One of the Twelve Kingdoms

Joshya's first attempt to return home ends in failure.

It seems that it is still necessary to create that whirlpool-like passage through Gong Qi.

Joshua lay on the window looking at the clear sky which was different from England, the air was so fresh and cool that he sneezed.He began to miss London's always gloomy and rainy weather. God knows how much he used to hate rainy days, but now even the bulldog next door who scrapped several pairs of his pants thinks it's cute.If the calculations are correct, this is the third day of his disappearance, and God, Mom will definitely kill him.

He couldn't help sighing, and then remembered the culprit of all this, Yan Qi.Speaking of which, such a tall guy was dizzy with blood, I'm really sorry for his stature.Joshua was so surprised by the change of the situation that he almost lost his temper. He turned his eyes, and through the open door of the palace, he could see the Hall of Renzhong and the palace of Yanqi facing each other across the garden.

Maybe we should go see him?Joshua touched his tightly bandaged neck, and immediately shook off the thought, forget it, this appearance is too embarrassing.And I don't know why he secretly despises and feels guilty at the same time.Hell, did he end up in Stockholm so easily?

When Joshua was trapped in the palace at a loss, Yan Qi was also trying to change the mind of the new king.

Phoenix travels to and from Yunshan Mountain, and Aoshuang Mountain in early summer welcomes two distinguished guests.

Joshua was surrounded by maids early in the morning, put on Chinese clothes, and was moving from one palace to another. The exquisite and luxurious palace made him lose his way for a while, and finally stopped. Zhang Zhuhong's seat was facing the gate, and the tables and chairs on both sides were neatly arranged, with some red and green fruits placed on it. Joshua guessed that this place was probably a living room or something.

Yan Qi's cold voice came from afar, and the words were polite and respectful: "I'm very sorry to ask Mr. King Jing to put aside the state affairs and go on this trip in person. King Jing is well versed in the way of governing the country, and he is also the youngest king who was born with a fetus. , Yan Qi really can't think of a better candidate."

A calm and gentle female voice replied: "It's nothing, Jing Qi and I were supposed to come to visit and congratulate King Gong before he ascended the throne. When we came, the number of monsters on the border of Qiao Kingdom had decreased a lot."

They had already reached the main entrance while they were talking, and it was only then that Joshua realized that there were three of them.The woman who spoke had a very heroic face, her temperament was closer to that of a man, her eyes were resolute and restrained, her red hair, blue eyes and slightly dark skin, such a combination of bright colors formed a strong contrast with the dull and pale blond man beside him. Compared.That man looks very similar to Yan Qi, his hair almost reaches the ground, but his hair color is lighter, his eyes are very strange lavender, he and Yan Qi really exude the breath of brothers eight hundred miles away .

"My lord." Yan Qi came to his side in two or three steps, and then bowed slightly to the other two: "This is King Jing and Jing Taifu. This is King Yan."

"Hi, I'm Joshua." The woman looked about fifteen or sixteen years old at a closer look, and her demeanor was calm and gentle. She was slightly surprised when she heard his name: "Are you a Westerner? I'm a Japanese, ah, Although I don't look like one at all now." She said shyly, like an ordinary girl.Joshya knew he was referring to his red hair and green eyes.He was also a little surprised that the other party turned out to be of Asian descent, and he already praised reflexively: "They are beautiful, as charming as coral and agate."

"My lord!" Yan Qi whispered beside him to remind him to pay attention to his words, but Joshua didn't feel that he had said anything wrong.

Yoko Nakajima, no, the queen who has changed her name to Chizi smiled casually: "Thank you, I rarely hear such direct praise in the palace."

After the four of them entered the palace, they waved back the palace servants, and Yan Qi and Jing Qi also left with an excuse. King Jing thought about it according to Yan Qi's entrustment to get to the point.

She sits high on the main seat, her imposing manner is more like a general than the queen, but fortunately, the women's casual clothes and hairstyle soften this strong aura a little.Joshua had a vague feeling that the queen didn't come here specifically to stand by her side.She seemed to be thinking, then laughed after a while, which made her look like a simple high school student.

"Life here is still hard for the King to get used to?" She asked, Joshua looked at her, his bright blue eyes turned very bright amber because of the sun, he denied: "No, the truth It was a very wonderful and memorable trip last time, you know, like Doctor Who or Star Trek or something..." Joshya made a comparison, and then said: "Anyway, if you leave out the one-way ticket, everything else is pretty good .”

King Jing was stunned for a moment, the white gauze on the other party's neck was very eye-catching, her voice sank subtly: "This is not a trip for you."

She seemed to be reminding him of some responsibility, but Joshah wasn't prepared to do that.He asked back: "Of course it is, otherwise what is this? God, maybe the TV network in that world is full of missing person notices about me now. I don't want to go back to the police station first, I hate the police station. Besides, to be honest, the choice of king in this country is too casual and perfunctory."

"Ah, so that's how it is." King Jing seemed to understand something: "Actually, I have been speaking Japanese, but you still sound English, right? Because King Gong is already a fairy, although in fact everyone here is here. It’s an unfamiliar language but you can understand it easily, isn’t it?” She stood up, “Qiaoguo was the first place I came here, and for this reason I thought it was just a place close to Japan at first. Asian country."

Is this place called Twelve Kingdoms really a parallel world?Did it get here through some artificial crack?Joshua was full of doubts. He stood up and looked at the young and clean face of the other party, and asked, "I'm a little curious, uh, how long have you been here?" Get a little bit of intimacy from her, but he obviously knows more than Yan Qi.

"It's been a long time, 49 years." A faint memory appeared in her eyes, and even though Joshya already knew about the wonderful immortality system here, she was still slightly surprised: "You still look so young..."

"In comparison, I'm indeed the youngest king today." King Jing looked at Joshya more like a child who hasn't grown up. God, he doesn't want himself to become like this in the future, a person who has been raped A boy with a thousand-year-old soul trapped in a strange place, "Don't you ever think about going back?"

"At the beginning, I wanted to go back all the time, but then I chose what I should do." King Jing wrote lightly: "And now even if I go back, my parents won't recognize me. My appearance is not long after I came here. Then there was a complete change.”

"Poor girl." Joshua said in an apologetic tone, and King Jing smiled and shook his head: "This is what I am. I told you that you are also a fetal fruit, so you were born here too. Your appearance should have changed a little too, right?"

Joshua's eyes grew slightly, and he looked around to find a round mirror, and heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the familiar shape in the mirror: "No, it's exactly the same." The female officer here told him about the fetal fruit, but the description The process made him hard to believe.The fetus ran from one person's belly to another world's human belly, what are you kidding?

"Many things here are different from the earth, and you will learn about these later. It's just that King Gong should understand this. If the home in your mouth refers to the place of birth, then your home is the Qiao Kingdom. God will only start from There is no doubt that the king of a country is chosen from among the people of that country."

King Jing's words were calm and sincere. Joshua paced back and forth struggling in his heart, and then found himself dejectedly believing every word the other said, "Why me? I didn't even think about working in the government."

The heroic queen just looked at him quietly, and when he figured it out, Joshya asked, "Then I'll never go back? They're all damned qi!"

King Jing said softly: "Please don't blame Qilin, look for the king, protect the king, and bring the king back to the country to fulfill their destiny. It took Qilin more than 20 years to find you."

"What if you can't find it?"

This is obviously a bad topic. King Jing turned his eyes away: "Qiaoguo had a unicorn before Gongqi, because the king died at the age of 30 because he couldn't find it. The people of Qiaoguo regarded it as a punishment from heaven. Because the last king killed Qilin and no longer gave them a new king and became the next Fangguo, so your arrival made them so overjoyed, and you gave them hope of salvation."

"I don't want to be king."

"The king has no way out."

"Otherwise I will die?" Joshua rubbed his head as if he couldn't accept it: "It's not fair... Didn't you realize? God damn it." He raised his head, as if he could see the sea of ​​clouds across the ceiling The blue sky above is full of sunlight, "Why are we being manipulated by something invisible and intangible? There is nothing on it!"

"King Wang—"

"I believe everything you say, but that doesn't mean I have to accept it," said Joshya, his bright eyes and blond hair glistening in the sun. "I know exactly what I want. My parents, Kathy, my bed, the World Cup, video games. I want to live differently, but I can't give up my original life because of it."

Joshya apologized: "Nice to meet you, but I won't change my mind."
