Chapter 35: The Battle for Roots (Part I)
The middle-aged man understood that he had made the general unhappy, and if he wanted to calm the general's anger, he could only tell the list of people who would go to the desolate world to help the war as soon as possible, so as to offset the unhappiness in the general's heart. Thinking of this, the middle-aged man was clever, and the whole person stopped interjecting and fell into contemplation alone.
The middle-aged man was the wise man of the tribe and the head of the clan, and when he was silent, several people around him stopped talking and looked at him, his eyes full of inquiring looks. All this, the evil slave saw in his eyes, and he was also very curious about what this middle-aged man would arrange.
The middle-aged man already knew the reaction of the crowd. In fact, this matter is not too big, but the scope involved is a bit large. The number of people sent to the flood famine has been determined, it is only three, and the cultivation cannot be Da Luo Jin Xian. In this way, the candidates were controlled at the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
It is Taiyi True Immortal, and Taiyi Xuan Immortal is not successful. In this way, the middle-aged man had some eyebrows in his heart, but he was still a little hesitant, there were dozens of Taiyi Golden Immortals in their tribe, but which one was the most suitable to send. Just as he was struggling, a sentence from the evil slave's previous words suddenly flashed in his mind.
"I have decided to ask your tribe to send three Taiyi Golden Immortal-level heart demons to the Flood Wilderness to assist the Phantom Clan and stabilize that hard-won base camp in the Flood Wilderness World. I hope that you will go back and select the best men, and in three days the great king will personally send them into the desolation. It was this sentence that made the middle-aged man suddenly enlightened.
"Yes, this time I was sent to the Flood World to assist the Phantom Clan to stabilize the base camp, not to rely on the strong combat power of the Heart Demon Clan. Therefore, the demons sent to the flood wilderness do not seek to be the strongest, as long as their brains are clever enough. Able to assess the situation. Grow your base camp. That's the main purpose. "Come to think of this. The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, he raised his head, which had been lowered, and looked at the evil slave with a confident face.
"Don't worry, General, I have understood your thoughts, and in three days, I will definitely send the most suitable and strong people to the Evil Slave Palace. The middle-aged man confidently said to the evil slave.
"Okay, General Ben is waiting for you to send your tribe's good son. Then go back and prepare, and in three days send the three warriors to my dormitory. The slave gave a happy thumbs up, waved his hand, and let them go back and get ready.
The eight Da Luo Jin Immortals of the Heart Demon Clan saluted the evil slave and slowly withdrew from the dormitory, setting up the clouds and flying towards the tribe. Although I would love to know the thoughts and arrangements of the middle-aged man. But they knew that now was not the time. So, everyone suppressed the curiosity in their hearts and flew towards the tribe at a faster speed.
There is something in mind, and everyone naturally flies much faster. After a short time he returned to the tribe and sat in the big house in the center. After the eight people sat down, the old man who was sitting next to the middle-aged man's left hand hurriedly asked, "Patriarch, tell me about it! As soon as Lao Dao's words fell, a few people sitting at the bottom also looked at the middle-aged man anxiously.
The middle-aged man looked at the anxious crowd, and did not answer immediately, but reached out and picked up the cyan teapot next to him. I poured myself a cup of tea and gently picked it up. I went up and blew on the floating tea on the top, and took a small peck. When the tea is in the mouth, a rich fragrance fills the mouth in an instant, and the thick fragrance spreads down the throat to the whole body.
The middle-aged man held his breath for a while, let out a long breath, and shook his head with an intoxicated face. This action made several elders around him anxious. The rough man who was reprimanded by the middle-aged man in the Evil Slave Hall couldn't help but shout: "Patriarch, hurry up? We are all waiting to hear it! ”
The words of the rude man instantly destroyed the feelings brewed by the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man couldn't help glaring at him, and snorted angrily. Looking at the teacup in his hand, smelling the fragrant tea, the middle-aged man did not have the slightest desire to drink it, and put the teacup aside.
He swept his eyes over the people around him, coughed lightly, and said, "As for the reason, I don't need to say it, you know it yourself. And this time, I'm going to send Xinji, Xinlian, and Xinyi to the Flood Wilderness, I don't know if you have any objections or questions. If so, just ask, and I'll answer your questions. ”
Hearing the middle-aged patriarch's answer, everyone glanced at each other. One of the bald Daoists asked, "Patriarch, doesn't the king want to be a strong man, why didn't he send the top three of our clan's highest strength at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level to the Honghuang Wilderness, but instead sent the three of them." Aren't you afraid that they will mess up what the king has told us?"
As soon as the bald Daoist's voice fell, two more elders opened their mouths and echoed: "Yes, Patriarch, the strength of the three people with this heart mark is a little incompetent for this important task!" Hearing the opposition of these four elders, the middle-aged patriarch couldn't help frowning, and the irritability in his eyes flashed.
He secretly said in his heart: "These three fools, with your IQ, you still have to compete with me for the patriarch." You don't look at what the top three Taiyi Golden Immortal level strength are. Although the strength is strong, the brain is much worse. One by one, they are like the king of heaven, and they can do things, joke?" Thinking of this, the middle-aged patriarch glanced at the four who objected with disdain.
All this was watched by the few remaining people. Among them, the rough man and the other two elders retorted as soon as the bald Daoist's voice fell: "Bald, you don't want to think about this matter but the king explained it, how can the patriarch not think about it." Otherwise, things will go wrong, and our tribe will be wiped out. What are your intentions in framing my tribe and injustice?"
As soon as the rough man spoke, the middle-aged patriarch had the urge to laugh. It is really worthy of the most loyal subordinates, as soon as there is something, he will personally charge into battle, although the reason in the words is very far-fetched, but it also says the fact that the scope of this matter is too wide, and one carelessness will have the disaster of extermination. Therefore, for the rude man's words, the middle-aged patriarch did not stop it, but let him pinch each other with those few clowns who jumped off the beam.
"You! you...... I, I!" The bald Taoist was overshadowed by the middle-aged patriarch's general, and couldn't help but point at him angrily and annoyed. It felt like a clown jumping off the beam, embarrassing.
The old man, who was sitting on the left hand side of the patriarch, couldn't stand it anymore, he slapped the arm of the chair, and scolded angrily: "Okay, shut up for me! You don't know what kind of place this is!" Lao Dao scolded, and in an instant, the two sides stopped arguing for the first time, glanced at each other stupidly, and lowered their heads unwillingly.
When the middle-aged patriarch saw that Lao Dao was angry, he knew that the time had come. Hurriedly opened his mouth and thin the mud, he glared at the rough man, and scolded in his mouth: "Just you have a lot of things, let me go aside." After speaking, he glared at the other two elders again. Then he smiled and said to the old man: "Don't be angry, I blame me for not explaining this matter clearly." I'll explain it to them. ”
Hearing the words of the middle-aged patriarch, Lao Dao glanced at him angrily, don't turn his head and ignore it. Seeing this, the middle-aged patriarch was not angry, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's all my fault, I didn't explain it clearly, I'll explain it to you now, my arrangement, so that everyone can understand my arrangement." ”
All this, the old way knows what's going on. He didn't stop it because it was a problem that the tribe could never avoid, and as the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. It's the same with this tribe, every time a new patriarch is elected, there is opposition. And against the middle-aged man were the three elders led by the bald elder.
Lao Dao's status in the tribe of demons is very special, although he is not the patriarch, but his status is the same level as the patriarch, and sometimes it is higher than the patriarch. Because Lao Dao is the younger brother of the patriarch of the previous generation, he is the uncle of these elders. As the only surviving elder, with his own cultivation, he is also a great consummation of Da Luo Jin Immortal, and he has a lot of say in the tribe.
But Lao Dao is usually very low-key, never interferes in the management of the tribe, and delegates power to the patriarch. Because in his cognition, since you are the head of the clan and I am not, why should I go to great lengths to do things that do not belong to me. The old man also knows the conflict between the bald man and the middle-aged man, but he doesn't stop it, as long as there is no crisis tribe, no matter how much trouble he makes, it will only be his own family's trouble, and he will not crisis the tribe.
The bald and middle-aged patriarchs also understand this truth, and the two of them respect Lao Tao very much in private. Lao Dao usually has a request or something, and the two of them will do their best to meet it. This is not the fear of his influence, but more importantly, the respect for the character of the old man, because everything the old man did was right for the two of them.
It didn't take long for the middle-aged patriarch to say his thoughts reasonably. Under this clear narrative, Bald couldn't pick out a thorn, although he was unwilling to be unwilling, but he knew that this time his rival was doing well, and he couldn't put the tribe in danger for his own selfish desires.
In desperation, Bald had no choice but to agree. As soon as the bald man let go, his three doglegs also hurried to follow. At this point, the eight principals in the tribe all agreed, and Lao Dao opened his mouth to finalize the matter: "Since you all agree, then tomorrow I will take the three of you to the Evil Slave Palace to see the general, and ask the general to take a look." ”
The next day, the middle-aged patriarch took the three Taiyi Golden Immortal-level demons to the Evil Slave Palace to meet the Evil Slave General. The general was very satisfied with the three of them, and said to the middle-aged patriarch: "Moli, you go back! This thing is very well done, and when the matter is successful, the king will definitely not forget your tribe." ”
Although it was only a verbal promise, the middle-aged patriarch was also satisfied. He first instructed the three of them, and then he saluted the evil slave, turned around and walked out of the evil slave palace, set up the cloud head and flew back to the tribe.
Seeing the middle-aged man disappear, the evil slave smiled and said to the three people standing under the main hall: "You also know your mission, I will take you to the king now, and then the king will send you to the flood wilderness, and after you go to the flood wilderness, you will help the charm to develop my demon clan power." After speaking, the evil slave waved his hand at the three of them, and the four of them disappeared in an instant. (To be continued......)
