After a mixture of true feelings and false intentions, Xia Yancheng and Zheng Yuan drank a little bit of the rare red wine that is said to have been handed down in the eighteenth century, he should not have been drunk at this age, but for him, red wine is no different from brown sugar water, it is impossible for his soul to be drunk, if the "Heavenly Dao" can be drunk, wouldn't the drunken universe be ruined into slag long ago?

"By the way, I've always been curious." Zheng Yuan saluted Xia Yancheng with another glass of wine, and asked like a family chatter, "You are the son of Xia Yi and Ning Xue, of course you should stand on Erike's side, and you shouldn't be with us when it comes to intimacy." Why did you choose to ally with us? Is it for profit or simply for help? Do you really, never worry that we're bad guys? ”

"There is no absolute difference between right and wrong in the world, good and bad, it is just a matter of looking at the problem from different positions and angles." Xia Yancheng smiled meaningfully, "Who stipulates that I must help whom?" Don't take it for granted, nothing is taken for granted. ”

"But for the same help, why don't you go to Eliko? You should know she's also in this universe, right? Lebi asked.

Xia Yancheng smiled: "I don't want to mention her, Erike herself is not necessarily cleaner than you, I still know her black history, and you should know it too." Besides, I'm not on the same level as Eliko, she's an elder, she can dominate everything about me, and I can't resist her. I don't want to look at people's faces, I just want to really live for myself once and no longer be at anyone's mercy. I believe in fate, but I don't accept it. You are right, I should have my own plans, and I should also use my talent to be the strongest king, the universe is my chessboard, if I can't even choose to hold black and white, then the whole chess game will simply blow up. ”

"Good! The afterlife is terrifying! This enlightenment, this courage, is worthy of the person I am optimistic about! Valkyrie raised her glass haughtily, "Come!" I toast you! From now on, my sword will be your sword! ”

"Thank you, in front of the Valkyries, I don't dare to be." Xia Yancheng toasted and said frankly, "I don't treat you as bad people, because everything I have heard about you is just a demonized image in the mouth of the elders. The so-called hearing is false, and those who blindly follow the trend and scold you without personally investigating are stupid people, I just want to meet you in person to see if there is a big difference between rumors and reality. After all, it is my habit to question, even if it is an established fact and truth, I will examine it objectively, rather than listening to and blindly following others, even what my parents say. You know, what parent doesn't want to establish a great image in front of their children? If you question everything, you will not be led by others to the rhythm, sway your thoughts, and then successfully brainwash. ”

"Yes, if you don't meet in person, who knows what kind of person the other party is, including us, we are the same, I thought you were Xia Yi's son, and we didn't dare to get close. I can't imagine that at such a young age, you can have such profound insights and objectively examine everything, which is worthy of being a 'son of heaven'. Lebi was also deeply pleased, "It's a pity, even if you don't stand in line, some people will force you to team, if you don't stand in line, I'm afraid you'll be treated as a traitor, right?" ”

"Some people are like this, those who follow them are loyal ministers, and if you don't want to go with them, it's a big rebellion, I have my own opinions, can't I? Isn't this moral kidnapping? Xia Yancheng very frankly disclosed some realities, these voices were pressed in the bottom of his heart, and he naturally did not vomit in the face of these people, "It is precisely because everyone likes to form gangs, collude, and unconditionally believe in acquaintances, it is difficult to make objective judgments, as everyone knows, the easiest to deceive themselves is often acquaintances, and the current consciousness believes in the so-called 'own people' side of the words, regardless of the merits of helping 'their own people', thinking that 'their own people' are 'perfect people', we just give up thinking, blindly being brainwashed with rhythm, Are you confused? What's the difference between this and those avid fans who chase stars? When you think that a person is "absolutely right", your IQ is no different from that of a bed bug. ”

"That's right, the highest universe is a bunch of guys who always claim to be the most correct and brainwash people with rhythm all day long. We don't want much, but they won't give us even the most basic freedom. Zheng Yuan pretended to sigh helplessly.

"Those who only think about problems from the standpoint of those close to them are just a bunch of fools, why can a criminal war that has devastated lives be responded to by the whole country, because they have been deceived by the people they trust the most, and this kind of ignorance of the facts and blindly feel that 'the person I believe in will not be wrong' The concept is unacceptable." Xia Yancheng still spoke along with them, but he was also following his heart, "The authorities are confused, they are hindered by the first impression and subjective one-sided cognition, they lose their rationality, and to put it bluntly, they are led to rhythm!" ”

"What do you think, what do we do?" Lebby looked at him with wide eyes in curiosity.

Xia Yancheng smiled: "What about you...... It remains to be seen, but at least you're not hypocritical, and not as disgusting to me as those who boast about how righteous they are. I think at least the three of you are the ones who can communicate with me calmly. ”

"I think so too, compared to Arico, you're someone who can communicate with us calmly." Zheng Yuan sighed, "It's just, how do you know that we won't lie to you?" ”

"Hah...... Who hasn't lied? Only a fool does not lie. Xia Yancheng laughed while eating, "Everyone will try their best to beautify themselves in the face of mistakes, and the elders are even more so, they will do anything wrong when they have power." Heroes are mere tools in the face of authority, and they lie because the world cannot tolerate telling the truth or making the slightest mistake. Whether people trust each other or not depends not on how true or false what you say, but whether they really solve each other's problems. It doesn't matter if you lie to me all the time, I only care about the results you actually give me, not the boring process. ”

"Are you really only fourteen?" Lebi almost couldn't believe it, Xia Yancheng had been saying things that were not like what he would say at his age, these profound insights were like philosophers who saw through the red dust, and it was a great truth to open and close his mouth.

"Is there still a fake? Whether it's me Xia Yancheng or this skin called 'Mikoto Misaka', it's not even more than fifteen years old. Xia Yancheng smiled, "Didn't you hold me up to the sky?" If I can't say these things, you should be surprised, right? ”

Although Xia Yancheng is determined to fight for himself, he keeps helping Zheng Yuan and them "whitewash", others will feel fake, it's just the first time they meet, even they don't dare to "beautify" themselves so much, after all, there are some things that everyone feels unseemly.

"Don't talk to us anymore, no matter how fair these words are, those guys who are in charge of life and death can't listen to them, I don't expect you to ask your father for a gold medal for us to avoid death." The more Zheng Yuan listened to it, the more bitter and bitter he became, "Besides, we have indeed committed an unforgivable violation of the Heavenly Rules, we are the ones who cross without permission, deviate from the norm, and go all the way to the black." ”

"What about me?" Xia Yancheng couldn't help but sneer, "I also crossed without permission, and I also violated the rules of heaven." I can be forgiven because I am Xia Yi's son, and no one dares to do anything to me. For the same crime, why can I be forgiven if I am the second generation of officials, and you must be severely punished? I don't agree with this so-called 'unpardonable sin'! No one is perfect, you, me, my parents, Yu Nian, Erike, everyone is the same, this kind of good and evil is just a one-sided statement formed by different positions, in the eyes of you and Sister Le, Erike is a tyrannical and favoritist demon king, isn't it? Since everyone is not perfect, why should some people put on a face that is more holy than a saint, and use the power in their hands to legitimize 'evil' and turn mass murder into 'just sanction'? I crossed, I have a choice, but you don't want to die, is this fair? ”

"Thank you for understanding our difficulties. Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps, as the son of the Xia family, you have not been assimilated by that group of jackals, my sister is happy for you in her heart, and the freedom of thought is what you need the most. Le Biyi was happy, and opened a bottle of "NEX brand herbal tea" worth 3,000 US dollars that only local tyrants could afford to drink, and filled it up for Xia Yancheng.

"If the people who make the rules themselves don't follow the rules, why should they force others to obey the rules they make? My rules of the game, my decision. Come, Sister Le, I respect you! Xia Yancheng smiled and gave a toast in return, "Actually, I don't like people to call me 'Xia Yi's son', I don't want to live under the halo of my parents, but their savior halo is too heavy, and I can only look at their backs forever by their side, so I have to stay away from them." I am me, I can think independently, don't subconsciously think that I should stand on whose team, I am not the son of Xia Yi and Lu Ningxue, I am my own Xia Yancheng! ”

"Good! Cheers to our eldest young master's independence! Zheng Yuan also refilled a cup, the Valkyrie also got up, the cups of the four of them touched together, and a crisp voice sounded, at this moment, there seemed to be no more deceit in the atmosphere, they all let down their guard against each other in their hearts, and were honest with each other, and some were just sincere like friends and confidants.

Xia Yancheng vaguely remembered that when he was five years old, his father Xia Yi cast dissatisfied eyes at him for the first time, and he was angry with himself for the first time. He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, but Xia Yi thought that he would go down the wrong path in the future.

That time I looked back, that time I turned around, five-year-old Xia Yancheng's eyes were sharper than the eagle falcon, and in the corridor, the father and son looked at each other, and both of them showed the appearance of "eagle and wolf", and at that moment, the air was frozen.

Five-year-old Xia Yancheng participated in a competition called "Children's PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", which is a live-action simulated game team competition, which has blood volume and attack damage calculations. Divided into two teams, playing their respective roles in the game, and staged a five-on-five decisive battle, but Xia Yancheng accurately calculated the damage and blood ratio of the entire map and each person, deliberately hid his strength in the early stage, and even provided wrong information to his teammates, and his teammates and opponents calculated and pitted together. He has not participated in any team battles in the whole process, has not fired a single shot, and keeps picking up equipment and refuses to share it to preserve his strength. After calculating everyone's blood, after all his teammates died, he walked out unscathed, and staged a big reversal in a string of fives, not only winning the trophy, but also winning the honor of "best in the game".

"Cheng'er, you're so smart." Xia Yancheng walked out of the aisle happily with honor, but Xia Yi waited for him and sneered at him, "You are only five years old, at a young age, why is your mind full of thoughts that harm others and benefit yourself?" I didn't teach you that. ”

"As long as you can win, who says you can't count your teammates? Dad, you should be proud of me......"

"Pride? You sold out of your teammates today in exchange for the best title, did you sell your parents in the future to get the title of Emperor? Xia Yi spoke to his son in an angry tone for the first time, "You are a member of the team, this is a competition that tests teamwork, why do you always think about intrigue and intrigues, calculating this and calculating that?" ”

"I'll follow Daddy! I don't even want to mention the sacrifice of your teammates in the ultimate game......" Five-year-old Xia Yancheng was so arrogant that he ridiculed Xia Yi, and no one dared to talk to Xia Yi like this for many years.

"What did Arico tell you? This black history, she dares to talk about it everywhere, but Dad was forced to do so back then, and did you need it? ”

"Absolutely. If I were like them, would I still be able to perform so well? They grind their blood, I take heads, I'm smarter than them, they're stupid, I don't associate myself with fools, that's all. I'm going to do what the idiots think, to cooperate with them, I'm a support at best, can I still get heads? Can you still win the best in the game? I can calculate the tactics that are most beneficial to me in every position, desperately rush forward to grind the bloody wronged head, and the fool who lands into a box, who loves to be whom, I am a fisherman and profit, who can't stipulate it? My teammates are to sacrifice for me, I don't need teammates, I just need chess pieces. Xia Yan Cheng Zhenzhen has words.

Xia Yi couldn't suppress the fire now: "You stinky boy, you have the mentality of a speculator, who would dare to be friends with you?" ”

"Geniuses don't need friends, all I need are fanatical believers and obedient minions." Xia Yancheng showed an evil smile that was not what a five-year-old child should have, "My teammates don't die, how can I show my divine power of one dozen five?" My beloved father, don't you understand this? Didn't you educate me that when you play, you have to be ready to do a dozen nines at any time? Isn't basketball superstar 'Kobe Bryant' a living example? If he didn't have the mentality of 'one hit nine', thinking about his teammates everywhere, and passing the ball when he encountered an unfavorable situation, he could still score 81 points? Can you still be worshipped? Can you still be a superstar? With my talent, the common people don't deserve to be my teammates, you know? ”

"Kobe? Do you want to compare disciplines to anything? Why don't you get stronger! Say your word again! Xia Yi was forced to be angry by Xia Yancheng's "unashamed words", "Do you still have a little normal mind?" ”

"Sorry, no." Xia Yancheng actually admitted it "shamelessly".

Xia Yi breathed on the spot, and a light whip full of electricity conjured up in his hand: "At the age of five, you dare to ignore your father, and when you grow up, you won't be against the sky!" If you don't educate and educate you now, you will sooner or later go down the wrong path. ”
