Chapter 122: Hidden Behind the Scenes
Zhen Xiaomei thought to herself, she really just wanted to get a sum of money and kidnap a group of people at the beginning, how did it develop to this point?
Not only Zhen Xiaomei was stunned, but Yun Zhao, who heard Xiao Yi working so hard to promote Juxian Pavilion, was actually very confused.
He was still guarding against Xiao Yi before, but now Yun Zhao couldn't help but suspect that the other party was a fool.
"You wait, wait." The two looked at Xiao Yi stupidly for a while, and then Zhen Xiaomei remembered to interrupt Xiao Yi's enthusiastic sales pitch first.
She said, "How did you come up with the idea of giving me Juxian Pavilion?" If I'm not mistaken, you should have built the Juxian Pavilion, right? Did you develop it in order to give it away? ”
Xiao Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, "I didn't want to do this from the beginning, I can't help it." ”
"Me and the three hall masters under me, we have no other talents except for martial arts, and we are not the material to take care of things. We are also very aware of our shortcomings, so we let our brothers take care of it for so many years. ”
"Those who were chosen by us were the same people who originally founded the Juxian Pavilion with us. We trusted them so much, but in the end, everyone betrayed their relatives. ”
"The good brothers who used to fight side by side and share life and death are now mostly unrecognizable because of power and money, in my heart"
Xiao Yi took a deep breath and suppressed the sourness and pain in his heart, "As for why you." The first is that you have appeared at the right time, and the second is that my intuition tells me that you can be trusted and entrusted with important tasks. ”
Zhen Xiaomei: To put it bluntly, is his sixth sense at work?
If it weren't for Xiao Yat when she asked to talk to them, she would have wittily and quietly opened the lie detector software, and she would have wanted to complain that the other party had lied and wouldn't have been more satisfied.
A sentence of "intuition" wants them to believe him, hum, who is he treating as a stupid white sweet?
Although Zhen Xiaomei was seventy percent sure that Xiao Yi was not fooling her, but really wanted to hand over Juxian Pavilion to her, Zhen Xiaomei still sternly refused.
It's not that she doesn't want Juxian Pavilion, the big gold bricks that fell from the sky are pushed out, she just doesn't want to stand in front of the stage.
She said to Xiao Yi: "Juxian Pavilion was founded by you, it is your hard work, and it is also a glimmer of hope and shelter for the scattered warriors in the world. ”
Not all the scattered warriors came to Hezhou and joined the Juxian Pavilion, and a large number of them were actually living with their relatives and friends in other states and counties.
Of course, their lives are also unsatisfactory, and they are usually suppressed and excluded by the local sects or families, but as long as Juxian Pavilion stands there for a day, these scattered warriors still have a glimmer of hope and a way out.
They will have hope, and those sects or families will have scruples and dare not go too far with them.
Such a place, rather than a series of turmoil in Hezhou and even Kyushu caused by herself, Zhen Xiaomei actually hopes that it can stand here in its true form.
Of course, this was just the reason she gave Xiao Yi for refusal, and there was another reason she didn't say, that is, she didn't want to expose the Endless Sea forces led by herself and Yun Zhao to the public eye right now, so that other large and small forces in Kyushu would be jealous of her.
Rather than fighting to the death with other forces in Kyushu and fighting for the only remaining piece of land in this world, Zhen Xiaomei wants to rush inward step by step.
She wants to make all the vast land occupied by the Erosion Worm her own, and wants the world to become more pleasing and powerful day by day under her unremitting efforts.
She believes that as long as she stays good enough and develops the places within the Endless Sea well, she can be as bloodless as possible in the future, so that everyone in Kyushu can live according to the rules she has set.
Zhen Xiaomei was ambitious, but she didn't want this ambition to be revealed too early, so she not only refused Xiao Yi to give Juxian Pavilion to her, but also enthusiastically said that she could help Xiao Yi straighten out the affairs of Juxian Pavilion and even Hezhou.
Yat was incredulous. He never dreamed that his Juxian Pavilion, where his decades of hard work were, would not be able to be given away for nothing!
He was shocked, and after the shock, he was moved. He felt that his intuition was as accurate as ever, and he saw how high-minded and upright the future pavilion master of Juxian Pavilion he had taken a fancy to!
Xiao Yi was both relieved and moved, and he immediately said that since Zhen Xiaomei was unwilling to take over his position as the pavilion master, then he would take Juxian Pavilion to join Zhen Xiaomei directly!
Zhen Xiaomei was stuffed by Xiao Yi again, "But there is a fate, go to the soup and go to the fire, and I will not give up."
Zhen is not high-spirited, nor is she upright, Xiaomei is very satisfied with Xiao Yi's way, and she no longer organizes homeless people and orphans to leave with her.
"Pavilion Master Xiao, please give me a copy of the account books and personnel list of Juxian Pavilion first, I want to know how many people, how much property and food I can use."
As soon as Xiao Yi heard this, he immediately personally took people back to Juxian Pavilion to move the account book and disciple roster.
It is worth mentioning that he didn't move the old account books of Juxian Pavilion before, because those account books were all used by the previous deputy hall masters and big and small stewards to fool him and his three hall masters, and they had no reference value.
What he brought to Zhen Xiaomei was an account book that recorded the property they recovered.
As for the list of disciples, since many of the people on it had already been killed by Xiao Yi and the others, Xiao Yi could only have people re-select and copy a new book according to the actual situation.
After all that, he took his things to the inn where Zhen Xiaomei and Yun Zhao had settled before.
The innkeeper was a low-level martial artist, and when he saw that the actual controller of their Hezhou suddenly walked into their inn with more than a dozen people with a not very good face, the innkeeper was so frightened that he almost knelt down directly for Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi was quick to lift the innkeeper with soft legs and feet to the chair nearby, "Which room does Miss Zhen live in?" ”
The innkeeper trembled his lips and couldn't speak, and in the end, Zhen Xiaomei heard the movement herself, opened the door and called Xiao Yi over.
When Xiao Yi saw her, he immediately beckoned the Juxian Pavilion disciples he brought to go upstairs together, and while walking, he also complained to Zhen Xiaomei, "I just said let you go directly to Juxian Pavilion, you don't listen." ”
Zhen Xiaomei smiled, "We can't just leave those homeless people and orphans behind, right?" ”
Xiao Yi thought about it, he sighed, and resigned himself to taking his subordinates to Zhen Xiaomei's room.
