Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 539 Dinner 5
What is calamity?Opinions vary.But the only thing that is certain is that it is a disaster that practitioners cannot escape.In other words, it itself is an indispensable part of practice.

It is generally recognized in the books that there is a thunder disaster, that is, lightning.This is the most common and dangerous calamity for practitioners.

Of course, the little girl doesn't believe that Zhang Cheng will encounter any thunder disaster.Lightning strikes were scary to ancient people, but they are not difficult to deal with today.Where are there not many lightning rods these days?

But all the legends also admit that thunder calamity is only one of many calamities.

In fact, the concept of "doom" is a concept that has no similarities in many myths and legends in other countries and civilizations.In fact, the concept of "immortal" is unique. People in the Republic know that conferring gods and ascending immortals are two different things.Similarly, the powerful wizard in Western legends can indeed change his life against the sky and live forever, but no one has ever said that in order to live forever, this wizard must survive some kind of disaster from nature, which is the so-called "Heavenly Tribulation".So it's a unique concept.

The little girl can understand this matter very well.After all, after seeing Zhang Cheng's ability, the little girl has gradually compared Zhang Cheng's ability with various myths and legends in the known world.In the end, I felt that Zhang Cheng might really be a fairy.

She was just guessing before.But when Zhang Cheng said the word "immortal" and Zhang Cheng didn't explicitly deny it, the little girl was already five or six points sure.And now, the last missing link has been filled.

She now knew that Zhang Cheng had to cross the tribulation, and if he failed, he would die.

Just like in the legend, if you want to become a fairy, you must go through a catastrophe.Although crossing the catastrophe is not inevitable, it is very difficult.

This theory also fully explains where those ancient immortals have gone - they have all gone to other worlds.Jump out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements, and go happily in various worlds.

Of course, Brother Zhang Cheng is not actually a fairy yet.Because he hasn't passed the doom yet.In other words, only those who have survived the calamity are called immortals. Before that, the correct title was "monk" or "taoist".

Of course Zhang Cheng never wore Taoist robes or read Taoist scriptures - but it didn't matter.His supernatural abilities are the real deal.

"I did guess it earlier." The little girl said.She sighed softly, there is a price for everything.If it takes enough effort upfront, or enough afterward, or more often both.

So brother Zhang Cheng still needs her help.

The dishes on the table have basically been eaten.Although the portions were all small, Zhang Chengzhen didn't move his chopsticks a few times for this meal.

Zhang Cheng read the file again.

"By the way, brother Zhang Cheng, I have something to do. If the emperor ascends the throne, as a vassal of Dr. Kunwu, do you need to do something?"

"This... shouldn't be used?" Zhang Cheng thought for a moment and replied.After all, the real feudal system is called "my vassal's vassal is not my vassal".The vassals of the princes, that is, doctors or scholars, are not the vassals of the Emperor Zhou.

"Hey, brother Zhang Cheng, while you were out," said the little girl. "Doctor Kunwu sent us a letter. The letter asked us to prepare a gift for the emperor. There are two extra words 'cautious' at the bottom of the letter."

"You never told me about this." Zhang Cheng understood immediately.

Dr. Kunwu would not make such a request to Zhang Cheng inexplicably. How could Dr. Kunwu not understand the principle of "my vassal's vassal is not my vassal"?In the final analysis, it is because Zhang Cheng's title of "Border Town Doctor" is a bit floating.Because the border town is not the legal territory of Dr. Kunwu.

The doctor of Biancheng is theoretically the direct vassal of Emperor Zhou, not the vassal of Doctor Kunwu (that is, Xu Nan).The two are neighbors, equal colleagues, not subordinates.

However, due to objective factors such as the dog army's rebellion, the death of the former border town doctor, and other objective factors, this territory fell under the control of Doctor Kunwu.

So don't look at Zhang Cheng as the emperor now, but in fact his status is not so secure.Under the feudal system, his position was less secure.If Zhou Tianzi didn't agree, then this "Border Town Doctor" would not be justified.

Tsk... quite a troublesome thing.

"I put it on the desk, didn't you see it?" The little girl looked at Zhang Cheng. "And it's not difficult for us!"

"It's a little troublesome. I can't just give away any precious things." Zhang Cheng could guess how embarrassing the future Zhou Tianzi or Zhou Pingwang would be.It is estimated that this enthronement ceremony will be very difficult.This is why although he has been recognized by Houji, he has not officially ascended to the position of emperor until now.

Because in the enthronement ceremony, the emperor must sacrifice to Haotian, and by the way, sacrifice to the gods.In this way, it was recognized by Haotian and the gods.

The effect of offering sacrifices to Haotian is unknown, but the cost of offering sacrifices is real.These sacrifices are all particular, have rules, and have requirements.It's not that you can reduce it if you want to.

For the current Zhou Pingwang and Zhou Xiewang, this is a very difficult matter.That's why they've been delaying their coronation ceremonies.

In a sense, even wars are temporarily stopped for this matter.After all, the accession of the emperor to the throne is as important as the expulsion of the dog army, or even more important.

If Zhang Cheng sent something good, maybe King Ping of Zhou would feel that it was lucrative and wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail more, then it would be difficult.

Because Zhou Tianzi did have the power to take back the territory of the border town.Even Dr. Kunwu cannot resist this legal power.

What's worse is that if he got hotheaded and sent some messenger over to recognize Zhang Cheng as a stranger, then the matter would be really serious.

In the past, Zhang Cheng had always been cautious, for fear that Dr. Kunwu or others would recognize him as a different person.But now he is not afraid.Now if you come over like a cat or a dog and say that Zhang Cheng is a stranger, Zhang Cheng can ignore him at all, or even kill him directly.Anyway, he is the emperor of the earth, and ordinary accusations are completely useless against him.There will be a drama of "who in the court will sue this official".There is nothing to be afraid of.

But if it was an envoy from the Son of Heaven or something, then things would be completely different.

After all, in that world, "foreigners" are not welcome.From the gods to the nobles, they don't like strangers.It's not a targeted pursuit, but killing these troublemakers from other worlds is a matter of righteousness, and it is encouraged and supported by the gods.

"If it's an ordinary gift, it's definitely not acceptable," said the little girl. "Therefore, there is a simple principle. The first is that it is high-grade and rare enough to be a gift for the Emperor Zhou. Second, there should be no element of showing off wealth, otherwise it will be bad if it attracts covetousness."

Under the management of the little girl, this small territory has developed very well.If she was taken away by Emperor Zhou, the little girl would not be willing to bear it.

"These two conditions... contradict each other," Zhang Cheng said.

"A few hundred yuan should be about the same." The little girl said. "Let's go and buy a pair of pet cats and a pair of pet dogs. I know the pet market here. Take it to that world."

Zhang Cheng was able to put large animals such as bears and tigers into the talisman, and it was not easier for mere cats and puppies.

Zhang Cheng hesitated for a while, and then applauded.This is indeed a good idea.It is precious and decent, and will not cause coveting.

"Also, brother Zhang Cheng, your robbery... how long do you have to prepare for the dangerous thing you are about to do?"

"There's no rush for this." Zhang Cheng said.After all, there are still a few bits and pieces that have not been completed.Ao Guang has not yet completely got rid of the targeted spell. In the future, he must communicate the detailed battle plan with Taiyin Xingjun (now he only agrees in principle), and he must also prepare for the mercenaries on Earth.

In addition, Gong Bo's affairs must also be handled well.

In this battle to seize the priesthood, Gong Bo is now Zhang Cheng's indispensable help and key.After all, the undead creatures (and the Bone Fortress) are almost all under Gong Bo's control.And if you want to keep Gong Bo's loyalty, you have to solve Gong Bo's constant heart disease—that is, the Gong clan members.

This matter was promised by Zhang Cheng to Gong Bo, and it must be resolved before this battle.

In short, there are quite a lot of messy things, and these have to be dealt with before the war.

"Then let's go to the pet market together tomorrow?"

"Is it okay for you not to go to school?"

"What's the problem! Brother Zhang Cheng, don't underestimate me. These courses in the university here don't take much of my time at all." The little girl said proudly. "I helped my tutor complete a high-quality thesis. Now in college, the tutor never considers my class hours."

"Which tutor?"

"Two!" said the little girl. "One article per person. There has been a major breakthrough in the study of ancient languages ​​and characters."

For the little girl now, these are not difficult at all.She has enough experience in learning unfamiliar languages ​​(and multiple languages) in a different world as a confidence, and by the way, she has the "language proficiency" necklace as a plug-in.For things like language and writing, if there is no medium, there is no way to get in.If you are not a great talent, you will not be able to decipher it without painstaking efforts.But if there is a foundation, it will be wise in hindsight, and everyone will take it for granted.

"And those classmates..." The little girl remembered what happened before. "I used to think it would be nice to live in a girls' dormitory, but now I don't think so at all."

Zhang Cheng nodded without asking.In fact, looking at the situation of the little girl, it is common to be envied by everyone.

"By the way, brother Zhang Cheng, your talisman..." said the little girl. "Any other ideas?"

"What other ideas?" Zhang Cheng was curious.

"For example, the African army ant, which is said in the book to be a carnivorous ant that dares to attack any animal, is very dangerous. Another example is the Asian hornet, which is known as the most poisonous wasp. Or, the water in a reservoir! " said the little girl. "These things are fragile and easy to target, but sometimes they can be very useful. The most important thing is that there are many of these things and they are not difficult to obtain."

"This is indeed a way of thinking." Zhang Cheng replied after thinking for a while. "But getting these is hard."

"It's not difficult if you have money. Just leave it to me! But there's another thing...do you still remember our plan?" the little girl asked. "We can just go out and collect these things."

"Plan?" Zhang Cheng couldn't think of it for a while.

"It's to go to Europe to attend the magical party!" The little girl said eagerly. "You promised me. The time is almost up, only twenty days away. Shall we go and see?"

The little girl had an invitation card for a party in the magic world seized from the dark wizard.She is full of curiosity about the magic of this world.

But she can also see that Zhang Cheng and these magicians are not on the same path, so there should be no connection between them.

But if the little girl went to that party by herself, she would not dare.

Last time, the black wizard named Mike showed great abilities.If there are three or five casters of this strength... the little girl doesn't have the confidence to protect herself.Of course it's different when Zhang Cheng is around.

Zhang Cheng is already an existence who is ready to cross the catastrophe and become an immortal, so it is definitely not difficult to deal with these magicians.

Besides, um, think about it, a foreign trip for a single man and a widow...you know it's very suitable when you think about it!
"Okay." Zhang Cheng was actually a little curious about this matter.Not to mention him, I guess Ao Guang and Xiaoxiong are also very curious.

This is a world without demons and spellcasters in theory, but I really don't know how supernatural abilities are passed down.

"That's it, can I take this material with me?" Zhang Cheng asked.

The little girl was obviously stunned for a moment. "Yes, but brother Zhang Cheng, I printed this with special ink. After half an hour, the handwriting will become blurred. After a day or two, it will probably turn into blank paper. If you really need it, I can send it to you on my phone."

"Forget it." Zhang Cheng replied.The little girl really has many ways to keep secrets.But Zhang Cheng does not reject the little girl's cautious attitude.On the contrary, I feel that this is really necessary.

In fact, he had already felt that the little girl was really dancing on the eggs.The benefits are great, but the risks are also really great.

"I'll pay the bill." Zhang Cheng left, and the little girl took out her tablet from her backpack.

"Sister Shen Xiaojiu, come and pick me up." She sighed and typed a line in the chat software, and then sent her address.Without waiting for the other party to answer, he immediately changed a contact person.

"Heidi, are you there?" Fortunately, the other party happened to be online and immediately replied with a smiling profile picture.

"Remember that exclusive makeup artist?" the little girl asked.The other party replied with a question mark.It seems that I don't understand what's going on.

"Let her go!" the little girl banged on the keyboard viciously. "What's the 'Wild Charm' perfume she recommended me to use, 10,000+ knives a bottle, saying that as long as you are a man, you will be tempted, but in fact it is useless at all!"
