In Northland, in a luxurious manor, two people were playing chess.
"Xia Xiaosu refused the marriage? Humph..."
"Mr. Cheng Guo, don't be angry."
However, the person who snorted was not angry. He immediately opened his lips and laughed loudly, "How dare a little bitch who has lost her family dare to be so stubborn? If she wants to hold on, just hold on."
"Mr. Cheng Guo, the students just received a briefing, saying that the seventh prince killed the emperor and is escaping in the wild."
The man paused and his expression softened: "This is not simple. The emperor is not a man without ability, and how did he escape?"
The aristocratic man frowned, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong he became: "The Fifth Highness is different from him. The forces behind the Fifth Highness helped. This also allowed Xia Ji to escape? How high is this son... really? No. , this is not a matter of whether he is tall or not, in addition to his realm, he must also have a lot of magic weapons, otherwise he will not be able to escape."
Duke Cheng Guo paced back and forth. He was still a little worried in his heart. What if someone like Xia Ji went crazy and rushed to his house
"Marquis Mi Ming, take a random portrait and send it to Xia Xiaosu, just say it's Yan'er and give her some face."
"Mr. Cheng is still as cautious as ever." Marquis Miaoming praised him, and then he stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Why did Mr. Cheng suddenly want to marry her this time? Her defeat has been determined, even if she comes to kneel If you ask for marriage, you should not accept it."
Duke Cheng Guo narrowed his eyes but said nothing.
Marquis Mingming understood.
Sometimes even without speaking, it is an answer.
Because the answer is indescribable, it is enough to explain many problems.
Marquis Minming whispered: "Dong Cheng, you and I have known each other for twenty years, right?"
"Yes."
Marquis Minming pointed at the earth in front of him and whispered: "I have started researching since I knew that everything I saw was rooted in the earth. However, I can't see the situation in the world, or even the situation of alien races. don't know.
It makes no sense, and there is no logic. It seems that a hand is secretly lighting and instigating them. They don't care about interests or anything. They just want to kill each other
What's the point?
I consider myself not stupid, but after ten years of research, I still can’t understand it at all. Can you give me some advice? "
Duke Cheng Guo laughed and looked at the chessboard.
Marquis Mingming: "Please give some advice to the students so that they know how to behave in the world."
Cheng Guogong's smile disappeared and he exhaled. Suddenly, he swept away all the black and white pieces on the chessboard in front of him.
There was a crash.
The chessboard, the chess pieces fell to the ground.
Marquis Mingming was shocked.
Duke Cheng Guo said in a deep voice: "Don't look at the chess game."
Marquis Mingming: "Then what are you looking at?"
At this time, outside the arch of Cheng Guogong's residence, a girl in rich clothes was walking past with her dog. She was walking the dog and teasing it. The dog was pointed and picked by her finger, making people stand up and look quite amused. Jumped twice comically.
Duke Cheng Guo pointed at the dog and whispered, "Look at that."
Marquis Mingming's eyes widened.
His Adam's apple rolled and he looked at Duke Cheng.
The two people looked at each other, looking a little deep.
Duke Cheng Guo nodded slightly to him, then suddenly laughed and said: "This chess game is not fun. Come on, come with me to see the new exotic flowers in the garden."
Marquis Mingming understood.
But I don’t understand either.
What Duke Cheng Guo means is that the world is just their plaything
What they want is to fight
Why
Are those five great families crazy
What's the point
Could it be that they really do whatever they want
"Why don't you leave?"
"Cheng Guogong, students can be a barking dog, a dog that dances happily when given a bone.
But even dogs know how to look after the house, and they should look after the house. If the house is invaded by outsiders, the dog should pounce on them and bite them to death!
But now that so many people have died, the world is in such chaos, and the dog's leash is still tied so tightly, then what is the use of the student as a dog alive? ! "
Cheng Guogong said: "It's useless!"
Marquis Minming licked his lips, gritted his teeth, and revealed a fierce light in his eyes that he could not hide.
Duke Chengguo suddenly stepped forward and slapped him, which immediately dispersed the anger and fierceness of Marquis Miaoming.
"Let's go."
"is teacher."
"Always remember, no one in this world can disobey them, they are destiny..." Cheng Guogong showed a look of recollection and sighed softly, "Twenty years ago, I understood this truth. I hope to wake you up today. You can understand it too."
…
…
The world.
Xia Ji stood on the cliff, with the magic halberd stuck at his side.
Heaven.
I don't know when, there was a storm, and the sky that was sunny just now suddenly turned gray.
It was obviously spring, but the huge mountain-like red clouds seemed to have cracked, and the cracks were filled with purple textures, sometimes dark and sometimes bright, which were thunder and lightning.
It seemed like God was warning him not to take that step.
That's not a step you should take.
So, Xia Ji inserted the magic halberd a little higher.
This can be used as a lightning rod.
When lightning strikes down, it will hit the big dark halberd first, not him.
The black halberd is eight feet long, which is very tall and long. As a lightning rod, it should be very effective.
He thought carefully about it. When he was in the imperial capital, because he was not sure about the power and influence of this world, in addition to asking others, he also paid special attention to books on this aspect. If there were no records in the books, he would read them. There were many "visions" and the like, but none of them mentioned "overcoming the tribulation".
Moreover, Fox King Huixin has lived for five hundred years, and all she knows is the Dharma.
This shows that even if there are people who have surpassed the Dharma realm in this world, they will be very rare.
He doesn't like waves.
But on the way here, he had already thought about it. The opportunity was fleeting. No matter what, he must break through this realm today.
Looking at the rolling thunder and lightning, Xia Ji began to think, should he call the hawk demon over and carry him to the stratosphere above the clouds
But that’s not right either…
As a time traveler, some weird knowledge flashed through Xia Ji's mind, but he didn't think that being struck by lightning was "God is giving you a reward, and now it's just a formality", nor did the feeling of being struck by lightning. That kind of "you just get through it, you gain strength."
This is not the world of immortals where surviving tribulations is commonplace.
In this world, I have never heard of the term "overcoming thunder tribulation".
Moreover, this cloud...
Full of malice.
The expression is very clear.
If you dare to take that step, you will die today.
At this time, Xia Ji was not reckless.
He thought about it and felt that the lightning rod method was not very reliable.
So, he put away the "lightning rod" and called the hawk demon.
The general of the Eagle Tribe who had brought him here had never been far away from him, and when he heard his call, he fell down.
Xia Ji sat directly on the back of the golden eagle, pointed to the sky, "Get up."
The golden eagle raised its head and looked at the sky at this time, and fell into silence.
"This is also your opportunity," Xia Ji patted it on the shoulder, "No matter who you are, you must have the courage to take the first step."
The big eagle took a sip of the poisonous chicken soup, then mustered up its courage and flapped its wings to fly.
Under the vast iron-gray sky, one person and one eagle were terrifyingly small.
