Chapter Forty-Eight: Meeting the Same Door
Chu Shan has been alone in the secret realm these days, looking for opportunities, I don't know if Chu Shan's own luck is enough, or hesitating Chu Shan himself is careful enough, in short, Chu Shan has not encountered any danger in the next few days. Of course, at the same time, there is not much to gain. These days, Chu Mountain has found nothing except for the unique flowers and trees in the secret realm that have been transplanted with hundreds. Presently. Chushan's natal world has a radius of fifty miles, except for some vegetation in the middle of more than ten miles, the rest of the place is still desolate, you know, the expansion of the natal world is not overnight, but first expand the corresponding space, and then have their own transformation, and this transformation requires huge resources, Chushan's hundreds of thousands of high-grade spirit stones are just a drop in the bucket, and the role is limited. However, fortunately, Chu Shan's natal spiritual object is the World Tree, which can absorb spiritual energy from the void and replenish it into the world, although the current speed is limited, but it is better to last.
This day is already the twentieth day of entering the secret realm. Chu Shan slowly searched cautiously as usual, hoping to find something valuable. But there was still nothing, just when Chu Shan was disappointed, there was a faint sound of fighting in front of him, and there were several strange cries during the period, which seemed to be some kind of demon beast. After Chu Shan heard this, his spirits perked up, and he immediately walked forward slowly. Not long after, Chu Shan entered a small forest, and there was a clearing in the forest, and in the clearing, there were ten people, both men and women, who were besieging a one-horned rhinoceros beast. Although the cultivation of the one-horned rhinoceros beast is not high, and it only has the realm of perfection in the qi cultivation period, it has rough skin and thick flesh, and its defense is amazing. In addition, the body of the demon beast was originally very strong, and these people's attacks only scratched some small injuries on the body of the demon beast, and did not hurt the root. In vain to provoke the demon beast. But fortunately, the demon beast seemed to be trapped by these ten people with a formation, and there was no danger for a while.
Seeing this situation, Chu Shan immediately walked out and said with a smile, "Senior brothers and sisters, junior brother Chu Shan, but what do you need help with?"
The ten people immediately turned around, only to find that there was a young man standing next to the woods, wearing the clothes of an inner disciple, who seemed to be a third-level inner disciple. Chu Shan saw that these people were extremely inexperienced in struggle, and they actually left the one-horned rhinoceros beast alone, and everyone turned around, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead. Sure enough, before Chu Shan finished thinking about it, the formation that trapped the unicorn rhinoceros beast was in jeopardy, Chu Shan hurriedly shouted, "Be careful! The unicorn rhinoceros beast is coming out!" As soon as he finished speaking, five of them immediately concentrated on controlling the formation with all their might, and fortunately, they slowly controlled it again. Everyone including Izuyama breathed a long sigh of relief, after all, if the one-horned rhinoceros beast got out of trouble, the people here would definitely have casualties.
"Senior Brother Chu is serious!" one of the figures who seemed to be the leader came out, "We finally trapped this one-horned rhinoceros, and now we still have some strength left, but we don't have to worry about Senior Brother Chu." After speaking, he was still vigilant, as if Chu Shan was some kind of flood beast.
At this moment, another man shouted, "You are Chu Shan, the dark horse of the champion of the many family competitions?"
"If there is no other Chushan, it is me. Chu Shan smiled faintly.
"I didn't expect it to be Senior Brother Chu!" the leader seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately said with a smile, "I was offended just now, under Zhang Daoran, here are all my Zhang family disciples." ”
Chu Shan nodded, and suddenly said, "Chu has something unclear, just ...... just now?"
"You mean why did our attitude change just now?" Zhang Daoran said with a smile.
Chu Shan nodded, and he did have some doubts in his heart. "Let me tell you!" a beautiful woman beside Zhang Daoran said with a smile, "In the next Zhang Ziyan, in fact, it was because of your status as an inner disciple just now. ”
"Oh, I want to hear it!" Chu Shan was even more puzzled.
"Because each family has its own unique family identity, but Brother Chu wears the clothes of an inner disciple without any family markings, which makes us think that he is a disciple of the sect. Zhang Ziyan said firmly.
"Oh, aren't the children of the family also disciples of the sect?" Chu Shan was even more puzzled.
"This is different!" Another beautiful woman next to Zhang Ziyan suddenly said, "Brother Chu is polite, the little sister is Zhang Ziyi, the sect is the sect, the family is the family, and now there are many inner disciples in the secret realm who hunt the elites of various families." ”
Just as Chu Shan was about to ask again, the one-horned rhinoceros beast trapped in the formation fell to the ground with a bang, as if it had been fatally injured by something. Looking at Chu Shan's surprised eyes, Zhang Daoran laughed and said, "Actually, this one-horned rhinoceros beast has been drugged by us before, and now is the time for the drug to attack." Chu Shan suddenly realized, no wonder these people just trapped him, and did not carry out a violent attack, but only carried out some harassment, so that the rhinoceros could not break the formation with all his strength.
"Brother Chu, it's better to meet by chance, why don't you stay and taste the taste of the one-horned rhinoceros?" Zhang naturally invited.
"I don't dare to ask for ears if I want to!" Chu Shan said with a laugh, "Chu has been immersed in cultivation all these years, and it seems that he doesn't understand a lot of things, and he will ask Brother Zhang for advice for a while." ”
"Brother Chu is serious!" Zhang naturally said with a smile, "It's not a secret, Brother Chu will naturally know as soon as he inquires!
About half an hour passed. The Zhang family had already completely roasted the whole rhinoceros, and Chu Shan took a thigh and asked while eating, "Is there any difference between the sect disciples and the family disciples?"
"Actually, this is also Brother Chu's perennial family, so I don't know. It's almost an open secret now. Zhang naturally sighed, "In the past few hundred years, the strength of the sect has weakened, but the major families have been thriving and their strength has been continuously strengthened, and now it is almost like fire and water. ”
"Is there such a strict zhòng?" Chu Shan was taken aback.
"It's even stricter than this!" Zhang naturally said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, why would the inner disciples frantically hunt the reserve forces of the major families every time they are in the secret realm?"
"It's not because I want to weaken the vitality of the major families!" Zhang Ziyi said disdainfully.
"Aren't they afraid of the backlash of the major families?" Chu Shan directly said the question in his heart.
"It's just tacit!" Zhang Ziyan said lightly, "What's more, this is also a kind of experience for the disciples of the major families, after all, the big waves sweep the sand, and what is left is the essence!"
"This is too bloody, isn't it!" Chu Shan said in surprise, "What's more, it seems that in the entire Qianzhou Continent, there is not only one sect in our Taixuanmen, but also countless mortal sects mixed with families, isn't the sect afraid of weakening the overall amount by doing this?"
"Therefore, these battles have always been controlled within the Dharma Pattern Period, and those who exceed the Dharma Pattern realm are not allowed to take action, otherwise the rest of the people will attack them!" Zhang Daoran said suddenly, "In this case, the losses will also be controlled within a certain range, and they will not hurt the fundamentals." After all, no matter where it is, the backbone is still the master of the Divine Pattern Period. ”
"I see!" Chu Shan let out a long breath, "It turns out that the contradiction between the family and the sect has reached this point. But in the secret realm, hunting down the elite disciples of the major families didn't fundamentally weaken the family's strength?"
"That's good!" a big man walked over and introduced himself, "In the next Zhang Naturally, it is Zhang Daoran's younger brother." ”
"Brother Zhang, what do you think?" Chu Shan asked with a smile.
"Actually, the sect wants to destroy the power of the family!" Zhang Tiantian said amazingly, "Now the sect recruits disciples who are generally from small families, that is, they laugh and purify the components of the sect, and then provoke contradictions in the family, make them attack each other, and finally reap the benefits of the fisherman!"
"Oh, don't the people of the family know?" asked Chu Shan.
"Know!" Zhang's natural answer made Chu Shan stunned for a while.
"But this is a plan, after all, if the family wants to develop, it needs resources, and the family is not monolithic. Zhang naturally said, "On the one hand, the sect hits the power of the descendants of the family, and on the other hand, restricts the development progress of the family, so that after ten or decades, when the high-end power of the family, such as the master of the spirit pattern, disappears in various ways, such as the end of life or the fall of the battle, etc., the family will slowly be assimilated and absorbed by the sect, and finally truly become a member of the sect." ”
"I see!" Chu Shan asked directly, "So has there been any family that has announced its separation from the Taixuanmen halfway?"
"Yes!" Zhang naturally said, "But without exception, they were all wiped out!" Chu Shan was taken aback when he heard it.
"This is because there are still many high-end forces in the sect, and under normal circumstances, these forces only play a deterrent role, after all, whether it is a family or a sect, they are nominally people from the Taixuanmen, and they are internal contradictions. Once they leave the sect, it is a hostile relationship, and these people can take action. ”
Chu Shan suddenly realized. This is equivalent to a fight between their own brothers, no matter who wins, in the end it is still Taixuanmen. But once he rebelled, it would be a never-ending death! Chu Shan couldn't help but move in his heart when he thought of this. After all, he is now a disciple of a family, isn't he afraid of raising tigers, or does he say that the head of the sect has enough followers? Chu Shan couldn't understand it for a while, so he had to shake his head and wait for a while.
