Chapter 413 Throwing stones to ask for directions, retreating to advance

The hall, which was once extremely lively just now, fell into a brief dead silence because of Yao Zhongmin's words.All the people present didn't know what to say for a while, trying to digest the information in Yao Zhongmin's words.

If the remaining eight families work together to investigate the extermination of the four families including the Zi family, no matter whether they contribute people or effort, they will not complain at all. It is impossible to shirk responsibility and be alone, and if any bad results are caused by shirking responsibility, it is not something they can afford.

However, they have to think carefully about forming an offensive and defensive alliance, and merging their families into the alliance, changing their appearance, and unified management.

Moreover, the most important thing is that the Yao family has always been very close to the Guo family, and there is a faint meaning that they follow the Guo family's leadership. They usually do not care for the Guo family. They don't know whether it is Yao Zhongmin's own intention or Old Guo meant it.

If it was just Yao Zhongmin's intention, if they disagreed, they could directly deny it, or just as Yao Zhongmin himself said, just ignore him when he farted.But if Yao Zhongmin was just a messenger, saying this on behalf of Mr. Guo, then if one is not good, it will offend the Guo family.

Some of them secretly looked at Guo Lao's face, wanting to see Guo Lao's attitude towards this matter, but unfortunately Guo Lao's expression remained unchanged, and no one could tell what he was thinking in his heart.

After being silent for a while, someone finally couldn't help asking: "Old Guo, what do you think of Patriarch Yao's words?"

The person who spoke was Xu Zhiping, the head of the Xu family. He felt extremely uncomfortable with Yao Zhongmin's words. Moreover, he didn't like Yao Zhongmin's way of dealing with people, so he asked at this time.

"Yes, Mr. Guo, you are an elder. This matter is no small matter. Whether you can do it or not, you have to make a statement." Lin Xiaozhi said, looking like an honest man. The tone is very sincere.

When the other people heard the words, their eyes fell on Mr. Guo, waiting for Mr. Guo's answer.

Mr. Guo put down the teacup in his hand, glanced around the crowd with slightly muddy eyes, and then said slowly: "I object."

I object?

The three words neither light nor heavy fell on everyone's ears, but they had completely different meanings. Some people were surprised, some were puzzled, and some were slightly relieved.

They were worried that Mr. Guo would follow Yao Zhongmin's words, but now hearing what Mr. Guo said, it seemed that Yao Zhongmin's words were entirely his own, rather than speaking for the Guo family.

Yao Zhongmin looked anxious, and said anxiously: "Mr. Guo, I personally think this suggestion is very good. The strength of our single family is still too weak. I think no one is sure that I can deal with the behind-the-scenes guy alone." The missing black hand, the current situation is extremely critical. If there is no alliance, it is very likely that the opponent will be defeated one by one. Once an alliance is formed, a powerful force will be formed, and the crisis will naturally be resolved. I don't understand why you object. Even if I respect your old status, you have to give me an explanation."

Yao Zhongmin jumped up and down in a hurry, scratched his cheeks and scratched his ears, his nose was flushed in a hurry, like a monkey whose tail was stepped on.

Mr. Guo shook his head, and said seriously: "I objected, not because your suggestion is not good, but because the feasibility is not very high. Furthermore, if, as you said, eight families get together Who will be the leader of the offensive and defensive alliance? You, although you are out of good intentions and don't want to ruin the hundreds of years of my twelve family's foundation, but you are still too young, and you haven't considered things thoroughly enough. .”

Yao Zhongmin smiled wryly: "Old Guo, regardless of prestige or seniority, you will naturally be the leader of the alliance. What's there to think about?"

"Me? No, I'm old. How can I take on this great responsibility? It's more appropriate to leave it to you young people. It can be regarded as adding burdens to you young people." Guo Lao waved his hand and said.

"Since Mr. Guo said so, then do you think who is more suitable to be the leader?" Yao Zhongmin looked at the people present and asked.

Everyone's hearts tightened suddenly. It was obvious that Mr. Guo had rejected Yao Zhongmin's proposal before, but after such a detour, it was as if Yao Zhongmin had detoured him in.This made them all have different thoughts and complex expressions.

But hearing Mr. Guo's voice suddenly raised a bit, he slapped his thigh and laughed loudly: "Patriarch Yao, you really have you, and almost got me, an old man, into it. I didn't promise you to form an offensive and defensive alliance." If not, there is nothing to do with this alliance, so what alliance leader should we choose?"

Then Mr. Guo waved his hand again and said: "If you have any other ideas, just say them out, don't hide them, just like Patriarch Yao, don't be afraid of making mistakes, just be afraid that you have some ideas but don't say them, then don't alright."

After saying this, Guo Laoruo glanced at Zhong Quan indistinctly, seeing the corner of Guo Lao's eyes, how could Zhong Quan not know that he was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, but he just snorted softly and said nothing. explain.

"Old Guo, I think Patriarch Yao's words are fine." Jiang Zhu, Patriarch of the Jiang Family, said leisurely.

"Patriarch Jiang, what do you mean?" Mr. Guo asked with a snort.

Jiang Zhu said: "My twelve cultivating families usually boast that they are united in spirit, advancing together and retreating together, sharing honor and disgrace, but this time the matter of the four major families including the Zi family is undoubtedly slapped with iron-like facts. I slapped us in the face, as a member of the Twelve Families, I feel heartache and humiliation, I believe you, you must feel the same as me, and feel the same way."

"I don't need to say much about this." Mr. Guo nodded.

Jiang Zhu continued to speak, he looked a little excited, and said loudly: "As you said, Mr. Guo, my twelve families are united on the surface, but in fact they are just a mess of scattered sand. It's okay, but when it comes to the critical moment, a fatal shortcoming is exposed. If we continue to fight on our own, I think it will not be long before the fate of the Zi family and other families will be our fate. No, what doubts do you have about this question?"

Xu Zhiping coughed, raised his head and said, "Patriarch Jiang, isn't that a little too serious?"

"Yeah, even though I'm in some trouble now, I shouldn't have messed up my position like this." Wei Ting said with some dissatisfaction.

"Is it serious?" Jiang Zhu sneered, and said, "Before the Zi family and other four major families had accidents, who would have thought that such a thing would happen? What I am saying now is just a rainy day. Of course, if there are any of you If anyone thinks I'm wrong, then I have nothing to say."

"It's not that you said something wrong, but...but..." Wei Ting sighed softly, he hesitated for a while, but couldn't say it.

"Let's discuss the matter as it stands. There is no need to quarrel, let alone blame each other, except for normal discussions, of course." Mr. Guo said in a timely manner.

"I'm sorry, I was too excited, but I'm also thinking about the future of the twelve families, and I hope Mr. Guo won't blame me." Jiang Zhu clasped his fists and said.

"Patriarch Jiang, what are you talking about? Everything we do now is for the consideration of the twelve families. Even if we are unable to forge ahead with the foundation left by our ancestors, we must guard it carefully. How can we blame it? What about you?" Boss Guo raised his face and said.

After a pause, Mr. Guo said again: "Patriarch Jiang's words are reasonable. Of course, Patriarch Xu and Patriarch Wei's words are not wrong. Now that the enemy's identity is unknown, we can't mess up our own positions, lest the other party take advantage of it. But you must know that just saying this is not enough, you must be prepared, and don't give the other party a chance to attack."

"Mr. Guo is dedicated to planning the future of my twelve families. It is admirable. I, Lin Xiaozhi, am not talented, but I am not the kind of rigid and pedantic person. I also think that the suggestion made by Patriarch Yao is feasible. At the same time, I even suggest the establishment of an alliance. At that time, Mr. Guo, you will be the leader of the alliance." Lin Xiaozhi stood up suddenly, and said to Mr. Guo with his fists cupped.

"Patriarch Lin, I have expressed my attitude just now. You are embarrassing me." Elder Guo said helplessly.

"Mr. Guo, I know this makes you embarrassed, but you are the only one who can do extraordinary things at an extraordinary time. Please, Mr. Guo, don't refuse." Lin Xiaozhi said solemnly, word by word, sincerely. Incomparable, resounding.

Mr. Guo smiled wryly, pointed at Lin Xiaozhi with a finger, and said, "Patriarch Lin, you are setting me up on the fire. It is my job to do something for the Twelve Families. For me, I shouldn't refuse, but I have to convince everyone. I, an old man, don't have that much convincing power."

Yao Zhongmin said at this time: "Old Guo, you are being polite. If you think that you are not good enough, to put it bluntly, I really can't think of anyone else who can do it. How about you? Anyway, everyone today Now that you’re all here, let’s go through a process, everyone votes with a show of hands, those who agree to form an offensive and defensive alliance raise their hands, those who disagree, then forget it, this way, it can be regarded as fair and democratic.”

"This—" Mr. Guo hesitated.

"Patriarch Yao is right, let's do this, and I, Lin Xiaozhi, will be the first to raise my hand in favor." Lin Xiaozhi raised his right hand high as he spoke.

"Count me in." Yao Zhongmin raised his hand.

"I agree too." Jiang Zhu raised his hand.

Shui Baimei, Xu Zhiping, and Wei Ting all frowned secretly. Naturally, they were not willing to form an offensive and defensive alliance, but the current situation seemed a bit complicated, because three people had already raised their hands in favor, including Mr. Guo. One, or four, whether they raise their hands or not, today's matter may not depend on their will.

But at this moment, Zhong Quan sneered: "Old Mr. Guo is really a good planner, just pretend I didn't come today, Zhong has some things to deal with, so I'm leaving."
