Be Passive In The High Martial World

Chapter 108 I Bet He Will Die in Liang Kingdom (2-in-1)

Originally, there weren't that many practitioners staying in Xianyu Temple, and most of the people who stayed and gathered here were ordinary people.

But after last night's eye-catching events such as the siege at the Martial Saint Pavilion, the head sacrifice, and the appearance of the Dragon King, many practitioners came here to see what Dongting Lake looks like today. Then Chen Kuang What kind of people are they?

Either come to join in the fun, or come with a mission to inquire about information.

Therefore, every private room and single-family pavilion in Xianyu Temple is now filled with practitioners with various purposes.

Now, when they hear the movement outside, they all poke their heads out, or simply walk out of the door, hoping to get more detailed information.

When many people saw Chen Kuang ranked fifteenth, their pupils suddenly shrank with different expressions.

The first group of practitioners who gathered were basically locals from Jishao County, Liang State, and were relatively familiar with each other. After a while, they started discussing Chen Kuang's deeds with great interest.

There is a discussion of the causes and consequences of things.

"I heard that this Chen Kuang seems to be a member of the Chen family in South Pier. It was Fan Hailong who did not know what was right and wrong and had his mind set on the Chen family, so he was killed."

"Chen family? Which one?"

"Are you talking nonsense? The Chen family only has one son and one daughter. They have lived in Jishao County for ten years. I have never heard of a son named Chen Kuang. Does it matter if they both have the surname Chen?"

"Yes, it was clearly Martial Saint Pavilion who took action and wanted to unite local forces to hunt down Chen Kuang. In the end, Chen Kuang was angered and was arrested!"

"Let me tell you, Chen Kuang has really done a great thing! The local powerful and powerful families in Jishao County seem to be planning to build a shrine for him! But unfortunately, he probably won't show up... "

"Even if he shows up, is it possible that the Martial Saint Pavilion still dares to take action again?"

"Why don't you dare? Martial Saint Pavilion is not a vegetarian. Do you think they only have two people in the Moon Holding Realm? This Chen Kuang is too courageous. This time he made a mistake. If he had been more cautious this time, he would have escaped. It is really unwise to go outside Jishao County!"

"Look at what the Canglang Commentary said, this time, there were three full moon-embracing realms! Two died and one was injured. Gee, even the Martial Saint Pavilion has suffered a big loss!"

"Chen Kuang's cultivation level is really unfathomable... I remember that some people said before that his actual cultivation level was very low. He only relied on the blessing of Huo Hengxuan's secret technique to kill Li Hongling. Now, it must be No one dares to question it anymore.”

"What kind of secret technique can support a person to kill the Moon Holding Realm twice without exploding to death? I'll cut off the head and stuff it into a bucket!"

The topic changed and turned into a discussion of Chen Kuang's cultivation realm.

"Last time in Canglang Review, I guessed that Chen Kuang was the Sea Opening Realm. I think it was a conservative guess. How can this be without the Moon-Embracing Realm?"

"But didn't he make any changes this time? I guess he did have other means, but they were not so exaggerated."

"Indeed, Shen Xingzhu could also do it in the Sea Opening Realm and kill Baoyue Realm back then."

"Hiss... So, he actually has a bit of the aura that Shen Xingzhu had when he came out of nowhere."

"Do you think it is possible for this Chen Kuang to become the second Shen Xingzhu?"

"Impossible! In this world, one Shen Xingzhu has already made the sun and the moon dim. How can we behave as human beings if there is another one?"

"Chen Kuang is indeed capable, but not to mention that the Martial Saint Pavilion will not let him go. Now that his whereabouts have been exposed, the people of Great Zhou will also take action. Moreover, the Baoyuejing who was killed by him was not an unknown person. generation."

"Those who want to kill him have to line up now... Whether he can get out of Liang Kingdom this time, I think it's all up in the air!"

"However, after killing three moon-holding realms in a row, why is he only ranked fifteenth? I think Chen Kuang deserves to be in the top ten."

"Both battles happened in a hurry, and not many people witnessed it. The intelligence was insufficient, and Canglang Ping was not sure."

"..."

During the discussion, Chen Kuang had mixed praise and criticism, but most of them were pessimistic.

Practitioners know very well how huge the Martial Saint Pavilion is, not to mention that what Chen Kuang killed was the true successor of Martial Saint. No matter how many people they sent out, Chen Kuang would still die here.

But there are also some people who believe that a genius like Chen Kuang must have the ability to turn things around.

It didn't take long for the quarrel to become red-faced and furious. If it hadn't been in Xianyu'an, for fear of offending the owner behind Xianyu'an, a fight would have started now.

——When Chen Kuang dared to attack Fan Hailong's son Fan Chuan blatantly, he relied on Qi Sibai to get to know the owner of Xianyu Temple.

Apparently, even practitioners are very passionate about Bagua.

Seeing this, the cultivator standing above quickly rerolled the scroll in his hand, narrowed his eyes, suddenly laughed, and said loudly:

"Otherwise, seeing as everyone is in high spirits today, why not set up a bet on whether Chen Kuang can leave the Liang Kingdom alive?"

"What do you think?"

The other practitioners looked at each other and nodded immediately. One of the most noisy practitioners took two steps forward: "Okay, how do you bet?"

The cultivator above said: "We will ask the owner of Xianyu Temple to do a notarization. Everyone will use random items on hand as chips, estimate the value and place bets, and you will be responsible for winning or losing."

Everyone happened to be in the mood, and immediately took out the valuable objects in their hands.

A few of them with higher cultivation levels even brought out a few magical Spiritual Treasures with not very good quality and functions, making the atmosphere even more heated.

And because the owner of Xianyu Temple is the notary, they don't have to worry about anyone getting in the way and taking things and running away.

Anyway, they will stay in Jishao County for a while, at least until the outcome of this bet comes out.

Amidst the noise.

As the protagonist who has been mentioned most times, Chen Kuang has already bid farewell to Lin Zhouren and left Xianyu Temple quietly.

At least these people are right about one thing.

His whereabouts have been exposed.

Even if Martial Saint Pavilion does not take action in a short period of time, Ji Chengtian will definitely lose his temper.

Especially the defeat of the Beiyuan defense line may not make Ji Chengtian stop, but will make him more impatient...

Chen Kuang must leave immediately.

Wuhuadui could only hide his appearance in person, but he could not hide the calculation of the Qiankun Spell. It was because his senior brother sent him directly to Dongting Lake that his whereabouts were not exposed.

Now that the orientation has been roughly determined, Chen Kuang and his party will soon be able to calculate their specific location.

Therefore, the sooner you start, the better.

I just don’t know if senior brother can still block a disaster for him this time...

…

Shortly after Chen Kuang left, the gambling game quickly ended.

The practitioner above was still shouting, telling the remaining people to hurry up and place their bets. He was about to close his stall.

But the rest of the people were very hesitant and entangled. After all, Chen Kuang's record looked really scary, but none of his enemies were good at it.

"Hey, what are you guys hesitating about? It's just for fun. It's not a shame if you press the wrong one."

The practitioner above sighed, and then whispered: "But, in my opinion, this Chen Kuang is not simple, and the probability of escaping alive is higher."

"That might not be the case."

A gentle, mellow, and somewhat elegant voice suddenly sounded out of thin air.

The remaining practitioners were stunned and turned to look in the direction of the sound.

The owner of the voice was a middle-aged man. He was wearing a long Confucian robe, his hair was tied up with a square scarf, and a wooden hairpin was inserted neatly. The corners of his eyes were drooped, and the corners of his mouth were pursed tightly. He looked a bit mean, as if he was about to blurt out something at any time. The person he was talking about was just average, he seemed to be a rotten Confucian scholar.

He seemed to have been standing there for a long time, but no one noticed anything strange before.

The middle-aged man slowly walked forward and placed a peach blossom on the right side.

It's late autumn now, and peach blossoms are blooming everywhere.

But the peach blossom in his hand bloomed extremely well, was big and beautiful, and made people happy to see it.

It looks like it was just picked from spring.

The few cultivators looked at each other in confusion, feeling that this person's cultivation should be good, but none of them knew who this person was.

But if Chen Kuang hadn't left at this moment, he would be able to identify who this person is immediately!

It was his acquaintance in the illusion - Senior Brother of Freedom Mountain, Zhang Zhizhou!

The practitioner above asked hesitantly: "Does this Fellow Daoist... also want to place a bet?"

"nature."

Zhang Zhizhou smiled slightly and tapped the paper he spread in front of him.

The left side is life, the right side is death.

The peach blossom was placed on the left side by him.

"I bet he will die in Liang Kingdom."

He shook his head: "Chen Kuang can't escape from Liang State, or in other words, he can't escape from Liang State alive."

The practitioner was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips, picked up the peach blossom angrily and said, "As I just said, you have to bet with something valuable, so you just take a peach blossom, how do you value it? !”

Zhang Zhizhou was not angry, he spread his hands and said with a smile: "Then you can pay me back, but the bet still has to count."

The practitioner threw the peach blossom directly back into Zhang Zhizhou's hand, waited for the others to finish placing their bets, rolled the thing up, and disappeared in a flash.

Zhang Zhizhou stood there and suddenly heard someone shouting in surprise from behind:

"Senior brother?! Why are you here?!"

Zhang Zhizhou turned around and saw Lin Eryou's figure standing in front of an attic.

Zhang Zhizhou immediately laughed and saluted: "Junior Brother Zishu, long time no see."

Lin Eryou came up to him, returned the salute, and looked at the peach blossoms in his hand with confusion: "Senior brother, why are you holding the scapegoat?"

Zhang Zhizhou let out a sigh and said regretfully: "I encountered something interesting and wanted to help people avoid a fatal disaster, but I didn't expect that the other party would not appreciate it."

With a shake of his hand, the peach blossom disappeared from his hand.

Zhou Yanwei looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with some curiosity: "Is this your senior brother Zishu?"

Zhang Zhizhou glanced at Zhou Yanwei, nodded and said: "With a pure heart, junior brother has really made a good choice."

Zhou Yanwei was shocked.

This man actually knew the reason why Lin Eryou chose him with just one look.

This Senior Brother of Freedom Mountain is indeed not simple... he is definitely not a so-called lunatic!

Lin Eryou said: "If it's not good, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the Master's personal comment?"

Zhang Zhizhou laughed and said: "Of course, Master's taste is definitely not bad."

He said proudly and mysteriously: "But this time, Junior Brother's choice will definitely not be as good as mine!"

Lin Eryou said helplessly: "What is it this time? Chickens and toads can't do it. Could it be that Senior Brother, you are looking for... Well, it can't be an oil thief, right?"

He tried his best to guess in outrageous directions, otherwise he really couldn't imagine that with this senior brother's weirdness, he could find any creatures that were better than chickens and toads.

This so-called "oil thief" is actually a cockroach...

Zhang Zhizhou shook his head seriously: "Of course it's impossible! Is your senior brother and I such a casual person?!"

You are!

Lin Eryou cursed in his heart.

He was a little confused again: "I heard earlier that my senior brother went to the Liang Kingdom to serve as an official. How did he do? Now that the Liang Kingdom has been destroyed, has my senior brother escaped? Did he find the candidate on the way?"

Zhang Zhizhou scratched the back of his head, and the middle-aged man said with a bitter face:

"Don't mention it. I was doing well in Liang State and I could find the person I wanted right away. But I was killed by a reckless man halfway."

He felt sad: "If it weren't for my scapegoat, Divine Ability, I would have almost died in the imperial city!"

Lin Eryou twitched the corner of his mouth: "What kind of reckless man can be so capable?"

Because of the substitute wood, his senior brother had countless mahogany substitutes. No one except the master should know his true cultivation level, but Lin Eryou couldn't see through him anyway.

At this moment, Zhang Zhizhou's expression and tone did not seem to be fake, indicating that that person was probably beyond Zhang Zhizhou's expectations.

Lin Eryou sighed in his heart, in these troubled times, heroes are indeed emerging in large numbers, and astonishing strong men suddenly appear everywhere.

Chen Kuang is not the only one...

Zhang Zhizhou said: "You also know this person, his surname is Chen Mingkuang."

Lin Eryou: "..."

Good guy, it turns out that this guy is the one who has been going round and round!

How many people had he offended while fighting all the way? !

Lin Eryou and Zhou Yanwei looked at each other, their faces twitching. Lin Eryou said: "Why, how did this person get into enmity with his senior brother?"

Zhang Zhizhou shook his head and said: "It's not that I have any grudges. It should be considered my fault."

"Sigh...it's a long story."

Although he said this, he immediately fell silent and seemed unwilling to talk about this past incident.

Lin Eryou always felt that this senior brother who entered the Liang Kingdom so early might have something to do with the destruction of the Liang Kingdom, so he tentatively said:

"Speaking of which, why did Senior Brother think of becoming an official in the Liang Kingdom? Almost everyone knows that the officialdom of the Liang Kingdom is corrupt. It's not like Senior Brother is here to make money."

Zhang Zhizhou was stunned and said, "Didn't I say that?"

He narrowed his eyes and said, "I suddenly wanted to go to Liang Country because I had a dream that day."

The middle-aged man said in a leisurely tone: "I dreamed - there was a head that said, destiny is on the beam."

"There will be a person who leaves the imperial city with destiny."

…

In the hall of Chen Mansion.

Everyone in the Chen family gathered together again, and this time, Chen Kuang was also there.

In addition, there is Pei Xiu, a Class B member of the local official, who is standing behind Chen Kuang with his head bowed.

Currently in Jishao County, all local officials obey Pei Xiu's orders.

Chen Kuang looked at Chen An and said: "From today on, Pei Xiu will assist you to help you gain a foothold in the Cao Gang and become the next leader of the Cao Gang."
