The story is divided into two parts. We will see what Shuanghehe and Linghuxiang did in the toilet later. Let’s talk about Xiao Zhun’s side first.
Zhuang Xiao has been planning today's plan for a long time, so he already knows the timetable of the action.
At Chen time in the morning, the village is opened to welcome guests.
At noon, the villa is closed.
At three quarters in the afternoon, there was a sword discussion in the school. During this period, based on the performance of the guests during the sword discussion, at least forty-nine swordsmen with high sword skills or potential were personally identified as the targets of the "sword sacrifice".
At the end of the day, if everything goes well, Xiao Zhun should have completed the "selection of people" by this time, which means that the time is ripe to take action...
Then, he will The swordsmen he had "favored" were invited to the stage one by one and came to the middle of the school field.
When these people are in place, Xiao Zhun will give an order: on the one hand, let True Lord Fire Lotus perform a method to suppress some enemies in a specific area; on the other hand, let the guards guard around the school grounds About 150 guests of Wujian Villa launched the "Ten Thousand Swords Return Formation" and massacred the hundreds of guests.
Some people may ask after seeing this, can one win if 150 people fight 800 people?
Let me put it this way...the odds of winning are not only good, but also very high.
Think about it, who are the one hundred and fifty swordsmen at Wujian Villa? Those are all "elites" who have been personally coached by Xiao Zhun. If you pick one of them at random, they will have second-rate or above strength. Moreover, they also have the blessing of "formation" to integrate the combat power of many people into a whole. , the power is doubled.
And what about the more than 800 "swordsmen" who have come to discuss swords? More than half of them are bastards who have never touched a sword half a month ago. Among the remaining half, there are also miscellaneous fish groups like the "Huizhou Five Righteousness" and the "Longkou Sword Sect" - a ragtag group of people, a mess, and a face. For an organized surprise attack, a quarter of them would die before they even reacted.
Of course, nothing is absolute... Before the real battle breaks out, no one can be sure that those visitors will be defeated.
What if those people withstood the offensive and killed the disciples of Wujian Villa?
In this case, our "exhaustive strategy" owner Xiao is naturally included in the calculation, and his answer is: not important.
Whoever wins among these people can win in the end, as long as their fighting buys time for him to kill the forty-nine "sacrifice".
With the "Blood Sword Fetus" in hand and the help of Lord Fire Lotus, Xiao Zhun is fully confident that he can kill the forty people in the school before the hundreds of people can decide the winner. After nine people are done, when the "Blood Sword" appears and the "Sword Demon" becomes available, who else in the world can be his opponent? He was no longer afraid if everyone present came together.
But... plans are plans, and accidents are accidents.
It would be abnormal for such a big plan to not have some accidents, and currently there are three accidents that are unfavorable to Xiao Zhun and that concern him -
One , heard the appearance of Yuzhai.
Five years ago, when Xiao Zhun had a falling out with his son because of "something", he had dealt with this young man from the thatched cottage; although Mr. Wen was on Xiao Zhun's side that time, But Xiao Zhun did not regard him as a friend. On the contrary, Xiao Zhun strongly felt that this was a "dangerous" person and a person who could pose a threat to him... Therefore, this time he launched such a big conspiracy. At that moment, Wen Yuzhai suddenly appeared, accompanied by a master like Haicang Feng, which naturally made Xiao Zhun fearful.
Second, Xiao Xuan’s return.
This is easy to understand: Although Xiao Xuan unilaterally gave up his identity as the young master of Wujian Villa, changed his name and surname, and surrendered, but from Xiao Zhun's perspective, a son is a son, and the right way is Tiger poison does not eat its own children, so no matter how much Xiao Zhun despises the lives of others, he will not take action against his biological son; and what worries Xiao Zhun even more is that Xiao Xuan had a falling out not only with himself, but also with Wen Yuzhai , but now these two people are traveling together and come to the village together. What is the reason behind this? Could it be that they came together to ruin my big event?
Third, Dugu Yong.
Xiao Zhun has always heard about the young master of the Jinling Sword King's Palace. There are also people in his Wujian Villa who have seen or learned Duguyong's sword skills. However... Xiao Zhun himself is Never seen it.
In terms of talent and background, if Duguyong were ten years younger, he would probably be often compared with Xiao Xuan back then. If Duguyong was ten years older, 80% of his achievements would be It was taken out and compared with Xiao Zhun himself.
The swordsman's intuition told Xiao Zhun that this person was a rare opponent, but... he was not suitable to appear here and now.
Because he is too strong, so strong that it is possible to destroy Xiao Zhun's plan.
Xiao Zhun really did not expect that someone of Dugu Yong's level would come to participate in such a conference under the guise of "recruiting disciples."
Logically speaking, if Dugu Yong really comes, he should be "invited" in the same way as Song Wudi, Wang Shilian, Jiang Shouzheng, and Di Bujue... in the way of "special invitation" Yes, who would have thought that he would actually come here with a sword and talk to himself like that gang of gangsters, and he was not afraid of being pointed out.
Fortunately...this "accident" was not only bad but also good.
For Xiao Zhun, the "good" surprise was that Song Wudi let him go and didn't come.
What is going on?
It’s nothing. It’s just that after receiving Xiao Zhun’s letter, Master Song Zhuang felt that it was a bit inconsistent for him, a knife player, to be a witness in this "sword discussion" conference, and he and he Xiao Zhun has never had any friendship and has never had the intention to make friends. There is no need to go all the way to sell this favor.
Therefore, after Song Wudi thought for a while, he wrote a reply to Xiao Zhun. In the letter, he said a few polite words to the other party and said something like "I have been caught in the cold recently and the affairs in the village are busy." In such a situation, I declined the matter.
In addition, the owner of Song Village has also been careful.I deliberately delayed sending this reply until there were five days left before the sword debate. In this way...according to the speed at which the Feige Gang delivers letters, when the letter arrives, there will only be one or two days left before the sword debate.
Considering that Shengdao Villa is in Liaodong and Wujian Villa is in Lingnan, even if Villa Master Xiao immediately writes a letter to invite them a second time, Villa Master Song will not be able to arrive in time.
This... is called Lao Jianghu, who does things without leakage.
What? What would you do if Xiao Zhun asked Song Wudi why he took so many days to reply? It's very simple... Didn't I say it in the letter, because I'm sick and busy with work - your excuse can also be used as an excuse for my slow reply. What else do I have to ask?
Besides, Xiao Zhun is not an idiot. When he sees replies like "I went to take a bath" and "I went to sleep", he will send another one: "Did you really go?" Has such news passed?
To put it simply, Xiao Zhun was a little unhappy when Master Song let the pigeon fly, but due to the appearance of Dugu Yong, it became a good thing again.
Because the "means" Xiao Zhun originally planned to use on Song, Wang, and Di (Jiang Shouzheng was too weak to be regarded as a person by Xiao Zhun), now because there is a vacancy, it can be used Dugu is always on top.
However... this time, Xiao Zhun was wishful thinking again.
On the morning of the sword discussion, most of the swordsmen entered the villa at chen o'clock. These hundreds of people were arranged in several small buildings in the villa before three quarters of noon. The above Good refreshments, wine and food were served. After all, they might have to play on the school field soon, so they couldn't be too hungry.
The three of them, Wang Shilian, Di Bujue, and Jiang Shouzheng, as well as the Wudang disciples, Caobang disciples, and followers they brought with them... all arrived a day or two in advance, because they They are "invited" distinguished guests, so they don't need to wait until the day of the sword discussion to enter the village. Instead, they check in to the village in advance. While waiting for the sword discussion, there is a "specially arranged place for them" by the stage.
According to Xiao Zhun’s original intention, as soon as Duguyong came today, he would personally contact him, treat him with great courtesy, persuade him with clever words, and invite him to the room originally given to Song Wudi. Get in that position.
Unexpectedly, Duguyong did not show up all morning, and did not show up until a short time before closing.
When Xiao Zhun received the news that Dugu Yong had entered the village, there was not much time left before the sword discussion conference started. The three distinguished guests had already taken their seats and crowds had gathered around the school grounds. Xiao Zhun did not. At that time, I tried to persuade Dugu Yong, but I had no choice but to give up.
In a blink of an eye, three quarters to noon has arrived.
Xiao Zhun set foot on the school field on time.
This school grounds is surrounded by mountains and covers a vast area.
For today’s sword debate, a wooden platform slightly higher than the ground was set up on the north side of the school grounds. There were three large tiger-skin chairs on the platform. Wang, Di and Jiang were the three sword debaters. The "witnesses" sat on the stage, and the disciples they brought stood around the stage.
SchoolThe east, west and south sides of the field are all slightly higher than the school field, just like the stands. At this time, these three sides are also surrounded by heroes, and the crowd is staring at the center of the school field.
"Heroes, Xiao Zhun, please be polite here." A master of Xiao Zhun's level can easily be heard by everyone present as long as he speaks with a little inner strength.
When the surrounding guests saw Master Xiao greeting them, they responded one after another, saying replies such as "I have met Master Xiao."
Anyway, this is the way it is... Remember, the more miscellaneous you are, the more you like to push forward, and the louder your voice.
Those who are really capable are still very calm at this time, just watching silently, because they all know that just "rushing in front to leave more impression on Xiao Zhun when saying hello" will ultimately affect the outcome. The result is of no help... If you want to win in this sword debate, you can either rely on the "sword skills" in your hands or the "sword theory" in your heart. Everything else is useless.
Of course, they don't know at this moment that it is all in vain, because Xiao Zhun has no intention of recruiting any closed disciples.
"Thanks to all of you, I would like to come to Wujian Villa to discuss sword skills and learn from each other..." Xiao Zhun waited for everyone's voices to become softer before continuing, "Today, Xiao has the honor to invite you When the Wudang Clan’s Master Wang, the ‘Dazhong Zhizheng’ Jiang Daxia, and the Cao Gang’s Gang Leader Di came to witness this sword discussion conference, it was also an honor for our villa..."
< p>Xiao Zhun still had to say something about scenes like this. Even if he later planned to kill 90% of the people present, he still had to make his words sound and perform his tricks right now.As the saying goes, a journey of a hundred miles and half a mile... The more the plan is about to be completed, the more attention must be paid to the details, and must not be careless. If he is anxious at this time, he will do many things that will make people sad. If you seem to behave abnormally, you may lose everything.
But...
"Stop being verbose and tell me how to discuss the law. I'm tired of waiting."
On the school field, Xiao Zhun Before he finished his "opening speech", one person in the crowd also used his inner strength to make a complaint that could be heard by the whole audience.
Can ordinary people do this?
You have to be a guy like Duguyong who doesn’t know how to do it.
There are many types of people who deserve sex in this world, some are because they are mean, some are because they are reckless, and some are...harmful, I can’t go on and on, they are traitors, lazy, greedy, slippery, bad... There are many kinds.
As for Dugu Yong, it was probably because of the word "crazy".
You can say that he only pursues the art of swordsmanship, so he does not value worldly etiquette, lacks empathy, and has low emotional intelligence.
But if a person can always have such a low emotional intelligence and still live well in the world... he must rely on strength.
Besides, he just has a low EQ, not a low IQ. He knows very well why he can be like this all the time.""Being yourself" relies on strength, and he still chooses to stay like this, which shows that he is still a "mad" character in his heart.
At this moment, among the people present, perhaps 80% of them are Du and Like Dugu Yong, he wanted Xiao Zhun to stop talking and get to the point quickly, but who was as "crazy" as him and dared to say this directly?
"Ha..." After a breath, Xiao Zhun smiled in the school grounds.
This was not a sneer, but happiness from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, the swordsman's blood made him eager to move and made him extremely excited. .
So, he smiled.
At this moment, Xiao Zhun, who had always been careful, suddenly had an idea and thought of a way to deal with Dugu Yong at the beginning of the sword discussion. "Unexpected" method.
So, he laughed.
Although Xiao Zhun did not expect that Dugu Yong would be so crazy and dare to hit him unceremoniously on such an occasion. Judging himself, but since the other party has already behaved like this, Xiao Zhun can take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation...
"If I read it correctly...the friend who spoke is... Young Master Dugu from Jinling Sword Prince's Mansion, right? "Of course Xiao Zhun got it right. He has been staring at others for a long time.
"That's me. "Duguyong also replied without thinking.
"Okay. "Xiao Zhun nodded and continued in a deep voice, "'The Defeating Dragon Sword' is famous all over the world, and Xiao has always heard of it..."
When he said this, all the heroes present had already turned their heads. Looking at Dugu Yong, the people standing next to Dugu Yong also consciously took a few steps away from this prickly head.
"Since Brother Dugu is so anxious..." Xiao Zhun continued in a very casual tone, "Why don't you come up and talk to Xiao now, and after we finish our discussion first, Xiao will continue talking about the sword discussion with everyone. "
"Heh..." Hearing this, Dugu Yong also smiled, and his response was also predictable, "I couldn't ask for more. ”
