Chapter 64: The Mansion Stars Tower
"The patriarch is serious."
Wu Yuan smiled and said: "Nanmeng Wu family, the seven branches are like a family, this is the ancestral training, it was taught to me by the elders since I was a child, Wu Yuan dare not forget." ”
Wu Mao took the initiative to bow his head and gave Tianda face.
If Wu Yuan doesn't give some face, I'm afraid that not only the people of the Wu clan, but even Gu Ji, Wu Xiong, and even the high-level of the Hengyun Sect will misunderstand Wu Yuan after they know about it.
But.
Wu Yuan said 'heavy words', from beginning to end, and there was no other Wu Mao's proposal, the sect branch changed banners?
Who knows what the future holds?
"Haha, Wu Yuan, let's go, let's go to the home school and the backyard to take a look, now that you are an elder, you can't help but know something about the Wu family." Wu Mao said with a smile
Warmly invited, Wu Yuan couldn't refuse for a while.
That's it.
Wu Mao and Wu Yuan walked at the front of the line, and several elders of the Wu clan, Wu Xiong and others followed behind, and once again visited the Wu family's mansion, and even went to several 'streets and alleys' where a large number of Wu clansmen lived.
The essential difference from the shopping just now is that.
This time, it's not just a matter of sightseeing!
Wu Mao introduced the Wu family to Wu Yuan in detail, and summoned a steward from all over the Wu family to salute Wu Yuan and confirm the identity of the elder.
This scene.
To the surprise of everyone who followed, they could finally confirm that Wu Mao was not joking or perfunctory Wu Yuan.
It was a real 'elder' to treat Wu Yuan.
Since ancient times, only the name and the instrument cannot be faked.
Wu Mao's fanfare and public confirmation of Wu Yuan's identity, rights and responsibilities means that Wu Yuan will truly mobilize the resources of the Wu family.
At least, no one in the Wu clan dared to question his identity.
After the introduction of the Wu family was completed, Wu Mao welcomed Wu Yuan and his party to the family's specially opened 'restaurant'.
Warm hospitality.
It was not until the afternoon that Wu Yuan refused Wu Mao's invitation to 'stay overnight', and the group left in a carriage.
At the door of the Wu family's mansion, looking at the shadow of the carriage in the distance.
"Great Elder." Wu Mao turned his head and swept his gaze over the Great Elder, as well as several other ordinary elders.
"In your hearts, I'm afraid you're full of anger, and there should be a lot of confusion."
"Go to the lobby and I'll make it clear." Wu Mao said softly: "I believe that after listening, you will all understand." ”
Let's talk about it.
Wu Mao was the first to walk through the door.
Several elders looked at each other when they heard this, and in the end, it was the Great Elder who followed, and the other elders followed.
…… On the horse-drawn carriage on the return trip.
"Childe, in the end, you have received this elder status and silver ticket." Gu Ji sat on the side and said lightly.
"Otherwise, what can you do?" Wu Yuan played with a stack of golden tickets with special materials in his hand!
A tael of gold is worth more than ten taels of silver.
This stack of golden tickets seems to be small, but the face value of each one is 'one hundred taels', and the total value actually reaches 20,000 taels of silver.
"I'm afraid this doesn't match Childe's original intention." Gu Ji said lightly.
"Let Uncle Ji see it." Wu Yuan smiled: "However, I am always a member of the Wu clan, and I can't do too much!" ”
"Since Patriarch Wu Mao is sensible, he has the right to take a look at it." Wu Yuan leaned back on the narrow car seat and closed his mind.
An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Gu Ji's mouth, and he didn't ask any more questions.
……
Wu, inside the council hall.
Many clansmen were not qualified to enter, only the patriarch Wu Mao, the Great Elder, and the other eight elders, and a few elders came after hearing the news.
At this moment, everyone in the hall looked at Wu Mao.
"Patriarch, we believe you, we didn't ask in front of the clansmen, and now, we have to give an explanation." The Great Elder said slowly.
"The Great Elder is in a hurry." Wu Mao's gaze swept over everyone: "Presumably, all the elders are also full of doubts in their hearts, and they want to know the truth in a hurry. ”
"Then I'll cut it short."
"I, I received news from the top of the sect that Wu Yuan is not an ordinary specially recruited disciple." Wu Mao said: "You all know that ordinary specially recruited disciples will eventually become second-rate masters. ”
A group of elders couldn't help but nod.
The specially recruited disciples are all extraordinary, and the Hengyun Sect has as little as one or two, and as many as four or five every year, which is very rare.
But want to be a first-class master? No less difficult!
Like the entire Namco County, over the past few decades, there have been dozens of specially recruited disciples.
And there are only dozens of first-class masters that have emerged in Namco County in the past few decades.
Could it be that all first-class masters are specially recruited disciples?
Unrealistic!
In fact, based on the statistical probability of Hengyun Sect, less than one-fifth of the specially recruited disciples eventually became first-class masters.
Within the Hengyun Sect, the vast majority of the first-class masters were born from a large number of high-level martial arts academy disciples and Yunwu Hall disciples.
Of course, in terms of probability alone, the probability of a strong person who recruits a disciple is amazing enough!
As long as you don't decadent and don't die halfway, you can at least become second-rate.
It must be known that even if it is the Yunwu Palace, those who can eventually become first-class masters only account for one-tenth of all disciples.
"And according to the high-level of the sect, Wu Yuan has great hopes of becoming a top master." Wu Mao said solemnly: "Even, there is a glimmer of hope to become a Grandmaster of the Earth List. ”
Shocked.
Grandmaster of the Earth Ranking? The elders of the Wu clan couldn't believe it, such a peerless powerhouse was too far away for them, almost mythical.
The grandmaster can open a sect and establish a sect, and he can list the territory and seal the territory.
This is no lie.
Like Yuanhu Villa, it was created by the grandmaster of the land list 'Old Man Yuanhu', and it has occupied a mansion for decades and has a great reputation.
Even the top players? It's terrifying enough, one person can defeat thousands of ordinary sergeants, and it is almost impossible for ordinary armies to trap them.
As strong as the Hengyun Sect, the perennial stationed in Namco Mansion is also a top master.
"Patriarch, I thought you were saying polite words." The Great Elder couldn't help but say, "Who is that high-ranking person?" Is this news reliable? ”
"Naturally reliable!"
"This is a sect secret." Wu Mao swept coldly: "Remember, don't leak my words today, once you are tracked down by the Supervision Palace, you should know the guilt." ”
"Understood."
"It won't be leaked." Several elders in the hall said one after another, and they finally understood why the patriarch did not explain publicly.
Temple of Overseer? No one wants to see anyone from the Overseer's Temple.
"Patriarch, having said that, is your promise too much?" An old man in purple couldn't help but say, "Sect branch Yizhi, what a big deal, didn't the patriarch think of discussing it with us?" ”
"yes!"
"It's just a gift of silver, but how can you let the master sect come out?" The other elders couldn't help but nod, which was what worried them the most.
The Grand Elder sat on one side, not saying a word.
"Stupid!" A trace of disappointment flashed in Wu Mao's eyes: "Can't you see it?" Wu Yuan came today for the purpose of falling out with the main sect. ”
Many of the elders were stunned when they heard this.
"Sect branch change?"
Wu Mao shook his head and sighed: "A 'main sect' name that is difficult to call a big clan in Nanmeng, you regard it as a treasure, but Wu Yuan only regards it as a burden. ”
"I checked Wu Yuan's file overnight."
"He is not a person who does not know the etiquette, and judging from his past deeds, he is extremely important to the family, why is he like this in the main sect? It's just done on purpose! Wu Mao said: "If we miss Wu Yuan, my Nanmeng Wu clan will lose the opportunity to truly rise." ”
"It's just the name of a master sect."
"If Wu Yuan becomes a top master in the future, if he wants to win it, can we still keep it? If he doesn't become a top master, he can't take it if he wants to. Wu Mao said softly.
Many elders couldn't help but ponder.
"What Wu Yuan wants, we have to give."
"What he doesn't want, we also have to give, not only to give, but also to take the initiative to give." Wu Mao said slowly: "The purpose is very simple, that is, to tie him to my Wu clan's chariot, so that he can't get rid of him even if he wants to." ”
There was silence in the hall.
"As for your worries about leaving the city, the Wu clan will swallow the big with a small one?"
"It's stupid!"
"Once Wu Yuan takes power in a high position in the sect, if the Wu clan wants to expand, it will inevitably move, and the first choice is Nanmeng City." Wu Mao said: "How many clansmen are there in the Wu clan who are out of the city?" How many people are in my lord's clan? ”
"Wu Yuan wants to use people in the future, and it is impossible to only use people from the Wu clan who have left the city."
"After two or three generations, will they still be able to separate each other?"
"One stroke, you can't write two Wus, I said it to Wu Yuan, and I also said it to you." Wu Mao said softly.
"But right now, ......" There are still elders who are a little hesitant.
"Right now, we are still the main sect, no matter how fast Wu Yuan's cultivation is, it will be a matter of one or two decades before he becomes a top master." Wu Mao shook his head and said, "Besides, the branch of the Hao clan is far stronger than the so-called 'main sect' of the small clan. ”
There was silence, and there was no opposition.
"Great Elder." Wu Mao's gaze fell on the Great Elder.
"Patriarch, what you said is reasonable, we are short-sighted, everything will be done according to what you say, I only have one proposal." The Great Elder said slowly.
Suggest? Wu Mao frowned slightly.
"Wu Yuan's silver taels will be given every year, and another 10,000 taels will be added!" The Great Elder said, "Twenty thousand taels, some are less." ”
"Good!" Wu Mao's brows furrowed.
……
At dusk, Nammonmuin Temple, Radiance Garden.
In the courtyard to which Wu Yuan belongs.
"Another 10,000 taels of silver tickets? And every year after that? Wu Yuan was stunned and looked at the stack of silver tickets handed over by Gu Ji.
The previous two thousand taels of gold tickets had surprised him.
Although the main sect of the Wu clan is much stronger than the Wu clan in the city, there are more people in the clan, the stalls are larger, and there will only be more places to use silver.
30,000 taels of silver a year? Not a lot!
"This Wu Mao patriarch is unknown, and it seems that he has unified the opinions within the clan." Gu Ji said: "There are some means, which are more courageous, and when you rise, I am afraid that they will get ten times and a hundred times the benefits." ”
"Then let them wait for now." Wu Yuan shook his head and said. "Uncle Ji, I'll go upstairs to practice first."
Gu Ji nodded.
At this point, he admired Wu Yuan very much, no matter when, no matter how much the outside world touted, if he had a little free time, Wu Yuan would cultivate alone.
In terms of the degree of hard work, Gu Ji is ashamed of himself.
Time passes.
The night is getting deeper.
Gu Ji has been staying on the first floor, seemingly resting with his eyes closed, but in fact, he has been vigilant in all directions to prevent assassination by masters.
As a personal guard, even in the martial arts academy, he did not relax in the slightest.
But Gu Ji didn't notice that a phantom fell silently from the side of the pavilion.
It disappeared into the darkness.
……
Namco City, with no curfew, is a large city with a population of one million, and it is also lively at night, with a big man walking on the bustling middle street.
"Assassins?"
"Reaching the 'Realm Control' level is the best assassin." The big man grinned, and his gaze fell on the majestic nine-story building in the distance: "Star Tower." ”
"Prefecture-level Star Tower, hopefully, don't let me down."
