As soon as these words came out, Master Sha's face suddenly darkened.
Some things cannot be solved by a big person coming forward.
That's the bottom line of being a human being.
The Sha family could have taken a step further over the years, but the head of the Sha family has always adhered to many bottom lines to prevent the Sha family from taking a step forward. However, this did not gain any benefits, but instead caused a lot of trouble.
Gu Xiaotian saw the hesitation of Patriarch Sha and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Patriarch Sha, this is just a policy based on the interests of the moment. If Patriarch Sha doesn't want it, I won't force it."
Gu Xiaotian has never thought of forcing people to death.
He has also prepared two plans. If the Sha family is unwilling, they can only take one risk.
However, Gu Xiaotian did not mention the adventure.
But he already has a good impression of the Sha family in his heart. After waiting for the matter to be completed, if he can help in the future, he will help. In this world, it is better to have more families like the Sha family.
Sha Ping saw that her father had not made a decision, so she whispered a few words into his father's ear.
The head of the Sha family raised his head and looked at Gu Xiaotian, with mixed feelings in his eyes.
After a while, the head of the Sha family suddenly asked: "If my Sha family doesn't agree, will it be a little troublesome for you?"
Gu Xiaotian put on a relaxed look, waved his hand and said: "Of course there will be some trouble, but it doesn't matter."
But the more this happened, the more convinced the head of the Sha family became that if he disagreed, the young man in front of him would never force it, let alone talk about the troublesome things that would happen later.
The Sha family will still be the Sha family, but another person is trapped in the center of the whirlpool.
The head of the Sha family suddenly turned around, faced the spiritual tablets, knelt on the ground, and knocked hard on the ground. Blood flowed from the top of his head. He faced the spiritual tablets and said loudly: "The ancestors of the Sha family continue, the tenth of the Sha family The third head of the family, Sha Liang, has violated the precepts of our ancestors today. If all the ancestors have any blame, please wait until Sha Liang goes to hell to atone for his decision at this time!"
After that, there were three loud bangs.
Every time he kowtowed, there was a muffled sound, and the head of the Sha family was already stained with blood, but until the last kowtow, his head did not rise for a long time.
Sha Liang knelt on the ground and said softly: "My Sha family is willing to lend a helping hand to the Heaven and Earth Alliance and join the Ten Thousand Demons Association."
Gu Xiaotian stepped forward, helped Sha Liang up, brushed off the dust on his clothes with his hands, saluted and said, "The Lord of the Sha family is righteous!"
Sha Liang's eyes obviously dimmed a lot, and he probably still couldn't accept it for a while. He just forced out a bitter smile, said a few words casually, and waved his hand for Sha Ping to see her off.
Sha Ping sent Gu Xiaotian to the door. Gu Xiaotian made some remarks and planned to say goodbye and leave.
As soon as Gu Xiaotian turned around, Sha Ping shouted softly from behind.
Gu Xiaotian turned around and asked, "Miss Sha, is there anything else?"
Sha Ping hesitated and hesitated for a long time, but still did not speak.
Gu Xiaotian could also see what Sha Ping was thinking, so he invited her, "If it's not convenient for Miss Sha to speak here, why don't we talk somewhere else?"
…
…
To change places, as the name suggests, go to that inn.
Now the shopkeeper of that inn is already very familiar with Gu Xiaotian, and knows that even Xu Miao and Sun Dayong talk down to him despite his young age.
People who run inns don't have much eyesight.
Sun Dayong was also in the inn at this time, and he became even more confused when he saw that what his ancient brother brought was actually the daughter of the Sha family.
In this situation, the Sha family is said to be the only family that explicitly rejects the Ten Thousand Demons Association. That was to the point where Sun Dayong would give them a thumbs up.
And thinking about the previous instructions of the ancient brother, is this ancient brother really a member of the Ten Thousand Demons Association, and he was deceived by him?
Sun Dayong shook his head, that's all. It's better not to guess what the warrior is thinking.
I hope I don't really get deceived.
After Sha Ping sat down, she was no longer so nervous. This was probably because Gu Xiaotian had been chatting with her about some family disputes along the way and seemed relatively amiable.
After Gu Xiaotian poured her a cup of tea, he smiled and said, "Miss Sha, you've been holding it in all this time. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Sha Ping slowly exhaled and asked: "I just want to ask you one thing. Our Sha family only temporarily joins the Ten Thousand Demons Association, right?"
Gu Xiaotian nodded, "Of course."
"Then if this battle is won by the Ten Thousand Demons Association, if my Sha family insists on withdrawing, will you protect it or not?"
Sha Ping's eyes were burning, looking forward to the answer.
Gu Xiaotian choked on his words for a moment. Admittedly, he was still a little negligent in some things.
For example, he had not considered the current issue.
Seeing Gu Xiaotian's hesitation, Sha Ping also felt a thump in her heart.
As the only descendant of the Sha family, she is still a woman. It is already very difficult to establish a firm foothold in the city and establish a reputation. Moreover, her father's health is getting worse day by day. If this battle against Ten Thousand Monsters really happens, If she wins, her father will probably not be able to survive this level. Then all the affairs of the Sha family will be on her shoulders, and she will have to find a way out for herself to save the entire Sha family.
Gu Xiaotian didn't answer for a long time. Obviously, he couldn't give an answer to this question.
After a while, Sha Ping stood up slowly and said in a low tone: "I know the answer, and I have said ugly things beforehand. If such a day comes, the Sha family will only protect themselves."
When Sha Ping walked to the door of the room, Gu Xiaocai shouted: "Miss Sha, stay here."
Sha Ping looked back, and Gu Xiaotian stood up, took off his Gu family badge, handed it to Sha Ping, and said with a smile: "Although I can't promise you anything about that matter, if the Ten Thousand Demons Association really wins, , you can go to Kyoto with this Gu family token, and then the Gu family will find a way to protect the Sha family."
Sha Ping took the token, her face looked better, and she thanked her gently.
Gu Xiaotian also smiled slightly and asked: "I am curious, what did you say in the ears of Family Master Sha just now?"
At that time, Patriarch Sha was hesitant, but it was only after Sha Ping said a few words that Patriarch Sha agreed.
Sha Ping smiled and said: "I told father, if you are unreliable, I will find a way to send the entire Sha family to Kyoto, and then find the Gu family, so that your Gu family can protect our Sha family."
Gu Xiaotian laughed, a little speechless.
Do you look like that unreliable person?
Gu Xiaotian said with emotion: "Master Sha really gave birth to a good daughter."
Sha Ping bowed slightly, "Thank you for the compliment."
…
…
Things went very smoothly after that.
Regarding Xu Miao, Gu Xiaotian had to praise him. If his mind could be straightened out and he became an official in the court, he would probably be a very capable official.
In the past two days, he had neatly integrated all the subordinates of the Ten Thousand Demons Society in the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Households into his own team.
After some symbolic resistance, the Sha family finally reluctantly agreed.
Xu Miao couldn't figure out how the Sha family, who had always been a tough guy, could agree so freely. At first, he thought it was a scam. Later, he felt at ease after hearing from his servants that Gu Xiaotian personally went to the Sha family. Come down.
If you don't say that you are an adult, you can chew off this hard bone, but you are still far behind.
Gu Xiaotian hasn't gone anywhere in the past two days, but has been recharging his energy.
Now that what he hoped to happen was happening in the city, all that was left was to wait.
In the afternoon of this day, Gu Xiaocai slowly walked out of the inn.
It is now the fifth day, and there are only two days left before the time on the letter.
Gu Xiaotian and Xiao Yinyin came to Xu Mansion together. Xu Miao was a little surprised, but still welcomed Gu Xiaotian in with a smile.
However, Xu Miao was murmuring in his heart.
It was agreed to be five days before, but it has only been three days, why did the master come to the door?
Could it be that the adults are dissatisfied with what I have done?
Now in this city, Xu Miao is not afraid of anyone, only Gu Xiaotian.
His current status was given by Gu Xiaotian, and he was afraid that if he made Gu Xiaotian unhappy, his fate would probably be the same as that of Wei Shi and Fan Cheng.
After entering the house, Xu Miao carefully poured a cup of tea for Gu Xiaotian and Xiao Yinyin, and stood aside obediently, not daring to speak.
Gu Xiaotian scratched his face, looked at Xu Miao's appearance, and said amusedly: "Now in this city, you are considered a prominent figure, why are you still so reserved?"
Xu Miao said with a naive smile: "Your Majesty, you are serious. Xu's status and status are all given by your Majesty. Xu is not even as good as one of your little fingers."
Gu Xiaotian waved his hands, refusing to listen to these flattery words, and asked, "Have all the things you were told been done?"
Xu Miao nodded repeatedly, immediately walked to the back of the bookshelf, opened the secret compartment, took out a thick volume of documents and presented it to Gu Xiaotian with both hands.
Gu Xiaotian took it and looked through it casually for a few times, then looked at Xu Miao with some surprise.
This guy is really reliable in his work. He has a thorough understanding of everyone's life. I really don't know how he does it.
Gu Xiaotian put the document aside, nodded and said: "Well done, I came here today to inform you that from now on you will hand over to her directly without having to go through me."
After speaking, Gu Xiaotian pointed to Xiao Yinyin next to him.
Xu Miao immediately saluted Xiao Yinbank: "I have met you, sir!"
Xiao Yinyin cleared her throat and lowered her voice deliberately: "You and I must cooperate well from now on, but we must not let you down."
Xu Miao nodded repeatedly, "That's natural, that's natural."
Gu Xiaotian stood up and said: "Xu Miao, someone will be sent from above soon. You will be responsible for handing over to him then, but be sure to inform me."
Paper cannot cover the fire. On the surface, the Ten Thousand Demons Society has the upper hand in the city now, but the deaths of Wei Shi and Fan Cheng are still a mystery. Even if they want to seize power and kill people, is it too much? After some time?
Are they all members of the Ten Thousand Demons Association fighting each other at this juncture?
Obviously, Gu Xiaotian was convinced that Wan Yao would not easily believe that it was as simple as seizing power. However, the real superior of Wan Yao never showed up to trouble Xu Miao. He was obviously delayed by something more important than this. .
But this city will never let go.
Now that that time is getting closer, he will definitely show up.
Xu Miao felt a little strange, why did he need to inform Gu Xiaotian about this matter? Shouldn't the two of them meet first?
But as a subordinate, Xu Miao didn't ask or think too much.
He always kept his posture straight and did whatever the adults said.
In a sense, it can be regarded as a loyal dog.
Some people died, but not completely...
