Chronicles of Celestial Origins

As the sun set in the west, in front of the detention hall, a large group of escaping lights shot down, and dozens of people entered the inner room menacingly.

Inside, two men were sitting cross-legged on the ground with their eyes closed and practicing. When they noticed that everyone was entering, they opened their eyes and quickly stood up to greet them: "Fellow Taoists, this is the legion detention hall. I wonder what you are waiting for?"

"I know this is a detention room. Where are the three fellow Taoists Yan Yu, Lu Ziliang, and Su Quan? Are they being detained here?"

"What right do you have to arrest people?"

"We are here to seek justice. What crimes have the three fellow Taoists Yan Yu, Lu Ziliang, and Su Quan committed? You must detain and convict them."

"Call the person in charge of the direct column to come out. We want to see him."

"Aren't you going to arrest people? We are all here today. I won't bother you to make a trip and arrest us all if you can."

"People went to the cave to ask for help, and he ordered people to be arrested. Does Qu Wenyuan belong to the Alliance Army alone? He can arrest anyone he wants? Are there any laws? We have to go to the top of the Alliance Army to accuse him."

The crowd was furious and spoke one word after another.

…

In front of the majestic and majestic cave, a ray of light shot down, and a tall middle-aged man turned his hand over and handed a talisman inside.

Not long after, the woman with bright eyes and white teeth slowly came out and invited him inside, and the two of them came to a room.

"Greetings, Uncle Master." The man bowed to Qu Wenyuan and saluted.

"What's up?"

"Just now, a large number of monks from the Fourth Regiment of the Seventh Column came to the detention hall, demanding the release of Yan Yu, Lu Ziliang, and Su Quan who were arrested today. The disciples sent people to drive them away. Instead of leaving, they moved the detention hall surrounded and kept shouting curses.”

"Presumptuous." Qu Wenyuan shouted in a low voice: "Catch them all."

"Yes." The man raised his head and glanced at him: "Uncle Master, I just went to ask Master Zhang for instructions. He asked the disciple not to act rashly and asked him to report to you in person."

Hearing this, Qu Wenyuan frowned and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I understand, you go first!"

"Yes, over there in the detention room..."

"Wait for my order."

"Yes." The man responded and retreated.

The woman sent him out of the cave and returned to her room. Fang sat down cross-legged. The stone door was pushed open, and a fair-faced man came in. He took out a yellowed book and handed it to her: "Sister, This is the second volume of the Xuan Zhuan Jiu Jade Technique that you wanted. I stole it without telling my uncle. You should make a rubbing quickly. I will return it later. If my uncle finds out, I will be punished. "

"Okay." The woman took the book with a slightly happy expression on her face and began to read through it.

"Sister, I just passed by my uncle's house and heard him talking to Xue Yun, a member of the direct column. I'm a little confused about something."

"What's the matter?" the woman asked without looking up while flipping through the book.

"Originally, my uncle had already announced that he would arrest the troublemakers. Why did Xue Yun ask Zhang Zhang for instructions and tell him not to act rashly. Just to give up the idea of ​​arresting my uncle, Zhang Zhang is just the deputy captain of the army. Is his opinion that important? I feel like uncle She seems to be very afraid of him, even this little thing is hampered by him, why is that? "

"You will naturally know these things when you go to the team below to experience it."

"I'm just curious. As the commander of the legion, why does my uncle seem to be hesitant and hesitant when faced with the troubles caused by a few Nascent Soul monks? Sister, tell me!"

The woman raised her head and glanced at him: "Can't you even analyze this? Zhang Zhang obviously has no good intentions."

"Why?"

"You think about it, Zhang Zhang is the deputy commander of the legion and is responsible for the specific affairs of the legion. He should have been the one to handle this matter, but he asked the direct column to skip the level and ask his uncle directly for instructions. With his ability, can't he deal with a few Nascent Soul monks? He Why don't you show up?"

The man thought for a while and said, "He doesn't want to get involved in this matter."

"Yes, those people were arrested under the direct order of my uncle and had nothing to do with him. Therefore, he did not want to come forward because he wanted to keep aloof from the matter. If the matter really got serious and got to the top of the coalition forces, he could use this to complain to the top of the coalition forces. My uncle made trouble. He wished that he would order everyone to be arrested and make the matter as big as possible."

"That's it." The man suddenly realized.

………

In the legion meeting hall, several high-level officials who stayed behind gathered together. About a quarter of an hour later, Qu Wenyuan came in from the outside, went to the main seat and sat down, and said slowly: "Today I received a report from the column directly under me. There are some people in the headquarters. The monks entangled themselves with their cronies, deceived the public with monstrous words, and disturbed the morale of the army. They first gathered to surround the legion meeting hall, and then made a big fuss in the detention room. Now dozens of people are still blocking the detention room. "

"Junior Brother Zhang, you are the deputy captain of the legion and are in charge of specific affairs. Please tell me! What should we do?"

Chapter coughed slightly and said: "Then let me tell you the cause and effect of this matter first! The monks of the Fourth Regiment, Seventh Regiment, and Eighth Regiment of the Seventh Column who returned from the front line of Xuanying Pavilion For failing to complete the assigned garrison tasks, the legion decided to punish them and demote all monks above the captain level by one level."

"Today I received a report from the column directly under me. The column detained three monks from the Fourth Regiment, which caused dissatisfaction among everyone in the Fourth Regiment. They gathered together in the detention hall to argue and demand the release of the three detained people. Due to the seriousness of the matter, they may be released. I don't dare to make decisions without authorization if it causes extremely serious consequences, so I asked the direct team to report directly to Senior Brother Qu."

Qu Wenyuan glanced at him: "Junior brother Zhang, you should tell us how to deal with it now! We can't let those monks continue to make trouble like this and think of the legion's powerhouse as nothing."

"At this point, we must either release him or quickly convict the three people in custody and appease the monks at the same time."

Qu Wenyuan frowned: "Appease? People like them who are lawless and wanton should all be detained. If every monk in the legion is like them, and they entangle themselves with their cronies to cause trouble at the slightest dissatisfaction, we will all appease them one by one." , How can we manage the affairs of the legion? What prestige do you and I have? How will we dispatch the troops in the future? Junior Brother Zhang is too indecisive."

Chapter's expression remained unchanged: "The question is, is the person in custody guilty or not? Of course he should be released if he is not guilty. If he is kept in the detention room without being released and without conviction, won't he become a bandit who robs homes? So-called names. If you are not honest, your words will not go smoothly, and if your words are not right, your actions will not work. The army should act according to the rules and regulations, rather than relying on force to suppress."

The atmosphere in the hall became very subtle for a moment. Everyone saw the two people arguing. They all looked at their noses and their minds, sitting upright on their seats without saying a word.

Although the two people spoke in a calm voice, they were blaming each other both inside and outside of their words. They were all people who had been in officialdom for a long time and had extraordinary experiences. How could they not understand this meaning.

Qu Wenyuan said that Zhang Zhang was indecisive, which meant that he was accusing him of being weak and failing to shoulder the responsibility of deputy captain of the legion.

The chapter refutes that the legion should act according to the rules and regulations, and it is justified. It was also the accusation that Qu Wenyuan acted domineeringly and illegally detained three people, which aroused the public outrage in the Fourth Regiment of the Seventh Column.

The entire alliance army is composed of various forces, and the same is true for the first army. Although most of the top leaders of the alliance army are Taixuanzong monks, the composition of the teams at all levels is not directly allocated from one department or team, but is all different teams. Deployed manpower.

Since Beihai County and Le'an County Xuanmen openly changed their banners and joined forces with Jiang Yunming to rebel with great momentum, Tai Xuanzong put all his energy on the battlefield there, and most of his disciples also went there to fight. More troops to deal with the family rebels in Donglai County.

They can only rely on the Fourth Army Corps stationed in Donglai County and some non-rebellious families in Donglai County to fight against the Liu family rebels.

Taixuanzong only mobilized a few elite high-level monks from various ministries to command and coordinate the Donglai County Alliance Army, and most of the monks below were composed of people from various cultivating families.

Therefore, most of the top leaders of the coalition are Taixuanzong monks. For the first-level leaders of the army, at least half of the ten stewards are Taixuanzong monks.

The reason why this is so is because the various cultivating aristocratic families cannot produce so many high-level monks. Among the many aristocratic families in Donglai County, only the Liu family is considered a wealthy family. Its power covers the entire Donglai County, and its influence in Donglai County is greater than that of the Liu family. Fengyun Chamber of Commerce is even stronger, only slightly inferior to vassal-level sects like Mirror Moon Sect.

Therefore, the Liu family openly rebelled, and many practicing families in major counties immediately followed suit and changed their banners.

In addition to the Liu family, there are only a handful of high-level monks from other big clans in Donglai County. For example, the Sima clan is a first-class clan in Yuanxian County, and the entire Sima clan has only one combined-level monk, and several others. The big families in the county are not much worse than the Sima family.

There are enough combined-level monks from various cultivating families to be counted on two hands. In this case, the top leaders of the coalition will naturally be dominated by Taixuan Sect.

Five of the ten stewards of the first legion are Taixuanzong monks, including the legion commander, inspector, deputy captain and three stewards. Three of the other five stewards are monks from the Jiang family and the other two are from Donglai County. From a local family.

Everyone had not had much interaction before, and they had come together temporarily to form this team. They neither understood each other nor had many entangled interests.

As the commander and deputy commander of the army, Qu Wenyuan and Zhang Zhang have completely different personalities.

Qu Wenyuan has a domineering style, is vigorous and resolute in his work, and is domineering. Chapter is very cautious, has a gentle temperament but is strong at the same time, and focuses on stability in his actions.

Since they formed a team, the two have had disagreements on many matters. It can be said that both parties are somewhat dissatisfied with each other, but they have taken the overall situation into consideration and have never had any disagreements. Even if they have different opinions, they are resolved through private discussions and most of the time. It’s a chapter compromise.

This is the first time since the formation of the legion that conflicts have been made public in front of everyone in the legion meeting hall.
