Chapter 364 Li Dai Tao Zong
With his arrogance, he was not going to do this. Even though he knew that someone was framed, he was too lazy to explain. But now he has reached a desperate situation. If he cannot eliminate the misunderstandings of his subordinates about him, he may not have thought of leaving here alive.
This is not what the Lord of Zhuxin Pavilion is most worried about. What he is really worried about is another thing.
Last time, Zhuxin Pavilion suffered a loss in the underground cave outside Lizhou Prefecture. Although not many people died that time, the deaths of the four masters were enough to make people feel pain. What's more, it took the boss's efforts and did not get anything. Some people were already dissatisfied with this matter.
Although everyone in the world thinks that he is the head of Zhuxin Pavilion, this is indeed true, but he is not the one who is the one who speaks the same thing about Zhuxin Pavilion. In secret, he has to obey another person.
He didn't know his specific identity, but he could feel that if the other party wanted to let him die, he would definitely not be able to live tomorrow.
He, the pavilion master, was originally introduced by the other party. Since he could lift himself up with one hand, he could naturally fight with one hand.
The last incident made the other party dissatisfied, and this time the matter about Xiao Li Feidao was even more fucked. Originally, they came to take advantage of the situation, but they became the fish in the waters and the only fish.
He didn't know what kind of punishment he would face, but he wouldn't be relaxed.
Compared with the complicated mood of the Lord of Zhuxin Pavilion, the other people's thoughts were much simpler. After listening to Changsun Jingming's explanation, they believed most of them. After all, they were Changsun Jingming's confidants, and there was no reason to deceive them in this matter.
"People, from the perspective of subordinates, we should find another way out to avoid head-on conflicts with people from other forces at present." An old man calmed down and could not see his joy and anger.
He is one of the most powerful Nine Star Venerables, Huode, who is also a master at the peak of the Three Flower Realm.
"That's right, but now the messes around are gathering the encirclement. For the sake of this secret book of Xiao Li's flying sword, the Zhengdao Sect and the Nine Demon Sects have a faint alliance. With the strength of our Zhuxin Pavilion, we cannot fight against it at all. It is not so easy to find a way out." Another old man in green said, who is also one of the Nine Star Venerables, named Mude.
Everyone argued about how to find a safe passage to leave, and some even proposed to force the pass, but were rejected.
Everyone has no hope for Xiao Li’s flying knife secret, perhaps it is a scam from beginning to end.
Suddenly, the Taiyin Venerable among the Nine Stars said: "The Lord, the subordinates have an opinion. But they are a little risky."
"Taiyin, tell me." Changsun Jingming said immediately. What risk does he have to take? If they don't take risks, they will have to wait to die.
The Taiyin Venerable said: "A little over twenty kilometers west of our place, there is a cliff. As long as we climb up the cliff, we can escape from this encirclement."
Changsun Jingming frowned and said, "I know the cliff, but it is probably not that easy to climb over the cliff. The cliff is hundreds of feet high and is as smooth as a mirror. Even if you have the ultimate light skills, you may not be able to climb over it?"
The Taiyin Venerable said: "Precisely because the cliff cannot be crossed, other martial arts people concluded that we would not go there, so there were not many people in the cliff area. And in the gaps on both sides of the cliff, there were masters from the Beggars' Sect and Sword Valley guarding them."
Venerable Huode said: "Since you can't get over, so what if you are completely unattended? Is it still impossible to get over it? What's more, not all of us are good at light skills."
The Taiyin Venerable said: "It is said that it is impossible to climb over, but it is just that it is just that it is directly climbing over with light skills. If we use some things, we can still climb over that cliff."
Seeing that the people around him were looking at him anxiously, the Taiyin Venerable no longer kept it in his arms, and said, "We can carry a rope of more than ten feet long by two people with excellent light skills, connect the two people together with both ends, then climb up alternately, and use treasure soldiers to dig footholds on the cliff. In this way, even if the digger falls accidentally, it will fall at most twenty or thirty feet away, so that it will not fall directly to the ground. With these footholds, the people in front will use the rope to pull people who are not good at light skills to climb over."
Everyone was silent. This method could indeed cross the cliff. Taking the person with the best light skills among them as an example, they could directly jump up to a height of fourteen or five feet. If two people were tied together and moved forward alternately, there was still a great hope for success.
However, they all knew that this task could not be completed in a short period of time. In this process, no one could guarantee that no one would come. Once the news spreads, their situation would be even more dangerous than it is now.
This is also the reason why the Taiyin Venerable said that this method is more risky.
After a heated discussion, they finally decided to take a risk.
However, it is impossible to do this directly. They need to do something to attract the attention of those experts before starting to take action, so that the chance of success will be higher.
The only flaw is that people who go to attract other people's attention will be very dangerous, which can be said to be a life-and-death task.
At this time, Changsun Jingming's prestige was also reflected. After he made the decision to implement this plan, two of the Nine Star Venerables, Mude and Sun Venerables, asked to attract other people's attention. The other Venerables did not force it, because the light skills of Mude and Sun Venerables were very good, and they also had extremely strong self-recovery ability.
With these two points, it can be seen that they have stronger survivability in dangerous environments, which is undoubtedly very consistent with this task.
Changsun Jingming also knew this, so he agreed.
Shortly after Mude and Venerable Sun left, Changsun Jingming was also preparing to take the remaining few people to the cliff to find a suitable position to climb over.
There are only five of them in total, but it does not mean that the only five members of Zhuxin Pavilion who survived in this mountain forest are the five of them, as well as Mude and Sun Venerable. More others are hiding in an extremely hidden place, and at least for a short time, those martial arts people could not find them.
Changsun Jingming knew very well that even if there were many masters of Zhuxin Pavilion active at this time, they would only give heads to other martial arts people. Instead of doing so, it would be better to temporarily hide people with a lower strength and leave only the most powerful group of people looking for opportunities to get out of trouble.
There is no doubt that Changsun Jingming's strategy has retained a large part of the new force for Zhuxin Pavilion. Otherwise, they would have to face the other martial arts forces here, and they would definitely die without a burial place in the end.
Changsun Jingming and the other two had just walked to the foot of the mountain when they suddenly heard a sound of stuttering grass and trees coming from the front, and they suddenly became nervous.
This kind of nervousness is not fear, but not wanting to cause trouble.
Before they could hide, a man had already emerged from the bushes beside him.
"Subordinate Changtian worships the Pavilion Master!" As soon as the skinny old man appeared, he paid homage to Changsun Jingming.
This person is the Changtian Venerable who was killed by Chu Yun before! He was wrong. He looked the same as the killed Changtian Venerable, but in fact he was indeed transformed from Chu Yun.
Chu Yun’s purpose is very simple. He first penetrates the enemy and then waits for an opportunity to act. If he can get the Sunflower Book, it will be great. If it doesn’t work, he can kill Changsun Jingming directly, which is a big profit.
When Changsun Jingming saw the "Zhangtian Venerable", he was immediately very happy. He had previously sent Changtian Venerable to search for the members of Zhuxin Pavilion who had rumored to practice Xiao Li's flying sword, hoping to resolve the doubts in his heart.
"Zhengtian, what's the situation? Have you ever found some people?" Changsun Jingming asked impatiently.
Chu Yun immediately said: "I am incompetent and have not found any traces of those people. However, I have found several people who personally saw those who used the Xiao Li flying sword and grabbed two of them. After some questioning, I got some clues from them. Those who have used the Xiao Li flying sword are indeed from Zhuxin Pavilion. They have seen this with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears. As for whether they are using the Xiao Li flying sword, it is impossible to make a conclusion yet. In fact, no one has seen what the real Xiao Li flying sword looks like. Just based on the mystery of the flying sword technique, it is inappropriate to determine that they have practiced Xiao Li flying sword martial arts. This is inappropriate."
Changsun Jingming said helplessly: "Now is not the time to talk about whether it is objective. We all understand this principle, but the key is who else believes it? Now all the people in the world have confirmed that we have obtained the secret of Xiao Li's flying knife. Even if we get out of trouble this time, we will still be in trouble in the future. Therefore, finding the root cause is the key."
"I understand!" Chu Yun said respectfully.
Changsun Jingming nodded and said, "Zhengtian, this matter is left to you. After the successful withdrawal, you will immediately mobilize the entire Zhuxin Pavilion's intelligence force and make sure to figure out the whole thing in the shortest time."
In fact, Changsun Jingming wanted to figure out the whole story, not to prove his innocence to the martial arts world. As the leader of the No. 1 killer organization in the martial arts world, he did not need to prove anything to other forces.
He did this just to give the person behind him an explanation. If the person who manipulated this matter or had too much power, the punishment he would be less, and he would even be forgiven.
Although Chu Yun knew that Changsun Jingming and others wanted to withdraw, he was also a little confused. How could they evacuate? Fly away with wings?
"Peace Master, my subordinates have just arrived all the way, and there are all martial arts masters everywhere along the way. If my subordinates hadn't dodged in time, they would have been discovered long ago. If we had evacuated on a large scale now, wouldn't it be too obvious?" Chu Yun expressed his concern, but in fact he really didn't want Changsun Jingming to think of a way to leave.
