Chapter Ninety-Nine: Add some spices
"Today's picks are some hard stubble, and tomorrow there are only soft persimmons, and I will definitely be faster. ”
"How fast?"
"Ten more is not a problem. ”
Li Xiu nodded and said, "Starting tomorrow, you can only challenge five forces a day. ”
Liang Xiaodao flickered for a moment, puzzled: "Why?"
"Wait for individuals, it will take some time. ”
Li Xiu explained that he did not say who to wait for.
It's just that Liang Xiaodao naturally knew, he thought about it, and suddenly asked, "Xue Wuye will do it here?"
This is the Lingxiao Palace, the old nest of Wanxiang City, no matter how angry Xue Wuye is, he won't just do it directly without shame, right?
"He wants to do it, but not here and not himself. ”
It is very late, the Lingxiao Hall is very high, standing in the clouds and looking up at the bright moon and stars will always have a different and unique feeling, because the moon is very large, the structure is very clear, and the stars are twinkling brighter.
"Then why worry?"
"Afterwards, it is inevitable to do one, Wanxiang City is the leader of the wasteland, and there are many subsidiary forces like stars, and there are always some people who can't sit still. ”
"Since you have to do it sooner or later, why bother now?"
Liang Xiaodao glanced at Li Xiu, with a little disdain on his face.
Li Xiu ignored it, got up from the bench and said hello to Ye Xiu and the others, and then returned to the house, he had been running around a lot recently, he wanted to have a good night's sleep.
Li Yinan and Liang Xiaodao glanced at each other, then looked down at a large table of dishes on the table, sighed and said, "It's good now, I don't even eat food, it seems that something terrible must have happened today." ”
Liang Xiaodao pouted and said, "Whatever, let's eat ours." ”
Tonight was a smooth and quiet night for everyone, with soft moonlight and a light night breeze.
But for those of other forces, tonight is destined to be a restless night.
Xiao Yushan lost, which means that no one can win against Li Xiu, and Xue Wuye will not be reconciled.
There is bound to be a turmoil in the future, and the most important thing is Li Xiu's identity, he is the son of the Tang Dynasty, but he came to Huangzhou to stir up the situation, does this mean that the Tang Congress has any big moves?
No one can think these things clearly, and no one can guess them thoroughly.
In the main store of the Lingxiao Palace, there were only two people in the empty hall.
Xue Wuye sat on the main seat above, and an old man sat on the guest seat below.
It was the accompanying elder who had escorted Zhou Yuan, Miss Rui, Luo Fuyuan and others to the academy to participate in the trial of the sea of books, the peak monk of the Five Realms, and the fourth elder of the Holy Sect.
"The four elders came to visit late at night, what is the so-called?"
Xue Wuye asked lightly leaning back in his chair, his arms propped up on the edge of the chair, and gently holding his forehead.
"The young city lord is a smart person, so why bother pretending to be confused?"
The four elders held the teacup and said lightly.
Xue Wuye didn't speak, he closed his eyes and recuperated himself, obviously he was much more patient than the Holy Sect.
After a while, the four elders put down the teacup and said softly: "The young city lord must also know that even Su Ziyu was defeated by Li Xiu, and no one can defeat him in the rest of the many forces, and when the time comes, I am afraid that my Holy Sect will also be forced to withdraw from this sword trial conference, so that we will not look good on both sides." ”
Half-squinted eyes opened slightly, and Xue Wuye asked with a snort, "Then I don't know what the four elders have to say?"
"If we want to save face, it's nothing more than stopping in advance and retaliating afterwards, and all we need to do is make a fuss on these two roads. ”
The Fourth Elder pondered for a moment and said.
Xue Wuye's eyes were completely opened, and he glanced at him lightly, with a hint of irony in his heart, and now he still wants to watch from the wall, and wants to take advantage of Wanxiang City, I am afraid that you are thinking too much.
He lowered his head and pretended to think about it for a moment, and then said meaningfully: "There is actually another way to save face, this matter is because of your Holy Sect, my Wanxiang City is just a middleman, if no one really participates in the sword trial conference in the future, then I just need to stand up and show my broad-mindedness, regardless of these gains and losses, so that it can be regarded as a real face-saving and can also make the world look up to it, isn't it?"
The fourth elder's face sank slightly: "What does the young city lord mean by this?"
Xue Wuye smiled slightly, and then his face turned cold, and said lightly: "I advise the fourth elder to find out his position, is it that the Holy Sect has been in the limelight too much in recent years, so that the elders think that they are really the sixth major force, but there are not many people who dare to talk to me like this, Xue Wuye!"
The pupils of the four elders shrank slightly, and the teacup in their hands was fixed in front of them, and the atmosphere between the two was quiet and a little depressing.
Xue Wuye didn't care about this, leaning back in his chair with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Half an hour later, with the sound of the teacup falling on the table, the words of the four elders resounded in the main hall again: "The matter between Li Xiu and Cong Xiaoxiao will definitely not end easily, and the sword trial conference is just an appetizer for him." ”
"And this son is like a whimsical and difficult to target, and he is good at manipulating the general trend, if you want to deal with it, you have to deal with it earlier, and the longer it drags on, it is not a good thing for the young city lord and my holy sect. ”
"It's impossible to stop it beforehand, so we can only look after it. ”
A faint fragrance of tea lingered in the main hall, and the four elders said.
Xue Wuye tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something, and said after a while: "Li Xiu is a smart person, and he is a rare smart person in the world, you can never think about what he wants to do next when dealing with such a person, you can only think about what he wants to achieve." ”
The Fourth Elder frowned, revealing an expression of willingness to hear about it.
Xue Wuye continued: "I have read the records about him in Tiance, and I have also ordered people to collect things about him, and I can draw two conclusions, the first thing he did when he came to Huangzhou was to marry Cong Xiaoxiao, and the second thing was to do it for the Book of Heavens. ”
"Then we only need to guard these two purposes, and he will naturally fall into the net. ”
The fourth elder asked, "According to the circulation once every ten years, the current Book of Heavens is in the Moro Cliff, and it should take some time for Li Xiu to take it, so the top priority now is the marriage between him and Cong Xiaoxiao?"
Xue Wuye nodded and said with a smile: "After the sword trial is over, with his arrogance, he will inevitably go to the Holy Sect to propose marriage, and what we have to do is very simple, when he challenges Zhai Yikuan in a while, you announce the marriage between me and Cong Xiaoxiao in front of him, so that's it." ”
People often do unexpected things when they are angry, and that is when Li Xiu is best to deal with.
The four elders didn't speak, obviously this matter had already been a consensus between the two sides, and Cong Xiaoxiao had already been secretly promised to Xue Wuye by the Holy Sect.
After a moment of silence, Xue Wuye's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said slowly: "Maybe we can't stop him in advance, but we can add some spices for him, so that it can be regarded as rich." ”
