149, Gold Rush
In view of the special circumstances during the epidemic, the award ceremony was simple, and the king of Belle and other members of the royal family did not show up, and only Princess Ktia made the award on behalf of the royal family.
In fact, even if it is a different background, this is very normal, it is a matter of Rochard operating through the relationship of Ktya, as long as there is this name, it doesn't matter whether the ritual is simple or not.
The ceremony was held in the side hall of the palace, where foreign envoys were often received, and all wore masks of the uniform style provided by the royal family. The black veneer design is decorated with a red poppy flower pattern, and the flowers are also outlined with gold to outline the edges, which is very chic.
Etiquette when meeting has also been temporarily modified, with no handshakes or hand-to-hand hand, and no traditional veneer or kiss ceremony. Make a fist with your right hand and touch it with the outside of your forearm, then withdraw your fist and gently touch your heart as a sign of respect.
Princess Ketia has been to Porto Fesos more than once, but it is impossible for her to go to the grocery store to buy things in person, and she has never crossed paths with Hua Zhenxing.
However, Charles had the opportunity to get up close and personal with Ketia, and when he returned, he was confused, declaring that he had fallen madly in love with the princess and became the most loyal warrior under the princess's dress......
It was just over two years ago, when Charles had just turned eighteen, that Princess Ktia had come to Porto Fesot for a holiday.
Before coming, someone specially reminded Hua Zhenxing to understand the aristocratic etiquette here, but he didn't expect to change it on the spot. Hua Zhenxing met Princess Ketia herself for the first time, and felt more intimate than in the photos.
The net height of the princess is about 1.7 meters, and she is wearing a blue sleeveless tunic dress and long skirt, which looks elegant and delicate without losing the femininity of youth and beauty, and also shows a good figure just right.
She did not wear any jewelry other than a pair of white teardrop-shaped earrings, which is also in line with the purpose of the award ceremony to celebrate charity...... Seeing her, Hua Zhenxing inexplicably remembered Charles.
Then the herd will fall into famine or even mass death, and various plagues and diseases may also be epidemic, and finally lead to a sharp decline or even extinction of the population.
The existence of lions can not only control the number of cattle and protect the natural pasture, but also eliminate the old, weak, sick and disabled in the herd, and retain healthier and excellent genes for reproduction.
Interestingly, the size of the herd also controls the number of lions, as they are the food of the lions. If there were no populations such as bison, lions would also become extinct, thus maintaining a delicate dynamic equilibrium, which is the law of the jungle by nature.
Of course, she also had official duties, such as visiting international hospitals, visiting aid doctors, taking photos with poor children, giving charity speeches, etc., during which she also went hunting in the northern wilderness.
Hua Zhenxing has no prejudices about hunting, and before learning to farm and nomadize, humans also lived a hunting life for millions of years. Environmental protection is a dynamic concept, and if a population loses its natural predators, it can even lead to ecological collapse.
For example, there are no fierce beasts represented by lions on the grassland, and the reproduction of bison is not restricted, which will soon eat up the grass in an area, and at the same time suppress the survival of other small grass-eating animals in the area.
If someone insists that the law of the jungle is still followed within human society, this is a change of concept. Humans are the same species, it is impossible to be both a lion and a bison, and it is logically impossible to justify themselves by feeding on themselves.
The laws of nature are simple and simple, for lions, it is the life of the toilers, and for the bison, it is also the lives of the toilers. And that's it, none of them have higher-level needs.
A lion is not nobler than another, nor nobler than a bison, there is no such concept in the laws of nature.
The so-called hunting activities are nothing more than human beings playing the role of lions and driving the natural functions of lions, as long as they do not exceed the limits of natural rules, and of course there is no aristocratic tradition.
As for cultivating courage and character, it may still have some meaning in the era of cold weapons, but now...... It's kind of nonsense.
Of course, the law of the natural jungle does not apply to human civilization, although the two are very similar in many aspects, but these similarities may not be justified and necessary at the same time, and human society has its own civilization ethics.
Some people say that "cultivation" is to go against the sky, but in fact, the evolution of "the world" is also a kind of going against the sky, in this desolate and dead universe......
These are all told to Xiaohua by the three old men at different times and in different ways, and their views or perspectives are different, but the core of their understanding is almost the same.
When Hua Zhenxing saw Princess Ketia, he inexplicably thought of Charles, then thought of hunting, and then thought of how several old men in the family talked about cultivation and the world, this thinking is divergent enough!
Some people also say that the so-called morality and ethics, and the social consciousness it constructs, are just a set of hypocritical clothes, and humans who take off their clothes are still naked apes.
In fact, many people don't understand that it is precisely this layer of clothing that is priceless, with it there is everything that comes after, civilization begins with reflection, and thus there is ideological enlightenment, and the really important question is what kind of clothing we need?
The phenomenon of life and intelligence is a reaction against the principle of increasing entropy in nature. The emergence and development of civilized society is also a reaction against the law of the jungle of nature, otherwise the existence of individuals and the relationship between individuals cannot be talked about.
The spear was also taken away from the camp, and Princess Ktia, accompanied by her attendants, came among them, greeted them cordially, and sat down beside Charles by the campfire, and asked Charles' name.
Charles stammered with nervousness, and the princess smiled at him, "Thank you, my warrior!" Then he handed the charr food, a piece of meat that had just been roasted and cut off by the princess's knife.
Charles was so excited that he almost pumped over, and when he came back, he was a little stunned, and he didn't leave Princess Ketia in three sentences, claiming that the princess had occupied all his heart, and praised the princess as unparalleled in the world.
Princess Kertia went hunting in Porto Feso, not only with her own security team, but also with a group of local guides and bodyguards.
Someone has to be engaged in services such as leading the way, setting up camp, finding and driving prey, and so on. Through the connections of his uncle, Major Konu, Charles also joins the team, and is able to get up close and personal with Princess Ketia.
Local entourage is not allowed to carry guns and mobile phones, let alone take photos on the spot. Charles was at the front of the group with a spear in his hand, dressed in so-called traditional clothing.
Charles's state of bewilderment lasted for more than a month, and he was later cured in the grocery store.
That day, he came to Hua Zhenxing, and without saying a word, he began to talk about the beauty, charm, and kindness of Princess Ketia. At this time, Old Man Yang found a movie for Hua Zhenxing to watch, so Xia Er also watched it.
The movie tells the story of a homeless man who runs to the ice and snow to pan for gold, finds a gold mine and gets rich overnight.
After seeing Ktya in person, Hua Zhenxing believed that some of what Charles said was true. For example, this princess is the most beautiful, charming, elegant, temperamental, cultivated, and charming girl Charles has ever seen.
Although the mask covers the mouth and nose, it adds a more mysterious beauty, revealing that the eyes and eyebrows are bright and moving, the face, the figure, the dress, the breath...... can be called an excellent appearance, and her speech and demeanor show her charm so decently.
In Charles's life, he really has never seen a woman like Ktya, and it is impossible to come into contact with the local indigenous girls he sees in his neighborhood every day, and he basically doesn't know a few words, so it is very good to be able to barely pay attention to personal hygiene.
The superficial structure of the story is extremely simple, but the performance is extremely exciting. After reading it, in front of Charles, Old Man Yang asked Hua Zhenxing: "That hostess, can you take a fancy to the homeless man?" ”
Hua Zhenxing replied honestly: "Of course she can't look at it, the last thing she looks at is a rich man." Before she got on the boat, the homeless man had long been forgotten, but the homeless man had not forgotten her. ”
Yang Tehong asked again: "Why do homeless people like hostesses so much?" ”
At first, the homeless man fell in love with a waitress, and with no food or clothing, he tried his best to prepare a dinner that seemed to him as sumptuous as possible, and asked the hostess to have it with him.
As a result, the waitress completely forgot about the invitation, and forgot about him. The hostess also played a trick on the homeless man with a group of people, and felt that it was funny, and this person was funny, which made the homeless man sad.
When the homeless man became rich and left by boat, he met the hostess who wanted to escape but was bullied, rescued her, and then the two were happily together......
But he didn't know that the waitress didn't take him seriously at all, and when he turned around, he forgot about his invitation, and the world of the homeless was still that icy and snowy place. ”
Speaking of this, Old Man Yang suddenly changed his tone, raised his voice and said, "Charles, don't you feel like that homeless man?" The homeless man who didn't find the gold mine was dizzy all day long!
I look at what happened between you, and she said "thank you" to you, and she said "my warrior", and you really became her warrior?
Xiaohua was still Xiaohua at that time, and he couldn't answer such an esoteric question, so he had to ask: "What do you say?" ”
"A homeless man who doesn't even have a trouser belt or boots, the tavern waitress is the most beautiful fairy in his eyes. You have to note that at the beginning of the movie, the homeless man is beaten up in a tavern, and the waitress supports him and helps him wipe his wounds with a handkerchief.
Although it was a convenient thing, just such a trace of warmth was something he had never felt in the icy and snowy world, and at that moment the hostess became all his beautiful yearning.
Charles was still a little confused at the time, but at least he understood two things, even if he talked about Princess Ketia every day, it was impossible to ask people out, and the "relationship" between him and the princess was not worth showing off, and finally ended the state of staring in confusion.
Hua Zhenxing also made a joke at the time: "There is no king in the country of Jili, it is bigger than the country of Beli, and you will become the president of the country of Jili in the future...... Then make the country of several miles better than the country of Beli, and you can ask her out! ”
It was just a joke at the time, but it amused Charles. Charles probably didn't dare to think of being the president of the country of Jili, and then make the country of Jili better than the country of Beli.
You ran for days on the steppe with a stick to guide her hunting party and drive away her prey, and she gave you a piece of roasted meat, cut it with a knife from the piece of meat you had roasted yourself, and handed it to you.
You can like her, but you don't want to lose yourself. Can you ask her out for a meal? You know the answer, it's definitely not possible, even if you try everything and with all your might.
In that case, go and date the girls you can date, just pay attention to safety, why bother talking here! What is the purpose of the princess you talk about every day, this kind of thing is not worth showing off, have you figured it out? ”
Charles talked about Princess Ketia every day, not only because he was fascinated, but also because he was showing off, he couldn't tell the difference, but Old Man Yang could see through it.
Hua Zhenxing suddenly remembered what Old Man Yang had said to Xia Er at the beginning, even if you did everything you could, could you ask her out for a meal together?
Today's award ceremony will be followed by a dinner. Because the awarder is Her Royal Highness the Princess, the three awardees all brought female companions, Locke brought Lianna, and a female star brought by Rogrid.
But this incident still has an impact on Charles's subconscious, although he didn't dare to think about it when he became president, but perhaps it was from then on that his "ideal" of killing Jin Datou and replacing him became more firm, and he tried to implement it when he had the opportunity.
Looking back now, it is not surprising that Charles felt about Princess Tia at the time.
As a member of the gang who lives in the chaotic and sinful neighborhood of Filso Harbor, Charles has never met or felt the glow of an unattainable world.
Hua Zhenxing's inner activity is so rich. Sir Mace, who was responsible for the introduction and introduction on the side, frowned secretly, what happened to this nouveau riche in the eastern country? Seeing that Her Royal Highness the princess was still distracted, what kind of person is this!
Saluting with Her Royal Highness the Princess, Feng Zibin seems to be observing the princess's eyebrows, and then looking at her face and figure, she is really a legendary playboy! Crazy in front of the charm of Her Royal Highness the Princess?
But his eyes and movements were a little stagnant, and he didn't reveal any other meaning, according to the usual debauchery and absurdity, it is impossible for a person to be rude at such a time.
Hua Zhenxing wanted to bring Man Man here, but Old Man Yang stopped him and said, "Don't let Man Man go to that kind of occasion to learn badly!" And if you take Man Man with you, it is equivalent to publicly revealing your identity, so let Xiao Cui go with you. ”
So Feng Zibin's female companion became Cui Wanhe, the director of the publicity department of Huanxiang Industry.
Hua Zhenxing was thinking at this time, if it was possible, he should really bring Xia Er here, this is not to ask the princess out for a meal, but to be invited to the princess to eat at home, but unfortunately he didn't expect Dr. Luo to arrange this in advance.
He must have been so nervous, so excited, that his mind went blank for a moment, and Sir Mace could understand the feeling.
Hua Zhenxing was the first to come forward to salute the princess, and Locke and Rochard were still waiting behind, and Sir Mace was about to give a reminder, but Princess Ketia spoke first: "My lord, what are you thinking?" ”
She didn't mind Hua Zhen's reaction in front of her at all, and her smile was even more gentle and charming. Hua Zhenxing hurriedly explained: "I once heard a friend often mention you, and when I saw the princess herself today, I couldn't help but think of a lot of things. ”
