I was even more annoyed: "You think your driving skills are very good, don't you?" King Tianjiatu still couldn't hear that I was mocking him, and he looked complacent: "I am an expert in driving jets—the technology can be ranked among the top 100 in the world." I sneered: "I think it's the 1,000th at most—if you just pulled up the nose after flying nearly 50 meters, you could be ranked within the 100th." This time, his eyes widened, with a puzzled look on his face, Qi Bai also said: "What are you talking about? Why can't we understand at all?"

I was about to reprimand again, but Bai Su touched me behind me and said in a low voice, "Why don't you let the captain explain." I turned around and saw the captain looking at the door, so I waved to him, the captain came out, and I said: "Please tell the king what happened in the air just now." The captain saluted the king first, and then said a lot of words to compliment the king's driving skills, which was extremely disgusting.After talking for a full five minutes, I finally got to the point: "Lord Earth King has a body of ten thousand gold, never play this dangerous game again in the future!"

He spoke very euphemistically, but the earth king was still furious and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about!" After giving Tu Wang a loud shout, the captain shrank back into the cabin in fright, but the old man came out instead.Tu Wang was very angry at first, but when he saw the old man, he held back and called out very politely: "Uncle Tusheng." I am not surprised that the earth king called the old man like this.Because the old man once said that he is currently the highest seniority among the royal family, and it is only natural that the earth king calls him "uncle".

The old man──Uncle Tusheng agreed, with a very dissatisfied expression, and said in a deep voice, "Just now you acted like a child!" He can speak to the earth king in such a tone, which shows that he has a high status in the royal family. Earth King was startled and angry, and said loudly, "What's the matter with me? Why do you guys talk like farts!" Not only did he refuse to admit his mistake, but he also asked it to speak evil words, which was too much! As soon as I stretched out my hand, I grabbed his lapel honestly, and the earth king immediately screamed strangely. Following his cry, a group of soldiers rushed up the ladder.

Thinking about how wide the ladder could be, a dozen or so soldiers scrambled to come: "King Qin", and suddenly crowded into a group, causing the ladder to shake violently and almost topple over. The earth king continued to yell: "Wesley! I think you are a gentleman, why did you start fighting?" I was about to scold him, but Bai Su raised his voice: "Everyone, calm down, there is a misunderstanding. King Tianjiatu, did you show off your skills just now, causing two planes to almost collide?" The Tu Wang said angrily, "Who would do such nonsense!" As soon as Bai Sucai asked, I also knew that I had misunderstood the earth king, so I let go immediately, and responded, "Someone did such a silly thing just now, and they used the same plane."

The earth king's face suddenly became very ugly, and he lost his voice: "Higao! It must be him. He didn't want Wesley to help me, so he destroyed it!" As he spoke, he looked at Uncle Tusheng, as if he wanted to ask for his approval.Uncle Wang murmured, "It must be him—" Before he finished speaking, he stopped, and looked at the Tu Wang with very doubtful eyes, and the Tu Wang's expression was also full of doubts. I know what they are wondering--I proposed to the earth king in the air that he should arrive first before I could discuss it.After receiving the message, the king of earth must act immediately without delaying a second.Under such circumstances, even if Haigao wanted to destroy it, how did he know what the earth king was doing?

There is actually only one answer to this question: "Beside the king of earth, someone leaked the whereabouts of the king of earth!" Both Tuwang and Uncle Tusheng obviously thought of this, which is why they reacted so strongly.In the process of fighting for power, it is not surprising that arranging traitors is the most common method by the opponent's side. But Earth King knew that there was a traitor by his side, so he was naturally shocked and angry. This can be seen in his eyes. His eyes shone with a sinister and fierce light, which seemed to make one's heart skip a beat.

It is certain that he will immediately purge the cronies around him, and the innocent will inevitably be involved in the process-this is an inevitable phenomenon that the alternation of power and position cannot be carried out in a normal and civilized situation, but must be contested through conspiracy and trickery. King Tianjiatu was obviously an extremely smart person. Although he was extremely angry at this time, he still knew how to take advantage of this opportunity. He said to me: "Higao wants to seize the throne, so he uses such indecent means. If he succeeds, it will not be the blessing of the people of the country! I must pass the traditional test and continue to reign so that the people can have a good life Pass."

When he said this, he looked me straight in the eyes, and the implication was obvious: So I must help him pass the test. His attitude disgusts me.I said coldly: "How do you know, Your Excellency, that the people definitely want you to be the king of Tu, not Haigao?" This question is actually extremely common, because whether it is Tianjia or Haigao, in their place, no matter who becomes the earth king, it is decided by a small group of members of the royal family, so no matter how you answer this question, Both can be established, there is no doubt about it. But such an ordinary question, to King Tianjia, sounded like a fairy tale, and he might never have been asked like this before.

For a moment, his eyes widened, as if he wanted to swallow me.He replied quickly: "Of course it's me, how could it be anyone else?" Seeing him so confident, I find him disgusting and pitiful.At this time, many of us are still crowded on the ladder, which is really not a good place to discuss the problem, but I still can't help asking immediately: "How do you prove this?" The king of earth probably thought this question was even weirder, so he answered impatiently: "Is there any need to ask? My people cheer every time they see me, and this is the best proof!"

I sneered: "That is by no means a proof—when Bandit Jiang Yang was kidnapped and taken to the execution ground, some people cheered him!" The king finally couldn't hold back his anger: "How dare you insult me!" I kept calm: "One must insult oneself, and then others insult him—this is a famous saying in history." The king of earth straightened his chest. In such a situation, he could still try his best to suppress his anger. This is quite admirable. He took a long breath: "When did I insult myself?" Although he was determined to put on a face, the voice of these words did not sound very excited. His attitude made me feel that he was a person with whom I could discuss issues, so I also answered him seriously: "Your power and position were not obtained through civilized means, but you don't feel ashamed, but think that Of course, it means that you are out of touch with modern civilization-maybe you don’t feel it, but in fact you are constantly insulting yourself.” I usually seldom speak at length like this, and now I want to argue with the earth king, so naturally I have to speak completely. Earth King sneered: "What is the 'way of civilization'"? I answered very quickly: "It's as simple as it is—popular election." In an instant, the earth king looked at me with an extremely strange expression, as if looking at a monster, shook his head, waved his hands, and muttered a few words in his mouth.Although I didn't hear it clearly, from his disdainful expression, I could tell that he was saying that I was simply unreasonable, and it wasn't worth talking to me any more. I couldn't help sighing, and I deeply realized what it means to say "summer worms can't talk about ice!" For summer worms, ice is something beyond their cognition, and they don't even know that there is something between heaven and earth. It's called "ice". Just like the king of earth, human beings already know that the most legitimate and civilized method is for the leader of the country to be elected by the people. Ridiculous. If the people under his rule raised such words, of course it would be a heinous crime. If they don't kill their heads, at least they must be exiled to the army! Rulers like Tu Wang who are born or gained power through strange, varied, messy methods, or by virtue of long swords, machine guns, cannons, and mind-taking, have a different set of cognitions, and because It is related to their status, so their way of doing things will never allow the slightest voice of opposition within their sphere of influence. People like King Tu cannot communicate with him with the thoughts and language of civilized people. No matter how many titles he has in many universities and how modern he looks, he is still a barbarian in essence. So I also showed the same disdainful expression as him. Speaking of this, there is nothing to say between the two of them. Suddenly, the atmosphere became extremely stiff, and even the surrounding air seemed to be frozen. Under such circumstances, Qi Bai was the one who was most anxious. He nodded and bowed to me and Tu Wang, accompanied him carefully, and said with a dry smile, "Look, what are you doing crowded on the ladder? Wesley, I think you have heard about Tianjia Palace for a long time. Your name, you must be eager to visit!" As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes at me so hard that he was sweating profusely. His intention is obvious, he wants me to be patient and stop arguing with the earth king.Although I was extremely unwilling in my heart, I couldn't bear it when I saw this situation.He cursed secretly in his heart, this guy didn't know what he wanted from others, he seemed to be so humble that he didn't even dare to offend the earth king! And it seems that no matter how much he has done like a dog, the earth king still doesn't seem to agree to his request. Although I was puzzled, under such circumstances, of course I couldn't ask him what happened, and judging from his dead appearance, even if I asked, he might not be willing to tell. I had no choice but to follow his wishes first, and reluctantly replied: "Yes, I have heard the name of Tianjia Palace for a long time, so I want to see it." Upon hearing this, Qi Bai breathed a sigh of relief, but Tu Wang was greatly surprised—he thought that the conversation between me and him had become stagnant and could not be rounded up, but he did not expect that I would go to the palace, of course he was overjoyed . He invited me to ride with him, of course, to express his great respect for me, I nodded and accepted his invitation, and at the same time, my antipathy towards him was also reduced a bit—at least he is not a big man, just now He almost turned against me, and now he still treats me courteously. At the same time, I introduced Bai Su to him: "This is my wife——" Before I said Bai Su's name, Qi Bai's eyes were already wide open, even the eyeballs almost fell out. Seeing him like this, one can know how exquisite Bai Su's makeup is.I couldn't help laughing. Later Qi Bai said to me: "Although I was worried at the time, I was scared to death by you, thinking that there was a problem between you and Bai Su, and I got another Indian to be my wife." Neither Tu Wang nor the others understood why I was laughing, so I quickly explained.King Tianjiatu didn't express anything special at that time, until later, when he saw Bai Su's original face, he was so surprised that he couldn't speak—this is something for later, so I won't mention it. The Tuwang even invited Uncle Tusheng to the palace.Along the way, in Tu Wang's car, there were me and Bai Su, as well as Qi Zi who also got into the car under my insistence, and Tu Wang.And Tusheng Uncle Wang and others. Everyone was silent at the beginning, and I was thinking in my heart: To say that life is impermanent is really the extreme.I just randomly got on a plane and ended up in this situation!And what will happen in the future is completely unpredictable. Bai Su was the first to break the silence, she said: "His Excellency, Earth King, has decided to pass the test and never consider abdicating?" Tu Wang replied quite humorously: "Usually, the term 'abdicate' is always connected with 'Rang Xian'. I can't think of anyone who is better than me, so I have no intention of delaying my position." I'm used to his usual tone of explosive self-confidence, so I just snorted and didn't say anything. Bai Su said again: "Before the public knows your decision, you can actually reconsider it, because the so-called 'test'—" Before Bai Su finished speaking, Uncle Tusheng gave a wry smile: "As early as three months ago, it was announced to the world that the earth king will follow the tradition and accept the test. Everyone in the whole country knows it!" The king of earth smiled and said, "So there is no room for further consideration!" Bai Su smiled: "I doubt it, did you think about it in detail beforehand?" The King of Earth turned his head, looked at Bai Su for a while, and then said: "Of course I have considered it—and I have also prayed to the gods, asking the gods to give me courage." I was going to ask him if his god told him that only Wesley could help him pass the test.But I immediately thought that the gods they believed in had a sacred and inviolable position in their hearts, and this joke was not allowed, so I didn't say anything. Bai Su didn't say anything, just looked back at the earth king, and the earth king explained: "It is the idea of ​​the gods that believers on the throne should accept the test at a certain time." Regarding this point, I have already thought about it, because if it is a man-made rule, with the current power of King Tianjiatu, it can definitely be abolished and there is no need to implement it.It was precisely because it was the rule of the god that he dared not violate it—if he violated the idea of ​​the god, he would no longer have a foothold in this kingdom. No one in the car made a sound, and Tu Wang continued: "The rules say that you can have an assistant, so I want to ask Mr. Wei for help──If you don't ask for an assistant, it's fine. If you want to ask, of course, please the best one. I don't know if Mr. Wei is now Are you considering accepting it?" I didn't expect him to ask me to make a decision so soon, and just as I didn't know how to answer, Qi Bai rushed to say: "Accept, of course I accept..." Here, I must explain a detail.This detail was originally insignificant, but it turned out to change the development of the whole matter. Tuwang's car is a courtesy car with three rows of seats.When getting on the bus, in order to show respect to me and Bai Su, Tu Wang asked us to sit in the last row.And I pulled Qi Bai up and sat beside me. Tu Wang and Uncle Wang sat in the middle row, so when Tu Wang looked at Bai Su, he had to turn his head, and most of the time we talked, he turned his back to us. It was this detail that led to the development of things in the future. The King of Earth asked me if I would consider accepting his request, but before I could answer, Qi himself rushed to act on my behalf. Of course I can understand that Qi Zi is eagerly hoping that I can help the king of the earth to facilitate his request to the king of the earth, so he will do this. Just as I was about to glar at him, King Tianjiatu already had a reaction. With a cheer, he suddenly turned his head, leaned back, and stretched out his hands to me, wanting to shake hands with me. Seeing the joyful expression on his face, he obviously misunderstood that what Qi Bai said just now came from my mouth! I hurriedly wanted to explain, but at this moment, the hateful Qi Bai suddenly held my arm, as if I wanted to shake hands with the earth king. Before I had time to withdraw my hand, the earth king had already held my hand tightly with both hands, and shook it vigorously, while saying repeatedly: "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much! I will definitely do my best to repay!" In less than two seconds, by mistake, it turned out that I agreed to the request of the earth king! I wanted to clarify the matter, but Qi Bai uttered a voice full of pleading, my heart softened, it was too late, and I couldn't explain it at the first time.In such a situation, if you can't deny it immediately, and if you miss the opportunity, it will become meaningless to explain it again—it's like saying that it doesn't count, and you want to renege on your debt. At that moment, I took a deep breath, and slammed Qi Bai's chest hard to warn him of his misbehavior, but at the same time I had no choice but to admit the fact formed by misunderstanding. I lowered my face and said very seriously: "I don't care about repayment, but I need to know the whole situation──You can't hide anything from me, especially in terms of religion, and you can't hide anything from me just because I don't believe in your gods." Avoid!" Since I was somehow involved in this matter, of course I had no choice but to do it well, although I didn't want to. King Tianjiatu agreed, and I said: "There is one more thing that must be stated in advance: 'I will not change the position we discussed just now.'" Tu Wang said with a smile: "Don't think that I can't tolerate different opinions. As long as there is a common goal, different opinions can be put aside first." This kind of high-sounding statement is no stranger, and its subtext is: wait until the common goal is completed, and it is not too late to start the operation. I didn't say anything at the moment, I just hummed lightly, and the earth king was so happy that he sang, his singing voice was very good. Qi Bai hit me hard, although he didn't get hurt, but he couldn't make a sound for a while, he held back the pain, but kept kicking my calf. At this time, I still felt very useless in my heart, so I deliberately ignored him until the earth king sang for three or four minutes, and then I said: "Of course, there is one more important thing, I must bring it up now as a condition." The King of Earth was obviously in a good mood, waved his hands, and said loudly, "No matter what the conditions are, you can just agree." I said: "I agreed to your request, of course you should agree to Qi Bai's request." I thought that in such a situation, the earth king would say "yes" without thinking about it, but the earth king's reaction was completely unexpected. I saw him stand up abruptly, but the height of the car did not allow him to stand up straight. , and he moved very quickly, so the result was that his head hit the roof of the car heavily. For a moment, even the driving car was shaken, he was bounced back by the force of the impact, and fell back heavily on the seat, in a state of embarrassment. The situation was so unexpected that even I didn't know how to deal with it. I just felt that two hands were pressing on the back of my hand at the same time, one was Bai Su, she was obviously signaling to me to calm down; the other was Qi Bai; his hands were colder than ice, so cold that it was indescribable— ─I have to say that only those who come from the underworld can have such cold hands. When I press him, I can hardly help shivering. Qi Bai's body language was naturally saying: The earth king's reaction like this, of course, means that he will not accept this condition, Qi Bai's hope has come to nothing, that's why his hands and feet are cold. In an instant, there were so many questions in my mind that I couldn't add them.I first turned my head to look at Qi Bai, only to see that his face was pale, and he was about to cry, but if he had such an expression at the funeral of his parents, he could be called a dutiful son. Judging from his half-dead appearance, it can be seen that his request to the earth king is very important to him. Under such circumstances, King Tu actually refused to agree, so it can be seen that Qi Bai's request must be extraordinary, and it is not known how difficult it is to do, it is really suspicious. Qi Bai stared at the back of the earth king's head, it seems that he still has a glimmer of hope, hope that the earth king will agree to my conditions after consideration. But he was disappointed! After being frozen for a while, King Tu finally spoke—when he was motionless, the atmosphere in the carriage was extremely tense, and when he spoke, everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Tu Wang's voice was dry and he cleared his throat before he could speak, which proved that what he said was the result of intense ideological struggle, and it was definitely not blurted out. He said: "Although I desperately need your help, Mr. Wesley, I cannot agree to the condition you just mentioned." After he tried his best to keep calm and said those two sentences, he suddenly went crazy and shouted: "Stop!" That cry sounded extremely terrifying. It was said that when he cried, he felt heart-piercing pain, helplessness and anger, and no one would object. Following his yell, the car braked abruptly, not only making an extremely piercing sound, but also such a big car, it turned several times rapidly on the road! Before the car stopped, I couldn't help shouting: "What the hell does Qi Bai want you to do? Is it that difficult to agree?" I think that under such circumstances, if I ask a question, one of them will always give me the answer.Even if Qi Bai's request was extremely unhuman, and he was too embarrassed to say it, Tu Wang would say it to prove that he was not at fault. But what is unspeakable is that Qi Bai and Tu Wang didn't respond to my question at all. The car finally stopped, and there was an awkward silence in the car. I was both angry and confused. I was about to ask again, but the King of Earth had already issued an order to evict the passengers: "Please get off the car, there is nothing between us." Let's talk about it!" Things will develop like this, it is really something that would never have been expected a minute ago.Bai Su and I quickly exchanged glances, seeing Bai Su's expression, as if she wanted to say something, I immediately hinted that she didn't need to say anything. Because the King of Earth has asked us to get off the carriage, it was originally his begging for us, so why should we turn our heads and beg him to let us stay? And he pointed out the "three", which of course refers to me, Bai Su's Qi Bai.Bai Su understood, opened the car door, and she and I left the car immediately. Qi Bai still lingered in the carriage and refused to come out.He clasped the back of the front seat with both hands, and begged the earth king: "Don't drive me out of the car, I'll go and persuade Wesley to help you first, and then discuss my request." Qi Bai's begging was extremely grievous, but the Tu Wang's answer was unreasonable. The Tu Wang shouted like a dog: "Get out! Get out! I will never agree to your request, so there is no need to say more. So as not to give people the feeling that they have promised, and then backtrack, and be a ruthless villain!" Although I got out of the car, the conversation between Qi Bai and Tu Wang in the car can still be heard clearly.The last two words of the earth king were obviously aimed at me. He meant that I agreed to him first, and then kept raising conditions. Originally, I didn't agree to this matter at all, it was all Qi Bai's tricks - but of course it is even more difficult to explain this now.But no matter what, I can't bear the notoriety of being a bad guy! So I shouted towards the car: "Speak clearly! You said it yourself, and you can put forward any conditions—I don't know who is the villain who broke his promise!" As soon as I said my words, the door in the middle opened suddenly, and the earth king jumped down, pointed at me, and shouted: "Separate the matter between you and me, and the matter between him and me? Why do you have to talk about it?" together?" What I said is a lot of redundant words, but it's hard for him to speak very fluently under the extreme excitement. I sneered: "I promised to help you, just to help him! This is enough to understand!" The earth king's face was ashen, and he rushed forward a few steps, until he came in front of me, stretched his neck again, almost touching the tip of my nose, and I felt him panting rapidly. I stood still and did not flinch.The two remained in a stalemate for two minutes before he suddenly punched me in the chest. I noticed that his arms were retracted, ready to exert force, which means that it is easy for me to avoid his punch, but I know that it is necessary to accumulate powerful force for such a close-range punch. very difficult thing.This cannot be done unless one has extremely high attainments in oriental martial arts. I guess he is pampered and may not know martial arts, so even if he gets punched, it's not a big deal. And I was already ready to teach him to shoot in casually, so when I raised my breath, I breathed into my chest, making the muscles in my chest harden. Under such circumstances, when he punched me in the chest, the harder he used, the stronger the rebound force would be, which would cause pain to his fist. The fist shattered the bones. It was too late to say it, but it was too soon, I just raised my breath, and his punch has already hit it! I only heard a "bang", and in an instant, I only felt a sharp pain in my chest, and I couldn't stand still. I took three steps back before I stood still, and my hands still touched my chest naturally. , to relieve pain. Bai Su obviously didn't expect this kind of situation to happen, she reacted extremely quickly, and in a blink of an eye, she had already come to my side.
