Zhou Hao waited for the demon sect's banquet to end, and then followed the two demon sect leaders to their place. On this small island, everyone has their own separate space. As the former leader and saint, Xiao Zhao and her
The masters naturally have their own place.
This place is different from the guest room Zhou Hao stayed in before. This place can be regarded as a stronghold of the demon sect. If it weren't for his unusual status, there would be no chance of entering.
Although Zhou Hao was a distinguished guest of the Demon Sect before and was also a key figure in this turnaround, he was not a member of the Demon Sect after all. He could only live in the guest room before, but it is different now. He also cannot be considered a member of the Demon Sect, but
If he wanted to enter this place, no one would raise any objections.
Xiao Zhao now has unprecedented concentration of power in the Demon Cult. Although he has only just taken over the position of leader, he is now very obedient and obeys Xiao Zhao's orders, not only because of Zhou Hao's threat, but also because of Xiao Zhao's own charm.
.
The reason why Zhou Hao came here with the former leader and Xiao Zhao is also a symbol of recognition. Everyone knows that outsiders who can enter the leader's palace must be distinguished guests of the future demon sect. In fact, it is not surprising to say that if Zhou Hao hadn't
With Hao's help, Xiao Zhao still has the position of leader. Even if the third uncle cannot successfully usurp the throne, at least the demon sect will be torn apart.
When the three of them returned to the room of the former leader of the Demon Cult, there was no one here. Everyone knew that these three people were together and there must be something confidential to say, so naturally they would not be an eyesore here.
"Zhou Hao, there are no outsiders now. I can tell you the truth with peace of mind. In fact, I no longer want to be a leader. My career as a leader for so many years has really distracted me too much. I don't have the patience to study martial arts. Now I will pass on the position to you."
Giving it to Xiao Zhao is actually a good thing for me, but I have to thank you for your help in this matter." As soon as he entered the room, the former leader of the Demon Sect had already expressed his gratitude to Zhou Hao.
"Master, you are too polite. Isn't this what I should do? We are all one family." Zhou Hao smiled and said very politely.
"Don't call me leader anymore. My name is Liu Hongmei. Why don't you call me Aunt Hong or Aunt Mei? I guess it's not a big deal if you call me. I won't be much younger than your mother."
Former cult leader Liu Hongmei heard Zhou Hao's words and did not refute. Zhou Hao was Xiao Zhao's man after all, and it was appropriate to do something for the Demon Cult. She just corrected her title.
The reason why the previous demonic sect could not enforce orders and prohibitions was because the elders were too powerful and threatened the leader's rule. Now that everything has developed in a good direction, Liu Hongmei naturally has to follow the rules. Since she is not the leader of the demonic sect, she should not
Being called the leader.
Zhou Hao also understood what Liu Hongmei was thinking. He just saw that the leader of the Demon Cult was so young and beautiful, and some people would believe her even if she said she was thirty years old. However, he looked more mature, about twenty-five or six years old. If he could call her aunt now, what would he do?
I'm really embarrassed, but she is Xiao Zhao's master after all. According to her seniority, it's not an exaggeration to call her.
Zhou Hao was hesitant for a moment. Fortunately, Xiao Zhao was very smart and saw that it was a bit awkward to call each other this way. He smiled and said: "Master, how can you be Zhou Hao's aunt? No matter how you look at it, you can't be Zhou Hao's aunt."
She's just a few years older than him."
After a pause, he said very simply: "How about this, Zhou Hao, just call me Master Sister. No one will doubt me in front of outsiders."
Before Liu Hongmei could agree, Zhou Hao had already nodded and said: "Okay, I'd better call you Sister Mei. The way you look now, you are really a few years older than me. If I ask you to call you Aunt, don't call you Sister."
As I get older, I am also suspected of pretending to be young, so calling me sister makes me seem more approachable."
Since Liu Hongmei can be the leader of the Demon Cult, she is naturally not a pedantic person. After listening to what the two said, she did not refute, but just smiled and said: "Okay, then it's up to you. You are more than ten years younger for no reason."
"Master, please stop talking. If you say you are my sister now, no one will doubt you. They don't even know how you have maintained yourself for so many years. I have long been very jealous. If I reach your age, I will definitely not be as good as you."
You look young, but what will you do when you are old and yellow?" Xiao Zhao was talking to Liu Hongmei with a smile, but his eyes were looking at Zhou Hao. Obviously, the following words were addressed to Zhou Hao.
Zhou Hao understood this in his heart, and smiled secretly in his heart, but said very seriously: "This is a problem. When the time comes, when you are old and yellow, and your martial arts are not good enough, who can like you anymore!"
"Master, look, Zhou Hao is bullying people again. Isn't it because his martial arts is better? What's so great? Hum, I can also practice internal skills now. I will definitely improve my strength as soon as possible. Don't think that the top masters are powerful. I
It can definitely be achieved." Xiao Zhao wrinkled his little nose and hummed.
Zhou Hao and the leader of the Demon Cult looked at each other and smiled. How many people dream every day to reach the realm of supreme masters, but there are very few people who can achieve this realm. Otherwise, masters would not be so important. But in Xiao Zhao's words,
She seems to be able to reach the realm of the ultimate master if she wants to, which is really dumbfounding.
However, considering Xiao Zhao's qualifications, if he really wants to practice hard, he may not be able to reach this state after many years. However, they all know that Xiao Zhao's current state is too far away from the top masters.
The two of them did not dampen his enthusiasm. Liu Hongmei first changed the subject and said: "Zhou Hao, now that he has resigned as the leader, he can focus on practicing martial arts from now on. However, I have been practicing for many years and I just can't get close to the top masters.
, I want you to help me find out what's going on, and whether it's because I'm not qualified enough."
Zhou Hao nodded and did not refuse Liu Hongmei's request. He nodded happily. He believed in Liu Hongmei's character. If she became a top expert, she would only be Xiao Zhao's best helper and would definitely not have any impact on her.
When Liu Hongmei was the leader of the cult, she was actually the strongest in the congregation. At that time, she was able to make the power of her uncle and third uncle grow, which actually showed that she was a kind-hearted person, otherwise there would be no such disaster.
, her feelings for Xiao Zhao were very sincere, and she did not hesitate at all when passing on the throne. In fact, in Zhou Hao's opinion, if Liu Hongmei was born in other martial arts sects, she might have achieved good results, but now she almost became a demon sect.
The last leader of the church.
Thinking that it would not hinder the conversation between him and Liu Hongmei, he hesitated and said: "Sister Mei, please find a quiet place now and don't be disturbed by others. I will check it for you. This process will take a while.
.”
Liu Hongmei said to Xiao Zhao without hesitation: "Xiao Zhao, it just so happens that you are now the leader of the Demon Cult. I have something to tell you. I will take you to see it now. From now on, these will all belong to you. My thoughts
We are all studying martial arts and will no longer interfere with academic affairs. If you have something to do, come to me. If you have nothing to do, you don’t have to come to me."
Xiao Zhao nodded and did not refuse. She is a very sensible girl and now is not the time to discuss useless things.
As an outsider, Zhou Hao actually doesn't want to get involved in confidential matters like theirs. After all, he has already said that he will not interfere in the affairs of the demon sect. In this case, he should keep a certain distance from them. After all, Xiao Zhao and himself are very close.
, Liu Hongmei didn’t have that much contact with herself.
Liu Hongmei saw Zhou Hao's hesitation and said to him: "Zhou Hao, you don't have to think too much. Since I brought you here, I'm not afraid of you knowing too much. To be honest, if it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be sitting in this position today.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be Xiao Zhao. After all, you can be regarded as our benefactor, there is no need to avoid you, and I believe you."
People have said everything to this point. If Zhou Hao still can't accept it, it would be a bit ignorant. Anyway, it would do no harm to him to know more about things, so Zhou Hao remained silent.
Liu Hongmei knew that he no longer thought about it, and walked to her bed under the gazes of Xiao Zhao and Zhou Hao. Although most of the buildings here were made of wood, the residence of the leader of the Demon Cult was obviously stronger than the others.
Apart from being made of wood on the outside, everything inside is actually made of stone. The bed of the leader of the Demon Cult is just a stone bed. If it weren't for the thick covering, Zhou Hao would not believe that she could sleep comfortably.
She came to her bed and groped around on it for a while. Suddenly there were two "click" sounds, and a tunnel appeared on the ground near the foot of the bed, a dark hole extending all the way down to the ground.
Zhou Hao was originally an agency master. He never thought there was an agency here before, but now that he saw Liu Hongmei’s approach, he immediately knew what it was. He couldn’t help but smile and said: "Sister Mei, you really follow the tradition here.
In accordance with some ancient traditions, I installed a mechanism in my room, and it looks quite exquisite."
Liu Hongmei originally thought that Zhou Hao would be surprised, but she found that not only was he not surprised, but his eyes flickered, as if he could see his own tricks, which made her surprised.
Xiao Zhao also looked at Zhou Hao in surprise. She knew Zhou Hao far better than her master. The way Zhou Hao looked now, he was definitely confident. He was obviously not just talking casually, but really understood his master's tricks.
, but this was the first time for Xiao Zhao to see this mechanism. How could Zhou Hao know about it?
With doubts in his mind, Xiao Zhao asked quickly: "Husband, can you understand what the master just did?"
Zhou Hao smiled and didn't say much. Instead, he walked over and fumbled a little at the place where Liu Hongmei had just fumbled. With a slight click and twist of his fingers, the floor that had just been opened closed again.
Xiao Zhao was not that good. After all, she didn't know how sophisticated this mechanism was. Liu Hongmei, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes.
She knew this mechanism very well. When the master taught her step by step, she still had to learn it for a long time. It was a matter of opening and closing, which required special techniques. If she had not learned it, she would not be able to open or close it at all. This was also
Don't worry about others, even if they see it they won't be able to open it.
But now Zhou Hao has no study at all. He just glanced at it casually and closed the mechanism. What kind of skill is this.
"Sister Mei, Xiao Zhao, in fact, to put it bluntly, mechanism theory is just the use of mechanical springs. No matter how it is designed, as long as you understand the setting principle of this kind of thing, there is no mystery. This mechanism is just different from other mechanisms.
The mechanism is a little more clever, and people who don't understand it can't open and close it at all." Seeing the two women looking at him in surprise, Zhou Hao smiled slightly.
"Husband, how do you still understand the mechanism? You are such a monster. You are obviously young, but you know everything!" Xiao Zhao was close to him and did not shy away from speaking. He exclaimed.
Although Liu Hongmei didn't say anything, her eyes were full of amazement. This boy was truly unparalleled in terms of martial arts, study, and business skills. Now he actually knows such an unsophisticated machine learning, and he can still do it.
I really don't know what he can do.
Zhou Hao didn't say much, but he thought about his two lives. If his age in the previous life was included, even if he was not as good as Liu Hongmei, he was already much older than Xiao Zhao.
"It's nothing. I just learned some things about mechanics during our unintentional adventures. After I finish solving the problem with He Hongsen, I will arrange some things for you to improve the safety factor here.
, otherwise I really don’t trust those people." Zhou Hao spoke very casually and changed the topic smoothly.
Liu Hongmei and Xiao Zhao had something in their minds. Members of the relatively ancient martial arts sect naturally knew how much help the mechanism could bring to the sect, and they would not underestimate the role of those mechanical springs.
Zhou Hao didn't say anything more, but just twisted a few times on the mechanism, and the tunnel appeared in front of the three people again.
No one would be surprised at this time. Since Zhou Hao can see the secret of the mechanism, opening and closing it is naturally not a problem. However, Xiao Zhao is still very curious at this time. What is the secret passage in the bedroom of the demon sect leader?
What, this is something she didn't know about since she was a child.
"Xiao Zhao, now that you are the leader of the Demon Cult, you will live here in the future. It is time to tell you everything here. Let's go down and I will tell you as we go." Liu Hongmei saw Xiao Zhao's curiosity and said,
While leading the way down the tunnel, he said to the two of them.
This secret passage is not full of torches like in ancient times. In modern society, it is natural to use electric lights, which is not only convenient, but also brighter.
There was a row of steps in the tunnel. Xiao Zhao and Zhou Hao couldn't see how deep it was. It was probably quite deep. They just followed Liu Hongmei down step by step.
Zhou Hao doesn't know who built this tunnel. It seems that there are hundreds of steps. Calculating this, they will eventually go hundreds of meters underground. This is an island. It goes so far underground. Zhou Hao really admires the Demon Cult.
For builders here, this is definitely no small project.
