It happened that Yu Liyan was also present, so I asked him, "Uncle Fourteen, what is the clan elder association doing?" ”

Yu Liyan looked at me like an idiot and said, "It's been two years since you went home, and you still don't know what the clan elders do?" You're too concerned about the situation in our family. ”

"Haven't I been running outside for the past two years, how can I have time to understand the situation at home." I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Yes." Yu Liyan nodded and explained to me: "Actually, the clan elders are specially used to check and balance the major fixed gates, do you know why our family has no real power except for the two real power factions such as the eldest and second master, and the other fixed doors have no real power, but they are divided by the clan elders' association." ”

I said: "Aren't Tong Heng and the second master also fixed, they are not divided by the clan elders?" ”

Yu Liyan smiled: "The eldest and second masters are not only Dingmen, but also clan elders. Let's put it this way, the right to speak in our old family has always been held by the clan elders, and every time there is a major event, the elders of each house have to gather together to make a decision through voting. The Gate is only responsible for enforcing the decisions of the Council of Elders. ”

In this way, the family is really like a small court, and the clan elders' association is equivalent to a parliament.

I didn't expect the internal structure of a clan gate valve to be so complicated.

At this time, Practical spoke: "After thousands of calculations, I actually forgot about the clan elders, what a mistake." ”

He was just talking to himself, but he still caught everyone's attention.

Li Huaishanzui quickly asked: "Uncle Yong, what do you mean by this?" ”

Practical habitually tapped his fingers on the coffee table, pondering for a moment before speaking: "Once Yu Ru is at a disadvantage in this battle, I am afraid that he will most likely use the clan elder to put pressure on Ruo Fei. ”

Yu Liyan scratched his head, looking puzzled: "The clan elders will always not interfere in the fights of the juniors, they shouldn't put pressure on Ruofei, right?" ”

Practical shook his head with a heavy face: "Of course they won't put pressure directly, but they have enough reasons to leave the thrift store." ”

As soon as he said this, Yu Liyan suddenly became nervous: "Why are you saying this so scary, why did the clan elders let Ruofei leave the thrift store?" ”

Practical looked a little irritable, he raised his head, looked into Yu Liyan's eyes and said: "In the eyes of the Yu family, if it is not for the three major forces in the Northeast Huang Family, Xinzimen, and Sanqinghui, he has made a lot of friends in the industry after traveling abroad for a year. In the face of such abundant network resources, the clan elders will definitely move some thoughts, even if they don't have that kind of mind, they will also use some tricks and feet to make them think in that direction. ”

I didn't understand the latter sentence, but Yu Liyan understood, and his eyes suddenly widened: "You mean...... Preservation of materials? ”

I couldn't help but interject and ask, "What is a preserved material?" ”

I heard Yu Liyan say: "The so-called preservation of materials, you can understand it as protecting the talents of the pillars of the family. Let's put it this way, it is possible that the clan elders will pull you into the clan elders in advance and implement all-round protection for you. ”

"It's not so much about protection as house arrest." Practical continued: "According to the rules of the family, the people of the clan elders are not allowed to walk around outside at will, but if you are in charge of the thrift store, you must often send out orders." In order for you to enter the Elders' Council, you must first be transferred out of the thrift store. ”

I wondered: "I'm so young, how can I be a clan elder, and I don't have enough seniority!" ”

"This has nothing to do with seniority, if you enter the clan elders' association, you will not immediately become an elder, at most, you will help the clan elders do chores and familiarize yourself with things at home." Practical put his fist on his chin, and his tone was very dull: "But once you leave the thrift store, it is equivalent to losing your foundation, and all the efforts we have made before will be in vain." ”

I'm still a little confused: "But isn't the second master also a clan elder, he rarely stays at home." ”

"The second master is not only the patriarch, but also the fixed door." Yu Liyan continued: "How do you say it...... The clan elders will sit at home and can't go out usually. Dingmen is the façade of the family, and the family depends on them to earn fame outside. Our family gate valves all take care of the face first, and then take care of the inside. You can understand me when I say that, right? ”

I nodded, and then wrinkled my brows together fiercely: "In this way, the so-called preserved materials are to put me under house arrest at home, as long as I don't go out, at least my life will not be threatened." As long as I live, the family will have my connections. To put it bluntly, they are not protecting me, but protecting this layer of connections. ”

Qi Liyan sighed: "That's what happened. Once you are drawn into the clan elders' council, unless you become a fixed door one day, you will never want to leave the family for half a step. ”

Li Huaishan interjected coldly: "Anyway, the second master is so old, just let him succeed to the throne, won't everything be solved?" ”

Huang Yuzhong also chimed in on the side: "I'll see it." ”

Yu Liyan shook off a big eye: "What a fart!" According to the rules of our old family, unless the second master passes away, don't think about succeeding to the throne if you don't have to. ”

Since just now, Qing Yazi has been sitting next to us silently listening to us, at this time he smiled and interjected: "Isn't it just a matter of face, as long as it is not the façade of the old family, even if the clan elders want to protect the materials, they will not be able to put him under house arrest at home." ”

Yu Liyan sighed: "It's easy to say, but if he has only been in the industry for two years, no matter how many contacts he has accumulated, his reputation is so little, how can the old family use him as a façade?" ”

Practical Chao Liyan waved his hand, turned his head and asked Qing Yazi: "Brother Chen, what do you think in your heart, you might as well say it and listen to it." ”

Qing Yazi smiled faintly, looked at me and said, "If you are not good, do you remember what I said to you when I first met you with Kankan Daoist?" ”

I didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, so I raised my eyebrows and didn't respond.

Qingyazi didn't need me to respond, and said to himself: "I told you at the time that there has been no new sect in our industry for many years. ”

Practical was the first to react: "You mean...... If not to start a sect? It works! ”

Yu Liyan was a little confused: "Start a sect? If he wasn't so young and didn't have much reputation in the industry, how could he pull up the sect? Even if he wanted to, the old-timers in the industry couldn't agree to it! ”

Practical shook his head slowly: "If you want to start a sect, if you don't have enough qualifications, but in his hands, he has the most crucial thing." ”

Yu Liyan: "What? ”

"Inheritance," said pragmatically while thinking: "The Ten Oceans, the Book of Luban, Tengyunbu, and the Xuanqi Trigram, in addition to the Xuanqi Trigram, the other three inheritances have been privately owned. These things cannot be passed on to the family, and if they cannot be passed on to outsiders, then they can only be lost. Even in order to perpetuate these traditions, if not, they should be opened. Besides, if it is not a matter of founding a sect, it does not need to be recognized by everyone, as long as those three people are willing to come forward to protect him, there is no problem. ”

In the practical mouth, who else can there be in the "three people" in the practical mouth, except for the three mountains in the industry?

Yu Liyan scratched his scalp and looked sullen, as if he still didn't quite approve of Qing Yazi's proposal.

Practical continued: "There shouldn't be any problems at home, if you have to open a sect, the eldest and second masters are so protective of him, and they will definitely give their full support." At that time, if it is not for the head of the family, it will definitely become a new façade of the family. ”

Qing Yazi also smiled, turned his head and said to me, "I thought you would start a sect, but I didn't expect it to be so soon." This is your life, and you can't escape if you want to. ”

I returned a smile, and then said to Shishi: "Even if I open a new sect, I am not qualified to accept apprentices, after all, I haven't graduated from the school yet." ”

"There is no need to accept apprentices," Practical was also in a good mood at this time, and his face was full of smiles: "Starting a sect is just a name, the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, and the momentum is enough." Besides, with your current cultivation, if you really want to accept apprentices, then you can't mislead people's children? ”

The nervousness just now also disappeared with the smile on the practical face, and now the situation is very good, and everyone's face is indescribably relaxed.

But this ease can't last long, and we still have a lot to do.

Early the next morning, I called Yao Xuanzong and told him about my plan to start a sect.

To be honest, when I called, I was really nervous, after all, my cultivation and qualifications were not good, and if I opened a sect rashly, there was a chance that I would be reprimanded by the old-timers.

But Yao Xuanzong's reaction was completely beyond my expectations, when he heard that I didn't plan to accept apprentices in recent years, the whole person became excited, and shouted, our industry has not seen a new sect for more than a hundred years, and now there is finally another one, he has to come to witness it anyway, and by the way, Zhang Zhenren and Kongyun Dao Chang are also called.

Probably because he was too excited, Yao Xuanzong became very verbose on the phone, shouting for a while to count me a good day for opening a sect, and then shouting to name my sect, as if it was not me who wanted to open a new sect, but he himself wanted to open a new sect.

I'm still a little worried about the attitude of Zhang Zhenren and Daoist Kongyun, but I can't contact the two of them, so it's like asking Yao Xuanzong to help me ask. Yao Xuanzong directly rejected my request, saying that there was no need to ask, Zhang Zhenren and the head of the empty cloud road would support me.

With his words, the big stone in my heart finally fell firmly to the ground.

After hanging up the phone, I was lying alone in bed silly, I didn't expect that after just more than two years in the industry, we were going to become the masters of the industry.

But I didn't have time to be happy all the time, so I quickly collected my heart, went to the old alley and called Li Huaishan and them, and started this day's practice.

By the way, before the second master asked Yu Liyan to help Sun Luyuan find a place to live, Yu Liyan looked for it, but Sun Luyuan was not very satisfied, and finally moved directly into the old alley, sleeping on the sofa in Li Huaishan's house, Huang Yuzhong also moved over yesterday, saying that there was a woman in the thrift store, and it was inconvenient for him to live, or the three old men lived together, and they didn't have to be picked up and cleaned in the morning.
