Chapter 502: Changing the Fate of the Future
The four judges of the world's first martial arts competition have been decided, and after they were announced, the four judges did not cause any special controversy.
As for the Temple, the judge is an elder of the Elder Body of the Temple, who is said to be a retired Holy Knight who was also a strong man in his youth. Of course, at Du Wei's age, he naturally has never heard of his name. From this, it can be inferred that most of this guy only has the strength of seven or eight levels: obviously, if he had the strength of the Holy Rank, the temple would have pushed him out as a banner long ago. If he had ninth-level strength, the temple would not let a few eighth-level knights fill the façade now.
As for the imperial family, the judge sent by Prince Chen is the current chief samurai in the palace, a guy named Chik...... I remember that when he first met Prince Chen, he had seen this person, at that time this guy was Prince Chen's personal bodyguard, and his strength was very good, and it was said that he was also the strong rival of the old Rollin family's alpha guard chief - Alpha was already an eighth-level knight at that time, and he could be Alpha's fierce enemy, and the strength of this Chick was naturally not to be underestimated, and Du Wei also saw him shoot with his own eyes.
When he and Prince Chen first met, the two went to the gold cave outside the city together, and on the way back in the middle of the night, they were ambushed and assassinated by the master sent by the prince, this Chick killed many masters under the command of the prince with strong strength on the spot, obviously this guy is the henchman of Prince Chen.
Originally, the chief samurai in the palace was the guy called the Gray-clothed Sword Holy Land, but unfortunately he was killed by Rodriguez on the day of the coup d'état, and the so-called earth was a son of heaven and a courtier. After Prince Chen ascended the throne. The chief samurai in the court was naturally replaced by his descendant. Now this Chick is already the chief of the palace guard.
Inferred from Dewey. Most of this guy has the strength of the eighth level above. Most likely reached level nine.
The third candidate. It was sent by the Imperial authorities - originally this person was supposed to be Du Wei's. But because Du Wei participated, this candidate fell on Cammisiro, who is also a rookie king and a military general from the army. Comparatively speaking, Camiciro's knighthood is the lowest, he is only six. Moreover, as a vice minister of military affairs, he did. There's not much going on for him to do it himself.
The fourth candidate is naturally the president of our Knight Association, Lord Delong, a "ninth-level" knight!
And the four judges after a meeting and consultation. The basic rules of the game have been worked out.
Actually, it's also very simple, this kind of competition. Winning and losing, most of the time is clear at a glance. Only when some special circumstances arise. will need to judge the winner. And the basic rule is nothing more than that poisons are not allowed. It is not allowed to use poisonous weapons, and it is not allowed to harm opponents with underhanded means...... And so on and so forth.
Of course, there is an additional clause added at the end: in order to ensure the purity of the bloodline of the samurai group in the competition, it is in the middle of the competition. Contestants are not allowed to use any other abilities other than martial arts! This article is mainly to restrict those players who have dual cultivation of magic and martial arts-but Du Wei knows that this is mainly used by the temple to restrict himself.
Camisiro and Du Wei met once. The relationship between the two empire newcomer kings is still very good, on the one hand, because the two had a good personal relationship before. On the other hand. is also because although he is also a "rookie king", Camisiro is actually far lower than Du Wei in terms of power, and everyone has no conflict of interest. to maintain a friendly relationship.
Camichiro teased Du Wei a few words. jokingly asked him why he wanted to participate in the competition, if he really planned to practice good martial arts. Inherit the tradition of the Rollin family and become a general in the future?
Du Wei smiled and casually exchanged a few words to divert the topic, in fact, as the regent's henchman, Camiciro only knew that this competition could not let the people of the temple be in the limelight.
It's not bad right now. Among at least four judges, Camiciro is Du Wei's friend, and the court warrior Chik is the descendant of Emperor Chen, and he will definitely be towards Du Wei. As for Delong...... The flowers and fields he eats and drinks are all Du Wei's money! If you don't listen to Du Wei, who else can you listen to?
Before the game started, Du Wei was almost equivalent to having already dealt with three referees! In such a game, what else did Du Wei have to be afraid of?
These days that followed. There was news in the Duke Tulip's Palace, in order to prepare for the martial arts conference. Duke Tulip decided to retreat and practice his martial arts skills in the best possible condition. So during this time. Duke Tulip does not see guests, nor does he accept any invitations to banquets or the like.
And that's exactly what Du Weidi did. He spent most of his day in the practice ground of the Duke's Palace, where he practiced the special martial art that used the "Ji Du Luo Throat Instant Prison Arrow": Bow Moon Dance!
This is a top-notch martial art created by the gods of the dignified jīng spirit clan! Although Du Wei has only learned a two-and-a-half tune, how powerful is the god-level martial arts? In addition, Du Wei has already practiced the physical skills of the Great Snow Mountain and the Starry Sky Dou Qi so skillfully, in terms of physical fitness, it can be said that he is not inferior to any ordinary master, as long as he does not encounter a saint-level powerhouse, he is confident that he can deal with it.
As for the Holy Rank powerhouse...... Is it possible to participate in such a competition?
Of course, Du Wei was looking forward to seeing if another mysterious angel in the temple would participate in this competition...... If that angel did compete, as long as Du Wei recognized him...... Even if it is made with a black box cāo, Du Wei will definitely be able to find a way to draw himself and the other party together!
When the time comes, if martial arts can't deal with him, will Du Wei really obediently not use magic?
Du Wei thought very clearly! Once he found out who the angel was, he immediately killed the opponent with all his might! What is the violation of magic with magic? Joke! If you can kill an angel, even if you give up the game, what's the big deal!
In addition to practicing the "Bow and Moon Dance" at home, Du Wei also deliberately drew a picture to make an identical longbow out of jīng steel and iron tires in the shape of the "Jidu Luo Throat Instant Hell Arrow".
After all, the power of Ji Duluo's Instant Hellarrow is too strong, and if he really uses this artifact to cast the Bow Moon Dance, then the power will be too great. It will cause a lot of unnecessary deaths and injuries.
This is exactly the same longbow size and weight. It is completely rounded, and even the barbs on the bow horns are exactly the same size as the wind blades.
Of course, in addition to hard work. Du Wei also took a little time: he promised Prince Chen. Take advantage of your time in dìdū. Go to the palace and take care of the education of the two children.
Train a future emperor...... This kind of work. It's quite a sense of accomplishment!
The first time Du Wei gave a lesson to Princess Karina, the prince of Charlie, he almost made a joke. When Prince Charles and Princess Karina sat at their desks and watched the arrival of the youngest teacher, the two little ones were undoubtedly very excited - after all, Du Wei was so famous!
And children are usually very fond of worshipping heroes.
So, Prince Charlie Jr. asked excitedly
"Teacher, what will you teach us?"
"Astronomy. I can teach you whatever you want to learn!" Du Wei replied very sharply -- he had this confidence. Compared to the world in the previous life, the scientific and educational standards of the Roland Continent were really far behind - similar to the feudal era in Europe.
So Du Wei boasted about Haikou.
As a result, little Charlie nodded: "Then let's learn arithmetic." Teacher. Recently, a few of my other teachers have been relying on me to solve some algorithmic problems, and they said that it would be very useful for me to learn these things in the future. ”
Du Wei smiled kindly, he didn't teach his students - after all, the dozens of magic apprentices of the Decepticon team were all his disciples!
So after Du Wei wrote a complete set of four operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, he was about to carefully compare the two little apprentices, when Prince Charles suddenly asked: "Teacher." I ask you...... Why does one plus one equal two?"
Du Wei broke down in a cold sweat at that time!
Of course, one plus one equals two! But why is it equal to two...... How did Du Wei answer this question? In his previous life, he seemed to have heard that this question had something to do with the "Goldbach conjecture"! But in his previous life, Du Wei only went to an ordinary university...... Goldbach guessed that he couldn't solve it! Chen Jingrun has never finished it all in his life, do you expect Du Wei to be able to do it?
Seeing Du Wei stammering, the two children laughed with a prank on their faces - Du Wei knew that he had been tricked!
Soon, Princess Karina took out the "General History of the Mainland" that Du Wei had given her, turned one of the pages, and smiled and pointed to the dense notes written between the paragraphs—which were written by Du Wei himself.
The content of that page is an evaluation of some of the simplest historical and natural overviews of the continent, and then it is evaluated in a positional tone. When Du Wei saw this kind of thing. I was quite touched in my heart and wrote a few lines:
"Actually, the simpler the thing. Often, however, we are unable to provide a profound answer. Our cognition is only superficial. For example, we all know that there are four seasons in a year. But why are there four seasons in a year? We know that there are days and nights every day, but why are there days and black smoke? Well, the church says it was created by the gods...... So why did the gods create it this way? Who can answer? For example, young children know that one plus one equals two...... But why does one plus one equal two? I don't even know about this question!"
When little Karina read this passage, she was moved by these words, and then pondered for a long time. I have to say that this girl is really a genius, and at a young age, she seems to be able to faintly grasp the kind of thoughts that Du Wei had when he wrote these words.
And when they played this prank, the brother and sister did not ask Du Wei "why there are four seasons in a year", because in the eyes of the two, although Du Wei did not explicitly say it in the few sentences he wrote, it was vague that this teacher was likely to know the answer! And this answer was definitely not the "creation of the gods" that other teachers told them!
But even Du Wei himself admitted that he did not know why one plus one equaled two - so the two children deliberately used this question to test Du Wei.
Du Wei was calculated by the two children in the first class, and immediately threw away the teacher's shelf.
He thought for a moment, anyway, he wouldn't be in dìdū for too long, and he wouldn't have a lot of time to teach the two children. In a short period of time, it was impossible to systematically teach two children the completion of any of the subjects - they had the best court scholars to educate them anyway, and they were only a part-time worker. Since it is not possible to teach systematically and completely. Then it's better to just have a "messy cover"!
So Du Wei simply threw away all the lessons he had prepared for the day and chatted casually with the two children.
You can talk about anything, astronomy and geography, throughout the ages, Du Wei does not seek anything else, but only hopes to influence his way of thinking to the two children to the greatest extent.
If nothing else, Du Wei is confident that his way of thinking should be relatively advanced in this era. Moreover, Prince Charles is the one who will be the emperor in the future! After living in this world for 18 years, Du Wei's affection for this world has become deeper and deeper.
From the bottom of his heart, he also hoped that the future emperor would be a good emperor - if there was another mediocre old man like Augustine VI. Then the country is really finished.
Because the time is too short to teach everything completely, Du Wei's main goal is to instill a thinking concept in the two children: nothing is absolute!
He gave an example to the two children: they all know that wolves want to eat sheep. In almost all fairy tales, wolves are described as cunning, cruel, and greedy villains. But the wolf ate the sheep, and the sheep were pitiful. But if the wolf doesn't eat the sheep...... Then the wolf himself will die!
So what about the wolf? What can it do? It has a life of its own, and it has a desire to live.
In the future world, even elementary school students will know this truth. But for this world, Prince Charles and Princess Karina listened very seriously. Princess Karina, in particular, was already in tears when she heard it. This little girl also sighed: "Alas, then when hunting in the future, I must beg my father not to kill wolves in shè." ”
"In fact, there is no right or wrong in this world, only different positions. The wolf wants to eat the sheep, and the sheep don't want to be eaten - everyone is here to survive, there is no right or wrong. ”
Du Wei said.
It is clear that Du Wei's teachings had a great impact on the two children, especially when they were young!
Furthermore. The two little ones are still very different. For example, Prince Charles is a typical Roland royal child, he is young and strong. jīng is abundant. He likes to move, and he likes to hunt on horseback. When he tells the story of history, he always relish the things in the places where the war was fought - this is normal. Children of this age are generally not very patient.
What's more...... When Prince Charles was as young as him, the reason why he opened his mind early was because he was in danger, and there was a bastard father like Augustin VI who regarded his son as a rival, and a big prince who always wanted him to die!
And now, Prince Charles is the only son of the Regent!
In order to grind this child's anxiety, Du Wei thought hard for a day, and finally patted his head and got out the "chess" he knew in his previous life!
This kind of war chess really suited Prince Charlie's appetite, and the little guy cheered after learning the rules, and dragged Du Wei for two full hours in one breath. Although he did not have the opportunity to appreciate real war at a young age, he could still get through the "paper talk" of playing chess, and playing chess was good for honing one's patience and bearing.
Little Princess Karina was not interested in these things, and she preferred to pester Dewey to tell her stories. Tell a variety of stories...... Because of the story that Du Wei told and those palace maids and its
His teacher said something different!
For example, the little girl who sells matches, such as Snow White, such as Peter Pan, such as the daughter of the sea. There is also Du Wei's revised version of "Roland Mainland Journey to the West". In this version of Journey to the West, the Jade Emperor becomes the Pope of the Temple, and the Buddha becomes the Goddess of Light. The Monkey King, on the other hand, was described by Du Wei as a rebellious knight with a fighting god.
However, Du Wei is not a professional storyteller after all, no matter how hard he tries, day by day, all the stories in his stomach are emptied.
In the end, Du Wei scratched his ears and cheeks, and couldn't think of any other stories to tell...... You can't tell an eight-year-old girl those 21st century YY stallion novels on the Internet!
Fortunately, Prince Chen finally relieved him: after all, the matter of the Knight Association is more important than teaching children. As the tournament drew nearer, the regent gave Du Wei an order: the class was suspended!
Although I don't care what the Knight Association revitalizes or not. But now that the temple is also competing, the regent still hopes to take the opportunity to deal a blow to the temple's arrogance!
So, the course ended in a little over a month. At the end of the course. The two children were obviously reluctant to Du Wei. After all, Du Wei's classes were much more interesting than the boring education methods of court scholars. And Du Weide's various whimsical ideas are also very much in line with children's tastes.
Before the end of the last class, Du Wei took out the two gifts he had prepared - in a month, Du Wei had become very familiar with the two children, he sat on the chair, Prince Charles and Princess Karina sat on Du Wei's two legs, Du Wei took out the gifts in the hands of the two of them, and he gave Prince Charles a short magic wand! Although this wand is half as short as that used by normal magicians, it is made of authentic walnut! On top of the wand is an expensive water orchid magic gem! It is very good to use water magic, Du Wei smiled at Prince Charlie, "Your Highness. You know very well that you will not be a magician in the future, but if you are interested in magic, you may also want to read books on this subject, many things of magic are often not as gorgeous as imagined, and there are many useful truths. Earth can restrain water, for example, water can restrain fire, and fire can restrain metal...... If you can understand these truths, it will be more meaningful than learning any real magic!"
And Du Wei's gift to Karina was a copy of the "General History of the Mainland" - of course, the first volume was given by Du Wei last time. This is the second volume! This is an old book, and it also has the notes that Du Wei added to it.
In fact, Du Wei preferred this clever and lovely little girl to Charlie -- she was so smart! Amazingly smart! Even Du Wei often felt that this little girl was the most accepting of his way of thinking than Charlie.
If she's a boy...... She will surely become a great emperor!
Pity...... Du Wei sighed, glanced at Karina, and sighed silently in his heart: It's a pity that you are a girl. Your future destiny is to become a princess. Then marry a nobleman. I have lived a quiet and mediocre life......
"This is the second volume. Du Wei smiled and sent the book to Karina's hand: "Dear little highness, you are still too young. A lot of things in a book like the General History of the Continent are not suitable for your age! So I'll show you the second volume for the time being...... There are 10 volumes in the complete set! In the future, I will give you one volume every year when you are born. Well, you're eight years old, and you don't have eight volumes left for you, that is, until you're sixteen! You'll have all ten volumes, right?"
As he spoke, Du Wei kissed Karina on the cheek and patted her head with a smile.
"Teacher, are you leaving?" Karina squeezed the old book in her hand tightly and whispered, "Are you leaving?"
Du Wei smiled: "No, I won't leave for the time being, but I may not have time to teach you a lesson." I still have a lot of things to do...... Well, if I have the chance, I'll come into the palace to see you. ”
After saying that, Du Wei let go of the two children, stood up, and saluted the two children goodbye.
Before leaving, he glanced at Charlie and said with a smile: "Charlie, grow up quickly! I promise you, when you turn fifteen years old, I will give you the best horse on the continent! It must be the best on the continent!"
Watching Du Wei walk out of the palace, Prince Charlie had a deep sense of loss on his face - he knew that starting tomorrow, he would have to face the white-bearded old man court scholars again.
He glanced at his sister, but saw that Karina had turned away, sat down in her chair, and calmly flipped through the book that Du Wei had given her.
"Karina, aren't you sad that the teacher is gone?" Prince Charlie frowned and looked at his sister.
"Why should I be sad?" Karina raised her head and blinked, at a young age, her tone seemed to have a trace of calmness: "The teacher is one of the most important ministers of the empire, and the smartest person on the continent! A talent like him should not have spent too much time with us two children in the first place - he should have many, many more important things to do! ”
Prince Charles was stunned for a moment, his wisdom was still a little unable to keep up with Karina, but after all, he was a child, he quickly eased from his frustration, took the wand left by Du Wei, and ran out happily, looking for the court magicians who protected him to show off.
Karina, on the other hand, leaned back on the chair quietly, naturally found the most comfortable position and curled up there, looking through the "General History of the Mainland - Volume II" left by Du Wei with a calm face......
Du Wei didn't know that this month's education was not just about playing with children...... This month's time, in the future rìzi, almost affected the future fate of this empire!
Interestingly, in Du Wei's previous life, he often saw extremely vulgar sentences written in some novels that "the wheel of history is rolling", which often caused him to be dissatisfied and scolded.
But this time...... He personally pushed the wheel of history, and even inadvertently changed the trajectory of the wheel! But he himself was ...... I don't know it yet......
As the days go by, the New Year is approaching.
The caravans of the king from the south to the north brought with them novelty goods from all over the continent, satisfying the preparations of people of all walks of life in the empire for the celebration of the New Year. At the same time, in order to welcome the New Year, an order came from the palace, and countless people mobilized to dress up the dìdū in a new look.
At the same time...... rìzi of the "No. 1 Martial Arts Conference in the World" has finally arrived!
