Chapter 321: The Speaker Behind the Scenes
Today's era of kings is in the period of alternating power when the old emperor dies and the new emperor ascends the throne.
The old emperor was overweight, but he still loved big fish and meat, and he was always drunk and drunk, and he ate too much at night, and died without breathing. Well, to use the technical medical vocabulary of the origin earth, it is called myocardial infarction.
The new emperor is young and promising, in addition to taking care of the government, he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he looks like he has good facial features and a decent body, not like he will die suddenly at any time, of course, it is difficult to say whether he will follow the path of his Lao Tzu in 20 years.
The new emperor is as difficult as a slender man to go to court every day, that is called an unhappy, he sees a group of courtiers in his eyes, but what he thinks about is where the music he composed yesterday or the poem he composed needs to be revised. Of course, in addition to these, there are also his graceful concubines......
Zhong Kui saw this situation in his eyes and was worried in his heart. The king of a country is too obsessed with fun, and he does not look like he can maintain the prosperity and peace of this world. In desperation, he can only assist as much as possible, and the way to assist is not to swagger into the Golden Palace, and to advise the emperor in full view of everyone, the most effective way is to educate in the land of dreams.
How could the new emperor not know Zhong Kui's name? At the beginning, when I saw this strong man with a purple face and long hair and a big red official robe, I thought that I had hit a ghost, and invited a group of useless Taoist priests to "exorcise ghosts", and I didn't dare to sleep for three consecutive nights.
He doesn't sleep, Zhong Kui is not in a hurry, he is a good boy, the old man, the demigod consumes the god body with you, it depends on whether you can afford it!
Sure enough, by the fourth night, the new emperor couldn't stay up and fell asleep.
So Zhong Kui hurriedly grabbed him, and stated his mission of being yin and yang day by day, and found that the new emperor heard the end and fell asleep again in his dream......
This is obviously not the material for being a monarch, but he is also the Ninety-Five Supreme of the Mandate of Heaven, and he can't change it, Zhong Kui was helpless, and moved out his Lao Tzu as a teaching material, detailing how the fat emperor obeyed his words in the past, so Chang'an City can be so prosperous.
At this moment, the new emperor was full of interest, and people were more energetic. What makes him so excited is not that he was inspired by the first emperor to work hard to govern the country and the people, but that he found a shortcut to govern the country, knowing that he no longer has to worry about the government, anyway, when he dreams, someone will tell him how to do the work during the day, and when he is early, he can go to his own ......
This person cannot be entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and must not be used to fight against mysterious forces, Zhong Kui knows it, and he remembers the Great Wall guards even more in his heart. The new emperor believes in himself so much, and he is obedient to himself, although a fool can understand what he is so obedient for, Zhong Kui can only take advantage of the situation, and take this opportunity to complete the big things that have been pressing on his heart.
The Great Wall Guards have indeed reached the time to re-emerge, but at this time, Su Lie and Dunshan met, Zhong Kui thought that this cliff was arranged by God, otherwise how could there be such a perfect coincidence?
After Dunshan sent Su Lie away, he hurriedly rushed to the Buddha Temple, which was in line with Zhong Kui's intentions, so naturally he didn't have to wait until the time to appear, and he also came to the time gate in advance.
"Dunshan, what do you think of Su Lieqi?" Zhong Kui didn't say what he had decided in his heart, and asked Dunshan first.
Dunshan was shocked, thinking that everyone who is a leader has this problem, and likes to inquire about the opinions of another subordinate from one subordinate? If he met Su Lie, he would probably ask the same thing, right? Of course, what Dunshan pondered was not Zhong Kui's way of acting, but how Su Lie would evaluate himself......
"Is this," Dunshan didn't dare to think about it for too long, and replied after hesitating for a moment: "Su Lie is the supreme commander of the dignified guard army, and I am a fateful broken mecha man, how can I speak lightly with thin lips and criticize the mighty general?" ”
Zhong Kui was also stunned, thinking that this kid still has a sense of justice. But then it was extremely uncomfortable, obviously almost as tall as Dunshan, but it seemed to be suddenly shorter. This guy is scolding himself like this, is he saying that his way of asking questions belongs to the villain behavior of talking about others behind his back?
"Huh~" Zhong Kui waved his hand and said: "From ancient times to the present, the selection of generals has to investigate their background and find out their personality to determine whether this person is worthy of a heavy position and a heavy responsibility. The battle that the Great Wall Guards are about to face is more challenging than before, that is, they have to go through the time gate and go back to the past to fight side by side with the new new humans, so how can the leader of this army, this officer, not check? Dunshan, you don't want to mistake the official's intentions! ”
"Oh, I see." Dunshan understands, the street woman talking about others is boring and idle, and the prefectural judge is talking about the country and the people, this difference is really big!
Seeing Zhong Kui's pair of leopard eyes staring at him, looking like he would not give up until he reached his goal, Dunshan hurriedly bowed his waist and replied: "Dunshan thinks that General Su is upright and intolerant, and is enough to undertake any great responsibility bestowed by God. If he led the army back to the past from the Time Gate, he would surely be able to repel the White Ape Clan and save the Great Wall from dire straits. ”
"Hmm~" Zhong Kui scratched his big black beard like a steel needle again. Dunshan's evaluation of Su Lie was consistent with his own opinion over the years, so he was completely relieved, believing that he had found the best person to defend the Great Wall after all.
He said to Dunshan: "The time passage era junction is still lingering in place, and it is not yet known whether to move forward or backward, so the primeval era you are in is still in a state of stasis, and as long as this state is not lifted, the White Ape Clan will not pose a threat to the Great Wall." However, as soon as time begins to flow, the war will only be pushed forward by the great wheel of history, and there will be no return to victory or defeat. ”
Dunshan listened anxiously and hurriedly asked, "So how much time do we have left?" ”
Zhong Kui pinched his fingers with his beardless hand and replied, "The energy used by the gods to control the time passage is getting weaker and weaker, and according to the official's estimate, it will probably last for a few days." ”
"Huh? This...... How many days are left? Dunshan was shocked and at a loss.
Zhong Kui glared at him and said, "The era of kings has passed for so many years, which means that the primeval era has stagnated for so many years. With such a large energy consumption, Nuwa Niangniang can't do it, what are you not satisfied with? If this matter can't be done again, we can only blame you and me for doing things unfavorably, how can we complain about heaven and people? ”
"Yes, my lord's words are very reasonable, Dunshan has been taught!" Dunshan was ashamed and hurriedly saluted.
Zhong Kui also knew that time was pressing, and he didn't have time to worry about him so much, and said: "Your next task is very clear, which is to bring the mighty Great Wall Guards into the Time Gate, and return from the age of kings to the primeval era without them noticing. ”
"What? Unaware? Why is that? Dunshan was confused.
