Chapter 1003: Lose the fight but not the battle
"Brother of the Yong family, why don't you go and take a look at your house?"
Yong Kai, who was drinking tea in a restaurant, heard someone greeting him like this. He turned his head and looked back. He didn't recognize the person, so he continued to play dead, not contacting or talking to anyone, so that others would assume that he didn't exist.
To be honest, he is a socially anxious person and really doesn't like communicating with others.
"Other families are preparing, aren't you going to prepare?" Xu Zijiang said to Yong Kai with a smile, "Tomorrow it will be the Ji family's turn to perform the summoning technique, aren't you going to watch?"
Yong Kai picked up a sign from the side and held it up. There was a line of words on it - the person in front of you is just a tool and will not answer any questions.
Xu Zijiang and Liu Liang looked at each other. The Yong family really didn't know what to say.
I'm so envious. This kind of rejection is enough to make most people give up communicating with the other party and feel a lot more peaceful.
"Aren't you going to participate in the summoning ceremony tomorrow?" Fan Liang asked in confusion.
Yong Kai sighed. He really didn't want to communicate with any human being, but there were some things you really couldn't avoid, just like the two guys opposite. They were a very famous duo of fortune tellers. They used to work alone, but now that they were together, it was simply a disaster.
The two men didn't know why they were targeting him, but he instinctively felt that there was trouble and that the other party was definitely looking for trouble.
"Hello, two fortune tellers." Yong Kai said in a low voice, "Do you want to eat anything? How about I treat you? How about we be idlers together?"
Xu Zijiang and Liu Liang were speechless. When faced with a guy like this with a clear attitude, no shame, and laziness, you really have no way to add fuel to the fire.
"There will be a big show tomorrow, aren't you going?" Liu Liang ate the food and tried his last effort.
"Go home and sleep." Yong Kai said that he was not interested in anything. He just wanted to finish the grand court meeting, go home, cover himself with a thick quilt, and have a good rest in the heating. He would not go out no matter who called him. He would resign when he returned, and whoever wanted to take the position could do so.
"You're a little too unsociable." Liu Liang said helplessly. After all, you are a descendant of a founding marquis. Can you have some motivation?
Yong Kai looked at Liu Liang as if he was a fool. His expression was almost like, "Are you a mentally retarded person? Aren't all the members of my Yong family always idle?"
The kind where we don't even come to attend the grand court meetings? We have always come once when the marquises are finished, when the legitimate son succeeds to the throne, and once when the previous emperor dies and the new emperor ascends the throne. Have you ever met my family at other times?
I will definitely not go, not watch, and not join in the fun. The quilts of the otakus are even enough to protect against nuclear radiation.
Xu Zijiang and Liu Liang looked at each other and said, this is not going to be a good thing. If Yong Kai doesn't go, we two have no guarantee that we can escape unscathed from tomorrow's chaos.
Yes, now all the noble families and schools have already conceded that there will be a big mess during tomorrow's summoning ceremony. As for how big the mess will be, no one is sure.
But it has come to this point, if anyone doesn’t go, wouldn’t that be admitting defeat? So even though everyone knows the danger, no one wants to back down.
Many companies have even replaced their original participants with their own real pillars.
For example, Hua Tuo had already replaced his own son and was planning to take the field himself, which was really dangerous.
If it was because he was afraid of trouble before and just went to join in the fun and take some measures to prevent accidents, but now it is really a matter of life and death. If Warren really lets him go, Hua Tuo is worried that Warren will not be able to come back alive.
Yong Kai left in a swagger. Xu Zijiang and Liu Liang wanted to keep him, but in the end they did not say a word.
"I really envy him. He doesn't need to get involved in anything and just lives his own life! "
"So you're not going to see it?" Liu Liang reached out and picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, and spoke casually.
"Is it okay not to go?" Xu Zijiang smiled bitterly.
"We are already deeply involved and can't get out." Liu Liang was silent for a while after hearing this and sighed. It's not that he doesn't want to break away, but it's already very difficult to break away. Unlike the Yong family, which has not participated in such networking activities for hundreds of years, they are all too deeply involved.
They have no way of escaping from this worldly dust, and now all they can do is struggle in it.
"Isn't this a good era?" Xu Zijiang looked at the carriage passing by below and felt vaguely frightened, and Liu Liang also looked at the carriage reflexively.
"There's a problem, right?" Xu Zijiang said with a sigh.
"Yes, it's a big problem. I think they are not summoning strange beasts, but they want to fight to the death. They don't want to go any further, right?" Liu Liang said quietly while looking at the frame. "The frame that just passed by is the frame of the Wei family, right?"
"Yes, it's the unfortunate Wei family. What has they come up with?" Xu Zijiang asked calmly.
"Haha, what else can their family do? Of course they want the blessing of their ancestors!" Liu Liang sneered twice.
Although he thought the Wei family was stupid when he heard the news, he couldn't laugh anymore due to the influence of the Three Gods of War.
Instead of dealing with crappy secret techniques these days, it is better to just pull up an ancestor. The things that Huo Qubing casually revealed are almost as good as the research of these aristocratic families. If the Wei family can really pull up General Wei, then it will be an absolute trump card.
"Depending on the situation, it might be a bit erratic!" Xu Zijiang shook his head.
"If it weren't for that guy, all those incompetent people in the Wei family would have been killed by the thunder long ago!" Liu Liang sneered.
It was really because of the good deeds of his ancestors. Huo Qubing also wanted to resurrect his uncle, so he supported the Wei family without leaving any trace. If it weren't for Huo Qubing, the Wei family would have messed up so much and all ten members of the Wei family would have died.
"Bury this in Shanglin Garden." The head of the Wei family looked at his retainers coldly. Ever since the Wei family encountered problems one after another, the Wei family was on the verge of collapse.
Therefore, as the head of the Wei family, he is under increasing pressure and is now ready to give it a try. As long as they can bring their ancestor back, it will be worth it to incur public outrage.
"Master, do you really want to bury this here?" The retainer half-knelt on the ground and asked respectfully. No one knew better than him what the consequences would be if this thing was buried.
If they fail, the Wei family will really fall into the bottomless abyss.
"Bury it." The head of the Wei family said coldly. He had no intention of returning alive from the meeting tomorrow. No matter success or failure, he would give an explanation to others by dying.
"Please help Marquis Guanjun!" Mosuo, the head of the Wei family, muttered with the dagger in his hand.
A ball of pale golden light was forcibly pressed into the base of the formation by the retainer. Under a strong will, this thing infiltrated into Shanglin Garden in the form of a military formation.
"Hey, kid, you're going a bit too far!" Han Xin frowned and looked at Huo Qubing.
At this moment, the bright light of will was flashing in Huo Qubing's hand, helping the head of the Wei family to integrate things into Shanglin Garden.
"No, I'll be here tomorrow and nothing will happen!" Huo Qubing's tone revealed strong confidence.
He is confident that he can suppress all problems.
The hope of resurrecting his uncle is right before his eyes, and he cannot help but give it a try.
Just as Han Xin and Huo Qubing looked at each other, Bai Qi smiled slightly.
"Let me help you. I also want to see what kind of person General Wei is!" A bright light of will also appeared in Bai Qi's hand, and a faint blood color began to cover Shanglin Garden.
"You two...really!" Han Xin was a little distressed, and then a bright light of will appeared on his hands.
Although he didn't major in spiritual cultivation, most of Shanglinyuan's designs were based on cloud energy and internal energy, so he could mobilize them easily.
"I'll just help you. I also want to meet General Wei!" Han Xin himself was not a stable person.
Since you can intervene, why can't I, Han Xin, intervene?
To go all out, just muddy the water.
…
The next day, Shanglin Garden was cleaned thoroughly. Han Xin and Bai Qi personally entered the military camp and took the three legions of Weiyang Palace to have a full meal. Then they entered Shanglin Garden in batches to be prepared for any eventuality. But for some reason, from the moment they led the troops into Shanglin Garden, Bai Qi and Han Xin felt a vague feeling of depression.
"Do you feel it?" Han Xin asked casually.
"Oh, pass the order down. Get ready for battle. I will be in charge of the protection with my will, and you will be in charge of the protection with the cloud energy." Bai Qi said calmly. This was acquired through years of training on the battlefield, and it was not an exaggeration.
"Where is that kid Huo Qubing?" Han Xin laughed and said, although he was feeling depressed, this little bit of pressure was not enough.
"He will bring the Yulin Army with him, and he is probably mobilizing them now!" Bai Qi said calmly.
"Oh? Are you really going to show your real skills?" Han Xin smiled with interest.
After all, the illusion cannot withstand their brilliance, and one can only have a general understanding of it, but just understanding it can give one a grasp of some of the basics.
Although Huo Qubing was weaker than the other two, Han Xin knew very well that their difference was in marching and fighting, not in other aspects.
The military situation is not just talk. To be one of the four major schools, it must have its merits.
If Huo Qubing led the Yulin Army and moved to the same era, he would not necessarily be weaker than Xiang Yu was back then.
Now Huo Qubing is going to put in all his effort, and he is a little curious about how far he can go.
He was very interested in the miraculous power that could directly destroy an empire .
To be honest, Li Que and his men are leading the Miracle Legion. Even if he has only miscellaneous soldiers under his command, he has the confidence to fight back. If he is given one or two elite soldiers, he can counterattack and grind them to death. If he is given another legion that can stop Miracle, he can kill Miracle in the ditch with a backhand.
In their eyes, the Miracle Legion is a sharp sword, but no matter how sharp it is, it depends on who uses it.
Both Li Que and Huo Qubing performed miracles, but there is no comparison between the two.
So Han Xin was very much looking forward to it, and Bai Qi was also looking forward to it.
Han Xin and Bai Qi were both truly military gods who dominated their time. Many times, they did not need any analysis or verification at all and could judge a lot of things based on their intuition.
What's more, both of them felt the same way, so what else could they say? There must be something wrong with this place, but for the God of War, as long as the army was by his side, any problem could be solved. Anyway, any problem that could be solved by war was not a problem for these people.
"Should we tell those guys?" Han Xin asked casually, pointing at the major leaders who were walking towards this side from a distance.
"It's dangerous to watch." Bai Qi said calmly, "Look at the fluctuations in their bodies, I think they are ready."
"Give me the thing. " The old man from the Mo family came from the Weiyang Palace, and when he arrived at the open space on the Shanglin Garden, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong. How to describe this atmosphere? It was the same feeling as when everyone worked together to kill Liang Ji, and then encountered Emperor Huan's Party Ban.
Therefore, the old man of the Mo family reflexively reached out to ask his grandson for the trump card. No matter what the reason is in this situation, you should prepare your weapons first, so that even if something goes wrong, you can protect yourself or self-destruct.
The Mo family disciple didn't understand what was going on, so he took out his weapon and handed it to the old man. Only after he got the weapon did the old man feel relieved.
"Grandfather, if this thing is activated like this, the etching will enter a state of disintegration. The weapon spirit we created is not a real spirit after all." The Mo family disciple looked at the thing in the hands of the old man of the Mo family with some regret.
This thing is the highest masterpiece of their Mohist school, the result of everyone's joint efforts. Although it can still be made, no one has the time, so it can be regarded as a lost treasure.
“It was made to be used.” The old man of the Mo family calmly picked up the short spear. In his eyes, he could even see something like characters smaller than corn flowing infinitely inside the spear. From the very beginning, this God-Slaying Spear had no entity and was a purely energy-based artifact.
I can still take care of the bottles and jars now, but it is a question whether I can get out today.
"You don't have to go in later, just go home and do your research."
"ah?"
"What? Go back and do your research. You are not qualified to participate in this kind of event!" The old man of the Mo family sneered and looked around.
The Mo family disciples nodded and did not continue to argue. They had to obey the orders of the Mo family grandfather. They just felt a little regretful because it looked like a very important event.
But it would be nice to be able to go back and do my own research directly. Coming out would always waste their research time.
The Xun, Chen and Sima families arrived together. From the moment they entered this shabby place, they didn't want to turn around and leave. Their intuition told them that this was a tiankeng, but they couldn't leave.
If they leave, it will be a slap in their own face and also a slap in the face of the Han Dynasty.
If he left, wouldn't that mean he didn't trust the various schools of thought and the Han Dynasty's imperial guards?
And there is also the Yulin Army. If they leave, where will the Han Dynasty's reputation be?
So the three of them silently used their spiritual energy to mount the Chang'an Cloud Qi, and once again thanked Lu Bu for refining the Chang'an Cloud Qi whenever he had time. At least now after mounting it, the safety was greatly improved, but they still felt unsure.
"You bastards, what the hell did you put in it!" Several people were cursing each other in their hearts.
Since it's not our own problem, it must be someone else's.
Soon, Kong Rong, Hua Tuo, Zhu Jun and others also came one after another. Of course, their faces were a little dark when they arrived, but as more people came, their mentality calmed down. Maybe they realized that it was impossible to blow away so many people present.
The Yuan family of Runan and the Yang family of Hongnong also had pale faces when they came in, but when they saw the three old fellows Chen Xun and Sima standing on the palace platform with a group of people, they leaned on the guardrail to observe, and followed with dark faces. These days, what matters is momentum, and it is better to lose the battle than the defeat.
