Duan Qiushi's expression was solemn, his face was always indifferent for ten thousand years, after listening to Bu Tiandiao's words, he was silent for a while, and sighed: "This is also a helpless move, do you have a better way?"

Bu Tiandiao jumped down from the tall chair, his short body walked around on the ground, but the result of thinking was that he walked faster and faster, more and more anxious, Bu Tiandiao stood still, and said impatiently: "In short, it is not good to be a traitor! Although General An Guilie is a foreigner, he treats us well, you forget how embarrassed we were at the beginning, if he hadn't taken him in, I'm afraid we would still be wandering around in the Western Regions, how can we have a stable life now?"

"I know all this!" Duan Qiushi sighed: "But he also needs our martial arts, we have also helped him do a lot of things in the past few years, and we have also eliminated many enemies, if you insist on saying it, we and him are the relationship between employers and each other, not friendship." Now that he is obsessed, he has to unite with the Dayue Clan to make trouble in Loulan, you also know that such a result may lead to chaos in the surrounding situation, if it provokes the army of the Great Xia Dynasty to crusade, it will inevitably attract the follow-up of the martial arts people in the Central Plains, and when the time comes, will you and my brother flee in all directions? Where can you flee?"

This is the reason why Diancang Shuangsha is anxious to see Ding Peng, they originally followed An Guilie's purpose, that is, they wanted a stable and prosperous life, but with the exposure of An Guilie's ambitions, Shuangsha has now An Guilie is in close contact with the envoy of the Dayue clan, if their conspiracy succeeds, it will inevitably lead to drastic changes in the situation around Loulan.

After discussion, Diancang Shuangsha felt that a stable Loulan without the disaster of war was in their interests, and any drastic changes could bring unpredictable consequences, after all, Loulan was the throat of the Western Regions, even if the Great Xia Dynasty was unable to control Loulan, but it would definitely not sit back and watch it fall into the arms of hostile forces, Loulan was in chaos, and Great Xia would inevitably advance, so the martial arts forces that were close to the imperial court would inevitably infiltrate the Western Regions, and Diancang Shuangsha would be in a very embarrassing position at that time.

Flee, they have no way to escape, what else is in the west of the Western Regions, they don't know anything, only know that it is a more mysterious region, where the people and things are completely different from what they have seen for most of their lives, they are already old, and they do not have the energy and courage to challenge the unknown.

If they stay, they will face the appearance and pursuit of the old enemy, the shadow of the year carved a deep mark of fear in their hearts, as soon as they think of confronting the Central Plains Martial Arts again, they feel powerless, and the feeling of weakness fills their hearts.

So, what else can be done to solve the dilemma at hand?

The only way is to prevent the situation from continuing to tilt in a bad direction, and the Shuangsha reached a consensus on this point, so he made several suggestions and constantly advised An Guilie to give up the cooperation plan with the Dayue clan, but it was useless, An Guilie was a stubborn person, and it was difficult to turn back on what he believed, and besides, he had always regarded Diancang Shuangsha as a good thug in his heart, and he had no hope in their wisdom and strategy, and their advice could not convince An Guilie at all, he still believed in the plan formulated by himself and his advisers after years of careful consideration。

Seeing that the advice was useless, Duan Qiushi decided to join forces with the Star Sect to oppose his own owner and throw himself into the prime minister.

At this point, Bu Tiandiao had a different opinion, he thought that betrayal was shameful, the Diancang faction was in the Qin Dusk Chu back then, and stood on the side of the Righteous Path Alliance on the surface, and secretly hooked up with the Demon Sect, but in the end, the two did not please and suffered the disaster of annihilation, Bu Tiandiao thought that the traitors did not end well, and they should not fall to the opposite at this critical time.

Duan Qiushi listened to Bu Tiandiao's words, but he strengthened his determination, and said: "Your words reminded me that the old man was hesitant and couldn't make up his mind back then, if he had chosen a side earlier, whether he had completely thrown himself into the Demon Sect or firmly stood on the side of Bai Dao, the end would not have been as miserable as later!" I have made up my mind, if you still treat me as a senior brother, listen to me this time, let's bet on Ding Xuan, if we win, we can still keep our current stable life, maybe we can go further, if you lose, then continue to run away, anyway, there is no worse result. ”

Bu Tiandiao stomped his foot heavily and said loudly: "You are senior brother, Lao Tzu...... Naturally, I have to listen to you, but Duan Datou, you have to promise me one thing, we have to leave a bloodline for the sect, and we can't let Weiming and them participate in this matter, no matter what happens at that time, the Diancang faction can't just end up. ”

Duan Qiushi nodded and said, "Of course, my hard work is also for the inheritance of our Cang Sect." In this way, tomorrow find an excuse to send the three of them to Wusun, where there is a secret pasture, if something happens to us, they can also become herdsmen, and make a living, maybe they can save a little blood for the Diancang faction. ”

Bu Tiandiao looked at Duan Qiushi with a complicated expression, and said gloomily: "Senior brother, I always thought that I had a temper and a big gamble, but I didn't expect you to be more ...... than me Crazy than me, are you really so optimistic about Ding Xuan and the Star Sect?"

Duan Qiushi smiled bitterly: "At this juncture, do we have any other choice? ”

..................

Guessing that the matter was urgent, Ding Peng traveled day and night, and it only took three days to come to the mud city.

He did not go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, nor did he contact the disciples of the stars, but according to the contact method left by Shuangsha, he left a secret message outside the General's Mansion, and the two sides agreed to meet outside the city.

The place chosen is in the wild forest where the last jousting was held, which is inaccessible and very remote, and it is a good place for secret activities.

As soon as Shuangsha received the code, he went out of the city, and when he came to the wild forest, Ding Xuan was not there, and he waited for about half an hour before he came.

In fact, Ding Peng has always been nearby, he is cautious by nature, although the common sense analysis point Cang Shuangsha has no reason to plot against himself, but he is not afraid of 10,000 in case, so he made a cautious eye, and after the Shuangsha came in the hidden place, he secretly sneaked along the road back to the city to inspect again, until it was confirmed that the Shuangsha came alone, there were no other ambushes and dangers, and then he returned to the wild forest with confidence.

Seeing Shuangsha, Ding Peng said enthusiastically: "The two old brothers, I haven't seen you for many days, and I miss the younger brother." ”

Bu Tiandiao's face was not very good-looking, and Duan Qiushi was also indifferent, but he had always been like this (because of skin diseases), and he spoke very friendly: "Brother Ding, I took the liberty of inviting you here, I really have something important to discuss, I hope you don't have to be embarrassed by the old buddies." ”

"Where, where, seeing the two brothers, it was too late for Ding to be happy. Ding Peng said with a smile.

Seeing Ding Peng's enthusiasm, Bu Tiandiao couldn't put on a face anymore, and snorted: "This time there is something good to find you, you kid will steal the fun." ”

Duan Qiushi waved his hand, not letting him go any further, and said: "Although Senior Brother Bu is reckless, what he said is not bad, this time there is indeed a great thing to discuss with your faction, brother, let's go into the forest and talk about it." ”

The three of them entered the woods, chose an open place to sit on the ground, Duan Qiushi did not beat around the bush, and talked about the changes that Loulan Country is facing now and the collusion between An Guilie and the people of the Dayue clan, and then said straight to the point: " Although I point to the Cang faction is not allowed in the martial arts, but after all, it is the body of the Han people, and An Guilie's wolf ambition actually wants to drive Loulan to the Dayue clan to fight against the Great Summer Dynasty, my brother naturally can't agree, and today I invite the virtuous brother to come, on the one hand, I hope to use the mouth of the elder brother to convey my brother's intention to the prime minister of the time, and secondly, I just want to join forces with the virtuous brother to see what means can prevent Loulan from forming an alliance with the Dayue clan and sabotage An Guilie's plan. ”

Ding Peng's thoughts were swirling, wanting to guess the true intentions of the two old men, if he believed in the loyalty of these two old men, of course, it was impossible, then if the two evils really wanted to join forces with him, then they must have a plan, but what did they want?

Power and money can be removed, Yu Shi's power is not as great as An Guilie, Diancang Shuangsha follows An Guilie well, if it is only for these two things, they don't need to betray their master at all, and take refuge in Yu Shi halfway.

It's not right!

Ding Peng put aside these considerations, thought of the embarrassing situation of the two evils, and somewhat understood their approach, but the believer only believes in three points, not to mention the enemy of the opposing camp, Ding Peng did not rush to express his position, thought about it and said: "At that time, the prime minister was tolerant and elegant, gentle and generous, and naturally a good choice to assist, this first thing The younger brother can guarantee to relay and recommend for the two elder brothers, I believe the prime minister must be very happy." As for the second one......"

Seeing that Ding Peng was a little hesitant, Bu Tiandiao, who had not spoken, became anxious, and said: "What is the hesitation of this, when the war comes, the soldiers will meet each other, and the chaos in the country of Loulan will not be a good thing for the Lord of the Ding Sect and the Star Sect." ”

Diancang Shuangsha didn't know that Ding Peng lived on resources, and the importance of the Loulan plan to him, but he just thought that Ding Peng wanted the Xingzhu faction to take root in Loulan, so he definitely didn't want the situation to be chaotic, but he was not too sure, after all, Ding Xuan himself was not practicing in Loulan, and maybe the Xingzhu faction had other bases unknown.

Ding Peng was still silent, and even Duan Qiu Shi was a little anxious now, and said cautiously: "What are the concerns of the virtuous brother? You and I join forces, the combination will benefit both sides, and the division will be weak, since the Xingzhu faction is sheltered in the time, naturally they don't want him to lose power and fall, but if An Guilie's conspiracy succeeds, not only will Loulan be in chaos, but the position of prime minister will definitely be difficult to preserve......

Ding Peng shook his head and said indifferently: "The battle between the court and the chaos of the war, the junior brother really doesn't want the disciple to take the liberty of getting involved, so let's go back and think about it later." ”

Having said that, in fact, Ding Peng's heart was already ready to move, Shuangsha couldn't think of how important resources were to him, and to obtain a large number of resources for continuous stability, a stable and peaceful environment was a necessary condition, compared to the starting point Cang, Ding Peng didn't want Loulan to have a rebellion, so to speak, the news brought to him by Shuangsha had a great impact, and the anxiety in his heart was even worse than Shuangsha.

But you can't panic, you can't mess with yourself, Ding Peng's cautious psychology always puts safety first, whether the news of the double evil is true is still unknown, whether the double evil really joins forces is also a guess, if the double evil harbors evil intentions and designs to frame himself, then he is too eager, and he will fall into the trap of others if he is not careful.

Therefore, Ding Peng should be steady, at least calm on the surface, so there are two advantages, one is that if Shuangsha has other plans, he will inevitably think of other means to confuse himself, and when the time comes, he will lose too much, and he may be exposed; second, if Shuangsha has no conspiracy, he is calm and calm, let them be anxious first, and there are also benefits, and the initiative will slowly fall into his hands, so that he can get along with Shuangsha in the future.

After a few more words of persuasion, seeing that Ding Peng insisted on not expressing his position, Diancang Shuangsha had no choice but to give up, Duan Qiushi sighed: "I know that the virtuous brother must have concerns, but the matter is big, and it is indeed not negligent, so let's go back and think about it for two days, and we will meet again the day after tomorrow, when the elder brother must make a decision early, the general will not wait for anyone." ”

Ding Peng nodded, and said softly: "This matter is indeed too important, why don't I introduce the two brothers to the prime minister first, and then let's talk about joining forces in private, as for An Guilie...... No worries. ”

Bu Tiandiao's bull's eyes were glared, his expression was very dissatisfied, and he was about to speak, Duan Qiushi pulled him and said: "Listen to the virtuous brother, the prime minister still needs the virtuous brother to say a few beautiful words, and in the future, my two brothers will naturally look forward to the elder brother Ma as a star." ”

After a few more conversations, Ding Peng said goodbye and left first.

Bu Tiandiao waited for Ding Peng's figure to disappear, and hurriedly said: "Senior brother, why don't you force him to express his position, I think that kid can't ask for anything to deal with the general, now let's help him, he also deliberately took it." ”

Duan Qiushi was indifferent, but there was a smile in his words: "Although this matter is urgent and urgent, but you don't have to worry too much, I see that Ding Xuan already has an idea in his heart, even if we don't join forces with him, he will definitely stop An Guilie's actions." ”

Bu Tiandiao said: "In this case, why should we join forces with him in the name of a traitor, it is better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." ”

Duan Qiushi shook his head: "Naturally not, although this Ding Xuan is young, he is a ruthless man, he wants to deal with An Guilie, if he doesn't make a move, he will be as violent as thunder, I think the general is hanging this time, when we have no support, will we still wander? It's better to be wise now, choose a side to take refuge as soon as possible, and try to have a stable life in the future." ”

Bu Tiandiao was taken aback: "You, you mean he is going to kill the general?"

Duan Qiushi looked at the direction where Ding Peng disappeared and was speechless for a long time.
