Lan Qi retorted at this time: "You are not right, although there will be no more killing in a unified whole, then internal contradictions will arise, brothers are at odds with each other, and friends turn against each other are not uncommon in the rivers and lakes." The master once said that stability and progress require competition, and if a whole is too long, then it will rot like a pool of stagnant water. ”

Murong Zheng laughed at this time, and he said, "Your master is just a fool's opinion, or the main reason why they are unwilling to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance is for their own selfish interests, or they don't want to be subservient. ”

"One of the things they did right, it was to balance the disputes between the various forces, but that meant that the rivers and lakes were always in charge of their old sects. Qiqi, you can seriously think about it, the big and small things in the rivers and lakes, Tianji, Wudang, Shaolin, which major things they have not interfered in? What martial arts elders? They are the rulers of martial arts! The leader of the martial arts alliance is nominally the biggest person, but in fact it is just an ornament. ”

"The previous martial arts alliance leader was like this, the martial arts alliance leader should be the emperor of the martial arts in my impression, but in fact it is just an ornament, an ornament that depends on the faces of the five major sects in everything, and a tool for them to make profits. Tianyu Gongzi was like this back then, he received the financial and material support of the five major sects, so he achieved today's Tianying Society. ”

Lan Qi asked, "How do you know these things?"

Murong Zheng didn't shy away from Lan Qi, he could not trust anyone, but he could trust her.

Murong Zheng took out a bookcase from his bookshelf.

He held the bookcase to the table, and he opened it, revealing a book inside, and then a pile of papers underneath.

Lan Qi took one look at it and said, "What are these things?"

Murong Zheng said: "This is obtained from Tianyu Gongzi's Xizi Villa, this is the account book and bills that Tianying will enshrine to the five major sects every year. ”

Lan Qi picked up the things and looked at them. That's right, these are indeed bills, and they are not copies, but originals, probably because they have been put for a long time, and there is a faint musty smell on them.

And this is the bill is stamped with the seals of the five major schools. The seal of each sect is unique, and no one can fake it.

Lan Qi also found the Tianji Gate in this pile of bills, which was indeed the golden seal of Tianlin Hall, and there was also the autograph of Ling Xiaozi, the elder of Tianlin Hall.

Lan Qi is a disciple of the head of the hall, although the Xuanwu Hall is in charge of foreign affairs, but the Foreign Affairs Hall also needs the allocation of Tianlin Hall, she still knows this seal seal, and she is very particular about stamping it, one is the strength of the seal, as well as the position, and the seal itself is very particular.

On one side, someone faked according to the seal.

Tianlin Hall's Jinlin seal collapsed a gap, so the seal on it was also missing a corner, and Ling Xiaozi's habit of stamping was heavy at the top and light at the bottom, and she covered it diagonally.

In this way, the cinnabar imprint on the upper half is extremely obvious, and the lower half is a little light.

Not to mention the notes, Ling Xiaozi will not write his own road number when he signs, but directly write his real name, Meng Qingxiao. And this green character, Ling Xiaozi is used to writing it in official script, and she will write it in regular script for Meng characters and Xiao characters.

This unique habit is something that only she can use.

Murong Zheng continued: "Qiqi, you have also been deceived by those sanctimonious people, the main reason why they want to bring me down is that the power of my Heavenly Dao Alliance is expanding day by day, and it is enough to threaten the dominance of the five major sects. Many people have done it before, but in the end they have rejected it as a threat to the rivers and lakes, and now they probably have included me in this category. ”

Lan Qi took a few steps back and said: "No, you are not right, the master said that only by balancing the major forces can the rivers and lakes be stable, and the responsibility of the five major sects is to maintain such a balance, if there is a force that is too inflated, then it will break the balance, cause disputes in the rivers and lakes, and even oppose the imperial court, the master said that more than 20 years ago, the rivers and lakes also formed an alliance with the imperial court, and that time the rivers and lakes and the imperial court were both defeated, dozens of top predecessors died, and the imperial court was also injured. ”

"My two masters were both witnesses of that incident, and they didn't want that to happen again, so they wanted to stop you. The lust for power blinds people's eyes, and the lust for power is not satisfied. They don't want you to go from being young and handsome to being an evil sect, that's why ......."

At this time, Murong Zheng took out another box, which still contained ledgers and bills. And most of that are receipts.

Of course, it is still the five major schools.

Murong Zheng sat on the chair, and then said sarcastically: "My existence is just shaking their status and destroying their interests, Qiqi, you should know that the head disciple of Tianji Sect, Tianji Sect has no other source of livelihood except for the sale of drugs such as purple green jade hibiscus." ”

Lan Qi did not deny that Murong Zheng was right, the main source of income for the Tianji Sect was to maintain the operation of the sect by selling the sect's secret elixir, purple green jade hibiscus, and other pills.

It is not easy to operate such a huge sect, there are more than 3,000 disciples at the four levels of the inner gate, the outer door, the entry room, and the true transmission, and the Tianji Gate is different from other sects, the Tianji Gate is hierarchical, such as the disciples' clothing, including ornaments. For example, Lou Yun's red and white, Lan Qi's blue and white.

Although the clothes of the disciples of Tianjimen are not the best, but they are not bad, these three thousand disciples will receive a new set of clothes every season, and the cost of making these more than three thousand sets of new clothes is an immeasurable number, and if you count other daily expenses such as food, not to mention that each elder, the disciples who are in charge of teaching, and the disciples of the inner and outer sects who are responsible for internal affairs, external affairs, and other miscellaneous things, all have a monthly income.

And Tianjimen does not need to charge tuition fees like Emei, as long as you become a disciple of Tianji through the sword test conference, then all your food and lodging are covered by Tianjimen.

Including your bedding, it is all silver from the heavenly machine.

What's more, the disciple's room is not enough to be built, or the house is broken and needs to be repaired, all of which need to be supported by silver.

Lan Qi is not from Tianlin Hall, and she doesn't know where the specific source of wealth from Tianji Gate comes from. But now she knew one thing, that is, just selling those drugs was not enough to maintain the daily expenses of Tianjimen.

Moreover, Tianjimen often saves lives and helps the wounded, and for those who really need those medicines, they not only make small profits, but even give them generously.
