Chapter 257: The Covenant. When the alliance is made
The people of this era, although they experienced the pain of foreign captivity, after the expulsion of the foreigners, they became more confident, so confident that they did not know that there would be a more ferocious and cunning foreigner who would enslave them again. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info// update fast //
This is an era when Confucianism was distorted, from the Spring and Autumn Period's 'sword study tour' to the Han and Tang dynasties, but here it was deliberately distorted as 'powerless to tie the chicken' and 'useless', when Confucianism was attached to servility, it became 'rotten Confucianism' and 'sour Confucianism'.
This is the Celestial Empire controlled by a group of corrupt Confucians, it seems to be powerful, but it has rotted in the bones, it can enslave the people, but it can't resist the erosion of foreign races!
Shaolin, Wudang, Wuyue, Emei, Kunlun, Kongtong, Qingcheng, Diancang, or the beggar gang all have their limitations, and the most important thing is that the news is not clear.
Today, on this hall, driven by interests and with the collusion of Lin Han, the eight major sects no longer conceal it, and reveal the secret news they have obtained.
The various sects originally thought that some of the secrets that their sect detectives heard were nothing, as long as they gathered the power of martial arts, or invited a bunch of friends, it would be easy to destroy, and they could even compete for the initiative in the process and seek personal interests for the sect.
But now, the great disaster of the Demon Sect has not been eliminated, and the Five Poison Sects have entered the Central Plains, and there are even more hidden dangers of the Tibetan Border Esoteric Sect, the Shamanism outside the Guanwai, and even the 'Houjin', plus the trouble of the Japanese Bandits, all the forces together are enough to make the Eight Great Sects frightened!
Seeing that everyone had been shocked, Lin Han secretly glanced at Zuo Leng Zen.
Zuo Lengchan was slightly stunned, then reacted, the big and small foxes both smiled, and the next moment, Zuo Lengchan coughed, attracting everyone's attention, and said: "In view of the current situation, martial arts and the court are both internal and external troubles, Zuo is a person in the martial arts, and he can't take care of the court for the time being, but he has contacted the Qingcheng faction Jingchen Dao Chief, the Kongtong faction Xu Daxia, and the head of the Diancang faction Liu to discuss the matter of resisting foreign enemies." ”
Hearing Zuo Lengchan say this, Venerable Jin Guang and Zhen Shanzi had not yet reacted, but Fang Zheng and Chong Xu's faces were extremely unsightly, and their eyes met, expressing the same meaning: the opportunity has been lost!
The stunned of Jingchen Daoren, Xu Huaishan, and Liu Suifeng, the incomprehension of Jinguang Shangren, Zhenshanzi, Fang Zheng, and Chong Xu, Zuo Lengchan all saw it in his eyes, nodded with satisfaction, smiled, and then said: "Today, it happens that the four factions of Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, and Kunlun are all here, so why don't we make an alliance with each other, attack and defend each other, and resist the invasion of evil ways and foreign tribes?" ”
"Okay, Uncle Shi is really righteous, worried about the country and the people, and has the demeanor of Guo Jing Guo who defended Xiangyang City back then, and can be called 'the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people'." Lin Han exclaimed loudly, then looked at the people opposite with a smile, and asked, "I don't know what you think of Uncle Zuo's proposal?" ”
At this time, a few people such as Jingchen Dao and Jin Guang Venerable also reacted, and their expressions were extremely exciting.
Related to the interests of the Wuyue faction, the three factions of Kongtong, Qingcheng, and Diancang naturally agreed to form an alliance, not to mention, Zuo Lengchan has already taken the initiative, and the next alliance will naturally not suffer, Jingchen Daoren, Xu Huaishan, and Liu Suifeng all agreed loudly and expressed their full support.
Among these three factions, Lin Han valued the most was the Diancang faction, they were good at the way of bows and arrows, and if there was really a war, they would be extremely useful on the battlefield. Of course, it is too early to talk about the war at present, but it does not prevent Lin Han from winning over.
As for the other four factions, Venerable Jin Guang and Zhen Shanzi also reacted, and while agreeing to Zuo Lengchan's proposal, they were indeed worried in their hearts, and looked at Fang Zheng and Chong Xuan from time to time.
According to the original plan, it should be Shaolin and Wudang to propose an alliance and occupy the big profits.
Things deviated from the plan, and there was no reason to refuse, not to mention, the four Shaolin factions originally had the idea of proposing to divide the rivers and lakes, but at this time, they just changed the 'division of interests' to a real alliance, and it also had the name of 'righteousness', so that people could not refuse.
Fang Zheng smiled bitterly, raised his palm and said: "Amitabha, it is incumbent on you to eliminate harm in martial arts and save the people from fire and water, and Lao Wei also agreed to the proposal of the head of Zuo. ”
"The master really has Buddha nature and true goodness!" Zuo Lengchan squinted his eyes and praised happily, "Then I don't know what the other three heads mean?" ”
"When the alliance is formed!" Chong Xuan said approvingly, how to say, at the beginning of the establishment of the Celestial Empire, Zhang Sanfeng of the Wudang faction and the Wudang Seven Heroes all made great efforts. Later, the imperial court also secretly gave a lot of benefits to the Wudang faction, enabling them to fight against the Shaolin faction. In public and private, Chongxu will not watch chaos in the court.
Wudang is like this, and the Emei faction is also like this, Guo Jing's family, except for Guo Xiang, all died in the hands of Meng Yuan, and the Celestial Empire can also be regarded as indirectly avenging Guo Xiang, and now they have to resist foreign races, and the Jin Guang Shangren can't oppose it, and immediately agrees.
The last remaining Kunlun faction, seeing that all the seven factions agreed, naturally did not dare to disobey.
After Zhenshanzi agreed, Zuo Lengchan was overjoyed and arched his hand: "Zuo Mou once again thanks you for your carelessness, come, kill pigs and sheep, prepare five animals, worship the sky, and make a covenant!" ”
"Yes, Master!" Immediately, there were Songshan disciples who went down to prepare.
Looking at Fang Zheng and the helplessness on his face, Lin Han almost laughed: Where do you need temporary preparations? It was already ready yesterday, just waiting for the Shaolin Four Sects to enter the urn!
The tone of the alliance was set, and the tension between the two sides dissipated a lot, and the next step was the exchange of information and the division of interests.
In terms of interests, the martial arts halls of the Songshan faction are all over the world, and it is naturally impossible to give up the interests of this piece, and even in Lin Han's eyes, if it coincides with wartime, the martial arts hall can be transformed into combat power in an instant, and it must not be given up.
Even, when the other factions were fighting for restaurants, inns, etc., at the request of Lin Han, the Wuyue faction completely grasped the interests of the carriage and horse dealership, which was for the circulation of news!
The combat power of the martial arts hall, the news of the carriage and horses, coupled with the dark forces secretly mastered by Songshan, the trinity, is extremely useful in wartime, as for restaurants and other industries for the purpose of profit, Lin Han does not attach so much importance to it, after all, the chaos has been revealed!
With the help of Songshan, the three factions of Kongtong, Qingcheng, and Diancang also grabbed a lot of benefits, and under the guidance of Lin Han, these benefits, more or less, will be related to the war.
And the four factions of Shaolin, there is one less person like Lin Han who understands and only cares about fighting for the immediate interests, if it is chaotic, it is likely that the bamboo basket will be empty, and in the end nothing will be gained.
It really came to that point, for the sake of the overall situation, it was impossible for the four Shaolin factions to be embarrassed by the four factions of Wuyue, so that whether it was to help the four factions or to buy people's hearts, the Wuyue faction would be in an absolutely advantageous position.
In this distribution, the eight major sects were all happy, and the atmosphere in the hall was much better.
At this time, Zhen Shanzi suddenly asked, "I am waiting for an alliance, do we want to elect an alliance leader?" ”
"This ......" Zuo Lengchan hesitated for a while, but he was a little moved, and then glanced at Fang Zheng, his heart was stunned, and he hurriedly looked at Lin Han, and sure enough, he saw that he was glaring at himself.
Zuo Lengchan pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "This matter is very important, and you can't be sloppy, why don't you come and listen to the opinions of young people?" ”
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Zuo Lengchan strangely.
Zuo Lengchan smiled: "Xiao Han, tell me, do you want to elect a martial arts alliance leader?" ”
Lin Han stood up, walked to the center of the main hall, bowed as usual, and after tidying up his appearance, he said with a smile: "According to the juniors, I don't agree with the election of the alliance leader at this time!" ”
Fang Zheng and Chong Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, for the position of the leader of the alliance, they wanted, according to their generation, they also had a great advantage, but the alliance matter, after all, was proposed by Zuo Lengchan, plus there is such an old monster as Jingchen, if you really want to count it, Jingchen is half a generation older than them, and he is the same generation as Feng Qingyang.
"Tell me why!" Zuo Lengchan asked with a smile,
Lin Han nodded: "There are three reasons!" ”
Stretching out three fingers, shaking them, and breaking off one of them, Lin Han continued: "First, it's too early!" There is chaos, but there is chaos! Before that, there should not be too much movement, and it is not appropriate to startle the snake! ”
Ding Mian nodded and said, "Well, it makes sense, then you can tell me about other reasons." ”
With the master's echo, Lin Han nodded at him, broke off a finger again, and continued: "Second, the martial arts are too scattered!" Today's martial arts is just like a mass of scattered sand, there are many sects, if you want to unite together, you need the joint efforts of everyone here, when you slowly try to do it, it is really not too radical. Determining a voice too early will not be effective, and it will be a situation where the yang is in defiance of the yin! ”
As soon as these words came out, the eight heads nodded in unison, especially Fang Zheng and Zuo Lengchan, who extinguished the thoughts of the 'martial arts alliance leader', the two sides were opposed, and if they did not gain absolute superiority, even if the elected alliance leader was just a decoration.
Breaking off the only remaining finger, Lin Han sighed: "As for the third, I can't choose the leader of the alliance yet!" ”
"Why is that?" Zhen Shanzi asked in surprise.
Lin Han sighed: "Why do you want to choose the alliance leader?" It's to defend against foreigners! This is not only a simple requirement of high morality, but also a high level of martial arts, and not too old! ”
"Why can't you be too old?" The Venerable Jin asked with squinted eyes.
Lin Han said in a deep voice: "If there is really a war, it may not be able to end in a short time!" Say a word of heart-wrenching, you are too old to hold on! ”
"Uh......"
Everyone looked at Lin Han speechlessly, it was indeed a heart-wrenching word, but I had to admit that it made sense!
Jingchen doesn't have the heart of the alliance leader, but it doesn't matter, and then he comes down to Fang Zheng, Chong Xuan is the elder, and his face is not very good-looking. Behind him is Zuo Lengchan, although he is not young, but after all, he is relatively young, and he has to be highly respected and strong in martial arts, he is still the most suitable.
What's more, if you really want to be young, there is no score, and Lin Han is here......
Just when Fang Zheng was looking at Lin Han with a calm face, a disciple came to report.
"Uncle Master, the five animals are ready!"
