Chapter 47: The Human Heart
47. Hearts and minds
"Pavilion Master......"
"What? you have something to say, you have something to say, it's not like your temper!" the pavilion master glanced at him with a relaxed smile on his face. In the face of his own right-hand man and his most trusted subordinates, the pavilion master seems very approachable. Especially today, when I got a sword book containing powerful sword intent, it was the time to be happy.
"If we do this, will it bring disaster to that child?" Elder Cui hesitated a little, since he joined the pavilion master, he has been through ups and downs for more than ten years, and he has already figured out the temperament of the pavilion master, and he seems to be amiable, but in fact, he is almost ruthless on some issues of principle involving the Sword Pavilion, and he almost wants to judge the two of them.
"Disaster?heh, Elder Cui, let's relax, no one will touch him, even with my permission, Situ and Shangguan The two old ghosts will not agree. The corners of the pavilion master's mouth twitched upwards slightly, as if he didn't care about Elder Cui's question.
"Yes, with you and the two elders taking care of you, I don't think anyone will threaten that child inside the Sword Pavilion, besides, there are two inner disciples guarding that child, I'm not worried. Elder Cui shook his head and continued to follow the pavilion master's meaning.
"Are you worried about them?" The corners of the pavilion master's eyes jumped, and he was full of anger, and the fleeting aura made Elder Cui beside him stand on end, feeling as if he was being extremely oppressed.
"They have rebelled from the Terrans, and after all, they are not of the same mind as us. Elder Cui raised his eyebrows and looked at the pavilion master, and said in a tone without pause: "It is precisely because we are not of the same heart that we don't want to see that we have a chance to grow. There is a powerful presence behind that child, and as long as we treat him well, although we may not be able to win him over, we will definitely get the kindness of that person. ”
"Kindness is not enough, we need his ability!" The pavilion master cast his gaze into the sea of clouds in the sky, and his tone was full of unquestionable words.
"This ......" Elder Cui froze, and a look of hesitation flashed on his face.
"Are you doubting that we can't do it?" As if sensing Elder Cui's hesitation, the Pavilion Master glanced at it with a chuckle, "As long as this kid is in the Sword Pavilion, as long as he values this kid, there will be a day when he will fall to us!"
Facing the pavilion master's self-confidence, Elder Cui opened his mouth, but finally closed it, and the words of the blow did not come out.
"Are you thinking that since I want to win over that person, why do I want to treat this kid like this?" The pavilion master seemed to smile, and his soft tone made Elder Cui shudder for no reason, "Do you even think that I am suspected of using this child?"
Elder Cui's face changed, which made the Pavilion Master even more convinced that his guess was correct, he didn't stop there, but went further and said, "That's right, I'm using that kid!"
The pavilion master admitted very frankly, "The demon clan spy is hidden in my Sword Pavilion, and if I don't get rid of it for a day, my heart will be uneasy! The traitor is like a stinger that penetrates deep into the flesh, and it is extremely harmful to the Sword Pavilion and the human race, if you don't pull it out, it will eventually endanger a large area, and even the entire body will rot because of this stinger." ”
"That kid is a bait, as long as he releases his relationship with that person, it will inevitably attract the attention of the traitor! There are tragic methods against the demon clan in the past, and there is the possibility of joining forces with us later, hum! As long as the traitor knows the news, he will definitely make a choice!"
"Pavilion Master, they're going to kill that child!" The cold qi burst out from the tail vertebrae and hit the entire body, and Elder Cui shivered all over his body for a moment, and he intuitively felt that his whole body was crisp and numb.
"Is it a madman who has lost his mind that can be used by me, or is it easy for a rational powerhouse to be useful?" The pavilion master squinted, did not answer the rhetorical question, but did not wait for Elder Cui to answer, and said to himself: "A madman who has lost his mind, or a powerful existence, as long as he provokes ...... slightly"
The pavilion master didn't continue, his hideous face made the frightened Elder Cui shudder, his heart was terrified, his mind was blank, and his lips trembled and he couldn't say a word.
"Does that scare you?" the Pavilion Master scoffed, "This is only the beginning, and the premise of everything is that if the person who really values this child is just a general appreciation...... The consequences are unpredictable!"
"Pavilion Master, no matter how that person reacts, this is a double-edged sword!" Elder Cui's mind was slightly sober, and his intuition was weak and weak, but he suddenly heard the Pavilion Master's self-deprecating words, and couldn't help but tremble his lips and said: "If that person really values this child, as long as the child is in mortal danger, our Sword Pavilion and the Demon Clan will definitely bear his wrath! With that person's ability, the fall of the Sword Pavilion is inevitable. If that person just appreciates that child a little and gives us some care on a whim, so that we have the illusion that the child will fall because of this, this is also an unwarranted loss, if this child grows up, it will definitely be a great power, and my Sword Pavilion will also benefit from it!"
"You also said that this may be an illusion, since we can produce it, what will the traitor think?" The pavilion master's head was lightly tapped, I don't know whether it was approval or what, and the words in his mouth continued, "If you can be a traitor, your brain will not be frozen when you think about it, and it must be a flexible and changeable existence." Those who are flexible are bound to be suspicious, and this is also the fatal wound of smart people!"
"No matter what, the traitor will definitely take action, whether to kill or stay, it can only depend on the child's creation!" The pavilion master shook his head, with some regret in his heart, "I am just providing a platform, if I really find out the traitor because of this, it will not be in vain for the child to go on a journey in this world!"
"That kid is on the cusp after all!" Elder Cui sighed, he didn't spit out this sentence in his heart after all, but he was a little sorry for his intelligence, looking at his attitude towards the pavilion master and the elders, his expression was not stunned at all, and he liked it when he looked at it.
Elder Cui shook his head, and the figure of Wen Chuanting stepping out of the sword qi storm appeared in his mind, although it seemed that he was breaking through the sword qi storm with the help of external forces, but how could he not find the faint sword intent on Wen Chuanting's body that had not completely dissipated, which was exactly the same as the sword intent aura he felt in the air at that time.
"If there is no special material root, with the existence of that person, how can he take special care of a good-for-nothing child?"
"Don't say it's old knowledge, it's not difficult to deduce from the mouths of Mo Mu and the two people, that one knows the official girl, but he doesn't know him who has not yet been born, and it is related to the matter after the annihilation of the demon clan, and the sword spectrum may be done at will. Elder Cui frowned and kept guessing, but he never understood the essentials, "Cultivation has reached a certain height, and he is particularly sensitive to breath, and he may have sensed a familiar breath when he takes care of that child, after all, a child who is not big will always have the breath of his parents mixed with it." ”
This would explain why the one took care of the child alone. There are thousands of disciples in the Sword Pavilion, and there is no shortage of people with good root and bone materials, if you just appreciate the intelligence and agility, my Sword Pavilion can pull out a double digit casually. ”
Elder Cui shook his head and glanced at the contemplative pavilion master, "No matter what, let's try to pay attention to it, and while finding out the traitor, take care of the child, in case it really gets out of control." ”
