Late at night, in Cangsong Hall, the shining lights illuminate the huge hall as bright as day.
This hall is the largest hall in the Taishan sect. It is specially reserved for many people to discuss matters. This hall is not only large, but also has excellent sound insulation effect. When talking in it, outsiders can't hear anything even if they stand under the wall. Warriors
There is no need to deliberately use sound transmission when speaking here.
The only people who have the authority to convene the disciples here to discuss matters are the headmaster himself or Le Shishi, who is in charge of the affairs on his behalf. In the past seven years, Leshiji has generally used this hall. It has been seven years since the head Jintai convened the disciples here to discuss matters.
An unprecedented first time.
At this moment, Jin Tai is sitting at the top, presiding over the overall situation of the Taishan Sect. The simple and tall chair he is sitting on is carved from a thousand-year-old pine. It is a simple chair, but it symbolizes that he is in charge of the Taishan Sect.
The supreme power of the faction. Next to this chair, there is nothing around, and it looks empty. No matter how high their status is, other people can only sit a little further away. In this way, the position of the leader has many
It gave me a bit of a feeling of being overwhelmed by the cold at high places.
On either side of the first person, the rest of the sect were seated in equal order. Anyone with a certain status was basically all present. Le did not know, the Three Musketeers of Taishan, Yu Ling'er, Zhang Tiemian, Chang Yong, Feng Ming, Zhao
There are many people waiting for you.
Jin Tai scanned the whole hall and saw that everyone was almost there, so he said: "I have heard about what happened on the mountain on the way, and I just listened to Le Bushi telling it again, and I already have a rough idea in my mind. What happened in the Three Sword Sect?
What they did once was really too much, and it was a bit too much. Although Leng Xing, a member of their sect, was injured by our people, we should not use this as an excuse to threaten to kill the sect. In addition,
.Chang Yong, what you did was also wrong. In that situation, you really shouldn't have added fuel to the fire and verbally insulted Zhuo Hongri, the leader of the Three Sword Sect. Without your dirty words, things might not have developed to this point.
As a punishment, you will be removed from your position as the leader of the Weiwu Hall from today, and all affairs of the Weiwu Hall will be temporarily taken over by the deputy leader Feng Ming. In addition, you will be punished by going to the 'Thinking Cave' to face the wall for a month. This is a small punishment."
"Master, in that situation, the people of the Three Sword Sect were sitting on our necks and shitting. How can I endure this?" Chang Yong stood up and said angrily, obviously a little bit.
Not convinced.
"You talk back to me, but you still don't seem to repent. In this case, let's extend the one-month period to three months. If you talk back again, we will extend it for another three months." Jin Tai suddenly sighed.
His face was downcast, and his whole body was filled with anger and self-confidence. He exuded the domineering aura of a person in power. If he didn't even have this temper, he wouldn't be able to be the leader.
Chang Yong's face changed drastically when he heard this. He was a bloody man, and his face suddenly turned red with anger. The people around him were afraid that Chang Yong would continue to contradict the leader, so they quickly whispered to dissuade him. Chang Yong's face changed several times, and finally he was
He had to give in, reluctantly said "Thank you, Master, for your kindness", and backed away. He was dismissed from the position of hall leader, so naturally he was no longer qualified to sit there.
After Chang Yong was dismissed from his post, the deputy hall master Feng Ming naturally became the acting hall master. This person looked calm on the surface, but there was still a hint of joy in his eyes, which showed that he was still very proud in his heart.
When Zhao Zheng heard the news, he frowned slightly, glanced at Feng Ming intentionally or unintentionally, and said in his heart: "This spy sent by the Three Swordsmen Sect is really a big problem for the Taishan Sect. Now the affairs of the two sects are all because of
My arrival was disrupted, I have to get him and another spy out of the sect as soon as possible, otherwise, the two of them will definitely bring big trouble to the Taishan sect in the future."
After dealing with Chang Yong, Jin Tai continued: "Both sides are at fault for this conflict between us and the Three Sword Sect, and we cannot pass all the responsibilities to the Three Sword Sect. Early tomorrow morning, I will go to the Three Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect came to visit and held a negotiation with them to discuss how to deal with the matter. As the saying goes, it is better to resolve enemies than to end them. For long-term considerations, I will try my best to find ways to turn the conflict into friendship with the Sandao Sect. If the conflict continues to expand,
It’s very detrimental to both our sects.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a person stood up from the front position on the right side. This person had a tall figure, two eyebrows like lightning, flying into his temples, his eyes were shining, and he was extremely agile. He was actually Thunderbolt, one of the Three Musketeers of Mount Tai.
Swordsman Lei Ming. He walked up to the leader, stood still, and saluted: "Master, you are kind-hearted and kind-hearted. You don't like to kill people, but some things cannot be settled with a few words.
If you continue to be tolerant to the Three Sword Sect, it will only make the Three Sword Sect intensify and push further. Even if the turmoil is temporarily calmed down, something will happen sooner or later in the future. Although Hall Master Chang's previous behavior was a bit reckless, it may not be what he did.
Wrong. The hatred between us and the Three Sword Sect is as deep as the sea. There will be a battle sooner or later in the future. Unless one party falls, this feud will never end. In this case, we might as well strike first.
, Gather all the power of the Taishan Sect, and then invite some friends from the world to help, and wipe out the Three Sword Sect in one fell swoop, so that the name Three Sword Sect will never be known in the world again..."
"Okay, stop talking!" Jin Tai became more and more angry as he listened. He couldn't help frowning, raised his white eyebrows, and shouted, "Our Taishan sect is a well-known and decent family, not a gangster. How can we do such unreasonable things?"
, the fight. The relationship between our sect and the Three Sword Sect is very complicated. It is not a confrontation between good and evil factions, and the problems between us cannot be solved by such rough means. The reason why I have been against the Three Swordsmen these years
The Sword Sect is always tolerant, mainly because of three considerations. Firstly, we and the founder of the Sandao Sect are both Heguan Taoist priests. Tracing back to our roots, we are both disciples of the same master. Our relationship is like brothers; secondly,
The case seven years ago has not yet been concluded, and I have not been able to prove my innocence. If we kill all the Three Sword Sects, people in the world will definitely identify me as the murderer. In this case, I will be safe even if I jump into the Yellow River.
I don’t know; thirdly, our two sects have many disciples, each with thousands of disciples. If we fight, these innocent disciples will definitely be implicated. As the leader, how can I bear it?"
"I don't understand what the leader said, but procrastinating like this is not a solution after all. It will only make things worse and worse. In that unjust case seven years ago, the person who died was the leader of the Three Sword Sect.
Zhuo Ming, Zhuo Hongri, as the son of Zhuo Ming, will definitely not give up. Now that Zhuo Hongri has determined that you are the murderer, he will definitely still hold a grudge against you and the Taishan sect in the future. If this unjust case can be investigated, it will be better.
It's easy to say. In this way, the leader, you have cleared the relationship, which can naturally resolve the grievances between the two sects. But if this unjust case remains unsolved, the leader, you will have to continue to take the blame. Now seven years have passed, and time has passed.
After dragging on for so long, there is still no improvement in this case. From this point of view, it is likely that the truth of this case will never be revealed." Lei Ming was unmoved and talked eloquently. What he said was actually not unreasonable. Many of them
When people heard this, they also nodded secretly.
"Sigh. It's really difficult to investigate this unjust case. I haven't found any major clues yet. I left the Taishan sect a while ago. I plan to visit a few witnesses at the time and ask some questions from their mouths.
The situation at that time. It turned out that some of the witnesses were dead and some were missing, which made it even more difficult to verify." Jin Tai's face was as dark as water, and he sighed softly. In this regard, he really couldn't find anything.
To rebuttal.
"Master, since we cannot investigate this case, the grievances between us and the Three Sword Sect have become an unsolvable knot. It is simply impossible to resolve it with gentle means. If we want to preserve the Taishan Sect,
, we can only use some thunderous methods!" Lei Ming's eyes flashed, and he bit the last four words very hard.
The atmosphere in Cangsong Hall suddenly became much more depressing, and everyone understood in their hearts what thunder method Lei Ming was referring to.
The world is in a dilemma. If Jin Tai's innocence cannot be cleared, if the Taishan Sect wants to protect itself, the only way is to defeat the Three Sword Sect. Apart from this method, there is no more choice. Although the Taishan Sect
He is a well-known and decent sect, but he cannot bear to continue to be oppressed by the Three Sword Sect. After the recent battle at Shanmen, more and more people from the Taishan Sect are inclined to fight to the death with the Three Sword Sect. If this continues, I am afraid that even
Jin Tai, the leader, was unable to suppress this restless situation.
Everyone in Cangsong Hall turned their attention to Jin Tai, waiting for the leader's answer. For a moment, all the pressure was on Jin Tai alone. The iron bones of the eleventh-level warrior were unexpectedly
This invisible pressure made me shorter.
Jin Tai looked at Lei Ming and then at the people around him, knowing that he was already on a dead end and had to make a decision no matter what today. This decision was really too difficult for him!
If he chooses to continue to tolerate it, the Three Sword Sect will continue to cause trouble to the Taishan Sect in the future, and this conflict will continue to intensify. Sooner or later, the tragedy seven years ago will happen again. As the leader, he
Of course, I don’t want to see my disciples suppressed or even killed.
If he chooses to retaliate against the Three Blades Sect in turn, he will be infamous as a murderer, and the Taishan Sect will be humiliated, losing the face of the famous and decent sect, and turning into an evil sect trying to annex the Three Blades Sect in people's eyes, and will be forever stigmatized.
With just a few fingers pointing, there is no chance of a comeback. In this way, while defeating the Three Sword Sect, the Taishan Sect will also collapse, and there will be no good outcome.
He didn't want to choose either of these two options, so he had to find another way and choose the third option.
Most people think that there are only two options to choose from, but in fact it is not the case. There is a third option for Jintai to choose from, but this option also comes with a heavy price.
"Tomorrow I will negotiate with the Three Sword Sect to bring this matter to a successful conclusion. I promise to resolve the grievances between the two sects so that the Three Sword Sect will never have a reason to trouble us in the future. Regarding this matter
, you don’t need to say any more." Jin Tai said slowly. He kept saying that he would solve all problems, but there was no joy on his face.
Everyone didn't know why, and several people raised questions about this, asking the leader what the solution was, but what they got in exchange was not an answer, but a scolding. Due to the majesty of the leader, everyone did not dare to ask any more questions, so they had to swallow their questions.
Back in the belly.
After that, Jin Tai talked about other things with everyone, and asked Le Shishi to report the current situation inside the door in public. It was not until midnight that the meeting came to an end and was declared over.
After the meeting, everyone swarmed out and left Cangsong Hall. Some wanted to return to their posts, while others wanted to go back to rest. Everyone left, but Jin Tai did not leave, but remained sitting alone.
Sitting on the chair, he closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. Under the light, his fairy-like face seemed to have aged several years, making people feel that he was vaguely pitiful.
If one reveals the aura of being the head of the Taishan Sect and an eleventh-level warrior, he is just a poor old man who was wrongly accused.
…
Zhao Zheng was walking on the road to Chaoyangju, frowning, and like the rest of the Taishan Sect, he was thinking about the grudges between the Taishan Sect and the Three Sword Sect, and how to resolve the disputes.
He has a way, but it is very difficult to implement it. It is not something he can implement now. He really has more than enough intention but not enough power, so he can only stare and watch the situation get worse.
Head Jintai claimed that he would join the Three Swordsman Sect tomorrow and successfully resolve the conflict between the two factions. A person of his status would never talk big words. Since he said it, he would do it. But the problem is, he will
What method should be used to resolve this contradiction?
Since the direction of the matter has exceeded Zhao Zheng's knowledge, even he cannot fully predict what will happen in the future and can only guess based on thin air.
Will Jin Tai apologize?
This is impossible. Even if Jin Tai kneels down to the people of the Three Sword Sect, he will never be able to make the Three Sword Sect put down the Tang Sword in his hand. The reason why the Three Sword Sect attacked Taishan is not just for revenge. Who is better than Zhao Zheng in this regard?
All clear.
Will Jin Tai use force to deal with the Three Sword Sect?
This is also impossible. Jin Tai has many scruples and cannot do such a thing at all.
Will Jin Tae trade benefits for peace?
This possibility still exists, but the peace gained will definitely be short-lived, and some petty profits will not be able to quell the fighting between the two factions.
These methods have little effect at all. Zhao Zheng can think of this, and Jin Tai can definitely think of it. Since he can think of it, he will not make these useless attempts.
Since these methods are useless, what measures will Jintai take?
Zhao Zheng was puzzled, thinking hard all the way, and suddenly a spark flashed in his mind, and he thought of a terrible possibility. He took a breath, suddenly opened his eyes, and murmured: "Could it be that..." (
