Chapter 52 The North-South Repair Association
Lin Tiancheng didn't understand what Qiao Lao meant by the sentence of unifying the north and the south.
Old Qiao said lightly with a sad face: "If you talk about this, it is actually the sorrow of our cultivation association." ”
It turned out that what happened was like this, probably in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, with the fall of the last feudal dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, the great chaos in China, the warlords inside, and the bullying of foreign powers, there were two different voices within the Xiu Association at that time.
One voice is that the Xiu Association must stand up, no matter how chaotic it is, but it must not watch the invasion of foreign enemies and trample on our Chinese people, this is the bottom line.
Another voice believes that it is necessary to maintain the rules of the Association for thousands of years, not to get involved in politics, not to participate in secular disputes, and everything in the outside world has nothing to do with the Association.
These two voices argue with each other, and neither can convince the other.
During this time, many foreign cultivators entered the country, intervened in secular disputes, and wantonly destroyed the Huaxia Dragon Vein, trying to cut off our Huaxia luck.
After discovering this, the voice of the main battle in the cultivation association suddenly became tough again, although in the end there was still no consensus of opinion, but this time the power of the people on the main station was not small, so these people united and took action against those outsiders.
That period of history was bloody for the people, and it was also disastrous for the Shukyo, and countless predecessors died in that history.
Even their names are not known to the world.
It was also during those bloody decades that led to the split of the Repair Association, because as the casualties of those who participated in the war continued to increase, their indifferent attitude towards the Repair Association also became more and more resentful, and finally after the war was completely over, these people also announced their departure from the Repair Association.
And in the northern region where they had fought, the Northern Monks Society was formed. The original Cultivators Association was called the Southern Monks Association.
But things didn't end like this, the establishment of the Northern Repair Association touched the bottom limit of the Repair Association, and those old stubborns naturally couldn't allow the appearance of the Northern Repair Association. So the two sides fought fiercely.
Since the personnel of the Northern Repair Association have been greatly injured in the war for many years, they are naturally not the opponents of the Southern Repair Association.
However, the Southern Repair Association can only suppress the Northern Repair Association, but it cannot destroy the Northern Repair Association. Therefore, the situation of confrontation between the North and the South was formed.
But the current situation is still that the male is strong and the north is weak.
Qiao Lao told Lin Tiancheng about the history of the North-South Cultivation Association with a sad face.
After Lin Tiancheng listened, he also fell silent. He was proud of the predecessors of the Northern Repair Association, saddened by their sacrifices, and admired their national righteousness.
The two sat there for a long time without speaking.
In the end, Lin Tiancheng couldn't help it first, and asked: "Old Qiao, what you said really made the kid particularly moved after hearing it, presumably this Demon Capital Branch is a force that belongs to the Northern Cultivation Association, but what does this have to do with me joining the Cultivation Association?"
Qiao Lao did not return to Lin Tiancheng's question, but asked Lin Tiancheng instead: "Who do you think you are more inclined to this North-South Cultivation Association, and who was right and who was wrong in the situation back then?"
Lin Tiancheng thought for a while and said: "I don't know who is right and who is wrong, but I only know one truth, the skin will be attached if there is no hair." If it were me, I would probably make the same decision as the seniors of the Northern Repair Association. ”
Qiao Lao looked at Lin Tiancheng, and suddenly, his eyes shone brightly: "Why do you fancy you? It is because of your talent, you are the only cultivator who has reached the realm of the unity of heaven and man in the past thousand years, and your achievements in the future will be limitless, and our Northern Cultivation Association is now lacking a leader to take us to change the situation of the division between the north and the south, so that this organization that has been inherited for thousands of years will not be lost in the stubborn hands of those Southern Cultivation Association." ”
Lin Tiancheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Qiao Lao say the word "severe", and hurriedly asked: "Old Qiao, even if the north and the south don't agree because of the previous concept, the word "severe" shouldn't be used." ”
Qiao Lao looked at Lin Tiancheng and said: "These guys from the Southern School, I don't know what to think all these years, they first entered the secular world, interfered in politics and commerce, and also colluded with the country that had blood debts with us back then, do you say that they are doing this to isolate themselves from the Sanqing Patriarch, worthy of those bloody predecessors?"
Lin Tiancheng also frowned when he heard this.
"Elder Qiao, even if I join the Northern Cultivation Association, what can I help you? I'm young and my skills aren't high. Lin Tiancheng said.
"Lin Xiaoyou, don't be presumptuous, you have your advantage, that is, you are young, you are already a cultivator in the late stage of the second stage, as a young generation, you are already standing in the forefront, and more importantly, your ability to unite people in that day, your cultivation speed will be far faster than ordinary people in the future, as long as you are given enough time and experience, your future is unlimited, and it will even reach the height that we old men look up to. ”
"I've observed your face before, and even made a divination for you, I can't see through your future, this kind of face is enough to make me pay attention to it, I guess that Xiaoyou must be a person with a big chance. ”
Qiao Lao said sincerely to Lin Tiancheng.
Lin Tiancheng looked at Qiao Lao's serious face, and after pondering for a long time, he said with a firm expression: "Qiao Lao, I accept your invitation and decide to join the Cultivation Association. ”
"Hahaha, I really didn't misunderstand you, you won't let me down. Qiao Lao looked at Lin Tiancheng and said seriously.
"Old Qiao, I also want to ask, what is the division of forces between the north and the south?" Lin Tiancheng asked curiously.
Qiao Lao smiled and said: "I have already said just now, we are strong in the south and weak in the north, the southern faction occupies two-thirds of the country, and the current sphere of influence of our northern faction is the northeast and north China and the area around the demon capital. ”
Lin Tiancheng patted his head after hearing this, and said in his heart: "Damn, this northern faction is too miserable." ”
Qiao Lao seemed to see Lin Tiancheng's thoughts, and said lightly: "Do you think that our northern faction is miserable, but this is also a helpless thing, it is good to be able to hold these places, but our northern faction also has advantages, that is, we are united, unlike the southern faction, although the power is huge, but there are many internal factions and intrigues." ”
Lin Tiancheng was also helpless, and said in his heart: "Old man, you are not ashamed but proud, the southern faction can still beat the northern faction like this, if the southern faction is ironclad, then the northern faction will be beaten by others sooner sooner." ”
Seeing Lin Tiancheng's expression, Qiao Lao was also a little weak-hearted, smiled awkwardly, and said: "Lin boy, in a few days, we will start the biennial exchange meeting of our northern faction, this time our magic capital is the organizer, you will also come to participate when the time comes, it is best to win the first place for me, so that our magic capital branch will also have a long face." ”
