Chapter 72: Calculation
Let the people of the rivers and lakes kill each other, this batch of treasures is really a coincidence! It is not so much a coincidence, but that someone deliberately did it.
Rich and powerful, isn't this a matter of Prince Shang's words?
It seems that the prince of Shang wants to take advantage of the grievances of the rivers and lakes to make a big deal, and the more chaotic the rivers and lakes, the more he will be happy and profitable.
This trick is enough to damage, but also enough to hate! Use the people of the rivers and lakes to fight and get rid of these people.
The eagle falcon discovered this secret, and his face began to calm down, if Taiding's conspiracy succeeded, I don't know how many people in the world will die.
As the prince of Shang, it is not a good sign to regard those chivalrous warriors as a great trouble.
It is false that Taiding is tempted by the treasure, and it is true that he sees the treasure as bait.
Even if he harbors evil intentions, he dares to use his two apprentices as sacrifices, this is a disaster, he must not let this happen.
Since the falcon has a plan in his heart, he must be ruthless, otherwise the news will leak and the damage will be endless.
Eagle Falcon didn't leave the white tiger eye as a troublemaker, and after dealing with it, he set off to Diqiu, he needed help, so he could only find someone to implement the plan of drawing money from the bottom of the kettle.
The next morning, as soon as Wu Cidi came out of the door, he ran into Donghuang Yu.
"Brother Yu is early, have you seen my third brother and second brother?"
"Brother Xiang, Dongfang Xiong, and Brother Pregnancy have all gone far away, and it is estimated that it will take three or five days to come back, and Brother Xue will get familiar with the environment of Diqiu. β
"My two brothers never say goodbye without saying goodbye, is there something to keep secret?"
"Brother Wu has been in a bad mood recently, so naturally he rarely cares about things. Come on, come on, go to your room, I'll talk to you slowly. β
Wu Cidi thought about it for a while, didn't talk nonsense, and hurriedly led Donghuang Yu into the house.
Xue Jian walked in the market coming and going, although it was bustling and there were many items, his mind was no longer on the shouting of the vendors.
Xue Jian walked slowly for a long time, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, his body flashed, and he disappeared into the street.
"I'm looking for a cat, ma'am. β
"Cat, what cat?" asked a beautifully dressed woman, looking at Xue Jian.
"A cat that is favored by a lot of people. β
"You are looking for a cat, not me, and besides, the cat is not mine, so why do you ask me?" the woman was furious.
"One eagle didn't want two chicks to die, so he asked me to come to the cat, because cats have catlines, and it's time for it to do its job. β
"You're the Hinata, your whole family is Hinata!"
"Come with me. β
After the woman had finished scolding, she spoke again.
"You owe a lot of money to the fact that things are going well. β
As soon as Xue Jian came back, Donghuang Yu poured him tea diligently, and said with a smile and appreciation.
"This is a curse, and it is not enough to let go of joy. β
"Brother Wu has recovered a lot today, there will be no mistakes in the Jianghu Conference, and this is not worth laughing about?"
"I hope it is the same, but how can the scars in my heart not exist?"
"They are all going to be fathers, and they are still so pessimistic. β
"I'm just telling the truth. β
"Your truth is more sad than lies, I really don't understand that you who are middle-aged in a young man, do you have to be boring and annoying when you are mature?"
"If a loved one died and you experienced a dead end, you wouldn't be as innocent as you are now. β
"What is it to talk about death? But yes, this is the capital that you are proud of more than me. Donghuang Yu said helplessly.
"You are really endless, no wonder Donghuang Mingyue doesn't follow you all the way, even the Donghuang Court dislikes you, saying that you are too naΓ―ve. You are indeed not mature enough, you still need more experience!"
"It's young, isn't it called childish, okay?"
"To be young is to be childish. β
"Please, naivety is naivety, youth is young, naivety refers to mental ignorance, youth is physical unfamiliarity, please don't mix it up. β
"But I don't think you're familiar with you mentally or physically!"
Donghuang Yu was annoyed: "This is a strong word, isn't your body not as familiar as mine?"
"Although I am strong, I never reason, you are angry, and you are still a child's temper ......"
"I ...... I...... I take a sip of tea. β
Donghuang Yu swallowed his words and found an excuse to ease, he picked up the cup and drank a few big sips.
The eighth day of October has finally arrived, the sun is warm, and the weather is good.
In the center of the wide earth, there is a large stone platform the size of a ring, commonly known as the competition platform.
There was an empty garrison area within a radius of three feet on the edge of the contest platform, and fifty sturdy sergeants stood upright, apparently carrying out the duty of guarding the garrison.
The garrison area is surrounded by flags and floating fields, and 40,000 or 50,000 people go around the platform to respect or sit or stand, surrounding the Wutai in the core.
"Heroes and daughters from all directions, thank you for coming thousands of miles to participate in the first Jianghu Conference. I am the person in charge of this election elected by the court, various families, and various sects, and my name is Cheng Yuangong. β
A middle-aged man with a sword went up to the competition platform, bowed to the people of the Quartet, and then introduced it loudly.
"Everyone knows that heaven and earth are benevolent, there are three emperors first, the rule of the century, and then the five emperors, civilization and enlightenment, in order to adjust the yang and yin, and the people work and rest, thanks to the five elements. Since antiquities, things are gathered by like, people are divided by groups, matrilineal and paternal, and Ze has been eternal. The family name of the clan is the beginning, and the life is endless, and the difficulties and blessings are shared together, so as to become reconciled. Then the tribe was formed, the dignity and humility were orderly, and the monarch and the minister ruled the world to revitalize the temple. Twenty years ago, Sanshi took a single step in the rivers and lakes, trying to turn the tide and help the peril. Since then, there have been many gentlemen, justice and benevolence, and the scale has been widespread. Today, the next three points are the court of peace and prosperity of the people, the second is the family of good neighborliness and friendship, and the third is the rivers and lakes of helping the weak and the weak. The court, the family, and the rivers and lakes are now three-legged, indispensable, coexisting and shared, in order to adjust the glory of heaven and earth. According to the trend of the rivers and lakes, do benevolent and righteous acts, from now on, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes will be heroes, and the righteous warriors will be honored and disgraced. β
"The sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes are heroes, and the righteous warriors share the honor and disgrace ......"
Tens of thousands of people began to shout out in unison, and the sparks of justice in the rivers and lakes began to become a prairie fire, blooming in the entire land of China, and have continued since then.
Cheng Yuangong's mood at the moment is also extremely surging, the rivers and lakes are in emergency, these decades can be said to be unjustifiable, today it is not easy to unite as one, and the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes will be able to raise their eyebrows in the future.
He continued: "Everyone, the rivers and lakes are established, there must be conventions and rules, chivalrous righteousness and fighting injustice are the rules for the children of the rivers and lakes to live and live, but the rivers and lakes are big and unique, and it is inevitable to deal with grievances and hatreds. Especially in terms of unified scheduling and restraint and suppression, we all need to have a long-awaited leader to lead everyone, thanks to the common experience, we should now elect a hero of the rivers and lakes as the lord of the rivers and lakes, we can also be called the leader of the rivers and lakes alliance and the leader of the martial arts alliance. β
When the people below heard this, they all were in an uproar, and they all shouted excitedly.
Everyone wants to sit on this throne, but who dares to sit on it!
At this time, Zhong Yu staggered in, accompanied by Yibo, and then went straight to the competition platform and stood beside Cheng Yuangong.
Yibo and Zhong Yu bowed their hands to the surroundings, and in silence, Zhong Yu cleared the old man's throat and said: "Fellow benevolent and righteous people, I, Zhong Yu, have the honor to get acquainted with you today, which is really a blessing from the third generation. Zhong Yu is polite here. β
"I am a great businessman who fights Xia Ji with benevolence and righteousness, and I can have today's momentum, and I also rely on the help of righteous people. The king was grateful for the righteousness of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and cast a gold-inlaid jade alliance leader token as a congratulatory gift today, aiming to pass it on to the first alliance leader of the rivers and lakes to show recognition and attention. β
"Since the lord of the rivers and lakes is the leader of the honorable throne, it is inevitable that everyone will return, but what are the specific requirements, I can't say well. But there are principles that work. First, the leader of the Jianghu alliance must be a person from the rivers and lakes, and outsiders are not allowed to interfere; second, the reputation must be prominent, virtuous and respectable, and trustworthy; third, he must act uprightly and have no bad reputation; fourth, he must be strong in martial arts, otherwise he will not be able to convince the public, let alone help the weak; fifth, he must be talented, able to lead the crowd, and not afraid of life and death. β
"Between the above requirements, none of them is indispensable. Otherwise, I would not have given him this honor bestowed by the king. "Zhong Yu and Yi Bo stepped down.
Jiang Zimu then walked onto the competition platform and said loudly: "The rivers and lakes are established, the leader of the alliance is out, benevolence is born, and justice is done." I, Jiang Zimu, am on behalf of the eight ancient surnames to congratulate all the heroes, and I also agree with the status of the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes. β
When Gong Yuan saw that Jiang Zimu had stepped down, he said with a straight face: "The rivers and lakes are established, the leader of the alliance is out, the instructions of the prime minister, and the words of Brother Jiang, you can understand!"
"Understand ......"
A large crowd replied.
"Okay, in that case, let's all go on stage if we meet the requirements, let's screen them one by one, and then select the best alliance leader through a competition. β
