Tian Xiaoding followed the team led by Erhu Wang and his wife to rescue the fishing team on Linghu Island. The victory was originally determined, but something unexpected happened midway.
The three transformed monsters on the other side suffered heavy losses when they saw them. Moreover, there were two fox kings and his wife pressing them down to beat them. Their lives were at stake. If it went on for a long time, the three of them might be beaten by the two fox kings and his wife. die.
So they jumped over the wall in a hurry, separated one of them, came directly to Xiao Ding, injured Xiao Ding, and took away Ah Li who was beside Xiao Ding.
The three transformed monsters turned around and ran away with Ah Li. The two fox kings originally wanted to chase the three of them. However, the three transformed monsters threatened Ahri, claiming that if the two fox kings and his wife dared to pursue him, they would kill Ahri immediately.
The Second Fox King and his wife threw a rat-proof weapon and stopped.
Before leaving, the three transformed monsters also said that if they wanted to get Ahri back, they would need to ask the Great Fox King to take ten spirit fox pills and go to Shenlong Island to negotiate with their monster king.
Other monsters saw that the three transformed monsters who led the team had escaped. They did not want to fight anymore and wanted to find opportunities to escape. However, their cultivation levels were relatively low. The number of spirit fox soldiers dispatched from Linghu Island this time There are too many. Even if they want to escape, they don't have the ability to escape.
Therefore, in the end, all the remaining monsters were annihilated.
Because Xiao Ding was seriously injured, he did not participate in the subsequent battle. After taking the Huiyuan Pill, he sat cross-legged on the board of the boat and used exercises to heal his injuries.
Until the end of the battle, when the Erhu King and his wife led the team back to Linghu Island, Xiao Ding's internal injuries were still not healed.
After entering the cave at the Linghu Island headquarters, the Second Fox King ashamedly reported what happened to the Big Fox King.
The Great Fox King Hu Zun and his wife were shocked when they learned that Ah Li had been snatched away by a monster. Even though they were highly cultivated, they could not remain calm for a while.
At the same time, after the Great Fox King learned that Xiao Ding was seriously injured, he quickly arranged for his men to send Xiao Ding to a separate cave to rest.
According to Ah Li, the cave where the transformed spirit foxes live has hundreds of large and small caves. After entering from the outer cave, it is like a maze. If you are not familiar with the path, enter After that, it's hard to get out.
Fortunately, the cave that Xiao Ding was sent into was a cave near the outer cave. After walking a short distance inside, he had already arrived.
Next, the Great Fox King and his wife and other fox kings gathered in the outer cave to discuss how to rescue Ah Li. Xiao Ding has no way of knowing.
It took Xiao Ding an entire afternoon to heal his internal injuries.
At dinner time, the Fox King sent his men to bring delicious fish to Xiao Ding. All the spirit foxes on Spirit Fox Island basically eat meat for three meals a day. After all, they are foxes themselves and don't like to eat grains.
When Xiao Ding walked out of the cave and came to the outer cave, he saw the nine fox kings and their wives, still sitting together and discussing how to rescue Ah Li.
It turned out that there were differences in their opinions, so they discussed it for a whole afternoon without a final conclusion.
Xiao Ding listened to their discussion for a while and already knew what each of them thought.
Among them, the Great Fox King Hu Zun, the Four Fox King Hu Shuo, and the Five Fox King Hu Lai advocated mobilizing all the Linghu soldiers on Linghu Island to directly attack Shenlong Island where the Demon King is located, and force the Demon King to hand over Ah Li.
However, Hu Zhou, the Second Fox King, Hu Luan, the Seven Fox King, and Hu Chou, the Nine Fox King, opposed the proposal of the Great Fox King. The three of them believed that once Linghu Island was mobilized, the other party might not be afraid of threats and kill Ah Li directly. , Moreover, if there is no Fox King leading the Spirit Fox soldiers to guard Linghu Island, it will be easy for the monsters to occupy their lair. Therefore, the three of them suggested that if they send troops to attack Shenlong Island, they can only send half of their troops at most, and the nine demon kings must leave half of them to guard their hometowns.
However, Three Fox King Hu Che, Six Fox King Hu Gao, and Eight Fox King Hu Lu felt that it was unreasonable to send troops to attack Shenlong Island. They felt that it would be better to prepare ten spirit fox inner elixirs according to the other party's request, and the big fox king would take them to Shenlong Island to negotiate with the monster king in exchange for Ahri.
However, several other fox kings strongly opposed this opinion. The three of them felt that even if they took ten spirits
When Fox Spirit Pill goes to negotiate with the Demon King, the other party may not agree to let Ah Li go. The other party is just setting a trap and waiting for Linghu Island to fall into the trap.
Moreover, if you bring ten spirit fox inner elixirs, it is equivalent to knocking back the ten spirit foxes who have transformed into humans on your side. Thousands of years of cultivation will be destroyed once, which is the same as killing these ten spirit foxes. Fox, there is not much difference. No one will destroy their own cultivation if this matter is placed on them. It's hard to tell whether this is true or not. The Great Fox King is not willing to ruin the cultivation of ten of his men like this. They all belong to the same ethnic group and are more or less related.
So just like that, the nine Fox King couples were divided into three camps. They each held their own opinions and reasons, and they could never reach a unified opinion.
When Xiao Ding saw that everyone was discussing very intensely, he coughed twice.
When the fox kings heard Xiao Ding's cough, they quickly turned their heads and looked over.
Seeing that it was Xiao Ding, Hu Zun, the Great Fox King, took the lead and said with a smile: "Has your friend Tian's injury been healed? Why did you come out?"
Xiao Ding hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you, Great Fox King, for your concern. My injury is no longer serious."
Hearing this, Hu Zun burst into laughter and said, "Friend Tian, you are so polite. Why do you need to thank me? I should obviously thank you. You were seriously injured just to save my daughter. I feel very guilty. Hahaha!"
Xiao Ding quickly shook his head and said, "I don't dare, I don't dare. I have a low cultivation level and I'm really ashamed that I couldn't protect your beloved. Alas, I'm so useless..." After saying that, he let out a long sigh. .
Hu Zun waved his hand and said cheerfully: "Friend Tian, there is no need to blame yourself. With your Qi-training Dzogchen cultivation, it is very difficult for you to fight against the ninth-level monsters. It is already very difficult for you to save your life. How can I blame you? What's more, At that critical moment, you were fearless in the face of danger and knew how to use an egg to hit a stone, but you risked your life to save my daughter. Naturally, I will take your thoughts to heart. When this matter is over, I will be free and I will reward you generously. "
Xiao Ding felt bitter after hearing this, thinking that he had traveled all the way here to meet his friend Ah Li, but Ah Li was kidnapped by a monster. It's hard to say when he will be able to return to Fengluan Continent or Huaxuan Continent. Now he has completely fallen into the fox's den, and he doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
However, he still said politely: "I am living here, and it was Ahri who saved my life. If Ahri hadn't picked me up from the sea, I might have become the food of a sea fish. Therefore, When I see that monster coming to harm Ahri, I can't just sit back and do nothing. Unfortunately, my cultivation level is too low, alas..."
Seeing that Xiao Ding looked very guilty, the Great Fox King comforted him and said: "Friend Tian, please rest assured, I will naturally find a way to rescue my daughter. No, we fox kings are discussing countermeasures. "
Xiao Ding quickly asked with concern: "I wonder if the fox kings can discuss a specific method to rescue Ah Li?"
Several fox kings shook their heads and sighed: "We have been discussing it all afternoon, but we still have different opinions. I wonder if my friend Tian has any ideas?"
When Xiao Ding saw several fox kings asking for his opinion, he pretended not to know and asked, "So, what are the differences in the countermeasures that the seniors have in mind?"
When several fox kings saw Xiao Ding's inquiry, they did not hide anything and expressed their own opinions. As a result, the three groups began to argue again.
When Xiao Ding saw these fox kings, they all started arguing again. He quickly raised his voice and said, "Seniors, please don't argue first. Let the juniors analyze the situation first."
When several fox kings saw that Xiao Ding wanted to express their opinions, they all stopped arguing, and then humbly said to Xiao Ding: "Friend Tian, we know that you humans always have extraordinary wisdom. Although we have transformed into human beings, we are all very smart." It has been tens of thousands of years, but in terms of wisdom, we are still far behind you humans. Therefore, we are willing to listen to your opinion."
Xiao Ding cupped his hands in front of the fox kings, and then said politely: "Then let me talk about some of my immature personal thoughts. If the seniors think it is right, then think about it. If you think what I said is wrong, It doesn’t make sense, so how about just pretending I didn’t say it?”
Of course, the fox kings had no objections, and they all said in unison: "You can say it, there is no problem. If it is really a good idea that will help rescue Ahri, we will definitely adopt it."
After Xiao Ding got the affirmative answer, he cleared his throat softly, and then said: "We humans have an old saying, which is called "the first is to attack the enemy with the army, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, and the second is to attack the city." There is another saying, which is called "He who subdues the enemy's troops without fighting is a good person." I wonder if any of the seniors have heard of it? "Xiao Ding pretended to ask.
In fact, Xiao Ding knew clearly in his heart that these spirit foxes would definitely never hear these two sentences. Because these two sentences come from the "Attack" chapter of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", the fox on Linghu Island must have never seen anything like the thirteenth chapter of "Sun Tzu's Art of War".
Sure enough, several spirit foxes have lived for so long, and their life spans are even longer than the history of mankind on earth. Where can they go to hear "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu? So they echoed Xiao Ding and said, "We would like to hear our friend Tian explain it in detail."
Seeing that the demon kings were really deceived, Xiao Ding explained unceremoniously: "These two sentences actually come from a book on the art of war. The general meaning is that superior military operations are based on the use of weapons. Strategize to defeat the enemy, the second is to use diplomatic means to surrender the enemy, the third is to directly confront the two armies and defeat the enemy with force, and the lowest strategy is to attack the enemy's city or base area. Without fighting between two armies, you can Achieving strategic goals is the most brilliant war strategy..."
