"This old lady, can you get up and speak?" Zhou Xingyun calculated the time. The old woman had been kneeling here for nearly half an hour. If not an hour, it had been more than forty minutes.
Not to mention the elderly, even the young and vigorous men would not be able to stand kneeling for thirty minutes under the hot sun.
The old woman knelt for a long time, during which she waved her cane for a while in order to compete with the people from the Wulin Alliance. Zhou Xingyun could see that the old woman could no longer hold on any longer, and now she knelt down with only her will and one breath.
Over there.
If no one takes care of her, the old woman's old body will definitely collapse from exhaustion. The old man's body's resistance is already weak. If heatstroke leads to serious illness, God knows what the result will be.
Therefore, Zhou Xingyun sincerely hoped that the old woman would stop being impulsive and get up quickly to rest in a cool place. The rest of the problems could be left to these young people to deal with.
"I'm sorry." The old woman was very stubborn: "If the Wulin Alliance doesn't give us a clear explanation today and give us justice, the old woman will never leave even if she dies here!"
The old woman had a falling out with the martial arts alliance today. To be sure, she wanted to fight to the end with He Qinghai, Bai Banxie and others.
What the Wulin League did was really chilling to them.
"In that case..." Zhou Xingyun took a deep breath helplessly, and his next move instantly shocked everyone.
Zhou Xingyun slowly condescended and knelt in front of the old woman.
"What are you..." The old woman was stunned. She seemed to be shocked by Zhou Xingyun's actions.
"If I talk to you from a position of looking down, how can I be worthy of a group of heroes who sacrificed their lives for the right path?"
Zhou Xingyun knew what the old woman and the family members of the deceased needed most now.
They need the Wulin League to face up to their demands and tell the truth when facing problems. They need the Wulin League to treat the deceased well and take responsibility for the death of the deceased. They need respect!
What Zhou Xingyun said to the old woman at this time was exactly what the family members of the deceased were thinking about and looking forward to the Wulin Alliance's response.
Some problems are not complicated and can be easily resolved with just one sentence from the Wulin Alliance.
A group of family members of the deceased came to the Wulin League to call for punishment. It is nothing but the Wulin League’s actions that are chilling.
He Qinghai said that the family members of the deceased were making trouble unreasonably, and Zhou Xingyun asked, is it difficult to calm them down?
It's not difficult at all to calm them down by saying something without being arrogant or slanderous.
Don't hold a celebration banquet, admit the Wulin Alliance's decision-making mistakes, and tell the families of the deceased the truth.
As long as the Wulin Alliance does the above two things and sincerely mourns the deceased, even if the family members of the deceased come to the door to cry and curse, they will not end up in a life-and-death fight like today.
There is a saying that people live only for one breath. He Qinghai, Bai Banxie and others evaded responsibility and ignored the feelings of the deceased’s family by holding a celebration banquet. This is tantamount to spitting on the grave of the deceased. The family of the deceased can’t help but see this.
anger?
However, He Qinghai, Bai Banxie and others were secretly plotting to stage a painful plot that would deceive others.
There is a saying that if Zhou Xingyun had not stood up to uphold justice for the old woman today, the family members of the deceased would have been kicked out of the Wulin League hall. They would even be criticized and said to be deliberately doing it for the sake of pensions.
Making trouble at the Wulin Alliance banquet is just a greedy group of people.
No matter how you say it, the old woman and the family members of the deceased are the weak group in front of Bai Banxie and others. The voice of the weak side is often muffled by the strong side. Justice is in the hearts of the people, but it is just a reality.
Just good hopes.
Admittedly, Bai Banxie and others never expected that Zhou Xingyun, the dandy young alliance leader, would actually interfere in the banquet and help the old woman fight against the injustice.
After all, Bai Banxie and others never understood what kind of person Zhou Xingyun was from the beginning to the end, otherwise they would not have "unexpectedly".
What kind of person is Zhou Xingyun?
Until this moment! He Qinghai and the other southern warriors may have gradually realized what kind of person he is...
The moment Zhou Xingyun knelt down, everyone was shocked, especially He Qinghai, who knew who Zhou Xingyun was.
Although Zhou Xingyun's kneeling at this time was not kneeling to beg for help in the traditional sense, Zhou Xingyun was just kneeling in front of the old woman so that he could look at her on an equal footing.
But everyone should not forget that Zhou Xingyun is the prince of the north.
Zhou Xingyun is a being who does not need to kneel down when meeting the Holy Emperor in the Jinluan Hall.
He Qinghai, Bai Banxie, Sun Fangjin, Wu Kefei, Ping Yi and other southern warriors did not realize until today that although Zhou Xingyun is usually very arrogant and domineering, at this moment, as a prince, he is willing to condescend and fight with
Ordinary people knelt together.
The impact this had on them was extraordinary.
I would like to ask, in the whole world, is there any highly respected royal family member, or any powerful imperial minister who is willing to kneel down for the people of Li?
Before this there was no one, after this there is only this one!
King Zhennan can't do it, King Xijun can't do it, Princess Yongming can't do it, and even the current emperor can't do it. Only Zhou Xingyun can do what none of them can do...
Looking at Zhou Xingyun kneeling in front of the old woman, Wei Suyao, Qin Shou and others all seemed to realize why they followed Zhou Xingyun all over the country without any regrets.
He has neither the majesty of Han Qiumiao nor the great wisdom of Xu Zhiqian. However, even if he is a prince...he is still him. A silly boy with a kind heart, he seems to be everywhere, but he is unique and irreplaceable.
.
Perhaps, Zhou Xingyun is just like Han Qiumiao said, he lacks the majesty and consciousness of a leader, but...
At this moment, Zhou Xingyun reached a state that Han Qiumiao could not reach. He loved the world with benevolence and righteousness, moved people's hearts with his integrity, was willing to plead for the people, and shared hardships with the grassroots of the world. He was the king of kings, and truly possessed the integrity of a king.
When Han Qiumiao and Han Feng met, she always liked to complain that Zhou Xingyun was not rigorous enough and lacked the majesty of a leader, which caused her a lot of trouble.
Every time Han Feng heard her sister complain, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Han Qiumiao asked him what was so funny? Han Feng laughed and said nothing.
Only as the current emperor, he can better understand Zhou Xingyun's simple habits, sharing the world with the grassroots people instead of sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.
Of course, Zhou Xingyun did not realize that what he did was shocking. He just felt that it was more appropriate to do so. He could not let an old woman kneel on the ground and talk to him with her head held high.
This is a sin, he cannot bear it, and his life will be shortened...
However, the response caused by Zhou Xingyun's move was impressive.
Now you still dare to say that he is a dandy young leader? The white-bearded old man stared at Zhou Xingyun dumbfounded. He had never seen a young man with such magnanimity in his entire life.
When the warriors from the southern border participated in the martial arts competition, people in the martial arts circles said that Zhou Xingyun was a notorious Swordsman and Shu libertine, a clown who climbed on dragons and phoenixes, a dandy young alliance leader who was unworthy of his reputation, and a lustful and lewd slut.
Now that you are witnessing the scene in front of you, do you still dare to say the above words again?
The old woman brought a group of family members of the deceased to the Wulin Alliance celebration banquet before causing trouble. She had speculated on various outcomes. However, the old woman did not expect that the first one to stand up for them would
The person who respects them is neither the most famous righteous hero in the world nor the high-ranking elder of the Wulin League, but the young boy in front of him.
The old woman silently stared at Zhou Xingyun in front of her, and couldn't help but feel that such a young man was so simple and kind-hearted, and he was so calm and calm in doing things. This was no better than He Qinghai, Bai Banxie and others.
Do you want to be mature and steady? Zhou Xingyun has no youthful arrogance at all. This level of ability alone is better than all the martial arts warriors in the martial arts alliance who claim to be a righteous disciple.
"If he could be as sensible as he is now when he gets along with us, with this tolerance and tolerance, we would have fewer wrinkles on our faces." Wei Suyao really couldn't put it into words that Zhou Xingyun, who was very sensible in front of him, could only know how to deal with it on weekdays.
She was contacted by Zhou Xingyun who was teasing her.
"Do you have wrinkles?" the silly and cute Miss Feng Xue asked coldly. The key points she noticed were really unique.
"Not yet...I'm just describing it," Wei Suyao replied seriously. The atmosphere was a bit awkward. Fortunately, Zhou Xingyun was busy with other things and didn't hear their awkward chat, otherwise the bad boy would definitely gloat and ridicule her.
Having said that, perhaps Zhou Xingyun's sincerity and respect moved the old woman. After a moment of silence, she couldn't help but use her crutches to stand up.
Seeing this, Zhou Xingyun quickly stretched out his hands and helped the old man up. Then he winked at Wei Suyao and asked her to quickly bring a chair for the old woman to sit on.
Qin Shou and Xuanyuan Chongwu were also very knowledgeable. Qin Shou brought a cup of tea to the old woman who had been tossing under the cool sun for half an hour. Xuanyuan Chongwu stood firm and responded.
He stood behind the old woman and held out a paper fan to shade her, letting He Qinghai and others see clearly who had the upper hand now.
When things have developed to this point, He Qinghai, Bai Banxie and others are angry, but have nothing to say.
The people who came to the celebration banquet today, all the people who came to cheer, saw what happened in front of them and couldn't help but think about it. Even Zhou Xingyun and other juniors in the world knew how to respect the elderly and the dead. On the other hand, the Wulin League and others
, but insisting on holding a celebration banquet today is really unpopular.
After careful consideration, many people realized that there was no need for the Wulin Alliance to hold a celebration banquet at this time.
Can't Bai Banxie and others first appease the family members of the deceased? Furthermore, the Wulin Alliance seems to have concealed something. Otherwise, how could the Yuan Zongmen and more than a hundred warriors (the white-bearded old man and others) have rushed to the scene?
Come to Xingshi to investigate?
Finally, and the most worthy of everyone's careful consideration, Zhou Xingyun asked He Qinghai, Bai Banxie and others questions, but they have not given positive answers so far.
The Wulin League has won a great victory in the crusade against the evil sect, so the Wulin League is going to hold a celebration banquet. So... what is the actual achievement of the Wulin League in defeating the evil sect? If it is just to rescue the hostages, it cannot be counted as a crusade against the evil sect.
If the Wulin Alliance had no actual achievements in defeating evil warriors, why would they hold a celebration banquet? What is hidden behind this?
