The Era of Game

16 Asking for Benefits

    This afternoon, Wan Jingtian was not in a hurry. He stood up several times and wanted to go to Li Zheng himself, but in the end, he managed to endure it.

    He knows that at this time he must not be discerned, and he cannot be aware of his purpose, because haste will not be achieved; moreover, he, the "water imperial messenger", pretends to be alright, really wants to go out on a rampage. It is estimated that he will soon be discovered that he has no force at all.

    He took a deep breath, persuading himself not to worry.

    But as time passed, his thoughts became more and more chaotic, and he even suspected that his identity had been exposed.

    In the evening, Wan Jingtian's door was finally knocked, and it was Li Zheng's voice that came from outside the door: "Li Zheng sees the Lord of the Water."

    But this sound made Wan Jingtian's heart stunned.

    To say that Wan Jingtian waited for this afternoon, he was waiting for Li Zheng to come; now that Li Zhengzhen is here, he is starting to get nervous instead. Because this means that the game between him and Li Zheng, or Shi Rongshan's cottage, will officially begin.

    And Li Zheng is his first opponent.

    Although Li Zheng is only about 30 years old, he is now Shi Rongshan's "second master" and even Shi Rongshan's "army officer". Wan Jingtian and Li Zhengdou are definitely "leapfrogging to kill monsters".

    Wan Jingtian took a book from the bookshelf, sat down on the side of the table, took a deep breath, and put on a calm and relaxed look, before shouting in a deep voice: "Please come in."

    Li Zheng pushed the door in, bowed his fist, and said, "Li Zheng is too late. Let the water make the adults wait."

    In the words, they are very hypocritical.

    Wan Jingtian didn't get up, didn't even raise his eyelids. He kept looking at the book in his hands, suppressing the tension in his heart, as if he was really fascinated by the content of the book. He said: "The second master is so busy, I want you to come to my place, which really bothers me."

    Li Zheng's smile was very brilliant. Compared with the previous time when facing Gao Baoshan, it was a different kind of smile.

    Wan Jingtian always felt that when Li was facing Gao Baoshan, there was a kind of "can't resist" that was suppressed; and when facing him, he was eager to break free from suppression.

    Li Zheng explained: "It's no wonder the Lord of the Watermaster, the sub-rudder is personally taking care of the affairs of Shuitian Village. For the time being, let me take full responsibility for the affairs of the cottage. It is really useless for a while. It is too late."

    With that, Li Zheng sat on the chair on the other side of the table.

    Li Zheng's words sounded nothing wrong at first, but Wan Jingtian understood very well in his heart: He was absolutely deliberate.

    Wan Jingtian had a lot of energy to "stand up" in front of Li, but Li Zheng smiled and sat uninvited at this time. Obviously, he didn't have the same share as Wan Jingtian in prison. In awe. Wan Jingtian knew that this was probably because, from the time he was in prison until now, he has never shown the ability or courage like a "water imperial messenger", so Li Zheng, who is shrewd like a monkey, had to "challenge" Wan Jingtian. Authoritative thoughts. And Li Zheng's delay in coming after receiving Wan Jingtian's summons was also his first attempt at this idea.

    This is the case between people, and one party is always stronger. When determining who is strong and who is weak, there will be a game. This game can sometimes be detected, sometimes not, but it is all there.

    If possible, Wan Jingtian actually wants to use the simplest and rude ways to gain an advantage in this game, such as using force to defeat Li Zheng. But obviously, he cannot, at least not yet; especially on this Shijingshan, on Li Zheng's site.

    Therefore, Wan Jingtian can only rely on deception and luck. He told himself that he could not be stage fright, and he had to pretend to be confident and shock the opponent. So he slowly cooled his face and said, "Is the second boss really that I can’t hear anything when I’m in this room? In the afternoon, I heard the young man passing by my door saying, "The second boss, you’re going to bed." ."

    With that said, Wan Jingtian put the bronze epee that Li Zheng gave him last night on the table with a bang, and placed it between him and Li Zheng, and continued: "I think you are really tired of the second master. Otherwise, I mistakenly thought that my water imperial messenger had arrived on your territory, and you were going to give me a blow."

    In the last few words, Wan Jingtian spoke slowly and clearly.

    Li Zheng still kept a smiling face, as if he were not surprised, he said: "This... is indeed the villain's neglect! But the villain is indeed entrusted by the sub-rudder, and he has to worry about it. From last night to today noon, he has not closed his eyes. I am really afraid. In such a state of mind, he looked disrespectful to see the Lord Shuizhi, and after a little rectification, he came immediately."

    With that said, Li Zheng kindly pushed the bronze sword that was placed on the table to one side.

    This round, Wan Jingtian was still in the wind.

    Wan Jingtian certainly didn't really want to fall out with Li Zheng. What I said just now was just to test Li Zheng's attitude so that he would not be too passive. Of course, this kind of temptation will be accepted if you see it well. So Wan Jingtian laughed: "Second master, don’t mind. I’m delicious here with you, so how can I talk about “sniffing”. However, the matter in Shuitian Village is solved, I want to ask my question. Benefits..."

    Li Zheng rolled his eyes and said, "Of course the benefits of the water envoys must be given, of course, they must be given! It's just that the sub-rudder has not come back, you see..."

    Wan Jingtian smiled and said, "Second master, don't be nervous, you can decide what I want."

    "Oh?" Li Zheng expressed an expression willing to hear the details.

    "I want to ask the second master for ten people to be my entourage."

    Li Zheng did not think about this request, and his face was a little stiff: "Sir, I am on the mountain at this time, plus me, there are less than 20 people in total, and they are still responsible for the mountain. There is really no way... …"

    Wan Jingtian waved his hand: "I haven't finished. I heard that you brought some prisoners from the paddy field village and locked them on the mountain. I only need to find ten people from there. This kind of trivial matter is the second master. Can't you still be the master?"

    Li Zheng was inexplicable: "Those people...sir, to put it plainly, those people are just useless, old, old, small, and wounded. They really can't do anything for the adult."

    Wan Jingtian scowled and looked at Li Zheng: "Second master, whoever I want to be my entourage is my business, so I don't need to worry about the second master!"

    Li Zheng quickly stood up: "Naturally not." Then he said hesitantly. "Then, please come with me, Lord Waterman."

    Li Zheng took Wan Jingtian out of the house and headed to Houfeng. However, they did not take the shortcut through the cave.

    Wan Jingtian didn't know why Li Zheng wanted to stay close and seek further distance, or that he didn't know why Li Zheng had to hide the existence of a cave from him.

    Li Zheng smiled and led the way, Wan Jingtian followed silently, pretending to know nothing.

    When he arrived at the open space in Houfeng that was full of prisoners, Wan Jingtian seemed to randomly place ten of them, and said to Li Zheng: "I need these few people."

    Li Zheng opened his mouth wide in surprise: those ten people are weak and panting, no matter which one is the one who stepped into the coffin with one foot!
