Chapter 25 Straighten out the ranks

That night, Ding Peng returned to the mouth of the first-line heavenly canyon overnight, as for the old craftsman and the little couple, Ding Peng stayed by them on the shore of Mingjing Lake, anyway, he held the only access to the gorge, even if it was a fly, don't want to fly out. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When he came back, Li Kun had already set up more than a dozen tents with people, this kind of temporary walking tent was relatively small, Ding Peng didn't care about himself, let Li Kun live in a tent with himself, and the two little girls lived in a tent, and then the others crowded into the remaining tents and made do with the night.

Because of the seizure of the tent, two horse bandits and a dart division also clashed, fortunately Ding Peng let Li Kun pass in time, did not form a situation of brawl between the two parties, Ding Peng was furious, punished three people are not allowed to enter the tent again, just outside for one night, and sternly warned everyone that if such an internal fighting incident occurs again, it will be severely punished.

The night in the mountains was extremely cold, and the three people who were driven outside were almost frozen, not to mention sleeping, and the three of them were almost frozen to death after trotting outside to warm up at night, which was a painful lesson, and the next morning, the three who were originally unruly became extremely honest, and they no longer dared to cause trouble easily.

Early in the morning, Li Kun woke everyone up according to Ding Peng's instructions, dismantled the tent, and set off again to advance towards the Qianhu Basin.

Someone is going to ask, why didn't Ding Peng take people to Mingjing Lake overnight to rest? Ask this to be a layman, you must know that the whole team has been walking for a day and a night, and on the way they just hurriedly ate a little something, and when they arrive at the first line of the Heavenly Canyon, they can be regarded as exhausted, both mentally and physically are already extremely tired, if Ding Peng asks them to walk more than ten miles, I am afraid that it will cause some permanent damage to their bodies, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Besides, the reason for rushing ahead is to worry about any dangers and changes on the road, and now that he has entered the secret place, there is no problem in terms of safety, so there is no need to rush to the road, it is better to rest at the mouth of the canyon for one night, and after arriving at Mingjing Lake in good spirits on the second day, Ding Peng can make some arrangements resolutely.

On the one hand, they were attracted by the beautiful lake, and on the other hand, after a night's rest, everyone's minds also changed subtly, at least there was less anxiety and fear, and more curiosity and exploration of the unknown.

That's right, Ding Peng gave them plenty of time, just to let them think and doubt, today he will explain the doubts to everyone, so that if you take a shot and go through a process, normal people will accept the idea of being at ease with what they encounter, and will not easily go to extremes.

The little couple, ah, they should be called by their names Shi Jian and Xiu Gu, have been waiting by the lake for a long time, and the old man is still sleeping according to Shi Jian, Ding Peng asked Shi Jian to wake him up, and then rectify the people here, in fact, it can't be called rectification, just let them stand in a slightly neat queue, Ding Peng is not to train the army, just see it.

After a while, Shi Jian came over with a sleepy-eyed old man, the old man kept yawning with his mouth wide open like a child who hadn't woken up, Li Kun scolded: "Come here, stand there, yes, that's there, the old man wants to lecture and cheer up." ”

The old man complained: "The old man will be sleepy as soon as he is free, you should quickly find something to do for the old man, otherwise I might as well go back and sleep." ”

Li Kun's eyes widened, and before he could say more, Ding Peng waved his hand and smiled at the old man: "You will have something to do right away, but I'm afraid you won't be able to do it then." ”

The old man clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, okay, but first say okay, build a broken house and set up a few tents or something, don't look for the old man, the old man can't look down on him." ”

"Okay! You always seem to have great talents, so you can't overdo it. Ding Peng was very patient and said with a smile: "I will definitely find a big job for you with a difficult and challenging job, soon, I promise." ”

After speaking, Ding Peng no longer paid attention to the old man, his expression gradually became solemn, his sharp eyes glanced at everyone, and slowly spoke: "I think everyone must have a lot of questions in their hearts, but they don't dare to ask, they don't dare to say it, it's okay! There is only one purpose, we will be a group in the future, so to speak, we must share weal and woe, live and die together, and I don't want any one to have doubts, doubts, distrust or half-heartedness. ”

After a pause, Ding Peng looked over one by one again, everyone's faces were either dazed, or honest, or awe-inspiring, or timid, as for what they thought in their hearts, they didn't know, but Ding Peng didn't bother to explore, what he cared about was the future, not the present, he believed that after all kinds of means were used, they could be completely controlled.

As for subduing people's hearts, Ding Peng didn't dare to have such extravagant hopes for the time being, after all, this group of people was forcibly captured by him, and no one wanted to follow him out of sincerity.

After being silent for a long time, Ding Peng estimated that there was already a certain amount of pressure in everyone's hearts, and then slowly spoke: "First of all, let's introduce myself first." My surname is Ding Mingxuan, a person from the Central Plains, and this time I came to the Western Regions thousands of miles away in order to establish a foundation. Ding decided to establish a sect here, recruit a wide range of disciples, and carry forward the martial arts of my Ding family. I am honored to tell you that you are the first batch of disciples selected by Ding. ”

Everyone was in an uproar, although the voice was suppressed as much as possible, but you let out a surprise, I said a whisper, and the gathering of all kinds of voices was not small, and a few bold ones were still talking to their companions, whispering, Li Kun wanted to stop, Ding Peng waved his hand, at this time, let them communicate with each other, collective communication is easy to unify thoughts, and it also saves Ding Peng some saliva.

Suddenly, a young dart master of the Zhenwei Dart Bureau clasped his fists and saluted, and said to Ding Peng: "Ding Ye, I am Hu Yanping, the executioner of the Zhenwei Dart Bureau, and I am very grateful to Ding Ye for saving my life from the hands of the horse bandits, and I will be rewarded in the future." Ding Ye is ambitious and wants to create a majestic career in this reckless land, and we also admire it very much. It's just that there is some reluctance in the next part, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

Ding Peng glanced at Hu Yanping with deep meaning, admired the young dart master's calm and calm attitude, nodded slightly, and said: "Since you have doubts, of course you can speak out, Ding has already said that today is to answer your questions, and we will all be a family in the future, there is nothing that should be said or not, please say." ”

Hu Yanping's heart jumped, Ding Peng's words were very beautiful, but the sentence "will be a family in the future" has sealed his reluctant wishes, originally according to the results of Hu Yanping's discussion with his companions, everyone advocated not to anger Ding Peng, but they didn't want to stay and do other people's apprentices, the best way is to use the "ransom" method, let the dart bureau give some money to exchange himself and others back, but according to the current situation, the other party seems to be going to condemn them, and is not ready to release people.

Hu Yanping pondered his words for a while, and said very sincerely: "Master Ding, being able to become your apprentice is a blessing created by three lives, but I can't hide it, I and other families are old and young, all of them are people who drag their families, and their families are thousands of miles away in Xining Prefecture, which is really involuntarily. How about this, I will wait for a book, I can ask the dart bureau to find a group of talented children for Ding Ye, these children will be carefully cultivated by Ding Ye, and I will have a chance to come in the future, I will wait for one to be older, and the other to return...... The heart is like an arrow, and it can only be ...... Other ways to repay Ding Ye for saving his life......"

Speaking of the back, Hu Yanping looked at Ding Peng's gradually gloomy face, the more he spoke, the more difficult it became, beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead, but he still gritted his teeth to make the meaning clear.

Silence, dead silence, everyone in the dart game sweated for Hu Yanping, but the horse bandits were gloating, but they didn't dare to squeak, waiting to see how this budding bird would end.

"Finished?" Ding Peng didn't get angry, just asked lightly.

Hu Yanping gritted his teeth, tried not to tremble in his voice, and replied: "Ding Ye, after I finished talking in my heart, Ding Ye can not agree, I just tell the truth." ”

"Well, that's good!" Ding Peng smiled, this smile made the nervous Hu Yanping a little relaxed, but only Li Kun, who had been with him for a long time, knew that this smile was fake, and Ding Peng was already angry.

But the strange thing is that Ding Peng did not attack his anger, he said in a gentle tone almost like a nag: "Yanping, let me call you like this, you are doing a good job, you can say what is in your heart, just believe me Ding Xuan, you can stand up regardless of danger and speak for others, this courage and bravery are very good qualities, to be honest, I appreciate you." But ......"

"I can't promise you, though. I believe you should be able to see that this Qianhu Basin has a secret topography and a special environment, but Ding has been looking for several years, traveled all over the north and south of the river, and finally found such an excellent feng shui treasure in this Saiwai Snow Mountain. ”

The hearts of Hu Yanping and even many people present sank, Ding Peng said so, and put his words in the clear, then it was equivalent to sealing the way out, and everyone had only one choice, which was to stay and become his disciple.

Or there is another way, that is, death, but who has so much courage to commit suicide, especially after the catastrophe does not die, people cherish life more, and no one will take that road until they are truly desperate.

Everyone fell silent again, Hu Yanping had nothing to say, and the two horse bandits who originally wanted to follow did not dare to speak out, Ding Peng had already explained his words, who was impatient and dared to try to challenge his patience?

Ding Peng's voice sounded slowly: "You once said that you are willing to follow me, whether it is true or false, Ding must be worthy of this trust, I can assure you that you will never regret today's choice, until that day the sect will completely gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, and its prestige will spread far and wide, and the glory of the sect will have a share of you......"

Ding Peng launched the Dafa of flickering, and flickered hard, this group of disciples is not only for him, a sect that has not yet been created, but also for other sects in the martial arts, I am afraid that they have never been in a situation, I am afraid that since the rivers and lakes have not been in a strange situation, the disciples are all robbed, and they are forced to get started, which is really ridiculous in the world.

But for Ding Peng's current situation, it is also a last resort, he has to quickly expand the manpower of the sect, but also to ensure absolute security, there is really no more effective way except to rob, fortunately this is only the first batch, and the long-term development in the future naturally cannot rely on this crooked way.

In Ding Peng's thoughts, this first batch of manpower can be said to be very important, there must be a lot, but in the long run, it can also be said that it is not important, the important thing is that the sect is grass-roots, others are alone, and they must rely on some helpers to achieve some things that individuals cannot complete independently, these people can be said to be the cornerstone of the foundation, and the cornerstone is of course important.

But in the long run, these people are likely to become his cannon fodder, is cannon fodder important? cannon fodder is indispensable, but the role is not important, after completing their mission, they can be sacrificed mercilessly, even if they are lucky enough to survive, when those disciples collected by normal means grow up, they will also be replaced.

Ding Peng naturally won't tell this, his flickering is mostly some vision for the future, ambition and enthusiasm for the establishment of a career, plus some bragging about family martial arts, and appropriately leave space for everyone to imagine in their hearts that they will raise their eyebrows on the rivers and lakes after they get the magic skills.

This rhetoric is not a temporary intention, in order to fool Ding Peng has been preparing for many days, and even did not hesitate to change his name, Ding Peng changed to Ding Xuan, on the one hand, it is worried that Ding Peng's name will be leaked in the future, causing the investigation of the former enemy, and it is mainly to fabricate a Ding family that was invincible hundreds of years ago, this family has been in seclusion for hundreds of years because of some escapist principles, but it is guilty, and countless peerless magic skills in the family finally aroused the peep of people with hearts, after a huge conspiracy, Ding was slaughtered and wiped out, Ding Xuan ran out alone, but he took away all the martial arts cheats, traveled thousands of miles to come here, and prepared to establish a sect, counterattack the Central Plains for revenge.

There are a lot of balabala, Ding Peng's rhetoric can be said to be in addition to a slight exaggeration, almost seamless, reasonable, and in line with the traditional rules of survival in the rivers and lakes, regardless of whether everyone believes it or not, Ding Peng's purpose is not to make them completely believe, as long as they have a little belief in their hearts, this is a beautiful vision: to become a disciple of Ding Xuan, you can learn the magic skills that have been lost in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and there is the hope of becoming a top master in the rivers and lakes.

Hope, this beautiful word, is an important pillar of all human survival, people can live poor, depressed, unsatisfactory, life lost freedom, but there must be no hope, even if the ethereal hope, can always give people the courage to live and the space for compromise.

This is the cannon fodder that Ding Peng needs, the cannon fodder with hope, the cannon fodder who knows compromise, they are easy to control, they know how to struggle, and there may be hope in their hearts when they die generously.
