Chapter 1948: Detour tactics, revenge demands
"I pay homage to you."
It was not too difficult to find Zhou Yi on Zhou Yi's territory, especially when Yang Jian himself was his right-hand man. So there was almost no obstacle, Yang Jian brought Frank to Zhou Yi. As soon as he saw Zhou Yi, he immediately half-kneeled respectfully.
Perhaps Zhou Yi repeatedly said that there was no need for such a meeting etiquette that would damage his personality, but Yang Jian has always insisted that he had no choice. Besides, Yang Jian's current action is not just to express his position. Another very important reason is that he wants to cheat Guanyin.
No matter what, in front of Zhou Yi, the Emperor of Heaven, Guanyin and he can be the same as a husband and wife. The common sense of husband being the wife's main point is here, and there is no reason to say that he has already kneeled down, Guanyin can still stand there and pretend to be noble.
Guanyin is indeed not qualified to show off now, especially after Zhou Yi turned his attention to her. She could have been reserved on the grounds that she was an outsider, but now she can obviously not be able to make any comments on this.
So after glaring at Yang Jian in anger, she could only slowly bow down.
"Avalokitesvara worship the Great Heavenly Lord."
"Get up." He shook his head helplessly, ignoring the intrigue between the couple in private. Zhou Yi pushed Zhou Shang who was standing beside him and said to Yang Jian and the others. "You are here just right, Yang Jian. Let you know, this is my eldest son, Zhou Shang."
"My subordinates have met the eldest prince." After hearing Zhou Yi's introduction, Yang Jian quickly greeted him. To him, when Zhou Yi opened this mouth and showed Zhou Shang's identity, Zhou Shang was already the young master he needed to serve. Perhaps this behavior seems a bit ridiculous today, but it is normal for Yang Jian, who has classical sentiment.
After all, from the moment he swore allegiance to Zhou Yi, he had actually completely dedicated his loyalty. Under the traditional thinking of being loyal to the whole world, this kind of loyalty can be spread to Zhou Yi's relatives, especially his descendants. Although it is not as loyal as he treats Zhou Yi, he is almost absolute. However, with such a relationship, it is enough to make Yang Jian show the closest attitude.
"Yang Jian is my right-hand man, an indispensable important official in the heavenly court. His virtues and abilities are absolutely a temporary choice even among the gods in the sky. You must be respectful enough to treat him. If you see him on weekdays, you should call him "Uncle, do you know?"
I haven't seen my son for a few years, but I didn't expect that Zhou Shang has grown so old. This made Zhou Yi feel overwhelmed while being happy. There is no doubt that he had missed the most important period of his son's growth. And he was eager to make up for this mistake, so he naturally seized every opportunity to fulfill his father's obligations.
For a father, it is very important to let his son know the best and wrong, and to know what attitude toward who should use. Now that Yang Jian, a typical model, has been sent to him, he naturally started to preach.
Zhou Shang naturally could not ignore the teachings from his father. In fact, even if Zhou Yi didn't say that, he would not show any bad attitude towards Yang Jian. The reason is very simple, just like his previous ridicule of monkeys. He doesn't care about how capable the person is, but about what kind of moral integrity the person is in his heart.
It is obviously not his food to bully the weak and fear the strong. But Yang Jian, who has been carrying layers of burdens since he was a teenager, and even to save his mother, those who can chop Taoshan are very fond of him.
"You are the legendary Erlang Shen? It looks different from what the monkey said."
"In the Heavenly Court, I probably have these three eyes except for the Thunder God. The Thunder God is a descendant of the ancient Thunder God. He has a half-human and half-beast shape, two wings, three eyes, a red face and a sharp mouth. The honor is really unbearable. He looks nothing like his subordinates!"
Yang Jian said half-jokingly, and he also hurt a colleague in the Heavenly Court. When Zhou Shang heard him say this, he smiled knowingly, and at the same time he felt that Yang Jian was about his appetite.
After all, he is still a child, and he can't like the old-fashioned and conservative pedan. In comparison, Yang Jian, who is obviously in a high position but can still talk and laugh with him, naturally became likable.
Yang Jian was able to please Zhou Shang, the eldest prince, which really made Guan Shiyin a little jealous. Because anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Emperor of Heaven is a person who cares about family affection very much. As his eldest son, Zhou Shang is obviously his heart. If he could have a good relationship with this heart, many problems in the past would probably not be any more.
Guan Shiyin thought a lot in her mind, and no matter how much she thought, it was still an insurmountable hurdle in front of her. That was, the Emperor of Heaven did not say anything, and she did not dare to act rashly.
This is no longer the era of the Jade Emperor. These Buddhists basically lost their voice in the heavenly court. Although she was Guanyin Bodhisattva, she still dared not step beyond the line. As for Zhou Yi's original intention, he also did not want his son to have any contact with these Buddhists.
He didn't want his son to get involved in the bad habits of Buddhists, but no matter what, there was a special relationship between Guanyin and Yang Jian. This was a pit he dug himself, so he had to fill it in. So after he hesitating for a while, he still pointed at Guanyin and said to Zhou Shang for Yang Jian's sake.
"This is Guanyin, you should have heard of her reputation. Now he is your Uncle Yang's wife, so you can think about what you should call her."
"So should I call Aunt Guanyin or Mrs. Yang?"
Zhou Shang was a little exhausted, and he really couldn't think of any better title. Faced with his guessing title, Guan Shiyin's face began to twitch. Perhaps Zhou Shang himself didn't think so, but for Guan Shiyin, his titles were a bit too harsh and too mocking.
The key is that she can't refute any of this, and even said that she could only force herself to smile and say this to Zhou Shang.
"Just call me Guanyin, His Highness the Crown Prince. When I first met, I didn't have anything to show off. However, I have a golden hoop here, so the Crown Prince can take it and play with it."
As Guanyin said, she took off a gold bracelet from her hand and handed it to Zhou Shang. Looking at the gold bracelet handed to him, Zhou Shang suddenly showed a disgusting expression.
"Although I am very grateful for your kindness, Guanyin, I am a man and don't like wearing a bracelet on my body like a girl."
"This golden hoop is not as simple as a bracelet," Guanyin said, pulling Zhou Shang's hand, and at the same time shrinking the golden bracelet into a golden ring and putting it on his fingers. "This is a magic weapon made by my imitation of Laojun's Vajra Carving, plus my own three golden ban mantras. It can be big or small, and can be retracted or released. On weekdays, you can scale and play with it at will. Of course, if you encounter any enemy, you can throw this golden hoop out to defend the enemy. Like the Vajra Carving, if this golden hoop is smashed, it will be at least ten thousand jin of divine power. Even the Vajra Body may not be able to hold it. And if you put it on someone's head, then with my Tight Hoop Curse, it will be enough to make him a life-and-death dilemma, and you can only be controlled by you."
There is no doubt that this is a real magic weapon, even if it is placed in the heavens, it is a rare existence. Guanyin can take out such a magic weapon, which is considered to be a huge sum of money. Looking at such a magic weapon, Frank couldn't help but straighten his eyes.
Although even if he is given such a magic weapon, he may not be able to avenge him. However, having a magic weapon and having no magic weapon is a matter of different things. At the very least, this is a force that can further promote his ultimate goal of revenge.
However, he knew very well that envying and coveting was another matter. Guanyin and himself had not yet had a good relationship with him to give away such magic weapons at will. Besides, his background was not enough to support him to accept such treasures at will.
He is quite sober about what he deserves and what he cannot get now. And it is precisely this sober manifestation that made Zhou Yi look at this little guy sideways.
Normally, as the Emperor of Heaven, Zhou Yi didn't need to care about who Yang Jian was following. Whether it was recruiting disciples or entourages, it was their private affairs, and he really had no reason to intervene. However, the child in front of him was really strange. After all, he clearly remembered how Yang Jian viewed these foreign people. Now he actually brought such a child with him, which was not like his style.
“This kid is”
"He said he was Frank Stark." Before Frank could introduce himself, Yang Jian had already answered first. Listening to his answer, Zhou Yi's eyes when he looked at Frank changed color instantly.
"Stark? So, are you Tony's son? Is your father okay?"
Zhou Yi, who has only been in contact with his son, still doesn't know some of the things that happened in this world. To him, Tony is just an old friend who has not seen him for many years. Although there are many hard-to-speaking past events in the past, several years have passed and it is not impossible to let go.
In fact, if we could meet again with our old friends at this time, it might be a situation where we meet each other and smile to eliminate grudges. But unfortunately, this scene is unlikely to happen.
"My father is dead, Uncle Zhou. I'm here to find you in the hope of gaining the power to avenge my father from you."
"Stark is dead" seemed to be stating some ordinary facts, but those who are familiar with Zhou Yi can still see from the subtle changes in his eyes, how complicated he is in his heart at this moment.
Perhaps he never thought that the only news he heard after seeing an old friend was such a death news. Especially about Stark, he thought that a bastard like Stark could live so well. But who would have thought that everything would happen so quickly and so suddenly?
"So how did he die? War, or a game of heroism, or a dirty game between those politicians?"
The above guesses were made about Stark's death. This was what Zhou Yi believed that Stark's most likely way of death. Because he chose such a way of life after all, as the saying goes, the general will inevitably die in front of the formation. If he thinks like this, it will only be a matter of time.
"None of them, he died in a despicable murder."
Without any hesitation, he gave this definition of his father's death. Frank said to Zhou Yi in such a way that he was fanning the flames.
"That despicable guy threatened my father with the safety of my mother and I, forcing him to go to this place to die. If that damn guy had not used such a despicable method, how could my father die so easily?"
"Is he dead like this? Not bad, it's much better than dying because of this ridiculous country."
He murmured to himself with a drifting look, and then Zhou Yi focused his eyes on Frank. After experiencing everything he experienced, I am afraid anyone would have a more thoughtful mind. Of course, he would not be an exception. Although he did not doubt whether the child who was similar to Tony Stark in front of him was Tony's child, this did not mean that he was willing to believe that everything he said was true.
"Tell me, who killed him. And what do you want from me to help you complete this revenge?"
"Smith Zhou, the person who killed my father is called Smith Zhou."
When he said this, Frank widened his eyes and stared at Zhou Yi. It was not surprising that he had this attitude, because many people knew that the father-son relationship between Smith and Zhou Yi was not harmonious on the surface, but who could say with certainty that Zhou Yi would definitely be able to give up this father-son relationship and fight with his biological father.
Although Frank has the greatest hope in this regard, this does not mean that he can be 100% sure that he will definitely be as he expected.
So he longed, prayed, and hoped that things would develop as he expected. However, the reality was that Zhou Yi kept silent about Smith Zhou, but instead asked him this question.
