Chapter 24: Dead Chess
"Boom, Boom......"
The sound of footsteps gradually approached my ears, but there was no intention of stopping. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Huh!"
The two figures brushed the shoulders of the hindsight, and each walked to the two Taishi chairs on the left and right, as if they didn't see him at all.
After the horse looked up, he saw a young man in his early twenties sitting down next to the old cicada. The clothes of the people here are mainly red, and the body of this young man is wrapped in a black tiger skin.
Hindsight stared at the black tiger skin and couldn't help but swallow. The sheen of the black tiger skin was grayish-blue, indicating that it had been peeled alive from a huge black tiger.
At this time, someone on the other side said to the young man in the tiger's skin:
"Brother Yiqu, since the fox master is benevolent and righteous, and the second prince is mighty, wouldn't it be better for the two of them to be the sect leader together?"
It was the yellow-haired old man who was sitting next to Yuyang Zhenren who had just spoken. From his title, it can be seen that the young man in the tiger skin is Yiqu among the four priests, and he is the last remaining high priest, Huang Mei.
Yiqu half-squinted his eyes and did not respond, the killing intent contained in his eyes was inadvertently revealed between opening and closing, and his expression was like a fierce tiger napping.
"Do it together?" the old cicada hurriedly said: "Old man with yellow eyebrows, although your idea is in line with human feelings, it is obviously against the way of heaven!"
Yuyang Zhenren said proudly: "The way of heaven is a hypocritical trick to expound the teachings! We have never talked about the way of heaven, but only about strength!"
The old cicada sneered and said word by word:
"Sleeping with Moshu's wife, is also your strength?"
The sharp words spit out from the mouth of the old cicada, as if the words had a blade. Her words broke the sky, which caught Yuyang Zhenren off guard.
"What did you say?" said Jade Sheep Zhenren, pointing to the old cicada's nose.
"You know it in your heart. ”
The conversation between the two of them caused a burst of laughter to echo around them. The ridicule and laughter converged into a huge heat wave, which slapped heavily on Yuyang's real face, making his face flush.
But the hindsight couldn't laugh at all.
He was the only one who found out, and just when people were laughing, Yiqu, who had been silent, suddenly disappeared out of thin air, leaving only a black tiger skin on the Taishi's chair.
Immediately after that, a gap opened out of thin air behind the Jade Sheep Real Man, and a giant hand twice as thick as ordinary people stretched out from the gap and grabbed a horn on the Jade Yang Zhenren's head.
"Ahhhh
The sudden hiss suddenly suppressed the noisy laughter. Everyone was stunned by the scream.
The howl suddenly rang out, and then suddenly stopped. It was none other than the real person of Yuyang who screamed!
A stream of blood flowed down from his hair, and Yuyang Zhenren's expression was distorted, and he turned his head with difficulty, only to see a bloody horn appear in front of him. The root of the horn was clinging to the tender flesh and scalp, and it had just been a part of its own body, but now it was held tightly by a large hand.
Large hands are attached to a shirtless body full of muscles. The green tendons were abrupt, indicating that the owner of this body was in a bad mood now. And the one who made him feel so bad was the Yuyang real person who had been talking endlessly just now.
At this moment, he was curled up and moaning, like a lamb baating to the slaughter.
"You said that the sect is not humane, but your strength is no more than that!"
Yiqu's voice was deep and gloomy, slow and powerful, and the noisy discussion around him was silenced by this voice. He raised the blood-dripping horn in front of the Jade Sheep Zhenren and said in a deep voice:
"I've always wanted to make a dagger out of it. ”
Yuyang Zhenren covered the bloody wound on his head and said tremblingly:
“...... Please ...... Take it ......"
Yiqu showed a strange expression, as if he was smiling but not smiling, as if he was angry or not, and only the word "death" could be reminiscent of. Quietly, the sharp tip of the sheep's horn has been pressed against the throat of the jade sheep real person.
Yiqu leaned into the ear of Yuyang Zhenren and whispered:
"Gotta try if it's sharp enough ......"
There was a murderous aura in his voice. When the Jade Sheep real person reacted, his horns had been inserted into his neck. He shuddered and clutched his throat, but the unstoppable blood was still dripping from between his fingers.
Yiqu pulled out the horns, licked the blood from them with his tongue, inserted it into his waist, and slowly walked to his seat.
The people present were dumbfounded, and several people in the distance had already stood up from their chairs, and some still didn't know what was going on.
The blood of the Jade Sheep real person converged into countless red threads, overflowing and extending like spider webs. One of the red lines flowed to the feet of the hindsight, bringing a strong smell of blood.
It became difficult for the hindsight to breathe. Knowing this, he only received a bounty and was comfortable enough to live the rest of his life, so why replace Su Jiyan and this fateful thing.
The old cicada looked at the corpse of the jade sheep real person, licked his cat paws, and said:
"It's another underskirt ghost, it's a pity. ”
The old cicada's tone was a little mocking, but also a little regretful.
However, the Huangmei Daoist who was sitting next to the Jade Yang Real Man had a smile on his face, as if everything that happened beside him just now had nothing to do with him. This coldness and calmness are really chilling, but at this moment, people's attention is not on the Huangmei Daoist, but invariably looking at the hindsight.
As soon as the Jade Sheep real person dies, the "Vortex Spirit Pavilion Master" will replace him and enter the list of twenty-five elders, which is the so-called canonization ceremony of the sect elders.
At this time, there are twelve equal people sitting on the left and right, and which side of the hindsight's butt falls will play a crucial role in determining the selection of the future sect leader.
At this moment, the hindsight suddenly found that there was a white-haired young man standing next to the Huangmei Daoist, who was actually Hu Jiuye who met Fengqilou!
Ma Houcang didn't see when Hu Jiuye came in, but he saw that his eyes were always staring at him, and he didn't know what to say to Meidaoren.
After hearing this, the Huangmei Daoist nodded respectfully again and again, and asked after the horse:
"Vortex Spirit Pavilion Master, dare to ask where the Creation Jade on Shen Hou's body is now?"
Hindsight looked dazed for an instant, and asked rhetorically:
“...... Creation of Jade...... What's that?"
When he opened his mouth, he immediately caused a commotion around him.
Someone shouted, "What's the use of retrieving a dead corpse without the Creation Jade?"
Someone sneered: "If there is no Creation Jade, then Shen Hou must be fake!"
......
The scolding and negation echoed around him, overwhelming the horse's breath. He was at a loss, and his two eyeballs began to flutter restlessly.
"It's true, Shen Hou is absolutely true!" Ma Hou's voice began to tremble, he pulled Bai Gonggong's clothes, crying and pleading: "Father-in-law! you know! Tell them quickly, the Shen Hou I brought back is real! Quick! Please!"
Father-in-law Bai frowned, shook him off like a fly, and said coldly:
"You filthy wretch! The Sprinkle family has already seen that what you brought is a fake! Whoever has the Creation Jade on him is worthy of being the master of the Spiral Spirit Pavilion!"
The old cicada stared at the hindsight and said:
"The Jade of Creation is a token of the sect of interception, and Shen Hou will definitely bring it with him. If Shen Hou doesn't have it, then there are only two possibilities. One is that the Shen Hou you brought back was stolen, and the other is that the Jade Butterfly of Creation has been swallowed by you alone!"
After the fact, it suddenly dawned on him, it turned out that the reason why Mo Shu and Jiang Ying were not present was because they did not create jade. Both the Lord of Shen and the Lord of the Sect can be replaced, but there is only one Jade of Creation that represents the identity of the Lord of the Sect.
What these people really want is just this lost token of the Palm Sect, and as for "looking for Shen Hou", it's just a cover to cover people's eyes.
Hindsight hurriedly explained:
"I didn't have it to myself!
As soon as the words came out, Ma Houcang immediately realized that he had missed his mouth, but the old cicada had already heard it clearly. She stared into the eyes of the hindsight and sneered:
"So, Shen Hou was also stolen by you from that kid?"
"It's not stealing! No, it's not ......" Hindsight wanted to change his words, but he was incoherent, and he wanted to slap himself in the mouth, but no matter what he said or did now, he was already an "afterthought."
It can be said that success is also an afterthought, and defeat is also an afterthought, as if he is destined to die on this move.
The old cicada sighed and said helplessly:
"It seems that if I don't put you in the Linglong Tower Prison, I won't be able to ask about the whereabouts of the Creation Jade!"
Hearing the words "Linglong Tower Prison", the afterthought instantly weakened his legs, and he knelt on the ground weakly, no longer quibbling.
"I said, I'll tell you the whereabouts of the Jade Creation!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and everyone's eyes widened and their ears pricked up.
The hindsight staggered to the corpse of the Jade Sheep Zhenren, broke the head of the corpse, aimed the horns of the sheep at his throat, and said tremblingly:
"I know your methods. In your hands, it is better to die than to live!"
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and stuck his neck on the remaining horn of the Jade Sheep Zhenren!
Seeing the action of the hindsight, none of the people stepped forward to stop them, nor did they exclaim in amazement, as indifferent as seeing dead flies.
When he was dying, he remembered Su Ji's last meaningful smile in Fengqi Tower, and remembered that he said that this might be a dead move, but he didn't expect it to be really hit by him.
Could it be that Su Ji has already calculated all this?
Or is all this just a game laid by Su-Ji?
The answers to these questions, as an afterthought, as a dead pawn, will never be known. The last thing he heard before he died was the shrill voice of Father-in-law Bai:
"Shen Hou has experienced the right body, and the Creation Jade is in the city, and the troublesome high priests quickly find the true Whirling Spirit Pavilion Master!"
