Chapter 390: Internal and External Difficulties
Xingyang Sect Flying Star Peak.
Gu Menghou's eyes flashed with strange light, looking at the mirror, the middle-aged man in his eyes was undoubtedly vicissitudes and decadence, looking at the comb in his hand, his heart was like a knife, in order for his son to become a talent, he broke off the blood relationship between mother and son, and received the baptism of starlight at the peak of Feixing Peak day and night, which lasted for twenty-eight years, but his mother died depressed.
Unexpectedly, his original ruthlessness was nothing more than a handful of loess, and he thought that his son would be ambitious and talented, so he could inherit the position of the sect master and carry forward the Xingyang Sect.
A wooden comb in the hand of pinching powder, the flying ash dispersed, a single finger pierced, and the mirror was broken, but it could not be reunited, and everything turned into dust.
Rearranged the hair crown, changed into a brocade hat and mink fur, his eyes were like torches, the golden thunder flashed, and everything returned to the solemnity before before, but things were like flowing water, and he didn't return, and things were wrong.
In the lobby, Meng Maiteng is walking like a dragon, his eyes are shining, looking at Meng Xifeng who has never been in his eyes with interest, if it weren't for the fact that this purple servant has just reported to him, he doesn't know that there is a junior who has such a good courage, he is simply happy, and he has done a brilliant job.
He smiled slightly, stroked his gray beard, and said, "Well, Zephyr, this matter is caused by you?"
The disciple with a blue nose and swollen face in the hall cowered, his head kept touching the ground, trembling all over, and said, "Go back...... Back to the second elder, it has nothing to do with me, this matter is all done by Yang Xulin alone, I have suffered an unjustified disaster, and I ask the second elder to save me. ”
The purple servant on Meng Maiteng's side was expressionless, in the face of the big right and wrong, this junior was no longer able to provoke leverage, not to mention that the slightest threat to Meng Maiteng was simply a dispensable waste, discarded like nothing, and he didn't even look at it.
Meng Maiten was relieved: "Okay, well, Xilin has a good nephew, since this matter has nothing to do with you, then this seat will definitely keep you safe, and no one will dare to touch you in the slightest." ”
The purple attendant on one side immediately knelt on the ground, the purple armor was wrinkled, and his face was cold and resolute: "This animal and this great rebellion are not clear, and it is all the fault of one person in the west." ”
"Okay, this seat has its own claim on this matter, Xifeng, this kid has a heart, knows how to maintain this seat, and was injured by people, this is obvious to all, and the death of the young master is purely accidental, it was done by Yang Xulin alone, Xifeng is just a victim, ironclad evidence is like a mountain, everyone is watching, I believe that the suzerain is also a reasonable person, and he will not hold on to this matter. Meng Maiten said slowly.
Everyone was shocked, Gu Menghou was dead, and he was still underplaying the crime. Although strictly calculated, it really has nothing to do with this Meng Xifeng, but is an innocent victim.
But you also have to see whose heir this is, Gu Menghou is angry, and he will definitely try his best to involve Meng Maiteng's head, you Meng Maiteng can't hide from it, and rub it up, isn't it full of food and support, asking for trouble.
A figure walked out, his steps were heavy, his breath was as steady as Mount Tai, his hands were standing and looking, he sat down in a cross-legged manner, and he couldn't see the slightest loneliness
and sad, not sad but laughed: "Elders, today the young master was suddenly assassinated by thieves, this matter is all because of this, it can be seen that it was done on purpose, but with just an ant, it can't threaten the young master at all, it can be seen that there is someone behind it, what does Elder Meng think?"
Meng Maiteng said calmly: "Well, there is something unknown about this matter Elder Ben, the original beginning and end of the matter have long been clear, the facts are there, and all the disciples can see it clearly, this is not in the west wind, it can even be said that he is also a victim, the young master is already arrogant and arrogant, bullying the weak and not to mention, but he was killed by the always low-key Yang Xulin, and his ability is not good, no wonder others." Now that the culprit has been ambushed, the matter should also be over, and Zephyr should also give some compensation for the loss. ”
The rest of the elders all held their breath, they didn't expect this Meng Maiten to be so domineering, knowing that Gu Menghou was angry, but he was still ruthless, and his heart could be punished.
The four elders stood up and said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, this matter is all caused by this son, and according to the crime of joint sitting, he is also guilty of not being punished." ”
The third elder immediately stood up and said with a long smile: "What a crime of sitting together, the west wind can sit in the west, the second elder can sit in the west, and the second elder will sit in the entire sect, otherwise, the entire sect will not be punished, your four elders should be strict in law enforcement, how about you give yourself a joint seat first?"
The four elders were so angry that they vomited blood, and the three elders were well-known in the sect for their iron teeth and copper teeth, and they could say flowers in their mouths.
For a while, the left and right sides began to attack each other, taking advantage of their tongues and making a lot of trouble.
Meng Maiteng slowly took a sip of tea, feeling comfortable, as if the fairy sound was lingering, and he was fascinated by it.
But on the contrary, such a commotion, it was like child's play, Gu Menghou in the hall was already angry, and he was made by this black smoke miasma, his mood fell to the bottom, he smashed the golden chair in his hand, and said solemnly: "Okay, this son is Xilin's nephew, and in recent days, he has been deliberately promoting the momentum of the second elder in the sect, and this flag is ironclad evidence, it is conceivable that everything is planned by him, using the Yangxu Forest Pit to kill the young master, and someone will take Xilin." ”
Unfortunately, no one got up.
Chilled for a while.
Gu Menghou held it with one hand, and the broken gold nugget fell into the palm of his hand and turned into a mess of mud, "Come on, take it for me." ”
Several people came from outside the hall, with a fierce face, and walked towards Meng Xilin with fierce eyes, about to take down the other party.
With a wave of one hand, several people fell into disgrace, hugged together, and scolded: "This matter should not be done by the Starfall Guard, like this matter, it should be handled by the Law Enforcement Hall, I don't know what the sect master thinks?"
The third elder stood up, did not show timidity, stood much straighter, and said righteously: "Returning to the sect master, since such a reckless matter of human life has happened in the sect, it should be up to me to uphold justice and deal with it fairly, and it should not be enforced by the Starfall Guard." ”
When Gu Menghou heard this, he was even more depressed, he couldn't imagine that the situation was changing, he was angry, but he couldn't vent, he was scolded to such an extent, he really wanted to cry without tears.
I knew it early
, at that time, he shouldn't have been in a hurry to start and detain Yang Xulin, so he could use this son to make a big fuss and torture him to extract a confession, and he didn't believe that he didn't open his disgusting mouth.
But now, although this son is involved, he doesn't have the strength, and Meng Maiteng is sitting here, if he forcibly ingests it, I'm afraid he will immediately turn his face.
There was silence for a while.
Meng Maiteng's smile became thicker and thicker, and he exhaled a turbid breath, and the old god was leaning on the Taishi chair, drowsy.
Gu Menghou suddenly made a move, his moves were extremely fast, and between the lightning and flint, he had already captured Meng Xifeng in his hand, and coerced and lured: "If you confess honestly, this sect can let ......"
Meng Maiteng couldn't sit still, he couldn't imagine that the other party was surprised, regardless of his face, he personally dealt with a junior, and used the power of deterrence to intimidate the other party.
The figure swayed, and he quickly made a move, but a water-blue dragon claw came from outside the hall.
Meng Maiten had to dodge and get out of the way.
Two side-by-side figures fell in the lobby, and said with a smile: "Xiao Meng is okay." ”
Meng Maiteng's face froze, and he was indescribably solemn, and he bent down slightly and said, "I've seen two elders." ”
The elder dragged lightly with one hand, and Meng Maiteng was helped up, and said lightly: "This seat is here, just for one sentence, and it is enough to stop." ”
Meng Maiteng smiled, his eyebrows expanded, and said, "Okay, the Great Elder is fair, and Xiao Meng has nothing to say, but I don't know if the Gu Sect Master can accept it?"
The elders and protectors in the field all stood up to pay homage, and they were also familiar with the two patriarchs, the cornerstone of Xingyang Sect's fame, and it was the two patriarchs who could carry it forward in this county.
However, the two patriarchs have long since stopped asking about the world, meditating on cultivation, and it is rumored that they have almost broken through the level of the spirit master, but they don't know where they have reached now?
The elder is optimistic about Gu Menghou, who is a Gu family with good roots. The two elders are members of the Meng family, and the two have a harmonious relationship and are like siblings.
Originally, there was harmony and beauty in the sect, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and after Meng Maiteng returned, he seemed to have won a heavy treasure and was coveted by the sect master.
After this meeting, the relationship between the two gradually became estranged, not to mention, they began to go to extremes, and they were on the same page. Meng Maiteng was even more unwilling to be subservient, and derived his own power within the sect, strengthening the branches and expanding his power, especially constantly using some favors to bless some core disciples in the sect to protect the Dharma, resulting in a miasma in the sect.
But the two patriarchs were not easy to do, one did not know what the specific treasure was? Second, Meng Mai Teng hid and did not reveal it, and he did not know where he was going, and he did not know what he had obtained in the water dragon treasure house, so he took this opportunity to even dare to face the two patriarchs.
Although the two of them want to take it, but Meng Maiten is not a fool, if he can win this thing in the hands of the earth demon and even the spirit master, he must have a back hand, in one, he can't give up the skin, the two of them have not consulted Meng Maiteng, they want to take a look, but the other party insists that there is no such thing, if it is done to kill chickens and take eggs, this Xingyang Sect estimates that it will not take half a year to fall apart.
But the clinker situation has evolved into such a situation, and Gu Mengge is miserable
died, directly drew the two-for-tat to the opposite side.
Now, in internal and external difficulties, Gu Menghou has also received a tip recently, many sects have been rushing towards the Xingyang Sect, rushing to the treasures, if they follow the rules, tempt them to take advantage, and use the righteousness of the sect to force Meng Maiteng to hand over the treasures, as for the strategy of retreating from the enemy, it is just some local chickens and dogs, plus the treasures are groundless, it is simply chasing the wind and catching shadows, not to mention that even if there are treasures, what do they have to do with it?
But as soon as Gu Mengge died, there was no room for maneuver between the two, and at that time, Xingyang Sect was in the target of everyone, and if he was not careful, it would only be a flick of his fingers to lose the whole game, and it would be normal for the century-old foundation to be scattered.
The two patriarchs had not been out of the customs for a long time, and they knew almost nothing about the situation of the sect.
Gu Menghou smiled sadly: "The two elders, the Xingyang Sect is in a difficult situation both internally and externally, if you can't give a satisfactory answer to this sect, this sect will never stop, it's a big deal." ”
The four elders also resolutely stood up and said: "The two elders don't know, now the wolves are devouring the tigers, and the hundred sects covet the treasures that my Xingyang Sect has taken from the Water Dragon Treasure House, and want to take it for themselves, and now they have formed an alliance and come together to denounce it." ”
"What?" The Great Elder, who had always been unfazed, suddenly exclaimed, his heart was cold, the sect was already unstable, and now there was a lot of noise outside.
Meng Maiteng sneered, "This is not due to the foresight of Sect Master Gu, who deliberately spread the matter of the treasure of this seat in the sect, and made everyone know about it, but now it is good, stealing chickens does not make rice, and it is self-inflicted." ”
"Hmph, this matter is all because of you alone, since you should handle it, the other party is coming at you, who should you deal with?" Gu Menghou sneered.
The two elders were silent for a while, ignoring the two who were facing each other, glanced at each other, showed a decisive look in their eyes, looked at Meng Maiteng in unison, and couldn't help but take half a step forward, blocking each other's way.
The two elders sighed and said: "Maiten, the disaster of the Xingyang Sect has started, if you can't work together, I am afraid that the ashes will be annihilated, this seat will never allow this to happen under my nose, and I hope you know how to advance and retreat." ”
Meng Maiteng pursed his lips, his face turned blue, he knew that this day would come sooner or later, and he had taken all possible measures, but he still didn't expect it to come so quickly.
If it was later, with his strength, it would be enough to compete with the two elders, or even surpass it, and then persuade the two elders to swallow the entire Xingyang Sect, but now it is obviously impossible.
Not to mention how dangerous it is, the wolves outside alone can't allow the two elders to change the direction of the wind.
