Chapter XXXIII: A Gift to the General
As the Chinese New Year's Eve approached, more than a dozen servants came and went, busily cleaning the courtyards of Chaoyang Ju and replacing new window paper and lanterns.
Yue Buqun watched all this quietly, recalling the hard work of himself and others in the past six months, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, it was really not easy to make Huashan full and busy again!
"Master!" Feng Buping took a red sticker and went straight to Yue Buqun, "This is the list of Tongguan bonuses and New Year's gifts sent by General Gao, and the head has to see it personally!"
"Hmm!" Yue Buqun took it with both hands and looked at it casually, "Senior Brother Lao Feng is running around!"
remembered that when he first met General Gao three months ago, his "cold style", Yue Buqun secretly laughed in his heart, and the two could be said to be ignorant. That time I went to Tongguan to visit him, not surprisingly by his subordinates of those "masters" embarrassed, but unfortunately this general Gao Shibo although the political means are not bad, but he is bent on yearning for the fresh excitement of the rivers and lakes, but he is a layman who does not know much about goods, the so-called masters, most of them are just some gangsters and liars, after being sent away by themselves, the habit of squirming, I have to worship the Huashan faction to learn superior martial arts, and I also recognized that I want to worship the predecessors of Huashan as teachers.
In desperation, Yue Buqun painted a portrait of Feng Qingyang according to his memory, bluntly saying that Feng Qingyang is the world's top master, with extraordinary martial arts, and everyone in the rivers and lakes knows it. Since then, the two have called each other brothers, and the rest of the mundane matters have been solved casually.
After roughly estimating the total financial value on the list, Yue Buqun was secretly satisfied with Gao Shibo's sincerity, these silver coins were not only enough for Huashan's expenses for a year, but also used to buy a lot of Lingxiu children as preparatory disciple training, and suddenly thought of something in his heart,
"Senior Brother Feng, are you satisfied with that New Year's gift?"
Feng Buping thought of that thing, and couldn't help but blush, "He's very satisfied, but..."
Thinking of the half of the "Joy Zen Method" that he asked Feng Buping to give to Gao Shibo, Yue Buqun could naturally imagine Gao Shibo's obscene expression when he saw the exercises.
"Haha..." Yue Buqun shook his head lightly and handed back the list in his hand, "Anyway, he is not a real Huashan disciple, and he himself has taken a bunch of concubines, and that half of the Double Rest Exercise can just satisfy his curiosity about internal strength, and it will not damage their own vitality!"
"What the boss said is..." Feng Buping was still quite embarrassed, after all, he unconsciously gave someone a book of room techniques, looking at Gao Shibo's ambiguous eyes at that time, Feng Buping felt embarrassed and ruined.
"Has the expansion of the nursing home in Huayin County been completed? Have those children's new clothes for the New Year been prepared?" Yue Buqun was embarrassed to see that Feng Buping was the operation in the room, so he took the initiative to change the topic.
"It was completely completed a few days ago, and Brother Wu sent another batch of children, and now there are nearly three hundred children in total!" Once he talked about business, Feng Buping immediately forgot the embarrassment just now, and had some potential as a workaholic, and at this time a trace of worry flashed on his face, "It's just that most of these children have mediocre qualifications, I'm afraid they are not good disciples!"
"It's okay, the so-called natural talent I must be useful!" Yue Buqun disagreed, "First find some masters to enlighten these children, and when we accept disciples in the future, pick out those who have a little martial arts qualification and then teach martial arts, and the rest can also be sent to my Huashan's industrial shops as apprentices, and re-cultivate as the peripheral forces of my Huashan!"
Feng Buping pondered for a moment, and then hesitated, "Then is this number too much?" Among these children, only 12 out of 10 have a slightly better martial arts experience, and there are too many left..."
"No, no, no," Yue Buqun shook his head lightly, his face serious, "As long as you have a little qualification, you can barely practice martial arts, you can pick out and teach martial arts! Among these children, at least more than half of them can be picked out to practice martial arts!"
"This..." Feng Bu's tone changed, and he was quite puzzled, "But it is basically impossible to become a master with poor qualifications, and there are too many true disciples, I'm afraid that my Huashan Superior Xuangong will also be leaked..."
"No, no!" Yue Buqun denied it again, and he didn't hide it, and told his plan in full, "In the future, Huashan will be changed to a sect to recruit disciples in a unified manner, including a few of us, we are not allowed to recruit disciples privately, and the disciples recruited will all be given the same foundation building exercises when they get started, and they will all be taught and recommended by the Elders of the Transmission of Gong, and the Elders of Law Enforcement will monitor the progress of the disciples' martial arts, and depending on their performance, they will slowly eliminate impatience and rashness, leisure and hard work, and For those with bad conduct, the remaining after the selection will be promoted to the entry registered disciples, and they will be awarded less than half of the inner Outside the superior exercises, after three or five years of martial arts, those who have good martial arts and morality can be the disciples of the true transmission of the house, and can be awarded the complete Huashan superior exercises, and the remaining introductory registered disciples can be cultivated with those quick success methods collected by me in Huashan in previous years, and several outstanding disciples who have entered the room are named the titles of the disciples of the lineage, and they are evaluated every three years, according to the comprehensive selection of martial arts and reputation and morality, the fittest can be preserved, and the disciples can be used as candidates for the elders of Huashan. Even, when the contemporary head intends to take the initiative to abdicate, all the disciples above the entry level in Huashan elect the successor of the head of the sect from among the descendants by voting, and the top three descendants with the most votes are respectively the successors of the head, the power transmission, and the law enforcement elders, and the rest of the descendants who have more votes can also be used as the deacons and elders of Huashan general. ”
"This..." Even with Feng Buping's calmness, he was dumbfounded, although Feng Buping also understood that Yue Buqun was just a brief introduction, and the specific process had to be discussed carefully, Feng Buping was still shocked by this unique inheritance method, "Then I won't have a mantle disciple in the future, and there is no difference between Qi Sect and Sword Sect?"
"Hehe!" Yue Buqun picked a leaf casually, rubbed it gently, and his tone was heavy and inexplicable, "Martial arts are high, and you can naturally compete for the three big positions of the head, the master, and the law enforcer, so the disciples of Huashan are all the mantle disciples of these three, if the martial arts are not good, why bother to accept the mantle disciples, are you trying to mislead people's children?"
"This is also..." Feng Buping's color changed uncertainly, his expression was solemn, obviously realizing that this system was fundamentally different from Huashan's past inheritance methods, "Under the survival of the fittest, the winner is more able to adapt to the dangers of the rivers and lakes, and can carry forward Huashan better! The battle of ideas and intentions of the Sword Sect, in this kind of fierce competition, I am afraid that no one will be so idle and bored to pay attention, after all, no matter how good the theory is, it can't compare to the existing facts, and the competition for more than ten or twenty years in a row is enough for everyone to find a martial arts theory that suits them!"
"Yes!" Yue Buqun naturally understood the core of this system, "It is for the disciples to take the initiative to think about the various theories of the martial arts they have learned in the competition, think about their own advantages, and find their own path, instead of passively accepting the theories instilled by the elders who do not know the advantages and disadvantages of right and wrong." In this way, individuals are all verifying their own paths, people are changing, and the road is also changing, not only the Qi Sect and the Sword Sect, but thousands of sects, naturally there will be no more Qi and Sword disputes. ”
"However, this is a complete overthrow of the door rules, and the consequences are not that they are not aware of the advantages and disadvantages of this system, nor are they obsessed with the door rules, but they cannot predict the chain reaction caused by the implementation of this system on the rivers and lakes.
As if he understood Feng Buping's worries, Yue Buqun didn't smile, "Haha, Senior Brother Feng forgot, it's not yet the time for us to really recruit disciples, and when we achieve first-class masters, Megatron Jianghu, if we do this again, no one can interfere!"
"Hehe," Feng Buping then smiled bitterly, "I almost forgot this, it's unfounded! It's just that the head of the sect just said that there is something wrong with letting those beginner disciples practice the quick-form martial arts hidden in my Huashan, although those martial arts entered the realm quite quickly at the beginning, most of them have limited achievements, and there are still a lot of troubles..."
"There's no way to do it," Yue Buqun nodded in agreement, but his face was a little helpless, "It's the trend of the times!" Over the past few decades, my Wuyue Sword Sect and the Demon Sect have fought many times, and every time they win or lose, even if the Demon Sect is chaotic for a while, it will quickly recover its vitality, but it will become more and more vigorous, but my Wuyue Sword Sect will take a long time to recover every time, and if we are not careful, its power will decline, this situation has happened repeatedly, so we have to be vigilant!"
After repeated analysis, I found that the reason why the Demon Sect recovered quickly was because they had enough people in the lower classes, and once the middle and upper levels suffered losses, they could quickly produce new middle and upper levels from the struggle between the lower levels, and even the ambitious new sect leaders could be produced from the struggle of the middle and upper levels!
The most terrifying thing is that this advantage of rapid recovery will only become more and more obvious as the struggle continues! We have to admit that this is the best way for big gangs and big forces to develop! Therefore, I will have to take this road in the future, and I will have to train more beginner disciples at the lower levels, just in case!
As for the quick martial arts, we should pick those quick success methods that have little trouble, or those that are not obvious in the future, so that the beginner disciples can have some self-preservation power as soon as possible! Moreover, in the future, when our martial arts are high, we can also jointly deduce some better methods for quick success!"
"Alas, in this way, it can only be like this!" Although Feng Buping was a little worried about teaching his disciples the method of quick success, he was not a pedantic person, and after a little contemplation, he sighed and agreed.
The two of them were thoughtful for a while, and stood silently.
"Qiya, hurry up!"
"This shovel is so heavy! I can't hold it..."
"Oh, it's useless, I'll help you..."
Yingying Yanyan's pleasant voice came, which made the two of them who were contemplative suddenly wake up, Yue Buqun looked at the three sisters of the Zhou family, who were going to build a snowman, the fifth girl, the sixth girl, and the seventh girl, thirteen or fourteen years old was the age of playfulness, and couldn't help but smile.
At this time, the three sisters also saw Yue Buqun and Feng Buping here, and couldn't help laughing, as if they had seen a good student with a strict teacher, and they didn't dare to be as wanton as they were just now, which made Yue Buqun quite depressed.
I'm not a big bad wolf!
Yue Buqun couldn't help but smile, "Go play, be careful of the snow slippery and falling!"
"Let's go, let's go..."
"Let's go!"
With a thin muttering sound, the third girl, you pushed me and ran away.
"Huh?" Yue Buqun suddenly saw a familiar shadow beside the mountain wall where the girl came from, and couldn't help but shout, "Senior Brother Cheng!"
"Haha..." Cheng Buxian turned around and walked out of the mountain wall, and spoke, "Senior Brother in charge, Senior Brother Feng!"
Seeing that Cheng Buxian still had one end of a wooden shovel exposed behind him, Yue Buqun couldn't help laughing, he still wanted to play in the snow with the little girl when he was so old?
"Senior Brother Cheng, you came just in time, the ancestral hall of the ancestor has not been cleaned for a long time, we will all go to worship the ancestors in a few days, you go and clean the ancestral hall now!"
Cheng Bu was as sad as mourning, the wooden shovel in his hand couldn't help but fall to the ground, and his eyes looked at Feng Buping pitifully, as if he wanted him to help intercede, and he didn't want Feng Buping's eyes to stare at him.
"Don't you hear? Why don't you go quickly, you won't have lunch until you clean it!"
"Let's go..." Cheng picked up the wooden shovel without worrying, put it on his shoulder, and swayed towards the ancestral hall.
