Chapter 200: The Parting Feast
After hearing this, Zong Wei naturally nodded again and again, with a happy face: "I didn't expect your kid to train such a powerful team of people, as the head of the family, these people were personally selected by you, and naturally they were commanded by you!"
Zong Ying and Sun Qing also hurriedly said: "Congratulations to the head of the family, with them by the side of the head of the family, we can be relieved now." ”
Seeing this, the other people who came looked surprised, looked at the people behind Zong Zhuoyuan, and congratulated Zong Zhuoyuan insincerely.
At this time, Lin You spoke: "These people are quite complicated to train, and they are scattered, and their strength is greatly reduced, what the head of the family means is that these people are commanded by the head of the family, and others cannot be mobilized." ”
When Lin You said this, the twenty people behind Zong Zhuoyuan shouted in unison: "It was originally the head of the family who was born and died, and his liver and brain were smeared. ”
This sudden sound startled everyone.
Zong Wei laughed: "Looking at the posture, even if we want to mobilize, these boys won't listen to us!"
This matter is obvious, these people are a force that Zong Zhuoyuan has secretly trained, how can they let others get involved, so everyone is either sincere or helpless, and they all nodded.
At this time, Zong Zhuoyuan spoke: "You are here, I really don't want to go, the family affairs are busy, and it all depends on you, everyone is busy, don't worry about me!"
When everyone saw Zong Zhuoyuan say this, they dispersed one after another.
Zong Zhuoyuan stopped Zong Wei: "Grandpa, a few of us will go to your Zongren Mansion for dinner in the evening, are you always welcome?"
Zong Wei laughed: "I'm afraid you won't come, my old man is one, but he is very lonely!"
That night, the Zongren Mansion was the residence.
Zong Zhuoyuan and Lin You are the four of them, plus Zong Han Zongjing, and the two elders of Zong Ying and Sun Qing.
After Zong Zhuoyuan thought about it, even Zong Shufan and Zong Lin called over.
Although they were rivals competing for the head of the family that day, these two people admired Zong Zhuoyuan very much, and since Zong Zhuoyuan sat as the head of the family, they maintained it everywhere without any other thoughts.
The men gathered together at a large table and sat down.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Zong Zhuoyuan raised his glass and stood up, and said in his mouth: "Everyone is Zhuoyuan's closest person in the Zong family, and if you call everyone together today, you must have seen it, I have something to say." Saying that, Zong Zhuoyuan glanced at everyone: "Before speaking, I will do it as a respect!" After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it all.
Looking at Zong Shufan and Zong Lin, Zong Zhuo said from afar: "In the evening, our eldest brother Zong He escaped from the Zong family, have you heard?"
Zong Shufan and Zong Lin nodded.
Zong Zhuoyuan shook his head and said, "Today's assassin was sent by the eldest brother. ”
Even if he didn't say it, Zong Shufan and the others would have guessed it.
"Zongjing has found out that for many years, Zonghe has been contacting some loose cultivators, in order to seize the position of the head of the family, this assassination failed, he was afraid of my revenge, so he fled overnight!" Zong Zhuoyuan put down the wine glass, and the person was still standing: "For the position of a family master, the children of the Zong family cannibalize each other, when is it a head!"
Zong Shufan got up and said: "Seventh brother doesn't have to be so sad, as the so-called injustice will kill you, besides, you are the master of the authentic sect who will fight for it, everyone can see it, and now the sect family is under your leadership, growing stronger and stronger, and there is a faint momentum to become the first sect in the Tianyun Continent, and all the young disciples are proud of the family master of the seventh brother." In this case, even if someone has bad intentions, it will inevitably be difficult to achieve great things. ”
Zong Lin also stood up: "Yes, Seventh brother, don't worry, my brother will always support you." ”
Zong Zhuoyuan smiled: "Thank you two brothers, sit down, I'm not afraid of these people." ”
The two sat down.
Zong Zhuoyuan continued: "I'm not afraid that they have bad intentions, but I'm worried that they have hidden evil intentions. The so-called open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, and it would be good if he really came out with open guns and open knives, for fear that they would sow discord behind his back and play with right and wrong. Speaking of this, Zong Zhuoyuan paused: "And what I'm more worried about is that these people ignore the sect and collude with other sects to endanger the sect." In that case, everything we have worked so hard for may be ruined!"
"So, I thought of a way!" Zong Zhuoyuan said: "I used the excuse of traveling and leaving the Zong family for a while, first, I could step up my cultivation and help the Zong family secretly; When I have completed my cultivation and you have also managed the sect to flourish, I will come back, and when we are in full swing, we will naturally not be afraid of anything. ”
This remark had been spoken to Zong Ying Sun Qing and Zong Han Zong Jing before, so the four of them had already known that there was not much change in their faces.
But the other three were different, and their faces changed dramatically when they heard the words.
Zong Wei said: "Yuan'er, your family master has not been here, how can this work!"
Zong Lin also said: "Yes, Seventh Brother, you are the backbone of the Zong family, how can you not be there!"
Zong Shufan pondered for a moment, and said: "This is not a good strategy! Brother Zongshu has been holding back, but he is obviously waiting for an opportunity, and the eldest brother Zonghe is away again, and Zong Shaowen is also secretly cultivating forces outside, colluding with some small sects, waiting for an opportunity to fight back. And behind them, they also have the support of elders or clan patriarchs, so it can't be said that the world is peaceful for the head of the Seventh Brother's family. Speaking of this, Zong Shufan smiled: "Seventh Brother said well, when he leaves, these people have nowhere to go, and there is Seventh Brother, the real head of the family, in the dark, I don't think they dare to act rashly." ”
Zong Zhuoyuan nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean." ”
At this time, Zong Shufan frowned slightly and said: "It's just Seventh Brother, what should you do with your own safety after you leave the Zong family, you can't take those twenty people with you, so the goal is too big!"
Zong Zhuoyuan shook his head and said: "Those twenty people will stay in the Zong family, as a mobile force, if any of you go out to do errands, they will follow whomever they want, I have already ordered this, but you must remember that these twenty people can never be separated." ”
Zong Shufan shook his head: "But in this way, Seventh Brother, you will be in danger!"
Zong Zhuoyuan smiled: "You can rest assured, after I left, I didn't know where I was going, how could others know." Besides, my four brothers aren't easy to mess with!"
Seeing this, Zong Shufan knew that he couldn't persuade Zong Zhuoyuan, so he had to say: "Then Seventh Brother, you still have to show up within the scope of the Zong family from time to time, so that the children of the Zong family can know your news, after all, you are the head of the family, and it is still inappropriate not to show up for too long!"
Zong Zhuoyuan nodded: "Thank you brother for reminding me!"
Zong Shufan raised his glass and stood up and said: "Seventh brother sacrificed so much for the peace of the sect family, as a brother, I will toast you a glass, and swear to the wine, I will definitely take the seventh brother as an example and strive for the prosperity of the sect family!"
Zong Lin also raised his glass and stood up: "Respect the seventh brother, for the prosperity of the Zong family!"
"Okay, for the prosperity of the Zong family, my three brothers drink this cup together!" Zong Zhuoyuan said.
The three of them drank it all.
At this time, Zong Wei spoke: "Yuan'er, when will you come back when you leave?"
Zong Zhuoyuan looked at Zong Wei and said, "Grandpa, my grandson is here, mainly to experience and improve his cultivation." Speaking of this, he smiled mysteriously and said: "Is this second, some sects have been embarrassing my sect and want to intervene in it, and when my grandson goes out this time, I have to find some trouble for them!"
Zong Wei was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Zong Ying Sun Qing and Zong Shu Fan Zong Lin.
Immediately, the four of them looked at Zong Zhuoyuan at the same time, and they all said, "Qingfeng Gate!"
"That's right, it's Qingfeng Gate!" Zong Zhuoyuan said.
Zong Wei nodded: "Qingfengmen is indeed at odds with us, and for many years, as long as it is unfavorable to the Zong family, they have been involved in it. Speaking of this, Zong Wei changed his words: "It's not far away, Qingfeng Gate is deep-rooted and strong, you guys have to be careful!"
Zong Zhuoyuan nodded and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I naturally know this, when the strength is not enough, I will definitely not provoke him." ”
"It's just a matter of the Zong family, and we will have to rely on a few people to worry about it in the future!" Zong Zhuoyuan raised his glass again.
"What is within the division, why do you need to say more!" everyone raised their glasses.
This banquet did not disperse until late at night, and Zong Zhuoyuan said goodbye to everyone one by one.
