Chapter 31 The enlightened person is not an emperor, and the emperor will die
Why Awakened People Can't Be Emperors.
"That is God's will,"
Liu Wenjing stretched out her hand and pointed upward. The word "mysterious" was written all over her face.
"The first meteorite fragment discovered had this sentence engraved on it -
‘If the awakened person is not an emperor, the emperor will surely perish.’”
Can such a thing be regulated? Wu Ma felt a sense of absurdity in his heart.
"Weren't those words written with a brush?"
"How is that possible!" Liu Wenjing's voice suddenly became sharp, "Yang Xuangan...have you ever heard of him?"
"It's a bit impressive."
Of course Wu Ma knew that Yang Xuangan, the Minister of Rites, was the leader of the first rebellion of wealthy noble families in the Sui Dynasty.
It seems that he was the first person in Chinese history to implicate the Nine Clans.
Liu Wenjing sneered: "Yang Xuangan was an awakened disciple, and he was still dreaming of becoming an emperor, so he died. And he died very miserably——
Was struck into pieces by thunder.
If Mr. Wu Lang doesn’t believe it, you can go out and ask around.”
Who should I ask about the awakened disciples? The dancing horse coughed repeatedly, paying tribute to history that has been changed beyond recognition.
"Okay, but what does this have to do with me grabbing the pieces?"
"Since the appearance of meteorite fragments, everyone who owns them has been regarded as a person chosen by the gods. He has great luck and can compete in the world. People with lofty ideals will gradually gather around him.
Therefore, whoever holds the meteorite fragments in his hand wants to be the emperor and has the opportunity to become the emperor."
When Liu Wenjing said this, she smiled and said,
"To be honest, it's useless even if Wulang-kun snatches away the fragments. Do you know what is written on the third meteorite fragment that was discovered?"
"Awakened disciples...can't grab the fragments, or they will die?"
"Hey,"
Liu Wenjing said: "What is written on it is: If the enlightened person does not attack the tower, he will die violently if he does."
"It's just to fool children," Wu Ma's eyes widened, "Did you see it?"
"Don't take it seriously."
Liu Wenjing said, "Someone once did this and it exploded on the spot. I saw it with my own eyes. It is now generally accepted that the person who can possess the meteorite fragments and summon the Awakening Tower must be a hero and have good luck to be able to descend."
You can live in it. Mediocre people, ordinary people, ordinary people, don’t overestimate your abilities.”
The black lines on my forehead were covered with dancing horses, and I thought that in short, it was just a sentence - don't take the stone if you don't dare.
Although he had no idea of becoming an emperor at all, he felt deeply discriminated against when he heard this very targeted rule.
"Why are there these rules? Who carved them? Are all the fragments engraved with words?"
"Don't ask," Liu Wenjing pursed her lips, "asking is God's will.
As for the rules on the fragments, only the first few stones were revealed. There were probably words on the fragments at the back, but the person who took the fragments didn't say it out."
"so,"
Dancing Horse tapped the table with his index finger,
"If I want to study awakening techniques, I can't find stones by myself, nor can I do it alone. I have to join a force that owns an awakening tower?"
"This is called naturalization. Looking at the world——"
Liu Wenjing stretched out her hand, drew an exaggerated circle in mid-air, then clenched her fist,
"Is there any hero who can compare with Tang Gong and Erlang's courage, vision and mind?"
I know this better than you. After all, they were the first two emperors of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Wu Ma pouted.
"That's why again,"
Wu Ma continued to knock on the table: "Last night when you went to the Juncheng Mansion, you actually went to grab the meteorite fragments——
I had a life-and-death fight with Tian Deping, and you got the good stuff, but in turn you used stones to recruit me."
"This is...not bad,"
Liu Wenjing rolled her eyes and simply confessed.
Damn it, he finally figured it out. Although this Mr. Dancer is said to have been practicing in the mountains all year round, he is definitely not stupid. There is no point in going around in circles.
"Yes, Duke Tang has known about Tian Deping for a long time.
Last night we searched the house all night and found the stone in the house named Tian.
Last night's night attack was successful, thanks to Mr. Wu Lang's great efforts.
The benefits are not all ours to go.
This is also the reason why I am here today to urge Mr. Wu Lang to join Duke Tang."
"That can't be done...the stone has already been in Duke Tang's hands, and it is impossible to get it back."
"Talking about money hurts feelings. It is a great fate for us to meet each other and share the hardships together."
"My disciple Yuwen Jianxue also wants to be naturalized in the Tang Gong Family Awakening Pagoda... Wouldn't it be great for us three fellow cultivators in the same tower to communicate with each other, improve together, and have a closer relationship in the future?"
"Tang Gong is about to raise his army, and the business of making meritorious deeds will be done in these two days. Mr. Wu Lang joins in early and can have a hot meal, and he can be regarded as one of the founding fathers."
"You need to be naturalized in the Awakening Tower as soon as possible... If after we have summoned the tower body, Mr. Dancer regrets and joins again, I'm afraid I will only be left to drink vegetable soup."
"I promise, there aren't many awakening towers out there today."
"There are only five or six."
"Yes, they are not very high. Just those from Li Mi's family in Wagang, and those from Yang Guang's family... yes, the high points are limited."
Liu Wenjing's mouth was dry and her throat was about to smoke.
In the end, I just talked nonsense, and I might not even believe what I said.
Seeing Wu Ma's face becoming more and more expressionless, he wondered in his mind whether he was really going to reach that point.
This is Taiyuan and Jinyang. It is impossible to call an awakened disciple for nothing and slip away from under your nose.
"All right,"
Wu Ma listened for a long time and finally said: "I didn't intend to compete with you for food.
As for the future, I have to see the Awakening Tower first before talking about it."
Liu Wenjing was overjoyed, but still a little unbelievable.
"Wu Lang-kun, are you agreeing?"
"Actually," Wu Ma picked up the cup and took a sip, "I can't leave, right?"
Liu Wenjing froze on the spot.
"Whether I am dead or alive, I will do whatever it takes," Wu Ma continued, "You must keep me in Taiyuan, right?"
"hehe,"
Liu Wenjing's face was solemn, "Wu Langjun said this, you seriously underestimated Erlang's magnanimity, and also underestimated the openness and aboveboardness in my heart, Mr. Liu."
Wu Ma stood up and walked towards the door of the main hall. The sun reflected on his face, making it bright.
If you have to choose a force to join, any time traveler who is not a historical idiot will choose Li Shimin.
It's just a universally accepted truth that the easier it is to get something, the less likely it is to be cherished.
Love is like this. Money is like this. Rights are like this. People are like this too.
The dancing horse can join the gang, but he cannot get on the pole.
Even if it is a symbolic refusal.
"Then," Wu Ma said, "I'll tell you everything after I see the Awakening Tower."
"Young Dancer will not be disappointed."
Liu Wenjing finally felt at ease. She was thinking about how many points she could add to Tang Gong's credit book through her journey as a lobbyist.
After Yuwen Jianxue, who had been standing aside for a long time, heard this, she walked out with her sword in her arms, wondering in her heart what the master was doing by dragging her over, was it just a clothes rack...
The conversation between the two men in the room was really boring, so she looked at Qingxia who was dancing a sword in a corner of the courtyard.
Last night, Qingxia claimed to be Wu Langjun's cousin.
But Yuwen Jianxue always felt that there was something fishy in this...
