Volume 5: The First Song Two Hundred and Thirty-Two: Calculation
Time goes back to the time when Qian Chao and Li Jian returned to the sect exhausted.
Li Jian and Qian Chao each returned to their residences, and when Li Jian saw his purple bamboo forest from a distance, he also saw from a distance that there was a person sitting there on the edge of his bamboo forest, as if he was practicing.
"You are?" Li Jian was very puzzled, but he immediately realized that maybe this was Tang Ping's arrangement.
"Senior Brother Li, you're finally back." The other Li Jian stretched out his hands and wiped them on his cheeks, and when he showed his face again, it became Lu Shuang's very charming face.
"It turned out to be Senior Sister Lu."
"Well, it was Senior Sister Tang Ping who called me over to help, he pretended to be Qian Chao at Senior Brother Qian's residence, and asked me to pretend to be you here, hehe, finally waited until you came back, and this errand can be unloaded, oh, by the way, Senior Leng Yue came here a few days ago, and I know about it, okay, Senior Brother Li, since you are back, then there is no need for me to continue pretending here, it seems that Senior Brother Li is also a little tired, then I will leave."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Lu."
"You're welcome."
At Qian Chao's residence, Tang Ping and Lu Pingchuan were there, Tang Ping was still wearing a green robe worn by a male disciple, and after seeing Qian Chao come back, Tang Ping couldn't help but start a meal.
"Hey! Qian boy, what you said at the time was good, you can come back in as little as three or five days, or as many as seven or eight days, but now it's good, how many days have it been? We have been waiting for you in the sect for ten days...... Ten days! The first few days were fine, but the more I got to the end, the more worried I became about you, and I had to prevent others from seeing through it, and even later, Brother Lu and I thought that you were caught by gentle people! ”
Lu Pingchuan was naturally relieved when he saw Qian Chao coming back, and said with a smile:
"Eh, it's good to come back, it's good to come back, how about it, there's no danger outside, right?"
Tang Ping said again:
"Seeing that he doesn't lack arms and legs, of course it's okay, with us covering for him in the sect, Wen Liang definitely didn't expect that the money boy ran out to destroy him these days, let's talk about it first, how are things going?"
Qian Chao smiled lightly, said "Fortunately, I am not dishonored", and then took out a few pieces of paper with images from his body and handed them to Tang Ping, and then continued:
"There are nine heaven and earth cages outside the sect, I can only find eight now, except for the gluttony, Qiqi, Zhu Yan and Fei that we know, the remaining four places are forbidden by these four fierce beasts, you can take a look."
Tang Ping took the pieces of paper and looked down carefully, and Lu Pingchuan also came over to look at it.
"Monkey...... Nine Infant ...... Gale...... Snake ...... Oh, my God! The pictures on this are all extremely vicious beasts, money boy, what do you mean by the small circle you drew on these three pieces of paper? ”
"Oh, in the cage of heaven and earth that bans these four fierce beasts, there are three places where people have touched their hands and feet, they are ......" Speaking of this, Qian Chao looked at the four pieces of paper in Tang Ping's hand again, "Nine babies, gales and snakes, they should all be within Wen Liang's calculations, the heaven and earth cage of Qiqi is the same as gluttony, there is no trace of any passive hands and feet, these three heaven and earth cages Wen Liang's hands and feet have also been destroyed by me, Wen Liang can no longer use it, but ......"
Tang Ping raised his eyes and looked at Qian Chao and said:
"You're worried about the Heaven and Earth Cage that you haven't found yet, right?"
"That's right," Qian Chao said, "Before dealing with Wen Liang, only that place worries me the most, I can't even find it, in case Wen Liang knows where the cage of heaven and earth is, and has arranged it there, then ...... It's a backhand left by Wen Liang, and I have to guard against it! ”
"Well, you can't find it, but there will always be people in the sect who know, so don't worry, there is something to discuss with you right now."
"Oh, you say."
"Ma Hu came a few days after you left, you usually trust him very much, and he has been contributing to dealing with Wen Liang, so I didn't hide it from him, I told him everything, Ma Hu meant, this matter should not be done by the five of us alone, he said that since we have become the head of the Qi refining disciples in the sect, then this matter should be done with those people in the sect in this capacity, and he also said that although there was no objection on the day Senior Brother Fan announced that we were the new head of the Qi refining disciples, But in fact, there are still some people who are very unconvinced by this, those people either want to sit in this position, or think that we have low cultivation and low qualifications, and we are not worthy of sitting in this position, and most of them have only seen our methods but not our strategies, and they don't trust us very much, so he said that this matter is a good opportunity, as long as we can take those high-level Qi refining disciples to defeat the gentle people, then it will basically establish the status of the five of us among the Qi refining disciples in the sect, In the future, when there is anything to command the people, at least there will be no constraints. At that time, you and Brother Li went out, and I agreed with him to wait for you to come back and talk about this matter in detail, but I invited Senior Sister Lu Shuanglu to help through Ma Hu. ”
"Well, I didn't expect Senior Brother Ma to be able to persuade you before me, hehe" Qian Chao smiled, and when he saw Tang Ping glaring at him, he hurriedly continued, "We talked about this matter when we were outside with Brother Li, if we hadn't been pushed to the position of the head of this Qi refining disciple, of course we would have done it ourselves to deal with Wen Liang, but now the situation is different from before, and our plans should also be changed, Senior Brother Ma said that Brother Li and I have also taken into account, and the five of us will not be able to unload this dispatch before the foundation is built, In that case, let's just do a good job of him, we are five people, and we can't do worse than Senior Brother Fan alone! Therefore, this matter in front of us is really an opportunity, at least we have to prove to those senior brothers who were present that day that Senior Brother Fan's vision is right. ”
Tang Ping listened and nodded:
"In this way, Brother Li will not have any objections, and Sister Yan should not have anything to say, but I will go to her again and talk about this matter when I go back. Brother Lu has always been here, and he also has this opinion, so almost the five of us have the same opinion, if this is the case, then we will find Ma Hu another day and we will talk about it again. ”
Next, Tang Ping and Lu Pingchuan saw that Qian Chao had a tired look on his face, so they left, leaving Qian Chao to have a good rest.
……
The next day, in the cave of Tang Bonian.
Qian Chao, Tang Ping and the five people were there, Tang Bonian was sitting on the main seat and looking at the stack of papers on the desk in front of him, while these five people were sitting below and quietly looking at Tang Bonian.
"Gluttony, Qiqi, Qiqi, Xu, Zhu Yan, Gale, Nine Babies, Snake Repair, Hehe, well, are these paintings all the handiwork of Qian Chao?" After looking at it for a while, Tang Bonian felt that these paintings were very good, so he asked.
"It's the younger generation's painting." Qian Chao hurriedly said.
"That'...... What is it? ”
Tang Bonian picked up one from the stack of papers and showed it to Qian Chao, it was full of complicated and obscure runes, full of them.
"Formation," Qian Chao said, "Such a formation has been arranged in the Heaven and Earth Cage of Banning Qiqi, Zhu Yan, Dafeng, Jiuying and Snake Cultivator, and the function of this formation is to destroy the Heaven and Earth Cage Formation that bans the fierce beasts, once this formation runs, the banned fierce beasts will wake up, and they will inevitably wreak havoc on the realm of our sect." ”
"Well," Tang Bonian nodded, "then how did you deal with it?" ”
"These formations have been changed to another formation by the younger generation with the ancient runes of the same period, as long as someone forcibly changes this formation, the formation will be activated, thus imprisoning that person, which is considered a ...... Let's have a small cage formation. ”
Tang Bonian was not good at this, he could only nod his head, to distinguish whether what Qian Chao said was right or not, he also had to go to ask other elders who were proficient in the formation, looking at Qian Chao who was sitting below, Tang Bonian secretly said that this kid had learned amazing methods from that old friend of the Mo Patriarch, at least in this formation technique, Qian Chao was already an outstanding disciple.
"Then you're ready, what's the matter with coming to me today?" Tang Bonian asked.
Tang Ping couldn't help but say:
"Sixth grandfather, people say that there are nine heaven and earth cages outside the sect, and nine fierce beasts are banned, and Qian Boy can only find eight so far, and he can't find one, and we are also worried that if the last one is in that gentle hand, even if these eight fierce beasts are not used, but as long as he can wake up the last fierce beast to make trouble, it will also cause a lot of losses to our Five Spirit Sect, which is exactly what the five of us are worried about, so we came to you."
"Well, so you're going to do something to that Wen Liang next?" Tang Bonian asked.
"That's right!" Tang Ping replied.
"Okay, then just let go and do it, the elders in the council hall also want to see how you are."
"But ......"
"As for the last beast, all I can tell you is to ignore it, even if Wen Liang knows what the last beast is and where, he won't need it, you just have to let it go and deal with him."
"Oh...... So, Grandpa Six, do you know about the last fierce beast? Tang Ping asked without giving up.
"Well, I know a little, but since you can find eight of the nine, this last one is left for you to find slowly, so it's interesting, hehe."
"You old man, really!" Tang Ping said angrily.
……
The council hall is still in that side hall.
The matter of gathering people was Ma Hu, Luo Ying and others to help Zhang Luo, but when the time came for everyone to gather here, there were a lot of people who came, but compared to the day when Fan Ji announced that Qian Chao and the five people were the heads of the new Five Spirit Disciples, there were more than 100 high-level Qi refining disciples gathered here that day, and now the number of people who came here is only forty or fifty.
Ma Hu's face was a little not very good, some of these people present were dragged by him, and now looking at the side hall that looked empty, as a friend of Qian Chao, he felt very uncomfortable in his chest.
Luo Ying's five people are naturally here, the other are Cui Yin, Gu Yuan, and the two sisters Fang Yang and Fang Han, and the rest of the people who came here either came for the sake of the faces of the people in front of them, or came with the intention of joining in the fun.
And those who didn't come, the reasons are varied, what is close to the foundation, cultivation is important, what is something to deal with, can't get out of the body, etc., or there is no reason at all, that is, they didn't come, the meaning of which is, where can the five people of Qian Chao not know it.
Luo Ying sat down and was worried that Qian Chao and these people would not be able to help but have a seizure, so she said in a round:
"There are also advantages of fewer people, at least it is more capable, and it is more convenient to dispatch, so as not to cause trouble."
Among the five people in Qian Chao, Lu Pingchuan has the worst face, he is a straight person, even if he is usually reckless and ignorant, where will he not know what the thoughts of those who did not come are now?
Secondly, Tang Ping's face is not very good, she didn't care much when she heard Ma Hu say that, but now she knows that what Ma Hu said is really not false at all.
The rest of Yan Xuan's faces were a little worried, while Qian Chao and Li Jian had the same faces as usual.
Although Tang Ping held back her anger, she also knew that she couldn't attack these people present no matter what, after all, these people came at the order, and it was enough to give them the five of them affection, she stepped forward, saluted the people present, and then said:
"Thank you for all the senior brothers and sisters here today, the sect has something to do with the five of us recently, and the five of us are also the first time to dare to order all the senior brothers and sisters, today's feelings, the five of us have written it down."
However, in Tang Ping's heart, dealing with Wen Liang was originally something that the five of them did, and they didn't plan that so many people would get involved before, it can be said that with or without the help of these people, according to their previous arrangement, Wen Liang's vitality can be greatly damaged, and maybe Wen Liang can be caught, and these people's participation is just icing on the cake. In front of these people, they can make a great contribution to themselves in the sect for no reason, Tang Ping originally felt that she was at a loss when she thought about it, but now it is good, there are still so many people who do not appreciate it, it seems that they are hiding to see the jokes of the five of them, which really makes her angry and funny.
Tang Ping continued:
"Originally, we also had some arrangements before, well, I really don't need to work so much with my brothers and sisters, and now the people here are just right, enough, I have written down the kindness of all my brothers and sisters, after this incident, I promise you that the sect will definitely have a reward far beyond the past!"
Tang Ping said this sentence ruthlessly, after arranging these people today, she will go to Tang Bonian to make a big fuss, and she must pour her bitter water on her sixth grandfather, of course, the ultimate goal is that as long as you are involved in this matter, the rewards given by the sect must be doubled or multiplied, after all, this is the first time that the five of them have gathered people to do things as the head of the qi refining disciples, no matter whether the sect supports the five of them or not, Tang Bonian must support his granddaughter, Otherwise, how can you do things again in the future?
Luo Ying sighed when she heard this, knowing that Tang Ping's girl was angry, this time she must make a look for those who did not come, for what reward is not rewarded, Luo Ying does not value, she and a few partners around her are worried about whether what the five people of Qian Chao have to do this time can be done, whether their plan was meticulous before, whether there will be any accidents after the actual start, and whether it will damage many manpower in the end...... It's no wonder that Luo Ying, after all, she didn't participate in the series of arrangements in front of this matter.
There are also Cui Yin, Gu Yuan, Fang Yang and Fang Han who have the same thoughts as Luo Ying, and they have some friendship with the five people of Qian Chao, so they are worried about them.
But Ma Hu wasn't worried, and even felt that those who didn't come were very stupid, and now he was looking forward to waiting for this matter to be over, to take a good look at the faces of those people, hum, that's fun!
After Tang Ping finished speaking, Qian Chao stepped forward, unfolded a map of considerable size on a large bookcase, and then said to everyone with a smile:
"Senior brothers and sisters, the next thing is the specific arrangement of this matter, please come forward, let's talk about the whole arrangement in detail, and second, make up the hand, divide it into several teams, and then select a leading senior brother from among them."
And just when Qian Chao was talking to everyone, just outside this side hall, Tang Bonian frowned and listened for a while, and then paced, today is the first time that his baby granddaughter has arranged for people to do things, he naturally wants to come and take a look, as expected, many people are not convinced, they did not come, the side hall seems a little empty, just now Tang Ping said those words in the side hall He also listened to those words, and said secretly, this time according to that girl, let her smile afterwards!
