I respect him so fragrant

Chapter 44 Exchange

On the second day after the letter was sent, news came from the Guiluo Market.

But it is not good news.

The city lord of Guiluo killed several accompanying immortal elders, imprisoned Immortal Jiaoyue, and said that the time when the immortal family attacked the city was the time when Immortal Jiaoyue died.

Everyone is angry.

That night, the main tent was brightly lit, and a group of leaders headed by the head of the Banxue Sect, Bixue Xianzun, gathered here to discuss how to rescue Jiaoyue Xianzun.

The discussions became intense, and everyone's opinions gradually divided into two factions.The first is to take advantage of the unpreparedness and directly attack the city to save people. The second is to send an elite team to sneak into the city, save people first and then plan to attack the city.

Both are not good methods, and both factions hold their own opinions.

At this juncture, the Lord of Ghost Fallen City sent an envoy.

He said he wanted peace talks.

If their conditions are met, people can be released and even surrendered.

Everyone talked about it, thinking it was some harsh conditions.Unexpectedly, the envoy smiled slightly, bowed, and called Jiang Gu by name.

As long as Jiang Gu is handed over, the Ghostfalling City Lord will personally lead the city to surrender, and the Immortal Bright Moon can also return safely.

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the camp.

The envoy was not in a hurry, and only said that the period would be three days.Once the time passed, no matter whether the Xianmen family attacked the city or not, the Jiaoyue Immortal Venerable would lose his life.

Immediately afterwards, he turned into a black smoke.

It actually disappeared in place.

It was Fang Xuan, the Patriarch of the Fang family, who was the first to react, and said sharply, "Hurry up and chase! How can these villains be let go!"

"It's just a phantom," said Xianzun Ruxue, closing his eyes, in a low voice, "Why bother."

"Then, should we agree to the conditions he proposed?" In the corner, a Patriarch asked.

"Of course I agree." Fang Xuan snorted coldly, "Who is Jiaoyue Xianzun and who is that kid? You can surrender, how many casualties can be reduced! So I don’t need to say anything, anyone with a discerning eye knows how to do it.”

As soon as these words came out, there were many people who echoed them for a while.

"I disagree!" Li Qihan slapped the case, "Could it be that we believe what they say? If this is a trap, then if we hand over Jiang Gu, not only will we not be able to save Jiaoyue Immortal Venerable, but we will also take Jiang Gu Advance to the dangerous place!"

As the only disciple of Immortal Bixue and the future head of the Xuemen, Li Qihan has always been respected.Although he only entered the main tent to listen to the discussion today as an immortal master, no one dared to underestimate him, even Fang Xuan had to give him three points of face.

However, Li Qihan has always been polite, so he doesn't participate in discussions very much, but just sits in a proper manner.

This was the first time everyone saw him getting angry.

Even Immortal Venerable Xue was slightly surprised and raised his eyes to look at him.

Seeing himself being refuted by a young junior in front of so many people, Fang Xuan couldn't let it go.His complexion turned cold, and he said unhappily: "Master Li, you are young and don't know how to do this. Jiang Guruo is really a fledgling fairy boy, who can let the Lord of Ghostfall want him by name? Naturally, there is something hidden. .Not long ago, the ghost fell into the market, I think everyone still remembers it?"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, there was an uproar in the tent.That day, the monsters rioted, and the monsters haunted the ghost market, everyone has heard about it, and the rumors that all this was caused by the disciple Jiang Gu of the Wanyue Sect were even more mysterious.It was only later that Wan Yuemen responded that none of this had anything to do with Jiang Gu, and the rumors gradually subsided.

But today this matter was brought up again by Fang Xuan, coupled with the analysis in a few words, everything seemed to become confusing again.

"That's right, Ruojiang Gu is really just an ordinary disciple, why did the Lord of Ghost Falling want him by name? And he has such high requirements!"

"This Jiang Gu can't really be the legacy of the Hanjiang clan, right? If you look around and see the Hanjiang clan, who can summon monsters, even a monster king?"

"But isn't the Hanjiang family all extinct..."

"That's not sure, the one from ten years ago, isn't it?"

"..."

Seeing that the discussion on this matter intensified, Master Sixue frowned, and said coldly: "Okay, don't talk about it."

The camp suddenly became quiet again.

The candlelight flickered, clearly reflecting the expressions and movements of the people present. Those who stayed out of the matter remained silent, those who were dubious and skeptical frowned, and those who agreed with it were confident.Except for Li Qihan, there was no one who opposed it.

It seems that everyone else has tacitly accepted that Jiang Gu's status is special.

"You all know that he is a descendant of the Hanjiang clan, do you have evidence?" Li Qihan said, "You have forgotten that he is the only disciple of the Shuiyue Xianzun. If there is any abnormality, the Shuiyue Xianzun who gets along with him every day will see not come out?"

"Hmph," Fang Xuan sneered, "People's hearts are unpredictable, who knows if Shuiyue Xianzun will protect him?"

Li Qihan said: "Patriarch Fang be careful, you can't say such slanderous words!"

"Without any evidence, how do you know whether what I said is true or not?" Fang Xuan asked back, "It's all the same."

Li Qihan wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Immortal Xue: "Stop talking." He had no choice but to suppress the anger in his eyes, and didn't say any more.

Xue Xianzun, dressed in white, wins the snow, with a cold expression on his face: "Patriarch Fang, what you mean now is to agree to the envoy's conditions?"

"Yes," Fang Xuan said bluntly, "I think this is the best method at present."

"What do the others think?"

None of the people present made a sound, obviously acquiescing to Fang Xuan's proposal.

"The people who hold Fengmen and Xihuamen think the same way?"

This time, the heads of the two sects were not accompanied by the immortals, and the leaders were two senior immortals.Hearing Xue Xianzun's question, the head of the wind gate was silent for a while, and said: "Yes, Xue Xianzun, I agree."

"Why?" Immortal Venerable Xue Xue was not surprised, "Could it be that the reason for the Immortal Elder is the same as Patriarch Fang's?"

"No." The elder who held the door shook his head, "I just think that it is the most cost-effective way to exchange one person's sacrifice for the peace of both parties."

"This statement sounds like it is contrary to the morality that Zhifengmen adheres to."

"In the face of the lives of hundreds of Zhifengmen disciples," the head of Zhifengmen paused, and continued, "morality is the most useless thing."

Li Qihan's face immediately changed.

He practiced magic since he was a child, and was instilled with countless principles of benevolence, righteousness and integrity.No one is high or low, human life is equally important, and the existence of immortals is to help the world and save the people, etc. This is the morality that he has believed in all these years.He never felt that these morals were useless, and he never thought that one day these morals would be denied by a respected immortal cultivator himself.

The shattering of faith sometimes only takes a moment.

Looking at the calm and righteous faces of many "Zhufang Celebrities" in front of him, Li Qihan suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Regardless of whether the enemy gave a trap or not, they simply wanted to reduce the casualties under their banner, so they bet their hope and tranquility on a disciple who was under 20 years old.

If you succeed, everyone will be happy, and if you fail, you will find a way.

It's not cheap, it's cowardly.

"The celestial gate has not fallen down for hundreds of years," Li Qihan got up and walked out of the tent, "It never relied on the method of exchanging the sacrifice of a few for the survival of the majority."

His words were so loud that the Immortal Head of Zhifengmen, who was consciously correct, was speechless.

"This……"

"Although the elder said his sincerity, Jiang Gu is still in a mortal body." Immortal Si Xue said, "We have no right to decide whether he will go or not."

"What does the immortal mean?"

"Let him decide for himself."

It has nothing to do with rumors, identity, qualifications, or status.

It just depends on whether he wants to or not.

"Although Xianzun's proposal is good," Fang Xuan retorted immediately, "but if Jiang Gu disagrees, the other disciples will die, which is unfair to them."

Immortal Master Sixue glanced over coldly.

"It's better to change it." Fang Xuan didn't change his face, "Let all the disciples vote, if more than half of them agree, Jiang Gu has to go."

"This is unfair to Jiang Gu."

"There are always people who want to step back." Fang Xuan sneered, "Jiang Gu, as a disciple of Shuiyue Immortal, should be more magnanimous."

***

On the second day, the news about the vote to decide whether Jiang Gu would go to the ghost market to exchange spread throughout the camp.

When Mu Ye rushed into Jiang Gu's tent, Jiang Gu was painting with all his heart.

"When are you still painting?" Mu Ye said angrily, "They're going to sell you!"

Jiang Gu still carefully outlines the outline of the face, just like wiping his own spiritual sword in the past, sincere and sincere.

"Did you hear what I said?" Mu Ye slapped the table violently, "They are all voting, if more than half of the people agree, you will be exchanged to the ghost market!"

"I know," Jiang Gu said without taking his eyes off, "So what?"

"Why do they treat you like this!" Mu Ye said, "You are a living person, not some device that can be smashed at will! Why do they decide your fate without authorization?"

"Does Brother Mu think that more than half of the people will agree with me?"

Hearing this, Mu Ye was suddenly at a loss for words, and he didn't know how to answer.

Jiang Gu said lightly: "I care about life and death, so others don't care about life and death? Or do seniors think that I am worth letting people give up life and death?"

"If they dare to agree, I will beat them one by one until they dare not agree." Mu Ye gritted his teeth and said angrily, "A bunch of heartless things."

"It's useless." Jiang Gudao, "From the moment I know all this, I understand that everything I do is useless."

He will not condemn them from the highest point of morality, nor does he expect them to give up life and death for morality.

Because in this world, there are too few people who can really put life and death aside.

"Let's go to Shuiyue Immortal," Mu Ye clenched his fists, "Jiang Gu, he is your master, he won't just let you die."

"It's even more impossible." Jiang Gu snapped his wrist, and a drop of ink dripped on the rice paper, "Master must never know about this."

He is injured, so he must not worry about it.

"Then let's go to the head of the sect, to the Immortal Master Sixue, to anyone we know." Mu Ye said, "They can always save you."

"How could they not know such a big thing."

"If you don't speak, that's their attitude."

Jiang Gu changed a piece of rice paper, studied ink and painted again: "Mu Shixiong, go back, don't worry about me."

Some things are destined not to be forced.

Marriage, wealth, life and death are all determined by God.

He only hoped that before he left, he could finish this painting and send it back to Shuiyue Jingtian.

He put all his heart into it.

This is the only thing he can call the shots.

The author has something to say: I wish everyone a happy holiday haha ​​although it is a bit late...
