1243. Chapter 1243 Treating the symptoms, not the root cause
Shaolin Temple.
Abbot Wuxiang stood on the wall, looking at the chaotic camp of the five sects, and nodded slightly: "Ma Xiaoyao is indeed very smart, and the ideas he came up with are practical. If Ma Xiaoyao had come two days earlier, the losses to the Shaolin Temple would not have been so great.
"
At this time, Abbot Wuxiang admired Ma Xiaoyao from the bottom of his heart. He just came up with an idea and plunged the five sects into endless chaos. It was really amazing.
"Abbott!"
A young monk ran over and said, "The firecrackers will be set off soon."
"So fast?" Abbot Wuxiang frowned: "I really should have collected more firecrackers... Sigh... What a pity..." At this point, Abbot Wuxiang pondered for a moment: "After setting off the firecrackers, it's time
Throwing stones at me, in a word, will definitely not allow the people of the five major sects to rest peacefully."
"Yes!" The young monk nodded, turned around and left.
"Wait!" Abbot Wuxiang waved his hand: "Arrange a few more groups of disciples to take turns to torment the five sects. Remember, a sneak attack is a sneak attack, and you must not delay your rest."
"Understood!" The young monk nodded solemnly and strode away.
Next, the Shaolin Temple arranged four groups of disciples to take turns to toss the five major sects. Each group of disciples worked for three hours. When the time was up, they would go down to rest, and another group of disciples continued to toss the five major sects.
In order to prevent the five major sects from jumping over the wall, Abbot Wuxiang specially arranged some traps in the Shaolin Temple. As long as people from the five major sects dare to break into the Shaolin Temple, they will never come back!
…
At the foot of the mountain.
Ma Xiaoyao sat on a stone, holding a bottle of water in his hand and drinking slowly.
"Ma Xiaoyao, how many more days do we have to struggle?" Tang Linhai came over and asked.
"It's hard to say..." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "The key depends on how high the endurance of the five sects is, but according to my estimation, the people of the five major sects will collapse in five days at most, and then we can launch a general offensive
, we will deal with the five major sects ruthlessly."
"Bang bang bang..."
At this moment, deafening music suddenly came from behind.
Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "Who is playing music? Didn't I ask them to play music on the top of the mountain? Why are they playing music at the foot of the mountain?" Ma Xiaoyao thought it was the disciples of the Tang Sect playing music.
Tang Linhai also looked puzzled: "I'll go take a look..." Tang Linhai stood up and walked out. After a while, Tang Linhai came back.
"What's going on?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"It's not our people, it's another group of people playing music." Tang Linhai looked a little ugly.
"Another group of people?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned.
"I have sent people to catch them." Tang Linhai said.
At this moment, the music stopped, but not long after, the music started again.
As long as the Tang Sect disciples rush over, the gang will carry the speakers and run away. After the Tang Sect disciples return to the camp, the gang will come back with the speakers and continue playing music.
After testing it several times, Ma Xiaoyao was finally sure of one thing: the other party had bad intentions! He deliberately brought in a loudspeaker to play music just to prevent the disciples of the Tang Sect from having a good rest!
Retribution!
What a real news!
Just now, Ma Xiaoyao used this trick to plot against the five sects. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Ma Xiaoyao and the Tang sect disciples would become the targets of others' plots.
"What should I do?" Tang Linhai asked Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "Send more disciples to chase and drive those hateful guys far away."
"No matter how far we go, they will come back," Tang Linhai said.
"This is simple, send more disciples to guard the perimeter. As long as the opponent dares to come back, they will immediately rush over and kill them fiercely!" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a stern look.
"This method treats the symptoms but not the root cause." Tang Linhai said in a deep voice: "You can think of a better way."
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "This is the best way I can think of at the moment..."
"Oh... retribution, what retribution." Tang Linhai sighed: "We used conspiracy and tricks to plot against the five major sects, but God couldn't stand it anymore, so he sent people to punish us."
One night passed.
People from the five major sects didn't have a good rest, and people from Ma Xiaoyao and Tang Sect didn't have a good rest either. The only one who had a good rest was the Shaolin Temple.
The drama of making trouble continued during the day. People from the Tang Sect were causing trouble at the top of the mountain, not allowing the people from the five sects to rest. Li Ming and the reformed killer were causing trouble at the bottom of the mountain, not allowing Ma Xiaoyao and the people from the Tang Sect to rest.
Tang Linhai was impatient. He couldn't stand this kind of suffering and wanted to lead his disciples to launch a general attack, but in the end he was persuaded by Ma Xiaoyao.
"If we launch a general attack now, the Tang Sect will suffer heavy casualties!" Ma Xiaoyao shook his head.
"Then what should we do? Just continue like this?" Tang Linhai didn't sleep well last night, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.
"Yes! Just keep wearing it out!" Ma Xiaoyao nodded heavily: "Now the two sides have to compete for patience. Whoever can't wear it down will lose!" At this point, Ma Xiaoyao added another sentence: "People from the five major sects
We haven’t rested for two days and two nights, and we just haven’t rested for one day and one night. We can definitely survive better than the people from the five major sects. Besides, there is the Shaolin Temple watching eagerly next to us. As long as we spend two more days, we can win!"
"What the fuck! This is the first time in my life that I feel so aggrieved!" Tang Linhai cursed bitterly.
"If you endure it for two more days, persistence will be your victory!" Ma Xiaoyao said.
"After defeating the five major sects, I will blackmail the Shaolin Temple severely!" Tang Linhai said coldly: "As long as the Shaolin Temple dares to say no, I will fall out immediately!"
"Haha... Master Tang, please rest assured. Even if you don't speak, Shaolin Temple will make compensation to Tang Sect. Shaolin Temple has always been very generous, especially to friends who are close friends in life and death." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
…
The night is already deep.
The music on the top of the mountain and at the foot of the mountain is still playing endlessly. Fortunately, this is a mountainous area, and there are not many houses within a hundred miles. If it were in a downtown area... the police would have come to check it long ago.
This is the advantage of remote areas. You can do things freely without so many worries.
Since you can't sleep peacefully, do something.
Ma Xiaoyao took Tang Linhai to play chess. The two of them sat in a tent. You moved your horse and he sent troops. The battle was fierce. Ma Xiaoyao was definitely a bad chess player. His chess skills were very limited. He often regretted playing chess, but he failed every time.
After playing ten games, Ma Xiaoyao lost ten games, which can be said to be a disastrous defeat.
"I said, Master Tang, you are also a senior after all, can't you give way to me, a junior? Why are you so serious about it?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a bitter face.
"On the chessboard, there is no discussion between elders and juniors." Tang Linhai said calmly: "It's your turn, hurry up! Don't wait too long, playing chess is like constipation!"
Ma Xiaoyao twisted his eyebrows and thought hard for a while: "Yes! Watch my Pegasus kick you!" Ma Xiaoyao made a move that he thought was very superb.
"Are you sure you want to take this step?" Tang Linhai looked at Ma Xiaoyao with a half-smile.
"Of course! What? Are you scared!?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a proud smile.
"Am I afraid?" Tang Linhai smiled: "Ma Xiaoyao, do your eyes reach up to your buttocks, and you can't see such an obvious dead end?" At this point, Tang Linhai made a move: "General!
"
"Ah!" Ma Xiaoyao's expression changed: "What, I just made a mistake, try again..." As soon as Ma Xiaoyao stretched out his hand, Tang Linhai slapped it back.
Tang Linhai's eyes widened: "I just asked you if you were sure to take this step, and you answered confidently. Now you want to regret it? There is no way! Hurry up, give me the money!"
After a long time, the two of them played chess and gambled money.
"Isn't it just a move? How stingy!" Ma Xiaoyao reluctantly took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Tang Linhai: "Here you go! Stingy!"
Tang Linhai flicked the banknote with his finger: "Hey, I'm really lucky today. I won eleven games in a row. I'm simply a chess master!"
"Don't be proud. I was negligent just now and gave you the opportunity to take advantage of me. From now on, I will show my true skills. You should be prepared to be abused!" Ma Xiaoyao said arrogantly.
"Okay, Ma Xiaoyao, that's what I said today. If you can beat me in a game, I will return all the money you won to you, and I will also make you my teacher!" Tang Linhai said.
"Are you serious?"
"Truer than gold!"
"Okay! I will let you see my true strength today! Just be prepared to be my apprentice!"
"Shameless talk!"
…
The two of them were bickering and setting up the chessboard, and then they started fighting.
Ma Xiaoyao had tried very hard, but he still lost in the end...in a complete mess...
"Hahaha..." Tang Linhai laughed loudly: "I just said you can't do it! Hahaha..."
"Come again! I don't believe I can't beat you today!" Ma Xiaoyao arranged the chessboard again: "Let me go first this time!"
"No problem, let's go." Tang Linhai smiled and said: "Ma Xiaoyao, I advise you to save it. Even if you stay with me for the rest of your life, you will not be able to beat me in a game."
Ma Xiaoyao gritted his teeth and said nothing, his eyes just stared at the chessboard.
Lei Dazhuang stood behind Ma Xiaoyao, looking at the chessboard in a daze. He could also play chess, but his chess skills were worse than Ma Xiaoyao's, and he had no ability to teach Ma Xiaoyao. Seeing Ma Xiaoyao playing more than ten games in a row, Lei Dazhuang felt confused.
Somewhat anxious.
At this moment, a Tang Sect disciple walked in, holding a tray with three cups of hot tea on it: "Master, Mr. Ma, Mr. Lei, I've made you a few cups of tea."
"Well, let it go." Tang Linhai said casually.
The disciples of the Tang Sect came over and placed the first cup of hot tea next to Tang Linhai, then placed the second and third cups of hot tea next to Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang: "Drink the tea while it's hot. If it's cold,
It won’t taste good.”
"Okay, I understand, you can go out." Tang Linhai waved his hand.
