Chapter 222: The Gathering of Demons

There is actually a reason why the update is not good these days, I went out with my wife to travel, sat for eight hours and went to a mountain Qian, and was misled by the tour guide to drink the mountain spring water there, and after coming back with my son is vomiting and diarrhea, so that I am dead and alive, especially I lost five pounds in one night, and then a diagnosis is gastroenteritis, I had to rest with infusion, and it took me two days to ease my spirit, and quickly update a chapter, although it was written a little sloppy, but I can't let everyone wait any longer, otherwise I'm afraid someone will really think I'm a eunuch.

Ten Array Gambling has been popular in the cultivation world of this world for hundreds of years, just like the Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang Festival in modern society, it is common sense for cultivators, even ordinary people say four, five or six, but Wang Zhao doesn't understand it very well, which makes Ni Wa and Zhu Qingming a little surprised.

I think that in modern society, if a Chinese hears that his neighbor or colleague does not know that he wants to eat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the surprised mood is comparable to Ni Wa's current psychological feelings.

Ni Wa thought that Wang Zhao was joking, but she looked at the expressions of Wang Zhao, Zhao Wu and Luo Yusheng, and knew that these people really didn't know, which was interesting.

Ni Wa was a little puzzled and hid her puzzlement in her heart, planning to go back and report this to the king, and then she explained the rules of winning and losing ten formations, it turned out that the rules of winning and losing ten formations were still very simple.

The winning or losing of the Ten Formations Gamble is generally carried out in the forces of two cultivators, generally between two sects or separatist forces, the Lone Ranger can't do so much work, it requires both sides to have a master of the formation, and also have a large number of junior brothers or apprentices and the like, and then they can also invite out a certain amount of foreign aid, so as to have the qualification to open the Ten Formations Gambling to win or lose.

The specific rules are as follows: at the beginning, the two sides sent seven masters to face off, seven rounds of four wins, which side won the most victories, which side won, and the loser has to pay the benefits or price pressed in advance, for example, this time the king of Weishan asked the king to call them If they lose, they must join Qu Chitu's command and become a member of Qu Chitu's subordinates, Taiping Town and Fangcun Mountain will become Qu Chitu's territory, the rules are as simple as that.

However, if the loser is not willing to accept defeat, he can bet on the chips and propose another three games, with the winner winning everything in a best-of-three system.

Of course, if the loser is still unwilling to accept this result, then you can start an all-round war between the two forces, this time it is a desperate fight to bet everything, the two sides will not die, and the loser will lose everything, but most of the winners can only get a ruin or a corpse.

By the way, in the process of winning or losing ten battles, each person who plays can only play once, and it is not allowed for a strong man to play the whole game.

The rules are as simple as that, but the process of the competition is ever-changing, which greatly tests the comprehensive strength and contacts of both sides. Because both sides can ask for foreign aid or admit defeat at any time, the outcome of the fight is very unpredictable, and often the stronger side will not have much advantage, but the power of knowing more masters will prevail.

Ni Wa said the rules, Wang Zhao pondered for a while, and found that the rules of this competition are really unfavorable to his side, although there are Miao Bo, Lu Yue, Wei Wuya, Ding Mian, Sang Hao, Luo Yusheng, Li Kaishan and Banderas and other masters on their side, but unfortunately none of these people are at the level of demon marshal or Jin Dan, let these people play, probably only Miao Bo has the certainty of winning, and even if the other party invites a few demon marshals, then the opponent in the first seven games, it is very possible to play a demon marshal with a water, Then in this way, even Miao Bo, an almost invincible existence among the demon generals, will be difficult to win.

And on his side, only himself, Ding Xiang and Zhao Wu are demon handsome, and any one of them will not dare to say that they will win.

Wang Zhao was really embarrassed for a while.

And just when Ni Wa called the king to explain the rules of winning and losing the ten array bets, a group of demon clans came to Taiping Town.

"This place is weird!"

A bull demon with a height of more than two meters shook the two horns on his head, looked at everything in Taiping Town curiously, and touched the cylindrical street lamp on the side of the road with his own hands, and said loudly.

A white-clothed man with a sheep's beard next to him elegantly proposed: "The Great Sage of Shaking the Mountain, the business is important, should we find the main master first and then talk about anything else?"

When the bull demon heard this, he reluctantly withdrew his gaze from a billboard on the side of the road, and while secretly admiring in his heart that the woman in the picture was really coquettish and beautiful, he said: "Yang Yufeng, what you said is reasonable, okay, bring this old guy first."

The little demons behind him agreed, pushed and shoved a dry old man over, and asked him to give the bull demon a salute.

The old man was dressed in gray, full of gray hair, although his body was a little rickety, but a pair of small eyes were extremely bright, and there was a golden ring on his neck and wrists, and he didn't know what it was made of, flashing with dots of gold, and the silver chain connected to the gold ring was held in the hands of the three demon soldiers.

After the little demons brought him over, they asked him to kneel down and salute, and the old man did not resist, and knelt honestly in front of the bull demon.

The bull demon is one of the demon commanders under the command of the Zhenwu Emperor, called Niu Shaoshan, self-proclaimed Shashan Sage, he came to Taiping Town this time, in order to find the whereabouts of his father-in-law Hu Hanqing, so he deliberately brought this dry and thin old man, because although this old man is not amazing, but he is good at seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, and is extremely sensitive to the breath, and is a very useful character.

When Niu Shaoshan saw that the old man was brought, he said to him with a big grin: "Old fellow, the time has come to use you, you can show me, is there the breath of my stepfather here?"

The old man raised his head and shook his nose a few times, and replied, "I feel the aura of the demon master, just a few days ago, there was an aura of his old man's power in the attic over there."

"Is that true?!"

Niu Shaoshan was overjoyed, looked at the courtyard in the middle of the town, and waved his hand: "So my father-in-law is really here?" Children, come with me to meet our ancestors. ”

The four demon generals and more than a dozen demon soldiers beside him agreed, followed behind Niu Shao Mountain, and walked towards the office compound in Taiping Town.

Niu Shaoshan was excited, and the long black hair on his body trembled with the agitated mood. He was originally just an ordinary Tibetan yak, hundreds of years ago by the old foolish fairy Hu Hanqing ignited the wisdom of the spirit, and finally after two hundred years of cultivation to achieve the status of the demon sage, the old foolish fairy is grateful to Dade, as a reborn parent, and then he heard that the old foolish fairy retreats and retreats to the avenue of enlightenment, vowing to pursue the truth of the world, explore the ultimate mystery of heaven and earth, and has since disappeared in front of the world for more than a hundred years, everyone says that his old man has died, Niu Shaoshan has been sad for a long time, and now he has got the news of his father-in-law, Then my heart was overjoyed.

Niu Shaoshan hurried to the courtyard in front of the door, calmed down, and stepped forward to call the door.

The door of the office compound was actually open, and there were a few guards patrolling at the door, and when they saw a group of monsters coming over, they hurriedly came over with guns to inquire. Niu Shaoshan didn't dare to be unreasonable, first reported his name and identity, and then politely proposed to visit the owner of the house, several guards also knew a little common sense in the cultivation world, heard of the name of Taiyue Wudang Mountain, and learned that the Bull Demon King in front of him was a subordinate of the Zhenwu Emperor, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly called out Zhang Tianxing.

Zhang Tianxing went out to inquire that this was to visit the owner of the house, thinking that their goal was Wang Zhao, so he enthusiastically told them, saying that my master is not in the yard now, but on the construction site outside the town, if you are not in a hurry, you can drink tea in the yard and wait for a while, if there is an emergency, I am willing to take you over to find it in person.

Where will Niu Shaoshan sit here and wait safely, he immediately expressed his desire to see the owner of the house, Zhang Tianxing saw him like this, so he took the initiative to take the demons out of Taiping Town, and went to the location of Wang Zhao.

Of course, in order to make the king call them to be prepared, Zhang Tianxing did not forget to send Shi Bao to report to the door master in front of the demons, and when the demons came to the field outside the town, they saw the oval strange building that was three or four stories high, and they were inevitably suppressed.

At this time, Wang Zhao and the others also got Shi Bao's report, and knew that a group of demon clans from Wudang Mountain had come to Taiping Town, and the leader of them was a noble demon marshal, and threatened to visit him on purpose.

Wang Zhao was hesitating how to reply to Ni Wa's proposal, and he didn't know whether he should agree to the gambling fight with Weishan Lake, and now it happened that the demon marshal was visiting, so he took this opportunity to order his subordinates to invite Niu Shaoshan and them to come and meet, and also took this opportunity to discuss with Ding Xiang and Zhao Wu whether to agree to the invitation of the king of Weishan.

Although he has never seen such a very modern style building, but in his mind, he has always regarded his father-in-law as a powerful and omnipotent figure, in his thinking, it is normal for his father-in-law to come up with such a great treasure, so he just flicked it for a moment, and then reacted, and ran to the gate of the sales office in a hurry, and the head with huge horns shook from side to side. anxiously looking for the familiar and distant figure in his mind.

Out of politeness, Wang Zhao had already brought Lilac and Zhao Wu to the door to greet him, and even Ni Wa and Zhu Qingming followed, not daring to sit in the hall safely.

Although a few people were standing at the door of the hall, Niu Shaoshan turned a blind eye to a few, he stared at the pair of bull's eyes and looked left and right, looking inside the hall and outside the door, but was disappointed to find: no.

Not at the door, not in the hall.

Using his divine sense to investigate, there was no trace of the old foolish immortal nearby, and he didn't even feel a little bit of Hu Hanqing's breath.

The king saw that he was looking around, and did not know what he was looking for, so he stepped forward and asked, "Hello this fellow Taoist, I don't know ......."

Before he finished speaking, Niu Shaoshan turned his head and asked him, "Where is my father-in-law?"

Wang Zhao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Your father-in-law?" Who is it?"

Niu Shaoshan remembered that he was a little reckless, and he hurriedly explained: "Oh, my father-in-law is an old foolish immortal who is called the Qiming Demon Saint by the demons in the world, and I am his righteous son Niu Shaoshan, I don't know if my brother has heard my father-in-law mention my name?"

Wang Zhao said in surprise: "You are the righteous son of the gourd ancestor?" Then we're a family! I am the guardian and guardian of Wenwen, and the abilities of these of us come from the endowment of Wenwen, and Wenwen is the inheritor of the old foolish immortal. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only a group of goblins in Niu Shaoshan were a little surprised, but they didn't expect that the old foolish fairy really had descendants, and the two demon marshals from Weishan Lake were even more startled, they glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes, and they couldn't help but secretly say in their hearts: It's troublesome.

Niu Shaoshan asked happily, "Wenwen? So my stepfather has a descendant? Where is she? Come out and let Big Brother see. ”

Wang Zhao looked at the pair of bull's eyes that were close at hand, moved back half a step slightly, and said, "Well, Wenwen is not here now, wait for tomorrow, tomorrow I will bring her over to meet the eldest brother, so that the two of you can get to know each other."

Niu Shaoshan said loudly: "I can only see you tomorrow?" It really makes me anxious, by the way, brother, is Wenwen a man or a woman, what does she look like?"

Wang Zhao smiled: "Wenwen's full name is Wang Shuwen, she is a very smart and beautiful girl, if you see it tomorrow, you will definitely like it."

Niu Shaoshan wondered: "Okay, tomorrow I want to meet this newborn girl, eh, no, my father's surname is Hu, why is his descendant surnamed Wang?" Where is my stepfather, why hasn't he come out yet, why haven't he gone out?"

Wang Zhao was stunned for a moment, looking at him speechless, Niu Shaoshan saw that Wang Zhao's expression was wrong, and he didn't answer his words, his heart suddenly suddenly, as if he had guessed something, his smile disappeared, and Zhengse asked Wang Zhao: "Daoyou, what happened to my father-in-law, please make it clear."

Wang Zhao sighed and said to Niu Shaoshan: "Don't be excited, listen to me tell you slowly."

Niu Shaoshan's expression was sad, and he said, "I understand, my father-in-law seems to be really dead."

The king was silent.

Niu Shaoshan's tears flowed, he wiped his sleeve and asked, "When and how did my father-in-law die?"

Wang Zhao waved his hand gloomily and said, "Come in and talk about it, the matter is very long, and it will be unclear for a while, and when I send these two away, I will tell you in detail."

Niu Shaoshan saw Ni Wa and Zhu Qingming at this time, and asked, "Isn't this Ni Wa and Qingming under Qu Chitu, what are you doing here?"

The two hadn't answered yet, Zhao Wu said coldly from the side: "These two are here to give us a challenge book for the King of Weishan, and they want to bet with us on winning or losing in ten formations, if we lose, we will become Qu Chitu's subordinates, and Taiping Town and Fangcun Mountain will also become Qu Chitu's territory."

As soon as Niu Shaoshan heard this, he immediately became angry, Ao Nag jumped up and shouted: "Qu Chitu is really bold, he dares to oppress the descendants of my father-in-law, has he forgotten the merits of my father-in-law when he was a demon master, he is really a person who has lost his conscience, the king calls you not to worry, even if you agree to their gambling fight, I am responsible for finding someone for you, let them see, the demon clan of my Qiming lineage is not easy to bully."
