Chu Yunsheng was sitting in Hu Er's king's carriage. The curtains around it were all covered, so the people outside could only vaguely see the shadow inside. According to Hu Er, the untouchables were not qualified to see its face.
According to this statement, Chu Yunsheng felt that he could also be regarded as an untouchable. Since he knew Hu Er, he had never seen Hu Er's face in the golden armor.
He already knew that there were many races in the mainland empire. For example, Hu Er and his little maid in front of him were two completely different races. If the shadow man was here, he might study whether they could reproduce, but Chu Yunsheng was not interested in that.
For the first time, Chu Yunsheng saw the true appearance of this race that dominated the mainland. They had horns on their heads, standing in front of their foreheads, and looked very fierce. Their appearance was generally rough, far less delicate than the Heavenly Feather Race, but their bodies were very strong, and their strength was also very great. Especially their tails, it was the most powerful race he had ever seen.
It was said that earthlings used to have tails, but now they had long lost them, so in their eyes, they were a different species. No matter who it was, they would say that earthlings were deformed people without tails.
Hu Er obviously used to say this before, but when he sat here, he changed his words and no longer mentioned it.
There was still some distance from the resting palace arranged for Hu Er by the city lord. Hu Er closed his eyes and sat on the bed in the carriage, probably because he was tired. Chu Yunsheng's energy was still good. Since the injection of the red liquid in the spaceship, his physical strength had been very abundant. Although the zero-dimensional space was damaged, he did not feel it, and he was not affected. Except for the occasional hunger, there was no other discomfort.
The noise and screaming outside had nothing to do with him, so he seized the time to cultivate. His current stage was very strange. The Pure Yuan Qi stage of Yuan Tian stage two coexisted with the Fire Yuan Qi stage of Yuan Tian stage three. If he had to cultivate the Ice Yuan Qi stage in the future, it would not be too strange for him to do so.
It would be a bit difficult to reach the middle stage of Yuan Tian stage three, especially to the peak. Although he had experience, it was not a lot. He still had to hurry up and try to reach the peak before he arrived at the Sun City. Then he would try to find a secluded place to use the death energy as a cover to break through to the cardinal realm.
That way, he would have the confidence to bargain with the cardinal of the Continental Empire, or even start a war.
While cultivating, Zhang Xuan's mind was in a mess. He remembered that he had been so busy that he hadn't asked Wen Luo and Amir if they had obtained the Soul Mirror, so he sent Xiao Na to call them over. However, as soon as he moved, he felt a strange sensation flash past him. It was very strange.
He was not familiar with this feeling, but it was not strange either. In the final analysis, it was because of the zero-dimensional problem that he had lost a lot of "sensory" abilities, so he could not be sure.
It was impossible for the shadow man to contact him. If it had recovered, it would come to kill him directly. If it had not recovered, it would not be so stupid as to kill itself. There were only a few possibilities left. Either the giant was not completely dead, or it was Ashe, who had the blood of life force. But these were not important. The most troublesome thing was whether it was that person or not.
He hurriedly called Xiao Na over. He used his finger to point in the direction where that feeling came from and said, "Take him there and see if there's anyone with a special appearance. If you meet them, don't alarm them. Just come back and tell me. If you don't meet them, take a stroll around and keep an eye out."
Chu Yunsheng was not sure which direction it was. It was just a very weak and vague feeling. It was very likely that it was the wrong direction. But there were too many people, so he could only give Xiao Na a clear direction.
He didn't say what the special appearance was. He believed that if Xiao Na saw someone who looked like him, he would naturally understand. If he didn't see it, there was no need to say it.
Xiao Na was better than Ba Yi. He never asked too many questions. He immediately took the order and left. Taking six blood riders, they ran in the direction Chu Yunsheng pointed.
Sitting in the car, Chu Yunsheng was very restless. He was very conflicted. He wanted Xiao Na to meet them, so he could control the situation, but he didn't want Xiao Na to meet them. He hoped that they had left quietly and that there would be no terrible things in the future.
Time became difficult to bear. Although he was still sitting in the same place and still cultivating, his heart was always restless.
"What's the matter?" Hu Er stood up, walked to the table, and sat down. The maid immediately poured it a drink and stepped aside.
Chu Yunsheng looked at it and suddenly asked, "Let me ask you a question, if there is one … such as your brother, and only one of you can survive, what will you do?"
"Deep relationship? Can't decide?" Hu Er frowned.
Chu Yunsheng shook his head. He didn't know how to describe this kind of relationship, but it was true that he didn't have a deep relationship with that person. They had only met once.
"Kill him and live me." Hu Er said calmly, "This is the law of the world."
Chu Yunsheng was speechless. After a while, he shook his head. He asked the wrong question, and the person he asked was also wrong, so the answer he got was naturally worthless.
He was not afraid that his words would cause Hu Er to think of something. Firstly, Hu Er did not know that the brother he was talking about looked almost similar to him. Even if he went to look for it, there were too many Earthlings who looked similar. He would definitely be courting death. Secondly, even if he found it, it would not be a threat to him. He was also troubled about how to deal with it.
Hu Er also didn't need to make such a big noise. Before he even started, he would find out that he had already offended him.
Chu Yunsheng changed the topic and said, "I heard that before you left the northern expedition, you executed eleven castle vassals?"
Hu Er snorted coldly and said, "Yes, they all deserved to be killed. I know what you want to say, but some things must be done. Let me put it this way, to put it bluntly, it's just a show. Killing a few vassals is not for the other nobles to see, they won't be scared anymore. Moreover, the corruption of the palace is far worse than them. I won't deny it. When you get to the sun city, you will know. The reason why I killed them was to show the commoners of the empire, to make them think that the palace, especially the royal family, is still good. It's the noble vassals who violated the decree of the palace, and it's the vassals who ruined the grace of the royal family. Let them always think that there is still hope. That's it, it's very simple. "
Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but think of a word, "stupid people?"
"Stupid people? Is that what you earthlings call it? " Hu Er seemed to be trying to figure out the meaning of this word. Then he sneered and said, "The untouchables are ignorant. When they are desperate, they will only look forward to a new emperor at most … Besides, if we don't do this, the Grand Cardinal you mentioned will one day kill and clear us out, so that those untouchables will think that the Grand Cardinal is really good and has just been deceived by us. In this way, in the empire, from the bottom to the top, whoever doesn't do it will be waiting to be killed to fill the pit."
Chu Yunsheng suddenly said, "What about your gods?"
At this time, Hu Er said without hesitation, "Gods give us life and let us live in this world. Everything we have is given by them. Whatever they do is what they should do. Even if they want us to die, there must be a reason."
Chu Yunsheng didn't want to argue with it. From what Hu Er said just now, he was a little touched. He could understand that Hu Er's royal family wanted to use means to maintain their rule, but it was a bit puzzling that the cardinals would occasionally take action. Beings at that level shouldn't care about the thoughts of the "untouchables". Why would they take action when the royal family couldn't maintain their high and glorious image?
It was absolutely impossible that there were no benefits. As Hu Er said, benefits could barely be regarded as the truth in the world.
But this kind of benefit certainly had nothing to do with the power of the secular world. The cardinals didn't need it. No matter which regime was in power, they had to kneel at its feet. Therefore, there must be other reasons, and they were very important.
According to Hu Er, it seemed that only the gods could jump out of this strange circle, so he asked the last question.
This secret could only be known when he became a cardinal. The shadow man wouldn't tell him, so it was impossible for the other five cardinals to tell him.
But to Chu Yunsheng's surprise, after a moment of silence, Hu Er also said a few inexplicable words, "Maybe you don't believe it, even I don't believe it. I always feel that this world can't always go on like this. Civilians … especially after you earthlings came here, I know you. This feeling is getting stronger and stronger. So, I want to do something, but I can't see the future …"
Only it would say these words to him. If it was someone else, even if it was a prince, he would not have a good ending in this strict country.
Chu Yunsheng immediately thought that Hu Er might want to tell him something, but it couldn't find anyone to tell him, so he was the most suitable person. Secondly, it might also tell him one of its secrets in reply to his words of "brother" just now.
This person was too smart!
Chu Yunsheng always felt that his IQ was not enough to deal with these people.
Xiao Na still didn't come back. Chu Yunsheng was a little relieved, but at the same time, he was a little disappointed. He didn't know what he was thinking.
…
The temporary palace that City Lord Dourquelaag had set up for Hu 'er was extremely luxurious. Precious silks of unknown origin could be seen everywhere, and there was a dazzling lineup of delicacies. There were so many maids that they were dazzling to the eye, standing on both sides of the garden. In the center of the garden, there were even female singers dancing tirelessly.
Even though Chu Yunsheng came from a modern civilization, he still felt that he had instantly become a bumpkin in this place. The difference between the upper and lower classes would not be erased by "time travel". No matter which society a bumpkin was in, he would always be a bumpkin, and he would never immediately become superior.
In Chu Yunsheng's opinion, it was already very good to be able to prepare such a luxurious palace in such a short period of time in such a remote place. He had only enjoyed it a few times in his life. The most luxurious ones were probably Tang Yi's birthday party and Song Ying's birthday party in Shu Du city. It was only when he went to other people's birthday party that he experienced the world of the upper class. Other times, to be honest, his life was not even as good as Tang Yi and Song Ying's dog.
Just look at Hu Er's expression right now, no, just look at Dauquelag's expression. It was completely uneasy. Wherever Hu Er looked, even if there was a trace of disdain in his eyes, it would still make Dauquelag extremely embarrassed and nervous.
However, although he was indeed a bumpkin, Chu Yunsheng's interest was limited to this. A dazzling array of exquisite food might not be more attractive to him than a meat bun when he came out of the cave. After all, he was not like Hu Er and Tang Yi who "really" knew how to enjoy life. The only difference was that from top to bottom, from Hu Er to Dauquelag, no one dared to say that he was a bumpkin!
His every move, no matter if it was vulgar or not, was elegant in the eyes of Hu Er, or at least in the eyes of Dauquelag. He thought that it was the unique habit and temperament of the nobles on earth.
How powerful was the God's Walker? How could he not be a noble!?
Of course, if Bauer saw it, he would never agree with Dauquelag's "judgment". Unfortunately, even if he was a counselor, he was not qualified to come in.
Chu Yunsheng did not know how to pretend. He knew how to pretend to be dead, but he would never pretend to be elegant in this kind of situation in order to prove that he was not a bumpkin. Or, like Ruan Xiaohong, he would have to jump out one or two words of the Heavenly Feather Clan to show his class.
He was very simple. At least, he still had to maintain his fabricated title of God's Walker. But he did not do it on purpose. He sat when he was supposed to sit, walked when he was supposed to leave, ate when he was supposed to eat, and asked for chopsticks when he was supposed to.
Dauquelag tried his best to curry favor with Chu Yunsheng, who was a freak. This caused many servants at the banquet to be shocked and puzzled. Some noble women who were not qualified to go out of the city to greet Prince Hu Er even cast him a look of disdain, but Dauquelag was very thick-skinned and ignored them.
It was all because of Chu Yunsheng that he could still sit here alive and Prince Hu Er could still accept his banquet. Instead of saying that he was entertaining Prince Hu Er, it was more like Prince Hu Er was using his place to entertain this freak from Earth.
Now he also knew that the only person who could save his entire clan was this man!
There were too many people at the banquet, so Chu Yunsheng didn't say anything and just focused on eating. Other than the seductive dancers in the middle of the pool, which made him dizzy, the food was pretty good. Dauqueleg specially made two legendary chopsticks for him, and the service was very attentive.
After the meal, Chu Yunsheng still did not see Xiao Na come back. Chu Yunsheng was worried, so he sent two more Blood Riders to look for him. He left the long banquet first and went to the place that Dauquelag arranged for him to rest. Although he was indeed very sleepy and needed to sleep, he could not fall asleep no matter what.
But as soon as he entered the spacious golden room, Chu Yunsheng almost jumped out of his skin. Old man Dauquelag was really good at flattering people. In the beautiful room, there were no less than thirty maids standing in all kinds of seductive postures. Their clothes were so thin that it was almost like they were not wearing anything, especially the rows of wagging tails … plus all kinds of unknown utensils, it was almost like they could set up a stall!
The old man must have known that Hu Er's people were not good enough for him, so he sent all of them to him. The attendant who led the way even "specially" introduced which ones were the most favored by the Castellan, which ones were new, and which ones had not been favored by any of them yet …
