Chapter 237: Nobody
Wen Shushui once said in the Torture Hall that he wanted to gamble, and it was not so easy for Elder Taishang to make up his mind.
As long as the tripartite alliance of the Torture Hall, Xunlu Hall, and Shenbing Hall besieges and kills Baicaotang, then Hongdou will not be able to escape even if he has wings.
And once Hongdou lives and dies on the spot today, then no matter whether Luo Chuan is alive or dead, it is impossible for him to return to Ling Jian Sect.
Wen Shushui's calculations can be said to be interlocking and leaky, but he just forgot about a person.
Xie Kun.
Of course, this is not to say that Wen Shushui has not considered the possible situation of this Zhidan Elder at all, even if the latter has been in retreat in the Danfang for decades, and even many disciples of the Hundred Grass Hall have never seen his true face.
He just didn't expect that from the very beginning, Xie Kun put on a posture of breaking the net.
From a certain point of view, today's Baicao Hall has reached the point of life and death, and Xie Kun, as the only elder of the Baicao Hall, is of course understandable and natural to do so.
But, even if you pay for it, do you not hesitate to pay for it?
Even if you drag the entire Ling Jian Sect to accompany you to the funeral, will you still die?
Xie Kun's answer is yes.
Even if he was under the umbrella of Xu Cheng, Xu Huaiqiu, Du Fang and Chen An at this time, his face did not change, he was peaceful, and he didn't even have a sword, as if he was just a light and breezy spectator.
This is not quite consistent with Xie Kun's usual hot temper, and it is also completely different from the impatience he had with these people in Shuo Mingfeng before.
On the contrary, Xie Kun at this time seemed unusually calm.
It's like alchemy, and the heart is like stopping water.
The two sides confronted each other in silence, the terrifying star power coercion made it difficult for all the disciples present to even breathe, and everyone's hearts were tensed, not knowing when it would break.
And even in such a situation, Wen Shushui still did not give the order to launch a strong attack.
What is he waiting for?
Doesn't he know that with every additional breath of time, his chances of victory will be smaller?
The odds of victory here do not refer to the success or failure of the confrontation between the two armies, but the possibility that the Supreme Elder may appear at any time to settle the dispute.
If something is abnormal, there must be a demon.
Xie Kun and Xie Changjing's uncle and nephew didn't know what Wen Shuishui was planning, but since the other party was slow to move, of course he couldn't move.
Time passed seemingly meaninglessly, about half a pillar of incense or so, just when everyone was about to be forced to collapse by this invisible pressure, finally three things happened at the same time, breaking the deadlock on the field.
The first two events can be seen as the same thing, and there is some kind of causal relationship, and the time interval between them is also very short.
The most important thing is that both of these things happen in the open place, so they can be seen by everyone.
First, it was Wen Shuishui who suddenly held his hand and saluted several big people in mid-air.
"Deputy Head Chen, the three elders, next, please leave it to you. ”
As Wen Shuishui's words fell, the second thing happened.
I saw that the three bright orange starlight shone brightly in an instant, and landed beside Xie Kun in no particular order, as if it had become a light curtain cage, trapping him in the middle.
It was the Ling Sword Sect's extremely prestigious set of swordsmanship, called, Imprisoned Dragon!
The so-called harmony sword technique is actually similar to the sword array that Luo Chuan saw in the Moon Shadow Secret Realm, or it can simply be regarded as an extremely simplified version of the sword array.
Although the dragon trapping technique jointly performed by Xu Cheng and the three of them this time is definitely not as powerful as the heaven and earth net, it is at least much stronger than Feng Xiao's painting the earth as a prison.
It can also be seen from the choice of the three elders that they did not want to kill Xie Kun, but simply to trap him.
Xie Kun raised his head, looked at the starlight surrounding him, and secretly clenched a pill in his sleeve, ready to shoot at any time.
From a certain point of view, the civil war of Ling Jian Sect had broken out at this moment, but what was strange was that it was clear that the biggest reliance of the Hundred Grass Sect had been contained by the three elders, and Wen Shushui still did not make a gesture to attack.
This is very counterintuitive.
If he didn't plan to attack the whole army at this time, then what was the point of letting the three elders strike in advance?
However, it turns out that every move made by Wen Shushui has its own reason, even if no one present can understand it.
Because the third thing happens in the shadows.
At the same time that Xu Cheng, Xu Huaiqiu, and Du Fang's three elders joined forces to perform the cage technique, and Xie Kun's mind was all distracted, a figure quietly retreated from the side of the hundred grass hall disciples, and walked towards the Danfang unconsciously.
This man's name is Li Qing.
To the vast majority of the Hundred Grass Hall disciples, this name seemed very unfamiliar, and if it wasn't for a deliberate reminder, they wouldn't even know that there was such a person in the hall.
Even if it is Xie Changjing, I am afraid it will be difficult to match this name with himself for a while.
But if it is based on his appearance, maybe nine out of ten of the disciples of Baicaotang know him.
Because the sentence that is now resounding in the Qingzhou cultivation circles, "Baicao Luochuan, domineering and awe-inspiring! majestic, famous and shocking rivers and mountains", was first proposed by him.
Yes, Li Qing is one of the four little medicine boys who served Steward Kong back then, and was later adopted by Luochuan and has always been known as Luochuan's first dogleg.
After the bloody case on Chinese New Year's Eve, Luo Chuan broke into the torture hall, destroyed the Li family, killed Zhao Hao, and finally Wen Shushui acted as if nothing had happened, not only often came to Baicao Hall to visit the door, played several happy cards with red beans, but also mixed with many disciples of Baicao Hall, of course, he was not to befriend Luo Chuan, turn the fight into a jade drape, but for today!
Li Qing is a shadow son that Wen Shushui received from Baicaotang during the New Year!
Wen Suishui valued Li Qing at the beginning, just because the other party was clever enough, ambitious, and knew how to survive, and more importantly, he was not treated well in Baicaotang.
The reason is simple, he used to be the person in charge of Kong.
Although he climbed the towering tree of Luochuan after the fall of Steward Kong, it was obvious that Luochuan did not appreciate this kind of wall-grass nature of refuge, so to this day, Li Qing is still just a little medicine boy, and people don't even bother to ask his name.
At the time of the death of Steward Kong, Li Qing could choose to abandon the darkness and turn to the light without hesitation, and vigorously praised Luo Chuan, so when Luo Chuan became the public enemy of the entire Qingzhou, he would naturally be able to do things for Wen Shuishui neatly.
What's more, what he has to do today, with righteousness, is the key to the life and death of the entire Ling Sword Sect, and since Wen Shushui is willing to give him such an important task, it itself shows his trust in him.
His task was very simple, that is, to take advantage of the fact that the attention of all the disciples of the Hundred Grass Hall was attracted by Wen Weishui, and to find Hongdou and kill her while Elder Xie was being held back by Xu Cheng and the others.
At this moment, what is in front of Baicaotang is already a dead end.
Vice President Chen is suffering from the loss of a child, and it is impossible to let go of red beans.
The Torture Hall, Xunlu Hall, Shenbing Hall and Baicao Hall have always had old grudges, and in the face of such a God-given opportunity, they naturally will not let go easily.
On the other side, a group of Baicaotang disciples led by Xie Changjing swore to defend Luo Chuan's honor to the death, and of course it was impossible to bow to Wen Shushui and the others.
As for Xie Kun, Hongdou is his only apprentice, and in the face of Xu Cheng and the others' madness, it is already very clear how he will choose.
Therefore, if the red bean does not die, Baicaotang will die today.
Ling Jianzong was about to destroy the Great Wall.
From this point of view, Li Qing's existence has become the biggest variable in this Ling Jian Sect's civil strife.
If he succeeds, from a small point of view, he will give an explanation to the Qingzhou cultivation world, and an explanation to Deputy Head Chen, saving the lives of thousands of people in Baicaotang.
From a big point of view, that is to preserve the foundation of Ling Jian Sect!
It has maintained the stability and peace of the entire Qingzhou cultivation community!
Such a big burden finally fell on the body of a little medicine boy, and it was the most inconspicuous one in the entire Baicaotang, I have to say that Wen Shushui was really crazy enough and gambled big enough.
But it was precisely because of his surprise in the dark chess hand that everyone did not guess it, so that Li Qing could enter the Danfang smoothly.
At this time, Li Qing seemed nervous and excited, and he knew very well in his heart that as long as he did this, he would be able to rise steadily from now on.
In the future, there will be a huge Qingzhou, and if someone mentions the name Li Qing, who can not know, who can not know?
This is a huge opportunity.
An opportunity to become famous all over the world and live forever!
Although Li Qing is just a small medicine boy, he has a real cultivation of the Descending Star Realm, of course, this is given to him by Wen Shushui, in order to be able to exert a miraculous effect that he will be able to do unexpectedly one day.
Like now.
On the contrary, although Hongdou had already obtained the qualification of a pharmacist in the Medicine King Tower, she had never descended to the star, which gave Li Qing an opportunity to take advantage of.
After a hundred breaths, Li Qing came to the door of an alchemy room with a familiar car, took a deep breath, and then reached out fiercely and slapped it on the lintel.
"Senior Sister Hongdou, it's not good!
The next moment, the wooden door opened silently, and Hongdou stood away from Li Qingsanzhang, frowning and asking, "What happened?"
Li Qing hurriedly said: "Elder Xu of the Torture Hall, Elder Xu of the Xunlu Hall, and Elder Du of the Divine Soldier Hall joined forces to beat Elder Xie to a serious injury, Senior Sister Hongdou, go and take a look!"
As he spoke, Li Qing naturally prepared to go over and pull Hongdou's wrist, but was gently dodged by the latter.
"What about the others?"
Red Bean asked suspiciously.
"Oh, it's too late to explain, senior sister, come with me!" Li Qing took two more steps forward with great eagerness.
And Hongdou hurriedly stepped back, at this time she had already seen that the other party was harboring evil intentions, and immediately pinched a spirit pill in her hand, and was ready to take it.
"Who sent you?"
Seeing this, Li Qing dared to delay any longer, and he didn't bother to play with him anymore, so he suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and stabbed at the red bean without warning!
"Go down and ask Hades!"
This sword didn't come quickly, but Li Qing had already swung a layer of scarlet bright starlight on the sword, stabbing Hongdou's eyes with slight pain.
What's more, Li Qing at this time was so close to the red bean that the red bean didn't even have time to take the pill in his hand, and it was impossible to avoid this killing sword.
The corners of Li Qing's mouth had even bloomed into a bright smile in advance, as if he could see that he had become a hero of the sect and accepted the worship of all the disciples.
However, this hope lasted only a brief moment before it was shattered.
Because the sword in his hand did not stab the red bean, but smashed it to the ground with his entire right arm.
This accident happened so quickly that Li Qing didn't even react for a while, and he didn't feel the slightest pain, he subconsciously turned his head, looked at the figure standing behind him, and slowly widened his eyes.
It was a man who had never even expected the passing of the water.
He was also a person who had been forgotten by almost the entire Ling Sword Sect.
She doesn't belong to any of the three mountains and five halls, but she can be regarded as one of Luo Chuan's few friends.
What's more, her father is the Star Palace, Qin Jiang.
Her name is Qin Weiyang.
