Chapter 124: Man Under the Roof
Seeing everyone leave one after another, Xun Zhi also stepped down from his position as his patriarch. When Er Qian immediately seized the opportunity to discuss Cao Xiao's matter with Xun Zhi, Xun Zhi showed a completely unaware expression and looked at Er Qian at the moment and said, "Why haven't you left yet?" ”
Looking at Xun Zhi's expression, Er Qian's heart immediately thought of how this woman could pretend so well, but when she was still smiling on her face and was about to say something, Xun Zhi blocked Er Qian's mouth again and said, "If you have anything, wait for me to finish talking to Wu Jinlu, and you will come to talk to me." ”
And the Immeasurable Ghost King, who was also waiting with Er Qian, also looked at Er Qian with a smile and said, "Let's go out first." ”
Er Qian knew that Xun knew that this was obviously avoiding himself and consuming himself, Er Qian thought to himself how long you can talk to Wu Jinlu, so he could only compromise and go out with the immeasurable ghost king around him first. After coming out, Er Qian looked at the room at this moment with resentment in his heart, if he didn't have it, he really couldn't stand Wen Shitian looking at him with that kind of eyes, and he would have to make a fuss and find out Cao Xiao.
And the immeasurable ghost king on the side saw that Er Qian had been peeking through the window about the things in the room, and he also patted Er Qian's shoulder and said: "Brother Er Qian, it's not good for you to be like this, after all, Wu Jinlu was left alone by the sect father, isn't it a little bad for us to eavesdrop outside?" ”
Seeing this, Er Qian was also unhappy and said: "Don't worry, I won't eavesdrop on the conversation between the two of them, I just want to know when they will finish talking." ”
The Infinite Ghost King looked at Er Qian embarrassed again and said, "I think Wu Jinlu will come out by himself after talking to the sect father, let's sit and wait on the edge of the corridor." ”
Er Qian suddenly felt that what the Immeasurable Ghost King said made sense, so he sat down in the corridor and said, "You are right, but why are you sitting here with me, don't you have anything to do?" ”
The Immeasurable Ghost King looked at Er Qian at this moment and said, "How could I be fine? ”
Seeing that the Infinite Ghost King still didn't leave and was still sitting beside him, Er Qian spoke again: "Didn't you say that you have something to do, then why have you been sitting by my side leisurely?" ”
"Before you came back, my task was to deal with the affairs of the hundred ghost mountains, but when you came back, my task became to protect you."
"It's time to be more appropriately watched. But I've reduced your workload in disguise, do you think? ”
"Not necessarily."
……
In the room, Wu Jinlu actually roughly guessed why Xunzhi wanted to stay with him, first of all, he promised Xunzhi to formally set up a group member, so from now on, he will be regarded as a person who belongs to Baigui Mountain, and secondly, this time he returned to Baigui Mountain, which is definitely not as simple as he imagined, after all, today's corpse forest is a group of dragons without a leader.
Sure enough, Xun Zhi looked at Wu Jinlu and was about to say these two things: "Since you choose to join our Hundred Ghost Mountain, then I hope you can accept me and gladly accept my next two things." First, with your strength, it is indeed more than enough to hold a position below the Ghost King in Hundred Ghost Mountain, but I still can't give you any position right now. Second, I hope that in addition to fulfilling your last filial piety when you go to Hundred Ghost Mountain this time, there is one more thing I hope you can become the new patriarch of the corpse forest. ”
When Xun Zhi finished saying this, Wu Jinlu had already finished thinking in his heart, looked at Xun Zhi and said, "I'm really embarrassed Sect Father, I'm afraid I can't do anything about the conditions you proposed?" ”
"Why don't you want to be the new patriarch of the corpse forest?"
Xun Zhi actually understands Wu Jinlu in his heart, after all, Wu Jinlu in his lifetime can have a quarrel with Wu Changfeng to the point of inextricability, so today's Wu Jinlu doesn't want to continue except for wanting to talk to Wu Changfeng about his heart, so it makes sense that she doesn't want to be the patriarch.
Xun Zhi said again: "Jinlu, I know what you think in your heart, and now that you have become a part of my Hundred Ghost Mountain, I only told you." Although Wu Changfeng is indeed not a wise enough father, he is definitely a wise patriarch. Wu Changfeng led the corpse forest after decades of wind and rain, and he once wanted to become the overlord of this Xiangxi land, which is enough to explain everything, and now his sudden departure, the entire corpse forest must be a group of dragons without a leader, I know you don't want to go back to that place to continue to live, but do you watch him being divided into a small piece, a small piece of place, can you bear to watch your previous place slowly disappear, are you willing to do your last filial piety for Wu Changfeng, Don't you want to make your last effort for the corpse forest where you once lived? ”
After listening to Xunzhi's words, Wu Jinlu himself fell into deep contemplation, although Xunzhi said these two things together, but Wu Jinlu knew in his heart that these two things could not be said in the same way at all, and it might only take a few days for him to make the final condolences for his father, but it would take a lifetime of effort to manage the entire corpse forest.
Wu Jinlu didn't know what to do, so he looked at Xun Zhi and said, "I hope Sect Father can give me a little more time." ”
The sect father himself also knew very well that although Wu Jinlu seemed to be resolute on the surface, he was a character who didn't like to drag mud and water, but in fact he was a very thoughtful person, Xun Zhi did not force her to do what she didn't want to do, so he naturally allowed her proposal.
Watching Wu Jinlu walk out of the door, although Er Qian didn't hear it, he probably knew what he said, so Er Qian stepped forward to comfort Wu Jinlu and said: "Actually, you always see a lot of things too complicated, although you like to make decisions on the spot, but more often you are indecisive. Don't worry, I'll go back to you when I'm done with what I'm doing. ”
When Wu Jinlu looked at this teammate who was comforting him in trouble, he really wanted to hug Er Qian all of a sudden, wanting to block these troubles for himself with such a chest, but he couldn't do it.
"Thank you."
Wu Jinlu left without saying much, looking at the back of Wu Jinlu leaving, Er Qian just sighed, thinking in his heart that Wu Peilin should not have made up his mind to kill Wu Changfeng in the first place, and he would not have figured out what happened next, but it was too late.
Er Qian stepped into Xunzhi's room again, and when he saw Xunzhi, he immediately showed his standard smile and said, "Master Zongfu, we meet again." ”。
At this time, it was Xun Zhi's turn to put on a face, looked at Er Qian with an indifferent face, and said, "I've waited for so long, don't let you wait in a hurry." ”
In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Er Qian looked at the immeasurable ghost king beside him with a smile again and said, "How could it be? ”
