The two turned their heads and looked at Xi'e, who was coming quickly.

"The Yuquan Spirit Mirror can't see through at all." Xi'e didn't sell Guan Zi, and said directly, "It's not so much a spirit mirror, but a demon mirror." ”

"Looking in the Demon Mirror?" Li Su's heart jumped, and the rabbit in his arms couldn't help blinking, and a pair of rabbit ears drooped slightly.

"Looking in the mirror? For monsters? Yue Kui was surprised.

Xi'e bowed slightly, "In short, there is no need for you to leave at all." ”

Yue Kuilian looked at Li Su.

Tu Xiaochan also raised her head and looked at Li Su with blank eyes.

Li Su frowned and shook his head, "I have made up my mind, and I won't change it anymore." ”

Tu Xiaochan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yue Kui bit her lip.

"At this point, you'd better calm down first." Xi'e frowned and said, "There is no longer any obstacle between you and the Golden Scale Gate, don't miss the great opportunity that originally belonged to you because of a momentary battle of will." ”

"It's not a battle of wills." Li Su shook his head, looked at Xi'e, and said seriously, "You should have gone to Yuquan Mountain first to chase after you this time, and told Master Zhao about my abandonment of the assessment."

The gap between me and the Golden Scale Gate has already grown, and if I change my mind and choose to join the Golden Scale Gate, then this gap will only get bigger and bigger. ”

Seeing that Xi'e wanted to refute, Li Su interrupted directly and continued: "If you don't understand, I can give you a simple example.

You are the innkeeper, if the second child in the inn is looking for you to process money, you are reluctant at first, and then he will resign and leave.

At this time, you find that the inn is short of manpower, and you can't do without him for the time being, so you choose to keep him and increase his salary.

Tell me, if he chooses to stay, what will you think in the future? ”

"My inn, the second child is doing well." Xi'e was not angry, "The salary is five or six times higher than that of other places." ”

"What if what I said happened to me?" Li Su looked at Xi'e, "A big man like you has his own arrogance, and it is basically impossible to keep it."

If he is retained, it can only be because of the situation, and when the situation changes, he will definitely not be retained. ”

Xi'e furrowed her brows, and said in a sullen voice: "You underestimate Zhao Yuding's belly, not to mention, accepting apprentices and recruiting workers are completely different things." ”

"You said that I underestimated the belly of Zhao's head of the sect, which means that you also think that in this case, if I join the Golden Scale Gate, there is a gap between me and the Golden Scale Gate." Li Su said softly, "Master Zhao's belly is naturally very large, otherwise you wouldn't have come here."

However, my stomach is not large, and I have chosen to give up the assessment, and if I go back, I will feel very ashamed. ”

"You're still fighting for your will." Xi'e complained.

"Really?" Li Su smiled and nodded, "It's a battle of will, I'm still a teenager after all, and it's normal for a teenager to be angry." ”

"Think about Jiang Zuo." Xi'e persuaded, "Jiang Zuo has cultivated you for ten years, in order to make you a disciple of the Golden Scale Sect, you gave up because of a momentary mood, are you worthy of Jiang Zuo?" ”

"The small goal I set for myself is to defeat Wu Jian, in order to correct Lao Zuo's name." Li Su said.

"If you don't join the Golden Scale Sect, what will you do to defeat Wu Jian?" Xi'e sneered.

Li Su smiled, his smile was very bright, "If you say this, then I won't join the Golden Scale Gate, and I want to prove to you:

Even if I don't join the Golden Scale Gate, I can still defeat Wu Jian. ”

Xi'e: "??? ”

"Li Su..."At this time, Yue Kui couldn't help but shout.

Li Su shrugged his shoulders and gently rubbed the rabbit in his arms, "All in all, I am destined to lose my relationship with the Golden Scale Gate, I have made up my mind and will not change it again." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Yue Kui and said softly, "Let's go." ”

Yue Kui glanced at Xi'e.

Xi'e stared at Li Su coldly.

"Twisted melons are not sweet." Li Su couldn't help but persuade Xi'e.

In fact, he was a little puzzled in his heart, and he didn't understand why this woman wanted him to join the Golden Scale Gate so much.

If Yuekui kept persuading him to stay, he would still be able to understand.

But what is this woman for?

"It's true that the twisted melon is not sweet, but if you are extremely thirsty, you can still eat a few bites." A joking ethereal sound sounded in the ears of the three of them for a moment.

Zhao Yuding stepped in the air, his clothes fluttering, like an old fairy with fairy wind bones, from far to near, in an instant.

Yuekui's eyes lit up again.

Xi'e breathed a sigh of relief.

Tu Xiaochan lowered her rabbit ears again, and a little helplessness and apprehension flashed in her eyes.

Li Su looked at Zhao Yuding, who seemed to appear suddenly, his eyes swept over Zhao Yuding's empty left sleeve, and his brows furrowed slightly.

He remembered that Yue Kui had said that when Lao Zuo rebelled from the Golden Scale Gate, he had cut off Zhao Yuding's arm.

"Master Zhao?" Li Su shouted tentatively.

Zhao Yuding bowed slightly, gently brushed his beard with his right hand, looked at Li Su with his eyes, and praised: "It is indeed a generation of Tianjiao." ”

"Thank you Zhao for your love." Li Su said softly, "However, the juniors are destined to have no chance with the Golden Scale Sect, and they will disappoint the Zhao Sect." ”

"Do you know how to play chess?" Zhao Yuding asked with a smile.

Li Su paused, nodded and said, "It will be a little." ”

This is not modest.

Back then, after he learned to play chess, he played a total of nine games with Lao Zuo, and Lao Zuo gave up, and when he played chess again, the two played either chess or backgammon.

"Let's play a game of chess." Zhao Yuding smiled and said, "If you can win me, you can choose to continue to participate in the assessment, or you can choose to leave directly, and Senior Sister Xi'e and I will no longer stop you."

If you lose, it's not that you leave, it's that I don't want you. ”

Li Su raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Yuekui and Xi'e, and nodded, "Okay." ”

He knew that since Zhao Yuding had chased after him personally, this game of chess still had to be played.

With a wave of Zhao Yuding's sleeves, two round stools and a stone plate appeared and fell to the ground.

"Please." Zhao Yuding invited Li Su to take a seat.

"Master Zhao, please first." Li Su said politely, and sat on the stone benches on both sides of the stone plate with Zhao Yuding.

"Watching chess is silent, true gentleman." Zhao Yuding's left sleeve fluttered slightly, and wisps of true qi emanated out, permeating around him and Li Su, gradually forming a circular protective shield of true qi.

Yue Kui's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she found that she could only see Li Su, Zhao Yuding, and Shi Pan, and could not perceive the breath of Li Su and Zhao Yuding.

"Don't worry, it's an assessment." Xi'e said softly.

"Assessment..."Yue Kui was stunned for a moment, and immediately put his mind at ease.

Stone plates on both sides.

Zhao Yuding held the black, did not be polite to Li Su, and went straight to the first.

Li Su took out a white piece from the chess barrel and put it into the stone plate.

He played very casually, he didn't have any chess power, and he was destined to not win, and the reason why he accompanied Zhao Yuding to play this game of chess was purely for the sake of Lao Zuo and Yuekui's face.

As for winning or losing on the chessboard, it doesn't matter.

After more than ten steps in a row, Zhao Yuding's brows furrowed, and he glanced at Li Su opposite, "Do you not know how to go down, or do you not go down well?" ”

Li Su blinked and said: "Back then, Lao Zuo taught me to play chess, and after teaching me, I played nine games of chess with him, and he was no longer willing to play chess with me. ”

Zhao Yuding was stunned and complained: "Jiang Zuo's chess power is bad enough, even he is unwilling to play with you, it seems that your chess strength is really average." ”

"I disappointed Master Zhao." Li Su smiled.

"What? I said you're poor at chess, aren't you angry? Zhao Yuding raised his eyebrows slightly, "I heard that if others say that you are poor at painting, will you be anxious?" ”

Li Su's face was as usual, and he said: "This is a rumor, my painting work, even the painting saint Pei Xuanzi is ashamed of himself, who would say bad?" ”

"Really?" Zhao Yuding looked at Li Su, "Your shameless strength is very similar to when I was young." ”

"Uh......" A hint of strangeness flashed in Li Su's eyes, "Master Zhao said with a smile. ”

"Do you know why the first level of the assessment is to verify the correct body?" Zhao Yuding asked.

Li Su paused and shook his head.

Zhao Yuding said: "The exam questions of this first level were issued by my apprentices, in order to make the prince condescend, let the monk humiliate the Buddha, let the Taoist priest go against the sky, and let the children of the family lose face." ”

"I don't understand." Li Su said directly.

"You don't need to understand anymore." Zhao Yuding chuckled, "You gave up something very interesting. ”

"Perhaps." Li Su was noncommittal.

"You're very physical." Zhao Yuding said, "As soon as you came to Yuquan Mountain, I felt your blood. ”

Li Sudao: "Master Zhao praised it falsely. ”

"Jiang Zuo has ever told you about the origin of the name of the Golden Scale Gate?" Zhao Yuding asked.

Li Su shook his head.

Zhao Yuding suddenly asked, "What are the golden scales?" ”

"Fish?" Li Su thought for a moment and replied tentatively.

"In the battle of Taihu Lake, you said a word to Wu Fengyun: How can the golden scales be a thing in the pool, and they will turn into dragons when they encounter wind and clouds." Zhao Yuding looked at Li Su, "This sentence can be said to be tailor-made for my Golden Scale Gate." ”

"Dragons?" Li Su couldn't calm down.

"In the inheritance of my Golden Scale Gate, the first half of your sentence is right, and the second half of your sentence is wrong." Zhao Yuding smiled and said, "The golden scales are dragons, why do you need to meet the wind and clouds?" ”

"What is the second half of the sentence?"

"How can the golden scales be a thing in the pool, and they will be nine times in the sky."
