On the sacrificial sword platform, there were only three people left.

The Ghost King's Sect expressed his gratitude to the many local sects invited to the Ghost King Sect, and euphemistically issued an eviction order. The sects that came were all human spirits, so they naturally left early. And the disciples of the Ghost King Sect also withdrew from the sacrificial sword platform under the leadership of the ghosts, charms, dragons, and spirits.

Fifth Tingyun was still sitting in the same place, at this time, he could probably understand Ji Sanniang's state of mind.

The sword sacrifice ceremony that has been prepared for so long has been forcibly destroyed by the Tianshan Sect's arrogant and unreasonable way, Ji Thirteen Niang, as the head of a sect, is a trivial matter if she has no personal face, and the entire Ghost King Sect is oppressed by the Tianshan Sect, which is what makes her the most annoyed.

What's more, the unreasonable request of the Tianshan Sect is to marry!

She regards Bai Jie as her sister, and to some extent, even regards Bai Jie as her daughter. If it weren't for the first-class sect of the Tianshan Sect, she would definitely refuse it today, Bai Jie's will is her will! But unfortunately, in the face of the Tianshan Sect, Ji Sanniang, who has always been arrogant, can only endure it, for the sake of the thousands of disciples up and down the Ghost King Sect, she does not dare to openly disobey the will of the Tianshan Sect......

Three days later, the two parties were engaged. ”

This is the words left by Panxin and his party when they leave, Ji Sanniang knows that this is also the deadline for the Tianshan Sect to leave the Ghost King Sect. In other words, it should be the preparation time left by the Tianshan Sect for the Ghost King Sect. As soon as the three-day period arrives, it is naturally best for your Ghost King Sect to agree, and if you don't agree, you have to agree, this is the will of the Tianshan Sect.

"Master. ”

Bai Jie stood on the sacrificial sword platform, raised her head slightly and looked at Ji Thirteen Niang. She called softly, her little head was in a mess, obviously wanting to think about something, but she found that she couldn't sort out anything. So, she had no choice but to cast a pleading gaze to Ji Sanniang, in her opinion, the master would not harm her.

Hearing Bai Jie's voice, Ji Sanniang withdrew from thinking, and half-squatted down, her eyes just level with Bai Jie's two eyes. She looked at the clear tearful eyes in front of her, and said solemnly, "I have something to say to you. ”

Fifth, Tingyun stood up and prepared to dodge.

"Fifth, you come over too. ”

Ji Thirteen Niang surprisingly called the fifth Tingyun, and then beckoned.

Fifth Tingyun was stunned for a moment, and walked up the stone steps to Bai Jie's side.

"What I am passing on to you today is the founding purpose of my Ghost King Sect. As I said before, those who receive this purpose are the successors of my Ghost King Sect. The lord of a sect, in addition to his identity, is also a responsibility, a responsibility for hundreds of people. Speaking of this, Ji Sanniang paused, as if she had made a decision, and her tone changed, "However, I don't want you to take on this burden now, of course, you can't afford it now." ”

Just when Bai Jie was thinking hard about the meaning of Ji Thirteen Niang's words, Ji Thirteen Niang continued: "You go, follow the fifth Tingyun." Leaving Fengdu County, leaving Jialing Province, and going to Xiaoxiang Academy, the hand of the Tianshan Sect could not reach there. ”

After hearing this, the fifth Tingyun couldn't help but feel grateful to Ji Thirteen Niang.

Bai Jiexiu frowned and asked, "Master has long known the meaning of the marriage of the Tianshan Sect?"

Ji Sanniang said slightly apologetically: "Long before you came back, Panxin had already informed me. But I said that you are still young, and I thought that it would be over, but I didn't expect the Tianshan Sect to be so domineering. Alas, I should have thought that a sect like the Tianshan Sect would not consider other people's ideas. ”

"This time, I asked you to come back to participate in the sword sacrifice ceremony, I originally wanted to pass on the will of the founding of the sect to you, but I didn't expect the Tianshan Sect to suddenly kill you. ”

In the face of Bai Jie, Ji Sanniang undoubtedly opened her heart to speak.

Bai Jie asked again: "Master, why did the Tianshan Sect marry me?"

Ji Sanniang sighed: "I don't know this point for a teacher." ”

"After I leave, what will the Ghost King Sect do?"

The third question goes straight to the root. Bai Jie has been in the Ghost King Sect for several months, but in terms of thinking, she is no longer the well-behaved girl who called her grandfather behind Bai Yibing. It's just that she follows the fifth Tingyun on weekdays, and she prefers to go back to the past.

Ji Sanniang smiled with relief: "It's okay, can the Tianshan Sect still deal with my little Ghost King Sect?"

For such an answer, Fifth Tingyun tightened his brows, of course he would not believe it. You must know that the more the Tianshan Sect is a big sect, the more it cares about reputation, and to put it bluntly, it cares about face. Since Panxin announced it in public, he will definitely not give up if he does not achieve his goal, and if Bai Jie escapes at that time, it must be the Ghost King Sect who suffers.

Fifth Tingyun saw this very thoroughly, but he didn't want to say it.

"Okay, that's it. Bai Jie still wanted to speak, but Ji Sanniang waved her hand to stop it, and said, "The purpose of the ghost king, you must study hard." Maybe in a few years, my Ghost King Sect, which has shrunk a corner, will have to rely on you to develop and grow. ”

Then, Ji Sanniang said to the fifth Tingyun: "Take good care of her, you can go." ”

With that, he turned around and faced the tall stone sword standing alone in the center of the altar.

Bai Jie didn't dare to disobey her master's words, so she had to retreat with the fifth Tingyun.

On the way back to the room, Bai Jie didn't say a word, her little head had already realized that this time it was the crisis of the Ghost King Sect. She really wanted to listen to her master's words, so she and the fifth Tingyun went away again and left Jialing, she didn't want to marry that unknown Panxin.

But she couldn't make this decision for a long time.

......

......

Night.

There was no moonlight outside the window.

Approaching the fifteenth day, a huge disc hung in the sky, and it was supposed to shed the bright moonlight. But not tonight, as if they had been discussed, the dark clouds gathered under the lunar disk, obscuring the light that should have poured out on the earth.

Bai Jie stood in front of the window, motionless.

It doesn't look like what a girl in her early teens should do.

She had been standing here for an unknown amount of time, and there was no light in the house. The sound of insects in the courtyard was abruptly stopped, and when one or two servants passed by, the insects began to sing merrily again.

Suddenly, the sound of insects stopped again.

Bai Jie opened the door and walked out resolutely.

Behind him, the insect chirping gradually resumed.

After a while, she came to Ji Sanniang's bedroom.

I walked all the way here, but stopped before entering the door.

Just as she was hesitating outside the door, there was a "squeak" and the door opened.

"Come in. ”

Ji Sanniang's voice came out from inside.

Bai Jie shook his head violently, put aside the thoughts in his mind, and walked in.

"Master......" After entering the door, Bai Jie saw Ji Shisanniang standing in front of the desk with her hands in her hands. There was no light in the house, but Ji Sanniang did not sleep, it seems that she had expected Bai Jie to come in the starry night.

Ji Sanniang sighed inadvertently and asked, "You...... Have you thought about it?"

Bai Jie nodded: "Well, I've already thought about it." ”
