Chapter 17 explains it

In the past few days, on Mount Tai in Zhongzhou, there is an endless stream of people coming and going, and the disciples in the sect have also put down the practice matters in their hands, many people side by side, walking quickly to and from each hall, during which acquaintances have never said much, and their expressions are serious, but they are stepping up preparations for the apprenticeship ceremony after January.

In the tall hall of the main peak of Mount Tai, the sect master Yin Lingzi is sitting on the main seat, and Yun Qi is standing hand in hand, not knowing what to report.

His Royal Highness sat in the hall and talked to each other, from the left hand side is the master of the self-cultivation hall Yuan Que, this person has a simple face, not many words but is kind to everyone, and looks quite honest.

Sitting next to it is the master of the heart cultivation hall Miyue, but it is the only female dependent in the hall, with a cold face, no joy and no worries, even if it is facing the head of the house, there is no change of color, although Miyue is the same age as the hall master, but it looks like it is only two decades old, worthy of being the master of the world's heart cultivation, and the maintenance is excellent.

The big man next to her looked at her and smirked again and again, Miyue saw this, and there was a reproachful look in his eyes, and the big man scratched his head when he saw it, and smiled awkwardly. It turns out that the two halls of self-cultivation and self-cultivation are in the same vein, and complement each other, and Yuan Que has already married Miyue, and it is also a good story on Mount Tai.

The person side by side with Yuan Que Miyue has blazing eyes and thick eyebrows, it is Ye Chengqian, the master of the Sword Hall, this person is the master of the knife in the world, he has been accompanied by the knife since he was a child, and he has been immersed so far, and the realm of knife art is probably only comparable to the Biyue scimitar of the head of the Divine Sword Sect. has a cold face, and every word and deed is like a blade.

Similarly, there are three chairs on the right hand side, close to the main seat is the deacon hall master Gen Yu, this hall is responsible for the affairs of the sect, the criminal precepts, so the disciples in the sect mention Gen Yu is also very afraid, side by side with it is the outer hall master, Yan Ce, this person lupine scarf, dressed very differently from the others, is bowing his head to taste tea, from time to time looking up at the head of the main seat, the hidden sect is responsible for managing the family worship in various parts of Zhongzhou, dealing with mundane trivial matters, not in the sect all year round, at this time also because of this apprenticeship ceremony back to the mountain.

The last chair was empty, and every time everyone's eyes swept by, it showed a faint look of regret, and immediately returned to normal.

There are a total of seven halls in the hidden sect, namely, two halls inside and outside, two halls of self-cultivation and self-cultivation, two halls of swords, plus one hall of deacons, but there are only five hall masters in the hall, not a vacant sword hall master, and one is the master of the inner hall, but it is the master of the inner hall of the past dynasties, but the inner hall is not to think about the outer hall, preside over the affairs of the sect, but to major in the hidden sect of the inner strength of the heart method "Hidden Soul Jue", so it is called the inner hall.

In addition to the short-lived sword hall back then, it was stronger than the inner hall for a while, and it has always been the most outstanding strength of the inner hall, so the hidden sect has also become famous all over the world.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, it was the person who was seated and said, "It has been more than ten years since our senior brothers gathered together like this, and today I am very happy to be able to gather here because of the grand event of my Yin Sect. ”

"Hmph, what are you talking about, I'm very pleased, if it weren't for your assertion to drive away Senior Brother Gu, the seat of the Sword Hall would be empty now. But it was Daotang Ye Chengqian who spoke, although he was facing the master of a sect, his tone was not polite at all. Yin Lingzi was also slightly angry when he heard it at this time, but his face did not change, and he still looked at him with a smile.

"Senior Brother Ye, what kind of system is it to talk to the senior brother in charge in such a tone, besides, you were also present that day, and you also saw with your own eyes that it was Senior Brother Gu who left voluntarily, and the senior brother in charge tried to keep him in vain, more than ten years have passed at this time, why are you still so mindful?"

"Don't think I don't know, you, you, you, if it weren't for the three of you who charged Senior Brother Zangfeng with the crime of bullying the teacher and destroying the ancestors, how could the senior brother leave in a bad mood. As he spoke, he stood up, and pointed at Gen Yu, Yan Ce, and Yin Lingzi, scolding and accusing without the slightest concealment.

"Senior Brother Ye, you are indeed the wrong senior brother in charge of this matter, my Hidden Sect Sword Hall generation hall master sternly warned, not to cultivate that sword technique, first there was a previous generation of hall masters secretly practicing sword skills, going mad, and dying, and then Senior Brother Gu also practiced that sword move, it is already a violation of the door rules, if the head of the sect is partial, it is unfair, how to be the master of a sect. But Mitsuki, who had never spoken, spoke.

"And you husband and wife, when the senior brother left, there was no message at all, but I forgot the kindness of the senior brother on weekdays, and what is wrong with the senior brother's cultivation of sword skills, we and other people who practice martial arts, they are going against the sky, and the way is sinister, if they are afraid and cowering, what is the difference between them and the ants and mayflies. The person who used the knife was already indomitable, opening and closing widely, and Ye Chengqian's words unconsciously carried a little bit of true qi, and the sound was like thunder, echoing in the main hall, deafening.

"Senior Brother Gu's kindness, Yuan Mou should be unforgettable, if he wants Yuan Que's life, he will also give it, but at that time, my husband and wife had already persuaded Senior Brother Gu, but he had already made up his mind, and we had no choice, if Senior Brother Ye wanted to blame, then blame me Yuan Que alone, Senior Sister Miyue and the senior brothers were not at fault. Yuan Que's tone was firm, his words were sincere, and he was a good man, if he said this, Cheng Qian's face softened slightly, and he continued.

"Senior Brother Gu's matter should be as you said that he left voluntarily, so how should the matter of Senior Brother Yin and Senior Sister Lan be explained?" Everyone in the hall was shocked, but Yin Lingzi, who had been watching, spoke at this time.

"Enough. Today I invite everyone to come to discuss the matter of my Hidden Sect Apprenticeship Ceremony, but the junior brother does not forgive, and the words are bitter and hard to force each other, and ask about the things of the year, I admit that the matter of Gu Zangfeng is indeed inappropriate, but it is also a helpless move, and now you even have to mention that kind of evil criminals, but there is still me in the eyes, but there are still the ancestors of my Yin Sect, or like that evil disciple, I still have to betray the sect and apostasy like that evil man, so that the world will laugh at my hidden sect. ”

Although the voice is not loud, there is no doubt about it, the righteousness is awe-inspiring, the power of the head is undoubtedly revealed, and the master of the Sword Hall does not know how to open his mouth to refute, he is anxious and angry in his heart, and he said, "Okay, good, good, it seems that now the Hidden Sect is indeed your own sect." With that, he turned and departed.

At this time, Gen Yu opened his mouth and shouted, "Senior Brother Ye, Senior Brother Ye......" But the man didn't look back and left the main hall.

After Ye Chengqian left, there was silence in the hall for a while, but it was Miyue who spoke, "Senior Brother in charge, don't be angry, it's just that Senior Brother Ye and Senior Brother Gu have always been good friends, and it's hard to let go of this matter. ”

"What the senior sister said is very true, and the senior brother also knows in his heart where to blame him. Putting aside these tedious past events, I invite you to come today to talk about the apprenticeship ceremony. Yun Qi, in the recent process, let's talk about you first. Although he said this, his face was cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Yun Qi said without humility or arrogance, "Yes, Master, since the preparation of the ceremony seven days ago, more than 700 guest rooms have been cleaned, and we are clearing the mountains and roads, and 132 disciples have been selected from the halls, and we have gone to various places to post notices, and sent invitations to the world's large and small sects and famous families. As he spoke, he stepped forward and handed the hall masters a delicately bound book.

After flipping through the tea time, Yan Ce, the master of the outer hall, said, "Senior nephew Yun Qi really does everything in detail, no wonder the senior brother in charge of the family praises you a lot, I will teach you to do it, we can rest assured." Everyone present also cast approving glances at Yun Qi, and even the hidden spirit son who usually does not wave the ancient well also had a smug look on his face at this time.

Yun Qi's face was slightly red, and he said, "Uncle Yan is falsely praised, at this time, it is just a matter of disciples, so I should do my best, so as not to delay the major event of my Hidden Sect accepting disciples." As he spoke, he looked at the main hall and asked, "Master, I wonder if this year's new disciples will still set up three checkpoints as in previous years?"

"This year's recruitment of disciples must be strict, open the stone forest in the back mountain, the stick array, and add these two passes, otherwise the new disciples will inevitably have mediocre qualifications as in previous years, and it will be difficult to become a big tool. Yin Lingzi said calmly.

These words fell in Yun Qi's ears and he was quite frightened, the stone forest in the back mountain, the test of the stick array is very difficult, and now the old disciples on the mountain are afraid that some people will not be able to break through, it seems that this time the master is determined to rectify the hidden sect, thinking so in his heart, and said, "The disciple knows, so let's do it." Then he turned and withdrew from the temple.

After Yun Qi left, Yin Lingzi said, "There is actually one more thing to ask everyone to come today. As he spoke, he looked at the empty seats, "It's about the Sword Hall." ”

The deacon hall master and the outer hall master seemed to have expected it, and they didn't look much surprised, but when Yuan Que Miyue and his wife heard this, they looked at each other, and their eyes could not hide their excitement and joy.

Since Gu Zangfeng left Mount Tai, the position of the master of the Sword Hall has been vacant so far, and the Sword Hall is also sparsely populated, and I am afraid that it will exist in name only in the long run, and the previous recruitment of new disciples is not willing to join, and the head of the sect has not talked about it, and now that he says this, I am afraid that he is going to restart the Sword Hall.

"As you might expect, the recruitment of disciples this time is so strict, I plan to merge most of the disciples into the Sword Hall to carry on the last wish of the master. Yin Lingzi glanced at everyone, and then said, "I don't know what the junior brothers and sisters think?"

"Senior brother has the heart to restore the Sword Hall, we will definitely assist and support it wholeheartedly. But everyone said in unison.

"Since there is no objection, then it is so, and now that is the end of today's discussion, you can also go back and prepare for the acceptance of disciples. After saying that, he gave an eviction order.

Hearing this, the hall masters also said goodbye, got up and left the Hidden Spirit Hall.

Gen Yu got up, bowed to the hall, and said, "Senior Brother has this determination to live up to my Yin Sect ancestor, so it seems that he is much better than Senior Brother Gu." After saying this, he laughed and left the temple.

He was the only one left in the Hidden Spirit Temple, and he muttered in a low voice, "What about beating him." There was a long silence.

At this time, Mount Tai is full of lights, a festive image.

And in the Sword Hall of the Hanging Cliff Peak, it was quiet and silent, only rows and rows of spiritual positions silently looking at the scenery up and down Mount Tai.

yes, it's been a long time since it's been this lively.
