"Lonely George?" Chu Zihang said, "I have read that it is the loneliest animal in the world."
Chu Zihang read it in an unpopular science magazine. One of his advantages is that he is never picky about what he reads. No matter what book he reads, he will read it from the first page to the last page word for word. He still remembers the words in the book.
A description of the Pinta Island tortoise named "George".
The Galapagos Islands in South America were once the habitat of giant tortoises. Giant tortoises are the largest turtles on land. Their average weight is much higher than that of adults and they can grow up to two meters. These clumsy big guys are
The island lives without any competition from the outside world until it is discovered by sailors who happen to pass by the island. The sailors will carry these big, defenseless creatures onto the ship as a reserve of food.
Due to the endless plundering by sailors and the invasion of alien species, the giant tortoises in the Galapagos Islands are almost on the verge of extinction. The most severely affected is Pinta Island, where the originally lush jungle has been gnawed into a bare desert island by the exotic wild goats.
.When the scientific expedition team arrived there, only the last male turtle was left crawling alone, seemingly looking for something.
The purebred Pinta Island tortoise has become extinct from the world. The only one is protected by scientists at the breeding base. It has no other kind in the world. People call this Pinta Island tortoise "Lonesome George"
.
"The Yuan family was actually judged to be extinct by the family until they found my brother and I in the mountains. We were still studying at the time. Someone came and told me that I was a descendant of the Yuan family. I was taken to the Snake Qihachi family.
"I became the head of the Yuan family." Yuan Zhisheng said, "I am said to be the head of the family, but in fact I am the only one in the whole Yuan family. When I read about Lonely George, I felt that I was the tortoise.
After everything is settled, I want to go see it, and I heard that it now lives in the Galapagos National Park."
"What about your brother?" Chu Zihang asked.
"He...should be gone." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head gently.
"Speaking of which, I also have a younger brother, but I'm not sure whether he's here or not." Lu Mingfei took another sip of soju and suddenly interjected, "Sometimes I think he is like a dream, and sometimes I think he is just a dream.
He is a living person, otherwise how could his character be so vivid and profound? He calls out "brother" without getting tired of it, and even his face is colored in the impression... The person in the dream will have
Is it the color?”
Yuan Zhisheng met Lu Mingfei's eyes. He had obviously drunk too much. His eyes were blurred, but deep down they were as clear as water.
For a moment, Yuan Zhisheng even felt that the other person was describing himself, and that he and his brother were also like a dream... But he still can't forget his brother's face. That face with distinct colors is sometimes like a dream, sometimes like a nightmare, and there is no way to escape.
Fall, avoid or avoid.
Yuan Zhisheng raised his cup of soju and touched it gently with Lu Mingfei, and then he also drank it down.
"I didn't expect that everyone had a hard time when they were young." Caesar also raised his wine glass and came over, "But sometimes the death of both parents is not necessarily a bad thing, at least we are freer, right? And scientific research shows that orphans are often better than ordinary people.
Children are more mature and independent, as there is a saying in the animation industry...Oh, parents sacrifice to heaven, their power is boundless!"
"Don't curse me, boss. My parents are living well, running around the world, and are very healthy!" Lu Mingfei waved his hands quickly, "Senior brother's mother is also doing well. She will probably be even better after meeting Xia Mi. Part 1
The first time I went to my senior brother's house, I heard Chu's mother and her sisters saying that Chu Zihang had such a great girlfriend, she must live to be two hundred years old, and she must witness the birth of her grandson's grandson."
Chu Zihang's face was dark. These words did sound like what his nonsensical mother said, but he didn't understand why these two drunkards had to bring the topic to him after they drank too much.
"Really, that's a pity, so no wonder I'm the team leader. My parents are dead, and neither you nor Chu Zihang can compare to me in this matter." Caesar seemed to be so drunk that he started talking nonsense.
.
"Isn't the head of the Pompeii family still alive?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.
"Is he the father? He's just a bastard." Caesar put a piece of sashimi into his mouth, "I thought he was dead for many years."
Chu Zihang didn't want to participate in this drunken night talk, so he stared at the knife handed over by Yuan Zhisheng. The warm candlelight and the cold moonlight were mixed on the blade, but the warm and light lights were not the same.
If they don't blend together, this knife is so sharp that it seems to be able to cut the light apart.
"The swords passed down from Minamoto no Yorimitsu's era are truly ancient swords, and they can actually still be used." Chu Zihang cut off the spider's hands and gave them back to Minamoto Chisheng.
"It contains alchemical craftsmanship." Yuan Zhisheng took the spider cut and said, "Everything has its fate. The knife is made to be used. This is the fate of the knife until the moment it breaks. Those
It's sad to see knives locked up in an exhibition cabinet or a treasure house, they can only gather dust."
"Do you believe in fatalism?" Chu Zihang asked.
"It's hard to say." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head slightly, "Dad told me that fate is the most fucked up thing in the world. When you believe in it, it takes away your hope. When you don't believe in it, it hits you on the head.
, it always backfires."
Chu Zihang glanced at Lu Mingfei and remembered that Lu Mingfei had said similar words to him.
"Why do you practice Japanese swords?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.
"I don't know Lu Mingfei. As for me, it's because the only thing my father left me was a Japanese sword." Chu Zihang said, pulling out a long sword as bright as a mirror from the dark scabbard beside him.
.
The Godly Sword Murasame, this sword once broke during the battle with Jörmungandr, and the alchemical matrix was also damaged. It was later repaired by Old Tang, and a new alchemical matrix was added to the blade, starting from the handle.
Triggered, the power of the word spirit of "Jun Yan" is the key to unlocking the alchemical matrix, and it can perfectly fit with Chu Zihang.
"What a powerful alchemy craft!" Even with the candlelight, Yuan Zhisheng could see the threatening power hidden in the blade at a glance. Even the candlelight was involuntarily pulled by the blade, as if there was a suction hidden there.
The fire array and flames have become its slaves.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Its name is Murasame. It was broken once. The flame alchemy matrix above was added after repairing it." Chu Zihang said.
"This is also an ancient sword. It has a history of at least three hundred years. The person who restored it is very skilled. He did not change the original structure of the sword and added such a powerful alchemical matrix. If this sword was put up for auction, the price would be conservatively estimated to be at least
It was sold for 300 million yen." Minamoto handed it back with both hands, "Although Murasame is fictional, this sword is more powerful than the Murasame recorded in "The Legend of the Eight Dogs by Nanso Satomi". You have a good sword.
.”
"Thank you." Chu Zihang took Murasame and sheathed him again.
Yuan Zhisheng looked at Chu Zihang deeply. He originally thought that this was the most powerful and indifferent person in the trio, like a war machine without emotions, but when he mentioned the word "father"
At that time, he didn't seem to be so invulnerable. He would make himself into a knife because of the knife left by his father... Such a guy also has feelings, but they are hidden a hundred times deeper than ordinary people and are difficult to see. Also
Because of this, he has an obsession that is a hundred times deeper than ordinary people.
Intuitively speaking, Yuan Zhisheng didn't like these three guys, but he had to admit that these people had a unique magic power.
"You seem to be different from what I imagined." Yuan Zhisheng said suddenly.
"Um?"
"You look like you have words written all over your face, keep away strangers, but you love your father very much. Who would have thought that you actually have a girlfriend." Yuan Zhisheng smiled, "And you are very good to your girlfriend."
Chu Zihang was stunned: "How can you tell?"
"You are a very well-behaved person, but at a grand banquet, you would put aside food and etiquette for a phone call from your girlfriend." Yuan Zhisheng said, "If a person can invade your life, change
A certain habit of yours means that it occupies a considerable weight in your heart."
"You're right." Chu Zihang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and admitted.
"Young master of the Snake Qihachi family, you don't need to think about your girlfriend. When you succeed as the head of the family, no one can blame you even in the public selection of concubines in Japan." Caesar returned to the topic again.
Although Caesar had eaten all kinds of expensive food, he had to admit that this banquet was very much to his liking. It made him drink a lot of wine, and he felt a sense of relief as he gazed at Tokyo in the night in a tipsy state.
Caesar is a sociable character. If Chu Zihang is the only one who chats happily with people from the Japanese branch, doesn't it mean that the student union president's communication skills are inferior to those of the Lion Heart Club president?
One end?
"Rather than taking over as the parent, I actually want to go to France. There is a famous nudist beach there, and I want to open a small shop selling sunscreen there." Yuan Zhisheng said, "I don't want to stay in Tokyo. I want to go to France."
I want to find a small city where no one knows me, and I am not a young family head, and I can live a life of doing nothing and waiting to die."
"It's inappropriate to leave the mafia head alone, but he wants to live out his life." Caesar's lips curved with a hint of contempt, "My father also said this, he felt that the position of the head of the mafia was different from that of the Gattuso family.
His bloodline is all a burden. His wish is probably to sleep with all the women he likes in the world, but 99% of those women are willing to sleep with him because of his wealth and status, and maybe him too.
His face, but that face was also given to him by the family’s blood. If he had not been born in the Gattuso family and was ugly, no woman would be willing to marry him just because of his bastard character.”
"You mean if I weren't the head of the underworld, I wouldn't be able to find a job selling sunscreen?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.
"No, you wouldn't want to sell sunscreen at that time." Caesar said, "People are like this. People in high positions and power clamor for freedom and leisure, so those rich people like to buy villas in the countryside.
, but they rarely have time to live there, so they put the house there as a kind of psychological comfort. But people at the bottom yearn for wealth and power, and they are even willing to pay any price to climb to a high position. In other words, you
You will always be dissatisfied with what you have and yearn for what you don’t have, regardless of whether that thing is worth anything.”
Yuan Zhisheng was silent for a long time: "Mr. Gattuso, if you were that turtle named George, what would you do?"
"What do you mean?" Caesar failed to understand what Yuan Zhisheng wanted to ask.
"George is the last Pinta Island tortoise in the world. Scientists found female tortoises from all over the world to mate with him, hoping to perpetuate this precious species, but George became interested in any female tortoise." Source
Jingsheng said, "One of these female tortoises must be the Yamato Nadeshiko of the tortoise world or the Audrey Hepburn of the tortoise world. I mean, George has seen beautiful tortoises all over the world, but he doesn't want to be with them."
Any one mates, because this is not what it wants. In the world of tortoises, George is just an ordinary tortoise. Its status and significance are given to it by humans. No matter how rare it is and how well-fed it is, it still
Yearning for the Pinta Island of yesteryear. Mr. Gattuso, if you were George, would you breed with Audrey Hepburn who imagined the world of turtles, or would you still want to crawl back to the puddles of yesteryear and roll in the mud."
"Although Audrey Hepburn is hard to refuse, I still want to crawl back to my own puddle." Caesar frowned, "The work of breeding offspring should be based on love. If it is for scientific research, a group of people wearing clothes will
The psychopaths in white clothes are locked up with a peerless beauty, and we are observed mating and so on... It makes me sick to think about it! I can't help but bite these evil people to death."
"So Mr. Gattuso, your father and I are not the same kind of people." Yuan Zhisheng said softly, "I lived a very ordinary life when I was a child. My status suddenly became rich, but these are not what I want.
The continuation and reputation of the Yuan family are not important to me. I have experienced both ordinary and wealthy lives. Selling sunscreen oil on a nudist beach is still my ideal in life."
"You can go now. You are an independent person, and an independent person should be free. Although you may be scolded by the family officials as the most irresponsible young master if you leave, do you care about this?" Kai
Sa rhetorically asked, "What should you care about is whether beautiful girls sit in economy class or first class on the plane, so you can decide which ticket you should buy, and whether your aesthetics lean towards European and American women or Japanese women. If you
If you like Japanese women, take advantage of your status as a mafia boss tonight to kidnap a girl from here and escape from Tokyo with you. When you arrive in France tomorrow night, you will be a man and woman who have successfully eloped. Is there anything more romantic in the world than this?"
"Ying is perfect!" Lu Mingfei slammed the table.
Yuan Zhisheng stared blankly at these psychopaths. Although these people still spoke nonsense, he had never felt that these psychopaths were so pleasing to the eye. He felt that he seemed to be infected, so he filled the cup with
Liquor, raising the glass high: "It's very romantic, let's have a drink for our romantic dreams!"
The four of them clinked the porcelain cups together, raised their heads and drank all the wine in the cups.
