Throne of Radiance

It was more than a month after I saw Shi Cheng again.

Seeing this little friend reappear alive and kicking, Xue Hao and the others were shocked.

At the same time, they are also very curious.

He was surprised that the other party would come back one day, and also curious why this guy was taken by that mysterious transcendent.

"I've thought about it many times, but I didn't find any outstanding advantages of you. How did you receive the script that was favored by a mysterious master?" Xue Hao complained bluntly, "Could it be Is it because of the advanced stage of Secondary Disease?"

Shi Cheng chuckled: "I didn't accept apprentices. However, I did learn a lot from Teacher Joey." Even though he was only lucky enough to follow the other party for more than a month.

"As for what he sees in me..."

"To be honest, I don't even know myself."

He laughed at himself and made a joke: "Maybe it's because I wash and chop vegetables, clean up the scene and destroy the corpses, and I'm so quick?"

Xue Hao and others: "???!!!"

Seeing the terrified faces of his friends, Shi Cheng hurriedly waved his hands wildly: "Don't take it seriously, I'm just joking."

He didn't want to be handcuffed by the detective department just because he made a fuss, so please go to the small black room for tea.

Although he refused in his heart, Shicheng finally drank the tea from the detective department, although he was invited over politely.After all, how could the Detective Department, who was always watching the situation, not be aware of Shi Cheng's return?

They had so much confusion that they couldn't wait for his answers.

And Shicheng didn't hide it.He had expected that he would be questioned by the Detective Department. Before returning home, he asked Joey what to say and what not to say. The other party's answer was that it didn't matter.

Therefore, time multiplication does not matter.

Compared with the skinny in front of his friends, his attitude was much more serious when faced with inquiries from the Department of Discrepancy:

"Actually, the real situation is..."

When Shi Cheng was in a daze, his memory seemed to return to that day.

That must have been the biggest turning point in his fate——

The moment he wakes up from the illusory dream, the moment he realizes that the current situation is temporarily safe, what immediately surges up in Shi Cheng's heart is neither tension, fear, nor relaxation, joy, but a deep sense of unwillingness. and loss.

The arrival of the mysterious superman Joey seems to make everyone fall into an illusory dream, but how omnipotent the self in the dream is, how weak the self waking up in reality is!

When surrounded by robbers, he could only pin his hopes on the Ji brothers and sisters, An Xiaoxi, and the rescue from the detective department who did not know when to arrive. The only thing he could do was try not to become a hostage and drag their back leg.

This fact is a great stimulus to Shicheng.

In a sense, since he was a child, he firmly believed in the extraordinary side of this world, and he wanted to reveal the real world. He seemed to be an older middle-aged and second-year-old who was addicted to fantasy; but most people who are addicted to fantasy can only fantasize. But he was able to put it into action, learn so many ancient scriptures by himself, and master so much knowledge that he didn't need to master at all... He should be proud of being able to do all this.

The fact is indeed the case, Shicheng has always had a kind of over-secondary thought of "I am different" in his heart.It seems that since he was a child, he has self-confidence and self-esteem far exceeding that of ordinary people, but it is hidden by his incongruous behavior.

But now, the facts show that, instead of being the protagonist who saves everyone at the critical moment, he is still the cannon fodder that drags his legs back.This undoubtedly took a huge blow to his self-esteem and self-confidence, and made him extremely unwilling.

Especially since times have changed...

Extraordinary opportunities come in front of everyone. The Ji Heng Memorial brothers and sisters are the representatives of the lucky ones. Even An Xiaoxi, an ordinary person, performed a wave of "transformation" in front of him on the spot, but he was caught. How can he be reconciled to rejecting him and still being an ordinary mortal!

Going on like this, Shicheng has foreseen his hopeless future...

The moment he woke up from the dream, an extremely strong sense of gap enveloped Shi Cheng's heart, making him almost fall into despair.

Until he saw the back of Joey walking away.

——This is undoubtedly a powerful transcendent beyond imagination.Others only saw the terror of him letting gangsters kill each other without making a fuss, but Shi Cheng saw his strength and mystery.

In the blink of an eye, a thought that he didn't even have time to think about crossed his mind, and the strong obsession that he would never be willing to spend his life in such an ordinary way drove his actions——

He chased it out without hesitation!

He forgot how dangerous the other party was, and also the fact that he had no acquaintance with him, and even temporarily forgot the companions and gangsters who were still in the collection room. His intuition told him that once he missed it, it would be impossible in his life Another chance!

Even in retrospect, Shi Cheng didn't know what he was thinking at the time, but ran out after that person instinctively, and shouted that sentence without hesitation the moment the other person turned around: "——Please You accept me as a disciple!"

After saying this, his mind went blank.

Until he heard another voice above his head.

"Interesting. Are you not afraid?"

He was not angry because of his reckless behavior, but had a tone of curiosity and surprise.There is a show!

In an instant, other emotions were forcibly stripped away by Shi Cheng. Realizing that he really had hope, he suddenly stood up, as if he had been beaten into chicken blood, and entered a kind of "secondary two" that had been complained about by countless acquaintances and friends. model".

"Fear, but that's an emotion only for the weak. The strong have nothing to fear!" He straightened his back and looked at the other party with firm eyes. He must be a passionate young man who is active and full of dreams. At first glance, the teachers all want to The apprentice you accepted?

"...the strong one? You?"

This skeptical tone... Oops, is it because my performance is not sincere enough, not passionate enough, not touching people's hearts enough?No, you must impress Mr. Joey with a more sincere attitude!

"Ahem, true strength comes from the heart. For this day, I have waited for 26 years and honed my mind for 26 years. You must be my destined teacher!"

His eyes lit up and emitted sincere light waves, and he was about to throw himself to the ground: "Please accept me, as long as you need me, I can do anything. Whether it is looking for the lost property, or after you eliminate the current owner of the lost property, the first time Clean up the scene, destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces, you can leave it to me to do trivial things!"

"...You seem to have said something remarkable."

The attitude is loose, and there is indeed a drama!

Shi Chengdun (with a deep face): "Since the delusion has acquired extraordinary power, I still have this mere awareness."

Although it has been seen that there are a lot of dramas at the time, Joey, who doesn't care about these, is not affected by his speech in the second class, let alone digging for his toes.Joey responded flatly:

"If what I know is correct, extraordinary power is not a fantasy to you. Everyone in this country has a chance, right? The road to martial arts cultivation has long been placed at your feet."

"...but it rejected me."

Hearing this, the gloomy and pale young man with long hair finally raised his eyebrows slightly, as if thinking of something.

"Oh, this reminds me of someone." He was surprised for a moment, and murmured, "So, you plan to go another way?"

"No, I have to squeeze in."

Shi Cheng gritted his teeth with a fierce look on his face.The expression didn't look like a determined target, but more like going to a group fight soon.

Joey: "???"

Shi Cheng: "As the saying goes, when you know what you can't do, you do it. The overlord bends his bow, the toad wants to eat swan meat, and breaks through the south wall and smashes a way. This is the awakening of the strong!"

He delivered pretty bad lines with a bloody look on his face.

Is this how "knowing that you can't do it" is used...?

"Huh?" Joey couldn't help showing a little bit of astonishment on his calm face. He let out a short syllable in his throat, and his tone returned to calm, "Then you may have found the wrong person. I'm just a man with no hands. Just art lovers who have the power to bind chickens."

He changed his face in seconds: "No, no, you are the teacher I have been waiting for for many years. It is just martial arts, and it is nothing compared to your strength. I have forgotten all about it now. Since I met you, The power you have is my pursuit!"

So this is the consciousness of your strong man?That's it?That's it?Did it last for 1 minute?Bai Yi in the vest frantically complained.

Joey stared at the young man in front of him for a few seconds, and he could only see the sincerity from his heart. He suddenly smiled slowly: "Your eyes don't look like you have given up martial arts. Do you want to find another way? ? It made me look forward to it."

Shi Cheng was stunned for a moment, and his aura suddenly weakened.

...was, was spotted?

Once he started to feel guilty and embarrassed, his smooth and silky middle two state was punctured like a balloon, and instead his eyes flickered. Shi Cheng felt guilty for a second and said calmly: "Hey, you are really perceptive. I really don't want to give up martial arts , Why do you think that I can't practice martial arts because I don't have enough talent, I'm sure I can find a way... probably, that's the way of thinking, right?"

In other words, even if Joey is really willing to agree to his impulsive and delusional request and give him the opportunity to contact another extraordinary power, he will not give up continuing to try in martial arts.Anyone who knows such an idea will think that he is outrageous, right?

Especially for such a dangerous Transcendent, if he thinks that he looks down on his own path or thinks that he is planning to use him for evil from the beginning, it will be a good end if he is rejected.To make matters worse, I'm afraid he's going to be cold right now?

Shicheng has completely lost hope.

He hung his head.

But Joey's reaction was beyond his expectation.

"Ah, I understand very well." Under the long black hair hanging down, an inexplicable smile suddenly appeared on that gloomy and pale face that looked like something out of an oil painting, "...I don't have any talent at all, but To forcibly walk on an unsuitable path, as a mediocre person who is judged to have no talent, to surpass those so-called talented people, to be recognized, looked up to, and followed by the latecomers... Such thoughts are not difficult to understand at all. "

——Because he himself did just that!

·

[...At the moment of gaining insight into Shi Cheng's thoughts, Joey, who originally regarded this impulsive apprentice as one of the mediocre people looking for extraordinary power and had no interest, suddenly had a glimmer of expectation. ]

[He was slightly moved by this man's obsession with martial arts. ]

[Some people who are rejected by an unsuitable door will directly integrate this door and open a new door.Some people are just going to die, and they have to push open this door anyway, proving that all unsuitable conclusions are wrong.Some people not only want to smash it, but even forcibly twist the door into their own shape. ]

[Pei Hefeng is the first type, Shi Cheng is the second type.Then Joey is undoubtedly the last one. ]

[Obviously without any talent, he was judged to be unable to become an artist at all, but he never had the idea of ​​giving up.Even if he used "creepy ways" to embark on a path of "depression" that was completely out of the mainstream, and even single-handedly destroyed the dreams of many orthodox artists, but in any case, the final result was that he succeeded. ]

[He used his alternative depressive art to extract the title of god that all artists dream of, and even forcibly opened up a new twisted branch on the original road, so that even if those people don’t like it or admit it, they have to Acknowledging, even learning, the art of depressing he created. ]

[……The choice of Shi Chengsi kung fu martial arts may be a top priority in the eyes of others, but it is just right for Joey's appetite.Is this probably the way paranoid sees paranoid differently? ]

[He decides to keep this interesting person by his side for the time being, to see what he can do.If it can meet his expectations, a little advice would be fine. ]

In a place that Shi Cheng couldn't see, the dark puppeteer's diary was flipping, and someone wrote a new script stroke by stroke.

"Well, it fits Joey's personality."

Bai Yi said that he has always followed the vest design.

"...It just so happens that Joey's character is impossible to take the initiative to deal with the authorities and disclose information. Let's use this tool man sent to the door as a bridge to spread some information properly."

"...Letting them investigate by themselves is too slow."

·

At the same time, under Shi Cheng's surprised and delighted eyes, the long-haired youth turned around again, and his voice floated gently.

"It just so happens that I'm not very familiar with the current world. One more person to run errands for me may return the collection faster."

"Let's go. Let me see what you can do."

……

"...In this way, I was fortunate to be temporarily brought by Mr. Joey's side. Although he does not admit that he is my teacher."

Finally, Shicheng shrugged and concluded in one sentence.

The bright lights of the Detective Department shone on his face with a faint reluctance.

"As for the next month or so..."
