Chapter 20 Six years of growth·Part 1
The wind blows in the daytime, and the scenery flows westward. The prosperous times will never come again, and I will disappear after a hundred years.
——Cao Zhi's "Honghou Yin"
…
six years later.
Tiandou Empire.
Tiandou City.
In the backyard of the Prince's Mansion, there is a viewing pavilion.
It was almost noon, the sun was falling from the sky, passing through the hollows on the eaves of the pavilion, and shining on a simple wooden chessboard with black and white chess pieces scattered in an orderly manner.
Beside the chessboard, two men sat opposite each other.
The black-haired young man is sitting on one side of the chessboard. His deep eyes are shining with thinking. His short black hair is swaying gently in the breeze. He looks mysterious and calm. He is confidently waiting for the young man opposite to move. Next step.
The blond young man sat opposite, his dazzling blond hair shining in the sun like an angel, sacred and solemn. He is smiling, his eyes reveal a kind of stability and confidence, and his every move exudes strong charisma. But at this moment, he frowned, thinking hard about how to find a way out among the murderous intent.
The atmosphere between the two was tense and harmonious, and every move was accompanied by a slight sound, echoing in the quiet air.
"Alas, I lost again. Brother Wu Tong's chess skills are still so superb. The Othello you invented is really not simple. I have been trying to figure it out for so long, but I am just getting started." After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't find how to break the game. The blond The young man sighed and chose to admit defeat.
"Brother Xue is overrated. Your chess skills are already very strong, but you are just not familiar with the rules now. When you are familiar with the rules, you may be able to surpass me." The black-haired young man, Wu Tong, said modestly.
The blond young man whom Wu Tong calls Brother Xue is actually Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire, one of the two major empires today.
She is also the saint of Wuhun Palace, one of the three ultimate Douluo, the granddaughter of the Invincible Qian Daoliu, and the daughter of Pope Bibi Dong of Wuhun Palace, Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue looked at Wu Tong in front of her, feeling a little dazed in her heart. Even after six years, she was still very grateful for the recruitment at that time. The young man who caused a sensation among major forces in the past has now grown up and become a A truly world-famous wise man.
When Wu Tong saw Qian Renxue's eyes blurred, he knew that she was distracted again. He shook his head, picked up the teacup next to him, brought it to his mouth, and took a sip. Well, yes, it is indeed the tea that the prince drinks. It is really good tea, but why does it taste so much like the tea from his Wutong Garden?
Just when Wu Tong was confused, Qian Renxue had come to her senses, looked at Wu Tong and said with a smile.
"Master Wu Tong, your reputation is now known to the world. What are you going to do next?"
"Brother Xue, I have told you several times not to call me master. This title easily reminds me of another 'master'."
Wu Tong said helplessly to Qian Renxue. Now he finally felt the pain of his chubby classmate.
"The next step is to help Mr. Dugu get rid of the poison in their family. He has come to me several times."
Wu Tong thought for a while and said with a tone that seemed a little helpless.
"That's right. After all, Senior Poison Douluo has come to find you almost five or six times. If you don't help, I'm afraid he will start acting rogue again."
After Qian Renxue heard this, she was not surprised. After all, anyone who knew the young man in front of her would know his quirks, which was that he would never touch the second thing before finishing one thing.
Dugu Bo was unlucky. Every time he came, Wu Tong had unfinished tasks.
Dugu Bo had no choice. He had tried everything he could and couldn't, but he still couldn't solve the poison in his family. So now the most likely way to succeed is to get Wu Tong's help.
But Dugu Bo did not dare to threaten Wu Tong. After all, if Wu Tong suffered any losses, there would be no place for him in the entire Douluo Continent. After all, almost everyone in the Douluo Continent had received favors from Wu Tong.
Although Dugu Bo is not afraid of these people, he cannot care less about Dugu Yan's safety. What can we do? We can't fight, we can only act rogue. In this way, every time Dugu Bo comes to Wu Tong, he always behaves and wallows. He doesn't look like a titled Douluo. As time goes by, Wu Tong gets annoyed and has some headaches.
As for doubting whether Wu Tong can solve the poison that Dugu Bo, a Poison Douluo, is helpless to deal with?
Qian Renxue just wanted to say that those who doubted really knew nothing about Wu Tong.
Who is Wu Tong?
Douluo Continent recognizes him as the wisest man in the world, a famous master of martial arts research, and a medicine sage.
Even his teacher Ning Fengzhi, who has a higher eye than his parents, also praised Wu Tong: "Whoever wins Wu Tong will win the world."
Just when Qian Renxue was about to continue speaking, a guard suddenly appeared behind Qian Renxue and possessed her and said something to her.
Then Qian Renxue's eyes suddenly widened, as if something incredible had happened.
"Brother Wu Tong, I am suddenly in a hurry, so I will leave first. Brother Wu Tong, please help yourself."
After Qian Renxue finished speaking, she hurried away.
Wu Tong looked at the other party's leaving figure, confused and a little dazed at the same time.
Has it been…six years?
For Wu Tong, these six years were enough to experience a lot.
After buying the soul tool, Wu Tong originally planned to continue living in Notting College. After Wu Tu and the others came back, they learned from Wu Tu and the others that Mu Lan's martial soul was as strengthened as he expected.
This news made Wu Tong very excited. Although he thought there was no problem with his theory, just like data verification, one success did not mean anything. Only successful data verification multiple times could prove that the conclusion was correct. Wu Tong, who was almost certain that his theory was successful, was naturally itchy and tried to compile a martial soul evolution theory.
After spending several months compiling it, I planned to release it after graduation, using it as capital to gain the right to speak for myself in the future.
But what was unexpected was that when Wu Tong was taking a break, he did not put away his theory, and was seen by Principal Charles who came to talk to Wu Tong.
After reading it, Principal Charles felt astonished and thought that Wu Tong could be like his good friend Yu Xiaogang. Even if he has lost his martial spirit, he can still become a scholar who studies martial arts.
So Charles, who was overly excited, sent Wu Tong's theory directly to Wuhun Monthly, a newspaper that could spread the news to the mainland, preparing to help his students gain fame.
The reviewers of Wuhun Monthly did not pay attention. After all, there are countless people who want to be famous. After reading the title, they were amused and thought it should be a fantasy story, so they directly registered it in the children's book section of Wuhun Monthly. Published.
It can be said that people who read this theory became interested in Wu Tong, a theoretical researcher, just like a bloodthirsty shark suddenly smelling blood.
After Wu Tong learned about it, he had no choice but to end his Taoist career early and join a big force to seek asylum. There are only three people who can protect Wu Tong: Wuhun Palace, Tiandou Empire and Xingluo Empire.
There is Pope Bibi Dong in the Wuhun Hall. As Yu Xiaogang's old lover, there is a high possibility that he will be displeased with him. After all, his theory may hit the master Yu Xiaogang. This person can do it for Yu Xiaogang. People who have just destroyed the world, so in order to avoid being stabbed eight times behind their backs and being forced to commit suicide, they must not go to the Spirit Hall.
In the Star Luo Empire, force is supreme, the law of the jungle prevails, the weak eat the strong, and the fittest survive. Wu Tong, who has no strength, will definitely not be taken seriously if he goes, so he cannot go.
Of the three forces that can protect him, two cannot go. Then the only place left to go is the Tiandou Empire.
Because they were the closest, people from the Tiandou Empire came the fastest. The person who came to recruit him from the Tiandou Empire was Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire who was very interested in Wu Tong after reading Wu Tong's theory.
Now Wu Tong made a decision directly. After all, the "Xue Qinghe" in front of him was not only the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire, but also the saint Qian Renxue of the Wuhun Palace.
As long as he accepts Qian Renxue's solicitation, he can not only gain protection from the Tiandou Empire, but also directly enter the upper echelons of the Spirit Hall, achieving his original goal along the way.
