Chapter 118: The Spirit of the Contract

Yu Ming put his luggage in the room, took a towel and pajamas to take a shower, and finally! He could have a good rest. The bathroom was very cold, there was no shower, only the bath water brought by the mountain spring. There was a gourd ladle in the pool. Yu Ming was not unfamiliar with this facility. The mountain spring water was poured on his body, which was so cool.

After taking a shower, he changed into comfortable pajamas. Yu Ming lighted a cigarette and sat at the door to dry his hair. Mandy and Baike were walking in chess under the tree. Seeing the two talking and laughing, Yu Ming felt a little jealous. But soon Yu Ming smiled. Black Phuket was practicing boxing, while the beautiful Maria took her clothes to take a shower and ended today's training.

After smoking, Yu Ming began to wander in the temple. The tiger was in the main hall, kneeling on the futon, with his eyes slightly closed and rosary. The Buddha statues in the temple were no longer there. The tiger did not open his eyes and said, "This temple has a history of a hundred years."

Yu Ming asked, "He is not called Lagu Temple, right?"

The tiger said: "It's right or not."

Yu Ming thought about it and said, "I understand."

"What is it?" asked the tiger.

"This temple has a century of history, so it is called an ancient temple, a temple that worships gods.

What does it mean? "Battleman, he created a temple name himself.

The tiger chuckled: "La means abandoned in Thai. Abandoned ancient temples dedicated to gods. It seems that you are better than them."

"kindness?"

The tiger did not explain, saying, "You should know the three major organizations in the world, right? Spider, Ice and Snow, which organization do you think is the strongest?"

Yu Ming said: "I heard that spiders and ice and snow are both very powerful."

"Yes." The tiger sighed softly: "What you don't know is that there was a conflict between the three of us organizations. We were completely defeated, and Ice and Snow tied with Spiders. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Although spiders do illegal things, they never use violence. They are all very smart and excellent. Ice and snow have rich experience and rarely use violence. Almost everyone in the independent investigator organization is very capable of fighting, almost everyone is familiar with guns and is proficient in fighting. But they are completely defeated by the spider. The independent investigator organization does not lack thugs, or the three organizations do not lack thugs. Spiders can command thugs when they need it. Ice and snow are appropriately involved in thugs, and independent investigators are both commanders and thugs. On the other hand, we are a single mind that is not as good as the spider joint. Compared with attack ability, the single ability is not as good as the thugs hired by spiders."

Yu Ming remembered the frog feet. When everyone was running, the spider easily sold the frog feet without leaving a trace. He himself, Ye Zhan and even the Fruit Alliance were all within their calculations. They did not use any force, and they did not need to use any force. Yu Ming said: "But there are also very excellent commanders in the thugs."

"Yes." said the tiger: "But no one obeys anyone. Hundreds of Ke, Phuket and Maria have the ability to command, but no one will completely obey their command. The special nature of the independent investigator organization determines that to win, one's ability is required to fight spiders or ice and snow."

"This is too high, right?"

"There are two mafia families in Canada. The Thirty Years Alliance. Once, what they did angered an independent investigator. He defeated them in just one hour." said the tiger. "He just changed a word in a document and caused a fire between the two sides. I have tested many people who participated in the selection on this issue. When they heard that they were going to attack the two mafia families, many people thought of assassination at the first time. Some people thought of hiring killers or mercenaries. Some people even measured their abilities and could complete assassination alone."

Yu Ming said: "I can't do it either."

"I just said you are better than them, and I didn't say you are very good. But you are still young." The tiger replied, "Do you know why I told you this?"

Yu Ming shook his head.

"I have been observing you for several months." The tiger said: "Don't get me wrong. Ye Zhan was recommended by me. You are Ye Zhan's recommendation. Of course, you will pay attention. Ye Zhan is the most energetic young man I have ever seen, but Ye Zhan has one of the biggest shortcomings. In Chinese, he is vengeful. He is more emotional, so he is not growing as I wish..." The tiger suddenly shut up.

A few seconds later, Mandy appeared: "Yu Ming, are you here? Hello Tiger. Yu Ming, they are going to hunt, ask if you are interested?"

"I won't go."

"Okay." Mandy said: "Goodbye bye."

The tiger nodded slightly, and Yu Ming replied: "Goodbye."

The tiger asked: "Do you know why I know someone is approaching?"

"The sound of the wind." Yu Ming said: "The sound of the wind is always blowing very frequently. If someone appears, it will inevitably change the sound of the wind."

"Yes. If Ye Zhan came to answer, he would say the voice, he thought it was his ears that heard the sound of the wind. And you thought it was a change in the sound of the wind. From this point of view, he belongs to the sentimental and you are rational." said the tiger: "Juliet...What do you think of Juliet?"

"I don't have any opinion." Yu Ming replied.

"Haha, is that?" The tiger thought for a while and said, "You go and do it."

Yu Ming nodded and returned to the backyard. The four of them were ready. Baike had several sharpened wooden sticks in his hand, which were suitable for throwing. Maria carried a bow and more than a dozen wooden arrows. Phuket was empty-handed, and Mandy carried a rope.

Mandy asked: "Yu Ming, you really won't go together?"

The other three looked at Yu Ming and did not send an invitation. Yu Ming nodded: "I eat a lot."

When we went to bed, at 5 pm, the four of us came back from hunting and were quite rewarding. There were tortoises, lizards, raw chickens, etc. The four of us seemed to have no interest in eating. We started to make a fire while talking and laughing. We thought we were preparing to have a bonfire party at night. Yu Ming continued to sleep, and at seven o'clock, he arrived at the restaurant on time.

A local man had prepared dinner, and only Yu Ming and Feng Hu sat there. There were not many dishes, mostly bacon, air-dried meat and other foods that did not require freshness.

The tiger looked at Yu Ming and smiled: "Does it feel like being isolated?"

"Yes." Yu Ming smiled at the dinner, not caring about it.

The tiger sighed: "This is exactly what I worry about. It is easy for young people to find common ground between themselves and others, but it is difficult to find other people's strengths. You already have a piece of pork, and you don't share it with people with vegetables, but eat pork with pork. It doesn't make sense."

Yu Ming said: "I have vegetables, but I didn't ask my pork friends to share it."

"But you have gained something." The tiger replied.

Yu Mingxiao put a round iron piece on the table with the number five written on it.

"I'm right." The tiger took the round iron sheet and said, "They don't pay attention to them at all, especially a room that has no attention. You are different, you realize that the room is a bit weird."

Yu Ming said: "Tiger, why do you keep praising me?"

"Haha, okay, I admit that I'm curious about why you are not proud." The tiger smiled: "But, being a too rational person is sometimes boring. Well... No, you will be rational when you are mentally alert. If you are mentally relaxed, you are also a sentimental person."

"Are you profiling me?" Yu Ming asked.

"The number of iron sheets is multiplied by two. You have passed the second round of test. I need to know you better and report your situation to the organizing committee truthfully." Menghu said: "But, can't you disclose the source of the iron sheets?"

Yu Ming asked: "Is it the rule?"

The tiger shook its head: "No, it's a plea. We hope to select the people we need in a fair and equitable way."

"I understand, I won't say it." Yu Ming smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to beg me. If you give me tens of thousands of dollars, I will definitely keep my mouth shut. Haha."

"…···" Tiger thought for a while and said, "I think it would be better for me to pay to seal it." Say it, I really took out a check book from my pocket and wrote a check worth 5,000 US dollars.

"..." Yu Ming looked at the check.

The tiger said: "This not only represents five thousand dollars, but also represents your credibility."

"Trade." Yu Ming received the check and clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you."

"Let's have a meal."

Yu Ming thanked Tiger because Tiger taught him a lesson. The simplest contract spirit. You can lie, you can nonsense. But reputation is your value. When you accept the additional assets you gain from your reputation, you must be responsible for your reputation. A liar also needs someone to trust, and this trust is your contract reputation.

"Thank you, the food is delicious." Yu Ming thanked the local chef, then turned on the flashlight and went to his room.

At the campfire, Mandy was wearing a cowboy hat and was playing a small guitar. She looked at Yu Ming. Yu Ming didn't pay attention to Mandy. Yu Ming arrived at his room and there was a plate of roasted raw chicken outside the door. There was also a note: "My craftsmanship, I hope you like it."

Yu Ming smiled and picked up the plate, raised his hand to Mandy. Mandy hummed a song and nodded. Sure enough, the test of contract reputation has come. Should he tell Mandy that there is a piece of iron in her room? Yu Ming sat on the steel wire bed, looking at the check of 5,000 US dollars, remembered the tiger's comments to Ye Zhan. He was vengeful. It seemed that the tiger was reminding himself.

Yu Ming received the check, and this is his bottom line. The tiger was right. He was not completely rational. Yu Ming knew that he was quite concerned about what happened to Mandy and Baike at night. Is it irrational. Is it love? This is impossible. Mandy should be considered a woman whom he met first and had been dating for a long time and wanted to have some relationship with him. Calm, calm... How could he just think about these things in a very important selection competition?
