Chapter 60: Provocation
Xiao Bai in Elder Chen's eyes is really white, but Xiao Bai is really not small. After living for three hundred years, there is nothing I haven't seen!
It's not that people don't understand the world, it's just that they don't want to do some things.
When people encounter problems, there is always a measure, to weigh the severity, to weigh the pros and cons, to weigh the right and wrong.
How to choose!
Xiaobai feels that he is a normal person, not stupid, not greedy, and not pedantic.
He thinks that there is an optimal solution for everything, that is, the one that everyone combined has the most benefits and the least losses.
He has been a deacon for a hundred years, and he has always dealt with problems based on this principle. Over the years, some people have benefited from him, and some people have suffered from him.
Perhaps those who have gained may not have the best of him, but those who have suffered losses will not hate him to the bone.
In fact, Xiaobai doesn't care about this, he thinks that how others see him is incidental. Just do what you have to do and keep the work in hand running smoothly.
Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans.
Over the years, Xiaobai has also reaped the results of adapting to his own behavior.
He was the most respected of all the deacons, but he was also the least existent.
He was the smoothest of all the deacons, but he was also the least meritorious.
Now, in the Hongtoushan Mine, he is the lowest status of all the deacons, and he is the kind of disgruntled member who manages the mining area. But when something happened, he was the one who wanted to carry the banner.
Xiao Bai knew very well that no matter how beautiful Elder Chen said, if the battle was won, it would be the merit of the elders, and the merits of those deacons who fought with the elders. But if this battle is lost, it will be the responsibility of the white deacon who is responsible for defending the mining area.
Things are so clear and clear, Xiaobai is Xiaobai, and it is really white.
How did he get to this point? Xiaobai could find 360 reasons, but none of them could convince him.
"Lao Bai! You're back, I've eaten up the meat, I didn't leave it for you!" Xiao Bai had just returned to the No. 6 mining area when he heard someone poking him in the heart.
Indeed, no matter how white he is, he is much more sophisticated than these pure miners.
"No more work in the afternoon!" Old Bai roared, his voice trembling slightly.
"Can you not open it?" muttered someone next to him.
Lao Bai glanced at him, and couldn't help but burst into a rude: "I don't want to have a meeting, it's slippery!"
Less, all the people are together, Lao Bai Mo counted again, fifty-two, only counting the miners no more and no less, counting the stone calcants then there are two less.
Lao Bai was a little hesitant, the two ...... under the mountain Why don't you call them up for a meeting or wait and talk to them alone?
"I'm going to call the second fool and the third fool to come up!" Just as Lao Bai hesitated, Yang Gong, who had never spoken, opened his mouth.
Lao Bai was silent for a while, and then nodded: "It's okay!"
Yang Gong went down the mountain, and while waiting, there was silence on the field.
Lao Bai was worried in his heart, the miners were more worried than him, there were no secrets in this world, and the big guys knew what was going on.
Brother Jindan's footsteps didn't have to be said, and after a while, the three fools of Jindan came up side by side, and the aura of nothingness brought some peace of mind to the big guy for no reason.
The three fools sat down, and Lao Bai started with a sigh, and then there was silence.
"Don't pretend! Say it!" Qi crippled the rice spoon and knocked on the stone at his feet, and said angrily.
Lao Bai smiled bitterly: "Duobao Sect is coming to rob the mine, I will send a set of clothes for the guards of the Hidden Sword Gate to the big guys when I go back, everyone guard the mountain pass, don't let people rob our stones, that's all!"
The miners were silent.
After a long time, Qi Cripple spoke: "Why!"
Lao Bai frowned: "Are you asking me to reason with you, or are you telling the truth?"
"Let's talk about the big truth!" it turned out to be Yang Gong who spoke.
Everyone looked at Dasha in amazement.
Deacon Bai coughed lightly: "You are all miners hired by my Hidden Sword Gate, everyone is responsible for guarding the mine, there are robbers who want to rob us, naturally we want to drive them away, we should share!"
Dasha nodded without hesitation: "This makes sense, send me a set of clothes!"
The miners shook their heads, apparently this reason that had convinced Dasha had failed to convince them.
"What about the truth?" Qi Cripple asked.
The white deacon glanced around, looked at the miners of different shapes, and said word by word: "You have no choice. ”
The sound of panting on the field instantly became heavy.
Qi Cripple stood up: "You have no right to decide our fate. ”
Deacon Bai shook his head and chuckled: "Who in this world can decide their own destiny? Do you think I am willing to fight?"
Qi Cripple shook his head: "You are the deacon of the Hidden Sword Gate, we are just miners, you are different from us." ”
The white deacon sighed softly: "It's nothing different, it's just a poor worm who can't help himself!"
One of the miners whispered: "I don't want to fight, I just want to dig and mine for a living, why bother me?"
Deacon Bai smiled bitterly: "It's not that I want to force you, or maybe no one is forcing you at all, it's just that we haven't been able to embark on the road where we can make a living in peace!"
The crowd was silent.
Deacon White continued: "I am just a little deacon, and there is not much I can do for everyone, I can only say that I try to get more rewards for everyone, if ...... If everyone survives. ”
"White Deacon, I won't fight!" it was Wu Qingshui who spoke.
Lao Bai sighed secretly, what should come is still coming after all.
"If Brother Wu really doesn't want to fight, I can't stop it. Deacon Bai raised his eyes and looked at Wu Qingshui: "Brother Wu can go to Elder Chen by himself, as long as Elder Chen agrees, everything is fine." ”
"I ......" Wu Qingshui was a little entangled, looking for Elder Chen to identify himself? In that case, the fight may not be necessary, but the trouble is big.
Deacon Bai continued: "Actually, I don't think it's appropriate for Brother Wu to leave at this time. ”
Wu Qingshui frowned, Deacon Bai was right, he was the official elder of the Hidden Sword Sect, and the sect had encountered a big battle, and he couldn't say anything about it if he left timidly. But he's a technician, and it's not appropriate for you to let him strip off his arms and fight with others, right?
Wu Qingshui was entangled, but Qian Yang next to him was not so entangled.
That's already the case, the war doesn't mean that you can't fight if you want to, and now at this time, you definitely can't run, so let's fight.
However, how to fight in the end, you can still study it.
"I don't want to fight in the col anymore, I can't use my spiritual power, and I don't know the bottom of my heart!" Qian Yang opened his mouth.
Deacon Bai chuckled: "Brother Qian can't use spiritual power in the mountain col, and the people of the Duobao Sect can't use spiritual power, it's all the same. ”
"No!" Qian Yang shook his head firmly: "My combat power is still good, if I can use spiritual power, I believe my value is even higher." ”
Deacon Bai shook his head: "Brother Qian thinks that his combat power is better than that of the disciples of the Duobao Sect, if both sides can use the spiritual power freely, you are confident that you can withstand the magic weapon and thunder fire bead of the Duobao Sect?"
Qian Yang smiled: "You can try." ”
Deacon Bai narrowed his eyes: "Where is Brother Qian from?"
Qian Yang shrugged: "A small sect in the eastern part of the mainland. ”
"Perhaps, Brother Qian has a misunderstanding about the level of the monk's combat power?" Deacon Bai felt that Qian Yang might have lacked some vision.
Qian Yang stood up: "If Deacon Bai doesn't believe it, it's better to ...... Let's try our hands?"
Deacon Bai jumped up suddenly, he really didn't expect that Qian Yang would dare to provoke him.
That's right, this is a blatant provocation!
Wu Qingshui pulled Qian Yang's sleeve, and said in his heart, Did you take the wrong medicine today?
Deacon Bai's eyes gradually glowed, he had been entangled in trivial matters for many years, and he hadn't fought much, but he still had the confidence to be an excellent disciple of the Hidden Sword Sect.
The Hidden Sword Gate is known as the world's first combat power, and Deacon Bai is by no means a mediocre hand, he can achieve Jindan, and he also fought with a sword and a sword when he was young, and he was afraid of who would come when he fought.
"Brother Qian are you sure you want to try your hand with me?" Deacon Bai's spiritual power did not move, but the momentum of the whole person instantly rushed into the sky, and the sharpness of the sword cultivation was vividly reflected in an instant.
Qian Yang was unmoved: "What Deacon Bai said is right, we may not have the right to decide our own fate, but I think it's okay to adjust the direction of our heads before we die." ”
White Deacon took a deep breath: "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to adjust!"
Qian Yang smiled slightly: "After all, you have to try to know." ”
"Follow me down the mountain!" Deacon Bai was also really angry, he couldn't do anything with Wu Qingshui, but the surnamed Qian dared to blow up the thorns, he really couldn't bear it.
Qian Yang showed an indifferent smile, and followed Deacon Bai down the mountain with light steps.
He is not targeting the white butler, let alone willing to fight, but he has his own insistence on when to fight and when to replace.
Lao Bai and Qian Yang disappeared along the path, and the miners looked at each other, and the big fool and the two stupid stared at each other.
No one here has ever seen the three fools so aggressive. In their impression, the three fools are harmless silly boys, a little gen, a little stupid, a little stupid, a little bit of everything, just no temper!
Yang Gong couldn't help but lower his voice and asked Wu Qingshui, "Now even the stone master has learned to fight?"
Wu Qingshui glanced at him angrily: "Even the formation master is going to take off his arms and fight, what can't the stone master fight!"
Yang Gong rolled his eyes: "Do you think he can beat Lao Bai?"
Wu Qingshui didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Do you think you can beat Lao Bai?"
Yang Gong frowned: "I saw Lao Bai fighting five years ago, and he was very fierce, so he didn't dare to go forward and make do with it at that time." ”
"Waste!" Wu Qingshui gave Yang Gong a disdainful look.
Yang Gong's face turned red: "I don't have to fight with him, otherwise I won't necessarily be afraid of him." ”
"Got it! You're a waste. Wu Qingshui twisted his hips beautifully.
The time for a stick of incense passed, and there was a sound of footsteps in the distance.
Everyone craned their necks and looked towards the end of the path, only to see Deacon Bai and Qian Yang returning side by side, both of them with gentle smiles on their faces, talking and laughing all the way.
"Who won?"
"I can't see it!"
"Did you fight or didn't you fight?"
The miners talked a lot, but they couldn't come to the conclusion they wanted.
Wu Qingshui didn't figure it out, so he pushed Yang Gong hard with his shoulder: "Can you see who won?"
Yang Gong's eyes flashed: "Lao Bai won." ”
"How do you know?" asked Wu Qingshui.
Yang Gong smiled: "Didn't you see that Lao Bai was so happy that his head was bigger than usual!"
