December 25, 2020 at 7:30 a.m.

France, Paris, Palais de Chail.

The annual Christmas dinner was not affected by the bad situation, and was held as scheduled in the white parlor of the Chauyo Palace, where the French rococo hall was a dazzling gold and a pure white, the golden chandeliers and white bone china complemented each other, the white wainscoting and the gold-trimmed danja carved trees, and if it weren't for the green Christmas tree at the door and the roses in the vase on the dining table, it added a touch of nature to this magnificent palace, and it looked a little overly otherworldly.

The people sitting at the table are eating mainly turkey, bacon sausage, kale, and some root vegetables, and the men are all dressed in tuxedos, while the women are dressed in evening dresses, and everyone is elegant and elegant.

Sitting on the throne, the god Philip was holding a knife and fork to cut a piece of foie gras, he looked down at the fat brown foie gras on the plate, and said without raising his head: "Your Excellency, today is Christmas, relax your mood, enjoy the food and gifts, just like childhood......

"Childhood, my childhood is only remembered by the teacher!" said Michel, the French commander, as he turned his head to his wife, who was twenty years older than him, and whispered softly.

The two exchanged tender eyes in public, and openly sprinkled a large handful of dog food, which made the faces of the people around them smile with empathy.

But the pleasure on Michel's countenance was fleeting, and he immediately said with a little apprehension: "Lord Philip, the only gift I want is the news of the victory from Christianfeld, and if the old nobles are victorious, I really don't know what crazy things they will do! I guess Napoleon VII will be restored...... France and even Europa will be regressed to the last century."

"There's no need to be so afraid of the monarchy....."

Philip's answer made Michel's heart tremble, he stopped the knife and fork in his hand, interrupted Philip's words a little impolitely, turned his head to look at Philip, and said, "Lord Philip, you mean you support the monarchy?"

General Philip was quite unimpressed by Michel's aggressive gaze, he forked a piece of freshly cut foie gras with a fork, and said with a smile: "I am different from you young people, I have gone from the old era to the new era, I have experienced one more era than you, and I have witnessed how the new era subverts the old era, so I have one more layer of thinking than you, that is, the meaning of tradition to society." Although the ever-changing technology overthrows an era and establishes a new era, the tradition has not disappeared because of this, perhaps it has been lost for a short time, such as China, but as long as it passes some time, it will be more deeply rooted in the depths of society. ”、

After a pause, Philip put the foie gras on the fork into his mouth, the fat foie gras melted in his mouth, he closed his eyes for a moment, and continued: "Good things cannot avoid cruelty, but people always only see the good side, just like children believe that there will be Santa Claus at Christmas, and adults always believe that a group of people can be found through the majority election rule to meet the needs of all." But actually, you and I both know that people do not have the ability to think and act on their own, and they cannot have a will that belongs to them. Only individuals have the ability to think and act, but each person's needs and goals can be completely different or contradictory. Therefore, no one can combine all individual needs and purposes into a will of the people. So the Will of the People, like the unicorn, is just a fantasy. The so-called elections, election and election, are all about maintaining the power and rent-seeking interests of their interest groups....."

The god Philip used sharp words to expose the fact that the king was not wearing clothes, and the face of Commander Michelle immediately became gloomy, and said: "Philip God, you are denying the values of our Western society!" The reason why he came to attend Philip's Christmas dinner was to persuade Philip to intervene in the battle between the Rosicrucian and Ou Yu as soon as possible, although Ou Yu currently has the advantage, if the loss is too large, it will also be unbearable for Ou Yu.

The quickest way to end this fight as soon as possible is for God Philip to support Ou Yu.

But Commander Michelle seems to have heard a terrible remark from the mouth of the god General Philip.

General Philip shook his head, with his signature kind smile on his face: "Don't be nervous, Michelle, I didn't say that I support the monarchy, although I think the monarchy is a little superior to the republic, but it doesn't mean that we don't have a third choice, the human concept traps itself between these two choices, but moving towards that perfect goal can bring completely different results....."

"What do you mean?"

"I support the struggle between you, and even though you are both biting each other for power, I believe that the struggle promotes evolution. God Philip will raise his knife and fork and start cutting foie gras again, "I will support whoever you win, I am so slippery....."

Commander Michel's expression gradually stiffened, and he was about to continue to persuade Philip, when Claude Gaion, the secretary general of the General's Palace, hurriedly walked to Philip's side, bent down and whispered a few words.

The originally relaxed Philip God instantly restrained the smile that had been floating on his face all the time, and turned it into a taut bowstring, he immediately stood up and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm very sorry that the dinner is coming to an end now, but please don't leave, follow Gaion to the underground bunker to rest for a while......"

The scene of the staggered banquet was suddenly pressed by the god Philip God pressed the pause button, and everyone present did not know what was happening, put down the crystal cup in their hands, the silver knife and fork, and stopped talking, looking at each other to figure out what was going on.

Commander Michel knew that something was wrong, and immediately asked, "Lord Philip, what happened? It can't be the Rosicrucian...... Won't you?"

"It's worse than that. General Philip stepped out of his seat, looked back at Michelle, and said solemnly, "The Sith the Clown has planted countless poison gas devices in the sewers of Paris, and in about a quarter of an hour these poison gases will begin to spread throughout the city of Paris......

"Oh my God!" Commander Michelle stood up suddenly, the chair that hit almost overturned, the harsh sound made the entire banquet hall quiet, everyone looked at the original Commander Michelle, and Commander Michelle also realized his gaffe, but at this moment he couldn't care about so much etiquette, and staggered to catch up with the departing Philip Commander, and grabbed Philip's sleeve in a little panic, "Lord Philip, is your message accurate?"

General Philip glanced at Michelle and whispered, "Are all the people in your office rubbish?" The Clown Sith not only did a live broadcast on TV, but also appeared on all social networks, and no one has told you yet!?"

"It's Christmas today! Holidays, Christianfeld to Christianfield..... There weren't many people around me .....," Commander Michelle's dry voice trembled in the warm, hot air.

God Philip shook off Michelle's hand and said, "You hurry back to the Elysee Palace to preside over the post-disaster emergency, and I will be in charge of the Sith the Clown." ”

Hearing that the god Philip said that he was in charge of the Sith the Clown, Grand Commander Michel breathed a sigh of relief, but he became nervous again when he thought that he was going to risk his life to return to the Elysée Palace: "But the poison gas will be released in only a quarter of an hour! ”

"Put on a gas mask. ”

"Can I borrow your office?" said Archsan Michelle, weakly,

Ignoring Commander Michelle, the god Philip walked briskly towards the depths of the corridor, and as he went, he asked, "Gaion, can you determine the location of the Sith the Clown?

"Today, the first group of protection is still there, some of the second group are on vacation, some of them are on vacation, some of them are in Christianfeld, and the second group is in Germany. Claude Gaion lowered his head and said in a ashamed tone, "There's no way to know for sure yet, but he posted a bounty on the Chosen One forum." ”

"Bounty post?"

Claude Gayon rolled his throat, tensed his face and whispered, "Yes, the mission is to find his body in Paris and kill him..... The prize is the control switch of the gas device......"

The god Philip didn't speak, staring at the void ahead with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

The two walked silently through the corridor, turning two corners to an elevator door manned by gendarmes, and after verifying fingerprints and iris, the elevator door to the bunker opened silently.

The god Philip turned his head to Claude Gaion and said, "You go and help Commander Michel, that coward will definitely not have the courage to leave the Xia You Palace." ”

"Yes, Master Philip. ”

When Claude Gaion turned around, the priest Philippe said, "Also, inform Lurte to protect the Louvre." ”

"Yes, Master Philip. Claude Gaion turned back and said, then he hesitated and asked, "Lourte is not here, I'll go and help Commander Michel, what about the Sith the Clown?"

"I'm going to deal with him personally. ”

Philip walked into the elevator without looking back, and then pressed the close button.

Claude Gaion watched the silver alloy door slowly close, and the gray-haired god Philip disappeared from his vision, and turned back the way he came. As he walked back to the corridor leading to the ballroom, he stopped and looked out the window.

The statue of Fuxi on the Place de la Drocadelo is covered with snow, and fireworks are still being set off under the Eiffel Tower, with bright lights, flying snowflakes and towering Eiffel Towers becoming the most beautiful background for the fireworks.

Claude Gaion opened the Uloporos on his wrist and sent a message, and after receiving the reply, he muttered to himself: "This is really the most beautiful death knell of this rotten era." ”

——————————————————————————

Bai Xiuxiu contacted the members of the Qianlong group in Hamburg, and the connection was none other than Cao Yiwei. Led by Cao Yiwei, they drove the car to a second-hand car market on the outskirts of Hamburg.

The entire second-hand car trading market is like a huge parking lot, and the heavy snow covers the neatly parked vehicles, and after parking the cars stolen from the "Wrath of Odin", Cao Yiwei and a member of the Qianlong group drove a container truck.

Cao Yiwei jumped out of the cab and walked to the back to open the locked container door, and a rotten sour smell came to his nose, especially on a cold snowy day. Cao Yiwei shouted to a group of students standing in the snow: "Hurry up and get in the car, squeeze a little, just hold on for a few minutes!"

Zhang Hongjun took the lead and climbed onto the container truck, and the others immediately held their breath and climbed onto the container truck in an orderly manner.

Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun stood side by side in the line, waiting to get on the bus. The snowflakes were floating in the high beams of a container truck behind, and the Taijilong students were angry, and climbed onto the container truck with the help of the students who had already gone up, and saw a girl shivering from the cold, Cao Yiwei took off his leather coat and covered her body, and said softly: "It's hard work......"

"Thank you. The girl replied with a "thank you" and boarded the container truck. When it was Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun's turn, Cao Yiwei stopped Cheng Mo and said, "You two wait a minute." ”

Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun didn't know what was going on, they glanced at each other, stood aside and waited silently. When only the two of them did not get into the car, Cao Yiwei said loudly: "Everyone hold on for a while." After speaking, he directly closed the door of the container truck, turned to Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun, and made a gesture to come over, "You two go to the cab." ”

"Isn't that good?" Xie Minyun said with a frown.

"It doesn't matter. All the Mi people at the military station have been evacuated, and now the controllers are our people, if it weren't for your cars being too eye-catching, it would be fine to drive directly to the station. Cao Yiwei said.

At this moment, a container truck behind turned on the flashing lights, as if asking why he hadn't left yet, Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun turned around and saw Bai Xiuxiu in the cab of the container truck behind.

"Hurry up, don't waste time. Cao Yiwei turned and walked towards the cab.

Cheng Mo pulled Xie Minyun, Xie Minyun did not express any further objections, and the two of them walked towards the cab holding hands and stepping on the snow. Boarding the car, Cao Yiwei handed them biscuits, fruit candy and two bottles of water, and then started the container truck and drove towards the outside of the second-hand car market.

Cheng Mo had eaten space food on Babos, and he was not hungry, but he just drank two sips of water and gave up. Xie Minyun, who didn't eat much, opened the biscuit, chewed it and ate it slowly.

Cheng Mo put down the mineral water, looked at the deep night and asked, "Brother Cao, what happened in Germany?"

"All the German troops have withdrawn to the side of the border between Denmark and Germany, Germany has been controlled by right-wingers, and now there are riots in many cities, the entire country's network is completely blocked, and external traffic has been temporarily interrupted.....," Cao Yiwei said after a pause, "You are taking the super high-speed train that Ouyu is still in the experimental stage, which is a secret project, and no one can take care of it...... So don't worry, you'll be able to get back safely. ”

"I hope so!" Cheng Mo said.

Seeing that Cheng Mo didn't seem to be at ease at all, Cao Yiwei smiled and said, "Don't worry! You can get to Paris in an hour, and there is a god Philip in Paris, and there will be no accidents." When you arrive in Paris, we will also meet you, so you can go straight to Le Bourget airport and return home smoothly. ”

"Le Bourget......" Cheng Mo whispered, then closed his eyes, and a map of the city of Paris suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Yes, Le Bourget, you and Xiao Xie also know the person who answered you...... It's Vodianova......"

Cao Yiwei babbled about what happened in Germany, and the car came to a place like a shipbuilding, and the container truck passed through the iron gate easily, and the doorman didn't even come out to take a look. The area of the factory is very large, and there are many white rectangular buildings that look like docks. There are also many tall hanging towers inside, and the lights on the hanging towers are not turned off, emitting a faint light in the wind and snow.

Cao Yiwei drove the car to a white factory building that looked like a "dock", said "arrived", pushed the car door and jumped out of the car.

Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun also got off the container truck and helped him open the door of the container truck. Despite the crowding and stuffiness, no one complained and made a sound, and under the illumination of the container truck behind, the students of Taijilong quietly jumped off the container truck one by one and stood next to it to wait.

When all the personnel arrived, Bai Xiuxiu counted the number of people again, and everyone lined up and followed Cao Yiwei into the white factory, there was no light on inside, it was pitch black, but with the faint light of Cao Yiwei's flashlight, Cheng Mo could barely see some scenes. The interior of the plant is not like a station at all, but like a high-speed rail maintenance station, with several trains parked vertically, but the appearance of these trains is not the same as the shape of ordinary bullets, the locomotive is flat and flat, and many trains are still hanging manipulators next to them. There was no air conditioning in the factory, the air was cold and stuffy, and there was a special smell of steel. The walls on both sides are dark gray cement painted with German and Ouyu logos.

Cheng Mo looked up, and with his empty eyes, he could see that the roof in the dark seemed to be densely covered with brackets and downlights, presumably turning on the power, and the place would be illuminated. The whole factory was quiet and scary, only the footsteps and breathing of the Taiji Dragon students were sounding, and there was a feeling of suffocation in silent marching in such an environment.

Soon Cao Yiwei led them down the stairs made of iron and walked to a train parked next to the cement platform on the far left, which had no windows on its body, and even the doors could not be seen, and it seemed to be formed in one piece. Cao Yiwei ran to the front of the car and patted it, the front door of the train opened, Cao Yiwei talked to the people standing in the front of the car for a few words, and the door of the train car suddenly floated out at the front of the car, and then slid backwards.

Cao Yiwei, who was standing at the front of the car, shouted: "Let's get in the car!"

Bai Xiuxiu, who was at the back of the line, also waved his hand and said, "Everyone get in the car, don't push." ”

Tai Chi Long students lined up to get on the train at the nearest carriage according to their standing position. Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun fell at the end, and said "goodbye" to Cao Yiwei before getting into the car.

Before the car door closed, Cao Yiwei waved at Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun and said, "Have a good trip! ”

Cheng Mo nodded, wanting to say something blessed, but he didn't know what to say.

"We are waiting for you in the capital, and when the time comes, Cheng Mo and I will invite you to dinner, and we still owe you a happy wine. Xie Minyun, who was leaning on the wall of the carriage, said.

"Okay!" Cao Yiwei smiled and nodded.

"Hiss!" sounded, like the sound of a raft deflating, the car door closed, and Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun could no longer see the situation outside. When the two of them walked into the carriage, they found that there were only lights in the carriage, no seats, and everyone was sitting on the ground in the carriage.

Fu Yuanzhuo waved at Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun and said, "This way." ”

Cheng Mo, who heard the call, walked over with Xie Minyun and sat down next to Fu Yuanzhuo.

Fu Yuanzhuo complained: "What kind of car is this? Why doesn't it even have a seat?"

Cheng Mo touched the floor of the carriage and laid a layer of rubber pads, there were obvious friction marks on the rubber pads, probably letting go of something, but looking at the situation, there must have been no one sitting there. I didn't expect them to become the first batch of guinea pigs, and I don't know if something will go wrong. Of course, Cheng Mo would not say that this was still an ultra-high-speed train in the experimental stage, and said lightly: "It's good to have some seats." ”

"Yes, I wasn't satisfied that I didn't let you walk to Paris! I still picked and choose!" He Muxian immediately agreed.

"I'll just ask..... The main reason is that this accidental type looks tall, but it is also a little too simple inside, and it is a little strange..... "Fu Yuanzhuo said, "It is said to be transporting goods..... Doesn't it seem like a luxury to ship goods with such a sci-fi thing?"

"It's kind of weird. Tang Xiaospoon nodded, "Not even a window." ”

At this time, the wind began to flow in the carriage, and the wind speed became faster and stronger, and Cheng Mo's hair was raised. There were no seats, and many people couldn't sit still and leaned to the side. But soon the train was stable again, and the air in the carriages was still.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to chat quietly.

"Amida Buddha! Save the suffering and save the great world of Guanyin! Rulai Buddha! Fight to defeat the Buddha! Jade Emperor! Jesus Christ! Allah Allah! Please let the gods bless us to reach Paris smoothly! As long as we can return home safely, I will definitely add hundreds of thousands to the gods.... No..... Millions of sesame oil money!" He Muxian folded his hands and prayed sincerely.

"Who are you asking for? Fighting to defeat the Buddha is here! Fighting to defeat the Buddha is not keeping peace! What's more, of course our XX successor asks for Grandpa Mao!" Fu Yuanzhuo said.

"Then did you bring a hundred Huaxia coins?" He Muxian asked.

"What's the matter? Who still carries cash these days!" Fu Yuanzhuo said.

"Say goodbye to Grandpa Mao!" He Muxian replied confidently.

Everyone laughed.

"There is a photo of my grandfather and Grandpa Mao in my mobile phone..... Gu Feifei on the side interjected, he took out his mobile phone, but he pressed the power button twice, but he couldn't light up the screen, he could only say regretfully, "The mobile phone is broken, I don't know that such a big thing has happened in Denmark, what is the situation in the outside world ....."

"It is estimated that the world has been turned upside down, and maybe the third world war has begun!" He Muxian said.

"I don't know if it's World War III, but it's definitely a war!"

.........

Everyone began to discuss with each other, and Cheng Mo leaned on the cold carriage and closed his eyes without saying a word.

Xie Minyun turned his head to look at Cheng Mo's side face and asked, "What are you thinking?"

"I wonder if Paris can really stay out of it?"

"Didn't Brother Cao say that God Philip would be in Paris? I don't think his information should be wrong!"

Cheng Mo was always a little uneasy in his heart, maybe it was because he was naturally suspicious, as long as he was not in an environment that he could control, he was extremely insecure, he opened his eyes and whispered: "I hope!"

"You're always in the habit of thinking about the worst of things. It's good to plan ahead, but I don't think it's necessary to trap yourself in pessimism no matter what, and it puts too much pressure on yourself. ”

"Well, I'll try to be optimistic. ”

Xie Minyun hugged Cheng Mo's arm, leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "I'm here!" ”

"Hmm!"

"I really want to kiss you now. But I feel embarrassed that there are so many people. Xie Minyun said in a subtle voice in Cheng Mo's ear.

The soft and warm wind poured into Cheng Mo's ears, making his heart like a bird fluttering its wings, he felt that his palms were hot, and those annoying worries were temporarily thrown to Java, he turned his head slightly to look at Xie Minyun, and said with a little shyness: "It's okay, no one pays attention to us anyway." ”

"No, no. When there is a moon, it will be more romantic....." Xie Minyun said by biting his lip.

"The weather doesn't seem to be very good these days, even in the capital. Cheng Mo said regretfully.

"Stupid! I'll see the moon when I get on the plane!"

"It's like..... People get stupid when they're in love..... Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back to you stupidly and been criticized. Cheng Mo smiled bitterly.

Xie Minyun didn't speak, and after a while, when the person next to him was chatting hotly, he quickly kissed Cheng Mo on the cheek, and then whispered: "It's really happy to be able to marry Cheng Xiaomo." ”

Xie Minyun closed his eyes, leaned on Cheng Mo's shoulder and whispered again: "It's really happy." ”
