Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Located in a plain area in the northeastern corner of the country, at the confluence of two large rivers, there is a mountain that is not too high. It is rumored that bandits used to live on this mountain, but now there is a village on the mountain, and the people in the village are also very easy to communicate with the outside world.
Some people say that it is a minority and have a language barrier, some people say that it is actually a border garrison, and some people mythologize it, saying that there are monks living in it, and they have seen people jumping off a cliff without dying.
In this village, people live in the same sect, and they rarely communicate with the outside world, so that many people do not know them. Because they don't have land, they don't even have to fish or hunt, so they don't even have to think about taxes, and of course, they never ask for a penny of state subsidies.
Even this seemingly remote village is also connected to electricity, although there is no Internet, but it can still receive a mobile phone signal, and it is not a complete loss of contact with the outside world.
Although there are only two great rivers confluence here, it is called three? The estuary, and this stockade, is also the location of the sect of Sanhemen. Some of the disciples lived in the village at the foot of the mountain.
"It's been so long, why hasn't Deacon Li come back yet? Did you call the Guo family, what did they say? An old man with sword eyebrows and a ruddy face asked.
"Elder Xu, the disciple has been contacted. The Guo family said that Deacon Li still has some things, they are working on it, and there will be no delay in returning the medicinal materials, and they will send someone to send them over first. ”
"Hmph, Guo Tu, the old horseman, is becoming more and more arrogant, although he is also a deacon of the outer door, but how can he compare with Deacon Li, he dares to let Deacon Li do things for him. If it weren't for the amount of money he sent every year, he would have been able to buy a lot of good things. There will definitely be a heavy punishment. ”
Poor Guo family, most of the money is given to the sect first every year, and in the eyes of one of their elders, Guo Tu is just an object that can be punished at will.
"Elder Xu. The disciples did not contact Deacon Li this time, and none of the disciples brought by Deacon Li were contacted, could there be any accidents? ”
"Accidents? What surprises can there be? In the land of Longjiang, except for Baishuimen, which can be with us for a long time, the others are not enough to see. And we and Baishuimen are also considered well water, not river water, and they have no reason to deal with us. Elder Xu said slowly.
"Yes. Then let's keep waiting. Or do you want to push it again? ”
"Hurry up, the door master is at a critical moment, we need a lot of money and top-grade medicinal materials in exchange for pills. If the gate master succeeds in attacking the ground level, we don't need to be afraid of the White Water Gate anymore, and when the time comes, the territory will be half of the territory. At worst, we can get a third. Turning back is indispensable for everyone's benefits. Elder Xu mentioned the door master, and his tone was very respectful.
"Elder Xu, there is a saying that disciples are unhappy if they don't vomit."
"Say."
"Those elders from the Liudanmen have been powerful and blessed every day, and their strength has not increased over the years, but their temper has grown a lot. The last time a disciple was just a little late in delivering food, he was beaten to death by them! ”
"Huh? How did I not know about this? Elder Xu's eyes narrowed, and he asked in a gloomy tone.
"The disciple also knew. It's still the little six in the restaurant who told me. You said that apart from knowing how to configure the Eliza, a potion that is extremely dangerous to martial artists, what is the use? Cultivation is high, but not enterprising. Occupy a lot of the sect's resources, and they don't even come to the mountain once a year in these years, and they spend the most money, but they have never contributed anything to the sect. ”
"Alright, who told you to say that?" Elder Xu asked seemingly casually.
"The disciple should die, the disciple should not try to talk about the sect elders, and ask Elder Xu to bypass the disciples once."
"Okay, okay, if you have followed me for so many years, I will not lose you. Your qualifications are limited, it's good to be able to enter the dark energy in this life, and if you have another three or five years, after entering the dark energy, you can go down the mountain. Elder Xu waved his hand and said.
"Elder Xu, the disciple doesn't want to go down the mountain, don't drive me away."
"Well, even if you continue to stay in the mountains, it will be difficult to make progress, and you will not go down the mountains to enjoy life. If your child has good qualifications in the future, you can also send them to the mountain. You go down, I'll go to Elder Ge's side and have a look." ”
After this disciple left, Elder Xu closed his eyes and pondered for a while before getting up and going to Elder Ge's side.
"Lao Xu, why do you have time to come to me, don't you have to practice? Now is a good time to practice, and after a while, we will go down the mountain. "Elder Ge saw Elder Xu coming, and he was a little puzzled, this old guy doesn't usually come here to him, and the last time he came was more than three months ago.
"Lao Ge has a guest today, if not, I want to tell you something."
"No, no, the master of the sect is in retreat and cultivation on the mountain, and a few of our elders can't go down the mountain, so how can any visitors come up to me." Elder Ge said with a smile.
"I heard that another disciple died a few days ago?" Elder Xu said it very easily, it seems that the death of a disciple is not uncommon.
"Lao Xu also heard about it? Alas, it wasn't the High Elder, this was already the third disciple he had killed this year. You said that we only have a total of how many disciples, and the sect is not considered prosperous, which makes him kill one of the two heads in three days, when is it a head. The master of the door is in retreat, and we can't control it. Elder Ge shook his head and said with a sigh.
"At the beginning, they were spurned by various sects, if we hadn't taken them in, how could they still be at ease and enjoy life now? I spend the most every year, I travel all over the world, I haven't been to a few places in my own country, and all my money is lost by them. I think it's necessary to tell them that the sect's money should be saved. Elder Xu stared at Elder Ge's eyes, hoping that he would approve of him.
Elder Ge raised his head suddenly, glanced at Elder Xu, and then shook his head and said, "The sect master doesn't come forward, there are three elders alone, and there are some deacon disciples to follow. Besides, our financial source Guo family was also brought by them, so it doesn't seem like it's okay to not let them spend money? ”
"Then let them do this, when the master of the sect goes out, the money of the sect has not been very long in recent years, how can he explain it?"
"You don't need to explain to him, I can give you an explanation!" A loud voice came from the room, and Elder Xu stood up suddenly, glaring at the unfortunate guest.
"Tall, elder, old? You guys? Elder Xu said word by word, and then looked at Elder Ge, everyone has been friends for so many years, are you going to tear your face today?
"That's right, it's me. Are you going to punish me? But let me remind you that the cup of tea you just drank has my bliss. If you don't have Bliss for a month, you will scratch your whole body and die miserably, and that kind of pain, you should not try. Elder Gao said proudly.
Elder Ge avoided Elder Xu's fierce gaze, and then fell silent. Elder Xu went out, but Elder Gao didn't stop him. At the beginning, Elder Ge also wanted to resist, but that kind of taste was really not something that people could bear.
I only hope that after the door master gets out, he can help him relieve his pain. Before the master of the sect goes out, he will give him whatever Elder Gao wants, who will let him take charge of the financial power of the sect. Now that even Elder Xu, who was in charge of the sect's punishment, was also accused, Elder Gao and the others would inevitably be even more unscrupulous. (To be continued!)
