The Lord who use immortals as food

Pei Ye just came back to his senses, but he didn't expect to hear such a compliment right now. He smiled a little and said, "Is he better than you?"

"Hahahaha." Sui Zaihua raised his head and laughed, "Much better than me."

Feeling that it was disrespectful to lie down, Pei Ye managed to stand up and lean on the head of the bed, looking at the old man's new clothes: "Master Sui just went to hunt down the murderer?"

"Yes, after sending you back, we immediately went to Jinyu Zhai."

"Jin Yuzhai?"

"Master Wu guessed that it was the retreat from Huansi Tower, and there were buttons left there - in fact, it doesn't matter that I didn't stop Sima at that time. The end point of that formation would probably be near Jin Yuzhai."

"What's the result?"

"It was very effective," Sui Zaihua said, "Indeed, almost all of Shaolong's Huansi Lou Mizi sent their strength to Jin Yuzhai and Yincheng at that time. It can be said that they were all caught in one fell swoop."

Then he turned around, looked at the young man who was hesitant to speak, and said, "But there is no 'Shadow Face Sima'."

"."

Pei Ye looked at the old man, waiting for his next turn, but there was none, so he just stated it.

"We found no traces of him, nor did we find [Xiting Heart] from Sima." Sui Zaihua said, "We think he left with [Xiting Heart] - earlier than everyone imagined ”

"."

Sui Zaihua looked at the silent young man: "Is it difficult to accept?"

Pei Ye pursed her lips and looked at the eaves expressionlessly. After a long time, she lowered her head and smiled: "It's okay. I was very confused a few days ago, but now, we are back alive, which is the most important thing." Hatred cannot be more important than living people.”

He lowered his eyes again: "Anyway, the future is long."

"We will continue to find ways to chase him." Sui Zaihua looked at him, "You can also think back and find out where he went."

"Hmm." Pei Ye took a deep breath, remembered what the old man had just said, and changed the subject, "What Master Sui just said about [White Dragon Pill] and [Silver Jade Life Weaver], how much does that cost?"

"The yamen will pay you how much money you have, and you will be burdened with debt." Sui Zaihua smiled, "Young Master Pei should think about his bright future."

".What?"

"'What'?" Sui Zaihua repeated with a chuckle, turning to look at him, "Pei Shaoxia has never thought that if you survive, what will be waiting for you?"

"."

Sui Zaihua told him one by one: "Pei Ye, starting from the victory of Bowang Qiukui, you first killed Zhang He, Guo Huai and the four ghost actors in Huanshenglou in Xiangzhou with a single sword. You also ran into the entire Yi family with Li Mingqing. For this achievement, the Immortal Platform has just decided on the award that should be awarded; and then, it was precisely because you rushed back in time on the rainy night of Bowang that the 'Shadow Face Sima' left with regrets. ;After arriving at Kongtong, before Mr. Wu and I arrived, it was all supported by you alone. You solved the mystery of Zhang Meiqing and Ji Feng, revealed the appearance of the "Demon Sword", and gathered Tianji at the back cliff. , Jiang Yitong killed him, which directly implicated Xiao Tingshu's identity; after that, you fought with 'Shadow Face Sima' almost to the death several times with one sword and one person, causing him to be seriously injured and leaving the scene, which involved many other places. space."

He paused: "Not to mention the back."

"You broke through the [Mirror Dragon Sword Sea] to rescue Ming Qitian, which forced Ji Changyun to be exposed; and then in the Great Kongtong, with no one to rely on, you defeated the two Yeques, Sima and Yi Duanzhi, by yourself. It directly defeated Huanshenglou's plan." Sui Zaihua looked at him with a smile, "Such a major case that affected the entire Shaolong was ended under your hands. There are countless cases in Kongtong, Yunlang Mountain, Fuya, and Immortal Terrace. The honor is waiting for you - Pei Shaoxia, do you know what 'a great success' means?"

Pei Ye was speechless for a moment, but blood boiled in his chest at the same time. It took him a long time to say: "Master Sui, what you said is all due to you and me alone. In particular, I relied on Miss Ming's beheading." Xin Liu Li Cai."

"Of course, Huanshui Tower is far more terrifying than you think." The figure in black with gray braids looked at the rain curtain and said softly, "This is a sore that all of us have tried our best to dig out, but without you it will be inevitable No, isn't it?"

".I can't do it without you."

Sui Zaihua laughed again: "Of course, you can't do it without me."

The biggest achievement in overturning the behemoth created by Huansi Tower and Kongtong Couple indeed fell on the shoulders of this young man and the old man.

Pei Ye also smiled, became more relaxed, and put his arms on his legs: "Master Sui seems to be in a good mood."

Sui Zaihua was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly: "Twenty years of old hatred, once it is washed away with blood, it will naturally be smooth."

"How did Mr. Sui find out that there was something wrong with Ji Changyun?"

"I didn't investigate Ji Changyun, I investigated Bai Tianqu."

"Bai Tianqu?"

"Bai Tianqu already knew that Huansilou was going to take action against "Jian Tao", didn't he?"

Pei Ye nodded. He remembered this section. Bai Tianqu told Chi Jianzong, who controlled the mountain formation, about this. Chi Jianzong disagreed and was killed by them.

but.

"But this is the biggest evidence that Kongtong colluded with Huansilou." Sui Zaihua said, "If Baitianqu was in seclusion in the sword formation built by Huansilou, then when Ming Qitian was killed, why would people believe that Kongtong didn't know Where's the love?"

"."

"Bai Tianqu and Ji Changyun will never really break up." Sui Zaihua sighed softly, "Unlike Xiao Tingshu, Bai Tianqu is Ji Changyun's real apprentice who raised him since he was a child and loves his father and son."

Pei Ye was startled: "But they did compete for the position of head of Jianzang at that time."

"Of course, masters and disciples who are as close as father and son will also have irreconcilable differences." Sui Zaihua said softly, looking at the rain curtain and being silent for a moment, "making a big noise, refusing to give in, slamming the door and leaving, and then the two of them lay on the bed and went their separate ways. Discomfort is a common thing.”

He was quiet for a moment and suddenly looked at Pei Ye with a smile: "Have you ever had such an experience?"

Pei Ye was stunned. Of course his old man was also stubborn, but it was hard for him to make a scene and slam the door.

Sui Zaihua looked back and said with a smile: "No, that's also a kind of luck - but in many cases they still won't really 'break up'."

"Actually, if you look carefully, you will know that they are competing for the position of master to implement their own sword hidden path. They think each other is wrong, but they are not fighting for power." Sui Zaihua leaned on the bed, "The position of master is just The tool of their struggle, no one really takes it seriously.”

"So when they find that the other person is right, they can get back together immediately." Sui Zaihua looked at him quietly.

Pei Ye was horrified: "So."

"So, Bai Tianqu voluntarily died, and he unconditionally believed that Ji Changyun would implement their common ideals." Sui Zaihua turned back, "That's why Ji Changyun is so easy to lose control of his impulses - for ten years, he has not corrected his state of mind. He couldn't accept that his beloved disciple's death meant nothing."

"That's it"

Pei Ye was silent for a moment, lowered his head, and suddenly saw the old man's sword lying beside the bed, and came back to his senses: "By the way, Mr. Sui, is this sword too valuable?"

Sui Zaihua didn't look back: "Whether it's valuable or not, it's all left to you by no one."

"Master Wu, don't you have other junior friends? This one too"

Pei Ye still remembers the specialness of this magic weapon. It is almost the culmination of the gray-eyed old man's twenty-year crane inspection career. [String wire] is one of the main components of [Mirror Dragon Sword Sea], and the pattern of this formation The highest achievement is this sword. Nangong Zhai and Yang Yilou, two master craftsmen of the East China Sea Sword Furnace, were invited to work together to design and cast it. It is almost a representative of the fusion of the two swords.

"As far as I know, he has always been a loner. He has some friends, but really no juniors he knows well."

"." Pei Ye lowered his eyes.

"What's wrong, you don't think you're suitable to accept it?"

"I'm a little sad, Master Sui." Pei Ye took a breath and blamed himself in a low voice, "I didn't regard Master Wu as a close elder. I didn't expect that he would leave the sword to me."

Sui Zaihua was quiet for a while, looking at the rain curtain: "I have indeed never seen someone like Wu Hejian who can make his opponents nervous at all times. It must be very reassuring to be his companion, and it must be very distressing to be his enemy."

The old man smiled slightly: "I got to know him when I first arrived at the government office. We have been close friends for twenty years. By the end, although we were not acquaintances, we were still acquaintances."

"Master Wu said he trusted you. You have not betrayed his trust."

"What he didn't say is that he 'trusts you'." Sui Zaihua turned around and tapped the [Jade Tiger] scabbard, smiling, "If you take his sword, you will fulfill his last wish."

Pei Ye was stunned: "Does Master Wu have any last wishes?"

"Then I don't know. You were the one who saw him for the last time, weren't you?" Sui Zaihua looked away with a smile and looked under the eaves. The sky became brighter and the rain streaks were almost invisible.

The two of them were quiet for a moment, with only the sound of the rain falling.

"Pei Ye." Sui Zaihua suddenly spoke, his voice gentle and serious.

"Um?"

"I'm going back to Shaolong Mansion tomorrow."

"Huh? Are you in such a hurry?"

"I'm not originally from the Immortal Terrace." Sui Zaihua turned his eyes, "Do you know my official position?"

"..." Pei Ye didn't react for a moment, "You, you are... the supervisor of the Sword Xiu Academy."

"I hold the positions of the governor of the government and the young minister of the ceremony, and I am also the supervisor of the sword repair academy." Sui Zaihua looked at him seriously and showed an unprecedented directness to the young man, "——I am going to be promoted."

Pei Ye was stunned.

"Do you know what Mr. Litai does?"

"The person in charge of the school.?"

"More or less, he is in charge of Shaolong's civil and military training, examinations, many sacrificial rituals, etc., and due to the appointment of personnel, this is a position with real power, a very critical and honorable position." Sui Zaihua said, "In terms of rank,' "Shaoqing" is a deputy position, but Mr. Gongsun, who holds the "qing" position, is old, and I have been in charge of the ceremony for many years, and everyone knows it. "

"."

"The Supervisor of the Sword Xiuyuan is a position respected by the sect." Sui Zaihua continued with his back to the young man, "I have also done a good job in these years. I gathered the entire Shaolong Sword Sect to the city to join forces and draw swords together. , is something that Dao Qihui has not been able to do.”

"The Chief Shi of the government office is the place where you can really see your skills." The old man added, "As the old saying goes, the Chief Shi is the chief of staff, and it is almost the same now. This prince has great powers and responsibilities. , Fucheng’s own trivial things are all put together here, being pragmatic and not showing off my merits - I have done a pretty good job.”

"."

"It's different from having a governor in the state who has the pressure on his head. The post of governor is usually placed under the chief executive or the royal family as a vacant position, so the chief governor has come to an end in government affairs."

"Are you going to be the receptionist?"

Sui Zaihua smiled: "Master Gongsun is indeed about to become an official. It can be regarded as a title for what I have been doing, but it will be a matter of time."

"." Pei Ye was confused for a moment, he really didn't understand at all.

"The really key thing is that this time, Xianrentai and I have also established good trust." Sui Zaihua looked at him, "We just said that this is a case that Xianrentai can't handle without the two of us, right? ?”

Pei Ye was speechless, Sui Zaihua turned back, tapped the hilt of his sword and sighed softly: "A man was born as a supervisor of the Department of Civil Affairs, and has been in the government office steadily for twenty years. As a young minister, he has the most outstanding achievements in the ceremony. ; Living in a long history, all officials have to take care of everything from him; he knows the art of formations and weapons, and the only ones who have criticized him for being a civil servant until now are the ones who rely on him. Eliminated by the praise.”

"After doing so many years, I finally deserve a really high position."

"What kind of high position?" Pei Ye was at a loss. Based on his experience of being born in a small county for only two months, County Magistrate Chang and Bai Sibing were high officials. Even if Zhao Zhang was the governor, everyone respected him like Mr. Sui. Mr. Shaolong is simply someone to look up to.

Why isn't it considered a "real high position"?

Facing the young man's confused gaze, Sui Zaihua smiled slightly: "Inspecting the lower officials of the fifty states, taking charge of six stations, the top of the political affairs, the big demon behind the scenes in the eyes of the Jianghu people - the Governor of Shaolong."

"."

"What, are you scared?"

"Without Mr. Sui, what is a 'commander'?"

"Hahahahahahahahaha, just think of it as simple. If Shaolong Dao does not set up military affairs, then except for military affairs, everything else will be decided by this position." Sui Zaihua laughed, "In short, it is from doing things to changing Became the one who made the decision.”

Pei Ye was in awe as he seemed to understand but not understand. He remembered Wudong telling him that the old man in front of him also came from a poor family and had no one to rely on in the officialdom. He only relied on his later skills and friendships to get up step by step. Now he finally Pei Ye was really happy to have the opportunity to turn a carp into a dragon: "Congratulations, Lord Sui!"

However, Sui Zaihua just looked at him with a smile: "I'm not just here to say goodbye to you."

".Um?"

"The meeting of Shaolong Sword Sect will be held in four days. I am telling you this because I want you to go to Shaolong Mansion within three days."

"ah?"

"What's so surprising? We won the Huansi Building together, right?" Sui Zaihua smiled, "Do you remember what we talked about in Bowangzhou Yamen? -' You are swearing now, but it's just because you haven't really Get them.'"

".'They'?" Pei Ye didn't react for a moment.

"Future, fame, power, status, gold and silver, sword, respect, envy." Sui Zaihua said in a leisurely voice, "Now, you can really get it legitimately."

"Before many rewards are given, I have to make Shaolong recognize you first," Sui Zaihua smiled slightly, "The future number one swordsman, the young goose Yanjian who destroyed the Huanshu Tower, the white crane under the new governor's wing - Pei Ye Pei Shaoxia."
