Chapter 524: The Crowd Dominates
To put it bluntly, Bai Shiduo is just a wall-riding faction who looks at the wind and rudder. At the beginning, the former head Zhu Qianmu was surrounded by enemies, Yu Jingfeng went to the southwest to resist the army of Yefan State, the Bai family did not follow with all his strength, and did not desperately save the head of the family, and only before the dust settled, did he rush to the front line to support, which shows that he has a different idea in his heart. Chu Yiming said eloquently, "Now, the sect is divided into two factions, Yu Jingfeng and the head Zhu Zhenluo each have supporters, although he seems to be on Yu Jingfeng's side, but in fact he is still a two-faced. ”
"Isn't there still an auxiliary head Mu Yangqing here?" Jiang Feng remembered that this pseudo-heaven-level monk who was known as "Uncle Qing" in the Li Sect Sect, and his reputation was even faintly above Yu Jingfeng, who was known as "Uncle Feng".
After the head Zhu Zhenluo got married, he resigned most of his positions, leaving only a name, and Uncle Qing usually did not form friends, except for continuing to support the head of the family in major affairs, he was unwilling to participate in this power struggle. ”
"In other words, Bai Shiduo's thoughts are not necessarily Yu Jingfeng's will?"
"Possibly, but I can't say for sure. Speaking of which, because our Chu family has been managing the spiritual land, there are not many people who hold important positions in the major cities in the territory, so we can only stand firmly on the side of the head, therefore, there is no way to speculate about Bai Shiduo's true thoughts, but from the perspective of the severity of the matter, it should still be Yu Jingfeng's meaning, otherwise, with Bai Shiduo's cultivation and status in the sect, he should not have the qualifications to know these secrets. The reason why I remind you is that whether it is Bai Shiduo or Yu Jingfeng, they do not necessarily represent the will of the Li Sect, and this point is very important to the Qianshan Sect adjacent to the Li Sect. ”
"I see. ”
Now that the Assayama Sect has increased its strength compared to before, and because of its rank in the Jincheng League, it is bound to have been included in the sight of the Lizong, and the original contempt will inevitably change after the Jincheng League's victory over the Tianyin Temple.
For Li Zong, Jiang Feng has no idea, the strength of the other party is there, therefore, getting married is still the first choice at the moment, and it is also an inevitable choice, but between these two forces, how to choose still needs to be carefully weighed.
From the past, Yu Xiaoman and Yu Xiaozheng of the Yu family also have some old friendships with themselves, but Chu Yiming's reminder is nothing more than a warning to himself that Bai Shiduo is unreliable, and with the increase in the time that the head Zhu Zhenluo is in charge of the Li Sect, whether it will have a greater conflict with Yu Jingfeng is also a question, and it is not easy to say whether this internal conflict will affect the relationship between the Li Sect and the Qianshan Sect.
Although there is the Jincheng Alliance as the backing, it is still the Asayama Sect that faces the Lizong, not to mention the war, if the Lizong cuts off all the eastward trade routes, then ...... Jiang Feng didn't dare to think deeply, fortunately, this matter has not happened for the time being, but it is enough to attract attention, if there is a chance, he should find a way to meet the new head Zhu Zhenluo, unlike the heaven-level monk Zhu Qianmu back then, who is also a prefecture-level, when he wants to come to meet, the pressure should not be great.
"Apart from the Chu family, who else is on the side of the head?"
"The Xiao family. ”
I seem to have missed something, I could have been left and right, the corners of Jiang Feng's mouth twitched, fortunately, if there is a conflict, the status of the Chu family should also be able to help make peace from it, thinking of this, I went to most of the worries in my heart, and asked about Zhong Shan's previous collection of the old department of Lelinmen.
Speaking of this, Chu Yiming was in a good mood, Zhong Shan's trip gathered five Xuan-level monks, as well as more than 200 people from his relatives, including fifteen spiritual-level monks, these people were already on errands under Chu Yiming, and some of the monks had joined the Li Sect, so that they could get two salaries at the same time, and then improve their situation. Because of this, Chu Yiming's status in the Chu family has risen, and the Chu family has benefited a lot.
"In the long run, there is only one concern. For Jiang Feng, Chu Yiming didn't have any idea of concealment, "I originally relied on the children of the Zhao family of my mother's family, but now I have added the Zhong family, although it is a little balanced, but after all, it is all external forces, and the Chu family is still withered." ”
"Worried about taking the lead?"
"It's okay for a short time, but if the problem drags on for a long time, there may be this problem. Chu Yiming said, "Now that the head of my family and I are at the prefecture level, we may still be able to hold on, if Chu Anlan's old thing happens one day, then I am afraid everything will go back to the past." ”
"Isn't it reliable to rely on in-laws to win over?"
"I can't marry Wen Yin, right?" Chu Yiming smiled, "What about Si Guanghao, who is on an errand in your Shallow Mountain Sect?" Speaking of which, there are not many female cultivators in the Chu family, and ordinary marriages may not be taken seriously. Speaking of this, Chu Yiming sighed slightly, "The only hope now is that Chu Yilin can reach the high level of the prefecture level as soon as possible, so that those affiliated families will still be loyal and waiting for dispatch, just a few years later, if there is a leader in the new generation of the Chu family, everything will be safe." ”
"How is your brother's temperament?"
"Loyal, but not wise. ”
"You find a secluded place for him, and I will help him awaken. ”
"That's very good. Chu Yiming's eyes lit up, "I forgot that you have this weird ability." Although it is not useful in the short term, the news is enough to be encouraging. Just, how do you explain it?"
"You said that you found the elixir from the old immortal of the hundred medicines, and I helped match it, and many people know that you and I are good friends, and it is not a big problem. The Hundred Medicine Old Immortal is now hiding and cultivating in retreat, and he will not appear in the short term. ”
"The name of the Hundred Medicine Old Immortal should be enough to win trust, and I will send someone to prepare it immediately. ”
"With the people of the Zhao family. ”
"Don't worry, you won't get in trouble. Chu Yiming pondered for a moment, as if he had a plan in his heart, and then his face was worried again, "You are going to the Whale Sea Islands, it is still not appropriate to only have a means to save your life, if you can have a suitable killing weapon, it is best to raise one or two." ”
"Circling between a group of pseudo-heavens and primordial infants, I'm afraid that the ordinary magic weapon will not be able to catch it. ”
"No, you misunderstood, the killing weapon is not to kill the other party, or to protect yourself. If you expose it, let others think that you are very tricky, and it is not something that can be solved in a short time, they may give up, after all, they are here to seek that kind of heavenly way, and dealing with you is just a hand-holding, dispensable. ”
"You wait for me in the mansion, I'll go find Shangguan Bashuang, he may have some stock that can be borrowed. ”
"Will he let go?"
"Rest assured. Chu Yiming patted his slightly bulging belly, "Xiuqi has not unloaded the goods there, he will not not borrow it, and I also shared with him the results of the previous investigation on smuggling and trafficking, and now, in the same boat, we still need to work together to ensure safety." On the other hand, one thing must be told to you, six more shipments have recently been delivered to Hokuriku, the scale is far beyond the previous scale, and it may be sold soon, think about it, what does this mean?"
"It shows that they are short of money. ”
"Yes. You're right, when will you be short of money?"
"Prepare for war, or a big war is coming. Without thinking about it, Jiang Feng came to a conclusion.
"Originally, I didn't care, after all, I don't need to do it, and there are spirit stones to take, so why think so much? But listening to what you said today, this will probably be the same thing, so when you cross the sea this time, you must bet all your wealth to ensure a safe return. ”
Reasonable......
Seeing Chu Yiming leave the house, Jiang Feng thought for a moment, but his mood became more and more uneasy, Chu Yiming was right, such a big battle really needs to be paid enough attention. Thinking of this, he also left the Chu Mansion and went straight to the nearest Fu Gong shop.
............
Zhenwu City, the Xiao family ancestral hall with the smell of sandalwood.
Xiao Mingzhen is ranked among the children of the Xiao family, the position is not forward, she was suddenly called back to worship her ancestors the day before yesterday, originally, it is extremely difficult to apply for leave to leave the Longxiang Army, and it is extremely difficult to return to the clan to worship the ancestors, but the Xiao family still did it.
The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change.
Originally, she thought that the Long Xiang Army would change its old habits and eliminate the interference of the major families, resulting in mixed personnel, lax military discipline, and difficult to control the old troubles, but now it seems that this expectation may be disappointed, although everything has changed, but in addition to swearing to be loyal to the head and the sect, there is not much change, at least this change is gradually shrinking, maybe one day, back to the old appearance.
People are still those people, things are still those things, as He Fangxuan, who has been promoted to lieutenant of the squadron, said, radical change will only happen after the baptism of storms.
However, the familiar and unfamiliar ancestral hall in front of her immediately reminded her of another person, the person she had once held hands and visited here in the middle of the night, and she didn't know how this fearless negative person was doing, whether she remembered herself, or was surrounded by other beauties, indulging in joy. Thoughts fluttered, the figure in front of him moved again, and another family member entered the ancestral hall.
This year's worship seems to be a little grander than in previous years, she said in her heart, and besides, it is not the right day.
............
Jiang Feng didn't expect that he would meet Xiao Buyi of the Xiao family on the street, he originally planned to say hello and mix up, but the other party was so enthusiastic that he was a little flustered.
This is not Xiao Butiao's style.
It wasn't until he was pulled to the "Jixiangju" restaurant that Jiang Feng confirmed that Xiao Buti was indeed sincere, this luxurious private room occupied the best position in the restaurant, and there were twelve monks on the left and right, except for Ding Ruoqian, the city lord of Zhenwu City that he knew, although the others didn't know him, there were also two prefecture-level monks, and the rest were at least in the middle of the Xuan level, and there was even a human race Jindan.
What kind of battle is this?
And most importantly, the first seat is still empty.
In an instant, he was in a trance, inviting himself to a small gathering, and he would not make such a big show, this was in the Li Sect, not the Asa Mountain Sect, a feeling of dominating the guests arose, and he even wanted to retreat immediately, after all, compared to an inexplicable wine banquet, it was more important to hurry up and find some life-saving talismans.
"Today is a big day for me to never get tired of forming a brother of the opposite sex with the head of Jiang Fengjiang, and I ask you to be a witness. Xiao Buti invited Jiang Feng to the main seat, enthusiastically introduced Jiang Feng one by one, and then raised his wine glass and said today's theme.
"Cooperate, remember to cooperate!"
Jiang Feng remembered the words that Xiao Buti had repeatedly intimidated him, so he had no choice but to pick up the wine glass with a smile, put joy on his face, and touched the wine glass with everyone one by one, "Please take care of you in the future!"
Messy cups and plates.
Jiang Feng felt that he hadn't drunk much, but his hand that wanted to put aside the floating tea stalks in the cup was not so flexible, and the night pearls on the four walls shone brightly, cold and lonely, dispelling the hustle and bustle that still haunted his heart. This is a closed secret room, in the backyard of the "auspicious residence", although the privacy is not as good as the professional hall, but the quality of the water system sound insulation cover is also first-class.
"Let's talk about it!"
Jiang Feng quietly touched Gu Bao, and seemed to be very unhappy about doing such a trivial matter, and the Tower of Eternity immediately caused a turbid wave in the sea of knowledge, which made Jiang Feng's consciousness a little clearer, I have to say, the spirit wine of "Ji Xiangju" tasted good, if it wasn't for the inappropriate occasion, he even wanted to pack a copy for Yuan Regular, and he wanted to find spirit wine for him to stay in the shallow mountain sect for a long time, why not take materials nearby, and Xiao Bu was not tired of paying for it.
"I don't want to either, what's the benefit of forming a brother of the opposite sex with you, but whether you like it or not, it's already like this, don't think too much, it's obviously me who suffers, right?"
"It's your ancestor's order again?" Thinking back to the previous scene, the Xiao family's move seemed to be to make the whole city known and announce to everyone that their relationship with the Xiao family was extraordinary.
"I don't know, so I can't talk nonsense. ”
"Okay. Looking at Xiao Buti's stinky face that seemed to owe him a lot of spirit stones, it was obvious that he was also forced, and it might be difficult to get something out of his mouth, so Jiang Feng gave up his plan to ask, and then a figure appeared in front of him, "How is Xiao Mingzhen?"
"Today's ancestor worship, she came back yesterday. ”
"Can I see it?" The residual drunkenness surged, Jiang Feng only felt a little hot on his body, and the strange feelings were uncontrollable, as if there were white flowers swaying in front of his eyes, lingering.
"No, you can't. Xiao Buti glanced at Jiang Feng with an ugly face, "Remember, not in a short period of time." I'm here to remind you of this, too. ”
"Why?"
"You don't lack women, why do you ask so much?" Xiao Buyi's stinky temper came again, "That's it, remember, if someone asks about the relationship between you and me, remember not to say it wrong." ”
"Good. ”
"Gone. ”
Xiao Buti actually left like this, leaving Jiang Feng alone in the secret room, until the wine was completely gone, Jiang Feng didn't think clearly about the connection between the two things of banqueting himself and not being able to see Xiao Mingzhen, but fortunately, now that he has a special bond with the Xiao family, the problem of standing in line that he was worried about before has been invisibly solved.
Left and right, this is what Jiang Feng is looking forward to.
"Guest, please settle the account. Out of the secret room, he was about to go out of the front hall, but Jiang Feng was stopped.
Bah!
As for the brothers of the opposite sex, Jiang Feng didn't like it in his heart, so he had to take out the spirit stone. When he walked to the street, it was already completely dark, Jiang Feng did not hesitate anymore, and went straight to the nearest market, in addition to purchasing spirit runes, he had to first identify the three spirit runes that Bai Shiduo gave him with unclear names.
