I Slay Demons in the Demon City/
Chapter 127 Which came first, the chicken or the egg
"Oh, that's wonderful!
Who would dare not believe what Immortal Master Ma said?
Good, this cup of wine, I will do it for you, I wish you success!"
Xu Shichang and the officials raised their glasses one after another to Ma Ji and Cheng Yaojin..
Meanwhile, Mademoiselle Pearl tugged at Ma Ji's sleeve and said:
"Brother Ma Ji, I want to go with you too!"
Ah, Pearl, don't join in the fun.
We want to go too, but we're afraid we'll drag Master Ma down."Hsu Zhuo and Charlie Tsao quickly drew Pearl to one side and gave her some thought.
"When a man goes to do something big, he must not have a woman holding him back!
Think about it. What a dangerous place Tiger Mountain is!
Immortal Master Ma and the others had to go through so many risks and huge tests to complete the mission!
They can't even protect themselves, but they still have to take care of your safety. Think about it, won't you be a burden to them after you go?"
Miss Pearl managed to push the two loathsome fellows away, and then ran up to Ma Ji and said:
"Brother Ma Ji, tell me the truth. Do you think I'm a burden?"
Before Ma Ji could speak, Cheng Yaojin answered,
"Humph! A woman will only affect the speed at which I can pull out my axe!
This girl, don't make trouble!
We're not going to Weiwu Mountain to negotiate with Long Aotian.
You are a girl, don't join in the fun!"Cheng Yaojin's words were very reasonable. Xu Shichang and the officials, big and small, advised Pearl:
"Why, Miss Pearl, a clever girl like you would understand that, wouldn't you?
If you really don't think it's fun, then you can go to the seaside with us and watch our actual combat drill!
Don't you like watching cannons? Our performance on the sea will be more fun than going to Weiwu Mountain!"
Pearl glared at them and said:
"You guys are just making trouble here. I want to listen to Brother Ma Ji. I don't want to listen to you guys..
”
Ma Ji wanted to bring Miss Pearl into his plan to go to Weiwu Mountain, which required everyone's approval..
This is not something that two people can enjoy. Going to Weiwu Mountain to negotiate is a plan made by everyone, and the poor main planner-
Lord Hsu's old secretary has died a glorious death. So, if we take Pearl directly to participate in the operation, we must win everyone's approval and consent before it can be logical..
"Cough cough! Everyone, calm down. Regarding this matter, I don't want to force you to agree in my capacity as commander in chief..
I felt it necessary to take Pearl with me on this mission..
”
When Ma Ji said this, he was immediately opposed by everyone..
Xu Xiangqian 1 face serious said:
"Ah, Immortal Master Ma, you don't really think so, do you?
You're so speechless!
Bringing a little girl to participate in such a dangerous and important action plan, Master Ma, aren't you adding to your own troubles? Adding to your troubles?
Immortal Master Ma, you can't be selfish. This is a war!
In war, no one can be selfish..
Even if you were commander-in-chief, even if you were closer to Miss Pearl, you could not disregard the general plan for your own selfish preference!"
"Yes, yes, Lord Xu, what Captain Xu said makes sense!
It's true that Master Ma may have been used to being free and lax in the past. He didn't undergo strict training in the army, nor did he have the experience accumulated in our long-term official work. Therefore, his behavior has personal feelings. We can understand this..
But we must all beg you, that you should not take Miss Pearl on such a dangerous mission!
Otherwise, we will definitely have emotions!"
Ma Ji was very curious and surprised. Why were they so emotional? Wasn't it just bringing more people to participate in the plan?
Does one more person's participation affect the success or failure of the whole project?
This is an obvious preference for boys over girls!
Or do you not trust me, the commander-in-chief?
"Brother Ma Ji, otherwise, I won't go!
Look at them all so vehemently opposed, as if my joining was a great sin..
I'm here to wish you success, okay?
I really want to go with you, I already told you, I can't leave you for a day!
And you promised me you'd never let me leave your side..
Wuwuwu…
Ying Ying…"
:.
: Miss Pearl cried, and at once made some blush, and thought they had gone too far.
But some people are even more disgusted.
"Look! This is the consequence of bringing a girl home to bear the consequences of dangerous actions. She will cry and cry whenever she encounters anything. It will affect her mood too much!
If I were to carry out a mission and there were women crying beside me, I wouldn't be able to do anything!"
Mademoiselle Pearl's crying and crying strengthened Ma Ji's resolve, and he calmly said to them:
"How little our Pearl is valued!
Everyone knows that Miss Pearl's eloquence is extraordinary..
Negotiate. Do we have to fight and kill? Or do we have to negotiate?
Talk, of course, you need someone who is very eloquent to talk..
Therefore, the protagonist of my plan to negotiate with Long Aotian will be played by Miss Pearl..
What? Anyone?
Anyone who is not convinced can stand up and argue with Miss Pearl!"
Ma Ji's reason is not unreasonable.
How is Miss Pearl's eloquence, or is there someone who is not convinced?.
"Haha, if you want to debate, then I like this one the most..
Miss Pearl, why don't we play one game?"
He didn't expect Xu Zhuo to jump out this time!
Pearl stared angrily at Xu Zhuo and said:
"Kid, when did you not come out and cause trouble at this time?
You're very disloyal. Next time you see how I ruin your good deeds!"
Xu Zhuo quickly made a dog-head life-saving move, and then said to Pearl with a wretched face:
"Oh, girl, don't be so serious!
You didn't say you wanted to debate, right? If you wanted to debate, then you definitely needed someone to cooperate with you..
Alright, alright, then you can give me a question. Let's chat and talk!"
Pearl girl 1 chest out:
"Alright, kid, you're really reckless. See how I kill you!
Let me ask you, did the chicken or the egg come first?"
" Er…Miss Zhu Zhu, you can't be right? The question you asked…really stumped me!" Xu Zhuo was instantly dumbfounded..
Pearl said with a smile:
Do you know what a debate is? Well, you can choose for yourself. You can choose whether the egg comes first or the chicken comes first..
As long as you have an argument of your own, then I can rebut your argument from another angle, leaving you with nothing to say at all.
Or, all of you here can defend Young Master Xu. You can put forward your own opinions. I can challenge all of you!"
These words were very domineering!
She was a girl who challenged everyone in the conference room!
But how do we answer that?
Although Hsu Shih-chang was extremely intelligent and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, he could not think of a perfect answer to Pearl's tricky question in time..
Seeing that everyone's expressions were the same as his, he felt very embarrassed, so he sighed and said:
"All right, all right, everybody stop talking..
Mademoiselle Pearl's question was a puzzle without solution.
You said chicken first, she has 1000 reasons against you.
You say eggs first, she has 10,000 reasons against you.
In that case, the question will never be settled..
And who has time to argue with Mademoiselle Pearl here for three days and nights now, when time is short? I give you my word!"
The entire place fell silent. Xu Zhuo rubbed his head in embarrassment and obediently retreated..
He had come to cooperate, or else Miss Pearl had said she wanted to find someone to argue with, and if no one came on stage, wouldn't it have been cold?
Actually, Xu Zhuo is also helping Miss Pearl in disguise..
Miss Pearl, who seemed to have a clear idea, winked at Xu Zhuo:
"Hee hee…you kid, you admit defeat, right?"
