Fighter of the Destiny

Zhou Tong put down the dossier transcript, looked at the subordinate and said, Confirmed?

The subordinate took out a portrait from his arms and said, It's absolutely true.

Zhou Tong didn't take it, he just looked at it twice without saying anything.

The subordinate continued: According to the records in the documents, Chen Changsheng has never mentioned this person in the year he came to Kyoto.

Zhou Tong looked at the skylight outside the window and was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: Tell me, is Prince Zhaoming dead, or was he secretly taken away by those evil-minded guys from the royal family?

The subordinate didn't know how to answer. He was very nervous and said in a hoarse voice: What do you mean?

Zhou Tong shook his head and said, I didn't mean anything, I just thought of it subconsciously.

The subordinate didn't dare to answer the phone.

Don't worry about some things that cannot be investigated for the time being. Zhou Tong looked away from the window and said: Why is Liang Xiaoxiao willing to make a deal with a devil like Heipao, and would rather commit suicide than try to deal with Su Li and his daughter? Because he wants to Revenge. Why did Su Li join the Changsheng Sect and kill so many people and then go to Xunyang City to go on a killing spree, thereby greatly damaging the strength of the Liang family? Because the southerners wanted to take advantage of me to invade the north during the Great Zhou Dynasty. His wife threatened him and made him crazy. Why was the Great Zhou Dynasty in civil strife? Because of the murder at the National Education Academy, it is said that everything has its origin. In the final analysis, everything is the issue of the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty. As long as we can understand this clearly, Our direction will not be wrong.”

The subordinate said: King Chenliu went to the religious office three times in five days.

Don't forget that although the empress does not have a biological son, the late emperor still has many sons and grandsons. Even if the empress really abdicates in the future and returns the throne to the Chen royal family, what chance will King Chen Liu have at such a young age? Of course I will be anxious.”

Your Excellency, you mean that King Chenliu wants to win the support of the state religion?

Archbishop Melisa is about to return to the sea of ​​​​stars. If he doesn't show up more at this time to win the favor of the priests in the palace, how can he survive in Kyoto until now, and his life is getting better and better?

…

…

Although you don't care about the throne, everyone except you does, so I think that in the end, or the root of all problems, is the throne, and Dean Shang's thoughts will eventually fall on that on the chair.

After hearing what Tang Sanliu said, the first thing Chen Changsheng noticed before thinking about it was the title.

Who is Dean Shang...?

Your teacher, Shang Xingzhou.

Chen Changsheng was silent for a long time.

This is the first time he has heard this name, and he has lived with the owner of this name for fifteen years.

In recent times, he had many opportunities to know this name, but he did not ask, whether it was the Bishop of Merissa or the Pope, because he did not want to know this name, and did not want to face some problems that he did not want to face because of knowing this name. question, and at the same time, he didn't want others to know that he didn't know the name, because it made him a little sad.

Tang Sanliu vaguely guessed his mood at this time, and for some reason he felt disgusted with his teacher, and asked: Have you ever thought about why he wanted to accept you as his disciple?

Chen Changsheng was a little confused and asked: Master picked me by the stream, what other reason could there be?

Tang Sanliu stared into his eyes and said, Your surname is Chen.

Then? Chen Changsheng still didn't react.

Tang Sanshiliu said: Have you never thought... that you might be from the royal family?

Chen Changsheng was startled, shook his head and said, No, I floated down from the mountain stream inside the Cloud Tomb. My biological parents may be the descendants of the criminals back then.

Tang Thirty-Six mocked and said, You were only a few years old at that time and you knew nothing.

Chen Changsheng said: This is what senior brother said. Senior brother will never lie to others, let alone me.

He said this with certainty, without any hesitation in his clean eyes.

Tang Sanliu wanted to say something more, but looked into his eyes, feeling a little unbearable, and then said, How are you going to go next?

Arriving in Kyoto from Xining, Chen Changsheng originally thought that his path was clear, which was to find the secret to change his destiny against heaven, so as to free himself from the shadow of death. But now, he suddenly found that he had to face many things before that. Fork in the road.

I have no idea.

You need help.

who can help me?

I.

Okay, then help me.

It was a very simple conversation and a very heart-warming trust, because both of them were teenagers.

Either he is calm and mature, or he is arrogant and frivolous, he is still a teenager.

Teenagers are sometimes too passionate and naive to be annoying, but compared with those elders who have weathered many hardships, their lives are much simpler, and their relationship with each other will also be much simpler.

Tang Sanshiliu said: No problem, let us first sort out the causes and consequences of this matter.

Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, Please do something for me first.

Tang Sanshiliu said without hesitation, Tell me, what's the matter?

Chen Changsheng said to him, Can you take a shower and brush your teeth first?

…

…

What's the saying? I haven't even brushed my teeth... In short, Tang Sanliu was a little annoyed and was kicked out of the library by Chen Changsheng. He used two large buckets of hot water and washed himself from head to toe, making sure that there was no more The dirt brought out from the Tianshu Mausoleum changed into clean clothes and came to the lakeside with Xuanyuan Po's freshly steamed buns.

Chen Changsheng put Mr. Xunmei's notes on the bookshelf, logged in, and then went to wash Mr. Xunmei's bedding and Tang Sanliu's fur. It took him half an hour to wash them clean, and then hung them under the big banyan tree. It's like two swings.

The rain in the early morning had long since stopped. The early summer sunshine shone on the lake, but it didn't evaporate much water vapor, and there was no feeling of sweltering heat.

Tian Haiya'er's shouting and cursing could no longer be heard, and the National Education Academy was quiet and beautiful.

Standing by the lake, looking at the scenery on the other side, Tang Sanliu said: My grandfather said that His Majesty the Pope is a good old man, so don't worry too much.

While talking, he carefully tore the bun into pieces.

The Pope is Chen Changsheng's uncle. Logically speaking, he should be happy to accept this statement. However, he followed Su Li south from the Demonic Snowfield and saw too many assassinations and conspiracies along the way. It was really difficult for him to convince himself to believe in the Pope. His Majesty Zong is really a good man.

Julo and Stargazer should have been invited by His Majesty the Pope.

Chen Changsheng looked at the blue sky and white clouds reflected in the lake, wanting to encounter the perfect and unreal sky in Qingye's world. He shook his head and said, How can a good old man become His Majesty the Pope?

“This view of the world may seem mature, but it’s actually vulgar.”

Tang Thirty-Six threw the broken buns into the lake and said: His Majesty the Pope has never been known for his wisdom. He was able to become the leader of the state religion because he had a really close relationship with the Holy Queen. , Of course, the most important thing is because his old man’s level of strength is truly unfathomable, and even your teacher, Dean Shang, was ultimately defeated by him.

Chen Changsheng said: But...he wants to kill Su Li.

It's back again. Tang Sanliu looked at him and said mockingly: To tell you what you don't like to hear, Su Li has killed so many people in his life, and countless people want him dead. Are those people all bad people? Facts In their eyes, you are the real bad guy who protected Su Li all the way back south.

Chen Changsheng thought to himself, is this really the case?

We still need to find out first what Dean Shang wants you to do when he asks you to come to Beijing.

Tang Sanshiliu said: You must know that my grandfather said that there are only four and a half people in this world that he is truly afraid of, and your teacher is among them.

Chen Changsheng was very curious and asked, Who are the others?

Tang Thirty-Six said: Empress, Old Man Tianji, and the black robe.

Chen Changsheng counted the most powerful figures on the continent and asked in confusion: What about the Demon Lord?

Tang Thirty-Six said: The Demon Lord is not a human being.

Who is the other half...?

Black robe. Since he serves the demon clan, of course he can no longer be considered a human being.

Chen Changsheng caught the key point in this sentence and asked: Mr. Tang knows the identity of Hei Pao?

Tang Sanliu did not answer this sentence.

As time goes by, so does the sun, the blue sky gradually turns red, and the sky is filled with twilight.

In the sky behind the big banyan tree, you can already see a hint of night approaching.

They stood by the lake, whispering about things that they were not interested in at all.

Back in the Li Ziyuan Inn, Chen Changsheng and Tang Sanliu met for the first time in a real sense. At that time, they all subconsciously wanted to act more mature, and wanted to learn to chat and socialize like adults, but they seemed so clumsy, childish and cute.

Now that they have finally come into contact with these, they suddenly find that they no longer want to mature.

Because maturity often means decay, complexity and exhaustion.

Dozens of koi carps swung their tails in the lake. They looked weak because they were full of steamed buns. One of the fattest koi carps slowly sank into the mud at the bottom of the pond.

The atmosphere at the lakeside was a bit heavy.

The world is inherently big, and people's hearts are inherently complicated. When it is dark, it is better than the night, and when it is boring, it is better than the Tiandaoyuan. Especially the old people who rule this world, the smell exuding from their bodies is full of dust. Tang San Sixteen looked at him and said: But those don't really matter, because we are not that kind of people.

Chen Changsheng looked at the reflection in the lake and his own face, feeling a little uneasy and said, Have you ever thought... that we might become the kind of people we hate most in the future?

Tang Sanshiliu sneered and said, That's everyone's own problem. Do you have the nerve to blame the world after turning into a piece of shit?

He continued: You have to understand that who we want to be is what our world will be.

Chen Changsheng felt that these two sentences were very reasonable.

Before leaving Xunyang City, Su Li said something to him. Only then did he finally fully understand. He looked up at Tang Sanliu and said, Thank you.

According to Tang Sanliu's temperament, he should have said You're welcome very calmly at this time, but for some reason, he didn't say it.

There was a cool evening breeze, and the golden waves on the lake were cut into countless pieces.

He seemed to be back in Xunyang City. The long street in the heavy rain was full of space cracks, and the edges of the cracks were dazzling light.

An iron sword lies before the wind and rain, unable to shake it.

I want to be like Wang Po.

I want to live like him, he said.
