Siege battles are very common, and it is also very common for siege teams to directly initiate battles.
However, it is rare to directly challenge the city lord.
The reason is simple. If you challenge the city lord, you have to accept twice the numerical advantage of the challenger.
In other words, Kong Tuo can send ten people to fight.
As for Lin Xiaodong and the others, they could only field five people! Of course, Lin Xiaodong and the others only had five people, so they couldn't send more people if they wanted to.
This siege battle was somewhat special, with old and new grudges attracting a lot of attention. Not only did the news spread in Shangshan City, but even the surrounding cities also received the news! Some city lords who had always admired Lin Xiaodong dressed up skillfully and mixed up.
When I entered the city, I wanted to help Lin Xiaodong! Most of the city lords came to persuade Lin Xiaodong to give up the challenge and admit defeat. There was no need to die in vain.
Of course, Lin Xiaodong would not give up and drove away all these city lords without giving any face! However, there was a city lord who really wanted to help Lin Xiaodong and offered to pay for a highly respected Nascent Soul Stage monk to help Lin Xiaodong make peace.
Put down this decisive battle! Don’t hit the smiling man with your hands. This city lord named Feng Cheng is so interested that Lin Xiaodong can’t even drive him away.
Lin Xiaodong knew that even if he wanted to give up the challenge, Kong Tuo would not agree.
Because Ge Shuye is Kong Tuo's life and death enemy, how could he give up the great opportunity to kill Ge Shuye?
Therefore, Lin Xiaodong agreed to Feng Cheng's suggestion and asked him to invite the great monk to make peace! At noon the next day, Feng Cheng actually brought a monk with gray hair, a proud face, and a superior look.
The great monk made excessive demands as soon as he arrived, extending his hand and saying: "If you want me to help you, you have to give me one million spiritual stones!"
"Senior Li, didn't you accept my spirit stone?"
Feng Cheng looked aggrieved and felt that he had been cheated.
"The few spiritual stones you have can only be used as my payment for leaving the mountain.
This time you are very brave and have made things so big that you dare to challenge the city lord. Can such a big thing be solved with only 20,000 spirit stones?
If I want to make peace with this matter, I have to take care of it from top to bottom. Without millions of spiritual stones, how can it be done?"
The great monk Da Ma Jin Dao sat down, looked sideways at Lin Xiaodong, and said arrogantly.
"This...Senior Li, your asking price is too high!"
Feng Cheng wiped his sweat and looked embarrassed, obviously he couldn't take out so many spiritual stones.
Lin Xiaodong chuckled, motioned for Feng Cheng to sit down, looked at Brother Li and said, "I don't need you to worry about it. I don't need your help. Just return those 20,000 spirit stones!"
"What?
Don't you want my help?
Don’t you want to live anymore?”
The great monk glared at him and scolded him in an old-fashioned manner: "You guys are really ignorant.
You know, under the command of Lord Kong, there are Nascent Soul Stage monks on the battlefield.
Just by yourself, what strength do you have to fight against each other?
It’s not that I look down on you, but in a two-day decisive battle, none of you will be able to leave alive.
At this point I just want to ask you, which is more important, money or life?"
Lin Xiaodong curled his lips and raised his eyebrows: "I love money as much as my life. In my eyes, money is more important than life.
So, return those 20,000 spirit stones!"
Lin Xiaodong stretched out his right hand in front of Brother Li, asking for a debt.
Feng Cheng tried to persuade him, but he was rejected by Lin Xiaodong! "Ignorant young man, you will regret it!"
Brother Li was furious, took out a spiritual ticket and walked away.
Lin Xiaodong picked up the spirit ticket and looked at it carefully. It felt so magical. This was the first time he had seen this kind of currency.
"Master Lin, what are you doing?
How can money be more important than life!"
Feng Cheng said with a sad face.
"Thank you Lord Feng City for worrying about us, but we have made up our mind and no one can change it, so please stop working for us!"
Lin Xiaodong then asked about the spirit ticket.
As soon as Feng Cheng explained, he learned that in recent years, there has been a large chamber of commerce in the world of Tianji and Earth, which has begun to issue this kind of spirit tickets. As long as you go to any branch of the chamber of commerce, you can use the spirit tickets to redeem spiritual stones of equal value, which is convenient for monks.
We conduct transactions! It’s almost the same as a check on earth. It’s not surprising that Lin Xiaodong knows about it.
"Little friend, we meet again!"
Just when Lin Xiaodong and Feng Cheng were asking about the spirit tickets, an old man and a young man appeared again.
Old Man Gong happened to be nearby. Hearing that Lin Xiaodong dared to challenge the Lord of Shangshan City, he became curious and came to watch the battle.
Seeing Old Man Gong, Lin Xiaodong became angry. Thinking of being seriously injured by Old Man Gong, he wanted to fight Old Man Gong for his life.
But when he thought that this old man was too powerful and couldn't handle it, he could only resist his impulse, pretend that nothing had happened, and said calmly: "You don't want to slap me again, do you?"
"I was helping you last time.
It's a pity that my boy didn't appreciate it and killed Nan Weitian anyway. Alas, you may not know that you have gotten into a big trouble.
In the Nan clan, there is a Dharma King. Do you know that your current strength is not enough to challenge the Dharma King?
You have to be more careful in the future, the Nan family will not let you go easily!"
Old Man Gong sighed again and again. He didn't know whether he sighed because he couldn't help Lin Xiaodong, or because Lin Xiaodong was too reckless and helpless! "You don't need to worry about my affairs. I don't need your help. Just don't ruin my affairs!"
Lin Xiaodong didn't appreciate it, he didn't have a good impression of Old Man Gong.
"Haha... I just like your fierceness. I hope you can give me a good show in the final battle!"
Old Man Gong was not angry either. He walked towards the counter with a smile and planned to stay in this inn.
After seeing Feng Cheng off, Lin Xiaodong and the other five sat in a room and discussed Old Man Gong.
"Brother Lin, that old man is so powerful. What if he intervenes again and helps Kong Tuo?"
Ge Shuye said anxiously.
He was very interested in this decisive battle. This was his chance to avenge his family by killing Kong Tuo. He really didn't want to be ruined.
"At this point, we can only bite the bullet [Ding Dian Novel www.booktxt.xyz]. I hope the old man keeps his word and doesn't interfere this time."
Lin Xiaodong sighed, but there was nothing he could do.
In the face of absolute strength, people will always despair.
Lin Xiaodong has seen the strength of Old Man Gong. It is so strong that he can't fight against it! "I hope so!"
Ge Shuye sighed.
After two days of rest, the day of the decisive battle arrived.
Early in the morning, Lin Xiaodong and five others set out.
Along the way, there were huge crowds of people, all heading towards the city lord's palace.
Obviously, the citizens want to witness a life-and-death battle! It can almost be said that in Shangshan City, all the citizens are out in force, dragging their families with them, and it is as lively as watching fireworks during the New Year.
This battle attracted a lot of attention, and even the city lords of many nearby cities came over to watch the battle.
Just ask anyone, who is more optimistic about winning?
Ninety-nine percent of people will say without hesitation that Kong Tuo's side will win, and no one is optimistic about Lin Xiaodong's side!
