Chapter Forty-Eight: A Dispute Arises over the Position of the Alliance Leader

After Wu Hou left Mu Haisen's residence that day, Duanmu Shenjiu did not leave with him, but stayed and stayed at Mu Haisen's house for a few days.

At first, Mu Haisen was also curious why this Duanmu Shenjiu wanted to stay here for a few days, but he was hospitable and didn't ask much. Besides, I have also seen Duanmu Shenjiu make a move, and I know that this is a ruthless person, and it would be a good thing if I had the opportunity to ask for advice.

For several days, Duanmu Shen lived in Mu Haisen's house at night, and went to the store with him to see the store during the day, and occasionally accompanied Mu Haisen to go out to work, helping Mu Haisen get a hammer, hand a wrench, and help down the ladder. In her spare time, she also played with Mu Haisen's daughter for a while, the little girl had a good nature, and after a few days, she became familiar with Duanmu Shenjiu.

The weather was bad today, it was gloomy and it looked like it was about to rain. Mu Haisen, who was sitting in the store, was lazily leaning back on a chair watching TV, while Duanmu Shenjiu was playing with his daughter at the door.

Mu Haisen, who was lazily leaning on the chair, was concentrating on watching TV when two men walked in the store, wearing suits and sunglasses.

As soon as one of the men entered the door, he shouted, "Boss." ”

Mu Haisen hurriedly sat down and said with a smile: "Here, if you need anything, you can tell me." ”

The man looked at the shelves, and talked to Mu Haisen without words. Another man, taking advantage of this vacancy, looked left and right in the room, and finally looked at the door, Duanmu Shenjiu, who was playing with the little girl.

After thinking about it for a while, he walked to his companion who was talking to Mu Haisen, pulled his sleeve, and gestured to the two people at the door.

Then the two of them left, saying nothing. This made Mu Haisen a little inexplicable, and scolded: "Don't buy anything, what are you talking nonsense to me here, it's really!"

After leaving, the two of them, after turning the corner, hid in the corner and peeked at Duanmu Shenjiu.

"It should be this person, good-looking, with long hair. ”

"Well, it's him. ”

The phone rang, and the man who was talking behind him took out his phone and picked it up.

"How are you doing over there?" he asked.

A voice came from there, "Found it, it's in his house." ”

The person who answered the phone had a cold look in his eyes, and then said, "Don't act rashly, go back and report to the boss." ”

"Well, I know, I'll go back. ”

After hanging up the phone, the two of them also left, where they came from and where they went back.

Now the days are getting shorter and the nights are longer, and the temperature difference between day and night is getting bigger. Although it was still very hot during the day, by the middle of the afternoon, the temperature slowly dropped.

Together with Shi Youen and Mingxin, Gu Jiajie, who went to the old alliance leader's house, walked on the road after the old alliance leader was buried, and felt a little cold, so he took back his coat from Ajie and put it on. On the road, there were 100 people, all of whom saw off the old alliance leader. According to custom, on the night after the burial, the proprietor had to entertain the guests at home, so these people had to return to the old leader's house and have a running water feast there.

The old alliance leader's home is in Yuhang, which is not a wealthy mansion, and it is just an ordinary family. If it weren't for the old alliance leader who founded the Martial Arts Alliance living here, no one would have seen that this ordinary courtyard would be far away from so many people in the rivers and lakes on this day.

Throughout the day, Gu Jiajie, who has always paid attention to everyone, has not found anyone with bad intentions. Perhaps, those who have ideas in their hearts don't want to come out to do things before the old alliance leader enters the ground, Gu Jiajie always felt that today would not be peaceful, so he thought about it in his heart.

Gu Jiajie, who frowned and bowed his head and was silent, was touched on the arm, he looked at the person and asked, "Daoist Shi, what's wrong?"

took his arm against Gu Jiajie's Shi Youen, and whispered: "Yuding's people are also here today." ”

"Who?" Gu Jiajie was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked: "The old alliance leader and Yu Ding have always been at odds, and the martial arts alliance was founded to balance Yu Ding, today the old alliance leader is buried, how can Yu Ding come?"

Shi Youen worried: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm here to fish in troubled waters." Look at the two people over there, the one headed by Jiang Lei. ”

Gu Jiajie followed the direction pointed by Shi Youen and saw two people, a middle-aged man, followed by a man.

"This Jiang Lei, I'm afraid I'm here to see the joke, right? The immortal death of the old alliance leader is a happy event for Yu Ding. ”

Shi Youen nodded and said, "If it's just a joke, then forget it, but if someone provokes a dispute over the new alliance leader during the dinner later, I'm worried that Jiang Lei will make some small moves after he knows that the people of the Martial Arts Alliance are not aligned." ”

"It stands to reason that the matter of setting up a new alliance leader should be chosen on a good day, and everyone will vote. Gu Jiajie sighed.

"It's too late. Shi Youen said with a smile, "Today we have to finalize who is the new leader of the alliance, otherwise the dragons will have no leader, and within a day, there will be chaos." ”

Gu Jiajie sighed, noncommittal.

When I returned to the courtyard, as soon as I entered the door, I saw dozens of tables of eight immortals placed in the courtyard, and the tables were already full of dishes, just waiting for the guests to come back and take their seats.

In the greeting of the old alliance leader's family, everyone sat down one after another and began the feast. If you don't have anything to do in your heart, you can eat with peace of mind and naturally, and if you have something in your heart, you can look around, look at this, look at that.

As Gu Jiajie guessed, in the middle of the meal, someone stood up and spoke with the strength of wine.

A man who looked older than Gu Jiajie slowly got up, and said loudly among the guests in the courtyard: "Friends present, I have something to say, I know that it is appropriate to speak today, but if this matter is uncertain, the future is worrying." ”

People who have been thinking about it in their hearts laughed when they heard this, but there were still some people who were displeased, because Bi Yuanting, who claimed to be Bi someone, had always been a supporter of Gu Jiajie. Now that Bi Yuanting has stood up and proposed this stubble, there is no doubt that he must want to push Gu Jiazhu to come and sit as the new leader of the alliance.

This is not a smooth thing for the remaining forces who want to compete for the position of alliance leader, and someone in the crowd immediately took over and said: "Boss Bi, in your opinion, who should be the leader of this alliance?"

Bi Yuanting looked at the side where the voice came, and glared: "Naturally, he is the personal disciple of the old alliance leader, Gu Jiajie, who has excellent martial arts and virtue, and Boss Gu." ”

"Hey, joke. Someone on the other side accosted, "Although Gu Jiajie is one of the eight masters, he has been immersed in business for many years, and if he can not mix in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, he will not be involved, although he also has a lot of popularity, but he is not the best candidate." ”

Bi Yuanting, a small sect in Lingnan, heard this, and his face became displeased. Lingnan scholar sword, the legend of Shaogui is fine, and the sect where Bi Yuanting is located, in addition to him, there are only a dozen people. There are very few people here from generation to generation, but they are expensive. But the small number of people represents the lack of power, coupled with the changes of the times, Bi Yuanting has no industry, so everyone in the door has a little hard life, and can only reclaim wasteland in the mountains to grow some crops and raise some cattle and sheep to maintain their lives.

The arrogance of those who practice martial arts makes them reluctant to join the society to work for others, but fortunately, Gu Jiajie is meticulous and has been helping Bi Yuanting and everyone in the Lingnan faction for many years. Therefore, Bi Yuanting has always been a supporter and follower of Gu Jiajie.

Since the power is insufficient, it is normal for Bi Yuanting's proposal to be refuted. But this was also within Bi Yuanting's expectations, he glanced at Gu Jiajie and saw that he shook his head slightly towards himself, and Bi Yuanting also shook his head slightly.

Then he looked at the man who had just spoken and asked, "Who is the best person for you?"

The man held the wine glass, stood up, and said loudly: "Although I, Wang Ping, have no sect and are a scattered person, I have been silently concerned about the affairs of the rivers and lakes for many years, and after the old alliance leader fell ill a few years ago, I went to find someone. It's a little funny, but I think everyone should have heard that the old alliance leader had a senior disciple before accepting Gu Jiajie as an apprentice. ”

Everyone knows about this, and everyone present knows that the old alliance leader had a child who was brought up from childhood before accepting Gu Jiajie as an apprentice. The old league leader has no children under his knees, and after adopting the child, outsiders say that he is an apprentice, but in fact he is similar to his own son, but later I don't know why, the child left the old league leader. Later, after the old alliance leader met Gu Jiajie, he moved the idea of accepting apprentices again. However, he only mentioned to Gu Jiajie that he had raised a child before, but he did not say that this child was his apprentice.

Smart and clever like Gu Jiajie, he can naturally understand the meaning of his master's words. The old alliance leader didn't treat that person as an apprentice, but treated that person as his own child.

Bi Yuanting asked again, "Wang Ping, what do you want to say? Have you found this person?"

Wang Ping grinned and said, "That's nature. ”

Among the people present, they began to whisper, and everyone was also reminiscing about today, but it seemed that at the end of the day, they did not see anyone like the owner present, and the relevant people who presided over the funeral of the old alliance leader were all servants who had followed the old alliance master for many years, and some subordinates sent by Gu Jiajie who were specially responsible for funeral matters.

Wang Ping continued: "I know, Huashan faction, Xiaodaohui, Dingyangshan, Jinzhaoting, Yuchun'an, and Fuhai Gang. As well as the Sang Group, the Liu Group, the Shennong Branch, and the Armor Breaking Gate, all want to be the leader of the alliance, but I think that the mantle of the old alliance leader naturally has to be taken over by the heirs of the old alliance leader, because only the heirs of the old alliance leader can inherit the legacy of the old alliance leader. ”

The people who were said by Wang Ping were silent, and no one said anything to refute them. As he said, the various sect forces named by him all have the idea of being the leader of this alliance in their hearts. When the old alliance leader was alive, he knew that the sects in the alliance seemed to be single-minded, but in fact they were two-minded.

Bi Yuanting said with a smile: "The heir of the old alliance leader is naturally Gu Jiajie. ”

Wang Ping shook his head after hearing this, and said, "No, no, no, it should be Boss Gu's senior brother, the one who was brought up by the old alliance leader." ”

Bi Yuanting asked again: "Where is he?"

Wang Ping nodded, "It's on the spot." ”

"Who is it?"

Wang Ping looked around and shouted, "Where are you sitting, show up!"

The crowd looked around to find this man. At this time, a small voice came from the crowd, "Here it is." ”

A man slowly stood up as he spoke.

Shi Youen, who was sitting next to Gu Jiajie, was taken aback when he saw it, and said in disbelief: "How can it be him, this is impossible!"

Gu Jiajie also looked at this person and whispered: "Jiang Lei of Yuding, will he be the adopted son of the old alliance leader?"

Yes, the man who stood up was Jiang Lei, and Wei Chengfeng was still sitting on his side.

Wang Ping saw Jiang Lei and said with a smile: "Everyone, this is the child raised by the old alliance master, and he is also Gu Jiajie's senior brother, Jiang Lei, Jiang Tianshou!"

Someone in the crowd immediately scolded: "Bullshit! Jiang Lei is Yuding's lackey, who is guarding the door, who let him in!"

Bi Yuanting looked at Wang Ping coldly, and said coldly: "Wang Ping, Wang Ping, I really didn't expect it, when will I catch up with Yuding?"

Wang Ping looked at Bi Yuanting, who had a cold attitude, and was not afraid at all, and replied: "Those who know the times are Junjie." ”

"Phew!" A martial artist sitting next to Wang Ping spat on the ground, and immediately got up and left his seat, and several people at the same table also left their seats, distancing themselves from Wang Ping.

The old man who was over half a hundred years old in the Little Knife Club was relatively stable, and asked, "How can you prove that he is the adopted son of the old alliance leader?"

Dingyang Mountain, Jinzhao Pavilion, Yuchun Nunnery and other sects have spoken.

"You say he's him?"

"I said that I am the adopted son of the old alliance leader, do you believe it?"

"Wang Ping, Wang Ping, can't you see Yu Ding's wolf ambition? Or have you already joined Yu Ding?"

"Let him be the leader of the alliance, play by himself!"

Everyone is opposed, and no one is waiting to see Jiang Lei. But Jiang Lei listened to so many words and was not moved at all, and Wei Chengfeng also sat there calmly.
