Chapter 9: Time......
For the Atlantic Federation, it is a pig-like opponent, and for old foxes like Liu Lao and Zhou Lao, it is also a pig-like opponent, if it weren't for the fact that several other families took a little hold of the Liu family and the Zhou family because of Liu Yi's previous behavior as a new star, perhaps, the once brilliant Jiang family and the Li family would be collapsed by the two old men.
Hearing Zhou Lao's words, Liu Lao agreed: "It is indeed a pig-like opponent. ”
If he could, Liu Lao didn't want such a pig-like opponent at all, because, to a certain extent, this pig-like opponent was also a pig-like teammate, just like the current Kaohsiung Spaceport incident, if there was no such pig teammate, with the national strength of the Republic of East Asia, Liu Yi could take the initiative to attack the invading Zaft like a dead dog. To talk a little more, with the support of the Zhou family and the Liu family, Liu Yi will not be afraid of Zaft's attack.
Instead of going to find the Moruda of the Blue Universe like this? Azra Airu seconded things, not to mention defending the Kaohsiung Cosmoport so carefully.
Sometimes pig teammates are more terrible than god opponents, especially when you have pig teammates on your side and the opposite side is a god opponent, it's the worst.
When Liu Lao sighed, Zhou Lao pushed the car to the bottom line and said with a smile: "General! ”
"Hah!" Liu Lao was a little dumbfounded, it was only a few minutes, and he was done, isn't that how he plays.
Looking at this checkmate chess game, Liu Lao said quibly: "Hey, Lao Zhou, did you steal the chess just now, I didn't see your rook in this position before." ”
Zhou Lao stretched out his hand and clicked on the chess game, looked at Liu Lao with disdain and said, "The level is poor, the level is poor." Don't quibble, for a second-class guy like you, a guy who is not even as good as a beginner, am I going to be a good guy. ”
The implication is that Old Zhou has had a lot of old men with other old men, all of whom are cunning old men.
looked at the chess game carefully again, and found that there was really no handle that could be grasped, so Liu Lao had no choice but to admit it. said indignantly: "Cut, what's the spirit." It's just a game of chess. And Go, you've never won against me, now let you be arrogant, and I'll definitely kill you next time. ”
Zhou Lao smiled even more like an old fox who stole a chicken. Said happily: "Next time." Next time. According to our rules, the division flag of the 1st Guards Division of Japan at your house is mine. Wait a minute, my Jane girl will go and get it, don't play tricks. ”
Zhou Lao has been greedy for those Japanese collectibles of Liu's hometown for a long time, why is it not the Zhou family when he fights Japan, Zhou Lao regrets this matter.
Looking at Zhou Lao with disdain, Liu Lao said proudly: "Who are you and me, just a flag, I have a lot of things in my collection I don't know myself, and the Emperor's Palace in Japan has been emptied by me." A mere flag, do you put it in my eyes? ”
Seeing Liu Lao like this, Zhou Lao gritted his teeth and said: "Cut, if I didn't have to deal with the Russian troops at the beginning, how could I let your Liu family log in to Japan first." How could the items of the Japanese Emperor's Palace become the collection of the Liu family, rest assured. Lao Liu, I will definitely win it all little by little. ”
Hearing Zhou Lao's words, Liu Lao said with some emotion: "Do we have this time?" ”
The years are not forgiving, and the two generals who were once high-spirited, pointed out the country, and scolded Fang Qiu, one fought Russia and did not dare to cross the border, and the other annexed Korea and destroyed Japan. Now they're just two bad old men waiting to die.
Hearing Liu Lao's words, Zhou Lao was also a little distracted.
yes, how much time do you have?
Liu Lao, who came back to his senses from emotion, looked at Zhou Lao, who was distracted, coughed a few times, and said as if persuading: "Ahem, don't think about this, it's not our era now, it's the age of young people." I don't know, what surprise Xiao Yi can give us in Kaohsiung Spaceport this time. Although the Kaohsiung Cosmoport has no effect and will attract Zaft's attention, after all, it is the brainchild of our East Asian Republic. If you can save it, let's keep it. ”
Hearing Liu Lao's words, Zhou Lao frowned, thought for a while, and said seriously: "It's a little hanging, with those troops in Xiao Yi's hands, it's really hanging to hold the Kaohsiung Space Port, and being able to stop part of the Zaft army is already a victory, Lao Liu, you'd better arrange something in Kaohsiung, with the things in Xiao Yi's hands, you can't stop Zaft." ”
Liu Lao looked at the sky and said with a smile: "Before the results come out, who knows, Xiao Yi is a child who can create miracles, when the new star is attacking and defending, no one is optimistic about him, but Xiao Yi relied on those miscellaneous army troops with complex composition to wipe out all the 6,000 people invaded by Zaft." Although half of Zaft's 6,000 troops were recruits, being able to do such an incredible thing, Xiao Yi could be regarded as slapping the faces of those military experts who had never even been on the battlefield once. It was a snapping sound. Without investigation, there is no right to speak, what is the battle of the new stars, the Republic of East Asia will definitely be defeated or something, and before the war, it is not famous at all to dare to say such a demoralizing thing. As a result, Zaft's 6,000 troops were all wiped out, and the guy who jumped very hard before couldn't say a word now. It is also not known where the title of their so-called military expert came from. ”
"Also, I have prepared a big gift for Zaft's guests in Kaohsiung, I hope they will like it. The Republic of East Asia doesn't come just as you want to, and the Liu family is not something that anyone can bully, since they come, they don't have to leave. ”
Looking at Liu Lao, Zhou Lao asked tentatively: "Lao Liu, after this Kaohsiung Space Port offensive and defensive battle, is it time to mention Xiao Yi's position, the previous Nova offensive and defensive battle, coupled with this battle, no one can say anything if Xiao Yi is promoted to a major general." ”
Zhou Lao is tempting, if Liu Lao really wants to cultivate Liu Yi as an heir, then Liu Yi's position will not move for two years. The major general, who is less than twenty years old, is really too dazzling and attracts hatred.
Liu Lao shook his head and said, "No, even if Xiao Yi completely destroys Zaft in Kaohsiung Spaceport, I will not promote his position." At least in the next two years, I won't, a nineteen-year-old major general, it's too easy to attract criticism, even if he has real combat exploits, it's too much. After two years, when Xiao Yi is twenty-one, although it is also very eye-catching, it will not have an impact on Xiao Yi's future growth. ”
"Tao'er can't do it, and neither can Yu'er, but. Tao'er has a good son. Xiao Yi is very good, and the future of the Liu family depends on Xiao Yi. According to the predictions of those special care, if there are no accidents, as long as they are well maintained. I'm an old man with fifteen years to live. At that time, Xiao Yi was already thirty-four years old. I can also take over the Liu family, and I can also close my eyes with confidence. It's only fifteen years. Hehe, the years are not forgiving! ”
looked at Liu Lao. Zhou Lao said with a little envy: "Lao Liu, you are fine, there is a Xiao Yi who can take over your stick, and my Zhou family, the descendants, the side lines, the grandsons, and the grandsons have no talents, and the Zhen girl who can barely handle it is a girl." There are still eight years, I am leaving, I don't know if after I leave, the Zhou family will not be like the Li family and the Jiang family, if this is really the case, I will not be safe to go. ”
Zhou Lao is very envious of Liu Lao, not only because Liu Yi can take over Liu Lao's stick and let Liu Lao go with peace of mind. is even more because Liu Lao can live for fifteen years, while Zhou Lao himself only has eight years to live.
But does Zhou Lao know how many things Liu Lao has sacrificed for the past fifteen years, Zhou Lao still has two cigarettes a day, and Liu Lao only has one cigarette a day, and most of the time, Liu Lao doesn't even smoke a cigarette a day. This is really an incredible thing for Liu Lao, who used to have five packs of cigarettes a day.
Elder Zhou now knows very well why the emperors of the past dynasties pursued the elixir of immortality, because this feeling of imminent death, because this feeling that the body is not as good as day by day, it is really uncomfortable. Death is terrifying. It is something that all life fears. The feeling of waiting for death to come can really drive people's hearts crazy.
Looking at the lost look of Zhou Lao in front of him, and the empathetic Liu Lao, he comforted with a wry smile: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and the night when they should go will inevitably go, don't think so much, as soon as you close your eyes, you won't know anything." ”
Liu Lao is also afraid of death. Who would want to die if they could.
Zhou Lao, who was comforted by Liu Lao, stretched his brows and said with a smile: "Indeed, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and it is useless for us to think more." Lao Liu, it seems that your Xiaoyi is not engaged yet, look at my granddaughter......"
Hearing that Zhou Lao seemed to be a matchmaker, and the object was still the granddaughter of the adjuster, Liu Lao hurriedly interrupted Zhou Lao's words and said, "Stop, your Zhou family's demon king, my Liu family doesn't dare to accept it." With the friendship between the two of us, if it is a Zhen girl, I will settle it without saying a word. As for your life-threatening adjuster's granddaughter, forget it, I don't want Xiao Yi to be left behind. If it's just a matter of character, my family's Xiao Yi forbearance will be over, but the adjuster's difficulty in giving birth is famous. I don't want Xiao Yi to curse me for the rest of my life. cut off children and grandchildren, but faced the affairs of the ancestors and ancestors without words. Lao Zhou, don't hurt me. ”
Zhou Lao said tangledly: "Isn't there no way for me, although Hui Yatou is not a tool, although she is an adjuster, even if she is not, she is also my granddaughter, and I always have to help her." ”
The moderators were also discriminated against in the Republic of East Asia, not in the blatant persecution of the Atlantic Federation, but in marriage.
In the East Asian Republic, where marriage is free, it is very difficult for the adjuster to find a marriage partner, and the man does not dare to marry, and the woman does not dare to marry, as long as the other party knows that the other party is the adjuster, it will basically fail. Few members of the East Asian republics have been able to ignore the danger of having their children cut off, to break through the obstacles of the family, and to unite with the adjusters.
There is no way to inherit the bloodline adjuster, no matter how beautiful it is, no matter how high the achievement, but it is really troublesome, there is no problem in becoming a lover, becoming a lover will be hindered by the other party's family, and becoming a family member will be cursed by the other party's family.
In such a situation, most of the adjusters can only marry the adjusters, but how many adjusters are there in the more than one billion people in the East Asian Republic. In other words, in the vast sea of people, you can recognize the adjuster.
In the Republic of East Asia, the adjuster is an outlier, just like a carrier of the hepatitis B virus, although he knows that he will not be infected, but he is a little uncomfortable knowing the identity of the other party.
Hiding his identity, hiding what he is doing as an adjuster. In the East Asian Republics, the adjusters are very tired. There is no danger to life, but the oppression of the soul has always hidden the secret anxiety, which makes many adjusters unbearable.
The reason why the Hui girl in Zhou's hometown, Zhou Chunhui, yearns for PLANT so much, and the reason why she has been homeless more than ten times, is inseparable from this reason.
Parents originally held the beautiful hope that their children could have a better future and a higher starting point, and spent huge sums of money, and some even sold houses, shops, and blood to raise all their net worth to carry out adjuster experiments for their children. But. This wonderful hope. This heavy expectation did not allow the child to enjoy happiness. Or rather, the beginning of the child's misfortune.
"Cut off children and grandchildren." "Absolutely not." "If you marry her, don't come back." "Do evil, you are trying to make the Zhao family the last..............."
Happiness never came. Even if there is no danger to life. Even if you don't suffer the curse of the people around you. But......
"That's as it should be. Because it's an adjuster! "That's amazing. However, it's normal, Wang Xin is an adjuster. ”
All efforts were ignored. Because it is a tuner, therefore, genius is as it should be.
Most of the greatest happiness in marriage has been taken away, because it is an adjuster, because it is difficult to give birth to children, so no matter how beautiful and capable it is, it is not allowed to marry him or her. The marriage partner of the adjuster should be the adjuster. We are natural people, and they are not the same as us.
Even the highest nine are the same. The adjuster is an existence that cannot be accepted.
Looking at Zhou Lao seriously, Liu Lao said solemnly: "Zhou Lao, I know your thoughts, and I know your embarrassment, but I can't let my family's Xiao Yi curse me for the rest of my life." No, it should be said that I can't be sorry for the ancestors of the Liu family. Xiao Yi's marriage, I can indeed decide, but the object must be a girl who can match Xiao Yi, with our relationship, even if it is not worthy of Xiao Yi, it doesn't matter, but, one thing is necessary, Xiao Yi's she must be a natural person, this is a political issue, the adjuster can never become one of the top nine in the East Asian Republic, nor can he become one of the wives of one of the top nine. This is the bottom line that cannot be touched. It is the default law of our nine families. Once Xiao Yi marries Hui Yatou, then Xiao Yi will never be able to take over my position again. If, if, the Liu family has two children as good as Xiao Yi, with our previous friendship, I can sacrifice Xiao Yi's future. However, the Liu family is a little Yi, and there is no second one who can take over my stick and bring the Liu family to the glorious elite. Sacrifice the future of the Liu family to fulfill our friendship. I can't do this, Lao Zhou, I hope you understand. ”
"Your Zhen girl, although it is good, but the gap between her and Xiao Yi, I think you also know. But if it's a Zhen girl, there is absolutely no problem, or if there are other girls in the Zhou family, as long as they are natural people, as long as there is not much difference between age and Xiaoyi, I can make the decision to set this family business. However, only Hui Yatou, the adjuster, can't. ”
Looking at the serious Liu Lao, thinking of the relationship between the two for decades, Zhou Lao knew that such a thing was indeed too embarrassing Liu Lao, Zhou Lao said a little weakly: "Forget the words of Zhen Yatou, if the other children really don't succeed, I am ready to train Zhen Yatou to become the ruler of the Zhou family." After all, the Zhou family doesn't have such an outstanding child as Xiao Yi. If I can also last for fifteen years, I may be able to cultivate an excellent successor for the Zhou family, but it's a pity, Lao Liu, I really envy you, there are still fifteen years to go. ”
Looking at Zhou Lao's envious expression, Liu Lao said softly: "Do you envy me for fifteen years, but I am also envious, envy Xiao Yi has an infinite future, we old men, there is no future." Time, it's really scary. ”
Time is to kill the pig knife, cut down Lori, push the girl, kick the young woman, and leave only the old figure.
After all, there are really not many existences that can actually resist the erosion of time.
The gods are known as immortals, but when the time comes, the gods will also be heavenly and human, and the immortals are known to jump out of the Three Realms, but when the time comes, they will also be added to the heavenly calamity. Even if it is a true god, it will flow into the original land because of time, and endure the test of the river of illusions, and live, but fall, and then with the passage of time, he will face many disasters again.
Liu Lao, who came back from the fear of time and the fear of death, gently tasted a sip of the big red robe, refreshed himself, and said seriously: "Lao Zhou, don't think about this, if you think about it again, your life will not lose half of it because of fear, we don't have a few days to live, eat well, dress well, sleep well, and then look at the children and grandchildren who are not in the instrument, and that's it, as a return for these few times, the energy of the Three Gorges, I will average thirty percent to the northwest, and if there are more, the area in my hands will be unstable, I don't know when the Chinese Academy of Sciences will be able to work out a way to use nuclear energy again, hey, the misfortune of the country. I'll go first. ”
After finishing speaking, Liu Lao stood up and slowly left this old Zhou garden.
Silently put away the chess pieces, Zhou Lao sat under the pine tree for a while, and then, swaying and standing up with a crutch, he said softly: "There is Liu Yi who can take over your stick, and there is the Three Gorges that can stabilize the region, there are fifteen years, everything is really occupied by you, the big smoking gun, I really envy you, time......"
Time.........
How many heroes fell under these two words. Time, the time of terror, the time to cleanse everything. No matter what it is, it can't resist the erosion of time.
Ordinary people can't do it, heroes can't do it, gods can't do it, the earth can't do it, the world can't do it, even the true gods can't do it, and even the river of illusions will eventually be destroyed because of the passage of time.
Time......
The bitterness of two old men who have expanded the territory of the East Asian Republic and suppressed the national fortunes of the East Asian Republic for decades.
In the face of time, after all, nothing can be left. God can't do it, and man can't do it.
Perhaps the only thing that can remain in the face of time is time itself.
Space, Earth orbit, Kaohsiung Spaceport.
"Welcome back, Mai Ye Shenli, Silk Flag's favorite, Flanda? Severen, if it were another three hours, you would have missed the attack and defense of the Kaohsiung Cosmoport. ”
Looking at the three girls with different characteristics who walked into his office, Liu Yi stood up and said with a smile. (To be continued......)
