MTL - The Sword Named No Way Out-Chapter 93
The gates of ghosts everywhere in the world are finally closed.
The torrential yellow spring returned to the landing mansion, the billowing black air dissipated, and the strange clouds that covered the sky and the sun finally dispersed, revealing the light of the sky.
Most of the evil ghosts who have been suppressed in the depths of Huangquan for hundreds of years were released on purpose by Qu Xie, wandering in the streets and alleys, causing grievances everywhere, and every household is haunted by ghosts. Therefore, in the ninety-nine and eighty-one days after Qu Xie was suppressed, all the major families set up altars to save these dead souls. , was forcibly pulled out by Changsun Chengfeng and set up an altar, holding a copy of the "Taishang Chaodu Sutra" and recited it dizzily day and night.
The last thing Xu Shuangce wanted to do in his life was to chant sutras, to come out of the ghost garden with the little fox in his arms, and when he saw this scene head-on, he immediately waved his sleeves and wanted to leave. In the end, before taking two steps, the Taoist people headed by Changsun Chengfeng rushed up to cry and shouted for their mothers to drag their sleeves and hug their thighs. They dragged them back, and even temporarily built a Dongtian Temple for Xu Zongzhu. The shrine, censer, and fruit plate were complete. Wen Xiuyang and the disciples of the Cangyang Sect knelt down on the ground, waiting eagerly for Sect Master Xu to use his divine power to save the dead.
The eldest grandson Chengfeng originally wanted to attack Gong Wei, but Gong Wei was so alert, he curled his tail silently like a little fox, his two round eyes were full of heartache and regret overstretched. The eldest grandson Chengfeng and the little fox looked at each other sincerely for a moment, and as expected, they were defeated. They had to arrest Yuchirui Wuhuada, who sneaked out to crack peanuts. The poor next leader was locked in a small black room and missed Two months of menstruation.
Eighty-one days after ninety-nine, tens of millions of ghosts were saved, and they rushed from the human world to ghost gardens to reincarnate one after another, and clarity and peace were finally restored everywhere.
This feat can be described as rich and colorful. The underworld that suppressed countless dead souls was almost wiped out, which means that all the great masters have used manpower to do something that the ghost prince has not done for hundreds of years.
But after the human world has been cleaned up, the internal reconstruction of the Xuanmen Hundred Families is still very difficult-the Shengxiantai collapsed, the Tuya was flattened, and countless children from major families were killed and injured. serious damage.
If you want to rebuild, you have to have money.
In the past, when Ying Kai was still the leader of the alliance, he ordered to save a huge sum of money in Xianmeng, a total of one million taels of gold. Normally, no one was allowed to move it. Only after encountering an unprecedented catastrophe, it was specially allocated to the Taoist family. It is suitable for the current situation for post-disaster resettlement and reconstruction. But the millions of gold used for this special fund can only be controlled by the leader, without the leader, there is no way to control it; so after peace is restored in the world, the strongest desire of the Taoist schools is to quickly establish the next leader.
Ying Kai's last wish was for Yu Chirui to take over the Xianmeng - under normal circumstances, there would definitely be people who would jump out and object loudly, but unexpectedly this time the unanimous vote was passed, and the big families were as docile as quails, with no voice of doubt .
The elder Sun Chengfeng, who was in charge of voting, was relieved when he saw this, so he and Mu Duozhu held the leader's seal together and went to ask Yu Chirui to come out of the mountain. As a result, Yu Chirui, who was sitting at home cracking peanuts while watching "Xian Jian Ji", was shocked by the news, and slowly raised his head. Although his handsome face was expressionless, his pupils were clearly trembling: "...why don't you let the palace But go."
Changsun Chengfeng said sincerely: "Jingxian said that the way of heaven does not care about human affairs, and everything in the world has its own cause and effect."
Yu Chirui immediately said, "Xu Shuangce is not the way of heaven, Xu Shuangce was ascended by a mortal."
"The **** of the East Heaven said that it is okay to contribute money, but not to contribute strength."
"..." Yu Chirui shifted his gaze, pointing at Mu Duozhu who was hiding in the corner: "The Yizong is the oldest."
This is true, Mu Duozhu, who looks young, has actually lived over a hundred years old, and is indeed the most experienced person among all of them—but Changsun Chengfeng shook his head regretfully: "Brother Mu said that you should spend money and work hard." Even if it doesn’t work, being the leader will prevent him from making money.”
Yu Chirui glared at Mu Duozhu, and Mu Duozhu pretended to admire the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.
After a long period of stalemate to no avail, Yu Chirui had no choice but to cast his sights on the last candidate in the world—Changsun Chengfeng, and said solemnly: "Ju Zong has both virtue and ability, which is what everyone expects."
The eldest grandson Chengfeng immediately declined: "No, no, I'm only a shallow learner, and I really don't have the qualifications."
Yu Chirui insisted: "You preside over the matter of saving the dead."
The eldest grandson Chengfeng clasped his fists and bowed his hands: "It's the collective efforts of all the immortals, the gods of the East Heaven have made great achievements through hard work."
Yu Chirui said: "But the God of the Eastern Heaven was preserved only after you built the temple."
"To tell you the truth, the temple has been built in a hurry, and there are only three mud tile houses."
Yu Chirui still didn't give up: "The matter of voting for the leader is also your busy schedule."
"The important event of the Immortal Alliance, which is expected by everyone, is the credit of me alone!" Changsun Chengfeng was about to break out in cold sweat: "Jianzong is the aspiration of the Xuanmen family, please don't refuse any more!"
"..."
Yu Chirui frowned, and finally deep doubts arose in his heart: "Impossible, you are so hardworking, no one from the Taoist schools nominated you to be the leader?"
Changsun Chengfeng murmured silently.
Mu Duozhu in the corner finally couldn't stand it anymore, turned around and sighed: "No, everyone is scared seeing him working so hard."
Yu Chirui was stunned: "What are you afraid of?"
"Don't you think he can easily become the second Ying Kai if he continues like this?" Mu Duozhu said sadly.
The room fell into dead silence, Yu Chirui stared at the innocent eldest grandson Chengfeng, and couldn't find a reason to refute for a long time.
Yu Chirui finally lived up to everyone's expectations...or Qianlu was poor, and took over the position of leader of the Immortal League under the eager eyes of the Taoist schools.
As a result, even the Xianmeng was not rebuilt, and the succession ceremony was not done in time. When he opened his eyes the next morning after taking office, Yu Chirui understood why everyone had avoided the position of leader before.
"Reconstruction appropriation?" Yu Chirui raised his head from "Xian Jian Ji" while knocking peanuts, and asked inexplicably, "Allow, why haven't you allocated yet?"
The eldest grandson Chengfeng came to visit again, and sat on the opposite side of the table rubbing his hands uneasily: "Master Ying once saved a million taels of gold for this matter."
Ying Kai has a clean sleeve and a simple life, and what he likes to do most on weekdays is to save money, Yu Chirui took it for granted: "Huh?"
"...he put the money...in the cornucopia of magic artifacts that faded away."
"and then?"
Changsun Chengfeng hesitated to speak, but finally bit the bullet and said: "When the Mieshi Soldiers slammed down the fading with a knife, the entire Dai Mountain collapsed, and the cornucopia was... blasted to pieces."
Yu Chirui's eyes froze instantly.
"Now there is not a single coin in the Xianmeng." Changsun Chengfeng looked at him with courage, his eyes carried the common expectation of all the monks in the world: "Leader Yuchi, can you... give this money?"
Crash!
The latest special issue of "Kaiyuan Miscellaneous News" included in the collection of washing swords: the new leader Yuchi Changsheng, a complete collection of heroic portraits! 》 came out and fell on the table.
After a long period of sluggishness, leader Yuchi seemed to wake up suddenly from the shock, grabbed the divine sword Rakshata, staggered to his feet, and walked out.
Changsun Chengfeng hurriedly chased after him: "Changsheng! Changsheng, don't be impulsive! I'll help you pay 10,000...20,000 taels, don't do anything stupid!"
Without turning his head, Yuchi Rui squeezed out a few words from his teeth: "Go to Cangyang Mountain, borrow money."
The Cangyang Sect was the first in the whole world to start rebuilding the sect—Sect Master Xu has always been wealthy, and he doesn't need the Xianmeng's appropriation, and he doesn't care for that little money at all.
Now that he has ascended, Xu Shuangce should leave the human world and return to the heaven. But the Cangyang Sect couldn't choose a successor for a long time, and the succession ceremony of the leader of the Immortal League has not yet been held, so he temporarily lives in seclusion in Cangyang Mountain and continues to be the nominal Cangyang Sect Leader.
The new leader and Juzong came to visit, and the eldest disciple Wen Xiuyang rushed to greet him. However, Yu Chirui didn't wait for the lead at all, and flew up the back mountain with a swish of the sword, and arrived at the Xuanji Hall in a familiar way. There was a little fox napping on the peach blossom tree in front of the hall, looking out curiously. Come and look at them both.
Yu Chirui grabbed Changsun Chengfeng, immediately hid behind a tree, and waved at the little fox.
"?"
Gong Wei didn't know why, so he jumped off the tree and ran in front of them.
Yu Chirui squatted down and looked at him, and asked, "Can you lend me one million taels of gold?"
The little fox suddenly had a fierce look in his eyes, and said, "Do you think I look like a million taels?"
Yu Chirui nodded: "Understood."
Then he pulled out a rope from his bosom, quickly **** the little fox, tied a knot, and carried it to Changsun Chengfeng.
Gong Wei: "?!"
Changsun Chengfeng shivered on the spot holding the little fox, almost threw the supreme **** out, and asked in a trembling voice: "Changsheng, what do you want to do?!"
Yu Chirui gave him a very majestic "silence" look, then took out a handful of peanuts from his bosom and stuffed them to Gong Wei, warning in a low voice: "Don't move around, can you steal a million yuan from Xu Shuangce's hands?" It's up to you."
"..."
One person and one fox watched Yu Chirui turn around, took a deep breath, held the Rakshasa Tower tightly, strode up the wide white jade steps in front of the Xuanji Hall, stretched out his hands to push open the hall door, and then straightened his back and crossed the threshold .
"—The lord is here, what's the matter?" Xu Shuangce's calm voice came from the hall.
Clang! Yuchirui put his sword on the ground, and his voice was tense: "Gong Wei is already in our hands, please borrow money from Sect Master Xu!"
Everyone outside had their hearts raised in their throats, but Xu Shuangce fell silent for a moment and asked, "How much do you want to borrow?"
"One million taels of gold!" "..."
Every minute and every second was extraordinarily long, and Yu Chirui, who seemed to be calm, was already having cramps in his calves. After a long while, Xu Shuangce's voice finally sounded again in the hall, sneered lightly, and mocked:
"It's only one million taels."
The peanuts in the little fox's paws were all scattered on the ground.
"..." Changsun Chengfeng murmured the question on everyone's mind: "How rich is Xu Zongzhu?"
Half a quarter of an hour later, Yu Chirui, carrying the bewildered little fox, handed over his life's only brother, Tie Zi, who had died, to Xu Shuangce himself, and said solemnly, "He is yours now."
Then he turned around without hesitation, and quickly left Cangyang Sect with the one million taels of gold ticket signed and pledged by Sect Master Xu.
The little fox blinked, looked at the back of leader Yuchi, and said slowly: "...I seem to know how much I am worth in Changsheng's heart."
Then he turned over, turned into Gong Wei with a bang, hooked Sect Master Xu's neck and said intimately: "But I still don't know how much I am worth in Xu Bai's heart."
Xu Shuangce glanced at him calmly, but didn't answer the question.
Gong Wei didn't take it seriously, sat in Xu Shuangce's arms, and announced with a smile: "I belong to Xu Bai."
The silk robe he wore when he got up this morning hung lazily on his shoulders, and slid down to the side with his movements, revealing his white and sunken collarbone, and the character "Xu" in blood-red seal script under the shoulder socket was eye-catching.
Xu Shuangce's eyes fell on it, and he raised his hand and stroked the mark with his thumb, and said "huh" in a low voice.
Gong Wei lowered her head, and in this posture, she picked up the sleeve of Sect Master Cangyang's robe with her teeth, and dexterously took off the cuff of her inner coat. I saw Xu Shuangce's strong arm was finally exposed in the air, and there was also a bright red inscribed word on the inside of his right wrist——Wei.
"Xu Bai is mine too," Gong Wei said happily, turning his head and looking at Xu Shuangce from the corner of his eyes.
