When the family is big, anything bullshit can happen.

Zhou Yang had never imagined that the Zhou family monks would be an exception.

This time Zhou Tongming's matter, he was also a little surprised and annoyed at first hearing, but after coming back to his senses and thinking about it carefully, he had a new understanding.

This matter is not new, and it is inevitable for every big family to have a certain level of population.

What's more, there is no saying in this world that the same surname is not allowed to intermarry, and it is common for those secular mortals of the Zhou family to intermarry with each other, and even the concubines of many monks of the Zhou family are mostly ordinary women of the Zhou family who have the blood of the Zhou family.

Therefore, in terms of customs, the matter of intermarriage between monks of the same race and surname is not unacceptable in this world, and even exists widely.

Zhou Guangxiang, the current patriarch of the Zhou family, has his own parents, who are of the same race and surname, and it stands to reason that he should not be opposed in this regard.

But now he is clearly opposing the union of Zhou Tongming and Zhou Guangyin.

Zhou Yang analyzed what he just said, and soon found that what he opposed was not the marriage of the same race and surname, but the matter of "aunt and nephew falling in love".

Zhou Guangyin is Zhou Tongming's aunt in terms of generation, although she is actually only one year older than Zhou Tongming.

And in a family like the Zhou family, which pays attention to the order of the elders and the young, and advocates respect for the inferior, this kind of disorderly division of generations is undoubtedly a taboo.

If Zhou Guangyin and Zhou Tongming are allowed to combine, will the children they give birth to in the future be counted as the "Tong" generation or the "Fu" generation?

Will they continue to be called aunts and nephews, or will they be called husband and wife, and what should the rest of the people call them?

Knowing this, it is not difficult to understand why Zhou Guangxiang and others should resolutely oppose the combination of Zhou Guangyin and Zhou Tongming.

But to make it clear, Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Tongming, who was already covered with blood on the ground, but knew in his heart that if he insisted on Zhou Guangxiang's verdict, this junior, who was deeply involved in the love between men and women, was very likely to turn against the family, and even make the two elope away from home.

How powerful is such a thing as love, Zhou Yang knows better than anyone in the Zhou family, and the information he understands and comes into contact with is far from being comparable to the monks of the Zhou family who have been trapped in the family all their lives.

And this thing can never be stopped, as long as there are men and women in this world, this thing will never disappear, it can never be stifled.

So Zhou Yang actually has a headache about how to deal with this matter.

Of course, he can make a special case for Zhou Tongming and Zhou Guangyin, with his prestige in the Zhou family, I believe that no one dares to accuse him of anything for this.

But if this exception is made, what should he do if someone comes to him for the same thing in the future?

Moreover, he also has to consider the opinions of Zhou Guangxiang and others, these people are all managers he elected, and if he directly denies the practices of these people, it will be a major blow to the prestige of these people.

After thinking about it like this, Zhou Yang's eyes flashed and he made a decision.

I saw that with a wave of his hand, he struck out a soft mana to knock Zhou Tongming unconscious, and then looked at the law enforcement elder Zhou Guangkun and asked, "Is there a lot of this in the clan?"

Hearing Zhou Yang's question, Zhou Guangkun hurriedly replied: "It has appeared a few times before, but after our advice and the revision of isolation measures, those clansmen have calmed down and figured it out, and they no longer entangled with each other. ”

After speaking, he paused, then looked at Zhou Yang with a sincere face and said: "Elder Taishang, please forgive the juniors for being blunt, with your identity, there is no need to pay attention to such a trivial matter, don't look at the two of them are now dead and alive in love, and they want to live and die, but as long as they can't see each other for five or ten years, when that impulse dissipates, they will naturally break their minds and accept the reality." ”

When Zhou Yang heard this, he first nodded, then shook his head and said, "Your method may be good, the passage of time can dilute a lot of things, but if they still haven't forgotten each other after five or ten years, what are you going to do?

"This ......" Zhou Guangkun's face was stunned, and he looked at Zhou Yang with his lips pursed, unable to answer.

"What you mean, I understand that this kind of chaotic and humane thing really can't be allowed to develop normally. ”

"But I don't want any children of the Zhou family to have a grudge against the family because of this kind of thing, so as to do things that are detrimental to the interests of the family. ”

"I have an idea here, you all listen to it, if you think it's acceptable, let's do it in the future, if you still think it's not good, let's discuss it again!"

Zhou Yang looked at the elders who were all focused on him, as well as the Zhou family members in the hall, and said his thoughts in a deep voice.

"My idea is very simple, let the array mage arrange a special phantom array, and then let Zhou Tongming and Zhou Guangyin enter the formation to be tested, if the two of them face all kinds of difficulties in the phantom array, and can still not forget to stick to each other to the end, then those of us who are elders, of course, there is no need to do evil things like beating mandarin ducks. ”

"But if the two of them can't hold on to the final test in the phantom array, it proves that the love between the two of them is not as strong as they imagined, and if they are not willing to end this relationship at that time, it will not be too late for us elders to beat the mandarin ducks!"

After Zhou Yang finished speaking, his eyes swept over everyone in the hall, and he waved his big hand and said, "Now you can show your attitude." ”

"The junior agrees with Elder Taishang's proposal, but at the same time, the junior also has a small suggestion, that is, if the two of them really pass the test, one of them must change their name, automatically give up their status as a family monk, and work for the family as a relative!"

Zhou Guangxiang, as the patriarch, was the first to express his support for Zhou Yang's proposal and made concessions after Zhou Yang made a decision.

However, although he made concessions, he also told his bottom line.

When Zhou Yang heard his suggestion, he groaned slightly, then nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Everything is subject to the orders of the Supreme Elder. ”

The juniors seconded. ”

......

The highest-ranking Taishang Elder and the Patriarch of the clan had reached an agreement, and it was difficult for anyone from the other Zhou family to dare to disagree.

What's more, they are all of the same race, and in the matter of Zhou Tongming and Zhou Guangyin, no one is really willing to make enemies with the two for a lifetime.

After reaching an agreement in this way, Zhou Tongming, who was soon unconscious, was healed of his injuries and reawakened.

After he woke up and heard Zhou Yang's decision, he was immediately excited to ignore the wound on his forehead that had just healed, and quickly knelt on the ground again and again kowtowed to thank Zhou Yang: "Elder Xie Taishang is complete, Elder Xie Taishang is complete......

And with Zhou Tongming's example in front, some members of the Zhou family stood up and told Zhou Yang about the injustice they encountered in the clan, and wanted to ask Zhou Yang to make decisions for himself.

However, after listening to Zhou Yang one by one, he found that most of the so-called injustices encountered by these people were not really treated unfairly, but that they were subjectively dissatisfied with the handling practices of the family deacons and patriarchs, and they wanted to follow suit after seeing Zhou Tongming successfully overthrow the patriarch and law enforcement elders.

For these clansmen with crooked intentions, after Zhou Yang found out the truth, he naturally reprimanded and reprimanded mercilessly, and made a punishment of three years for each of them.

However, for some clansmen who did suffer from unfair treatment, he did not choose to shield those family managers, and directly punished those managers who made wrong disposals on the spot, or were dismissed or demoted.

After such an impartial handling and rectification, Zhou Yang's prestige in the hearts of those clansmen once again rose to a new level.

After the news of this meeting spread, those new-generation Zhou family members and those relatives who were not familiar with him also had a lot of identification with him, the Supreme Elder.

This is the same as Shengdou Xiaomin always looking forward to having the Qingtian Lord preside over justice for himself, when there is really this kind of Qingtian Lord, the Xiaomin will soon worship him as an immortal god and worship him.

"Alright, now that your requests have been processed, it's up to me to announce something. ”

In the council hall, after Zhou Yang disposed of the requests of all the clansmen present, he suddenly stood up, looked at the many clansmen in the hall, and said some things that he had been ready to say a long time ago.

"There are three things I want to say, one is that the conditions for the family to produce their own Tsukidan have been fully met, and every twenty years in the future, the family will refine one or two furnaces of Tsukidan, so I am ready to start a [Seed Plan] within the family. ”

"The intention of the [Seed Plan] is to support those Zhou family members who are expected to build a foundation, and those who want to sign up for the [Seed Plan] must have one of the following conditions. ”

"The first is a person with outstanding talent in the four aspects of refining weapons, alchemy, talisman making, and arranging arrays; the second is a clansman with super combat talent and perseverance; and the third is a person with quick thinking and outstanding wisdom. ”

"As long as the clansmen who meet the above conditions and pass the family assessment and are successfully selected for the [Seed Plan], they can exchange the Zhuji Dan from the family at half price for their own foundation building, and the number of times is not limited!"

"As for the second thing I want to say, the family will build a new ninth hall, called the War Hall, specializing in fighting the law and fighting, as long as it does not encounter particularly important things in the future, the family will only send War Hall monks to participate in external battles, and all the monks who are selected for the War Hall will receive a full set of standard equipment given by the family for free, and practice special secret techniques for free!"

"Finally, the third thing I want to say is to fully open up the family's guest recruitment system, and recruit special talents who are beneficial to the development of the family from the whole cultivation immortal realm, and for those who are excellent, they can even help them build a foundation after being tested!"
