"About thirteen thousand years ago, some of the elders in the group of elders were traveling together because they were bored. It turned out that when they came back a few years later, two elders were seriously injured and two elders died!"
"It stands to reason that in an elders' group of twenty elders, there is no problem if two of them die, but the two injured people can just stay in seclusion to heal their wounds and ignore affairs outside the clan for the time being. If there are twenty elders in the elders' group, four people will be removed for one thing.
!”
"Bulian was the one who died, not the one who was injured. They happened to be from their side, so we asked an elder from their side with good medical skills to accompany the two seriously injured people in retreat together!"
"He didn't even think much about it at first. It wasn't until several major events happened outside the clan that the elders needed to make decisions. He suddenly realized that those who died and were injured were all from their side who joined the group to heal the wounds!"
However, he is really unwilling to do so!
If he hadn't seen the glory of the Black Ink Clan, maybe he would have accepted his fate long ago!
"Grandpa, he doesn't have high expectations, they just won't give in! Once upon a time, the Black Ink Clan was so..." Tong Lao said with some sadness.
He didn't know what to say, was he hopeful and looking forward to it?
"It turns out that Qu Chu's decision-making mistakes led to the rapid decline of the Mo clan's status in the east. Alas, it's all a family scandal..." Tong Lao said disappointedly.
"The remaining fifteen members of the elders' group had disagreements. When it came to voting, their side always had one vote less, so they initially followed the wrong side's wishes. By then Minghong came over, and it was already too late!"
"The Mo Clan is really..." Mo Jiuli was a little confused and didn't know what to say.
Forget about the split outside the clan, a group of high-ranking elders was finally split. Mo Jiuli really didn’t know how such a Mo clan could exist to such an extent!
"Grandpa, is it true that there is hope for the Mo clan?" Mo Jiuli asked with a straight face.
Hearing this, Tong Lao looked at Mo Jiuli and didn't shut up for a long time!
To be honest, he is gone, but he is unwilling to do so!
How glorious and powerful the Black Ink Clan was in the past, how chilling the current Black Ink Clan was to him!
Mo Jiuli almost understood what Tong Lao meant!
Tong Lao and others watched the Black Ink Clan grow from strong to weak. It was not all because of the outside world's catching up, which made the Black Ink Clan worse and worse. Instead, it was because there were many problems outside the Black Ink Clan!
It's the so-called resources. Most people in the Black Ink Clan just think about themselves!
That's a common problem in big families, because the family is too big, has too many people, direct and collateral lines are hierarchical, and resources are divided according to status and talent!
If the resources are good, it is great, if the resources are poor, it is too bad. With such hugely different families, how can we miss them so much? We miss our family, but more of ourselves!
A family like that, without a strong and capable person to lead it, was a mess at first, all thinking about themselves, with problems everywhere. This is obviously the case with the Black Ink Clan!
And Tong Lao and others have suffered before and witnessed the family's prosperity!
As they grow older, gain more experience, and broaden their minds, they will yearn for the Black Ink Clan to be better and better!
However, the Black Ink Clan makes them unable to do anything no matter how hard they try, which makes Tong Lao and others unwilling!
After all, they are devoted to the family, and even have a very high status outside the family, but they can't change anything. How frustrating that is...
