Xue Lanyi shook her head and said, "Sister Lian, I didn't laugh. In the past few months, after thinking about it, I still think that it is most appropriate to give up the position of this palace master, and you are better than me no matter who sits there. Shen Yuzhu said angrily: "Senior Sister Xue, I didn't say anything about the side matter as a little sister." You take back what you just said, and I pretend I didn't hear it. ”

Xue Lan continued: "Yuzhu, don't worry, listen to what I say." I don't want to be the master of this palace for a reason. I am very grateful that you have taken care of my face. But I really can't go down to this palace master anymore.

As the sect leader of a faction, he failed to protect the relics of the ancestors. This is the first crime; the second crime is that the sisters are innocently killed; the traitor causes trouble, there is no way to deal with it, and the use of people is negligent, and the foundation of the door is almost ruined. With these three sins, what face do you want me to sit on?"

Xue Lanyi said these words extremely sincerely, and the three of them also had plans in their hearts. All think: More than half of the people in the Xuannu Palace Gate were killed and injured, and their vitality was already greatly damaged. If Senior Sister Xue abdicates at this time, the dragons are leaderless, and I am afraid that the situation will become more and more difficult to deal with in the future.

Shen Liu and the others were at a loss in their hearts, and Ding Wanqiu, the head of the Begonia Department, was old after all. He also saw things thoroughly, and immediately comforted: "Senior sister, all these heartfelt words you said are self-blame, so why don't we blame ourselves." It stands to reason that you are the palace master, what do you say, and the sisters will listen to you. But I don't approve of this, the two of them have the same mind as me. ”

Xue Lanyi sighed and said, "Sister, I'm old, maybe one day the deadline is approaching, and I will die." Rather than distracting you later, it is better to make it clear tonight. The position of the palace master, I plan to give it up. ”

Liu Qinglian interjected: "Absolutely not. Senior sister, you know the current situation of our Xuannu Palace, after this battle, people's hearts are scattered. The three of us tried our best to do everything well, but we couldn't do anything about it. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that this door will really be uplifted. ”

Xue Lanyi smiled and said, "Since Sister Lian has this concern, I will talk about my countermeasures." The so-called innovation can be invincible. Historically, the position of the head of this faction has not been passed on. When it comes to talent, Wei Wuwu is not below me.

At that time, the master was only partial to me, so he passed on this position to me. In my opinion, the position of head should be qualified by a person with both ability and political integrity, so as to consolidate the foundation for the faction. This is the first step in innovation. The position of the palace master is capable, and in order to prevent him from holding power for a long time, he does not want to forge ahead. In the future, every five years, the selection of the palace master needs to be considered in the long run. ”

When the three of them heard this, they fell into deep thought. Liu Qinglian frowned and said, "According to Senior Sister Xue's meaning, no one in this palace master can be old. ”

Xue Lanyi said: "Exactly. In charge of the sect, it is necessary to govern it strictly. There are still many unreasonable points in the rules of this school. The door rules can only bind the disciples, not the head of the sect and the lords of each academy. Inevitably, there will be unfairness. As she spoke, she took out a square box from under her feet and opened it to the three of them. Inside is a revised door rule.

Shen Yuzhu flipped through a few pages, and suddenly said loudly: "Senior Sister Xue, there is actually a clause in the new door rules to let the disciples out of the pavilion. ”

Xue Lanyi said: "Yes, I think about it, we are old and have missed many good things in this world, but those children are still young, and they can't let them stay in this mountain for the rest of their lives." ”

Liu Qinglian also read a few pages, the words on the paper can be described as shocking, and I don't know when she had such a thought in her heart, but if she wants to say it, she will be suspected of trespassing after all. There are many innovations in the new door regulations, but there are still many difficulties in implementing them.

Xue Lanyi looked at the three of them and looked at each other, and said slowly: "If the foundation of this sect is to survive for a long time, these new rules must be implemented. I've thought about it before, but I thought about it a lot. If it is not implemented now, the foundation created by the ancestors is really in jeopardy. ”

First, Xue Lanyi's words were sudden, and secondly, the matter discussed was so important that they couldn't accept it for a while, so they had to put it into the long run. The Xuannu Palace is up and down, and the cost of food and clothing is quite huge. Although he has land and animal husbandry, he has a difficult livelihood situation. At the root of this, it also lies in personnel. Under the Ninth Hospital, the personnel are redundant. Coupled with the turmoil, the people in the palace were panicked. Ding, Liu, and Shen seem to be in the position of the lord, and their talents are limited after all. How to completely calm down this turmoil, the three of them also have no idea.

Seeing that the three of her were silent, Xue Lanyi drank a glass of wine, and slowly continued: "The so-called back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, our old sisters are all at this age, and it is time to give up their positions to young people." What do you think?"

Ding Wanqiu nodded and said, "Senior sister is right, we are old, and we are powerless in many things. But the matter of choosing the palace master is still a bit rushed, and there is a way to help the prince on the horse. We should choose a few capable and experienced disciples to train well. ”

Xue Lanyi said: "Sister Qiu's words are very much in line with my heart. Now there are only 100 people in the Ninth Academy, and there are even fewer people who can be top-notch. These disciples still need to go out and practice. We have been guarding the door for more than 30 years, and we have rarely interacted with friends in the rivers and lakes. Although many disputes have been spared, they have also suffered from them.

There is a way to be poor, and if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. Everyone doesn't want the inheritance of their ancestors to be handed over to us. According to my intentions, a few of us old guys still have to give up our old faces and rebuild old friends with other sects. ”

Ding Wanqiu pondered for a while and said: "Senior sister is right, as long as I can make the ancestral foundation everlasting, even if I dig out my heart and liver, I am willing." Xue Lanyi looked at Ding Wanqiu and smiled: "It's not necessary to dig out the heart and liver, but it's necessary to work hard." That night, after Shen and Liu left, Xue Lanyi had another explanation to Ding Wanqiu.

However, it was said that Xiao Yunfan and the others were still trapped in the cave, and there was not much ration left for them. Xiao Yu and the two were humble to each other and left all the food they saved for Ying'er.

One evening, the little wolf cub suddenly roared in a whirlwind. Hing'er took a closer look, and an object the size of a watermelon on the ground squirmed. The whirlwind stretched out its claws and threw itself at the thing, which was swarthy and shrunk, and the whirlwind could not hurt the thing several times, but instead cut its mouth at the thing.

Ying'er's eyes widened, shocked and frightened. Seeing that the whirlwind's mouth was full of blood, he hurriedly hugged it and comforted it. Then he said loudly: "Uncle Xiao, Uncle monk, come and see, what is this?" Xiao Yu and the others hurriedly turned over and sat up and walked over.

Yu Shura looked at it for a long time and was greatly surprised. He turned his head to Xiao Yunfan and asked, "Brother Xiao, you are well-informed, do you know what this is?" Xiao Yunfan looked at the thing and said with a smile: "This thing is called a pangolin, and I saw it with my master in the mountains when I was a child." It's a big one. Pangolins have a habit of shrinking into a ball when they are in danger. The scales on its body will open, don't underestimate the scales, they can be sharp and tight. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Yunfan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and his heart moved, grabbing Yu Shura's arm and saying happily: "Brother Shura, we are saved!" Yu Shura said: "Brother Xiao, you have an idea." Xiao Yunfan nodded and said, "But it's hard to say right now." We can only try. ”

It turned out that after Xiao Yunfan received the guidance of the Jade Shura, he had already comprehended the scriptures of the beast department in the Thousand Spirits Jue. He could already understand most of the beast language that the wolf cub whirlwind spit. And this pangolin belongs to a kind of beast, and it is not difficult for him to communicate with this pangolin with the help of a thousand spirit tricks.

The first party in the mountain was frightened, and after seeing that the surroundings were safe, he stretched out his body, his two small black bean-like eyes were shining, and the scale armor on his body was glowing faintly under the firelight. It slowly took two steps forward with its flat tail in its hands.

Xiao Yunfan hissed from his mouth, and the pangolin hissed as he spit out its slender tongue. It turned out that the pangolin was looking for some water, so Xiao Yunfan stepped aside and poured the water from the crockpot on the ground.

Ying'er looked at the pangolin intently, and Jade Shura was also amazed. After a while, Xiao Yunfan hissed again, and the pangolin seemed to be gradually humanizing, waving its front paws, and then turning around and slowly burrowing back into the original hole.

Yu Shura said: "Brother Xiao, what did you say to this pangolin, how did it go?" Xiao Yunfan said: "This old man said that he was willing to help us, but it has to go back to the cave to eat something." We're not the first to live here, it's the owner of this place. ”

After a short time, the original pangolin crawled out of one hole, followed by four more. Xiao Yunfan said: "Thank you, thank you." The people got out of the way and let the pangolin climb up to the boulder.

The large, black pangolin stretched out its front paws and slammed into the boulder. It searched for many places in a row, and finally settled on one place. Five pangolins took turns digging, and at dawn, a two-foot-sized hole was revealed under the boulder.

Xiao Yunfan folded his hands and said to the pangolin: "Thank you brother Ren for your help, if it is useful to the younger brother, you can just speak." The leading pangolin hissed again, and Xiao Yunfan nodded, "Little brother understands." Rest well, all of you. ”

Yu Shura looked at the entrance of the cave and smiled bitterly: "This pangolin is really powerful, such a boulder has been carved out of a gap. It's a pity that this hole is too small, don't say it's you and me, even Ying'er may not be able to drill out. ”

Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "They have already helped us a lot, pangolins like to go out day and night, as long as we can survive until tomorrow night, there may be a way to do it in a little while." ”

The two of them watched it all night, and their hearts were happy, but after all, they were a little tired, and they fell asleep in a trance. After a long time, they woke up and saw Ying'er sitting in the corner, her hands on her knees, sobbing quietly. Xiao Yunfan saw tears on her little face, and said with pity: "What's the matter? Who made you angry, why did you cry alone?"

Ying'er raised her head, her mouth flattened, and she cried even more. While crying, he said, "Uncle Xiao, the whirlwind has run away." I can't find it. Xiao Yunfan understood in his heart and comforted: "Okay, Whirlwind is an ungrateful guy, people often say white-eyed wolf, white-eyed wolf, although Whirlwind's eyes are not white, but it still runs away ungratefully." ”

Ying'er shook her head and said, "Whirlwind is not a white-eyed wolf, it has always been very obedient. I don't know why it ran away without a sound. Where will it go?" Xiao Yunfan nodded, touched Ying'er's head and said softly: "The whirlwind is naturally not a white-eyed wolf, it is Uncle Xiao who is joking with you, maybe the whirlwind is hungry, and he went out to find food, maybe he will come back." You think Whirlwind likes Ying'er the most, it must be worried that Ying'er has nothing to eat, so he will find you something to eat. ”

Ying'er stopped crying, looked at Xiao Yunfan and said, "Uncle Xiao, did you say it will really come back?" Xiao Yunfan frowned and said, "If it finds its parents, it will naturally not come back." Ying'er muttered, "Parents, yes, if the whirlwind finds its parents, it will be very happy, very happy......"

Xiao Yunfan knew that Ying'er thought of her parents again, and her heart was sad. So he picked her up and held her in his arms. After some time, Xiao Yunfan was telling Ying'er a story, and Yu Shura sat aside and listened. Suddenly, there were several wolf howls from outside the cave. Xiao Yu's faces changed, and they jumped up at the same time. Fortunately, the entrance to the cave was sealed by a boulder, and the hole in the boulder was also very narrow.

Although the wolves are outside the cave, there is nothing they can do. At this moment, the hole slowly revealed two short hairy legs, followed by a small head. Ying'er looked at the little guy and hurriedly ran over. smiled and said, "Whirlwind, you're finally back." ”

Whirlwind stuck out his tongue, licked her shoes, circled her, and burrowed into the little hole. I saw a hare dragged in. Seeing this, Xiao Yunfan smiled and said, "Ying'er, you're right, the whirlwind is not a white-eyed wolf, you see it is bringing us food." ”

Ying'er picked up the whirlwind and stroked its head with her little hands. At this time, another wolf howl came from outside the cave. The whirlwind jumped from Ying'er's arms to the ground. He shouted twice at the crowd and got out of the hole again. Ying'er hurriedly walked forward and said, "Whirlwind, whirlwind, where are you going?"

Xiao Yunfan slowly walked behind her and said, "The whirlwind has found its parents, and it just said that it will come back." So saying, he bent down, lifted the hare on the ground, and said with a grin, "It seems that we can have a full meal tonight." ”

At night, the pangolins kept their promise. After another night's work, the hole was enlarged by them. For five days, whirlwinds brought food to the cave during the day and pangolins dug holes at night.

By the morning of the fifth day, there were enough holes in the boulder for an adult to crawl out. Xiao Yunfan and the others were very grateful to the pangolins and wanted to give them something in return. Those pangolins don't ask for anything. The Spirit Rhino Sutra on the boulder Xiao Yu and the others were already familiar with it, and they originally planned to destroy it, but it was strange to say that those Sanskrit words seemed to be perceived by a mysterious power, and they actually disappeared before the two of them could move. After that, the three of them said goodbye to the wolf cub whirlwind. Ying'er was young after all, and she cried many times along the way.
