Seeing Fei Weng's disappointed expression, Zhou Jun first took a sip of wine and then said: "You are the deputy sect leader of the Hidden Sect. You are highly skilled in martial arts and have been with the sect leader for many years. You should be the best candidate to succeed him."
Fei Weng waved his hand and said: "The sect master and I are old friends. The reason why I joined the Hidden Sect was because of the sect master's strong persuasion. However, over the years, the sect master only wanted to pursue the way of the gods, and became more and more concerned about the affairs of the sect.
Being careless is what makes people like Shi Zucai form gangs and do whatever they want... If Zhou Lang accidentally takes over this hidden sect, I don't want to stay anymore..."
Zhou Jun glanced at Fei Weng and said: "I am a court official, and it is very inconvenient for me to do my job."
Fei Weng sighed softly after hearing this, and understood Zhou Jun's concerns.
Zhou Jun paused for a moment and said: "Since Fei Wengwuxin is the leader of the sect, I have a candidate who I can recommend to you."
Fionn: "Oh, who is it?"
Zhou Jun looked at Hua Yue beside him: "Your apprentice."
Seeing Fei Weng and Zhou Jun looking over at the same time, Hua Yue, who was eating cold melon, coughed and almost choked: "Me? The owner of the Hidden Sect?"
Regarding Zhou Jun's suggestion, Fei Weng found it incredible at first, then lowered his head and thought about it carefully for a while, and finally asked Zhou Jun: "My disciple, with you...?"
Zhou Jun: "Although Hua Yue is my maid in name, I treat her like family."
Huayue felt warm in her heart after hearing this.
Zhou Jun added: "I'm afraid Mu Xieh, the master of the Dharma Hall, will agree."
Huayue was stunned: "Why? Just because he and I are both big cannibals?"
Fei Weng and Zhou Jun looked at each other. They both knew Hua Yue's life experience and smiled tacitly.
Seeing this, Hua Yue frowned.
Feon: "If Mu Sheikh agrees, then just find two more people to nod."
Zhou Jun: "Fei Weng is referring to Master Kujing and Ming Po?"
Fei Weng: "In a few days, Master Kujing will come to Yanqi to arrange the funeral of the old sect leader. Everyone knows that he hates Shi Zucai. I will go and persuade him more, maybe it can be done."
Zhou Jun was silent, but he was thinking about something else in his mind.
Fei Weng rubbed the beard on his chin and said awkwardly: "As for persuading Hades, we can only take it one step at a time."
Zhou Jun picked up the wine glass, glanced at Fei Weng, and said: "Actually, the most important thing for the Hidden Sect at the moment is not to choose a new sect leader..."
Fionn: "Oh? What is that?"
Zhou Jun: "The master of the Hidden Sect has just passed away. If other forces in the Western Region hear this, how will they react?"
Feiong opened his eyes wide and his body trembled.
Zhou Jun: "Ever since the Yin Sect set up a business of catching red people, assassinating, looting, exterminating the family and other evil deeds, you have no way out. If the news of the death of the sect leader spreads again, you will definitely be attacked by a group of people.
"
Feiong's face was solemn.
Zhou Jun: "So, how to deal with the disaster that comes later is the key."
At this time, Huayue finally interjected: "Looking at it this way, my martial arts skills are sparse. I have only been in the Yinmen for a few days, and my reputation is not prominent. How can I help deal with the next disaster?"
Fei Weng thought carefully for a while, looked at Zhou Jun, and finally said to Huayue: "Zhou Lang is your master, I am your master, and the matter of the new sect master is settled! Don't do anything else.
No matter what, just practice martial arts well during this period."
Hua Yue paused and could only close his mouth angrily.
Fionn left the yard.
Seeing Zhou Jun smiling and saying nothing, Hua Yue grabbed his sleeve and asked in a deep voice: "You must be hiding something from me."
Zhou Jun patted Huayue's hand: "The position of the hidden sect master will definitely be of great use to you in the future."
Huayue thought for a moment and then asked: "I remember you said before that big things will happen during the Dashi this year, but is it related to this?"
Zhou Jun nodded.
Huayue was silent for a long time, and finally said: "As a prophet, Erlang said so, then I believe it."
Before Zhou Jun could speak, Hua Yue said again: "Just now, you said that you don't regard me as a maid, but treat me like a family member?" Zhou Jun put away his smile and nodded solemnly.
A happy smile appeared on Hua Yue's face, she closed her eyes, gently pressed her forehead against Zhou Jun's chest, and said softly: "With Erlang's words, Hua Yue is satisfied."
A few days later, Master Kujing rushed to Fei Weng's house. He first performed rituals for the remains of the old sect leader, and then met Zhou Jun in the backyard.
Master Kujing was originally from the Tang Dynasty. He came from Shuofang. He was born in a farmer's family and was the youngest in his family.
When he was young, because of his intelligence and love of reading, he was appreciated by the wealthy gentry and became a reading boy for his eldest son.
Later, your son killed someone outside and committed a crime. He originally wanted to blame the scholar, but the latter got the news in advance and found the opportunity to escape from his hometown. He traveled to the Western Regions and became a novice monk in a temple.
After listening to the introduction, Zhou Jun looked at Master Kujing.
This monk was over fifty years old. Because he had been busy writing documents for a long time, his back was bent like a hunchback, and his eyes were a little white and cloudy. He looked like an inconspicuous old monk.
But Fei Weng said that Master Kujing was not only talented in literature and martial arts, but also managed the large and small industries of the Yin Sect, and had never made any mistakes for so many years.
At the same time, Master Kujing was also observing Zhou Jun.
After a while, Master Kujing first chanted "Buddha" and then said: "Lao Na knows a little bit about Zhou Almsgiver's affairs... The Yinmen are offering red rewards and want to take your head from your neck. I thought you would stay away from the Western Regions.
, but I didn’t expect you to dare to come to Yanqi.”...
Zhou Jun: "Standing back will only give the enemy more opportunities to take advantage of. Only by taking the initiative can we find a way to win in the enemy's formation."
Master Kujing: "Amitabha, Almsgiver Zhou is quite courageous."
Fei Weng said: "Master Kujing, I want to ask you to talk today. Not only do I want to discuss the burial of the old sect leader, but I also want to talk about the selection of the new sect leader."
Master Kujing looked at Zhou Jun and asked Fei Weng, "Donor Zhou wants to enter the Yinmen Gate?"
Fionn: "No, it's not him."
Master Kujing turned to Fei Weng: "Could it be you?"
Fionn: "Not me either."
Master Kujing asked calmly: "Who is that?"
Fei Weng: "She is my new female apprentice."
Master Kujing's face remained as usual: "Why her?"
Fei Weng: "She is my apprentice, Zhou Lang's family, even Mu Sheikh recognized her as the head of the sect."
Master Kujing's face changed slightly, and he confirmed to Fei Weng: "Mu Sheikh also agreed?"
Fei Weng: "If you don't believe it, you can ask him."
Master Kujing shook his head and said: "It's just nonsense. How can you let a woman who has just started to become the new sect leader? If you say this, wouldn't it make others look down on the hidden sect?"
Zhou Jun and Fei Weng looked at each other.
Zhou Jun said in a deep voice: "Master, the Hidden Sect has made enemies everywhere in the Western Regions in the past few years and is already in danger."
Master Kujing: "The Yin Sect's power is spread all over the Western Region, and its properties are countless. Even if some young people covet it, how can it be said that it is in danger?"
Zhou Jun: "The teachings adhered to by the Yinmen were originally regarded as heresies by other religions. In these years, they also made a living by catching reds. Although they made money everywhere and plundered a lot, they had enemies all over the place, including the Anxi Protectorate.
, and I want to get rid of you quickly. In the past, the Yin Sect was very powerful and had strong men in charge, which made other people dare not make trouble. But now, the sect leader has recently died, fighting is endless, and people are distracted. If these situations are eliminated by the Western Regions,
If other forces learn about it, then the Hidden Sect is not far from being destroyed."
Master Kujing's face became increasingly ugly.
Zhou Jun: "Therefore, the most important thing for the Yin Sect at the moment is not who will be the sect leader, but how to deal with the next disaster."
After Master Kujing heard this, he finally spoke: "If Almsgiver Zhou has a method, I will listen attentively."
Zhou Jun: "In order to fight against the outside world, we must first make peace with the inside."
Upon hearing these words, Master Kujing was stunned.
Zhou Jun simply made it clear: "If the diseased flesh with malignant sores is left, it will only harm the patient. Cutting it off in time is the best way."
Master Kujing vaguely understood Zhou Jun's words, but struggled in his heart and remained silent.
Seeing that he was still unwilling to express his position, Fei Weng said directly: "What Zhou Lang means is that taking advantage of the death of the old sect leader to recruit others to gather in Yanqi to discuss the election of a new sect leader is a lie, and it is better to take the opportunity to get rid of the dissenters."
