Jiugong Xuan said solemnly: "Zhihong, you are totally wrong to have such an idea. If the Supreme Lord of the Western Regions did not have a clear understanding of the kung fu and strength of the various sects in the Central Plains, he would not dare to challenge the various sects in the Central Plains rashly. How could he We are not seeking death, but we know nothing about them and have no way to start. Now all the sects are in a state of confusion, and everyone's nerves are tense, and they are deeply afraid of something unexpected happening to them. I am even more worried about leaving my affairs to the most capable disciple, so I am in a dilemma."
"This is an unprecedented catastrophe in the world. Just as the six eminent monks said twenty years ago, it is inevitable." After speaking, he sighed heavily.
The Four Kunlun Masters saw Jiugong Xuan's face so solemn. No one knew what serious consequences this catastrophe would have. Yu Jiajie couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Is there no room for salvation?"
Jiugong preached: "Back then, the host also said that in twenty years only those who hold the secret book of "Dragon Secret" can save the entire world from the fiery water. Otherwise, the entire world will be devastated and blood will flow into rivers. It will be inevitable again."
Yu Jiajie said: "Now this secret book is in the hands of Liu Xin of the Cangshan Sect. Why not take Liu Xin directly there? Will the so-called catastrophe in the world be destroyed by itself?"
Jiugong preached: "What you said is correct, but Leader Liu did not ask to bring Liu Xin with him. It is not good for everyone to talk too much, because the leader of the Cangshan Sect who talks too much will definitely have objections to us, which will attract unnecessary trouble. To avoid the trouble, Liu Xin and all the Cangshan Sect disciples will return to the Cangshan Sect tomorrow to stick to their own sect, but if something unexpected happens to us, we will definitely accompany everyone from each sect to invite Liu Xin to come forward to quell this catastrophe."
Yu Jiajie said: "Don't worry, leader, we will definitely do what you want. We will never let the Supreme Lord of the Western Regions run amok throughout the Central Plains, kill without restraint, and bring devastating disasters to the world." After finishing his words, He turned around and looked at all the sect leaders around him who were explaining everything to their apprentices. Their expressions were all serious and meticulous.
Half an hour later, all the people from all the sects in the hall dispersed. Only the leader of the Kunlun Sect and the Four Kunlun Masters were present. Jiugong Xuan was still a little worried. After all, they were young and did not have much experience. They had too little experience. So he repeatedly told me: "If I go here, if I can't come back, you must act according to the method I said. Don't forget these things, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. You must keep it in mind. After that, each took a picture He patted them on the shoulders, turned around and left the hall, followed closely by the four Kunlun heroes.
The next morning the air was exceptionally cool and the sunshine was extremely soft. Many disciples of the Kunlun sect gathered at the entrance of the Kunlun sect early in the morning, waiting anxiously and patiently for their leader to appear in front of them, looking into the distance with expectant eyes. At this time, Liu Qiankun took the lead and walked directly in front of everyone. The heads of various sects followed closely behind. Everyone's steps were so heavy. They also came to the disciples of their own sects, as if There are thousands of things to say to them, and every word is so solid and reliable.
Master Shengde, the head of the Emei Sect, gently stroked Ye Zijun's hair and said: "Zijun, we parted this time. I wonder if we can meet each other safely next time? If I can teach you martial arts in person, I really want to say goodbye this time." I feel so reluctant to leave you. Maybe this time we will really say goodbye. I will never see you again. Why don't you make me feel heartbroken? It's like a cold sharp knife piercing my chest. I seem to be Struggling on the verge of death." After saying this, tears welled up in his eyes.
When Ye Zijun heard what she said, he felt even more painful and troubled. His lips began to tremble and he said in a trembling voice: "Master, you are in the same mood as us now. You are reluctant to leave us, and we are reluctant to leave you. , this is also a love that is hard to let go of. We believe that you will come back safely, and if you get together with us again, I believe that the turmoil in the world will subside. We are waiting for your safe arrival, and I will definitely do it when you are away. I will guide my junior sisters and the others well and carry forward the spirit of the Emei Sect." While Ye Zijun was speaking, he couldn't help but shed tears from his eyes. All the disciples burst into tears at the same time, with tears falling down their cheeks like broken pearls.
Master Shengde raised her right hand to wipe Ye Zijun's tears with her sleeve, bit her steel teeth and said, "You are wrong, Zijun. If you cry like this, won't the other junior sisters burst into tears and scream?" How can I be willing to leave you, how can I entrust you with such a great responsibility? How can I bear to leave you if you continue to cry like this? Stop crying, don’t cry anymore." The last two sentences were extremely high-spirited.
All the disciples heard her anger and quickly wiped the tears on their faces. They all remained silent and looked at each other.
Master Shengde reluctantly nodded, "Is this right? If it weren't for me, you could still hold up the sky and carry forward the Emei Sect." After saying that, he turned around and returned to Liu Qiankun without saying anything more. The first half of the sentence.
Luo Binkui saw that all the disciples were in tears, and the anger in his heart couldn't come out from anywhere. He raised his finger and cursed: "Look at everyone crying like a tearful person, like a girl, so why are you so angry?" Too many tears are not about separation between life and death. As the saying goes, a man will not shed tears easily, and there is gold in his knees. You don’t remember these wise words. I usually love you, so you must keep these words in mind, but you You all turned a deaf ear to it, hearing it in one ear and hearing it in another, and didn't take it seriously. You who are even a little like my disciples of the Kongtong Sect, Luo Binkui, really shame me. Wipe your tears quickly."
After hearing what he said, all the disciples quickly wiped away their tears. Suddenly, a disciple standing at the front of the row came to Luo Binkui and said: "The other disciples of the master are crying like this. In fact, they are reluctant to let the master leave us. This departure is very unlucky, and the fortunes and misfortunes are unpredictable. The most fearful thing is that the master will not be able to come back safely, and all of our disciples can't keep the master from leaving, so we couldn't help but shed tears and asked the master. Forgive us for our insincere words."
Luo Binkui's tone began to become gentle, not as sonorous as before, and his heart began to soften, saying: "I know your mood now, we have only been separated for a few days, there is no need to be so sad, let me I am heartbroken to see you like this. If something unexpected happens in the future, you should bravely support the Kongtong sect. You should not lose the reason that ordinary people should have because of the loss of my existence. From now on, let Kongtong Do you know how much regret and pain I feel in my heart if the sect fails, or disappears from the world from now on? It makes me shameless to see the ancestors of the Kongtong sect in the future. "
Then he sighed and said: "Mei Jinlong, during the period when I am gone, you must teach other senior brothers and junior brothers well, let them practice martial arts diligently in the sect, carry forward the sect's kung fu, and resist foreign enemies. Although You are not the eldest disciple of this sect, but you are the most respected disciple in this sect. Today, I personally pass this master token to you, "I casually took out a purple double butterfly flying flower from my sleeve pocket. The amber was handed to his hand, and he slowly closed his hand. All the disciples opened their eyes wide and stared at Mei Jinlong's hand. Everyone knew that Mei Jinlong was equivalent to the leader at this time. position, seeing this thing is like seeing the master, everything must be surrendered to him.
Mei Jinlong was a little flattered after receiving this gift and didn't know what to do. He kept pushing back and said: "Master, please take back this master's token immediately. Since I joined the Kongtong Sect, I have not had any meritorious deeds. In terms of qualifications and talents, All the brothers and sisters are stronger than me, how can I easily accept this token of the leader, and who can sincerely submit to me? I absolutely cannot accept this token."
When all the disciples were passing on the leader's tokens, they began to lose their temper, whispering to each other, and talking about it. They were all dissatisfied with Mei Jinlong. Getting them to surrender to him wholeheartedly was even harder than climbing to heaven. Later, I heard that When Mei Jinlong said this, he felt that he had foresight, and he breathed a sigh of relief and beamed with joy. I hope that I am the one who gets this token, and from now on I will be the leader of the Kongtong Sect and become a famous person in the world.
Luo Binkui looked at their superficial expressions and sneered: "I handed this leader's token to Mei Jinlong today. Everyone must be dissatisfied with it. If any of you have the courage and ability to serve as the leader of the Kongtong Sect, Master, please boldly come forward and recommend yourself, so that I can clearly see your abilities and whether you are truly suitable to be the master and lead all the disciples."
When all the disciples heard this, their hearts were ready to move, but in the end, no one dared to stand boldly next to Luo Binkui, fearing that they would make a fool of themselves in public and not be able to get down the stairs.
Luo Binkui looked at them for about a cup of tea. He didn't see a single disciple who could bravely walk out of the crowd and come to him. He was extremely disappointed with all the disciples and suddenly laughed wildly. All the disciples laughed wildly at this. His heart was shaken and stinging, "I didn't expect that everyone is as timid as a mouse, cowardly and incompetent, but they have been coveting the position of the leader of the Kongtong Sect for a long time. If they have this thief heart but not the thief courage, if I will teach this leader’s token to any one of you. If you face a powerful enemy, how will you face a strong enemy? It’s really heart-wrenching! I don’t think there is any other candidate besides Mei Jinlong.”
None of the disciples had any objections. They lowered their heads and remained silent.
Luo Binkui showed his face and smiled and said: "If you remain silent now, you have agreed." Then he said in a loud voice: "Mei Jinlong listens to the order. I will pass on this leader's token to you today. If anything happens to me while I'm here, you will be Kongtong." The thirty-fourth generation leader is appointed. This token represents the leader. If there are other disciples who disobey the command, they can be killed first and then reported. It is all their own fault and no one else can be blamed."
Mei Jinlong knelt on the ground with his legs, his hands kept shaking, and the token in his hand kept shaking, and he said in a trembling voice: "Master, you'd better take this token back! I really don't have the ability to take charge of this position. , unable to call on all disciples to work together to carry forward the sect.”
Luo Binkui sighed and said: "You are as cowardly and timid as them, so you can't accept such a big responsibility. It really chills me, but the matter must not have reached that outcome. For the time being, you can keep this token of the leader for me. Handle some affairs in this sect. If you can come back safely this time, you can return this token. If you can't come back safely, you can naturally take the position of leader. By then, all the brothers will respect you. I will look at you with admiration, wait and see, and I will naturally be convinced by you. In fact, no one can accomplish anything great in a smooth sailing. He has to go through a lot of setbacks before he can become a master and be praised by generations. Even if you refuse to accept this master this time Token, even if there is no such catastrophe in the world, my master will one day grow old and pass away, and I will choose a person with both ability and political integrity among you to take the position of leader and shoulder this heavy burden." Luo Binkui said sincerely. I want him to understand the truth and accept this token of the leader's gift so that he can feel relieved.
Mei Tielong slowly raised his head and saw Luo Binkui's expectant eyes. Then he turned his head and looked at all the fellow apprentices with their heads lowered. They were weak and timid. They had to have a strong shield to carry this so-called The strong leader will not bow his head in this catastrophe, and will be able to make the Kongtong Sect flourish. No matter what the other brothers think, for the sake of the interests of the Kongtong Sect, they will not give up even if they are broken into pieces. No matter what. He reached out to take the leader's token and said: "Master, you must come back safely and make sure nothing goes wrong. I will keep this for you first, and I will return it to you when you come back."
Luo Binkui no longer looked melancholy, and said with a smile on his face: "Tie Long, please get up quickly. This time, my master is really at ease. There are no more worries about the consequences. I am really relieved that you can share such a heavy responsibility for the master." !
But we are very confident that we will return triumphantly and prepare a celebration banquet then? "After saying this, he returned to his seat next to Liu Qiankun.
Liu Qiankun saw that every sect leader had finished explaining what they had to explain and had returned to their original position. The only person who didn't talk to his family now was Liu Qiankun. At this time, Liu Qiankun was feeling uneasy. He didn't know what to say to them. He just stayed silent without saying anything, with anxiety and uneasiness on his face. presented on.
Mei Zhilin slowly walked up to Liu Qiankun and said, "Don't you have anything to say to us when you go? Are you just willing to leave me in such a hurry? I think you must have a lot to say to me. It’s just hard to put into words.”
Liu Qiankun nodded silently and said: "Zhilin, actually I do have a lot to say to you, even more than ten million words." At this point, he began to choke on his words, tears fell suddenly, and his heart hurt like a knife.
Mei Zhilin knew the pain in his heart at this time. She would rather bear the pain by herself and bear it completely by herself. Her lips trembled slightly and she said bitterly: "Oh my god! Why on earth is this, why?" We have only been together for less than a few days, and they are ruthlessly torn apart like this, leaving you alone and risking your life, even risking your life. This time I will go with you no matter what, whether life or death. I want to be with you and never be separated!"
Liu Qiankun said: "Zhilin, what are you talking about? We have been separated for twenty-five years, and we can meet again. This is God's favor for us lovers. I don't want you to do it this time." The disputes in the rivers and lakes involve risking your life. I don't want you to sacrifice your life for this. Even if I can't come back safely, it is the most gratifying thing in my life that you can live in peace and grow old. "
Mei Zhilin wiped the tears on her face and said: "Even if something happens to me, I cannot live alone in this world. With this skill, I will fight to the death with the Supreme Being of the Western Region and die together."
Liu Qiankun said: "Zhilin, I know you are a deeply affectionate person. You shouldn't do this for me. I am even more worried about you with your thoughts. How can I bravely face those powerful enemies?"
After speaking, he beckoned Liu Qibao and the others to come to him. Liu Qiankun and the others saw Liu Qiankun waving and knew that he was calling them over. The three of them trotted to him. Liu Qiankun patted Liu Qibao on the shoulder and said : "Xiaobao, we call on all the sects to participate in the challenge this time. Life and death are at stake, and misfortunes are unpredictable. Xiaobao, you are the eldest son of our Liu family. From now on, you will be the pillar of this family. The reputation of the Liu family depends on you. maintain."
Liu Qibao nodded and said: "Don't worry, Dad, I will shoulder the responsibility of what you told me. No matter what happens in the future, I will shoulder this heavy burden without hesitation and restore the reputation of our Liu family."
Liu Qiankun said: "I am very satisfied with what you said, but I have one more thing to tell you, that is, your Aunt Mei and Xiao Yuan. After I leave, you and your sister will regard her as your mother." Wait, as for Xiao Yuan, although she is not born from the same father and mother as you, she is born from the same father and mother as you, and she is also of the Liu family. You must not look at her in a strange way, no We love each other and regard her as a sister."
Liu Qisi said: "I keep these words in my heart, dad. We promise you that we will never have any second thoughts about Xiao Yuan. Besides, we have long regarded her as our sister, and Aunt Mei has long thought that she is the first member of our Liu family." I’m a member.”
Liu Qiankun looked at the sky and said: "It's getting late, and I've finished what I should say. We must remember that if our various sects are in trouble, we must unite the forces of various factions to invade the Western Regions. Only in this way can our sect exist for a long time.”
Liu Qibao asked in a questioning tone: "If the power of your older generation is weakened, what strength will we, the younger generation, have to compete with the strong men of the Western Region Supreme?"
