The fire phoenix was afraid that he would mess with himself. In addition, he was sad. He couldn't think so far. He said nervously, "nature is Hui Tian huojiao."

She didn't understand the meaning of each other's words at all.

Before the couple met, Niu Youdao looked on coldly and saw that they were sad and wanted to live and die. I don't know. He couldn't let his game go in vain. He came to remind him. "Don't be nervous and afraid. I'm here for you and for the Kunlin tree. What disrespectful words did I have earlier, but I was angry with the Kunlin tree for making trouble. Now I'm calm and your mood should be stable. Don't worry. I won't mess with you. I'm for your good?"

Hearing what he said, the fire phoenix didn't necessarily believe him, but he was relieved and wiped his tears. "What can I do for elder Niu?"

After asking, Niu Youdao didn't listen at all. Niu Youdao was speechless, but he still smiled and said, "Qian Fucheng wants to take the Kunlin tree. Do you know what happens after the Kunlin tree leaves here?"

The fire phoenix doubted and said, "do you mean that zongmen will severely punish senior brothers?"

Niu Youdao: "Let me remind you again that your elder martial brother has a gambling agreement. The people of the world bank agreed and became the witness of the gambling agreement. No one in the world dares to rely on this account except the ethereal Pavilion. Qian Fucheng could have prevented your elder martial brother from agreeing to the gambling agreement, but he, the elder of Tianhuo sect, not only didn't stop it, but also helped. Can Qian Fucheng shoulder the responsibility?"

The fire phoenix's bright eyes gradually enlarged and seemed to understand something.

Niu Youdao continued: "Tianhuo cult is more than just to severely punish your senior brother. He is as guilty as Qian Fucheng. You should know his purpose to take your senior brother now?"

The fire phoenix hesitated and said, "naturally... Naturally, it's easy to bring back senior brother to make a job?"

Niu Youdao: "What about this bet? As I said, no one dares to rely on this account except the ethereal Pavilion. People in the world's banks will not force anyone to make this bet. Generally, they will not participate in this kind of thing. Under the condition that both sides agree in advance, they both invite people who agree with the bank to come out as middlemen. Both sides have no opinion. The shopkeeper hang That's why it came out. Break the contract? Do you think Tianhuo cult dares to play with Tianxia banks? The bills of Tianxia banks are very hard. All the money in the world flows through Tianxia banks. Tianxia banks rely on reputation. Tianhuo cult dares to damage the reputation of Tianxia banks? "

The fire phoenix wondered and said, "you mean elder qian can't bring his elder martial brother back to Tianhuo sect?"

Niu Youdao said, "it's not that you can't bring it back, but you don't dare to bring it back. There is a guarantee from the world's banks. Tianhuo cult doesn't dare not hand over people. What's the point of taking it back? Finally, you have to hand over people. What do you think elder Qian will do? He would rather keep you as a hostage than take your senior brother away. Why do you say?"

The fire phoenix was startled, "he wants... He wants to be bad for senior brother!"

Niu Youdao nodded slowly. "It's not just bad. I'm afraid it's going to hurt your senior brother! As long as I let people go in Zijin cave, Tianhuo sect didn't break the contract and take them away, Tianxia bank can't take care of it. If your senior brother had an accident on the way, beyond the gambling contract, Tianxia bank won't take care of such chores, and it's none of Tianhuo sect's business."

"Once Tianhuo cult starts to fight your senior brother and is caught, it is proved that Tianhuo cult is breaking the contract. What are the consequences? There are some things that Qian Changlao can do, but Tianhuo cult can't do. At least it can't happen in Tianhuo cult."

"As soon as I let your elder martial brother leave here, your elder martial brother will inevitably encounter an accident. I left your elder martial brother, not to harm him, but to save him!"

The fire phoenix understood and smiled miserably, "save him? You take him as a slave. What's saving him? If you really want to save him, you should laugh off the gambling appointment, let us go back, and give up the gambling appointment. This is the real way to save him. You hold him... Niu Changlao, do you think I'm stupid? Do you want me to be grateful for making our husband and wife like this?"

Niu Youdao said, "can you blame me for what I did to your husband and wife? You know better than anyone who pestered me."

"Also, although I'm a party to the bet, don't forget that I'm the elder of Zijin cave after all. In a big way, such a good handle is in hand. Do you think Zijin cave will let it go for nothing? This has involved the interest dispute between Zijin cave and Tianhuo cult. Zijin cave must take the opportunity to put forward conditions to Tianhuo cult, and the conditions are very high. Zijin cave won't miss such good conditions Do you think I can still decide this now? "

The fire phoenix said angrily, "since you can't be the master, why do you come to me?"

Niu Youdao raised his eyebrows and said, "according to the bet, you are already my slave. Can't my master see my slave?"

The fire phoenix subconsciously leaned back against the wall and cried nervously: "the slave belongs to the slave. I can't promise anything other than the slave!"

Niu Youdao is quite speechless. Do you look like a bad person? Why do you always think about that aspect, "you think too much. I'm here to tell you that I don't want you to fall into the hands of Zijin cave and your husband and wife to become hostages in the exchange of interests between Zijin cave and Tianhuo cult."

The fire phoenix didn't believe it and said with tears: "can you have this kind heart?"

Niu Youdao: "It doesn't matter whether I have good intentions. The important thing is that once the two factions exchange interests... In fact, you should know that it doesn't matter whether you are a slave or a maid. Your life or death is not important to Tianhuo cult. Tianhuo cult wants your elder martial brother back. Tianhuo cult won't let your elder martial brother become a slave. Have you ever thought about this result? Once Tianhuo cult sacrifices huge profits because of your elder martial brother Yi... A master of the supreme secret of Tianhuo sect, who is impulsive and uncontrollable, has also caused great losses to the sect. Have you ever thought about the end of your senior brother when he returns? "

The fire phoenix shook his head with tears. "What are you trying to say?"

Niu Youdao said, "I want to save your senior brother and you. I want to protect you both."

The fire phoenix cried, "you say you can't be the master. Why can you protect us?"

Niu Youdao said, "I can't guarantee whether I can keep you. I can only do my best. I just want you to know why I don't let your senior brother be taken away by Qian Fucheng. I'll try my best to save your lives. If you still want your senior brother to live, I hope you can cooperate with me when necessary. With your cooperation, I'll be more confident in protecting your husband and wife."

The fire phoenix wiped his tears and thought about his words, "how do you want me to cooperate?"

Niu Youdao turned and walked away. He said calmly, "I'm not sure now. It's useless to say more. I'll see what happens then. I just want to remind you first. Of course, if you don't want your senior brother to live, I'll hand you over to Zijin cave and let the two factions deal with you."

The fire phoenix stopped talking and finally shouted, "why? I don't believe you can help us for no reason. I don't believe you can have such a kind heart."

"How could it be for no reason? You are my servant and my people. My people are at the disposal of others. I have no face. I will stay here soon. How can people easily sweep my face?" Niu Youdao stopped to explain.

Is that so? The fire phoenix is skeptical.

"If you want your senior brother to die miserably, you just need to pass a word. If you ask for death yourself, I won't bother any more." Niu Youdao threw his back at him and went out of the door, which closed with a creak.

The fire phoenix with tearful eyes against the wall was dazed, thinking of Niu Youdao's words.

Niu Youdao, who came out of the door, smelled the familiar smell of fragrant powder. When he turned around, he saw Guan Fangyi hiding by the door against the wall, shaking the round fan in his hand and laughing.

Unlike before, Guan Fangyi often yelled and cursed words like taking my mother around as a thug.

It's different now. No matter where Niu Youdao goes, she always wants to get close and see what Niu Youdao wants.

Niu Youdao walked down the steps.

With one foot on the wall, Guan Fangyi's skirt swung against the wall, shook the round fan, followed up quickly, and asked in a low voice, "you won't say those words for no reason. What do you want to do?"

Niu Youdao: "you heard it all. Didn't I make it very clear?"

Guan Fangyi pouted, turned her eyes, and slapped the fan behind Niu Youdao. It was obvious that she was cursing and annoying!

In those days, Niu Youdao always felt frightened. Now she is at ease. Where Niu Youdao is, she is not afraid of any big storm. Her status is not comparable when she was in Fufang garden in Qijing. Now there is no need to laugh at people or worry about all kinds of complex forces in Qijing. Nowadays, few people dare to be rude to her.

Niu Youdao has never restricted her freedom. She lives very well now.

Not only she, but also many people around Niu Youdao have the same feeling and mentality.

In their eyes, Niu Youdao is their Taoist master, not only a polite verbal address, but also the misfortune, blessing, honor and disgrace of a group of people in the practice world.

Just out of the yard, Chen guishuo trotted to report: "Lord Tao, there are people in Guimian Pavilion."

Once a disciple of the Shangqing sect, once a senior brother of Niu Youdao, he has changed his mouth long ago.

When Chen guishuo repeatedly recalled the past, he often secretly lamented that when he helped song Yanqing, song Yanqing died and the Song family collapsed. When he ran to beizhou, Shao Pingbo collapsed and fled to the state of Jin. As for the emperor of the upper Qing Dynasty, the ancestral court was lost and reduced to the state of Wei. Looking at himself, he seems to be better than others of the emperor of the upper Qing Dynasty. Now he is actually mixed in the Zijin cave that the emperor of the upper Qing Dynasty had to look up to Inside, I have to sigh that nature makes people!

"Guimian Pavilion..." Niu Youdao was stunned. He had been in Zijin cave for some time. The people in Guimian Pavilion didn't seem to have paid any attention to him. This time, they took the initiative to find him. They didn't know what was going on. After thinking about it for a while, they couldn't figure it out, so they said with some doubt: "please."

"Yes!" Chen guishuo hurried away.

After a while, ju'an came with a rattan basket in his hand. After coming, he came forward to salute the cow, "martial uncle."

Niu Youdao looked at what was in his basket. It was a basket of golden fruits and asked, "what are you looking for me, but the master wants to find me?"

Ju'an said with a smile, "no, Shizu is quiet and won't move. I just saw a wild fruit on the back mountain. It's quite fresh. It's a local characteristic and rare. I think Shishu hasn't tasted it yet, so I brought it to Shishu on the way."

"Oh!" Niu Youdao doubted.

Juan put down the fruit basket and respectfully left.

"Just to send a fruit?" Guan Fangyi muttered.

Niu Youdao reached out and took a fruit from the fruit basket. He put it in front of his nose and smelled the fragrance of the fruit. He gradually showed a thoughtful look, and gradually looked back at the direction of Guimian Pavilion.

PS: ashamed, ashamed, I should be able to resume the normal update in another two days.
