Chapter 189: The Battle of the Leaders
Ke Huaigu's series of questions made Liang Youhuan completely fall into contemplation, what the master said is right When all coincidences revolve around the same thing, it is not a coincidence, but a human being. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Liang Youhuan of course also wants to know the truth, this conspiracy involves too many people, himself, Bai Xiaoran, Master, Du Mijin, are all his dearest and beloved people, how can he not care? But now Du Mijin has misunderstood himself deeply, and there is Bai Xiaoran in the middle who makes him speechless, he can only helplessly say to Ke Huaigu: "Master, it's not that the disciple doesn't want to stick to it and provoke the thief to show up, it's just that the disciple and Du Mijin are now like strangers, this is the text message Du Majin sent to the disciple today, you can take a look." ”
Liang Youhuan took out his mobile phone and handed it to Ke Huaigu as he spoke, but Ke Huaigu didn't answer, he just looked at Liang Youhuan and asked directly: "Do you think Du Mijin is jealous because he is jealous of Bai Xiaoran's estrangement and coldness because he notices the existence of Bai Xiaoran?" The teacher asks you, did you have an injury to your right arm before? ”
The master even knows such a trivial matter, and he mentions it at this moment, is there any mystery? Liang Youhuan replied with some surprise: "Ah, yes." A few days ago, Xiao Ran went out to buy things and didn't know what stimulation she was subjected to, and when she came back, she suddenly became delirious, and when she was crazy, her strength was surprising, and the disciple was afraid that she would accidentally hurt herself under her emotion, so she could only hold her tightly and imprison her behavior. But she didn't recognize the disciple at all, and in the frantic tearing, she scratched the disciple's right hand. When Liang Youhuan said this, he thought that Ke Huaigu was worried about his injury, so he added: "It's not a serious injury, I applied medicine that day, and now it's almost better, so don't worry about it." ”
Ke Huaigu didn't answer when he heard this, but continued to ask: "Since Bai Xiao is so seriously ill, didn't you send her to the doctor?" ”
"It's sent, it's weird to say, it's a lot quieter after Xiao Ran scratched me. The disciple thought that maybe Xiao Ran would treat me as a close relative, and he would always find some reason when he saw me injured. Seeing that she no longer resisted strongly, and was afraid that she would go crazy again, the disciple could only take advantage of her emotional relief to send her to the hospital, and the doctor said that her condition and hurtful behavior could also happen, so he gave her a sedative and stayed in the hospital for a day of observation. Liang Youhuan said truthfully.
"Then when did you pick her up from the hospital, and did she remember what she did after she was discharged?" Hearing Ke Huaigu's question, Liang Youhuan thought carefully for a long time, and replied recalling: "The disciple did not take Xiao Ran out of the hospital. At that time, the situation was very complicated, Du Mijin suddenly asked for leave and was not in the company, the company lacked manpower, and the boss did not give leave. Since the disciple was ordered by the teacher to stay in the neighboring matchmaker's house, naturally he couldn't give people a reason to fire me, so after I sent Xiao Ran to the hospital, I saw that she fell asleep after the injection, thinking that the doctor and the nurse looked at her, there should be something wrong, and repeatedly told the doctor to notify me in time if something happened, so I went back to work directly. However, when the disciple went to visit Xiao Ran in the hospital in the evening, the medical staff of the hospital said that Xiao Ran was already emotionally stable, and they also gave Xiao Ran a thinking test, and they agreed to let Xiao Ran be discharged from the hospital because they thought it was okay. So the disciple went home directly, Xiao Ran was really at home, but she didn't mention the details of being in the hospital to the disciple, and the disciple was afraid that she would feel guilty for hurting me by mistake, so he didn't ask. After Liang Youhuan finished speaking in detail, he felt that there must be something strange in the master's repeated questioning, so he asked puzzledly: "Master, what's wrong?" Any questions? ”
Ke Huaigu looked at Liang Youhuan's eyes and said word by word: "That's not Bai Xiaoran at all!" ”
After Ke Huaigu said these words, Liang Youhuan's whole person was not good, and his wide-open eyes were full of disbelief. Seeing this, Ke Huaigu had no choice but to explain to Liang Youhuan in detail: "The teacher has already told you just now, what happened two years ago was done by someone maliciously, and the only people who can do all this can be people from within the Puritan Sect. You worship me as a teacher, mainly learning swordsmanship, hidden weapons and poisons, and I haven't mentioned too much to you about other teachers. But in the generation of teachers in the Qing Sect, it can be said that each of your uncles and uncles has their own unique knowledge, just like your Gusu uncle is good at medicine, and Du Mijin is good at strategy. There is a secret art in this sect called transfiguration, and those who have learned it can completely disguise themselves as any person, and their voice, body, and appearance will not deviate in the slightest, and even those closest to them may not be able to recognize it. My master, that is, the head of this sect, said when he taught us various techniques that there is a specialization in the art industry, and in order not to distract us, he never let us have too much to do with the techniques that we have learned, and between the master and your uncles and uncles, they don't fully know what everyone will do. Although the teacher doesn't know who the head of the sect passed on to Yi Rong, it is certain that there must be someone in the Upper Qing Sect who is good at this technique. The white dye you see is not the real white dye, but the disguise of others. She is quiet after scratching you, because scratching you is his purpose, and now that he has achieved his goal, the next thing to do is wait for you to take her to the hospital. Because the hospital is full of people, it is easy to get out. Just imagine, if it was really Bai Xiaoran who scratched you, and even the closest people could be wantonly hurt, it must have been done under an extreme mental breakdown, just a shot of sedatives, a few hours of sleep, you can pass the hospital's thinking test, and a person can be discharged home well, don't you think she recovered too quickly? It was Bai Xiaoran who went out to buy something, but it was someone else who came back, and when you came home, you saw a good Bai Xiaoran, because she had never been sick at all! She doesn't know everything that happened to you, so naturally she won't mention it, and everything is just that someone took advantage of Bai Xiaoran's time out to make a perfect time difference with you. ”
But why did he do it? Scrapped such a big thing, risking being exposed, just to scratch the disciples? It's still a small wound that heals in two days, which is illogical. Liang Youhuan couldn't figure it out anyway and asked.
"I ask you, did you initially think that Du Mijin had an unusual attitude towards you, was it the day after you were scratched?" Liang Youhuan heard Ke Huaigu ask himself this, and seriously thought about what happened the day after he was scratched, and suddenly thought that Du Mijin was really not right at that time, as if he was originally fine, and suddenly went to the bathroom and came back as a different person.
Ke Huaigu observed the change in the expression on Liang Youhuan's face attentively, and saw that he had already thought of Du Mijin's reaction at that time, so he spoke again: "Du Mijin was injured in the foot that day, and she told you that she was almost killed by a sneak attack by gangsters, but what you don't know is that when Du Mijin escaped, she also scratched the murderer's right arm!" ”
Ke Huaigu said this, Liang Youhuan instantly realized, no wonder Du Mijin suddenly said something to himself unusually, it turned out that he was testing, thinking about what he said, it really didn't look like a good identity. According to the meaning of the master's words, the other party let Du Mijin misunderstand that he intended to harm her, and attracted Xiao Ran between him and Du Mijin, Xiao Ran's current situation is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and he will inevitably snub Du Mijin's temptation in a state of being overwhelmed. His own negligence will only aggravate Du Mijin's suspicions, and the two of them are already an inevitable ending when they go to strangers, there is no suspense, this plan is really vicious! Liang Youhuan's heart is very complicated, emotionally, Liang Youhuan is sad that he and Du Mijin are in love, but they can be easily separated, and this relationship seems to be very limited. And intellectually, he also understands that this can't be all blamed on Du Mijin, she has been in the church for a longer time than herself, all she learns all day is intrigue and trickery, and she deals with sinister people's hearts. Even if it is a close person, but after all, she and Du Mijin belong to different camps, and this foundation is not good, and she has long forgotten the past, and it is normal for her to guard against herself. Liang Youhuan understands these things, and the people who designed them naturally understand. With Du Mijin's intelligence, as long as his thinking turns a little and asks himself, all the frames can be self-defeating. But she has always been proud, since she feels that she has been deceived by her loved ones, in addition to being sad, it should be more of a regret brought to her by frustration, how can she run like a resentful woman and ask herself why she abandoned herself? It can be seen that the layout of the person is not under his own solution to Du Majin's character, so that he can confidently lead Du Majin's emotions to his own resentment step by step. This situation is interlocking, related everywhere, and no step is missing, it will not be today's situation, which also shows that the layout of the people is thoughtful and intelligent. A person who understands Du Majin and is good at using people's hearts to plot, is it-
"Master, the disciple wants to know if all this is related to Qin Jishi, please make it clear to the master." Liang Youhuan couldn't help but ask directly, and he was so emotional that he didn't care about the etiquette at all, and called him by his name, without even adding the word "uncle".
Ke Huaigu is usually known as a "smiling antique" in the teaching, and the most important thing is the rules of the teaching, if there are younger disciples who dare to be big or small in front of him, it will inevitably be a reprimand. Even he himself, because of Qin Jishi's status as Senior Brother, is polite everywhere. At this time, seeing that Liang Youhuan actually called the teacher by his name, although he knew that it was excusable, he still couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Qin Jishi is your uncle, don't be rude!" ”
"The disciple knows that he should respect his master, but if it is really the master who instructs others to do it, it is too much of a loss of identity, right? Such wanton framing and calculations are too much to live up to Maze's protection and trust in him everywhere, right? With the honorable position of the master, but he harmed the younger generation like this, why did it come to this, the disciple couldn't figure it out. Liang Youhuan saw that Ke Huaigu was not very happy, so he had to suppress his anger and said sullenly.
"Why is this the case, sometimes teachers can't help but ask themselves the same question." Ke Huaigu suddenly sighed sadly. He turned around slowly, facing the night breeze blowing in the distance, staring at the night in front of him with a stunned gaze, and said faintly as if he was a memory: "When the teacher first entered the Puritanism, he was a few years younger than you now, and now that the teacher has been seventy years this year, and the time of more than sixty years has been thrown into this Puritanism, and I can't remember how many things I have experienced. But this man loves to remember when he is old, and sometimes he thinks about the days when he first joined the church. I think that at the beginning, being a teacher was not today's temperament, young and inevitably frivolous and stubborn, speaking of which, it is a little more lively than your chess and ink junior brother, and every three or five will provoke the master to take out the ring ruler and greet me. Your Master Qin Jishi is five years older than me, and he is the first apprentice under the master in the teaching. Unlike me, he was docile and kind when he was young, and he was sincere and good to everyone, whenever the master was angry and moved, the other brothers were far away, for fear of touching the master's head, only you, Qin Jishi, always stood up for me as soon as possible. At that time, your master was not the head of the sect, and in terms of qualifications, he was only the third generation of disciples under the seat of the head of the sect at that time, and his personality was not polished as it is now, and only compassion remained, which was very hot. Your uncle has been disciplined with me several times because of his intercession for me, but even so, the next time I get into trouble again, he still stands up and persuades me. At that time, we were just two ordinary disciples of the last generation of the Shangqing Sect, and I also thought that your master and I would protect each other until the day we entered the earth, and no one thought that there would be today. Ke Huaigu's mood fluctuated a little when he said this, he raised his wrinkled hand and wiped the slightly moist corners of his eyes, Qimo saw it, took two steps closer, childishly pulled the corner of Ke Huaigu's clothes, and shook it gently like a coquettish.
Liang Youhuan can't help but be a little strange, when he was in the teaching, he didn't feel how close the relationship between Qimo and the master was, but now looking at Qimo's actions, it is like a sad old father who comforts his children, and this wordless feeling is incomparable to even his apprentice, who is recognized as the most valued apprentice of the master. Ke Huaigu turned his head, looked at Qimo standing beside him, pouted and looked unhappy, knowing that he felt sorry for himself, his heart was warm, and he naturally stretched out his hand and touched Qimo's forehead affectionately, and comforted him softly: "Good boy, it's okay to be a teacher." Cai sighed again and continued: "After a few decades, what I see most for my teacher is not the brotherhood and friendship between the disciples of the same generation, not the prosperity of the Puritan Sect, but the never-ending desire of generation after generation. Those originally ignorant and clean faces have been slowly soaked in decades of time, and they will eventually change. It's ridiculous to say that the Upper Puritanism advocates Taoism, and every day what is muttered in the mouth is that Taoism is natural, without desire and without desire. But this generation of disciples has survived like this day by day, and their abilities are getting bigger and bigger, and how many of them still remember the original ethereal vision of wanting to 'turn into immortals, slay demons and eliminate demons'? There is a huge Puritanism, and there are hundreds of disciples in total, but there is only one head of the family, when you can't cultivate immortality, isn't there only the seat left that can respond to a pair of eyes staring at each other? Over the years, I have watched my master fight with others, and watched my master fight with others, which generation has not had some shady calculations behind it? Sometimes you are as confused as you are now, the Puritan Church is isolated from the world, peaceful for a hundred years, and there has never been any big move in the sect, this position of head is just a false name, what is worth trying to win beyond recognition? But finally until now, I realized that many things in this world sometimes don't depend on whether you want them or not, but on who others want to get. It may be useless to get it, but if you don't get it, you're afraid that others will say that you're useless, an old bone, and you will live to the end, and what you can't see is really that little bit of false name. ”
When Ke Huaigu said this, looking at Liang Youhuan's eyes that were still a little confused, he smiled self-deprecating and helplessly, and continued sincerely: "As early as ten years ago, those restless voices in the sect were guessing who the next head would be. As the current head gets older, these voices get louder and louder. The elders in the sect can only last a few years, they have no hope of taking over as the head of the sect themselves, and they don't want to let go of the pitiful power in their hands, so they can only plan to find a new head that is beneficial to them. As a teacher, you may not know that many of your teachers are no longer there, and the rest of them, your Gusu master is obsessed with medical skills, and spends his days studying how to make the elixir of immortality, and has little contact with other people. Your qualifications are mediocre, and you have not been valued by the head since you were a teenager. Your Bai Shibo is an understanding person, he lives casually and freely, he swims in the mountains and plays in the water when he has nothing to do, and the days he stays in the church all year round are counted. Your Uncle Huang has been in the church for a shorter time than us, and his foundation is not deep, and he also wants to take a foot in the troubled waters this time, but he can only serve in the head of the sect in obscurity, and he has no time to win over more elders. After talking about it, you will take a look again, isn't it just that you are the only two people left, Qin Jishi and Weishi? Your uncle is the head of the family, and his voice is already high, so I thought that he should take over the position of the head of the family. I don't think about it, since when, because your master taught two sets of kung fu as a teacher, the teaching began to be passed on, and the position of the head of the family was passed on to the virtuous, and the capable lived there. At first, being a teacher was just a joke, but this statement is getting more and more popular, and your master neither clarifies nor suppresses the rumors, so his mind is unpredictable. When I wanted to distinguish between my teacher and your uncle, there was already a gap between me and your teacher, and I couldn't argue. Now even if your master still cares about the feelings of the same family, those people behind him will spare no effort to weaken the power of the teacher, and everyone in the sect knows that you are my most valued apprentice, and I have suffered you. ”
When Ke Huaigu said this, Liang Youhuan hesitated for a long time before he pondered and said: "The disciple has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not, if there is something offensive to the master, I hope the master will not blame." ”
Ke Huaigu saw that Liang Youhuan seemed to have made a great determination to say this, and he had already guessed what he was going to say, but he was not angry, but said with a kind smile: "You want to say to the teacher, the competition is because both sides want to get it, if the teacher really has no mind at all, as long as he insists on being polite, there will be no more disputes, right?" ”
After all, it was a vain speculation about the master's thoughts, Liang Youhuan wanted to say his intentions tactfully, but when he heard Ke Huaigu ask directly without embellishment, he suddenly bowed his head and admitted his mistake with some embarrassment: "The disciple is reckless, please forgive the master." ”
"There's nothing presumptuous, there's nothing between master and apprentice that can't be said frankly, you might as well tell you the truth for the teacher, this position, for the teacher also wants." The words fell, and for a while, Liang Youhuan and Qimo both showed shock that could not be concealed. Qi Mo was surprised, but he didn't expect the master to be interested in the position of the head, he often followed Ke Huaigu, in his thinking, the master is the wisest and most detached person in the world, there is no trace of ties in the red dust, how can he be obsessed with power? And Liang Youhuan was different, he was shocked that he didn't expect the master to really tell what he thought in his heart. You must know that coveting the position of head is tantamount to a taboo in the teaching, even if you are a pro-master and apprentice, even if you really want to, you must always show that you don't care, so that it is safer and safer. Ke Huaigu said it so bluntly, what a firm trust this should be. To be honest, Liang Youhuan didn't feel that the master was out of courtesy, but because of this honesty, he felt that Ke Huaigu was more responsible and more worthy of the position of head in comparison.
Ke Huaigu saw that the two apprentices in front of him were frightened by his words, and the expressions on his face seemed to freeze frame, he couldn't help but feel extremely funny, and laughed twice to ease the subtle atmosphere among the three of them before explaining: "Don't be too busy being surprised, don't be surprised first, listen to the teacher say a few words from the heart, if you still feel that there is anything wrong, then it doesn't hurt." As he spoke, Ke Huaigu restrained his smile, replaced it with an extremely solemn look, he fixed his mind, and said seriously and seriously: "Maybe you will think that today's words for the teacher are really disrespectful to the current head, and you feel that the teacher is greedy and obsessive, and he is really not worthy of being a teacher." But have you ever thought that in terms of the teacher's current position in the Puritanism, even if someone else gets in the way, what benefits can I lose? As early as when Qimo joined the teaching, he openly said that he would not accept any more apprentices in this life, so I sought the position of head of the sect and did not recruit disciples for a wide range of purposes. The teacher's temper is old-fashioned and tough, not as mellow as your other uncles and uncles, he has been alone for decades, and he has secretly offended many people. You've been coming to Puritanism for some time. Have you ever seen our sect receive half a cent of incense money from secular people? Our Shangqingjiao is a Qingshui Yamen, and the living expenses on weekdays are nothing more than pointing to the disciples who occasionally help people look at feng shui numerology, go out to help people block a disaster, and set up a formation to capture one or two policemen There is no way, and they happen to run to the unlucky thieves on the territory of Shangqingjiao. Even such a trivial matter can't be encountered a few times a year, and if it weren't for the vegetarian teaching, we would have been unable to make ends meet in Puritanism. Even if I am the leader, I don't have any money to scavenge. So I seek the position of the head of the family, and the third is not to fill my pockets. So what's left? It's just the right to command all the disciples of the whole church. But the right can only be used in the right place to be considered a famous teacher, and the teacher is already at this age, can he still take you to rob the family? Even if I'm not tired, if there is no one in the sect, can the other elders tolerate me doing nonsense? Tell me, therefore, what is the use of me coming to the position of head of the house? Is it just to compete with my senior brother and your Qin Jishi for your own strengths? (To be continued.) )
