Chapter 901 The Secret Discussion Between the Monarch and His Ministers
Hearing the old blind man's words, Wu Zhongyuan couldn't help but smile, "As the saying goes, food and sex are the nature of food and sex. Although this person is a heterogeneous person, since he is a man, it is reasonable to like women."
The old blind man laughed awkwardly and did not answer.
After thinking about it, Wu Zhongyuan said to Wang Xinran and others, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest first."
Wang Xinran and others nodded in agreement, stood up, and left.
After the three people left, Wu Zhongyuan asked the old blind man, "Sir, do you feel that the stranger is still in Buguishan?"
"It should be there," the old blind man nodded and said, "The grass, trees, mountains and rocks are different from birds and beasts. Even if they are transformed into humans, they cannot be far away from the original body."
"Is this person's spiritual energy cultivation higher than mine?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.
The old blind man shook his head repeatedly, "No, according to my estimation, this person's cultivation level should be between the three spirits."
"That's easy to say," Wu Zhongyuan said, "Be polite first and then fight. If you don't eat the toast, we'll give it a fine drink."
The old blind man nodded in response and said nothing.
Wu Zhongyuan stood up from his seat, came to the seat next to the old blind man and sat down, and whispered, "Sir, there are only you and me now. Tell me the truth. How do you view the current situation?"
The old blind man seemed to have thought about this problem before, and he did not hesitate when Wu Zhongyuan asked, "Returning to the Holy Spirit, in my humble opinion, the situation of the six realms coexisting has been broken, and now it has become a three-legged confrontation between the human race, the god race, and the beast race. , this situation will not change before the gambling fight in June next year, but after the gambling fight, the balance of the three pillars will be broken, and huge variables will occur. "
"Well," Wu Zhongyuan nodded and said, "What do you think is our chance of winning this battle?"
The old blind man shook his head and said, "It's difficult for me to answer this question, because I don't know what goal we achieve to be considered a victory in the eyes of the Holy One."
"I want to redraw the three realms. The gods go to live in the divine world, and those who are successful in practicing Qi ascend to the divine world. The ghosts go to the ghost world to live, and their souls have a place to go after death. The human race and the beast race live together in the human world, each guarding the world. Duty, long-term peace and stability." Wu Zhongyuan said.
The old blind man tilted his head and said, "The pattern mentioned by the Holy Spirit is based on your profound understanding of the profound texts. Unless you can recreate the universe and create a new world outside the human world, where will the world of gods and ghosts come from?" Coming?"
"That's true.
"Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly.
The old blind man said again, "If the Holy One can understand the profound text on the gold slips within half a year, the spiritual energy cultivation will reach a shocking height. By then, the God King and the Beast King will not be able to compete with you head-on, and the human race will be able to win without a fight. This matter depends on the Holy One." , the chance of winning is 10%, the Holy One knows better than the humble minister."
"Well, you're right." Wu Zhongyuan nodded.
The old blind man said again, "I have no intention of looking down on the Holy One, but the profound text on the gold slips contains the mysteries of heaven and earth, and the universe is easy to understand. Even if the Holy One is a genius, it will not be possible to fully understand it. Therefore, I do not want to underestimate the Holy One." I think we should proceed in two steps. The top priority is to try to win the bet with the gods, so as to buy enough time for the Holy One to calmly comprehend and carefully analyze. .”
The old blind man paused for a moment before continuing, "In the past few years, the Holy Spirit has worked hard day and night. He has been in power in the Wu Dynasty, unified the three tribes, settled the internal affairs and resisted the external affairs, and made great achievements. It can be said that he has traveled a thousand miles a day. It can be said that he is very fast, but it is small. I have never felt at ease in my heart. With all due respect, I say that your steps forward are big and fast. It would be best to be able to accomplish great achievements in one go. However, if something goes wrong, there is also the danger of wasting all your previous efforts. You must know that we are here The opponents we face are different from all the opponents in the past. The gods are far more powerful than the humans. In a bet with them, our chances of winning are not great."
"In your opinion, what should we do next to be safe?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a low voice.
The old blind man said, "In any gambling battle or game, the gains and losses are equal. In my humble opinion, in a gambling battle with the Gods, the stakes should not be set too high. It is best to win, but even if you lose, it will not matter." As for being completely defeated, there is nothing left.”
"I understand what you mean. You don't want me to go all out and decide the outcome in one battle." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Yes," the old blind man nodded and said, "Your Majesty is a hot-blooded young man with great ambitions, but governing a country is different from a martial arts duel. It is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight. There is no need to rush. Your Majesty has now been promoted to Taiyuan and has an immortal golden body. , Time is the most indispensable thing for you. You should consider everything in the long term, and never rush forward. If you don't succeed in one year, it will be ten years, if you don't succeed in ten years, it will be a hundred years. Only by working step by step can you be sure of nothing."
Wu Zhongyuan smiled and said, "Sir, what do you mean, do you not make life-and-death bets with the gods?"
"What Wei Chen said is just my own foolish opinion," the old blind man said. "How to do it should be decided by the Holy Lord Qian Gang."
"I understand your painstaking efforts, sir. You are afraid that if I miss the mark, I will fall into a place of no return," Wu Zhongyuan said earnestly, "But sir, have you ever thought about how we can separate ghosts, demons, and demons?" Exterminated and expelled? Our opponents are all old monsters that have lived for thousands of years. As the saying goes, everything becomes better with age. We have no chance of winning against them in a battle of wits. We can only go in the opposite direction, take the wrong approach, and take things by surprise. , win with force, and I still want to put all my money into the gambling battle with the Gods in the coming year and have a big gamble with them."
Although Wu Zhongyuan did not follow the old blind man's advice, the old blind man was not depressed or disappointed. "Since the holy will has been decided, we might as well bet bigger."
"What do you mean?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.
The old blind man asked instead, "We have half a year. Within this half year, how many masters of the Three Spirits do you think your Majesty can promote?"
"That depends on the outcome of our trip to the Mountain of No Return," Wu Zhongyuan said, changing the subject, "But even if there is no section of the Mountain of No Return, it's not a big problem to try to promote ten people."
"Then let's have nine gambling games with the Gods," the old blind man said. "Although there are nine gambling games, we don't bet on the outcome of a single game. The winner is the winner of five out of nine games. There is only one bet, and the loser will only win in the future. Those who look at the horse’s head are looking forward to it.”
Hearing the old blind man's words, Wu Zhongyuan's heart suddenly trembled. This bet was really too big. Once he lost, he would be completely ruined.
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer, the old blind man continued, "The beasts must not be left out of the bet between humans and gods. If the humans and gods made such a bet, the beasts would not dare to stand idly by. If the humans win, they will order the gods to attack the beasts." Tribe, how do they respond? Or how do they respond when the Protoss calls on the Tribe to send troops to the Orcs?"
"This is a good way to force the orcs to take the initiative to participate," Wu Zhongyuan said, "but the stake you mentioned is really too big. Neither the human race nor the gods can afford it. Once they lose, it will last forever." We are not allowed to stand up, if we lose, I will be the eternal sinner of the human race."
The old blind man thought for a while and said, "Then divide the nine rounds into three rounds. The winner will be the winner of two out of three rounds. The loser must agree to one condition of the winner."
"This is feasible." Wu Zhongyuan nodded. The old blind man meant that one, two, and three games were one round, four, five, and six games were one round, and seven** games were another round.
"If we win all three rounds, the Gods need to do three things for us," the old blind man said. "If we win two and lose one, after the wins and losses are equal, the Gods only need to do one thing for us."
"Okay, that's it. You can think about the specific details." Wu Zhongyuan changed the topic at this point, "By the way, what else does the stranger you mentioned like besides women?"
"He also likes to drink." The old blind man said.
"Do you think this person is soft or hard?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.
The old blind man knew why Wu Zhongyuan asked so, shook his head and said, "If it lies and deceives people under torture, wouldn't we lose more than we gain?"
"You mean you still have to be soft?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned slightly.
"Just like what the Holy One said before, let's be polite first and then fight." said the old blind man.
"What kind of woman does it like?" Wu Zhongyuan felt a little awkward. He didn't object to giving gifts, but he objected to using women as gifts, even if the woman had nothing to do with him.
"Young and beautiful woman," the old blind man said.
"Do you have any other requirements?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
The old blind man knew what Wu Zhongyuan was referring to, so he shook his head and said, "It seems not."
Hearing what the old blind man said, Wu Zhongyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Sir, do you have anything else to do tonight?"
"What is the mission of the Holy One?" the old blind man asked.
"If you don't have anything else to do, let's make preparations and rush to the Mountain of No Return tonight." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"You didn't mean tomorrow..."
Before the old blind man could finish speaking, Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand and interrupted him, "Without further delay, the night is long and there are many dreams. I am worried that you are not the only one who knows about this matter. What if someone else gets there first? Go there earlier and ask earlier. If you get the clue, you will feel at ease sooner."
"That's fine," the old blind man nodded, "but right now we are searching for the remnants of heretics. If there are any clues, wouldn't you be busy?"
Wu Zhongyuan lowered his voice and whispered, "The remnants of the demon clan were surrendered by me earlier, and I had previously encountered a group of pig demons escaping to the west from the southern wilderness. I left a breath of spiritual energy from one of the pig demons. According to Aura sensing shows that the group of pig demons have been moving westward and are now far away from Middle-earth. As for the ghosts in the ghost city, they were almost wiped out in one fell swoop before. Now, even if there are still remnants of heretics lurking in Middle-earth, the number will not be very large. We should go earlier. Rush to the Mountain of No Return.”
Hearing what Wu Zhongyuan said, the old blind man lost his worries, "It's not hard to find good wine, but where can we find that young and beautiful woman?"
Wu Zhongyuan smiled awkwardly and said, "One of us is the Yellow Emperor and the other is the Prime Minister. Naturally, we can't do things like forcing girls into prostitution. Fortunately, there are girls from brothels in the Black Widow's Yinma River. Let's go over and give him a lot of money to see who volunteers to go... "
