Chapter 62: The Undercurrent Under Calm
I sat on the ground, but when I saw her face was cold, I hurriedly said, "I'll pay for the damage." ”
Her answer was just a kick and then she wouldn't let me go to bed. Lying on the ground for a night, she got up early the next day and was sore, but the ghost daughter-in-law was leisurely grooming and dressing up, as if she was fine. Seeing that I was still glaring, he clenched his fists and warned: "If you dare to talk nonsense, you are ready to sleep on the floor for the rest of your life!" ”
I felt aggrieved in my heart, and I didn't know what I was wrong about, so I felt very uncomfortable, and I didn't bother to pay attention to her. If you don't let me talk in the future, then I'll just be bored all day. I happened to see Zhou Tong and them when I went out, and Pale Feather was also there.
People are not the past, and the present is not what they used to be. Although the Pale Crane resisted me from meddling in the affairs of the Daomen, the Cang family was able to sit in this position from the beginning of the year thanks to me, and when he was carried back, all the disciples of the Daomen could see it clearly, although the current Pale Feather was not grateful, but there should be etiquette, and he really regarded me as a master.
As for the revenge that I once thought about, it feels ridiculous to think about it now, because now that he is standing here, he has to be respectful, which is already the greatest revenge and humiliation.
"Elder Cang!" I shouted, and he immediately clenched his fists: "Master Li, the heads and elders of all sects and sects have arrived, and they are waiting for you to go over now." ”
If it weren't for the Amitayus coffin, I didn't want to care, I wanted to wait for the ghost daughter-in-law, but I just remembered the tragic encounter last night, and immediately asked Pale Yu to lead the way, and Zhou Tong and others accompanied me.
There were sixty or seventy people gathered in the main hall, all of whom had entered the coffin of Amitayus, but fortunately, these old people were not stupid, they were all like the pale crane that left their pale feathers, and they all had henchmen around them to ensure that their status would not be deprived because of the loss of strength.
Su Bai and Xiao Pingtou were also there, and when they saw me, Su Bai smiled faintly and said, "Master Li is so majestic, he takes Yin and Yang Men up and down with him when he goes there!" ”
The leader of Xiaoping does not squint, his waist is straight, and his hands are naturally placed on his knees. I smiled slightly when I heard this, and ignored his ridicule, because what he said was the truth, up and down the Yin and Yang Gate, there were just a few people.
If the ridicule is ignored, it will become a cold joke, not to mention that the people who come here from all walks of life know what is going on in their hearts, and no one dares to echo the sneer, which seems unusually quiet.
I didn't say a word, Su Bai's face became ugly, and he asked me: "Master Li, we will take over the affairs here, you don't need to participate." ”
"Oh!" I was a little surprised, and I frowned, and only then did he have a smug smile on his face. His character of not admitting defeat or never losing made him lose his mind, and he wanted to put himself high at all times, and if he lost a game, he had to win back a game, otherwise he would not say such a thing.
It's just that he forgot that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. In the world, no one can sit in a high position forever.
The decent sects were originally disgusted with their interference, and when they heard the words, they immediately talked about it. The Pale Crane was the first to stand up and said, "Mr. Su, the affairs of our Xuan Realm will be solved by ourselves. Li Men is one of my thirty-seven factions, and he is also the coffin keeper, and he will handle this matter, and we all agree with him. ”
The people below immediately chimed in, and suggested that I should take full responsibility for this matter. I brought it up two days ago, but the Pale Crane was afraid that I would take the opportunity to increase the influence on the various sects, so the answer was vague and did not give me a clear answer.
At the moment, the Yinyang Sect is such a small number of people, it is not easy to influence them, not to mention that I have no interest in this kind of thing. I set up the Yin-Yang Gate, the purpose is to protect my grandfather one day and prevent people from reversing black and white, and now because of the matter of the Amitayus coffin, they can't take care of their father, but he is an evil sect, and he will be an evil sect in the future.
I want to protect him and his mother, I need a certain amount of influence.
And the influence is not to use the coffin of Amitayus to influence the various sects, if there is not enough strength, it will collapse in an instant, so the current influence is not what I need.
As for Grandpa, they are hidden deeper than I imagined, not to mention that the enemy has changed from the Dao Gate to the Eight Clans of Gods, it is not my enemy alone, I don't want to be pushed to the forefront and miss the opportunity for the development of the Yin and Yang Gate.
In the face of everyone's quarrel, I stood up and said: "The Amitayus Coffin is related to the safety of the Xuan World, it is not my business alone, and at the same time, I don't need anyone to lead it, everyone treats each other as equals, and we can find out the connection between the Amitayus Coffin and the eight tribes of the gods." ”
Pale Crane wished I had said this earlier, so that the influence of the Daomen would not be damaged, and he would still be the leader of decency, and he would be the first to stand up for my statement.
I let out a long sigh, feeling more tired of going around these things than facing a strong enemy. Su Bai didn't expect me to do this, I didn't take the lead, but I didn't let them take the lead, and his face was suddenly gloomy.
The thirty-six sects of decency agreed to my proposal and nodded in praise. I smiled slightly and ignored Su Bai. He said directly: "Since it is our own business, we will ask the people of the Taoist Sect to carry the coffin of Amitayus up." ”
Seeing that I excluded them, Su Bai stood up and wanted to say something, but at this moment, Xiao Pingtou's hand moved slightly, and he happened to see it, leaving half of his body and slowly sitting back.
Everyone present cared about the Amitayus coffin, after all, it determined their future, and no one would pay attention to a person who didn't seem to exist.
But I seem to be following everyone to discuss, but Yu Guang is always watching Xiao Pingtou's every move, and I feel a little uneasy when I see this, which shows that he is the one who is the one behind the scenes. Su Bai's flamboyance and excellence can cover up his existence, what is the purpose of his doing this?
The coffin of Amitayus happened to be carried up at this time, and the pale crane immediately invited me to go up and check it out, and now he wants to know the result as soon as possible. Xiao Pingtou got up quietly, and Su Bai followed closely behind.
From the time the coffin of Amitayus appeared to the present, I have only touched it when I came out of the stone mountain, but I didn't have time to observe it, so this is the first time I have seen it up close.
The coffin is golden all over, and the four dragon patterns on it are lifelike, as if they will leap out at any time. If you knock it with your hand, you can conclude that it is wooden. I asked, "Master Cangmen, what is the strange feeling of you lying inside?" ”
The pale crane said blankly, "It feels like I fell asleep." Others have said the same.
I frowned slightly, and opened the lid of the coffin, which was also golden, but smooth as a bronze mirror, without any abnormality, and the same was true of the coffin lid.
The heads of the thirty-six factions were all gathered around, and people kept asking: "Master Li, do you see what's coming?" "There isn't even a tiny bump except for the dragon pattern, and they haven't found anything in their bed, what can I see?
The gossip made me annoyed, and I was anxious. I can't figure out its relationship with the Eight Clans, how dare I leave it to the Pale Crane to guard? At the same time, they relied on the eight clans of the gods, and without them, grandpa and uncle would have to continue to fight alone.
Thinking of this, I took a long breath and said, "Shall I go in and try it?" There was a sudden silence. The pale crane said, "Master Limen, the young man went in, and you have seen it when he came out......
"I've seen it!" I interrupted him: "I'm the coffin keeper, and I want to find out what's going on, that's the only way!" ”
"Master Li, there will be brave men under the heavy reward, we can offer a high bounty and let those who are not afraid of death enter." Someone shouted from the crowd. What he said is indeed the best way, I believe that when it comes to a certain price, there will be many people who are willing, but use money to buy life...... Whether it's voluntary or not, I can't do it.
"I'll come." I replied lightly and raised my hand to tell them not to speak. "If anything happens to me, remember, kill me." ”
Su Bai and Xiao Pingtou both looked at me in surprise, and Zhou Tong and the others' faces changed suddenly, and they hurriedly stretched out their hands to grab me and shouted, "Door master!" ”
Although I am the coffin keeper, no one can say what will happen, but I am not doing it blindly, I have confidence in my heart, even if the coffin can really turn me into a spirit clan, the things in the prison will not be willing. As soon as I finished speaking, the voice of the ghost daughter-in-law came from the door: "I'll go in with him!" ”
She is a creature cultivated by the Divine Tree, so it is naturally no problem to go in, otherwise the Yin Ghost will not have stayed in it for thousands of years. It's just that in this way, it is likely that her identity will be exposed, and when Su Bai saw her, her face became an expression of watching a play.
"Wife!" I hurried over and took her hand at the door. But before I could persuade her, she whispered, "It's okay, trust me." ”
Su Bai clasped his hands and said, "I think Master Li's proposal is good, what do you think?" The pale crane and the others had cloudy faces, and their hearts were very conflicted. It's just that they don't really care about me. Instead, I am afraid that if I die and lose the coffin keeper, the official will take the opportunity to intervene.
After all, what I mean to them is only the identity of the coffin keeper.
I wanted to block the ghost daughter-in-law back, but she pinched my hand in turn and secretly led me to the coffin, I hurriedly said: "The coffin is too small to accommodate two people!" ”
It's just that when my words come out, no one thinks it's a reason. Because we are husband and wife, there is enough space when we hold together.
Before I could speak, the ghost daughter-in-law pulled down her skirt and stepped into the coffin. Knowing that I couldn't stop it, I glanced at Su Bai coldly, lying sideways beside the ghost daughter-in-law, the people of the Daomen saw that the matter had come to this point and wanted to cover the coffin, but Zhou Tong and the four of them hurriedly pushed the person away, and came over and said: "Door master, you only need to knock on the coffin lid if you want to come out." Rest assured, as long as we are alive, we will never let anyone do it. ”
"Hmm!" I nodded, I hadn't thought about it, but it wasn't impossible. The lid of the coffin was closed, and it was suddenly dark inside. The ghost daughter-in-law suddenly used force, hugged me on her stomach, and then said, "Kiss me!" ”
"What?" I thought I had misheard.
