Chapter 129: The Best Defense
Burst!
At a certain moment, I don't know when in the corner of the hall, there was a woman who was not good-looking, and she couldn't help but laugh when she heard the words of the old refiner, and the pleasant sound like a silver bell was like the most beautiful elf in the world, shaking people's hearts.
They all shifted their eyes, only to see a faint morbid flush floating on the mint-like pure and delicate face, the thick eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, the half-covered eyes seemed to be upside down and resentful, and the hair that followed the wind was like a waterfall hanging unruly water curtain, which made people want to have a kind of care and pity*.
Boom!
Seeing her beauty, even if the old man in the cloth shirt who had cut off the *, he quietly swallowed a mouthful of spit, the old face was embarrassed and red, and he glanced around, as if he was a thief, and saw that there was nothing unusual about the others, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pretended to be angry and said: Who is the demon who dares to trespass on the main hall of the Nortel Pavilion? Come! ”
"Wait!" Zhang Zhe, who had never been moved, immediately stopped urgently: Ancestor, maybe this matter is by no means as unbearable as imagined, this little Taoist friend may have other secrets, why don't you listen to her explanation? ”
"That's right! Right! Right! It may probably be estimated that he got lost and entered the main hall by mistake for a while, and the ancestor must not make a rash assertion, otherwise it will chill the disciple's heart. Guo Zhang, who has always spoken in an orderly manner, is also a little incoherent at the moment, looking at the woman with a look in his eyes as if he had found the shadow of the deceased **, staring at the woman in front of him.
"Yes! Ancestor, please think again. The rest of the people said in unison, lest they miss the opportunity.
"Hey! Since the elders have asked for it, this ancestor is not a ruthless person, so let's listen to this woman's explanation for the time being. Hearing everyone's request, the old man in the cloth shirt who was unwilling in his heart happened to borrow the way of the donkey down the slope, otherwise he could not guarantee whether he had the determination to kill the killer.
Seeing that the tense atmosphere had eased, Guo Zhang, who had seen the opportunity, immediately took a step forward, came to the front of the woman, and said, "Fellow Daoist, the elder in the Lower Nortel Pavilion, may I ask why you broke into the main hall for no reason?" ”
Cluck!
The woman smiled charmingly, her cherry lips hooked up like a wild rose** unruly, delicate as a hibiscus blooming, disgusted like rose drinking dew, seemingly casually glanced at Guo Zhang, but in fact, the rest of the people's expressions reacted, and also took it into her eyes, and said softly: No need to introduce, this holy girl has heard a little, I heard that everyone in Nortel Pavilion is reasonable, and it is not etiquette, but now it is just like this, it is too disappointing. ”
Hiss!
Guo Zhang frowned, and glanced sideways at Zhang Zhe and the others for unknown reasons, except for the strange look in his eyes, there was nothing wrong with it, and he wondered: Fellow Daoist, this is a bit too vain! Nortel Pavilion is a famous and decent family that has been inherited for thousands of years, how can it be generalized by some gossip? For example, tasting a cup of tea that seems to be bitter is just bitter first and then sweet, which makes people have an endless aftertaste. ”
"Really?" The woman's beautiful eyes shifted, looking at Zhang Zhe, who was looking forward to it, and pointed at him with her slender jade hand, and said to him: After a long absence, the deputy pavilion master is not good at talking and is good at calculation, I don't know if it is as undoubted as the rumors? ”
Cough Zhang Zhe's face was stunned, and then a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes, but there was no change on the surface, as if he didn't know, and chuckled: Daoyou, this is wrong! Rumors are rumors after all, so why should everything be taken seriously? As long as you are worthy of your heart, isn't it? ”
"Hey!" The woman undeniably tapped her head, looked directly at the white-robed old man who had never said a word from beginning to end, and said, "Elder Xu, I don't know when you will come out to see the little woman?" ”
What's going on?
It can't be a spy of other sects!
! I knew that Lao X wouldn't talk about secrets.
The white-robed old man standing in a corner, that is, Elder Xu in the woman's mouth, shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, crossed the crowd to the woman, and said suspiciously: Daoyou, what do you mean by this? The old man has been cultivating the real realm for nearly a thousand years, but he has never seen you, is he denying the wrong person? ”
"Hah!" Without waiting for the woman to return, Guo Zhang, who was on the side, took over the words and sneered: There are always some self-righteous people in the world, once they occupy a high position, they will ruthlessly cut off their close friends and relatives before, don't want friends like Taoist friends! Obviously, the last sentence was said to the woman, with a rebellious expression, if it weren't for the fact that there was only a trace of reason in his heart, I am afraid that Xu Shengchang would become a corpse in the next moment.
However, the woman didn't appreciate it at all, glanced at Guo Zhang strangely, shifted her gaze to Xu Shengchang's body, took out a hosta from the space ring, and arrived in front of Xu Shengchang, saying: Elder Xu, can you know this thing? ”
Xu Shengchang took the hosta in puzzlement, feeling the familiar breath it came, his pupils shrank, and he stared at the woman and said sharply: Daoyou, ask yourself if the old man has never had any grudges with you, why do you want to trouble my family? ”
"Humph! Family? The woman asked rhetorically, glanced at Xu Shengchang, whose eyes were gradually reddening, with disdain, and sneered: Elder Xu, there are some things that I don't need to say more, and you should know it! Now in front of outsiders, do you want the little woman to tell word by word? ”
"This" Xu Shengchang's body trembled, and a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind in vain, as if he thought of something unbearable, looked out of the window with dodgy eyes, and said with a self-deprecating smile: Old man, I think I can act right, stand upright, sit firmly, and be worthy of my conscience, if she didn't insist on going her own way, why did she end up like this, you go! ”
"A good sentence to walk right, stand upright, sit firmly, and be worthy of conscience! I'm afraid this is your ultimate defeat! But Master's last words let me tell you that the most wrong thing she did in her life was to know you, regret not listening to her parents at the beginning, and say goodbye! After the woman finished speaking, her ethereal delicate body flashed, and when she saw the figure again, only a shadow remained.
"The most wrong thing she has done in her life is to know you and know you" Listening to the words that swirled in his ears, Xu Shengchang's staggering body shook and fell to the ground, looking at the back that disappeared in front of him with pleading eyes, and he didn't understand why he who had been cut off * only because of a woman's words, and broke his heart that had been sealed for many years, and stood up and walked to the door of the main hall in despair, and suddenly turned to the old man in cloth shirt and the others: The rules of the Hongmeng War have changed a year later, and the people of the Qinggui Pavilion have sent more people, Otherwise, there will be an irreparable accident, and Hugh will blame the old man for not reminding him. ”
Then he flew and jumped, chasing in the direction where the woman disappeared, otherwise everything today would become his inner demon, at least his cultivation would stagnate, or at worst he would go mad, and he might even be scattered.
Ay!
The old man in the cloth shirt who was the first to return to his senses seemed to regret, and seemed to sigh helplessly, causing Zhang Zhe and the others to return to reality, and there are more important things to deal with in the eyeliner, maybe others don't know the importance of the Qinglong Sword, he can understand it well, not so much that it is a fairy weapon that everyone dreams of, but rather a fifth of a suit, if you add the Vermilion Bird Talisman, White Tiger Seal, Xuanwu (Armor) Armor, and Qilin Crown, I am afraid that people who have ascended to the realm will not be able to break through its defenses, So much so that the legendary immortals have to avoid its edge.
For thousands of years, if it weren't for the mutual suspicion of various sects, the cultivation realm at this time would definitely not be what it used to be, but people are selfish high-level animals, even if they are destroyed, they will never let those who have a heart reunite in the suit, and now I didn't expect the Qinglong Sword to be stolen, which has to arouse suspicion, especially the battle of Hongmeng a year later, if it is used by someone with a heart, the consequences can be imagined.
The cold eyes glanced at Zhang Zhe and the others, and said heavily: After careful consideration by the old man, the position of the pavilion master will be represented by Zhang Zhe for the time being, until the battle of Hongmeng a year later, if there is another difference in it, otherwise this ancestor will not mind having one more life in his hands, understand? ”
"Obey the orders of the ancestors." Everyone shouted in unison, especially the group of elders who secretly supported Zhang Zhe's ascension, and they all glanced at each other with joy, and they all saw the satisfaction in each other's eyes, just because they had waited for this day for too long, otherwise they would not have taken the opportunity to force the palace.
Of course, some people are happy and some people are sad!
The ugly faces of the opposing elders were like dead relatives, and they glanced at the old man in the cloth shirt who did not squint with a resentful expression, and one of them said boldly: The position of the pavilion master is the most important matter, and it must not be easy to recommend someone to the position, which may make it difficult for the disciples to convince the public, Wan Mou implored the ancestor to think twice. ”
"Elder Wan's words are very true, now that the position of the pavilion master has just been abolished, and a new lord will be established immediately, if it reaches the ears of the outer ears, I am afraid that it will cause a lot of gossip, and the ancestor must not act rashly."
"Presumptuous!" Seeing the obstruction of some people, Guo Zhang regained his previous wisdom, and said coldly: The old man's words are a word, how can he go back on his word, do you want to wait until the ancestor is not trustworthy? ”
"No!" Wan Xu's face changed, he knelt on the ground and looked up at the old man in the cloth shirt with an extremely unhappy expression, and said urgently: Ancestor, not to mention the many drawbacks of abolishing the old and establishing the new since ancient times, once it is revealed that the escalation of the contradiction is a small matter that endangers our personal interests, and the interests of the Nortel Pavilion that can be damaged are not to be underestimated! ”
The old man who was sitting in a corner coughed impatiently, looked at the old man in the cloth shirt and seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say anything, just like a sightseeing tourist looking around, sometimes contemplative, sometimes excited, if it wasn't for the different atmosphere, I was afraid that he would have laughed a long time ago.
But his actions did not escape the fiery eyes of the old man in the cloth shirt, and he waved his left hand forward, temporarily stopping the quarrel between Guo Zhang and the others, looking at the old man who didn't know what to think, and said: Elder Huo, do you have a high opinion? ”
"Ahh Huoyun, who seemed to be surprised, glanced at Zhang Zhe and the others who were looking at him with a puzzled face, and then looked at the old man in the cloth shirt, scratched his head and said, "Ancestor, what did you say just now?" I was thinking about how to improve the impurities in the refining materials, and I would like to ask the ancestor to talk about it again. ”
"You"
"Shut up!" The old man in the cloth shirt waved his hand to interrupt his words, and said without any expression on his face: "Elder Huo, just now this ancestor was asking you about the position of pavilion master in your free time, whether you can let Zhang Zhe take the position, what if you don't agree?" ”
"Oh?" Huoyun suddenly glanced at Guo Zhang and the others who were slightly eager, and looked at Zhang Zhe with a smile on the corner of his mouth, of course, when he touched the bottomless but seemed to see through the eyes of the people, he immediately made a decision in his heart, and hugged his fists: Ancestor, it is not difficult to say this matter, the key is to see how you choose. ”
"Good! Ben Lao Zu really didn't see the wrong person. The old man in the cloth shirt cheered happily, looked at the fire cloud with a little more smile in his eyes, and said appreciatively: Elder Huo, don't go around the bend, just say what to do? Otherwise, the longer the time, the smaller the chance of the Qinglong Sword being recovered, and this ancestor didn't want to be infamous after a thousand years. ”
"Yes!" Huoyun stood up unslowly, came to the center of the main hall, clasped his hands into fists, and said loudly: The ancients often said that when a husband is angry, blood is splashed five steps; The princes were angry and shed blood for thousands of miles; The Son of Heaven was angry, and millions of corpses were ambushed!
And my Nortel Pavilion is the same, the position of the pavilion master is not allowed to be violated by anyone, but if there is no prestige, I am afraid it is not enough to convince the public, according to the old man's will, the treasure of the pavilion is currently being stolen, it is better who can bring the Qinglong Sword back to the pavilion, then the position of the pavilion master is who's, otherwise even if you have the right to be the pavilion master, you can't dispatch the disciples of the pavilion, at best, it's just a puppet with a little more fame, I don't know what you think? ”
"Yes, it should be!" Without waiting for everyone's answer, the old man in the cloth shirt sitting in the first place, his eyes lit up after listening to Huoyun's words, and he immediately made a decision, one to suspend the expansion trend of Zhang Zhe and others, the second to buy some time for Yu Chu, and the third to find the whereabouts of the Qinglong Sword and hide some unknown secrets, which is almost a perfect plan to kill three birds with one stone.
But Guo Zhang and the others didn't do this, the resentment in their eyes was not concealed at all, and they glared angrily at Huoyun, who looked calm, if it weren't for the Nortel Pavilion needing him as a refining master, I am afraid that as soon as he walked out of the door of the main hall, people would die, just because his words almost ruined the interests of two-thirds.
Glancing at Huoyun with meaningful eyes, Zhang Zhe tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and said to the old man in the cloth shirt: "The words of the ancestor, I dare not agree with it, the disappearance of the treasure of the town pavilion is definitely not something that can be done by some small things, even the three major forces of Xifeng Tower, Nanyu Sect, and Donglei Mansion do not dare to say that they can easily steal it.
If there is no internal traitor, maybe the Nortel Pavilion can't go out of the mountain protection array, so you can exclude some forces that can't be on the table, as long as you find a reason to go to the ordinary and high-end tenant area, you may have something to gain and not necessarily, but the most important thing is that the mole, if you don't get rid of it for a day, the Nortel Pavilion will not be peaceful for a day! ”
