Chapter 47: A Difficult Choice
In the face of Gong Changfeng, Qi Wanli hesitated very rarely.
He knew that he shouldn't hesitate at such a time, but he couldn't convince himself to kill Gong Changfeng.
"Wanli, we don't have time. Not far away, Bai Qiyu leaned against the big tree and coughed and said: "He may wake up at any time, and it is impossible for us to bring him back to Yuhai to think about it slowly, not to mention that the commotion here is too big, and someone will come to ...... at any time."
"I know. ”
Qi Wanli said these three words again, but the expression on his face clearly told everyone that he didn't know.
Bai Qiyu smiled bitterly and said, "Wanli, I guessed that you wouldn't do it...... Therefore, the vine I used to bind Gong Changfeng had a poisonous thorn on it, and it wasn't long before he would die of poison. ”
"What!" Qi Wanli was shocked, only to find that Gong Changfeng's lips had gradually turned purple. Before, he thought it was caused by suffocation and lack of oxygen, but now he realized that the purple color was abnormally bright.
"Qiyu, you!" he gritted his teeth, trying to say something, but found that he couldn't say a word, and he didn't even know what he should do.
At this moment, the Black King suddenly appeared on his shoulder, with murderous aura still remaining in his eyes, and meowed: "The skin of Dongfang Qionghan's throat is very hard, but I still cut it open. ”
Qi Wanli's eyes flashed, and when he looked sideways, he saw that the Dongfang Qionghan lying next to a white fragment not far away tilted his head, and his body was already stained red with blood. A young high-level transcendent powerhouse rarely seen in a generation fell silently.
He glanced at Gong Changfeng again, and saw that the green tendons on the old man's forehead were gradually turning purple, and he seemed to want to wake up, but there was no way to wake up.
"Qiyu, let him go, detoxify him. ”
Finally, Qi Wanli closed his eyes, made a major decision in his heart, and said.
Bai Qiyu looked at him in shock, coughed while holding on to the big tree and barely stood up, and asked, "Do you know what you're talking about?"
"I know. Qi Wanli said categorically.
"You're going to kill us. Bai Qiyu looked at Qi Wanli with a complicated expression, as if he had never known him before.
Qi Wanli shook his head and said, "You know what kind of person I am, you have to believe me." ”
At this moment, in the distance of the woods for a long time, some human voices and horses' hooves could be faintly heard, presumably the people nearby heard the huge movement here and gradually disappeared, and wanted to get closer to find out.
"Qiyu, don't wait any longer, listen to me!" Qi Wanli said in a deep voice: "You believe me!"
Bai Qiyu was stunned by his low roar, and his already pale face became a little more ugly. However, she didn't choose to quarrel with Qi Wanli anymore, but as Qi Wanli said, she lifted those vines.
"This poison is not difficult to solve, you can do it with the power of life...... Hope you really know what you're doing!"
Qi Wanli didn't answer, but silently caught the palace chief wind who was about to fall.
-------------------------------------
When Gong Changfeng opened his eyes, it was dark all around.
He found himself tied to a chair with a special material and very tough rope, and more than a dozen swords with cold light were suspended in the air, pointing at his throat, heart, temples and other fatal parts with a fraction of a second, and across from him, Qi Wanli was sitting hunched over a chair looking at him, his chin crossed with his fingers crossed, and the expression on his face was very serious.
Not far away, a woman could be faintly seen in the dark corner of the room, apparently Bai Qiyu, with a chubby long-haired white cat at her feet.
Gong Changfeng took about ten seconds to figure out the current situation.
Then, he coughed twice and laughed.
"Qi Wanli, if you don't kill the old man, why do you still point a sword at the old man, do you scare people?" he said with a sneer.
Qi Wanli was silent for a long time and said, "I'm just using this method to confirm that you won't do stupid things. ”
After saying that, he straightened his back, took a deep breath, and said, "Master Gong, you are a smart person, I don't want to talk too much nonsense, so make a long story short." I don't kill you because you are not a wicked person, I have no reason to kill you, believe it or not, I will eventually let you go. ”
Gong Changfeng was stunned for half a second, and his eyes looking at Qi Wanli became very complicated.
"The old man believes what you say. He frowned and said lightly, "Let's be straight, what do you want?"
"I don't want anything. Qi Wanli said: "Before you woke up, I thought about it for a long time. In the end, my idea is to tell you what is going on and decide for yourself. ”
Without waiting for Gong Changfeng to answer, he spoke.
"Dongfang Qionghan, already dead. ”
Gong Changfeng's pupils shrank and his breathing stagnated.
“...... Not only that, Lin Feifei is no longer there, in a sense. Therefore, for Xingchen Tower, the current situation is that the little white dragon has fled, and all the people they sent have been killed, while the people in your palace Changfeng and Yu Hai who are responsible for docking with Xingchen Tower are still alive. ”
"We won't discuss whether Xingchen Tower will doubt your role in it, but one thing is certain, that is, you don't have to think about building Wanghai Tower anymore, and the entire Shuo Dynasty will no longer have a place for you. Of course, you can go to Mingcheng and honestly report everything to Fan Xing and see how he reacts – or go away. ”
Gong Changfeng was silent, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "You Xiaoyao Academy are also involved in this matter, and it is also impossible to escape the responsibility of Xingchen Tower. ”
"In name, Xiaoyao Academy is just a helper lured away by Lin Feifei. Qi Wan said expressionlessly: "This matter is too easy to explain. After Bai Qiyutan heard the news of the little white dragon and reported it to Dongfang Qionghan, he chose to hide because of his low strength and waited for you strong people to deal with it. As for the fact that I didn't go to the two major temples after receiving Qin Zhi's notice, it's easy to explain, I just need to say that I take into account that the little white dragon is seriously injured and the strength of the Dongfang Qionghan is strong, and I don't want others to grab the credit, so I can go by myself...... Of course, I have countless reasons to explain, and given my time, I can come up with many ways to deal with it. ”
"However, what we are discussing here is not our Xiaoyao Academy, but you, Master Gong, do you think you have a way to explain it to Xingchen Tower?"
Gong Changfeng frowned, and after a long time, he said, "It's difficult. The role played by the old man in the death of the master of the East was not honorable. If you want to expose your existence, you have to explain what you have done, and if you want to stay out of it, you have to choose to hide your existence...... What's more, it is impossible for the old man to stay out of the matter. ”
"Master Gong is indeed a smart man. Qi Wanli said: "It's still the same sentence, no matter whether Xingchen Tower will find you trouble, you can't get their support anymore, and your efforts in Shuo Dynasty for so many years can basically be declared bankrupt." ”
"For you, there are only two options right now. Or, be a loyal lackey of Xingchen Tower, bear Fan Xing's anger, and accept his new instructions, or leave the Western Continent and go back to your Taiping Sea, or go to the Southern Continent and the Eastern Continent to start over. ”
"Huh. The palace chief laughed dryly: "Start over?" The old man is already this age, where is there time to start again?"
"The final decision is up to you. Qi Wanli spread his hands: "I'm just telling you what's at stake." ”
"You just want the old man to hide that Bai Xiaoyao is Qi Wanli, and Bai Qiyu is the little white dragon. Palace Chief Feng said coldly.
"Isn't this human nature?" Qi Wanli smiled faintly: "However, if you really choose to go to Xingchen Tower to complain, we have no other way." Of course, maybe I will have other ways to deal with Xingchen Tower, and once you really become a lackey of Xingchen Tower, when we meet again in the future, I may not be as friendly as I am now. ”
Gong Changfeng fell silent again.
He knows that now is a very difficult stage for both of them, both sides hold each other's handles, and he also knows that the other party is definitely not easy to mess with. For Qi Wanli, of course, he hopes that Gong Changfeng will fly away and never see him again, disappear into the vast sea with his secrets, and stay away from the chaos here, but for Gong Changfeng, what he has worked hard here for more than ten years is definitely not so easy to give up, but what kind of price he has to pay needs to be measured by himself.
"How much time are you willing to give me to think about it?" After a long time, Gong Changfeng asked such a question.
Qi Wanli rubbed his eyebrows, and said a little tiredly: "One night...... Yes, there is. I'm also very tired and tired now, and I'll spend another night with you at most, so before the sun rises tomorrow morning, I will ask Master Gong to give an answer. ”
Palace Changfeng sneered: "Aren't you afraid that the old man will verbally agree, and when you are free, the old man will immediately capture you and hand you over to the Xingchen Tower, so that you can be overcome?"
"This, I believe that Master Gong can do it, after all, you are not a saint. ”
Qi Wanli smiled tiredly: "So, just now when Master Gong was in a coma, I also moved some hands and feet...... I don't know if Master Gong has heard of the sun needle in Xingchen Tower? That's a very interesting thing, it was originally a unique torture instrument of the red-clothed Shura Fan Jianxue, but when Lin Feifei came to Yuhai, it seemed that Fan Jianxue gave her some, and now it's in my hands, oh no, it should be said, it's on you, Master Gong. ”
Gong Changfeng's face changed again: "You!"
Qi Wanli blinked: "At least, in the face of a powerhouse like Master Gong, you at the peak of the sixth order, I have to leave myself some ability to protect myself, right?" Don't worry, as long as you don't do stupid things, there will be nothing wrong between us, that little sun needle will be hidden in your countless muscle fibers, only I know the location, unless you find a Sky Walker above the seventh order, it is unlikely to find it." ”
"Oh, there don't seem to be many Sky Walkers above the seventh order in this world. Now that an Eastern Dome has died, it seems that there are only the Lord of Fan Lou, the Pope of the Sky Temple, and the two Dharma Protectors. There may be a hidden master, but I haven't heard of it anyway. ”
Gong Changfeng sighed heavily: "Qi Wanli, you are really a good means." ”
