"Nine games will determine victory or defeat, and then, I am willing to accept defeat!"
Lao Peng announced the rules of the performance in front of everyone: do not avoid life and death, but be willing to accept defeat.
For practitioners, this is part of the experience of going out, and there is nothing surprising about it.
None of these people are able to reach the realm of enlightenment by chance. They are all outstanding figures among their fellow disciples. They have good talents and stronger disciples. The only thing that falls short is their experience and cultivation.
But they don't think they are weaker than the pirates, because they are regular troops and the other side are rogues, with completely different backgrounds.
There is still no one who objects, but some people in the team have begun to disagree, probably because they are not satisfied with the way of acting, it lacks new ideas, and it cannot represent everyone.
There are nine people, who will participate is a question; there is Mrs. Bamboo and Fengwei Bamboo over at Bamboo Island, and there are nearly 30 people in the tour group who have to choose seven. Who will get in and who will not, there is no hard and fast standard.
Lao Peng and Lao Cai are just guides and have no right to make decisions for these golden guests, and the monk community is the most unconvinced group.
There is no one who is first in literature, no second in martial arts, and no one in cultivation, that's about it.
After some debate, the final method was in line with the most common understanding in this world. Whoever has a strong background and a strong teacher will be accepted.
In the absence of a standard that everyone agrees on and no time to determine the order of strength through competition, this is the only feasible way.
Qimen and Zhoumen in the southeast area... Jinmen in the northeast... Zhaomen and Yanmen in the north... Qinmen and Yuemen in the northwest.
In fact, in theory, the Shanmen in the southwest should be considered a first-class great power, but because it was rejected by a few fairies, it gradually affected many things, leaving Hou Zi in a state of neglect.
No one mentioned him, and no one mentioned Yanmen Sword Cultivator. If he didn't speak, he would naturally become a ball of air.
Of course, it is not just the Yan Clan Quanzhen that has been left out, there are also several major powers such as the Chu Clan and the Lu Clan who have also not been given the chance. Among the major powers, there are also strong and weak ones.
It's not that he doesn't want to take on the task, but that in nine games, how much can he accomplish by himself? The outcome has been clear since the rules were set, so there's nothing to struggle with.
When he sees you coming, the best way to achieve the purpose of driving away the pirate group in a situation like this is to swarm up when you first arrive, when you are energetic and united, and overwhelm the opponent with numbers.
Maybe they do not cooperate and are not united, but the advantage in numbers will make up for this, as long as they dare to pay the price.
The two guides adopted very strange methods, and he could probably guess what they were thinking. He could only say that this world of cultivation was too realistic.
Everyone is doing it for themselves, so there seems to be nothing wrong with it?
The cultivators on Zhudao Island are not strong enough, and occupying such a treasured Feng Shui land is the source of trouble. Without self-awareness, they place their hopes on the selfless help of others. If they can escape this time, they will not be able to escape the next time. They are not worthy of sympathy.
The three-party plan has been decided, and the performance begins immediately. The first person to appear is Fengweizhu. As the master, this is their obligation.
The opponent was a little-known pirate. The two sides were of the same level, and the fight was very anxious... In Hou Zi's eyes, he was mediocre and lackluster. The competition was more about the depth of his cultivation.
Phoenix Tail Bamboo is good at enchantment formations, and her Ten Thousand Bamboo Formations, combined with her own wood attribute system, complement each other's offense and defense;
The opponent's martial arts are relatively mixed, and there is no special orthodox tendency at the moment. This is also a consistent feature of pirate battles. They are unwilling to expose their original orthodoxy, so they add a lot of miraculous martial arts from unknown sources. The technique is used as a cover, and I don't want to bring trouble to the master.
Such a battle would seem dull, more intense than thrilling. If nothing changes, Fengweizhu will undoubtedly have the last laugh. This is determined by the characteristics of her martial arts.
The biggest characteristic of the five elements of the wood genus is that it is endless and endless.
Lao Cai quietly squeezed next to him and asked, "What do fellow Taoists think of this performance?"
Hou Ziyi said, "It is difficult for Zhuxiu to have a decisive strategy. The pirates may not use their full strength. In a two-point situation, the outcome is not important. What is important is that their fighting attitude is very strange."
Lao Cai nodded, "The Cang pirates have been harassing Zhudao for many years. They probably don't want to completely destroy Zhudao, but they want to cooperate and let the Zhudao monks stand in front of the stage to show face. Therefore, the pirates don't try their best. They have their own considerations, but they are afraid of hurting the other party and losing the cornerstone of mutual cooperation."
Hou Tzu smiled faintly, "Yes, they want to cooperate, but they have no idea of cooperating with the tour group. If they let Brother Zhudao go, they might be very powerful against us."
Lao Cai was a little embarrassed, but he still felt that he should explain, "Fellow Taoist, you are the only one in the group who comes from the southwest region. I think you know something about Lizhihai, so I won't hide some things from you.
We don’t want to get involved in such maritime disputes, but we can’t control the thoughts of those novice members, they are customers, and we are just the ones providing services to them.”
Hou Zi nodded in understanding. Of course, he knew that the two guides could not be entirely blamed for this matter. They were just forced to survive. When the tour group and the pirate group collided head-on, nothing could be changed.
Lao Cai sighed, "How to minimize the losses for these members is the only thing we have to consider, so we can only play the legal role of winning or losing, and there is nothing we can do."
Hou Zi was very dissatisfied, "I can understand your mood, but I don't agree with your approach; because your method cannot guarantee anything, there will still be casualties, and the result is not satisfactory. In the end, it will be both harmful and harmful. A humiliating ending.
You can't guarantee anything, you can't guarantee that there won't be any accidents during the performance, you can't guarantee that these members won't go berserk because their face is hurt. In the end, even if you can bring most of the people back safely, you won't be able to do this job, and you won't be able to do anything. Can’t get it.”
Lao Cai was puzzled, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Hou Zi looked at him and said meaningfully, "There is no good way, but if it were up to me to decide, I wouldn't choose to cover everything.
Or completely lose face and take people away directly, which of course is impossible now.
Either intervene directly and at least gain a good reputation regardless of casualties."
Lao Cai was speechless. This was the sword cultivator's way of thinking, "Isn't this too radical?"
Hou Zi shook his head, "It's not radical, it's just that there is no other choice!
With all due respect, Lao Cai, you have been in this profession for too long and have lost a lot of things that belong to cultivators. Therefore, you have to tolerate everything, compromise and compromise, always thinking that you can cover everything, but in fact you have gained nothing in the end.
You have underestimated the cultivation aspirations of these members! Most of them come from the most powerful country in the mainland. They have the pride of being unique in their orthodoxy and the tradition of daring to fight. If they are numerically superior, they will not dare to stand up and fight. If so, then how come their orthodoxy has stood firm in this world for thousands of years without falling?
Look, if the pirates are sensible, it's okay, but if they dare to kill the killer, it will be a free-for-all!
