Chapter 766: Rivals Gather
Among those few people, except for the clerk of the Religious Committee who had met once, the other people looked at each other, and judging from the kind of bearing in the gestures of these people, one of them stood out from the crowd, incompatible with the people around him, and had no official flavor at all, more like a disciple of a top sect.
Moreover, the few religious committee personnel around him who were full of public flavor were very respectful to that person, and they were simply obedient, and their flattering posture seemed to be serving their boss.
This point is obviously extremely strange in Lin Fan's eyes, you must know that in the previous religious committee, the disciples of the sect and the descendants cultivated by the religious committee themselves were incompatible, even if there was a gap in rank between the two sides, they would not behave so deferentially.
When dealing with the disciples of the sect, the clerks of the religious committee generally adopted the principle of being decent, neither confrontational nor close, and although they were nominally colleagues, they were in fact very distant.
"It's a bit interesting, there seems to be a lot of change in the religious committee, it seems that their attitude towards the disciples of the sect has changed a lot."
Lin Fan secretly thought in his heart, from the behavior of those people, you can imagine the current atmosphere in the Religious Committee, with the support of the secular government in the past, the name of Lin Chengfeng, and many bigwigs in the Religious Committee, so although the two are not very harmonious, they can still cooperate together.
But since the hunt for Lin Fan, the relationship between the Religious Committee and the six major sects has changed a lot, and the situation that could barely be divided is gone forever.
It is impossible to say that Lin Fan does not have a little hatred for the Religious Committee in his heart now, in his opinion, the abomination of the Religious Committee is not in his deeds, but in his heart.
To say that the Religious Committee did not bring much trouble to Lin Fan, when he was chasing and killing him, the main force was still the six major sects, and the Religious Committee was at best a supporting role in beating the side drums, and the hatred between the two sides was far from the point of endless death in terms of the degree of conflict.
But what made Lin Fan unrelieved was that he thought that even if the Religious Committee was not his helper, he would definitely not become his enemy, because of the relationship between the master and the Religious Committee, he even entrusted the protection of Li Xin'er to the other party at the beginning.
But this trust was exchanged for a bitter ending, and the religious committee did not hesitate to betray the friendship between them and help the six major sects pursue themselves.
Therefore, although the Religious Committee did not bring much harm to Lin Fan in essence, from a psychological level, Lin Fan's dislike of them was even greater than that of the six major sects.
After the people of the religious committee arrived upstairs, they occupied a table, ordered a table of dishes, and began to enjoy them slowly, Lin Fan kept his ears open and eavesdropped on their speeches.
After listening for a while, Lin Fan was stunned to find that the clerks of the religious committee called the leader Jiang Gongzi, and kept praising each other.
Hearing the surname Jiang, Lin Fan had some doubts in his heart, because their Kunlun lineage has a special origin with the two oldest surnames in China, one is surnamed Ji and the other is surnamed Jiang.
This is also what he heard from his master once, the words were unknown, he just said it lightly, and did not give Lin Fan a detailed explanation, and Lin Fan was not very interested in this at that time, but he knew that the ancestors of these two surnames seemed to have been disciples of Kunlun Qi Practitioners.
However, the Kunlun at that time was completely different from the current Kunlun lineage, and the current line where Lin Fan is located is at best an ancient branch of Kunlun.
Although the clansmen of these two surnames have not appeared in the world for a long time, their historical background is much deeper than that of the two thousand-year-old families in the usual sense.
At that time, when the master mentioned these two surnames, his face was very ugly, and the tone did not have a trace of closeness, but a trace of hatred, which sounded less like a fellow family, but more like an enemy.
"Could it be that this person is a child of the Jiang family?"
Lin Fan thought to himself, but he immediately shook his head and denied his speculation, because these two surnames had not appeared in the world for a long time, and according to the master, these two clansmen were probably no longer in this world.
Just as he was concentrating on eavesdropping on the conversation at the table of the Religious Affairs Committee, several groups of high-spirited fellows came upstairs, including monks and Taoist priests, all dressed in distinctive religious costumes.
Lin Fan looked at it and once again found a few familiar people from it, these people were all disciples of the six major sects who had surrounded him, although he didn't know his name, he could think of it at once he saw it.
After these disciples of the six major sects went upstairs, they first glanced around, and then focused their eyes on the table of the Religious Affairs Committee, staring at each other with unkind faces.
"Hmph, there are people who bring dogs in the eating place, be careful, some dogs change their hands faster than they change clothes." One of the leading disciples of the six major sects snorted coldly and scolded disdainfully.
When he spoke, he deliberately raised his voice, and he specially pointed at the table of the Religious Affairs Committee, lest others not know who he was scolding, and it was clear that he wanted to make some trouble.
Hearing this insinuating humiliation, the faces of the clerks of the Religious Affairs Committee showed a trace of annoyance, and they were just about to stand up and speak, when Jiang Gongzi suddenly reached out and pressed down.
Then, Jiang Gongzi said slowly: "Don't be angry, we should be considerate of others, after all, the head of my own family has just passed away, and he died in a foreign land, and some resentment in my heart can be forgiven." ”
"What do you say, dare to say it again, don't think that your surname is Jiang, we are afraid of you." The disciples of the six major sects were like cats with their tails stepped on, and the biggest scar was forcibly uncovered in front of everyone.
Listening to their conversation, Lin Fan was shocked, it seemed that this Jiang Gongzi was very likely to be the son of that ancient surname, otherwise, the disciples of the six major sects just now would not have said anything like "Don't think that your surname is Jiang, we are afraid of you".
Faced with the intimidation of many sect disciples, Jiang Gongzi smiled ignorantly, and said in a contemptuous tone, "What? If you want to scare me, you're not qualified enough. ”
"Hmph, others are afraid of your six major sects, but my Jiang family disciples will not be afraid, even our house slaves can't beat them, and they dare to provoke me, ignorance!"
"To deal with you, you don't need Young Master Ben to make a move." That Jiang Gongzi's face was proud, as if the world was so big, no one could let him take it seriously.
Just when the group of sect disciples were angry, a bald-headed young monk suddenly smiled and said, "Don't put gold on your face, you are your domestic slave when you are in Kunlun, and the Kunlun people still regard you as a rebel." ”
