The night wind blew, and the sound of leaves being blown by the wind could be heard in the darkness.
There was silence for a moment in the darkness, and a low voice came out: "I thought I hid it secretly enough, but I didn't expect it to escape your ears, junior brother."
A figure walked out of the darkness beside Song Xing, and it was Liu Qingshan.
Song Xing looked at Liu Qingshan, the star-browed sword-eyed man in front of him, and had to admit that this third senior brother's temperament alone was that of Tao Quanzhen, and there was no trace of the hostility of the people in the Demon Sect.
"In the middle of the night, Third Senior Brother is so elegant. Are you coming out to admire the moon?"
Liu Qingshan walked up to Song Xing, sighed and said, "When the master encounters such a big event, Qingshan can't do anything, so how can he sleep?"
Song Xing looked at Liu Qingshan, and Song Wenshao's original evaluation of this third disciple came to mind. Although he never competed for the limelight, Liu Qingshan's scheming martial arts was not inferior to that of Bichen.
The foundation of Laojun Temple is in Luoyang. Bichen is in charge of business and Mujiang Yin is in charge of the gang. Only Liu Qingshan does not fight for it. He silently founded Baiyun Temple and got to know high-ranking officials through divination. With the support of these noble people, he was also in Luoyang. It was a prosperous time.
Hearing Liu Qingshan sigh, Song Xing raised his eyebrows: "Oh, could it be that Third Senior Brother is planning to give up the wealth of Baiyun Temple and return to Qingyang Temple, a place of poverty?"
Liu Qingshan looked at Song Xing's young face and said with a wry smile: "Junior brother is joking. Senior brother has exhausted all his efforts to maintain the White Cloud Temple. How dare he covet the position of the leader of Laojun Temple."
Song Xing took a step forward, walked to the edge of the cliff and stood with his back to Liu Qingshan. A slightly cold voice came into Liu Qingshan's ears: "Really, in these years, the first senior brother and the second senior brother have been in charge of the chamber of commerce and the other has been in charge of the chamber of commerce." The Dajiang Gang is stronger than you, Third Senior Brother, both in terms of people and power, haven't you ever thought about surpassing them?"
Liu Qingshan looked up at Song Xing's back, and suddenly had the illusion that he was facing Song Wenshao. He smiled to himself and said, "I know that my abilities are limited. I don't want to say that Master favors you, Junior Brother. Senior brother and second senior brother are far better than me in martial arts. In terms of qualifications and martial arts skills, I don’t dare to have thoughts that I shouldn’t have.”
"Qualifications?" Song Xing sneered and turned around, with an arrogance on his face that Liu Qingshan had never seen before: "In my holy sect, when did seniority need to be considered for the top position? Senior brother, aren't you? Drunk."
The momentum that Song Xing showed in an instant made Liu Qingshan stunned. He looked at Song Xing with a surprised look in his eyes as if he was meeting this junior brother for the first time.
"In terms of seniority, my true teachings have been passed down since the Western Han Dynasty. There is no sect in the Holy Sect that has more seniority than ours. If we were to rank by seniority, how could the Holy Sect be dominated by the Yinkui sect now?"
Song Xing sneered and said: "If this is really what you really think, senior brother, I advise you to go back to Baiyun Temple as soon as possible to guard your one-third of an acre of land!"
Liu Qingshan looked at Song Xing, who was completely different from before, with some surprise, and suddenly realized that all of their senior brothers seemed to look down on the youngest junior brother in front of them.
"Junior brother, you are so courageous. No wonder Master has valued you the most in these years, and even before his death, he believed that you could lead Laojun Guan to continue on its path."
The cunning Liu Qingshan subconsciously flattered Song Xing without leaving a trace. .... As a disciple of Laojun Temple, he naturally would not really have no idea about the position of the temple master.
However, he always likes to make plans before taking action. Although he only owns a Baiyun Temple in Luoyang, he has made friends with noble people over the years, and if he really encounters trouble, he will not be afraid of Bichen and Mu Jiangyin.
But when it came to martial arts, he thought he was not Bichen's opponent, so since he appeared at Qingyang Temple, he tried his best to reduce his presence, trying to let Bichen and Mu Jiangyin rush in front, and he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight.
Tonight, he accidentally saw Rong Jiaojiao going out, so he quietly followed her. Unexpectedly, he heard the conversation between Rong Jiaojiao and Song Xing.
Bichen seemed to have made up his mind to compete for the position of the temple master, so he sent Rong Jiaojiao to try to dispel the idea of young Song Xing being the temple master with the glory and wealth.
After being discovered by Song Xing, he tried to hide his true thoughts, but Song Xing revealed it.
After realizing that the Song Xing in front of them was not the ignorant boy they thought, Liu Qingshan changed her words again.
"Junior brother, I heard the conversation between you and Rong Jiaojiao just now. It seems that Senior Brother Bichen is bound to win the position of Temple Master this time."
Liu Qingshan said to Song Xing with a sincere expression, "But senior brother thinks that you are more suitable to sit in the position of contemporary master than he is."
Song Xing stared at Liu Qingshan with a half-smile, and Liu Qingshan also responded with a smile and sincere eyes.
"Oh, senior brother, why do you know that senior brother Bichen is famous in the Holy Sect in terms of fame and martial arts. Even Rong Jiaojiao said that he is the most suitable person to be the master of this temple."
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Liu Qingshan's mouth: "Is he famous? Junior brother, do you know how he got his famous name?"
Before Song Xing could speak, Liu Qingshan continued: "In order to expand the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce over the years, Bichen has been currying favor with Zhu Yuyan of the Yinkui faction several times, overtly and secretly showing favor to this woman, and this has allowed him to obtain his current family fortune. If If he becomes the master of Laojun Temple, I am afraid that Laojun Temple will be changed into a branch of Yinkui Sect."
Song Xing's heart moved and he asked, "Are you saying that Senior Brother Bichen colluded with the Yinkui Sect? Are you serious?"
Liu Qingshan looked at Song Xing's indifferent eyes and felt a slight tremor in her heart. When the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back a little bit: "It's not inappropriate to say collusion, but the several times he showed his kindness to Zhu Yuyan are true."
Song Xing nodded. As the leader of the eight masters of the Demon Sect, Yin Queen Zhu Yuyan has many soldiers and generals. The Yin Kui sect has a vague tendency to be the first sect of the Demon Sect. Bichen, as a disciple of Laojun Temple, would not hesitate to show her favor to Zhu Yuyan. There is nothing wrong with that.
Seeing that Song Xing was thoughtful and knowing that he couldn't ignite the fire too much, Liu Qingshan changed the topic and said: "Compared to Senior Brother Pichen, I support your succession to the throne more than Senior Brother Pichen. Junior Brother, you have a bright future, and you have Senior Uncle Li as your backer. I think so. Even if the two senior brothers have thoughts that they shouldn't have, they don't dare to do anything to you."
In Liu Qingshan's eyes, with Li Zhenzong's support, Song Xing was really capable of giving Bichen a try.
What he just said to Song Xing was half true and half false, but he was worried that Bichen would collude with the Yinkui sect and betray Laojun Guan's interests. He was somewhat sincere and he never told lies.
Under the moonlight, Song Xing looked at Liu Qingshan and said, "So, among the three senior brothers, you are the most loyal to the master."
Hearing the sarcasm in Song's jargon, Liu Qingshan didn't take it seriously and said with a wry smile: "Although Qingshan is unworthy, he grew up in Laojun Temple after all. Naturally, he doesn't want Laojun Temple to decline."
People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. From another perspective, what Bichen did was to preserve the foundation of Laojun Guan. Liu Qingshan had no position to criticize what he did, which was completely wrong.
After all, under the oppression of Xieji Sect and other sects in recent years, Laojunguan is really not comfortable.
"If the junior brother does not want to hurt the friendship of the senior brother, the senior brother is willing to be the vanguard. The senior brother still has a little respect among the dignitaries in Luoyang City. When the time comes, he can introduce him to the junior brother. In the secular world, wealth is naturally inferior to power. With that, There is certainly no shortage of power, glory, wealth and honor.”
Seeing that Song Xing was silent, Liu Qingshan made another condition. In this case, whether Song Xing and Bichen competed for the temple master, or gave up the position of the temple master, he could give Song Xing a favor.
In a few words, he created an image of himself as a loyal Laojun Guan, and competing for the position of Laojun Guan was also for the benefit of Laojun Guan.
After all, Song Xing holds the Temple Master's token, and his righteousness belongs to him. If he can voluntarily withdraw, or even actively support Liu Qingshan, Liu Qingshan's controllable space will be greatly increased, and he will be more confident in competing for the position of Temple Master. .
