Chapter 144: On the Importance of Rules
"Your name...... Is it really Tang Chengnian? "Suspicion or suspicion.
If the oath is sworn under a pseudonym, it is considered to have caught a loophole.
"Let's first make a promise with the way of heaven, and we all have to swear by our original name, how about it?" Tang Chengnian said.
Gambling and swearing are the favorite thing for mortals to do, and cultivators like gods alike.
They are different from mortals, once they break it, they will really suffer retribution, so they are more obedient than mortals.
An oath made by the way of heaven is a precious agreement that binds both parties.
The way of heaven never cares about people or gods, it only does things according to established rules.
Whoever breaks the oath dies.
That's not called morality, that's called rules, and after saying the rules, whoever breaks them will be punished, which is the most reasonable fairness at the moment.
"Okay." Guess agree.
Tang Chengnian reminded him: "You must also swear by God's name. ”
"Yes." Guess even agreed to this, obviously not wanting to regret it.
Because he didn't do it to deceive Tang Chengnian in the first place.
In situations where both parties have scruples and both intend to keep their covenants, it is much easier to make a vow.
Now it's just a matter of priority, but since Tang Chengnian and Guess sincerely hope that the other party can keep the agreement, they are simply vying to be the first to swear to show their determination and will.
Tang Chengnian and Chaixin first followed the previous agreement, and at the same time indicated the correspondence between their names and identities to Tiandao.
This means that if you use a pseudonym, it will work on the spot—there have been monks who do not believe in evil before, and they have obviously used pseudonyms. But he swore to the Heavenly Dao that he was using his real name, and as a result, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky on the spot, directly splitting a living powerful monk into a pile of ashes.
The tragic sight. Anyone who has heard of it must not want to experience it for himself.
Heavenly Dao will split the corresponding level of thunder and lightning according to the cultivation of the oath person, and sometimes, occasionally there are particularly powerful people who can escape, but this is a minority of the few, and more people are overconfident, and they are struck by lightning. This is not an empty phrase. It was really struck by lightning, and it was struck by lightning. The so-called heavenly punishment is definitely not a joke in the cultivation realm.
So. Tang Chengnian and Guess Xin did not tell lies, the power of heavenly punishment is something that even the gods do not want to and dare not understand.
"I'm Tang Chengnian......"
"I guess ...... in the name of God"
Tang Chengnian and Guess Xin both swore by the way of heaven at the same time. Guess yes. If Tang Chengnian said the right answer, he would definitely not deny it, and if she was right, he would immediately fulfill his promise and let Tang Chengnian and Shang Liujia go together.
Similarly, Tang Chengnian also promised Guess Xin if she left. He Shang Liujia will hide the fact that he has come to Youyou City, and will never mention the suspicion that he is hiding here.
"Hide?" Guess is not pleasant to hear. "No, change the word."
Tang Chengnian swore that he trembled halfway through, for fear that he would be struck by lightning if he said the wrong thing.
But she couldn't pretend not to hear it directly, so she looked at him helplessly: "Then what do you want me to say?" ”
"How could I be hiding here? It's just a little bit of an eyesore...... I don't want to see it! "Guess it's the reason.
Tang Chengnian followed her.
"Okay, anyway, I can't sue anyone, and I can't reveal your location in any way, okay?" Tang Chengnian was very cooperative, she just wanted to complete the procedure quickly, and after that, once she guessed correctly, she could leave, in that case, why waste time on such small details?
Guess thought carefully for a long time before slowly nodding and saying, "So?" …… Yes. ”
"That's fine." Tang Chengnian nodded eagerly.
So, Tang Chengnian quickly withdrew the original sworn line, thinking that this was not very difficult, she just went through it in her mind, and easily came up with a new speech.
After listening to it this time, I finally agreed.
And Tang Chengnian did not express any doubts about the oath of suspicion.
After the oath was completed, everyone was happy, whether it was Tang Chengnian or Guess, they were very relieved and relieved.
Now, Tang Chengnian and Guess Xin have reached a delicate balance on each other's bottom line.
A qiē start over is also a fair start.
Tang Chengnian did not make any new demands from beginning to end.
Because since she had just spoken, she had quietly paid attention to the expression of the guess, whether it was joy or sorrow, she saw it in her eyes - of course, the expression of the guess was not so complicated, but it was always very solemn. Shang Liujia also observed every change in micro-expressions for her, and both of them noticed this and reminded each other, so Tang Chengnian and Shang Liujia kept quiet, and neither of them expressed any objections.
Satisfied, they were satisfied.
In the same way, they can already see that if they continue to make new demands, perhaps, their suspicions will turn their minds.
In that case, the gains outweigh the losses, so it's better to take it one step at a time.
If he can complete the last step, Tang Chengnian doesn't mind wanting nothing.
After all, being able to pick up the most important life is already satisfying for her.
Now, Tang Chengnian finally got the promise of guessing, and she swore by the rules of Heavenly Dao, and her heart was a lot more settled. In this way, although everyone hates to be tied down, most people like to get along with opponents who follow the rules. There are no rules, there is no circle, and more importantly, everyone does not follow the rules, so the world is inevitably full of suspicion and betrayal.
If you are mentally tired, even if you don't move, your whole person will be tired.
A tired heart is better than a qiē tiredness.
Now, both sides have sworn by the way of heaven, and under the threat of rules that cannot be changed or compromised, Tang Chengnian and Guess Xin both showed a satisfied smile.
Tang Chengnian's tone also became a lot more relaxed, she was always timid before, mostly because she was worried that he would suddenly regret it, especially after he had already done this once, she was even more worried. I wanted to fight for it, but I didn't dare to tear my face, so that she wanted to do this for a while, but she didn't dare for a while, so she didn't stick to her ends, which was very embarrassing. Now, under the supervision of Heavenly Dao, the rules have been set for Guess Xin, and she and He have to do it, as long as she doesn't go out of line, she doesn't have to be so shy anymore, she doesn't dare to do anything, there are some things that can be said.
So Tang Chengnian asked first: "In this case, next, I only need to give you the answer, it is correct, and he and I can leave, right?" ”
After listening to it for a while, I felt that something was not quite right, as if something was missing.
He shook his head suddenly and said, "Wait a minute, I have something to ask you." (To be continued......)
