Just stay!
Guan Fangyi took the initiative to join hands with Wen Mo'er to explore her cultivation level, and after confirming that there was no threat, Niu Youdao agreed to Wen Mo'er's stay.
In fact, even if Zijindong didn't come to his door this time, he was still thinking about how to make friends with the three major sects.
As he said, he has already encountered a bottleneck. Some things must be faced sooner or later and cannot be avoided. He does not have the strength to fight against the three major factions!
It is difficult to find a way to ride on several boats. The first thing to consider is Xiaoyao Palace, because I have more contact with Xiaoyao Palace and know more about it.
When Xiaoyao Palace took the initiative to release this intention, the reason why he didn't agree was not the main reason why he liked Yi Shu. The main reason was that he felt he was too passive.
His own conditions are not enough, and he has no right to speak when he comes to Xiaoyao Palace. When he is too passive, facing the people of Xiaoyao Palace as an outsider, he is no different from a lamb in a pack of wolves, he can only be at the mercy of them.
In the current national war, Shang Chaozong and Meng Shanming fought brilliantly. The Nanzhou he controlled showed the ability to turn the tide. The power of Nanzhou demonstrated the strength of the mainstay of the Yan Kingdom, and also greatly enhanced the influence of Niu Youdao. , giving him the conditions to talk to Xiaoyao Palace.
However, Shang Chaozong went too far and killed Shi Sheng, the elder of Xiaoyao Palace. He could not estimate how much impact this incident would have within Xiaoyao Palace.
Just at this time, Zijindong took the initiative to come to the door. The conditions were so favorable and full of sincerity that he agreed to grant the position of elder.
It would be difficult for other people from the three major sects to offer better terms. Even if they could offer better terms, he did not want to wait half-heartedly for a price between several companies, and he did not want to bargain any more. Cooperation should make everyone happy. I don’t want to make people unhappy. The benefits of a little more or a little less are not important. Making Gong Linche happy is also his benefit. It is also his room for negotiation. At least Gong Linche is willing to listen. his opinion.
Sometimes the distance created by taking a step back is equivalent to the other party taking a step back!
Gong Linche is quite courageous. Giving him Niu Youdao is like giving it all at once. He Niu Youdao must also show his joy!
Wen Mo'er can stay, but he still needs to speak clearly before staying.
The communication channel here was temporarily lent to Wen Mo'er, allowing Wen Mo'er to report back on the negotiation situation.
After receiving the news about Wen Mo'er, Gong Lince was surprised. He didn't expect it to be solved so easily.
The details of the negotiations were not very clear, and it was not clear on paper for a while. I don’t know how big a role Wen Moer played in this, but it was obviously not a mistake to send Wen Moer there. Gong Lince was very happy. , I felt that I had seen the right person.
After taking down Niu Youdao, once Niu Youdao joins Zijindong, it means that Zijindong controls Nanzhou.
The strength displayed by Nanzhou today controls the national destiny of the entire Yan State. Controlling Nanzhou means a greater say in the Yan State. It also means that the three major factions have a say in the division of interests in the Yan State. How could Gong Lince be unhappy
But then again, this is the overall situation. It is Zijindong who controls Nanzhou. Under this overall situation, he hopes that he will control the situation. To be precise, he hopes that he will control the situation inside Zijindong. Directly control Nanzhou.
Therefore, he still hopes that Niu Youdao can marry Wen Moer, his adopted daughter!
The two parties have reached an intention to cooperate, and the only thing left is when the matter will be implemented. Gong Linche naturally hopes that the matter will be implemented as soon as possible.
The message was quickly replied to.
Smoke and dust billowed, and the army moved forward in a mighty manner. During the march, Meng Shanming looked at Gong Lince outside the car window from time to time, wondering if it was his imagination.
He found that Gong Lince's attitude towards him seemed to have improved a lot and he smiled more at him.
It wasn't his illusion. He was about to become one of his own, so Gong Linche's attitude towards him naturally changed, not to mention that he already had a good impression of Meng Shanming through contact.
…
The lake reflects the sky full of stars, the raft floats freely, and the three people on the raft are still there.
Gong Linche's reply message was received and he hoped that the matter would be implemented as soon as possible, but Niu Youdao did not want to be too anxious and asked to wait.
It was the first time that Wen Mo'er shouldered the important responsibility given by the boss. She could not be vague with him, otherwise she would not be able to explain to him, so she faced the problem head-on: "If we don't finalize the matter now, is it possible that Brother Niu still wants to wait for changes?"
"You are thinking too much." Niu Youdao sat cross-legged on the raft, holding his sword in one hand and gently touching the quiet lake water that reflected the stars in the night sky with the other hand. His hands were cool and soft, "The secret realm of Tiandu is about to be opened, haven't you heard? "
Wen Mo'er frowned, "You want to enter the Tiandu Secret Realm?" Thinking about it, it was wrong, "You are a casual cultivator, so you are not qualified to enter. If you want to enter, you have to wait until you join the Zijin Cave."
Niu Youdao rolled his eyes when he heard this, raised his head and asked, "Miss Wen, are you sick or am I sick? I knew it was a dead end, but I still rushed in. Am I impatient?"
"..." Wen Mo'er became speechless and asked, "What do you mean?"
Guan Fangyi on the side chuckled and said, "Miss Wen, you misunderstood what the Taoist meant. The Taoist didn't want to enter the Tiandu Secret Realm, so he delayed it first. Think about it, he is a casual cultivator and is not qualified to enter. , once he becomes a disciple of the Zijin Cave, it will be out of his control, and he might get in."
Wen Moer suddenly realized and said hurriedly: "This is impossible! Brother Niu, the secret realm of Tiandu is only opened once in fifty years. The list of candidates from each country is selected and submitted by the sects ranked in the Piaomiao Pavilion in each country. You have become a member of the Zijin Cave. , even if the Zijin Cave is about to recruit people, they will not send you out. If this is really the case, it will be shooting yourself in the foot. There is no need to invite you to join the Zijin Cave and expend so much effort. You are worrying too much. "
Niu Youdao shook his head: "You can't say that. No one knows whether something will change in many things. I have offended a lot of people in all countries. If I am really taken into the secret realm of Tiandu, it will be so fun." I am too old to be hunted down from beginning to end. Do you think I dare to take this risk? I have to take precautions! I can obviously stay out of it, so there is no need to put myself in uncertainty! "
Wen Mo'er: "Brother Niu, as long as you join the Zijin Cave, the leader cannot let such a thing happen. Taking a step back, even if you really enter, the Zijin Cave will definitely call on other monks from the Yan Kingdom to protect you. You, I won’t let anything happen to you.”
Niu Youdao waved his hand and shook the water on his hand, "It's not just because of the Tiandu Secret Realm! The war is not over yet, and I can't openly stand on the Zijin Cave side. Have you ever thought about it, Xiaoyao Can Gong and Lingjian Mountain just sit back and watch something like this happen? They don’t want to see Zijin Cave take advantage of this, so they must try their best to stop it.”
"With the current war situation, Yan State is in a very dangerous situation. It is the time when we are united in dealing with the outside world. We cannot start internal strife. If the war is really defeated because of this, the gains outweigh the losses. If the Yan State is gone, does it matter whether I join the Zijin Cave or not? So , the current internal overall situation cannot go wrong, and the situation must be stabilized. Now is indeed not the time to join Zijin Cave. Don’t worry, I keep my word. Once the war is over, I will join Zijin Cave and I will not break my promise. Besides, it’s not Are you still here to watch?"
Gong Linche still insisted on letting Wen Mo'er stay here. He was so insistent that Niu Youdao didn't want to go against such a small matter after careful consideration. As long as he kept his position, Wen Mo'er couldn't make trouble, so he agreed .
Wen Mo'er fell silent. This reason was probably worthy of the leader's careful consideration, and it was better not to rush into it.
Niu Youdao continued: "Let's talk about your '10,000 steps back' statement. Now I really want to join the Zijin Cave. Once I really enter the Tiandu Secret Realm, Zijin Cave still wants to call on the monks of the Yan Kingdom to protect me? Xiaoyao Palace Is Lingjian Mountain just a decoration? I'm afraid that not only the monks from other countries will kill me, but also the monks from Yan Kingdom will not let me go. By then, there will be no human beings inside and outside, and I will be attacked from both sides. Will I still have a way to survive? ? Now that I have joined the Zijin Cave, Xiaoyao Palace and Lingjian Mountain must not take the opportunity to try their best to get me into the secret realm of Tiandu? Miss Wen, everyone should be at ease and don't be in a hurry."
After that, he lay back, with his hands on his arms and a pillow under his head, looking at the stars in the night sky, drifting with the waves on the raft, lying there leisurely!
Wen Mo'er stared at him for a while, and then said slowly: "The State of Zhao killed the envoy of Yan, the State of Qi injured the disciples of the Tianhuo Sect, and the Thatched Cottage resisted the imperial court. I am fearless as Brother Niu. When we meet today... I am not as famous as I am." "
Niu Youdao chuckled, "You want to say that I am greedy for life and afraid of death, right?"
Wen Moer neither admitted nor denied, turned around and wrote a secret letter, asking for golden wings to fly under the moon.
When she turned around afterwards, she found Guan Fangyi looking at her with a smile. Wen Moer always felt that there was something strange in the smile the other party gave her.
Guan Fangyi asked: "When you talk to him like this, aren't you afraid that he will become the elder of Zijindong and take revenge on you?"
Wen Mo'er didn't say a word.
Guan Fangyi came forward again and grabbed her catkins in her hand, and asked with a smile: "Miss Wen really doesn't plan to leave?"
Wen Mo'er: "Is the matchmaker in a hurry to drive me away?"
"That's not true. I just want to remind you that he is not a good guy. He is a lustful ghost. It shows that a beautiful woman like you will not dare to use any dirty tricks. I am afraid that you are not safe." Guan Fang Yi Xian pointed at the cow lying there as a kind reminder.
Wen Moer turned his head and looked at Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao closed his eyes and smiled.
The reason why things are being delayed is not only due to the reasons he mentioned, but also because the current situation is still uncertain, and he uses the excuse to stabilize the Zijin Cave first and then wait and see.
The ripples are rippling under the moonlight, the man on the wooden raft is lying with his sword across, and the two women are standing holding hands. The night is quiet, like a dreamland with stars and moon...
After receiving Wen Mo'er's reply, Gong Lince, who was standing outside the tent, looked around the army camp. "Alas!" He sighed softly and realized that he had indeed acted too hastily. He had to admit that Niu Youdao was right. God. The matter in the secret realm is not a problem, but that Niu Youdao is really not suitable to rush to take sides at the moment. The war is the most important thing at the moment, and it is really not suitable to start internal strife.
Then he replied to Wen Moer and agreed to postpone it.
