First mover advantage

There was no more life-saving medicine, only deadly venom left, and as Xiang Nanxing's hand holding the gun slowly raised, this murderous round was officially announced. The game has progressed so far, and finally it has finally come to the final moment when there is no way back for each other.

Just looking at the measurement, these two people are thirty-five to forty, and they are both some distance away from the lethal fifty-milliliter injection, and the difference between them is not much five-milliliter. But in fact, Jiang Liang was already in a very dangerous situation at this time.

The last ten milliliters of space are enough to cover nine successful defenses, but can only accommodate the loss of four failed defenses at most. If the defense fails on the fifth attempt, the accumulated dose will directly touch the red line, triggering a 50-milliliter high-dose injection. In other words, Jiang Liang no longer has an absolutely safe strategy in this round, and he must do his best to find the answer that was hidden by Xiang Nanxing.

But even if it is as strong as Jiang Liang, he feels a little helpless at this moment.

The means of observing the pulse of the arteries lost their meaning because the other party had just carried out cardiotonic treatment, and the ability to observe words and colors could not be exerted because of the existence of the mask, and in the end only the means of verbal temptation remained, but when Xiang Nanxing stood up again from the near death for the third time, Jiang Liang suddenly felt that some changes had occurred in the person in front of him, becoming clear, but even more unfathomable.

He couldn't see through Xiang Nanxing, and he was even more faintly afraid of being swallowed up by such an abyss.

So for the first shot, he chose "defense".

"I understand his caution." Liang Jingmo in front of the TV muttered to himself.

He stared at Xiang Nanxing in the picture and shook his head gently: "Even across the screen, I can feel the pressure brought by that kid." He had put aside all the baggage before, and it was already difficult to see through, and after three times and two near-death baptisms, he was able to take a big step forward on this basis. Now he even firmly suppressed the strongest host in Xifeng in terms of momentum. ”

Qiu Banxia squinted at him: "Do you now believe in the so-called 'escape from death to change mentality'?" ”

"I saw it with my own eyes, I have to believe it!" Liang Jingmo smiled bitterly, "If it were me, there would be nothing I could do about him now." There is no way back for both sides in this round, and if they can't see through their opponents, they can only choose the side that is safe for the time being and wait for the turnaround with metering. ”

He pursed his lips and shook his head slowly.

However, compared to Xiang Nanxing, Jiang Liang didn't have enough space - this was the advantage that the former did not hesitate to risk his life and use his body as a venom container. It's just a numerical increase or decrease, but at this point it finally becomes fatal. ”

"This is a real 'first-mover advantage'."

As he asserted, in the face of Xiang Nanxing's muzzle, Jiang Liang successively chose a safe and supreme defense, but was forced to stop before the fourth shot. By the beginning of the round, his cumulative meter had reached forty milliliters, and as his defense in the first three shots had failed, that number had reached forty-six milliliters in one go, just one step away from the fifty-milliliter injection line.

For Jiang Liang, this was a number that made him have no way back, and when he came back to his senses, he had no choice.

"This is your 'general'." He smiled wryly.

If he chooses to defend on the next fourth shot, but then misses again, the cumulative amount will rise to 48 milliliters, so the fifth and sixth shots can only choose one shot to defend, and must not miss, so as to survive this round. However, even this is meaningless, Xiang Nanxing will choose all the defenses in his own turn, and when it is Jiang Liang's turn again, the forty-nine milliliters will make him unable to make any action and sit still.

For him, there are only two scenarios left to survive: either choose to "wait and see" with no bullets in the next fourth shot, or choose "defend" and successfully block the bullets of this round, and everything else will eventually lead to death.

The choice of yes or no, corresponding to Xiang Nanxing's two configurations, can only continue this game if he guesses correctly.

"I didn't expect that I would have times when I needed to pray for luck." Jiang Liang looked up with a wry smile and looked at the dome of the hall. The thick concrete blocked the view, but at this moment he seemed to be looking at the bright night sky on Xifeng, which was the gaze of the ancestors of the past, silently watching him from another world.

Jiang Liang raised his hand.

"I ask you, God, will you bless me?"

The memory seemed to come to an abrupt end, and the consciousness continued to move forward, skipping the chaotic fragments in between. When Jiang Liang came back to his senses, he was already standing in the middle of a vast grassland, and the wind mixed with the aroma of green grass was blowing from afar, rolling up some withered grass stalks, and setting off waves in the sea of long grass.

Jiang Liang was slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "I see, I lost." ”

"There have been a lot of people here, and you're the calmest one."

The voice behind him was so familiar, and the corners of Jiang Liang's mouth unconsciously showed a hint of a smile. "Teacher, it's you." He turned and walked over to the speaker with a smile. Standing in front of him at this time was Huang Lao, who was dressed in a robe, and he had been his teacher since Jiang Liang was a child.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time." Huang Lao smiled and patted him on the shoulder, as kind as usual, as if he didn't care about being killed by the latter. However, in the face of his enthusiasm, Jiang Liang still had that wry smile on his face.

"If I could see you, then death could be a nice thing." He shook his head helplessly, "It's a pity that you are only an illusion constructed by my memories here, and the real soul is probably still wandering elsewhere." ”

Huang Lao smiled: "You have been so rational all your life, it seems as if someone has taken away your feelings." ”

"For a lifetime...... Jiang Liang smiled self-deprecatingly.

The two sat side by side on the grassland, watching the wind blow through the green grass. Although it is just a fictional memory of Huang Lao, it also integrates the two of them who have been together for so many years, and in Jiang Liang's mind, this is actually no different from the real Huang Lao.

"I apologize to you." He said, "That's when I killed you." ”

"You mean when you teamed up with Bai Su's bastard?" Huang Lao waved his hand, "Join forces with him to kill me, in exchange for complete trust, and make him willing to become the banner you put in the villain positionβ€”isn't this a ploy we discussed early on?" ”

"But at that time, it was just about 'pretending to kill', but it didn't really have to be killed." Jiang Liang said, "It's just that the moment I get close to you, I suddenly hope that this plan can be 100% successful, and I don't want to leave any uncontrollable variables in the future." So, I didn't hesitate to do it. ”

"I understand." Huang Lao nodded, "Do you remember, when we made this plan, I named it 'Gongzi Xiantou'. ”

"Jing Ke stabbed Qin, and the son offered his head." Jiang Liang said.

"Jing Ke stabbed Qin, and the son offered his head." Huang Lao said lightly, "Since then, I haven't thought about coming back alive - after all, you are the apprentice I taught, and your choice is the decision I would make in that situation." ”

Jiang Liang was silent for a moment.

"So, you did it on purpose." "If you go according to plan, you'll survive and you'll be seriously injured and won't be useful for a short time," he said. So you chose to die, and turned your life into a door, locking all my vacillations on the other side of the door. If I had a choice, I would have crossed that line after killing you, and I would never have looked back. ”

He sneered: "You are really the number one loyal minister of Xifeng." ”

Facing the most respected teacher, Jiang Liang's tone was a little sarcastic, which was not disrespectful to Huang Lao, but his bitter self-deprecation. Until the end, the teacher used his life to push him to take the last step, but after he left, he was defeated.

Huang Lao looked at him quietly, and suddenly said, "Prince, do you remember the flower field that you used to go to with the fourth princess when you were a child?" ”

Jiang Liang's heart moved, and the surrounding scenery also moved with his mind, and a little bright color suddenly appeared on the edge of the blue-green grassland in the distance, and it was purple and red.

"At that time, I was ordered to test the reaction of each prince by destroying the most cherished things of each prince. From what I've seen of you, the closest thing to that standard is the flower field. Huang Lao said, "So I didn't leave immediately after burning the flower field, but hid there, waiting for you to come." Later, I saw you and the fourth princess rushing from a distance, and the fourth princess was crying like a tearful person, while you just stood beside you, motionless, with an expression on your face that was neither hatred nor sadness, but an isolated indifference. ”

"From that moment on, I believed that the next emperor of Xifeng would be you, and it could only be you. You are not stupid, you immediately thought that this was the emperor testing your reaction, so you didn't cry, and even wiped out your love for it at the first time, you are such a person who can use reason to override everything. For Xifeng, who is getting weaker and weaker, you are the master it craves. ”

Jiang Liang smiled. It's a wry smile.

"If I had cried at that time, things would have been different after that." He muttered to himself.

There was a hint of confusion in his gaze, mixed with painful determination. This man, who can always hide his emotions with reason, rarely shows his vulnerable side, even if it is only a flash in his eyes. Ignoring the surprised gaze of Huang Lao beside him, he stood up alone and looked at the flower field from afar, and when he took a step, he turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

He walked faster and faster, and his steps became lighter and lighter. The wind blew behind him, like an invisible hand pushing him forward, and it also blew away all the green grass on the ground, revealing the earthy yellow rough ground. This wilderness is as far as the eye can see, and where is his goal?

Huang Lao suddenly asked loudly behind him, "Jiang Liang, have you forgotten the great wish of your ancestors to revive Xifeng?" ”

Jiang Liang's shoulders trembled, and he stopped suddenly.

After a while, he slowly raised his hand and put it on his chest. The heart under the palm of his hand beat vigorously, like a drumstick beating heavily on the chest, one by one, all of them were the oaths made in the imperial tomb back then.

"Jiang Liang, don't dare to forget until you die!"

He slapped his chest hard, tears welling up in his eyes.

In the venue, Jiang Liang suddenly opened his eyes.

"I really pulled it back." Xu Wen let go of his hand, sat down on the ground, and smiled tiredly, "Maybe after today's game, I should change my career to become an emergency doctor." ”

"That's right." Jiang Liang said lightly.

He pushed Xu Wen away and got up from the ground with his hands. Without the rescue of a strong heart shot, the raging venom carved a lot of damage in his body, and ordinary people would be unable to move even if they woke up. However, at this time, Jiang Liang seemed to directly deny the existence of this injury physiologically, he stood up, picked up the gun, and then loaded it with bullets, all the movements were as natural and smooth as usual.

After all the preparations were done, he turned his head to look at Xiang Nanxing, looking at the opponent who had almost driven him to a dead end. For his miraculous near-death resurrection, only Xiang Nanxing was the only one present who did not have the slightest surprise on his face, as if he knew from the beginning that such a thing would inevitably happen.

Jiang Liang smiled. Only such a person who does not have any luck in his heart is worthy of being the opponent of Emperor Xifeng.

"So, let's move on."

He raised his gun.

"And then, put an end to it."
