Chapter 41: The Player Replacement Scandal
Chapter 41: The Player Replacement Scandal
"I've compiled it, fellow Daoist, please take a look."
Xi Yi handed a flat stone slab to Kunpeng; in the primordial world without paper and pen, this was the only way.
Even so, only a cultured person like Xi Yi could handle it.
"Fellow Daoist, look, at the fifteenth step there is a paper figure, at the forty-second step there is a small hut, at the forty-seventh step there is a dilapidated palace, and at the seventy-third step there is a village inhabited by people..."
Five markers in total.
They consider it the most valuable entity in the eighty-step post-apocalyptic world they are currently exploring.
Each step represents a different time and space. Not counting the nine steps before, these are the only five that Xi Yi could record on the stone tablet that are valuable beyond the nine steps.
It was evening now.
A time when people gather around, sit on the ground, and chat.
Today's harvest consisted of a pile of clothes, nothing else.
Therefore, the eight people were not as excited as they were last night, and were even a little frustrated.
All I can say is that their wisdom... still has a lot of room for improvement.
It's only been a day, and a group of powerful beings have already lost their composure. This doesn't seem like the wisdom of powerful beings at all; it's more like a group of ignorant and inexperienced children.
Kunpeng sometimes feels like he's coaxing children, especially after spending time with them these past few days.
They're a bit more mature than children; at least they don't cry or make a fuss, and that's about it.
As for temperament, patience, wisdom, and so on, they are no different from children.
"Yes, fellow Daoist, you've worked hard."
You also need to keep praising them.
"It's not hard work, it's not hard work, it's what I should do."
Xi Yi waved his hand.
Kunpeng took the stone slab, examined it patiently, and could only say that Xiyi was very meticulous; the slab he made was neat and beautiful.
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, how about we find someone else? I'll take your place."
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Hou couldn't help but speak up.
"Oh?" Kunpeng seemed to be deep in thought. "Tell me your reasons and your plan."
Everyone should be given ample opportunity to perform.
"I've been thinking about this for a long time when I have nothing to do. I personally think that the reason why the strange pattern can't be triggered is because the four of you are too... too safe."
They probably couldn't think of a better way to describe it, so they just said it was too safe.
At least Kunpeng understood what he meant.
"Continue!" Kunpeng gestured.
Seeing that Kunpeng understood, Luo Hou's face was full of smiles: "Fellow Daoist chose Hongjun and Fellow Daoist Xiyi before because their abilities belong to the safe school. But I think it is precisely because they are too safe that the strangeness is affected, which is why you are unable to trigger the strange laws."
"I'm different. I belong to the chaotic faction, naturally carrying an aura of turmoil and chaos. If I were to trigger some strange pattern, I would definitely have a greater chance than you... So let's switch people. At least let Fellow Daoist Xiyi and Hongjun take their places, so that the overall order of this team will be disrupted..."
With his explanation, the other seven understood as well.
Then he began to ponder and realized that Rahu's words made sense.
Hongjun is a lucky baby, that's solid! Xiyi is a good person, that's solid! Yangmei is the same, that's solid!
Fellow Daoist Kunpeng is even more reliable, he's too stable.
If we were to divide them into factions, this would be a completely law-abiding and orderly faction, which would be at odds with the strange and disorderly faction.
It also restrains the eerie, so the eerie is not easily triggered.
Rahu does not belong to the disordered camp, but it is definitely a chaotic and turbulent camp that is close to disorder.
Perhaps such people are more likely to trigger bizarre rules?
"That makes sense. Fellow Daoists, please follow the rules. Yin cannot grow alone, and Yang cannot be born alone. I have a lot of experience with this. It would be best if Fellow Daoist Yangmei came down as well. I'll go."
The Yin-Yang Taoist rarely agreed with Rahu's words.
Because he saw an opportunity; if adding Rahu wasn't enough, then he would have a chance.
Rahu doesn't like guarding the gate, so why would I like it?
"what!"
Yang Mei was stunned; how did this involve her?
"Old Daoist, what are you 'ah'ing about?" Kunwu said, "You're the most suitable to come down here. Fellow Daoist Hongjun is the steering wheel, Fellow Daoist Kunpeng is the helmsman, Fellow Daoist Luohou can take the place of Xiyi, and Fellow Daoist Yinyang can take the place of you. It's perfect."
"Hmm?" Yang Mei unconsciously twisted her brow and stood up. "Kunwu, are you looking down on this old Taoist?"
Yang Mei was a little angry.
It was originally Yin Yang Dao Ren who brought it up, but since Kun Wu was the last to speak and had the worst mouth, we had no choice but to confront him directly.
"Is telling the truth considered contempt?"
Kunwu said, "Who are you trying to scare?"
"You, Kunwu, you truly despise this old Daoist! Very well, today I will certainly have a discussion with you on the Dao, and I won't be proud of myself until I've shaved your face."
"Who's afraid of who?"
This time!
"bump!"
Kunpeng slapped his thigh suddenly.
"Ah!" Qiankun Daoist cried out in pain, "Wrong picture, mine!"
"Uh!" Kunpeng said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
I was wondering why I didn't feel anything or feel any pain; it turns out they took the wrong picture.
"Alright, have you two had enough?"
The embarrassed Kunpeng quickly changed the subject.
The unlucky young master of Qiankun.
Yangmei and Kunwu were both dumbfounded by the performance of Kunpeng and Qiankun Daoren.
"It's just a discussion, why get angry? Luckily, no one else is around. If others had seen this, I wouldn't have been afraid of losing face," Kunpeng scolded, clenching his numb hands tightly.
However, his reprimand was very gentle.
It can only be said that they really encountered trouble, the returns were not good, and there was a big gap between the expected results and reality. They were racking their brains for solutions.
As a result, one unresolved issue arose again, and internal conflicts also arose within the organization.
"That guy is really despicable, his mouth is so foul," Yang Mei said, sticking out his neck.
"Why don't you say you're useless?" Kunwu protested.
"Let's all say less. Fellow Daoist Yangmei, you really are something else. Although the truth can be hurtful... well, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that your abilities are very strong, but they're misplaced... Fellow Daoist Kunwu, you too, even though you like to speak the truth, you should know when to stop!"
"Shut up!"
Kunpeng stopped the hermaphrodite with a single glance.
If he continues to persuade them, the two will truly fight to the death.
His mouth is an absolute weapon of mass destruction.
While watching the commotion, Luo Hou suddenly felt inexplicably happy. He really liked this chaos, even though he had caused it himself.
Is this the correct way to deal with chaos?
It turns out it could have been completely hidden.
I get it now!
"Forget it, forget it, fellow Daoists, let's keep the peace!"
Xi Yi stood between Yang Mei and Kun Wu, shoving one of them with each hand.
That's too indecent, it's bad, it's very bad.
"Interesting, hiss~!" Young Master Qiankun thought to himself, but then he accidentally touched the thigh that Kunpeng had slapped.
The scene was a complete mess.
Although the two calmed down, Yang Mei got excited again.
He wants to step down? Impossible.
If we had talked to him nicely, he would have understood, but with Kunwu's meddling, it's impossible for him to abdicate.
This is the dough of the Great Power; isn't abdicating the throne like throwing away the dough?
"Meeting adjourned!"
Kunpeng waved his hand dejectedly.
He finally understood that this group of guys were good at winning when things were going well, but they were in trouble once they encountered adversity.
Although I had expected it, I didn't expect it to come so soon.
After all, I've only known everyone for a few days, and I managed to get everyone together by fooling them.
It's impossible for such a group to work together as one, especially since everyone has a different personality.
This was bound to happen sooner or later.
It can only be said that misfortunes never come singly, they all came at once.
But looking at it another way, it's also good; the sooner it breaks out, the sooner it can be resolved.
