Chapter 288: Mockery and Allegory
readx;? Dong Tiannan was injured in public, and just wanted to stand up to refute, Zhen Wuxing, a senior elder of the Sword Forest in Langxi, said stupidly: "Old Dong, don't be angry if you hear it, let me say something fair." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Dong Tiannan saw that he was an old branch elder, and he didn't want to bully the small with the big, and he hoped in his heart that he could really say a fair word, so he breathed a sigh of relief and sat down again.
I only heard him say faintly: "Hall masters, elders, in my opinion, even if we lie down as disciples, we won't be at the bottom every time, right? Even if we are at the bottom, we won't be able to pass the first level, right?" Therefore, the nest bed cliff must not value the apprenticeship at all, and Hall Master Dong is probably still laughing at us for not knowing practice, making money is big, and the disciple is a ball?"
After a brief silence, the hall burst into laughter.
Even if he had a good relationship with Dong Tiannan and Zong Qiang, he couldn't bear it, Zhen Wuxing said it too badly, and he couldn't help it.
Dong Tiannan's face darkened, especially when he saw that the three sect masters were also smiling, he couldn't wait to take the case.
This is the case, some people feel that it is not in place, and the deputy hall master of the Dao Hall, Wo Wenping, jumped out again, and asked like a new world: "Isn't it? If you want to make money, the Nest Bed Cliff can be compared to the Duck Bridge? I remember that the Duck Bridge Branch Hall has had disciples who have successfully entered the Beast God List for five consecutive years, creating a miracle of the sect second only to the Nest Bed Cliff." Am I right? ”
Hall Master Qiao smiled and said reservedly: "To make money for this sect, it is incumbent upon each of our branches, even if we delay some preaching and teaching for this, I think it is worth it." ”
Okay, this sounds modest, but in fact, the implication is even more arrogant, we will play and dump you seven streets.
On the fairy island, laughter came and went, and some elders didn't dare to drink anymore, and they choked with laughter repeatedly.
A group of people who hurt the master, you say a word, I say a word, I can't shame Dong Tiannan to death.
Dongfang Yu secretly thought that the three most active families, Longxi Jianlin and Duck Bridge, all had a big enmity with him. Although many of their inner disciples were damaged in their own hands, this did not have a great impact on their true disciples. So they are angry, looking for every opportunity to trample on the cliff of the nest.
The main reason for the discussion of the Dao Hall of the other main hall is that the hall master He Weili has a personal grudge with Dong Tiannan, but they seem to have been supported by Deputy Sect Master Cao, and they have the taste of tearing their faces at any cost.
Although on the surface, the people who are against the nest bed cliff today are all related to Dongfang Yu, but he does not sympathize with Dong Tiannan at all. In the final analysis, he is not angry, and he has been at the bottom for five consecutive terms, and he must have an unshirkable responsibility. Even Dongfang Yu knew what the responsibility was, he was too picky, he was reluctant to invest in his disciples, and he deserved to lose.
Seeing that Lord Dong Ya's face was so angry that it was as colorful as opening a dyeing workshop, Zong Qiang finally couldn't help it, and said loudly: "Everyone, in the past fifteen years, how many times has the imperial court publicly announced and commended the sect?
This sentence definitely has a quiet street effect, and most people immediately shut up.
In the past 30 years, the imperial court has publicly announced and commended the sect once, that is, the commendation of the Ten Thousand Souls Immortal Sect, and the commendation of the nest cliff. This is an indisputable fact, and no one can distort it.
Seeing that the "stampede accident" was showing signs of an end, Deputy Sect Master Cao did not hesitate to go on the field in person, and said in a strange tone: "Qiangzi is right, you guys should be careful." The nest bed cliff has produced four true legends with great potential, and they have joined forces to destroy a small city and big family with a three-rank early martial artist suppression array. Maybe this time the Nest Bed Cliff is really a blockbuster, if my guess is right, those four outstanding disciples are the four behind Tiannan, right?"
He deliberately emphasized "joining forces", "early stage martial artists of the third grade", and "small city big family", but did not mention that the four of Dongfang Yu at that time were only at the level of the early to middle stage of the second grade, which made people feel that they had made great contributions just by coincidence, and there was nothing remarkable.
Sure enough, this time it didn't just attract some ridicule. Even the True Transmission disciples behind the hall masters couldn't help but laugh.
You must know that about a quarter of those who can come to the main hall to participate in the discussion are martial artists above the third rank themselves, and even the martial artists at the peak of the second rank are also strong in each branch, and they generally have the ability to challenge beyond the level. For them, four people teamed up to destroy a Sanpin early stage, which was simply a joke, and one person did it.
The clay man also has three points of earthy temperament, Dong Tiannan finally couldn't suppress his anger, took the case, stretched out his hand to the three of them, and said domineeringly: "Why not, Qiao Sibao, Zhen Wuxing, do you dare to bet with me? I bet that this time there will be at least four people in the nest bed cliff who have passed the first stage, and at least one of them will be on the beast god list." Whoever loses, resigns. ”
Sect Master Wan Qianshan's eyes suddenly shot out of essence, and he was about to speak, He Weili also took the case, and said: "Happy! Proud! Bet, whoever doesn't bet is braised eggplant." ”
"Hahaha!"
In the midst of the laughter, Zhen Wuxing said in a weird manner: "I don't have a position, it's unfair to you to bet like this, in this way, if I lose the bet, I will be willing not to be promoted to the hall master for the rest of my life." ”
An old qualification like Zhen Wuxing may be promoted to the hall master at any time, but he has eaten the nest bed cliff, and he has no fear, and he can't help but attract a knowing smile again.
Qiao Sibao was even worse, and said gloomily: "Although you don't raise the bet with one bet or three, but considering that our chances of winning are too great, I still can't help but agree." The scenery of the duck bridge is beautiful, after you step down, welcome to my pension. ”
Dong Tiannan was trembling, stretched out his hand and said, "You...... You ......"
Before he could say anything, Wo Wenping took the initiative to jump out again and said, "Lord Dong Ya won't look down on me, can you count me as one of these gamblers?"
Dong Tiannan crushed the jade cup and said like a muffled roar: "Okay, I'll do it, I hope you don't deny it then." ”
Deputy Hall Master Cao laughed and said, "Today I will be a middle-aged person for you, who would dare to deny the bet I made in front of all the hall masters?"
"That's good," the anger on Dong Tiannan's face suddenly disappeared, and he said with relief: "I'm relieved to have Deputy Sect Master Cao's guarantee, come, I'll toast you." ”
After speaking, Dong Tiannan was full of smiles, stretched out his hand to copy Zong Qiang's cup, and saluted Deputy Sect Master Cao, raised his head and drank it, and shouted: "Good wine." ”
Suddenly, He Weiyan and the others had a feeling of being deceived, this Dong Tiannan wouldn't be thinking about himself, where did he get such strong confidence?
The corners of Deputy Sect Master Cao's mouth lifted an arc, and he thought, this time you still want to clear the customs, and you still want to count on Dongfang Yu to rush to the beast god list, I can't find a place to make you cry.
Seeing that the wind direction was a little deflected for a while, it was inconvenient for everyone to talk about the topics that had been finalized. At this point, everyone began to talk about the old days normally, and the topics became colorful.
This wine has been drunk for nearly an hour, and the sect leader Wan Qianshan suddenly picked up the wine glass, performed the technique of transmitting sound for thousands of miles, and said to all the surrounding islands: "Fellow disciples of the main hall and branch halls of the Immortal Sect, some of you have come to the main hall for the first time and have seen me for the first time. With this in mind, I would like to tell you a story today. ”
As soon as everyone heard that the sect master was actually going to tell a story, they all came to the spirit, especially the disciples on the archipelago who were not qualified to come to the central island, and when they heard this, they were greatly boosted, and their hearts had a good impression of the sect master.
"There is a colony of ants, and they are born under a big tree. From the moment they are born, they begin to climb, and their goal is to climb to the top of a large tree. However, the tree is too big for the ants, and no one knows if they are on the right path."
"Some ants are lucky enough to keep walking on the trunk, so they have a good ride and climb higher and higher. Other ants are a little unlucky, they climb up the branches, although they also go up, but after a few years they will find that they have made very little progress, far behind the ants that crawl on the main trunk. Other ants were even more unlucky, as the branches they had chosen were initially upward, but then they began to fall to the ground, so they climbed back to the ground with great difficulty. ”
Dongfang Yu and the others were listening intently, and at this time, Sect Master Wan said: "Actually, this is like our cultivation, the most important thing is never to be fast, but to find your own path. ”
Dongfang Yu felt like an initiation, and sometimes in the process of cultivation, it is really important to deliberately pause, consolidate, and check one's own gains and losses and direction.
But for some reason, he felt that Sect Master Wan had said to all the disciples that this parable seemed to have another meaning, what was it? He didn't know, but he had already kept it firmly in his heart.
