Chapter 248: Kunlun Falls
Shi Qianqiu was walking around nervously inside, and there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and he walked out with a frown, just bumping into the disciple who looked panicked.
Shi Qianqiu steadied his footsteps, wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at the disciple in front of him, and scolded unhappily: "When were you so flustered?"
The disciple wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his panicked expression did not subside, and his voice was a little flustered.
"The Lord is not good, there are many monks outside the mountain gate, and people from several major sects are gathered outside the door, and they want to ask you for an explanation. ”
Shi Qianqiu sighed in his heart, knowing that something was wrong, and said in a deep voice: "Take me quickly!"
After just a few steps, he suddenly stopped again, and Shi Qianqiu instructed the disciple, "You go and gather a few elders to come over." ”
After giving the order, he walked towards the mountain gate without stopping.
It seemed to him that since those people could wait for his summons from outside the mountain, there was still room for things to turn around.
However, this was just wishful thinking on his part, and the matter was actually much more serious than the disciple had reported to him. Before he reached the mountain gate, Shi Qianqiu heard the sound of fighting, and the closed mountain gate had been broken open by external forces at this moment.
At this moment, a group of gatekeeper disciples are still there stubbornly resisting.
Seeing this, Shi Qianqiu immediately spoke out to stop: "Stop!"
Everyone followed the sound and looked over, and saw that Shi Qianqiu came out, but he didn't continue to make a move, straightened his clothes, and looked upright and polite, as if what happened was just his illusion.
Shi Qianqiu's face did not improve at all, he looked at the sect masters of the various sects with a calm face, and the familiar faces now showed clear ill intentions in his eyes.
"What do you mean by coming to my Kunlun Mountain today?" because he was angry, Shi Qianqiu's tone was also very bad.
The people of the other four major sects all looked at Shui Yiren, and they all obviously respected Shui Yiren.
Shui Yiren looked like a Maitreya Buddha and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is the old lord of Shi Qianqiu, doesn't it mean that you have abdicated to make way for Xian?
"Poof, hahaha-" As Shui Yiren's words fell, bursts of laughter erupted in the crowd, making it clear that everyone was laughing at him.
Shi Qianqiu's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, but now that the situation was grim, he couldn't shake his face like before, but said with a sneer: "It has been some time since the old man returned to power, and I wrote to you a few days ago to explain, it seems that Grandmaster Xuan Miao doesn't know yet." ”
Shui Yiren also said on this ramp: "I see, it seems that I am too busy on weekdays, and I am really sorry to miss such important news!"
I said that, but I didn't mean to be sorry at all.
Shi Qianqiu was angry in his heart, but now he couldn't allow him to show his emotions, so he had to ask quietly: "What are you doing on this trip?"
However, instead of an answer, he received an ill-intentioned suggestion.
"There are so many people in our group, and the old lord Shi didn't invite us to come in and sit down? It seems that the old lord has not been in power for a long time, and he has even forgotten this kind of hospitality. ”
It was Zhang Peng who spoke, and now he was a proper celebrity in front of Shui Yiren, and even his standing position was only behind the four major sects.
Shi Qianqiu secretly hated, if it was the scene in the past, let alone this little Zhang Peng, even Shui Yiren was not qualified to be so arrogant in front of him.
Unexpectedly, after only a few years of hard work, they would be so arrogant, and he Kunlun Mountain was still so weak.
In this way, Shi Qianqiu was even more determined to get the secret of the time travel technique from Qingzi.
He collected all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's my mistake, please come inside." ”
He stood aside, bent slightly to guide the crowd.
By the way, he also instructed the disciples on the side to prepare tea for the sect masters.
However, when his eyes saw the dense disciples behind those sect masters, the alarm bell in his heart rang again.
So he said, "Fellow Daoists, why don't I arrange some good inns for these disciples to live in?"
There are tens of thousands of disciples here, where can a few inns be able to stay, and what he said is just a disguised statement: You can come in, and these disciples will be exempted.
However, he still didn't realize how humble his status was now, not to mention that he was no longer inconspicuous in the eyes of everyone, and the purpose of their coming did not allow them to follow Shi Qianqiu's advice.
Everyone turned their attention to Shui Yiren, and Shui Yiren said with a smile: "There is no need to be so troublesome, they are all ordinary monks, where can they still use the old lord when they are tired, just find a place to live in the mountain gate and give them a place to live, and let them learn from the disciples of Guishan Gate, it is the best." ”
Shi Qianqiu's face suddenly changed, so many people, how could he let them enter his Kunlun Mountain, if he let them in, then his Kunlun Mountain would be equivalent to sending sheep into the tiger's mouth, termites crossing, and the mountain gate was destroyed!
Seeing that he was hesitating, Shui Yiren lowered his eyebrows and said coldly: "Why, Old Lord Shi looks down on us immortal sects and is unwilling to receive our disciples......?"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shi Qianqiu, and he said: "Actually, I have always wanted to discuss something with you, and now it is just waiting for you to come, why don't we discuss it first, and then I am arranging accommodation for these disciples, how about it?"
Shui Yiren glanced at him deeply, but he didn't refuse, and finally relieved himself in Shi Qianqiu's worried gaze.
"If that's the case, then we really need to talk about it. ”
Shi Qianqiu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled even more flatteringly, "Then please come with me." ”
Shi Qianqiu thought about gesturing behind him, and led everyone to the conference hall.
The remaining disciples who guarded the gate got Shi Qianqiu's order and directly closed the mountain gate again.
Entering the conference hall, in fact, everyone knew what was going on, especially Shi Qianqiu, who also knew what everyone was here for, so he spoke first: "I can guess one or two of your intentions, presumably it is for Ci Yuehua and Qingzi." ”
Shui Yiren glanced at each other quietly, and said with a blank expression: "It is indeed for these two people, it seems that the old lord is also self-aware." ”
Shi Qianqiu secretly gritted his teeth and said: "Then do you know that as early as the day they returned to the mountain gate, my Kunlun Mountain had already announced that these two people no longer had the slightest relationship with my Kunlun Mountain. ”
This time, several people did not pretend to be deaf and dumb, and nodded one after another. "We've heard a little bit of that. ”
Shi Qianqiu breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Speaking of which, I Kunlun Mountain really can't completely stay out of the matter, a grandmaster is the heir of the Ghost Emperor, and a disciple is a daisy essence, and I am about to blame it, and it is indeed my Kunlun Mountain that has no eyes and no beads, and I have accepted the wrong disciple." ”
He thought that his slap in the face would resonate with him, but he didn't expect to see the relieved appearance of several sect masters led by Shui Yiren.
He was puzzled in his heart, and naturally he would not know about Shui Yiren's worries.
They are indeed afraid that Qingzi will directly tell their identity in Kunlun Mountain, and if it is spread by this person and dog jumping over the wall in a hurry, so that the sect that has been concealed from them will know, they are afraid that there will be more trouble.
At this time, it seems that they are too careful, and everyone in Kunlun Mountain is still in the dark.
But thinking about it, if Shi Qianqiu really knew Qingzi's true body, even if he couldn't get Qingzi, he would do everything he could to tie her up, how could he expel them from the division in a stubborn manner, and even his own son would show no mercy.
Thinking of this, several shallower-minded sect masters looked at Shi Qianqiu with a hint of sympathy.
I also secretly asked in my heart: Do you know what miracle medicine you have expelled?
Shui Yiren didn't show much of a look, but nodded very dryly: "Your sect is indeed wrong, and it's not just such a mistake. At that time, my disciples in the Hanging Pot Cave had already pointed out their identities in eight or nine ways, but not only did you not hand them over, but you also fought against our immortal sects to protect them, which made our fellow Daoists very dissatisfied. ”
When Shui Yiren said this, his eyes also glanced at Song Changqi, who had been sitting silently outside the crowd.
This time Song Changqi's Qingfeng Gate also came, and his heart was also very uncalm at the moment, because at that time, a disciple of Qingfeng Gate secretly went to the Hanging Pot Cave and knew the identities of Ci Yuehua and Qingzi.
And then the identities of Yuehua and Qingzi were exposed, and the entire immortal cultivation world knew about it. Even if he wanted to, it would be impossible to protect them.
What's more, there are elders who have been instilling conspiracy theories in his ears, which also makes him wonder.
It's too coincidental, the Qingfeng Gate accident was indeed the handiwork of the ghost clan, and they appeared too timely at the critical moment.
The moment when Captain Song was killed was also in the presence of them, and it was also when they wanted to tell the real murderer behind the scenes, I have to say that the timing of everything was too coincidental, so that when they think about it at the moment, they will really feel that everything is full of conspiracy.
So Song Changqi came here for the purpose of finding the truth.
He wanted to ask the two men face to face, to ask them if they had anything to do with what had happened in the first place, to ask if they had been deceiving themselves all along.
At this moment, hearing the words alluded to by Shui Yiren, he couldn't help but have a hint of surprise on his face.
If they had nothing to do with it, then he did the right thing.
Can...... If they are the real culprits behind that incident, then he has done a big stupid thing, not only treating the enemy as a close friend, but also wishful thinking to protect them, I am afraid that the whole world will not find out who is so stupid as him.
In this case, what face does he have to take charge of Qingfengmen, and what face does he have to go down to see his father and mother?
I have to say that Song Changqi is really thinking a lot at this moment, and he is thinking about all bad things.
Perhaps in his heart, he already had a preconceived idea that all this was really a conspiracy between Ci Yuehua and Qingzi.
Seeing the expression on Song Changqi's face, Shui Yiren secretly sneered, this is the so-called friendship alliance, how long did it last?
He wanted to see what kind of expression Ci Yuehua had when he saw this Qingfeng Gate who was saved by himself standing on the opposite side of him.
Shi Qianqiu also had a sneering expression, "At the beginning, it was also my unassuming rebel who was deceived by this master and apprentice, if he did anything unpleasant to you, I am here to make amends for him." ”
"Hehehe, what Lord Shi said, we all know that your good son has broken away from Kunlun Mountain with his ghost clan master. I don't know how sincere you can be in making amends?"
Shi Qianqiu clenched his fists and immediately spoke: "It's all that son of a who was deceived and didn't know it, and I am also waiting to arrest that pair of masters and apprentices before I can turn him back." ”
"Listening to the words of the old lord of the time, do you not care about the past friendship with the ghost clan at all?" Zhang Peng said again.
Shi Qianqiu said with a calm face: "Where did the past friendship come from? We have been kept in the dark by him, if it weren't for him, how could my Kunlun Mountain cause so many troubles?"
"Then it seems that the old lord really doesn't plan to make peace with this ghost clan?"
"The position is different, I, Kunlun Mountain, will never be in the same stream as the ghost clan. ”
Shi Qianqiu's statement was very timely, he thought that if he said so, these people would have no reason to put charges on him.
However, these people didn't come here to negotiate with him, they not only wanted to remove the entire Kunlun Mountain, but also used them to attract resignation from Yuehua, how could they be brought by him in a few words?
"Old Lord Shi won't think that he wants to get rid of his crimes with just a few words, at the beginning, the disciples of our various sects and sects lost a lot in your Kunlun Mountain. ”
Shui Yiren finally spoke, and as soon as he spoke, he forcefully charged Shi Qianqiu with a crime.
Shi Qianqiu was shocked, and hurriedly admitted his mistake, "It's my Kunlun Mountain's mistake, and I ask you to give Kunlun Mountain a chance to atone for my sins." ”
Shui Yiren said: "It's not impossible to atone for your sins, as long as you can bring Ci Yuehua out, it can also be called atonement." ”
Shi Qianqiu's face changed, and he said with some embarrassment: "This ...... It's not that I don't want to find them, it's just that I don't know where they live now, and besides...... With my current relationship with him, I am afraid that he will not listen to me. ”
Originally, he thought that if he said this, these people would be angry, but when he looked up, these people were not angry at all, but there was a smile on the corner of their mouths.
Shi Qianqiu was puzzled in his heart, when he heard Shui Yiren give him an answer, "I have a way to let him out, it depends on whether you are willing to cooperate." ”
Shi Qianqiu didn't think much about it, and nodded hurriedly: "If you can atone for your sins because of this, Shi Mou's liver and brain will not hesitate!"
"Very good. Shui Yiren stroked his palm and smiled, "Old Lord Shi will definitely be able to achieve his wish." ”
After saying that, he gave a slight high-five, and then still laughed.
Before Shi Qianqiu could understand what was going on, he saw that the few elders who had been called before were all disheveled at the moment, and their clothes were stained with blood and ran in.
"Venerable Lord, something is wrong, the group of disciples outside the mountain has attacked!"
"What ???" Shi Qianqiu's face was shocked, and his hands couldn't help shaking.
He stared at Shui Yiren with wide eyes, and only when he saw that the other party's expression did not fluctuate without any fluctuations, did he realize that he had been tricked by them.
"Grandmaster Xuanmiao, what do you mean by this?" Shi Qianqiu asked in a cold voice, he hadn't done it yet, if the mountain gate was gone now, how would he complete his great cause?
