Devil’s Examination

Chapter 510: The phantom father

Views:

This is TW's Eight Immortals Coast, one of the most famous amusement parks in TW.

When Zhu Sunling came here for the first time, her mother had just conceived her younger brother.

In Zhu Sunling's memory, the two sisters are closer to their mother, while Zhu Sunling is closer to their father. If you want to talk about the reason, it may be because Zhu Sunling is too smart. She learned to recognize characters faster than her two elder sisters, and she could understand both traditional and simplified characters without any obstacles. This also means that she does not need to read those children's enlightenment books that require pinyin, but can understand more books.

Therefore, she read all the books in her father's study without missing a single one. And what she found very interesting was that in her father's study room, there were actually more books in simplified characters than in traditional characters, those books in simplified characters. What she finds interesting is that, for the same history book, the contents of the simplified and traditional versions are very different.

Compared with her sister who can't read all simplified characters, Zhu Sunling and her father have more common topics. She knew that her father's ancestors were from other provinces, and her father had been saving money for many years in the hope that he could go to the mainland to live with his uncle. In contrast, my mother is from the province, and she rarely reads the books in simplified characters that my father bought specially.

At this time, Zhu Sunling was with his father, while his mother and two older sisters were playing elsewhere. After all, the mother is pregnant, and the father does not want to play some very stimulating projects. However, Zhu Sunling is not refusing to come to any exciting project, so she decided to divide into two groups to play the project she likes, and reunite at the designated place at 3 pm.

After the father and daughter finished a project, they both felt tired. At this time, the two were sitting very close to the sea.

Zhu Sunling noticed that her father would always look to the northwest. She knew that the direction to the northwest was the mainland of Country Z.

At that time, Zhu Sunling didn't know that her family ancestors had established a unified dynasty in that place. There is the hometown of the Zhu family. Although my father grew up in TW, their grandparents have always told them that one day, they will return to their homeland. As long as he returns there, the members of the Zhu family will be regarded as Ye Luo returning to his roots. This is the dream of my father's life, and this dream was a fantasy when he was young, but now... it is not so unrealizable.

"Sunling." Father stroked Zhu Sunling's hair and said, "I plan to let our family travel to the mainland next. The National Day is coming soon, and I want to take you to the capital to raise the national flag."

"Well, I heard that the first time you went...to see the national flag raising, Dad?" Zhu Sunling looked at her father with wide eyes curiously: "I bought a lot of books there and came back."

"Yes. Remember, Sun Ling, always and forever... We all belong to country Z. Your blood originates from country Z, from the land on the other side of this sea, which is the hometown of our Zhu family , we will return there one day.”

Zhu Sunling can understand his father's mood. Back then, her great-grandfather participated in anti-R activities when country R occupied TW, and died in the end.

"At the end of the last century, the person who deported us to TW signed a treaty with country R that humiliated the country. After that, TW was occupied by country R for more than half a century. However, everyone else can forget that only our surname Zhu, This must not be forgotten!"

At that time, Zhu Sunling didn't understand why her father said "the surname Zhu should not be forgotten". However, now she fully understands what her father said.

Later, she heard from her uncle that when her grandfather passed away, she held his uncle's and father's hands and told them that in the future, they must return to their roots, return to their homeland, and return to the Ming Tombs built by Emperor Yongle to worship their ancestors. At the same time, they were repeatedly told that no matter what happened, if they dared to do TD, they would definitely be expelled from the Zhu family, even if their ashes were not buried with the Zhu family. It wasn't until my uncle and father promised my grandfather that they would bring my grandfather's ashes back to the capital for burial, that my grandfather was willing to close his eyes and swallow his last breath. And my father was raised by such a grandfather.

My uncle said that he accompanied his father to the Ming Tombs. Since 1644, members of the Zhu family can finally go to the Ming Tombs again to pay homage to Lord Hongwu and Lord Yongle. At that time, they took their grandfather's urn and stepped into the Ming Tombs in person. My uncle said that my father at that time cried like a child. At that time, countless tourists watched an adult man kneel and kowtow in front of the Ming Tombs, and they all felt incredible. Grandfather could have gone there if he had lived longer.

Zhu Sunling will never forget the way her father looked at the coast at that time. For my father, it was not so easy to go to settle in his native land on the other side of the sea. However, no matter what, the sea in front of him could not stop him.

"Father..." Zhu Sunling wanted to say more to her father, but she heard him say to her: "Sunling, there are actually many things in this world that are more important than being alive. Such as family, nation, and country. During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, the prosperity of our Chinese nation surpassed any other country. Even if the Ming Dynasty perishes, this is still something that makes me extremely proud. At that time, our naval fleet galloped across the ocean and attracted the attention of the whole world. I believe that sooner or later One day, our nation can return to the peak of the world! Sun Ling, this is much more important than eternal life."

Zhu Sunling didn't understand what his father meant.

"Wake up quickly! Sun Ling! This is not the place for you!"

Afterwards, her father pushed her hard, and Zhu Sunling came to her senses!

Just now, her memory was still on the Eight Immortals Coast with her father, but now, her body is hanging in the air! There was a small room around her, and she found that a dark hand was hanging from the ceiling, clutching her celestial spirit cover tightly!

Hallucination

She immediately thought that it was mentioned in the exam paper that there are demons that can produce hallucinations! How long the hallucination lasts depends on the willpower of the candidate. And if she woke up a little later, she might have gone to see Hades by now!

Zhu Sunling didn't know how long it had passed, she quickly took out the test paper and looked at it, and now... the test has begun! So she immediately filled in the appearance of the devil who could give candidates hallucinations on the test paper!

Then, the devil's hand that grabbed her head disappeared, and she fell to the ground!

"It was my father who saved me..." In Zhu Sunling's memory, her father never told her that the Zhu family was a descendant of Daming in the Eight Immortals Coast.

Father... Did he save himself somewhere

For his father, what he was always proud of was not the gains and losses of the Ming royal family. For his father, what he valued was that Emperor Hongwu reincorporated the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun into the territory of the Han nationality by the Ming Dynasty, and that Zheng He's fleet sailed far away to shock the world. In front of the Zheng He fleet that was sailing to the West at that time, the white people today had to prostrate.

Homeland, motherland... One day, for Zhu Sunling, she will set foot on the land of the mainland and once again touch the hometown where the royal family of the Ming Dynasty lived. She wants to bury the ashes of her parents, sister and brother on the land of her hometown!

She has always felt that the meaning given to death by human beings is meaningless, and human death is just a pile of proteins waiting to be decomposed. However, she suddenly felt that maybe she didn't really think so.

"Father... I am not ashamed of the blood of the royal family surnamed Zhu! I will definitely protect the history of the motherland and never let the Haider family and the Qinye family succeed!"

At this time, Gao Ying, who had just entered the examinee scene, looked around and looked at the dark maze in front of him.

The first thing he did was to sense the candidates around him. With this induction, I found that the number was much more than I thought. Moreover, several of them are approaching him!

Gao Ying first glanced through the examination paper in front of him as quickly as possible.

"Single-choice questions... multiple-choice questions... fill-in-the-blank questions... and the big question at the end..."

The final big question is to draw a route map from the entrance to the exit of the maze!

"It seems that we have to join Zhu Sunling as soon as possible."

Although Gao Ying could sense that an examinee was approaching his position, he didn't know who it was. But now the absolute order is invalid if it does not touch the opponent's body. This point is quite troublesome. And as soon as you meet a stranger, a shootout is likely to break out. Fortunately, there is a saying, physical immunity is indeed an Abyss level reward.

"let's go!"
