Chapter 61: Gambling
The implication of Gu Yuan's words is that Xiao He will take this burden whether he wants it or not.
Knowing that this was the result, Xiao He had already been mentally prepared. He comforted himself that he was already alone, and it was more meaningful to contribute to society than to waste his life. He shrugged his shoulders lightly and said to the crowd, "I'm a mortal, don't blame me for messing up." β
Either way, it's a promise. The heads looked at each other, looked at each other, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"What should I do next?" Xiao He was the first to break the silence and said.
Gu Yuan smiled mysteriously, picked up the dagger, and handed it to him with the hilt of the knife in reverse: "Cut your index finger and write your name on the jade slip with blood, you are my Kunlun disciple." Follow our sect to practice the immortal method first, and when you become a character like Chonghua, then take over Jiuyi. β
Become a character like Chonghua, the supreme sword immortal, the existence of the new immortal world, the dashing boss of the mysterious organization, can you do it? I am a poor orphan, I can't even beat a monster with blood and bones.
Xiao He's mind was full of thoughts, but he still did it, slashed his index finger with a dagger, and struggled to write his name. At this moment, the little white lion suddenly went crazy and roared at Xiao He, if his master stopped him, Xiao He was really afraid that it would pounce on it with its little short legs and scratch its face.
His master, the man with an eye disease, calmly took it in his arms and smoothed its fur, but the little lion could not calm down anyway. The angry roar that answered it in the still empty hall, coupled with Xiao He, who pretended not to hear and continued to write his name, and a group of silent weirdos in expensive suits, seemed very strange for a while.
After writing, Gu Yuan picked up the jade card and looked at it for a long time, as if his eyes were about to fall in. Then he smiled brightly and said to Xiao He very gently: "Welcome, junior brother." Xiao He smiled a little embarrassedly, because the three words of senior brother could not be called out for the time being, he had to scratch his head a little embarrassedly and smiled awkwardly.
The very rugged man who had choked on Xiao He before stood outside the crowd, looking at Xiao He with complicated eyes and not saying a word.
Subsequently, Gu Yuan summoned two palace ladies and asked them to lead Xiao He down to the assigned room. Xiao He greeted everyone respectfully before leaving, thinking that they were elders after all, and they would still meet in the future, it was better to be honest, lest someone wear small shoes for themselves.
After Xiao He left, all the heads of the family gathered together to discuss some other matters, and decided that Jiuyi would be handed over to Shuo Ye to take care of for the time being, after all, among the elders, except for Chonghua, she was ranked the highest in terms of skill. She is also Chonghua's own sister, and she is nominally passable. After discussing it for a while, they took their leave and went back to their old nests.
Gu Yuan sent most of the people away with a smile, and when he returned to the small hall, he found that the blindfolded man was still sitting upright at the table with the white lion in his arms, and there was no sign of leaving.
Seeing that he was still there, Gu Yuan couldn't help but be stunned, so he smiled very politely, and stepped forward and said, "This is ...... The white mirror dust Taoist friends of the Qionghua Gate of Tianmu Mountain, why are you staying?"
The man named Bai Jingchen nodded slightly, one hand still kept stroking the little lion, and said lightly: "There is something unclear, I hope that the old Yuan Daoist will give me some advice." β
Gu Yuan smiled and said, "But it's okay to say it. β
The little lion in Bai Jingchen's arms made a comfortable purring sound, maybe Xiao He was not there, it seemed much more relaxed. Bai Jingchen's thin lips moved slightly, with a hint of immortal aura, without the slightest emotion: "Why did you include him in Kunlun?"
Gu Yuan smiled: "Because Chonghua is my Kunlun person." Although after entering Jiuyi, it is customary to erase the immortal book. He came with a broken sword, and he should be my Kunlun man. β
Bai Jingchen snorted coldly slightly, and his tone was a little contemptuous: "I believe Your Excellency has also discovered that his blood is different from ordinary people." Even....unlike you and me. β
Gu Yuan was puzzled: "What's different? What is Jingchen Daoist talking about?"
This obvious act of pretending to be stupid obviously embarrassed Bai Jingchen, he was a little angry, and his voice became colder: "If he is really a mortal, it is okay, you still dare to include him in the door with such unclean blood? β
Gu Yuan was still smiling politely, but his eyes were shining coldly.
"This kind of blood full of anger, and the fate of the Heavenly Evil Lone Star, there have not been many people since ancient times.
If his talent for cultivation is not good, and he can make up for his shortcomings with diligence, and eventually he can attain positive results, then it will be fine, at most he will be entangled with karma, and the path to enlightenment will be more difficult. But he has no superior talent in ten thousand, and if one day, he falls into the devil's pathβ"
The small hall was extremely quiet, and no one spoke for a while. The little lion fell asleep comfortably on Bai Jingchen's lap, and his fluffy little belly stirred from time to time.
"As far as I know, the last person like him was Yue Jiangge from your sect who defected to the Divine Sect, right?
"It's getting late, Bai Jingchen Daoist should go back early. Gu Yuan's face suddenly became extremely cold, he dusted his sleeves, and said expressionlessly.
But anyone could see the anger he was trying to suppress. Bai Jingchen closed his mouth knowingly.
After a while, he slowly stood up, ignoring his face and deliberately not looking at his old abyss, and said to him slowly: "Actually, these are not the main problems. Your faction is the largest faction in the world, and you will definitely be able to prevent such a tragedy from happening again. β
He slowly walked to the door, put down the white lion cub, the little lion stood on the ground and turned his head, snorting, suddenly exploded into a cloud of white mist, in the mist, a tall and mighty, majestic white lion was standing with his head held high. Bai Jingchen sat sideways on the back of the white giant lion lying down, and said lightly: "The most important problem is his ...... There's something hidden. β
Gu Yuan's face was a little gloomy and he looked at Bai Jingchen.
"It's very deep, but it's sniffed by Ah Si'er. A person's sense of smell is not as good as that of a spirit animal, and I don't know what it is. In short, he was no ordinary mortal. Now that you have decided to admit him to Kunlun, I hope you are prepared to accept the worst consequences. Shape up or ship out. β
With that, he rode away on a white lion without looking back. Gu Yuan was behind him, his face was grim, and his eyes were far away. The small hall was quiet, and the white snowflakes slowly fell from the nothingness, like a dream.
This kid does have a problem. Shuo Ye brought back such a person, which he did not expect. Gu Yuan rarely encountered something that he was not sure of in his life, but this strange mortal took one of them, and almost all of them used their divine sense to tell him that this son could not be kept, and it must be a disaster. The stubbornness between his eyebrows is indeed similar to Yue Jiangge, but it is a little more sad and forbearant than that kid. Just when he was about to reject him, the master Fengqing suddenly spread the news thousands of miles and asked Gu Yuan to accept him as a beginner, so he had to ignore the dissuasion of others and ask Gong E to bring the jade slip.
Bai Jingchen's words, he understood, if Xiao He didn't worship Kunlun, it might really be a disaster in the future. If you worship under Kunlun, you may be able to set things right, quietly resolve an evil cause, and avoid an evil result. He understood that this was a big gamble by the head of Fengqing.
