"How many millions? Brother Xia, look at you...how much is your funding gap?" Chen Xiaobo was shocked. Such a high remuneration made him feel like he was getting blood all over his body.
"Not much. Just 70 million." When I heard that Chen Xiaobo had the intention to borrow money, I was quite happy.
"Seventy million?! Brother Tian, how can I have so much money... Don't I still owe you 10 million and I can't even get it together to give it to you now? I'll give it to you with a few million from my dad later." Once I've made up the money, I'll pay you the amount owed, and you can figure out a way with the remaining money. If it doesn't work, you can participate in the preliminaries tomorrow as specified by the organizing committee." Chen Xiaobo's heart beat faster. He could still make up ten to twenty million. Come out, but with such a large amount, he must be helpless.
After hearing what he said, I had no room to borrow money. I gave up the idea of borrowing money from Chen Xiaobo's father. Who could I ask for such a large amount of money? After thinking about it for a long time, I really couldn't think of anyone who would lend me money.
"What are the conditions for the preliminaries? How many games do we have to play?"
Borrowing money is not an option, the only option is to fight.
"There aren't many. You can get in by defeating three casual cultivators. But Brother Xia, there are only two types of people who dare to participate in the competition. One type is stupid and doesn't know how to write the word "death", and the other type is Even you are a top-notch character at the same level." Just ask him if he wants to borrow money. Chen Xiaobo was still willing to answer.
"Okay, it seems that we can only fight. I will go to Nanshi to challenge tomorrow." I said helplessly. In just one day, I couldn't find such a large amount of funds.
If there is 100 million in the capital account, there is no need to fight, and there is no consumption. Now it seems that I can only accept the challenge. The time is seven o'clock tomorrow morning. I feel a little guilty. Who will I meet?
I hung up the phone on Chen Xiaobo and called the remaining three people to tell them about the competition. All three of them expressed deep sympathy, but they really couldn't afford the money. They were even poorer than me, at least. I still have thirty million.
I had no choice but to return to the underworld. Continue to practice.
In the evening, in order to avoid participating in the preliminaries. Unnecessary things happened, so I decided to go to the preliminaries more than ten hours in advance.
On the high road, the night is dark and windy. We drove most of the way and nothing happened.
As a result, during the second half of the journey, a dark figure suddenly appeared in front of me, speeding on the guardrail of the high road.
His speed is ridiculously fast. Although he is not as fast as Sun Chongyang's magical walking, he is still very capable, at least much faster than my legs.
I slowed down silently and followed for a while. I found that although this person was fast, he still needed to stop and run, and he often had to wipe the sweat off his body.
Could it be an ascetic who exercises in the middle of the night? It seems that they are quite destined. Although I have many friends in Dalong County, I don't have any friends outside. Why not make some friends?
"Hey, brother, we are all Xuanmen monks. I admire you very much. You are still practicing on the highway in the middle of the night. How about we get acquainted?" I opened the car window next to me and shouted.
Just when I was thinking about how old the other person was, the man turned around. When I saw it, I almost hit the guardrail with my car!
Damn it, it’s Li Poxiao!
I was so embarrassed that Li Poxiao was running up high in the middle of the night. What was going on?
I turned on the double flashers and drove towards the isolation belt on the highway.
"Xia Yitian!" Li Poxiao frowned, his face a little ugly, but he still looked like a master. He shook the hem of his robe and stood upright on the guardrail.
Half of the sleeves were originally broken, but now the other half has been removed. It doesn't look that bad. The blood stains on the Taoist robe are gone and are now white. It's been a long time since I last saw him. His head has grown a lot and is tied in a bun with a rubber band. , a bit like a Taoist priest.
Seeing that he was so focused on dressing up, he didn't know where he was going.
"Li Poxiao!" I also called his name and instinctively touched the soul urn.
Li Poxiao gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Xia Yitian, you are raising ghosts to cause trouble, and now you are planning to go somewhere to do evil! Although I know that I can't take you down now, I won't let you go easily, maybe in a while time……"
"Okay, Li Poxiao, your situation doesn't look like you are practicing, does it? Where are you going? I'll take you for a ride. If you want to take care of me, why don't you talk about it later?" After summarizing his Dress up, I made a suggestion, he must be out of money, so poor that he can't even afford a ticket, right?
"It is our duty to eliminate demons and protect the Tao. But since you and I have no intersection at the moment, let's say goodbye. When I come back one day, I will definitely take your life." Li Poxiao probably has a grudge against me to a certain extent. Slippery had already known this and had no intention of taking a ride on me.
"Haha, are you a demon or not? Don't tell me, you are still my brother Zhang Yidan. Besides, you and I have no enmity. You came to kill me yourself, and you think you are Demon or not?" In fact, looking at his tanned face, I still thought of my childhood friend Zhang Yidan. He was dead, but his body was still alive in another way.
"Okay, my trip is to Nanshi. If the wind goes smoothly, I will argue with you today and give you a reason so that you can know who is stubborn." Li Poxiao thought about it for a moment and then turned to me Come.
He no longer carries the scabbard on his back. The scabbard is also an antique. Maybe it was pawned for him in exchange for food. I should ask Zhao Qian to look for it in the antique market, maybe I can find it.
"Come on." I sat in the driver's seat, and Li Poxiao followed suit.
After starting the car, Li Poxiao didn't make any movement. I touched Xijun's soul urn with one hand and started driving the car.
"Let me talk about me first, listen to what I have to say, everyone should be honest, and then decide what is right and wrong in the end?" I suggested. Let's fight together.
"Okay." Li Poxiao is also very single.
"I've been plotting against others since I was a child..." I told about my life experience and everything I saw on the road, from what happened in Xiaoyitun to when I met him in Dalong County. Afterwards, he recounted a long experience, and also talked about meeting Master Gan Dao Qiu Cunzhi in the underworld and receiving education.
Of course, there are some hidden things, such as my daughter-in-law and sister, I didn’t say anything about this.
Li Poxiao kept listening and didn't say a word, but from time to time he mentioned dangerous things and raised his eyebrows, seeming to be shocked by my experience.
When it came to the matter of Zhou Xuan and Zhang Yidan, he also became a little moved, as if he was touched.
"I can guarantee that everything I said is not a lie. Everyone is a sensible person. After teaching Master a lesson, I swear that I will not kill innocent people indiscriminately or do evil. He is a famous Yin Yang family. Since If I existed in the world in another way, I would not cause harm to the world. However, Zhou Xuan decided to let me take care of you in the underworld in order for her husband to be buried in peace. I will also do what I say, so be it. , In order to not make things difficult for both of you, and you also slander yourself, you shouldn't occupy the body of a dead person, how about entering the six realms of reincarnation early?" I said quietly.
Li Poxiao was still silent. When he got to the back, he looked at me and said, "My personal experience is different. How can you say that it is wrong for me to borrow a corpse to bring back the soul? When I borrowed his body, he was no longer alive. What happened to him during his lifetime?" , I don’t know either, but I am not taking over his body, but becoming one with his body, and doing things with him to punish evil and promote good. How can you judge that what I do is evil? At most, it is against heaven. That's all, who is a Taoist who doesn't defy heaven? What about you? Besides, Zhou Xuan wants you to arrest me, but how do you know that she wants Zhang Yuanyi to be buried in peace?"
After listening, I felt that what Li Poxiao said seemed to make some sense. He borrowed his body to do good, but not for evil. So how should I judge his fault?
If Zhang Yuanyi and Zhang Yidan still exist in the world, can I conclude that Yidan can punish evil and promote good like Li Poxiao in his lifetime?
Along the way, no one could argue with anyone. He kept his point of view while I talked about the truth and pointed out many facts. However, Li Poxiao came from a well-known family and knew a lot about the goodness of water and the perfection of all things.
When we arrived at Nanshi, neither of them could talk to each other, so they could only enter the toll station silently. Li Poxiao proposed to say goodbye to me here.
I asked him where he was going, but he didn't say anything and left casually.
I was speechless and could only go to the venue agreed by the Maison Organizing Committee.
