Chapter 164: The Dinner Party (3)
Tang Jie stared at Kirk, he didn't know why this guy wanted to find him, but Tang Jie knew that this dinner party must be a good banquet, and he could only come to cover the water!
"After all, this is your territory, isn't it?, Your Highness Kirk?" Tang Jie said like a sleek and spicy diplomat, his posture was neither far nor close, neither humble nor arrogant, which made Kirk frown secretly.
As a superior, the person he is most afraid of encountering is the person who puts himself in an equal position with him, because the vast majority of such people who are neither humble nor arrogant are extremely talented and powerful, and they are extremely difficult to be recruited, but as a superior, what they want to recruit the most is such a person!
Although most of such people are arrogant, once they can surrender, then they will become their most powerful help, after all, thousands of troops are easy to obtain, and one will be hard to find!
After a short contact just now, Prince Kirk suddenly had a desire to solicit, although Tang Jie kept a distance not far away, and there was a vague attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away in his tone, but he still wanted to try hard.
Whoever lets such a talent go will feel a pity!
Kirk secretly said in his heart: If it really doesn't work, it's not too late to destroy him!
His thoughts were spinning in his heart, but he still had a gentle old man's smile on his face, and he led Tang Jie through the banquet hall to a spacious balcony.
This is a two-sided quadrangular balcony, but the middle is a round arch type balcony, the balustrade of the balcony is all white marble without a trace of variegation, carved with exquisite floral patterns, in the middle of the balcony there is a goddess stone statue more than one person high, this goddess stone statue is naked, the chest is full, the body line is soft and abnormal, she holds a water bottle in her hand on her shoulder, the mouth of the water bottle is towards the ground, and the mouth of the bottle flows with a soft red liquid.
The red liquid flowed from top to bottom and landed in a crystal clear goblet filled with liquid, which naturally overflowed and flowed down into the goblets stacked below it, and so on, layer upon layer, these exquisitely stacked goblets resembled a small pyramid, each filled with red liquid.
This is the finest wine, and with the help of a magical mechanism, the statue of the goddess becomes a natural wine platform that anyone who comes to this balcony can enjoy as much as they want.
This alone shows the luxury of the royal family of the Pound Empire!
Kirk took Tang Jie to the balcony that was more than 30 square meters spacious, he took a wine glass with wine very casually, and then turned to Tang Jie and raised it, and said with a faint smile: "This is ten years of red wine paid tribute by Blanc County, this county only produces less than 1,000 catties of wine a year, which is extremely rare, and the selling price of wine of the same area on the black market even exceeds that of gold of the same area, therefore, it is also called red gold, don't you want to taste it?"
Red gold?
Tang Jie had a playful look on his face, he went to a wine glass, took a sip gently, although he felt that the entrance was sweet and smooth, his lips and teeth were fragrant, but he didn't taste too much, he didn't know what this kind of thing was worth?
Kirk saw Tang Jie's appearance, but he didn't know that this kind of superb wine was for Tang Jie to drink, it was purely a cow chewing peonies, and it was wasted for him, he saw Tang Jie's faint smile with an inexplicable mockery, and he thought that this man was not shaken by the red gold in front of him at all.
If you want to change to a knowledgeable person, seeing that all the red gold flowing out of such a beautiful goddess statue is hard to find, your eyes will definitely be shocked, but Tang Jie's calm face makes Kirk sigh secretly in his heart: It seems that this is not a man who will be shaken by wealth.
His move just now was also a temptation, but unfortunately, after a try, Kirk felt that the dark-haired man was one step away from him.
But Kirk was not discouraged, he looked at Tang Jie with blazing eyes, and said with a smile: "I have only seen three people who can drink this wine and keep their complexions unchanged. ”
Red gold is extremely expensive, one bite is equivalent to swallowing thousands of gold coins, a cup down, tens of thousands of gold coins will enter one's stomach, after a while this priceless liquid will become another liquid, excreted by others, become worthless.
Anyone who changes to this extreme luxury pleasure must be shocked by this extreme luxury pleasure, in this case, drinking, even if it is drinking white water without any degree, will be flushed and excited, not to mention that although this wine is sweet, the degree is not small?
"Oh, which three?" Tang Jie didn't know that he had just drunk a battleship, and he smiled faintly.
Kirk said: "The first is my father, His Majesty the Great Kriza XVI, who once told me about the value of this wine, and I was so frightened that I did not dare to raise my glass, when he raised his glass, drank the red gold from the cup, and said to me: Everything in this world is valuable, but people are priceless, and do not let priceless people like you fall into the dilemma of limitation and embarrassment because of valuable things." ”
Although Tang Jie and Kriza XVI were never masked, and he also knew some of the grudges and contradictions between Kirk and Kriza XVI, but when he looked at Kirk now, he saw that this man's eyes showed a look of admiration and admiration, which was a kind of heartfelt admiration and worship of the younger generation to the elders.
Didn't Agatha say that there was a lot of enmity between him and his father?
Tang Jie secretly wondered in his heart, he followed Kirk's words and said, "It's really a wise saying, who is the second one?"
Kirk smiled slightly and said: "The second is the former patriarch of the Kelsman family, this is a man with the greatest wealth in the world and the most beautiful woman in the world, his arrogance and domineering are unimaginable to ordinary people, although the red gold is outrageously expensive, but in his eyes, this liquid is no different from the fresh water we usually drink." So, of course, he won't be moved. ”
Tang Jie also smiled faintly: "With the world's largest wealth and the most beautiful woman, if I change it, no matter what I eat or drink, of course I will not be moved, because this kind of person has experienced all the flashy tests in this world, and naturally I will no longer be surprised and moved by the gentle wind and drizzle." One of the two people you just mentioned is an emperor with a lot of power, and the other is a giant who is rich enough to rival the country, so what about the third?"
Kirk's eyes kept looking at Tang Jie's body, and his sharp gaze seemed to penetrate Tang Jie's soul and see through his whole person.
"The third one is the invincible sword saint Anthony in the world!" Kirk suddenly had an inexplicable brilliance in his eyes when he said the name of this person, as if he was talking about a living god "When the king of sword fighters, Carl Potter, disappeared into the torrent of history a year later, the rise of the sword saint Anthony was like a rising sun, dazzling and unstoppable. I had met him in my father's palace and had his own guidance. ”
Kirk trembled with excitement all over, and the person he was talking about seemed to be his idol: "He stands like a majestic mountain in front of your eyes, and no matter what kind of shocking changes have erupted in this world, he will still look at you with those calm and thorough eyes." In his eyes, there is no difference between a prince like me and a commoner on the street, and in his eyes, there is no difference between red gold and the blue water of the sea!"
When Tang Jie suddenly heard the name of Sword Saint Anthony, his heart tightened unconsciously, and the fingers holding the goblet suddenly became stronger.
It has been a long time since he came to this world, Tang Jie is naturally not completely ignorant of this world like at the beginning, and Tang Jie has naturally heard a lot about the names of the two strongest powerhouses in the world of fighting spirit.
The King of Sword Fighters is a myth of an undefeated king, and Anthony, the Sword Saint, is now an undefeated legend!
It is said that he has been famous since he became famous, and in his life, he has fought thousands of battles, beheaded countless times under the sword, and has never been defeated!
Since Tang Jie came to this world and experienced fighting again and again, he finally understood through and out what a terrible thing the so-called "victory in a hundred battles" was!
Even Tang Jie himself, he has experienced more than a dozen battles, and almost every one of them is at the boundary line of death, relying on his tenacious perseverance and fierce and fearless spirit, he can barely be regarded as undefeated.
But despite this, Tang Jie was still almost killed by Sergei on Moore Avenue in Sisis, which was a complete fiasco.
This name of winning a hundred battles can be regarded as a broken golden body!
So, what is the concept of a person who wins a thousand battles?!
Even if someone deliberately boasted about him, but there was no vanity under the fame, even if the sword saint Anthony hadn't experienced thousands of battles, there would always be a thousand, a hundred, right?
Tang Jie knows very well that for people like them who live on the edge of the sword, fighting is like a common thing, and it may not be very difficult to survive in these battles, but if you want to win all the battles in them, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!
Even Tang Jie, who is growing rapidly, will encounter the sniping of a top powerhouse like Tie Nuo, if he hadn't been lucky enough to shoot him down into the sea, he would have been strangled in the cradle by him.
But the sword saint Anthony was without exception in these battles, all of them defeated the opponent cleanly and won the victory!
His martial arts are respected by the world, and he is recognized as an extraordinary saint among sword fighters, and he is the closest to God, and can be called a sword master!
When a person is strong to the apex, then no matter how big the wind and waves under the sky are just a breeze in their eyes, scratching their faces and drizzling, like Carl, the chauffeur next to Countess Margaret, this realm-level powerhouse can use his domain to forcibly block the wind and rain when facing the storm caused by the terrible magic array!
How could a person with such earth-shattering powers be shocked by such wealth?
Kirk sighed with a sigh: "I was reckless and ignorant, and I saw that the sword saint Anthony was always calm and indifferent, so I wanted to tease him and see how he looked, so I coaxed him to drink a whole bottle of red gold, and then pretended to be panicked and told him what a huge fortune he had just drunk......
Tang Jie watched Kirk talk about what happened back then, and mocked himself that he was young and ignorant, this kind of prince in a high position can be so approachable and self-ridiculous, not to mention anything else, this kind of demeanor and bearing alone is enough to make people admire.
"However, when I finished speaking, the Sword Saint Anthony just smiled slightly, and he lightly tapped the wine glass in front of him with the fingers of his hand, and then, something magical happened!" Kirk's face flushed with excitement, as if many years had passed and he still remembered it vividly, "The empty wine glass in front of me was suddenly filled with red gold again out of thin air!"
"What? How is this possible! Is he a magician?" Tang Jie was shocked, of course he knew that it was not uncommon for such a thing to be done by a magician, but if a sword fighter could "turn a stone into gold" with a little finger, it would be incredible, it showed that he was almost like a god, and he could create things out of thin air!
Kirk looked at Tang Jie with a strange gaze, and said slowly: "In the body of the Sword Saint Anthony, nothing is impossible...... After conjuring a glass of wine out of thin air, he smiled and said to me: Everything you see is an illusion, remember, don't be deceived by your eyes!
Kirk let out a long sigh, "Since then, I have known why so many people respect him and worship him like a god. ”
As he spoke, his eyes suddenly changed from sighing and sighing to sharp: "The three people I just talked about, one is the most powerful person in the world, one is the richest person in the world, and the other is the strongest person in the world. I can understand that the three of them can face the red gold without changing their faces, but you ......"
"Although you have a certain strength, this strength is not worth mentioning compared to my father, like a yellow croaker compared to a shark; although you have a certain amount of wealth, this wealth is not comparable to the mountains compared to the grain of rice compared to the previous head of the family of Kelsman; although you have experienced many battles and have achieved brilliant achievements, compared with the sword saint Anthony, you are like the sun and the moon compared to the stars, and you are vulnerable!" Prince Kirk asked in an aggressive tone, sharp and sharp. Can you tell me why you face such luxury and wealth without changing your complexion, without being impatient, without being humble or arrogant?"
"Or rather, who are you?" asked the prince Kirk sharply.
Tang Jie faced Kirk's cannon-like attack, and he felt a compelling pressure rushing like a tide!
He pondered for a while, smiled faintly, and said, "My Highness, do you think that the shark on the sea will know the wonderful taste of the delicacies and game in the forest?
As soon as Tang Jie's two metaphors came out, the pupils in Chu Jun Kirk's eyes shrank, and his heart secretly tightened: This man actually used the shark and the dragon and tiger as a metaphor!
How can such a man be of my use?
Prince Kirk raised his head and sighed, and he slowly asked the last sentence: "What do you want? As long as you open your mouth, I will give it to you! As long as you are willing to stand on my side!"
Tang Jie heard the most sincere and sharp words behind all these hypocritical masks, and his heart was shocked, he knew that as long as he answered the slightest carelessly, he would be killed!
How should I answer?
Tang Jie fell silent.
