Almighty Alchemist

Vol 2 Chapter 22: duel

On the open-air platform of the Lanya Grand Theater, Xiu Yi stood opposite a group of aristocratic men and women.

The moment he said this, the aristocratic youth in front of him was a little dissatisfied: "Are you questioning the lord's ability?"

Xiu Yi answered with a smile: "No, sir, I am very clear about the power of the Lord Lord. The sixth-level space teacher and the fourth-level water practice, even a star warrior can hardly say to defeat such a character. But I know that force is not everything, even magical magic cannot make anyone do whatever they want, otherwise there will be no crime in this world, and the person sitting on the throne of the emperor does not need to be Strick Your Majesty. "

The aristocratic young man was choked by Xiu Yi's words, and he could even hear the pouting smirk beside the beauty. This made him extremely dissatisfied:

"But anyway, as long as that Huy Glare dares to show up, his result must be captured. He is like a rat in a trench, which makes everyone restless for him. If he dares to appear in In front of me, I swear I will cut his feet with this sword. "

The aristocratic young man proudly patted the magic sword at his waist.

His "speaking words" attracted his companion, and another young brown man echoed: "Yes. If Shuigler dares to appear in front of me, I will surely catch him. I will take him by Skull to Lord Lord, then use the empire's bounty to buy the most beautiful gem, the emerald heart, and give it to Mrs. Kristin, and set it on your necklace. Only your beauty is worthy of value Ten thousand King Witt's treasures. "

"Oh, that's exactly what I want to say." The young man in a silver bow tie called quickly. Obviously, he was deeply dissatisfied with his compliment who had snatched his compliment.

It can be seen that this topic has attracted many people's attention.

A large group of young aristocrats have "sacrifice their enemies", saying that as long as Shuiglare dared to appear, he must be captured on the spot and to prove their bravery to their favorite ladies.

And the object of their flattering is the beautiful lady called Mrs. Christine who is holding a wine glass and is curiously looking at herself.

Until now, she hadn't said a word. When it came to Xiuyi, some rumors of the name Christine were faintly remembered.

He heard that a wealthy widow from the Lance Empire had once made the emperor once tempted by her and tried to marry her, but he failed. That widow seems to be named Kristin. Is that Kristin the glamorous and charming lady in front of all men?

Unexpectedly, Kristin was not satisfied with the compliments of the flattering man around him, but instead frowned, and seemed very dissatisfied.

Xiu finally couldn't help but said, "Excuse me, I don't think it would be good for her to send a jewel worth 10,000 Jinweit to this lady."

The crowd looked at Xiu in surprise, even the lady named Kristin opened her eyes and looked at Xiuyi.

The young brown man was a little annoyed: "Are you trying to say that Mrs. Christine is not worthy?"

"This sentence against you, I'm going to give you a duel!" The youth in the silver bow tie was ready to pull out his white gloves.

As long as he threw the white gloves beside Xiu Yi, Xiu Yi would either choose to accept the duel or leave slumped.

At that time, the lady Christine, who was surrounded by the stars like a moon, suddenly said, "Why don't everyone listen to this gentleman's reasons before making a decision? Xian Zhe said, impulsively It will only lead to the wrong decision. "

Then the glamorous lady looked at Xiuyi with her full of wonderful eyes: "I don't think you meant that, did you? Although you are very young, you can see that you are not a person without a word. You have a mysterious temperament on me, and I can feel that you must be a person who has had many interesting experiences. "

"Mrs. has won a prize. In fact, I just want to say that true beauty does not need any ornaments to set off. Hanging gems on your body will only hide your own luster behind those gorgeous ornaments. It is like real Oil painting, you never have to care about the exquisite frame, too delicate frame, but the painting loses its true color. If the lady wears a gem necklace like this, I can hardly imagine that when people pay more attention to your gems, or Follow you more. "Xiu Yi answered.

It turned out that everyone realized suddenly.

Kristin smiled softly, and Xiu's words obviously spoke to her heart. Looking at the nobles on the entire platform, she has the fewest ornaments, but the men around her are the most. She is a woman who knows how to show herself. In her opinion, the role of those luxurious accessories should be used to reflect the beauty of women, not to make the noise.

Between wealth and beauty, she values ​​the latter more.

Those women who think they can make themselves more beautiful by stacking messy ornaments on their bodies are undoubtedly stupid. They don't know how to wield their strengths, even if it is a string of the most common beads, as long as it fits I am more meaningful than the worth of accessories.

Everyone looked at Xiu Yi at the same time. This boy was obviously very knowledgeable. Although he was young, he was gentle and elegant, personable, and very organized. Many nobles who don't know the bottom line think that this is an elite character cultivated by another family.

The brown young man was unconvinced: "This is an excuse for civilians. They can use this reason to gain the hearts of girls without spending a penny."

A large group of aristocratic youths followed and laughed.

Xiu smiled, "You're right, sir. But I don't think civilians will at least use a fugitive fugitive to prove their loyalty to love. It's worthwhile to say that it's good 10,000 Kimvits, I would like to know if you will never catch him, will you be in a financially embarrassing situation like the civilians? Maybe I can describe your statement in a more direct language: just call Draw bread to hunger. "

"Do you dare to insult me?" The brown youth cried.

Xiu said with a smile: "I don't think it is an insult. Maybe you think you are great, but in my eyes you are not more valuable than a fugitive. Ten thousand King Witt ... I believe the Reims Empire at least It wo n’t be for you. "

This sentence is obviously to degrade the other party to the point where even the fugitive is not as good, and everyone looks at the brown youth at the same time.

Angered by the youth of Xiu Yi's reasoning, he quickly took out his white gloves and threw it in front of Xiu: "I, Viscount Morel, to you in the name of beautiful Christine Raise a duel! "

In Fengming Da 6, the most lacking legends and stories may be about duels.

As long as you are willing, you can hear about the duel between two nobles for some thing or some quarrel. Once the duel starts, both sides can openly kill each other without considering any legal consequences. The family that failed the duel had no right to report to the winner.

It seems that women can easily become the source of all scourges. In just a few minutes, two men have been preparing or have made a duel request to Xiuyi.

This makes Xi a little funny.

He looked at the white gloves on the ground. He knew that as long as he picked up the white gloves, he was officially accepting the opponent's request for a duel.

In my ear was a melodious sound, Xiu Yi knew that it was time for the Violet Song and Dance Troupe to open.

Xiuyi ignored the anger of the opponent and the white gloves on the ground, walked in front of the crystal curtain wall, and looked at the stage below.

In the timbre of the brass, the stage curtain slowly opened. The first scene on the stage is the horrifying background atmosphere:

The towering walls of the palace are guards guarding the sword. On one side of the stage is a large gong gleaming with cold light, and on the other side is a row of wooden stakes with a dozen or so distorted heads hanging from it. A crowd of people gathered there, seemingly waiting for something.

Finally, a minister came out, he solemnly declared: "People in the capital, listen carefully: The distinguished princess Turandot has issued three riddles to summon horses. Anyone who wants to apply can come to guess the riddle But if he can't guess, he will be killed! "

The show started.

Xiu Yi's tight lips looking at the stage finally showed a line of smile.

His apathy and disregard further angered the young brown man.

He shouted to Xiu Yi's back: "Are you afraid? Guys who are afraid of death, if you are afraid, immediately apologize to my friends and me, and I can consider taking back my duel request."

At this moment, the aristocratic young man was proud and proud like a supreme king. He looked at the beauty of Christine next to him, full of confidence.

Xiu's eyes looked at the stage outside the crystal curtain wall and watched the performance on the stage for a while. After confirming that the girls were in good condition, he slowly turned around and said to the aristocratic youth: "I have such a duel There is no interest in the invitation, so I reject your request. "

There was a buzzing noise among the masses, and people looked at Xiuyi with disdainful eyes.

Rejecting a duel request from a nobleman has always been regarded as a cowardly performance in the high society. Many aristocratic youths often face death duel to the public, and often accept the duel.

There are really very few people like Xiu Yi who refuse to duel. So at this moment even the most beautiful Christine frowned.

This was the first time that someone had flagrantly refused a duel in front of her. Although in private she often thinks that duel is one of the stupidest behaviors of men, when she saw someone refused at this moment, she still felt very uncomfortable.

Maybe every woman is like this, they are happy to see men jealous of themselves, and even fight.

The young brown man laughed proudly: "Now that you have admitted that you are a coward, apologize to me!"

Xiu Yi shook his head slightly: "I think you misunderstood what I meant. I refused your invitation to duel not because I was afraid of you, but because it was really unnecessary."

"No need? A duel for glory and dignity, why isn't it necessary?" The young man shouted.

A mocking smile appeared on Xiu Yi's face:

"For glory and dignity? Lord Viscount Morel, that may be your lifelong pursuit, but unfortunately, not my pursuit."

Then, he walked back to the middle of the field and looked at the people who looked around at him. He said loudly:

"I know you were born in an affluent family. You have nothing to worry about. You can never imagine how hard the outside world is. You have never struggled on the true line of life and death, so you never know life. Valuable, do not know the true meaning. Because you do not understand the truth, you are naive to represent dignity and glory can represent everything, one can even fight for dignity and glory, just for some insulting words or to win someone The beauty is at the expense of their own life. This is a typical idealistic approach, and it is an irresponsibility for life. "

"Different from you, I am not from a large noble family. The place where I once lived can be said to be the darkest bottom of the world. Even in the slums, it is much stronger than that. I In the shadows I face every day, I must work hard and shame my knees in order to win a little qualification to live. I must smile at the people who persecuted me and give them the sweetest lies in order to make my life a little bit Better. Dignity and glory ... Oh, that's never what I seek. If I pursue them, then I can't stand here and talk to you at all. "

"So, I know the value of life. I know how hard life and freedom come. I will never fight for that glorious glory and dignity, because I know how to cherish life. You, the upper nobles , Seeing life as a child's play, but sorry, that's not my style. "

"If I want to pick up a weapon, I'm not for ridiculous dignity, glory, or someone who doesn't love me. The moment when I pick up a weapon, it usually means that I have the confidence and grasp to defeat my opponent. To me, it's not dueling, it's killing. "

"So, if you want to fight with me, then you have to be mentally prepared. I mean ... the real ... faced consciousness."

This remark made everyone confused, nobody noticed that while Xiu Yi was talking, his people were also slowly approaching the young brown man.

Just when Viscount Morrell was aware that Xiu was too close to himself, Xiu suddenly flew forward, holding his opponent's throat in his left hand, picking up a table knife from the table with his right hand, and inserting it into Viscount's eyes. Go on.

"Ah!" A series of screams sounded.

The knife stopped on Viscount Morel's eyelids.

"Let him go!" Many people yelled at the same time, and several samurai rushed here, trying to pull away Xiu Yi, who had seriously threatened the life of the other party.

Xiu Yi said coldly: "Who dares to approach me, I will poke his eyes blind."

Everyone stopped at the same time.

Xiu looked at the horrified Viscount Morrel with a playful look: "Now, apologize to me."

"No!" Viscount Morrel yelled.

The knife that was pressed on the eyelids was slightly hardened. Viscount's eyes clearly felt that the pressure above was seriously pressing his eyes. His other eye could read the hidden meaning from Xiu Yi's cold smile: he Absolutely happy to cut off my eyes without fear.

"I'll give you one last chance! Apologies to me." He said.

"I apologize!" Morrel shouted completely without thinking, and he was shaking with horror.

Damn, this guy is a devil!

Xiu Yi smiled with satisfaction on his face. He released his left hand holding Moral's throat, patted his face, and said softly, "Look, just one eyeball can make you look down. So when How do you behave when you face the real? You don't look as brave as you think? "

This sentence dealt a heavy blow to the Viscount Moral, who always thought it would be a glorious thing to fight for his glory. But at this moment when the danger was really pressing on his head, he realized that he didn't want to be as fearless as he imagined.

The young man in front of him ruthlessly exposed his self-righteous strength, just a few words plus an ordinary table knife.

He completely destroyed the will of the Viscount, and he was about to collapse.

Looking at the other person's horrified face, Xiu Yi then said: "Very well, at least now you have learned to give up dignity and glory in front of you, and learned to survive is the first priority. You have realized that all you The things you seek are actually so ridiculous. When you have this understanding, maybe one day in the future, when you really face the threat, you will have the courage to face all suffering. "

As he said, he gently pushed Viscount Morel away and threw the knife aside.

Then he bent down and picked up the white gloves that Viscount Moral had dropped.
