Huode was alone in the garden drinking wine. He looked at the sun in the sky and saw that it was almost noon. He couldn't help but curse.
"What time has it been? Why is this kid still sleeping?"
When he got up, he wanted to wake Gu Qingfeng up, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. Since he had been the grandson for so many days, it would be just a few more days, and Huo De was prepared to continue to be the grandson until Gu Qingfeng agreed.
Ever since he learned that both Jin De and Shui De were plotting to become the leader, Huo De has not enjoyed a day of comfort. It is not that he has not trained disciples over the years, but unfortunately they have either died, been injured, or disappeared without a trace.
, or dead bodies on the street. He knew that these were the tricks of Jin De and Shui De in the end.
What's the use of just knowing?
Of no use.
He is a rough man. He wants to have a city without a city, no backers, and no power of his own. In addition, he was injured during the catastrophe and has not recovered yet. He has no choice but to do many things. If
Unless he has many old friends in Qingyang Realm, it is still unknown whether he can survive to this day.
Originally, he was prepared to fight Jin De and Shuide in the end if it didn't work out.
But he never expected that Gu Qingfeng would suddenly appear.
This gave him hope.
To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that he had no choice, Huo De didn't want to speak to Gu Qingfeng at all, because he knew better than anyone how many crimes Gu Qingfeng suffered in the Yunxia Sect when he was young. After this kid became famous, he didn't kill the Yunxia Sect.
It is a great gift from heaven, and now he is asked to help the Yunxia Sect, which is indeed a bit difficult for this kid.
Besides, this kid is now being judged by heaven and has nothing. Not only can I not help him, but I have actually made things difficult for him.
I really feel sorry for this guy.
It is also completely understandable that Gu Qingfeng needs time to think about it.
Huo De sighed, picked up the wine jar, and began to drink.
"Why is it that a man is drunk so late at noon?"
The sound came, and Huo De knew that Gu Qingfeng had finally gotten up. Looking over, he saw this boy wearing only a single coat, standing at the door, stretching and yawning, as if he had not woken up.
"Oh, Great Ancestor Gu, it's still early, why are you up already?"
Huo De made a sarcastic sound with some displeasure.
"What's the matter? I've only been pretending to be a grandson for a few days and now I'm getting impatient." Gu Qingfeng smiled and said, "You don't want me to help you anymore?"
"You don't want to take advantage of me and act like a good boy." Huo De stood up, took a sip of wine, and said angrily: "I can't pretend to be this grandson any longer. Will you help me or not? Give me a happy word!"
Gu Qingfeng smiled, said nothing, took a basin of cold water and started to wash up.
Seeing that Gu Qingfeng ignored him, Huo De, who was still very stubborn at first, softened immediately. He quickly walked over with a smile, took out his fan and started to fan the wind.
"Uncle Gu, I was wrong...can I still pretend to be a grandson to you?"
"Ancestor, you are my ancestor."
Huode began to shamelessly flatter and beg for mercy.
Gu Qingfeng didn't say anything. After washing, he put on his clothes again, looked at Huo De, shook his head, sighed and said, "Let's go."
Let's go?
Where to go?
Huo De was stunned when he heard such a sentence without beginning or end.
"Don't you want me to help you? At least find a place to discuss it."
"You...gu boy! You..."
Maybe the happiness came so quickly and suddenly that Huo De couldn't react, and he even said something awkwardly: "You...you kid agreed?"
"You've been pretending to be a grandson for so many days, how can I not agree to it?"
"Gu boy! You~! Me!"
Huo De's eyes turned red when he got excited.
"Are you excited?" Gu Qingfeng walked over and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "Come on, why are you crying like this old man? Let's go."
"You kid...do you want to think about it for a few more days...I'm not forcing you!"
Huo De hoped in his heart that Gu Qingfeng would agree, but at the same time he didn't.
I hope it's because he really has no other choice but to find Gu Qingfeng.
He didn't want it to be because he knew that Gu Qingfeng had suffered a lot in the Yunxia Sect when he was young, so it would be really unfair to ask him to agree.
"I've thought about it, there's no need to think about it again."
Gu Qingfeng replied calmly.
He really didn't have to think about it anymore.
Because he didn't think about it from the beginning.
When Huode asked for help, he had already agreed, and even saying he would consider it was just to tease him.
In Gu Qingfeng's heart, Huo De is his savior. If he is in trouble, Gu Qingfeng will never refuse.
Huo De burst into tears with joy and hurried to the cave to tell the master brother the news. Tu De burst into tears when he found out about it and kowtowed again to thank him. Gu Qingfeng saw that he was weak and advised him to go back and rest first, but Tu De
I would rather die than kneel down to atone for my sins and give thanks no matter what.
In a rage, Gu Qingfeng knocked him unconscious and asked Huode to send him back.
When Huode came back, the two discussed the specific matters while drinking.
Originally, Gu Qingfeng thought that it would be enough to just ask the head Tu De to appoint him as the head disciple. If anyone dissatisfied, he would be taught a lesson on the spot and suppressed directly by force.
Gu Qingfeng does not advocate violence, but after five hundred years of practice, he has a deep understanding of one thing, that is, suppression by force is the most effective and fastest way to solve problems. Any strategy is nonsense in the face of absolute force.
However, his idea was rejected by Huode.
"Ancestor! How can things be done like this? Although our Yunxia Sect is a small sect in your eyes, it has been passed down for more than a thousand years. Being in charge of disciples is a big deal. In the future, we will be in charge of the sect. How can we be so hasty?
." Huo De cried with a sad face.
Gu Qingfeng poured a glass of wine and said: "Don't say that you are not a disciple of our Yunxia sect. Even if you are, the head brother does not have the right to make you the head disciple. There must be a charter for this matter, otherwise those bastards of the sect
I can’t believe it at all.”
"People are trying to steal your position as leader, but you still act according to the rules. I mean, Huo De, there's nothing wrong with your mind."
"Ancestor! Listen to me tell you in detail. Let's not talk about whether the head senior brother has the right to make you the chief disciple. Even if he forcibly appoints you as the chief disciple, then... Shui De and Jin De, those two bastards
They will definitely jump out and object, saying that if we don’t act in accordance with the regulations, they will take advantage of us, and other people from the Yunxia Sect will take advantage of them."
"If you use force to suppress Shui De and Jin De, those two brats will definitely lead their disciples to rebel. Don't forget, those two brats control half of the Yunxia Sect.
If we rebel, many people will inevitably follow us to rebel. In addition, since we do not act in accordance with the regulations, people who originally remained neutral will inevitably side with Shui De and Jin De."
"What's more, our Yunxia Sect has been inherited for so many years and has extremely complex interest relationships with the surrounding sects and families. If we force it, it will only destroy these relationships and cause them to defect to Jinde and Shuide. This
Under such circumstances, what's the point of taking back the position of leader? We will become a mere commander... The Yunxia Sect's hard work for so many years will be completely over."
Hearing what Huode said, Gu Qingfeng thought about it carefully and it seemed to make some sense. Maybe he had been in the heaven for a long time, but he had forgotten that the secular world is a place that pays attention to interests. Like the Yunxia Sect, which has been passed down for more than a thousand years.
The existence has a deep foundation and many side branches. Just as Huo De said, all the sects in Qingyang Realm have complicated interest relationships, which can be said to influence the whole body.
"Then tell me what to do."
"Although Jin De and Shuide have gained many connections over the years, most of us in the Yunxia Sect are still sensible and know that they are not good birds. If the Yunxia Sect falls into their hands, it will definitely suffer in the future.
However... we all lack a backbone, to be precise, we lack a candidate who is convincing and qualified to compete for the title of disciple."
"Then what……"
Gu Qingfeng drank a small drink and continued to listen.
"As long as they know that you, ancestor, have this qualification, and if I try to fool you again... everything will be easy to deal with."
"You mean you want me to show off and show off my strength? And this showman can not only let Shui De and Huo De find fault, but also convince other people in Yunxia Sect?"
Huode nodded excitedly and said, "Yes! That's what it means."
"When I was young, I sold a lot of souvenirs, but it's not easy to convince people that this sale is reasonable..."
"It's not difficult at all, and it's a piece of cake for you kid. To put it bluntly, just follow the rules and let no one find fault. In this way, I will give you the status of a handyman tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, you kid will go to the outer sect.
After the assessment, if you become a disciple of the outer sect, you will go and seize the chief position of the twelve outer sect houses. If you seize the chief position of the outer sect, you will go and seize the disciples of the nine inner sect halls... Along the way, I believe no one will be unconvinced."
"So troublesome?" Gu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows, a little unhappy, and said: "I am such a big man, and you want me to play with a bunch of brats?"
"Ancestor... this can only be done, there is no other way." Huo De stood up and walked over, poured another glass of wine for Gu Qingfeng, and said: "And don't underestimate those bastards, the bastards are really serious now.
,don’t you keep asking me
Where did the injury come from? I didn’t want to say it at first, for fear of making you laugh if I told you. To be honest, my Dantian was injured by a demon when the catastrophe occurred, but the Golden Pill was injured by a newly established member of our Yunxia Sect.
He was beaten by his direct disciple who passed the real body."
"Being beaten by a direct disciple who had just established his true body?" Gu Qingfeng looked at Huode up and down, a little disbelieving, and asked: "You are deceiving me, right? No matter how seriously injured your Dantian is, it is still a good thing."
The golden elixir also contains seven or eight hundred years of spiritual power. How can a little kid who has just established his true body hurt you? I said Huode, do you think I am a three-year-old child?"
