Chapter 280 Team Spirit [Two in One]

After completing the task, the next issue that arises is Yu Linglong's assignment.

At this point, Feng Daoist's expression eased a little. He sneered, took out five Yu Linglong, held them in his palm, and said, "How to distribute the five Yu Linglongs you obtained through cooperation, you six people can figure it out among yourselves."

After these words were spoken, everyone pondered for a moment.

We didn't finalize the distribution issue when we started working together, and now that we've reached this point, it's really a bit awkward.

This is not a stupid question like distributing five cups of water to six old men. After all, water can be poured into a container, and it doesn't matter even if some saliva is mixed in and given to the old men to drink.

But five jade balls are just five balls, there is no way to split them into six parts, and it is impossible to make them evenly distributed.

Shang Yunhai said: "At the beginning of the cooperation, we said that if it doesn't work, we can draw lots to solve it."

"But it's easy to be unfair this way." Chen Xuan said, "What if someone just needs this one and doesn't get it, while someone doesn't need this one and gets it. I had two Yu Linglong in the last round, and I think I can give them up this round."

"This is even more unfair." Wu Handing also shook his head and said, "Your Buddhist music was crucial in defeating the demon this time. My contribution was the smallest, so it's reasonable for me not to take Yu Linglong."

“This isn’t good either. Giving up Yu Linglong based on your own contribution may seem noble, but Brother Wu, you don’t have Yu Linglong yourself, and you may need it more than others. And if we really rank them according to contribution, then future cooperation will inevitably lead to competition for performance during the trial, and arguments about who contributed more afterwards. So this isn’t a good idea.” Liang Yue denied this statement.

"Then I suggest that we just sign a contract." Qi Yingwu said, "Among the six of us, if anyone is in the bottom two at the end, the person with the most Jade Linglongs needs to give one to the person with the least. Even though there is only one, it has to be written in black and white and taken seriously."

"This is feasible..." Liang Yue looked up at Taoist Feng, but he didn't know whether they would agree.

Sure enough, Taoist Feng refuted with a wicked smile: "Of course not. How can Yu Linglong be given to each other? In that case, if Wen Yifan and Liang Yue collude, Wen Yifan is strong and gives half of Yu Linglong to Liang Yue. Even if Liang Yue is weak, can she still take him in?"

"Senior Feng, what do you mean by that?" Liang Yue couldn't help but frown when he heard it.

"It's just an inappropriate example." Taoist Feng raised his hand.

"It is indeed inappropriate." Shang Yunhai said: "Junior Brother Liang now has the most Yu Linglong, he is not weak at all."

Although he was speaking for Liang Yue, Liang Yue still wanted to complain in his heart, "Are you only denying the second half of the sentence?"

Don't you want to clarify the possibility that I'm in collusion with Senior Sister Wen?

"In short, whoever you decide now will own Yu Linglong must own it, and it cannot be changed afterwards." Taoist Feng emphasized.

The purpose of doing this was to set a trap for them.

According to their experience, the characters of the Tianjiao are always strong and competitive, and they are unwilling to give in. Only after experiencing disputes can one know the importance of unity.

Originally, they were expected to work in three groups, with nine people sharing five jade linglongs. Now, only six people were needed, which was beyond the designer's expectation.

Although everyone seems to be behaving well so far, being humble and not arguing, how can we let them pass so easily?
It would be better to collide with it again.

It would be best if they could fight each other, fight for their heads and brains, and finally build a solid friendship through destruction. This is what he wants to see as a designer.

"Then I don't want it." Wen Yifan said: "I am the strongest, one less pill doesn't matter to me."

"This is even worse. It would be equivalent to using Miss Wen's strength to cover for us. This is very unfair to the three people who did not participate in the cooperation." Wu Handing said.

Although he has the least Yu Linglong here, he will definitely benefit from the guarantee, but his two brothers are still outside, and he certainly doesn't want to benefit alone by joining forces with others.

The situation was at a stalemate. Everyone wanted to not use it to gain benefits, but it was difficult for them to negotiate a fair solution.

At this moment, Liang Yue suddenly said: "Everyone, I have a plan."

"Oh?" Everyone looked at him, "Do you have another plan?"

"I have an idea. We can't distribute it according to contribution because it may affect the performance in the next cooperation. Why don't we introduce a new round of competition and decide who gets the Yu Linglong based on the performance in the new round of competition." Liang Yue said.

Taoist Feng secretly praised in his heart, that’s right, I want you to compete!

Fight, fight!
But then Liang Yue said, "The content of this competition cannot be determined by cultivation level. It must be absolutely fair and just. Everyone has the same chance of winning, but it must also be competitive. If it relies purely on luck, it's no different from drawing lots. It's best to have both cooperation and opposition, and everyone can communicate with each other and enhance their feelings during the process..."

"Where in the world is there such a perfect competition?" Chen Xuanjiu wondered.

"Yes, and it is also very popular in Qingyang Dao Palace, that is..." Liang Yue waved his hand, "Mahjong!"

After hearing this answer, everyone was silent for a moment, then looked at each other, blinked, and nodded in unison: "Yes!"

Wu Handing said, "Why don't we have a hot pot meal together first, and then go play mahjong. We found a very good restaurant last time."

Seeing everyone suddenly start to happily discuss where to go for hotpot and whether or not to take a shower before playing mahjong, Feng Daoren suddenly felt that the situation had gone astray again.

What happened to the agreement that there is no construction without destruction?

Why did you unite so quickly? I even saw some invisible flame burning. Is that the team spirit?
No.

Why did you jump over all the obstacles we encountered back then?

……

The words are divided into two parts.

While they were happily discussing where to go for food, drinks and fun, Yan Shenbing and his friends were in a miserable situation.

"Second brother, you go first, I'll cover you!"

In the dark cave, Yan Shenbing shouted, and his internal energy turned into a solid shield, which he fiercely pressed forward.

boom--

This was their third time dealing with this demon. At first, the demon just swung his hoe, creating a wave of gravel. Monk Yuansheng and Yan Shenbing were in the front, while Lin Fenghe shot arrows from behind, easily knocking the demon down.

But unexpectedly, the demon did not die after falling to the ground. Instead, he transformed again under the gushing of demonic energy, and countless tentacle-like vines grew on his body!

When he stood up again, his body had become quite huge, with thousands of vines piercing into the ground, rumbling and stirring the earth, and the devil energy was like a fountain. One after another, the vines drilled into the ground and then sprang out from under their feet, and once they were hit, they would be bound.

Countless vines crisscrossed each other, making it almost impenetrable, leaving no room for attack.

The three of them had no chance to fight back against the transformed demon and could only retreat for the time being.

After another defeat, they exited the cave to discuss.

"No way." Monk Yuansheng frowned. "This guy is too powerful after his transformation. It doesn't look like we three can handle him together. Do we need to find someone from another group to cooperate with us?"

Yan Shenbing also said: "It seems to be like this, so should we go find them?"

"No." Lin Fenghe stood on a tree branch, looked into the sky, and refused.

"Why?" Yan Shenbing looked up and asked, "Second brother, you don't agree? Do you think we can get through?"

"I can't beat them." Lin Fenghe replied: "But we can't take the initiative in banding together."

"What's the difference between active and passive in this matter?" Monk Yuansheng asked in confusion, "If we really have guts, we can just fight it out without asking for help. It's the same whether you go out and find someone to help you or stay here and let others find you to help you, isn't it? What's the big deal?"

Lin Fenghe leaned over, smoothed his long hair, and then said leisurely: "It's embarrassing."

Monk Yuansheng rolled his eyes and looked at Yan Shenbing, his eyes probably saying... Is this guy impure or sick?

Yan Shenbing responded with a helpless look, as if saying... My second brother has been ill for a while.

From what I witnessed, it lasted at least seven or eight days.

"Then let's wait here." Monk Yuansheng had no choice but to compromise.

Yan Shenbing looked into the distance and said, "I don't believe they can get through this demon cave without the three of us. Let's wait here peacefully. They should come to us for help soon."

"Okay!" Monk Yuansheng nodded, "Then let's take a break and try again later. Maybe we can defeat them with just one burst of energy."

"Okay." Yan Shenbing agreed.

The three of them were not willing to admit defeat. Looking at the cave, they all had a fierce fighting spirit in their eyes. The invisible team spirit was also ignited among the brothers.

"Beat him!" Monk Yuansheng shouted.

But just as the fire started, a figure came running over there. It seemed to be Wu Handing. He called out from afar, "Big brother! Second brother!"

"It's my second brother." Yan Shenbing pointed over there and said to Lin Fenghe, "Second brother, look, my second brother is here to find us. He must be here to cooperate with us."

Lin Fenghe nodded slightly, revealing a smile that showed he was in control of the situation.

Then, Wu Handing came closer and called out, "Brother, brother, come with me quickly, it's too late to eat hot pot."

Yan Shenbing, Lin Fenghe, and Monk Yuansheng: "?"

……

While the trial in Qingyang Cave was going on, over a wasteland in the north, the moon was high in the sky and the night was as cool as water.

Two shadows, one blue and one white, slowly passed by. It looked like they were walking slowly, but their figures were erratic, and each step seemed to be more than a hundred feet away. However, the two of them kept the same pace, and the distance between them remained the same.

"I never thought that my sister would come to Yin Kingdom in person." The face of the woman in green was extremely blurry in the moonlight. She was clearly standing there, but it seemed that the harder you tried, the harder it was to see her face.

"Then what should I do?" The woman in white tied her hair up in a bun with a silver hairpin, and the rest of her black hair fell down like a waterfall behind her, still reaching her waist. Her face was gentle and white, her eyes reflected the moon, and her temperament was like a goddess.

She asked back, and then said softly: "Yin State assassinated our Tianjiao, but we did not take any revenge. The leaders of the eight tribes are very dissatisfied with this matter. I have to go out in person to calm their anger."

"I went all the way to Taihuang Mountain last time, hoping to stir up some trouble." Green Snake said, "I wanted to kill one or two important figures of the royal family, but I didn't expect the Yin people to be even more ruthless to their own people. They directly killed all 32 royal elders. Sister, if I take action again, I might attract attention and I won't be able to come back."

"Heh." The woman in white chuckled, "You."

She looked at the sky and the moon, and said, "We have been planning our spy plan in the early years. It has indeed provided us with great help since ten years ago, and brought back a lot of important intelligence. But in the past two years, since the establishment of the Zhuxie Division, the spies that were trained at great cost have been eliminated one by one. In order to fight against the Zhuxie Division, the resources you demand are also increasing day by day. In fact, all departments have complaints, and the voices that do not want to continue this plan have gradually increased. If we don't make some achievements, then Huanshen Peak may really stop the spy plan in the end."

"Then they will regret it." The green-clothed woman snorted coldly, "Thirty years have passed, and those fat-bellied leaders have forgotten how difficult it is to fight against the Yin Kingdom. Or maybe they don't want to fight at all, and just take the money from the Yin Kingdom and sell our Yangtu's resources at a low price to maintain their own luxurious life. How can we defeat the Yin Kingdom with such a group of insects?"

"People like that are only a part of the population after all. If there really are people among them who are colluding with the Yin Kingdom, the Huanshen Summit will take action." said the woman in white.

"I understand. Every country has those kinds of bugs. It's just a matter of how many there are. It depends on who kills them the hardest." The woman in green said, "What I'm worried about is that Yin State has taken action against them recently. Corrupt officials, royal family members... these bugs that will cause the country to fall. Originally, there were the same number of them on both sides, but Yin State has been killing them recently. I heard from some spies in the court that some officials in Yin State are no longer willing to accept bribes! Even if it's only a small number, this trend is extremely dangerous for us."

"The recent situation seems to be unfavorable to us, so I came." The woman in white said, "After all, those are long-term things. The current thing is that as long as we win the battle to capture the city, we can immediately gain the upper hand. At that time, no matter whether Yin Kingdom makes peace or war, we will be able to take the lead."

"Something like that happened in the last battle to capture the city. Will Yin Kingdom still have loopholes this time?" The woman in green asked doubtfully.

"Everything always has weaknesses." The woman in white pointed to the distance, where a towering mountain temple could be seen, built on a giant peak that was towering into the clouds and had hideous rocks.

"Their team will come to Jilei Temple next. We should make arrangements here in advance and wait for them."

As she spoke, she suddenly turned around and glanced in the direction of Zhongzhou Longyuan City.

"Chen Su, I must beat you this time!"

　Good morning.
