Changsheng's answer was also what Ni Chenyi expected, because the protective talisman is equivalent to the golden body of immortality. If people with evil intentions are allowed to get it, they can do whatever they want, and people without the protective talisman don't even have the ability to stop it.
Seeing the helpless look on Chang Sheng's face, Ni Chenyi could only smile bitterly. Ni Zhuo, Datou and others on the side also had similar expressions. To be fair, no one was interested in the amulet, because once they got the amulet, they would immediately become the target of public criticism. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of being missed. From the moment you get the amulet, you need to be wary of other people who have the amulet secretly harming you. This feeling is like a sword hanging over your head. You don’t know when the sword will come. drop down.
But it doesn't work if you don't steal it. If someone else gets it, you can only be beaten passively and be slaughtered by others. Although one can have unlimited lifespan by embracing the body-protecting talisman, the prerequisite is that one is not killed by others. No one would be happy if he tried his best to grab something that might bring him death.
Everyone was already entangled, and Ni Zhuo's words made everyone even more entangled, "As far as I know, the eighteen protective talismans have a subtle resonance with each other, and can know each other's existence and the other's presence. where."
"Haha, it's really a hot potato," Datou smiled bitterly, "I originally thought that after getting the magic talisman, I could escape pursuit by hiding in a deserted place, but if you say so, it's useless to run anywhere. "
"That should be the case," Ni Zhuo nodded, "but the information I have collected is very fragmentary. At the moment, I cannot determine whether the induction between the eighteen talismans is fair or equal, or whether there is a difference between them."
What Ni Zhuo means is that he is not sure whether the copper talisman can sense the existence of higher-level silver and gold talismans, but even if the copper talisman cannot sense the existence of silver and gold talismans, there are other spiritual talismans of the same level. To put it bluntly, No matter what kind of talisman you get, you will always be in danger of being assassinated.
Seeing that everyone did not answer, Ni Zhuo said again, "In my opinion, the reason why the Xian family did this is to concentrate the power and conflicts on these eighteen people, narrow the scope of the fight, and avoid war and poison. Creatures.”
Yang Kai has said his opinion on this matter before, and Ni Chenyi also said that Yang Kai's thoughts are the same as Ni Ni's, so everyone has long known Ni Ni's opinions on this matter, and if you think about it carefully, what Ni Zhuo said is true. Logically speaking, these eighteen people selected by the Immortal are enough to represent everyone in the world. You must know that even the power of the court is only concentrated in the hands of the emperor and the three gongs and nine ministers. Other officials choose sides, and as the ruled Ordinary people are like ants, with no choice.
Ni Zhuo continued, "Since the rules are set by the Immortal Family, there will be no loopholes. The matter has nothing to do with oneself. It is a common problem in the world to be wise and cautious to protect oneself. But once the Kunlun Immortal Palace is opened, no one can stay out of the matter, succumb to others, and do whatever they want. When people are being slaughtered and when they are in a high position, they have to choose the same thing when they have trouble sleeping and eating."
Changsheng Interface said, "As the saying goes, if you accept the benefits, you must suffer the disadvantages. We have never expected to accept the benefits without suffering the disadvantages. But the key to the problem is that we don't want the benefits at all. We are just being pushed to the shelves."
Ni Zhuo smiled and said, "It's not just you who thinks this way, everyone involved in this matter thinks this way. They may not want the magic talisman themselves, but they are afraid that others will be disadvantageous to them if they get it."
"Let me do the math," Datou closed his eyes and pointed, "nine copper talismans can be combined into three silver talismans, and three silver talismans can be combined into one gold talisman. If you calculate it like this, we must grab at least two gold talismans. Only then can you sit back and relax.”
Shi Xuanming glanced at Datou and said, "Thanks to the prince for asking you to take care of the accounts, is this how you do it?"
"What's wrong?" Datou was confused.
Shi Xuanming said, "Don't forget, there are three silver talismans, which can also be combined into one gold talisman, and the nine bronze talismans can also be combined into one gold talisman. If they are all fused, there will be a total of five gold talismans. Let's forget it. Even if you get two golden talismans, you can’t sit back and relax, you have to get at least three golden talismans.”
"Oh, I forgot about those three silver charms." Big head scratched his head.
Ni Zhuo said, "There are many ways to calculate, but no matter how you calculate, you can only be invincible if you win more than half."
"This is not easy." Big Tou frowned, then remembered something and looked at Ni Zhuo eagerly, "Who can participate in the robbery? Can a monk rob?"
"Yes, the Protector of Tubo and an eminent monk from Tianzhu also received protective talismans." Ni Tuo replied.
"Ah?" Datou stared in shock, "Why can outsiders enter the Immortal Palace? Can they speak Chinese? Besides, this is our business, why are they meddling in it?"
Ni Zhuo smiled and said, "The Kunlun Mountains stretch for more than five thousand miles and are surrounded by more than a dozen countries, large and small, and we are not the only one in the Tang Dynasty."
"Do you know where the Immortal Palace is located in Kunlun? When will it open?" Changsheng looked at Ni Tuo.
Ni Zhuo raised his hand and pointed south, "The Immortal Palace is located in the Gonggeer Mountain in the south, more than five hundred miles away. Gonger Mountain is also the highest peak of the Kunlun Mountains. It is a snow-capped mountain that is covered with snow all year round. A few days ago, there was an avalanche on the top of the mountain. , revealing the Kunlun Immortal Palace on the top of the mountain. The specific opening time is still unknown, but according to my estimation, it should be soon."
"Snow mountain?" Changsheng turned to look at Ni Chenyi.
Ni Chenyi knew why Changsheng looked at him, "The seven days of fire mentioned in historical records are not only at the foot of the mountain. After entering the mountain, no one dares to act recklessly and fight."
Ni Zhuo said again, "You don't have to leave in a hurry. There will be a ray of light before the fairy palace opens. It's not too late to set off after seeing the ray of light."
Changsheng nodded slowly and did not answer.
At this moment, a servant's voice came from outside the door again, "Master, the palace sent people to deliver several carts of things, saying they were gifts for you and the prince. The officials who delivered the gifts were still waiting at the door. We didn't let them Come in."
After hearing the servant's report, Ni Zhuo said casually, "Invite them into the living room, I will be there soon."
After the servants left, Ni Tuo stood up from his seat and said, "As long as the strong dragon can suppress the local snake, we will have to do business here in the future. It is not good to make too much trouble. This time they have lost all face, and there is no need for us to push further. I’ll deal with it first.”
Everyone stood up and saw each other off.
As Ni Zhuo walked out, he said to Datou and the others, "Song Cai is still waiting outside. You should go down early and divide the silver coins among the soldiers. The house is already preparing for the dinner. You should go early and come back early. Don't delay. have dinner."
Datou and the others nodded in thanks, Changsheng walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Ni Tuo, "The cavalry always leaves some, how many do you need?"
Ni Zhuo stopped when he heard the sound, pondered for a moment and said, "A thousand grains and fodder is enough to escort us."
"I'll leave you two thousand," Changsheng said.
Ni Zhuo waved his hands repeatedly when he heard this, "Forget it, you think it costs nothing to raise soldiers."
Before Changsheng could say anything more, Ni Zhuo had already left.
Changsheng gave a brief explanation to everyone on his side, ordering them to leave a thousand elites after distributing the silver, and the rest to replenish food, water and fodder before returning to Qingyang overnight.
Da Tou and others should have left, Chang Sheng returned to his seat. At this time, only he and Ni Chenyi were left in the room, and the atmosphere instantly became a little awkward.
"You are so capable. You have gone to Maka Mountain and you don't even come to see me." Ni Chenyi said with a smile.
"I originally wanted to come, but circumstances didn't allow it," Chang Sheng made an excuse. "I bought three sweaty horses in Tingzhou. I'm afraid they'll be robbed if I go back late."
Ni Chenyi naturally knew that Changsheng was making excuses, so he didn't expose them, "Gina has already told me about the bloody BMW you took. Gina is the masked woman you saw in Tingzhou that day. She is my friend from here." Friends who arrived.”
"Well, if she hadn't tipped off the information, I wouldn't have known that the bandits in Maka Mountain were blackmailing you." Changsheng said casually.
"People are humble when they leave their hometown. Last time you wiped out Maka Mountain, and our situation got better," Ni Chenyi said. "Thanks to you arriving in time this time, otherwise I really don't know where things would have gone."
Changsheng didn't answer. He had clear eyes and ears. He heard Ni Zhuo talking to Datou and others in the yard. He just wanted to divide the silver as soon as possible. Song Cai had to rush back to the goods yard to ship disaster relief rice to Datang.
"Hey, you haven't answered me yet. Why didn't you come to see me last time?" Ni Chenyi asked with a smile.
"Didn't I tell you everything..."
"Don't make excuses, tell the truth, do you not want to come, or do you dare not come..."
