Volume 19 Penglai Chapter 21 Leading the team

Eldest Sun Xue is really resolute and resolute in his work, worthy of being the head of the White Emperor Pavilion who does not retreat from evil, and worthy of being a genius who used the celestial phenomena as the leyline of the earth to set up a hurricane array for the White Emperor Pavilion Cloud City

Only with brains and action can things get done. There are many smart people in the world who are far-sighted, but cannot make decisions at critical moments, cannot firmly believe in their own judgments, and cannot turn their ideas into reality; There are also many brave people who will hit and rush as soon as their brains are hot, regardless of the three seven twenty-one before the brave ones. However, only those who can combine wisdom and courage, be wise and courageous, and have a plan and a decision, can be qualified for the position of "leader".

In this regard, although Wu Xie has been the head of Qingyangguan for hundreds of years, he is actually not very competent - the reason why he can manage Qingyangguan well is that there are groups of capable people in the sect, everyone performs their duties and gets their own place, just like a healthy person, all limbs, bones, blood vessels and viscera are all functioning normally, and all diseases are eliminated naturally, and they are strong and long-lived.

But Changsun Xue is different, she is a person who can start from scratch and pull the team up from scratch.

From the point of view of the so-called "imperial studies", Wu Xie is the ideal leader, who grasps the overall situation and fully delegates power; Changsun Xue is not, and her talents will in turn hinder the stability of her rule.

However, from a historical point of view, people like Wu Xie can only be a "emperor through the ages" on the premise of having an ancestral background, and it is Changsun Xue who can really fight thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in blood and fire, and even drive out the Tartars and restore China.

…… Provided, of course, that the combat effectiveness of each other beyond the norm cannot be taken into account. After all, in this world, absolute power is enough to crush wisdom. If the two sects were hostile to each other, Changsun Xue's sect would definitely be able to completely suppress Wu Jie's sect - and then Wu Xie would go to the door alone and dismantle her sect......

In the history of the earth, if we talk about the magic of using soldiers, Wu Qi, Han Xin, and others are all geniuses who have been famous for thousands of years, enough to worship and try their best to emulate them. But above them, there is also a Liu Xiu who can summon meteorites and floods at critical moments, and you can use your troops like a god, and you can't withstand a flood and a meteorite smash.

So before Wu Xie crossed, there was a famous joke on the Internet, saying that Wang Mang between the two Han Dynasty was actually a far-sighted traverser, who was going to show his strength and open a new era, but he met Liu Xiu, who opened a plug-in, and died in a nest......

Wu Xie stood here and thought in his heart, but the group of outer disciples were a little impatient.

Originally, they called on their friends to form a team, and they were ready to go to the small world full of dangers but also opportunities to explore, and strive to gain some opportunities and go further on the path of cultivation. But seeing that they were about to arrive at the gate of the small world, they got an order from the sect to wait here for the inner disciples who came to lead the team - this wait was more than half a year.

For more than half a year, they saw more than a group of people coming out of the small world with injuries all over their bodies. Some of them laughed so happily that it was clear that they were getting a lot of money. There are even one or two of them with a strong aura, which is clearly just breaking through the realm

What's the most depressing thing in the world? It's hard to say. But sitting next to a pile of money and watching others come to get money one after another, but I can't get a dime, it's definitely very depressing.

The rules of the Yujing faction are very strict, and even the outer disciples dare not do things that kill people and oversell goods. Therefore, even though they are envious and jealous in their hearts, they can only have smiles on their faces and congratulate those people on their good luck.

Just like this again and again, not to mention those who were not very good-tempered, even the best tempered among the crowd were full of anger at the inexplicable orders of the master, but they held it in their hearts and had a bad seizure.

Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally looked forward to the inner disciple who led the team. This person's cultivation is in the realm of heaven and man, and it is not low, but why does he stand there stupidly and in a daze as soon as he appears? Could it be that the division sent a nerd to lead the team?

"It's just a joke" Among the outer disciples, a man with a long body, thick limbs, and strong facial features couldn't help but complain to his friends using the method of sound transmission, "Treasure hunting is a technical job, how can you let a stupid and stupid guy lead the team?" The critical moment kills people"

"You don't have to wait until the critical moment to have a big problem in front of you." A man with long narrow eyes and a deep heart just by looking at his appearance said, "The twelve of us can just form a four-hour flow formation." This formation is infinitely useful, but there is a limit to the number of people, and one more person or one less person will not work. When it's time to explore, we form a formation, what will he do? ”

When these words were asked, everyone immediately looked at each other—although there were countless opportunities in that small world, there were also countless dangers. They had seen at least six or seven strong teams, and none of them had been able to come out again

It is important to know that the enemies of treasure hunters include not only the dangers inherent in small worlds, but also those who are greedy treasure hunters. Compared to the danger in the small world, perhaps the danger from the treasure hunter is greater

Among this group of outer disciples, there are several professional veterans who almost emptied their own family funds for this expedition, and only then did they manage to gather the raw materials and refine them into twelve array flags. In the array flags, the power of four hours and twelve minutes of time was extracted, and turned into twelve spirit gods, such as rats, cows, tigers, rabbits, dragons, snakes, horses, sheep, monkeys, chickens, dogs, and pigs.

For most of the past half a year, they have been practicing the four o'clock flow array, and they have really achieved tacit cooperation and are like one person. If he lost anyone now, the power of the entire Great Array would be drastically reduced—not to mention, this stupid-looking inner disciple would probably not understand this formation at all......

The truth is not complicated, everyone wants to get it. Their original plan was to wait for a while, wait for the inner disciple to come, and if this leader was willing to participate in the formation, then let the lowest cultivator among the people withdraw, and then everyone would try to compensate her in the future. But after more than half a year, they found that the companion with the lowest cultivation was extremely talented in judging the formation on the spot, and was very suitable to be the operation center of the entire formation, which could greatly improve the strength of the entire team.

As a result, things fell into a dilemma.

"What to do? You can't let Xiao Yue go, without her as the operator, the power of the Four Seasons Flow Array will be reduced by at least thirty percent."

"Joking is not such a critical moment, one percent is already the boundary between life and death, and lowering it by three percent is simply equivalent to our lives No matter what, Xiaoyue must not go"

"Except for Sister Xiaoyue, I am the one with the lowest cultivation. Anyway, the sub-rat array banner I am responsible for is rarely really useful, so it is better to let me step down. ”

"I don't know if the inner disciple is willing to deign to participate in our formation...... You're all talking too soon."

"He's not stupid, how could he be unwilling to participate in the Four Seasons Streaming Array?"

"Look at the way he looks, and then you can really tell me with confidence that he's not stupid?"

“…… No. ”

"If you can't, then not only is he stupid, but you are also blind"

"But there has to be a solution."

"Solve what...... The problem is not with us, but with him. If he is willing to back down, there is no problem at all. But this kind of guy from the inner door often has eyes on the top of his head, and only uses his nostrils to see people, how can he give in to us? ”

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid that he will command in the small world, and when the time comes, he will have the life talisman of the inner disciple, and he can escape directly back to the master, and we will be miserable."

"yes, what should I do?"

Everyone was whispering and distressed, but Wu Xie had already woken up from his contemplation.

With his supernatural powers, the sound transmission method of these outer disciples was no different from speaking directly in front of him. Hearing that everyone was quite distrustful of him, he couldn't help but secretly shake his head in his heart.

He didn't know why Senior Eldest Sun Xue forced these outer disciples to wait here for more than half a year, but since she did this, there must be a suitable reason, but she didn't bother to explain it - maybe she also wanted to test everyone to see if anyone could have enough understanding to understand her deep meaning.

But now it seems that her hard work has been in vain. Although these disciples did not waste most of their time in vain, they did not think deeply about the meaning of the master's order at all, which is a pity

Wu Xie also noticed that among the twelve people, two of them were the most special, and they were also the hardest working when they were clamoring and inciting.

These two people have long and narrow eyes, their expressions reveal a cunning and gloomy meaning, and there is a faint evil spirit on their bodies, and they are afraid that they have done a lot of bad things; The other person was handsome and upright, but there was a frivolous and frizzy aura in his bones, and an extremely obvious sense of impatience slowly rose from his heavenly spirit cover, turning into a yellowish floating cloud that ordinary monks could not see, shaking and trembling above his head, without stopping for a moment.

The former person is just an ordinary despicable person, Wu Xie has seen a lot of such goods, and he has taught a lot of lessons; The latter person is quite special, seeing that his luck is so strange, Wu Xie is really unheard of, and it is impossible to know his origin.

"This is buoyancy, generally speaking, it is the luck that can only occur after the reincarnation of monks who have walked in front of the threshold of immortality and are about to hit the last step, but died unexpectedly." Fortunately, there is a Ye Hong in the Tianshu World who has obtained the true inheritance of Jiang Zhenjun, she brushed the long hair covering her right eye, and said with a little disdain, "He has no memory of his previous life, but he can never forget the pain and regret of dying unexpectedly when he saw that he was about to succeed." Therefore, when cultivating in this life, he desperately took shortcuts and tried every means to speed up - you can scan his body with divine thoughts, if my estimate is right, he should not even be three hundred years old this year. ”

"What?" Wu Xie was taken aback - this person's cultivation has already reached the Dao Fruit level, although it can be seen that the foundation is not strong, but after all, there is also hope - at least theoretically there is hope - how can a person who has achieved immortality be less than three hundred years old

But he tried to sweep his thoughts, and he was sure that Ye Hong was really not wrong.

Judging from the breath sensing of this person's body, he really hasn't even reached the age of three hundred yet

Dao Fruit Monk who is less than three hundred years old...... Wu Xie couldn't help but secretly speak, such a character, the Yujing faction would be placed in the outer gate because of his weak foundation, if he went to another sect, at least Wu Xie himself, he would not be able to make this determination.

If the foundation is not strong, it can slowly make up for the longevity of Brother Ma Daoguo, who is only less than three hundred years old, which is almost equivalent to a complete 10,000 years. 10,000 years, how can I make up for it?

Although the other party has a shallow foundation, he is also a Dao Fruit monk after all. Wu Xie swept his thoughts, and was immediately discovered, turned to Wu Xie as a gesture, although he was very polite, but did not implicitly say: "In the Xia Zhong Dynasty, I have seen Taoist friends." I don't know what to call a Taoist friend? Why are you in a daze when you meet, and then suddenly check with your thoughts? Don't you think there's some suspicious character down there? ”

This person spoke quite sharply, and Wu Jie's actions were indeed a little rude, so he had to smile bitterly twice, and apologized after introducing himself.

What's a little bad is that when he apologized, this Zhong Chao didn't speak, but the narrow-eyed one said: "In Xia Xiaoshan, he is also an outer disciple." We have a big problem in front of us, and we are about to ask Senior Brother Wu for advice. ”

Wu Xie roughly guessed a few points, and sure enough, what Xiao Shan said was the problem of the four o'clock flow array.

"I've been discussing it again and again, but I really don't know who to remove from the big array. It just so happens that the senior brother sent the senior brother to preside over the overall situation, and this kind of thing should be decided by the senior brother."

"Yes, Senior Brother is the head of the line, and we naturally listen to Senior Brother's orders. This kind of major matter, it is true that only the senior brother has the right to decide" As soon as Xiao Shan opened his mouth, everyone echoed and handed over the responsibility to Wu Jie.

Looking at their somewhat uneasy and suspicious eyes, Wu Xie couldn't help but sigh secretly and shook his head in his heart.

People who do great things pay attention to an order and prohibit, no matter whether the order is right or wrong, in short, it will be implemented first. Even if there is any doubt, it should be clearly raised after the implementation, rather than thinking of using various methods to soft confrontation before it has been implemented.

At the end of the Warring States period, Bai Qi, the head of the four famous generals, was a person who could not do this. He was dissatisfied with King Qin's orders, so he fabricated a series of stories such as his illness and the heavy losses of the Qin army to soft confrontation, disobeyed King Qin's orders three times and twice, and was finally executed by King Qin, but he was still obsessed and didn't know where he was wrong - the military order is like a mountain, and those who violate the order are beheaded, what is there to talk nonsense When he led the troops in vain, what should he do when he encountered this kind of thorn in the thorn of death? Is it because we are patient and reasonable? Of course, it's a knife down

These disciples probably don't have Bai Qi's strategy, but this style of doing things makes Wu Xie can't help but think of Bai Qi.

Although he sighed in his heart, his face did not show anything on his face, his eyes calmly swept over everyone, and then smiled.

"To be honest, I don't know how to flow into the big array at four o'clock." The first thing he said made everyone secretly complain, "But, I'm interested in doing an experiment with you." ”

"What experiment?" A tall man who looked like he might be the head of the crowd asked.

"I'm standing here, and you're attacking me in a great formation. Everyone has some strength and points to the end. In this way, I can have a more intuitive impression of the Four Seasons Flow Injection Array, and your questions will probably be answered. ”

When Wu Xie proposed this method, everyone couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Anyone can see that he is trying to exert his supernatural powers. But no matter how powerful his magical powers are, after all, he is just a monk in the realm of heaven and man. Among the twelve outer disciples, there are two in the Guangdao Fruit Realm, four in the Heavenly and Human Realm, and the remaining six in the Dharma Realm - with this formation forming a four-time flow array, if you strike with all your strength, I'm afraid that even the Yang God True Immortal will have to avoid the edge for the time being, right? A monk in the realm of heaven and man is afraid that he will be beaten to the ground with no bones left, and he will not even be able to find a slightly larger fragment

"Senior brother, don't be joking......" The big man smiled bitterly and tried to persuade.

But Wu Xie was very resolute and wanted them to give it a try.

They had no choice but to take out their array flags and wave them, and all kinds of light rose, connecting end to end, turning into a ring and surrounding Wu Xie in it.

"Do you really want to do it?" A timid looking girl said, "This is no joke

"Let's try to be as leisurely as possible, seeing that he is so confident, he shouldn't be beaten to death......" The leading man was very unconfident in his speech, and at a glance he knew that he was coaxing himself.

"Actually, if it hurts him badly, it's not bad." Xiao Shan, with narrow eyes, said gloomily, "He lost such a big face, what else can he do except get out?" Without this stupid hindrance, we can go on a treasure hunt without any problems."

Everyone is still talking to each other, but their transmission can't hide Wu Xie at all. Wu Xie felt more clearly that when Xiao Shan's words came out, at least four or five of the twelve people changed color slightly, and there was a faint sense of fierceness, obviously to put Xiao Shan's suggestion into practice.

But Wu Xie clearly felt that Xiao Shan himself did not have the slightest intention of being aggressive, and when he thought that when he would make a move later, he would definitely not contribute to the work, and push the responsibility of "missing and injuring the same door" to others.

The power of the Four Seasons Injection Array was extraordinary, and a single miss would likely kill Wu Xie - at least in Xiao Shan's opinion. He is merciful, and others are heavy, it is because others lack proportion, but it is none of his business.

This is like a group of older unmarried young people on the street when they see a slut hugging left and right, enjoying the blessings of all people, everyone will definitely be envious, jealous and hateful, and some of them may say something like "Heaven punishes dogs and men and women, where is the flame of my big FFF group, this kind of slut must be burned" and something like that.

Naturally, there is no harm in saying this, but if someone draws the wind and really sets people on fire - this is definitely not the responsibility of the proposer, and the blame can only be blamed on the brain that lit the fire

Wu Xie didn't know if Xiao Shan meant the same thing, but he was secretly in his heart, and he couldn't help but kill.

There are things that can be done, some jokes can be made, but there are also things that cannot be done, and some jokes cannot be made. A man would use such a scheming against his fellow disciples, who have been good friends for many years, and he is simply an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf

Such an insidious and despicable villain, he can't be left behind
