Chapter 763: The best outcome is a lose-lose situation
"Master, what do these eight words mean?" Xuanwu immediately asked Dao Zun.
"The younger generation dares to speculate." At this time, Lin Xiangnan looked at Daozun and said, "These eight words said by Daozun's predecessors should refer to the Thousand Machines Sect Master and the Prince. â
Daozun smiled, then nodded, obviously Lin Xiangnan guessed correctly.
"Little baby, how do you know?" Xuanwu looked at Lin Xiangnan in surprise and asked.
Dong Ruxue and Xu Changfa also looked at Lin Xiangnan at this time, waiting for Lin Xiangnan to give an answer.
"Jidu Rahu is a peerless fierce star, every time one of these two fierce stars appears, the world will inevitably be in chaos." Lin Xiangnan explained: "The Daozun seniors used two fierce stars to describe the Thousand Machines Sect Master and the Prince, which is very appropriate, and what the Daozun predecessors said, killing each other, means that the Thousand Machines Sect Master and the prince must have a battle this time, presumably the Daozun seniors have just calculated a hexagram." â
"That's right." Daozun looked at Lin Xiangnan approvingly, nodded and said, "Poor Dao did calculate a hexagram just now, and what the hexagram shows is as you described. â
"I see." Xuanwu suddenly realized and said, "That means that the prince will definitely fight this time." â
"Yes." Daozun nodded and said.
"That Dao Venerable senior, can you figure out who the final winner will be?" Lin Xiangnan hurriedly looked at Dao Zun and asked.
It is said that Zun can "judge life and death with one word, and determine life with one eye", the technique of Qimen Dunjia has been cultivated to the realm of perfection, and it is divine.
So in Lin Xiangnan's view, does it mean that Daozun can calculate the final result of this century war.
Dao Zun smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "You are too embarrassed to be poor, these two peerless fierce stars, life and death duel, I am afraid that even the heavens, it is difficult to know the answer." â
Regarding Daozun's answer, although Lin Xiangnan was a little disappointed, he could understand it.
Because what Daozun said is right, the duel between the Thousand Machine Sect Master and the Lord of the Thousands of Machines, the victory or defeat is no longer destined by the heavens, they are all too strong, and their martial arts attainments have reached the peak, so who wins and who loses is unknown.
To take the simplest example, once someone accidentally makes a mistake and then the other party takes advantage of the opportunity, then the victory belongs to whoever wins.
Who could have predicted such a thing as a mistake?
I'm afraid that there is really a Da Luo Jin Immortal, and there is no way to pinch my fingers to figure it out.
"Now I am just waiting for what kind of reply will be given by the prince." Lin Xiangnan took a deep breath and muttered, "This big battle is really exciting." â
âŚâŚ
"Da Shao, you look like you're quite listless, could it be that you're stimulated by something?" In the Yixuan tea bar, Yuan Yan asked Lin Xiangnan with a smile while boiling tea.
It's been three days, and there is still no news from the prince's side.
Lin Xiangnan has indeed been bored enough these days, nothing more than accompanying Dong Ruxue, accompanying Yu Juan, accompanying Zhou Ying, accompanying Fujiwara Sumei, and then going to accompany Luo Xin, Qiu Lili is still in Mingzhu and has not returned to Yangcheng yet.
Originally, he was accompanied by many beauties, in the eyes of others, it was simply a happy and happy fairy, especially with Dong Ruxue, a stunner, it was simply envious of others, but Lin Xiangnan didn't feel this way, mainly he was waiting for all his thoughts to wait for the prince to reply.
When people are waiting, their mood is like this, except for what they are thinking about in their hearts, they will not pay attention to anything else, and they will not be able to drive their feelings.
Yuan Yan also saw that Lin Xiangnan was in a bad mood recently, so he called him out for tea to reconcile his mood.
"It's annoying." Lin Xiangnan smiled bitterly and said.
"Can you tell me about it?" Yuan Yan asked with a smile.
"It's not a big deal." Lin Xiangnan said with a wry smile.
So, Lin Xiangnan briefly told Yuan Yan about this matter.
Yuan Yan is Lin Xiangnan's absolute confidant, and this kind of thing is not something that needs to be kept secret, Lin Xiangnan naturally will not hide anything from Yuan Yan.
After listening to Lin Xiangnan, Yuan Yan could understand.
"No wonder Da Shao hasn't been in a lot of interest lately." Yuan Yan said with a smile: "If I were a young man, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to raise the interest, this war of the century is really exciting." â
People who practice martial arts are to martial arts, just as astringent people are to beautiful women, this kind of feeling, Yuan Yan can understand.
"Daozun's predecessors calculated a hexagram, saying that in this big battle, the prince will definitely fight." Lin Xiangnan frowned and said: "It stands to reason that it's been three days, and the prince should have to respond, otherwise, isn't it obvious that he is cowardly?" This will have a big impact on his reputation, and it is impossible for him not to know this. â
"Could it be that something happened to the prince?" Yuan Yan thought for a moment, then looked at Lin Xiangnan and asked.
Afterwards, Yuan Yan poured the boiled water into the teacup and began to rinse the tea leaves.
Lin Xiangnan shook his head and said, "There shouldn't be any changes." â
But after speaking, Lin Xiangnan's expression suddenly changed, he became very surprised, and his eyes widened, as if he thought of something.
"That's right." Lin Xiangnan patted his head and said, "How can I forget about this matter." â
After Yuan Yan rinsed the tea leaves, he began to make tea.
Before making tea, pay attention to washing the tea first.
If the tea leaves are not washed, the tea that runs out will have impurities, and the fragrance and taste will not be pure.
Yuan Yan poured water, looked at Lin Xiangnan and asked, "Da Shao, what do you remember?" â
"I gave Xin Wuming a fake copy of "Sorrow and Joy" before, Xin Wuming gave this "Sorrow and Joy" to the prince, if the prince healed according to the "Sorrow and Joy" I wrote, then he would definitely go crazy." Lin Xiangnan said: "Could it be that because the prince has gone mad, he has not dared to fight for a long time? â
Yuan Yan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Da Shao, although I don't know martial arts, but the situation you said is very likely." â
"If that's the case, then the prince will definitely not be able to fight." Lin Xiangnan said happily: "Once you go mad, even if you don't die, you will inevitably be seriously injured." â
"It's a great event." Yuan Yan said with a smile.
"That's not right!" But at this time, Lin Xiangnan, who was originally happy, changed his expression in an instant.
Lin Xiangnan frowned, and muttered to himself: "But Daozun's predecessors have said that the two of them will have a battle this time, which means that the prince will not go mad." â
"Da Shao, you believe in Dao Zun like that?" Yuan Yan said with a wry smile: "Although there are many legends about him in the market, in my opinion, this kind of thing is superstitious, and it is true that three points are true and seven points are deceitful. Well, even if he does have real skills, he is only a fortune teller after all, so he will also miscalculate. â
"You'd be wrong!" Lin Xiangnan shook his head, his expression became solemn, and he said: "The method used by Daozun to calculate the hexagram is completely different from the method used by those charlatans. â
"Qimen Dunjia's technique?" Hearing Lin Xiangnan say this, Yuan Yan was very surprised, and then Yuan Yan looked at Lin Xiangnan and asked, "Qimen Dunjia's technique, is it really zĂ i?" I always thought that those ancient historians deliberately made it up in order to deify Zhuge Liang. â
"Of course there really is." Lin Xiangnan nodded and said: "The art of Qimen Dunjia is an ancient Chinese technique, which was summed up by the ancestors after long-term observation and repeated verification in the struggle against nature. The art of Qimen Dunjia is generally used for divination and fortune telling, and comprehends the heavenly machine, so it is also known as the emperor's learning, that is to say, those who understand the art of Qimen Dunjia often have the talent of Wang Zuo. â
Speaking of this, Lin Xiangnan paused, took a sip of the brewed tea, and then continued: "And the Zhuge Liang you said, he really understands the art of Qimen Dunjia, from ancient times to the present, there are three generations of descendants of the art of Qimen Dunjia, the first generation is Zhuge Liang, the second generation is Xu Maogong in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the third generation is Liu Ji of the Ming Dynasty. You've heard of these three people. â
"Of course, these three people are all demons." Yuan Yan nodded and said.
"Yes, these three people can be said to have a last resort, and they have never miscalculated." Lin Xiangnan nodded and said, "And Daozun, who is the fourth generation of Qimen Dunjia's technique, has not miscalculated so far. In the circle of Guwu, there is even a saying that 'life and death are determined by one word, and life is determined by one eye', so I absolutely believe him. â
Regarding Daozun's fortune-telling, Lin Xiangnan would not have any doubts.
But at this moment, Lin Xiangnan had a few doubts in his heart, since the prince was destined not to go crazy, did he read the book "Joys and Sorrows" he wrote?
If you don't see it, it's okay, and if you don't see it, you won't go crazy. What Lin Xiangnan is most worried about is that the prince has read it, if the prince has read it and has not gone mad, it means that the prince has seen through the book "Joys and Sorrows" written by Lin Xiangnan and knows that the "Joys and Sorrows" is fake. If so, it means that Xin Wuming knows that he has been deceived.
With Xin's lifeless character, if he knew that he had been deceived by Lin Xiangnan, then he would definitely kill Lin Xiangnan regardless of the price.
"It seems that we have to make some preparations in case Xin Wusheng comes to the door." Lin Xiangnan frowned and thought in his heart.
At this time, Yuan Yan was very surprised and said: "I really didn't expect that this Daozun was not rumored to be divine, but really divine." But Da Shao, since Dao Zun is so good, then wouldn't he be able to calculate who can win the duel between the Thousand Machines Sect Master and the Prince? â
"At first, I thought so too, but then Daozun seniors explained, and I also felt that it was impossible to calculate." Lin Xiangnan shook his head and said.
"Why?" Yuan Yan hurriedly asked.
So, Lin Xiangnan told Yuan Yan about the explanation made by Daozun, and after Yuan Yan listened, he also suddenly realized.
"Yes, after all, it's a duel of this level, and the outcome is completely unknown." Yuan Yan nodded and said, "But Da Shao, who do you want to win?" â
"I want them to lose both." Lin Xiangnan frowned and said, "This is the most beneficial for me." â
The prince is definitely Lin Xiangnan's sworn enemy, although there is no hatred between the prince and Lin Xiangnan, but the ambition shown by the Eternal Life Sect is destined to stand on the opposite side of Lin Xiangnan.
And the Thousand Machines Sect Master, Lin Xiangnan didn't know this person, and after Lin promised to return to the Thousand Machines Sect, there was no news, so for the time being, Lin Xiangnan classified the Thousand Machines Sect Master as an enemy.
Since both sides are enemies, the best outcome of a war between the two sides is a defeat for both sides.
