Chapter 21 Tang's Egg Day (Part 1)

It is still summer in the Ghost Gobi of the Capricorn Realm, but the Star Kingdom of the Twin Realms has already ushered in the first heavy snow in the middle of winter.

Standing on the top of the bell tower of the Golden Gate Manor with his hands behind his hands, Don Gauss looked down at the emerald hillside below. Under the night sky, covered with white snow, the lights of each villa were bright, like a sea of ​​light gathered by fireflies, extending to the city that never sleeps surrounding the emerald hillside.

Joyful songs and laughter floated out from every corner of the Evernight City, the capital of the Kingdom of Stars. Green pines were placed everywhere, and the branches were hung with colored lights and copper bells. Today coincided with the traditional New Year in the Twin Realms - the Holy Egg Festival, and the streets of the Evernight City were busy with traffic and people.

Watching the performances of various jugglers, minstrels, and dancing girls, waves of noise resounded through the sky from time to time.

"I have always wanted Gordon to live the life of an ordinary person." Gauss listened to the noisy singing and music in the distance and sighed softly, "Like those people, he can freely take to the streets and celebrate festivals;

You can hold a cloth sock filled with toys and show it off to the neighborhood kids.”

A strange and strange voice came from behind him: "Hey! If this really happens, Gordon will be killed before he is twenty years old."

"That's right, I can't." Gauss was silent for a while and then said, "So he didn't even have a happy and carefree childhood. There are some burdens that you have to carry as soon as you are born, whether you want to or not, you have to carry them.

Until death."

The weird voice shouted impatiently: "My son has only been away for half a year, and you keep nagging me like an old lady. Do you know? This is a disease. Browning said this disease is called menopause."

'!I said, can you still play chess? Gua!"

Gauss turned around and saw an old toad spirit sitting cross-legged across from him, holding a chess piece carved from white crystal in his hand, making a clanging sound on the chessboard.

The old toad spirit has blistered eyes and a scabrous head, and his cheeks bulge like balls when he talks. He is only one meter tall, his face is full of grease, and he is as fat as a mountain of flesh. His round arms and legs tighten his green robe, and he is squeezed.

It formed a circle of flesh. There were two small knives stuck on the back, the scabbards were colorful, and they were no different from children's toys.

"General!" Gauss picked up the black chess piece carved in the shape of a queen and pushed it to the white square on the chessboard.

"Quack!" The old toad spirit opened his mouth wide, scratched his head and stared at the chessboard for a long time. He raised his head and said seriously: "Let's talk about Gordon. Aren't you worried that he will die at the hands of the Blood Prison Society?

"

"He will be fine." Gauss's eyes flashed with pride, "Even I can't cure his disability, but he can heal himself. My son is not as simple as others think."

The old toad spirit nuzzled in the direction of the manor's villa and said jokingly: "Your other three 'sons' are not simple either. One lives in debauchery and indulges in sex; one bullies others and causes trouble everywhere; and the other is considered a martial arts genius, but was

You...hey, now you smoke marijuana and coca grass all day long, and you are still cynical."

"They were born to be Gordon's cannon fodder, and they should have been put to good use." Gauss said in a calm tone.

Golden Gate Manor was Gauss's official home, and his so-called three "sons" also lived here. When the three baby boys were still in their infancy, Gauss bought them and claimed them to be his own flesh and blood. He used

He raised them in a very special way: he doted on them and asked for everything. The two sons soon became the playboys that Gauss wanted, but the younger son went astray. He was extremely talented in cultivation, smart, studious, and ambitious. He was sixteen years old.

He entered the red iron level and was admitted to the premier Ivy Alchemy Academy in the Kingdom of Stars.

Gauss felt that this kid would be exploited by others in the future and would pose a threat to Gordon, so he caused an experimental accident at the Ivy Alchemy School. Since then, the genius has become a waste, giving up on himself, and has been unable to recover.

"Gah! At least they had a good time before they were killed." The old toad spirit shrugged. Tang had countless friends and enemies as well. In order to protect his real son, he needed to put his fake son on the table.

Use it as a target to attract enemies.

Gauss turned his head again and stared at the glorious night of the city that never sleeps. How is Gordon now? Can he survive? How long will it take for father and son to meet again?

The old toad spirit looked at the back of his old friend, and quietly moved his fingers towards the chessboard, thinking to himself. When he was young, Gauss was indifferent to anger and anger, and had superb skills. He had no hobbies or weaknesses. The most unruly elder in the family also treated him very well.

He was obedient. At that time, he even felt that even if his old friend met the Virgin Snow Peak who had lived in seclusion in the land of porcelain all year round and was known as the guy closest to the gods, he would still be able to compete in a battle of life and death.

But his biological son ended up being Don's only weakness.

"Lao Gua, you stole the chess piece." Gauss said without looking back.

"Quack! I didn't steal the chess!" The old toad spirit flushed, and the chess pieces turned into powder and fell from between his fingers. "You cheated when you lost. Do you have any character left? This chess game cannot be played! Quack!"

"He slapped the chessboard hard, and all the chess pieces jumped up and shattered into powder.

Gauss smiled slightly, walked back, and tapped the black-and-white chessboard with his five fingers. "Pop-pa-pa!" Every time he clicked his knuckles, a small amount of powder gathered together, re-condensed into chess pieces, and moved to the chessboard.

The original position. In more than ten breaths, the chess game was completely restored, except for the chess piece stolen by the old toad spirit.

The old toad spirit blinked and spread his hands with an innocent face: "I definitely didn't steal the chess. Is taking and stealing the same thing? Besides, now that we are talking about business, why are you playing a stupid chess? Do you have a sense of responsibility?

Ah? Gua!"

"Dang-dang..." The big copper bell in the clock tower struck twelve o'clock at the end of the year. The rich bell echoed in the night sky and blended with the cheers of the crowd in the city that never sleeps.

"Hey, it's time for you to meet your guests." The old toad spirit shook his green robe and suddenly turned into a bronze sculpture, standing in the corner.

Mysterious carriages appeared one after another quietly in front of the gate of Golden Gate Manor.

All carriages are covered with thick black velvet blankets, covering up the family crest on the carriages. Only the classical and elegant dark patterns on the wheel rollers show that each carriage is customized and of unique top quality.

A soft and slow knock sounded.

"Come in." Gauss said. At this moment, his expression was majestic, like a prison, his eyes were calm and profound, and his upright body was more majestic and straight than the bell tower.

The old butler with hair as shiny as silver walked into the door, bowed and handed over a list of names: "Dear Tang, this is the list of guests who want to see you tonight."

Gauss took a look at it and was quite surprised: "Sancho, the chief justice of the Kingdom of Stars? Is this highly respected man willing to condescend to me?"

The old butler smiled and said: "The prince of the Kingdom of Stars is seriously ill and cannot survive for a few days. After his death, one seat for the members of the Grand Council will be vacant. Justice Sancho must have wanted this position before he came to the door.

ask to see."
