Chapter 49: That's Not Me
"Great Elder, you let us let a few old bones go out with you to toss, it doesn't matter if we are tired, who will take care of the affairs in this door, and the reconstruction is at a critical moment, at this time we are all gone, who will supervise?" The one who spoke was a very elegant middle-aged man, with a gray beard, a square face and a high forehead, and his eyes always showed a smile but not a smile, which made people feel close to him.
This person is Gu Heng, the second elder of the Gulun faction, and one of the third elders under him is also the third elder Gu Heng who has just come out of the customs.
Gu Duan's eyes were closed, as if his eyes were ignorant, deaf, expressionless, like a clay sculpture, but after hearing Gu Xun's words, he nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with the above views.
The first place is naturally the Great Elder Gu Jing, witnessing the tragic destruction of the Golden Knife Gang, he already has a trace of jealousy of Qi Su Yu in his heart, but the grudge has been too deep, either you die or I live, this jealousy will only make Gu Jing want to get rid of Qi Su Yu and then faster.
But he asked himself that he couldn't fight against the strong man behind Qi Su Yu by himself, and he had to invite Gu Xun and Gu Chi to form a three-talent formation to have a chance of winning.
However, although he made the enmity and stakes of the matter very clear, these two people just didn't buy it. Thinking about the previous head, although he did not obey his words, he respected them three points and considered them nine, and these two people also obediently obeyed orders, but when the head was not there, they would try their best to oppose themselves, and when they went out, they took the opportunity to win over the forces.
Isn't it because when he was running for the Great Elder, he dealt with them a little harder, and as for holding grudges until now?
Gu Jing really doesn't take them seriously on weekdays, but now it's time for no choice. So, he could only suppress his anger and said with a smile: " The two junior brothers, to put it seriously, now has come to the time of the survival of the Gulun faction, Qi Su Yu this person must be caught before the other sects succeed, first, to find out what happened to Qi Yansheng in charge, as long as he grasps Qi Su Yu, Qi Yansheng will definitely appear; second, this kid is full of all kinds of strange secret techniques, this is a thousand years of merit for us, think that my Gulun sect is at the end of the five major sects, what a despicable thing, if you can master these secret techniques, it will definitely surpass the other sects; third, this son and my Gulun sect already have a common enmity, and there is a top master behind him to help, if we don't kill him, in the future, it will definitely be the great enemy that threatens my Gulen faction. Think about it, with these three points, do you think there is a reason to shirk?"
Gu Heng's smiling eyes narrowed slightly, and Gu Hengzai's face still did not change, and he did not nod.
Indeed, any of the one, two, and three listed by Gu Jingluo could make any Gulun sect disciple unable to ignore them, and Gu Heng and Gu Duan were no exception.
"The Great Elder is serious, although the two of us are weak, but for the sake of the righteousness of the sect, it is naturally incumbent on us, but the affairs in the door are really complicated, and we can't patronize the distance regardless of our feet, it is really difficult to get out. Gu Heng finished speaking with a sad face, looked at Gu Duan, and said, "We discussed a way to get the best of both worlds, and asked the Great Elder to decide." ”
Gu Jing nodded, he knew that Gu Heng's conditions were coming.
"You also know that the two of us have just come out of the customs, although they have some experience in managing the sect before, but after all, there are still some inconsiderate places, thanks to the participation of Gu Xing's nephew and nephew, to ensure that the affairs of the door are carried out in an orderly manner, and the credit is not small, and it is indeed a talent, so I have a proposal, that is, to promote Gu Xing's nephew to an elder, in order to show our and other heads of the family's cherishing talents, concern, and inspire the disciples in the door to make progress bravely. "Gu Heng is colorful.
After Gu Jing listened, the fists in his sleeves were about to clench out of the water, and the hatred in his heart was unsettled, Gu Heng said such a thing at this moment, and he had no other way but to satisfy himself with all his might.
However, to honor an elder, in addition to the privilege of the head of the family, he cannot exceed his authority as a great elder, even if he is now the temporary head of the family, what a major matter is to appoint an elder can only be decided after a series of evaluations and deliberations of the elders.
However, it is not impossible to do this matter, but it will greatly reduce his prestige among the disciples, after all, everyone in the Gulun faction knows that Gu Xing is actually Gu Heng's nephew, and he has no ability to do anything except form a gang on weekdays, if such a person is promoted to an elder by exception, how will the disciples view themselves as a great elder.
Gu Heng's trick of taking advantage of people's danger to pick up skin damage was like throwing a live fly into Gu Jing's mouth, and Gu Jing could only endure chewing and pretending to be very sweet to swallow.
It's really infuriating.
But at the moment, I can't help but think about it, and more than a dozen or twenty pairs of eyes are staring at him. Gu Jing loosened his fist, swallowed his saliva, and said in a hoarse voice: "Since Senior Brother Gu Heng strongly recommends it, it is naturally not wrong, and now that the head is not there, the old man will make this decision for him and promote Gu Xing's nephew to the elder." ”
Sure enough, just after Gu Jing announced his resignation, the disdain in the eyes of some elders was undisguised, they all went through a lot of hardships, and they got the position of elders by virtue of the accumulated merits of birth and death, but now they saw that Gu Xing came effortlessly, and their hearts were filled with anger, and their respect for Gu Jing was also broken.
"That's a good dare, with Gu Xing's nephew participating in the management and coordination of sect affairs, the two of us can also rest assured that we can accompany the Great Elder for a while. Gu Heng smiled proudly, and even Gu Heng on the side moved the corners of his mouth slightly, and it was difficult to hide his pride, because his wife and Gu Heng's wife were sisters, and Gu Xing was also his nephew, and they were all in the same spirit.
"Okay, let's get out as soon as possible. Gu Jing stood up and couldn't wait to step out of the hall, he really didn't want to endure the strange eyes from the other elders for a moment, but as long as he could catch Qi Su Yu, he could not care about anything.
Qi Su Yu, who had left the Golden Knife Gang, was standing on the edge of a cliff at the moment, looking at his hands full of blood, his eyes were empty. He only remembered that he was under the low cliff at that time, and there was no way to avoid the attack of Orange Xianji, so he made a note in the center of his busy life, which was to use the only trace of energy called Yuan Li that could be mobilized in his body, and penetrated through the tricks of the Wenchen Sutra, and then he only vaguely remembered that he killed Orange Xianji, and then followed a disciple of the Golden Knife Gang to the helm of the Golden Knife Gang, and then sent the entire Golden Knife Gang up and down there...... Kill a fine light.
And now in his mind, the faces of those Golden Knife Gang disciples who were killed by himself were still in his mind, and every scene was so clear.
He couldn't help but ask himself: why did I kill people, why did I kill so many people?
He didn't want to kill people at all, but he couldn't control himself when he killed people, and even the pleasure of killing still remained in his nerves, but he couldn't bear to feel it.
Because for a moment, even he felt that he was not a human being, but a devil.
No, it's not me, but who will it be? Where can I find the answer, and who can give the answer?
He looked at the setting sun in the distance, bright red as a sea of blood.
