"Alliance?"

Chu Yang was a little surprised, even King Kong and Fei Gui were a little surprised.

Because Lao Zhu has always insisted on the idea of ​​non-alliance, and is unwilling to let Qimu Village join any alliance camp.

Being aloof from the situation makes it easier for them to take advantage.

But now Lao Zhu actually took the initiative to propose an alliance, which really made Chu Yang, even King Kong and Fei Gui a little confused.

"No, no, no..."

Old Zhu shook his head hurriedly: "I'm not talking about an alliance. We, Qimu Village, don't want to join any faction, nor do we want to form an alliance with your mountain strongholds and get involved in your struggle..."

Chu Yang asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Old Zhu said: "I only plan to sign a contract with you that is similar to an alliance."

"What is the content of the contract?"

"It's very simple. If our Qimu Village is besieged and in danger, or sends you a distress signal, you must go all out to rescue it-unless it is certain to die, there is no need for rescue at all."

"Oh, this condition... This is really a life-and-death alliance..."

"Of course, the same is true in reverse. Our contract is very fair. If you send us a distress signal, we will also rescue you in extremely dangerous situations."

Old Zhu looked indifferent.

Chu Yang was a little surprised that Qimu Village would think so highly of him?

Xiefeng Village is just a small force. Even if Qimu Village is not clear about the situation in the western region, it would not mistake Xiefeng Village for a large mountain stronghold.

With their strength, is it necessary to sign such an agreement with Xiefeng Village that is close to a life-and-death alliance?

This is clearly Xiefeng Village taking advantage.

What exactly did Lao Zhu like about Xiefeng Village? Intelligence capability?

Chu Yang seemed to understand something, and then said calmly: "It's fair. I can agree to this contract on behalf of Xiefeng Village, and help each other with your village, and advance and retreat together..."

"You misunderstood, I don't want to sign this agreement with Xiefeng Village, but with you."

The smile on Lao Zhu's face was very strange.

Chu Yang was stunned: "With me? With a little ghost like me?"

Lao Zhu said calmly: "Yes, the two parties to the contract are us three ghost kings and you. As for Xiefeng Village... We are not familiar with each other, and we don't want to discuss this issue with the ghost king of Xiefeng for the time being."

Chu Yang was happy: "Do you trust me so much?"

Lao Zhu smiled and said: "What do you mean? Your strength? Or your credibility? As long as the contract is signed, of course I can trust you."

Chu Yang was slightly stunned.

As long as the contract is signed, Lao Zhu can trust him?

The meaning behind this sentence does not seem to be that simple.

Normally, there is nothing wrong with this sentence.

Things like contracts or oaths are indeed very binding, especially in the world of cultivation, the consequences of violating an oath are more serious than going to court.

So, as long as both parties can sign a contract, they can naturally reach mutual trust.

But this also depends on the object, and contracts and oaths are not binding on everyone.

High-level ghost cultivators generally attach great importance to oaths.

They know that oaths and contracts involve the problems of Tao heart and inner demons. These problems are enough to cause cultivators to suffer huge backlash and even destroy their souls at a critical moment of promotion.

Therefore, high-level cultivators attach great importance to contracts and promises. When signing contracts and covenants, they will be very cautious and will not make promises casually.

Even if they want to cheat, they can only leave room and space in the content of the contract.

It’s hard to say for low-level cultivators.

Some low-level cultivators do not realize the seriousness of such things, dare to swear at will, and do not care about the serious consequences promised in the oath.

There are even some low-level ghost cultivators who believe that ghosts should be full of lies, and it is natural to lie, swear, and break oaths.

For them, swearing may not even count.

There are also some low-level ghost cultivators who know the seriousness of the oath, and they also know that the consequences of breaking the oath will be very serious.

But they knowingly commit crimes and don't care.

Because the cultivation obstacles such as the heart of the Tao and the heart of the demon are problems that only high-level ghost cultivators have, and it is not certain whether they can cultivate to that level.

Maybe before the oath is fulfilled, these low-level ghost cultivators have been killed like ants.

So, they directly ignored the oath, and didn't care about the serious consequences that the oath might cause, and dared to swear anything.

They can even use the oath to dig a pit, play some tricks of sacrificing themselves and harming everyone.

As long as the price is right, what's the big deal about taking an oath? What's the big deal about being struck by five thunders?

This kind of low-level ghost cultivator gives people the same feeling as those little brats who are not yet of criminal age, and they are extremely dangerous and desperate.

This is why Chu Yang had to find Qimu Village to be a witness.

His identity and strength as a ghost soldier are not enough, and he has no persuasive power. Even if he swears, no one may believe him.

The three ghost kings of Qimu Village are much more important.

…

Understanding the binding force of oaths on different groups, Lao Zhu's words are very interesting.

He can believe the contract signed by Chu Yang because he really thinks Chu Yang is very credible?

Is it because Chu Yang looks like a promising young man, who will never joke about oaths and then ruin his future?

Chu Yang is a little confused.

After pondering for a while, Chu Yang said calmly: "Okay, I can sign this contract with you, but the content of the contract you mentioned is still a bit vague... What do you mean, unless death is inevitable, there is no need for rescue at all? Do we have to? How about risking one's life to save each other?"

Lao Zhu also thought for a while, and then said: "This situation is indeed difficult to define, and it can easily become a loophole in the contract... Let's put it another way. As long as it does not pose a serious life threat to ourselves, we Just try your best to save the other party...what do you think?"

Chu Yang nodded and said: "Within our ability and with a clear conscience, such rescue is still acceptable."

Lao Zhu said with a smile: "Okay, then my first condition is this. Our agreement only stipulates mutual rescue and does not impose other restrictions. The only objects stipulated in the agreement are the three ghost kings and us. you……"

Chu Yang chuckled and said: "In other words, our respective camps or allies are no longer within the scope of the agreement. If there is a war or conflict between our camp and other forces, you will not help?"

"Yes, you should know the position that our Qimuzhai has always adhered to. We do not want to get involved in the war between those camps."

"An alliance?"

Chu Yang was a little surprised, and even King Kong and Fei Gui were a little surprised.

Because Lao Zhu has always insisted on the idea of ​​non-alignment and is unwilling to let Qimuzhai join any alliance camp.

Being aloof from the outside world makes it easier for them to take advantage.

But now Lao Zhu actually proposed an alliance, which really made Chu Yang, even King Kong and Fei Gui a little bit incomprehensible.

"No no no..."

Lao Zhu quickly shook his head: "I'm not talking about an alliance. Our Qimuzhai doesn't want to join any force camp, nor do we want to form an alliance with your copycats and get involved in the struggle between you..."

Chu Yang asked doubtfully: "What do you mean?"

Lao Zhu said: "I only intend to sign a contract with you that is similar to an alliance."

"What is the contract?"

"It's very simple. If our Qimuzhai encounters siege and danger, or sends a distress signal to you, you must go all out to rescue - unless death is inevitable, there is no need for rescue at all."

"Oh, this condition... this is really a life and death alliance..."

"Of course, the opposite is also true. Our contract is fair. If you send us a signal for help, we will also rescue you in extremely dangerous situations."

Lao Zhu looked calm.

Chu Yang was a little surprised that Qimuzhai would think so highly of him?

Xiefeng Village is just a small force. Even if Qimuzhai doesn't know the situation in the western region, it won't mistake Xiefeng Village for a big cottage.

With their strength, is it necessary to sign such a life-and-death alliance agreement with Xie Feng Village?

This clearly shows that Xie Feng Village has the advantage.

What did Lao Zhu like about Xie Feng Village? Intelligence capabilities?

If Chu Yang realized something, he then said calmly: "It's fair. I can agree to this contract on behalf of Xiefeng Village, and we will help each other with Guizhai and advance and retreat together..."

"You misunderstood. I don't want to sign this agreement with Xie Feng Village, but I want to sign this agreement with you."

The smile on Lao Zhu's face was very strange.

Chu Yang couldn't help being stunned: "With me? With this little ghost pawn like me?"

Lao Zhu said calmly: "Yes, the two parties to the contract are us three ghost kings and you. As for Xie Feng Village... we are not familiar with it, and we don't want to discuss this issue with Xie Feng Ghost King yet."

Chu Yang was delighted: "Have you ever believed in me?"

Lao Zhu smiled and said: "Which aspect are you referring to? Your strength? Or your credibility? As long as the contract is signed, of course I can trust you."

Chu Yang was slightly startled.

As long as the contract is signed, can Lao Zhu trust him?

The meaning behind this sentence does not seem to be that simple.

Normally, there is nothing wrong with this sentence.

Things like contracts or oaths are indeed very binding, especially in the spiritual world, and the consequences of breaking an oath are more serious than going to court.

Therefore, as long as both parties can sign a contract, mutual trust can naturally be achieved.

But this also depends on the object. Contracts and oaths are not binding on everyone.

Senior ghost cultivators generally attach great importance to their oaths.

They know that oaths and contracts involve issues of Taoism and inner demons. These issues are enough to cause practitioners to suffer huge backlash at a critical moment of promotion, and even their souls may be destroyed.

Therefore, senior monks attach great importance to contracts and promises. They will be very cautious when signing contracts and covenants and will not make promises casually.

Even if they want to cheat, they can only leave room and space in the contract content.

It's hard to say for low-level monks.

Some low-level monks are not aware of the seriousness of such things, and dare to swear randomly, without caring at all about the serious consequences promised in the oath.

There are even some low-level ghost cultivators who believe that ghosts are supposed to tell lies, and lying, swearing, and breaking oaths is a natural and natural thing.

To them, swearing may not even be a fart.

There are also some low-level ghost cultivators who know the seriousness of the oath and also know that the consequences of breaking the oath will be serious.

But they knew it and didn't care.

Because the obstacles to cultivation such as Dao Heart and Heart Demon are problems that only high-level ghost cultivators have, it is not certain whether they can cultivate to that level.

Maybe before the oath is fulfilled, these low-level ghost cultivators have been killed like ants.

Therefore, they directly ignored the oath, and did not care about the serious consequences that the oath might cause, and dared to make any oath.

They can even use the oath to dig holes, play some tricks of sacrificing the self and harming everyone.

As long as the price is right, what does it matter if you take an oath? What does it matter if you are struck by five thunders?

This kind of low-level ghost cultivator gives people the same feeling as those little brats who have not reached the criminal age, belonging to extremely dangerous desperadoes.

This is also the reason why Chu Yang had to find Qimu Village to come forward as a witness.

His identity and strength as a ghost soldier are not enough, and he has no persuasiveness. Even if he swears, no one may believe it.

The three ghost kings of Qimu Village are much more important.

...

After understanding the binding force of oaths on different groups, Lao Zhu's words become very interesting.

He can believe the contract signed by Chu Yang because he really thinks Chu Yang is very credible?

Is it because Chu Yang looks like a promising young man who would never joke about oaths and ruin his future?

Chu Yang was a little confused.

After a moment of silence, Chu Yang said calmly: "Okay, I can sign this contract with you, but the content of the contract you mentioned is still a little vague... What does it mean that there is no need to rescue unless there is no doubt of death? Do we have to risk our lives to rescue each other?"

Old Zhu also thought about it, and then said: "This situation is indeed a little difficult to define, and it is easy to become a loophole in the contract... Then let's put it another way. As long as it does not cause serious threats to our lives, we will try our best to rescue each other... What do you think?"

Chu Yang nodded and said: "As long as we can do our best and have a clear conscience, such rescue is still acceptable."

Old Zhu smiled and said: "Okay, then my first condition is like this. Our agreement only stipulates mutual rescue, without any other restrictions. The objects stipulated in the agreement are only our three ghost kings and you..."

Chu Yang chuckled and said: "In other words, our respective camps or allies are not within the scope of the agreement. If there is a war or conflict between our camp and other forces, you will not help?"

"Yes, you should know the position that our Qimu Village has always insisted on. We don't want to get involved in the wars of those camps."
