"Chief, are you worried that I will usurp the throne?",
After Chen Zhi heard the harsh words of the leader on the throne, he felt a little uncomfortable and even felt a little funny. He frowned and said,
"I have no interest in the throne of Xiqi Royal City. Times have changed. My life is in the outside world..."
"No!"
The old man on the throne said in a very sharp voice. The aura of the voice was very strong, and the shocking feeling was as if the voice came from the sky.
"We, the Ji family, are nothing more than reckless men. We are worthy of the throne and cannot be said to have been usurped. The kings of mankind change hereditary. The loyal ministers in the past became the kingslayers. The kingslayers became the new kings, and then asked him to
His ministers are loyal to him. From generation to generation, it is normal for human beings to betray and trust, and trust and betray again. Human life is too short, and there is always something interesting to do."
But if you abandon this place one day, it will not necessarily be for rights. You will have something more important to you that makes you choose to leave. At that time, will you betray us? Are you willing to take an oath? "
Chen Zhi felt a little clouded after listening to the leader's words. After being silent for a long time, he said calmly,
"I will never betray the organization, because maintaining the barrier is very important. This is my belief, not Jiang Ziya's but my own belief.",
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he kneeled on the ground, half-kneeling like those warriors.
"I swear here today that I, Chen Zhi, will try my best to protect the barrier no matter what the circumstances, and I will never betray the Xiqi royal family."
"very good",
The old man on the throne immediately said with approval,
"I'm calling you here today, just for a casual chat, don't take it to heart.
A lot of things have happened outside during this period, many people have died, and some people's hearts have changed. Desire can make humans crazy. This reminds me of the time when the Five Kingdoms were in chaos. At that time, we also encountered such a crisis.
Many people from your Jiang family died for this, but it was still pacified. Your Jiang family is always kind to us humans~~~, but it’s a pity that humans never know how to be grateful.”
After the leader said this, he coughed twice. Like many elderly people, his voice contained hoarseness.
"Ping'er is dealing with those things outside. It has not been easy for this child these years, but his power is limited. You have to help him. Ji Ling is seriously injured. Ji Ying will protect you on his behalf. She will obey everything you do.
Order and convey my instructions, you can trust her completely. Remember your promise and never betray me."
"Yes, then..., if there is nothing else, I will go down."
This conversation gave Chen Zhi an inexplicable pressure, and he hurriedly left the royal court. After saying goodbye to the leader, he exited the hall, and Ji Ying followed him out.
Through this period of contact, Chen Zhi got to know Ji Ying to a certain extent. Ji Ying's heart was a little different from what she showed. She didn't look so tough on the surface, and even often behaved very softly. She was a soft person.
A very contradictory person.
Ji Ying speaks very little. She doesn't like to express herself like other women, nor does she like to show her strength like other warriors. She prefers to listen, and her attitude towards Chen Zhi and the leader is very respectful. But there is something in her
It was a place that made people feel scared and gave them a trembling feeling from the inside out, but Chen Zhi never discovered what this feeling was.
Ji Ying followed Chen Zhi out and told Chen Zhi that Chen Zhi would have to go to the infirmary to apply ointment today.
The burns on Chen Zhi's body have basically healed, but from a doctor's point of view, the most important thing now is to restore his body's own functions, because the damage caused to his physical fitness by several missions is no joke. If
If ignored, Chen Zhi will be disabled in a few years.
Chen Zhi needs to apply a green ointment every day, which is a mixture of seaweed and some random Chinese herbal medicine.
There is a lot of witchcraft mixed into the ointment. Every day, the witches chant large sections of incantations to these green ointments. Then a group of witches spit their saliva into the ointment and transfer their witchcraft into it.
.
This made Chen Zhi feel that these green ointments were very disgusting, but Chen Zhi still applied these ointments on himself every day, and today was the last day.
There is a very special atmosphere in Xiqi King City. There is an aura of death for thousands of years everywhere here. Xiqi King City itself is such a building. There are many places where there are ruins where ancient corpses are buried.
People were cleaning it up and it looked like an abandoned city.
However, the facilities inside the royal city are very complete. Even some electrical equipment that can be seen outside can be seen here, and some medical personnel who should belong to the outside world also appear in Xiqi Royal City.
The medical office in the royal city is completely modernly decorated. The instruments in the operating room and treatment room are all top-notch equipment in the world. The sheets in the ward are spotless. There are even LED touch screens on the walls. All the equipment is cutting-edge.
It has almost reached the standard of super five-star. However, Chen Zhi rarely sees anyone treating in the infirmary. He usually only sees a few doctors wearing white gowns and masks appearing inside. These doctors do not speak to each other and behave cautiously.
This made Chen Zhi even suspect that they were all kidnapped by the organization.
Until now, Chen Zhi still relies on the old lantern boy to guide him. The interior of Xiqi King City is so big and complicated that it feels like a maze that you can never get out of. No matter where you go, you must follow the lantern boy.
If one day the old lamp boy throws him somewhere, Chen Zhi will really lose his way in this dark royal city.
Chen Zhi and Ji Ying followed the old lamp boy to the medical room. The old lamp boy never knew how tired he was, he was always on call, and he was always polite, floating in front of them to guide them on the way.
They quickly walked to the medical room, where two doctors wearing white gowns and masks stood waiting for Chen Zhi with a jar of foul-smelling green ointment in their hands.
Chen Zhi took off his coat and sat on the hospital bed. His body was covered with layers of bandages. After a while, the doctors would remove the bandages on his body and then apply the foul-smelling ointment on his body.
On the body.
"You guys go out! Let me come",
Ji Ying ordered softly and took the green ointment from the hands of the two doctors.
In Xiqi King City, the status of the great warriors was second only to the chiefs and clan leaders. No one dared to disobey the orders of the red belt warriors. The two doctors looked at each other, walked out of the room together and closed the door.
