So fast … Xu Qi 'an frowned. He had not completely convinced the two leaders, Luan Yu and Ba Ji. He had planned to convince them first, then ask them to help him persuade Corpse Gu Division and use the power of the Gu race to suppress them.
But he did not expect You Shi to come so fast, directly controlling the bird corpse to come here.
The bird corpse circled in the sky for a while. Seeing that the situation was stable and the leaders were safe, it glided down, but did not approach them. It looked at Heaven Gu Granny and the others from afar.
"You are captured."
The bird corpse shook the air and spoke in a low and hoarse voice. It was You Shi.
After the child Gu in the zombie was killed, he immediately controlled the bird corpse to check the situation.
The current situation made him heave a sigh of relief.
The biggest advantage of a Corpse Gu Master was that they were always safe. As long as their hiding place was not found, no matter how many puppets were killed, the main body would be safe.
Xu Qi 'an looked at him, and the giant bird controlled by You Shi also looked back calmly.
"We only reached a settlement." Xu Qi 'an said.
You Shi ignored him. His empty, dead eyes turned to look at the Heaven Gu Granny. The latter told You Shi exactly what she had told the leaders.
The giant bird turned its head and looked at Luan Yu and the others. After getting an affirmative answer, it was silent for a while.
"I have no reason to object. If you want to ally with Daibun, that is your business.
"But the alliance between Corpse Gu Division and Cloud State is Corpse Gu Division's business. We will not interfere with each other."
Luan Yu and the others frowned. Gu people always attacked and retreated together, there was no reason for them to fight on the battlefield.
Xu Qi 'an pointed at the zombie beside him and said calmly:
"I don't need you to send troops. As long as you don't ally with Cloud State, I will return this puppet to you. A puppet with a third-grade physique, that should be enough. "
You Shi did not even look at the puppet and sneered:
"You are underestimating my Corpse Gu Division. I have another puppet of the same level."
He was a third-grade poison Gu Master, but limited by his realm, he could only control one zombie of the same level and a few fourth-grade at a time.
If not for that, the one who came just now would not have been a "Six Star God", but another Third Rank.
The Corpse Insect Division was famous for its ability to cultivate and refine corpses, so how could they only have a single Transcendent Realm Walking Corpse? The Grade-3 Undead in the clan was not Wu Fu, but the body of an expert of the Monster Race.
Sure enough, with the hatred that the Corpse Gu Tribe had for Daibun, it was too difficult to make him forget the past … Xu Qi'an had been mentally prepared for this.
Longtu frowned and said in a deep voice,
"Wei Yuan is already dead. Your father's death has long been settled. You Shi, don't let the Corpse Gu Tribe and the Gu Tribe become disunited because of your obsession. "
"The grudge of my father's death is not something that you can forget just because you want to and end just because you want to." You Shi snorted coldly, and his empty and still gaze swept over the group.
"It is you who are disunited with the Gu Tribe. Luan Yu, have you forgotten the clansmen who were captured by Daibun's army and put into the Musical House? Ba Ji, 5,000 clansmen were all killed. Your Poison Gu Tribe is the tribe with the least number of people so far.
"You want to form an alliance with Daibun, but have you ever thought that your clansmen will agree? What about the Strength Gu, the Dark Gu, the Heart Gu, and the Heaven Gu? Many of your clansmen died in the battle of Shanhai Pass. Who on earth is fighting against the will of the Gu Tribe? "
Luan Yu and Ba Ji suddenly looked ashamed. One of them was greedy for Xu Qi'an's body, and the other was greedy for the top-grade poisonous grass and poisonous fruit. They were in a state of struggle and hesitation.
You Shi's words were like a knife stabbing into their hearts, making them hesitate and resist.
Compared with the major forces, the population of the Gu Tribe was pitifully small. But all the clansmen of the Gu Tribe were warriors. Every clansman practiced the Gu Technique, so the fighting capacity of the tribe was extremely strong.
This meant that the leaders could not be like the emperor of the Central Plains, who could kill and seize the lives of ordinary clansmen and take whatever they wanted.
The clansmen were not lambs. If the leader was deserted, the clansmen would seek help from other tribes to overthrow the leader. Or they could simply escape from the Southern Border and live elsewhere.
"Sealing the Gu God is also the top priority of the Gu Tribe, which is more important than personal grievances."
Heart Gu Master Chun Yan said lightly.
Her words interrupted You Shi's aggressive momentum and made him fall into silence for a while.
"This girl is wise and smart, worthy of being a Heart Gu Master …" Xu Qi'an glanced at her and nodded slightly.
You Shi paused and said,
"Well, putting aside personal grievances, just talking about the sealing of the Gu God, we can also seal the Gu God by forming an alliance with Yunzhou. And you all know about the situation of Daibun, so why bet on the obviously weaker side?
"Moreover, if we choose to form an alliance with Yunzhou, our clansmen will only cheer, only feel their blood boiling, and only sharpen their knives. But if we form an alliance with Daibun, we will face the situation of alienation from our clansmen. "
Other than Strength Gu tribe's Longtu, the other leaders frowned and did not speak.
Their wavering and hesitation were written on their faces. You Shi's words not only showed the Gu Tribe's hatred towards Daibun, but also pointed out the disadvantageous situation that they might face if they helped Daibun.
To speak the truth, even if we put aside hatred and simply weighed the pros and cons, if Daibun's situation was really as bad as Ge Wenxuan said, with the help of Buddhism, Yunzhou's Lord would have a higher chance of overthrowing Daibun's imperial court.
With the help of their own forces, it was almost certain that they would succeed.
Longtu saw this and reminded them:
"Don't forget your own situation, if not for Xu Qi'an showing mercy, you would have been dead already."
You Shi glanced at Xu Qi'an and sneered:
"Oh, I forgot, you are now his captives, you can only accept and not refuse."
The leaders glanced at Xu Qi'an and frowned.
The Strength Gu Tribe's brains are really not enough … Xu Qi'an sighed in his heart.
He showed mercy and was willing to sit down and talk with the leaders, not because he wanted to return good for evil, but because he hoped that they would cancel the alliance with Yunzhou's rebel army. Therefore, this "kindness" was a stepping stone.
It was just a bargaining chip to make the leaders of the Gu Tribe willing to sit down and talk.
In the end, he must take out the corresponding benefits, and the Gu Tribe promised not to ally with Yunzhou, or send troops to help Daibun. Not because Xu Qi'an would not kill them.
If it was extortion, he could use the reason of "your lives are in my hands".
But if he wanted the Gu Tribe to sincerely ally with Daibun, he could not use this reason. This kind of threat was only suitable for doing one job and then leaving. If he used it on his allies, they might secretly ally with Yunzhou and stab him in the back.
You Shi looked at Longtu, his empty eyes had no emotion, but his face must be full of disdain and ridicule.
A simple guide could make the stupid Strength Gu Tribe take the bait.
Xu Qi'an's brain worked very fast, and he thought of many possibilities in an instant, including killing the trouble in the cradle.
In their current state, I can't kill the Dark Gu, they are too good at escaping. I can still kill the three leaders of the Heart Gu, Poison Gu, and Emotion Gu, but in this way, the Strength Gu Tribe will not rest until I die … Correspondingly, I have to kill them, so that the Gu Tribe will be completely pushed to the opposite side. In addition, Grandma Heavenly Gu did not interrupt, she was too calm.
Does she trust my character that much? Is she not afraid that I will be forced to a dead end, and really kill them? We had just met, and she didn't know me well, but she was so calm.
Unless she has a trump card, so she is not afraid of me flipping the table.
Xu Qi'an narrowed his eyes and suddenly smiled,
"You may not know, but except for Galo Tree Bodhisattva and a small number of monk soldiers, Buddhism is unable to intervene in the war of the Central Plains, because the Southern Goblin is about to rise. If you don't believe me, the Hundred Thousand Mountains is also in the Southern Border, not far from the territory of the Gu Tribe, you can send people to investigate."
The leaders were slightly stunned, and You Shi suddenly turned his bird head, staring at him with his empty eyes.
Chun Yan nodded slightly, "We will send people to investigate this matter."
If this was true, the situation of the Central Plains was indeed not as certain as Ge Wenxuan said. Even if they did not consider forming an alliance with Daibun, they had to re-evaluate the risk of attacking Daibun.
Xu Qi'an continued,
"A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Although Cloud State is strong, Daibun is indeed troubled by internal and external aggression. But this does not mean that Daibun will lose, otherwise, why would Cloud State send people to persuade the Gu Tribe? "
Seeing that the leaders were deep in thought, Xu Qi'an struck while the iron was hot,
"Under such circumstances, the entry of the Gu Tribe is the key to turning the situation around. If the Gu Tribe and Daibun form an alliance, victory will be in sight. Therefore, the weakness mentioned by the leader of You Shi was not at all.
"What Cloud State can give, so can Daibun. As for the hearts of the Gu Tribe, my promise just now is still valid, I will give a certain amount of top-grade poisonous grass to the Poison Gu Tribe. I will also try my best to satisfy leader Luan Yu's request. "
You Shi sneered,
"That's it? You want to appease the hatred of the Gu Tribe against Daibun with these things? Dream on. "
Ba Ji and Luan Yu were tempted, but they chose to remain silent, because the truth was as You Shi said, top-grade poisonous grass and fruits were not a necessity. For Ba Ji, who did not have much hatred for Daibun, he would certainly agree.
But for the people of the Poison Gu Tribe, this was not enough to appease the hatred of killing half of their people.
As for Luan Yu, it was only because of her own selfish desires. She had a top-grade man sleeping with her to cultivate market Gu, what did that have to do with the sisters in the tribe? Even if Xu Qi 'an took care of ten thousand chickens every day and let the sisters have enough to eat, what did that have to do with the men in the tribe?
"Alright, I understand your difficulties."
Xu Qi 'an revealed his true intentions, he sighed,
"I will not insist on sending troops, I only hope that you can choose to be neutral and give up on the alliance with Cloud State. The things I promised earlier will not change. "
Luan Yu and Ba Ji were stunned, they looked at each other and said almost at the same time:
"Good!"
If they chose to be neutral and not send troops to Daibun, it would be easy, they could use the reason that the situation was not clear and they did not want their tribesmen to die to pacify the tribe.
This would be righteous and would also give the tribesmen a generous reward (Poison Gu).
Xu Qi 'an smiled, from the start, he did not expect Gu tribe to send troops to aid Daibun. The conflict between the two sides was too deep, to the point that Granny Heaven Gu personally came to remind him.
In the situation where both Cloud State and Daibun could satisfy Gu tribe's needs, the possibility of Gu tribe letting go of their past enmity was too low.
Xu Qi 'an's real plan was to force them into submission first, then think of a way to make Gu tribe give up on the alliance with Cloud State.
The so-called sending troops was just a negotiation tactic, they would first raise the price and then lower it like a cliff, creating a feeling of 'we are making a huge profit' and 'this is acceptable'.
It was not over yet, making Gu tribe cancel the alliance was only the first step.
Next, Xu Qi 'an would still want them to send troops, but he would not let all seven tribes of Gu tribe come out. He would use rations as a bargaining chip and invite the experts of Strength Gu tribe to join the battle.
With all kinds of resources and commodities as bargaining chips, he would invite Dark Gu tribe and Heart Gu tribe to join the battle. These two tribes did not have much hatred for Daibun, so it was not difficult to hire them with promises.
Southern Border did not lack food, but it lacked porcelain, tea, silk, books, and other supplies.
As long as he gave them enough, they would eventually agree.
However, Xu Qi 'an still underestimated You Shi's obsession with killing his father.
If he wanted to smoothly complete the plan, You Shi would become an insurmountable obstacle.
If he could not be appeased, the other six tribes would not just stand by and do nothing according to the customs of Gu tribe.
You Shi sneered:
"What you decide is your own business. My Corpse Gu Tribe has decided to ally with Cloud State, no one can stop it. I want to see how many people from Emotion Gu Tribe and Poison Gu Tribe will be willing to follow me. "
Ba Ji and Luan Yu's expressions changed.
The bird turned its head and looked at Xu Qi 'an: "Why don't you try to kill me? Kill me, and the problem will be solved."
"Leader You Shi, what you decide is your own business."
Xu Qi 'an did not panic at all, he said indifferently:
"However, I also have a gift for Corpse Gu Tribe, why don't you take a look at my bargaining chip first?"
If it was Heart Gu and Dark Gu, Xu Qi 'an really could not think of anything that could satisfy the other party. Although the little mare was cute and attractive, it was still a mare, and Chun Yan was also a woman.
It was a mismatch.
Dark Gu needed a hidden place, it did not need to be given by others.
But Corpse Gu Tribe, as the host of the Seven Extinction Gu, Xu Qi 'an was very clear about their needs.
You Shi seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, his tone was full of mockery and disdain:
"No matter what bargaining chip you have, I will not …"
At this time, he saw Xu Qi 'an take out a small jade mirror and turned it upside down.
"Clang!"
A coffin fell out, it shook, and the coffin lid slid out.
Lina covered her nose and retreated. Just a whiff of the smell from the coffin made her dizzy.
Longtu quickly covered Xu Lingyin's face with his fan-like hand and threw her far away.
Inside the coffin, a broken ancient corpse was exposed to everyone's eyes.
It looked like a mummy that had been sleeping for countless years, and it had suffered severe damage. Its sternum and ribs were broken, and its head was also missing.
But You Shi's gaze fell on the ancient corpse and could not move away.
