The patriarch wanted to tell Ye Yi about the competition in a few days, but he didn't expect that the group of unsuccessful people below would shake out all the things early.

He was worried that Ye Yi would hate himself for this reason and affect his follow-up development, so he took the initiative to find Ye Yi and said, "Three days later, the Ye family will hold a young talent selection competition, and I will assign you to the newcomer group." ”

"I'm really new to this situation."

Ye Yi did not object to the decision of the patriarch.

The patriarch was a little hesitant and said carefully, "There are many rules in the competition that exceed your expectations. It's not that ability doesn't mean you win. ”

"What are the rules?" Ye Yi asked.

"Rules ......"

The patriarch sighed and said, "Everyone has to enter a secret realm, because the abilities are different, and the passage to enter the secret realm is also different. ”

"So I've been assigned to the newcomer group because my current cultivation can only enter the newcomer group?"

Ye Yi was a little surprised.

The patriarch's honesty exceeded her expectations.

I thought this guy was going to fool around and lie about everything.

The patriarch saw that Ye Yi seemed to be a little dissatisfied with his decision, smiled awkwardly, and said: "Actually, I also hope that you can enter a higher group, but different groups have strength tests, but the more newcomer groups, the simpler the tasks assigned, and the more practical the benefits you get." ”

"I believe in you."

For you cannot say anything other than faith.

Ye Yi complained.

The patriarch smiled even more awkwardly, and even had a bad snack.

"Actually, we could have been better friends," the patriarch said, "Even if you are the daughter of the Great Elder, your importance to the Ye family is self-evident, and you can become the hope of the family to take off, and I will not have any misdeeds and calculations against you." ”

“……”

Ye Yi thought that this guy might have made a mistake.

However, the Ye family has always mixed true and false words, and she doesn't want to waste the so-called energy with this group of people, since they only want to calculate themselves, she simply wants to do it.

"After passing the newcomer competition, can I be given other benefits in addition to the prescribed benefits?"

"This ......"

The patriarch was a little surprised.

As the patriarch, he didn't know how many rising stars he had dealt with, but a newcomer as straightforward and direct as Ye Yi was-

"Don't you think you're not being humble at all?"

The patriarch tactfully pointed out the problem.

Ye Yi: "If you were tactful and modest, you wouldn't have so much trouble beyond expectations, wouldn't you?" ”

“…… So ......"

"I like to be a villain first and then a gentleman," Ye Yi said, "and only after there are enough villains can we sit on an equal footing and have an equal dialogue." ”

“…… You've blown my mind. ”

The patriarch was blunt.

Ye Yi was also unambiguous, and told the patriarch directly: "You are right, I am a person who is not very kind, but as far as I know, kind-hearted people are more likely to be sacrificed, and only unkind-hearted people can live better and better in this world full of calculations." At least, Ye Wudao is too vicious, so he lives well in the Ye family. ”

"This ......"

The patriarch was speechless.

Ye Yi saw that the patriarch did not dare to refute himself, and became more and more sure that the patriarch did indeed have some secrets hidden in his heart, smiled, and said: "Actually, I also know that it is difficult for you to do, you are now in the gap of power, and you don't know what you should do and what you should not do." As the patriarch of the Ye family, you hope that the Ye family will last for generations, but at the same time, you also hope that your position of power can never be shaken, and I, as well as my father, are unstable, right? ”

"Yes, you are indeed a destabilizing factor."

The patriarch was blunt.

Ye Yi's ability and Ye Wudao's ambition made him uneasy, and he felt uneasy from the bottom of his heart.

"Even knowing that you are absolutely impossible to usurp power, I still feel uneasy, because your power is too powerful, completely beyond my control, and I always unconsciously think about things that I shouldn't have to worry about."

"But you also have to know that we didn't mean to hurt you," Ye Yi said, "It seems that you are a patriarch, but in fact you are just a tool of the Ye family's power balance, we do not obey your orders on the surface, but in our bones we have made outstanding contributions to your weighing plan, so, patriarch, I suggest that you should be able to look at the problem calmly, don't always feel that we are calculating you, and don't always regard us as the biggest enemy!" ”

"You are not our enemy, who are our enemies?"

The patriarch asked suddenly.

Ye Yi was also shocked by the soul question, and then said with a smile: "No one is our enemy, greed and the ability to not satisfy greed are our greatest enemies. Okay, I know what I'm going to do, and I know what you're going to do with me, can you let me go? ”

"Yes."

The patriarch nodded.

Ye Yi: "I hope that there will be no moths during the big competition, but since ancient times, things to worry about have always happened, and in the Red Dust Realm, this situation is called Murphy's Law." ”

"Murphy's Law?"

"Well, Murphy's Law."

"Things tend to go in the wrong direction you think, as long as there is a possibility," Ye said. For example, you have two keys in your pocket, one for your room and one for your car; What happens if you want to take out your car keys now? Yes, you often take out the room key. Language is the most terrible and strongest shackle unique to human beings, and as soon as people say it, they cannot take back what they just said, and what they say cannot be regarded as if it did not happen. If you talk to yourself in your heart because you are worried that something bad might happen, then something bad will happen. ”

"Sounds a bit like a word."

"Yes, Spirit."

Ye Yi said coldly.

She has struggled all the way to the present, and the last thing she believes in is superstition, but she also likes items such as lucky charms that can give people a hint of "success", because what these items really fight against is not the so-called providence in the dark, but the "Murphy's Law" in her heart.

As long as the lucky thing is still around, the belief in success in the heart will not be easy to shake, and the probability of success will be greater.

This is how most lucky charms work.

Although many people do not believe in lucky charms, they feel that lucky charms are superstitious and not advisable.

"Of course, I know you won't believe in such a metaphysical thing, in your opinion, everything should have been set a certain number a long time ago, right?"

Ye Yi said with a smile.

Of course, there are some mysterious and unpredictable forces in nature that control the life and death of all things, but most of the time, it is these subtle but ubiquitous Murphy's laws that guide good fortune and bad luck.

"Hopefully, good luck will always be with us."

The patriarch said in a strange way.
