Chapter 36: Bamboo Blossoms
Blazing Yang listened, and didn't react for a while, "Which heirloom?" ”
The old god of Jiuyou was on the ground with his arms crossed, squinting at him pretending to be confused.
The reason why she said this was actually because she was inspired by the "Underworld Canon". After Blazing Yang gave this book to Shen Yuan, he mentioned it many times later, and every time his tone was regretful, as if he handed over not a book, but his half life.
After Jiuyou learned about it, he secretly communicated with Shen Yuan, no matter how Blazing Yang mentioned it, Shen Yuan pretended not to know what he meant. Shen Yuan was a gift from him, what is the reason for him to give it away?
The turtle card is in hand, but Jiuyou has put it aside because he doesn't know how to use it; At the same time, the "Underworld Canon" was in hand, but because of its characteristics, it could work at any time.
Everyone who reads the "Underworld Canon" can see stories related to themselves in the book. What Shen Yuan saw was the ending in the original novel "Nine Leaps and Ascensions"; What Jiuyou saw was the identity of the daughter of the Immortal Emperor that he couldn't reveal to anyone.
So, if you let this puppet witch go to see the Underworld Canon, what will she see? Is it Kim Sung's, or is it her own?
If, when she watched it, Jiuyou arranged for a gold dust firefly who could spy on the truth to read her heart, wouldn't she be able to know her weaknesses?
As the adopted son of the lord of Suiyang City, Chi Yang has become an image of a gentleman who does whatever he wants under the backdrop of the pines and cypresses that he grew up with. Fortunately, he understands basic etiquette, that is, he loves face, and he didn't have the cheekiness to go back after regretting sending something.
Jiuyou brought up this matter again, helping him recall what he had said. Seeing Blazing Sun's reaction at this time, he already knew that this bet was one of the treasures he brought from Suiyang City, but he didn't know which one it was, or which treasure it was.
He was showing off how many treasures he had in his house when he was fine, and now he wouldn't overturn his own words, would he? Such a petty behavior, I believe he disdains to do it.
The heirloom that Jiuyou wanted refers to another treasure that Blazing Yang said when he vaguely asked Shen Yuan for something back after Blazing Yang repented.
According to him, that heirloom is the "Canon of the Six Realms", which is one level higher than the "Canon of the Underworld" from the name, and its role is not only the story of the reader, but also the story of others.
If you really want to know something, you can click on it.
Different from the common sense of the Six Realms taught to her by Su Youjun in class, although Yan Ruyu and the Golden House are not included in this book, it can answer the questions that she can't ask because of her status as a time-traveler.
After the city lord of Suiyang City obtained these two books separately a few years ago, he generously gave them to him before he went out to study. Probably in the eyes of the city lord of Suiyang City, what was shown in the two books was of little use to him. It is said to be a family heirloom, but in fact, it is just to let the blazing sun not despise it.
In the mouth of the blazing sun, each of his treasures has a chance to become an heirloom.
So now, for him, on the one hand, he felt that playing dumb could delay the opportunity to make Jiuyou or Songbai re-mention someone else's things as a bet, although this possibility was very small; On the one hand, because he talks a lot on weekdays, he doesn't know when he told Jiuyou which treasure is used for family heirlooms.
***
Jiuyou looked at the blazing sun who was scratching his ears and cheeks while rolling his eyes to think of ideas, it seemed that he had grown wise, and knew that he should not hand over any treasures easily, and he was afraid that he would regret it later.
But the puppet witch would not understand his entanglement, her eyes stared at him sternly, and even deliberately looked at the place where he might have things on his body, afraid that he would obviously have a treasure hidden on his body, but he was reluctant to take it out to support her.
Seeing Jin Cheng like this, every time he provoked the senior brother on weekdays, he was easily countered by the senior brother vividly, he rubbed for a while, and finally broke the gong, "Okay, senior brother, if we lose, I will hand over the heirloom that Jiuyou said." ”
The implication is that we don't necessarily lose anyway, and if we lose, we will say that we will lose.
The puppet witch thought about it and felt that it made sense. She doesn't have to put pressure on her teammates at the beginning, she should put pressure on the "enemy" on the opposite side.
So she cleared her throat and told everyone aloud:
"The rules are simple. That is, the six of us, went to Tongtian Island, stood at the entrance of the bamboo forest outside Tongtian Island, walked along the first bamboo we saw, and every time we saw a flowering bamboo, we voted to keep one person, and so on. When there is only one person left, whichever side of us belongs to wins. ”
After speaking, the puppet witch glanced at Jiuyou meaningfully, as if asking her: Under what circumstances do you guess your good senior brothers would choose to abandon you as a burden?
Jiuyou met her gaze fearlessly, and his heart had already begun to analyze the rules of the game.
Survival game?
Knock-out?
Although she rarely played this type of game before, she knew the basic rules and techniques. Often this kind of live-action battle royale game, the things tested have nothing to do with physical strength, strength, and even psychological endurance. The most important thing is luck.
A very simple example is this: choose one of two glasses of wine, and whoever chooses the non-toxic one will survive.
She had heard the saying "move as soon as the bamboo blooms", to the effect that the blooming of bamboo is a bad omen, which will bring bad things to people and even the death of life.
But the flowering of bamboo is also a rare occurrence, and after they enter the bamboo forest, no one knows if they can see the flowering bamboo. And how far away each two flowering bamboos are, and what will happen in between, affect everyone's vote, is even more unpredictable.
Nether Lord said that Tongtian Island is far bigger than everyone sees, and there are opportunities and crises in it. The periphery alone can make countless people lose themselves in it.
Therefore, Tongtian Island is a holy place for cultivation on the surface, but it is actually a forbidden place for Wangyou Mountain, which is also the reason why the Netherworld Monarch has been slow to let them go to Tongtian Island for adventures.
Senior Sister Kwai Er back then, it was precisely because she picked the flowers of Tongtian Island that she was poisonous. And Senior Sister Kwai Er has studied all kinds of poisons and is not easy to be poisoned.
Therefore, the puppet witch proposed this competition rule, as if to say, "Let's go, let's go to the forbidden land and be happy together, and then be severely punished by the master".
But when Ye Yan expressed his doubts, the puppet witch directly blocked his words, "You can try to cultivate on the periphery of Tongtian Island, if you don't go to the unknown realm, how can you grow, how can you know what level your current strength has reached?" ”
She said disdainfully: "I've been with Master for so many years, can I still not be clear about Master's thoughts?" If Master really wants to punish you, I will take this responsibility. ”
The puppet witch even knew that Songbai would go to the canyon to collect medicine for Jiuyou, and naturally she would also know that Jin Cheng, as a senior brother, was also the apprentice who had been by the Nether Monarch's side for the longest time.
It seems that in order to successfully break into the Five Elements Sect, the puppet witch really spent a lot of time collecting information.
As soon as this remark came out, because it was too convincing, Ye Yan had to shut up.
***
Jiuyou came to Tongtian Island for the second time, and his mood was already different.
Last time, the Nether Lord flew up with the six of them in an instant, and this time it was the six of them who flew up according to their abilities. It shows that they are all growing, after all, when Jiuyou fell into the lake, only Jin Cheng was an apprentice who could fly, and the others could only watch.
A long time has passed, and everything that has happened seems like yesterday.
In the chatter of the puppet witch, the six of them came to the bamboo forest.
According to the puppet witch, no matter how you look at the rules of the competition, the rules of the competition she set are all farewell strengths, pine and cypress are wood, and they are naturally close to any plant.
Jiuyou immediately reversed her mind and understood that the puppet witch's true intention was actually to make rules that were beneficial to herself.
- Excluding the luck that Jiuyou thinks is the most important, that is the second most important psychological warfare.
It seems that the puppet witch's plan is to attack the heart. Sow discord on a psychological level and tear them apart.
After entering the bamboo forest, Shen Yuan has been guarding Jiuyou's side. They will find the flowering bamboo, and they may first encounter various cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. Therefore, the premise of the competition is to protect yourself.
The six of them gradually divided into three small groups: a group of Blazing Yang Yeyan, a group of Nine You Shenyuan, and a group of Songbai and Puppet Witches.
Chi Yang didn't expect that the brothers who grew up together would actually choose the senior brother, and frequently looked at them, although he was unwilling, he couldn't disobey the idea of the senior brother.
The senior brother has always been the shortest of the five teenagers, and he has lost a bit of momentum. But when it comes to fighting, he definitely can't beat it.
After walking wordlessly all the way for a while, Jiuyou, who was focused on his personal thoughts, was still reminded by Shen Yuan to react, and it turned out that the three groups of people had already dispersed.
As far as she could see, she could only see Shen Yuan alone. Shen Yuan saw her looking, so no matter which side she looked at, he stood in front of her, blocking her view, causing the momentum of "you can only have me in your eyes".
Jiuyu slapped him on the shoulder in amusement. Guessing that he couldn't hold back his thoughts from exchanging ideas with himself, he told her plans and plans.
It turns out that what Jiuyou wants to do is to raise the puppet witch's expectations of the "Six Realms Canon", so that she can find an opportunity to use the "Underworld Canon" to drop it, so as to learn the puppet witch's weaknesses and save Jin Cheng.
The worst plan is that she fails to get the "Canon of the Six Realms", and she becomes a mute.
Although she hadn't guessed why the puppet witch wanted her voice, it was probably for some shady purpose. She also wanted to tell the puppet witch freely, you can take this voice if you want to, but unfortunately her strength does not allow it.
It's not just her personal strength, but also the strength of her, Shen Yuan, and Songbai combined.
Songbai can actually be counted as the other side, she and Shen Yuan are two or four.
She also wondered why the Nether-Monarch would run to find the missing Sorrowful Monarch when he found out that something was wrong with the eldest apprentice. Isn't this as the puppet witch wants, making it easy for her to become the decision-maker in the Five Elements Sect?
She boldly guessed that the Nether Lord was still looking at some corner of the mountain, watching them, but he wouldn't show up until the last resort.
Of course, this is just a reasonable guess based on the consistent style of the Nether Monarch, and it is a time when guesses are wrong. Guess wrong, it's her who suffers.
