579. Doubei majestic
The way to control people is just to lure, coerce, know with affection, and move with reason.
Although this method is vicious, Zhao Dongting does not have so much spare time to waste time here, which is obviously the most direct and appropriate method.
If you really want to be tempted, not to mention the cost, you may not be able to tempt the dignified head of the martial arts league in this brocade robe.
The method of knowing the emotion and reasoning is even more labor-intensive.
Manager Xue's arrogance and loyalty quickly disappeared under the torture of Gu worms, "Let me go, let me go." I will listen to you in everything. ”
He was used to a good life in Doubei City, and he had never suffered like this, but he felt the urge to die every minute.
Zhao Dongting waved his hand at Kumano, his eyes staring at Chief Manager Xue, "Let me ask you, apart from Cai Jianjiu and the Seven Great Elders, does your Martial Arts Alliance still have other masters hidden?" ”
Chief Manager Xue, who came back from the Ghost Gate, was honest, and this time he didn't even dare to stand up, so he knelt on the ground, "There are also two elders who don't show up very often and only cultivate on the mountain." ”
Zhao Dongting's expression was cold, "How is the strength?" ”
"Grandmaster Realm."
"Is that really all there is?"
"I ...... The little ones don't dare to hide anything. ”
Zhao Dongting chuckled, "You are really fast with the wind, no wonder you can live more than nourishing in the position of the manager." But you have to think clearly, if there is the slightest thing to hide, it will not be as simple as death at that time. My senior, there are more ways to make your life worse than death. ”
Mr. Xue buried his head in the ground. It seems that there is really no concealment.
Zhao Dongting didn't ask this anymore, but asked, "Then what method do you plan to use to take us to see Cai Jianjiu?" ”
Manager Xue, who could no longer see the slightest arrogance on his face, didn't dare to raise his head, thought for a while, and said: "In two days, it will be time for our martial arts alliance to accept newcomers, and then the alliance leader will personally preside over the ceremony, and the small ones can introduce a few to the alliance leader." ”
Zhao Dongting was not satisfied with this, "Can't you take us to see Cai Jianjiu in private?" ”
Chief Manager Xue raised his head, revealing a bitter color, "There are dozens of managers like this in the alliance. The small ones usually don't see the alliance leader. ”
"Okay."
Zhao Dongting didn't think about the truth of his words, "Then in the past two days, we have followed you into Doubei Mountain, there is no problem, right?" ”
Manager Xue's eyes flashed with a slight annoyance, but he had to nod, "The little one will do it." ”
Zhao Dongting nodded, "Don't worry, you can help us do this well, and the benefits will probably surprise you when the time comes." This son will not drive you in vain. ”
Then he looked at Xuanxue, "You can go back by yourself." ”
In this way, the five of them left Fujia Cloth Workshop and followed the chief steward surnamed Xue to Doubei Mountain.
Doubei Mountain is in Doubei City, towering into the clouds, with a tendency to overlook the world. A few miles from the foot of the mountain, half of the mountain is surrounded by walls that are taller than the outer walls.
The inner city guards no longer wore armor, but were all dressed in white robes. All of them hold swords, somewhat immortal.
In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, even the top sects in the rivers and lakes may not have such a battle.
Zhao Dongting smiled lightly, "It's really that there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey is called the king." ”
Hong Wutian and the others all chuckled.
Chief Manager Xue lowered his head and led the way in front, and a sinister look flashed in his eyes.
When he arrived at the city gate, he took out a token from his sleeve and said, "These are the masters I want to introduce to the alliance leader." ”
The eyes of the disciples of the Martial Arts League who were in white with a sword and an immortal spirit swept over Zhao Dongting and a few people, returned the token to Manager Xue, and let him go.
The city was empty, with no pedestrians in sight, and no hawkers to sell. But there are quite a few flags.
Zhao Dongting caught up with Manager Xue in two steps and said, "It seems that a manager like you still has some status in the Martial Arts League, like you, there are really dozens of numbers?" ”
Chief Manager Xue sneered, "It's just that the status is higher than that of ordinary disciples." ”
The deeper you go into the city, at the foot of the mountain, there is a sentry.
However, this time, they also did not stop Zhao Dongting and the others, probably because the Wulin League had enough confidence in Liuqiu, and was not afraid that anyone could cause any chaos in the city.
Go up the mountain along the stone steps, start with five steps and one post, and ten steps and one sentry.
Each disciple was dressed in white, but some of the sleeves were embroidered with gold trim, and they estimated what kind of small leader they were.
It's really no different from the palace.
Manager Xue hadn't gotten the status of going up to the top of the mountain, so when he was halfway up the mountain, he took Zhao Dongting and didn't continue to go up, and then went left along the fork in the road.
The temple is like a forest.
Zhao Dongting couldn't estimate how much gold and silver it would cost to build these buildings on Doubei Mountain. But it can probably be compared to the entire Monkey City, and even more than that.
Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.
Compared with the magnificence and majesty of the inner city of Doubei, and the ruins of county towns such as Monkey City, this poem involuntarily appeared in his mind.
Mr. Xue is in charge of the procurement of the Martial Arts League, which is definitely not as simple as he said.
He has his own palace, and he still has dozens of people in his hands. When he arrived at the palace with the plaque of "Inner Chamberlain's Mansion", there were handymen in gray robes who saluted him, looking extremely respectful.
Manager Xue did not squint, and took Zhao Dongting and the five people into the hall.
It is quite spacious, with more than ten courtyards.
He took the five Zhao Dongting people to the courtyard of one of them, the Spring Courtyard, and asked, "How many of you can live here?" ”
Zhao Dongting didn't have any opinions, just asked: "Your Martial Arts League still has the name of the Inner Servant's Mansion, may this not be overstepping?" ”
Mr. Xue may have dealt with outsiders a lot, and his Chinese is quite pure, "This is also a royal privilege." ”
Zhao Dongting chuckled, "Is your lord blinded by lard?" ”
He inevitably speculated that the relationship between Emperor A Xing and the Wulin League might not be as simple as Manager Xue said.
Even if the Martial Arts League helped him win the throne in the first place, he shouldn't have even given such a concession to the Martial Arts League.
Throughout the ages, how many emperors have never cooked rabbits and dead dogs?
Even if the Ah Xing Emperor Mansion is kind-hearted, there is absolutely no reason for the Wulin League to be on an equal footing with him. Unless he doesn't want his own country.
But it is estimated that this Chief Xue doesn't know what the inside story is, and he doesn't bother to ask more.
When I arrived at the Spring Courtyard, a few girls were cleaning, all wearing pink gauze skirts. Seeing the head manager, Manager Xue bowed, "I've seen the head manager." ”
Mr. Xue: "These are all the guests of the general manager, and you are waiting for you." ”
"Yes."
The voices of several girls are soft and glutinous, just like rice cakes.
Manager Xue looked at Zhao Dongting, "That'...... The little one stepped back first? ”
Zhao Dongting chuckled, "You have been staying here for the past two days. ”
Manager Xue probably didn't have any hope that Zhao Dongting would really let him go, so he didn't say more. He never wanted to try that kind of insect-eating taste again in his life.
Two days passed quickly.
Manager Xue didn't lie, and in the early morning of the third day, a bell rang on this Doubei Mountain, and it rang six times in a row.
It's just that the scene is still a little different from what Zhao Dongting thought.
The surnamed Xue took them out of the inner chamberlain and went up to the top of the mountain. Finally, stop at a huge square.
There were thousands of white-clothed disciples gathered here, and there were many people like Chief Xue who were wearing red robes or other colored clothes.
Zhao Dongting asked, "Your martial arts alliance recruits disciples in such a big battle?" ”
Mr. Xue: "I heard that this time the alliance leader found a great master of the Grandmaster Realm from outside, and he wanted to make the scene bigger, and he should have given that master the position of an elder." ”
Then he took Zhao Dongting and the five people to a place where there were more than a dozen red-robed chiefs.
He certainly has his social circle in the Wulin League.
These managers are quite familiar with Chief Manager Xue, and when they saw Zhao Dongting behind him, they were slightly stunned, and then someone said: "Old Xue, you actually invited so many masters this time?" ”
Manager Xue replied with a smile, "Luck, luck." I happened to meet a few masters in the city. ”
Someone laughed, "I'm afraid I don't know each other if I don't fight?" It's not a scramble for, right? ”
It's just that they spoke Hokkien dialect, and Zhao Dongting didn't understand how to understand it.
"The Alliance Leader is here."
Only a few minutes had passed before the crowd rang out like this.
The red-robed stewards all looked towards the high platform at the top of the square.
Nine people in golden robes flew by.
Zhao Dongting was dumbfounded, this battle was 10,000 times bigger than the empty man who was at the top of the list of masters in the rivers and lakes.
The nine golden-robed people were all carrying swords, and when a disciple threw the sword on the stage, they swept over the sword. Until the middle of the platform.
It was also thanks to them that they stretched out their hands well, and after they stepped on the sword, it fell back into the hands of those disciples.
Thousands of disciples fell to their knees in an instant, shouting in unison: "Welcome to the alliance leader and elders!" ”
"Do it."
Zhao Dongting coldly spit out two words.
