Chapter 25: Conspiracy I
In the Ghost King Sect, after a period of chaos, the Ghost King who had been in a coma finally woke up again, and the surrounding people breathed a sigh of relief. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info especially Xiao Wan, his face was even pale, obviously he was quite frightened just now.
However, after the ghost king came to his senses, after glancing at the surrounding crowds, he quickly ordered everyone to retreat, leaving only Xiao Wan alone.
After everyone withdrew from the tent, Xiao Wan stepped forward and helped the ghost king sit up, and said in a low voice: "Sect Master, you just rest more, everything is with me." ”
The ghost king shook his head slowly, and then motioned for Xiao Wan to stretch out his head and whispered something in his ear.
Xiao Wan's face changed slightly, he turned his head to look at the Ghost King, seemed to be a little stunned, and said, "Sect Master, you ......"
The ghost king waved his hand, looking very tired, but at the same time he looked extremely resolute, Xiao Wan quickly understood his intentions, nodded silently, and then walked out quietly.
Soon only the badly injured ghost king was left in the tent, and he lay silently on the chair, and the surroundings suddenly fell silent at first, but after a while, the distant movements outside the tent slowly reached his ears.
In addition to the original sound of water, wind and the roar of the beasts in the forest, there are more sounds of people walking around in the canyon, people coming and going, but no one stays here. The voice gradually became a little noisy, and the centaurs of the other three factions began to move, leaving here, perhaps heading towards the distant wilderness.
In fact, although the heads of the four major sects of the Demon Sect are all here, firstly, the Demon Sect has a long history and there are many factions, and secondly, after Qiu Wangyu unified the Demon Sect, there were countless large and small sects that brought about the Qingyun Mountain War together this time, so the Demon Sect disciples scattered all over the place after the Great War were actually much more than in this valley. It's just that listening to the sound of panic and hasty running now, it still makes people feel desolate.
The Ghost King listened quietly, without much expression on his face, perhaps because he was too weak at the moment, and even this state of mind could no longer move him, or perhaps because he clearly knew that his limit was approaching, and his heart was also cold.
After a long while, when I felt that many people were already far away, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, and after a while, Xiao Wan's voice came, with an imperceptible awe, and said, "Please come in." ”
The curtain hanging from the tent was lifted, and after a while, two people walked in, except for Xiao Wan, who was one step behind, the person who walked in front was the Qinglong who was the head of the four holy envoys of the Demon Sect.
Qinglong went and returned, his face looked a little dignified, after the ghost king saw him, he seemed to be in good spirits, and he wanted to sit up, but he didn't know that his body was weak, and he struggled for a while and didn't sit up.
Xiao Wan was taken aback, and hurriedly ran over to support him, and then helped the ghost king to sit up straight, and took a soft cushion and put it under the ghost king, so that he could lean on.
Seeing the Ghost King like this, Qinglong also frowned, shook his head and smiled bitterly, walked up to the Ghost King, and said, "Old Sect Master, you are not good at recuperation, what is the matter with calling me over?" ”
The Ghost King smiled and said, "Sit." ”
Qinglong nodded, pulled over a stool, and sat down in front of the Ghost King.
The Ghost King looked at Qinglong, his voice was low but his words were still quite clear, and said, "Qinglong Venerable Envoy, do you and the other three Venerable Envoys plan to return to the temple next?" ”
Qinglong bowed his head and said, "Not bad." Yu Ji also said a while ago, since the sect leader's will has been issued, we should naturally obey it. ”
The ghost king sighed, noncommittal, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked Qinglong: "The old man has something unclear, and I want to ask the envoy." ”
Qinglong said: "Don't dare to be, the old sect master is my Holy Sect senior, just call me Qinglong's real name." Please speak. ”
The ghost king said: "The sect leader passed away suddenly, but before he died, why didn't he decide a successor?" ”
Qinglong was silent for a moment and said, "The old sect master, you are also the person present that day, and you should be clear in your heart. First, the sect leader has no descendants, and second, now that the Holy Sect is all together, except for the Qiu sect leader, who is heroic and heroic, the rest of the people are not enough to deter the heroes. No matter who is chosen to sit in this position, I am afraid that it will not be able to sit steadily, but it will cause trouble in vain, causing countless killings and disputes, so the sect leader refuses to pass on someone's position. ”
The Ghost King nodded slowly and said, "This is reasonable, the sect leader is eloquent and far-reaching, I must have seen this for a long time." I only hate the heavens and do not obey the wishes of the people, causing the heroes to die early and destroying the great cause of our holy religion. ”
Qinglong sighed lightly and said nothing.
The Ghost King said again: "Brother Qinglong, now that most of the factions of the Holy Sect have decided to return to the Barbarian Temple, you tell me the truth, after returning to the Temple, can you control the situation so that the sects will not have internal strife and fight with each other?" ”
Qinglong frowned and said, "Why does the old sect master ask knowingly. ”
The Ghost King sighed, "Is that going the old way again?" ”
Qinglong was silent for a moment and said, "The four of us have always followed the sect leader, and they have not joined the sect in the sect, and they are not able to preside over the overall situation to mediate disputes. But......" He raised his head and looked at the Ghost King, with a hint of expectation on his face, and said: "Old Sect Master, now that the Holy Sect is newly defeated, after the catastrophe, the only ones with the strongest strength are your Sect and the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, if you return to the Holy Temple together and advance and retreat together, there may be another situation." ”
The Ghost King frowned and pondered, then smiled bitterly and said, "Let's see when the time comes, in short, for the sake of the Holy Sect's foundation, with my old man in one day, I must do my best." ”
Qinglong stood up solemnly, bowed to the ghost king, and said: "Thank you to the old sect master, if the sect leader knows under the spring, he will definitely be amazed by the old sect master." ”
The Ghost King waved his hand and said, "Alas, Hugh Ti Sect Master, I am ashamed of him." By the way, I have asked you to come here privately today, and in addition to asking about this, there is another matter I want to talk to you about. ”
Qinglong said: "Old sect master, please speak." ”
The Ghost King said: "The four envoys of your Holy Sect have been following the sect leader for many years, and you are loyal before and after the saddle, and the old man also sees it in his eyes. It's just that the sect leader has already passed away, I wonder if you have any plans, Brother Qinglong? ”
Qinglong raised his eyebrows slightly, but then fell silent again, and said after a while: "I haven't thought about this now, but I don't know if the old sect master can teach me?" ”
The ghost king coughed a few times, and it seemed that he had been talking for a long time, which made him feel a little tired again, but he immediately cheered up, slowly stretched out his hand and gently grabbed Qinglong's right palm, stared at him for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Brother Qinglong, if you have the opportunity in the future, come to my Ghost King Sect, and my whole sect will greet you and respect you as guests." After a pause, his head turned slightly, he glanced at Xiao Wan beside him, and said: "Xiao Wan is my confidant, and his wisdom and talent are extraordinary, and the Ghost King Sect will be handed over to him in the future." If you believe my brother, he will definitely not disappoint you in time. ”
Qinglong glanced at Xiao Wan, thoughtful, and then took a deep breath and said to the ghost king: "Thank you for the good intentions of the old sect master, today's words are in my heart." However, the most important thing at the moment is to escort the sect master back to the temple first, and as for the rest, I will have the opportunity to ask the old sect master for benefits in the future. ”
The Ghost King nodded and said, "That's how it should be." ”
Qinglong stood up, bowed his hand to the ghost king, and said, "Farewell." As he spoke, he nodded to Xiao Wan who was standing aside, and then strode out of the tent.
After he left, Xiao Wan saw that the ghost king's expression suddenly decayed, and it seemed that the whole person lost his spirit in an instant, so he hurriedly helped the ghost king to lie down, knelt beside him, and said urgently: "Sect Master, are you okay?" ”
The Ghost King gasped a few times, raised his eyes to look at him, and said with some difficulty, "Let's go." ”
Xiao Wan nodded, but suddenly asked, "How to go?" Where to go? ”
The Ghost King was suddenly silent, just looked at him like that, and after a while, he whispered, "What do you think?" ”
Xiao Wan seemed to have thought about this for a long time, and said without hesitation at this moment: "We can't go back to the wilderness." ”
"Why?"
"The wilderness will be chaotic, and when the time comes, the heroes will rise together, and the internal strife and strife will definitely be a situation of a sea of blood, and we will not talk about the destruction of the sect in the past, at least it will be greatly damaged."
"Are you so sure?"
Xiao Wan took a deep breath, approached the Ghost King, lowered his voice, and said, "Now that the Sect Master is gone, the Holy Sect has no one who has a fixed peak. Although the four envoys are strong but have no power, the strength of the two gates of Hehuan and Changsheng is greatly damaged, and the qualifications of Sanmiao and Yuyang are not enough, I am afraid that there will be dissatisfaction in the door, or there will be internal friction. The Ten Thousand Poison Sect of the Poison God is the most powerful, but this person is too ambitious, and when he has the heart to covet the throne, he must not allow the side of my Ghost King Sect to rest for a while. If we return to the wilderness, I am afraid that the first thing the poison god will deal with is us. In addition, the imbalance of the power of the Holy Sect, and seeing the troubled times, it is the time when countless strange people and strange people in the sect are making waves, not to mention that there are still a lot of large and small sects that want to climb up ruthlessly. ”
The ghost king was silent, looked at it for a long time, and said: "If we don't return, won't we become the public enemy of the Holy Sect, and when the time comes, how to deal with it?" ”
Xiao Wan frowned, obviously he also had a headache about this, and after a while, he suddenly gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Drag!" ”
The corners of the ghost king's mouth curled, and a smile appeared on his old and withered face, and he seemed to be a little relieved when he looked at it.
Xiao Wan was shocked and said, "Sect Master, could it be you......"
The Ghost King shook his head at him, motioned for Xiao Wan to approach again, and then said in a low voice: "Later, you will lead everyone to the wilderness, walking slowly and slowly all the way, and at the same time secretly causing people to keep leaving, like people fleeing in panic." Those who go are the elite first, and they all order the foundation of Huqishan, which has been operating for many years, must not act rashly from now on. Besides, my life is not long ......"
Xiao Wan was shocked when he heard this, his face turned pale, and he said in shock: "Sect Master, why do you say this!" ”
