Chapter 164: The Reason for Madness
"If you want to win, you have to pay the price!" Wu Tao had no fear on his face, pulled out his weapon, and rushed towards Fang Yang, and the two fought together in an instant. In an instant, there was a thunderclap in the field, the true qi was agitated, and the wind was roaring. Although Wu Tao's heart was full of anger, he did not lose his mind, but was more cautious than when he fought before.
Jiang Feiyun was worried about Qiu Feng's injury, so she stayed by Qiu Feng's side, and she was responsible for taking care of Qiu Feng.
Lu Chen and Ning Yu turned their gazes, focusing on the battle between Wu Tao and Fang Yang in the field. I saw that as soon as the battle broke out, Wu Tao was at a disadvantage, while Fang Yang seemed to be at ease.
Seeing this, Lu Chen frowned slightly, and asked, "The same is true of the gambling stone battles in the past?" At this moment, Wu Tao, like the previous autumn wind, was completely in a situation of being pressed and beaten by the opponent. If this was the case in the previous gambling stone wars, Wu Tao would not be able to avenge the autumn wind at all, but instead go to deliver food to the other party.
"In the past, Wu Tao, Qiu Feng and I all knew that we couldn't win the gambling stone battle in the end, so we just tried our best to fight Liu Han and the others, and hone our own skills and combat skills in the battle. But in the past, we were able to fight Liu Han and others for at least a quarter of an hour, and we would not be at a complete disadvantage at the beginning, let alone have no chance to admit defeat. Ning Yu said, his eyes firmly fixed on the battle in the field, and his face revealed a solemnity. If there is no accident, he will be on the field in the third gambling stone battle.
"In the past, how many gambling battles with Liu Han and their gambling stones, how many games can we win?" Lu Chen asked with a frown.
"Wu Tao, Qiu Feng and I can't win the opponent, we lost the first three gambling stone battles, and the last gambling stone battle between the captain and Feng Jian won and lost. Ning Yu paused, a touch of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and said: "I said it wrong just now, the gambling stone battle between the captain and Feng Jian is not a time to win and sometimes lose, but to lose more and win less! This is because Fan Shangzhi disdains to take action in person, otherwise we will not be able to win one of the four gambling stone battles every month." ”
When Lu Chen heard this, he knew it in his heart. Jiang Feiyun joined the Mine Hall as a miscellaneous disciple of the Mine Hall, wanting to complete the required amount of spirit stone mining and become an outer disciple of the sect. And Fan Shangzhi reduced the amount of spirit stones mined by Jiang Feiyun and others through the monthly gambling stone battles of the mine hall without breaking the rules of the mine hall at all, so that Jiang Feiyun could not complete the spirit stone mining task within the time specified by the sect.
"How many spirit stones does the captain have to complete the spirit stone mining task stipulated by the sect?" Lu Chen asked again.
Ning Yu thought for a moment and said, "The sect stipulates that from the date of joining the mining hall, the mining task of 10,000 spirit stones will be completed within three years, and the miscellaneous disciples can become outer disciples. Or complete the mining task of 30,000 spirit stones within five years, or you can become an outer disciple from a miscellaneous disciple. Or if the mining task of 100,000 spirit stones is completed within ten years, you can also become an outer disciple from a miscellaneous disciple. There are still 3,000 spirit stones left before the captain completes the mining task of 10,000 spirit stones in three years!"
After a pause, Ning Yu continued: "Since the day the captain entered the mine hall, now there are only three years left in the last two months! If there is no Fan Shangzhi to interfere with it, the captain will be able to successfully become an outer disciple in two months. However, the captain has already prepared to continue mining spirit stones in the mine hall and complete the mining task of 30,000 spirit stones in five years. ”
After saying this, Ning Yu wanted to speak and stopped, looking like he was slurping.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen was slightly surprised. After getting along for a while, Lu Chen knew that Ning Yu was a straightforward person who would say whatever he wanted, why did he suddenly become hesitant at this time. What could be something that made Ning Yu speechless, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in Lu Chen's mind, his eyes sank slightly, and he asked, "Fan Shangzhi suddenly went crazy because I joined your mining team, right?"
Glancing at Lu Chen, Ning Yu's eyes struggled for a moment, then he shook his head and said, "No, this has nothing to do with you joining our mining team, it's just that Fan Shangzhi can't wait!"
"I know about you entering the mine late at night to mine spirit stones. Lu Chen said in a low voice, Jiang Feiyun, who was taking care of the autumn wind, did not hear it.
"Y-you-how do you know?" Looking at Lu Chen, Ning Yu's eyes widened and rounded, and there was a look of surprise in them. The three of them have been hiding this matter very well, and even Jiang Feiyun doesn't know about it.
After a while, Ning Yu knew that he couldn't hide it from Lu Chen, and sighed: "It's almost impossible for one person to complete the mining task of 10,000 spirit stones within three years!"
Hearing this, Lu Chen nodded slightly. If the task of mining spirit stones can really be completed easily, how can those big families who are attached to the sect let go of such a piece of fat, I am afraid that the mine hall will have been squeezed out long ago, where is it the turn of the disciples of these small families like Ning Yu and the three of them to enter the mine hall to mine spirit stones.
Seeing a look of understanding on Lu Chen's face, Ning Yu continued: "All along, we have voluntarily counted the mined spirit stones on the captain's head. Of course, our gang captain is actually selfish. The captain has the strength to pass the assessment of the outer disciples of the sect and become an outer disciple, but he was forced to enter the mine hall only after offending that person. And once the captain becomes an outer disciple, with the captain's talent in alchemy, he will be able to participate in the evaluation of the inner disciples of the sect in a few years. After the captain becomes the inner disciple of the sect, we will be able to follow the left and right of an alchemist, although the identity is not as good as the inner and outer disciples of the sect, but the captain will never treat us badly. Moreover, as the level of the captain alchemist increases, our identity and status will also rise. ”
As soon as Ning Yu's words came out, Lu Chen suddenly thought of someone, after the annual meeting of Qinghe City, Lin Yue of the Lin family swore that he was willing to follow Lin Shu, and Lin Yue had the opportunity to step into the Lin family, the main vein of Tianyang City, but now Lin Yue entered the Qingxiao Sect with Tian Gaoluo. After Lu Chen learned the news from Bihe of Fuchun Herbal Medicine Hall, he had an inexplicable premonition in his heart that maybe it wouldn't be long before he might meet Lin Yue again.
After a slight pause, Ning Yu said again: "Originally, in the last two months, Fan Shangzhi would only reduce our spirit stones in the gambling stone battle every month as before. But you suddenly joined the mining hall, and you are already an outer disciple of the sect, but every day like us, you come to the spirit stone pit to mine spirit stones, Fan Shangzhi is worried that you will also count the mined spirit stones on the captain's head, and help the captain complete the mining task of 10,000 spirit stones in three years, so today's gambling stone battle will ......"
Ning Yu didn't finish the last sentence. And at this moment, Lu Chen suddenly sighed.
"Wu Tao, don't be reckless, admit defeat quickly!"
Lu Chen had been paying attention to the changes in the situation in the field, and he did not delay this because of talking to Ning Yu. I saw that Fang Yang's offensive was getting more and more fierce, and Wu Tao could only retreat under Fang Yang's oppression. If he forcibly holds on, if Fang Yang seizes an opportunity, Wu Tao may lose the opportunity to take the initiative to admit defeat. If he was restrained by Fang Yang, Wu Tao would definitely end up like Qiu Feng. Although Lu Chen realized this, he couldn't really control this battle, because the person who fought was not himself.
"Wu Tao, admit defeat!" Ning Yu also roared towards the field, with a trace of worry in his eyes, and then turned his head to look at Jiang Feiyun and said, "Captain, you quickly persuade Wu Tao and let him admit defeat." ”
Jiang Feiyun's eyes had already been cast on the field, at this time she was worried that Wu Tao would end up in the same fate as Qiu Feng, but she was always calm and unhurried, but she was flustered at the moment, and she didn't know how to persuade Wu Tao to stop, so she could only anxiously shout to Wu Tao, who was fighting in the field: "Wu Tao, admit defeat, I said that I will avenge Qiu Feng!"
Qiu Feng also wanted to persuade Wu Tao, but he was hit by Liu Han's three punches and broke three ribs, and at this moment, every breath he took would be accompanied by severe pain, and his breathing became weak, and he couldn't shout loudly at all.
Seeing that Wu Tao was still forcibly insisting, Lu Chen frowned slightly, and said, "Wu Tao, if you don't admit defeat, you will fall into Fan Shangzhi's arms." Fan Shangzhi is going to seriously injure you one by one, so that you will not be able to enter the mine to mine spirit stones for the next two months. If you end up like Qiu Feng, then Jiang Feiyun really won't have a chance to become an outer disciple of the sect in two months!"
As soon as Lu Chen's words fell, Wu Tao's voice came from the field.
"I throw in the towel!"
"Poof!"
Wu Tao shouted loudly, and at the same time his figure stepped back. However, Fang Yang didn't seem to hear Wu Tao's admitting defeat at all, and rushed towards Wu Tao like a tiger descending from the mountain, a knife slashed at Wu Tao's shoulder with great speed and incomparability, if Wu Tao hadn't tried his best to dodge, Fang Yang's knife would have been enough to cut off one of his arms.
But even so, Fang Yang's knife also left a terrifying wound on Wu Tao's shoulder, and the muscles rolled up, revealing white bones. Red blood gushed out from Wu Tao's shoulder, instantly staining half of Wu Tao's body. Fang Yang immediately flew back after the knife took effect, as if he was afraid of Jiang Feiyun.
"It's important to deal with the wound!" Lu Chen shouted at Ning Yu in anger, and then stepped forward to hold Wu Tao, who was stumbling backwards, and brought him back to the pit ladder stone road. Ning Yu came to his senses and hurriedly took out some medicinal powder and sprinkled it on Wu Tao's wound, and the flowing blood gradually stopped.
"Wu Tao has already admitted defeat, you still have to make a move!" Seeing this scene, Jiang Feiyun's whole person exploded instantly, like an angry tiger, the strength of the five heavens of the sea of qi burst out, like an arrow from the string rushing towards Fang Yang who was flying away. On the other side, a figure was also shot out, and it was Feng Jian, who was also the Five Heavens of the Qi Sea, who intercepted Jiang Feiyun.
"Fang Yang did a good job! Even if Elder Fan asked, we weren't afraid. Feng Jian laughed, slapped Jiang Feiyun with one palm, and said, "Who told you to be reckless if you don't have the ability, and you are also to blame for the injury." ”
Jiang Feiyun came with endless anger, but was stopped by Feng Jian. Fang Yang retreated into the crowd unharmed, but Fang Yang, who returned to the crowd, not only did not have a sense of security, but shivered inexplicably, he felt like he was being targeted by an ancient fierce beast.
"You take care of Wu Tao and Qiu Feng, and I'll go and pull the captain back. Lu Chen said a word to Ning Yu, and then stepped into the entrance. Ning Yu naturally has no opinion, he must also have the strength to pull people, and he only has the Qi Sea Triple Heaven, and entering the Qi Sea will only drag Jiang Feiyun down, while Lu Chen is the Qi Sea Five Heavens. Even if he can't pull Jiang Feiyun, he can help Jiang Feiyun deal with Feng Jian together.
When Lu Chen came to Jiang Feiyun's side, Jiang Feiyun still wanted to continue to work with Feng Jian. Lu Chen grabbed Jiang Feiyun's arm, shook his head slowly, and said, "Captain, don't be impulsive." ”
