Chapter 680 Negotiation Skills

It came so fast. Xu Qi'an frowned, he hadn't completely convinced the two leaders Luan Yu and Ba Ji, he planned to persuade these two leaders first, and then let them help lobby the Corpse Gu Department together, and use the Gu clan's momentum to overwhelm others .

Unexpectedly, You Shi came so quickly, so he directly manipulated the bird corpse to come.

The bird corpse hovered in the sky for a while, seeing that the situation below was stable and several leaders of the same clan were safe and sound, it then glided and landed, but did not approach, and looked at Grandma Tiangu and others from a distance. .

"You are captured."

The bird corpse vibrated the air, spit out human words, the voice was hoarse and deep, it was Youshi.

After the Zi Gu that boarded on the walking corpse was killed, he immediately manipulated the bird corpse to investigate the situation.

The situation in front of him made him slightly relieved.

The greatest advantage of a corpse gu master is that he will always be safe. As long as his hiding place is not found, no matter how many puppets die, the main body will be safe and sound.

Xu Qi'an looked at him, and the giant bird controlled by Youshi looked back calmly.

"We just reached a settlement." Xu Qi'an said.

Youshi ignored him, and turned to look at Grandma Heavenly Gu with empty and dead eyes, who told Youshi exactly what he had said to the leaders.

The giant bird turned its head and looked at Luan Yu and the others. After receiving an affirmative answer, it was silent for a while:

"I have no reason to object, if you want to form an alliance with Dafeng, that is your business.

"But the alliance between the Corpse Gu Department and Yunzhou is a matter for the Corpse Gu Department, and we will not interfere with each other."

Luan Yu and the others frowned, the Gu clan has always attacked and retreated together, there is no reason for soldiers to meet each other on the battlefield.

Xu Qi'an pointed at the walking corpse puppet beside him, and said calmly:

"I don't need you to send troops. As long as you don't form an alliance with Yunzhou, this puppet will be returned to you. A puppet with a third-grade physique should have enough bargaining chips."

You Shi didn't even look at the puppet, and sneered:

"You have underestimated my Corpse Gu Department too much. We still have a puppet of the same level."

He is a third-rank poison Gu master, limited by his realm, he can only control one walking corpse of the same realm at a time, plus a few fourth-rank corpses.

If not, the one who came just now was not the "Six Star God", but another third-rank one.

The Corpse Gu Department, which is famous for raising corpses and refining corpses, has a history of thousands of years, how could it be possible that there is only one walking corpse in the Transcendent Realm. The third-rank walking corpse left in the clan was not a warrior, but a corpse left by a strong man from the Yao clan.

Sure enough, with the hatred of Dafeng from the Corpse Gu Department, it was too difficult for him to let go of his previous suspicions. Xu Qi'an was already mentally prepared for this.

Longtu frowned, and said in a deep voice:

"Wei Yuan is already dead, and your revenge for killing your father has long been settled. You Shi, don't let the Gu Department and the Gu Clan be divorced because of your own obsession."

"The revenge of killing the father, don't forget it as soon as you say it, and end it as soon as you say it." Youshi snorted coldly, and his empty and dead eyes swept across the crowd:

"It is you who are alienated from the Gu clan, Luan Yu, have you forgotten that you were captured by the Dafeng army and filled into the clansmen of the Jiaofang Division? Postscript, all five thousand clansmen were murdered, and your Poison Gu clan is the smallest clan so far. .

"You want to form an alliance with Dafeng, have you ever thought that the tribe will agree? There is also the power Gu, the dark Gu, the heart Gu, and the sky Gu. Many of your tribe died in the battle of Shanhaiguan back then. Who is fighting against the will of the Gu tribe?"

Luan Yu and Ba Ji suddenly showed embarrassment, one of them was greedy for Xu Qi'an's body, the other was greedy for the best poisonous weeds and fruits, and they were in a state of struggle and hesitation.

You Shi's words pierced their hearts like a knife, making them worry and resist.

Compared to the major forces, the population of the Gu clan is pitifully small, but all the people of the Gu clan are warriors, and every member of the clan practices Gu skills, and the fighting power of the race is outrageously strong.

This meant that the chiefs could not, like the emperors of the Central Plains, take and kill ordinary people and take whatever they wanted.

The clansmen are not lambs, if the leader betrays his relatives, the clansman will seek the help of several other tribes to overthrow the leader. Or simply escape from southern Xinjiang and live elsewhere.

"Sealing the Gu God is also the top priority of the Gu Clan, and it is better than personal grievances."

Heart Gu Master Chunyan said calmly.

One sentence interrupted Youshi's aggressive momentum and made him fall silent for a while.

This girl is wise and intelligent, she is worthy of being a Heart Gu master. Xu Qi'an glanced at her and nodded slightly.

Yushi paused, and said:

"Okay, putting aside personal grievances, let's just talk about sealing the Gu God. An alliance with Yunzhou can also seal the Gu God. And everyone knows the situation of Dafeng, so why put the bet on the obviously weaker side.

"Moreover, if you choose to form an alliance with Yunzhou, the tribe will only cheer, will only be excited, and will only sharpen their swords. But if you choose to form an alliance with Dafeng, you will face a situation where you will be alienated from your tribe."

Except for Longtu from the Power Gu Department, several leaders frowned and remained silent.

Their vacillation and hesitation were almost written on their faces. Youshi's words not only expressed the position of the Gu clan's hatred of Dafeng, but also pointed out the disadvantageous situation that might be faced by helping Dafeng.

To be honest, even if you put aside the hatred and simply weighed the pros and cons, if the situation in Dafeng is really as bad as Ge Wenxuan said, the Yunzhou Lord with the help of Buddhism is more likely to overthrow the Dafeng court.

If coupled with the help of our own side, it is almost a certainty.

Seeing this, Long Tu had to remind them:

"Don't forget your own situation. If Xu Qi'an hadn't kept his hand, you would have died long ago."

You Shi glanced at Xu Qi'an, sneered and said:

"Oh, I forgot, you are his captives now, you can only accept but not refuse."

Several leaders glanced at Xu Qi'an and frowned.

The brains of the Power Gu Department are really not enough, Xu Qi'an sighed inwardly.

He was merciful and was willing to sit down and talk with the leaders, not really repaying grievances with virtue, but hoping that they would cancel their alliance with the Yunzhou rebels, so this "kindness" was a stepping stone.

It was just a bargaining chip for the leaders of the Gu tribe to sit down and negotiate.

In the final outcome, he must still provide corresponding benefits. The Gu clan promised not to form an alliance with Yunzhou, or send troops to aid Dafeng. It's not because Xu Qi'an didn't kill them.

If it is extortion, you can use the reason of "your life is in my hands".

But if you want the Gu clan to form an alliance with Dafeng sincerely, this reason cannot be mentioned, this kind of threat is only applicable to one vote and leave. If you use it on your allies, they might turn around and secretly form an alliance with Yunzhou, stabbing you in the back.

Youshi glanced at Longtu, his empty eyes were devoid of emotion, but his face must be full of disdain and ridicule.

With simple guidance, all the stupid Ligu can be hooked.

Xu Qi'an's mind turned quickly, and he thought about many possibilities in an instant, including killing trouble in the cradle.

In their current state, I can't kill the dark Gu, I can escape too much, and the three leaders of the Heart Gu, Poison Gu, Emotional Gu can still be killed, but in this way, the Power Gu Department will have to deal with me endlessly. , I had no choice but to start a killing ring, which completely pushed the Gu family to the opposite side. In addition, the Heavenly Gu mother-in-law never interrupted, she was too calm.

Does she trust my character so much? She's not afraid of driving me to a corner, really killing me? We just met, and she didn't know me well, but she was too calm.

Unless she has a hole card, so I'm not afraid of turning the table.

Xu Qi'an narrowed his eyes, suddenly smiled and said:

"Everyone may not know that apart from the Bodhisattva Gala Tree and a small number of monks and soldiers, Buddhism is unable to intervene in the war in the Central Plains, because the Southern Demons are about to revolt. If you don't believe me, the Hundred Thousand Mountains are also in the Southern Border, not far from the territory of the Gu Clan. You can Send someone to investigate."

The leaders were slightly taken aback, and You Shi turned the bird's head violently, staring at him with dead, empty eyes.

Chunyan nodded lightly: "We will send someone to investigate this matter."

If this is true, then the situation in the Central Plains is indeed not as certain as Ge Wenxuan said. Even if an alliance with Dabong is not considered, they have to reassess the risk of attacking Dabong.

Xu Qi'an continued:

"A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although Yunzhou has strong soldiers and horses, Dafeng is indeed troubled by internal and external troubles. But this does not mean that Dafeng will be defeated. Otherwise, why would Yunzhou send people to lobby the Gu clan?"

Seeing that the leaders were thinking, Xu Qi'an struck while the iron was hot:

"Under such circumstances, the entry of the Gu clan is the key to turning the tide of the battle. The Gu clan has formed an alliance with Dafeng, and victory is expected. Therefore, there is no such thing as weakness that the leader Youshi said.

"What Yunzhou can give, I can also give it. As for the popular support of the Gu clan, my promise just now is still valid, and I will give a certain amount of top-quality poisonous herbs to the Poison Gu Department. I will try my best to meet the requirements of the leader Luanyu." satisfy."

Yushi sneered and said:

"That's it? With these things, trying to appease the Gu clan's hatred towards Dafeng is just a dream."

Ba Ji and Luan Yu were moved, but they chose to remain silent, because the fact is what You Shi said, the top-quality poisonous weeds and poisonous fruits are not just needed, and for Ba Ji, who doesn't have much hatred for Da Feng, they must readily agree.

But for the clansmen of the Poison Gu Department, this is not enough to quell the hatred of killing half of the clansmen.

As for Luanyu, it's just selfish desires. She has a top-quality man to sleep with and practice love Gu, what about the sisters in the clan? Even if Xu Qi'an manages tens of thousands of chickens every day so that the sisters can have food and clothing, what does it matter to the men in the clan?

"Forget it, I understand the difficulties of the few."

When Xu Qi'an saw it, he sighed:

"I will not insist on sending troops. I just hope that the leaders can choose neutrality and give up the alliance with Yunzhou. What I promised just now will remain unchanged."

Luan Yu and Ba Ji were stunned, they looked at each other, and almost said in unison:

"good!"

If they just choose neutrality and don't send troops to Dafeng, then it will be easy to handle. They can use reasons such as the situation is unclear and they don't want the tribe to die to appease the tribe.

This not only occupies the righteousness, but also brings rich rewards (poison Gu) to the clansmen.

Xu Qi'an laughed, from the very beginning, he didn't expect the Gu clan to send troops to help Dafeng, the conflict between the two sides was so deep that Grandma Heavenly Gu came to remind him in person.

With Yunzhou and Dafeng both able to meet the needs of the Gu clan, the possibility of letting the Gu clan settle their suspicions is too low, too low.

The real plan made by Xu Qi'an is to subdue them first, and then find a way to make the Gu people give up the alliance with Yunzhou.

The so-called military assistance is just a negotiating technique. First, the price is raised desperately, and then it falls off a cliff, creating a sense of dissatisfaction in the hearts of "we have earned blood" and "this is acceptable".

It's not over yet, getting the Gu clan to cancel their alliance is only the first step.

In the next step, Xu Qi'an still wants them to send troops, but he will not let the seven tribes of the Gu tribe come out in full force. He will use the food as a bargaining chip to invite the masters of the Gu tribe to join the battle.

Using various materials and commodities as bargaining chips, invite the two tribes of Dark Gu and Heart Gu to fight. These two tribes have less hatred for Dafeng, so it is not difficult to hire them to fight with a heavy promise.

There is no shortage of food in southern Xinjiang, but there is a shortage of porcelain, tea, silk, books and other supplies.

As long as enough is given, they will always say yes.

However, Xu Qi'an still underestimated Youshi's obsession with killing his father.

Youshi has become an insurmountable obstacle in order to successfully complete the plan.

If you can't appease him, with the Gu clan's custom of connecting branches with one another, it's hard for the other six parts to really stand idly by.

Youshi sneered and said:

"How you decide is up to you. My Corpse Gu Department decides to form an alliance with Yunzhou, and no one can stop it. I want to see how many people from the Love Gu Department and Poison Gu Department will follow me."

Ba Ji and Luan Yu's expressions changed.

The bird turned its head and looked at Xu Qi'an: "You might as well try to kill me, kill me, and the problem will be solved."

"It's up to you how Chief Youshi decides."

Xu Qi'an didn't panic at all, and said lightly:

"However, I also have a gift for the Corpse Gu Department, why don't you take a look at my chips first?"

If it's heart voodoo and secret voodoo, Xu Qi'an really can't think of anything that can satisfy the other party. Although the little mare is cute and attractive, it is a mare, and Chun Yan is also a woman.

Likes are wrong.

The need of dark Gu is a hidden corner, this thing does not need to be given by others.

But the Corpse Gu Department, as the host of Qijue Gu, Xu Qi'an is too aware of their needs.

You Shi seemed to have heard the big joke, with a mocking and disdainful tone:

"No matter what chips you have, I won't"

At this time, he saw Xu Qi'an take out a small jade mirror and dumped the mirror surface.

"Bang!"

A coffin fell out, and the coffin board slid out amidst the shock.

Lina held her nose and backed away again and again, just sniffing the breath from the coffin, she felt a little dizzy.

Longtu quickly covered Xu Lingyin's face with his big palm-like hand, and threw her far away.

In the coffin, a dilapidated ancient corpse was exposed to everyone's eyes.

It looks like a mummy that has been sleeping for endless years, and has suffered extremely serious damage. The breastbone and ribs are broken, and the head is also mutilated.

But Youshi's gaze fell on the ancient corpse, and he couldn't take it away.
