Volume 5: The First Song Five Hundred and Fifty-Six: Calm (2)
After returning to the sect from Ranshigang this time, Zhang Yi learned a message from Zong Fang's mouth, which was about Hua Cong.
To be precise, it was what happened after Hua Cong was brought back to Meng Cailou.
When Hua Cheng was taken out of the cold pool, he couldn't wake up like fake death, and the same was true after being brought back to Meng Cailou, Meng Cailou was also one of the six sects in Zhongzhou, and there must be a lot of strange people in the sect who had the ability, but after I don't know how many people checked and treated, Hua Chong was still half-dead and in a deep coma, and in the end, those elders in Meng Cailou could only give up. It is said that it is the strange aura in his body that maintains Hua Cong's immortality now, but in the eyes of those elders, that aura is already water without a source, a tree without roots, if that aura is exhausted one day, Hua Cong will definitely die.
Although he couldn't ask anything from Hua Cong's mouth, it didn't delay Meng Cailou at all to launch the suppression of Hua that had been brewed a long time ago, and I don't know if Hua was too arrogant and domineering in Meng Cailou on weekdays or if he didn't know how to be a person and offended people in the past, but now because his own children had a Chongling blood cultivator, he was attacked by the high-level of Meng Cailou, and Hua was hit hard in Meng Cailou this time:
First of all, there are no more people from the Hua clan in the core decision-making layer of Meng Cailou similar to the Five Spirits Sect Council;
secondly, the people in charge of some key points in Meng Cailou can no longer use monks with the surname Hua;
Thirdly, most of the monks in the Hua clan were sent out from afar, and they were sent out in a scattered manner, so that they could not form a group, and each of them was assigned some unimportant idle positions.
It can be said that after the incident of Hua Cong, Meng Cailou's Hua clan lost his authority, his vitality was greatly damaged, and he almost collapsed, and he wanted to regain Meng Cailou's trust and grasp the power in Meng Cailou again, and I don't know how long it would be later, and some people even asserted that in a few years, the Hua clan would be completely depressed and would have no chance to turn over.
In fact, there are not many people in the Five Spirits Sect who know about this matter, and the ordinary disciples in the sect don't know about it at all, even if it is the five people of Qian Chao, they have not heard the news, the reason is very simple, the five of them are not the same people in the sect, and they are not interested in inquiring about these at all.
And for the five clans in the Five Spirits Sect, Zong, Jing, Huan, Feng, and Zhang, this is very important news, because their identities are almost identical to those of Meng Cailou's Hua clan.
What made the five clans of the Five Spirits Sect pay the most attention was that in the process of Meng Cailou's great change, not only did the Hua clan always bow their heads and dare not have any resistance, even if the rest of Meng Cailou's clan had feelings such as hurting them, they didn't dare to make any sound, let alone make any moves.
Thinking that before the launch, Meng Cailou had made all the preparations, and once the Hua clan was dissatisfied or had any drastic moves, they would immediately suppress it.
The five clans of the Five Spirits Sect are most concerned about the attitude of the sect towards the internal big family, so this matter is only discussed most fiercely within the five clans of the Five Spirits Sect, and it is naturally listened to by their nephews in their later generations, and it is therefore spread among those big rumors.
Zong Fang was still very emotional when he said this, what did Meng Cailou Hua clan also a big family that has been inherited for I don't know how many years, it has been entrenched in Meng Cailou, and the power is huge and stable, I didn't expect the embankment of thousands of miles to collapse in the anthill, just because Hua Cong actually set off such a big wave, under the collapse of the building, the people of the Hua clan were actually as embarrassed as a monkey that had fallen a tree.
Zhang Yi was also very touched after hearing the news, but his thoughts were completely different from Zongfang's, he thought that if his identity was also revealed one day, then the fate of the Zhang clan in the Five Spirits Sect was probably not much stronger than that of the Meng Cailou Hua clan.
But Zhang Yicai doesn't care about this, starting from his experience, he only has hatred for the Wuling Zhang clan and no emotion, and if one day the Zhang clan is implicated because of him, he will only feel happy.
However, the matter of Meng Cailou's Hua clan is just the beginning, and the big and small people in the Five Spirits Sect only listen to this as a new thing, but the later development is a little beyond the imagination of these gentlemen.
The reason why Meng Cailou's Hua clan has today, on the surface, is due to the fact that his younger generation has gone astray and become a Chongling blood cultivator, no matter what other deep-seated reasons there are, after the Hua clan's incident happened, it naturally made the big families within the six sects of Zhongzhou begin to think deeply about their own foothold, and how to discipline their descendants and nephews is naturally also a major problem.
First of all, starting from Meng Cailou, the remaining clans of Meng Cailou almost unanimously began to strictly discipline their own descendants and grandchildren. Soon, this trend spread from Meng Cailou, and almost all the big families within the six sects of Central Continent began to do so.
As far as the Five Spirits Sect is concerned, those great gentlemen have often been called in front of their respective elders recently to either lecture or check their cultivation, and if the elders are not satisfied, it is common for them to scold and even be grounded and punished.
The big people in the Five Spirits Sect were all complaining because of this, and Zong Yan, Zhang Yi and others were even more troubled by this, especially Feng You, who was repeatedly punished by his elders for his absurdity, and I heard that he was recently grounded in his residence and was not allowed to come out to mess around.
But this is not all the impact caused by Meng Cailou Hua's affairs, what will happen next makes Zong Fang like a lightning strike, which makes Lou Qingyao a little caught off guard.
As mentioned earlier, those big families in the six sects of Central Continent began to strictly discipline their younger generations and nephews, but they had to discipline their juniors in front of them, so no matter where they went to play and relax, or what relatives stayed in, they were all called back to their elders.
And in this way, the identity of one person in the Five Spirits Sect is very abrupt and embarrassing.
That is Lou Qingyao.
She came to the Five Spirits Sect to participate in the Centennial Confession, but in fact, with her identity, she only needs to go through the motions, originally the Five Spirits Sect and the Lion Building have discussed, and the disciples of the Lion Building who stayed in the Five Spirits Sect do not include Lou Qingyao, and Lou Qingyao himself was forced to stay in the Five Spirits Sect and not leave, the purpose is to get the eggs of Qingluan. Her approach was very out of line at the time, which embarrassed the elders of the Lion Forest at that time, and now after the incident of Meng Cailou Hua's family, Lou Qingyao's practice at that time became a model of disobedience to the discipline of the elders among the descendants of the Lion Lin Lou family, and even the senior management of the Lion Forest began to ask about Lou Qingyao's affairs.
Disobeying the arrangement of the elders and changing the arrangement of the sect long ago, Lou Qingyao did not know that her name had been mentioned many times in the mouths of the elders in charge of the lion forest.
Therefore, news has just spread from the Lion Forest to Lou Qingyao's ears, saying that the Lion Forest is discussing this matter with the Five Spirits Sect, and wants to bring Lou Qingyao back to the Lion Forest from the Five Spirits Sect as soon as possible.
When he heard the news, Lou Qingyao's heart sank.
Her time in the Five Spirits Sect is not short, during this period she has been with the sect and the snake, but in this way, she has not even seen a shadow of what she wants most, how can she be willing!
As for Zong Fang, he got the news from his own parents, and it was impossible for the Zong family to agree with him and Lou Qingyao, and telling Zong Fang the news was just to let him stop this thought as soon as possible.
Naturally, Zong Fang was stunned immediately after knowing this, and wanted to ask for a few words in front of the elders, but he didn't want to be reprimanded more severely.
In fact, Lou Qingyao was too worried, now whether she wanted to continue to stay in the Five Spirits Sect, or the Lion Forest wanted to take her back immediately, it was up to the elders of the Five Spirits Sect Council Hall to decide, and Tang Bonian had already arranged it, Lou Qingyao would naturally return to the Lion Forest, but only when Tang Ping's five people needed her to go back!
……
In addition to this news, Zhang Yi also learned another news that shocked him during this time...... Ahn Jae-yin actually died outside!
He knew that this news was very accidental, one day in the sect passing by An Zaiyin's cave, here to explain that Zhang Yi in and out of the cave will often pass by An Zaiyin's cave, after apprenticeship, An Zaiyin naturally wants him to keep this master-apprentice relationship secret, An Zaiyin once said, not to let others notice, to avoid the eyes and ears of others The most important thing is not to deliberately do nothing, but it will be noticed by someone with a heart, and really hide your identity to make yourself stand out from the crowd, no different from everyone else, what to do is to do it naturally, It's the same with anyone, that's the key.
Zhang Yi was very convinced by this, so he usually did not shy away from passing by the door of An Zaiyin's cave.
It has been a long time since An Zaiyin went out to hide from the Five Spirits Sect, and during this time, Zhang Yi passed by in front of the door of the cave mansion that was not very inconspicuous more than once, and the gate was closed from beginning to end. And on this day, he suddenly found that the door of the cave was open!
Ahn Jae-yin is back!
This is what makes Zhang Yi most uneasy, the doubts in his heart are still there, thinking that the Five Spirits Sect temporarily let himself go just to find out who his master is, and now that An Zaiyin has returned, his situation will be even more dangerous!
Is there any way to avoid the possible eyes and ears of the Five Spirits Sect and pass the news to An Zaiyin?
This was the first question that came to Zhang Yi's mind.
But just when he was thinking like this, he suddenly saw a few foundation building monks coming out of the gate of the cave, which made Zhang Yi feel even more wrong, An Zaiyin has no disciples, what are these people here for?
"Senior brothers," Zhang Yi hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but stop and ask, "...... are you?" ”
One of the foundation building monks seemed to know Zhang Yi's identity and replied:
"Oh, Senior Brother Zhang, let's clean up this cave mansion, and when we go back, Elder Xue Ya will move over, and this will be our master's cave mansion in the future."
"But...... Isn't this an Elder An's cave? Zhang Yi asked again.
The Tsukiji monk looked at him with some surprise, and then said as if he understood something:
"It seems that Senior Brother Zhang doesn't know yet, yes, this was indeed Elder An Zaiyin'an's cave mansion before, but unfortunately, Elder An has fallen outside, and the natal lamp he left in the sect has long been extinguished, it is said that because of Elder An's affairs, the sect also sent someone to investigate, alas, in the end, I don't know why Elder An suffered misfortune, this place has been empty for a long time, my master thinks that the scenery here is not bad, much stronger than his old man's current cave mansion, so he said hello to the sect and wanted to move over, A few of our senior brothers came over to help the master clean up first, and the things left by Elder An were sealed and handed over to the sect for safekeeping. ”
The natal lamp is an oil lamp made by the sect with secret methods after the monks of the Five Spirits Sect build the foundation, and the name of a monk is engraved on the lamp base of each natal lamp, and the monk has to squeeze out a drop of his essence blood to stay in the lamp during the production process, and the lamp will always be bright until the monk encounters misfortune outside or cannot break through the bottleneck and his life is exhausted and falls, then his natal lamp will be extinguished. The place where these natal lamps are placed in the sect is an important place, and there are special people to take care of them, and there are people who check them every day, and An Zaiyin's one is naturally also in it.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi only felt as if he had been hit with a few hammers in his chest, and he desperately suppressed it so that the other party could see it, and asked:
"Elder Ann...... It's fallen! When did it happen? ”
"Eh, this is early, I heard my master say that it happened during the Chengguan Grace test, but at that time, my master was not good at moving over immediately, no, until now, the master has only opened up to the sect to ask for this cave...... What's the matter, is Senior Brother Zhang very familiar with this Elder An? ”
"Oh no, I just pass by here often when I go in and out, and Elder An doesn't have any disciples, so I'm just curious to see a few."
"I see, then we will be close, and Senior Brother Zhang will have more time to walk around."
"Good!"
After speaking, Zhang Yi said goodbye to those people, and after turning around, his steps were obviously a little scattered.
Not only was his steps a little messy, but his heart was even more chaotic!
Ahn Jae-yin...... His master...... It's fallen!
A spiritual blood cultivator who has cultivated as a knot...... He's dead!
