Chapter 57: Negotiations
Sun Quan's face was full of helplessness, he went around in a big circle, and he actually returned to the original point, and things became the same as when he was in the three-thought fantasy world, and he didn't engage in any art of negotiation, so he just admitted it. Hey, the initiative has changed from his own side to someone else's side, and it seems that he will be eaten to death by Qin Chuan again.
"That's right, my purpose is the elixir of longevity, if you bring the elixir to me to see, I will agree to your conditions." Admit it directly, but it's also free, at least you don't have to calculate, you don't have to intrigue.
"Sure enough."
Qin Chuan said secretly.
He felt strange, if Sun Quan's purpose was really the "Daozu True Scripture", then why not let him write a letter back to the master to ask for instructions, whether it was successful or not, at least he should try it. It won't take long to go back and forth, and when it really fails, it's not too late to find another way. And if Sun Quan's purpose is not "Daozu Zhenjing", then although he thinks it is incredible, among the four strange books, he can only take a fancy to "The Secret of Eternal Life". Not for anything else, just because Qin Chuan can get the elixir!
Qin Chuan thought that Sun Quan must have learned the information of the longevity formula in the palace from some channel, and then entered the palace today and saw that he was very good with the young emperor.
"What are you doing with the elixir of life?" Qin Chuan asked curiously, "Have you found a way to properly cultivate the Immortal Technique?" Or do you have other uses for the elixir of life, such as discovering the location of the legendary God of War catalog? β
Why does the ethereal God of War catalogue always believe in his existence? It is because there are some items such as longevity tips as evidence. The recipe for longevity was written by Guang Chengzi, and Guang Chengzi wrote the recipe for longevity after reading the God of War catalogue. Therefore, Qin Chuan guessed that there might be clues about the God of War Catalogue in the Recipe for Immortality. In short, Sun Quan is so obsessed with the recipe for longevity, in Qin Chuan's opinion, there should only be these two possibilities.
"What do you care I do with it, just ask you if you agree!" Sun Quan said directly.
"Promise you, no problem. But only after the deed is done, I will lend you the elixir of life. Qin Chuan said.
"No way!" Sun Quan shook his head directly, "After your deed is completed, what year and month will it be." β
Qin Chuan said,
"I gave you the recipe for longevity directly, what should you do if you don't listen to me after you achieve your goal?"
Sun Quan's eyes rolled, and he immediately proposed,
"It's better than this, as far as I know, there are a total of seven pictures on the "Recipe for Longevity", every ten days, I choose a picture to see, and when I finish reading, it will take at least seventy days. Seventy days is enough to implement your plan. β
Hmph, seventy days? Just kidding, as long as Qin Chuan dares to agree, Sun Quan will directly let me think twice after using it up three times, and he will be able to see four pictures at that time, and it only takes the second time for Sun Quan to finish reading the entire "Recipe for Longevity"!
Qin Chuan thought about it and didn't find anything wrong with Sun Quan's proposal. Even if Sun Quan's purpose was only one of the pages, or a few pages, since the Secret of Immortality was a whole book, there must be a connection between each page, and out of caution, Sun Quan would read the whole book to the end. But
"Time is too short. Every other month, I show you a picture, for a total of seven months. Qin Chuan said.
"A month is too long, fifteen days!" Sun Quan bargained.
"One month, it can't be shorter." Qin Chuan said firmly, "Is it possible, in just seven months, you can't hold on?" β
Sun Quan gritted his teeth,
"A month, that's a month!"
On the surface, Sun Quan seemed to have suffered a great loss, but in fact, he sneered in his heart: Hmph, naΓ―ve, I said one month, that is only one month, not the so-called total seven months! Just kidding, if you really want him to wait for seven months, then you have to do it, and Dong Zhuo may be able to hold the baby in Luoyang by then. (Dong Zhuo: Are you cursing me to be a father!) οΌ
Qin Chuan also shook his head and smiled when he saw Sun Quan's appearance, Sun Quan would be the one who suffered? Based on Qin Chuan's understanding of Sun Quan, Sun Quan is definitely acting, but Qin Chuan will not say it. While being able to achieve his own goals, he can help Sun Quan by the way, benefiting others and himself, why not? Moreover, saying that Sun Quan is a martial idiot, how can Qin Chuan not be a martial idiot? He was also very curious about what Sun Quan could finally come up with from the longevity formula.
After the decision was made, the two separated, and they both returned with a full load.
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
After Qin Chuan left,
"Second son, when dealing with the people of Cihang Jingzhai, please pay more attention to everything." Zu Mao reminded loudly.
"Oh?" Sun Quan raised his eyebrows, tilted his head and asked, "Have you dealt with the people of Cihang Jingzhai?" β
βγγγγγγ Once an enemy. Zu Mao hesitated, but still told the truth, after all, Sun Quan's father Sun Jian was very clear about this matter, and with Zu Mao's understanding of Sun Jian, he thought there was no need to hide Sun Quan.
"Really?" Sun Quan's heart moved, and he was hostile to Cihang Jingzhai, could it be the so-called people in the Demon Gate? No wonder Zu Mao's martial arts are strong, and he has always been just hiding in the shadows, protecting Sun Jian closely, it turns out that his origin is a little shady. Sun Quan was influenced by various martial arts novels in later generations, and he did not have any prejudice against the people of the Demon Gate, besides, since Zu Mao dared to say it, it proved that Sun Quan's father must have known, and even Sun Jian didn't care, so why should Sun Quan care?
"Haha, don't worry, I won't intrude on your privacy." Sun Quan laughed and said, suddenly his eyes rolled, and Sun Quan asked, "Since you have dealt with Cihang Jingzhai, you should also know a little about their martial arts." According to you, how is this Qin Chuan's martial arts? β
"Except for the Iftar's personal tradition, among the second-rate, it should be the strongest." Zu Mao replied.
"Ahem!" Sun Quan almost choked himself, two-two-two-rate? Is there any mistake? You must know that in Sun Quan's eyes, this Qin Chuan is already unfathomable, okay!
"Then do you think that when I reach his age, who is higher and who is lower than him in martial arts?" Sun Quan couldn't help but ask.
βγγγγγγβ Zu Mao was silent.
"Okay." Sun Quan's eyes turned white, "I knew I shouldn't ask this kind of question." β
No, no, it seems that you really have to count on the elixir of longevity. Otherwise, in the eyes of these real masters, it is estimated that they will only be second-rate goods until death.
"Finally, let me ask you a word: If necessary, if you are to fight against Qin Chuan, you should have no possibility of losing, right?" Sun Quan asked seriously, this answer will affect many of his future decisions.
"If it's just him, I can kill him in ten moves, and capture him alive in thirty moves." Zu Mao said.
"That's good." Sun Quan nodded with satisfaction, and for a while he had a deeper understanding of Zu Mao's martial arts.
"Wait! Just him? Sun Quan asked suddenly.
"The second son doesn't know, Cihang Jingzhai has a lot of research on formations, and his disciples are often good at the art of combined attacks. If there is another one of the same level, I may not be able to capture people alive easily. If there are two more, they may be able to match me! Zu Mao explained.
"So powerful?!" Sun Quan was extremely surprised.
"I'm very impressed with that." Zu Mao replied.
Sun Quan was silent,
"So, if you don't have to, it's best not to be an enemy of Cihang Jingzhai?"
Qin Chuan is not alone, there is an entire division standing behind him! Originally, Sun Quan thought to himself that as long as he got the longevity formula, he could run away at any time, once Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, who would care about him as a child? But now, Sun Quan has to take care of Qin Chuan's plan, if it is Qin Chuan's personal matter, it is not a big deal, but this is obviously a task of the master, if Sun Quan goes back on his word, suddenly gives up, and finally hands over the entire Cihang Jingzhai, it will be too cost-effective!
Go, that is a must go, but it must be done skillfully and in seconds. Among the thirty-six strategies, it seems that the golden cicada is ready to be used!
