Chapter Seventy-Seven: Nothing is in vain
The appearance of the Demon Lord brought great pressure to Chen Changsheng. The secrets of his body have been discovered, and he will most likely face the greedy eyes of the whole world. The conversation on the island brought him more pressure. It is also the secret of his body, and the broken meridians will make him die in the near future, and this is also known.
It turns out that those broken meridians were blown open by the sun wheel, and it turns out that he is really a descendant of the Chen royal family, so will he be the prince of Zhaoming? If he is a descendant of the Chen royal family, then the encounter on the bank of the river in the sixteenth year is naturally not a coincidence, the teacher must have known his life experience, and the senior brother also knows?
That's the biggest pressure on him right now.
-- He had to start facing up to a lot of things. If the appearance of the Demon Lord in Hanshan is really a game, it means that he may be abandoned, and if he goes from Xining Town to Kyoto is also a game, then what role has he been playing ignorantly?
In the past, whether he was applying for the Qingteng Sixth Academy or participating in the Great Dynasty Examination, no matter what obstacles and difficulties he encountered, he was not too worried, because he thought that his roots were in the old temple in Xining Town, and his real confidence lay in his teachers and senior brothers.
Trust is no longer as sure as it used to be, how can the Dao Heart be as tranquil as it used to be?
If even Senior Brother Yu Yu can't believe it, then who else can he rely on in this world?
Chen Changsheng is often praised for having a calm and calm that far exceeds his years, but he is only a sixteen-year-old boy after all.
When things developed to this day, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and looked at the smoke on the lake in a daze, feeling a little sad.
Footsteps suddenly sounded on the stage.
Tang Thirty-six and Folded Sleeves walked over.
They looked at Chen Changsheng's back and were a little worried.
Since Chen Changsheng came back, he hadn't spoken, he seemed extremely silent, and even a little lonely, obviously something had happened.
"What did the old man tell you?"
Tang Thirty-six finally couldn't hold back, walked up to him and asked.
Chen Changsheng leaned against the railing, still refusing to speak, looking a little confused.
Folded sleeves suddenly said: "I don't believe that there are unsolvable problems in this world. ”
Chen Changsheng straightened up, turned to look at him, and asked very seriously, "What if there is?"
The answer of the folded sleeve is very much in line with his character, simple and tough: "The big deal is death." ”
Tang Thirty-six added beside him: "And if you want to die, it's often not so easy. ”
Chen Changsheng looked at them, and suddenly said, "Do you believe it, I'm Prince Zhaoming?"
When he didn't want to say it, he naturally didn't say anything, but after all, he was still a little unwilling, so he opened his mouth and said that he had to say the most important thing.
Hearing this, Tang Thirty-six glanced at his folded sleeves, a little nervous.
In fact, there have been rumors about this in Kyoto for a long time, but both he and Chen Changsheng himself felt that it was too nonsense, so they didn't take it seriously. But at this time, since Chen Changsheng asked so formally, it means that the old man Tianji and Chen Changsheng talked about this matter, and ...... This may be true.
The folded sleeves were still expressionless, and they didn't give Tang Thirty-six any help.
Tang Thirty-six looked slightly stunned, then laughed, looked at Chen Changsheng and said, "What are you talking about? ”
Chen Changsheng didn't smile, quietly looked into his eyes and said, "Don't you often say that I am precocious and that I look like an old man?"
"How many years old can you be in the air?
Tang Thirty-six said with a mocking face.
Listening to such an indecent analogy, Chen Changsheng didn't get angry, he still didn't laugh, and continued to ask seriously: "If I am, then what?"
Tang Thirty-six quieted down, looked at him and said seriously: "Even if you are, so what? Just treat this as a plate of pig's ears and cold salad." ”
Chen Changsheng knew that he was persuading himself to ignore it, but he ......, "Will the Holy Queen Niangniang let me live?"
Tang Thirty-six said: "In the Zhou Garden, is Nanke ready to let you live? On the mountain road, is the Demon Lord ready to let you live?"
Chen Changsheng understood what he meant, and the look of confusion on his face gradually faded.
p> "If someone wants you to die, it doesn't mean that you have to die, no matter who it is, Nanke, Demon King, or Niangniang." ”
Tang Thirty-six looked into his eyes and said, "On the bright side, if you are really Prince Zhaoming, then as long as you survive, you will be the first heir to the throne of the Great Zhou." ”
When he said this, his expression was very serious, but the content of what he said was extremely unserious.
He knew that Chen Changsheng had no interest in such a thing as the throne, and he just wanted to use these words to dilute the current oppressive atmosphere.
"Speaking of which, the Pope and the Great Zhou Emperor, which one is better?" he asked with a smile as he looked at Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng did not answer this question, and the person who answered was folding his sleeves. The young man of the wolf clan, who has always been extremely indifferent to the world, came up with an idea a little clumsily: "It's better to be the emperor, there is an army under his hands, there are thirty-eight god generals, and he will fight with the demon clan in the future, and he will be the commander." ”
That's nice.
It's nice to have friends like that.
Chen Changsheng thought in his heart.
Xining didn't know if it was false, and he didn't know if it was false, but at least he could now be sure that these days in Kyoto were incomparably real.
"Thank you. He said to Tang Thirty-six and Folded Sleeves, and then felt something, and said, "I have some things to deal with first." ”
Folding his sleeves didn't know what he was going to deal with, Tang Thirty-six guessed it very lightly, especially after sensing the breath fluctuations coming from his magic weapon, he saw the skirt shadow passing by the shallow water of the white sand downstairs, which made him very depressed, thinking that he was really a forgetful guy.
......
......
The jujube kernel lies quietly in the white sand, in the clear lake water, I don't know if it is because of her breath, this jujube kernel has become the object that many swimming fish in the lake are very willing to get close to, the surface is pecked extremely clean, very smooth, it looks like a stone with some carved lines.
Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong sat on the edge of the stage, their feet immersed in the lake water, they did not deliberately sit closer to the ground, and their shoulders touched lightly from time to time.
This distance, this rhythm, this calmness, is what they are most accustomed to and what they like most, just like how they feel about each other.
Xu Yourong said softly: "It is a very happy thing to have such a friend. ”
Chen Changsheng said: "You...... Don't you have such friends?"
Then he remembered that she had been a little princess pampered by the whole Kyoto since she was a child, and she was the successor carefully cultivated by the Holy Queen and the Holy Maiden. Since she was five years old, she has left the ordinary world, so it is indeed difficult to have ordinary but extremely precious friends.
Xu Yourong smiled slightly and said, "All the senior sisters and sisters in Zhai...... Even the elders other than the teacher respected me, and there was no way to talk casually, but I had some acquaintances in the town next to the mountain who could talk about some things...... I'll introduce you to each other later. ”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng was a little curious, thinking to himself, how could there be your acquaintances in an ordinary town?
"If you really want to talk about friends...... In fact, it is more like the senior brothers in the mountains, but after all, they are not in the same place, and there are relatively few opportunities for contact. ”
"I heard...... The place where Akiyama-kun practiced his sword is not far from Cijian Temple?"
"What do you want to ask?"
"Nothing. ”
"Well, you're not wrong, I've always regarded my brother as a very important friend. ”
"The problem is, he certainly wouldn't think so. ”
"Her Royal Highness Luoluo worships you as a teacher, but I don't know what she thinks. ”
"I can't talk about you. ”
"Because you don't make sense. ”
"Okay. ”
"Why don't you speak?"
"What do you want to hear?"
"You...... Is it really Prince Zhaoming?"
The wooden platform downstairs suddenly became quiet.
The water of the lake gently swayed, the white sand remained still, and the swimming fish avoided it far away, as if sensing the change in atmosphere.
Chen Changsheng was silent for a long time and said, "I don't know, but I don't think so. ”
Xu Yourong tilted his head slightly and leaned lightly on his shoulder.
