For a whole day, Wei Changtian locked himself in his room and discussed with Chu Xianping how to deal with Zhuang Zhiming, who was coming to visit tomorrow.
With the addition of Xu Suisui, the three parties are actually now playing a semi-clear card game of Landlords, and their respective cards have been more or less seen by their opponents.
Of course, Wei Changtian knew more information than Zhuang Zhiming.
But the power the other party controls is greater than his.
To put it simply, Wei Changtian can see more cards from Zhuang Zhiming, but the latter's cards are better.
As for Xu Suisui...
She is obviously the "player" with the most information.
In other words, she not only knows all the cards in the hands of the other two, but can even "predict" Wei Changtian and Zhuang Zhiming's playing ideas.
One opponent's cards are better than yours, and one opponent has opened a "see-through plug-in".
It is undoubtedly difficult for Wei Changtian to play such a card game.
However, when the cards in his hand could no longer be changed, there was only one thing he could do -
That is to play this bad hand as well as possible.
Moreover, it cannot be fought according to normal ideas.
As long as Xu Suisui's next move is beyond Xu Suisui's expectations, everything in the future will be disrupted. At the very least, the information gap between the two can be greatly reduced.
Wei Changtian actually didn't know what choice was truly "unexpected". After all, he didn't know how he ended up playing the cards in the book.
However, he knows that there is a way to "play cards without following the routine".
Don't you know how I will play my cards?
good.
Then I'll replace him with someone else.
"..."
"Brother Chu, it's up to you tomorrow."
Glancing at the setting sun outside the window, Wei Changtian, who had been in the meeting hall for several hours, finally stood up and patted Chu Xianping heavily on the shoulder.
Yes.
The person who really wants to meet Zhuang Zhiming tomorrow is not himself, but Chu Xianping.
Basically, except for the fact that he and Xu Suisui were time travellers, and that they had a system, Wei Changtian had already made all the secrets clear to Chu Xianping.
But he didn't say a word about his attitude.
And Chu Xianping didn't ask, or even told Wei Changtian in advance what he planned...
Since no matter how you choose, you may fall into the coincidence of "fate", then simply break out of this shackles from another angle.
This method of evasion is actually quite similar to the "Wallfacer Plan" in the previous "Three-Body Problem".
Yes, you know all my trump cards, and you even know my thoughts and behavior style.
But you can't know Chu Xianping's choice.
In this case, when the players are replaced, the game will naturally go in a direction that no one can predict.
I have to say that Wei Changtian played this skill very smoothly.
But it also requires courage.
Leaving important matters related to his own destiny to another person to decide... This not only represents Wei Changtian's absolute trust in Chu Xianping, but also means that his way of thinking has completely risen to a new level.
From this moment on, he can actually be called a "strategist", worthy of playing this chess game.
"..."
"Don't worry, sir, I won't let you down."
Standing up as well, Chu Xianping bowed his hands in great solemnity.
After learning everything, he naturally understood how heavy his burden was.
But there was no trace of anxiety or nervousness on his expression, nor did he dare to "go to the table and play cards" because he was worried about making the wrong choice.
This is a sign of extreme confidence.
This is also how the IQ ceiling in "The Peak of Martial Arts" should behave.
The cold wind blows outside the window, and the sky is thousands of miles away.
After the last sultry night last night, winter has finally arrived.
It seemed that most of the leaves on the tree had fallen off just overnight. Although the servant had been sweeping all day, there were still many yellow leaves that had just fallen, rolling on the ground with the wind, making a "rustling" sound.
Looking at this early winter scenery through the window, Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping looked at each other and stopped talking.
Their expressions were very calm, but they were both thinking about the same issue in their hearts, a very critical issue.
Just like the metaphor just mentioned.
If Wei Changtian, Xu Suisui, and Zhuang Zhiming are currently playing a semi-clear card fight against landlords, then...
Who exactly is the “landlord”?
Who is the same group of "peasants" as whom?
...
...
At the same time, Changwu Hall.
"Captain, we've found it."
In the quiet room, an old man in gray robe bowed and stood in front of Zhuang Zhiming, lowered his head and said:
"On the night of October 18th, Wei Changtian and his man named Chu Xianping entered the Guanghan County Government Office at midnight and did not leave until the ugly time."
"However, we don't know what they did in the county government office, and we don't know if there were other people with them at the time."
"..."
"knew."
Eyes slightly narrowed, Zhuang Zhiming shook his sleeves: "Are you ready for tomorrow's worship service?"
"Go back to the helmsman, everything is ready as you ordered."
"Okay, you go out."
"yes."
"..."
Soon, the old man in gray robe silently exited the room.
At this moment, a meaningful smile appeared on Zhuang Zhiming's face.
October 18th was the time of the last session of the Presbytery.
In other words, one of Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping should be the Qingtai elder.
Except for the elders, the identities of Kuilong's people are semi-secret: most people in the same branch know each other, but people in different branches are strangers to each other.
Therefore, Zhuang Zhiming currently only thinks that Wei Changtian or Chu Xianping is the other person taking charge of the helm...
From his perspective, such a guess is actually quite reasonable.
After all, except for the time travellers, who would have thought that Wei Changtian once "owned" two tokens and such a weird existence as the Xuantian Sword's remnant soul.
Therefore, in Zhuang Zhiming's view, there is a high probability that the truth is only this one.
Then, the next thing he has to do is to coerce Wei Changtian into "alliance" with him.
The "alliance" here is of course not really an alliance.
Zhuang Zhiming, who holds the three-point rudder of Kui Long Bing, does not believe that Wei Changtian has the capital to be equal to himself, so what he wants must be to "completely control" the latter.
However, Zhuang Zhiming is not so confident that he thinks this matter is very easy. After all, Wei Changtian's "record" of killing the second level with one move is not considered a secret. It can even be said that everyone knows it.
So you need to be more cautious about this matter...
Here, Zhuang Zhiming has basically "confirmed" Wei Changtian's identity and started preparing for an "alliance".
On the other hand, Xu Suisui's current thoughts are completely different.
As the sun set, the two carriages slowly drove away from Lingkai Mountain, reflecting the glow.
Unexpectedly, Abbot Hui'an, who was wearing cassock, was also sitting in one of the carriages.
Obviously, just like Qin Zhengqiu before him, he should have been temporarily taken over by Xu Suisui for his own use.
As for what Xu Suisui promised Hui'an and how she proved her ability to fulfill it, it is currently unknown.
However, the current conversation between the two is somewhat intriguing.
"Abbott, have you ever heard of Kui Long?"
"The poor monk has never heard of it."
"Really? People say that family members don't lie. I wonder if the abbot had the Buddha in mind when he said this?"
