My father has the appearance of an emperor

Chapter 238: Misfortune (Part )

Perhaps out of politeness, Guan Cheng did not refuse to have a meal together.

But he didn't expect Jiang Chen to take food from his plate.

This is Western food, man!
As a professional show-off, Guan Cheng was very disdainful of this.

What made him even more dissatisfied was that the lunch here was so damn bad!

"Hotels nowadays only care about luxury, not taste. Even the dishes are not fresh anymore." Guan Cheng couldn't eat anymore after two bites, but Jiang Chen ate happily.

Jiang Chen was very happy.

Because even though the food was rotten, it was at least better than what he had just had.

What does this mean?
Can it be shared?
So it's neutralized?

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen felt that he had to keep this living treasure no matter what.

He ate his lunch in two or three bites, wiped his mouth and said, "Let's go out for a walk?"

Guan Cheng was also very happy: "Okay."

The rain has stopped. Walking on the rain-washed streets, the air is fresh, and most importantly, there are no reckless cars causing accidents.

Jiang Chen and Guan Cheng strolled leisurely, chatting casually.

"By the way, how did Yuan Qiuye fall out with my dad?"

Guan Cheng smiled and said, "How would I know? But generally speaking, the grudges between the people who received the precepts are mostly related to the chaotic world. For example, if everyone killed a BOSS together, but the benefits were not shared equally, it would be easy to cause rifts."

"Then there's no need to cause trouble for the younger generation."

"Isn't this just a guess? Besides, this isn't a matter of grudges. It's a big deal if it involves the secret of fusion. Grudges mean I have no psychological burden in taking action against you!"

"That's true. Why don't you arrest me and threaten me like you did to my father?"

Guan Cheng smiled: "You want to know secrets from me? I am just a person who does things for others. I don't know your question. But I think some things can be guessed."

Jiang Chen had to bait if he wanted to fish, pretending to be generous: "Well, it involves the intrigues within the upper echelons, it's nothing more than this willingness... At the beginning, they forced my dad, after all, he was a member of the association, it was justifiable. Now that they force the meritorious officials, it's not justifiable, it's not justifiable. It turns out that the Elders' Council still has some dignity?"

He looked like I was surprised.

Guan Cheng was also happy.

He nodded: "Well, I'm glad you understand. In fact, it was your father who was too stubborn at the beginning. It would be fine if he just bowed his head, but he refused and really accepted the task... Alas! Maybe he thinks he will have a day to come out on top."

is it?

Makes sense.

The rules are not impossible to break. Maybe Dad knows how to solve the cost problem of Mixuzhikong, so he dares to do so.

Considering the forbidden pages...it's entirely possible.

"Then why don't you want the secret of my dad's delayed immigration rules?" Jiang Chen suddenly asked.

This question made Guan Cheng pause for a moment.

After a while, he shook his head: "That's not something I can consider. You can ask Boss Yuan. Do you want to see him?"

"If he doesn't want to, he'd better not come to see me." Jiang Chen said casually.

We talked for a long time and walked for a long time, but we didn't see a car hitting us.

This made Jiang Chen a little angry.

No, that's not right. If you do that, I will have to bring people with me every day from now on.

At this moment, another bolt of lightning struck from the sky. It did not hit them, but instead struck the electric pole next to them. Sparks burst out from the pole, and a wire suddenly broke and fell towards Jiang Chen.

finally come!

Jiang Chen actually felt an inexplicable sense of excitement.

But who is Guan Cheng? Seeing this situation, he reacted immediately and hurriedly hid to the side. The key point was that when he hid, he actually pulled Jiang Chen.

brush!
The sparkling wires brushed past their bodies, and Guan Cheng was stunned: "Oh my god, what's going on?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and the light box above his head fell down and hit Guan Cheng and Jiang Chen on the head.

The debris was scattered all over the ground and the two looked at each other.

Before Guan Cheng could figure out what was going on, a thunderbolt suddenly fell from the sky, and this time it really struck the two of them, so fast that the people taking the precepts could not react in time. The two people holding hands fell to the ground with a bang, smoke billowing out of their mouths.

"Shit! Is Death coming?" Guan Cheng rushed out screaming and looked around in horror.

Instead, Jiang Chen stood up as if nothing had happened, looked at his hand, and said with a smile: "You actually helped me just now?"

"Instinct." Guan Cheng answered casually, and saw the passers-by around them looking at them in the same astonishment.

It was so unlucky that the light box was hit and lightning struck it, but the key point was that nothing serious happened.

Jiang Chen walked out of the light box and said slowly, "Where were we talking about just now? Oh, by the way, I don't want to see Boss Yuan."

Guan Cheng straightened his clothes, held up his hair, and tried to comb and smooth it. As a qualified pretender, he had to maintain his demeanor at all times.

Hearing Jiang Chen say this, Guan Cheng was slightly startled, and suddenly realized something. He looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief: "It's not Death, but Hourglass of Doom? Shit, you chose Hourglass of Doom? And you used it?"

After understanding this, Guan Cheng jumped up in anger and said, "You want to share your bad luck with me?"

Jiang Chen spread his hands and said, "You came to see me."

"Fuck you..." Guan Cheng wanted to curse, but then he thought about it and realized that he was the one who took the initiative to find him. Besides, he was not a friend, so why didn't he tell him?
Isn't that only natural?

Pointing at Jiang Chen: "You are so cruel!"

He turned and left.

This guy is in bad luck now, the farther away from him the better.

Jiang Chen was smiling as he watched Guan Cheng leave in a hurry. Just then the phone rang.

Jiang Chen took a look and saw that it was Iris's.

After answering the phone, Elise asked, "How does it feel to be in dire straits?"

"Not bad." Jiang Chen briefly described what happened today.

"That doesn't sound too bad," said Iris.

"Isn't it bad to be hit by cars repeatedly?"

"It depends on who you are, right? It's not so bad for you."

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned: "You mean, bad luck also depends on the person? Because I am a person who has received the precepts, the car accident is not a big problem for me, so it is not a big bad luck?"

"It's possible," Elise replied, "but it may be more than that."

"What do you mean?"

"This is what I think about Guan Cheng. You think Guan Cheng's arrival reminded you that your identity was exposed, which is good luck, but that is your perception. In the perception of most people, an enemy comes to tell you that I have discovered your true identity, which is bad news."

"You mean, in the system's judgment, this is also considered bad luck?"

"Yes. Let me give you an example. For example, if you suddenly have a romantic encounter, but that girl is not the one you want, and you are also a man who is not opposed to romantic encounters, then I would like to ask, is this good luck or bad luck for you?"

"Fuck! Is it that complicated?"

"Answer me, is this good luck or bad luck?"

Jiang Chen scratched his head: "It depends on the appearance, right? And how much do I hate that girl? Is she sick? Has she been caught?"

"You see, that's the problem. Many things are vague, not clear. The good luck or bad luck determined by the system may not be what you think is good or bad. God sent a rainstorm and soaked you like a drowned chicken, but for you, this minimum level of bad luck is actually a good thing. So, considering your mood at the time, is this good luck or bad luck? For example, lightning struck you, but it trained your resistance and may even awaken new abilities. Is this good luck or bad luck?"

This is so philosophical, you've stumped me.

Iris continued, "What I mean is: the system has its own values! Its likes and dislikes may not necessarily be your likes and dislikes. Perhaps in its eyes, everything that can harm you is bad luck, and it does not consider the consequences behind these bad luck. Conversely, everything that can have a beneficial effect on you is good luck, and it does not consider whether you like it or not."

"For example, a wallet. Although I don't want it, it is a blessing of good luck to it?"

"Yes."

"Are you saying that the Chaos Realm System is a machine and cannot think like a human?"

"possible."

"Any more?"

"That depends on your follow-up."
