Chapter 722 I Am Going to Lose so Much!
After Xiao decisively gave up the idea of trying to change history, he resolutely stopped paying attention to what happened in the Central Plains and returned to Xiaoxitian to make trouble.
At this point in this thrilling gamble, he had successfully won a huge 15% of the total spiritual essence share.
Such a rich harvest was a full load for Xiao, so he began to prepare for the withdrawal of investment.
You know, 15% of the spiritual essence share has already exceeded the normal standard for an individual.
What's more, after the dust settles, Xiao himself can still get a guaranteed 10% share.
If he continues to grab so recklessly, it is very likely to cause the joint exclusion and jealousy of the gods.
After all, even if all the gods know that all this was won by Xiao on the chess table with his own calculation ability, it is always difficult for people to remain rational and calm.
Those gamblers who lose money at the gambling table often resort to any means and disregard the consequences, just as the Jade Emperor and Tathagata did not hesitate to join forces to seize Xiao's golden kingdom.
Since ancient times, the hatred of the rich has always existed in every era. When you enjoy the biggest and most delicious piece of meat, you must always leave a bone and soup for other gods and Buddhas. If you try to monopolize all the benefits alone, there will definitely be no good results.
Xiao's wise move of withdrawing capital and cashing out has instantly reduced the spiritual pressure on Cao Rui and the prime minister, which is equivalent to extending their precious lives for two years.
At the same time, Xiao's superficial attitude in this move undoubtedly conveyed an important signal to the outside world:
He knows how to stop and understands the principle of stopping when you are ahead.
Acting in this way, the faces of several great masters who have already gambled red-eyed have eased slightly, and the stone hanging in their hearts has finally fallen to the ground, and they breathed a long sigh of relief.
To be honest, the battles during the Three Kingdoms period really taught them what a sudden change of situation really is, and almost all of them were won by the few.
Each side would promote itself before the battle, and just when everyone thought that the side with the strongest soldiers and horses would win,
the result was without exception, almost every large-scale battle was lost by the side with more people, which was simply far from the truth.
Yuan Shao, who had strong soldiers and horses and sufficient food and grass, was killed by Cao Cao, who was far weaker than him, and unified the entire north and occupied half of the country.
Then Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops were burned in the Battle of Chibi, and he never recovered from it, and he was unable to complete the unification until his death.
Liu Bei was even more outrageous. His million-strong army was burned by Lu Xun's fire for 800 miles, and the entire Shu Han's decades of foundation were burned down in one fire.
Sun Quan was not a human being. In the Battle of Hefei, he was able to win 100,000 against 800 even if he was a dog tied to his head coach.
But in the end, the 800 Tiger Soldiers led by Zhang Liao killed 100,000 soldiers as if they were in an empty land, and even Sun Quan was almost captured alive!
It can be said that: 800 Tiger Soldiers stepped on the river, and 100,000 Wu soldiers were frightened!
After this battle, even Laojun, who was always calm and composed, and did not get happy or sad because of things, was so angry that his eyes were wide open, and his eyeballs seemed to be spewing fire.
Because this wave not only made him return to the pre-liberation period, but also lost all the spiritual chips he had harvested from retail investors before,
Even lost most of his original capital, which really made Laojun lose a lot of money.
As for the other great supernatural powers, although they did not suffer as heavy losses as Laojun, they also lost quite tragically, and were more or less beaten by Xiao.
The gods remembered that the entire Dongtian Palace was shrouded in heavy dark clouds and violent thunder and lightning in those days. The air was so oppressive that it was suffocating, and the air pressure was so low that it was terrible.
The middle and grassroots gods in it were silent, and they didn't even dare to breathe.
In sharp contrast, only the sky above the Yaochi Palace was still sunny and sunny.
However, I heard that the Queen Mother had suddenly got a gasp and had a severe stomachache. I had no choice but to temporarily close myself and recuperate for a few days.
…
…
Without the interference of Xiao, the unexpected factor, the wheel of history rolled forward, and its direction was still developing as before.
Zhuge Liang, who was extremely wise and loyal, resolutely went to Qishan six times to realize the great ideal of restoring the Han Dynasty.
However, every expedition gradually weakened the national strength of Shu Han, like a candle in the wind, becoming weaker and weaker.
Despite this, Zhuge Liang remained undeterred and planned every battle with all his heart and soul, but fate did not seem to favor this peerless wise man.
In the end, he died of illness in Wuzhangyuan with endless regrets and unwillingness, leaving the world with the heartbreaking words "How can the vast heaven be so unkind to me?" It was really sad and lamentable!
Shortly after Zhuge Liang's death, Cao Rui, the emperor of Wei, also ushered in the end of his life.
Because the spiritual essence in his body was too huge and he could not withstand the backlash of this powerful force, Cao Rui passed away five years later.
Before his death, he entrusted his young son Cao Fang to Sima Yi and Cao Shuang, hoping that they could assist the young new emperor with all their heart and soul to allow the Wei Dynasty to continue.
After Cao Fang ascended the throne, Sima Yi and Cao Shuang became the most powerful figures in the court.
The two began rounds of expeditions to the east and west in an attempt to expand the territory of Wei.
At the same time, a brave and fearless general, Jiang Wei, appeared on the Shu Han side.
Jiang Wei inherited Zhuge Liang's will and was determined to fight for Shu Han with his last bit of strength.
In the next short month, Jiang Wei actually launched as many as ten northern expeditions.
Facing the fierce attack of Cao Wei's army, Jiang Wei led the Shu army to resist tenaciously and repelled the enemy's attack again and again.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Jiang Wei tried, the strength of Shu Han and Dongwu could not compete with Cao Wei, which occupied the nine states.
After a long battle, the two countries were eventually dragged down little by little by Cao Wei with its strong national strength.
During this period, an unexpected thing happened.
Sun Quan's soul was forcibly taken away from the underworld by Taishang Laojun, and twisted into a wick, placed in a bright lamp in the palace, and was roasted by fire day and night.
This approach was really a bit too much. After all, Sun Quan was the soul of a generation of emperors, who could be deified after death, and was a natural member of the Five Emperors Party.
Treating an emperor soul like this is a serious provocation to the dignity of the Five Emperors of the Five Directions.
But perhaps because Laojun gave too much, the Five Emperors did not react at all and simply ignored the fact that Sun Quan, the emperor soul, was being manipulated by Laojun.
The only thing to blame is that Sun Quan really made Laojun lose badly, and he had to bring him here to vent his anger even if he lost money.
