book of troubled times

Chapter 194 Is this what you said you were afraid of?
The two didn't talk much along the way, and soon arrived at the stronghold of the Four Elephants Sect in the city.

This is not a branch of the Four Elephants Sect, and like Jianhu City, it is just a temporary residence, with a large house, mainly because Chi Chi's subordinate Qinglong Dharma Guardian Elder You and others are here.

Seeing a woman in a winged fire snake mask and a vermilion bird robe leading Zhao Changhe in, Elder You and the others' eyes bulged.

Suzaku glared at them, Elder You and the others were sweating profusely, they hung their heads and dared not speak.

Suzaku said: "Guardian You, are the Venerable and the Holy Maiden here?"

"..." Elder You wiped his sweat, "The holy lady is out on business. Your lord, your lord should be in the inner courtyard, right?"

Suzaku was very satisfied with Elder You's awakening, turned to Zhao Changhe and said, "Ask them about Cui Yuanyang's whereabouts, I'll go to the inner courtyard to report to His Holiness, see if she has anything to say to you, don't go away on your own, Disrespectful, it would not be nice for His Holiness to get angry at that time."

Zhao Changhe said helplessly: "Do I look like such a rude person, you just go."

Under Elder You and the others staring at each other, Suzaku went to the inner courtyard and put on the Suzaku mask. After thinking about it, he found another set of sacrificial robes with slightly different patterns to put on, and looked at the bronze mirror.

The Winged Hydra mask covers the whole face, and the lips are also covered, so you can't see anything.

Suzaku's own mask is a half-face, with the tip of the nose ending in the shape of a bird's beak, and the lower lip is painted with fat.

"Sexy lips... what a weird description." Suzaku murmured strangely to himself: "What does this word refer to?"

No matter what it refers to, anyway, the semantics is that it is always right to praise good looks, if you can speak, say more.

Suzaku admired it for a while before strolling out.

When he arrived in the hall, he heard Zhao Changhe's amplified voice: "Going to kill Yang Yang?"

Elder You said: "Uh, we are also worried about the saint, and want to talk to the Venerable about canceling this mission. Cui Yuanyang is surrounded by a cloud of masters at this time, unless we go all out to fight hard... there is no need for this."

"What?" Suzaku walked out coldly, her voice was once again lazy and seductive, but with a biting coldness: "Whether it is necessary or not, is Elder Ni You's decision?"

"Don't dare." Elder You and the others fell to their knees: "I'm worried about the Holy Maiden, even if this battle is successful, it will be very difficult for her to escape. If it must be carried out, I implore the Venerable to go and support it."

In the midst of kneeling down, Zhao Changhe standing there was very eye-catching. Suzaku's eyes fell on him, but it was a little strange his calm attitude: "You have nothing to say?"

Zhao Changhe was taken aback before, but soon calmed down.

How could Chi Chi really do it? Besides, this task is weird, and I suspect that Suzaku is not sincere at all, and most likely it is testing Chi Chi and his old relationship?

Hearing Suzaku's question, Zhao Changhe said: "I believe that your religion will not want their saintess to be a fool who knows she can't do it but wants to die. Based on my understanding of Chi Chi, if this task cannot be completed, I will naturally give up. On the contrary Don’t worry too much. If I have something to say to His Holiness, it’s something else.”

Suzaku said coldly: "Say."

"If Chichi and I have an old relationship, let the saint who has been cultivated by my family risk her life, so regardless of the severity... Then the pattern of the venerable will really disappoint me."

Suzaku stared at him coldly, and Zhao Changhe also looked at him coldly.

Suzaku suddenly wanted to go around behind him to see if he was sweating.

Do you have heart palpitations?
You said you were afraid of me... that's it?
For the sake of Chi Chi's safety, scolding the person he fears most in his heart?
"This seat has its own considerations, don't think that everything is related to yourself, self-righteous." Suzaku finally said lightly: "Of course, just in case, this seat should go to respond immediately. As for you..."

She paused: "The Winged Fire Snake talked to me. I have something to ask you, but you can go with me, and we will talk about it on the way. Let's go."

After speaking, he waved his sleeves and went out first.

Although the attitude was cold, the result was okay, Zhao Changhe really broke out in a cold sweat, and followed out honestly: "Where is the Winged Fire Snake?"

"She's done her mission, so she's off to do other things. What are you asking her for?" Suzaku flew away, sneering, "Could it be that you've fallen in love with her?"

Zhao Changhe chased after him, very speechless: "I'm not sick, and I don't know what I look like. Who can fall in love with a snake? Let me say, my lord, I understand that the senior leaders of your sect can't just talk about feelings. I have been afraid of well ropes for ten years, but don't be nervous about anything, so it won't happen."

Suzaku pretended not to hear what he was saying, acting like you were not qualified to persuade me, and continued to ask: "She said that Wang Daozhong was making trouble for her, and you stood in front of her to confront Wang Daozhong, why?"

Zhao Changhe was very helpless: "She was just ordered to ask me a few questions. She didn't do anything wrong, so why did she call for beating and killing? Because of her identity as the Four Elephant Sect? I don't think there is anything wrong with her identity, at least Compared with the Wang family, the Four Elephant Sect is not necessarily a villain."

Suzaku finally stopped talking, flitted coldly for a while, and suddenly became impatient: "You are too slow."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

Suzaku suddenly reached out and grabbed his collar, Zhao Changhe was grabbed before he even raised the consciousness of resistance, and then disappeared outside the city in an instant.

Suzaku's sneer faintly came from the wind: "If you are so weak, who gave you the confidence to talk eloquently in front of me!"

Zhao Changhe was held by the back of Fate's neck, and he simply held his arms without struggling or refuting.

It is true that she is more efficient, so she went to persuade the fight earlier, but don't really have an accident, she doesn't care about her own face at this moment.

The gap in practice is too big. Although the lightness kung fu taught by Tang Wanzhuang has made up for a lot of shortcomings in this area, but facing Suzaku, it is still not the same.

Including her grabbing and mentioning, she really didn't even have the consciousness to dodge in time, it was too fast.

He is indeed the strongest and most feared person in his mind.

But this time we met, I was not as scared as before. I don’t know why... Although her attitude is still very cold, but inexplicably, she doesn’t seem to be looking down so much. In the past, her gaze was no different from looking at ants. It's not an ant anymore, it's like carrying a cat.

Her attitude seems to be the same, with the same contempt, is the difference in my heart?
Maybe it's because he is now famous?Or is it because of familiarity with Tang Wanzhuang?Tang Wanzhuang's ranking is actually one rank higher than Suzaku's, and he is sick, so once he recovers, he should be much better than Suzaku.After getting acquainted with her and looking at Suzaku again, will there be no fear of looking up at the mountain?
But Suzaku suddenly said: "If I invite you to join the teaching and take the top spot, would you be willing?"

Zhao Changhe came back to his senses and wondered, "What kind of top position?"

"There are still vacancies in the 28 constellations. If you do the corresponding star constellations, you can learn related exercises. And the 28 constellations are also high-level in the teaching, with great authority."

For example, Winged Fire Serpent is vacant, and the mask has not been sent out.

What Zhao Changhe thought of was Wan Dongliu's sudden stab like an underwater poisonous snake at the beginning, and his last slip like an earthworm. Both offensive and defensive ends seemed to be stronger than his water gang skills.

But he still shook his head: "I have failed His Holiness' kindness, and I will not join the religion."

You can clearly feel the tightness of the hand holding the back of the neck, and the murderous intent coming from around you is real: "Why? Do you look down on me, the Four Elephants?"

"No, I have already told Winged Fire Snake that I don't have any belief in gods. Logically, His Holiness shouldn't think that I am suitable for teaching."

Suzaku fell silent.

It is really inappropriate to talk about this point alone, but his other remarks are very appropriate, especially the long-term goal, which can be regarded as a reasonable one.

As for beliefs that can be slowly established, that's not a big problem.

But since he doesn't have faith, he naturally doesn't want to join the religion. Why would a well-known hero in the world bear the identity of a demon cult?This is normal.

What attitude should be used towards him is a question. It is absolutely inappropriate to force him to join the religion, nor is it appropriate to lure him with profit. If he can be lured by profit, he is easy to betray, and those who are not Daoist, the Four Elephant Sect basically does not do this kind of thing.

Therefore, the Four Elephant Sect would rather be deficient than excessive, and the number of people is much worse than that of the Maitreya Sect.Mainly in the form of subordinates and non-staff, like the Blood God Cult, to supplement the shortage of manpower, the core congregation has never been many.At the beginning, Zhao Changhe would not be casually brought into the Four Elephant Sect. The main reason was this, and it was not entirely because of contempt.

This matter still needs to be considered.

While thinking about it, smoke and dust loomed in front of him.

The Cui family's motorcade was there, and the two girls could be seen from a distance, walking side by side, smiling.
