Chapter 475: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
In the conference room, the main leaders of the gang were there, and the Clown Emperor was also called back together, and across the table was Qing Xuan.
The goal has been confessed, that is, I hope that the Clown Emperor will give up a skill when he confronts Luo Qian Han.
This proposal was made with Shi Chunqiu, and naturally he was also responsible for negotiating with the Clown Emperor.
"Heh, you've received a lot of benefits, haven't you?" The Clown Emperor didn't even have to look at the world with his eyes, he just looked at him sideways with contempt, and his tone was full of disdainful disdain.
He Shi Chunqiu shook his fan and shook his head: "You can rest assured of this, Brother Hai and Xiao Yu can all testify, and I and Shi Chunqiu have never received any benefits." ”
Brother Hai has already stated that if the Clown Emperor can agree, then he will go to negotiate with Leng Ruobing about the conditions, and 80% of the benefits negotiated will be given to the Clown Emperor at that time.
Is the Clown Emperor short of money?
No, if he didn't lack, he wouldn't have left Mr. Hai in the first place, and he wouldn't have gone to Zorro to complete Hades's commission.
But he also has his own principles, he endured humiliation and training for so long just to prove his true strength to the world in the open beta competition, the marionette during the closed beta period, the clown emperor of the open beta now, he wants to use his absolute strength to prove that he is not a cheater.
Giving up a skill gap could cost him a championship that was already close at hand.
Don't talk about him, he won't give up if he is anyone; Men can love money, but honor is what is really worth fighting for.
He Shi Chunqiu will not be unclear about this, since he dares to agree, it means that he has enough self-confidence, although we all know that he is not in agreement with the Clown Emperor, and we also know that he will have a personal vendetta mentality; But everyone still has a curiosity, curious about what good chess can make the Clown Emperor give in.
I saw that Yu Shichun and Quan slowly walked to Qing Xuan's side in a hurry, and gently put the folded fan on Qing Xuan's shoulder: "If I can make Miss Qing Xuan stop pestering you from now on, can you agree?" ”
Qing Xuan, who thought she was just an audience, suddenly panicked, and she hurriedly raised her hand to speak: "Ah? I disagree! Why do you want to involve me? ”
The inexplicable proposal caused everyone to laugh, and Qing Xuan's blank expression made people laugh even more.
But the clown emperor's eyebrows, which should have been fighting with a serious expression, suddenly moved for half a minute, he touched his chin thoughtfully, raised his eyelids and glanced at the world.
"Really?"
"Seriously."
The two of them talked to each other as if no one was around, and reached some kind of absurd consensus on this ridiculous proposal.
"Alas, alas! I'll say okay first, I don't agree! Qing Xuan is also a big person, no matter whether she is sincere to the Clown Emperor or purely for fun, so straightforward to impose a rule, of course she can't be compromised so easily: "How do you decide if you like it, anyway, I won't listen to any of you's advice, don't think about it!" ”
I'm more biased towards Qingxuan, this matter is very unfair to her, she is completely an innocent person who has been brought in out of thin air to be restrained.
But the Clown Emperor was unmoved, he stood up and looked directly at the world; Although the expression was not pleasant, he agreed to the matter: "Good! Then you decide to keep this woman away from me, and I will give up a skill. ”
"Clown Emperor, you ......!" Qing Xuan angrily pointed at the Clown Emperor and wanted to say something, but in the end he just stomped his feet and left the conference room angrily with his sleeves.
The sudden stiff atmosphere made us onlookers a little confused, and everyone came to join in the fun with a relaxed mood, no one expected that things would be so big.
The straight-hearted old Bai couldn't stand it, stood up and asked in a questioning tone: "It's not ......, what are you doing here?" Just to make the Clown Emperor a skill necessary to do this? How much good can cold as cold give? Is it worth it for you to hurt so much? ”
That's true, although Luo Qian Han is a difficult master, but the Clown Emperor is not a fuel-efficient lamp, just let a skill at most increase the win rate of Luo Qian Han by a few percentage points, and the overall odds will not fluctuate too much, so even if Leng Ruo Bing Frost will really take out some of the benefits to buy us, it will not be too expensive.
So the essence of this matter is not as simple as a skill concession or not, it is just an excuse on the surface.
In the past, this kind of thing was definitely not something that a young man like me could understand, but after following the sea for a long time, I have learned a lot, and I can more or less know some reasons for doing so.
Since he invested in Haizong with Shi Chunqiu, his identity is not only a protector, but a dark shareholder who can separate Haizong from the sea; Grasping as much equity and initiative as possible can make the sea gradually maintain its awe for him, and stabilizing the sea is equivalent to stabilizing our old batch of sea backbones.
Although the game that Haizong now has is very valuable, and the market value is even more generous, he is not a person who will be so attracted by these things, and his ultimate goal is still the original intention of coming to Haizong - Xiaoai.
Therefore, he asked the Clown Emperor to let a skill obtain a cold benefit is small, and it is true to take this opportunity to show his power and courage, to put it bluntly, it is actually the three fires of the new official.
It's not that I think things are too complicated, but because what he does is too obvious, this kind of thing that can be talked about with the clown emperor in private has to be brought to the surface, it seems that we are the hall masters to make a judgment, but in fact, it is to make an example for us to understand a truth - Hai Zong now has half of the right to speak, no matter how capable we are, we must obey his orders, otherwise he has a hundred ways to target us.
The Clown Emperor also saw the thoughts of Yu Shi Chunqiu, and just took this opportunity to ask Yu Shi Chunqiu to help him get rid of Qing Xuan's entanglement; But he understands that this proposal with Shi Chunqiu is definitely mixed with personal feelings, and if he loses because he has conceded a skill, he will have a handle to criticize him.
The Clown Emperor's side is one thing, and the other side is something I've been worried about.
Xiao Wang.
I sat opposite Xiao Wang, his face was very ugly at the moment, he had always been good at speaking, he didn't say a word since just now, just sat there and listened silently, but the gloomy clouds between his eyebrows gathered more and more.
Although we all tacitly kept Xiao Wang's thoughts secret, the careful helpers who kept it safe saw that Xiao Wang had a good impression of Xiao Ai, and it was inevitable that more rumors would flow into the ears of the spring and autumn of the world.
This ostensible negotiation of the retreat of the allies is actually the spearhead of Shi Chunqiu, if this guy really has other tricks, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to Xiao Wang in the future.
It's not convenient for me to participate in the latter things, the sea took the three of you and the Clown Emperor to entertain the visiting Leng Ruoshuang, I don't know what conditions were discussed, I just asked the Clown Emperor which skill he caught.
"I compromised the [Soul Blade]."
The Clown Emperor said it lightly, and he looked like he didn't care about himself.
"? You are crazy? Wouldn't it be good for you to have a [Trap] or a [Hidden Box]? Directly let away such a key life-saving skill??? ”
Their letting skill is not simply giving up this skill, the [Minglan Mine] in the southeast of the Imperial City that they have directly ceded is cold as ice and frost to directly give up the three-day mining right of the [Minglan Mine] owned by their gang, and the result of such a big negotiation is that the Clown Emperor not only gives up a skill, but also determines his own professional skill.
In other words, if the normal class can carry ten professional skills, then the Clown Emperor can only carry nine, giving up a definite skill and a skill position.
However, 80% of all the income from mining in the past three days has to be given to him, which is not a small amount.
"How could they exchange such a large amount of money for a small skill for me," the Clown Emperor shook his head helplessly, "Don't worry, this skill is not very useful when dealing with Luo Qian Han, and I have also considered it." ”
"Then you ......, what are the chances of winning now?"
“……”
He didn't answer, but drank the wine in his hand, and for a moment I didn't know whether to sympathize with him or laugh at him.
"Do your best."
The wine glass was poured out, but it was a general answer that did not fit his confidence.
I stood up and lifted the flask to fill it for him, not forgetting to joke in my mouth: "If you can win a skill and fall to Qianhan, then I really have to recognize you as a big brother." ”
"Hehe, what did you say?" He slowly picked up the wine glass, and the melancholy just now was swept away, and his sly smile was full of pride.
I picked up the wine glass and held it gently with him, and my eyebrows fluttered and affirmed: "Yes!" ”
"Okay, even if it's to accept you as a little brother, I have to give him a good place!"
A pot of wine bottomed out, and the unfinished clown emperor turned his head and beckoned NPC Xiao Er to come up again.
"What about Qing Xuan?"
The question was a bit out of place, but I couldn't resist asking.
The Clown Emperor's expression suddenly became much more embarrassed, he paused for a few seconds with his wandering eyes, and said, "Tell Shi Chunqiu that he is responsible for handling it, and Qing Xuan will not come to pester me again in the future." ”
"Of course she won't pester you anymore." I put the wine glass on the table and opened a message to show him: "Qing Xuan has withdrawn from the gang." ”
Hearing the news, the Clown Emperor hesitated for a moment, but soon returned to normal, he leaned back in the chair and hugged his arms to his chest, with a nonchalant expression: "Isn't that good?" After that, I was pure. ”
Since the clown emperor didn't say so, then I don't have the emperor's leisure to be in a hurry with the eunuchs: "Whatever you want, I'm just giving you a wake-up call." ”
Although he looked indifferent, he must still have some thoughts more or less, so when he heard what I said, he couldn't help but ask, "Remind me of what?" Tell me about it. ”
"Qing Xuan was entangled by the Black Sky Society, and he happened to be rescued by you before he entered the sea column; Once she gets out of the sea column, she will inevitably be troubled by the dark sky without support. ”
"And then? What does this have to do with me? The Clown Emperor tried his best to express his indifference, but the more this happened, the more I felt that he was weak: "Besides, although the Black Sky Club is a bunch of idlers, it won't be okay to keep staring at a woman, right?" Taking 10,000 steps back, even if they really had the heart to entangle Qing Xuan, how could they know Qing Xuan's whereabouts? How do I find out about her? ”
I didn't continue to answer his questions, I just drank the glass of wine in my hand, placed it heavily on the table, and stared at him with sharp eyes.
The two of them were silent and kept looking at each other, which was in stark contrast to the drinking and singing next to them, as if they were separating the two worlds.
At first he continued to remain unconcerned, but gradually he realized that something was wrong, and finally he glanced at the table in front of him and thought, and finally understood what I was saying.
"Do you mean to say that the Spring and Autumn Period of the World is the Qing Xuan who betrayed the dynamics to the Black Sky Society!?"
I nodded.
The Clown Emperor was stunned, half-open and didn't know what to say, and after a moment he got up and turned his head to go out.
I leaned over and grabbed him by the sleeve, "Where are you going?" ”
He looked back at me, his nose wrinkled like a lion: "Where else can I go?" Go find the dog thing with the world and ask for clarification! ”
"Don't you care about Qing Xuan?"
"I ......," he hesitated, then shook his head and shook off my hand, "I really don't care about her, but I can't watch others suffer this grievance because of me for no reason!" Even more intolerant of the despicable virtue of the Spring and Autumn Period! ”
"Do you have proof?"
As he reached the door, I shouted at him to stop his steps, and the loud volume caused the players to look at him.
I put the gold coins on the table, went around the table and dragged the Clown Emperor out of the tavern.
"It doesn't matter to me what you think about Qing Xuan, it doesn't matter to me whether Qing Xuan is sincere or playful, but Qing Xuan is innocent in this matter, I don't want such a good girl to end up being threatened to quit the gang or even quit the game, this is not only unfair to her, but also our inhumane result."
The Clown Emperor stood there to calm himself, and after a few deep breaths, he calmed down a little, raised his head and asked: "I know that Yu Shi Chunqiu is taking the opportunity to target me, but I didn't mean to hurt Qing Xuan's ......, although she is indeed a little anno......ying, but!" But she didn't hurt anyone. ”
"If you know, it's good." I patted him on the shoulder, and didn't continue to fall into the well to blame him: "He Shi Chunqiu wants to stabilize his position, and the ranking of the competition has nothing to do with him, what he can do is to make a fool of you, who is also a protector of the Fa, and then take this opportunity to step on you to praise yourself; You don't have any emotions now, you don't have any impulses, play well, all you have to do is win and fall into the cold. ”
He was just about to say something, but I smiled and waved my hand to signal that he didn't need to say much: "Don't worry, Qingxuan has me to take care of, I can't watch you be indifferent to the bad reputation of the world." ”
The wind blew through the canopy of the trees overhead, and the fallen leaves fell on the ground and on the NPC stalls that set up their stalls.
"Hehe......" Clown Emperor touched his head, and finally smiled with relief: "...... Thank you. ”
