The gates of hell everywhere in the world were finally closed.
The surging yellow spring returned to the land, and the billowing black air disappeared, and the mysterious clouds that covered the sky and the sun finally dissipated, revealing the light of the sky.
Most of the ghosts and grievances who had been suppressed in the depths of the Yellow Springs for hundreds of years were deliberately released by Qu Xie, wandering in the streets and alleys. Therefore, in the ninety-nine-eighty-one days after Qu Xie was suppressed, the major families were setting up altars to save these dead souls. , was forcibly pulled out by the eldest grandson Chengfeng and set up an altar, holding the "Tai Shang Chao Du Jing" and reciting it day and night in a dizzy manner.
The last thing Xu Shuangce wanted to do in his life was chanting sutras. He came out of the ghost wall with the little fox in his arms. When he saw this scene, he immediately left. In the end, before taking two steps, the people from Xuanmen, headed by Changsun Chengfeng, rushed up to cry, called their mother, dragged their sleeves and hugged their thighs. They pulled them back, and even temporarily built a temple in the east for Sect Master Xu. The shrine, the incense burner, and the fruit plate were all complete. Wen Xiuyang took the disciples of the Cangyang Sect and knelt on the ground, eagerly waiting for Sect Master Xu to use his divine power to ward off the undead.
Changsun Chengfeng originally wanted to attack Gong Wei, but Gong Wei was so shrewd, he shrugged his tail like a little fox without saying a word, and his round eyes were filled with heartache and regret of overdraft. Changsun Chengfeng and the little fox looked at each other with sincere eyes for a moment, but as expected, they were defeated. They had to kidnap Yuchi Rui Wuhua, who had sneaked out to eat peanuts, and the poor next leader was locked in a small dark room. Two months of menstruation.
Ninety-nine-eighty-one days later, tens of millions of ghosts have been rescued, and they have rushed from the human world to the ghost walls to reincarnate, and Qingming and peace have finally been restored in various places.
This achievement can be called a great achievement. The Huangquan, which suppressed countless dead souls, was almost cleaned up, which means that the great masters used manpower to do things that Prince Gui has not done in hundreds of years.
But after the human world was cleaned up, the reconstruction of the Xuanmen’s Hundred Families was still very arduous – Shengxiantai collapsed, and the façade was flattened. There were countless deaths and injuries among the children of major families, even centuries-old noble families such as Cangyang Sect and Ye Jinmen were affected. Serious damage.
To rebuild, you must have money.
In the past, when Ying Kai was still the leader of the alliance, he once ordered a huge amount of money to be saved in the Xianmeng, totaling one million taels of gold. Usually, no one was allowed to move it. Only after encountering an unprecedented natural disaster, did he specially allocate it to a hundred families of Xuanmen. For post-disaster resettlement and reconstruction, it is just right for the current situation. However, the million gold used for this special fund can only be approved and controlled by the leader of the alliance. Without the leader, there is no way to control it. Therefore, after peace is restored in the world, the strongest desire of the Xuanmen hundred schools is to quickly establish the next leader of the alliance.
Ying Kai's last wish was to let Yu Chi Rui take over the Immortal League. Under normal circumstances, there would definitely be people who would come out and oppose it loudly, but what was unexpected was that this time it passed unanimously. .
The eldest Sun Chengfeng, who was in charge of presiding over the vote, was very relieved when he saw this, so he and Mu Duozhu held the seal of the alliance leader and went to the door to invite Yuchi Rui to come out. As a result, Yu Chi Rui, who was sitting at home smashing peanuts and watching "The Swordsman Collection", was shocked when he heard the news, and slowly raised his head. Although his handsome face was expressionless, his pupils were clearly trembling: "... why not let the palace Just go."
Changsun Chengfeng said sincerely: "Jingxian said that the way of heaven does not care about human affairs, and everything in the world has its own cause and effect."
Yu Chi Rui immediately said, "Xu Shuangce is not the way of heaven, Xu Shuangce is a mortal who ascended."
"The God of the East said that you can give money, but you can't give strength."
"..." Yu Chi Rui shifted his gaze and pointed at Mu Duozhu, who was hiding in the corner: "Yi Zong is the oldest."
This is true, Mu Duozhu, who looks young, has actually lived to be over a hundred years old, and is indeed the most senior among all of them - however, Changsun Chengfeng shook his head regretfully: "Brother Mu said that the money will contribute. No, being the leader of the alliance delays him making money."
Yu Chi Rui glared at Mu Duozhu, who pretended to appreciate the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.
After a long stalemate, Yuchi Rui had no choice but to turn his attention to the last candidate in the world - Changsun Chengfeng, and solemnly said: "Juzong has both political integrity and talent, which is what everyone expects."
Changsun Chengfeng immediately declined: "No, no, I've only learned a few things here, so I'm really not qualified."
Yu Chi Rui insisted: "You are in charge of saving the undead."
Changsun Chengfeng clasped his fists and bowed: "That's all the immortal friends working together, the gods of the East have worked hard and made great achievements."
Yuchi Rui said, "But the God of the East was saved after you built the temple."
"To tell the truth, the temple was built in a hurry, and there are only three mud tile houses."
Yu Chi Rui still didn't give up: "The matter of voting on the leader of the alliance is also your busy schedule."
"The great event of the Xianmeng is what everyone expects, how could it be due to me alone!" The eldest grandson Chengfeng was about to break down in cold sweat: "Jianzong is what the Hundred Family members of Xuanmen want, please don't refuse any more!"
"… "
Yu Chi Rui frowned, and a deep suspicion finally arose in his heart: "Impossible, you are so hardworking, no one in the Xuanmen has nominated you to be the leader of the alliance?"
The eldest grandson Chengfeng murmured silently.
Mu Duozhu in the corner finally couldn't stand it any longer, and turned his head and sighed: "No, everyone is scared to see him so diligent."
Yu Chi Rui was stunned: "What are you afraid of?"
"Don't you think he will easily become the second Ying Kai if he continues like this?" Mu Duozhu said sadly.
The room fell into a dead silence, Yu Chi Rui glared at the innocent Changsun Chengfeng, for a long time he could not find a reason to refute.
Yu Chi Rui finally lived up to the public's expectations... In other words, he was poor in skills, and took over the position of the leader of the Xianmeng under the ardent eyes of Xuanmen.
As a result, even the Immortal League was not rebuilt and the succession ceremony was not held in time. When he opened his eyes the next morning after taking office, Yu Chi Rui understood why everyone had previously avoided the position of the leader of the alliance.
"Reconstruction appropriation?" Yu Chirui raised his head from "The Sword Washing Collection" while knocking peanuts, and said inexplicably, "Dial, why haven't you allocated yet?"
Changsun Chengfeng came to visit again, sitting across from the table, rubbing his hands uneasily: "Ying alliance leader once saved a million taels of gold for this matter."
Ying Kai has clean sleeves and a simple life. His favorite thing to do on weekdays is to save money. Yuchi Rui said as a matter of course, "Huh?"
"... He put the money in... a cornucopia of graceful instruments."
"and then?"
Changsun Chengfeng hesitated to speak, but he finally said bravely, "When the World Destroying Soldiers smashed and fell, the entire Dai Mountain collapsed, and the cornucopia was... smashed into scum."
Yu Chi Rui's eyes froze instantly.
"The Immortal Alliance doesn't have a single piece of copper right now." Changsun Chengfeng mustered his courage to look at him, his eyes carrying the common expectations of the monks all over the world: "Mr. Yuchi, can you please... give me the money?"
Whoa!
The latest special issue of Kaiyuan Miscellaneous News: the new leader of the alliance Yuchi Changsheng, the full series of heroic portraits! "Let go out and fall on the desk.
After a long delay, Alliance Leader Yuchi seemed to suddenly wake up from the shock, grabbed the Divine Sword Rakshasa Pagoda, staggered to his feet, and walked out.
Changsun Chengfeng hurriedly followed behind: "Changsheng! Don't be impulsive! I'll give you ten thousand... twenty thousand taels, don't do stupid things!"
Yuchi Rui didn't look back, and squeezed out a few words from his teeth: "Go to Cangyang Mountain and borrow money."
The Cangyang Sect was the first in the world to start rebuilding the sect—Sect Master Xu had always been wealthy enough to rival the country, and he didn’t need funds from the Immortal Alliance, so he didn’t care about that money at all.
Now that he has ascended, Xu Shuangce should leave the world and return to the heaven. However, the Cangyang Sect was unable to choose an heir, and the succession ceremony of the Immortal Alliance Leader had not yet been held, so he was still living in seclusion in Cangyang Mountain for the time being and continued to be the nominal Cangyang Sect Leader.
The new leader and Juzong visited, and the eldest disciple Wen Xiuyang hurried to greet him. However, Yu Chi Rui didn't wait for the lead at all. He picked up his sword and flew up the back mountain with a swoosh. He came to Xuanji Hall with a light car. There was a little fox lying on the peach tree in bloom in front of the hall, and Misheng stuck his head out curiously. Come and look at them both.
Yu Chi Rui grabbed Changsun Chengfeng, hid behind a tree, and waved at the little fox.
"?"
Gong Wei didn't know why, so he jumped off the tree and ran in front of them.
Yu Chi Rui squatted down to look at him and asked, "Can you lend me one million taels of gold?"
The little fox suddenly had a fierce look in his eyes and said, "Do you think I look like a million taels?"
Yu Chi Rui nodded: "Understood."
Then he took out a rope from his arms, quickly wrapped the little fox around his head, tied it in a knot, picked it up, and handed it to the eldest grandson Chengfeng.
Gong Wei: "?!"
Changsun Chengfeng shivered on the spot while holding the little fox, and almost threw the supreme god out, and asked in a trembling voice, "What do you want to do, Changsheng?!"
Yu Chi Rui gave him a majestic "silent" look, then took out a handful of peanuts from his arms and stuffed it into Gong Wei, warning in a low voice, "Don't move around, can you steal one million from Xu Shuangce's hands? The two are up to you."
"… "
One person and one fox watched Yuchi Rui turn around, took a deep breath, held the Rakshasa Pagoda tightly, strode up the wide white jade steps in front of Xuanji Hall, stretched out his hand and pushed open the hall door, then straightened his waist and crossed the threshold .
"—The leader of the alliance is here, what's the matter?" Xu Shuangce's calm voice came from the hall.
Clang! There was a sound of Yuchi Rui's sword on the ground, and his voice was tight: "Gong Wei is already in our hands, please ask Sect Master Xu to borrow money!"
The hearts of one person and one fox outside were all in the throat, but Xu Shuangce was silent for a while, and asked, "How much do you want to borrow?"
"One million taels of gold!" "..."
Every minute and every second was extraordinarily long, and the seemingly calm Yu Chi Rui had already turned his calf. After a long while, Xu Shuangce's voice finally sounded again in the hall, and he sneered softly, sneering:
"Only one million taels."
The peanuts in the little fox's paws were all scattered on the ground.
"..." The eldest grandson Chengfeng murmured the question in everyone's heart: "How rich should Sect Master Xu be?"
A quarter of an hour later, Yu Chi Rui carried the confused little fox and handed over the only childish, iron, and dead brother in his life to Xu Shuangce, and solemnly said, "He is yours."
Then he turned around without hesitation, and left Cangyang Sect quickly with the one million taels of gold signed and signed by Sect Master Xu.
The little fox blinked, looked at the back of Alliance Leader Yuchi, and said slowly, "...I seem to know how much I am worth in Changsheng's heart."
Then he turned over, turned into Gong Wei with a bang, hooked Sect Master Xu's neck and said intimately: "But I still don't know how much I am worth in Xu Bai's heart."
Xu Shuangce glanced at him calmly, but did not answer the question.
Gong Wei didn't care, sitting in Xu Shuangce's arms, he announced with a smile, "I belong to Xu Bai."
The silk robe he put on when he woke up this morning hung lazily over his shoulders. With the movement, he slid down to one side, revealing his white and deep-set collarbone. The word "Xu" in blood red seal script under the shoulder socket was striking.
Xu Shuangce's eyes landed on it, Xu Yu raised his hand to stroke the mark with his thumb, and made a low "uh" sound.
Gong Wei lowered his head, and in this posture, he used his teeth to pick up the sleeves of Sect Master Cangyang's robe, and dexterously took off the cuffs of his inner robe. I saw Xu Shuangce's sturdy arm finally exposed in the air, and there was also a bright red inscription above the inner side of his right wrist - Wei.
"Xu Bai is mine too," Gong Wei tilted his head and looked at Xu Shuangce with the corners of his eyes raised, happily saying.
