Chapter 1624 Laughing and crying
The melodious bell echoed over Taichu and spread throughout every corner of Taichu Valley.
A series of spiritual talisman letters flew to the distance of Taichu, all of which were letters summoning Taichu's disciples who were practicing and wandering outside. As Zhang Kuang placed Taichu's immortal staff, Taichu also officially entered the countdown to leave. For a moment, Taichu's huge "machine" began to move.
In the thatched hut of Huanglong Peak in Taichu, Zhang Kuang sat in the center of the head seat. Qin Haoxuan and Xu Yu, two deputy heads, sat on both sides of him. Then Qin Yilan, the guardian of Taichu, sat in a lower position with a cold face. Xiaojin, a mountain-stopping beast, sat opposite Qin Yilan.
As the elder, Lao Xia Yunzi closed his eyes beside Qin Yilan. The hall masters and elders attended the meeting one by one. The most eye-catching one was the depressed Tianshen Clam, and there were several pieces of stone god who had cracks on his body.
Xiao Jin stole the unlucky look at Xiao Shitou and kept laughing in his heart. The stone did not escape the settlement of Miss Xu's score in the end. The extremely hard stone actually cracked a little, and the mistress took action hard.
Xiao Shitou was also very depressed. The reason why his sister-in-law hit him was that he suspected that his sister-in-law was petty, so he gave himself a few punches. In order to relieve his sister-in-law, he had to pretend that the stone had cracked... He was a rare special stone, how could it be so easy to crack? But in order to relieve his sister-in-law, he should be cowardly, but his reputation as an indestructible person... This time it was ruined.
"Are you all here?" Zhang Kuang scanned everyone present and looked at many people outside the thatched hut. After all, the hall of Taichu is too small. There are too many powerful people in Taichu now, so this thatched hut cannot be installed.
If it is a bit waste to expand the thatched hut now, and the others in Taichu are anxious to leave the place, no one cares whether they are staying in the thatched hut or sitting on the grass outside.
"It's all here." Qin Yilan stood up and responded.
After Zhang Kuang coughed, he turned his gaze to Xu Yu. The one who really spoke in Taichu over the years was Deputy Master Xu who was sitting here. As the master, he was more accustomed to talking to others with swords.
"Call everyone, I believe everyone knows why."
As soon as Xu Yu said, most of the people present showed excited smiles on their faces, including Lao Xia Yunzi, who had been closing his eyes and resting, opened his eyes.
As an old man in Taichu, Lao Xia Yunzi wants to return to Taichu earlier than others. He is too eager for Taichu.
Now Xia Yunzi has really entered the twilight years. Returning to his roots is one of his greatest wishes in his life. He wants to die on the original Taichu land.
"Several things." Xu Yu said very skillfully: "First, is it that we will stay here after we leave? Will we stay as a Taichu Villa?"
Everyone fell into deep thought. It would be impossible to say that there was no nostalgia or emotion in this place for a hundred years. However, according to Deputy Chief Qin, this place is a Yaochi that has lost the Creator. Although I don’t know how long it will take, this Yaochi will eventually be destroyed.
What everyone in Taichu pursues is that the incense of Taichu will last forever for thousands of years. If this villa cannot do this...
Moreover, Taichu Villa is an indescribable pain for Taichu!
The last time the head of Taichu Villa was Murong Chao! Taichu’s biggest traitor! The existence that almost caused Taichu to be destroyed! Taichu Villa... was somewhat unlucky for Taichu.
Originally, no one in Taichu knew about the fact that Murong Chao was a traitor. Until Qin Haoxuan came back and had a spiritual exchange with Zhang Kuang, the furious Zhang Kuang decided to make the matter public after several days of calm.
Then, destroying Puguang and killing Murong Chao became the target of all Taichu people.
"Stay it." Xiao Jin was the first to speak: "Isn't this Taichu here? As for the owner of the other courtyard, everyone is Murong Chao's."
The saying here is not Taichu that shocked many people who were silent and thinking, yes! Isn’t this here Taichu?
Zhang Kuang looked at the expressions of everyone and understood everyone's thoughts, saying, "In the future, this place will be Taichu Villa. After going out to fight Puguang, you can recommend or recommend yourself to select the head of Taichu Villa."
"Since the first thing is settled, the second thing is simple." Xu Yu said again: "That is, since this place is left as a separate courtyard, there is naturally no need to take everything away."
Everyone nodded repeatedly. This place was also a blessed land of Taichu. So the infrastructure here should be kept as much as possible, and only a small part of the combat construction was taken away to destroy Puguang.
After all, as a basic defense ability that the other courtyard should have, it still needs to be.
"This third topic..." Xu Yu looked at the people around him and found that many of the people present looked bad.
Those who can sit here for meetings are not fools. Naturally, they know very well that since a villa is set up here, there are naturally some people who want to temporarily guard the house to ensure the normal operation of Taichu in this Yaochi.
For example, when recruiting disciples every year, they have to be trained. When Taichu went out to fight in Puguang Pavilion, there would be no fault in Taichu's training.
Is it a place to visit? I missed the attack on Puguang? So what happened to this century of time?
Zhang Kuang was also silent. If he had changed his usual days, he would have dared to open his mouth and make arbitrary decision on anything, and Taichu would never give up the orders he had to execute.
But in this matter, Zhang Kuang knew that although he was the head of the tutor, he did not have much position to let someone stay. Others went to the Puguang Pavilion outside to settle the accounts.
Everyone focused their attention on Zhang Kuang. Zhang Kuang really wanted to let Lao Xia Yunzi stay. After all, the old man is relatively old and has injuries on his body. The most important thing is that the old man's cultivation is limited compared to the younger generation.
Zhang Kuang turned his gaze to Qin Haoxuan, and he coughed and said, "I wonder what Deputy Chief Qin has?"
Qin Haoxuan was suddenly named, and he had already begun to greet Zhang Kuang's ancestors for the eighteen generations. He didn't see you and think of me on weekdays. You remember me very clearly about such offending things!
"This... I'll follow the commander's orders." Qin Haoxuan kicked the ball back. He was not afraid that the head would ask him to stay in the other courtyard. As one of the highest combat powers of Taichu, it's no reason to hide it in the other courtyard. Besides, if it really happens, he just just catches a deacon from the destruction team to serve him.
Zhang Kuang found that Qin Haoxuan was a little unauthorized. As the head teacher, he gave him a chance to speak, he actually treated him like this.
"Last time, I remember Deputy Master Qin told me that he hoped that his ancestors would stay to visit the house?" Zhang Kuang's eyes turned to Lao Xia Yunzi: "It is said that you are not in good health and Puguang Pavilion is a supreme sect. I'm afraid that many people will be in trouble in this battle, so..."
Old Xia Yunzi didn't say anything. He just looked at Zhang Kuang silently, unable to say even Zhang Kuang's last words. He turned his gaze to Qin Haoxuan, and Qin Haoxuan simply lowered his head.
Qin Haoxuan did have this idea. As one of the few old men in Taichu, he really didn't want any surprises to these old men. Although Taichu could not afford to lose, these old men were even more unaffordable. If they had an accident, how could they explain to the ancestors of Taichu who had died in battle?
"Do you just want me to stay at home?" Old Xia Yunzi spoke slowly, with a little sadness in his tone: "I know you are for my own good, but... do you want me to enter the coffin with regrets? You want me to see the ancestors of the sect after I die, and tell them that when I was destroying Puguang, I didn't go, I hid in a villa to rest. I didn't avenge you, I am so heartless?"
Many people in the room wanted Lao Xia Yunzi to stay. At this time, they all lowered their heads and dared not meet the old man's eyes.
"I just want to see and see this battle with my own eyes." Old Xia Yunzi said with grief: "I have not had many days, and I still want to do something for Taichu. What is our Taichu tradition? Have you forgotten? If there is danger, the older generation must stand in front! Under the sect, the elders who were in seclusion exchanged their lives for us to successfully pass the tribulation. In the battle of extermination, even the Huanglong Master of the Church, we took care of it! Why... Why do we have to let me guard the family when we arrive here? What family should I guard! My home is not here at all! My Taichu is outside! There are countless relatives in my Taichu sleeping! You let me guard here? What do you think?"
Xu Yu originally wanted to persuade Lao Xia Yunzi, but he didn't know how to speak when he heard the other party. They were not afraid of death at all for such an old man... or they really hoped to die in the battle with Pu Guang, and wanted to drag a few Pu Guang's people to die together!
At least... when you return to Yingling Mountain, you can proudly tell them that the disciples... did not embarrass Taichu.
"Let me go, there are some old bones that are the same as me." Old Xia Yunzi looked at Qin Haoxuan and Zhang Kuang: "I know, you also want to keep all those old bones, right? Let's go and do something for Taichu again. This may be the last time."
Qin Haoxuan looked up at Lao Xia Yunzi: "Old Master, we, Taichu, no longer need to sacrifice as before. We are now strong in our army and horses, and we will definitely be able to level Puguang Pavilion this time. We don't want to send you to Yingling Mountain after this battle. If you really do that, how do you let us face the ancestors of Yingling Mountain?"
Zhang Kuang nodded: "Old Master, Taichu is an era when our ancestors needed to pay for their lives. Now... please let us protect you, okay?"
Old Xia Yunzi looked at Qin Haoxuan and looked at Zhang Kuang again. A smile appeared on his face, with relief and bitterness in his smile. He was relieved that these young people have really grown up. Even if they die immediately now, they don’t have to worry about whether Taichu will have today or tomorrow as they did decades ago.
What was bitter was that Old Xia Yunzi found that these young people with strong cultivation still could not understand his ideas. In this battle... he had no plans to live, he... had lived enough. He was tired... he missed those partners of Yingling Mountain.
Qin Haoxuan and Zhang Kuang looked at each other. Although he was still confident when he went out to fight Pu Guang this time, he was still a supreme sect. After all, he had never seen their sect-sected beasts from beginning to end, nor had he seen the real power of their mountain guard formation. More importantly... The second generation of the Immortal King of the Second World is not an ordinary person...
The life-and-death war really began. Taichu could not achieve a lossless war. There are only a few left of Taichu's old men.
Taichu's thatched hut became very quiet for a while, and the elderly were unwilling to give in. Qin Haoxuan and Zhang Kuang also did not want to give in. Taichu finally had a good life in the future, so how could it let the elderly take risks?
"Haoxuan." Luo Baihua broke the quiet and confrontation atmosphere of the thatched hut: "It's better to choose a few newly acquired disciples in the past fifty years to stay behind. Let these old people go..."
As a generation that connects the past and the future, Luo Baihua understands the ideas of Lao Xia Yunzi as a representative of a group of people, and can also understand the concerns of Qin Haoxuan, Zhang Kuang and others.
"If they don't go to the war, they will suffer every day in the next days." Luo Baihua's words made Lao Xia Yunzi cry.
Qin Haoxuan and Zhang Kuang looked at each other's embarrassed eyes, and finally Qin Haoxuan sighed and said, "Can you do this? You can join the battle, but you have to be at the end of the team. Unless Taichu is gone, or launches a general charge... Everything must be followed by the command of the head coach."
Old Xia Yunzi knew that this was the bottom line between Qin Haoxuan and Zhang Kuang, so he nodded quickly.
Zhang Kuang sent a message to Qin Haoxuan with a little worried: "You can find a master to watch them from behind, it's better to be the kind of person who can play tricks on them. I'm not very relieved to these old people, their seniority is too big, and ordinary people can't even look down on them."
While Qin Haoxuan nodded, he already had a candidate in his heart, Swallowing the Sky Clam!
These days, the swallowing clams have been so badly picked up by the Heavenly Book and the Inner Demon. They are basically in a state of half-dead. The anger in my heart is probably almost blowing up its infinitely enlarged body.
Such a sky-swallowing clam would obviously not care too much about the seniority of Lao Xia Yunzi and others. In theory, there is no possibility of compatibility. In addition, it only needs to let the Heaven and Earth Book and the inner demon threaten it, so that it knows that if the old man is allowed to play, it will give him special training for ten years. I think it should know how to be a good toad.
"Who will be responsible for choosing a new disciple to guard the mountain?" Qin Haoxuan asked in one sentence. Everyone who is willing to work hard for Taichu and even cares about his life is either studying the construction structure theory above the thatched hut, or studying the crawling trajectory of ants on the ground. Otherwise, there are still people who have already looked at their noses and their hearts, and suddenly they seem to have a new insight into cultivating immortals.
Zhang Kuang changed his usual habit of scolding him coldly, but he knew that no one wanted to face the disciple who was ordered to stay behind, because... even if it was not just a matter of crying, making a fuss, or hanging, few people could withstand the sad eyes.
"Deputy Master Qin..."
Zhang Kuang's name made Qin Haoxuan very angry. Why did he just help him solve the old man's affairs and now he is here to make arrangements for himself?
"You are always giving guidance to your disciples these days. I think you have the highest prestige in their hearts." Zhang Kuang said happily: "It's better to go and tell them. I think they will listen to you very much."
Qin Haoxuan suddenly discovered that Zhang Kuang, the second-hand man, was sometimes a monkey spirit! Who said he was stupid? Who said he was thinking about things without turning a corner?
"I also think Haoxuan is suitable." Old Xia Yunzi's words at this time made many people present nod. Everyone knows that if it weren't for Deputy Chief Qin, it would probably fall on him.
Qin Haoxuan turned his gaze to Xu Yu...
"Husband, I'm willing to go with you."
Xu Yu's words made Qin Haoxuan wonder if his Taoist partner had understood his eyes wrongly? He didn't ask you to go with him! He asked you to speak out and say that I was not suitable.
Qin Haoxuan knew that he couldn't say anything to remind Xu Yu at this time, so he could only turn his eyes on Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin was in a difficult situation at this moment! On the one hand, the master clearly asked him to stand up and speak for him, and on the other hand, the mistress has always been a smart person, and it is impossible not to know the master's thoughts. Obviously, the mistress has her own ideas.
"Master! Don't worry, I'll go with you too! Whoever doesn't agree, I'll beat him to the point of obedience!" Xiao Jin finally chose to stand on the side of the mistress and pretend to be stupid because of the cracks on Xiao Shitou's body that he had seen with his own eyes.
Qin Haoxuan gave up and continued to look at others with his eyes. The deacons in the Mian Pu team may be able to understand what they mean, but now Xu Yu and Xiao Jin are talking, and their objections are of no value.
"Okay...I'll go." Qin Haoxuan secretly decided to turn around and fight Pu Guang. He must find an excuse to fight Zhang Kuang. In order to avoid damaging the surrounding environment, he has to find a way to make him agree to the fight between the two sides in a mortal state, so that he can experience the social beatings.
Old Xia Yunzi looked at Qin Haoxuan, Zhang Kuang and the others present, and suddenly laughed. He smiled happily...
Qin Haoxuan asked in confusion: "Old man, are you?"
"It's really like it." Old Xia Yunzi said: "It's been so many years since Taichu, and it's not like today. It's so much like when the Huanglong Master was still there and when our group of people were in a meeting..."
Qin Haoxuan instantly understood that the old man said that Taichu has lived too depressedly over the years, and Taichu is now very similar to what he was back then.
Old Xia Yunzi was still laughing, saying "It's so similar" in her mouth, and her eyes were filled with mist.
Many old Taichu people laughed happily when they first thought of Taichu back then. Not long after, there was mist in their eyes.
