Chapter 190: Summit Negotiations
After hearing what Hu Bing said, Zhu Xie immediately shook his head and said, "No, this is undoubtedly the most dangerous method." If it is indeed their doing, it proves that they have a deep grudge against you, and if you go alone, you will fall into their trap. As a teacher, you will never be allowed to risk your life. ”
"Master, now it seems that this is the only way to go. With my cultivation, it will be difficult for them to hurt me no matter what. Please grant this request to your disciple. ”
Hu Bing's voice was already a little choked at this time, her eyes were slightly red, and the negative emotions that had been accumulated for a long time seemed to explode at any time.
Of course, Zhu Xie knows Hu Bing's current strength, and he also understands her extremely anxious mood now. Xiaomei is the only person Hu Bing has been close to since he started, and there is no difference between the intimacy and the real relatives, Hu Bing absolutely can't bear to let his lover be hurt even the slightest.
"I can send two men to negotiate with you so that you can be safe, do you think?"
Zhu Xie's suggestion out of concern was immediately rejected by Hu Bing.
"Absolutely not, Master, I just said that you must not startle the snake now, and bringing people over is undoubtedly to show that Master already knows that they are the culprits, so it is easy to make the other party lose control of their emotions and the consequences are unimaginable. ”
"Alas, Bing'er, you do have a point, but I'm still worried about your safety. Your senior sister's whereabouts are unknown now, if even you have three longs and two shorts, then Master, I..."
Speaking of this, Zhu Xie's sad memories were once again evoked, and as he spoke, he felt that his voice had become a little hoarse, and there was no way to continue.
"Master..."
Hu Bing saw that Zhu Xie's mood fluctuated a lot, and he also knew that he was genuinely worried about himself, and he didn't know what he should say at the moment.
After this sad and oppressive atmosphere lasted for a while, it was Zhu Xie who was the first to speak.
"Bing'er, it's because the master has too many concerns, there is no problem with your judgment, maybe only in this way can you have a chance to rescue Xiaomei, I can't refuse this request, you go." ”
The hoarse and deep voice was full of helplessness.
Hu Bing saw that Zhu Xie agreed to his request, but he could still feel a trace of sourness in his heart.
She knew the danger of going alone to meet with those disciples, and if they were indeed the ones who had taken Xiaomei captive, the situation could easily become irreparable. These worries and worries in Master's heart, she herself did not have. After all, there is no one in this world who does not cherish his life.
But the relationship between Zhu Mei and her can no longer be described by the simple word master and apprentice. The nearly 60 years that the two have experienced together have made their hearts tightly connected, like the closest sisters. Even if you are separated for a short time, you will feel reluctant, let alone hurt one of them.
Hu Bing made up his mind that no matter what price he had to pay, he must save Xiaomei from the dire situation.
In the early morning of the second day, Hu Bing's expected situation really happened in front of him. A figure flashed in front of the door of her room, leaving a note on the door.
From this moment on, Hu Bing was already convinced that Zhu Mei had indeed fallen into the hands of those disciples who hated him
It is gradually developing in the worst direction.
Hu Bing walked out of the room, tore off the note on the door, and wrote six large red characters in cinnabar.
"At the end of the day, the top of the blue dome. ”
The vicinity of Biqiong Peak is the place where Zhu Mei disappeared, and such an obvious metaphor has exposed their intentions. Hu Bing knew that if she couldn't reach the peak of the Blue Dome within the allotted time, maybe her favorite disciple would leave this world forever.
The cruelty of reality made Hu Bing dare not take any risks, and from the moment she made the decision to "obey" the other party's arrangement, her fate began to be in the hands of others.
So at the dawn of this day, Hu Bing came to the top of the Blue Dome Peak, and a moment later another person also came as promised.
Hu Bing stood quietly, his face indifferent.
On the opposite side of Hu Bing is a fellow brother she has always been unforgettable.
Soon after she started, this person frequently insulted her with bad language, and since then, all kinds of harassment have been endless. For more than 500 years, this person has been like a demon seeking his life, which has made Hu Bing uneasy.
This senior brother is seven feet tall, and his appearance is not ugly, after all, there are few people in the White Fox clan who are not good-looking. But this man has a frivolous demeanor and a lewd expression, and just one glance can make people see that he is not a good type.
When he saw that Hu Bing, who had come to the appointment, he didn't say a word, so he couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "A smart person like you should understand why I called you out?"
Hu Bing snorted coldly, and did not answer his question directly, but asked in turn: "Was Zhu Mei kidnapped by your group?"
Hu Bing's voice at this moment is like a glacier in Beiju Luzhou that has not melted for thousands of years, cold and rigid.
"Do you need to ask? It's not us, who else do you think there is?"
He replied lightly, as if the kidnapping of Zhu Mei was a matter of course.
"By the way, I haven't told you my name yet. My name is Zhu Ren, so that Senior Sister Hu Bing will not have to blindly use a word you in the future. ”
Hearing Zhu Ren report his name, Hu Bing immediately asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the current head of the family this name and give you a serious crime?"
Zhu Ren shook his head decisively, and said confidently: "I have never stopped monitoring you, and I know very well the relationship between you and Zhu Mei. You must know the fate of reporting my name to Zhu Xie, even if you are given a hundred guts, you will definitely not gamble with the life of your apprentice. ”
Seeing that Zhu Ren had no doubt that he would inform Zhu Xie of this matter, Hu Bing's heart relaxed a little, and he followed Zhu Ren's words and said, "You do know me quite well, but I don't know why you have come to me again and again to find trouble. I pride myself on never doing anything to infringe on the interests of my fellow students, and please tell me the reason behind it. ”
"Hahaha..."
When Zhu Ren heard this, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile, as if he felt that Hu Bing had just told a joke.
"It's just that intelligence comes first, understanding comes first, and I don't even know why I'm being bullied. Since it is not because of a conflict of interest, there is only one possibility left. ”
The expression on Zhu Ren's face
gradually became hideous, expressing the disgust and disgust that overflowed from the bottom of my heart.
"It's just an extremely lowly Hu clansman, but he can be favored by Zhu Xie and become his descendant disciple. Hu Bing, you can have today's cultivation because you have seized the resources that belong to us. I believe that before long, you will be ordained an elder, under one man, above ten thousand. If you wait until Zhu Xie abdicates, you may succeed as the next generation of heads, enjoy supreme power, and trample all the Zhu clan under your feet, and at that time, we can only let you ravage. Once the villain is successful, the entire Soul Cult will suffer. Rather than resist at that time, it is better to stifle the hidden danger now. The people of the Hu clan are absolutely not qualified to be disciples of the Chongling Sect, that's all. ”
Hu Bing was furious when he heard this, and he almost had a seizure, but in the end he succeeded in holding on.
"And how are you going?"
"Naturally, it will drive you out of the Cult. ”
Looking at Zhu Ren's disgusting face, Hu Bing's eyes revealed a line of cold murderous intent. Although Hu Bing immediately withdrew that gaze full of murderous intent, Zhu Ren could still see the change in her expression.
Zhu Ren smiled presumptuously: "You don't need to hide it, I already feel it." Do you want to put me to death now? Even if you come, I will not resist, and you will kill me. It's just that when I die, it will be difficult to save the life of your precious apprentice. ”
Hu Bing naturally knew that what Zhu Ren said was true, otherwise she would not have behaved so forbearant and restrained.
"Release Zhu Mei, and when I see her free, I will take the initiative to leave the Cult of Souls, return to my hometown, and never come back again, which is in line with your requirements. ”
Now, Hu Bing found that he had no choice but to make a compromise, and there was no other way.
"Leaving the Chongling Sect, who do you think this kind of trick can deceive? As long as I release Zhu Mei, you will definitely turn your face immediately and tell the head of the sect all the ins and outs of this matter, so that we will fall into a place of no return. Zhu Ren looked at Hu Bing's eyes at this moment as if he was facing a stupid person.
"If you're not at ease, I can swear..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhu Ren.
"Don't talk nonsense, your master won't let you go for no reason. ”
"Then what do you want? You might as well say it directly, as long as I can save Zhu Mei's life, I can agree to any conditions, as long as it does not violate morality. ”
Hu Bing had already been said by Zhu Ren a little impatiently, and his tone was extremely hurried, hoping to hear the other party's request immediately.
A sinister smile appeared on Zhu Ren's face, and he said slowly, "It's very simple, you just need to let us beat us up without showing any resistance." If you survive, then we will naturally let Zhu Mei go, and we will never come to harass you again. If we are unfortunate enough to beat you to death, we will also be relieved, and we will naturally release Zhu Mei at that time. You're not going to lose anyway, right?"
Hu Bing sneered twice disdainfully, and said, "As long as you beat me to death, you can also hurt Zhu Mei." I have seen through the nature of your people, do not try to lead me into the trap you have set, I will not believe anything you say, I advise you not to be delusional. ”
