Seeing that everyone was tense, Gu Xiangtian smiled and said nothing. But his eyes became sharper, and he kept looking at Zhang Xu and the others. Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he immediately withdrew his gaze and waved his hand to signal everyone not to act rashly.
. He opened his mouth and said: "These people I have placed under the audience are not the 'Elixir of Immortality' you call them at all, but just ordinary people. To avoid hurting our harmony, are you willing to take a gamble with me?"
"
"How to bet? What to bet on?" Li Xiaotian and the other four asked in unison.
Gu Xiangtian smiled and said: "If it is the 'Elixir of Immortality', I am willing to share it equally with you. If not, you and others need to each come up with two psychic magic weapons and five thousand spiritual stones."
As compensation for destroying the good reputation of our Tianxuan Holy Land, are you willing?"
"There must be something in it. If you don't have a guilty conscience, why are there restrictions placed around these 'Elixirs of Immortality' to prevent me from entering with my spiritual consciousness to investigate?"
"Yes, there are hundreds of thousands of mountains that block the immortals, and there are few human traces. How can these ordinary people get in?"
"Before the opening time of the ancient Buddhist realm, even powerful people would be destroyed if they entered. How could there be mortals in it? The thing delivered by the teleportation array must be the 'Elixir of Immortality' in the form of a ginseng treasure! He deliberately said that it was
Ordinary people!"
"Yes! Bet with him that the benefits of Tiantai cannot be exclusive to Tianxuan Holy Land!"
"We need this and that..." the four of them whispered together.
Li Xiaotian stared at Gu Xiangtian with his gray eyes, and said calmly: "There are rumors that the headmaster of Tianxuan Holy Land is obsessed with gambling. It seems that this is true. It's up to you, just take the gamble! It doesn't matter what the outcome of the bet is.
, whether it’s medicine or a person, we have to take one from each family." Li Xiaotian negotiated with Gu Xiangtian on behalf of the other three families. He was very smart in his calculations. No matter what the outcome was, he could not go home empty-handed.
Gu Xiangtian pondered for a moment and felt that it was useless for a secular person to stay in the Holy Land, so he let him take him there to avoid suspicion. Thinking of this, he laughed loudly and said, "How can I just let a few ordinary people break the gambling rules?"
, you can use your spiritual sense to investigate, and then I will use the mysterious light to search the sky mirror to help you and others thoroughly investigate." With a wave of his hand, a burst of light flashed, and the restrictions surrounding Zhang Xu and others were removed.
The restrictions were gone and everyone was free again.
Zhang Xu got a general understanding of this unknown world from the conversation with everyone. He originally thought that the Holy Land of Tianxuan, spanning tens of thousands of miles, was a unique fairyland, but now it seems that there is something bigger and stronger than it.
"It seems that Tianxuan Holy Land does not belong to the top sect in this world. If you want to enter the world of cultivation, you must find a powerful force to rely on. You must not confine yourself to a weak sect."
"Being at the top of the mountain, you can see all the small mountains at a glance." This is Zhang Xu's philosophy in everything he does. Only by understanding the world can he survive, so he pays special attention to everyone's conversations.
"Spiritual stone?" When I heard the two sides talking about spiritual stones, I had a vague idea that spiritual stones might be the hard currency of this world. Gambling requires money, and if spiritual stones are not used as money, they cannot be used for gambling.
The magic weapon was not interested in me, but when I was worried about how to earn the first pot of gold to survive in this world, this deal came to my door automatically.
During the conversation, Zhang Xu had a preliminary understanding of the value of spirit stones, but he did not yet know that crystals were indispensable for cultivators to improve their cultivation, condense magic weapons, and perform diagrams and formations.
Li Xiaotian walked slowly in front of Zhang Xu and the others, his eyes were slightly closed, and a knife-like gaze radiated from his gray eyeballs. He wanted to concentrate and use his own thoughts to detect whether there was any "Elixir of Immortality" in everyone's consciousness.
Imprint, suddenly, a boy's voice came into his ears, disturbing his mood.
"I asked the old man on the stage, could you please stop him? I want to say a few words, and it won't be too late to cast the spell again." Zhang Xu was worried about these old men being interrogated as prisoners without any regard for the facts since he entered the hall.
Dissatisfied, Gu Xiangtian probed everyone's consciousness, which made his brain still hurt, so he was not so polite in greetings.
"Bold, are you the one who called me old man? You should call me the sect master," the guard disciples next to the palace scolded loudly.
Gu Xiangtian didn't take it for granted, he just briefly analyzed the meaning of the word "old man", raised his eyes and glanced at Zhang Xu, and said slowly: "It doesn't matter, the old man is the most important. What do you want to say?
"
"I think the bet you just made is unfair to the four of them!" After Zhang Xu said this, he turned to Li Xiaotian and the other four.
When Li Xiaotian and others heard that it was unfair, they hurriedly asked: "Why is it unfair? Let's talk about it."
Zhang Xu said calmly: "Both parties should place bets in betting, but he did not place bets because he used us as bets, and we are not his property. We are just guests invited by Deputy Sect Leader Huang!"
After being reminded by Zhang Xu, Li Xiaotian also realized that he and the four others had been tricked by the old fox Gu Xiangtian. The other party was playing a white wolf trick with him, and no matter he won or lost, he was guaranteed to make a profit. But as soon as he said this,
But it was hard to change, the bet was not small. I suddenly sweated, and had no choice but to turn my head and look at Wang Qiwu, Chi Hongxia, and Qingtian behind me, not knowing what to do.
Wang Qiwu and the other three also felt embarrassed. A cultivator should say what he says and must not change it. Otherwise, he will lose his trust in the entire cultivation world and also affect his character in future cultivation.
Wang Qiwu frowned, and habitually put the thumb of his left hand under his lips and moved it back and forth, thinking to himself: "Although this young man is only thirteen or fourteen years old, he is mature in heart. Judging from his confident look, he should have his own ideas."
My opinion, why not listen to what he has to say, and use this young man’s words to help turn things around."
After making up his mind, Wang Qiwu's eyes slowly shined under his wrinkled forehead, his gloomy expression disappeared, and his face was filled with peace. He said to Zhang Xu: "Even if you don't tell us, we know,
This bet is unreasonable. It’s just that I haven’t paid much attention to the two magic weapons and five thousand spiritual stones. I just treat it as a chance to win. Since you are the party involved and have objections, it doesn’t hurt to listen to your opinion. But it’s not the case.
Don't talk nonsense and take sides. If you can propose a fair way, do as you say. If someone obstructs fairness, let his blood splatter in front of the palace." These words were both soft and hard. After saying that, then
A smile gradually appeared on his sophisticated face, gradually spreading from his forehead to his eyes and then to the corners of his mouth.
Seeing this, Zhang Xu knew that his words had impressed Li Xiaotian and the other four people, so he lost no time and said further: "I think the old man of the clan should also take out a share of the bet, but the bet is not for the winning party, but for
We the people."
As soon as this statement came out, the audience burst into laughter.
"This kid got his head kicked by a donkey. Both parties involved in the bet got nothing, but he wanted to take it all!"
"The 'Elixir of Immortality' is medicine after all, that's why we came up with this inhuman method."
Zhang Xu said seriously: "No. We took the thing, but don't forget, the bet stipulates that no matter who loses or wins, you will take the person away. Isn't this the thing that was gambled away in the blink of an eye?"
We took it back together with the people."
Everyone thought the same thing. Although the magic weapon and crystal fell into the hands of Zhang Xu and others, it was better than falling into other sects. Besides, if it was "medicine", the medicine would be refined by then.
He came back the same way. This was the safest way. He agreed to follow this method. Gu Xiangtian couldn't stick to his previous opinion, so he could only secretly resent Zhang Xu in his heart.
"Okay, let's bet this way." Everyone agreed.
All bets were divided equally among ten people, and each person could get a psychic magic weapon and 2,500 spiritual stones. This gave Zhang Xu a sense of accomplishment. When he first arrived in another world, a big pie fell from the sky.
It hit him on the head, which made him very happy.
Li Xiaotian came over and was about to start visiting!
