eagles with unknown names flew out, and a few black snakes swam in the grass on the right.

Shangguan's least favorite thing was those snakes, he was naturally very unhappy with snakes, but at this time, he didn't have time to "worry" about them. He crooked his mouth. smiled bitterly and said, "Damn, it seems that people are using their blood." ”

Gujos bowed slightly and said, "If I die here today, please remember it for me." This is the last bow I will take. ”

Shangguan didn't care at all about the romance of these gentleman masters, and scolded, "I don't want to die here yet, so ...... Let's get on the mech. At the sound of an order, he jumped out of Guchos's arms, and when the whole person landed, the golden flower flashed, and after everyone's eyes were dizzy, he was already sitting in a mecha.

This mecha, also known as the Wolf of Gold, is a product of the same series as the armor just used.

"Really, it looks like there's a little bit of trouble." The Great Magician Jack said, and after finishing speaking, his body also flashed with colorful golden light, and he put away the armor in succession, and then also summoned a mecha of the same series.

"I may not be able to win with armor, but after I get on the mecha, I won't admit defeat." Shangguan's mecha roared in the air and flew quickly towards the sky where Jack was. But at the same time, the black wolves, long snakes, and loaches all jumped into the air one by one, and came with a big pinch.

"Broken!" Shangguan shouted, then pulled out the rocket launcher and fired at these strange mechanical creatures.

Rumble! Boom!

Explosions came in the air, but these monsters could not be killed. At the height of the battle, Jack's colorful mech joined the fray.

Jack's combat skills are very special, his mecha doesn't seem to have any weapons, but he hits out colorful lights and shadows with his bare hands, and these lights and shadows will actually hit the shield equipped by Shangguan physically, and leave real damage and traces on the shield.

"What the hell is this...... Shangguan said after reluctantly dodging the blow.

At the same time, Gu Qiaos had also changed into a mecha and rose to the same height, and when his apprentice was about to be unable to withstand it, he rushed forward to open the protective shield system of the golden steel wolf, and under a burst of strong light, the golden mecha surface lit up, and this sudden protective shield just blocked the attack that was originally going to hit the golden steel wolf driven by Shangguan.

Rumble!

Guchos was knocked over and down, but the guy still didn't forget to say, "Hey, I'm fighting now, if you don't want to die, hold me on." ”

"However, the other party is very strong......" Shangguan felt that he was suddenly aggrieved like a teenager.

That's right, the other side is really strong, really too strong. He and Guchos rushed recklessly into someone else's forbidden area, fighting each other in a place where others had already set up an ambush, and there should be nothing more stupid in this world. However, there is no regret medicine to take in this world, and now that this battle is here, it is not something that Shangguan or Guchos can suspend if they want to.

On the battlefield, the only principle is to rest until death.

Jack is also getting more and more fierce. His automatons seemed to be slowly finding their rhythm to attack, too. Of course, the pressure on Shangguan and Guchos is getting bigger and bigger.

"No, right...... In this case, it will soon be unbearable. Shangguan eagerly carried out the operation on his hands and feet, but it was also at this time that the private message communication channel on his mecha was connected, and Gu Qiaosi's usually casual playful voice said: "Don't do this, we have to go on." ”

"But, obviously we are at a disadvantage on the field...... We see the slightest hope of victory. Shangguan nagged again.

Unexpectedly, the always gentle Gujos scolded him. He said, "Shut up! ”

After this strong reproachful rebuke, Guchos fell silent. He also seemed to realize the excesses in his tone.

The two fought for a moment in a tired posture before Gujos continued:

"Shangguan, when I was young at your age, I was also a young man with a little talent. At the time, I thought I was very powerful, but after I actually went to the battlefield, I also found that the reality is not as beautiful as you think. At that time, I didn't work as a handyman for a while, and in addition to mecha training every day, I even had to do some things to collect documents and accompany my superiors to eat. Traveling with VIPs and other miscellaneous things, at that time I thought these things were very life-consuming things......" With a movement of Guchos's fingers, the mech made a slashing motion, and the shadow of a lightsaber instantly sliced through a loach in close proximity.

There was already a heavy pant in Guchos's tone, like a B-boy in a hot dance, dancing and talking.

Of course, it will be tiring. But what Gujos had to say seemed important, even in the midst of such a dire situation. He insisted on going on.

"At that time, I would also feel why I tried so hard and was not seen, and every day after work, when I got home, I would spend at least two or three hours studying the skills related to mecha piloting," he said. Even I make a determination to myself every day that I must become a strong pilot, because this is my dream. I want to enjoy the applause of others. I want people to know about me, and I think that's one of the best things in life. ”

Shangguan listened to the story while fighting. But on the other side of the battlefield, the magician Jack was furious, and he increased the intensity of those war beasts' attacks, and the intention was of course obvious, "You two are inking something, chatting while fighting, that's quite disrespectful to my behavior!" "With the acumen of a good pilot, he sensed that his opponent was talking while fighting.

However, although Shangguan and Guchos were under great pressure to fight at this time, the two did not stop talking to each other.

"But it didn't take long for me to find out at the suggestion of a friend of the opposite sex that I was just nagging. I always felt how unfair society and reality were to me, and I always felt that I was buried because I was talented, but when I watched a person around me get promoted, I realized that I was not suitable for this society. I didn't have strong interpersonal skills, and now I've lost even my true competitiveness, which is a long-lasting and dedicated effort. When I found out, I was twenty-six years old, and at that time, I was just an ordinary mech soldier. Doing the most inconspicuous work in the Mecha Guild. ”

Shangguan listened to such an emotional confession, although there were no ups and downs, and there were no too outstanding words, but he was already brought in by the truth in this sentence. He listened carefully to every word of Guchos, not wanting a single word of it.

"And then, I was down for a month. During that month, I was so haggard that I couldn't sleep every night, I got angry with my friends, I was anxious with my colleagues at work, and even my parents and teachers treated me badly to them. Gujos spoke of his past evil deeds, but he did not have the slightest tone of inferiority.

Because he knows that it is these bad things in the past, and the mistakes that have been made before. It is what he is now.

There are still a lot of disadvantages to this, but-

He will never give up on what he wants, and he will make a lasting and powerful effort!

As Guchos continued, his sentence had a firm and composed force, and he said, "That's right. The reality is unfair to me, but it's not just for me. The reality is indeed cruel and hard, but it is not any excuse for us to avoid and not live seriously. ”

"I knew I had worked on it before, but those efforts weren't enough. How do I work hard? Every night, he said that he was training for three hours, but he was too lazy to die, and before he sat in the driver's cab for half an hour, he said that he had to arrange a rest for back pain and fatigue. I would always make up excuses for myself, saying that I was no longer a student, that I had to go to work during the day, and that if I could keep practicing for a while at night, I would already work very hard, and I would lie to myself that this was all I could work on. ”

"That's right," Guchos' tone grew more agitated. said: "I just care that I have worked hard and persevered." I just want to get the results I want. However, I never thought that in fact, others are also working hard, and even the efforts of others are more, denser, and more complex. Others are more than hard work, but also obey the unspoken rules of society, and are willing to build a good relationship with the right people step by step. Keep yourself moving up. And what did I do? Except for this little bit of effort, like a stubborn stinky old man, he only thinks about everything and does things, and he doesn't know how to be flexible at all. ”

In this long list of words, Shangguan broke up a lot of wild wolves. But the wolves show no signs of abating, but are becoming more and more suspicious. In order to better defend, Shangguan opened the defensive shield of the Golden Steel Wolf twice at the right time, and pushed the most critical moment over.

However, such a defense ...... Still not enough.

If they continue to fight like this, according to Shangguan's own prediction, they will still lose.

But even in such an unfavorable situation, what Shangguan was concerned about now was not the battle situation in front of him, and he even asked distractedly: "What happened later, what happened later?" ”

He wanted to know the end of Guchos's story, because now he also found that he also had a strong sense of substitution with the story. He wanted to know what Gujos had done and what would happen then. In this way, he wanted to see that it was possible to live his own life.

Guchos nodded slightly in the driver's cab, and replied with a calm face: "Later, I analyzed my own personality and thoughts, and I felt that if I were asked to do those things to please others, I would not be able to do it." I'm not a person with strong relationships, and I feel that my life is limited, and I don't want to spend too much time with people. Of course, you still need to have good friends, you have to have good colleagues, and you can have a few good partners, but what about ...... If you want to make yourself like the renminbi and make everyone like you, I don't think it's necessary. ”

That's right, if everyone likes you, it only means that you are just a person who has no personality of his own and relies on other people's ideas to do things.

Such people will not be happy. How can a person be happy if his own needs are not met?

"I know that my strength is to work silently. There is only one way to go, "let yourself have transcendent strength" in front of me. So, from that day on, I changed my plan, and instead of practicing for three hours a day, I practiced for six hours! That's right, it's a full six hours, solid, and I don't stop except for a ten-minute break to drink water in the middle of every three hours. I know that in addition to myself, there are many, many young people in this world who are working hard, and if I don't work harder than them, if I don't work harder than them, then I will definitely not have a bright future. ”

"On the other hand, my master, Dean Lin, who later became bad, taught me that if you want to become an outstanding person and accomplish some outstanding things, in addition to working very hard, there is another very important point, which is to persevere." When he said this, Guchos, who had always spoken in a very fast tone, suddenly stopped. He seemed to want to give Shangguan some space to think, so that the young man could reminisce about his words.

Then, he continued: "That's right, the more beautiful the flower, the more thorns and obstacles it often has, if you only work hard and then it's over, then it is impossible to see the beauty of your dreams, and it is impossible for you to do anything that you can't normally do." ”

At this point, the truth that Gujos was trying to explain has been explained very thoroughly.

If you give up now, you won't be able to accomplish such a difficult thing as "defeating this great magician".

"But...... He looks strong too. Although Shangguan had already wavered a little in his heart, he still said discouraging words on his lips.

"Hmph," said Gujos in a very unhappy tone, "if you don't think it's possible and give up, then die quickly." ”

Although this sentence seems like an angry word, it makes people feel inexplicably moved. (To be continued......)
