As soon as the one-eyed catcher said this, there was an uproar outside the court, and the young scholar was also shocked. He did not expect that just because he said a few words that did not suit the opponent's intention, the one-eyed catcher would deduct three years from his punishment in public. Yangshou, this is Yangshou, not silver. Once it is reduced, I am afraid it will never be replenished.
While shocked and horrified, the young scholar was nervously thinking about whether to leave the Immortal Palace, admit his mistake in public and beg for mercy, or make a desperate move and argue with reason.
However, it is not easy to make a choice. I am unwilling to leave him just now. I beg for mercy in public and lose my face. If I argue with reason, I will probably be punished more severely.
After urgent thinking, the young scholar finally decided to fight back. He suddenly turned around and said loudly, "Just because I said a few words that did not suit your liking, you are punishing me by shortening my life span. You are really narrow-minded and seeking revenge for the public and private."
Seeing the young scholar's stern rebuttal, Da Tou said in a low voice, "This guy is quite courageous. He dares to scold the gods for being narrow-minded."
"He's not brave, he just can't afford to lose and wants to make a comeback," Changsheng said casually, "He has the same mentality as a gambler who loses."
"That's right, the main reason is that he still doesn't want to give up his three years of longevity," Datou nodded and asked, "My lord, do you think he can make back his capital?"
Changsheng shook his head and said, "No, he will lose everything."
"Why?" Datou asked.
Changsheng said, "He wanted to make things bigger by raising an issue in public, so that the Xianjia would respect their identity in public and not be in general contact with them, but he ignored the most important point, which is that the Xianjia simply doesn't care how mortals view and evaluate themselves. , because mortals simply don’t know what the Xian family is thinking, nor can they understand what the Xian family does.”
While the two were chatting in a low voice, the one-eyed catcher had been looking at the young scholar coldly. Datou had previously obtained two magic talismans and was in a good mood. Before the one-eyed catcher could speak, he spoke up and reminded him kindly, "Brother, don't wait." I said, let’s go quickly.”
Seeing that it was Datou who spoke up, the young scholar did not appreciate it, "You are standing and talking without pain in your back. As soon as you got the protective talisman, you started to flatter and flatter me."
Datou didn't expect that his kind reminder would lead to malicious speculation, and he immediately became angry, "Okay, okay, don't leave. Just mess around with the god and delay his time. Let's see what happens."
"I won't accept my life span even if I am punished by him today." The young scholar was in a state of confusion and shouted angrily.
Datou didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, so he didn't answer any more words.
Changsheng knew what was waiting for the young scholar, so he felt compassion. After all, even if the young scholar made mistakes, his mistakes would not lead to death. If he waited until the one-eyed catcher spoke, he would be severely punished. Thinking of this, he casually asked , "What are you dissatisfied with?"
"What did I do wrong? Why should he punish me by shortening my life span?" the young scholar asked loudly.
"The Immortal Family has made it very clear just now. You said something you shouldn't have said," Changsheng said, "What do you mean by a monster? Who are you scolding? If you don't understand what Gongsun Chengwei is doing, just leave. Why do you think you are so self-righteous and sarcastic? You are acting wantonly. Being willful means being willful. You can be willful at home, but you have to pay the price for being willful outside."
Seeing that Chang Sheng did not speak to him, the young scholar immediately glared at him, "You are all the lackeys of the imperial court, working together in collusion, of course you will protect him."
"I didn't protect him," Changsheng said casually. "In fact, this person has a grudge against me. I hate him very much. I also despise his unscrupulous ways to achieve his goals, but I will not try to correct him, because he is originally He is just a bad person. It is normal for bad people to do bad things. Why should you be surprised? What should you be angry about? "
The young scholar could not refute Chang Sheng's words. Chang Sheng also knew that speaking on such occasions could easily be slandered as grandstanding and trying to show off, but he did not dare to let the one-eyed catcher take over the conversation, because the one-eyed catcher was still not angry at the moment. Yes, once he speaks, the young scholar will not be able to escape a heavy punishment. Now there is only one way to save the young scholar, and that is to say what the one-eyed catcher wants to say. Only in this way can the one-eyed catcher be able to calm down the anger.
"If you don't like Gongsun Chengwei, you can go on stage and kill him," Changsheng said. "You don't dare to go on stage to challenge, but you have to put on a unique and noble face and leave midway. If you leave the stage, you will leave. You feel comfortable because you have to say some sarcastic words, but what you said is untrue and makes people feel unhappy. If I explain it to you, I can’t explain it clearly for a while, which is an unnecessary waste of people’s precious time. . If you don’t explain, you will mislead everyone and harm the dignity of the Immortal family. Do you think you are hateful?"
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Changsheng said again, "It is said that the final conclusion is final. Before the competition was over, you started talking nonsense and slandering the Xian family. You underestimated the Xian family too much. Don't forget that even Gongsun Chengwei If he wins the competition, whether to grant him a protective talisman is still up to the immortal family. How do you know that the immortal family will definitely give him a protective talisman in the end? He is really young, ignorant, hot-blooded and reckless. Listen to my advice and quickly ask the immortal I kowtow to admit my mistake and pray for the immortal family’s forgiveness and understanding.”
The young scholar was not destined to die, but he still had reason. He realized that Chang Sheng was indirectly helping him, and felt that what Chang Sheng said was indeed reasonable, so he ignored his dignity and fell to his knees with a plop. He rushed to the one-eyed head catcher on the stage one after another. Kowtow, apologize and admit your mistake.
What Chang Sheng said before was exactly what the One-Eyed Catcher was thinking. If he had said it himself, he would not have to hold back the anger in his heart. Now Chang Sheng has said what he wanted to say, clearing up the misunderstanding in public and setting the record straight. The One-Eyed Catcher is filled with anger. Greatly reduced, the young scholar knelt down and begged for mercy. He was sincere and pitiful, so he didn't bother to show his common sense and waved his hand casually, "Recognizing mistakes can greatly improve things. Take a seat and we won't do it again."
Hearing the words of the one-eyed head catcher, everyone outside the venue was shocked and in an uproar again. They did not expect that the one-eyed head catcher not only did not increase the punishment of the young scholar, but also reduced the previous punishment. However, after this incident, they learned about the immortal family. It also gradually became clear that the majesty of the Xian family must not be slandered and provoked, but as long as the attitude is corrected and mistakes can be corrected, the Xian family is also generous and tolerant.
The young scholar narrowly escaped death and kowtowed to the one-eyed catcher to thank him. Then he took a detour to Changsheng and bowed to Changsheng repeatedly.
Changsheng smiled at him, then pointed to his previous position and motioned for him to go back and sit down.
The one-eyed catcher admired Chang Sheng's knowledge and nodded slowly to show friendship.
Since the black bear spirit had given his protective talisman to Da Tou before without permission, everyone outside the venue was worried that this would happen again. Fortunately, the one-eyed Tou Tou just nodded to Changsheng and did not leave the Tai Chi Stone Platform and the Immortality speaks.
The dust has settled and the competition continues...
