"Some people say that there is only one step between the foot of the mountain and the top."
"Some people say that this step is just a climb."
"Some people say that this step is just a leap."
"But others say."
"This step is responsibility! It is courage! It is glory!"
"It's a matter of passion!"
"It's Chipin battlefield!"
"He is loyal and courageous!"
"It's about protecting our country!"
The strong wind carried Ning Wu's voice to every gatekeeper.
"Now, I want to congratulate you!"
"Congratulations on taking this step and coming to Tianma Pass!"
"it's here."
"What we are facing is evil and mystery, an abyss, decay and darkness!"
"But behind us, there are thousands of lights, great rivers and mountains, hope and the future!"
"Here, we have only one belief!"
"When people are locked up, they will die if they are locked up!"
In Ning Wu's loud voice, everyone could not help but hold their heads high and their eyes burning.
Ning Wu glanced at the faces of the newcomers one by one and shouted loudly.
"With approval, Jin Gaoxiang will be awarded the One-Star Gatekeeper Medal!"
"Award number: 01,035476!"
The so-called one-star gatekeeper medal is a symbol of becoming a gatekeeper.
In other words, every gatekeeper has a one-star medal, which is also the star rating of most people.
But if you want two stars or three stars, you can't get them by improving your strength.
Although there are many ways to upgrade stars, each of them almost requires lives to be exchanged, and even lives cannot be exchanged.
From Jiang Che's point of view, even if he had participated in the Chengdu incident, he would have been at a two-star level at best.
…
A man named Jin Gaoxiang stepped forward.
Immediately afterwards, two gatekeepers walked up to him holding square plates in their hands.
There is a red medal inlaid with a five-pointed star on the square plate, a numbered medal for the first class.
After the gatekeeper helped him put on the two medals, Jin Gao saluted and then entered the procession.
When the awarding process was over, Ning Wu withdrew his eyes from Jin Gaoxiang.
"With approval, Lin Wanji will be awarded the One-Star Gatekeeper Medal!"
"Award number: 01,03..."
"..."
"With approval, Cao Zhan is awarded the One-Star Gatekeeper Medal!"
"Award number..."
As time went on, it was finally the turn of the three-person team, and the process also changed.
Ning Wu: "With approval, Su Xiaojin is awarded the Two-Star Gatekeeper Medal!"
Ning Wu: "Su Xiaojin!"
Su Xiaojin: "Arrived!"
Ning Wu: "Do you want to restart the number 01,083575?"
Su Xiaojin's eyes trembled, but there was no surprised look on her face.
Obviously, she knows her father's identity very well.
But Jiang Che and Zhuge Ye were both surprised.
Because of some things, they almost never mentioned her parents in front of Su Xiaojin.
Now, Ning Wu is talking about "restart".
It turns out that Xiaojin's father is also a soldier.
No... to be precise, he is a gatekeeper.
According to the plot numbering pattern, 01 represents the plot, and 08 represents the plot number 08, which is... Rashomon!
At this time, Ning Wu raised his voice and asked again: "Su Xiaojin, do you want to restart the 01,083575 number!!"
"Restart or not, your father's number!"
Su Xiaojin: "Yes!"
Ning Wu: "No. 01,083575 is restarted for the first time! Grant the number!"
In Su Xiaojin's twinkling eyes, a two-star medal and a number for the first restart were worn on her body.
…
then.
Ning Wu's eyes fell on Zhuge Ye.
"After comparison, Zhugeye is awarded the Three-Star Gatekeeper Medal."
Ning Wu: "Zhuge Ye!"
Zhuge Ye: "Arrived!"
Ning Wu: "Do you want to restart the number 01,017633?"
Zhuge Ye's eyes widened: "What?!"
Jiang Che: Damn it... Zhugeye's father is actually the gatekeeper of No. 01 Sly Gate?!
This news is so exciting!
Out of the corner of his eye, Jiang Che saw that Zhuge Ye's eyes were starting to get wet.
Zhuge Ye: "Report, report!"
Ning Wu frowned slightly: "Say!"
Zhuge Ye swallowed his saliva and said: "Did I hear wrongly? I have never known who my father is all this time, and I have never seen my father, not even a photo of him! I Even...I don't even know what his name is..."
"I am a bastard of the Zhuge family!"
"Ever since I was little, they have called me a bastard! I... Ningguan Master, did you... make a mistake?"
Ning Wu looked at Zhuge Ye for a long time, and then he spoke in a loud voice: "Then from now on, you will no longer be a bastard!"
"You are a glorious gatekeeper, and you are a descendant of a gatekeeper!"
Zhuge Ye's body swayed, and tears burst into tears at this moment.
I... am not a bastard.
I'm no longer a bastard.
I am a descendant of the gatekeeper!
I am the gatekeeper!
Ning Wu: "Zhuge Ye, would you like to restart number 01,017633?"
Ning Wu: "No. 01,017633 is restarted for the second time! Grant the number!"
At this moment, everyone's eyes flickered.
The second restart is actually the second restart!
That is to say, within the lineage of Zhuge Ye's father.
This number has been restarted once, and the first owner of this number is most likely Zhuge Ye's grandfather.
At this moment, even Jiang Che couldn't help but feel proud of Zhuge Ye.
At the same time, Jiang Che finally understood why things about Zhuge Ye's father could not be found out.
It turns out that starting from his grandfather, their lineage of fathers was destined to be special.
At this time, Jiang Che suddenly heard the words of the Flame Demon God.
His parents are also the gatekeepers of No. 01 Guilty Gate...
…
With Zhuge Ye entering the queue, only the last newcomer of this entry ceremony is left who has not yet been awarded a medal.
Ning Wu looked at Jiang Che and took a deep breath without others noticing.
"With approval, Jiang Che is awarded the Five-Star Gatekeeper Medal!"
When they heard the word "five stars", everyone who knew its meaning cast a surprised look.
Even Jiang Che himself was shocked.
Five stars...why am I five stars?!
Ning Wu: "Jiang Che!"
Taking a step forward, Jiang Che said, "Here we go!"
Ning Wu: "Would you like to restart, number 01,010009!"
For Jiang Che, time seemed to stand still at this moment.
Under the roar of his brain, Jiang Che opened his mouth and shouted: "Yes!"
Ning Wu took a deep breath again.
His eyes were even trembling.
"No. 01,010009...the ninth restart! Grant the number!"
It coincided with a muffled thunder.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Jiang Che.
The ninth time, the ninth restart!
At this moment, there were only four words in their minds.
——The whole family is loyal!
In the fierce wind, Jiang Che's hoarse scream echoed on the platform.
"I will regard the number 01,010009 as a lifelong honor! Inherit the red gene of my father's generation! Dedicate myself to the noble cause of conspiracy!"
"I will build the Great Wall with my bones! In exchange for the lights of thousands of families! I will pour my blood on the territory! In exchange for the mountains and rivers remaining the same!"
"I am willing to protect the prosperous Great Xia with my life!"
…
…
Ten thousand feet of brilliant light, the rising sun.
