Chapter 408: The New Ghost Emperor
At this moment, accompanied by the hearty and somewhat sad laughter of the ghost crane, I became the leader of the group, but what about after that? I don't have scheming, I don't have a strategy, how can I lead these people? How to carry forward the ghost gate?
I looked at the ghost crane next to me, and I noticed that he was actually smiling under the silver mask, and his eyes narrowed, which was a heartfelt smile.
I couldn't help but be in a trance, I had known the ghost crane for only three or four months, and he was so relieved to put such a behemoth in my hands? What made him give up power to a hero who had followed him for hundreds of years?
Ahem –
The ghost crane coughed unconsciously, and then the people below stopped calling, and the ghost crane shook his black robe and said: "But now, I still have me in command here, and our trust in the ghost emperor is the vanguard, after winning this battle, I will abdicate, and then all those who have the ability of my Holy Sect can come to compete for the position of protector of the law." ”
There was another commotion below, but the ghost crane had already been helped into the tent by me at this time, and as soon as he came in, he vomited a mouthful of black blood, and then said: "It seems that I am really old, but yes, I am more than 1,200 years old, and it is time to leave this world." ”
When he said this, I didn't know what to say, so I just stood aside in a daze.
After a while, he turned to look at me and said, "Why don't you ignore me?" ”
"I don't know what to say, in my mind you have always been a god-like existence, invincible in the world, immortal and immortal, this suddenly you are seriously injured and there is a possibility of dying, I suddenly found that even if the martial arts are high, no matter how strong the Taoism is, you will die."
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect our new Ghost Emperor to have such an awareness at a young age, it seems that our Holy Sect can be carried forward in your hands."
"I'm inferior to you in every way, so how can I carry it forward? I wanted to quit after this matter was over, but you temporarily threw me such a heavy burden. ”
"Ugh." The ghost crane sighed and said: "It's because I'm old and confused, I'm not qualified to lead the Holy Sect anymore, Tuding is loyal to me, but I shot at him because of a trivial matter, and I also killed so many of my own family members with my own hands, you say, what kind of face do I have to continue to serve as the ghost emperor as a faint monarch?" ”
"Man is not a sage......
"That's all." The ghost crane suddenly raised his voice, and then slapped it on the table: "As a leader, a decision-maker must not allow mistakes, because a small mistake will make you lose your majesty, lose your friends, and even lose your life, Qiu Yan, you are still young, it is inevitable to tell you this is a little premature, but as a senior, you must think twice before you do anything in the future, everything is true." ”
"Oh." I looked at the mask of the ghost crane and said, "Why is the ghost gate called the Holy Sect?" What is the relationship between you and my master Peng Zu? How did you stay immortal for a thousand years? I feel like you're full of mysteries. ”
"Actually, we have always been called the Holy Sect, but our style of acting was too decisive before, so the people on the road called us the Ghost Gate, and over time it was all smooth, and this is how the title of my Ghost Emperor came about."
"What about your relationship with Peng Zu?"
"We are old friends, intimate friends, but he is not old and immortal, but I will be born, old, sick and die, and he broke with me because I killed people and practiced, and every time I kill someone, I will increase my life span by ten years, so I can always live now."
"Killing a person increases one-year longevity? Then you lived to be 1,200 years old, even if you had a 100-year yang life, you actually lived 1,100 years by killing people? You killed more than a hundred people? ”
"More than that." He waved his hand and said: "I have killed at least ten times as many people as this, but some people are not peaceful and narrow-minded, this kind of person cannot be used to practice, otherwise I will go mad, so one out of every ten people can be used Thank God." ”
I froze, this seemingly amiable man in front of me turned out to be a murderer, one man had killed more than a thousand people, and it didn't seem to him a big deal; This is exactly the same feeling as when I first met Peng Zu, he is a monster.
He said, "How much have I lived for more than a thousand years and killed more than a thousand people?" Kill one a year, and the various dynasties are in chaos, and my holy sect also needs to survive, and if someone comes to provoke, I naturally want to kill them, there's nothing wrong with that, right? ”
"Nope." I shook my head, if I thought about it, he had killed more than a thousand people in more than a thousand years, which was not much.
He leaned on the bed and looked at me and said, "You go first, let them put things in order, and after dawn we will set out to fight against the remnants of the Mayans. ”
I bowed down and bowed my hand at him, then exited his tent.
As soon as he withdrew, Feng Hanyin walked over: "Left... Lord Ghost Emperor, your residence has been sorted out. ”
"It's better to call me the left envoy, call me the ghost emperor, I always feel wrong." I was so upset at this time that I even talked to Feng Hanyin with swearing.
But he couldn't, and insisted on calling me the Ghost Emperor, saying that if he called me the left envoy, it would be disobeying the orders of the Holy Lord.
I was stunned, "Holy Lord? ”
"Yes, after the abdication of each Ghost Emperor, the sect members will call him the Holy Lord, not the Ghost Emperor."
"It's very disciplined." As I spoke, I followed Feng Hanyin to the outside of a large tent, and I could hear the voices of women talking inside, and there were more than one.
Feng Hanyin said: "Lord Ghost Emperor, the old minister will retire first. ”
"The wind grows slowly." After I finished speaking, I stretched out my hand and lifted the curtain and walked in, and it was Shui Yunyi and Yin Xiujuan who were talking inside, and the two of them were talking and laughing, just like sisters who hadn't seen each other for many years.
Seeing me come in, Shui Yunyi got up in a hurry and knelt down on one knee: "See Lord Ghost Emperor." ”
Me: "...... Forget it, get up, don't have to be so polite with me, aren't we friends anymore? ”
"It's... Yes, sir. Shui Yun stood up from the ground, but she didn't dare to sit if I didn't sit.
In the end, I forcibly pressed her onto the stool, I looked at Yin Xiujuan and said, "Tomorrow the ghost crane will let us fight, can you beat the evil god Duan Deyong last time?" ”
"It's hard to say, that evil god has received thousands of worships, and his strength is definitely stronger than mine, but he can't kill me, if you really run into him, I can help you drag him, and then help me in turn after you get rid of the others."
At this time, Shui Yunyi said, "No." ”
