Immortal V4C11: Two problems.
Translated by: RedLotus.
Ten days later, the home of Shui Wuhen, above a floating island, Zhong Shan and Nan Batian were in a small courtyard. There was a stone table in the small courtyard, two jars on the table and two pieces of rubies that resembled bricks, on one side of it, the four characters Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty were written, and on the other side were the characters of the names and the official positions.
Front side: Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty.
Back side: Zhong Shan, third-class Royal Guard.
Front side: Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty.
Back side: Nan Batian, Vanguard Unit Leader.
These two were the official seals of the two people. Looking at these two brick-like official seals, Zhong Shan was speechless in heart. It turned out that everyone in Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty has this kind of seal. It was just that on the back side of the ordinary people the name was floating, and the characters ‘Common people’.
Also this was not an ordinary official seal, but it was a special one, like an ID card, and it was a special Magical Treasure to identify true and false.
The two did not pay attention to their respective official seals, but each of them was holding a jar.
"Batian, from now on we will be holding an official position, and we have to be separated again, so today I will arrange a farewell party for you." Zhong Shan said while holding the jar.
"Ok, you and I are all in the Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty. We will still meet again in the future. Come and drink." Nan Batian picked up the jar and raised it toward Zhong Shan.
"Dāng.”
The jars pumped into each other and the two drunk the wine. This was also the nine spirits ten thousands flowers brewed by Zhong Shan, a kind of spirit wine. But for the sake of Nan Batian, even the best wines have to be taken out.
"I am going to another city to join the army, but you have to stay in Unparalleled City, the third-class Royal Guard, what kind of future can this official position have?" Nan Batian said with a smile.
"Haha, or let's compare and see who have a higher official position when we meet again next time." Zhong Shan laughed and said.
"Ok, let's compare." Nan Batian said with a smile.
"Dāng.” The jars hit each other again and the two drank again.
"Last time you were really aggressive, killing someone, you also forced everyone to stop, I guess, even if Lord Shui did not appear, then Mo Yanbing would not dare to get rid." Nan Batian said with a smile.
"This Clown, why do you have to mention him? You have spoiled the mood, come, let's continue to drink." Zhong Shan held the jar and drunk wine again.
"Ok, I won't mention him again." Nan Batian smiled heartily and said.
"Regardless of what happens in the future, our brotherhood will never change." Zhong Shan said.
"Yes.” Nan Batian also said in a cheerful voice.
Three days later, Nan Batian left Unparalleled City with a group of soldiers, but Zhong Shan and Shui Wuhen stayed.
Stepping on the great blade, he was flying in Unparalleled City along Shui Tianya, it took half an hour before stopping in the air outside a red light curtain.
"Let’s go, you will be serving here from today on." Shui Tianya said.
"Um.” Zhong Shan nodded.
Passing through the red light curtain, there was a huge floating island. The floating island was protected by a large number of royal guards. There were many elegant houses surrounded by rare birds and beasts.
Not far, there were several palaces.
Shui Tianya took Zhong Shan and went straight to the biggest palace not far away.
Serene Incense Hall !
Under Serene Incense Hall, there were some Imperial Guards standing to guard Serene Incense Hall, as if there was a very important person living inside.
Zhong Shan frowned, and followed Shui Tianya.
"Let's go” Shui Tianya said, and stepped into the palace.
Zhong Shan nodded and followed in.
Stepping into the main hall, Zhong Shan saw the interior of the hall completely. In the center, there was a white jade table with a diameter of about ten meters. The table was like a Magical Treasure. There were some light and shadow images of the floating islands, the mountains, the rivers, the city walls and tower above the city gate.
Unparalleled City, that was Unparalleled City, Unparalleled City stereographic projection, it was like the map of the entire Unparalleled City? It looked like a live map.
However, these were not the key. The key was that Zhong Shan saw two acquaintances.
There were three people in the hall. The two are standing on both sides, just like the Imperial Guards. The third person, in front of Zhong Shan, was holding a folding fan and looking at the projected map of Unparalleled City.
Seeing the two Imperial Guards, the pupils of Zhong Shan shrunk, because these two were his acquaintances, Ah Da, Ah Er.
The third person, in front of him, Zhong Shan has a vivid memory of her, she was Princess Qianyou.
Zhong Shan showed a bitter smile and sighed. He was still found by her.
"This small official pays his respect to the princess." Shui Tianya immediately bent his waist over and respectfully said.
"This feudal official, Zhong Shan, pays his respect to the princess." Zhong Shan could only bend over slightly and respectfully said.
Hearing the voices of two people, it seemed to interrupt the train of thoughts of Princess Qianyou, she stopped looking at the map of Unparalleled City, and slowly turned her head around.
Today, princess Qianyou was wearing purple clothes, but it looked liked men’s clothes, holding a paper fan, she seemed incomparably natural. Turning her head, she gave a grateful feeling at a glance.
"Shui Tianya, is this my Royal Guard?" Princess Qianyou looked at Zhong Shan and revealed a hint of an engrossing smile.
"Yes, princess, this is the third-class Royal Guard, Zhong Shan." Shui Tianya said right now.
"Feudal official, Zhong Shan, Princess, Greetings." When Zhong Shan saw that Princess Qianyou was acting dumb, he could only respectfully repeat it again.
"Bold Zhong Shan, seeing the princess, and still have not knelt down?" Ah Da, on the side, suddenly called out.
When he heard Ah Da’s call, Zhong Shan frowned, but Princess Qianyou was smiling, obviously Ah Da was incited by Princess Qianyou.
Shui Tianya, on the side, was slightly stunned and retreated to the side, leaving Zhong Shan alone to face Princess Qianyou.
If it was another person, he would naturally kneel in a situation like this. However, Zhong Shan was not so, as Zhong Shan knew that Princess Qianyou was making fun of him, and that kneeling down was equal to a clear submitting, after all, Shui Tianya did not kneel. Moreover, it would make the other party to look down upon him.
At this time, instead of being led to run in circles by Princess Qianyou, it was better to bring everything to light from the beginning.
"Princess, the feudal official has greatly offended you, but also asking the princess to be broad-minded." Zhong Shan said sincerely.
Looking at Zhong Shan, Princess Qianyou smiled slightly and said: "You finally remembered me."
"Yes, since I was lucky enough to win the treasure nine years ago, Zhong Shan has always been feeling sorry and has never forgotten the princess for nine years." Zhong Shan said.
Regarding Princess Qianyou, Zhong Shan was feeling guilty. After all, Princess Qianyou looked after him, but this kind of guilt was not as exaggerated as what Zhong Shan said, as to the extent of never forgetting.
"Oh, would you also feel sorry? Snort, Zhong Shan, you are bold, no one has ever dared to let me suffer a loss." Princess Qianyou’s expression suddenly changed.
Princess Qianyou was angry, and there was a proud imposing manner in her tone. This was the aura of an absolute Top Position. It was not like the same when Zhong Shan faced Mo Yanbing, but it was an imposing manner that was built for many years to reach the top level. It was an imposing manner that, just by a word, could determine the life and death of millions.
Zhong Shan's heart tightened, but still quickly restored its calmness.
"The matter of the past, Zhong Shan is consciously ashamed to face the princess. If there is a chance, Zhong Shan will certainly compensate the princess for the loss. I hope that the princess will not hold the past matter in heart, and Zhong Shan will try his best to assist the princess." Zhong Shan said in neither arrogant nor servile way.
When she saw that Zhong Shan was still calm under her own imposing manner, Princess Qianyou revealed a hint of joy, in the heart of Princess Qianyou, Zhong Shan was a grass root, a grass root who could be so indifferent and self-conscious under her own momentum, so this person must not be just a normal person. Princess Qianyou was very accurate when she choose people, and seeing Zhong Shan was like this, she naturally was more happy.
TLN: Grass roots are the common people at a local level (as distinguished from the centers of political activity) / the most basic level of an activity or organization.
However, Princess Qianyou knew that if she wanted to use him for herself, she must subdue him first to let him be convinced and only after that she could really use him for herself.
"Oh, compensation? How are you going to compensate? How do you guarantee that you will be able to compensate? If you want me to believe you, you have to come up with enough talent and credibility to make me believe that you have the ability to compensate." Princess Qianyou tapped the paper fan with her fingertips and said with a slight smile.
When he heard the words of Princess Qianyou, Zhong Shan frowned slightly and breathed out in relief. Princess Qianyou was not specifically making things difficult for him, but she was giving him a way to demonstrate his abilities.
"How does the princess want me to prove?" Zhong Shan said solemnly.
At this moment, the princess's identity was suppressing him, and Zhong Shan naturally could only do this.
"I will not embarrass you. When I was at your cultivation base, His Majesty gave me ten problems. I solved eight of them, and did not solve the last two. If you can solve them, I will not go into the past matter again, I will treat you as an honored guest, and also I will call you mister. But if you can’t, then later every time you see me, you have to kneel down before me to salute." Princess Qianyou said that as she moved to the throne in the north.
When Princess Qianyou said that, the faces of Shui Tianya, Ah Da and Ah Er twitched. The three people knew clearly about Princess Qianyou’s wisdom, and also the ten problems from His Majesty? Although they didn't know what they were, but these two problems even Princess Qianyou couldn't not solve them, how could this outsider solve them?
Unconsciously, when the three looked at Zhong Shan, they revealed a sympathetic look.
Zhong Shan frowned, he naturally knew that this was Princess Qianyou creating obstacles for him, His Majesty? Was not he the Master of Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty? His Majesty of Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty?
Zhong Shan was curious about the ten problems that His Majesty had made, but it was obviously a trap in front of him. Would he jump?
"Princess, please say, this small official certainly does his best." Zhong Shan could only jump into this trap. The situation was forced, also Princess Qianyou said that, at that time, her cultivation base was the same as his own, it should be within his own abilities. He just hoped that it was not too difficult.
"Ok.” Princess Qianyou said with a smile.
"Ah Da.” Princess Qianyou called out.
"Yes." Ah Da immediately moved forward. He turned his hand and took out a metal ball of one meter in diameter and a Rise Again Pill. Gently, placed the two things on top of the table where the map projection disappeared.
Zhong Shan frowned slightly, gently moved forward, and examined them carefully.
Rise Again Pill, just the ordinary Rise Again Pill, and the metal ball was very smooth. On the metal ball, there were only two small holes, the diameter of each small hole was only half the size of the little thumb. Looking through the small hole, the interior was completely dark.
"The two problems are these two things." Princess Qianyou said with a smile.
