184 Sensibility and Reason, Temptation (6K)
However, after the ecstasy, Zhang Rang's reason was still not overwhelmed by the greedy desire.
He asked, hoarsely, "Are you sure you can give me this power?" Or won't it be under your control? ”
"That's right, it's not such an untrustworthy existence." The black-robed being stretched out a hand forward, which was a psychological hint that could make his words appear more sincere.
"Of course, if you can't trust it, you can also find a trustworthy being to accept the gift from you, and the choice is yours."
The black-robed being chuckled again to give a choice.
However, he looked at this scene in his heart and sneered, he had already seen through the power of these mortal emperors in the face of the power at his fingertips, revealing an ugly look of both longing and hesitation, lest others frame him.
I don't want to think about it, why should a mere mortal ruler have such an existence and calculate it himself.
It's just some energy, and for him, if you give it, you can give it, so why bother with such a trivial matter.
Even if he used a little less energy now, he didn't bother to do anything about such a trivial matter, after all, as long as his strongest clone could come over, it would be an easy matter to take down a dragon that was not in the realm of legends.
When he gets his adventures, the world will be his!
And if he really helped him accomplish such a great plan, what if he let the mortal emperor in front of him become his own god in his own kingdom of God.
He wasn't one of his treacherous old friends, and he wouldn't do such a degrading thing.
If you really anger yourself and dislike it, wouldn't it be more enjoyable to destroy your dynasty with a single blow.
So, what will he choose next?
Was he curious?
Did he accept his gift like any other ugly ruler he had ever seen?
And at this moment, facing the suggestion of the existence of the black robe, Zhang Rang also reacted, and he lowered his head in disbelief and began to ponder.
According to the words of this mysterious existence in front of him, this power must naturally be extremely powerful, and at the very least, it is more powerful than an ancient dragon man like him who can turn into the king of giant beasts, so who should it be given to?
Although this power may be poisonous, it is undeniable that it is a terrifying weapon, once it is obtained by someone with two hearts, it will inevitably be a huge blow to his Great Qin.
In this way, he naturally has to think carefully about the most suitable person.
That's right, Zhang Rang decided to hand over this power to someone else.
Although Zhang Rang also wanted to obtain this power by himself, after some hesitation and consideration, he still decisively refused.
Again, he is the Son of Heaven of Great Qin, and he must be responsible for all the people of Great Qin.
And once this power may really be limited by people in the end, then a puppet Son of Heaven is just a burden and a danger to Great Qin, which is something he will never allow.
Therefore, although he wants power, he must not be able to accept this power himself.
In the final analysis, power can only put the third place in his heart at most.
The first is naturally the Great Qin that he established single-handedly, and the second is that he owes a lot of wives, which is why he has ignored the urging of many ministers for so many years, and only married Zhou Qingqing as the queen, and never took concubines.
After a long groan, Zhang Rang suddenly realized that apart from Wang Weiqin and the queen, who he trusted the most at present, it seemed that there were few candidates in his heart who could really be trusted......
From the beginning of the strong man in the new era with two hearts, he knew that once a person has power, even if the initial heart remains the same, it will eventually change slowly under the ravages of time, even if he is no exception.
And the reason why he currently believes in Wang Weiqin's kid is only because over the years, when Daqin was in turmoil, his actions and deeds have made him gradually entrust his trust.
However, at present, only General Wang cannot be this candidate, this is not because he is stingy.
It's that General Wang has already had his own position in the upcoming crusade - the driver of the dragon machine soldiers!
And this candidate is irreplaceable, because no one in the entire Great Qin except him can completely control the special and incomparable weapon of the Dragon Machine Soldier.
As for why, it's because the Dragoon is different from other large weapons made purely of metal or wood.
It's different from the dragon lance that can be triggered by any person.
It is a special weapon between metal, wood, and flesh and blood, and it took Great Qin countless costs and forbidden techniques to make it alone.
And if this kind of weapon wants to be driven, the requirements are naturally extremely harsh, and at present, only General Wang can drive it.
As for why General Wang was able to control it, it was also thanks to the fact that he had been to the deepest part of the ruins of the Tiandu and had some kind of adventure, which changed his physique.
Speaking of which, the birth of this dragon machine soldier was, in a sense, the scholars of Great Qin who came up with the idea of making such a weapon of war after studying General Wang's body.
Therefore, how General Wang can become this candidate in this situation and give him strength can only be a waste.
So, apart from General Kaiwang, does he have any other candidates to choose from?
First of all, this power must not be given to outsiders, even if it is a loyal secret guard he has cultivated since childhood, he does not dare to be 100% assured.
He didn't even trust such a loyal secret guard, how could he rest assured of other existences.
Since this is the case, then it can only be ......
Alas, Zhang Rang, who sighed slowly in his heart, also flashed a trace of guilt in his eyes, but then it turned into firmness.
Then, he raised his head abruptly, looked solemnly at the black-robed being who was standing there quietly waiting for his answer, and asked loudly, "Your Excellency means that you can let me choose the ownership of this power, right?"
The black-robed existence was stunned for a moment, and he realized in his heart that the development of this matter seemed to be a little different from what he had guessed, but he still nodded and replied: "That's right, the ownership of the power is up to you." ”
"In that case, please wait a moment for your Excellency, and let me go and call someone I trust."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Rang nodded with satisfaction and left.
This......
Seeing that this mortal emperor really left without hesitation, the black-robed existence was really stunned.
Although he already had a premonition in his heart from the previous words, he was still a little stunned when he really faced this moment.
This is a powerful power that he has personally given!
It's a power that can destroy the world!
Can he really resist this temptation and give up?
Is he not afraid of being betrayed by the existence he trusts?
Can't understand that strength is the safest thing only in yourself?
If you have power, you have everything!
Halfway, the black-robed existence that came back to his senses suddenly chuckled as he looked at the direction of Zhang Rang's departure.
A crisp laugh rang out in the flickering hall.
"Interesting, interesting, there are really people who can resist this temptation, Zhang Rang, right? I'm interested in you. ”
At this moment, the existence from the other world really began to face up to this weak mortal emperor of the other world.
For the first time in so many years, he had encountered an existence that had chosen the second option.
I just don't know if there is a day when you are betrayed by someone from around you, how wonderful your expression will be?
At this moment, the existence shrouded in black robes whispered inwardly.
……
At the same time, the other side.
Zhang Rang, who left the main hall at this moment, went straight to the harem, targeting Zhou Qingqing's dormitory.
That's right, his choice is to hand over this power to the closest people around him, and his closest person is Zhou Qingqing, who is the person next to him.
Although it may be a little uncomfortable for her, but ......
Alas, he really had no choice.
He decided to do this, so he seriously apologized to her.
At the same time, if this power is really poisonous, then he will also use the power of the whole country to retaliate against it at all costs, so that he can taste the anger from Great Qin.
After that, he didn't plan to live alone, and after the whole Great Qin settled down, he went to find her, which can be regarded as his last responsibility as a husband.
If this power is not poisonous, then it will naturally be considered a happy person.
As for Zhou Qingqing's betrayal, this concept never appeared in his mind.
This kind of thinking is logically placed on an emperor who attaches great importance to the world, which is a very abnormal idea, this kind of emperor is basically impossible to trust anyone around him, and all hidden threats will be dealt with in advance.
But he really didn't think about it that much, because after all, he was not cultivated as a future emperor like a prince since he was a child from the beginning.
He didn't know anything about the emperor's tricks.
At first, he was just an ordinary snake catcher, but because of a series of changes and the impulse that germinated in his heart, he was pushed step by step to the point where he is now.
Everything I did came from the first dream in my heart.
But no matter how big his dream is, he is still a living person after all, he also has his own selfishness, and there are times when he is vulnerable.
Faced with pressure from hundreds of people across the empire, he sometimes felt the urge to abandon everything and run away.
But he knew that he couldn't do this, and what he was holding up was a heavy responsibility.
Even if he knew that as long as he let go a little, he could easily be a tyrant like the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and enjoy it wantonly.
But is that really still him?
So, he has both a rational side and an emotional side.
If there really is a day, the closest pillow people around him choose to betray him.
Then he also admitted it, which can be regarded as a reward for her debts for so many years.
Sometimes, Zhang Rang also thinks that he is not crazy, he wants to live up to the world and live up to the Qing, but it is a pity that the world has the law of both.
I can only keep oscillating between the two.
After thinking about it, Zhang Rang also came to the dormitory of Queen Daqin, that is, Zhou Qingqing.
Looking at the delicate door close at hand, Zhang Rang raised his right hand to knock on the door and froze.
At this moment, even he was a little hesitant.
However, he froze, which did not mean that Zhou Qingqing in the dormitory could not see it.
It was late at night, and under the bright candlelight, the figure outside was so conspicuous.
"Squeak~"
With the sound of the door opening, a beautiful figure appeared inside the door.
"Brother Niu, you're back."
In an instant, the beautiful woman smiled brightly, with a deep joy in her tone.
In this regard, Zhang Rang also responded, and scratched his head rarely as if he wanted to say something, but for some reason he was stuck.
However, for the pillow person who already knew the roots, Zhou Qingqing knew something at a glance.
Empathetic, she gently took a few steps in front of the man, grabbed the other party's hand, and said softly: "Brother Niu, you don't have to be like this between you and me, Qingqing listen." ”
That's why I'm even more speechless.
Zhang Rang looked at his wife, who never knew the refusal, and said silently in his heart.
But it's all come to this point, and it's impossible to regret it no matter what.
Otherwise, the enemy that he Daqin took the lead in coming to him might be another mysterious existence similar to a true dragon.
He didn't think that in the face of a person who had cheated on him, the other party could still have a good temper.
He sighed slowly, and gently pulled up the beauty's wrist, "Let's talk while walking, and I'll explain it to you on the way." ”
"Oh."
Zhou Qingqing replied softly.
……
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Rang carried Zhou Qingqing back to the previous hall, and along the way he also explained all the reasons to him.
There was no doubt that Zhou Qingqing agreed to his choice without the slightest hesitation, and held his palm comfortingly.
"Your Excellency, I have already decided on a good candidate, I wonder how you are going to fulfill what you promised? Do I need to recuse myself? ”
As soon as he entered the main hall, Zhang Rang asked loudly, and at the same time, he also raised the left hand of the beautiful woman held by him, indicating that this was the person he had chosen.
In this regard, the black-robed existence first shook his head, then nodded, and said, "There is no need for this, since you have already decided, then I will give you this powerful power." ”
As soon as the words fell, he saw that the mysterious existence of the black robe that was still in the distance just now disappeared in an instant, and when it appeared again, it was already not far in front of Zhou Qingqing.
In this regard, Zhou Qingqing and Zhang Rang also stared at each other, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
It was hard to imagine that with their current strength, they still couldn't perceive how this mysterious existence appeared in front of them in an instant.
However, this performance also makes them certain in their hearts, because the stronger the power of the black-robed existence in front of them, the stronger the power given to them in the future.
After thinking about it, Zhang Rang also gently took a few steps back to avoid affecting the next movements of the black-robed store.
But during the whole process, his eyes never left Zhou Qingqing's figure, and perhaps once he noticed that something was wrong, he would quickly stop it.
As Zhang Rang retreated, the black-robed existence also had a new move.
I saw his body shrouded in black robes raise his head.
In the incomprehensible hood, a pair of scarlet eyes lit up from the darkness and looked at Zhou Qingqing.
Without waiting for his reaction, a ray of light shot out from the eyes of the black-robed being, hitting Zhou Qingqing.
In an instant, Zhou Qingqing closed his eyes directly and seemed to be asleep.
And at this time, he didn't wait for Zhang Rang to react, he directly raised a left hand, and under the factor of gravity, he exposed a part of his body for the first time-
A jade-white flawless arm.
In an instant, a faint light appeared from the tip of his raised left finger, turning into mysterious lines, and gradually began to spread from his fingertips to his entire body.
In just a few breaths, the lines spread all over his entire body, and at this time, something beyond Zhang Rang's cognition happened!
In just a few breaths, the black-robed presence of his entire body began to emit a burst of hazy light, and then slowly and steadily turned into a slightly illusory humanoid light and shadow.
At this moment, the black-robed existence directly lost its specific form, and directly turned into a ball of incomparably bright humanoid light and shadow in the slightly dark hall.
"This, this is?"
In an instant, this bizarre scene almost made Zhang Rang exclaim, but fortunately, at the last moment, he reacted and suppressed the exclamation in his throat.
But Rao is like this, Zhang Rang's heart is also full of shock at this moment, he never thought that the black-robed existence he had been dealing with before was not a person!
At this moment, Zhang Rang was confused.
He had always thought that the existence of this black robe was a bit mysterious, but at most it was extremely powerful in terms of strength.
Maybe it was an old antique from the old era of the once destroyed Great Zhou, and even he suspected that he was the founder of the Great Zhou, the legendary Zhou Gaozu!
Otherwise, I can't explain why he hates the real dragon so much, but I didn't expect him to be human?
What the hell is he trading with?
Not to mention Zhang Rang, who was shocked in his heart at this moment and fell into a storm in his mind.
At this time, the black-robed existence with his whole body turned into light and shadow, and he took a step forward directly, and in an instant, his entire body that turned into a light group directly and slowly submerged into Zhou Qingqing's body.
The whole process is as if two drops of ink are slowly converging into one drop when they are close together, and there is no obstacle at all.
And this, the bright light in the entire hall disappeared, and the hall once again fell into darkness, leaving Zhang Rang and Zhou Qingqing, who had been closing his eyes.
Zhang Rang looked around, and couldn't figure out what was going on now, where did the black-robed existence run just now, did it run into his wife's body? And is the bestow of that power over?
At this moment, countless doubts appeared in Zhang Rang's mind, he wanted to get close to Zhou Qingqing, but he was afraid of interrupting the strange ritual, and he fell into an extremely tangled state for a while.
Originally, if he hadn't seen the scene of the black-robed existence turning into light and shadow before, he wouldn't have known and would not have paid attention to these mysterious strange things, and he wouldn't have imagined that there was such a strange existence in this world.
After hesitating for a few minutes, Zhang Rang tentatively whispered:
"Qingqing?"
It's a pity that no one responded to him at all.
Just when he mustered up the courage to step forward.
At this time, a ray of light appeared from Zhou Qingqing's body again, and then in Zhang Rang's surprised eyes, a humanoid light and shadow that was countless times weaker came out of Zhou Qingqing's body, and the next moment slowly re-transformed into a mysterious existence shrouded in black robes.
As soon as he turned into the shape of a black robe, he saw that the black-robed existence suddenly stumbled and almost fell.
At this moment, anyone could see that He was in a state of extreme weakness.
At the same time, with the departure of the black-robed existence, Zhou Qingqing's body also fell to the ground softly.
And this scene was naturally seen by Zhang Rang, who ran over and hugged Zhou Qingqing.
After hurriedly stepping over to catch his wife, his gaze became a little strange for a while.
At this moment, the beautiful woman in his arms also woke up and opened a pair of crystal clear eyes.
"How? You okay? ”
As soon as his wife woke up, Zhang Rang couldn't wait to lower his head and ask her about her situation, lest she have an accident.
In this regard, feeling the concerned eyes of her husband, Zhou Qingqing also felt warm in her heart, and then shook her head.
She didn't break away from its embrace, but just raised a palm, and suddenly a ball of light appeared from her palm.
As soon as the ball of light appeared, it emitted an astonishing aura that made the air around it faintly distort.
At this moment, anyone can see how terrifying this seemingly inconspicuous ball of light is.
At this time, Zhou Qingqing spoke: "I do feel that my strength is countless times stronger now, and I don't feel anything wrong on my body, presumably he shouldn't be deceiving." ”
After speaking, she then looked at the black-robed existence that was a little weak, and then looked at Zhang Rang.
The meaning of this does not need to be explicitly stated.
As soon as the two looked at each other, Zhang Rang understood what his wife meant.
He was also a little moved by this, but he thought about it a little and looked at his wife in his arms, and finally shook his head weakly.
Although he didn't know the true purpose of the existence of the black robe in front of him, he Zhang Rang was not the kind of ruthless and unrighteous person who unloaded the mill and killed the donkey after all.
Whether it is the kindness of a woman or his indecision, his nature has not changed completely after all.
He didn't let go of his wife in his arms, but just turned his head to look at the black-robed existence that was something wrong and said:
"Thank you for your help, since the transaction between us has been completed, you can go and stay after that."
"Don't worry, I, Zhang, am not a treacherous person, after some time, when all the preparations of my Daqin will naturally start the crusade of the real dragon, Zhang and his wife will leave."
After speaking, he directly picked up Zhou Qingqing's body and left directly.
……
"Interesting, let's count you through."
Looking at the two people who had completely disappeared, the somewhat weak black-robed existence that had stood in the main hall before, and his aura had also changed, and he was no longer weak before.
He gently raised one hand and rubbed his chin to himself, muttering to himself.
Obviously, his previous weakness was all faked, and everything was just a temptation.
And now, this mortal emperor of the other world has passed the postgraduate examination that he created for a while, and his heart is indeed rare in his life.
Of course, it is also possible that the differences between the two worlds are uncertain, maybe the people in this world are still in the simple stage, and they are not as dark and cunning as the humans in his world.
Thinking about it, the black-robed existence also chuckled, and then slowly disappeared.
