Chapter 369 - Coming and Going Ethereal 32

.

Hearing the words of the high priest Qin Wuming, Ghost Dance Liuyang and his entourage were immediately stunned, looking at each other, not knowing what to say. Especially Su Qianxun, the whole person was directly dumbfounded, because before she went to look for the demon bead, and after she came back from the search, including when she entered the hall just now, Su Qianxun had repeatedly asked Qin Wuming to help the Spirit Clan talk, so that Zulong could send troops to help.

At the beginning, the high priest Qin Wuming categorically agreed, and without the slightest hesitation, he chose to stand on Su Qianxun's side. Unexpectedly, Qin Wufang turned his word on his word, and forgot everything after just one feast. So angry that Su Qianhiro stomped her feet directly and sat on the chair sulking.

"Susu, what's wrong with you? Come on, eat an apple! ”

At this time, Zhang Xiaobei didn't know what was going on, because when those servants and slaves withdrew just now, Zhang Xiaobei took advantage of everyone's inattention and secretly hid some flowers and fruits under the table, and wanted to take them back and enjoy them slowly, but Zhang Xiaobei felt more hungry the more he looked, and the more hungry he was, the more he wanted to eat, so he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and quietly picked it up and started eating, while eating, he also picked up an apple and handed it to Su Qianxun who was sitting next to him.

"Humph!" Su Qianxun looked up and saw Zhang Xiaobei looking at him with a smirk on his face, he became even more angry, stretched out his hand and grabbed the apple handed by Zhang Xiaobei, and said angrily: "Eat, eat, you know how to eat!" Hum! ”

Then he lifted the apple and threw it away. At this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared, and a sudden slash passed through Su Qianxun's mind, and suddenly, a clever plan was born.

"Susu, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly get so angry? Did someone bully you? Tell me, I'll go and skin him and make you clothes!" Zhang Xiaobei's face was full of hatred, and he stood up abruptly as soon as he slapped the table, attracting the attention of all the people, and all of them fell on him in an instant, thinking that he had an opinion to express.

"Xiaobei, sit down, sit down!" Seeing this, Su Qianxun hurriedly pulled Zhang Xiaobei, who stood up, to sit down, and after smiling awkwardly at everyone, he whispered to him: "Xiaobei, can you do me a favor?" ”

"Help?" Zhang Xiaobei saw that Su Qianxun was no longer angry, so he suddenly put his mind at ease, turned his head and picked up the flowers and fruits hidden under the table and began to eat them again, while eating, he said: "Say Su, no matter what you want me Zhang Xiaobei to do, even if it is a sea of swords and fire, and an oil pot furnace, as long as there is no danger, I, Zhang Xiaobei, will definitely go to the soup and fire, and my liver and brain will be smeared, and I will not give up!" ”

"Uh......" After Su Qianxun heard his words, he was embarrassed and sweaty, and after a pause, he said: "Xiaobei, you will tell my father later, saying that the demon bead is on you, as long as he is willing to immediately send troops to help the Great Spirit Clan, you will promise to hand over the demon bead, how about it?" ”

"Susu, why do you want to cheat?" Zhang Xiaobei looked incomprehensible and said, "Didn't I tell you a thousand times, ten thousand times?" The demon beads you are looking for, really, really, really...... It's really on me! ”

"Okay Xiaobei, I know you want to comfort me!" Su Qianxun spoke earnestly, patted Zhang Xiaobei on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, you will act according to your current expression later, I believe that my father will definitely believe it." ”

"Acting?" Zhang Xiaobei was anxious and said, "Susu, what I said is true, really, really...... The demon bead you're looking for is really on me. ”

"Poof!" Su Qianxun sneered, then clapped his hands lightly, and nodded with full satisfaction: "Hmm! It's really better than what I just acted! I almost believed it! Xiaobei, you will act like this when my father asks you later, but you have to remember that as long as my father is unwilling to send troops to help, you must not act as a showman, understand? ”

"Susu, I'm ...... Alas! Well, do as you say! Zhang Xiaobei was really helpless, he wanted to explain clearly, but he knew that no matter what he said, Su Qianxun would not believe it, so he had to agree for the time being.

However, at this time, Ghost Dance Liuyang saw that the ancestral dragon seemed to agree with Qin Wuming's statement, and then thought about the safety of the Great Spirit Clan, so he immediately stood up and asked: "City Lord, Liuyang has something in his heart that I don't know if to say or not?" ”

"Although the old man and your father don't have any relationship, they have some origins, so Liuyang's children and nephews don't have to be polite, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt!" Zu Long has a kind face, and he doesn't have the domineering spirit he had before.

"Back to the city lord, now the two demon clans have joined forces to destroy my spirit and demon two domains and unify the four realms of the realm, which is a great enemy." Ghost Dance Liuyang was no longer polite, and after saluting, he said all the opinions in his heart about the current situation, and said: "Therefore, if you only rely on your own strength to compete with it, there is no doubt that you will block the car with your mantis arm and hit the stone with an egg." Even if the ancestral dragon you get the demon bead and gather the twelve demon kings here, it is just a delaying strategy and an expedient measure. ”

"If you talk about strength, even if the twelve demon kings are powerful, presumably the ancestral dragon should also understand that in the past ten thousand years, the demon world has been in turmoil, not to mention a plate of loose sand, and the twelve demon kings are even more intrigued, competing for fame and profit, and they also exist in name only! Therefore, even if there is a demon bead in hand, it may be difficult to make it surrender. Let's ask, how can such a vulnerable crowd be the opponent of the two races of demons and demons? ”

"If we talk about troops and stratagem, then ......"

"Enough!" Before Ghost Dance Liuyang finished speaking, Zu Long suddenly became angry and said, "Since your Great Spirit Clan looks down on my Demon Clan, why did I ask for troops in Ten Thousand Demon City?" Why do you ask me for help from the Ten Thousand Demon City? ”

"Back to the city lord, please allow Liuyang to finish speaking!" Ghost Dance Liuyang said this, regardless of whether Zu Longtong disagreed or not, he opened his mouth and said: "The reason why the two demon clans are powerful now, and the reason why they don't take our spirit and demon two realms in their eyes is because they know how to join forces, because they know unity, unlike us, they only know endless infighting. ”

"Therefore, if we also join forces with the spirit and demon clans, we will definitely be able to fight with them, so that we will not run out of water and be destroyed by demons."

The reason why the Ghost Dance Liuyang said so aggressively was because the location where the remnants of their spirit clan were hiding had been leaked, and it was known to the two demon clans, and it was feared that within three days, a large army would definitely arrive, and disaster was coming. Therefore, Ghost Dance Liuyang was anxious to ask for soldiers, rescue the people who had been captured as slaves, and then open the spiritual veins and take refuge on the island.

But now it seems that Ghost Dance Liuyang knows that Zulong will not borrow troops easily, even if he gets the demon bead, it will not be so easy to get soldiers and horses. Su Qianxun couldn't see this, but Ghost Dance Liuyang and his entourage could see it.

As the so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, when Fang Cai Su Qianxun asked Zu Long to borrow troops, although Zu Long agreed, he sang a good show with the high priest Qin Wuming, one with a white face and one with a black face, which seemed unintentional, but on the grounds that the demon bead was not obtained, he politely refused to ask for troops.

In this regard, even though Ghost Dance Liuyang has grievances in his heart, he can't blame others, and Zu Long also grasped this point, so he sang and harmonized with the high priest. Because as the Ghost Dance Liuyang said, now that the two clans of the ghosts and demons are united, they can't compete with them alone. Although the war has not yet spread to Ten Thousand Demon City, it is only a matter of time.

And if Zulong wants to keep the Ten Thousand Demon City safe, then he can only not borrow troops, otherwise when the time comes, the demon and demon clans will attack, and he may not even have the ability to parry. After all, this situation is in danger, and the slightest difference will cost you your life.

For these, Zulong understands! Ghost Dance Liuyang also understands! What's more, Zu Long understands that Ghost Dance Liuyang will also understand! Therefore, he sang this scene with the high priest, the purpose of which was to let Ghost Dance Liuyang have self-knowledge, know its difficulties and retreat, and no longer ask for troops from the Ten Thousand Demon City.

It is also true that Ghost Dance Liuyang knows the deep meaning of the ancestral dragon, and he also knows that he is no longer good enough to ask for soldiers. However, when he thought of those people of the Great Spirit Clan who were in deep trouble, and when he thought of those people who had been reduced to slavery because of him, suddenly, a strong desire to survive appeared in the heart of Ghost Dance Liuyang, a desire to survive that represented all the people of the Spirit Clan.

It was this desire that made him want to save those Great Spirit Clan people regardless of everything, because only in this way did he feel that he could make up for the mistakes he had made. So, in a flash of inspiration, Ghost Dance Liuyang came up with a plan, that is...... and the Demon Alliance.

Therefore, the ghost dance Liuyang said excitedly, first pointed out the pros and cons, and then proposed the two alliances of spirits and demons to fight against demons with the momentum of breaking the siege. In this way, you can borrow soldiers and horses smoothly, and also protect the safety of Ten Thousand Demon City.

"Father, my daughter thinks that what His Highness Liuyang said is very true!" Su Qianxun, who was in a frustration, suddenly felt that it made a lot of sense after listening to the words of the Ghost Dance Liuyang, so he got up and persuaded Zu Long: "Now the situation is critical, if we join forces with the Great Spirit Clan, we will definitely be able to stalemate with the Demon Clan." If we can really find the demon bead, we can use this to summon the rest of the eleven demon kings to come here to help, and when the time comes, then the demon and demon clans must not be our opponents. ”

"High Priest, what do you think?" Zu Long smiled angrily, and did not rush to agree or refuse, but looked at the high priest Qin Wusheng.

"Back to the city lord, the old man thinks that this plan is feasible!"

Hearing this, Ghost Dance Liuyang and the four entourages all breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Qianxun was still there, thinking that he might really be wrong to blame the high priest Qin Wusheng before, because at the most critical time, it was the high priest who helped the most and said the most important thing.

Everyone was happy in their hearts, and Su Qianxun was about to thank him, but unexpectedly, at this moment, the high priest Qin Wuming suddenly spoke again and said: "But city lord, although this plan is feasible, it is a good strategy, and you must not rush it for a while!" ”

"High priest, you ......" Su Qianxun stopped talking, and the whole person was stunned again.

"Oh? Why did the high priest say this? Zu Long pretended to be confused and asked.

"Back to the city lord, as soon as you come, the Great Spirit Clan is no longer what it used to be, plus the peace of the past ten thousand years, its soldiers are as weak as nothing, otherwise they would not have been wiped out in just one night. Therefore, if you are in alliance with it, you will surely suffer from it; If we send troops to help, the two demon clans will find out the emptiness in my Ten Thousand Demon City, and they will take the opportunity to attack, and if so, they will even put our Ten Thousand Demon City in a place where there is no return. ”

"You ......"

When the four entourages heard this, they were so angry that they immediately rushed forward to reason with the high priest Qin Wuming, but before they could take half a step, they were all stopped by Ghost Dance Liuyang.

Although what Qin Wuming said was ugly, Ghost Dance Liuyang understood that this was indeed the truth, all of this was indeed a sin created by the Great Spirit Clan itself, no wonder who had known that there would be an end today, and no one would have let such a thing happen.

It's just that Ghost Dance Liuyang knows that the current Great Spirit Clan has no way out, and if you want to rescue those captured people, you have to endure it, even if it is more ugly, harsh, and insulting than this, Ghost Dance Liuyang has to endure it, and you can only endure it.

Because, in the face of life and death, everything will no longer matter. There are even only two choices, either to endure all kinds of torture and suffering, and wait for him to find a chance to turn over one day; Or, like that firework, for the sake of instant splendor, and die violently.

But the difference is that Ghost Dance Liuyang can only choose the former, and he has no other way out, because what he is carrying is not just his own life, but thousands of lives. It's his fault, it's ...... It should be up to him to end it, and he can't shirk it.

So, he held back!

~~~

"Why?"

Zu Long did not make any return to what the High Priest had just said, everything he knew and did not know, understood and not understood, all of it, Zu Long hid it in his heart, so that no one could see through and guess it.

"Back to the city lord, the second is because of the demon bead." Although the high priest Qin Wuming couldn't see through the ancestral dragon's thoughts, he understood what the situation was, so he paused and said informantly: "The old man said that the demon bead can be found or not, and it will be revealed in seven days." If he can really get his wish and get the demon bead at that time, then the city lord can send troops to help the Great Spirit Clan. ”

"City Lord, I'm ......"

"Enough!"

Ghost Dance Liuyang just wanted to speak, but before he could speak, he was stopped by Zu Long, and then he was stunned, and heard Zu Long say: "Liuyang child nephew, the old man knows that your Great Spirit Clan is in danger, but you should also understand that if the old man sends troops to help at this time, then when the Ghost and Demon Clans attack, who should I ask for troops in Ten Thousand Demon City?" ”

"We're just borrowing soldiers from you to save people, and it's not that we won't pay you back! We promise you, three days, three days, and after three days, we will return the soldiers to you! Mei Cao, one of the four entourages, was anxious, and knelt on the ground with a snort.

"City Lord, ask for soldiers!"

Suddenly, the other three followers, Shuwu, You Shan, and Li Zai, glanced at each other, and then all knelt down in unison. Because they all understand that if they go out of this gate, the thousands of spirit people will be a dead end.

At this moment, Ghost Dance Liuyang's eyes couldn't help but drip two lines of tears, like an incomparably sharp knife, slashing his face and stabbing his heart.

"High Priestess, send-off!"

Zu Long couldn't bear to look at it, but there was no way, it was not that he didn't want to borrow, but he couldn't borrow. Because if he sends troops, although he can indeed rescue the people of the Spirit Clan, but because of the emptiness in the city, the demons will take advantage of the void to enter, and thus harm the people of the Ten Thousand Demon City. So the two can't get along, Zu Long chose the latter, and he can only choose the latter......
