Chapter 857: Matters of the Heart
After leaving Wansong Villa, Mao Eighteen and his group were still happily discussing the previous play, and presumably the legend of Ding Peng was also circulating in Wansong Villa at this time.
"Old eight, it feels good to be a celebrity, right?"
Yongye was originally not interested in the cooperation between Mao Eighteen and Fuyun, but at this time he had fully accepted this result, listening to his jokes, Mao Eighteen replied with a faint smile.
"What does this have to do with me, it's Ding Peng who is famous, not me Mao Eighteen."
Mao Eighteen's words made Yongye stunned for a moment, but then his demeanor changed, and after a thoughtful glance at Mao Eighteen, he lowered his voice and said.
"Is that what you're for?"
Mao Eighteen glanced at him and didn't answer the question, but in his heart he agreed with the awakening of the eternal night, yes, this was his purpose.
Mao 18 or 2333 is not very famous among the huge heroes, even if he wins the reward of the server's lifetime achievement, but it is only a passing moment, not worth mentioning, and in the long river of history, at most he is a pioneer, because there will be more such lifetime achievements in the future.
But Ding Peng is different, this is a popular classic character in the original book, a well-known character, Ding Peng's legend is more influential than the legend of his Mao 18 or 2333, and it is more in line with the sense of identity in the hearts of players who like martial arts.
Yongye's expression at this time was very unnatural, and Mao Eighteen smiled when he saw this.
"Don't you really want to stir up a legend of the stars?"
Mao Eighteen's words made Eternal Night turn his head to look at him suddenly, his eyes were full of surprise, and after a while, Eternal Night smiled, the smile was very insidious, he guessed Mao Eighteen's thoughts, and his heart also attached great importance to it.
Looking at him like this, Mao Shibai shook his head and smiled.
"Looks like you still don't understand!"
Eternal Night didn't smile this time, but said calmly.
"Why don't I understand, I understand what you mean, since the player's name is hidden in Haoxia, then I can be Sikong Xingxing, or Lu Xiaofeng, or Ximen Blowing Snow, isn't it?"
Mao 18 nodded, but did not answer, for he knew that Eternal Night had only thought of one aspect of it from the play he had done, but it was only one aspect of his own infinite whimsy.
After everyone returned to Wuzheng Villa, they started a new round of bat legend clearance, and at this time, everything that happened in Wansong Villa has gradually spread to the community, whether it is written records or videos as evidence, the legend of Ding Peng began to circulate on major forums, and even more, someone directly pointed out that 2333 is the identity of Ding Peng, the full moon scimitar.
For the few people who knew Ding Peng's true identity, they were all inexplicably surprised and puzzled after learning the news, but they were all extremely smart people, and they quickly guessed Mao Shiba's true thoughts about doing this, and then the rest could only be amazed.
When the news reached the Broken Halberd Shensha, the Broken Halberd Shensha was stunned for a moment, but then fell into an hour-long contemplation, when the red moon and the heavenly clouds on the side were standing a little impatient, the Broken Halberd Shensha slowly opened his eyes and sighed.
"I can't imagine that there is such a master among the heroes!"
"Boss, what do you mean?"
Hongyue and Tiansha Liuyun came up, and Shen Sha glanced at him twice, and with a faint smile, he roughly analyzed the cause and effect of this matter, and Tiansha Liuyun was taken aback after hearing it, and said.
"In other words, from now on, that 2333 is Ding Peng?"
However, the words of the heavenly clouds made Hongyue glance at him with disdain, thinking to himself, you are a simple-minded person, and said to Shen Sha at the moment.
"I think Ding Peng is just one of his many identities."
Broken Halberd Shen Sha nodded slightly and continued.
"That's true, in the hearts of the players of Wansong Villa, he 2333 is Ding Peng, but he is in other places, maybe there will continue to be other legends, let's wait and see!"
The same topic also appeared on Ouyang Ke and Fluttershy's side, Ouyang Ke's news was brought by Tao Zi'an, who was in charge of intelligence in Silverwing Villa, and when Tao Zi'an hurriedly reported the news to Ouyang Ke, Ouyang Ke also fell into deep thought, and also came to the same conclusion as Halberd Shen Sha after an hour.
However, the difference is that because Ouyang Ke sent people to hunt down and disturb Mao Shibai and others, the positions of the two sides have turned friends into enemies, and now Mao Shibai has made a name for himself, which is not good news for Ouyang Ke.
"Is there any progress on Xiaoxiao's side?"
Tao Zi'an has always been responsible for this matter, so Tao Zi'an said at this time.
"No, they had a few fights with Mao Eighteen's gang, but they didn't get anything cheap, but they pushed the Red Chamber Guild to Mao Eighteen's side."
Tao Zi'an replied truthfully, he has nothing to hide about this kind of thing, although there is a problem in his work, but Brother Xiao, Monkey and others are not his subordinates, if you want to talk about the competition in the guild, it should also be the relationship between Tao Zi'an and the head of the main 1st regiment of the 18th National Congress.
"Withdraw them."
Ouyang Ke thought about it and gave instructions, Tao Zi'an didn't say anything, nodded and said that he would carry it out, until today she still remembers the battle when she was defeated under Mao Eighteen, although today he can already admit that Mao Eighteen is indeed more powerful than him, and even more powerful than the Eighteenth Congress, but as a member of the Wealthy Guild, he has seen too many top masters and finally bow to the Wealthy Guild, so he has never felt that this Mao Eighteen can turn the sky.
Ouyang Ke left after a few simple explanations, and at the same time, on the side of Xiangyang City, Fluttershy had already received the news at this time, and she and Danyun had a deeper understanding of the whole story, after all, they had already guessed that Mao Shiba's script for this Full Moon Scimitar was a rehearsal for the Xiangyang City Martial Arts Conference later.
However, at this time, Danyun put forward his own opinion.
"Now it seems that Mao Eighteen held this Xiangyang City Martial Arts Conference, I'm afraid it was not specifically for us, but for himself."
Danyun's words were uttered from the guild's standpoint, and Fluttershy nodded slightly, she had no doubt about it, but the difference was that Fluttershy had always felt that she was sorry for Mao Eighteen in this matter, and it was because of her that Mao Eighteen and the three brothers Deng had come to this point.
"Take what you need, he is not obligated to help us for free."
Fluttershy's words make Danyun shake her head and continue.
"Have you ever thought about it, if the Xiangyang City Martial Arts Conference is successfully held, who will be the real beneficiary?"
Danyun's question startles Fluttershy, but she thinks hard for a moment before coming up with an answer that shocks her.
In the story of the Condor Heroes, there is only one real beneficiary of the scene of the Xiangyang City Martial Arts Conference, and that is Huang Rong, both from the description and from the reader's point of view.
Huang Rong is worthy of being the first heroine of the Golden Book, after the martial arts conference, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu not only did not break into the hall, but parted ways because of Huang Rong's words, Xiaolongnu was humiliated, Yang Guo joined the Dajin account, and because of Yang Guo's father Yang Kang, before the martial arts conference was held, he was not favored by the martial arts people from all parties who were invited to the meeting, and even suffered from cold eyes.
Fluttershy's heart is not very tangled at this moment, but at least it gradually begins to have some troubles, she knows that Danyun has always been for the guild, and because of this, Danyun's words Fluttershy has always listened carefully to absorb the opinions of them, and does not suspect that he has any selfish intentions, if he is selfish, it is because he sees himself and the guild too important.
Fluttershy's mind gradually becomes more and more thoughtful. Through the phone call with Fluttershy, Mao XVIII knows that the date of going to Xiangyang City is the last two days, and during these two days, the number of players who have come to add him as friends has suddenly increased, and almost all of them have come because of Ding Peng, which makes Mao XVIII a little annoyed.
During the dungeon battle, seeing that Mao Eighteen suddenly stopped again, Yongye immediately laughed on the side.
"Eighth child, why is it that a beautiful woman is coming to give her a hug?"
Mao Eighteen glared at him, turned off a few system messages for adding friends, and then threw himself into the battle again, watching him come back, Rong Rong also smiled.
"Crows are so popular!"
Mao Shibai was very helpless, although it was indeed a good thing to be famous, but he never wanted to be really famous, otherwise he would not have pretended to be Ding Peng's identity.
After the dungeon was finished and the actual combat experience and rewards were in hand, everyone left the dungeon and saw the face of the tiger as soon as they came outside.
In the past two days, the tiger has also sent a lot of news, and the words are full of amazement, eager to hug Mao Eighteen's thigh tightly, and under the words, he also hints that he wants to go to a few more copies with Mao Eighteen, and the reward can be all for him, as long as he can deepen the relationship between them.
Mao 18 would not refuse the goodwill released by the tiger, but the tiger's intention was too obvious, he couldn't wait to disclose his relationship with "Ding Peng" to the whole world, so that his Red Chamber Guild could seize power in Wuzheng Villa with the legend of Ding Peng, but how could Mao 18 do what he wanted, or how could Mao 18 let himself be bound by a small Ding Peng?
So Mao 18 has politely declined the tiger's kindness many times, of course, he didn't say anything, just asked the other party not to be in a hurry, and he will only come to Japan.
And today the tiger personally brought people to wait for the dungeon, looking at their posture, it seems that they have been waiting for a while, which can be described as a warm welcome, Mao Shibai said with a smile.
"Tiger, you're too polite."
When the tiger saw Mao Shibai, he immediately brought someone to greet him, and the people next to him also admired Mao Shiba, so they almost didn't come up with a notebook to ask for an autograph.
It turned out that the tiger's intention today was not to find Mao Eighteen to go to the next copy, but to have something else important.
"Starling, it seems that the Silver Wing Villa has recalled Brother Xiao's people, but before that Brother Xiao left, he said that this matter is not over."
Just for this?
Mao Eighteen glanced at the tiger with some surprise, although the tiger took refuge on his side as a last resort, but he thought that the tiger's heart was actually very unhappy with the style of Silver Wing Villa, so he was just adding fuel to the fire, and the tiger was preconceived.
"That's right, I discussed it with my brothers, and I made a decision, it depends on what you mean, starling."
Seeing the tiger's solemn expression, Mao Shibai also put away his smile at this time and asked.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"We want to serve you as the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance."
As soon as the tiger's words fell, several players next to him nodded, and in fact, one player interjected.
"Brothers pretty much mean that."
Mao Eighteen's brows immediately furrowed, and after thinking about it, he said.
"How can the leader of the martial arts alliance be so good, and besides, it's just your family, it's not enough!"
Mao Eighteen was not interested in this martial arts alliance leader at all, he knew that this group of people just wanted to borrow his name to make it easier, but this was obviously contrary to Mao Eighteen's philosophy, but he had a flash of inspiration in his mind at this time, but he had some new ideas, he might as well listen to it, maybe there would be an unexpected chance.
"How can it be just us, we also talked about this with the people from the Bird of Paradise Guild, and they said that if you come forward, starling, they will not object."
Mao Eighteen was shocked, how could this be?
Originally, Mao Eighteen didn't think that the famous hall he made in Wansong Villa would have such a far-reaching impact, but now it seems that in fact, the fame is completely reversed, not that he Mao Eighteen is famous for the classic role of Ding Peng, but because he played Ding Peng in 2333, he became famous.
The script of the Full Moon Scimitar has indeed received an unexpected response, and the forum has gone crazy about this matter in the past two days, almost all players are discussing the name of Ding Peng, although many people have said that 2333 is Ding Peng's news, but players are more interested in the connection between Ding Peng and Wansong Villa and the Full Moon Scimitar, after all, this is the focus of the topic discussion.
But now from the tiger's words, Mao Eighteen feels that this is not the case at all.
"Then it's just the two of you, if I'm right, there are three other guilds in Wuzheng Villa besides the two of you, and at least half of the players who haven't joined the guild are still in the right place."
Mao Eighteen's words made the tiger and the players beside him laugh, and the smile did not reduce the admiration for Mao Eighteen, and then the tiger said.
"Starling, you may not know that you haven't fought much siege warfare, but now the people who talk about you in Wuzheng Villa are definitely not less than eighty percent, and almost everyone wants to know you, there may be too many people we don't know, but among the major guilds, they all want to invite you to join their guilds, as long as you join, at least more than half of the players can be called on to defect."
Mao Shibai frowned, thinking that this is the celebrity effect, but it shouldn't be so sensational, after all, in Mao Shiba's understanding, the Full Moon Scimitar and Ding Peng are actually not many famous among many martial arts, and they are not very popular with readers, so Mao Shibai guessed that there may be some other reasons, but he couldn't think of it for a while.
After a few words temporarily sent the tiger chair man away, Ziyi on the side said.
"The martial arts alliance master is so honorable, why do you want to refuse?"
Mao Eighteen shook his head and said.
"There is no name and no division, and there is no name and no substance, what is the use of coming?"
As soon as these words came out, Rong Rong, Xiaodao and Ziyi didn't understand, but only Yongye knew what Mao Shibai was talking about, and he also smiled at the moment.
"Starling doesn't want a Ding Peng, he wants to leave a legend on the rivers and lakes everywhere he goes, a little Ding Peng can't represent our Eight Heroes!"
Yongye's words made Ziyi stunned for a moment, and then he looked Mao Eighteen up and down, and gradually understood some truth in his heart, but the knife on the side suddenly interjected.
"Starling, isn't that a goof?"
Xiaodao's words made Yongye and Mao Shibai stunned, and then looked at Xiaodao in some surprise, but they didn't expect that Rong Rong and Ziyi didn't understand the question, but Xiaodao was the first to figure it out.
"That's it, although everyone has decided that I am Ding Peng at the moment, am I Ding Peng, am I not, if I stand up and accept the scrutiny of all players, then I am destined to be Ding Peng in the future, which is not a good thing."
Mao Eighteen's words made Ziyi nod slightly, and she seemed to have figured it out, it was indeed very bad for this kind of label-like thing to be imposed on Mao Eighteen, but she couldn't say what was wrong.
Seeing that they were all thinking about this, Mao Shibai smiled and said.
"Okay, don't think about it, I have my own opinion on this matter, let's go, let's go find the puppet!"
After the tiger left, several people around him were a little sullen, because Mao Eighteen did not readily agree to their invitation to become the leader of the martial arts alliance, why did they want Mao Eighteen to be the leader of the martial arts alliance?
"Boss, we have to hurry up on this matter, but don't let the bird of paradise preempt it, so we can be passive."
One player said, and Tiger nodded, agreeing.
"Don't worry, I understand the reason, but we have to hurry up when we get in touch with the starling, but we also have to make preparations on our side."
"What's the preparation?"
The other player asked, and Tiger smiled sinisterly.
"Since the full moon scimitar over there is so well played, let's also play a play, let's call it ...... Ding Peng vs. Ximen blowing snow! "Tiger arranged a good show, and found a male player in white to win the snow in the city to play Ximen Blowing Snow, but this scene of Ding Peng vs. Ximen Blowing Snow in order to flatter Mao Eighteen was not arranged in advance, so when the show really started, it was just a cold scene, and even when the tiger hurriedly sent a message to Mao Eighteen to let him come to the scene, Mao Eighteen just smiled contemptuously, and at this time his people were already on the way back to Xiangyang City.
Ding Peng vs. Ximen Blowing Snow, it's really a shame that the tiger can figure it out, who will watch such a play, no one will buy it, it can only be said that the tiger thinks too simply.
Mao Shibai and the others were indeed on the way back to Xiangyang City at this time, and Yongye also accompanied them, but he only accompanied him to the vicinity of Junshan and then made a detour back to the Shenhou Mansion.
The things that should be prepared have been prepared, and the communication with Fluttershy has already been completed, and this Xiangyang City Martial Arts Conference is bigger and more sensational in Mao Eighteen's heart than the scene in Wansong Villa, not because of the audience rate of these two books themselves, but because Mao Eighteen has planned to make this scene known to everyone in the world from the beginning.
"Old eight, if the person with red sleeves and incense dares to be unfavorable to you, you tell me, and I will pull the people from the Demon Sword Dao Guild to help you!"
Eternal Night's words made Mao Eighteen nod, he was indeed prepared for this trip, although he said that he helped Red Sleeves Tim Xiang, and then the possibility of Red Sleeves Adding Fragrance to fight back is not high, but Mao Eighteen knows that the principle is sometimes very terrifying, just like a religious creed, if it is too drilly, it will also cause chaos.
"Don't worry, if something really happens, you will definitely not be able to escape."
Mao Eighteen was very sinister when he said this, and he had a completely stunned expression, but Yongye didn't quarrel with Mao Eighteen this time, and seemed to be very satisfied with this feeling of being counted.
"Starling, the people of the Red Sleeves Fragrance Guild shouldn't be able to target us, right?"
Ziyi, who rarely spoke on such occasions, suddenly asked a question, and Mao Shibai hesitated a little after hearing it, in fact, he had been thinking about this question before, because he knew that this possibility was very high.
Now they are somewhat similar to the scene when Yang Guo took Xiaolongnu to participate in the martial arts conference in the Condor Heroes, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu appeared in Xiangyang City, first because his father was Yang Kang, and he suffered the cold eyes of martial arts people, and then because he was accused of defecting from the Quanzhen Sect to the Tomb Sect.
And today's Mao 18 actually has such a situation, in summary, it is two words - face, if you can't put down your face, you have to stick to the principle, then no matter whether Mao 18 can help the red sleeves to tide over the difficulties, the relationship between them will not be half an inch.
"Relax, besides, we don't rely on the big tree of the Wealthy Guild, and when this is over, we will leave immediately!"
On the way from Wansong Villa to Junshan, Mao Eighteen and Fuyun met and explained a few words to him, and then said goodbye to each other in Junshan and Yongye, and waited until Junshan stepped on the road back to Xiangyang City from Junshan for more than an hour.
Eternal Night is gone, the atmosphere in the team is a little depressing, although Mao Eighteen often talks in the team, but Mao Eighteen's personality is not as lively as Eternal Night and Xiaodao and Rong Rong, so when Mao Eighteen and Ziyi are in the team, Xiaodao and Rong Rong are very close to Mao Eighteen, but they don't want to speak much, and the two of them are not masters of topics, so every time the topic is found by Yongye.
Along the way, everyone just chatted briefly for a word or two, and when they entered the boundary of Xiangyang City, they soon saw a familiar figure that they hadn't seen for a long time at the boundary of the appointment.
When Danyun saw Mao Eighteen, he walked over with a smile on his face, and to Mao Eighteen's surprise, Danyun came alone, and he didn't bring brothers from other guilds.
Perhaps seeing that Mao Shibai was looking for someone else, Danyun smiled at the moment.
"There's no one, I'm here alone, why, don't believe in my strength?"
Mao Eighteen hurriedly turned his head to him and said with a smile.
"How can you!"
At the moment of the conversation, Mao Eighteen guessed the reason why Danyun came alone, it seems that his reputation as the 2333 in the Red Sleeves Tianxiang Guild is not as beautiful as the outside world, as for who revealed the news, Mao Eighteen is actually quite clear.
"Let's go, I'll accompany you back to the city."
Danyun behaved very friendly, although it was said that this was a performance of treating Mao 18 and the others as VIPs rather than his own, but his proper treatment of people made Mao 18 and the others feel as warm as the wind, and even Xiaodao and Rong Rong felt that Danyun was completely different from Fluttershy, Lao Deng and others.
Along the way, Mao 18 asked Danyun about Danyun's preparations now, and Danyun said.
"We are all ready for what you asked us to prepare, but after all, Xiangyang City is a gathering place for all forces, so we also have to prepare for both."
Danyun's words made Mao Shibai nod, which he also took into account when he was planning, that is, Xiangyang City was under the watchful eye of the three surrounding wealthy guilds.
The Demon Sword Dao of the Shenhou Mansion, the Holy Light Salvation of Taihu Lake, and the Silver Wing Villa of Danxia Mountain, these three major guilds are not far from Xiangyang City, and if they find that something is wrong with Xiangyang City, they will also be very timely if they want to rush to support or make trouble.
Danyun stared at Mao Eighteen, as if he wanted to hear what Mao Eighteen thought, but Mao Eighteen just smiled faintly.
"Don't worry, they love face very much, and they won't let themselves be reduced to aliens."
Mao Eighteen's words made Dan Yun stunned for a moment, but then he understood, and even pointed at Mao Eighteen and said that he was shrewd, but Mao Eighteen did not laugh, because he knew that in addition to the problems that Dan Yun thought of and raised at the moment, there were actually many problems, but some were secondary, that is, some coincidences were needed to promote, and these coincidences Mao Eighteen did not prevent them, because he knew that if a variable occurred, even if he had a plan B, it would be useless.
Mao 18 introduced Rong Rong and the others to Dan Yun, and made Dan Yun look at Rong Rong a few more times, apparently Fluttershy had already told him Rong Rong's identity, originally Mao 18 thought that Dan Yun would say something when he looked at Rong Rong, but Dan Yun didn't say anything, but looked at Ziyi and the knife, which made Mao 18 a little disappointed.
Before entering the city, Danyun found an opportunity to say a word to Mao 18 alone.
"Fluttershy and I will remember you for coming, but I hope you'll be considerate of the mix of red sleeves and sweets."
Danyun's words were originally only said to Mao Shiba, but Ziyi on the side heard it, and she interjected immediately.
"I always want others to be considerate of you, so who will be considerate of us?"
Ziyi's words made Mao Shibai and Danyun turn their heads to look at her, and Danyun didn't know what to say at this time, so he just said euphemistically again.
"I'm so sorry."
Regarding Danyun's apology, Mao Shibai didn't say anything.
After entering the city, he soon met Fluttershy and the others, but Deng didn't come, but a few female players and the main team of the Red Sleeves Fragrance Guild, and the reunion with Fluttershy was not eye-catching, Fluttershy behaved very well at this time, and Mao Eighteen simply said hello to her, and then asked about the master.
He knew that he had to deal with this master first before he could hold a martial arts conference.
