Volume 36 Departure
"Leader, don't you say something?" said Ou Zhiyang with a wicked smile.
Since Chen Yihe and Luo Xiang both recognized Ming Xuan as the leader, the others naturally had no objections, and Ming Xuan, the leader of this operation, could not escape.
"Since everyone is so affectionate, then Gu Mou is disrespectful! I will definitely do my best to plan this operation completely, and strive to get the maximum return at the lowest cost, but before that, I still have a few requirements. Since he simply accepted it calmly, Mingxuan is not a person who twists.
"First, a qiē action obeys the command, now we are a team, then we must talk about unity, all things must be subject to the arrangement, any opinions and suggestions can be raised, but once the decision is made, we must be unconditionally obeyed and implemented; second, regardless of personal gains and losses, we have a large number of people, and the division of labor will definitely be different at that time, some people may have heavy and dangerous tasks, and some people may have easy and safe tasks, which are all in line with the needs of the action, so I hope you don't care, the ultimate success is what we have to consider; third, not afraid of difficulties and dangers, the ruthlessness and viciousness of the Demon Sect do not need me to say more, everyone is also clearIn the face of them, there is only life and death, there is no third way, I hope everyone must be open, and it is best to have the determination to die, so as to put death and survive, and destroy the opponent while protecting themselves. This is my basic requirement, if someone asks themselves if they can't do it, then please leave now, if they stay, please fulfill your promise, and do what you say!"
Mingxuan either doesn't want to be the leader, or he has to do it vigorously, one is one, and suddenly the audience was silent, and he didn't expect that this seemingly quiet and easy-going person had such courage and skill.
"Chen Yihe's strength and prestige are good, and he has the demeanor of the next head of the family in the Chen clan, and it is understandable to be the leader, but he is not familiar with the Demon Sect, and he lacks relevant experience in dealing with the enemy, so he is somewhat shackled to lead; Luo Xiang is also a good candidate, but his personality is too gentle, and he pays attention to convincing people with virtue, and what he has to do now is to have a hard-fought battle with the Demon Sect, his character is really not suitable, and he also lacks actual combat experience; Liu Xinglu and Ma Qiankun are not to mention, their strength and prestige are a big difference; and although Ming Xuan is young and has no prestige here, he is strong and has rich experience, Although he seems to be relatively taciturn, he has a calm and meticulous personality, is brave and strategic, and has fought to the death with the Demon Sect, so he is indeed the best candidate to be the leader. Ou Zhiyang thought secretly, and now it seems that his idea is indeed right, in fact, he himself is also a good candidate, but he really doesn't want to work hard for these trivial things, and he doesn't have this sense of responsibility.
"Brother Gu is right! My Chen family disciples must comply with the requirements and charge forward regardless of life and death!" Chen Yihe said proudly, and the Chen family disciples behind him also responded.
"My Confucian disciples should also follow the requirements!" Luo Xiang also echoed his words, and in such an atmosphere, the disciples of other sects should also be, and none of them moved away, it is true that there were considerations when selecting disciples in various sects, it is a matter of life and death, not child's play.
After Ming Xuan's stern words, it was a burst of bold words from everyone, and everyone's enthusiasm was fully aroused, as if the weapons in their hands had long been hungry and thirsty.
"That's good! There are still a few things to do next, first, to collect and count the strength of all the people present, this matter is in charge of Brother Ou; second, after the statistics, I am responsible for the deployment and management of all the spirits, Brother Chen is responsible for the capable, and Brother Luo is responsible for the martial artists; third, as far as I know, the Demon Sect will go to the blood pool to inspect the altar after the year, the specific time is uncertain, we should be sooner rather than later, and the road to Mingcui Mountain here is not close, so the time is in a hurry, we will set off on the fifth day of the new year, and meet at the city gate at three o'clock; finally, it is a matter of confidentiality, all the things present today, please do not leak out, so as not to startle the snake。 That's all I have to say, if you have an opinion, you can put it forward now, and if you don't have an opinion, implement it!" Ming Xuan had already straightened out the order, and he was not in a hurry to act.
Ming Xuan had already explained the matter very completely, and everyone naturally had no objections, so they acted according to his request.
"It must be on purpose! Declare a personal vendetta so soon!" Only Ou Zhiyang muttered quietly there, knowing that he didn't like to take care of things, and he didn't leave the most troublesome thing to him, so he decided that Mingxuan must be "revenge" on him.
Time flies quickly, the New Year has become very light for cultivators, especially for people like Ming Xuan, who have been adrift for a long time and have no relatives to speak of, the New Year has become a daily and ordinary day, but on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, he still made an exception to have a hangover with Ou Zhiyang, which can be regarded as a celebration of the New Year.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, as soon as the hour arrived, Mingxuan had already packed up properly, and after having the dragon ring, the travel became extremely easy and freehand, and he could go out "empty-handed".
In winter, the sky was slightly bright, the time was still early, and most of the people were still immersed in a warm sleep, but Ming Xuan had already dragged Ou Zhiyang out of the door, and he had already discussed with Chen Yihe that they would go out to the city gate together.
Sure enough, when he arrived at the gate of Chen's mansion, Chen Yihe was already waiting there, and surprisingly, Haoyue was also in the team.
"I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting!" Ming Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and said apologetically, if it hadn't taken a lot of time to get Ou Zhiyang up, he could have arrived first.
"It's okay, we've only been there for a while. Chen Yihe said with a smile, but judging from the snowflakes piled up on the shoulders of the Chen family's disciples, it should have been here for a while.
"In that case, let's go!" The rendezvous with Chen Yihe had already been delayed, and Ming Xuan didn't want to delay the rendezvous with the big team.
"Okay, then let's go, but Sister She's still has a few words to say to Brother Gu, you can catch up." Chen Yihe smiled slightly, and led everyone to the city gate, and also took Ou Zhiyang, who had a lewd face.
"Miss Haoyue, do you have anything to say to you?" Ming Xuan was concerned about the team, and his mind was not here at all.
"When I was in Liangcheng, I just asked you to call me Haoyue, but I didn't expect that a year has passed, and you haven't changed it yet. Haoyue said without resentment.
"This ...... I'm still a little unaccustomed to it. Ming Xuan said embarrassedly.
"If I hadn't seen Sister Ling packing her luggage, and I didn't know that you were going to go out of the city together to run errands today, I'm afraid that you would torture and do it quietly, if I hadn't waited here deliberately, wouldn't you have thought about saying goodbye to me?" Haoyue said aggrievedly, her eyes were a little red, and her delicate body trembled slightly in the cold wind and ice, which made people feel pity.
"No...... No, because this matter is very important, and for the sake of secrecy, we can only travel quietly, or I will definitely say goodbye to you. Ming Xuan hurriedly explained in a panic, facing women, especially grieving women, Ming Xuan would rather face ten terrifying enemies.
"Is that really the case?" said Hazetsuki, with tears glistening in her eyes.
"I've known you for a short time, do you think I'll be the kind of person who doesn't say goodbye?" Ming Xuan comforted softly.
"Then in your heart, what kind of person is Haoyue?" Haoyue couldn't help but ask.
"This ...... I really don't know what to say, a friend of mine once said that the so-called beauty should be the appearance of flowers, the sound of birds, the moon as gods, jade as bones, ice and snow as skin, autumn water as posture, poetry as the heart, I think this sentence is also very appropriate to describe you. Suddenly, Ming Xuan remembered what Xie Qishan had said.
"Poof...... Nonsense! How can I be as good as you say. Hearing this, Haoyue couldn't help but feel shy, and burst into laughter, like ice and snow melting, and flowers blooming.
"I really think it's very appropriate. Seeing that Haoyue's mood improved, Ming Xuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his mood also improved a lot......
"Okay, I know you still have important things to do, so I won't embarrass you, I also believe that you are not that kind of person, my martial arts are low, and I can't help you much, this is for you, I hope it can keep you safe!" Haoyue said softly, handed Ming Xuan a small red cloth bag, and after Ming Xuan took the cloth bag, he ran away with a red face.
It turned out to be a very delicately embroidered sachet, with the word "peace" embroidered with golden silk thread on one side, and two mandarin ducks playing in the water on the other side.
......
At three o'clock, the sky was hazy, and at the gate of the ice city, all the people had already arrived, except for the leader Ming Xuan.
"The time is about to come, why haven't you seen Gu Mingxuan come over yet?" Ou Zhiyang said as he paced back and forth on the side.
"Don't be impatient, the Chen Mansion is not far from here, with Brother Gu's skills, it only takes a while to arrive. Chen Yihe said lightly.
"Sister Yiling, what is this Haoyue girl looking for Gu Mingxuan?" Ou Zhiyang smiled and asked Chen Yiling instead.
"How do I know?" said Chen Yiling angrily.
"You have a very good relationship with Haoyue, don't you know?" Ou Zhiyang continued to ask unwillingly.
"I have a very good relationship with her, but I am not a roundworm in her stomach, how can I know everything?" Chen Yiling said helplessly, having said that, Yiling still sighed, and seemed to have an indescribable melancholy.
Seeing that the two brothers and sisters were all in the same place, Ou Zhiyang didn't ask any questions, and walked aside boredly and waited by himself.
"Everyone is ready to go, Brother Gu is here!" Chen Yihe's sharp eyes saw Ming Xuan galloping in the distance, and it didn't take long for his kung fu to reach everyone's eyes.
"I'm sorry to delay everyone's time. Ming Xuan said apologetically, although the distance from Chen's Mansion to the city gate was not close, but Ming Xuan ran all the way, and his breath was not chaotic at all, as if he was fine.
"The time is just right, and the people have arrived, leader, give the order!" Chen Yihe said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go!" Ming Xuan smiled and waved his hand, and everyone set off in a mighty manner.
......
Above the attic of the Chen Mansion, Hao Yue was staring at the slowly departing crowd, her eyes were deep, and there was a young woman standing next to her, but it was her fifth grandmother, Chen Xinrui.
"Silly girl, no one is gone, what are you looking at?" Chen Xinrui said lovingly.
"Grandma, do you think it's too late for me to practice the Ice Heart Technique now?" Hao Yue asked coldly, causing Chen Xinrui to look stunned.
