In the pavilion, nine people sat around a stone table.

However, strangely, no one spoke again.

However, Qin Shi found that the eight Dharma Protectors were all looking at him at this time, which made him very uncomfortable. I feel more and more that this ninth protector is unusual.

After a few minutes, Qin Shi really didn't understand the situation, and asked the Xuan Protector beside him in a low voice, "Elder Xuan, what the hell is going on?" ”

"Qin Shi, you'll know later, don't speak." The Xuan Protector smiled mysteriously and did not explain.

Qin Shi was very depressed in his heart, he was not interested in being watched by a group of people, coughed, and said, "I said a few Dharma Protectors, what are you doing here?" Do you have something to say, I don't understand your alternative way of communicating. ”

In the face of Qin Shi's question, most of the Dharma protectors smiled and did not speak.

Only the Moon Protector couldn't help it, and said with a smile: "Giggles, we're not communicating, we're observing our leader?" ”

"What? What leader? Qin Shi was taken aback, and even more puzzled.

"Our Yan Huangwei has always been eight Dharma protectors, even if someone surpasses us in strength, it will only replace the position of one Dharma protector, and it will still remain eight." The Moon Protector smiled and said, "You should know this rule, right?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Shi nodded: "I've heard you say it, but why do you want to add a Dharma protector this time?" ”

"Rules are dead, people are alive. In the past, the Dharma protectors of Yan Huang Wei had made another rule together, if there was a problem that Yan Huang Wei could not solve, then if the eight Dharma protectors agreed, a leader would be elected. The Moon Protector smiled: "However, if you want to become a leader, it is not an easy thing to do, and you must go through the test. Before that, he temporarily became the ninth protector. ”

Qin Shi frowned, glanced at the Dharma Protectors, and asked, "Then what do you mean, do you really want me to be the leader?" ”

It's just that they still didn't speak, which can be regarded as acquiescence.

Yan Huangwei's development over the years is not bad, and it is even stronger than a few decades ago.

However, this time the crisis of the blood clan was too stressful, and even the Dharma Protectors thought that they could not solve it.

Although Qin Shi has joined Yan Huangwei for the shortest time, the strength and potential he has shown are obvious to all.

Under such circumstances, the Eight Dharma Protectors decided to make an exception for him to become the Ninth Dharma Protector.

The Heavenly Protector said, "Qin Shi, we are very satisfied with your performance. This time you went to the EU, in fact, it was also a test, and you did a good job. While we do want you to be a leader, there are still some tests to be done, are you okay? ”

"Thanks to the love of several Dharma protectors, in fact, I never thought of becoming a leader." Qin Shi smiled bitterly and said, "Why don't you discuss it again?" I see that several disciples of the Dharma Protector are all young and promising, and they should be more suitable than me. ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the few people standing behind the Dharma Protector lit up, obviously tempted.

If they can become the leader of Yan Huangwei, it will be a very glorious thing for them.

However, many more people are smiling wryly. Obviously, they didn't take it seriously, after all, they knew that they couldn't compare to the people who could be unanimously recognized by the Dharma Protectors.

The Heavenly Protector smiled and said, "Qin Shi, you don't have to excuse yourself, we didn't say that we would definitely make you the leader, and now it's still just in the inspection period." Are you so confident, as if we are begging you to be the leader? ”

"That's not what I meant, okay then, I'll be this ninth protector for the time being. But if you find the right person, don't take me as a coolie. ”

Qin Shi was helpless, when it came to this, he would not know how to lift it if he excused himself.

The other Dharma Protectors all nodded, and they were all satisfied with Qin Shi's candidate.

"Protectors, isn't it time for us to get down to business?" Qin Shi hurriedly said, what he was most concerned about now was the big trouble of the blood clan.

The Heavenly Protector said, "We already have an idea about the matter of the Blood Clan. With the current strength of our Yan Huangwei, it is indeed difficult to compete. So, at this time, we have to look for foreign help. ”

"What foreign aid?" Qin Shi asked.

"Huaxia has been inherited for more than 5,000 years, and there are many capable people. Even now, there are still many ancient martial artists, and those ancient martial arts sects are a force to be reckoned with. Xuan Protector suddenly explained: "These ancient martial arts sects are very low-key on weekdays. However, if Huaxia is really in danger, they will not sit idly by. ”

Huang Lao also nodded: "Yes, at this time, it's time to invite those guys out of the mountain." ”

The Heavenly Protector looked at Qin Shi and said, "Qin Shi, you know the situation of the Blood Clan best, and this time you will send a trip from each of your sects." This was also a test for you at the time, no problem, right? ”

Hearing this, Qin Shi smiled bitterly, he had just come back, and he was going to be sent out to do things again, and he really couldn't stop.

However, Qin Shi was also quite interested in the ancient martial arts sect in China.

Moreover, listening to the meaning of several Dharma protectors, it is obvious that there are many top masters in these ancient martial arts sects, and he naturally wants to see them.

However, Qin Shi soon realized a problem: "I don't know the mountain gates of those sects, do you arrange a familiar person to lead the way?" ”

"You don't need to worry about this, this time there are also our apprentices. They all know the locations of some ancient martial arts sects, and they can show you the way when the time comes. ”

The Heavenly Protector had obviously been prepared, and this time they had brought their apprentices over, obviously having planned everything a long time ago.

After speaking, he looked at those apprentices and said, "During this time, you will follow Qin Shi, and you will do whatever he asks you to do." ”

"Yes."

Everyone nodded one after another, they didn't dare to refuse the order of the Heavenly Protector.

However, Qin Shi had a headache, these people were also the disciples of the Dharma Protector, and they were all afraid and arrogant.

With such a group of little brothers by his side, I am afraid that there will be friction.

He smiled wryly, and suddenly thought of the Moon Protector. Instead of going with this group of Dharma Protector disciples, it is better to let the Moon Dharma Protector accompany you.

Of course, this kind of thinking can only be taken for granted by Qin Shi. If it were someone else, I am afraid that I would have agreed a long time ago at this moment, after all, they are Dharma protectors, and you actually let her lead the way, which is too much of a trivial matter.

However, Qin Shi didn't care so much, and asked directly, "The Moon Protector doesn't seem to be fine, right?" Anyway, we're also acquaintances, so why don't we go to those ancient martial arts sects together? ”

When the Moon Protector heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

Qin Shi trusted her so much, she was naturally very happy. Moreover, after going out for a walk this time, she also felt that the outside was more exciting, and she didn't like to stay in this garden all the time.

It's just that she just wanted to agree, when the Heavenly Protector suddenly said, "Qin Shi, the Moon Protector doesn't have time to go with you, we have other things to do." ”

"What's the matter?" Qin Shi and the Moon Protector spoke in unison, and then glanced at each other, both of them full of doubts.

Suddenly, Qin Shi was even more suspicious, he didn't even know what was going on with the Moon Protector, you actually decided, this is too unreasonable, right?

The Heavenly Protector didn't feel embarrassed, and said, "In order to meet the crisis of the Blood Clan, several of our Dharma Protectors have to retreat for a period of time. Everyone knows about this matter, but the Moon Protector has just returned, so he hasn't received any news. ”

"It's true." Xuan Lao hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Since it was a serious matter, Qin Shi couldn't say anything more, so he had to agree.

And from now on, Qin Shi will have a group of followers.

Leaving the garden, a total of seven young people followed him, not leaving an inch.

Qin Shi took a step, they followed a step, Qin Shi stopped, and they all stopped together, just like his shadow.

"You ...... Don't follow me all the time. Qin Shi turned his head and said, "When I want to go to the Ancient Martial Sect, I will inform you." ”

However, they shook their heads in unison, still following behind Qin Shi's ass.

"I said, what are you doing here?" Qin Shi stopped again, turned around and said impatiently.

"The master told us to follow you all the time." It was one of the girls who spoke.

Of the seven, two were girls.

One of them is very young, with a small round face, and a watermelon head on his head, which is very cute. She was wearing a white school uniform, and no matter how she looked, she looked like a student who had not yet graduated from junior high school, and she couldn't connect with the ancient warriors at all.

And the other one is similar to Qin Shixiang, with a ponytail, tall and slender, and is a standard beauty.

It's just that this beauty's face is very cold, no matter who she sees, she looks cold, and she is the one who spoke just now.

Qin Shi said angrily: "I remember that the Heavenly Protector seems to have said that let you all listen to my arrangement, right?" ”

"That's what the master said." The beautiful woman was honest.

She is the apprentice of the Heavenly Protector, and she can be regarded as the eldest sister of this group of people, as soon as she speaks, the others will not refute.

Qin Shi said lightly: "In that case, now I ask you not to follow me, wait for my arrangement, this is no problem, right?" ”

"No problem." The beauty nodded.

"Alright then, you guys stay here and don't follow me anymore." After Qin Shi finished speaking, he was about to leave.

However, the beautiful woman stepped forward quickly and stopped in front of Qin Shi: "You don't even have our contact information, how can you find us when the time comes?" ”

Qin Shi frowned: "That's right, then leave a phone call." ”

"Wait, why don't we add WeChat to each other." Suddenly, a boy behind him proposed: "This time, we finally don't have to train with the master, and we also want to go out to play, since Qin Protector is not in a hurry, then we can just arrange our own time." When the time comes, if you want to summon us, notify us in the WeChat group, and you don't need to notify us one by one. ”

Qin Shi doesn't use many mobile phones, but he also has some understanding of the development of modern technology, and he naturally knows about WeChat.

Subsequently, everyone added WeChat to each other, and then set up a group before parting ways.
