Chapter 44: Finding a Substitute
Wu Yuxing asked in the Fire Dragon Palace, "Has Huode left the island?" ”
Dongfang Crane replied: "Tell the island owner, Huo Dejun has already set off. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After Wu Yuxing heard the news that Huo Dejun had left the island, he suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart, so a strong feeling of thinking about his son emerged again, because he hadn't seen his son for more than ten years, he didn't know what his son had grown up to, how tall he was, how he lived alone, thinking that all he had been thinking about in the bottom of the Tai Valley for more than ten years was revenge, and when he hadn't thought of his family at all, he couldn't help but feel depressed again, and he was just bent on killing Chang Shengtian. At that time, he was already carried away by hatred, and when Huo Dejun came back, he could reunite as a family, thinking of this, he suddenly made an astonishing decision, that is, after reuniting with his son, he went to Shangfeng Mountain to find the sword soul Chang Shengtian for revenge, because at this time, Wu Umbrella Xing's desire for family affection is far better than the hatred of revenge, because the powerful Sizi emotions are instinctively burst out from the depths of his heart, and human power is categorically unable to fight, thinking of this, Wu Umbrella Xing said with an extremely serious expression: "This seat, made a temporary decision, that is, after Huo De returned, he would kill the sword soul Chang Shengtian in Shangfeng Mountain. ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw Qiu Baitian furious, slammed the table, the tables and chairs were shattered, and asked with the same serious expression: "Wu Yuxing, what did you say?" You are a little too much, that day you want to form an alliance with me to go to Fengshan to kill Chang Shengtian, I agreed, and then you asked me to accompany you back to the Fire Island first, and then kill Chang Shengtian on Fengshan, I also agreed, and now you have to wait for your son to come back, and then go to Fengshan to kill Chang Shengtian, this time I will never agree, in my opinion, you are delaying time in the future, you are also one of the five great swordsmen, haven't you heard of a wise saying? That is, it is difficult to start everything, it is difficult to delay the middle, and it is difficult to end in the end...... I really don't understand your behavior at this moment, Wu Umbrella Xing? ”
Wu Yuxing smiled calmly: "After the reunion between this seat and Tian'er, I promise to climb Fengshan with you, kill Chang Shengtian, and let you sit in the position of the head of the Fengshan faction, this seat promises you." ”
"Shut up, Wu Yuxing, if your son doesn't come back for the rest of his life, then won't we be able to go to Fengshan for the rest of our lives? I really doubt that your martial arts have been completely lost, and your martial arts were abolished by Chang Shengtian more than ten years ago, and the purpose of your alliance with me is to let me protect your safety along the way, and then send you back to Agni Island safely, what, now that you are on your own territory, can you do whatever you want? I tell you Wu Umbrella Xing, don't fool me, or I will sink your Fire Island before killing Maple Mountain. Qiu Baitian was furious and asked Wu Yuxing.
When he heard this, Dongfang He couldn't help but be shocked, and suddenly thought, yes, in terms of Wu Umbrella Xing's temperament, when he first returned to Agni Fire Island, he could endure it if he was disrespectful to him like Keeper B, and I replaced him as the owner of this Fire Island, he could still endure it, and finally I framed Huo Dejun for such a big crime, he still endured it, if it was changed to the Sword Demon Wu Umbrella Line more than ten years ago, then those of us who were disrespectful to him would have died hundreds of times a thousand times, presumably there must be variables in this, If Wu Umbrella is really a failure, then I will definitely kill Wu Umbrella with my own hands and regain the position of the island master.
But since Dongfang Crane has been able to succeed repeatedly in the several competitions on Fire Island, he will not be a person who is in a hurry, not calm, and simple, so he is still watching the changes on the sidelines, waiting for the opportunity, ready to make a move at any time.
Wu Yuxing looked at Qiu Baitian calmly and did not make any reply.
Qiu Baitian saw that Wu Umbrella was silent, as if he didn't hear himself speak, so he was even more angry, so he flew up and hit Wu Umbrella Xing with a palm, Wu Umbrella Xing jumped up lightly from the throne, dodged this palm, and secretly said in his heart, this Qiu Baitian is worthy of being Chang Shengtian's senior brother, his two martial arts, moves, and routines are basically the same, they are all splitting the wind palm method, but this seat is different.
I saw Wu Yuxing blurt out: "Burning corpse palm." ”
When Qiu Baitian saw this palm coming towards him, he also shouted: "Splitting the wind palm." Then he caught the palm, at this time Qiu Baitian only felt that his palm and arm had a feeling like being burned by the fire, extremely unbearable, this burning pain slowly rushed to his heart, thinking, if he didn't close his palm, then he would definitely be very seriously injured, so he decisively closed his palm, a side flash, but when he closed the palm, he was slapped hard by Wu Yuxing, only to see Qiu Baitian scream and fall to the ground.
Dongfang Crane saw all this in his eyes, and couldn't help but be disappointed, and the dream in his heart couldn't help but be shattered!
Wu Yuxing looked at Qiu Baitian on the ground and said calmly: "Qiu Baitian, forty years ago, this martial arts would definitely not be your opponent, but now you are lagging behind!" The reason is that in the past forty years, you have failed to move forward, your pace has stopped, and you have spent decades in a drowsy state, while others have been practicing martial arts to catch up with you in these decades. No, for more than ten years, this seat has been painstakingly studying the Flame Palm, so that it has reached a new realm, a new palm technique, the Flame Burning Palm, and you? Think about it and think about it, what you've been doing over the past few decades. What was accomplished? ”
Qiu Baitian was still sitting on the ground at this time, trying to recall what meaningful things he had done in the past few decades, but he didn't think about it for a long time, he couldn't think of it at all, he only thought that he was tied to a thousand-year-old tree by a black gold treasure chain, he couldn't move, and he could only eat flying insects and moths all day long. Qiu Baitian hated his junior brother Sword Soul Chang Shengtian even more, only to see that Qiu Baitian's eyes seemed to flash with tears, and then slowly stood up from the ground, and said in a low mood: "Okay! Wu Umbrella Line, it's up to you to decide! ”
"Hahaha, okay, Qiu Baitian, the so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, you have suffered all external injuries, and you will heal in a few days." Wu Yuxing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
So Qiu Baitian left the Fire Dragon Hall alone and sadly.
Wu Umbrella Xing sat down on the throne again and asked, "Dongfang Crane, what does Agni Island rely on to maintain the daily expenses on the island now?" ”
Dongfang Crane immediately replied: "Tell the island owner, there is not much change from when the island owner left the island more than ten years ago, or rely on the fishing boats that fish nearby to pass through the waters of Agni Island to collect fishing fees, as well as collect protection fees from the towns near Agni Island, as well as smuggling official salt and tea, etc., in addition, his subordinates have also added a few businesses, that is, to help the government sweep horse thieves, level mountain thieves, destroy sea bandits, and kill corrupt officials......
Hearing this, Wu Umbrella interrupted Dongfang Crane's words and asked, "Oh? Wait, the people of the government hired you to kill corrupt officials? ”
Dongfang Crane explained: "It's not like this, the money that killed corrupt officials is all pieced together by the people who have been persecuted, and the thieves in the nearby towns have been swept away by the Fire Island, so the people live and work in peace and contentment, but the corrupt officials in the nearby towns are really killed repeatedly, so the current Agni Island is also considered to be a rich party, and now the Dongchang is very rampant, and the court also turns a blind eye to it, so the corrupt officials we kill are all under the protection of the Dongchang to do whatever they want." ”
After hearing this, Wu Yuxing praised with great satisfaction: "The leaders of the East Factory are all eunuchs, and the eunuchs are not normal people, how can they know what we want?" Eastern Protector, you have done a good job, continue to do so in the future, and from today onwards, this seat will promote you to the position of deputy master of Fire Island. ”
After hearing this, Dongfang Crane thought to himself, why did Wu Umbrella suddenly trust him so much, so he didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately knelt down on one knee, pretending to be flattered and replied: "Thank you for the island owner's appreciation, my subordinates will definitely not disappoint the island owner's expectations of his subordinates, and they will do their best for the island owner, and they will die." ”
So Wu Umbrella Xing and Dongfang Crane discussed the prospect and future of Fire Island.
On this day, Huo Dejun came to a small county town, the name of this small county town is Jixiang City, Huo Dejun was walking on the street at this time, and suddenly heard a noisy sound in front of him, there were many onlookers, so Huo Dejun was also crowded in the crowd, it turned out that there was a young man who blocked the prefect's marching procession, only to hear the prefect shouting anxiously in the sedan chair: "What nonsense hurry up, the official but time is money, you say it quickly, the official has asked you, you just say it quickly, but now you don't say it." , I can't afford to kneel for a long time! It's not a way to always kneel like this, let's talk about it! Listen! It's really a rush to death! Ay! ”
I saw that the young man kneeling on the ground was in his twenties, his facial features were quite upright, revealing an anxious look, and finally said: "Adult, it's not the villain who is making trouble here, the villain has a hard time, otherwise the villain wouldn't be able to kneel here, so the seriousness of the matter should be imaginable." ”
The prefect smiled bitterly: "Young man, the official just said, listen to the official, if you have any troubles, just say it, the official will definitely make the decision for you, get up and speak quickly." ”
"My lord, if the villain tells the truth on this street, then I'm afraid that our small city will be turned upside down, and we must meet separately." The young man replied, still on his knees.
"Okay, hurry up and follow the official back to the prefect's yamen and get up the sedan chair." The prefect ordered.
So the young man followed the team of the government, and the crowd saw that there was no excitement to see, so they dispersed one after another.
