I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 978 Keeping Yourself Safe, Or...Ambition!

"With all due respect, this thing is a bit too big..."

Xu Xiaoshou thought about it for a while, but still felt that it was irrational to intervene in Tu Sheng's affairs.

He sincerely persuaded: "The best choice for seniors may not be to directly intervene and target one of them, but to let the two of them fight on their own and watch the fire from the other side."

"You're the only one who is clever, right?" The water ghost shook his head and smiled for a while, and said, "But the semi-saint is already going to drag me into the water, what do you think I can do to watch the fire from the other side without getting burned?"

"That's true..." Xu Xiaoshou rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

When was he drawn into the vortex, was he not involuntary?

This feeling has already been deeply experienced.

"Xu Xiaoshou...

"Actually, your temper is quite to my liking."

The water ghost suddenly jumped out of the topic, looked up and down at the young man in front of him, twirled his fingers and said: "If I'm not mistaken, the time for Wuxiu to teach you should not be long, and then he left soon?"

Gone...Xu Xiaoshou was speechless for a while, but nodded: "That's right, what do you mean, senior?"

The water ghost shook the Sea God's Halberd in his hand, his eyes flashed memories, and said:

"Although Wuxiu and I were in the Holy Slave, we didn't have much contact with each other. He left very early, and I was basically not in the organization.

"The relationship between us is only a few games of chess in the early days."

"Based on his personality, if you are still by your side, you should be more at ease. Of course, you will also be more courageous, and you won't look forward and backward like you are now..."

The water ghost said, glanced at Xu Xiaoshou, and said meaningfully: "He will teach you how to gain greater benefits for yourself in the midst of death and life, because this is his strong point."

What's the meaning?

Xu Xiaoshou didn't understand this sentence.

The water ghost smiled and said: "If it were him, he wouldn't persuade me how to curl up in the semi-sacred game.

"Because he knows that the so-called 'self-protection', in the eyes of the semi-sage, is just a 'waiting' to delay death.

"on the contrary,

He'd say that..."

The water ghost paused for a moment, and then said: "The half-sage is looking for you, but the target is not you, so you can play a role in it, fan the flames, and wait for the opportunity to make a profit.

"'Watching the fire from the other side' is never the best way for our generation of spiritual masters to fight for their own interests, but 'the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins' is.

"So, not only can you not retreat, you have to face up to the difficulties, use the hands of the two parties to kill each other, and in the end, the only one who survives is the winner of all the benefits."

Xu Xiaoshou was stunned.

this……

Isn't this the way of thinking of the "old six"?

I understand the truth, but how can you guarantee that you are the last one to survive?

"Senior taught you well, but I have a small question..." Xu Xiaoshou could see that the water ghost wanted to teach him some ways of survival from the side, but he didn't quite agree.

"I understand your question." The water ghost interrupted with a smile, and said:

"What you think is nothing more than 'how to ensure that you will be the last survivor'?

"Or 'If one of the two parties survives, after learning about your actions, all conflicts will be transferred to you, how will you protect yourself afterwards'...

"Or, 'I can choose to step back, why must I intervene'?"

Xu Xiaoshou nodded, affirming that this was indeed what he had in mind just now, and was even more thoughtful.

The water ghost explained patiently, as if he was teaching a junior whom he admired very much:

"You forgot about the 'controversy of the Great Dao', you forgot 'one will be successful and ten thousand bones will perish', and you even more forgot 'even if you don't move now, someday in the future, they will move you'...

"Because there is a direct conflict between you and them.

After a pause, he said with emotion:

"On the road of refining the spirit, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

"Perhaps in the early stage of cultivation, if you encounter danger and choose to retreat to protect yourself, it is a wise choice.

"But you are on the throne, or you are only a master at this time, but you have directly participated in things that belong to the throne level such as the 'Battle of the Great Dao'.

"Then 'retreat in case of trouble', or 'only seek self-protection in case of trouble, not maximizing interests', are always the next policy."

The water ghost's voice suddenly became muffled, like a great bell ringing in Xu Xiaoshou's heart:

"You're radical now, but only for your peers.

"Your opponent will never be of the same generation! Wuxiu chose you, and Bazun chose you, so it is doomed that you must be very advanced to be considered barely qualified.

"And since you have participated in various chess games of the Holy Emperor and the Half-Saint, then your ambition at the moment is not enough, far from enough!"

The water ghost stretched out his finger and tapped it in the deep sea.

The deep sea is turned into a chessboard, and there are more chess pieces on the top, constantly advancing, shattering, and rebirth.

Pointing at the chessboard, Shui Gui met Xu Xiaoshou's eyes, looked at his thoughtful face, and continued:

"In such a big game of chess, which chess piece is useful, which chess piece is disposable, which chess piece doesn't seem to be very important now, but it must be kept, because it will play the function of a god's hand in the future...

"This is all within the consideration of the chess player.

"Don't worry that they are not smart enough to beat you to death, because you are just a pawn and are not qualified to think about things outside the chessboard.

"And any chess master who is not qualified enough will be eliminated long ago; if you are useful, you will be seen by other smarter chess masters, and will be saved in the end to be used by them."

The water ghost cleared his throat, did not give him time to catch his breath, and continued:

"The reason why a chess piece is excellent and can be reused? Is it because it is strong enough, and is it valuable enough?

"Yes! But not enough.

"It has to grow, so as not to be abandoned halfway;

"It has to have its own ideas and show enough ambition to be moved from a soldier to a general;

"It has to be able to radiate light in a certain corner at a certain point in time, so that the confused chess players who have nowhere to go can clearly see... This is the opportunity of the 'God's Hand'!"

"At this time, your chance has come.

"Can you escape from this game of chess, be collected by the chess master, use it for the next game of chess, and even go round and round again, grow up with the help of chickens and lay eggs, and finally escape from the control of the chess master, and become a chess player...

"It all depends on whether you want it or not, it all depends on whether you will take advantage of the situation.

"In other words, is the ambition big enough, and is the ability strong enough...to be able to forcibly control the behavior of the chess player in the chess game!"

There was a pop.

As soon as the water ghost finished speaking, he tapped his fingers and shattered the underwater chessboard, leaving Xu Xiaoshou alone, lost in thought.

"What you said makes sense..."

"But you don't agree, right?" Shui Gui snatched Xu Xiaoshou's words, and said again, "Or, this is a bit different from what your master taught you before, isn't it?"

Xu Xiaoshou raised his eyes and stared at the water ghost's face seriously for a long time.

It wasn't until he saw that this guy was really playing the role of a senior as a guide, and not a child's play, that he became serious and replied: "He said that as a chess piece, one must have the awareness of being a chess piece, and do it well." It's enough to do what you do."

The water ghost unexpectedly did not refute, but took advantage of the situation: "So you can read this sentence well, and if you have lived to this day, it is justified."

"Is it okay?" Xu Xiaoshou felt that this sentence could be slightly modified, but it can already be used as a life-saving talisman, which is very useful.

As for more matters beyond this sentence, well, just leave it to the chess masters to solve.

"Sleeveless is right, and his words are also right, but people meet by fate, words are spoken at the right time, you have to see if this sentence is right now, isn't it?" Shui Gui Smile.

"How to say?" Xu Xiaoshou took a handful of water and listened attentively.

"If I had no sleeves, I would tell you the same thing when you are acquired, innate, grandmaster...here refers to ordinary grandmasters, and you cannot participate in the 'Battle of the Dao'.

"Because you were too weak at that time, and it was not easy when you were so weak that you could bear the mortal title of member of the Holy Slave and still survive.

"But now, the timing is different."

The water ghost shook his head, chuckled and said:

"You have become a grandmaster, and you can still control the battle for the throne and the battle for the avenue, so you have ambitions that you shouldn't have before.

"If you are still stuck in the past and don't seek change in stability, then there will be a catastrophe in the future, which will either cause you to die in despair, or make you reborn in despair...

"But at that time, after rebirth, you will lose even more!"

As soon as the water ghost stopped talking, his voice became much deeper.

"To give some examples, your master is like this, the eight masters are like this, and I am like this...

"Among the hostile forces, Gou Wuyue is still like this, and he is even worse. Whether he will live or die after that is still unknown."

Xu Xiaoshou is so clever, he suddenly realized a lot.

ambition...

It is indeed the driving force for a person to grow.

The words of the water ghost are nothing more than a variant of "be prepared for danger in times of peace".

It is of course irrational to listen to these words in a peaceful age.

But in this age of spirit refinement where people eat people and beasts devour beasts, either you die or I live, it fits perfectly.

Most of Xu Xiaoshou didn't understand the example Shui Gui gave.

After all, he still doesn't know what happened to the water ghost himself, and the eight gods know the truth behind the "fall".

Ke Sang Lao was arrested and Gou Wuyue was imprisoned, which fit the theme too well.

What's more, Xu Xiaoshou thought of more.

Didn't the change of Leixi'er be caused by the shock of reality after leaving the spiritual palace where there was only innocence and romance?

Isn't the difficulty of keeping watch at night the same as growing up to a certain stage and still not realizing it, and finally being completely changed by a catastrophe that belonged to him?

To keep one's place, or...Ambition?

The front and back of the road require a corresponding mentality, which is indeed different!

"I seem to understand what Senior said..."

Xu Xiaoshou was sincerely grateful.

If there is no such thing as the water ghost, if he continues to follow Sang Lao's creed, he may encounter difficult problems in the future.

But at this moment, the words of the water ghost changed his mentality, and also killed the future catastrophe like night watch in the cradle.

"I just taught you what Wuxiu hasn't taught you before. After all, you are also my... junior." Shui Gui stared at Xu Xiaoshou softly, like an old father.

Looking at it, his eyes were in a trance, and the person in front of him seemed to have become another person.

"Calculate your age..."

He groaned, the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up, not the playful kind, but very warm.

But suddenly thought of something, the water ghost suddenly woke up, and did not continue to speak.

"What?" Xu Xiaoshou looked up, but didn't listen to Qing Shuigui's words.

"Nothing." The water ghost returned to his normal smile.

"..."

This is what it looks like!

Don't you think of me as your deceased son or daughter?

Xu Xiaoshou narrowed his eyes, silently pondering in his heart, finally thought about it, and still bowed sincerely: "More."

"You're welcome." The water ghost's lips turned up again, and he said jokingly, "I just want to trick you into doing me a favor. If you appreciate me so much, I will feel sorry."

Xu Xiaoshou: "..."

You are so honest!

In my entire life, I have never seen someone so honest as you!

"Tell me, what do I need to do! But first, even if I am involved, at least you have to guarantee that I will not die."

Xu Xiaoshou shrugged, and said helplessly: "It is undeniable that your words just now are too deceptive, but my life is important, and I cannot die. This is the lowest bottom line."

The water ghost is too frank, frankly it makes people feel chilling, and said flatly: "I can't guarantee whether I will die or not. Even I am not fully sure whether I can succeed in the semi-holy game, but if a person has no ambition, what does he have to do with salted fish?" The difference? If you don’t fight now, there will be a lot of people trying to take your way in the future!”

Xu Xiaoshou rolled his eyes, but knew that this was the truth.

His current Dao has not yet fully formed, but even the Temple of the Holy Spirit is offending, let alone the future?

"So?" Xu Xiaoshou raised his eyebrows.

"Hehe..." Seeing that the young man was finally moved and willing to help, the water ghost smiled relievedly, "Jiang's semi-sage wants the king of hell, so I will find him the king of hell, and if he wants Leijiatong, I will find him Leijiatong, you It's easy to do..."

"You won't let me pretend to be Huang Quan?" Xu Xiaoshou frowned and interrupted.

"Smart!" Shui Gui snapped his fingers, and said in an appreciative tone, "I just like chatting with smart people."

Clever you big-headed ghost, if you become a direct target like this, I will die... Xu Xiaoshou cursed angrily in his heart, and suddenly his eyes rolled, thinking of something.

"Don't talk about these things. You asked me to help, and you know how much I am. You must have thought about my way out before you said that."

Xu Xiaoshou was very clear, and smiled with his mouth crooked, "Since you are so frank, I won't beat around the bush. How can I live in this matter, and what can I gain after or before the event? Please protect me." Little life, help me grow?"

Since we want to talk about ambition.

Xu Xiaoshou's greatest ambition now is to become the throne.

He doesn't need other things, as long as the realm can be crossed smoothly, the combat power can be soared directly. At that time, with the help of the holy image, I am afraid that under the semi-sage, as long as they don't meet the level of the eight masters, they can walk sideways.

The water ghost clicked his tongue in amazement, and sighed: "You ghost is a bit too smart, you can even figure out what I am scheming, and after you figure it out, you can still negotiate conditions so calmly... People, you can't be too smart!"

"Pull the big flag, pull the tiger's skin, catch the snake with the stick, and make the fisherman reap the rewards... Didn't you just teach you all these things?" Xu Xiaoshou chuckled happily.

The water ghost was stunned.

How can those words just now be summed up into such crooked ways?

But he didn't care about it, and shook his head with a smile: "Very well, well said, I can't guarantee your life or death, but if you want a little grandmaster to intervene in the Holy Bureau, why don't you give me some means of self-defense?"

Want to give something?

Xu Xiaoshou's eyes lit up.

The water ghost, who loves birds even to the eight masters, and even the half-sage dares to talk about blasphemy and slaughter, will the things he wants to give be low-grade?
