Chapter 110 Bargaining
The man who was busy digging the grave paused, then turned his head, there was no doubt that it was really Gu Baitang.
"Hush." Gu Baitang waved to him, then turned his head and continued to work.
Jiang Suxing walked over in amazement, and saw that the grave had been almost dug up, exposing the coffin lid.
"Baitang, what are you doing?" Jiang Suxing asked.
Gu Baitang ignored him, threw away the long sword that was digging the soil, bent down, threw away the soil, and after a lot of busy work, he quickly pushed open the coffin lid.
After a puff of smoke, a finely wrapped mummy was revealed inside.
Gu Baitang lifted his chin to the shocked Jiang Suxing, "See if you can summon this soul out, and ask who it is."
"You came here to dig someone's grave and lift up his coffin, so you don't know who this is?!" Jiang Suxing asked with wide-eyed eyes.
"I really don't know who this person is, but I became enmity with that coral because I snatched this mummy back then." Gu Baitang said, "I think you are also very curious about that Dongyang real person. His disciples, breaking through from here, can always find clues."
The amount of information was a bit large, Jiang Suxing reacted for a moment, and probably understood what was going on.
"But...why did you snatch this mummy?" Jiang Suxing asked.
Gu Baitang paused, "At that time, I was only ordered by the Law Enforcement Palace to come to Qianzhu Peak to do business. I don't know the specific reason."
"You were ordered to bury this mummy here?"
Jiang Suxing lowered his head to carefully look at the cloth wrapped around the mummy. The cloth was layered on top of each other, and it seemed that there were spells written on it.
"No, my order is to destroy this mummy."
Gu Baitang said, "But there seems to be a seal on it. At that time, the situation was urgent, and I was hunted down by Coral. In a hurry, I hid it first. Later, I thought of some ways, but I couldn't destroy it. I was only 15 at the time. This is the first time I have completed a secret mission, so I hid this mummy here for fear of being blamed by the higher-ups for not performing well."
Jiang Suxing nodded in surprise, thinking that this skeleton is very important to Shanhu, she should also know that Gu Baitang's task at that time was to destroy the skeleton, and she also thought that Gu Baitang did this, so she held such a grudge against Gu Baitang.
That being the case, Jiang Suxing didn't ask any more questions.
"It looks like it was sealed with an ancient sealing technique. Since you can't destroy it, I certainly can't recall it." Jiang Suxing studied it a bit, and said: "We need to find a way to remove the seal on it first. It takes some work."
And now that Xicheng is suffering, obviously the two of them don't have the time to waste on such an unknown mummy.
Gu Baitang pondered for a moment, and said: "Then let's bury it. I just saw the coral today and wanted to come over to make sure it's still there."
So the two of them worked together to cover the coffin again and put the loess on it.After all this, I couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.Sitting on the ground and resting, Jiang Suxing felt that the place was too cloudy and was very unhappy.Gu Baitang led him away first.
As soon as he walked out of the woods, Jiang Suxing suddenly grabbed Gu Baitang.
"What's wrong?" Gu Baitang looked back at him.
There was an unbelievable light in Jiang Suxing's eyes: "You just said that you were 15 years old when you performed this mission...?!"
Gu Baitang was surprised and didn't know how to answer him.
At this time, Jiang Suxing suddenly raised his hand and tore off the forehead wipe from Gu Baitang's forehead.Sure enough, I saw that the diamond-shaped seal had completely turned black!
"Brother Baitang!..." Jiang Suxing's eyes widened in disbelief, "You...you remember the past?"
Gu Baitang froze for a moment, he thought that Jiang Suxing probably thought that Yusuke's sealing technique had failed, not anything else.
"Ah."
Gu Baitang hummed lightly, "I remember the past. But don't worry, I can control the Demon King's Seed now, and it won't hurt me anymore."
"Is what you said true?"
Jiang Suxing's hands trembled slightly: "You... no wonder you... called me Xiaoxing."
Gu Baitang said: "Yes, I remember that your name is Xiaoxing, and I always remember it. Before that, Yuju taught me to practice "The Way of the Heart", and gradually I was able to control the seed of the devil. So...so the seal disappeared. "
No, only Gu Baitang himself understood that was not the case.The seal of Onjuku has not disappeared, and it is still suppressing the demon king's seed.The reason why Gu Baitang can remember all this is because he has experienced the reversal of time and came back from the dead.
But he couldn't tell Jiang Suxing all this.
Jiang Suxing's eyes turned red, "I thought you had forgotten me before."
Gu Baitang smiled, "Yeah, I forgot about you and don't remember anything, but I will still fall in love with you. It's really not easy."
How could it be so easy, I traveled through time and space, experienced life and death, and found you.
Jiang Suxing couldn't help having a sore nose, he lowered his head and smiled, and held Gu Baitang's hand tightly: "Brother Baitang, you must never forget me again."
Between his brows, there was infinite sadness.It made Gu Baitang feel unbearable pain in his heart.
"Even if I forget you, I will still love you. What are you afraid of?" Gu Baitang asked in a low voice.
Jiang Suxing raised his head and looked at Gu Baitang for a moment, just as he was about to say something, a tear fell from the corner of his eye.He lowered his head again in embarrassment, and said with a smile, "Your charm is the greatest. I'm afraid that you will be snatched away."
Gu Baitang smiled dotingly, raised his hand to gently wipe away the tears from Jiang Suxing's face, and said in a low voice, "You are the head teacher of Xicheng, so you can't cry so much."
Jiang Suxing pushed him, Gu Baitang grabbed his hand, and both looked at each other and smiled.After some intimacy, they walked out of the woods and returned to the central canyon of Luoxia Peak.
The sky gradually darkened, and the arrangements of the various palaces were almost the same.But he still couldn't wait for Dongyang Zhenren and Shanhu to appear, Jiang Suxing couldn't help feeling a little worried.At this moment, Elder Huo came to him and said that he wanted to invite the twelve peak masters to gather at Luoxia Peak. First, he came to express his gratitude, and second, he also needed to discuss with the peak masters about the arrangements for the [-] disciples.
It was rare for Elder Huo to have such thoughts, so Jiang Suxing naturally readily agreed and was willing to invite these peak masters in person.Maybe the grievances with the monks in Nancheng can be opened from here, which might be a great thing.
At first, the elders felt that it would be a loss of status to ask the head teacher to invite them personally, Jiang Suxing said to himself: "After all, I haven't held the conferment ceremony, so I can't be regarded as the real head teacher. Besides, I'm young, so it's really hard to invite all the peak masters." It should be."
He insisted again and again, and the elders had no choice but to go with him.
So that night, Jiang Suxing went to the remaining eleven peaks one by one.
These eleven peak masters have different personalities, some are aloof, some are gentle, and some are full of smiles.Their attitude towards Jiang Suxing was unanimously curious.Those scrutinizing eyes really wanted to see Jiang Suxing thoroughly.Of course, in the end these peak masters all agreed to come to get together, and they didn't make things difficult for Jiang.At first, Jiang Suxing thought it was because the monks in Nancheng also had the idea of repairing with Xicheng, but after talking smoothly all the way, Jiang Suxing felt that it was surprisingly smooth.
When he arrived at the last peak master, Jiang Suxing couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Dare to ask the peak master, Master Xuegou... where is he now?"
The peak master looked at him with a little surprise: "Xuegou?"
It was only now that Jiang Suxing realized that he had actually mentioned Dongyang Master's name, which was a very disrespectful act.Immediately said: "Oh, I mean, real Dongyang."
"I really don't know the whereabouts of Master Dongyang." This peak master also called himself this seat in front of Jiang Suxing, which shows that he really doesn't think highly of Jiang Suxing's status as the head teacher. "He just asked me to cooperate with you, and then left."
"What about the coral girl?" Jiang Suxing asked again.
The peak master shook his head, "I never saw it."
Jiang Suxing was a little puzzled, so he politely said goodbye: "Since that's the case, Suxing won't bother you anymore. I also ask the peak master to come to the central valley of Luoxia Peak on time to meet up and say goodbye."
He turned around to leave, but was stopped by the peak owner: "Wait a minute."
Jiang Suxing turned around, and saw that the other party was also puzzled and asked: "Did you mention Xuegou just now?"
Jiang Suxing paused for a moment, thought about it, and finally nodded.
"Where did you hear that name?" asked the other party.
Jiang Suxing looked hesitant again and again, and finally said: "I heard that Dongyang real person mentioned it once, and thought it was his name, I guess I made a mistake."
"Dongyang real person mentioned it to you?" The peak master suddenly nodded again, "Yes, if you know this name, he must have told you. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for you to know this name."
"Is there something wrong with the name Xuegou?" Jiang Suxing asked tentatively when he saw that the peak master seemed a little uneasy.
Originally, he didn't expect the other party to answer, but sure enough, the other party gave him a sharp look.
"If you want to know what this name means, you can go to the records of the characters in your West City. Hey, but you probably won't be able to find it now, no matter if it's Shuxiang Pavilion or Gujianshu Pavilion, it's all in this Tianhe Soaked in the water." The other party said with a sneer.
Seeing his unkind attitude, Jiang Suxing didn't want to ask any more questions, so he smiled, took his leave and left.He did not return to Luoxia Peak, but went straight to Shoujiange.It is now the residence of the disciples of Jade Cauldron Palace.
"Teacher." Several disciples saw him from afar and stood in front of him waiting for him.
Jiang Suxing rushed forward, and hurriedly asked: "Can those materials in Shuxiang Pavilion be rescued?"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. At that time, everyone was concerned about evacuating and fleeing for their lives. How could they remember those materials.Presumably this flood has engulfed the entire West City, and those precious ancient books and materials have also been lost.
Thinking of this, everyone can't help but feel a little down.
Li Mingyang suddenly said: "If the flood in the city can be drained within seven days, maybe those materials can still be preserved."
"That's right! All the valuable classics and important materials in the West City are written on special paper, silk cloth, and bamboo slips, which are waterproof!"
"How did I forget this!"
Only then did everyone look happy, and Jiang Suxing nodded, feeling relieved, but still full of doubts.
At midnight that night, the masters of Eleventh Peak came to the central canyon of Luoxia Peak one after another. Although some of them arrived almost two hours late, they were willing to come anyway.Now that the west city is in trouble, the elders have to hold back their anger and let these people put on airs.During the discussion process, there were constant arguments, and the master of the Eleventh Peak requested that he would not take care of this matter unless he built twelve palaces for them in the west city.
"Twelve palaces? Does that mean you, the masters of the twelve peaks, are going to live in the city?" asked the elder of the Siwu Yuan.After all, the construction of a palace should fall on the head of the Secretary of State Affairs, so he was naturally unwilling in every possible way.
"Hehe, we live well in Tianzhu Peak, why do we need to go back there. It's just to build a palace, and there is a place to stay when we go down the mountain occasionally."
"That's right, I have several immortal friends. They heard that I was practicing in the west city, and they came to visit me. But I can only welcome them to these deserted mountain peaks. It's really not good. With the palace, we will be fine in the future." Invite fairy friends."
"Besides, you burned the Fuyunyuan of Master Dongyang, and it's not too much to pay him a palace, right?"
"The credit this time cannot be attributed to Master Dongyang alone. Although he was the first to lower the Tongtian Bridge, if eleven of us don't let it go, I'm afraid that half of the fifty thousand disciples in your city won't survive."
After some rhetoric, in short, it is to build a palace.The elders naturally couldn't agree, and the two parties started to quarrel passionately.
Jiang Suxing couldn't decide this kind of thing, the canyon was full of tense atmosphere, he was really powerless and didn't want to mediate.So he simply walked out of the canyon, planning to go outside for some air.
He didn't want to run into that snow suit head-on when he came outside.
"A real person?!"
Jiang Suxing was overjoyed, and hurried up: "You have appeared, I've been looking for you everywhere!"
"The passage is also opened, what are you looking for me for?" He rushed up with such joy, as if he had a great impact on Xuegou.The other party hastily moved aside, not looking directly at Jiang Suxing.
Jiang Suxing naturally noticed that he dodged like this.Standing on the spot for a moment, he suddenly remembered something, reached out his hand and took out a pair of scrolls from his sleeve.
"Fuyunyuan was burned by the Shangyang real fire accidentally released by the coral girl. Su Xing was incompetent, so he could only rescue such a painting." Jiang Suxing offered the painting with both hands, and at the same time raised his eyes to observe Xuegou's expression.
Although Xuegou was wearing a mask all over his face, he couldn't see any expression at all.
Xuegou reached for the painting and slowly unfolded it.The characters in the painting gradually appeared under the moonlight.Xuegou looked at the people in the painting with a very focused look.
"Dare to ask the real person, who is the person in this painting...?" Jiang Suxing asked cautiously.
"Jiang Taiping." Xuegou said, and at this moment, Jiang Suxing saw flames emanating from the bottom of the painting.
"Ah! Fire! Fire!" Jiang Suxing hurried to put out the fire, but Xuegou reached out to block him and threw the painting into the air.
The scroll fell slowly, completely turned into ashes, and landed on the ground.
