Chapter 11: Augustine (3)
"In Hebrew, 'Adam' originally meant red clay, and God made him out of clay for his name." Looking at Guo Jie, who was about the same time, he returned the same way with Yichen.
"I'll just say that Adam guy is dirty." Yichen nodded and said, his eyes were looking around after basically walking around the Thor, making people suspect that he was robbing the spaceship.
Guo Jie smiled: "Although there is no malice, this tone is very consistent with those unscrupulous people." ”
"Wrongdoers?" Yichen raised his eyebrows and returned his gaze to him, "Who else dares to fight the idea of the Augustine family?" ”
"Although the Augustinian family has a history of more than 100 years, it is not a family with a long history. Many families have a history of hundreds of years, especially European nobles, many of whom have a history of more than 500 years. These families, which have been inherited for more than 500 years, claim to be true aristocrats, and have always looked down, prejudiced and contemptuous of the aristocratic families with a short history. Guo Jie carried his black-gloved hands on his back, as if he didn't care about these words.
"Are these families strong?" Yichen felt as if a new door was opening in front of him.
"If it can be inherited for five hundred years, it will naturally not be weak."
"How does it compare to the Augustinians?"
Guo Jie shook his head amusedly: "They are far behind, except for the uncompetitive thing of 'history', there is nothing to compare." Perhaps for this reason, the Augustinians were once defined as nouveau riche, and even now, there are still many people who have the jealousy to see the decline of the Augustinian family in their lifetimes. It is also understandable that being surpassed by the upstarts who are rising like a bamboo, and the sense of superiority does not allow those who have long been accustomed to being superior to others to be psychologically balanced. ”
As he spoke, his hands brushed from his forehead to the sides, and his eyes flashed with contempt as if he saw the decay and stubbornness of those who were about to die: "But they are wrong, the Augustinians are nobles, and they are nobles among nobles!" ”
Yichen lowered his head slightly and smacked his lips silently, unexpectedly that this Augustinian family, which was second to none, had also experienced ridicule and contempt.
Sure enough, among strangers, few people think about the good of others, this is the case for small families, and the same is true for nobles.
"There is no shortage of people with bad intentions in the world, and with the status of the Augustinian family, those people only dare to say it in their hearts, and they don't have the courage to express it." Yichen said the reality that was not comforting.
"Of course they don't dare to express it, otherwise when Shen Shi comes again, they won't want to have another complete door for the family." Guo Jie chuckled.
There is no complete door, is this what it means to overturn the other family? Naked threat, the corner of Yichen's mouth twitched.
Shen Shi Augustine, he knows, the hand of electric silver, the first level of electric silver silver flash, is the existence of the hand of electric silver that is most inclined to solve problems violently, and the famous militant of the family.
Gojie continued: "Unlike the traditional aristocracy, which valued quality of life and cultural etiquette over education, the Augustinians were more educational, which sounds a bit boastful, but it is. Superiority is innate, nobility is innate, this is almost the inherent thinking of the traditional family, words and deeds are elegant, manners are moderate, and it is more not the attitude of the real attitude to treat people, but the polite and sympathetic attitude, showing the unusual class. ”
"It's a bit esoteric, maybe I haven't reached that level yet." Yichen looked at the familiar route, which was the direction of Wen Tiantai.
"Noble, elegant, extraordinary...... Nothing is innate, the so-called aristocracy is not superior, but the improvement of compliance freedom, financial freedom, emotional freedom, ordinary freedom, and so on. Guo Jie thought for a while and said, "Take the family's education as an example, before the age of ten, the so-called aristocratic etiquette will not be forcibly grasped by the child, it is about six sweets, three bitters and one rebelliousness." Life before the age of six, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the best, as long as you are happy, toys are piled up; From the age of six to nine, he was free-range in society, without any family support, and lived the life of ordinary people and even the poor; Between the ages of nine and ten, what can be solved with money and force is never allowed to be considered any other way. After the age of ten, with certain adult attributes, you will begin to learn orthodox education and learning such as etiquette, life, and knowledge. ”
"The way your family raises its offspring...... It's really Chitha. "Yichen sincerely considers himself lucky.
"Maybe it's part of the Thunder Liquid Enhancer, the stimulation and excitement that make the adults in the family not treat us as children when we were kids." Guo Jie shrugged, "We can't help it. ”
Yichen quickly followed the pace and returned to normal Guo Jie, and said for no reason: "By the way, what is the Reverse Doom Holy Ball?" I heard Nemoh say that that thing can actually save the sword breath of the Lord of Thunder and Lightning. ”
Hearing the "Reverse Doom Holy Ball", a cold light flashed from under Guo Jie's eyes, and he pretended not to be interested and said: "A crystal ball, which the ancestors found from the Thunder Pool, is nothing special except for the sword breath that can save the Lord of Thunder and Lightning. ”
He wouldn't say that in order to compete for the identity of the Reverse Evil Ball and the Snow Shame Man, the young generation who were still minors almost turned against each other, after all, he was among them.
The qualification battle for the Lord of Thunder and Lightning is something that every generation of the Augustine family must participate in before they reach adulthood, and the hot-blooded younger generation competes for the Reverse Orb without endangering their lives, some for the qualification of the next Lord of Thunder, and some for the identity of the family heir.
The qualification battle of Adam's generation was the most competitive in the history of the Augustinian family, and in addition to Adam, Aounbab, Soboyo, Shen Shi, and Guojie...... are all strong contenders for the Snow Shame Man.
In the qualification battle, Jades said two words that impressed many clansmen, one was "These boys are fierce enough, one is more ruthless than the other, and those who don't know think they are robbing their daughter-in-law", and the other is at the end of the qualification battle, "Fortunately, my son is angry, and it is not easy to use the title of 'young patriarch'."
Indeed, if the heir of the family is not the child of the current patriarch, the title of "young patriarch" needs to be changed.
After the qualification battle, Jedus's brothers and brothers invited him to his house as a guest, if it wasn't for his good skills, he couldn't just need the big housekeeper to help him come out.
But Jades was right, his son did win glory.
In the qualifying battle, Adam single-handedly defeated the triangular alliance of Aounbab, Sobuyo and Shin Shi, and this alliance was for nothing other than to kick Adam, the strongest and most powerful contender, out. At that time, Guo Jie, who also liked to act alone with Adam, found that the Triangle Alliance was invincible and also intervened.
The qualification battle is a very comprehensive test, and the best thing to say is a comprehensive contest that combines actual combat ability, personality charm, wisdom and strategy, and so on.
With the addition of Guo Jie, the triangular alliance became a square alliance, and the four of them worked together to finally suppress Adam, but just when Adam was about to lose, Qiu Heyu arrived and helped Adam stop Song Buyu and Shen Shi.
Like Shen Shi, Guo Jie and the electric lightning playing Buyun, Qiu Hexuan is also a first-class electric flash, known as "magnetic flash" and "inducing light". Of course, that's all for later.
From four to two, Adam's pressure was greatly reduced, and he instantly launched a powerful counterattack, suppressing Aounbab and Guojie, and pressing Guojie, who had a sneak attack, to the ground and rubbing it fiercely.
After the qualification battle, the square alliance was unwilling, not because of Qiu Hexuan's intervention, they could form an alliance, and Adam would naturally be able to win over others, but it was a pity that he was only able to kick Adam out.
If it weren't for mutual vigilance, fearing that Adam would be attacked by his allies immediately after he was out, the four of them all reined in their strength, and they were confident that they would defeat Adam before Qiu and Feng arrived.
This unwillingness completely dissipated after lasting for half a month, because they learned that Adam was already the captain of the Celestial Radiant Team before the qualification battle.
And the reason why this news only reached the ears of Aounbab and others after the qualification war was because Adam found Andre in advance and asked him to help him hide it.
The squad leader of the Shining Sun Action Team, who became the head of the three reserve teams at a young age, even the always unruly Shen Shi admired his cousin from the bottom of his heart.
Before he was a minor, he participated in dozens of dangerous operations of various sizes in the Command Department, and Adam broke a series of records in the Order Department, which has not been surpassed so far.
However, only a few people such as Michael and Andre know that this is because of the stability of the two women, one did not join the order department, and the other joined but was ordered to hibernate.
It is indeed Wentiantai, not as few as when it was first opened, there are already thirty or forty people on Wentiantai at this time, all experiencing the wonderful feeling of being in the sky.
According to Guo Jie, the first trip is to take his cousin back, and the wedding is absolutely impossible without the groom, and the second is to pick up the VIPs invited to the wedding in Western Europe and Northern Europe.
In other regions, the Augustinian family also sent luxury planes. No matter how far away, the Thor is not a problem, but in many countries, the Thor does not have flight permissions.
Moreover, with the Thor being picked up around the world one by one, the wedding is estimated to be three months away.
The sturdy Ban Shizai, he changed into a brand new black suit, dark blue tie, very formal, if he hadn't seen the suit shop when he visited just now, Yichen would probably think that this big brother had robbed a certain VIP.
Of course, the suit is free, everything offered on the Thor is free, and who can be invited on the Thor will be short of money? The Augustinians will not be short of money.
When the social circle reaches a certain height, talking about money lowers the level of attendees.
Although it is not custom-made, Ban Shi is very satisfied with his expensive suit, he is half a rough man, only proficient in combat, and only wants to fit the things of such rich and noble people, and does not need to be perfectly matched.
It's not that he can't customize it on the Thor, it's too late, he just wants to change into formal clothes, after all, it's a wedding, and it's the wedding of the original Captain Dawn.
But even so, the clerk measured him warmly and thoughtfully, and the level of measurement and fineness was only higher than that of Savile Row, which has a history of more than 100 years.
And the clerk told him that before he landed on Thor Island, the handmade custom suit would be delivered to the room that had been arranged for him.
Although he had had the privilege of visiting Thor Island a few times before, Banshi was impressed by the Augustinian family's service.
Yichen didn't see the figure of Lord Li Xuan, and listened to Ban Shi say that before changing out of his combat uniform, Lord Li Xuan did not plan to attend any occasion, and he didn't even look at the more than ten European-style aristocratic dresses sent by Adam, not because he looked down on him, but because he was worried about Adam's previous attitude.
It sounds a bit cautious, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is Lord Li Xuan expressing his dissatisfaction to the Augustine family or the Augustine Xuan Lord.
Adam said that his previous actions were completely on behalf of the Augustine family, and it was impossible for this to be without Abraham's instructions, and Michael and others could only be handled by Abraham, and the current patriarch of Jades was a little bit behind.
What happened before was not a trivial matter, if it weren't for the situation being too unfavorable for the Shan family, if there was no strong intervention from the rookie and Mingxuan, it would probably not be a spark between the Shan family and the Augustine family.
However, at a certain height, no matter how dissatisfied there is, it can only be expressed indirectly, just like what Li is doing now. When she arrives on Thor's Island and sees Abraham, she still smiles and talks amicably.
is like a sentence that Jeders often recited to people after becoming the patriarch: If you carry it too much and for a long time, your character will be pressed into your heart, and once you are pressed in, it will be difficult to come out again.
And Adam, when Fursh attacked Port Poseidon, realized it. It's just that the temporary burden has not changed this young patriarch with a rather selfish personality.
Perhaps, when he becomes the patriarch and becomes the real ruler of the Augustine family, he needs to work hard for the growth and continuation of the family before he can change.
Although, now Augustine has been at the forefront of the family ranks, shaping the myth of "no one before him".
