Chapter 156: Seeking a Deal as a Scheme
The valley lord informed Zongzheng that it was the foreign masters who carried out the eagle plan, and Zongzheng understood the valley master's intentions, but he was quite disdainful of her despicability and shamelessness.
"I think, you must also want to wash away your grievances in front of the martial arts factions, right? As long as you are willing to cooperate with the Lord of the Valley, the Lord of the Valley can help you, in this way, not only can you wash away your grievances, but also avenge Situ Xianjie, which can also be described as killing two birds with one stone for you. Gu Zhufu added,
Zong Zheng is a person who understands, and knows that what the valley lord said is indeed true, but unfortunately it is mixed with too many scheming, which makes Zong Zheng have to be cautious, and at the same time there is an extra layer of feeling of being used, Zong Zheng can not understand it anymore, the valley master is the mastermind behind the scenes, and he is the wronged person of the whole thing, if he comes forward by himself, the valley lord will help behind the scenes, and he will be able to lead the grudges of the martial arts factions to the foreign masters, and then realize the purpose of the valley lord and his own immortals, but in this way, there is a suspicion that the valley lord will be whitewashing his own participation in the eagle fighting plan, and she has been behind the scenes, and she has become the driving force on the cusp, once something happens, It's hard to guarantee that he won't treat himself like he treats those foreign masters, not to mention that the last time he was besieged by the major factions of the martial arts, he suffered a dark loss; besides, for the valley lord, if this matter is successful, she can achieve the effect of weakening the strength of the Southern Song Dynasty Wulin and the King of Mobei at the same time, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, in contrast, she will get private interests, and she can get public welfare, which shows the depth of her scheming, if she fools others, it is okay, if she fools me, how can it be so easy.
Therefore, Zong Zheng was afraid, so he replied: "This matter needs to be considered and discussed, let's talk about other transactions!"
The situation is always changing, before, the valley lord also thought about plotting against the foreign masters for Kublai Khan's use, and then hit Ali Buge, for the follow-up southward accumulation of talents, but unfortunately, with the stalemate of HΓΌlegu in the western war, and the weakening of the deterrent effect of the Mongolian internal strife to the west and the southern regions, the mother country of these foreign masters is no longer as subservient to Mongolia as before, therefore, the valley lord expects that in the future, Mongolia will be difficult to control this group of foreign masters cultivated by himself, once the situation develops in an unfavorable direction, these people have unique skills, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not cause a great adverse effect, so she wants to take advantage of these beasts before they loosen the reinsHowever, the eight wolves of Zhongshan lost four people for no reason, and the current situation is sensitive, and it is inconvenient for him to act openly, so he thought of using the hands of Zongzheng and the martial arts faction to get rid of the troubles of Mongolia.
Although the impetuous minds of these people have not been seen through by Ali Buge, however, the valley master has already found out and has already set up a situation to deal with them, but she wants to let these foreign masters play their last role before they die, that is, to weaken the strength of the various factions in the martial arts, this kind of intention can not be said to be deep and ruthless.
Seeing that Zong Zheng seemed to have doubts, it was difficult to guess what concerns were blocking his decision, so he had to put the matter aside for the time being, and then brought up another transaction.
"Situ Xianjie has only three years of suppressing the poison medicine in her hand, I know that she may have obtained the secret recipe for suppressing the poison, but even so, she only has a life span of ten years at most, and the poison is constantly sucking the essence of her body, although there is no cure in the world, fortunately, there is a spiritual creature that can restrain the addiction of fragrance poison for a long time. β
"What kind of spiritual thing?" Zong Zheng asked with concern,
"The snow lingzhi on Xuefeng Mountain, this thing was born in the bitter cold land of Xuefeng Mountain, there is only one flower in the world, and now it is in the hands of the lord of this valley, and this medicine can ensure that Situ Xianjie has another ten years of life. The valley lord replied,
"Ten years, why is it only ten years?" Zong Zheng roared hysterically, his heart was like ten thousand ants gnawing, although it was not life and death, but this kind of feeling of not being able to grow old in vain, and being lonely for half a life was also extremely painful, but unfortunately, this has become a fact, Zong Zheng quickly calmed down again, and then asked weakly,
"Say, what conditions do you have?" Zongzheng's eyes were like torches, and his face was like ashes, but he was very firm in his heart, no matter how difficult it was, for the sake of these ten years, he would go to the soup and fire, and he would not hesitate to do so, Xian'er was his only relative in this world, and he was the most cherished woman in his life, and he couldn't live without her, let alone watch her suffer.
Everyone is not invulnerable, there is always a weakness, and Zongzheng's weakness is Situ Xianjie, this point, as early as when Zongzheng first arrived in the Valley of Beauty, the wise valley master has seen through all this, so Xianjie has become the line she controls Zongzheng, as long as she keeps holding this line, Zongzheng's kite is still in the palm of her hand after all, no matter how wide the sky is, this is also the capital that she has the confidence to pull Zongzheng back to the original plan she set.
Seeing that Zongzheng was willing to cooperate, the valley lord secretly rejoiced, and said,
"At the moment, the king of Mo Nan and the king of Mo North are fighting for sweat, now is the critical moment, right now, it is inconvenient for me to show my body, it is difficult to help the king of Mo Nan in a timely and effective manner, as long as you promise to help the lord of this valley to assist the king of Mo Nan to win the final throne, I can give you half of the snow Lingzhi. β
"Half, why half?" Zong Zheng asked rhetorically,
After all, the valley master is scheming, how could he play the hole cards in his hand at one time, she replied leisurely: "I believe that with your ability and ability, it is not difficult to help King Mo Nan win the last sweat position, so it can only be worth half of the snow lingzhi." β
"What is the condition of the other half?" Zong Zheng said unhappily, hating the old woman in front of him to the extreme, so that she personally caused Xianjie to be like this, and now with Snow Lingzhi as a condition, she also wants to make the best use of it, and if she doesn't squeeze out all the use value, this kind of person is really resentful, awe-inspiring but helpless.
"When King Mo Nan becomes the only Great Khan of Mongolia, I want you to help him conquer the Southern Song Dynasty and dominate the world. Speaking of such a great cause, her voice was slightly raised, as if it was the result she had been waiting for for a long time.
"What you said is not easy to say, I am afraid that it will not be able to last until the completion of the great cause of reunification, and it is long past time for Xian'er to take the other half of the snow lingzhi! Do you think that the great cause of reunification is so easy to accomplish? How much time you Mongolians have spent, and now you still haven't won the Southern Song Dynasty, you should know this in your heart. Zong Zheng asked rhetorically, but everything was true.
Where can the valley lord manage so much, she believes that as long as Zongzheng, the dragon scale Qizi, is willing, then he can do it, so she still said leisurely: "Don't worry, with your ingenuity, you can definitely do it, and I believe that it won't take fifteen years at all, ten years can be enough, and this ten years for your immortal jie ten years, it depends on what you think." β
"How do I know if the snow lingzhi you said really exists, and how do I know that she does have miraculous effects?" Zongzheng's heart can't help but ooze blood, this is a gamble, if he loses the bet, the loss is his more than ten years of time and freedom, and even Xian'er's ten-year life, if he wins the bet, he can exchange for Xianjie's ten-year lifespan, he doesn't know if it's worth it, because, this is a big gamble, not to say that the gambling money is huge, but the whole gambling game is huge, once you choose this road, you have no way back, it is bound to be millions of iron armor swallowing mountains and rivers, and tens of millions of people's blood into rivers.
The valley master took out a palm-sized white box from his arms, turned around, and took out a delicate small key tied to his neck with Zong Zheng on his back, and when the white box was opened, he put the key back into the thin rope tied around his neck, and then turned around and held the opened box for Zong Zheng to see.
A white light shot out from the palm-sized box, instantly whitening half of the dark grid, the snow lingzhi was far smaller than Zong Zheng imagined, but seeing it lying quietly in the box, the whole body was crystal clear, full of luster, it seemed to be the best product produced in the extremely cold and snowy realm.
As for the effect, the valley lord will never lie to you, after all, when you complete the first transaction, you can get half of it, if I have the intention to deceive, how can I continue to contribute to the great cause of Mongolian unification? After all, the great cause of Mongolian unification is what the lord of this valley values the most, you are a smart person, and the truth goes without going into details, you also understand!" The valley lord pointed to the snow lingzhi in his hand and said, and then closed the lid of the box, and the white light shrank and disappeared in an instant with the cover of the lid, and the dark pavilion returned to faintness.
After all, the kind nature failed to make Zong Zheng reply immediately, he was extremely entangled and hesitant at the moment, but he was worried: "By the way, have you mentioned this matter to Xian'er?"
The valley lord put the box back into his sleeve and replied: "Don't worry, she should know, the valley lord will tell her, she shouldn't know, the valley lord won't mention half a word, I only tell her that the incense poison on her body has the effect of seducing men, and I will never mention the rest that shouldn't be said, as for whether to give her a chance to live for ten more years, it's up to you!"
Zong Zheng took a long breath, what he was most afraid of was that Xian'er would know about this, and he would only increase his sadness and worry, and even do stupid things in order not to let himself be affected again.
Regarding the transaction proposed by the valley master, the matter was very high, and Zong Zheng did not dare to make a decision easily, so he had to deal with it: "You allow me to think about it, give me a little time to think about it!"
"Yes, the valley lord can give you time to think about it, and besides, can you think about dealing with those foreign masters?"
Zong Zheng was already upset, how could he think about anything else, and immediately replied with some impatience: "Can you stop forcing me, I said, give me time to think about it, I want to be alone." β
The valley lord was not disturbed by Zongzheng's emotions, the more troubled Zongzheng was, the more scheming she was to deal with Zongzheng, she believed that as long as she grasped Zongzheng's weakness and pain, there would be a chance to take advantage of the gap, and now there was still a lack of a fire to attack the heart, and the time had not come, so the valley owner had to give time to Zongzheng to think about it first, so he advised: "Okay, I hope you can go back and think about it." β
Zong Zheng walked out of the dark pavilion with a gloomy face, and then went to the Green Bamboo Pavilion.
