"You're here to save Div, aren't you?"

The middle-aged man asked, he didn't add His Majesty the Emperor when he talked about Diff, which was not very respectful.

"Of course."

"That's a coincidence, I'm the one who protects Div."

"Oh, count me out of luck, mission failure." Chu Ming calmly accepted this result, strength determines everything.

"Not necessarily, I'm just in charge of protecting Diff, and it doesn't matter to me which side he falls towards." The middle-aged man said meaningfully

"Oh! In this case, you are only protecting His Majesty the Emperor Div. It looks like we can really talk. Chu Ming felt that the willows were bright. Many royal families have their own family powers, and the purpose of these forces is to protect the safety of important family members, and do not care about other things, so as to avoid the sidelines of family power.

"It's not much what you guessed, and I don't want to explain too much. It's just a favor from one person to another. The middle-aged man walked around the room with ease, looking at some traces of battle on the ground with relish.

"Shall I talk to you, or should I talk to His Majesty Div?"

"Of course you should talk to Div, but you can't beat me, and you have to pass me, so you have to talk to me too." The middle-aged man's answer was strange, a little overbearing and a little funny

"You're really that boring." Chu Ming said with a wry smile

"You can think whatever you want, I'm better than you anyway, you should listen to me." The middle-aged man picked up a piece of debris on the ground and asked, "How did you determine the time of the explosion of this reactor?" ”

"I've seen this stuff a lot." Chu Ming replied, indeed, he had seen hundreds of them on the Great Luwen Star, and they had been completely dismantled.

"Is that so? Just this refractory alloy? ”

"Of course it's a guess, after all, no one wants to die, so even if you blow yourself up, it's best to leave yourself a glimmer of life, if it's a directional explosion and there is a delay, this can indeed kill me without injury." Chu Ming glanced at the substitute cultivator who had melted away, and felt sorry for this smart man.

"Oh! Combat is real-time. Not bad, as I thought. There's no way to attack, no control of the fight, young man, you're doing pretty well, somehow better than me. ”

"You? If it were you, what would you do. Chu Ming asked curiously

"Me?" The middle-aged man thought for a while, "It's hard to say, it's not exciting to solve it in one or two moves." ”

"You! You're so devastating. Chu Ming said in frustration, what others value is wonderful, just like watching a play, this is the same as the mentality of people who play with grasshoppers.

"Oh, young man, don't be discouraged, strength is not the most important thing." The middle-aged man comforted him, for him, potential is what matters. Strength will be achieved over time, provided you have this potential.

"You can say whatever you want, I can't beat you anyway. It seems to me that there is nothing to say about this battle, after all, your Majesty Div still doesn't know what Lu Dao thinks? ”

"Then I can't help you, of course force can't be solved, if you want to use the means of politicians, I don't have any opinion, I hope it's just as exciting." The middle-aged man threw away the fragments in his hand and walked out, Chu Ming hesitated for a moment and followed him.

Passing through the garden, there is a small two-story building with a delicate and clear second-floor building behind it, and it seems that this Diff is a very good guy.

Walking into the building, the sudden arrival of the two made Div, who was lying on the Pompeii sand on his side, startled, and quickly stood up, nodded politely to the middle-aged man, and said

"Uncle Essien, why are you here? Who is this? ”

"Don't worry, what you do has nothing to do with me. This-" The middle-aged man glanced back at Chu Ming, and said half-jokingly, "I also just met this person, as for whether he came to save you or kidnap you, I don't know very well." ”

"Hijacking! Uncle Essien, you're kidding. Diff said nervously

"Ahem." Chu Ming hurriedly coughed twice to avoid establishing hostility early, "Your Majesty Dif, it's not like this, I'm just here to give you a suggestion, as for the hijacking, it's not at all, if you talk about hijacking, Your Majesty's current situation is like being hijacked." ”

"Who are you?" Diff asked warily

"Introduce yourself, Fast Imperial Mercenary Union, Chu Ming."

"Fast people!" Dev said angrily, "That's you! Treacherous fellows, you swear that you will be my most reliable friend, but now, now! Let my country be ravaged by war, and I have lost my freedom. What do you want to do? To you, I am an insignificant pawn. , Fast. Get out of here! I don't want to see you. ”

Chu Ming sighed, the persuasion work was more difficult than expected, this young emperor was really not suitable to be an emperor, first of all, this paranoid character was a fatal bruise. Perhaps the Fast Empire and other empires wanted it to be so, a qualified emperor for independence, for ambition, for poor control.

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say if you say that, but I took the risk of coming here just to give you a choice, don't you think we have also shown the least sincerity? We respect your opinion and don't lock you up here like a frog at the bottom of a well. ”

"No, never, I will not compromise, neither you nor anyone else." Diff nervously waved his arm

This is the middle-aged man next to him, that is, Uncle Essien in Div's mouth, suddenly asked

"Frog at the bottom of the well, what does that mean?"

"Oh, that's a small local proverb, and it probably doesn't quite fit. The general story is that an animal called a frog lives in a well......"

Chu Ming picked the right words to explain the idiom story. Chu Ming didn't expect an idiom story to be so complicated to explain in a completely different cultural context. After finishing the lecture, I felt confused, and I didn't know how much the audience could understand.

"Interesting, a simple metaphor, but very philosophical. This crater is like a well, but the whole of Rexon is not a bigger well. We are all frogs in the well, sitting in the well and watching the sky - this is true. Essien listened attentively and understood the meaning of the idiom

"Yes, of course it's just a metaphor, and it's certainly a good thing to be a little more open-minded." Chu Ming was very patient

"Yes. That's right. Essien seemed to have made up his mind, and he turned to face the Emperor Div, and said solemnly, "I am going to go out for a walk, this time it may be farther." ”

"Uncle Essin! What should I do if you're gone? When he heard that Esin was leaving, Emperor Div was immediately in a state of confusion

"I decided, as for you—first, I'm not your babysitter; Second, do you think you will be able to live your life in peace under such circumstances? Third, is peace the purpose of your life? You are wrong, your father is wrong, and no amount of hard shell can protect a weak heart. ”

"Uncle!" Def seemed to be on the verge of crying

"Don't say it, I've already decided." Essien said categorically

"Uncle! You really don't care about me anymore? Diff tugged at Essien's sleeve pitifully, and tears really flowed. Let Chu Ming next to him feel a burst of pity in his heart, this young emperor is really a child, especially in his heart, he doesn't look like a mature monarch at all.

Essien was also slightly moved, after all, this man was raised by him, and he was by his side like a father for so many years: "Diff, you should grow up." You've been running away, and at your age you should have become a self-reliant man a long time ago, and the men of the empire are either working or fighting at your age. Don't you understand that evasion does not reduce the responsibility on your shoulders, you are the emperor and you have no choice, even if this profession is not suitable for you. From now on, you have to try to become an emperor, I will give you ten years, if you are not dead by then, or if you are still not up to the task, I will take you away, this is a test, but also an opportunity. Go ahead, try to be a good monarch, try to live on your own. "You can grow beautiful flowers in a greenhouse, but you can't grow a towering tree that can withstand the wind and rain.
