Chapter 99: The Collapse of Rites and Music
Inside the Wang Fu mansion, Wang Hu listened respectfully to his son's instructions over the phone.
Having become the richest man in B City with only an elementary school education, the thing he was most proud of in his life was that, due to a moment of trembling back then, he had actually become the biological father of a superpowered being.
If it hadn't been for the good luck of having this identity, he could never have risen from an ordinary office worker to the position of B City's richest man.
The debt of gratitude to his son can never be repaid in a lifetime; this is something he, as a father, must be grateful for throughout his entire life.
After his noble son's identity as a superpowered being was exposed, the entire city was in an uproar, and countless people wanted to ask him exactly how he had given birth to such a master with superpowers.
Many years later, when facing everyone's inquiries, Wang Hu would always think of that night over a decade ago when he and his wife taught the child.
"It was the Monkey Confucian style!" So, Wang Hu proudly told every inquirer: "I used the Monkey Confucian method to combine the noble pure gold of the superpowered being with my wife's soft seeds."
"Yes, that is exactly it; our correct posture successfully combined the pure gold with the soft seeds, successfully giving birth to the noble superpowered being!"
"Of course, my personal effort only accounts for a small part; even before my lord son was born a few days ago, I vaguely sensed that even without my correct posture, the superpowered being would still be born; my effort at most made the birth of my lord son a bit smoother."
Following Wang Hu's success mantras, countless ordinary people who wanted to give birth to noble children early began to learn his posture and imitate his diet.
Some people even directly adjusted their clothing and appearance to align with Wang Hu and their wives.
And borrowing the status boost of being a superpowered descendant, all of Wang Hu's actions were given a green light all the way; by the time he came to his senses, he had already become the richest man in B City.
But over these years, Wang Hu had always lived diligently and conscientiously, strictly observing his own duty, and firmly remembering the teachings of the elementary school textbooks.
First lesson of the semester: "The Gap Between Superpowered Beings and Ordinary People"
Third essay: "Superpowered Beings Rightfully Choose Biological Parents"
Seventh essay: "On the Meaning of Ordinary People Living"
Over these years, he had witnessed the rise and fall of countless richest men, but it was precisely thanks to the teachings of the school during his youth that he had survived until now.
First, superpowered beings are equal among themselves, but superpowered beings and ordinary people are absolutely not equal.
Even if you are the biological father or mother of a superpowered being, if other superpowered beings dislike you, they will kill you directly; just consider it cutting off worldly attachments and severing karmic ties for the sake of the same clan.
So don't think you can act arrogant just because you are the richest man; the richer you are, the more it represents that you will be bouncing around in front of those superpowered beings, and the higher the chance you will be swatted to death.
Ordinary people must strictly fulfill their obligations according to the order; you cannot dress better than superpowered beings when you are outside; if you dress so well, do you want to rebel?
Nor can you dress too poorly; you damn well are the biological father of a superpowered being; dressing so shabbily is so shameful you might as well die.
The women you play with cannot be too ugly; that is shameful.
If they are too beautiful, that is even worse; if your wife looks so good, isn't she just there to seduce me?
Later, the superpowered being will come to your door, snatch your woman, and exterminate your entire family.
So, hide!
Before the Great Cataclysm, Confucius of the Confucian school said that people of what status must wear clothes corresponding to their status and perform the corresponding rites; otherwise, it is the collapse of rites and music.
In terms of rites, Wang Hu has always maintained himself very well.
And now, after so many years, when my lord son called late at night for the first time, Wang Hu immediately realized that his tribulation might have arrived.
His hands trembled, fearing that the voice on the other end of the phone would say: "Dad, I had a conflict with another superpowered being; he wants to exterminate my entire family, so I can only trouble you a bit."
This is very likely; this morning during the Carnival Day, two superpowered beings were even fighting over nine clans, so it is quite reasonable for other superpowered beings to want to imitate the crime.
Fortunately, my lord son on the other end of the phone did not say so, but slowly said:
"Dad, my boss wants to collect all girls and mature women in the New Nation with a beauty score of 90 or above."
"After big data analysis, my cousin's beauty score successfully made the list, but to enter the top hundred still requires a lottery draw to decide."
"Don't you often teach me that superpowered beings must help each other, cannot start conflicts with other superpowered beings, and must think of other superpowered beings in everything?"
"I was thinking, if my cousin agrees there, I won't participate in the lottery; I'll just plead for her to enter directly; as long as the subsequent physical examination is qualified and there are no physical problems, she can pass." The superpowered being on the other end of the phone smiled.
"Is there such a good thing?" Wang Hu's eyes immediately lit up.
Although he didn't know the specific details, since they are looking for women, those who know understand.
If this succeeds and she enters the list, wouldn't that change a family with one superpowered in-law into a family with two superpowered in-laws?
By then, with two superpowered beings stationed in the family, could the fortune be small?
'No, there's a trap!' Wang Hu frowned, feeling that something was not right.
What if our own people didn't serve that superpowered being well, and the other party, once displeased, exterminated our nine clans again?
'No, this matter must be carefully considered.' Wang Hu thought cautiously in his heart.
"Son, I must discuss this matter with your cousin; I must see her opinion; what if she doesn't have the fate for it? Wouldn't that be doing good but causing bad?" Wang Hu said earnestly.
"Alright, then Dad, consider it as soon as possible; a result must be given before dawn; if it is confirmed, I will directly replace someone else's quota for you."
"Okay, okay, I will definitely do it, but I dare to ask one question: what mission will your cousin be executing then?"
"It concerns state secrets; Dad, it is better for you not to know." The voice on the other end of the phone said lightly, then with a click, hung up the phone.
Hearing the busy tone on the other end of the phone, Wang Hu immediately dialed to contact his own relatives.
He must give his own children a make-up lesson, teaching all the biology and etiquette classes they missed over these years, trying to cram it all in one night, so as not to cause trouble later.
At this moment, countless people like Wang Hu across the entire New Nation received phone calls and stayed awake all night.
On this night, it condensed countless ordinary people's excitement, enthusiasm, fear, determination, and striving.
And all of this was just to cross the deep chasm between mortals and superpowered beings, placing a finger on the corner of the extraordinary.
If successful, at least for several decades there would be no need to worry about living problems; but the consequence of failure would be extremely miserable.
Anyway, no matter what, the hand of time will not stop anyone's footsteps; it continues to turn steadily forward.
When the next morning arrived, Fang Can bid farewell to Liu Qingmeng and others and came to the agreed-upon house, where he saw a man smiling and shaking his hand, saying:
"You must be Fang Can, right? I am your number one fan; I watched your performance at the Carnival Day yesterday in its entirety; you are simply a damn crazy genius!"
"My name is Li Huowang; from now on, Duoduozhi Sect!"
