Chapter 283: Before Leaving
"And what's going on with this auction? A snake molt, that's all?"
The invitation clearly prints the contents of the auction. There are only four very simple words in the display of goods, a snake moult.
What kind of snake moult is actually going to be exhibited at auction, and this auction is only such a commodity? This is equivalent to saying that the auction is for this snake molt, and what kind of secret is there in this snake molt?
Everyone turned their heads to each other, seeing that the conference room had a tendency to open again, Emperor Fenghe coughed.
"Let's not look into this yet, our immediate priority now is to prepare an armistice agreement. ”
The envoys of the Eastern Earth are still waiting in the side room, but they have studied the auction here, and there is really no distinction between primary and secondary.
"It's just an auction held by a demon, it's not worth studying!"
"That's it, it's just that it's only auctioning one item, and I'm embarrassed to bring this content here!"
"Don't talk about it, which one did we just talk about?"
"Compensation from the East Turkish side. ”
"Yes, yes, let's continue to ......"
The heads of state, knowing the priorities, put away their invitations one after another, and continued to discuss the matter of peace talks, and did not seem to take these small episodes to heart.
Three months later.
It's been a year since the last auction, and it's the same summer day. Emperor Fenghe looked at these familiar faces in the annex with his hands in his sleeves and was silent.
No more than the chaos of the previous year, this time the auction was announced very early, and the nobles had plenty of time to make arrangements for the end of the war before they came, so the streets were bustling with people, but they did not cause the congested scene before. But that doesn't mean that the number of people attending the auction this time is lower than the last one. Just looking at the fact that there is still more than a week before the auction opens, the annexes everywhere are already full of people, and there are even more people entering from outside the city.
The people who met in the lobby of the annex looked at each other at this time. Emperor Fenghe met no one else here, it was the king of Cisse, Zuohu, and several monarchs of other countries.
"I haven't seen you for a few months, and the King of Zhongshan is still so heroic and extraordinary!"
"Where, King Cisse is also in good spirits, and it seems that he is in a good mood!"
Zuo Hu didn't meet the embarrassment of acquaintances for half a minute, and the two politely said a few words. There was King Cisse at the beginning, and the lords of other countries also chimed in.
"I heard that the Jiuxia Sect has changed masters. When such a big thing happens, the King of Cisse still has the leisure to come to my Zhongshan to visit a little-known auction?"
The news of the change of sect leader of the Jiuxia Sect reached Zhongshan more than a month ago. It is said that the successor to the throne is not Lan Ya's two closed disciples, but a figure who has never appeared, and is said to be her niece. But everyone knows that Lan Ya only admits to the outside world the brother Lan Sili, the sect leader of the Phantom Sect, and Lan Sili has not married a wife and had children although he is over 40 years old, and he only has a righteous daughter under his knees.
Actually let her niece, who is not related by blood, or even a newcomer who has not practiced in the Jiuxia Sect, succeed the sect master, what is this woman thinking? Why did she suddenly abdicate?
Zuo Hu himself didn't know what this person wanted to do when he suddenly made such a move. With the position of the Jiuxia Sect in Xisai, the state naturally cannot intervene, but it cannot allow the possible division of such an important capital due to internal problems. In the past month, he has also turned his hair gray, but Lan Ya did not appreciate the king's hard work at all, and the next sentence of 'The new successor of the Jiuxia Sect, please treat him kindly' disappeared completely.
It's just that although they are in a hurry at home, they naturally can't tell outsiders about this kind of thing.
"The major sects are independent of the political arena, and Jiuxia has a special status, so it is not something that the state can interfere with. And before the change of sect master, the previous sect master also informed me, since it was a matter within their sect, it was naturally inconvenient for me to ask. ”
Zuo Hu's attitude is casual and natural, and he can't see anything at all.
"It's good that your country has nothing to do!"
Of course, Emperor Fenghe also understood that the other party couldn't really tell him anything, so he didn't ask too much.
"The King of Zhongshan is here to stay here?" said a lord of the country.
"Exactly, I just didn't expect to meet you, it's a real blessing!"
"That's it, even the monarch of our country has to share an annex with other people, this Gun Sect really doesn't know how to be sophisticated!" said the other king.
What he said seemed to be very casual, but in fact, he was alluding to the fact that the arrangement of the Gun Sect was really inferior. Isn't it true that the leaders of many countries are placed in one residence as ordinary people?
"In the eyes of the demons, what is the difference between us kings and ordinary people?" said the king who had spoken earlier.
"No matter how you say it, the Gun Sect is also a sect in Zhongshan, but it is just a separate altar, and it actually firmly controls this Heze City in your hands, doesn't your country care about it?"
Of course, Zuo Hu also has a lot of opinions about this. As the king of one of the three most powerful kingdoms in the human world, he is always in front of him and behind him. And this time when he came to the auction in Heze, the Gun Sect actually stopped his honor guard outside the city and did not allow him to enter, and only allowed him to add two entourages. That's all, the residence arranged for him is still in the same place as the kings of other countries! Since he became the prince, Zuohu has never tasted the treatment of sharing an annex with others when he goes out, and the noisy and noisy people in the mess simply upset him.
"Everyone has said that this is a sect built by demons, how can I be the monarch of a human country!" Seeing what a few people were going to say, Emperor Fenghe hurriedly waved his hand. "Set up the carriage and horses, I'm tired on the way, go and rest first. ”
His attendants were ordered to leave the annex. Seeing that the people had the intention of leaving, Zuohu and several other kings did not force them to stay, and a few more polite words were dispersed.
When he went upstairs, he couldn't see the other kings, so Xiao Jing followed the Emperor Fenghe to the room on the top floor and served tea for him. He hesitated, but still spoke:
"Your Majesty is not annoyed?"
"What's annoying?" said Emperor Fenghe as he drank water.
What King Cisse said was not unreasonable. Xiao Jing pondered. "No matter how you say it, the Gun Sect is also my Zhongshan sect, and it occupies the territory of my Zhongshan. Although the state does not interfere in the internal affairs of these sects, the sects cannot be above the state. This auction not only replaced our soldiers defending the city with people from his spear sect, but even His Majesty's entourage had to be checked. The other party knows His Majesty's identity this time, and it is no better than the last time we came in disguise, so they still arranged His Majesty and other monarchs in the same annex, which is ......."
"Don't take me as a king too seriously, do you?"
Xiao Jing did not speak. Because that's what he thinks, and Sato and the other kings think the same way.
"I ask you," compared to the general who was not angry in his heart, the Emperor Fenghe had a calm expression. "Is there any need for him to take us into account?"
Xiao Jing was stunned.
"The strength of that Dongtu monster, General Xiao, you have a deeper understanding than me. ”
Speaking of soul beasts, Xiao Jing's face suddenly turned pale.
Months had passed since that massacre, but Xiao Jing still often dreamed of that hellish scene at night. There was no blood, no corpses, only heart-rending wails and the cries of countless resentful spirits. It was the power that defeated people from the heart, and no one could stand alone in front of such a huge monster.
Most of the soldiers who have retired from the front line have been discharged, and they have been traumatized and will have a hard time recovering from them in this life. The reason why Xiao Jing can still hold the position of general is not only because he is determined, but more importantly, after returning from the front line, he received dozens of days of treatment from the palace's senior fog master, and only then did he recover from his mental turmoil. Circling this way, the mention of soul beasts now still makes him tremble uncontrollably.
It was also because the riot of the soul beasts that day was too intense, and the battlefields on the eastern soil side were far away, Xiao Jing actually didn't know that the driving force behind the massacre behind the massacre was actually Lan Ya, the former sect leader of the Jiuxia Sect. Otherwise, even if she has a vital position in Cisse, the heads of state will never let go of this woman.
"A monster that is impossible to deal with in the whole human world, but it has been solved by one person. ”
Yes, when the young lady of the Seven Star Sect told him that the problem of the soul beast had been solved, he couldn't even believe it for a long time.
That mountain-like behemoth, everyone was nothing more than a cloud in front of it. Such a terrifying monster, the flood beast is no more than Erer, it is not an exaggeration to say that it came from hell. It's such a terrible thing, that Spear Sect's sect master has really solved it?
A person, a person who can destroy the monsters of the human world only for a short time, how can he take the monarchs of these countries in his eyes? Not to mention that this person has never regarded human beings as equals.
"This annex is obviously much more luxurious than the ordinary pavilion, and it is already respectful to let us live in such a place, what more can we ask for. "Emperor Fenghe drank tea, and his heart was like water.
Nancheng, the headquarters of the Gun Sect.
At this time, the Gun Sect was no longer what it was when it was first established, and there were disciples dressed in white who came and went. From a distance, there are figures shaking everywhere in the huge headquarters, they are either practicing the Fa or doing all kinds of their own work, and people come and go.
Although there seems to be nothing to do with the Gun Sect in the war that has just ended, the leaders of the main sects in the country actually know who is the one who will resolve the biggest crisis overnight, and the status of the Gun Sect has also risen, and it has even ranked above the first major sect, the Seven Star Sect. Therefore, the disciples are also enthusiastic, and they are all very interested in doing their own things.
Bi Lingxiao looked at the enthusiastic disciples below from the high platform, and a young man stood beside him.
"You were one of the first disciples to join the gun. ”
Qi Ping stood behind Bi Lingxiao's right, and bowed his head when he heard the words.
"Exactly. On that day, when his subordinates heard that the Gun Sect was recruiting children in their country, they rushed all the way to Nancheng, and Mr. Meng Zi was selected and was fortunate to become a disciple of our sect. ”
"In the past few months, I've asked you to follow Songlin to take care of the upper and lower matters in the gun, and you can do it well?"
"At first, it was a little rusty, but fortunately, with Mr. Zi's patient teaching, I can now control it proficiently. ”
The soul beast matter has been resolved, and the level of all of them has been raised to the limit, and it is time to go to another dimension. The Gun Sect was established by him, and he recruited so many disciples to come in, although it was not well-known at first, but now it is really a world-famous sect. They are leaving, and someone has to take his place as the suzerain.
Since Dongtu and his party came back, Bi Lingxiao had the idea of choosing a successor. It's just that the members of this Spear Sect are all selected by the shadows, and he doesn't know much, and the only one he is familiar with is this Qi Ping. Fortunately, this person has a certain talent, and he is also serious and responsible, and during the days of his own trip, many things were also handed over to this person to be fully responsible, and the degree of completion was considerable.
"Follow me. ”
The two entered the inner room, and Bi Lingxiao asked him to sit down. Although Qi Ping didn't know what to do, the sect master told him to do it. As soon as Bi Lingxiao waved his hand, a few pieces of rune paper were pasted on Qi Ping's face.
"Gather your spirit and absorb it well. ”
Qi Ping quickly closed his eyes, and at the same time, he was surprised to find that his level was rapidly improving!
