The little carpenter's flat tone made a burst of ecstasy welling up in the heart of the master of color ringing.

The great monk hadn't been so excited for a long time, he looked at the little carpenter with a look of hope, and said with anticipation: "What is your winning rate against that guy now?" ”

The little carpenter led him into the courtyard, until he came to the table, asked the big monk to sit down, and then sent Gu Baiguo to pour tea, and when the people were far away, he said slowly: "It's still thirty percent." ”

Yes?

When the great monk heard this, his face fell directly and said, "Why? The ancient aura of Qingzhou Ding, haven't you refined it yet? ”

The little carpenter said calmly, "I have melted some of it, but I haven't completely turned it into my own ......."

The great monk looked around for a while, and then said, "I heard that you are in the middle of this Dongting Lake, discussing the philosophy of life and the mysteries of the universe with the Dongting Black Dragon, isn't it helpful to you?" ”

The little carpenter smiled and said, "Yes, of course there are some, after all, as a higher level of creature, the true dragon's understanding of this world is much stronger than that of us mortals, but these are helpful for cultivation, but they are useless for fighting with people......"

The great monk asked, "Can you ask the black dragon to come and help you?" ”

The little carpenter shook his head and said, "No, it has its own affairs, and it generally chooses a neutral attitude towards the struggles in the world, and it will not change anything because of me......"

The true dragon has always been in a relatively detached state, and in a way, it looks at humans as humans look at ants.

Of course, this metaphor is not very appropriate, but it can probably explain the position expressed after the incident.

This position will not change much because of the relationship between the little carpenter and it.

After hearing this, the great monk's face immediately darkened.

He asked, "Then you still said that you were going to face the Liang Gong Emperor?" In your state, didn't you just give away people's heads in the past? ”

The little carpenter looked very indifferent, and even asked with interest: "Master, do you think I can't defeat the Lianggong Emperor?" ”

The great monk said: "Don't fight with me, I am a hundred times stronger than you when it comes to bickering-you also said just now, your victory rate against him is only 30% ......"

The little carpenter sighed and said, "The Lianggong Imperial Monarch arrived at that peak before me, and as for how high that peak is, I haven't climbed it yet, so I can't grasp the distance between them...... Whether it's 30 percent, or 70 percent, or 10 percent, these are just numbers, I have a way to win him, but whether I can win or not, I will only know if I have tried......"

The great monk couldn't help but roll his eyes again and said, "Can you not play with an old monk who studies Zen all day?" Don't say that vague thing, and tell me seriously. ”

The little carpenter couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the fat monk was in a hurry.

After laughing, he restrained his happy expression, so as not to anger the great monk in front of him, and then said: "To put it simply, I vaguely touched a certain situation, if I can reach the other side, although I can't say that I can defeat the Lianggong Emperor, but self-preservation is no problem, but when will I be able to reach the other side?" This time may be a few years, maybe a dozen years or even decades, or ...... The day when he faced the Suzumiya Palace. ”

The great monk stared at him and asked, "When you see the Liang Gong Emperor, you will be able to reach the other side?" ”

The little carpenter shook his head and said, "Seeing him is only the first step, how to go next, I have some vague ideas, but I'm sorry, I can't share this mysterious thing with you, because there is no way to describe it in words - you can understand this state, master?" ”

When the great monk heard this, he didn't reply, but moved his gaze to the three human-shaped wood carvings of equal proportions next to him.

This humanoid wood carving is so vivid and lifelike that if you don't look closely, you'll even think that it's the best in the world, just standing in front of you.

However, the faces of these three people are still a little blurry, especially the eyes, although they have been roughly carved, but there are still some unfinished parts of the specific demeanor......

Seeing this, the great monk was thoughtful.

He turned back and asked the little carpenter, "Still no news from them?" ”

The little carpenter asked, "Who?" ”

The great monk said: "Luo Eighteen, Li Daozi and Qu Yang, I heard that these three people have fallen into this immaculate hole......

The little carpenter shook his head and said no.

The great monk sighed, not knowing what to say.

The geniuses who emerged during the Republic of China have "fallen" here one after another, is it that God wants to exterminate my China?

Suddenly, he felt an indescribable discouragement.

After a while, he asked again, "Speaking of you, have you decided to face the Lianggong Emperor?" ”

The little carpenter nodded and said yes.

The great monk didn't question any more, but asked, "Then will I find someone to reply now?" Or do you write a letter back in person? ”

The little carpenter thought for a moment and asked, "August fifteen?" How long is it until now? ”

The great monk said: "Two months. ”

The little carpenter asked, "Where is the East China Sea?" ”

The great monk said, "Bird and Flower Island." ”

The little carpenter asked, "Where is Bird and Flower Island?" ”

The great monk said: "I specially asked someone to check, probably an island a few hundred miles east of the mouth of the Yangtze River, which belongs to Zhoushan, but it is still close to the Ten Miles Ocean......

The little carpenter pondered for a while and said, "No wonder that old thing has been a demigod for so many years, and he has never made a breakthrough—he wants someone to force and stimulate him and let him go one step closer, but he also hides his thoughts, afraid that I will lead the Chinese dragon veins and the momentum of the mountains and rivers to bombard him, so as not to put his life in danger...... Tut-tut, the old guy seems unattainable, but in the end, he still spares his life and wants to retain a sense of security......"

The great monk listened and said, "Otherwise, I'll help you re-agree on the location of the decisive battle?" That guy thinks he is superior to his predecessors, so it stands to reason that he should nod his head and agree. ”

But the little carpenter laughed, and said, "No, that's it, just right." ”

The great monk was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

The little carpenter said: "When I was before, I felt that the cultivation and realm of the demigods were completely different from mortals, standing tall, and thinking about seeing far away, what was hidden in my heart was the world, and even the unknowable starry sky above our heads, but now he actually took the initiative to show weakness and expressed his fear, although it was only a little, but it also gave me a glimpse of the qi to defeat him......"

The great monk asked, "Then how confident do you have now?" ”

The little carpenter raised three fingers and said, "It's still thirty percent!" ”

This time, the great monk rolled his eyes in anger, and said angrily: "You, a little benefactor, always joke with the old man - it was thirty percent before, and now it is still thirty percent, what is going on?" ”

The little carpenter shrugged his shoulders and said, "The thirty percent I said before is actually stupid, and I brag to you - the current thirty percent is solid and not discounted." ”

The master of the abstinence who has been fighting for a lifetime and enlightening countless mortals finally feels that his IQ is being crushed at this moment, what is going on.

He didn't talk to the little carpenter anymore, but said, "Just tell me, what should I do?" ”

At this time, Gu Baiguo made tea and came over, and the little carpenter invited the master of the color precept to drink tea, and he said calmly: "Don't worry, wait a minute, just like you said, there are countless heroes in the world, not without strong people, but they all pretend to be ostriches, and refuse to come out, and scare those people, and mix the water, so that those people can know a 'rise and fall in the world, the husband is responsible', maybe when I die, someone can stand up and take my baton......"

When he said this, Gu Baiguo, who was pouring tea for the little carpenter next to him, shook his hand and almost poured the tea onto the little carpenter's arm.

The little carpenter's eyes were quick, and he grabbed Gu Baiguo's hand.

He smiled faintly: "Don't panic, I'm just assuming, I won't necessarily die......"

Gu Baiguo lowered his head, bit his lip, and did not speak.

The little carpenter took the teapot in her hand and said, "I'll come, you go and rest, such a good tea, if it is spilled, what a pity......"

The master of the ring took the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Good tea." ”

The little carpenter continued: "When it is early August, pass me the news that I will go over and meet it. ”

"Good!" The master nodded, then took a long breath, pointed to the empty teacup and said, "What is the name of this tea?" ”

The little carpenter replied, "Nine thousand Tieguanyin." ”

Hearing this, the master said, "Yes, it's really good—do you have any more?" Give me a little, after eating your tea, I'm afraid I'll miss it for the rest of my life, you have to prepare a little bit for me......"

The little carpenter looked reluctant and said, "It's really not much, let's go back and give you two taels." ”

The master pointed to the teapot and said, "Then pour me another cup." ”

The little carpenter smiled and said, "Let's give you the whole pot of tea, I have a lot of inspiration, so I won't entertain you yet, hurry up and take advantage of this time to get the wood carving out, which can be regarded as leaving something for this world." ”

He got up and walked towards the wood carving, then with a carving knife in his right hand and a rag in his left, he stared at the statue on the far left, and fell into deep thought.

This posture seems to be settled in an instant.

While drinking tea, the great monk looked at the little carpenter's carving, and found that he was so engaged in the work in his hands that he completely forgot that there was such a guest.

In the distance, Gu Baiguo stared at the little carpenter at work, but he was thinking about another thing.

A month and a half, not too much, no less.

In addition to these three statues, it may also help him leave something else in this world.

In the evening, you have to work harder......

Otherwise, agree to his embarrassing posture?

The master of the ring color stayed in this small courtyard for a long time, and when it was getting late, he saw that the little carpenter seemed to have forgotten him, and Gu Baiguo here had a posture of not caring about food, and finally couldn't stay anymore, and after finding Gu Baiguo to fulfill the promise of the little carpenter's "two taels of tea", he did not disturb the little carpenter and left on his own.

When he walked to the gate of the small courtyard, he couldn't help but look back and take a look.

At this time, he found that the statue of the Gu King Luo Eighteen seemed to have been completed, and there was a divine light bursting out from his eyes, as if he had life......

Creation!

In the future, I am afraid that there will be no such craftsmen in the world.

He shouldn't have to bear this......
