Chapter 423 The Disaster of Fish in the Pond [Asking for a guarantee at the beginning of the month]
PS: It’s the beginning of January again. Lao Lai is here to ask for your support. There will be more updates in the evening. I’d like to ask for monthly votes.
………………
Hou Zi finally determined the direction of his swordsmanship. It took him twenty years since he entered kendo to roughly clarify it.
He doesn't know what will happen to him in the future if he makes this choice? But judging from his current situation, there is no way out.
It was impossible for him to follow the steps like other Yan Sect sword cultivators and maintain a level comparable to that of Dao Dao Sect's elite Dharma cultivators. This was not what he wanted.
After being exposed to real swordsmanship, he could never forget the feeling of relief.
Once upon a time, the sea was difficult to overcome, but the sword was not a sword except for the body!
He likes the feeling of blood splattering right in front of his eyes under the edge of a sword. If he is too far away, it seems that he is not enjoying himself to the fullest?
You won't fall into the devil's path, will you?
Although Yanmen Quanzhen is called a demon by others, not many of these sword cultivators consider themselves to be real demons.
This demon is not that demon.
Having made the decision, his mood suddenly became brighter; the only thing that still bothered him now was how to get the remnants of the Shenjian Jue in the basement.
Pour yourself a glass of wine, lie on the rockery in the garden, feel the warmth of the sun, and wonder how to break this inexplicable thin ice between him and Li Chuping?
Proud people seem to be like this, right?
Maybe, he chased too fast and made the old man feel in danger?
A smile appeared at the corner of Hou Zi's mouth, thinking with some malicious intent.
………………
Hou Zi was thinking about his boss, but his boss had no time to think about him.
In the main hall of Sikong Mansion, more than a dozen senior officials are having a regular meeting; there is always such a meeting every three months to conduct an in-depth exchange of opinions on the overall supervision of Shanmen Quanzhen and the situation on the mainland, handle emergencies, and arrange the next one. Quarterly tasks.
The people presiding over the meeting were Master Xu Kezhuang of the Sikong Mansion and Master Zong Yuanhengzong of the Deputy Mansion. They were also the only two real men of the Sikong Mansion.
The dozen or so people below are all Jindan monks, and they are also responsible for the functions in various places, including Li Chuping.
Li Chuping took the position of Captain of Jincheng and rose to the rank of Sikong Mansion, which is the most standard promotion path in the supervision system. He has the ability, the realm is sufficient, and he also has a strong background in Yujing, so everything comes naturally.
But five years is not enough for him to occupy a very important position in Sikong Mansion. He is more responsible for dealing with some miscellaneous matters and emergencies. Since it is a semi-official government, it will definitely be based on seniority and ranking. Enter.
The proceedings have their own procedures, internal and external, disciplinary reporting... Everyone here is a veteran, and everyone is experienced, so the progress is very fast.
Don't talk about small things. Solve any troubles, no matter how big or small, by yourself. Anything that can be mentioned here is a big deal, otherwise the two real people will be impatient.
Among them, the bloody conflict between Mirage City and Wumen was mentioned.
"Wu Zhengming's handling is quite decent, so I will leave it to him to handle it with full authority. Those who died were not Wu Clan monks, so this matter is not a big deal. I believe it will subside after a while, so there is no need to worry about it." Xu The real person waved his hand, "Conflicts like this are normal, as long as the two families can control it themselves."
A Jin Dan who was in charge of the direction of the Wu Sect said softly: "Is it possible that there were no Wu Sect monks killed or injured? We just got the news that a Wu Sect Jin Dan was killed while operating in Linhai. It seems to be related to the mirage incident..."
"Who did it?"
Na Jin Dan was very cautious, "I don't know, and the Wu sect doesn't seem to make any big fanfare?"
Zong Zhenren sneered, "Does that mean I'm in the wrong? They can tolerate it, so we just pretend we don't know, or do you know who did it? We are one of our own?"
Everyone shook their heads. The death of a sect's golden elixir was no small matter. No one dared to say anything if they were not sure.
Especially Li Chuping, there are suspects, but it's hard to say.
Master Chu said more, "Which disciple is the one who caused the trouble? He did things without any clue. If things continue like this, I don't know how much trouble he will cause to the sect. Is there any punishment?"
All the golden elixirs looked at Li Chuping. This was an accidental incident involving the former Jincheng monk, so they passed it on to him. There has been no movement in the past few months, and I don't know how it was handled.
Li Chuping was secretly annoyed. He thought people wouldn't take such a small matter seriously, but he didn't expect it to be brought out this time, making it difficult for him to step down. Because he handled this matter out of selfish motives and relied on his own power to suppress it. Come down.
This unlucky thing will be bad if it gets on it!
He worded his words carefully, "This person's name is Hou Zi. His situation is quite special, so he has no fixed affiliation. The current relationship is still pending selection by the Marshal's Mansion. Because of the change of leadership in Jincheng, there is no time to arrange the responsibilities.
Later, he went to Lizhihai and temporarily returned to Lihai Jiedu Mansion for deployment, and no one paid even more attention to him.
This person is indeed the first offender, but he cannot handle the robbery in the name of pirates alone. Almost all the Lihai sword cultivators, including Duanmuzhen, participated in it, and there are also many who personally participated in the Baptism of Green Vine. several.
Therefore, it is a nest case, not an individual case."
Expanding the scope of participation means diluting the crime, and there are countless rhetoric. Li Chuping, who has been in this industry for a long time, knows what he should say. Of course, everyone present also understands.
But since it is a fact, there is nothing wrong with it; Li Chuping is not trying to help this guy now, he is thinking about how to get himself out to reduce the fact that he is bending the law for personal gain.
It's okay to bend the law for personal gain once, but if you do it too often, you will lose trust in the real person, which he doesn't want to do.
Zong Zhenren is very keen, "A monk in the second level of Tongtian can already be regarded as a pillar in the local area. When did Da Fengyuan be so heroic and could turn a blind eye to such a disciple? Or is there another reason?"
Li Chuping had to tell the truth, because these things could be known with just a little inquiry and could not be hidden from anyone.
"This person, this person has a naughty nature, he is best at causing trouble, and it is not easy to control his income in the palace, so he puts it off again and again..."
"What do you think?"
Li Chuping knew that pushing this guy out to ward off the disaster would do no good at all. It would only prove his previous selfishness, and would also leave a bad reputation in the eyes of real people that they dare not take responsibility for.
All we have to do is hold on, "Chu Ping thought there was no need to make a fuss.
The Wu clan has made many small moves in Lizhihai. There are many pirates who have more or less connections with them behind the scenes. Over the years, they have eliminated dissidents and retaliated a lot. What they can do, can't we do it?
Since you can’t show off on the surface, it’s a good idea to treat the other person the way he wants, and it’s a good idea to create a pirate to fight against.”
Zong Zhenren still did not let him go. "This is feasible, there is no doubt, but the speed involved requires a certain amount of wisdom. Why are the pirates starting to come ashore? This makes it difficult for us to explain to Linhai Wo Sect!"
I’m talking about this person, what’s his name? Just let him get into trouble and leave without caring about it? No reprimand or punishment at all?”
Li Chuping gritted his teeth and said, "It's better to keep it in the pocket than to lecture."
