Chapter 583 Imprisonment

"Is this for me?" Looking at the Zhu Guo in the brocade box, the greed in my eyes slowly dissipated, and I looked calm.

Xu Yan, who was sitting in the main seat, nodded and said: "I have been observing you since you came in. Your life is about to end, the poison has invaded your bone marrow, and your life is not long. But God has the virtue of good life, and you and I happened to meet here. , and I happen to be carrying a thousand-year-old red fruit that can remove aphrodisiacs. This is fate. Now that fate has arrived, the things must be given away. "

Xu Yan's words moved me very much, but I knew that this matter couldn't be that simple. It was just a fart to say that God has the virtue of a happy life, but fate has already arrived. I don't wear the mask of good and evil Shura. No matter what I do, I will be targeted by God and be riddled with bad luck. At this time, someone would stupidly give me an extremely precious thousand-year-old red fruit? Something good is coming? No, something evil must be coming!

Thinking about this, I immediately calmed down and looked at the red fruits in the brocade box, as if I was looking at a bottle of prepared poison: "No reward for no merit, I never believe in fate."

I can still maintain my original intention in front of the Millennium Zhu Guo. My cautious move made the mountain guard of the Lingbao Sect, Lu Jingxiu, nod slightly.

This was the first time he made any move after entering the private room. Before, he had always acted like a sculpture, indifferent to everything, and was alone with his eyes closed to meditate.

After hearing my answer, Xu Yan said: "You heard everything Lu Chen said before. The ghost mother is a ghost in the underworld. It is a mistake to appear in the Yang world. We cultivators have the upper body and heavenly mind, so we must get rid of it. This ghost. You are the husband of the ghost mother in the human world. If you help us, we have a 90% chance of winning."

"Wait a minute, you know that I am the husband of the Ghost Mother, but you still want me to help you kill the Ghost Mother? Do you cultivators have such wonderful brain circuits?"

Maybe my wording was too novel, so Taoist Xu Yan didn't understand it. He just frowned and said, "Humans and ghosts have different paths. You are about to die now, and your fate is gone. Maybe it's because you have an affair with the ghost mother." There are too many entanglements. If you want to live for a few more years, you'd better choose to help us. The laws of nature are clear, grudges are clear, and the merits of killing the ghost mother can be counted on you. When the time comes, I will personally help you refine it. Zhu Guo will help you get rid of chitoxins."

"Listen to what you mean, only if I promise to help you kill the ghost mother will you give me the thousand-year red fruit, right?" I looked at the red fruit in the brocade box, and thoughts floated out of my mind one by one.

"It's not help, but full cooperation. You must do what we say." Xu Yan showed a strong side at this time. He must be like this, because he is the person in charge of this operation, and these Tianshi Taoist priests under him They are all elites of various sects. If one of them dies, it will be a huge loss, so he must be foolproof.

"I'm sorry, I'm used to being free and undisciplined. Don't be too busy to help me when the time comes, and I'm holding you back." I declined politely. In my opinion, these words were already very polite.

Leng Qingxuan, who was sitting in the distance to the north, blinked at me desperately and signaled me to agree quickly.

Before I understood what was going on, the faint smile on Taoist Xu Yan's face had disappeared: "The purpose of killing the ghost mother is to benefit the people of the area. In compliance with the destiny, everyone should contribute their own strength."

"Comply with the destiny? If God were sentient, there wouldn't be so many natural disasters and earthquakes in the world. Wouldn't it be nice to have good weather every year? A ruthless and unjust God, I don't understand why you have to obey. Could it be that one day it calls you to go? Will you be willing to die?" As soon as I said this, the atmosphere immediately became a little tense. Even Leng Qingxuan, who had been winking at me, lowered his head at this moment, not daring to answer me. The problem seems to be that I violated some taboo by saying this.

"Presumptuous!" After a short period of calm, Jinshan Sect's senior brother Wei Wenming spoke first: "How dare a mere ant speak out?"

Several Jinshan Sect disciples were in unison and spoke in support of their senior brother. I ignored them. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the real decision-maker here was Qingcheng Xu Yan.

I didn't reply, and the others said it was boring, so they sat back down with a cold snort.

When the room became quiet again, Xu Yan spoke: "Your name is Gao Jian, right? God, it's indescribable. I'm sending this to you. Keep it in my heart. It's only good for you, not bad. This is the first time. I You can think of it as an unintentional act. If there is a second time, maybe I will do justice for God."

He carries an invisible aura about him. Sitting in the main seat, his old body looks like a towering mountain to me.

"Xu Yan's Taoism is unfathomable. It's better for me not to provoke him, so as not to expose my potential to become a life usurper." My mind changed quickly and I didn't speak again.

The Zhengdao Sect completely took the initiative. In the private room, more than a dozen people united to deal with me. It was quite difficult for me to deal with it.

"You have to help this time, whether you want to help or not. Your brother has been captured by us, and your child will be sent here tomorrow. Think about it carefully. For a ghost mother, you have to sacrifice so many relatives in the world. Is it worth the trouble, brother?" Wei Wenming drank tea, his voice was calm and unhurried.

"Are you threatening me?" You can't be soft but you can act hard. They use big sticks and candies, threats and inducements. These Taoist people should have already made a plan before I arrived at the banquet. Everything I saw was just them following the procedures. That’s all.

"Do we need a threat? Besides, do you have the ability to resist?" Wei Jianming, who had long disliked me, interrupted.

"Whether you have the ability to resist, you have to try to find out." I stretched out my hand to touch the ghost ring. The attitude of the people in the Taoist sect was arrogant. They kept doing it again and again. It was really too much.

"Arrogant and arrogant, a mere ghost cultivator dares to speak nonsense in front of us." Wei Jianming immediately turned to ask: "Brother, why don't you let me go and teach this ghost cultivator a lesson. Once he is suppressed, maybe his attitude will change. transformed.”

"Don't be rude." Wei Liangming, the second senior brother of the Jinshan Sect, stood up to smooth things over. He had an elegant temperament and deep eyes. He was the most difficult for me to see through among the four disciples of the Jinshan Sect: "Why should everyone be harmed by a ghost? "

He stopped his junior brother and shook his head, shook his gold-embellished sleeves, stood up and said to me: "The ghost mother doesn't recognize her relatives. One day she will go crazy. Then she won't recognize you at all, and I'm afraid she will even eat her own flesh and blood." . It’s like a human tragedy. Can you bear to see such a scene happen?”

"I'm not sure whether the ghost mother will hurt her own child, but I know you will definitely hurt that child." I glanced at everyone in the room, knowing that things couldn't be resolved today. If I didn't agree, I probably wouldn't have the chance to leave. , thinking of this, I decided to pretend to agree: "It's okay if you want me to help you, but you have to let my brothers and friends go. They are innocent."

"When the ghost mother is killed, they will leave safely. At that time, I may even reward them with some opportunities." Xu Yan came to this conclusion after communicating with several other Taoist priests. He didn't give me anything as soon as he opened his mouth. Room for argument.

Now I also understand that these Taoist priests from well-known families look gentle and elegant, and speak like ancient scribes. In fact, their hearts are higher than the sky. They are all arrogant to the core and look down on ordinary people at all.

They will never allow others to object to what they have decided, and they only asked me to come here just to keep this unstable factor firmly in their hands.

It's funny that before I came, I still had a bit of luck in my heart, trying to convince them that the ghost mother was not an ordinary evil spirit, and that there were deep-seated reasons for killing people.

They didn't care at all about what I said. Maybe in their eyes, I was inferior to them.

Since I couldn't communicate, I didn't want to talk nonsense. I agreed on the surface: "I agree to cooperate with you fully, but I am poisoned and I am afraid that I will not die soon. You must give me this thousand-year-old fruit now."

Breaking into their team also makes it easier for me to carry out sabotage in secret and help the ghost mother at critical moments. As for the reason for asking for the thousand-year red fruit, it is even simpler. How can I push out the benefits that are delivered to my door?

"Zhu Guo, when the banquet is over, I will have someone send it to your room." Xu Yan waved to Xu Wugui and asked him to come back.

"Send it to my room? What do you mean?" I had a bad feeling.

"It's not interesting. It's already dark. Don't run around tonight. Just stay in the hotel."
