Whether it is a duel between top players or an ordinary street fight, "appearance" is very important.
When a half-immortal fights, he has to recite a poem and make a concave shape when he appears; when a boxer fights, he has to play some music and perform a show; even when the young and Dangerous boy goes out to negotiate, who is not followed by dozens of brothers?
Put your hands in your pockets and walk forward?
There is no doubt that a shocking appearance will have a certain psychological impact on your opponent, giving you a certain advantage.
Even if the other party is really as stable as an old dog and won't take advantage of you, you can at least influence the bystanders and strengthen your own momentum and courage.
So when we look back at Huang Donglai's appearance at this moment, it is not difficult to see that... he is also quite good at bluffing and gaining the upper hand.
First of all, he did not show his true colors to others, but deliberately dressed up as an old Taoist priest with white hair and boyish face - this look is very close to people's stereotype of an outsider who slays demons and protects the Tao, which makes people think of him in their hearts.
"Positive characters" have a basic identity.
Secondly, he came from a high place and landed at a high place. He could do what others couldn't and made everyone "look up" to him. This caused him to plant a seed in people's subconscious mind from the moment he appeared on the stage that "this person is not the best person".
"Ordinary people, and higher than ordinary people" concept, and this concept can make him more bold in what he says and does next, and he does not need to explain too much about his words and deeds in order to be convincing.
Third, he mobilized his inner strength and let his laughter echo through the entire temple. This was to use his voice to attract the attention of the crowd, so that his cool appearance would not be a secret; this
The combination of laughter, his image, stance, and movements creates a three-dimensional performance.
And after this brief performance, his goal was naturally achieved...
At this moment, everyone, including Xiong Fengshan, turned their attention to him and looked up at him, waiting for him to speak.
"The Demon Dao Xiong Fengshan!" As soon as Huang Donglai opened his mouth, he angrily scolded Xiong Fengshan, "Seeing that I am here, why don't you kneel down and accept your surrender!"
What he said is amazing.
Without making any sense at all, he first labeled Xiong Fengshan as a "demon", and he regarded himself as a "immortal". This is equivalent to first labeling this "good versus evil" without any evidence.
"Wrong" was distinguished to justify all subsequent actions against Xiong Fengshan.
As for Xiong Fengshan, he was in the crisis of being suspected and besieged by the people just now. He finally eased the situation with his tricks and sophistry, but unexpectedly, he was knocked back to his original shape by the word "demon".
.
The common people are very simple. They have not been completely convinced by Xiong Fengshan. When they heard this sentence, they immediately thought: This "immortal" who descended from the sky called Xiong Fengshan a demon as soon as he came.
It seems that he has not run away. Let me just say that I just heard the conversation between him and the magistrate. The magistrate also said that he can do magic... Isn't this right? Fortunately, this great immortal is here, otherwise
We were almost deceived by this monster again.
"You!" Xiong Fengshan was so angry. He was looking at the situation that was about to change. He was confused by an old man who didn't know where he came from. He immediately pointed at Huang Donglai and said, "Who are you? Dare to talk nonsense and spit blood here.
!”
"I don't even know this Immortal?" Huang Donglai smiled upon hearing this, "I am the leader of the Harmony Cult, the Dharma King of the Hunyuan Star Gate, and I am the old Immortal Xudong!"
As soon as his name was announced, someone in the crowd immediately exclaimed: "Ah? He is the old immortal Xudong who appeared at the 'Seven Heroes Meeting' organized by Nacao Gang last year!"
When you see this, some people may want to ask, who can react so quickly and say this sentence as soon as they hear the four words "Xudong Laoxian"?
Damn, it’s not just Lin Yuancheng...
This kid is trying to blend in with the crowd.
And after Xiao Lin's reminder, many people really remembered: It seems that they have heard of such a name, and we also know that the "Hunyuan Star Gate" replaced the "Luoyang Justice Gate" and entered the Fourth World.
The new giant of the Men San Gang, right?
Ladies and gentlemen, don’t wonder why these ordinary people know this. In fact, it’s easy to understand... In this "martial arts world", the anecdotes in the world are similar to the celebrity gossip in our world, Dashu
The common people often chatted about this after tea and dinner.
In our previous book, there was also a passage where Huang Donglai talked about other people's fights in a tavern like a storyteller, and this even got him into trouble.
Of course, the common people hear about these Jianghu affairs and spread rumors, so they don’t know too deeply. This is the same as when we watch entertainment news today - what happened behind an incident, the truth and details
How, outsiders may never know.
"Yes, yes! I have heard that old immortal Xudong is so capable that even the leader of the Di clan of the Cao clan has to respect him."
"Yes, I also heard from my cousin in the next village that Xudong Laoxian and Zhang Baoguo, the head of Hunyuan Star Sect, killed Shao Dejin, the head of Cangzhou Xingyi Sect, on the stage of the Seven Heroes Association.
After a quick beating, Gang Leader Di just pretended not to see him standing by and didn't dare to stop him."
"Ahem! It doesn't matter what you two said. The most powerful thing about Old Immortal Xudong was that he defeated the masters of the ten sects by himself on the stage one against ten. Otherwise, this Hunyuan Star Gate
How can you be one of the four sects and three gangs in one fell swoop?"
For a time, the memories of the rumors about "Xudong Old Immortal" were awakened in the minds of this group of melon-eaters. After all, this incident was less than a year ago. In that era when entertainment activities were relatively scarce, ordinary people
They still remember such rumors very well, so when Lin Yuancheng said something casually, they all remembered it.
And in this case, Xiongfengshan's situation becomes even worse.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the gossip of those people who have heard the name and deeds of "Xudong Old Fairy", Huang Donglai's identity is equivalent to evidence; even if there were no photos in those days,
None of the people present had actually been to the Seven Heroes Association, but no one suspected that Huang Donglai was a fake, because his image and his words and deeds after his appearance were very consistent with people's expectations of the person under the nickname "Xudong Laoxian"
Imagine.
"What's wrong? Are you speechless after hearing my reputation?" When Huang Donglai saw Xiong Fengshan frozen there, he quickly pursued the victory and then said, "Demon Dao, if you know the current affairs, you can quickly capture me.
The immortal may still think that God has the virtue of a good life and treat you lightly, otherwise... haha..."
Xiong Fengshan really hesitated when he heard this.
Because he also felt guilty...
It is true that Xiong Fengshan knows some Taoism, but his skills are very low. To describe it, it is almost the strength of the bronze group on the ladder in PVP games.
If he really had great ability, he wouldn't be associating with a group of bandits, engaging in fraud here, colluding with the government, and looking at the face of a mere county magistrate...
Therefore, from the perspective of Xiongfeng Mountain, there is no problem in escaping from the siege of a group of common people, but facing the guy in front of him who calls himself "Xudong Old Immortal", he is a little unconfident.
"From what people around me said, this 'Old Immortal Xudong' seems to be a figure in the world..." At this moment, Xiong Fengshan thought to himself secretly, "Normally, people in the world should not be proficient in Taoism, unless they have martial arts skills."
He is very powerful, otherwise he would not pose much of a threat to me, but... this guy is wearing a Taoist robe, and he calls himself an 'old immortal', and he has no fear even if he knows that I know Taoism... Then maybe he also
Like me, he once worshiped an immortal master somewhere and learned some furry spells... In addition, he is also good at martial arts, so I don't have much chance of winning..."
After Xiong Fengshan made such a calculation, he had the intention to surrender, but if he had the intention to do so, he would not immediately kneel down and be ambushed.
People tend to take chances. Xiong Fengshan still wanted to test it again to see how powerful this "Old Immortal Xudong" was. If he really was a powerful person that he could not defeat, then it would not be too late for him to surrender.
"Taoist priest, you and I are strangers, why do we get into such a big fight when we meet? Is there some misunderstanding?" After Xiong Fengshan made up his mind, his words and attitude softened a little. He also left it for himself.
Lu——If he still has to surrender later, his current attitude may determine the way the other party deals with him.
"What? Misunderstanding?" Huang Donglai felt a little bit PTSD when he heard these two words, because there is often a bitch around him who talks about these two words. When he used "I can't fuck you to death, everything is just a misunderstanding."
"The routine has deceived many people, so when Huang Donglai heard someone say this to him, his first reaction was that the other person had no good intentions, "How dare you talk to me like that? I don't think you will shed tears until you see the coffin!"
Xiong Fengshan was also dumbfounded, thinking: What did I say? He didn't even get angry when I said he was spitting blood. Why did he get furious when I said it was a misunderstanding?
But before he could figure it out, Huang Donglai had already drawn out the "Village Sword" on his body, took a few steps across the eaves, waved his arms and waved a few sword flowers, and at the same time made secrets with one hand and read loudly in his mouth
: “Drink it in one go and you’ll be blessed with gold!”
Before he finished speaking, in the distance... there were bursts of golden light on the courtyard wall at the edge of the temple. Although it was not very strong, it was enough for the people gathered in the front yard to see it.
Then, Huang Donglai lowered the edge of his sword again, took out a piece of apricot-yellow talisman paper from somewhere, and held it between his two fingers.
After a breath, he rubbed his fingers together and glared, and the paper was set on fire.
"Hidden eyes shoot fire wheels from the sky!"
As he said this, the light all around turned from gold to red, like fire.
"Three pure and clear sun energy flows into my hand..." Huang Donglai followed up with a third sentence, threw away the burned yellow paper, replaced it with a palm-sized bronze mirror and held it in his hand.
This time, the light in the distance turned bright blue, and there were bursts of thunderous rumbling sounds.
"Xiongfeng Mountain!" At this moment, Huang Donglai suddenly stopped chanting the curse and shouted, "I will give you one last chance now. If I say the fourth sentence behind me, you may regret it!"
His threat was very effective...
Xiong Fengshan knelt down without hesitation this time, and shouted repeatedly: "Great Immortal, spare your life! Spare your life! I know you're wrong! Please take away your magical powers!"
Readers may not understand what is going on here. This is implicit in the book. The reason why Xiong Fengshan suddenly gave up was because he knew the passage that Huang Donglai was reading at the moment, or most people knew a little bit about it.
Anyone who practices Taoism knows that this section is called the "Three Elements Curse to Defeat Demons". Once the final fourth sentence, "The demons and demons are gone," is recited, a golden, fire, and sky thunder will be emitted from the bronze mirror, destroying those in front of it.
The target is smashed to pieces.
This curse... If you want to use a metaphor, it is equivalent to the "free throw line slam dunk" in basketball. Basically everyone who plays basketball knows it, but in fact not many people can do it.
Because to activate this spell, you must have a very strong Taoist power, otherwise you will not be able to cast it even if you know how to recite it.
At this moment, Xiong Fengshan took a look and saw that after the opponent had finished reciting the first three sentences, golden light was surging everywhere, fire was surging, and thunder was faint... The power of the three elements was already in place, which meant that he was really capable of unleashing it.
, if I didn’t surrender, I would be killed immediately, so he quickly knelt down.
However...actually, is this the case?
of course not.
Where does Huang Donglai have the Taoist power to cast the "Three Elements of Demon-Destroying Curse"? With his little Taoist power, he can't cast it even with the help of magic weapons.
What's more, this time he went to Beijing, he had promised Fudo "not to use Taoist magic", so from just now to now, he has only used Qinggong, internal power, and props.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So what are those golden lights, red lights, blue lights... and thunder?
Damn, the props are just fine.
I think you still remember that at the end of March, when Huang Donglai, Lin Yuancheng and Tyrell had just returned to Fushun Huangmen from Guangzhou, before they went to the Xuanqi Sect to face the wall, Mr. Huang gave Huang Donglai a "surprise", that is,
Mr. Huang used his free time to unlock the mechanism box that contained the essence of "Zhuge Pirate" Lan Shuoli's lifelong research.
Huang Donglai came to Wawu Mountain only after he proposed to Mr. Huang the suggestion of "research, experiment, improvement, and mass production."
Therefore, in mid-May, when Huang Donglai and his party went to Huangmen again to prepare for going to Beijing, Mr. Huang had already researched some stuff.
When Huang Donglai saw something interesting, he brought a few of them, just in time to experiment with these products in actual combat.
No...he was using it now.
Do you think those lights, colors, and sounds that imitate thunder... come out from far away places that no one can see? Isn't it all because the source of these things betrays people when they see them?
To put it bluntly, these were all taken out by Tyrell in a deserted place with props.
Because Tyrell's image of a big black man standing in the crowd is too eye-catching and it is difficult for him to blend in with the common people like Lin Yuancheng, so he was assigned such a task.
Poor Xiong Fengshan, because of Huang Donglai's bluff and Tyrell's trouble in the dark, he was defeated without even resisting.
So... what is the origin of this guy named Xiong? Who did he learn some superficial Taoist skills from? And how much trouble will Huang Donglai's actions today bring him in the future?
