Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1191 Yan Dan’s Choice
  While Tian Ming was stunned, Master Ban and other five commanders bowed to him and bowed their hands in salute.

Only Big Iron Hammer had an angry and dissatisfied look on his face and was unwilling to bend down to salute. However, under the looks of Gao Jianli and Daozhi, he still reluctantly made a gesture.

As stunned as Tian Ming, there were also a large number of Mohist disciples around. They couldn't understand what happened, so much so that their leader had to collectively salute a young boy.

Shao Yu hid aside and looked at this scene, his eyes half shocked and half thinking.

Although he could not draw a clear conclusion yet, this strange scene clearly meant that the Mo family was likely to undergo some kind of drastic change.

Not far away, Fan Zeng, a disciple of the Xiang clan and a master of military art, was talking with Zhang Liang, who had followed Yan Dan to Guancheng. At this time, he heard the movement here and turned his eyes over. He happened to witness the scene of the five commanders saluting. .

Fan Zeng's right hand unconsciously stroked his beard, and a trace of understanding and admiration flashed in his eyes.

With his wisdom, he would naturally not have vague thoughts like Shao Yu, but directly come to a definite conclusion - Tian Ming is probably going to become a big shot in the Moh family.

Fan Zeng already knew about Yan Dan's situation, and he understood that the most important thing for the Mo family now was to determine the next leader as soon as possible.

It happened that at this juncture, after an internal meeting among the top leaders of the Mohist family, Tianming received a solemn gift from the five leaders of the Mohist family, and the meaning was self-evident.

Fan Zeng knew why Yan Dan chose Tianming, an immature young man, to take over the position of giant.

Although this choice seems absurd and simply nonsense, there are actually other benefits behind it.

First of all, Tianming has implicated Sword Master Gai Nie, the best swordsman in the world, which can solve an urgent need for the Moh family, which has suffered heavy losses, especially the loss of Yan Dan, a top master.

Secondly, in Fan Zeng's opinion, although the leaders of the Mo family have their own characteristics, none of them is outstanding enough to convince everyone and take on a major role, let alone in the terrible situation of the Mo family. middle.

Yan Dan had no choice at all.

Only Tianming, a young boy, is more suitable.

It is impossible for him to convince the public, and he has no ability to lead the Mohist family. He can only be a decoration.

However, as long as he has this arrangement to occupy the most important position, many other commanders can still work together to manage the Mohist family as before, without having to worry about one party having too much power and making mistakes.

This is not a power play, just a helplessness.

Today, what the Mohist family needs most is a strong leader with courage and ability, but there is no problem!
  Then we can only settle for the next best thing and choose the safest path. Although...it's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse, but Yan Dan really has no choice.

However, it should be said that even if it was unreasonable to choose Tianming to succeed the Mohist giant, Fan Zeng still couldn't help but marvel at Yan Dan's boldness and courage. He was indeed the crown prince Dan of Yan who had planned the assassination of Qin.

Beside Fan Zeng, Zhang Liang's eyes darkened slightly, with a slight smile on his lips.

Unlike Fan Zeng, who didn't know much about Tianming, Zhang Liang knew all the details of Tianming's life experience, and naturally he had a better understanding of Yan Dan's purpose in making this choice.

In addition to the two points that Fan Zeng thought of, there is also the identity of Tianming Jingke's son.

The Mohist family feels guilty and guilty about Jingke, and it is fitting that he should compensate his surviving son. Moreover, when Tianming grows up, this identity will make it easier for him to be accepted by the Mohist disciples and become a true new giant of the Mohist family.

Setting up a decoration to maintain a fragile balance can only be temporary and will not last forever. Sooner or later, the power will have to be returned.

In addition, Zhang Liang also suspected that Yan Dan might have plans to use Tianming's special life experience to ease the relationship with Liusha... or Gu Xun.

Of course, whether this plan can work depends on Gu Xun's intention.     But this is not important... to Zhang Liang.

What he hopes to see is that Tianming becomes a giant.

Having a child in a powerful position can certainly bring stability to the Mo family after suffering a trauma, but an ambitious young man with an immature mind can easily be influenced by the outside world, especially... the few mentors around him are not very good. Under reliable circumstances.

The gentle smile on Zhang Liang's lips remained unchanged, and he watched silently as Tian Ming cried and cried as he was carried away by the big hammer and thieves' feet.

………………

Under the remaining light of the setting sun, the Mohist disciples who suffered heavy injuries began to evacuate the government city.

Although the mountains and forests are the most suitable for concealment, the actions of many Mohist disciples cannot be hidden from Han Xin and Zhong Limei, who are closely watching the city.

After receiving Gu Xun's reminder, although the two of them didn't know the reason, they obviously didn't have the courage to disobey the imperial master. They gave up all their previous elaborate arrangements and only gathered thousands of soldiers, planning to kill them casually when the time came. Just let the court give an explanation.

Looking at these Mohist disciples scattered in the mountains and forests, Han Xin's dark face wrinkled up inexplicably.

The fair-faced Zhongli smiled and asked, "What's the matter, you have to stop when things are about to happen, and you feel a little itchy?"

Zhong Limei was loyal to the empire, but he was not cruel and bloodthirsty, and he didn't care much about merit. Although he looked down upon the Mo family, he didn't want to exclude them.

Although I felt a little regretful at this time, I was still more confused and my mentality was quite relaxed.

Han Xin shook his head mechanically, his expression not softening much due to his friend's joke, and he said slowly in a deep voice, "I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little frightened."

"Feeling?" Zhong Limei raised his eyebrows slightly under his helmet, with a look of surprise on his face, "Do you still have this kind of talent? Why haven't I heard you mention it?"

Han Xin responded without any fluctuations in his tone, "Because no."

"I've never felt this way before. It's very strange... Anyway, there must be danger!"

Zhong Limei narrowed his eyes slightly, looked around, and frowned:

"When you say that, I really have a strange feeling, and I feel a little depressed for no apparent reason?"

"You said..." Zhong Limei glanced sideways at his friend and guessed, "Could the order of the National Preceptor be related to this?"

Han Xin lowered his eyes and looked at the machine city, and after a while he replied, "Maybe... we'll find out naturally when we wait and see."

………………

On the top of another mountain, the Moon God stood on the edge of the cliff, letting the mountain wind blow her dress, holding the reluctant Qiantaki, and her eyes behind the gauze were staring in the direction of the city.

Although she didn't want to talk to her aunt for the time being, Chitaki, who was bored and curious, finally asked:
  "Are we stopping here to wait for my dad?"

Luna turned her head slightly, glanced down at Chitaki, and did not answer. She just said lightly, "Don't you like the excitement? If you look carefully, it is a rare big scene."

"Huh?" Chitaki tilted his head, confused.
