Chapter 454: Mountain Gate

The night, just after darkening, the thick fog spread out layer by layer, and it was a calm and peaceful night, and the white mist was illuminated by the soft moonlight and candlelight, dyeing the house erected in the bamboo forest gold. Under the moonlight, the bamboo leaves "flutter", as if playing a song of the world, graceful and poignant, deep and wonderful, the beating notes seem to jump out of the hazy moonlight, intoxicating.

The moon is in the sky, bright and gentle, the soft moonlight sets off a calm and peaceful night, the light of the moon falls on the trees, falling mottled black shadows, sporadically like broken strips hanging on the trees.

This is the corner of the ancient martial arts sect that I don't know where.

An old man with crane hair stood in front of the door of the house in the bamboo forest, letting the moonlight shine on his face.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed.

The crane-haired old man sat on the ground with his eyes covered by a white cloth, and in front of him knelt on one knee a man in a black night suit.

Judging from the body alone, it should be a woman.

"You're here?" asked the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes, "What happened today?"

"Report to the master, the current core disciples' Hongchen experience is nearing the end, they are working closely with the official people, and the number of new disciples accepted in the coming year should increase. ”

Listening to the person in the black night suit report the situation, the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes did not move: "Go on, finish all the information, and the elders' meeting will be held tomorrow." ”

"Yes, the person who has mastered the Dao seed has come out, it is Donggong Zhizhen, and the list of losers includes Pu Yuanyuan, Jing Ying, Ling Jiaxin, ......"

The crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes waved his hand and said, "After tomorrow, bring these losers into the stone mountain to be disciples of the mountain protectors, and at the same time treat their families preferentially." ”

"Yes, now the sect's fiscal expenditure and revenue are in deficit, mainly due to the official opening policy, we need to consider reintegration, but this time the core disciple's Hongchen experience has improved the deficit situation......

"Hmm," the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes replied simply, "Now these things will be handed over to these young people, they are the future of our ancient martial arts, the next one." ”

"Yes, the current task completion rate of the disciples of the sect is five percentage points higher than the success rate of previous years, mainly because of the incentive effect of the opportunity to join the WTO, but at the same time, there are also disciples who have made mistakes because of this, and now they are basically punished in Xingtang. ”

"Basically?" asked the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes.

"Yes, does the master still remember that outer disciple He Jingshan a few years ago?"

The crane-haired old man, whose eyes were covered by a white cloth, asked calmly, "Remember, what's wrong?"

"An inner disciple found out that the original outer disciple had been killed during the execution mission, and according to the information he provided, the person who killed He Jingshan knew about the existence of the sect. ”

"Is there such a thing?" said the crane-haired old man, whose eyes were covered by a white cloth, "Tell me more details." ”

"Yes!"

......

The next day, the crane-haired old man, whose eyes were covered by a white cloth, flew from the bamboo forest to a mountain peak.

There is a courtyard on the top of the mountain, surrounded by powder walls outside the courtyard, green willows hang around, three hanging flower gatehouses, and verandahs are copied on all sides. The courtyard is connected with each other, the mountains and stones are embellished, and the plaque of "Wind Flower Snow Moon" is hung on the five hugging buildings. The whole courtyard is magnificent, graceful and luxurious, the flowers are splendid, clear and exquisite, the backyard is full of roses, treasures, and a pool.

The crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes walked directly into the courtyard and came to the main hall, where there was a large case of pear marble, around the big case of pear marble, seven or eight people sat around it, and on the left side of the big pear marble case, there was a large plate of a big official kiln on the red sandalwood shelf, and there were dozens of delicate yellow and exquisite Buddha hands in the plate. On the right lacquer shelf hangs a white jade flounder, and next to it hangs a small hammer.

The whole room gives people the impression that it is generally wide and dense, and it is full of a chic and elegant bookish atmosphere.

"Here we are," a flamboyant-looking woman whispered softly to the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes.

Before the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes could speak, a middle-aged man with an eyepatch in his right eye next to the flamboyant-looking woman spoke:

"Don't try to tempt the Great Elder, the Great Elder is such an old person, you have eaten so much salt and rice you have eaten, and you are more than fifty people, why bother?"

"Hahaha!" The gorgeous-looking woman listened to the words of a middle-aged man with an eyepatch on her right eye, and instead of getting angry, she smiled and said, "I'm still eighteen like this, and you're already old." ”

"Less nonsense," the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes interrupted them, "Let's get started." ”

"First of all, let's talk about our new disciples......"

"The second is the financial problem......

"Then there's the question of the Tao ......"

"And then there's the mission......"

......

In the hall, many elders of the Ancient Martial Sect were discussing with each other.

The crane-haired old man with his eyes covered by a white cloth finally said.

"The rest of the things are handled according to the basic rules, the new disciples are handed over to our internal elders and core disciples to solve together, the financial problems are mainly handed over to our core disciples and inner disciples, so that they can experience and practice, and the Dao problem, this is solved by me and the master, as for the task problem, I think everyone should know another thing. ”

The elders suddenly looked at the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes.

"Great Elder, you mean ......" The flamboyant-looking woman leaned lazily in her chair.

"He Jingshan. The crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes said calmly.

The middle-aged man with an eyepatch on his right eye said disdainfully: "A disciple who has been expelled from the sect, there shouldn't be any need for us to make a big move." ”

"That's right, doesn't he have nothing to do with our sect?" said the gorgeous-looking woman.

A bald old man shaking a fan retorted, "Haven't you all grown up? Why did you let this outer disciple out in the first place, it was to give our sect disciple a chance to practice!"

"So now that he's dead, there's no chance of training?" asked the flamboyant-looking woman.

"No," said the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes, "we can issue a bounty for the disciples to hunt down the man who killed He Jingshan." ”

"Another experience?" said the middle-aged man with an eyepatch in his right eye.

"Think about our sect, you people," the bald old man who was shaking the pu fan said: "I suggest setting the difficulty to the elite level of the outer sect disciples, that He Jingshan has been hunted down and killed for several years, and it is estimated that he has no strength, and the person who killed him should have picked up a leak." ”

"It's still thoughtful by the three elders. The flamboyant-looking woman complimented.

"Alright!" said the crane-haired old man with a white cloth covering his eyes, "That's all for today's meeting, I'll go and meet the head of the retreat, and you can arrange it quickly." ”

"Yes!"
