Old man Gu nodded at Mo Buping as a sign of encouragement, and Mo Buping asked, "A few of us have made an appointment to go on a cruise to Mochou Lake to analyze tomorrow's battle situation together, will Senior Gu go with us?"

"Go ahead, I've got something to do, I'll be there later. ”

Old man Gu went to an inn outside the Shengqi Building, came to a guest room he had chartered three days ago, checked the Weidao talisman hidden in the lintel, and found that everything was as before, so he pushed the door and entered, sitting silently at the table and waiting.

About an hour later, he waited for the person to wait, a total of four monks, the leader was a ** master, and the remaining three were Jindan. The four of them have ordinary faces, and they belong to the kind of people who are not particularly familiar and difficult to recall clearly.

Don't look at the ordinary face, but the ability is not ordinary, they are all dead soldiers who have been cultivated by Old Man Gu for twenty years, personally training the exercises, and personally preparing suitable magic weapons for them, so that he has been practicing the Four Elephants Combined Attack Technique for ten years, and the combat power is extremely strong when he assassinated, and he once ambushed a refiner in a certain pavilion five years ago and no one knows it, and the name of the refiner is still on the missing list of the East Pole Pavilion, and the sect is still waiting for news.

With such a lineup, it is easy to assassinate a newly received ** division!

However, what seemed to be an easy thing failed today, and seeing the expressions of these people, Old Man Gu knew the result.

"Sit down. What's going on?"

The leading ** division sat down and said, "No one came, I don't know where to go." ”

Old man Gu was a little surprised: "I saw him walking back." ”

"I don't know, I just didn't see anyone. I asked Xiaosi to look for him and didn't see him, and I don't know if he went there temporarily, or if he took another way back to Baoyue Villa, just like last time at the mouth of Wuyi Lane. ”

"No, this time it's different from Wuyi Lane, it's uncertain whether he can enter Wuyi Lane or not, but this time it's three days in advance, and he takes this road every time he goes back...... Will you be exposed?"

"It wasn't exposed, and before we waited for him, we immediately changed places, and we deliberately paid attention to the ambush point, and after waiting for so long, we didn't see any sign that he brought people back to search. ”

"That means he escaped something temporarily?

"It should be. ”

Old man Gu thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, next time you see it, let's go back quickly." ”

The leading ** teacher hesitated: "Teacher, do you really want to kill him?"

Old man Gu asked, "What do you mean?"

"Do the two mistakes mean that he is a man favored by God? I heard that he can predict the great drought and pray for rain and snow......

Old man Gu said angrily: "What is favored by God? Let me tell you, he predicted the drought, and it was the plum blossom Yishu given by the Longyang Patriarch, and he lost his life for three years! If he was really favored by God, he could lose his life? Also, the rain and snow were not prayed for by him, but by coincidence! He had already said it privately many times, otherwise why hadn't he heard of him praying for rain for a whole year? Why didn't you let him go to the drought last year when there was a drought in northern Shanxi? You don't know these things. In my opinion, you all read too many periodicals, what you can believe and what you can't trust, you must have the most basic judgment!"

The ** teacher nodded slowly, and breathed a sigh of relief with the other three junior disciples: "As soon as the teacher said this, we were much more relieved." ”

Old man Gu said with some sadness: "Speaking of which, I still have to remind you once again to keep in mind one thing at all times, the family business that our master and apprentice have worked so hard to plan and grow is now about to be destroyed! Zhao Zhiran, Wei Chaozong, Dongfang Li, and even Qiu Yunqing and Zhuo Yunfeng, all of them are our great enemies! Getting rid of these people may not be able to save Xiu'an, but there may be a turnaround, Qiu Yunqing and Zhuo Yunfeng don't say it, but the other three must be killed as soon as possible, and Zhao Zhiran is the top priority! Last year, I judged that he might be bad for me and other big things, so I returned to the capital, but unfortunately I was too cautious and couldn't start as soon as possible, so that today's great changes ......"

After some admonition, Old Man Gu ordered that the gathering point be abandoned and go to find another inn again.

Before parting, several disciples asked, "Teacher, did you buy the lottery ticket we set for us?"

Old man Gu said: "I bought it, what are you panicking about! I will redeem it for you when I get it." I'll say it again, you have to sign to buy a lottery ticket, and you guys don't buy it privately. “

Several disciples agreed, so they parted from each other, and the old man Gu wandered to the Mochou Lake, walked along the shore for a while, and saw the painting boat that Mo Buping was riding.

As soon as he boarded the boat, he joined in the heated debate and offered his prediction of tomorrow's battle.

I have to admit that the prediction level of this small circle for the practice ball competition is still quite accurate, and basically they can support themselves by buying lottery tickets and live a relatively comfortable life, which shows the high winning rate.

This point has been fully proved in the first ** match on the second day, five people together bought a total of 1,000 note combinations, each cost 20 taels of silver, the winning rate generally reached more than 1 into 5, of which Mo Buping reached 20%.

A total of one hundred and fifty-seven taels were awarded, including Mo Buping and Old Man Gu, all of them made a profit of more than twenty-five taels, and only one person lost five taels.

For example, if a small casual cultivator like Mo Buping can earn ten taels or twenty taels in one period, it will be five or six hundred taels or even seven or eight hundred taels in a year, which is enough to ensure their good cultivation life. What's more, there is also a chance to win the prize, which is really indescribably comfortable.

After the prize was redeemed, everyone exchanged experiences, two of them were frequent visitors to the gambling hall in Beijing before, and they all said that since they played the lottery, they did not enter the gambling house, not only their own spirits, but also their families.

Old man Gu also smiled and sighed: "The old man used to gamble, lost two million silver, don't look at buying lottery tickets is just a small amount of money, but it is more meaningful than the simple Guan Pounce in the gambling house, the knowledge in this is really broad and profound, and he can't study it thoroughly for a lifetime, and the old man has quit gambling." When you study it thoroughly, plus a little good luck, you can win a million taels with one bet, which is a hundred times stronger than the gambling house!"

A few people talked about the lottery ticket that they were most concerned about in this issue, but it didn't bring you good news, it was won, but it was not a heavenly prize, nor a ground prize, a Xuan prize, but a Yu prize.

This year's competition was changed from the quarterfinals to the top ten, each group had one more, and the combination number was increased from twelve to fifteen groups, and the difficulty increased, but the award also added a Yu prize, which was before the person award, and after this issue was opened, it could be exchanged for one or two or six dollars.

The Yu Award also means that four of the fifteen events were guessed wrong, and someone was immediately disappointed: "What about Abbot Zhao, and the chief consultant of the organizing committee, it's not as good as Lao Tzu to buy a lottery ticket, and Lao Tzu is blind to buy it with him, what a thing!"

Mo Buping said: "I'm very happy, but I just won the Yu Award, which shows that there is no shady scene in the cultivation ball competition, and for us and other lottery players, nothing is more important than a benign competition." ”

Old man Gu also said: "It's not bad to be able to win one or two or six dollars, in fact, think about it carefully, if you really want to win the heavenly prize, how much can you get? I heard that there will be more people who buy this year, assuming that the prize pool of the heavenly prize grows to 20,000 silver, but how much can you get? Yesterday, just you and I were present, but more than 100 people bought this note, when you and I were not there, how long did this news spread? How many people will hear the news to buy this note? So even if you win the heavenly prize, it is also the most watery heavenly prize in history, and you can't get dozens of taels of silver. ”

When a few people thought about it, they were all happy, and the old man Gu said again: "Xiao Mo is right, for us, there is no shady curtain is the most important thing, thinking about the old man who participated in gambling in the past, why did he lose his family? It was really dark! It's a pity that the old man didn't think about it at that time...... I thought that we should think of a way, write a couplet or something, in short, it is all good words, send it to the incense burner Xuan, and express our heartfelt gratitude to Abbot Zhao and Li Yuan, and also create a momentum for the competition to become more and more popular, and do our best!"
