"Shitty luck," Cuilv couldn't help but sigh, her face full of surprise, "I can actually have such shitty luck."

"You are ashamed to be the man who once served Long Aotian," Qin Wanwan clapped her hands lightly, a little bewildered, "You are excellent."

"I know," Xie Gutang hugged Nanfeng and looked at Jian Xingzhi with admiration in his eyes, "Senior always has a way!"

As they spoke, everyone looked at Jian Xingzhi reflected in the water mirror and walked into the Wang Family Silk Shop.

At this moment, the Wang Family Silk Shop was already overcrowded, and there were obviously fewer monks than before. It was destined that the contestants who could possibly get 60 points were eliminated from the secret realm.

Jian Xingzhi walked into the lobby and saw a rather frail scholar facing a wealthy and fleshy boss. He looked very angry: "I said that if I buy this piece of cloth, my wife will definitely like it. If she doesn't like it, I can refund her. Now my wife not only doesn't like it, but also had a big quarrel with me. You can just compensate me, but at least you should refund me the money for the cloth!"

"Zhao Xiu, when selling things, you have to speak in a lucky way. The things have been ordered and the money has been paid. Take them out and sell them. These are private goods. How can you eat the buns and then ask for a refund if they are delicious?" Wang said slowly but aggressively. He raised his hand and slapped a stain on the cloth. "Besides, it is me, Wang, who is willing to return it. It's just a small amount of money, so I won't force you. If you want to return the goods, at least bring them back in their original state. There is wax on the cloth. How can I sell it in the future?"

"You... you are talking nonsense!" Zhao Xiu raised her hand and pointed at the stain. "I have taken good care of this cloth since I brought it home. This stain was clearly there before."

"You didn't have it before, why would you buy it?" Wang Xiaoban sneered, "You are clearly blackmailing!"

"This store is a liar, it's a scam!"

"You broke something and you want to return it, you little bastard!"

The two sides were about to start cursing at each other, and Luo Xingzhou hurried forward to stop them: "Everyone, stop arguing. Is it a piece of cloth? I'll pay for it." As he said that, Luo Xingzhou took out a spirit stone from his pocket, put it in Zhao Xiu's hand, and said flatteringly, "Mr. Zhao, I'll pay for him."

As they spoke, everyone reacted, took out their money, and began to rush to pay the bill: "I'll do it! I'll pay for it!"

Zhao Xiu was still talking. He was being pulled by Luo Xingzhou, and his face turned red. After a long time, he suddenly shook off Luo Xingzhou's hand and said excitedly: "Do you think I'm a villain who is greedy for money?! This money should obviously be returned to me by him. He should return it, and we should return it to keep things quiet. Do you think I'm a villain who is blackmailing people?!"

After hearing this scolding, everyone present was stunned.

In addition to crystal, emerald green is also a bit unexpected.

"This... this costs money," Cui Lu looked at Qin Wan Wan, "What should I do?"

"This question is very simple," Qin Wanwan analyzed as she looked at the screen. "It may be very simple. His requirement is that Zhao Xiuwei make peace with the store owner and reconcile with his wife. In other words, to solve this problem, we must solve the problem between the store owner and Xiuwei separately. We need to think deeply about this problem and solve it fundamentally."

"fundamental?"

Nanfeng didn't understand. Qin Wanwan looked at the screen and thought: "The reason why Zhao Xiuwei bought the cloth was because he loved his wife, and the reason why he returned the cloth was because he had a dispute with his wife. The sweeper on the other side said that his wife complained about him spending money, which shows that his wife may not like cloth. It may be because the Zhao family is poor and his wife is afraid to spend money. Zhao Xiuwei is good at talking. He kept saying that Wang Xiban was untrustworthy. Wang Xiban is a businessman. He looks very strong. How can he accept Zhao Xiuwei's accusations? Seeing that the cloth was damaged, Zhao Xiuwei still wanted to return the money. I am afraid that it is my fault now. I must distinguish right from wrong with Zhao Xiuwei, so the two of them are in a stalemate."

"So the real starting point of the issue should be with Madam."

Xie Gutang was thinking, and Qin Wanwan nodded.

"I guess this is very much about the players' way of thinking. The first step to solve this problem should be to clarify everyone's needs. What Zhao Xiu really wants is to reconcile his relationship with his wife, while what Wang Xiban wants is the reputation of the store."

"Secondly, we need to understand people's personalities and talk to them according to their personalities to avoid irritating them."

"Afterwards, I learned what kind of person the lady was and why she accepted the cloth."

"Finally, we start with the reason why the Madam accepted the cloth and let her accept it. Her acceptance of the cloth actually represents the fusion of the couple's relationship. Zhao Xiu is happy and brings the cloth, and Wang Xiban's problem is also solved."

"The total score for this question is 10 points, and each point is worth 10 points," Qin Wanwan said nervously. "How can Jian Xingzhi answer such a complicated question?"

"Jian Xingzhi did learn it..." Cui Lu looked at the screen, feeling distressed, "But that Master Miaoyan did it!"

As he said this, he looked in the water mirror and saw that everyone was a little embarrassed after being yelled at by Zhao Xiu. Some monks tried to start from Master Wang's perspective and persuaded Master Wang: "Master, it's just a small amount of money, forget it."

"Money is a small matter," Wang Xiaoban heard this and became angry, "This concerns the reputation of my store. I can't set a precedent like this!"

"That… "

A young man's voice came from the crowd. Everyone looked over and saw Master Miaoyan smiling and asking Zhao Xiu: "Mr. Zhao said that your wife likes it very much. Do you know why your wife likes it very much?"

As he spoke, a "ten" appeared on Venerable Miaoyan's head as seen from the water mirror.

Qin Wanwan and Cuilu looked at each other and immediately realized that they had found the right direction.

"She really likes it."

Zhao Xiu said this with some discomfort: "It's so colorful, expensive and good looking. I must have read so much that I became stupid and bought this useless thing for her."

"What you said is indeed appropriate, Madam," Venerable Miaoyan comforted her, "After all, this is a token of Mr. Zhao's love. Mr. Zhao also loves Madam, so he bought these things for her."

"I'm wrong," Zhao Xiu looked a little sad, "I'm poor on weekdays, and I've let Xiangniang suffer. I've been living a good life. I got some money from writing letters for others, and I wanted to buy some cloth for Xiangniang to make some nice clothes, but she got furious and said that I shouldn't study hard, and that I was wasting my money doing these useless things. I started arguing with her..."

Seeing Zhao Xiu showing weakness, Wang Xiaoban's face became better and he just said, "That lady is stingy with the money, but she really likes it. She can use it to go wild here."

"Yes," Venerable Miaoyan said, following Wang Xiban's words, "Wang Xiban's goods are all top-notch, but my wife loves Mr. Zhao and is concerned about him, so she doesn't dare to take it. Let's do this," Venerable Miaoyan smiled and took out the spirit stone, "This piece of cloth today, consider it as a gift to my wife."

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Xiu and then at Wang Xiaoban: "What do you two think?"

This is a great solution.

It not only solved the wife's worries, but also solved the problems of both of them.

Xie Gutang frowned when he saw Master Miaoyan come up with this plan: "I'm afraid this game is about to end."

"…" Qin Wanwan shook her head, "This is still the best result."

"How to say?"

Cui Lu looked over, and Qin Wan Wan thought: "Zhao Xiu has been poor for a long time. After getting the money, he immediately wanted to give the lady the cloth. I'm afraid he just wanted to give her a gift, and he also wanted to prove himself. With his arrogant character, he bought the cloth directly for his wife. Although it solved his wife's problem, he also lost one of the most fundamental reasons for Zhao Xiu to give the cloth. He is afraid that she will not be willing. Even if she is willing, she will be sad because of her incompetence. There will always be a grudge in the relationship between husband and wife."

Cui Lu frowned at Qin Wanwan's words: "Is there a better result?"

Qin Wanwan didn't say anything. She kept looking at Jian Xingzhi. She saw that Jian Xingzhi was standing next to the cloth, staring at the stain on the cloth.

While the people around him were talking to each other, he was touching and sniffing the stain, and looking around.

Zhao Xiu accepted the proposal of Master Miaoyan. After a long silence, he said, "Thank you, sir. I want to buy this batch of cloth for my wife, and I will pay for it. But my wife doesn't want it now, so I don't want to give it to her anymore."

"Madam, you have no ill intentions," Master Miaoyan continued to persuade, "but..."

"What are the rules of our store?" Jian Xingzhi turned around, suddenly interrupting everyone and looked at Board Manager Wang.

Wang Xiaoban was stunned, and then asked Jian Xingzhi: "Under what circumstances can I return the goods? If the goods are damaged, can I return them or exchange them?"

"If there is damage, it can prove that it is my product's fault," Wang Xiaoban said blankly, "of course I should return it."

"Then why don't you retreat?"

Jian Xingzhi raised his hand and pointed at the fabric: "I just smelled it. The scent of the wax on it is exactly the same as the scent here. The marks are also from a few days ago. You said they did it themselves?"

When they heard this, everyone was stunned.

Luo Xingzhou couldn't help but quietly pulled his sleeve and whispered, "You are trying to make them reconcile, not to create conflicts."

"There's something wrong with my fabric. Can I get my money back?"

"Well said!" Zhao Xiu smiled and immediately clapped his hands, saying happily, "I said..."

"What are you so happy about?"

Jian Xingzhi raised his head, looked at Zhao Xiu, and asked, "What are you so happy about? I asked you, how much does your family spend in a month?"

"I..." Zhao Xiu was stunned by the question, bewildered, "I... I know."

"You know? How much do you make a month?"

"Two taels." Zhao Xiu's face looked good. "Well, I also help people write letters on weekdays, so I can earn a few more taels."

"How much is this piece of cloth?"

"Two." Zhao Xiu said coldly, "What does this have to do with you?"

"You earn two taels a month, and you're on the road with me. You buy a string of candied haws for five cents, a handful of vegetables for two cents, and a piece of pork for twenty cents. You earn two taels a month, and you dress so well. Have you ever asked your wife how she lives? Why does she scold you? If she eats well and dresses well, and spends every penny as twice, why do you spend two taels of silver to buy cloth? Have you ever asked her what she wants? Do you buy the cloth for her good? It's completely because this cloth can be worn on her body and can be seen by everyone. You can make money and you treat her well. Have you ever asked her what she wants?"

“What… What…” Zhao Xiu’s face turned pale and he pointed at Jian Xingzhi and spoke.

Jian Xingzhi raised his hand and pointed at Wang Xiban: "Sir, you are a big store that bullies customers. You admit your mistakes and correct them. You are a dishonest businessman!"

Then he pointed at Zhao Xiu'an and said, "You are vain, ignorant, selfish, useless, and a villain! The two of you are like a green bean and a turtle together. It's reasonable. Return the money to him immediately," Jian Xingzhi instructed Wang Xiban, "You can still hang this sign. He said he might be able to patch up the hole in the sock and keep that silly woman."

"You are really bullying me!"

Hearing this, Zhao Xiu couldn't help but lunged forward, intending to hit Jian Xingzhi.

Jian Xingzhi grabbed his hand and warned him: "I advise you not to fight with me. If you want to fight, pick a weak one, go and beat that bastard."

As he said that, he pushed lightly, and Zhao Xiu took a few steps back and bumped into Wang Xiaoban. Wang Xiaoban held him and yelled at Jian Xingzhi: "Who are you calling a cuckold?"

"Ah." Jian Xingzhi said as if it was a matter of course. Wang Xiban was panting heavily. Seeing Zhao Xiuzhen rushing at him again, he could no longer bear it. He grabbed a stool from the side and shouted, "Everyone, come on! I'll pay for the medical expenses and beat this nonsense to death!"

"Let's be reasonable, guys."

Jian Xingzhi looked at the shop assistant, Wang Xiban, and Zhao Xiuwei rushing towards him, and was a little shocked: "Did I say something wrong?!"

"I'm going to fight him!"

Wang Xiban threw a stool at him. Jian Xingzhi dodged to the side. Wang Xiban rushed forward. Zhao Xiu grabbed him and snatched the stool: "Give me the stool!"

"Brother, take this!" Wang Daban stopped Zhao Xiu's hand and changed his tone while speaking. He pulled out a wooden stick from under the table and said, "Take this!"

As he spoke, Wang the chef took out another wooden stick from under the other side of the table and glared at Jian Xingzhi fiercely: "You have been in the business for many years, and you have been bullied by these brats! I will teach you a lesson today and let you know who is the father!"

After Wang Xiban finished speaking, he rushed over with his servants and Zhao Xiuzhen, swinging his stick. Jian Xingzhi dodged their brutal movements and kept warning them: "We are only attacking mortals, so don't force me."

Just as he finished speaking, Wang Xiban and Zhao Xiu attacked him from both sides. He squatted down, and the two men hit each other on the head with their wooden sticks.

"Brother..." Blood flowed from Wang Xiaoban's head, "This stick of yours hurts a bit."

"Brother Wang..." Zhao Xiu was bleeding and looked pale, "You have a strong hand..."

“I said…” Jian Xingzhi just opened his mouth, and then the two people heard his voice and rushed towards him as if they had taken stimulants.

They seemed to have completely forgotten their original intention and kept chasing him and beating him. Jian Xingzhi was so embarrassed that he jumped onto the counter and shouted, "If you hit me again, I'll fight back!"

"come!"

Wang Xiban and Zhao Xiuwei stood below with their families, holding sticks and shouting at him: "Come on if you dare! You're going to beat us to death today! I tell you, we're going to fight you today!"

"That's right!" Zhao Xiu shouted very vigorously, "A real man's death can be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai. Today I am lucky enough to meet Brother Wang and die here with him. My life is worth it!"

"You are right, brother!" Wang Jian turned his head and looked at Zhao Xiu with deep affection, "Brother, I have nothing to fear today. Today is a life-and-death experience. I, Wang Jingui, recognize you as my brother! In the future, I hope we can be born on the same day of the same month of the same year—"

"I wish to die on the same day of the same month of the same year!"

Zhao Xiu took over the conversation.

"Okay, okay," Jian Xingzhi smiled at their deep brotherly love and hung the sword on his waist: "Okay, I'll make an exception for you today and let you know what it means to recognize your mother!"

"Bros!"

When Wang Xiaoban heard this, he shouted loudly: "Charge!"

As he said that, they all rushed forward together, and Jian Xing punched each of them one by one, sending them flying everywhere.

Outside the water mirror, everyone was watching all this in shock. Nan Feng stuttered, "Jian Daojun...Jian Daojun...it seems like something I've read in a storybook..."

"Villain."

Qin Wanwan spoke with a dead heart.

Everyone stopped talking, but then they all fell silent as they watched Jian Xingzhi fighting so happily in the water mirror.

After seeing a woman rushing into the scene, yelling "Husband!!" to Zhao Xiu'an who was knocked out, and then being knocked to the ground by Zhao Xiu'an, Cui Lu stood up and said, "Forget it, pack your bags and go home."

"Do you want to or wait?"

Qin Wanwan forced a smile: "Since I'm here..."

With the almighty forgiveness of “I’m already here”, Cuilu took a deep breath and sat down again.

On the screen, Jian Xingzhi arrogantly walked out of the room while everyone was stunned. Looking at the man outside with bruised faces and noses, he asked calmly, "Are you still fighting?"

“Husband!!”

A woman's crying was heard, and Luo Xingzhou and others chased out, and saw a woman in coarse linen clothes, holding the blood-covered Zhao Xiu'an in her arms. Zhao Xiu'an was vomiting blood and looking at the woman affectionately.

"Xiang Niang..." Zhao Xiu said vaguely, "I... I'm afraid I can't do it anymore..."

"My husband, please don't die, please don't leave me!"

"Xiang Niang..." Zhao Xiu was unwilling to move his eyes and stared at Xiang Niang, "I... I'm sorry... I know... how expensive daily necessities are... I know... how difficult life is... But, I really, really did it on purpose..."

"I know," Xiang Niang nodded while crying, "I know, but I just don't understand."

"I bought cloth for you. One day, I kept looking at you at the door of the store. I wanted to buy something you liked..."

"I like it," Xiang Niang hugged Zhao Xiu, "I like whatever you buy. As long as you live a good life, I like everything!"

"Xiang Niang..." Zhao Xiu slowly closed his eyes, "If there is a next life, I will definitely... treat you well."

"You've been very good to me," Xiang Niang cried bitterly, "If you're not very good to me, how could I marry you? Husband, please wake up! You must keep Xiang Niang!! Husband..."

"Don't cry," Jian Xingzhi couldn't help but remind Xiangniang when he saw her crying. "He just fainted. Send him to the doctor quickly. If you keep crying, he will die."

Hearing this, Xiang Niang reacted suddenly. She reached out her hand to touch the tip of Zhao Xiu's nose, took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and immediately showed a resolute look: "Husband, I will take you to the doctor, you will live, we will be fine in the future, and we will never quarrel again, we must be fine in the future!"

As she spoke, Xiang Niang found strength from nowhere, carried Zhao Xiuwei on her back, and ran towards the clinic.

Jian Xingzhi looked at them with emotion, then turned to Luo Xingzhou and concluded, "Look, we still have to find a wife. Like them," Jian Xingzhi pointed at Wang Xiban and others who were still unconscious on the ground, "there's no one to carry them."

"This..." Luo Xingzhou hesitated, "Do you need help with this?"

"It's all fine," Jian Xingzhi shrugged. "It's all an illusion anyway, so it's also real."

As he spoke, he felt the ground begin to shake, and Luo Fan's voice rang out: "Everyone, the experiment is over. Please get ready and leave the secret realm."

Jian Xingzhi turned to look at Luo Xingzhou with an expression that said "let me tell you".

Everyone stood firm, and then they felt the world spinning. After a moment, the light around them changed drastically. Finally, when it stabilized, they found themselves on the lawn at the beginning.

The water mirror has turned into a light board and starts to display the scores from low to high.

Jian Xingzhi knew his situation and didn't have much hope. He walked directly towards Qin Wanwan, sat in the audience, and said directly: "It seems we are going to start another plan."

"What plan?" Qin Wanwan was a little confused.

Jian Xingzhi pondered: "I'm afraid that it's not enough to enter Xuanshan by participating in the selection. We can only rely on the second method. I think we..."

"Wow!!"

There was a sudden scream from the crowd. Jian Xingzhi looked around carefully and then saw on the water mirror that the second place was clearly written: Jian Xingzhi.

The first place was Venerable Miaoyan, which was no surprise, but the second place was Jian Xingzhi, which was beyond the expectations of everyone present.

"I am convinced!"

Someone in the crowd immediately stood up and excitedly said to Luo Xifan: "He almost beat Zhao Xiu to death, and he can still get full marks?!"

"This..." Luo Xinfan smiled a little reluctantly, "Although the means were a little unexpected, the result was also unexpected..."

As soon as Luo Xiufan reminded them, everyone realized this.

Although Master Miaoyan solved the superficial problem, he only asked Master and Zhao Xiuwei to make concessions. Xiang Niang and Zhao Xiuwei could only maintain superficial peace at best, and the fundamental problem was not solved.

Although Jian Xingzhi became a villain after this beating, Wang Xiban and Zhao Xiu'er knew each other during the beating, and he knew Xiangniang Zhao Xiu'er's life and death very well.

Apart from Jian Xingzhi's good personal reputation, the result can be called perfect.

This is completely, sacrificing him for the benefit of everyone.

Realizing this, everyone was stunned. Luo Fan coughed lightly and said, "Those who sacrifice themselves for others can be called noble. If you trace the source, you can be called smart. Full marks, it's what they deserve."

Hearing this, Qin Wanwan couldn't help but look at Jian Xingzhi.

Jian Xingzhi was showing off his achievements to Xie Gutang. Feeling Qin Wanwan looking at him, he turned around and asked, "What are you doing?"

Qin Wanwan was questioned by him, and reacted. She retracted her gaze and said naturally, "Oh, nothing."

"Wanwan," she looked away, but Jian Xingzhi came closer and nudged her with his elbow, "How was my performance just now?"

"Good."

"I always say I'm lucky," Jian Xingzhi sighed, "I can even pass this, it seems my position as the leader is secure."

"It all depends on luck."

Knowing people and knowing their feelings is human nature, knowing the roots and the source is knowing the ways of the world.

Qin Wanwan smiled and looked into the distance. Jian Xingzhi was at a loss: "Ah?"

Qin Wanwan didn't say much, and Luo Xifan in front began to announce the news of promotion: "Please 'Reject Steamed Buns and Pickles Team' and 'Wu Xiang Zong Must-Win Team' come forward to collect the information for tomorrow's second game. I would like to point out that because there are only two teams advancing this time, the second and third levels are combined together, so please pay attention to both teams."

"I'll go get it."

Qin Wanwan jumped down happily and got the information map for the next level.

After it was brought over, everyone gathered around.

"What's the next level?"

Cui Lu was a little excited. Qin Wanwan took a look at the map and saw two words written on it:

Xuanshan maze.

Xuanshan…

Qin Wanwan raised her eyes and looked into the distance, her heart moving slightly.

She was finally going to see her parents.
