At the beginning, I picked up a big guy to be a master

After leaving the Marshal's Mansion, Zhou Zhiruo led the Emei people straight to the outside of Haozhou City. After a whole day of driving, the group finally arrived at the next town.

Zhou Zhiruo didn't say a word these two days, when all the disciples found an inn to stay in the town, Zhou Zhiruo stayed behind closed doors and didn't let anyone bother her.

The disciples of Emei were very worried, but none of them dared to disobey Zhou Zhiruo's order to persuade them.

Just like that, Zhou Zhiruo locked herself in the inn for three days without eating or drinking and seeing no one.

Three days later, Zhou Zhiruo finally opened the door.

All the Emei disciples stood guard outside the door, and when they saw the door opened, they stepped forward one after another, but they were all stunned when they saw Zhou Zhiruo.The stunning beauty who was originally pure-looking has become even more radiant, bright and moving, even the Nine Heavens Fairy seems to be less beautiful than her when she comes down to earth.

"Master." Jingxuan was the first to react and led the crowd to salute.

Zhou Zhiruo raised her hand slightly, her eyes were faint, but they looked like cold stars, with a breathtaking sense of coldness.She opened her red lips lightly, and said to everyone: "Senior sisters, the Yitian Sword and Dragon Slaying Saber is originally my Emei's possession, and it has been wandering outside before, and now it is time to welcome it back to Emei."

The Yitian Sword is the treasure of the Emei Sect's Town Sect. This is something that all Emei disciples know, but the Yitian Sword was taken away by Zhao Min before, and now it is even missing. The Dragon Slaying Saber is owned by Xie Xun, so how could it be a thing of the Emei Sect? ?
The disciples of Emei were a little puzzled, but since the master said so, there must be a reason, so someone asked: "Does the master know where the Yitian Sword and Dragon Slaying Saber are?"

Zhou Zhiruo nodded, and asked Jingxuan to come over and tell her the secret of the place where the sword was hidden.

"You all set off with Senior Sister Jingxuan today, and you must bring the sword back to Emei."

There were eight Emei disciples who came to watch the ceremony this time. Zhou Zhiruo asked these eight people to go to Spirit Snake Island to retrieve the sword, which made Jingxuan and others a little worried.

Jingxuan said: "Master, will you be in danger if you are alone?"

Zhou Zhiruo raised her eyes to look at Jingxuan, and said coldly, "Who in the world can harm me? But you must be careful not to let the wind leak."

The breath-taking breath rushed over, Jingxuan and the others trembled, and quickly said yes, then packed their luggage and set off immediately.

But Zhou Zhiruo bought a horse and returned to Emei by herself.

Leaving aside all the troubles after returning to the Emei School, Zhou Zhiruo spent a lot of energy cleaning up Ding Minjun and rectifying things in the school. There was no harm, everyone in the Emei faction worshiped Zhou Zhiruo.

However, although the martial arts of Emei disciples are not bad in Jianghu, there are very few outstanding disciples in the sect. Even though Zhou Zhiruo taught martial arts, the disciples in the sect made rapid progress, but everyone's aptitude and age, martial arts practiced to a certain level It can't go any higher, so although the overall strength of the Emei Sect has improved, long-term inheritance is still a problem.

In order to solve this dilemma, Zhou Zhiruo ordered Bei Jinyi and others to go down the mountain to recruit some orphans who had no father or mother, and persuade them to go up to the mountain to learn art, but they cannot be forced.

Bei Jinyi and others set off immediately after receiving the task. In less than a month, there were more than 30 young disciples on Mount Emei. The youngest of these disciples was three years old, and the oldest was only ten years old. They were all orphans who were displaced during the war. , can have a place to live, can have martial arts to learn, everyone is very happy.

Zhou Zhiruo met these children one by one, and found that some of these children were naturally talented, and felt very satisfied.

The disciple Zhou Zhiruo who had just entered the school was not in a hurry to let them learn martial arts, but ordered everyone in Emei to take care of their bodies. Among the children who survived the war, which one is not yellow, thin and dirty?
When these children have almost recovered physically, they are arranged to do some things within their ability.

Zhou Zhiruo found that although some of these children had mediocre aptitudes, they were serious and hardworking.

Diligence can make up for one's weakness, even if one's aptitude is not as good as others', as long as one is willing to put in several times more effort than others, one can gain something.

She asked Bei Jinyi to only teach them swordsmanship and moves, not internal strength.

She planned to let these disciples practice the internal strength of the Nine Yin Manual. The original disciples of the Emei Sect practiced the crash version of the Nine Yin Manual that she improved, and the power of learning it step by step is not the same.

She personally selected a few older ones, and personally taught them the first three levels of internal energy in the Nine Yin Manual. After a few years, they succeeded, and then learned the rest, and at the same time taught some younger ones.

She planned and did so.

Every morning, she teaches the new disciples, and in the afternoon, she teaches Ding Minjun, Bei Jinyi and others about martial arts, and she doesn't ask about anything else.

Jingxuan, Su Mengqing and the others also successfully brought back the Yitian Sword and Dragon Saber from Spirit Snake Island.

The Dragon Slaying Saber was forged by Guo Jing and his wife with Yang Guo’s black iron epee and Western fine gold, and the Yitian Sword was forged from two of the sharpest swords at that time, the Lady Sword and the Gentleman Sword. Now that the sword is broken, Zhou Zhiruo decided to melt it He took out the sword and recast it into a Yitian sword and a pair of male and female double swords.

For this reason, she decided to go to the swordsmith herself.

Zhou Zhiruo ordered Jingxuan to take over the affairs of the faction temporarily, and told all the disciples to practice martial arts diligently and not to relax, and not to go down the mountain without reason, and if something happened, they could send pigeons to her.Everyone got an order to send the head down the mountain.

Zhou Zhiruo simply packed her luggage, carried a broken knife and sword, and left Emei on a horse.

During this period of time, the rivers and lakes were rare and calm, and the court seemed to do nothing, and the rebels from all walks of life also temporarily stopped their actions to recuperate.

The people of the Ming Cult searched for Zhang Wuji to no avail, the dragons had no leader, and there was a moment of chaos. Fortunately, Yang Xiao was in charge of the overall situation, but Yang Xiao was not Zhang Wuji after all, and he couldn't do what the people wanted, so some people were still eager to move.

On this day, Yang Xiao summoned Fan Yao, Eagle King, Bat King and five scattered people to discuss matters in the conference hall.

Yang Xiao stood in the center of the conference hall, and said to everyone: "Everyone, now the leader is following Zhao Min to escape marriage, there is a lot of discussion in the church, and there are quite a few criticisms in the world. Please tell me why you are here."

Yin Tianzheng sighed, and said anxiously: "The leader is really confused about this matter. Now that Emei is closed, the people we sent can't even see the head of Zhou."

Thinking of the fact that the people of the Ming Cult had received a lot of rejection in Emei, they couldn't help feeling a little downcast.

Fan Yao said: "I don't think this relationship will work out, let's find another way as soon as possible."

Wei Yi smiled and said: "These days Yang Zuoshi has worked hard, but the symptoms are not cured. Unless the leader comes back to preside over the overall situation, there is no other way."

Yang Xiao said: "I'm afraid that even if the sect master comes back, it won't be able to solve it."

Everyone suddenly shut up. They all understood these reasons. Getting involved with the princess of the imperial court and abandoning marriage to the head of Emei has affected the prestige of the leader, unless the leader and Zhao Minen broke up and reconciled with the head of Zhou.

But even if the leader is willing, the head of Zhou probably won't.

Zhou Dian couldn't help sighing: "In the past, the leader of the leader was what the people wanted, and everyone in the leader was convinced, but now..."

Everyone was silent, Wei Yixiao suddenly said: "Hey, what do you think of Jiang Xiaoyu and Jiang Shaoxia?"

"Jiang Shaoxia?" Yin Tianzheng didn't know why Yang Xiao suddenly mentioned Jiang Xiaoyu, but he was very grateful and admired Jiang Xiaoyu in his heart, so he said, "Jiang Shaoxia is extremely smart, martial arts and martial arts, and he is even more chivalrous. Although he is young, But he is definitely an admirable hero."

"Eagle King is right." Fan Yao said, "Jiang Shaoxia looks naughty, but he has a kind heart, and righteousness comes first."

"It seems that everyone has a high opinion of Jiang Shaoxia." Wei Yi said with a smile, "If Jiang Shaoxia is allowed to join Mingjiao as a Dharma king, what do you think?"

Apologist?

"Bat King, what's your plan?" Monk Peng said.

Wei Yi smiled and said: "Jiang Shaoxia is excellent in terms of martial arts and character. Besides, he was kind to my Mingjiao when he was in Guangmingding, and everyone in Mingjiao was grateful to him. After that, he rescued many rebel generals. , and helped the rebels win battles, and his status in the hearts of the rebels is not low, if he joins the Ming Cult, it should be of some use, right?"

Yang Xiao shook his head, and said: "Jiang Shaoxia is indeed a good candidate, but unfortunately, with Jiang Shaoxia's temper, he is absolutely unwilling to be controlled by others. He would rather be free and unrestricted."

Yang Xiao's words shattered everyone's hopes just now.

They had forgotten Jiang Shaoxia's temper. He would never be someone else's younger brother. Although the Protector of the Dharma is noble, he is probably no different from a high-ranking younger brother in Jiang Shaoxia's eyes.

Zhou Dian was a little irritable, and said: "This is not okay, that is not okay, what should I do?"

Monk Peng said: "It's really impossible, and we have to ask. We Wusan people kneel down and beg for him. He must soften his heart."

Yang Xiao said: "We still need to make more plans now. The Emei faction still has to send people to negotiate peace. It's just that the number of people we sent before wasn't enough, so we have to find another person with weight."

"I'll go!" Eagle King volunteered, "I am Wuji's grandfather, and also the protector of the teachings. No one is more suitable than me."

Everyone nodded, the status of Eagle King is enough.

"The leader still needs to send someone to look for it, and Jiang Shaoxia can also try it."

Zhou Dian said: "Jiang Shaoxia is the only one of us Wusan people to go to. Yang Zuoshi, you and Fan Youshi are still in charge of educational affairs. Things are busy. We Wusan people have nothing to do. We have a lot of time to grind him."

Monk Peng and others also agreed, so Yang Xiao entrusted this task to the five scattered people, while Wei Bowang went around to inquire about the leader. He and Fan Yao had to stay at the marshal's mansion to watch the congregation and the rebels.

With the direction, everyone is full of energy, those who are looking for someone are looking for someone, those who apologize for their crimes apologize, and those who beg for help are even more exhausted.

After the wedding, Xiao Yu'er locked himself in Zhou Zhiruo's room, not allowing anyone to come near him. He stayed inside for several days, but no one saw him come out. Later, someone was afraid that Xiao Yu'er would faint from hunger in the room. He broke into the door and found him sitting at the table, and walked out with a calm expression.

Later, Xiao Yu'er often disappeared and didn't know what he was doing.

The Wusan people were afraid that they would not find Xiao Yuer's person, so they took turns guarding outside Xiao Yuer's or Zhou Zhiruo's room. After five days of squatting like this, they finally blocked people in the middle of the night.

At that time, Xiao Yu'er had just come back from the outside and was about to go back to his room to rest, when Monk Budai told him that he and Leng Qian were dragged into Monk Peng's room.

They were sugar-coated shells at first, coaxing Xiao Yu'er to join Mingjiao as Dharma King, but Xiao Yu'er refused, and they began to threaten and lure again. Xiao Yu'er rolled her eyes and covered her ears in agitation. Nao San hanged himself, Xiao Yu'er was so annoyed that he found an excuse to slip away.

But the Wusan people didn't give up, and kept squatting like the same pattern, and finally let them block Xiao Yu'er again, Xiao Yu'er was miserable, listening to them howling ghosts and wolves in her ears was more uncomfortable than killing her.

"It's not impossible for you to ask me to join the Ming Cult." Xiao Yu'er finally couldn't hold it back, and the Wusan people were overjoyed and nodded hastily.

Xiao Yu'er smiled and said: "Okay, but if I want to do it, I must be number one. Unless you are your leader, I won't talk about it."

"What?" Zhou Dian was shocked, "But how could the leader give way?"

Xiao Yu'er spread out his hands, pretending to be helpless and said: "That's impossible." After speaking, Xiao Yu'er packed up the five of them and sent them away, lying comfortably on the bed and having a good sleep.

Wu Sanren knew that this was Xiao Yu'er's intentional embarrassment, he didn't want to join Mingjiao at all, but he still told Yang Xiao and Fan Yao about it, Yang Xiao and Fan Yao couldn't understand, so he sighed for a while.

"If you want me to say, why not give him the position of leader?" Zhou Dian stood up suddenly and said.

Everyone looked at him together.

"Just...give a deputy leader!" Zhou Dian said, "Anyway, the leader is not here, and the deputy leader is the biggest."

Yang Xiao said: "Actually, it's not impossible, it's just..."

"It's just that the matter of the deputy leader is very important, so we must know the leader." Fan Yao continued.

Monk Peng said: "The problem is that the leader cannot be found."

Yang Xiao said: "It seems that we can only place our hopes on Wei Bat King."

Everyone was thinking of Wei Yixiao, and Wei Yixiao lived up to everyone's expectations, successfully found Zhang Wuji, but Zhao Min was seriously injured and he had to take care of him, and only Zhao Min knew about Xie Xun, they planned to go alone, so as not to startle the snake, so they did not come back .

But fortunately, he has already got in touch with Zhang Wuji. Yang Xiao told Wei Yixiao about everyone's decision to elect Jiang Xiaoyu as the deputy leader, and asked Wei Yixiao to ask Zhang Wuji's opinion. If the leader approves, they can do it.

Wei Yixiao was silent for a while when he heard the news, although doing so was good for Mingjiao, would the leader think that they were killing donkeys?
Yang Xiao said: "The leader is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and has a heart like a valley. As long as we state the whole story, the leader will definitely understand."

After Yang Xiao said that, Wei Yixiao didn't say anything more, so Yang Xiao wrote a confidential letter, asking Wei Yixiao to send it to Chen Ming for the pros and cons of electing Jiang Xiaoyu as the deputy leader.

A few days later, Wei Yixiao returned to the Marshal's Mansion with a reply.

Wei Yi smiled and said: "The leader was a little surprised at first, but after reading Yang Zuoshi's letter, he agreed very much. He said that he was always worried that his departure would affect the Mingjiao and the Rebel Army. Now that there is a way to remedy it, why not do it? So Let Yang Zuo envoy rest assured to do it, and he also wrote a letter of appointment as proof."

Everyone was relieved when they heard it, and asked where the leader was and how he was doing.

Wei Yixiao answered one by one, and then said: "I think the leader still can't let go of the head of Zhou, Zhao Min's serious injury made the leader feel guilty and compassionate, but that's all. The leader always asks me about Miss Zhou. When Miss Zhou returned to Emei, she didn't see any outsiders and looked sad, I think the two of them might have room to maneuver."

"This statement is wrong." Yang Xiao said, "The relationship between a man and a woman is not decided by one person. Even if the leader wants to continue his relationship with Sect Leader Zhou, then Sect Leader Zhou will not agree. If he insists, he may hurt others. already."

Everyone fell silent after hearing this.
