Chapter 703 Negotiations: Concessions
It is true that the ascetic head did not consider things in advance.
Because, in his mind, he has long formed a fixed thinking about the Emei sword fight, which is a big event, and it can't be held once without a few decades or even hundreds of years. First, it was too hasty, the lack of preparation, it seemed too unseemly, too influential, and it was the loss of one's own face; second, the time was too frequent, and the Emei sword fight itself was not enough to be called a grand event.
At this time, the ascetic head understood what his problem was. Although I tried my best to clear myself and wanted to think about the problem from an absolutely neutral position, psychologically, unconsciously, I still had the shadow of the Emei faction, so when I thought about the problem, I would unconsciously go towards the bias of the Emei faction in some aspects. Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be some dead ends.
For some people, at this point, they have no power to return to heaven at all, or in other words, they have simply lost their hearts, and can only let things go in a direction other than what they have set. However, the ascetic head is not this kind of person, as a think tank of the Emei faction, he has dealt with countless sudden and thorny problems, and his ability to adapt and make decisions on the spot can be described as first-class. Therefore, while holding the scene calmly, his brain was running at high speed, planning how to take the control of the Tongtian Alliance again, and regain the control into his own hands.
The ascetic head didn't think much about it, and in a short time, he thought about how to respond. "Master Zhong, it's true that you say this, but it's a bit unrealistic.
Sword fighting seems to be a very simple matter, but in fact, it is not that simple. Why don't those small sects and scattered monks discuss on their own and form a Huashan Sword Fight, Taishan Sword Fight, or the like, but instead come to our Emei faction to present their feelings and participate in our Emei Sword Fight?
It's not because our previous two Emei sword fights were carried out by the strength of our big factions, which has formed enough influence and has enough credibility.
Although our Emei faction is very reluctant to admit it, we also have to admit that the influence and credibility of the first two Emei sword fights have a considerable degree because of the sects that participated in the sword fights in the Tongtian League. They have a considerable influence on the disciples of the side sect and the demon path.
I, the Emei faction, can certainly agree to come down and organize this three sword fights by myself, but without the joining of the Tongtian Alliance, I am afraid that most of the opponents of the sects or monks who have expressed their feelings to our Emei faction will not dare to appear. Because, they will definitely be suspicious, and even afraid that our Emei sect will be biased towards the disciples of the Orthodox Church.
Of course, our Emei faction will definitely not do this. However, this is a human nature, and monks are no exception, so,"
Speaking of this, the ascetic head pauses slightly, and then continues, "Therefore, the method of splitting into three sword fights and four sword fights mentioned by the Zhong Alliance Master is fundamentally different.
As early as a few years ago, the Zhong Alliance Master once said that he was willing to set an example for the monks of the world through the sword fight between us, hoping to minimize the impact of this heaven and earth catastrophe on our monks. At this point, everyone in the world knows that the Zhong Alliance Master should not just regard this as a strategy to strengthen his own forces!
If that's all there is to it, it would be a disappointment!"
Zhong Yuan, the master of the Tongtian Alliance, heard the ascetic head Tuo say such a big pass, and he was also extremely impressed in his heart.
His own strategy was indeed a sudden flash of inspiration, not prepared in advance. And judging from the expression of the ascetic head in that moment, he must not have thought about this issue beforehand. However, under such circumstances, he was able to make such a near-perfect strain in such a short period of time, which is really shocking and admirable...,
In particular, when he answered, the transformation of all his expressions and voices was almost perfect, if it weren't for Zhong Yuan's great vision, I was afraid, I really couldn't see his panic at that moment!
For the ascetic head to deal with his sudden attack, Zhong Yuan was not disappointed. Because, from beginning to end, he didn't plan to give up participating in this three-way sword fight.
As the ascetic head said, the reason why the rise of one's own family can win like this has a lot to do with that strategy. However, although it was a strategy, it could not be made to make the monks of the world think that it was a strategy, otherwise, what was waiting for the Tongtian Alliance would be a crusade against the monks of the whole world.
Regardless of whether it is good or evil, because he is playing tricks on the whole world of monks. No one will be able to bear such a situation. Especially, it is in the case that there is such a behemoth as the Emei faction taking the lead, instigating.
However, he didn't intend to give up, and Zhong Yuan wouldn't compromise so easily. Participation is participation, but to participate, you must control some rights and interests, otherwise, your own family jumped off the wreck, but walked into the wreck again. How could Zhong Yuan do such a thing?
At that moment, Zhong Yuan replied, "Ascetic fellows laughed, that is my heart, and it is also the wish of our entire Tongtian League, where will there be any strategy?
"That's great, the Lord of the Zhong Alliance really understands the righteousness!" As soon as Zhong Yuan said this, the ascetic head Tuo pretended to be very happy and interrupted him, clapping his hands.
"Slow, slow!" Zhong Yuan naturally understood what the ascetic head did to do this, but he was not in a hurry, but still waved his hand very calmly, "Ascetic fellow, don't be too anxious. I mean, we can participate in these three sword fights, but there are a few prerequisites for this!"
"What conditions?" said the ascetic head.
The ascetic Toutuo, in fact, also understands in his heart that if he doesn't give the Tongtian League a little benefit, it won't work. He's just doing it to put pressure on him.
"It's very simple!" Zhong Yuan smiled faintly and said, "First, the location of these three sword fights must be decided by us!"
"No!" Zhong Yuan just said the first one, and the ascetic head shook his head and waved his hand, "Absolutely not!" Zhong Alliance Master, just now, I have already said that the reason why monks from all walks of life in the world are so willing to participate in the three sword fights is because of the influence and credibility of the first two times. The previous two times were held in my Emei faction, but now, suddenly I want to change the location, I'm afraid that the monks in the world will not agree.
Moreover, even if the monks of the world agree, my Emei faction will not agree, because this will give people the impression that our Emei faction is not fair enough, which is absolutely impossible. ”
"Ascetic fellow, your worries are a little too much!" Where would Zhong Yuan care about what the ascetic head said, not to mention that what the ascetic head said does not exist at all, even if it exists, it will be more beneficial to him to the Tongtian Alliance, and he will have to insist even more. "You also said that what the monks of the world value is the influence and credibility of our two families, so the key lies in the attitude of our two families. Just one place doesn't matter at all. Now, you have to roil it on the reputation of the Emei faction, which is really a bit outrageous. ”
Speaking of this, Zhong Yuan paused for a moment, and then continued, "Furthermore, taking a step back, even if it really has something to do with the reputation of your Emei faction, it is a good relationship. Think about it, the place where the sword fight is placed on the territory of the mountain gate of one of the parties, so that outsiders can see it, no matter how you look at it, it will not reflect complete justice. After all, on top of your own mountain gate, it is always more dominant, and it is also easy to play with cats. ...,
And once we put the location of the three sword fights in a place where the three are not together, the fairness is self-evident. This is invisibly, and it is also a good publicity for our three sword fights. I can't say, because of this, those colleagues who have some concerns will also come to participate because of this, and push our already grand three-way sword fighting to an even grander level!"
Hearing this, the ascetic head understood Zhong Yuan's core thoughts. It's very simple, it is afraid of the real Liangyi ** dust array on the Ningbi Cliff of Mount Emei.
Although no one has ever seen the power of the real Liangyi ** Dust Array, those who understand its roots will never hesitate to think more about his power. Therefore, in the eyes of those who are a little scheming, when they reach the top of the cliff, life and death are involuntary.
It's life or death, the key is to see whether the Emei faction is open-minded or not.
This time, the people who expanded the three sword fights and built momentum in advance are all vassal forces of the Emei faction, and in front of them, the Emei faction can be completely unreasonable, so it is difficult to convince the hostile forces that the Emei faction will not break out.
Knowing this, the ascetic head understood that this was not something that could be moved by his own words such as restricting death as much as possible. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that he had never thought of using the real Liangyi ** Dust Array to kill everyone, after all, the price was the overall luck of the Emei faction.
Therefore, even if it is changed to a different location, the results of the three sword fights will still not change in any way. Because the real reliance of one's own family lies in the monks themselves.
Thinking of this, the ascetic head tuo immediately made a decision, nodded, pretended to hesitate, and said with great difficulty, "Okay, since the Zhong Alliance Master has already made a move, my Emei faction can't be stingy, this step, we will also let it!"
