Qin Jiang led a group of people and walked towards the mouth of Songxi.

The more you walk towards the mouth of Songxi, the more scarce people become.

When they came to Songxikou, all the guard disciples were sent away by Qinjiang, led a group of people into Songxikou, and closed the heavy stone gate.

"Disciple Qinjiang greets your uncles. ”

Qin Jiang knelt down and saluted respectfully to the people just now.

"Get up, Qinjiang. I didn't expect that after so many years, you would grow so big! When we first came down the mountain, you were only half the height of your senior brother! Now you are probably about the same as your senior brother, right?"

Qu Laojiu pulled Qinjiang up from the ground and happily asked about Qinjiang's current situation.

"Thank you, uncles, for your concern. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm really embarrassed, those disciples at the sect boundary monument are all newcomers. I don't know your uncles, I've caused trouble to my uncle, and I hope my uncle won't be surprised. ”

Qin Jiang first bowed his head and thanked him, and then excused the juniors and disciples at the door.

"Qinjiang, there's no need to take this matter to heart, and don't punish them then. A few of us brothers and sisters are away all the year round and rarely stay in the sect, and it is normal for them not to recognize us. Regardless of whether they are new or not, even among the disciples of the same class as us, there are not many who know us, so don't blame them. ”

Qu Laojiu didn't mind this matter.

"I see. ”

Qinjiang is clear.

"Where's your master?"

The purpose of Qu Laojiu's trip is to find Daoying Zhenren, and those who should have greeted him have also been greeted, so naturally it is time to get to the point.

"If Master is not in the study, it is in the gazebo in the backyard. ”

Qin Jiang naturally understood what Uncle Shi meant, so he explained the possible situations one by one.

"Qin Jiang remember, the disciples in the sect don't know us, so don't let them know us, if you don't know it, you won't know it. ”

Qu Laojiu deliberately told Qinjiang.

"Understood. ”

Qinjiang understands.

"It's good to understand. Okay, let's go rest! We're going to catch up with your master! After so many years, I'm afraid we won't be able to tell you what we've seen and heard down the mountain for a while. Remember, don't let the people below disturb us!"

Qu Laojiu once again deliberately admonished.

"Then since this is the case, Qinjiang will retire first. ”

Qin Jiang took a deep look and retreated.

Qu Laojiu's meaning is self-evident, can Qin Jiangyan not know?

After leaving the Qinjiang River at the mouth of Songxi, he immediately went to the wing room specially used to receive guests. He personally instructed his disciples to take care of it, and also notified the kitchen in advance to prepare food for these "distinguished guests".

After everything was taken care of and Qin Jiang carefully inspected, he was finally satisfied, so he went to the deacon hall to deal with the fight this morning.

The deacon hall, located in the southwest of the entire sect complex, is relatively remote, and it is a place to deal with various things in the sect.

The deacon hall is in the shape of a boxy "mouth" and is divided into four parts, namely the north wing, the south wing, the east wing, and the west wing. Each chamber has its own specific function. The north side is used to discuss the matters that should be decided after discussion in the sect, the south side is used to accumulate the official documents in the various sects, and the hub where the commissioner sends the official documents that have been approved to each place that should be sent to the place, the east side is the study room, and the west side is a tea room dedicated to taking a break.

The deacon's hall is elegantly furnished, with no special decorations, only bluestone slabs with a little dark light, ordinary wooden doors and windows, and simple wooden furniture.

The exception is the North Wing, although it is furnished in a similar way to the overall style of the Deacon Hall. However, the wood used is much better than in the rest of the deacon's hall.

In the north wing, in the deepest part of the room, there is a rare and exotic beast of Kunlun Mountain Chaoyang chair made of Huanghuali wood, and a strange pine table in the clouds of Huanghua Mountain that is also made of Huanghuali wood. Although this set of tables and chairs looks relatively ordinary, the wood used is extremely precious. Three steps away from the table, there is a silver-gray semi-transparent light gauze bamboo forest phantom curtain hanging from the beam, cleverly separating the convener of the meeting from the participants, so that they can speak freely and contribute to the development of the sect and its fame.

However, today, Qinjiang deliberately opened the curtain so that everyone could see himself behind the curtain.

Qin Jiang sat on the chair and calmly looked at the guard disciples kneeling below.

"Who's the first to do it?"

Qin Jiang's voice was calm, without half anger.

A deceptively simple question was thrown.

However, it was such a simple question, but it provoked the group of disciples who were kneeling on the ground, their bodies trembling with fear, and no one dared to talk.

At that time, when the disciples of the guards saw Qin Jiang treating the group of people they thought were picking quarrels and provoking troubles with a pleasant face, everyone knew that they had caused a catastrophe and that everyone was in danger.

Before he came to the deacon's hall, he quarreled in order to shirk his responsibility. When I got to the deacon's hall, I couldn't even say half a word.

The long silence always makes people feel irritated.

"Answer me. ”

In the quiet room, a slightly suppressed anger voice sounded.

Although the disciples were afraid of being punished, they were even more afraid of the majesty of Qinjiang, and finally someone spoke.

"Back... Return... Back to the words of the senior brother, it was our first move. ”

A disciple kneeling in front of him stammered.

"Make it clear. ”

How can people hear stammering words clearly?

"It's our hands that come first. ”

Disciple A explained the important situation.

"Why?"

Qinjiang wanted to know why.

"They deceive people too much, senior brother, you have to be the master for us!"

Disciple B felt that he was not wrong.

"Oh, what are you the masters?"

Qin Jiang was curious, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and the tail note of the upward pick also showed the doubts of the owner of the voice.

"When we don't let them in, they speak out against them. ”

Disciple B is still obsessed with the idea that all the faults are someone else's.

"For such a trivial matter, you can also do it?"

Qin Jiang felt even more surprised, could this be the temperament that should be after cultivating in the Immortal Mountain?

"This is also a trivial matter? They insulted the other brothers. ”

Disciple B felt that his senior brother had been subjected to unwarranted criticism, which was an extremely infuriating thing.

"We, the Jingting faction, walking the rivers and lakes, have always respected the creed of harmony since the beginning of our ancestors, and do not easily clash with other sects. As a result, we have very few enemies in the rivers and lakes. And it is precisely because of this that our Jingting faction can be ranked as one of the members of the Kunlun Alliance, which is all due to the wise leadership of the ancestor master. Ancestor Zeng Yun: If you want peace in the world, you must first value peace. This has also become our Jingting faction, which has been regarded as the criterion for life for generations, and the sect has taken this as its basic requirement. We practice, not only to practice, but also to cultivate the mind! Even if those guests may have inappropriate words, you can appease them first, and then come to me to solve them. Why are you so reckless? How do you let those guests think of our Jing Ting faction, and where do you put the face of the sect?"

Qin Jiang's tone gradually became heavier, fortunately, he was the uncle of the sect, and he would not worry about the disciples of the sect.

But what about the others?

This is a major matter related to the face of the sect, how can you allow you to ruin the reputation of your own sect? What's more, if you form a bond with other sects because of this, you will definitely have endless troubles in the future. At that time, how can the disciples of the sect have a peaceful day? they will be tired of dealing with all kinds of people in the rivers and lakes* who come to seek revenge. In this way, how can we meditate and cultivate, in order to reach the realm of no one, and become an immortal? I am afraid that this immortal mountain, which was originally Zhong Lingyuxiu, will also be stained with blood, defiling its supposed holiness.

"Senior brother, I didn't think about it that much at the time, we just wanted to let out a bad breath!"

Qin Jiang's words were reasonable, and Disciple B couldn't help but be a little speechless.

"You have been in the sect for seven or eight years, and you are an old man, how can you be so impulsive?"

Qin Jiang glanced at Disciple B, and there was a strong sense of contempt and dissatisfaction in his tone.

This kid, don't tell the truth yet!

"I... I..."

Disciple B is still obsessed and still covering up his mistakes.

"You probably want to play on the topic, right?"

Looking at the uncomfortable expression of Disciple B, Qin Jiang only felt that he had known that this was the case, so why bother in the first place!

"Senior Brother Mingjian!

Disciple B tried his best to shirk it, his eyes did not dare to look directly at Qinjiang, and his eyes were wandering. For fear of letting others know what he had done, but he had already exposed himself between the words.

"Hmph! There is no such thing? You often participate in gambling under the pretext of going down the mountain to do business. Last month, the owner of the gambling shop kicked you out because you didn't have the money to gamble. But the one who won all your money that time was a businessman, and you keep holding a grudge. This time, when I saw that these guests were dressed as businessmen, I deliberately picked quarrels and provoked trouble, and I still insisted that there was no such thing?"

Qin Jiang suppressed a faint anger and was not angry.

"Senior brother, how do you know?"

At this moment, Disciple B suddenly couldn't support his body, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, as if he had lost his strength.

"Is there anything in this world that I don't know?"

Qin Jiang picked up the porcelain cup on the table and glanced at Disciple B. The thumb and index finger gently pinch the lid, lift it up, the tip of the nose is close to smell, and suddenly feel fresh and elegant, and the green and clear tea soup is even more intoxicating.

In the porcelain cup, it is Qinjiang's favorite - empty after the rain.

"In this case, if you want to kill and scrape, listen to it. ”

Disciple B knew that he had been exposed, and there was no other way but to confess his sins.

"I'm not going to kill you. ”

Qin Jiang glanced at Disciple B and said very calmly.

However, in Qinjiang's heart, he did not appreciate this irresponsible behavior. Moreover, to kill such a person is really to dirty your own hands.

"Why?"

He has committed such a great sin, and he is not punished?! Could it be that this senior brother has a way to torture people in addition to death?

Disciple B couldn't help but speculate in his heart.

"Killing you can't save the face of the sect, what's the use of killing you?"

Qin Jiang didn't mind him asking this question, and threw out the words that he had prepared a long time ago.

"What do you want, brother?"

When Disciple B heard Qin Jiang's statement, he felt that since he didn't kill, it meant that he would never be able to escape other punishments. It's just a different way of punishment, and there is no essential difference.

"Well, let's go to the guest room and take care of those guests in the near future. ”

Qinjiang made his own conditions.

“... Yes, sir. ”

When Disciple B heard Qinjiang's conditions, he was secretly surprised. Since you can not be punished, it is not impossible to go there and do this drudgery. As long as you are still good, there will be a chance to gamble in the future! Stay in the green mountains, and you are not afraid of running out of firewood! In this case, hurry up and respond, what if Qinjiang changes his hexagram?
