Things in the Tianlong Sect had become so corrupt that Huang Xiaoshi couldn't help but shake his head.
The Dragon King has been defeated, and what he is doing now is actually comparing himself to others.
Although being worse than worse is a good competitive strategy, it can only guarantee that you will win, not that you will win well.
And if everyone is worse than others, then the lower limit of winning will be lower and lower.
For example, a person can only get 80 points in the exam, but his deskmate can get 90 points in the exam. In order to win, he secretly broke his deskmate's pen before the exam.
As a result, my deskmate's pen kept leaking ink, which resulted in a mess on the test paper. He only scored 70 points, and he won.
But the next time, his deskmate might deliberately let the dog chase him just before the exam, causing him to perform abnormally due to excessive fright. He only scored 60 points in the exam. His deskmate won by 70 points.
The third time, he secretly put laxatives into the water glass of his deskmate. As soon as the exam began, his deskmate transformed into Splatoon. Although he only scored 60 points, he still won.
If this cycle continues, everyone's lower limit will become lower and lower, it will become more and more difficult to win, and at the same time, the winning score will become more and more ugly.
In the end, whoever can take the exam alive will be considered the winner.
However, what is the meaning of this kind of winning?
What is the value of this kind of winning that only exists in the final "result"?
From the perspective of onlookers, both sides are getting worse and worse, or one day, both will be despised.
But no matter what, Dragon King did win a round this time.
They defeated the martial arts community in the Central Plains and obtained the [Book of Swordsmanship]. These were just trivial matters. The most important result was that this incident almost blocked the path of the Heavenly King Sect.
Because there are two major differences between the Heavenly King Sect and the Dragon King Sect, one is decentralization and centralization, and the other is coexistence and conquest.
The Heavenly King faction is all about decentralization and coexistence, while the Dragon King faction is all about centralization and conquest.
In the past, there were actually some centrists, such as those who agreed with decentralization and conquest, or coexistence and centralization.
However, through the constant struggle between the two factions over the years and squeezing the middle faction out of each other, there is almost no middle faction in the Tianlong Sect now.
Oh, I have to say, there are two more, namely Huang Xiaoshi and Xuan Mingzi.
Huang Xiaoshi and Xuan Mingzi's views were surprisingly similar: I'm sorry, everyone here is rubbish.
…
The Dragon King let everyone see his failure through his saucy operations, but those people began to magnify the Dragon King's failure and use it as evidence that the centralized system would fail.
In fact, Huang Xiaoshi can prove that the Dragon King's failure was really just an accident. As long as the conditions are met, others can also achieve a great victory.
It's a pity that history is not a game and can only happen once. As long as it happens, it is an irrefutable example.
Since the Dragon King is temporarily at a disadvantage in the struggle between decentralization and centralization, the method he has come up with now is to destroy the possibility of coexistence so that everyone can only choose themselves.
This is typical diode thinking, either left or right.
People often say that only the paranoid can succeed.
But this is the impression left by survivor bias.
More often than not, paranoid people will bump into various iron plates and get their heads bruised and bloody.
It is precisely because the probability of a paranoid beating the iron plate is so low that every successful paranoid will be talked about.
Just like the Battle of Chibi, why it has been talked about over and over again for thousands of years, because it is so magical that the weak can win against the strong, and such a beautiful battle has been fought. In the thousands of years of history, it has only happened a few times.
In Huang Xiaoshi's view, the Tianlong Sect has many opportunities to make a comeback, and even the Shennong Baicao Sect has created such good conditions for it. As long as the Tianlong Sect patiently uses the Shennong Baicao Sect to promote its teachings to the people, over time,
A large number of believers will always develop, and now we will talk about entering the Central Plains.
It's a pity that the Dragon King is impatient, he is too eager to make a comeback.
Now it's not what he wants to suppress, but what else he has in hand.
So, the Dragon King taught Tianlong to All in without thinking. Now that all the chips have been put in, they are just waiting for the cards to be drawn.
But what the Dragon King didn't know was that there was not much time left for him.
…
Because it was of no importance, Xuan Mingzi was left by the Dragon King to chew the sand in the Western Region, and was destined to be buried there for the rest of his life. After a surprise attack on the Tianshan Sect and copying a large number of various allusions and secrets from the Xiaoyao Sect, Xuan Mingzi is studying it with great concentration.
Of course, these Xiaoyao sect's martial arts were considered very advanced at the time, but because no one has practiced and improved them, they are now very outdated.
No matter how powerful the musket is, it is still a product of the past few eras. Martial arts and internal strength also need to keep pace with the times, otherwise they will make jokes like sword masters.
However, although the martial arts of the Xiaoyao Sect are outdated, the notes left by the leaders of the Xiaoyao Sect back then are still very valuable.
After martial arts reaches a certain level, it will be transformed into something similar to "Tao", which is actually a manifestation of "the end of life is philosophy".
The wisdom of this philosophy will not fade with the passage of time and changes in the times.
Sure enough, when Xuan Mingzi read a notebook left by Xu Zhuzi, he finally understood what the martial arts he had reproduced was.
This notebook written by Xu Zhuzi records a story about the "Eternal Age Changchun Kung".
The full name of "Eternal Age Eternal Spring Kung Fu" is "Eternal Age Eternal Spring Kung Fu". This Kung Fu has three major benefits. One is that it is extremely powerful. The other is that once practiced, it can lead to immortality. The third is that it can maintain youth forever.
The real version of Prince Duan's dream lover, Miss Wang, once asked Prince Duan to take her to Langhuan Fu Cave, which is the place where Prince Duan discovered the fairy sister and obtained Lingbo Weibu.
Miss Wang is frantically searching for the [Eternal Age and Changchun Kung].
Although Miss Wang is as beautiful as a fairy, she suffers from very strong appearance anxiety. Only by practicing the [Eternal Age and Eternal Spring Kung Fu] can Miss Wang have the confidence and ability to outshine other beauties.
As a result, after the two of them rummaged through boxes and cabinets in Langhuan Fu Cave, they still couldn't find any trace of the "Eternal Life Kung Fu". Miss Wang finally set her sights on the jade statue of the fairy sister.
Although Miss Wang knew that this fairy sister was Prince Duan's dream lover and that she was Prince Duan's true love and she was just a substitute, she still lost her mind due to the bewitchment of magical secrets.
Now the only place where things can be hidden in Langhuan Fu Cave is the jade statue of the fairy sister. Miss Wang believes that the secret of Changchun Gong must be hidden in the jade statue.
So, while Prince Duan was not paying attention, Miss Wang pushed the jade statue hard.
There was a banging sound, and the jade statue fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. However, there was no secret book in this jade statue.
The consequences of knocking down the jade statue were really too great. Although Prince Duan didn't say anything, Miss Wang could tell from his eyes that Prince Duan was extremely heartbroken.
His fairy sister is no more.
It was also because of this incident that Miss Wang felt that staying with Prince Duan was meaningless, so she turned to follow her crazy cousin.
Although my cousin has the mind of a child, at least he loves her as a real person.
Many years later, Prince Duan and Xu Zhuzi met again. When they talked about this matter, Xu Zhuzi said that the [Eternal Age Eternal Spring Kung] was in the Lingjiu Palace of Tianshan Mountain, but it had been destroyed by him.
However, the beauty is gone and the past cannot be returned.
When Miss Wang pushed the jade statue of the fairy sister, the relationship between Prince Duan and Miss Wang was already broken. This was the path she chose.
Seeing this, Xuan Mingzi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood what was wrong with his technique.
In fact, Xuan Mingzi used the [Transformation Technique] to recreate the [Star Absorbing Technique] or the [Beiming Divine Technique], but for some reason, what he practiced was actually the [Eternal Age Changchun Technique].
Of course, the current [Eternal Age and Changchun Kung] is still a semi-finished product, but after solving the cognitive problem, Xuan Mingzi suddenly became enlightened.
Subjective cognition is extremely important for exploratory research.
One of the biggest problems with exploratory research is that the researchers themselves don’t actually know what they are studying.
Don't laugh, everyone, this kind of thing is too normal.
Therefore, exploratory research is like luck, and there are actually not a few things invented by chance.
Xuan Mingzi's current state is that his thinking is confused and he can't find a way out.
It's like playing a jigsaw puzzle with irregular pieces. If the puzzler has no idea what he is putting together, he will fall into self-doubt as he puts it together because he doesn't know whether he has put it together correctly or wrongly.
However, if the puzzle maker understands what the puzzle is, some originally confusing thinking will suddenly become clearer, and the progress will be rapid.
For Xuan Mingzi, the most difficult part was the cognitive mystery, which was finally solved.
Now, it is only a matter of time before Xuan Mingzi reproduces the complete version of [Changchun Immortality Kung Fu].
Xuan Mingzi has always had a big wish and a problem.
The first big wish is to confront Wu Xiazi, while he is still alive, and I will make him angry to death even if I can't kill him.
Another difficult question is, if I achieve great feats, should I kill the Dragon King first, or should I kill Mahulaka first?
…
After returning to Luoyang, Huang Xiaoshi went to Xiaoyao Valley. He wanted to hear Wu Xiazi's more professional opinions.
In fact, Wu Xiazi's view has never changed. The current situation in the Tianlong Sect and the Central Plains Wulin cannot be improved by just one or two people.
It's like a heavy car sliding down a hillside. It's very difficult to stop it or even push it up, but it's much easier to push the car again.
This year, the big event in Xiaoyao Valley is preparing for the wedding of the head Gu Yuexuan, which is expected to be in the autumn. Even if everything is simplified, the due etiquette is still indispensable.
As a result, Jingji and Weiming were busy with these things and did not travel much in the world.
…
July is full of fire, but August is still young.
That is to say, the weather starts to get cooler after July, but it is still very hot in August.
However, the weather at this time has already become an autumn tiger's tail, which will not grow any longer.
Battles between the Central Plains Martial Arts and the Tianlong Sect have broken out all over the world. Since this year, more people have been killed on both sides than in the previous years combined.
Ji Wushuang went back to Luoyang less and less, and every time she came back she came and went in a hurry.
I heard from Ji Wushuang that the people from the Tianwang Sect seem to be preparing to announce the establishment of the Tianwang Sect, which means they want to split off.
The Dragon King definitely disagreed with this, so he sent Ji Wushuang and Asura to seize the time to catch the person.
The situation is getting more and more tense, and Huang Xiaoshi urgently needs to become stronger.
In just one day with Chen Chongying, Huang Xiaoshi felt the power of a top-notch master who went beyond the rules of the world.
Without this power, I can't even protect myself, let alone think about other things.
…
Huang Xiaoshi took advantage of Fang Yunhua and laid out a long line in order to catch big fish.
The advantage of this approach is that once the day comes, others will eagerly deliver what they want to their doorstep.
The disadvantage is that although the risk is small, the uncertainty is too great.
Otherwise, you still have to prepare a backup plan.
Huang Xiaoshi began to plan how to meet the Heavenly King. For super-class skills, he still had to make plans from the Heavenly King.
Huang Xiaoshi wants to see the King of Heaven. Now it is much easier than before. He only needs to tell King Cheng.
Now it is not Huang Xiaoshi who seeks help from King Cheng, but King Cheng who wants help from Huang Xiaoshi. The relationship between master and servant is reversed.
Speaking of which, Huang Xiaoshi realized that the bridge between Chen Chongying and Prince Cheng was actually the crown prince Li Huan.
All this time, Huang Xiaoshi has not thought about one thing:
Dongchang Changgong, who is worth less than ten thousand people, is the best master in the world. He is already enjoying the highest wealth in the world. Chen Chongying is wrong in some way and wants to collude with King Cheng to rebel.
Could it be that if the rebellion succeeds, can Chen Chongying become emperor?
This is really the eagle burping, the chicken has eaten too much.
Now Huang Xiaoshi understood that Chen Chongying was not helping King Cheng, he was helping Li Huan.
In fact, Huang Xiaoshi really wanted to say to Chen Chongying: "I have no interest in the throne."
However, Huang Xiaoshi's personality has always been ambitious and power-loving. When he told Chen Chongying this, Chen Chongying didn't believe it either.
Forget it, let them go.
However, no matter what Huang Xiaoshi thinks, his identity is no longer the same.
Power and strength are not transferred by subjective will.
Superman is Superman. Regardless of whether he is subjectively peace-loving or not, his superpowers will not be weakened or affected by this.
If one day, Superman suddenly no longer wants to be peace-loving, he will immediately become the most terrifying humanoid weapon in the world.
Therefore, it is also necessary to understand why Superman is targeted everywhere, because people are afraid of such a powerful power, and it is too unsafe to be only bound by a "subjective idea".
In control of the Shennong Baicao Sect, and with the behemoth Dongchang proactively sent to him, Huang Xiaoshi is no longer a pawn.
Huang Xiaoshi successfully surpassed the Dragon King and became a chess player, even a chess player who has not yet awakened.
King Cheng and Huang Xiaoshi are now in a cooperative relationship. Perhaps more to say, King Cheng wants Huang Xiaoshi to cooperate.
At this time, Huang Xiaoshi wanted to see the King of Heaven, and King Cheng would definitely ask the Lord of Tianyi City to personally escort him there.
However, Huang Xiaoshi couldn't just run around in vain.
For many things, there is only one chance, and Huang Xiaoshi must take advantage of it.
Now, there are three places where Huang Xiaoshi can most easily impress the king.
The first is the relationship. Huang Xiaoshi's "father" is a student of Tianwang, so this relationship is very important.
Next, talking about the situation, Huang Xiaoshi's character design is very perfect, integrating a series of elements such as noble birth, misfortune, and perseverance.
Finally, let’s talk about ideals.
Speaking of this, what Huang Xiaoshi said could make him cry.
Of course, the above are only things that affect the success rate. Huang Xiaoshi has two risks when he goes to see the King of Heaven.
First, his various identities may be completely exposed, and Huang Xiaoshi has to enter the final public stage.
The second is that the Dragon King may be unhappy.
After all, Huang Xiaoshi is now the Dragon King's capable subordinate. The reason why the Dragon King can still survive in the Tianlong Sect is because of the continuous offerings from the Shennong Baicao Sect.
If you have money, you can do things easily, and if you have money, you can buy people's hearts.
In fact, if the Dragon King could understand the current situation, he would be the one who wanted Huang Xiaoshi, instead of treating him as a subordinate and bossing him around.
It's just that the Dragon King has a very strong self-esteem. If one of his subordinates suddenly climbs over him, the Dragon King would really rather die than surrender.
If you can get magical powers by contacting the King of Heaven, if you are exposed, you will be exposed. If you are unhappy, then you will be unhappy. I don’t want to see you anymore.
When you level up and reach level 5, I'm still afraid of you.
At present, Huang Xiaoshi is afraid that something will happen again.
The Heavenly King saw it, but the old guy refused to hand over the martial arts secrets, and then his private meeting with the Heavenly King was leaked.
This is really a loss to my grandma’s family.
It is said that bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes. Now that Huang Xiaoshi is a rich man, he does not dare to be as careless as before in every step.
While Huang Xiaoshi was waiting hard, he heard a burst of noise coming from outside the door.
Huang Xiaoshi walked out of his small courtyard and found that the second courtyard was already crowded with people.
The long line was released, the bait was spread, and the fish finally came.
