Chapter 14: Friends Who Have No Words to Say (Part II)
"If I'm not mistaken, you're supposed to be a ...... Ordinary people!"
"Yes, I haven't officially started my practice yet. β
"The Great Pilgrimage Test...... The first place on the list?"
"Yes, I can only take the first. β
Tang Thirty-six's question was very direct and sharp, and Chen Changsheng's answer was very serious and calm, as if he was telling a very simple thing, such as eating should be a reasonable combination of meat and vegetables, not too salty and oily, and should go to bed early and get up early, so as to have a healthy and good body.
Life is to eat, drink and Lazar, which is not bad, and this attitude of lifting weights lightly and turning elegance into vulgarity is also very good - the problem is that the thing of trying to win the first place in the Great Dynasty is really not an ordinary eating, drinking and Lazar. Because you can only take the first, you will get the first, so it is so clear and natural to say, in fact, there is no reason at all.
It's like a powerless child who says that he wants to pull off the whiskers of the most powerful golden dragon in the world and use it as a sword, which is a very beautiful fairy tale, but in reality, if someone really says so, it will only be regarded as a dream. That person must be considered a madman or an idiot, and of course, a peerless genius.
There is only a thin line between a genius and an idiot, and that line is the possibility.
A person like Chen Changsheng, who completely ignores this line and believes in it himself, should be on which side?
Tang Thirty-six has always been very proud and narcissistic, but today he found that a guy who was obviously calm and even a little wooden, naΓ―ve and even a little naΓ―ve, could actually bring a devastating blow to himself in terms of pride and narcissism - logically speaking, it is impossible for an idiot's nonsense to threaten a true genius like him, the problem is that when Chen Changsheng said such a ridiculous thing with serious and firm eyes, he couldn't refute or ridicule it, as if deep down in his heart, he always felt that the impossible possibility could really happen!
If Tang Thirty-six knew that Chen Changsheng had made Mrs. Xu and that woman in the Eastern Imperial Divine General's Mansion and Yahuan Shuang'er all have a moment of speechlessness, then he might feel a lot of comfort, at least he could find a lot of sympathetic partners.
After drinking all the fragrant tea, Tang Thirty-six even chewed the tea subconsciously before he woke up from the previous shock, looking at Chen Changsheng, whose expression had not changed at all, as if he had not said that sentence at all, he couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that this little guy was really speechless.
"It's less than a year...... Although I admire your ambition very much, but from the point of view of reason, I really can't take a good look at you, so it's not good to say anything to you, that will make me too hypocritical, I just want to remind you that the East Imperial God General's Mansion will not let go easily. β
Tang Thirty-six didn't know what grievances there were between Chen Changsheng and the Eastern Imperial Divine General's Mansion, in his mind, Kyoto was the first good capital under the rule of the Holy Empress after all, and even if the Eastern Imperial Divine General's Mansion secretly used some means to obstruct Chen Changsheng's future, it was impossible to do anything too excessive.
Chen Changsheng was silent for a while and said, "I'll try to avoid them as much as possible. β
Tang Thirty-six said: "Can you dodge? Even the star picking didn't admit you." β
Chen Changsheng said: "This is also what I don't understand. β
Tang Thirty-six said: "The Eastern Imperial Divine General's Mansion can't affect the Star Picking Academy, Xu Shiji doesn't have that ability, I heard that ...... It was someone in the palace who spoke, so I'm really curious about what is the secret of the problem between you and the Eastern Imperial God General's Mansion that will actually involve the palace. β
Chen Changsheng was very surprised when he realized that the Star Picking Academy did not admit him, and there was such a secret behind it, so he forgot to say something for a while, and when he woke up, he felt better - the Star Picking Academy he respected would do those things that were not worthy of respect in the face of force majeure.
The next question is, why does Lu have that force majeure?
Not to mention the distant and mysterious Great Western State, there are many places on the Middle-earth continent that are high up and not approached by mortals, such as the mountain gates of some major sects in the south, and the Snow City in the north...... And with the Great Zhou leading the human race to the final victory in the war with the demons, the Great Zhou Kyoto Imperial Palace has become the most remarkable place.
Legend has it that there are countless strong people in that palace who have passed through the secluded realm as servants, legend has it that there is an old eunuch in that palace who is a master of the star gathering realm, and legend has it that there is a green bamboo sedan chair in the palace, and legend has it that there is even a peerless dragon in that palace that is mighty and loyal for thousands of years!
In the previous fourteen years of his life, Chen Changsheng had a lot of knowledge about the Great Zhou Palace through books, but he never thought that his life would be connected with such a lofty and mysterious and terrifying place, thinking of what Tang Thirty-six said, he was silent, and he couldn't figure it out.
"There are countless dogs kneeling in front of the Holy Queen Mother's curtain, Xu Shiji is the more vicious one, but there is no way to ask those people in the palace to put pressure on the Star Picking Academy. Even if he could, he didn't need to spend such a big price, then, he didn't need to pay too much, but the nobles in the palace took the initiative to do it......"
Speaking of this, Tang Thirty-six's vague conjecture that had been a little vague before suddenly became clear, but looking at Chen Changsheng's childish face, he felt that his thoughts were a little chaotic - could it be that this guy who couldn't even invite guests to dinner was really ...... What does it have to do with that phoenix?
He really wanted to ask Chen Changsheng what was going on, but through today, he was already very clear about Chen Changsheng's temperament, and he knew that since the other party was unwilling to say it, then he wouldn't say anything, so he could only say: "...... The really important person in the East Imperial Divine General's Mansion has always been her, you have to be clear about that. β
When he said this, he kept looking into Chen Changsheng's eyes.
Chen Changsheng was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked, "She...... What kind of person is he?"
Tang Thirty-six's expression remained unchanged, but his heart had already set off a shocking wave, through Chen Changsheng's words, as well as the subtle changes in his expression when he spoke, he could be very sure that there must be a problem between Chen Changsheng and that phoenix, but he didn't know what kind of problem it was.
"It's hard to describe what kind of person she is, whether it's rumors or relays, there's nothing too peculiar about her temperament. β
When Tang Thirty-six said this, he found it really difficult to explain, and it wasn't until he saw Chen Changsheng's eyes that he suddenly figured out something.
She ...... Much like you. β
"She's also a guy who can't talk to anyone. β
"Of course, you leave people speechless because your attitude is too calm, and the tone of your voice is too annoying, which makes people want to vomit blood in a depressed mood...... It is rumored that she doesn't talk much and rarely interacts with outsiders, but she, like you, is easily depressed and wants to vomit blood. β
Chen Changsheng was a little puzzled.
"You and she are friends who have nothing to say, but in a completely different way, she doesn't need to speak, she doesn't need to be sarcastic, she doesn't need contempt, she doesn't need to be condescending...... As long as she exists, just standing there is enough to make many people want to vomit blood in frustration. β
Tang Thirty-six was silent for a moment, and said a little lonely: "I admit that those people also include me...... With the blood of Tianfeng, he awakened on his own when he was a child, and his cultivation was extremely smooth, but his understanding was still very strong, his perseverance was also strong, and he was strong in everything...... Don't you think such people are excessive?"
"It seems like it's a bit excessive. β
Chen Changsheng thought for a while, and then said, "But ...... It doesn't seem to be to blame her. β
"A girl who makes all the geniuses in the world despair, a genius who makes the world have nothing to say, this kind of person is hateful. β
"That doesn't make sense. β
"Which side are you on?"
"Why can't you stand on her side?"
"Because...... Not everyone can stand next to her. β
Tang Thirty-six looked at him quietly and said, "She is really special, in fact, many people think that probably only Akiyama-kun is qualified to stand there. β
With that, he left the inn.
Chen Changsheng was stunned, began his daily activities, wiped the table until it was dusty, rarely did not go to the bath, rarely did not read, walked to the courtyard, moved a bamboo recliner and lay under the tree, through the alienated petals and the growing green leaves, looking at the beautiful stars in the night dome, there was no emotion on his childish face.
Hearing the names of Xu Yourong and Akiyama-kun again, his expression remained unchanged, and his emotions inevitably fluctuated, after all, he was only a fourteen-year-old boy - that kind of slightly sour and slightly depressed mood was an emotion that he had been very reluctant in the past, but he had already experienced it twice after entering Kyoto.
Four consecutive college exams failed because of the East Imperial Divine General's Mansion, he was very angry, and the palace came forward to suppress the opinion of the Star Picking Academy, not because of the Eastern Imperial Divine General, but because of her, which made him even more angry, coupled with the sour mood at this time, he found that he hated the little girl named Xu Yourong more and more.
When he was a child in the temple, he told his senior brother that he might hate people, but he would not learn to hate people.
Now he was starting to hate the little girl.
Yes, even the Tianfeng True Girl who silenced countless sect geniuses and snowy boys was just a little girl in Chen Changsheng's consciousness.
He remembered very well that she was born on November 11, three days younger than himself.
A small day is also small, let alone three days.
This little girl is really annoying.
Chen Changsheng's mood became worse and worse, and he wondered how the master had ordered such a family affair for himself? He rolled over from the chair, untied a small thing made of bamboo from his belt, put it in the box in the deepest part of his luggage, and then began to wash his face and hands, washing himself cleanly, and his mood finally improved a lot.
There was a marriage letter in that box, the little thing made of bamboo, which he sent from Kyoto when he was eleven years old, and he remembered the white crane that sent the thing, the letter that came with the thing, and the words in the letter, and he remembered very clearly that the white crane never came again after that day.
......
......
Tonight.
A white crane landed on the summit of the Southern Virgen Peak.
Under the starry sky, there was a young girl sitting on the cliffside.
