New Bayi Chinese Network - A collection of online novel reading networks

After burying Senior Bai, Ye Qiu walked directly back to his residence, along the way, he was thinking about how to deal with the next thing, early tomorrow morning, the deacons and elders of the various peaks would definitely push Senior Bai's death on his head, and the disciples under him would also feel that it was Ye Qiu's responsibility.

This matter can be said to be imminent, and it must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise there will be civil strife in the Stormfall Gate.

Although the major forces on the Jin State side were repelled by the Bai seniors, it was only temporary, and it would not be long before they would definitely make a comeback, he had to stabilize the Wind Fall Gate before these people made a comeback, and then enter the Jin Kingdom, according to the time calculation, the shadow stream had almost entered the Jin Kingdom.

Then there was the situation and purpose of the Naginata, and he had to figure it out as soon as possible.

After returning to the house, he locked himself in the house and did not let anyone disturb him, many deacons and elders waited in front of the door until late at night, Ye Qiu still did not come out, these people dispersed, only Mr. Lan and Nangong Qianxi stayed, full of worry.

I don't know how long it took, the closed door finally opened, and the snow was already piled up outside, and there were only two guards standing in front of the door.

The cold wind was howling, and the snow was falling, and for hundreds of years, there had never been such a heavy snow in Tianxuan Peak.

Ye Qiu instructed the two disciples, "Go and invite Mr. Lan here, there is something to discuss in this seat." ”

One of the disciples answered and left in the snow.

Ye Qiu said to the other disciple again, "You have people prepare some wine and food and send them here." ”

The disciple left with some confusion.

Soon, Mr. Lan came here, patted off the snow on his body, and saluted: "Master." ”

Ye Qiu motioned for him to sit down, and then asked directly: "Now that most of the deacons in each peak are vacant, Mr. Lan knows more about the Stormfall Sect, in your opinion, who should be selected to take charge?"

Mr. Lan was lost in thought and did not answer directly.

Ye Qiu added: "Now the form of the Wind Fall Gate is different from the past, early tomorrow morning, the deacons and elders of the various peaks will definitely force me to resign from the position of head of the sect, it's not that I Ye Qiu likes this position of head of the sect, on the contrary, I hope that someone can take over this hot potato, but I promised Senior Bai that no matter what, I will let the Wind Fall Gate continue for two hundred years." ”

Lan Ruying listened, it was indeed too heavy to put such a big burden on Ye Qiu alone, and Ye Qiu was still too young regardless of his strength or age, and he had no prestige at all in the Wind Fall Gate, if it weren't for the previous few things, it was estimated that the entire Wind Fall Gate would have made trouble.

I knew in my heart, but he was helpless, let him Lan Ruying raise a sword to kill the enemy, he would definitely not say a word, but if he wanted to let him rectify the entire Fengfall Gate, even if he had that heart, he didn't have that strength.

Ye Qiu continued: "So I want to continue to be the head of this sect, there must be someone to support it in the Wind Fall Gate, this time the vacant deacons of each peak are just an opportunity, if I can let these new deacons stand on my side, I can form an opposition to the original ones, so these candidates, I hope Mr. Lan will treat them carefully, and they must all be decided before dawn." ”

After saying this, Ye Qiu stopped talking, but slowly closed his eyes and thought about other things.

Lan Ruying fell into deep thought, and after a long time, the names kept being said, Ye Qiu asked a disciple to come in and remember the names of these people, and after Lan Ruying finished saying these names, Ye Qiu asked this disciple to invite these people.

Soon, eight people braved the snow to rush to the house, and everyone's head, shoulders, and clothes were covered with snow.

Some of these eight people are already old, some are in the prime of life, these people come from various mountain peaks, some are former elders, and some are just ordinary disciples, and their subordinates have accepted so many disciples.

As soon as these people entered the house, they didn't have time to pat off the snow on their bodies, so they directly clasped their fists and saluted, and said in unison: "See the master, Mr. Lan." ”

Ye Qiu raised his hand and said, "Everyone, please take a seat." ”

After everyone sat down, he directly took out eight tokens and went straight to the topic: "Please come because after the last battle to protect the sect, Luoxia Peak, Rhino Peak, Huanshui Peak, Luoying Peak, Moon Peak, Huangshi Peak, Golden Peak, Poplar Peak The first of the eight peaks were all killed in battle, and the eight peaks could not be left uncharged. ”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned one by one, you look at me, I look at you, a little unbelievable.

Ye Qiu continued: "Of course, if you don't agree, this seat can find someone else, but the matter is urgent, this seat hopes that you can return to the peaks tonight to appoint, you are all the predecessors of the Wind Fall Gate, and you are people who are well aware of the righteousness, now the form of the Wind Fall Gate does not need to say anything more from this seat, the reason why this seat is so anxious to let you take charge of the peaks, I think you are also well aware of it, so in order for the thousand-year foundation of the Wind Fall Gate to continue, this seat hopes that you will choose carefully." ”

After a long time, an old man stepped forward, hugged his fists and said: "Zhu Zhixin, the law enforcement elder of Luoxiafeng, is willing to take over as the deacon of Luoxiafeng and help the head of the sect to reorganize the Fengluo Gate." ”

Ye Qiu selected the token that was in charge of Luoxia Peak, walked up and handed it to the old man with his own hands, and said gratefully: "Thank you Deacon Zhu, Ye Qiu has thanked you." ”

As he spoke, he bent down with his fists and saluted the old man.

After the old man took the token, he would bend down and return the salute, lower than Ye Qiu.

A slightly obese middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "There are three hundred disciples of Huangshi Peak, and only the head of the sect is the leader. ”

Ye Qiu took out the token of Huang Shifeng and handed it to the man.

And then the third, the fourth...... All eight tokens were handed over, and eight people saluted at the same time, braving heavy snow overnight and rushing back to Bafeng.

After these people left, Ye Qiu let out a long breath, and did not relax much, he looked up at the sky, although it was a little drowsy, but the night was coming to an end, and dawn would come soon.

Putting away his thoughts, he looked at Lan Ruying and asked, "Over there in Chaoyang Peak, the person who reported to the Shenyuan Sect found out, right?"

Lan Ruying nodded and said: "It's a registered disciple under Hu Zhujing, who entered the Wind Fall Gate twenty years ago, if it weren't for the large-scale attack of all forces in the Jin Kingdom this time, I'm afraid he wouldn't have shown his feet." ”

Ye Qiu asked, "How is he now?"

Lan Ruying said: "According to the orders of the master, there is no grass to startle the snake, and no one in the entire Stormfall Gate knows except for me and some people who are investigating this matter." ”

Ye Qiu nodded, then squinted and said, "It's Chaoyang Peak." ”

Lan Ruying frowned slightly, thinking of a possibility, but she didn't say anything more.

As the sky grew brighter, Ye Qiu got up and said, "Let's go and meet these bigwigs of the Wind Fall Gate, I want to see if it is their hard foundation or my hard means." ”

Lan Ruying followed behind him, and for a moment, he felt that this young man was no longer a young man, this young man he personally brought back from Zhao Guo, this young man who was already the head of the Wind Fall Sect, was more like the head of the house.

In the main hall of Duxiu Peak, the heads of each peak sat down one after another, including Lan Ruying, a full eighteen people.

Except for the deacons of each peak, all the disciples waited outside the temple, and were not allowed to enter without a call.

In the main hall, the atmosphere was a little dull, Ye Qiu sat in the position of the head of the house, a pair of eyes kept wandering over the eighteen deacons, and he didn't say anything.

This went on like this for a long time, and finally an old man got up and said, "Master, should you say something?"

Ye Qiu frowned and said, "What did you say?" Or what does Elder Li think this seat should say?"

The old man's brows furrowed slightly, and then he said: "Senior Bai has guarded the Wind Fall Gate for a thousand years, and the Wind Fall Gate has been peaceful, it can be said that although the White Senior is not the head, it is better than the head, after you became the head, you let the White Senior face the strong enemy alone, causing the White Senior to be poisoned, and making the Wind Fall Gate ......"

Ye Qiu interrupted: "I know what Elder Li means, that is, I, Ye Qiu, are not suitable for this master, right?"

He sneered, and continued: "I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm actually not rare, in the end, I, Ye Qiu, am an outsider, and I have nothing to do with your Wind Fall Gate, if it weren't for the old master's deathbed request, if it weren't for Senior Bai's death, I must let the Wind Fall Gate last for two hundred years, Lao Tzu would have patted his ass and left." ”

As soon as these words came out, these bigwigs of the Wind Fall Gate were furious one by one, if it weren't for Ye Qiu sitting in the position of the head of the house, I am afraid that someone would have rushed up to break this unscrupulous and open-mouthed guy into pieces.

Ye Qiu didn't seem to notice the faces of these people, moved his ass away from the throne of the head of the house, stood up, and continued: "Since you all think that I am not suitable for this head, let's talk about you, who is suitable? As long as you can name a person who is more suitable than me, I, Ye Qiu, will get out immediately." ”

He pointed to the deacon of Tingtao Peak and asked, "Are you listening to Yun Hao of Taofeng?" or Hu Zhujing of Chaoyang Peak?"

Hearing that Deacon Taofeng was pointed at by him, he suddenly lost his confidence, but he still said: "I think Senior Brother Hu is quite suitable, not long ago, Senior Brother Hu has been promoted to the Spirit Saint, and the disciples under the lower sect are the most among the peaks, and in the battle to destroy the Dripping Blood Sect and repel the major forces, it is also the most meritorious to Chaoyang Peak, so on, even if the old head is alive, I am afraid that he will give up the position of head to Senior Brother Hu." ”

Ye Qiu nodded, looked at Hu Zhujing, and said, "In this way, Elder Hu seems to be quite suitable. ”

When he said this, he looked at Li Muming, the deacon of Huayang Peak, intentionally or unintentionally.

In the entire Wind Fall Sect, everyone knows that except for Lan Ruying, Li Muming's realm is the highest, and then Hu Zhujing's disciples have the most, if you want to say who can be the head of this sect, it must be one of these two people.

If he threw the position of head to Hu Zhujing, Li Muming would definitely not agree.

Sure enough, Li Muming took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "The matter of replacing the head of the sect is a major event of the Stormfall Sect, how can it be decided so hastily?"

Ye Qiu looked at him and said with a smile: "Oh, Elder Li means that he wants me Ye Qiu to continue to be the head of this sect?"

Li Muming snorted coldly and said: "I just think that if you want to change the head, you must choose a person with prestige, especially in the realm, you must be one of the best in the Stormfall Gate, only in this way can you convince the public, otherwise it will be like the current head, and it will only bring the Stormfall Gate into a situation of no return."

"I think that at the beginning, the ancestor founded the Wind Fall Gate, and the white predecessors killed the Quartet, with the unfathomable realm, shocked the entire Canghai, our senior brother in charge, but also because of his own strength, in order to make many forces around him dare not violate the Wind Fall Gate, the head of the senior brother died, found such a hairy boy to be the head, no ability and no ability, so that the Wind Fall Gate faced the current situation, in this view, if you want to change the current situation, only by choosing another strong leader, can you deter those forces. ”

Everyone listened and nodded their heads.

Hu Zhujing snorted coldly: "Li Muming, why don't you just say that you are the only one in charge?"

Ye Qiu suddenly applauded: "Interesting, really interesting, as the deacon of the Stormfall Gate, when the survival of the Stormfall Gate is in danger, instead of thinking about the survival of the Stormfall Gate, you are competing for the head here, okay, I just have something to tell you, if you still feel that you are suitable to be the head of the Stormfall Gate, then I will hand over the head token to him." ”

After speaking, he said to the outside, "Bring it in." ”

Everyone frowned and looked outside the main hall, only to see two Duxiu Peak disciples escorting a Chaoyang Peak disciple in, and then throwing it on the ground.

Ye Qiu looked at this disciple and asked, "You deacons should know this person, right?"

Some people shook their heads and some nodded, but everyone frowned, full of doubts, not knowing what Ye Qiu was going to do, and the two deacons of Chaoyang Peak and Tingtao Peak had gloomy faces and their minds were in a hurry.

Chaoyangfeng Hu Zhujing frowned and said, "What do you mean by the head of the sect arresting my disciples?"

Ye Qiu said with a smile: "It's good for Elder Hu to admit that he is your disciple, I'm afraid you won't admit it." ”

As he spoke, he slowly walked down the steps, pointed at this disciple and said: "You must not know, after I became the head of this sect, I asked Mr. Lan to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the disciples in the sect, because I suspected that there were nails of other forces in the door, and finally found out a few days ago that this disciple turned out to be the internal response of the Shenyuan Sect, and the news that we came back this time was leaked to the Shenyuan Sect by this person." ”

In the main hall, there was an uproar.

Ye Qiu continued: "If it weren't for Senior Bai's action, I'm afraid this seat would have died under the yin and yang fish of the Shenyuan Sect. ”

He looked at Hu Zhujing and asked, "Elder Hu, according to the sect's regulations, if there is a traitor in the sect, how to deal with it?"

Lan Ruying got up and said in a deep voice: "According to the regulations of the Wind Fall Gate, all traitors will be abolished from cultivation, and then their souls will be taken and locked in the Great Array of Protectors, and they will suffer from the erosion of sword qi until they die." ”

Ye Qiu shook his head and said, "It's not good, this guy wants me to die, I can't spare it, right, I have to think of a cruel way." ”

This disciple was so frightened that his face turned pale and trembled, and he kept Ye Qiu's feet at once, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, spare me, this matter was all asked by Elder Hu to do." ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall directly boiled.

Hu Zhujing roared angrily, "You dare to slander this seat, see this seat kill you." ”

As he spoke, he raised his palm, stepped forward, and blasted directly towards this disciple.

Mr. Lan didn't know when he appeared in front of Ye Qiu and blocked this palm.

Ye Qiu smiled and said, "Elder Hu is in such a hurry, aren't you afraid of being accused of murder?" Or does Elder Hu want to die without proof?"

Hu Zhujing's face turned pale, but Ye Qiu ignored him, and asked instead: "To be clear, if you slander Elder Hu, don't talk about him, this seat will not spare you." ”

The disciple said in a trembling voice: "What the disciple said is all the truth, there is no half-truth, Elder Hu knows that the old head is going to drive the crane west, and he also knows that the old head wants to find someone from the outside to take over as the head of the house, and later after determining that the old head wants you to take over as the head of the house, he asked me to reveal the news to the Shenyuan Sect, saying that as long as you are eliminated, he will have the hope of taking over the position of head of the house, and I will be the deacon of Chaoyang Peak at that time." Moreover, Elder Hu also consulted with Elder Yun of Tingtao Peak, and asked Tingtao Feng to pretend that he didn't know and not to save you. ”

This made Ye Qiu a little surprised, he really didn't expect that this matter had been planned a long time ago, narrowed his eyes, and asked: "Just because you have no evidence, how does this seat know if you know that a big disaster is coming, and you want to frame others?"

The disciple said: "The disciple has evidence, the letter written by Elder Hu to the Shenyuan Sect was sent by the disciple, and the disciple likes to copy the authentic works of famous masters when he has nothing to do, this time the matter is too important, so the disciple copied the letter, and sent the copied letter to the Shenyuan Sect, and left the original for himself, and the letter is in the disciple's residence at this moment, and the head can ask someone to pick it up, and you can know it at a glance." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Lan had already disappeared into the main hall.

Seeing Mr. Lan leaving, Hu Zhujing and Yun Hao glanced at each other, and then rushed towards Ye Qiu at the same time, obviously the matter was exposed, and he wanted to pull Ye Qiu to the bottom.

The strength of the two is not weak, just now because Lan Ruying was present, they were all afraid, at this moment Lan Ruying left, there were very few people present who could stop them, and no one would be willing to join in.

Once they kill Ye Qiu and snatch the head token, it is equivalent to controlling the Protector Array, and even if Lan Ruying comes back, they will be able to escape with the Protector Array.

Ye Qiu had expected that the two of them would jump over the wall in a hurry, and while their bodies retreated, they used force under their feet to directly kick the exposed disciple out, and shouted at the same time: "Don't take it yet?"

As soon as the words fell, the eight deacons in the main hall left their seats and rushed towards the two.

When Lan Ruying came back, she saw two more corpses in the main hall, one was the disciple's, her chest was directly smashed by a palm, and the other was Tingtao Feng Yunhao, who was pierced through the heart by two long swords, and in the main hall, there was no Li Muming and Hu Zhujing.

Ye Qiu, on the other hand, was injured, and there were still blood stains on the corners of his mouth.

Lan Ruying didn't ask, she knew what was going on, and walked directly to Ye Qiu and asked, "Master, are you okay?"

Ye Qiu waved his hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and asked, "Have you found it?"

Lan Ruying nodded and handed a letter to Ye Qiu, who waved his hand and said, "Show it to them." ”

The deacons read the letter and either nodded or shook their heads and sighed.

It turned out that everything was true.

After a long time, Li Muming carried Hu Zhujing's corpse, walked into the main hall, and after throwing the corpse on the ground, he bent over Ye Qiu with his fists, "Hu Zhujing, a traitor to the Wind Fall Gate, has been ambushed." ”

Ye Qiu nodded and said, "Elder Li has merit in killing traitors, and some trivial matters that are not relevant to the decency will not be pursued by this seat." ”

Li Muming bent lower, "Thank you, master." ”
