Chapter 373: The Family Affair is Decided
"Since the Emei Sword Sect has been overwhelmed by the maintenance of the Heavenly Ladder for so many years, why don't you let the Tianwei Sect take over? We can work under the supervision of the major sects, and we will definitely not have any thoughts about climbing the ladder, and of course we will not let your sect continue to subsidize it......" Xuan Zhen's face was sincere, as if he was a Shenzhou living **.
"Old fox! Li Jiangting scolded secretly in his heart, turned around and no longer talked about Xuanzhen's old way, but said to the head of Baili: "The three chapters of the covenant of the ladder to heaven are jointly determined by the patriarch of Tianyi and the monks of the world, and the sect has a clear conscience and has never violated the agreement!" As for what outsiders think about in their hearts, we don't care.
If the major sects really have doubts in their hearts, they can discuss it jointly with the heads of the five major sects, but I have no right to comment on this matter! This time, I came to Jiankong Island, just to ask for marriage and not to talk about anything else! ”
He is avoiding the important and lightly changing the topic......
The heads of Baili fell into contemplation again, and their hearts were still swaying from side to side, Lin Xian's words just now did have a certain effect, but could it really dispel the concerns in the hearts of everyone on Sword Sky Island? That's a ladder to the sky!
"I'm not done yet, am you?" Lin Xian saw the master's interjection just now, so he stood quietly next to him, and now another sentence suddenly popped up.
Li Jiangting's scalp was numb for a while, this-stirring stick is really endless, right? wants to use strong means to shut up Lin Xian, but he is not as strong as others! I really feel a little helpless......
"When the ladder to heaven was first built, it was said that it would be opened once a year, and each time it could allow a great monk to ascend to the immortal realm! Because the aura of heaven and earth was still abundant at that time, and there were many great monks in the world waiting to ascend, it was stipulated that they would step on the ladder of climbing the sky in the order of registration!
But today, there is a lack of spiritual energy, and there are less than 100 ascended monks in the entire Shenzhou Continent, why is it that one person a year is still not ranked? As a result, countless great monks have run out of life, and hundreds of years of penance have turned into flowing water......"
"Boom!" Lin Xian's words were like a bomb being thrown into a pond, and one stone stirred up a thousand waves!
In fact, this principle is very simple, and someone should have thought of it a long time ago. However, for thousands of years, it has become a habit for monks all over the world to wait in line for the quota of the ladder, and the long years have made the monks of Shenzhou naturally think that the quota of the ladder is extremely precious and very difficult to obtain!
But I never thought that there was a difference between ancient and modern aura, and the number of ascended great cultivators was even more different, and the number of places on the ladder was not as sought-after as before!
The number of Ascended Great Cultivators in the entire Shenzhou Continent should be about half of the five major sects and many small sects, plus scattered cultivators, and the total number of people is only about seventy or eighty! Coupled with the hidden power of the major sects, as well as some people who live in seclusion among the scattered cultivators, it is impossible to imagine that there will be more than a hundred people.
Even if you are unlucky enough to be in last place, it will be your turn in a hundred years? A hundred years is an incomparably long time for ordinary people, but it is nothing to the great cultivators who have ascended to the realm! Even the crane-haired old monk in the hall may be able to survive for another hundred years!
Li Jiangting's face was like ashes, how could he answer this question? Could it be that the Emei Sword Sect would rather not open the ladder for the sake of strange goods, and also charge a high fee for use? As a result, countless monks ran out of longevity, and countless years of cultivation turned into ashes?
"Li Zhenren, please answer this question!" The white-haired old monk stood up suddenly, stared at Li Jiangting with his eyes like lightning and yelled!
He originally resolutely supported an alliance with Emei, but this was the first time he showed his dissatisfaction with the Emei Sword Sect! This old monk had applied for the ladder thirty years ago, but he had not waited for a place, and the anger that had been suffering for thirty years finally broke out!
If he knew that Tao Linyong had been waiting for six or seven years to apply, he would probably be even more angry!
"It's ...... This is because the ladder has been overwhelmed for thousands of years, so now it can't be opened once a year, and can only be opened after maintenance to meet the use standard, which is also to prevent the ladder from completely collapsing and collapsing...... Li Jiangting defended.
This explanation was unbearable, Lin Xian didn't give him the slightest chance, interrupted Li Jiangting's words and asked, "Why did the Emei Sword Sect never disclose this news?" Why did you refuse the request to help with maintenance? In the third chapter of the covenant, it is said that the ladder to heaven is jointly built and shared, but no one has complied with it at all? ”
Lin Xian's three questions didn't give Li Jiangting time to think at all, and he threw them over like arrows!
"It takes the head of the sect to make a decision to jointly maintain the ladder, and I have no right to ......"
Get! Li Jiangting is coming back again, saying that he can't call the shots, and he has almost become a universal shield!
How can such perfunctory words satisfy everyone? Everyone in the hall looked at him with angry faces, and his voice grew weaker and weaker......
When the head of Baili heard this, he suddenly stood up from his seat, stared at Li Jiangting and said word by word: "Then you go back and inform your sect Lingjue that the head of the fifteenth and fourth major sects will visit Emei in person next month to discuss the matter of climbing the ladder!" ”
There was no trace of blood on Li Jiangting's face, and the words of the head of Baili actually clearly rejected the alliance, but he didn't say it directly!
When he came to Jiankong Island this time, not only did he not achieve the goal of forming an alliance with Jiankong Island to suppress the Tianwei Sect, but he might have promoted the situation of the other four major sects to fight against the Emei Sword Sect together, which was really a big defeat! How do you explain it to the senior brother in charge this time......
At this point, Li Jiangting could only reluctantly leave the hall. When he walked out of the gate, he stumbled and almost tripped over the threshold, which is very rare for a great monk to happen!
Of course, this situation occurred, firstly, Li Jiangting had just collided with Lin Xian's Yuan Shen with all his strength, and he was now a little unstable. Second, the mission of this trip to Jiankong Island has completely failed, resulting in the soul not giving up!
Seeing that it was done, Xuan Zhen Lao Dao couldn't help but smile, and said to the head of Baili: "Old Dao congratulations to the head of Baili for choosing a good family business, Miss Baili will definitely be harmonious in the future, and spend a good full moon......
"When did I say yes?" The head of Baili said strangely.
"Uh...... Belch...... But all the people who courted the Emei Sword Sect are gone? We're just the only one left......" Xuan Zhen Lao Dao was dumbfounded and stammered.
"What about the rest of your family? It's not that the daughter of our Baili family can't get married! Your dowry is indeed very generous, but Jiankong Island is not one of those small families, do you still need to sell your daughter? The head of Baili said disdainfully.
"This ...... This ...... "Xuan Zhen is completely speechless, after all, he is not professional as a matchmaker?"
"Ahem...... "It's Lin Xian's turn to come out!" I don't know what conditions the head of Baili has, how can I agree to Mu Renjie's proposal? ”
"I don't have any conditions, as long as you can convince me to marry my daughter willingly!"
Lin Xianyi grinned, what he was most afraid of was that there were no special requirements for this kind of statement, and it was often the most difficult to get it in the end!
How to convince the other party to get tired? Dowry? It's already rich enough, and there's no point in adding more! What is the man's family situation? The master has praised Na Mu Renjie for a long time just now, except that he didn't say that he is more intelligent than Zhuge , but there are really no words?
With a roll of his eyes, Lin Xian suddenly found that there was a faint smile on the face of the head of Baili, and then thought about his attitude towards the Emei Sword Sect's courtship a few days ago, and suddenly realized something in his heart.
"Miss Ying Ning is the pearl of the head of Baili, of course you love her very much, and you are afraid of falling in your hand and holding it in your mouth for fear of melting!" Lin Xian suddenly began to talk nonsense: "I guarantee that after Miss Baili marries Mu Renjie, all the property in the family will be controlled by the woman, and all the housework in the family will be taken care of by the man, and the woman will never talk about the east and the west, and the woman will never fight the chicken......"
"Poof! Haha......" As soon as Lin Xian's words came out, the hall suddenly burst into laughter! The eight disciples of the Tianwei Sect who were holding the dowry gift in their hands almost even fell to the ground with the bridal gift brocade box in their hands!
Xuan Zhen Lao Dao's old face turned purple, and he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and get in! Lin Xian's face was as smug as usual and continued: "...... The man guarantees that all actions are under command, and he will never make any claims on his own! Wholeheartedly put Miss Baili's happiness first......"
At this moment, even the head of Baili couldn't hold back, and hurriedly waved his hand to tell Lin Xian to shut up, otherwise he might have to laugh out loud! "You kid can really talk! As long as Mu Renjie can do one-tenth of what you said, why not marry Ning'er to him? ”
As soon as Lin Xian heard that there was a door, he immediately climbed up the pole and said: "I don't dare to guarantee that it will be completely done, but it's no problem to achieve seven or eight points!" And Miss Baili can also set the house rules, if she is annoyed by Mu Renjie, she will use punishment methods such as kneeling on the washboard and taking the big top to ensure that he will be honest from now on! ”
"Poof! Haha......" The head of Baili finally couldn't hold back, and said with a laugh: "In this way, let's marry Ning'er to Mu Renjie, but the family matter will be set in three years, and now it is the critical juncture of her cultivation!" ”
"It's done?" Xuan Zhen Lao Dao looked at Lin Xian inexplicably, he was just messing around like this, how could the family matter become a family matter?
"The head of Baili really knows about the affair between his daughter and Mu Renjie!" Lin Xian put on an unfathomable appearance in front of his master, but he secretly thought in his heart.
Yes, the head of Baili is really clear about his daughter's relationship with Mu Renjie! Baili Yingning often sneaks out of the mountain protection array at night to pass on the letter to Mu Renjie, how can he hide it from the head of Baili who controls the big array? Even the letters were stopped by him and peeked at several times!
Please, this is a Shenzhou continent similar to ancient China, you ask me a question about privacy? Hehe...... Isn't that too much to think about......
