Lu Shanghe cupped his hands and then said slowly: "Heroes, Colonel Xuanyuan said it right. We are all fellow warriors. Although there may be some minor frictions between us, in the face of great righteousness, never lose the big for the small. Black Lotus Sect It hasn’t been eradicated yet, so we all still have to work together and don’t get into any disputes.”
No one spoke, while some nodded slightly.
"Not only the sect leaders who were kidnapped, but also the other brothers, as long as we have a glimmer of hope, we will try our best to rescue them." Lu Shanghe said solemnly: "Many comrades have been killed and injured this time, and we must not kill more people. I am not right. Listen, just like you, if we are held hostage by them, how can we not save them?"
"Zhuang Master Lu is very benevolent and righteous, and what he said is true." Someone on the side said: "Zhuang Master Lu, what do you think we should do?"
Lu Shanghe said: "The purpose of annihilating the Black Lotus Sect this time is mainly to kill the culprits, the Four Black Lotus Envoys, Taiyin Xuanyang, etc. Naturally, we cannot let them go, but Lu feels that in order to rescue the hostages, we still have to do something. To compromise, I think it is better to negotiate with them and release our people. We can also let some of their followers live and exchange their lives for lives. What do you think?"
"Master Lu, these monsters have killed so many people, and my two disciples died in their hands. Is this all in vain?" someone said sharply.
As soon as this statement came out, many people agreed.
After all, in this attack on the mountain, the heroes suffered heavy losses, and many of their disciples were killed. If they were to be let off easily, they would not be willing to do so.
Lu Shanghe smiled and said: "The Black Lotus Sect is not a comrade in the world. They are black and white with us, and they have never signed an iron-blooded document with the Shenhou Mansion. In this case, if everyone wants to take revenge afterwards, no one can stop us. But at the moment we are big You can make a deal with them."
Everyone immediately understood what he said.
At the moment, you can exchange your lives for lives and let some Black Lotus followers leave temporarily, but if there is a gang chasing after you, no one will care about it.
Everyone was silent, and some people felt that this was quite a bit of a lie.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Shanghe said solemnly: "What do you think? The hostages are inside. They have no way out. They will probably burn themselves to death in there. If it is delayed, it will cause a big disaster."
There was silence for a while, and finally someone said: "Master Lu, everyone can survive and push the Black Lotus Sect into a desperate situation. In the final analysis, it is all thanks to you, Master Lu. Otherwise, everyone will probably die in Qianwu Ridge. You are also considering the hostages now and are kind-hearted, so we won’t say anything more.”
"Yes, Master Lu, as long as we don't let go of the culprits and the minions of the Black Lotus Sect, we can turn a blind eye."
Immediately, many people agreed, but many remained silent.
Lu Shanghe then turned around, went up the stone steps, walked to the Lotus Gate, and said in a deep voice: "Lu Shanghe of Fengjian Villa has come to negotiate with the Black Lotus Sect. Please tell me whether it is life or death." As he spoke, , the inner strength is strong, spreading far away, some people secretly admired, thinking that Fengjian Villa is famous in Bashu, this Lu Shanghe is indeed an extraordinary person.
There was no movement in the hall, and everyone looked at each other in shock.
Lu Shanghe said again: "God has the virtue of good life, do you want all the brothers of the Black Lotus Sect to be buried here?"
After a while, someone suddenly heard someone say: "All of you are under our swords. Now we open the palace door. As long as one person rushes in, all thirty-three hostages will be killed immediately. I, the Black Lotus Sect, will kill all of them immediately." We must fight to the end.”
Everyone was startled. They did not expect that the Black Lotus would take the initiative to open the Lotus Gate. Some people immediately thought that it seemed that the Black Lotus was at the end of its rope, but it was still afraid of death and actually wanted to negotiate with Lu Shanghe.
Lu Shanghe looked at Xuanyuan Po, who had already raised his hand and said, "Everyone, push back and be careful of their tricks."
In fact, all the heroes have this idea, thinking that if the Black Lotus really wants to fight to the end, a group of people will inevitably pour out when the Lotus Gate opens. Whoever stands at the front will definitely be the first to fight against the Black Lotus. For a moment, everyone retreated, hoping to be further away from the Lotus Gate.
Lu Shanghe also pushed down the stone steps and looked up at the Lotus Gate.
Soon, everyone heard the stone door creaking and opening little by little. The heroes were on guard and clenched their weapons. Some even had hidden weapons in their hands. Once there was a fight, they would shoot out the hidden weapons first.
The stone door opened a gap, allowing only one person to enter and exit, and then stopped. The gap was so dark that no one could see clearly what was going on inside.
The heroes looked at each other, but at this moment, they saw a person slowly walking out of the stone door. When the person walked out of the stone door, everyone saw clearly that the person was not wearing the clothes of the Black Lotus Sect, but rather a member of the Jianghu Gang. The clothes and skirts were still stained with blood, but the blood had dried. The man looked very young, less than twenty years old.
Everyone was extremely surprised, and some people thought that this was the hostage that was captured. In order to show their sincerity, the Black Lotus Sect released one hostage first.
At this moment, a voice was heard calling out: "Qi... Qining...!" Among the crowd, a figure had already rushed out and rushed towards the young man. In full view of the crowd, that figure The figure was light and light, and after a few ups and downs, it was already in front of the young man.
Someone immediately recognized that the figure that rushed out was a woman, a female official from the Shenhou Mansion.
The one who suddenly rushed out was none other than Ximen Zhanying, and the one who walked out of the stone door was surprisingly the great Chu Jinyi Hou Qining!
…
Yesterday, the little demon girl pretended to be tired, but she triggered the mechanism on the stone wall. She followed the stone wall and moved into the stone wall. When Qining heard the sound of the mechanism being triggered, she knew something was wrong and rushed towards the little demon without hesitation. Witch.
The little demon girl didn't expect Qining to be so alert and so fast. She watched helplessly as Qining slipped in from the narrow gap that was about to close.
Qi Ning knew that there must be something fishy behind this, but as long as he controlled the little demon girl, everything would be under control. So after rushing in with his body, he immediately reached out and grabbed the little demon girl's wrist. At this moment , the stone wall was completely closed, and at this moment, an extremely strange sound came from above the head, and the little demon girl lost her voice and said: "A stone is falling, hurry up!"
Qi Ning had already realized that there was another mechanism behind the stone wall. Without saying a word, he grabbed the little demon girl and rushed forward. He heard a continuous sound of "coaxing" from behind, but it turned out that there was a stone connection device inside. The formation, the stone wall closed, triggered the mechanism on its own, and the boulders hanging above fell down one by one.
Qi Ning grabbed the little demon girl and rushed a few feet away in one breath. The sound of continuous falling rocks behind him stopped. He calmed down and looked back, only to see that the back was already blocked by huge rocks.
At this time, the surroundings were dark. No matter how good his eyesight was, Qi Ning could only vaguely see some outlines. He was extremely angry and used force on his hands. The little demon girl said softly: "Ouch, ouch, let go, you... Ouch, hold on." It hurts me."
When Qi Ning thought about how cunning this little demon girl was and how she almost killed him, he felt angry and wanted to kill her immediately. But the more situations like this, the more Qi Ning was able to keep a calm mind. He knew that he was being killed. In the trap, if I kill the little demon girl at this time, I am afraid that I will never be able to leave here. Now I can only rely on the little demon girl to lead me out of the trap. She snorted coldly, did not relax, and sneered: "You are so capable. "
"Ouch, it hurts me so much, I'm going to die...!" the little demon girl cried out softly, sounding pitiful and endearing.
Qi Ning then slightly let go, but did not let go.
The little demon girl said angrily: "How can I be as capable as you? You are a grown man and you bully a child."
"Child?" Qi Ning was furious: "Little witch, you've grown everything you should, and you even have hair on your crotch. Are you still a child?" As soon as the words came out, he felt a little embarrassed and snorted coldly. .
The little demon girl shouted: "What did you say? How did you...how did you know that I have hairy hair?"
Qi Ning was even more embarrassed. Naturally, he couldn't say that he saw it when he was rock climbing, but he was a little funny in his heart. He thought to himself that this little witch was really shameless and dared to say anything.
Little did he know that the Miao family girls were not very formal, but the little enchantress had been willful since she was a child and did not dare to have anyone control her. She was ignorant of many humane etiquette between men and women. This was not because she was naive, but because she was ignorant. I don’t know some taboos.
"I know." The little demon girl suddenly shouted: "Did you secretly look at me? When did you look at me? Well... I know, when I climbed the vines up the cliff, you were right below me, so... you Did you peek at someone secretly?"
Qi Ning secretly thought that this little demon girl was really smart, and was a little speechless. When the little demon girl said it clearly, her old face heated up and she said coldly: "That's nonsense. I didn't read it. I just guessed it."
"Can you guess?" The little demon girl was full of disbelief: "You are just a big pervert. You just peek at others. If you are a man, just admit it."
Qi Ning couldn't help but said: "I just saw it, what can you do?"
"Qining, do you think I'm a little less?" the little demon girl said, "I look at the maids around me. They all have a lot of them, but I'm much less than them. It's not nice at all, it's so ugly."
Qi Ning was completely speechless at this moment and couldn't help but say: "You little girl, do you still know how to be ashamed? Can you say such a thing?"
The little demon girl said angrily: "Now you still accuse others of being shameless? Are you aware of shame when you peek at others? Anyway, you can't kill people if you tell them. Qining, do you men have any? Isn't it ugly?"
"Shut up!" Qin Ning's anger was subsided by the little demon girl's nonsense. He was always wary of the little demon girl, worried that she would play another trick, and said coldly: "Stop talking, you almost hurt me. I’m dead, do you know that?”
