Chapter 655 The overall situation has been decided
The demon-turning magic method moisturizes things silently. When facing Chu Yuansheng, Chu Xiu did not use much mental power. He just used his mental power to guide Chu Yuansheng's inner emotions.
If Chu Yuan Shengzhen has no obsession with the position of the leader of the Punishment Hall and no ideas, then no matter how Chu Xiu guides him, it will be useless.
But on the contrary, what Chu Xiu aroused was the desire and inner demons in Chu Yuansheng's heart!
Chu Yuansheng looked at Chu Xiu in confusion: "The position of hall master should be mine?"
Chu Xiu nodded and said solemnly: "Of course it is your thing. Brother Chu, think about it carefully. If there was no Master Chu Kuangge in the past, where would there be the Guanzhong Torture Hall now?
You are Lord Chu Kuangge’s only son, and the Guanzhong Punishment Hall will be passed on to you in the future, is that wrong?”
Chu Yuansheng said with a dejected look on his face: "I was too useless, so in the end my father passed the position of Hall Master to Hall Master Guan."
Chu Xiu saluted Chu Kuangge's coffin and said, "This is precisely because Lord Chu Kuangge is selfless, so he did this. Master Guan Hall has lived up to Lord Chu Kuangge's trust and developed the Guanzhong Punishment Hall into this state."
.
But what now? Hall Master Guan is dead. No one in the entire Guanzhong Punishment Hall can afford this position, except you, Brother Chu.
You are Lord Chu Kuangge’s only son, and you have an identity and a reputation. Currently, the Guanzhong Punishment Hall is leaderless. If you are the leader of this hall, who else is qualified to take the position besides you, Brother Chu?”
Chu Xiu's words continued to arouse the desire in Chu Yuansheng's heart. The fire in his heart that had been extinguished long ago, and his dream of becoming the master of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall seemed to be so close to him for the first time.
However, although Chu Yuansheng was affected by the inner demon rotation method, the inner demon rotation method only affected his thoughts and would not really turn him into an idiot puppet who did not know how to think.
Chu Yuansheng still hesitated and said: "But if I become the master of this hall, how can I convince the public? After all, my strength is here, not even as good as an inspector."
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said: "Brother Chu, you don't have to worry about this. You are my eldest brother, and my wife is the widow of Hall Master Guan. We will all stand by your side. No one in the entire Guanzhong torture hall dares to object!"
As long as you nod, Brother Chu, and discuss things tomorrow, I will use my power to help you become the leader of this hall!"
Seeing that Chu Yuansheng was still hesitant, Chu Xiu's voice sounded faintly in Chu Yuansheng's ears: "Brother Chu, Master Chu Kuangge's coffin is here, and his spirit in heaven is also watching.
All fathers want their children to succeed. Who doesn’t want his children to succeed and achieve great things?
Lord Chu Kuangge must have thought about it too, but he died unexpectedly in the hands of Lord Luo Shenjun that year. You are still young, so only the master of Guan Hall can inherit this position. Lord Chu Kuangge also did it for the good of the entire Guanzhong Punishment Hall.
But now no one is competing with you for this position. Who else could you take the position of the leader of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall? Don’t you want to show Master Chu Kuangge’s spirit in heaven that one day his son will finally inherit his father’s legacy and sit on the throne?
Got this position?"
Chu Xiu's last sentence finally broke Chu Yuansheng's mood. He seemed to have figured something out. He took a deep breath, looked directly at Chu Xiu, and said: "I promised you, but I hope this time,
Don’t lie to me.”
A smile appeared on the corner of Chu Xiu's mouth and he said: "Brother Chu, please rest assured, I will never lie to anyone I lie to."
After patting Chu Yuansheng, who was still a little distracted, Chu Xiu turned around and walked out of the Chu family mansion with Tang Ya.
Tang Ya said from behind Chu Xiu: "Sir, you are now supporting Chu Yuan to become the hall master. What if he stays as the hall master for a long time and develops other thoughts?"
Chu Xiu said lightly: "No, my brother Chu is actually quite sensible. If I hadn't stirred up his desire this time, he wouldn't have agreed to take over the position of the hall master.
The most important thing is that my brother Chu's abilities are really limited. Even if he really has the heart, he doesn't have the power.
It can be said that the Guanzhong Punishment Hall has truly gained a foothold in the world since Chu Kuangge's generation. It would not be a bad idea to let it return to the hands of the Chu family at this time.
Of course, it's just that the title is back in the hands of the Chu family, as long as we can actually control the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, then there will be no problem."
Tang Ya nodded. Chu Xiu was right. With Chu Yuansheng's ability and the city government, even if he had different intentions, he was still powerless.
In the early morning of the next day, the proceedings at the Guanzhong Punishment Hall had already begun.
The other three execution officers, as well as Si Ming and other leaders of the execution division, have all arrived, including Guan Siyu's disciple Yuchi.
Although Yuchi's strength cannot be compared with others, he is Guan Siyu's direct disciple after all, and he still has a certain right to speak on such occasions.
The meeting hall was completely silent, no one communicated, and no one dared to talk nonsense.
Because the situation has become clear, if Chu Xiu wants to be the leader of the hall, they can't stop him, and whoever stops him will die.
But just because they can't stop it doesn't mean they have nothing to do.
If Chu Xiu insists on being the leader of this hall, then the entire Guanzhong Punishment Hall will definitely fall apart. At that time, they will have to leave at worst. If they can't afford to offend them, why can't they afford to hide? All the people under his command will be gone.
, there is no point in them continuing to be the executioners.
At this moment, Chu Xiu led Chu Yuansheng into the meeting hall.
When everyone saw that Chu Yuansheng was there, everyone was stunned, but then a look of disdain appeared in their eyes.
They all thought that Chu Yuansheng came to support Chu Xiu and wanted to support him in becoming the leader of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall.
Chu Yuansheng has a special status in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall. No matter how weak his strength and ability are, he is also the only son of Chu Kuangge. With this aura, he can gain the respect of all the Guanzhong Punishment Hall warriors, even if it is only in public.
respect from above.
But now he wants to stand up for Chu Xiu, a demonic murderer who is seeking to seize the position of the leader of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall. This is a bit too low-priced, and it is simply embarrassing Lord Chu Kuangge.
But what happened next shocked everyone.
Chu Xiu did not sit on the main seat, but helped Chu Yuansheng to sit on the main seat. He stood aside and said solemnly: "Everyone, the Guanzhong torture hall has experienced great changes, but it cannot be leaderless.
At present, in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, there are only a handful of people who are qualified to assume the position of the hall leader.
Chu Yuansheng is the only son of Lord Chu Kuangge. He needs prestige and fame, so I recommend him to take up the position of the leader of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall. Do you have any doubts?"
Everyone present looked at each other with astonishment in their eyes. No one expected that Chu Xiu actually asked Chu Yuansheng to be the hall master. How could he still play like this?
However, everyone present remained silent because they didn't know whether they should agree or not.
As the only son of Master Chu Kuangge, Chu Yuansheng has this status, but in terms of prestige, at least everyone present knows who Chu Yuansheng is. He has a lot of prestige.
Everyone respects him only because they respect Master Chu Kuangge, and it has nothing to do with Chu Yuansheng himself.
And now that Chu Xiu personally supports Chu Yuansheng to become the leader of the hall, even an idiot can guess that Chu Yuansheng is just a puppet, and Chu Xiu is the one who really calls the shots behind the scenes.
But if they don't agree, and Chu Yuansheng's identity is here, doesn't this mean that they disrespect Lord Chu Kuangge?
Chu Xiu's move was really clever. It put them in a dilemma, so keeping silent was the best choice.
At this time, Chu Xiu suddenly sneered at Yin Botong and said: "Master Yin, I know that you and I had enmity before, but now you are afraid that you don't want me to stay in the Guanzhong torture hall.
However, grudges can be resolved later, but now when you are in chaos in our Guanzhong Punishment Hall, you sent people out of the city to contact the Eastern Qi court. Fang Sha sold my Guanzhong Punishment Hall once, and you plan to sell it a second time?"
Seeing Chu Xiu suddenly pointing the finger at him, Yin Botong quickly shouted: "You are talking nonsense! I didn't!"
It is true that Yin Botong had a grudge against Chu Xiu, but because of this, he had to be even more cautious at this time and keep a low profile, for fear that Chu Xiu would notice him.
At this critical moment, the Guanzhong Punishment Hall is leaderless, and Chu Xiu has sole control. Outside Guanzhong City, there are still a group of dragon-riding imperial guards and Chu Xiu's men guarding him. Even if he is insane, he will not engage in small tricks in secret at this time.
Looking for death.
Chu Xiu snorted coldly: "How dare you make sophistry after eating something that's inside and outside!"
After the words fell, Chu Xiu did not give Yin Botong a chance to continue to distinguish. He waved his hand, and he used the magic blood to the extreme. In an instant, all the blood in Yin Botong's body boiled, his blood vessels burst, and wisps of blood flowed from Yin Botong's body.
It was forcefully sucked out of the body.
Yin Botong was shocked and just about to use Gang Qi to suppress it, when he saw that the Gang Qi that had been absorbed out of the body condensed into the shape of a scimitar. In an instant, his body-protecting Gang Qi was broken, and it was
Just cut off the head!
There were two soft sounds of ‘dong’.
Yin Botong's body and head fell to the ground.
Chu Xiu stood behind Chu Yuansheng, looking at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Now, do you agree that Chu Yuansheng will become the new head of our Guanzhong Punishment Hall?"
There was silence for a moment, and Chu Simo was the first to stand up, cupping his hands and saying, "See the Hall Master!"
Among the people present, Chu Simo was the one who had the closest relationship with Chu Xiu because of his disciple Chu Xiaode. He had also spoken for Chu Xiu before.
The most important thing is that he was greatly favored by Chu Kuangge before, and now Chu Yuansheng takes over as the leader of Guanzhong Punishment Hall. Even if he knows that the actual controller behind Guanzhong Punishment Hall is Chu Xiu, he is willing to agree.
Seeing this scene, everyone else could only stand up helplessly, bowed their hands to Chu Yuansheng and said, "See the hall master!"
At this time, they bowed and saluted, and they didn't know whether they were saluting Chu Yuansheng or Chu Xiu who was standing behind Chu Yuansheng.
But this is no longer important. What is important is that they have surrendered.
Of course, you don't have to give in. Yin Botong's body is still there on the ground.
Although even they didn't know whether Yin Botong had done any tricks, it was obvious that the price for disobedience was death.
