Chapter 40: Advancing the Fire Pit
Bai Xiuping looked at Wei Yuanji's back with some melancholy proudly.
Now that you have the initiative, you can start to continue acting.
Bai Xiuping sighed softly, changed the topic and said, "Palace Master Wei, we Ming people don't talk in secret, and I hate going around the most. ”
"Since I finished my practice and left the customs, my father has become nowhere to be found, and Yangming Palace has become empty and deserted."
He said helplessly: "It's really different from what it used to be, just thinking about this makes my head big, and I can't even think about having a good time." ”
Wei Yuanji didn't immediately believe Bai Xiuping's words, and the other party's previous words and deeds made him not slow down for a while.
I was arrogant just now, but now I suddenly show weakness?
But he still pretended to agree: "Really? It's a hard work for you. ”
Bai Xiuping pointed at him, looking a little impatient and muttered, "I guess you also know that I have no interest in what you have to do. ”
He spread his hands and continued, "Since the position of sect leader has been vacant for a long time, I don't really care who has the ability and who wants to sit in that position. ”
"Do you understand what I mean?"
Wei Yuanji thought about it seriously now, with the past behavior of this young sect master, this matter was not completely impossible.
All the young sect leader cares about is pleasure, all he needs is a backer who can make him intoxicated in peace.
Bai Xiuping said with a look of regret: "I originally thought that you and I had the same thoughts, so I came to Jubao Palace to meet you." ”
"I didn't expect that your Treasure Palace first tried to murder me, and then was arrogant and rude to me, such an attitude really disappointed me."
After that, he sighed deeply, as if muttering to himself: "If I knew this was the case, it would be better to go to Tongyin Palace, whoever is the sect leader is the same." ”
As a qualified sixth child, outstanding acting skills are a must.
After Bai Xiuping's performance, he inadvertently glanced at Wei Yuanji, only to see Wei Yuanji's face full of excitement and staring at him with a grin.
At this moment, Wei Yuanji had an uncontrollable smile on his face.
He was happy from the bottom of his heart, and laughed and said, "It's really offensive to be too worried about all kinds of troubles recently, and to take poor care of you." ”
"Please have a lot of adults, forgive the villain."
The other party's words were already obvious enough, if he didn't understand this, Wei Yuanji would have to scold himself.
Then he came to Bai Xiuping's side with a smile and said with a flattering smile: "The villain is also worried about how to deal with my rude stupid son." ”
"The villain and the Treasure Palace have shown their loyalty to you, and they have always thought about how to solve your troubles."
Businessman, naturally, says that if you change your face, you will change your face, and if there is a benefit, the other party is the uncle.
Now in Mingjiao, what is more attractive than the position of the leader?
Even if they are not the nominal sect leader of the Treasure Palace, they can listen to the government and hold real power, it is much better than relying on the Martial Punishment Palace.
Bai Xiuping leaned on the back of the chair a little carelessly, and said lazily: "Really? Let's talk about how you plan to solve my troubles. ”
Wei Yuanji straightened up, touched his long beard with some pride, and said, "I have prepared a gift for you, a gift that you will definitely be satisfied with." ”
"Gifts?"
Bai Xiuping was really a little curious about Wei Yuanji's gift.
This guy has always looked proud and mysterious when he mentions the gifts he has prepared.
"Yes, a very rare and valuable thing, and something of great significance."
Then clapped his hands and called for Du Wentao to come in.
After a while, Du Wentao came in with a box, which turned out to be made of rosewood.
The material of the box alone is already so high-quality.
Du Wentao put the box on the desk, and Bai Xiuping watched him open it with some curiosity.
"It's ....."
Bai Xiuping, who was originally leaning on the back of the chair with an indifferent face, also became serious and said, "Short sword? ”
The bronze scabbard is carved with ancient lines, and the scabbard spreads like fire.
The front of the scabbard and the hilt of the sword are inlaid with gold wires, and the blade is not out of the box, and you can already feel the layers of green energy it exudes.
This sword can be imagined, it must have an extraordinary origin.
Bai Xiuping used to be the son of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and he didn't see any divine blades, but this sword really made his heart tremble for no reason.
Wei Yuanji, who was standing on the side, was even more triumphant when he saw this: "I don't know if the young sect master, have you ever heard of the Five Holy Weapons of the Ming Sect?" ”
The Five Sacred Vessels of Mingjiao.
Bai Xiuping's pupils shrank, how could he not know the Five Sacred Weapons of the Ming Sect, how proudly Nalan Jingzhi introduced the Holy Fire Mask, one of the Five Holy Weapons.
That appearance is somewhat similar to the current Wei Yuanji.
Bai Xiuping also gradually reacted, the sword in front of him, could it be?
Wei Yuanji stroked the sword box and grinned, "That's right, this is the Holy Fire Sword, one of the five holy weapons that I specially prepared for you, Young Sect Master. ”
"What do you think? Are you satisfied? ”
Not to mention their particularity and significance, the Five Sacred Weapons of Mingjiao are all powerful weapons in themselves.
The flame mask can hide the temperament of the face, and in the eyes of others, it is like seeing a mountain in a deep fog, but it is majestic but not visible.
And the role of the Holy Fire Sword is simple and sharp.
Sharp enough to cut through everything.
It's just that the Five Sacred Weapons have long been missing, and I didn't expect that the Holy Fire Sword of the Lord Killing would be in the hands of the Treasure Palace.
Bai Xiuping didn't expect this at all, he really underestimated the Treasure Palace, no wonder Wei Yuanji looked so confident just now.
Who dares to say that they are not moved by the Five Sacred Weapons?
What's more, the Five Sacred Vessels have a very lofty significance in Mingjiao.
Wei Yuanji proudly approached Bai Xiuping's side and said with a smile: "This is a holy weapon that even the Sect Master has not been able to find." ”
"The capable live in it, now only the young sect master of the Ming Sect is worthy of the Holy Fire Sword, thinking that the holy weapon can only be dusted in the Treasure Palace, the villain is guilty in his heart."
After that, Wei Yuanji also sighed deeply, as if expressing his regret.
Bai Xiuping was too lazy to watch the other party's performance, and he never spoke, just staring at the Holy Fire Sword.
Naturally, he had his thoughts in his heart.
Wei Yuanji didn't care, the more Bai Xiuping cared about the Holy Fire Sword, it meant that the higher the value of this gift, which meant that he didn't send it wrong.
As long as the other party is moved, then the next thing will be easy to do.
"Now, the villain will give the Holy Fire Sword to the Young Sect Master."
Hearing this, Bai Xiuping slowly raised his head and looked at Wei Yuanji.
Wei Yuanji opened his hands and laughed: "Not only that, but the Treasure Palace will also prepare enough gold bars for the Yangming Palace every month in the future to give to the Young Sect Master." ”
"And I'll help you build a palace that's bigger and more luxurious than the Treasure Palace, so ......"
There is no such thing as a free lunch, the Five Sacred Vessels, and the promise of countless gold and silver treasures, and this gift is indeed big enough.
But it also means that the requirements will not be low.
Bai Xiu said indifferently: "So what? What do you want? ”
Businessmen are not philanthropists, and they don't come up with loss-making trades.
Seeing Bai Xiuping asking, Wei Yuanji felt that the fish had already taken the bait, and it was time to collect the net.
He said with emotion: "Now that the Ming Sect is in chaos and has serious internal divisions, the villain is really sad to see this. ”
"Don't waste everyone's time, get down to business."
Bai Xiuping interrupted coldly.
Wei Yuanji was not annoyed, but continued: "Young Sect Master, you are willing to join forces with the Treasure Palace, and it should be the Young Sect Master who inherits the position of the Sect Master. ”
He patted his chest and said loudly: "Jubao Palace will help you, I, Wei Yuanji, will also support the Young Sect Master to ascend to the position of Sect Master." ”
How sincere it is, those who don't know still think that Wei Yuanji is a loyal and good minister.
But this trick Bai Xiuping is not uncommon, and it doesn't work for him at all.
Is he really the scoundrel young sect leader who has achieved nothing?
Bai Xiuping sneered, stared at Wei Yuanji, and slowly spoke: "Do you want me to become the sect leader of the Ming Sect?" ”
The position of the leader of the Ming Sect, how many people are eyeing it now, this Wei Yuanji's words are beautiful, but in fact, he is pushing Bai Xiuping into the fire pit.
Not to mention the most powerful martial arts palace, its palace master Gongsun Huai ranks second in the Mingjiao sequence ranking book, second only to the existence of the missing Mingjiao master.
There are also major forces such as the Hidden Killing Palace, the Council of Elders, etc.
The key is how many masters are still hidden in the 100,000 mountains, and how many forces are still in the secret, no one can tell.
Nalan Jingzhi had reminded that if Bai Xiuping now indicated that he wanted to compete for the position of sect leader, he would inevitably become the first person targeted by the major forces.
But now Wei Yuanji asked Bai Xiuping to take the initiative to compete for the position of the sect leader, and his heart can be seen.
