The fast travel system always kills me

Chapter 245

Ye Ling nodded after hearing Huzi's words, and Wei Zhi said, "Didn't I just talk about it two days ago?"

Huzi said, "I talked about it two days ago."

Ye Ling: "Two days have passed."

Wei Zhi said: "Tomorrow."

Ye Ling said: "Wei Zhi, you haven't talked about the sword of Damocles you told us that day."

After hearing this, Wei Zhi said, "Did I say it?"

Ye Ling said, "I said it."

Huzi said, "Yes."

Wu Zai also nodded.

Zhang Feng and Liu Fengcheng remained quiet.

Wei Zhi said, "Tomorrow."

Wu Zai asked: "Wei Zhi, what is the Sword of Damocles? Is it the story of a grassland tribe?"

Wei Zhi said: "No."

Wu Zai said: "But these words are very strange to read."

Wei Zhi said, "Yes."

Wu Zai said: "What is the story? It has something to do with the sword? Is it a legendary story or did you hear it, or is this the name of the sword? It does sound like the name of the sword."

"It must be the name of the sword." Huzi said, "But the name is really strange."

Ye Ling and the others also found it strange.

Wei Zhi said: "This is not the name of the sword."

Wu Zai: "What is that?"

Wei Zhi subdued, and then said: "Then I will tell you something."

Huzi and the others nodded happily: "Okay!"

Wei Zhi said: "Dionysius I ruled Syracuse, the richest city in Sicily. He lived in a beautiful palace, which contained countless beautiful and priceless treasures. A large group of attendants were waiting for orders at any time. King Onysius had a friend named Damocles, and he often said to King Dionysius how lucky you are, you have everything people want, and you must be the happiest person in the world."

Wu Zai said: "Wei Zhi, what story is this?"

Dionysius I?Sicily?Syculus?Friend Damocles?
Wu Zai and others didn't understand why.

For the children: "The story of another land."

Wu Zai: "Which piece of land?"

Wei Zhi: "Far away."

Wu Zai: "Far away?"

Wei Zhi said, "Anyway, don't worry about it."

Wu Zai said: "But."

Wei Zhi said: "It's just a legendary story, do you still listen to it? If you don't listen to it, I won't tell it."

Wu Zai and others said: "Listen!"

Wei Zhi continued: "One day, King Dionysius was tired of hearing such words, and he said to Damocles, do you really think I am happier than others, then I am willing to change places with you, so he Let Damocles change his royal robes, wear a golden crown, and sit at the table in the banquet hall. The table is full of delicacies, flowers, fine wines, rare perfumes and moving music. He thinks he is the happiest person in the world."

After hearing this, Hu Zi asked, "Then Damocles was beheaded by Dionysius?"

Wu Zai said: "This man is rude to the king and will definitely be beheaded."

Ye Ling said: "Is the sword that cut off his head called the Damocles sword?"

Hu Zi looked at Ye Ling and said, "A Ling, you are so smart."

Zhang Feng and Liu Fengcheng were silent.

Sweat dripped from the back of Wei Zhi's head. You really think about it. It seemed to make sense. Wei Zhi said, "No, the king didn't chop off his head."

Huzi said: "No? Why?"

Wei Zhi said expressionlessly: "Because Damocles is the king's friend."

Wu Zai said: "The king seems to value this friend very much."

Huzi said: "No! This friend must be a relative of the king! Is he the queen's brother?"

Wei Zhi said: "No."

Wu Zaidao: "That's a high-ranking minister!"

Wei Zhi: "No."

Ye Ling said: "Then why?"

Wei Zhi said: "Are you still listening?"

Wu Zai, Hu Zi and others had no choice but to be quiet, and Wei Zhicai continued: "When Damocles raised his glass, he suddenly found a sharp sword hanging upside down from the ceiling with a horsehair, and the blade of the sword almost pierced the top of his head. , Damocles froze all of a sudden, the happy smile on his face disappeared, his face was pale and his hands trembled, he didn’t want to eat or drink, he just wanted to escape from the palace, as far away as possible.”

Hearing this, Hu Zi and Wu Zai said: "The king still wants to cut off his head!"

Wei Zhi said impatiently, "No."

Huzi said: "Then why?"

Wei Zhi said, "Are you still listening?"

Hu Zi and Wu Zai were silent, and Wei Zhi said: "Seeing Damocles' face, Dionysius asked him what was wrong, and asked him if he was afraid of the sword that might fall at any time. The king said that he saw it every day. It hangs over his head all the time, maybe someone or something will cut the thin thread at any time, maybe some minister covets his power and wants to kill him, someone may spread rumors to turn his subjects against him, maybe a neighboring country The king will send troops to seize his throne, and perhaps his decision-making errors forced him to abdicate."

This time, Huzi and Wu Zai didn't speak again, but Ye Ling asked, "Is it true that the king has a sword hanging from his head?"

I thought Wei Zhi would talk about Ye Ling, but Wei Zhi said: "It's not a real sword."

Huzi and Wu Zai were unhappy.

Why can Ye Ling ask?
Ye Ling nodded and said, "I understand."

Wei Zhi said: "Finally, the king told Damocles that if a person wants to be a ruler, he must take all kinds of risks. Risks always go with power. Besides honor, it turned out that the king had many worries, so he asked the king to return to the throne."

Wu Zai and Hu Zi asked, "It's true that the king didn't cut off his head?"

Wei Zhi said: "No."

Hu Zi said: "If the current emperor, maybe someone will cut off his head."

Wu Zai didn't say anything.

Wei Zhi said: "Don't say these things outside in the future."

Huzi said: "Yes."

At this time, Bronze arrived, bringing with him the fourth prince Zhao Xu. When Zhao Xu saw Wei Zhi, he said, "Wei Zhi, I brought you the wine you asked for."

With that said, the eunuch beside Zhao Xu handed a wine jar to Wei Zhi, who took it and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

In the past few months, Zhao Xu has regarded Wei Zhi as a friend.

Wu Zai and the others looked at Zhao Xu and said nothing. They had never spoken to Zhao Xu.

Bronze said: "Sit down, I have nothing to do today, I will tell you a story."

Huzi and the others responded happily, and Zhao Xu also said happily, "Okay."

Zhao Xu was right next to Wei Zhi, and when he saw Wei Zhi holding the wine jar, he asked, "What do you want this wine for?"

Wei Zhi said, "Cooking."

Zhao Xu: "Huh?"

Wei Zhi said, "Cooking."

Zhao Xu asked: "What dish?"

Wei Zhi said: "I don't know yet."

Sweat dripped from the back of Zhao Xu's head, and Bronze asked, "What story do you want to hear?"

Wu Zai said: "We will listen to whatever you can say."

Ye Ling nodded, but Hu Zi said, "I want to hear the story of the great general!"

Bronze asked, "Where's Wu Zai?"

Wu Zai said: "Anything is fine."

Bronze: "A-Ling?"

Ye Ling said: "I am the same as Wu Zai."

Bronze looked at Zhang Feng: "Where is Zhang Feng?"

Zhang Fengdao: "I am the same as Wu Zai and A Ling."

Bronze looked at Liu Fengcheng again, and Liu Fengcheng said: "I am the same as them."

Bronze nodded and said, "Okay, let's tell a story about a great general first."

Huzi nodded happily.

Wei Zhi said: "Master, why don't you ask me and the Fourth Prince."

Zhao Xu said, "I'm fine."

After hearing this, Bronze said: "Master has forgotten you."

Zhao Xu and Wei Zhi were sweating on the backs of their heads when Qingtong asked, "What do you want to hear?"

Zhao Xu shook his head, Wei Zhi said, "I don't want to hear it."

Zhao Xu, Bronze, Wu Zai and others twitched their mouths.

Bronze said: "Okay, let's talk about the first story first."

Wei Zhi was about to leave with the wine, but Zhao Xu grabbed Wei Zhi, so Wei Zhi looked at Bronze expressionlessly.

Bronze didn't look at Wei Zhi, and said: "Qin Yu was born in a waiter's family. He grew up with rich clothes and fine food, and no one in the capital dared to provoke him. Qin Yu is also very smart. He studied martial arts hard and never slack off. Qin Yu's father is a senior. The Marquis of Zhenguo in the Yan Dynasty, the Qin family has made great military achievements since ancient times, and all their ancestors were generals in the imperial court."

"Qin Yu has always respected his grandfather and father. Qin Yu is bright and forthright. He has many friends. When he was young, he saved the crown prince. He has the best relationship with the crown prince. The emperor also likes Qin Yu very much."

"The emperor wanted to marry the princess to Qin Yu, but Qin Yu tried his best to refuse. Qin Yu believed that a man should make a contribution, and the love of children is not important. Until Qin Yu was 20 years old, he did not marry a wife. Qin Yu's friend They have already married wives and had children, but Qin Yu is still alone."

"The emperor and Qin Yu's parents are very worried about Qin Yu."

"Qin Yu was handsome, so the emperor's daughters liked him very much. Qin Yu met several princesses, but he didn't notice their good intentions. Everyone valued Qin Yu and thought that Qin Yu had an unlimited future. In the future he will definitely be a first-class military commander in the Yan Dynasty."

"Qin Yu even thought so, he believed in himself."

"When Qin Yu was 22 years old, Dayan and Daqi were at war. Qin Yu sent troops according to the order and won a great victory all the way. Everyone admired Qin Yu, even Qin Yu's parents were surprised. A year later, the capital of Daqi After being trampled by Dayan's iron cavalry, Da Qi became Dayan's, the emperor was very happy, Qin Yu's class returned to the court, the emperor held a feast to cleanse the dust, and countless dignitaries visited the Qin family."

"Qin Yu's parents saw Qin Yu come back and thought that Qin Yu had made great achievements and could finally start a family. However, Qin Yu had no such plan. He said that there was still war."

"Qin Yu's parents thought about it, and they didn't know where the war was still going on, so they asked Qin Yu, but when they saw Qin Yu, they brought the map, and almost pissed off their parents. The world is vast, and Qin Yu said that Yan will rule the world in the future and he will consider starting a family, Qin Yu's parents went to the emperor to cry."

"The emperor couldn't do anything about Qin Yu. Troubled times arose again. Qin Yu led his troops and left the capital. Two years later, Qin Yu was ordered to return to the capital. When passing through Yunzhong City, a young man stole the jade pendant. After Qin Yu found out, After chasing after him, I saw that young man took the jade pendant to the pawn shop, and distributed the money in exchange to the beggars."

"Qin Yu looked at him and decided not to pursue the young man. When Qin Yu was about to leave, he found that the young man was a girl. The girl's name was Ye Yao. Qin Yu left, and they met again not long after. Ye Yao is dressed as a girl this time, and he is competing in martial arts to recruit relatives, Qin Yu felt strange, so he stopped to watch."

"Then I found out that Ye Yao's recruitment of relatives in the martial arts competition was fake, and it was true that he lied to money. No one defeated Ye Yao. Ye Yao's martial arts is very good. Qin Yu watched the others leave in disgrace, and suddenly walked towards the martial arts stage. Ye Yao looked at Qin Yu. Yu, but said that the martial arts competition ended here, but Qin Yu didn't let Ye Yao leave. The two fought, and Ye Yao was defeated. In front of the people, Ye Yao didn't say anything. Give Yu a silver coin and let Qin Yu leave."

Ye Ling asked, "Has Qin Yu left?"

Bronze smiled and shook his head, "No."

Wu Zai and the others didn't say anything.

After Bronze finished speaking, he continued: "Qin Yu watched Ye Yao take out the silver, and smiled and told Ye Yao that he didn't want the silver. Ye Yao had already forgotten about Qin Yu, and didn't know that he had taken his jade pendant. , so I decided in my heart that Qin Yu was not a good person, but Ye Yao couldn't beat Qin Yu, but she was clever and ran away with an excuse."

"Seeing that Ye Yao didn't come back, Qin Yu knew that Ye Yao had run away. He smiled and didn't chase after him. After all, his intention was to scare Ye Yao."

"But the enemy's road is narrow, Ye Yao is also going to the capital, Qin Yu is also ordered to return to the capital, so the two met several times on the way, Qin Yu thought Ye Yao was following him, Ye Yao wandered around the rivers and lakes, cheated, cheated After passing by many people, they thought Qin Yu was those people, so the two tacitly pretended not to see each other."

"Qin Yu returned to the capital, and Ye Yao also came to the capital. Ye Yao had only one purpose in the capital, which was to find the whereabouts of his brother, but Ye Yao didn't find his brother, so he was going to continue to venture into the rivers and lakes. Ye Yao was arrested for saving people. Yazi was caught, and then he was bought away, and the person who bought Ye Yao was a powerful person from Dayan, who gave Ye Yao to the crown prince."

After hearing this, Ye Ling asked, "What about Qin Yu?"

Bronze said: "Qin Yu doesn't know."

Ye Ling frowned.

Bronze continued: "The prince looked at Ye Yao and gave Ye Yao to Qin Yu instead. After Qin Yu learned about it, he asked the eunuch to take Ye Yao away, but the eunuch had already run away. Qin Yu was very nervous when he saw Ye Yao. It was surprise, Ye Yao was also surprised, the two were silent for a while, Qin Yu let Ye Yao go, Ye Yao glanced at Qin Yu, and ran away."

"Halfway through the journey, Ye Yao looked at the Qin Mansion. Ye Yao was about to leave the capital, but she felt a little sorry because it was Qin Yu who saved her."

"Ye Yao never owed anyone anything, so he didn't leave the capital in the end. Ye Yao went to the Qin Mansion and found Qin Yu. Qin Yu didn't understand when Ye Yao came back. Ye Yao said he was here to repay his favor. Qin Yu laughed and thought He said no, but seeing the injury on Ye Yao's face and Ye Yao's young age, he asked Ye Yao if he had any parents. government."

"Ye Yao thought about it, but he didn't agree, because Ye Yao didn't trust Qin Yu. Hearing Ye Yao's words, Qin Yu said that he didn't have to pay back. Ye Yao left and came back, saying that he would leave in a year. Qin Yu responded. Ye Yao stayed in the Qin Mansion as a teenager, and a year later, Ye Yao left the Qin Mansion."

"This year, Qin Yu went to the border to quell the chaos. After he returned to the capital, the emperor died, and the crown prince became the emperor. He wanted Qin Yu to take charge of the world's soldiers and horses. The crown prince never thought that Qin Yu would refuse, so seeing Qin Yu After handing over the tiger talisman, Qin Yu was very shocked, took off his armor, and said with a smile that he was going to enter the rivers and lakes."

"The imperial court was greatly shocked. Everyone in the Qin family was shocked, as were the people in the capital. But Qin Yu was determined. No matter what anyone said, Qin Yu had already made up his mind. He bid farewell to his parents and gave instructions to his brothers. , he left the capital with a sword on his back. The prince asked Qin Yu why, and Qin Yu laughed and said he was going to chase someone."

Ye Ling said: "Is Qin Yu going to find Ye Yao?"
