It is impossible for every force to rely on its own reproduction and not accept fresh blood from the outside world, and the same is true for such a family sect as the Dongfang family. Although it may dilute some of the family bloodline by absorbing people from the outside world, some basic family operations still need ordinary disciples to take care of them, so this kind of behavior is indispensable.

The method of the Dongfang family to absorb outsiders is to "recruit new people" once every ten years.

Recruiting new people means absorbing fresh blood, and every ten years, ordinary disciples and some elite disciples in the sect will leave the Dongfang family to recruit new members with cultivation talent in their sphere of influence.

These disciples either go through some selection, or through visits, or simply rely on luck to bring back some children who are not more than ten years old and can cultivate, and this is the goal of recruiting new students.

On the one hand, the reason why the age of Naxin is set at the age of ten is because at this time, those children with cultivation talent have not yet formed their bodies and can still lay a good foundation. On the other hand, the younger you are, the easier it is to develop a sense of belonging to the Oriental family. They want people who can fight for the honor of the Oriental family, not passers-by who will run away after learning some skills.

Entering the Dongfang family, that is the people of the Dongfang family, the Dongfang family has its own set of methods that can make the people who enter here return to their hearts and no longer be attached to all things in the mortal world.

The children who are brought back are not sure to stay in the Dongfang family, but they have to go through many selections in terms of talent, age, strength and other aspects, and eliminate one of the batches and send them back to their original places, leaving only enough children.

This year, the number of new recruits is much higher than in previous years, and there are 1,000 people. These thousand people are like a big cake, and the attraction to the lords of the various veins is enough for them to put down their old faces and quarrel with red faces.

Dongfang Wentian looked at the general meeting hall of the vegetable market with a helpless expression, in this room, he is a junior, although he is the patriarch, he also needs to take into account the face of the other nine vein masters, so there are some things that he can't say too much, too much.

So Dongfang Wentian closed his eyes, ready to raise his spirit, and wait for the nine vein masters to make a decision after the quarrel, but some people didn't want him to get his wish.

"Patriarch, my vein has not participated in the distribution of new recruits for nearly a thousand years! even if my vein has made mistakes, the punishment of this thousand years is enough to offset it!" At the end of the seat, an old man with white hair who had not spoken all this time stood up and said to the east.

As soon as the old man's words landed, the council hall that was still noisy just now was instantly quiet, and the other eight pulse masters had different expressions in their eyes.

Some people's eyes are sympathetic, some people's eyes are indifferent, but most people are dissatisfied.

"Dongfang Xuan, you made a big mistake back then, and almost caused the destruction of my Dongfang family, it's only been a thousand years, and you want to resist your sins and come back? I'm afraid it's a little delusional, right?" The old man next to him, who was also white, stood up and scolded Dongfang Xuan, the lord of the sin vein, mercilessly.

This old man's name is Dongfang Shangcheng, and he is the master of connections.

Dongfang Xuan's anger rose and he wanted to scold back, but suddenly he thought of something, suppressed his anger, and just said angrily: "You and I know what happened back then, there is no need to use it as an excuse." Today, I just want to ask the patriarch, this time, do I have a chance to sin my lineage?"

Dongfang Wentian frowned.

Another younger old man patted Dongfang Xuan's shoulder and comforted: "Xuanzi, you are so old, what are you angry about, what your Uncle Shang Cheng said may be a little too radical, but he is an old bastard, don't bother with him." Everyone knows what happened to the sin vein back then, but isn't there a shortage of people in all the veins over the years! So you have been wronged for the time being, and next time, I will help you fight for a place. ”

Dongfang Xuan looked at the person who persuaded him, and smiled bitterly: "Uncle Shang Zhen, it's not that I have to mention it at this time, but I can't wait for the sinful lineage anymore! In recent years, there have been no new people in my lineage to join, and I have been relying on old disciples to maintain it." But some of them don't have enough cultivation to live for so long, and some of them who went out to do tasks haven't come back, and now they are up and down, in and out of those people, I can still live for a few years, but I'm afraid that if I don't die yet, the sin vein will be gone!"

There are still five generations of people in the Dongfang family who are still alive: Feng, Shang, Dao, Wen, and others.

Dongfang Shangzhen, who is the master of the earth's veins, is the same as the main vein of the human veins, Dongfang Shangcheng, is also a Shangzi generation. Dongfang Xuan, the lord of the sin vein, Dongfang Ming, the old patriarch, Dongfang Ming, the lord of the Dan vein, etc., are both Dao characters, but when this generation was naming, the elders considered that the word Dao was a bit big, and they were afraid that their generation would not be able to suppress it, so they directly canceled the word Dao, so the people of their generation only had a single name.

After that, it is Dongfang who asks the sky, and Dongfang asks those who ask the word.

The reason why the entire council hall can exist for three generations at the same time is because the life span of a cultivator will increase with the ascension of the realm, and it is possible that things such as getting married and having children can be completed at the age of a few decades, or even at the age of tens or even hundreds or thousands of years, so it is impossible to judge a person's generation from age alone.

In the same way, if you just look at the face, it will be a little unrealistic to judge a person's age.

Dongfang Shangzhen wanted to persuade him again, but Dongfang Xuan waved his hand and didn't give his old uncle a chance to speak at all.

"Uncle Shang Zhen, there's no need to say any more, I can understand some words. After speaking, he asked the heavens towards Dongfang: "Patriarch, today I will put this old face here, if the Dongfang family still needs my sinful line, then return us to a new place." If the Dongfang family wants to be guarded by only the nine veins, then you are free!"

"You can discuss, I still have some things to deal with in my criminal vein, so I won't accompany you here to talk about your daily affairs. ”

After saying that, the old man with white hair walked out the door without looking back.

"Uncle Xuan, when the discussion here is over, I will give you an explanation!" Dongfang Wentian's words came from behind, Dongfang Xuan nodded, and his footsteps did not stop.

Seeing Dongfang Xuan leaving, the only female vein master in the council hall chased him out.

This female vein is named Dongfang Yuan, who is in charge of the Dan vein, and she looks like she has just passed middle age, and she looks a little out of place with the old men in the full council hall.

In fact, there is not much difference in age between her and Dongfang Xuan, but because of her high cultivation, she looks young. And because there is not much difference in age between the two people, the relationship is better. The relationship between the two people also directly determines the relationship between the disciples below.

But the relationship is good, although the pill is also under the control of Dongfang Yuan, but she can't be the master in the distribution, so she can only use the means within her ability to help the criminal vein in private.

"Dongfang Xuan, what are you crazy about today? Do you still know what is the current situation of your sin vein? You are here, it's like this, what should you do if you leave the sin vein? Have you thought about it? Why can't you do things at such an old age?" After Dongfang Yuan caught up with Dongfang Xuan, he scolded with his head and face.

Dongfang Xuan looked at Dongfang Yuan, barely holding back some smiles on his face, and sighed: "Haven't you understood what is going on in the council hall today?"

Dongfang Yuan was stunned for a moment, with an inexplicable expression on his face, and said: "That's what I said, but you are here, you can still fight for it, you go, this year's new Naxin has nothing to do." ”

Dongfang Xuan shook his head and sighed again.

"The three veins of heaven, earth and man have followed the footsteps of the main vein since earlier, and today Uncle Shang Cheng and Uncle Shang Zhen are singing with a red face and a white face, are they talking about their own meaning? That is to help the main vein convey a message to me!

"But~" Dongfang Yuan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Dongfang Xuan: "Go back quickly, you come out to chase me, they will be dissatisfied!"

After speaking, Dongfang Xuan walked away. Dongfang Yuan looked at Dongfang Xuan's back as if he had been evacuated all of a sudden, and finally did not chase anymore, but muttered: "I forced a person who was once so proud to be like this!"

After speaking, he also returned to the conference hall.

In the chamber, silence returned, and nothing seemed to have happened.

Dongfang Yuan looked at everyone in the council hall with a small abacus, and felt cool in his heart, the weakest vein of the Dongfang family is the sin vein, and the next vein is the Dan vein, don't look at the Dan vein, the usual cultivation pills in the Dan vein are sufficient, but most of the people here are only high in alchemy talent and low in cultivation talent, so their own strength is not very strong.

Dongfang Yuan suddenly felt a cold feeling of death in his lips and teeth. If the sin vein falls, then the next one will be your own Dan vein, right? If it weren't for the fact that many disciples were still reciting the gift of the Dan vein, if it weren't for their own cultivation, I'm afraid that the one who left here today would probably be himself.

"Guys, let me tell you. Dongfang asked the heavens to see that the martial vein master came back, and then he spoke: "Everyone sitting here, according to generation, except for my uncles and uncles, is my grandfather's generation. Although my junior is the patriarch, there is still a big gap between his self-knowledge ability and the elders, so Wentian is also very scared. ”

"In the past, I made decisions after soliciting the opinions of the elders, and this new recruitment is the first time that Wentian has participated in the position of patriarch, and it stands to reason that I should still discuss with the elders to come up with a result. ”

After a pause, he glanced at everyone present, and his eyes gradually became sharp.

"But today, please allow Wentian to be presumptuous once, this time I will accept a new allocation quota, I will set it myself!"

After asking the sky, the people present raised their heads one after another, looking at the head of the family who had always been "well-behaved and obedient" with a look of disbelief, not knowing why he was so domineering today.

Dongfang Wentian rushed to announce his decision before the main veins attacked, "This time, I decided to give the sin veins a chance!"

After speaking, except for Dongfang Yuan's eyes, the audience was in an uproar!

"Patriarch can't!" Dongfang Xiong, the vein master who was complaining just now, immediately changed his eyes! Hurriedly objected: "The sin vein is so sinful, he should continue to repent, and such a decision is against the family law!"

"We know very well that the patriarch is magnanimous and open-minded, but if we forgive the sins like this this time, then what should the rest of the veins do in the future?

The old man's eyes were sharp, and he looked upright. This is Dongfang Ah, the master of the criminal vein, who is dull and inflexible, and has hurt many people in his usual life, but because the power of the criminal vein is very large, almost no one dares to worry too much about him.

Except, of course, Dongfang Xuan. The sin of the sin is determined by the East, and the punishment of the sin is also determined by the East. Therefore, Dongfang Xuan went to Dongfang Ah several times to reason and ask for a new conviction, but Dongfang Ah rejected it.

Although Dongfang Xuan did not change the result, Dongfang Ah felt that his majesty was provoked, and since then he has begun to have a bad relationship with the closely related sin line.

Today, Dongfang Wentian said to give the sinful vein a chance, and other vein owners may consider their own interests, but Dongfang Ah first thinks of his own dignity.

The Oriental family, a family of ten veins, seems to be a group, but each has its own abacus.
