Chapter 51 Luck Blessing
"There's wind under my feet!" Zhao Xing controlled the wind magic and made it a boost to his running.

But this spell was not for himself, but for the straw man.

And he controlled the rhythm of the rain so that when the straw man ran under the clouds, the rain would stop along his path.

He deliberately left two subtle differences to mislead Shen Zhui.

Shen Zhui ran to the willow tree and was immediately faced with a choice between two options.

After hesitating for only a second, he chased in the direction of the straw man.

Feeling that Shen Zhui was running in the opposite direction, Zhao Xing showed a smile.

"What? Another straw man?!" Shen Zhui was speechless as he looked at the straw man in front of him.

Looking back now, it was clear that Zhao Xing had deliberately given him these two flaws.

Such a quick reaction in such a short period of time, without any hesitation, cannot be said to be a first reaction, but rather it was planned long ago!
"Hmph!" Shen Zhui didn't say anything to Zhao Xing this time. He directly chopped the straw man in half. Without giving the other party a chance to delay time, he immediately chased in the opposite direction.

Chen Mansion, in the study.

Chen Shijie sensed this scene and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He originally had no intention of paying attention to it, because in his opinion, Shen Zhui was at the seventh level of Ju Yuan, and his body movements were extremely sophisticated, so he would be able to capture Zhao Xing very quickly.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xing made such a bold move and made Shen Zhui run around in circles.

"Good boy, you created such a favorable environment for yourself just by using moving clouds, rain, straw men, and wind?"

"If you don't become a military minister, it would be a waste of talent."

Chen Shijie stopped reading, took a wine gourd, sat by the window, and began to observe the cat-and-mouse game attentively.

In the heavy rain, Shen Zhui looked at the figures running in two directions in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Zhao Xing called back the second straw man he had made to provide cover.

Now he has to make another choice.

One has a wind spell to speed up and the rain stops above his head, while the other has no bonus at all.

"Last time, the straw man blessed the spell, this time it must be the real body that blesses it!"

Shen Zhui chose a direction and chased after him.

After ten breaths.

Shen Zhui looked at the straw man in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little broken.

"This... this is another straw man?"

"He predicted my prediction?"

Shen Zhui felt like a clown, being made fun of once again.

He wasn't even this angry when he was defeated in the sparring room with other warriors.

But facing Zhao Xing, it was really a bit confusing.

Brother Zhao, you have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and you look so sunny, but I didn’t expect that you are so good at lying?
"Hmph!" Shen Zhui snorted coldly, and a white light flashed from the iron ruler, splitting the straw man into pieces.

Shen Zhui calmed down, regrouped, and continued searching.

"He adjusted his mindset quickly. He was fooled three times in a row, but he remained calm to a certain extent. Although he was emotional, his actions were not affected at all. He subconsciously made the best possible remedy."

After Zhao Xing lost contact with the third straw man, he also glanced at Shen Zhuigao.

Because the other party handled it very well.

As for the wrong choice?

That can't be blamed on Shen Zhui. It seems that the probability of choosing one of the two is 50-50, but Zhao Xing's chance of winning is far more than 50%!

Because he has the second level of luck!
In this way, he pulled Shen Zhui and himself into another dimension to gamble, that is: betting on luck.

"Whether he is chasing the straw man or chasing me, both choices make sense, but my luck level is higher than his." Zhao Xing said secretly.

Chen Shijie couldn't see this either.

After all, Yan Er luck is already very rare in this small county. If all genuine officials are counted together, perhaps only the county lord Li Wenzhen and Chen Shijie have Yan Er level luck.

"But the first push is enough. The second push is weaker, and the third push is all gone. The passive triggering of luck follows some mysterious law. The limit is to be able to gain the upper hand three times in a short period of time."

"Suppose I have a fourth straw man, Shen Zhui will probably be able to find the right one next time he makes a choice."

"Besides, I don't have a fourth straw man."

Feeling the footsteps approaching rapidly from behind, Zhao Xing gave up resisting.

The clouds have cleared and the rain has stopped, and the sea is calm.

Shen Zhui placed the iron bar on Zhao Xing's neck, and he couldn't help but feel refreshed.

You run, you run again!
"Brother Shen is awesome. I tried my best but I only managed to delay for a cup of tea before you caught me." Zhao Xing bowed.

Seeing this, Shen Zhui realized that he was too serious. This was just a training game. How could he put a ruler around his colleague's neck?

He quickly put away the ruler, put it back on his waist, and said with a salutation, "I am ashamed to say that Brother Zhao's magic is so exquisite and his mind is so meticulous, which is rare among the officials. I admire him."

Shen Zhui was not being polite, he really admired him.

Initially, the distance between them was only fifty meters. Zhao Xing was only at the third level of Ju Yuan, while he was at the seventh level. Logically, he should have been caught long ago. You have to know that he is a warrior and a catcher who has completed many missions!

But Zhao Xing had dragged him on for so long!
"I'm lucky. You've just met a Si Nong like me. Besides, Brother Shen adapts very quickly. The sound of your footsteps in the rain is almost impossible to grasp. If you do this kind of training a few more times, I'm afraid you will be completely adapted." What Zhao Xing said was also the truth.

There were not many opportunities for the warrior to fight Si Nong, not to mention that he had the advantage of luck.

In addition, Zhao Xing's experience and techniques in confrontation were also acquired through repeated tempering in his previous life.

In the small place of Gucheng, it is unique.

It was quite rare that Shen Zhui could force him to have no time to make the fifth straw man and could only run non-stop.

"Brother Zhao, there's no need to be modest." Shen Zhui said with a smile, "You only have four ordinary spells. If you combine more, I don't know how long it will take me to catch you."

This is true, and Zhao Xing did not deny it.

Only the Straw Man Spell is too monotonous. If he knows more elementary spells, it will also cause considerable interference to Shen Zhui. Combining multiple spells may even have a chance to hurt the opponent.

"Brother Shen, you and I should stop flattering each other." Zhao Xing pointed to the pear garden in front of him, "Why don't you sit down and eat a pear."

"This is not good. That is Lord Chen's opera house." Shen Zhui hesitated.

"Lord Chen allowed me to eat fifteen Tianyuan pears every month. Why not give you one? It's mine, so you can eat it without worry!" Zhao Xing unceremoniously picked two pears from the pear orchard and threw one to Shen Zhui.

"Okay." Shen Zhui was not polite. He could see that this pear was a treasure.

After they finished eating, Chen Shijie walked out of the study with a smile: "You are so rude, taking my pears as a favor? I just said I would give them to you to eat, when did I allow you to pick them?"

"Master Chen, these pears were picked for me." Shen Zhui stood up awkwardly, then bowed and said, "If you want to punish me, please punish me alone. It has nothing to do with Zhao Xing."

Chen Shijie nodded secretly in his heart, it seemed that he had made the right choice for Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xingze could see that Chen Shijie was not angry at all, so he smiled and said, "My Lord, if you want to punish me, I will admit it, but can you wait a moment?"

"Oh? What are you going to do?"

"Break through the fourth stage of Ju Yuan."
