Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In a blink of an eye, it’s the end of the month meeting again.

In the meeting hall, Yu Gan announced the candidates for the Spirit Gathering Formation quota, and the only quota for the team was taken by Lu Fang.

At night, in Yu Qiandong's mansion, Tang Ning bowed and saluted, turned his hand over, took out a small decorated box and handed it over. There were twenty-five high-grade spiritual stones in it. This was what he had found out after some recent inquiries. price.

It turns out that all disciples who receive mission rewards are required to visit the caves of each team leader at the end of the year and make offerings.

The standards for enshrining are derived from the spirit stone rewards obtained in a year. Generally speaking, half of them must be handed over to the captain. This is an unwritten rule in Qingwu Camp. If you do not hand it in, your quota for the next year's mission will be lost. It's definitely not your fault.

Although Tang Ning served as the master of the Xuande Hall in the Qian Yizong, the ethos of the small sect of the Qian Yizong was very different from that of the Taixuan Sect, so he was not aware of these sects at first.

In the Qianyi Sect, unless someone is looking for you to do something, such as promoting a deacon or supervisor, they will come to your door to give gifts. There are not so many red tapes on weekdays.

Furthermore, the various departments of the Qianyi Sect issued tasks, and the rewards were not so generous and attractive. At most, some spiritual stones were given to the disciples who performed the tasks, and these were pitifully few.

In addition to generous spiritual stone rewards, Taixuanzong also has merit points, which can not only be exchanged for various items, but are also related to all aspects of oneself, and even affect job promotions.

Therefore, mission quota has become a scarce resource. Since it is a resource, it naturally becomes a transaction. If you don't pay tribute, why should others give this resource to you.

Compared with merit points, spiritual stones are not that important. Giving up half of the spiritual stones obtained as rewards in the past year to obtain the mission quota for the coming year is an exchange acceptable to both parties.

All in all, in a word, both parties gain something from each other. You may think it is a gain, but I definitely do not lose.

Tang Ning only recently understood this truth. After the conversation he had with Fang Dasheng last time, the more he thought about it when he went back, the more he felt that there was something in Fang Dasheng's words, especially that sentence. Many things were in the hands of the captains of each team, which gave him more Walking around with the captain of the team, it is obvious that he has this intention.

He also remembered that Yu Gan had taken great care of him since he came to the Sixth Team directly under him. He had given him two mission quotas, but this time, no information about the quota for the Spirit Gathering Formation had been revealed.

Could it be that she had offended him unintentionally? Thinking of this, Tang Ning hurriedly asked someone to inquire and found out what was going on.

Qingqing was because he didn't turn in the offering, so he was left out.

Yu Qian took the wooden box, opened it, took a look, and put it aside with a smile on his face: "Sit down!"

"Thank you, Uncle Master." Tang Ning took the seat as instructed: "This disciple is new here and doesn't know many things. I hope that Uncle Master will give you more guidance in the future."

Yu Gan said: "Don't worry, we are one of our own. Master Huang has also mentioned you to me. I know in my heart that I will definitely fight for you if I should fight for you."

"Uncle Master, I wonder if the quota for the next Spirit Gathering Formation will go to the disciples?"

Yu Qian gave him a meaningful look: "What, you are just worried about your quota for next year?"

"The disciple's cultivation is low, his qualifications are low, and his salary is not much. If he cannot enter the Spirit Gathering Formation to practice, his one-year salary will not even be enough to pay for the elixirs."

"I'm afraid this is a bit of an exaggeration! Although your annual salary is not high, you still have two million spirit stones, which is enough for you to pay for the elixir. As for the quota for the spirit gathering array! It's still too early now. The rest of the team Several disciples are also eyeing this spot."

"Disciple knows that the place in the Spirit Gathering Array is hard to come by. If my uncle can help me, I will be grateful."

Yu Qian smiled: "Let's talk about this later! You have just joined our sect, so it's better to keep a low profile. You have a long time to come, so there is no need to rush for a while. You don't know that many people in our team have asked me about your origins. They are interested in You are very dissatisfied with receiving so many mission rewards when you first joined the team. I have already been under a lot of pressure to fight for those missions for you.”

"Thank you so much, uncle. Master, I'm so kind to you. I will remember it deeply in my heart."

After the two chatted for a while, Tang Ning stood up to say goodbye, left the cave, cursed the old fox in her mind, and walked away.

………………

The moon is high and the breeze is gentle.

In the slightly dark room, two men sat opposite each other and played a game of chess.

A man with the body of a tiger and the waist of a wolf, thick eyebrows and big eyes, is Qin Jin, the steward of Taixuanzong stationed in Xuantang City.

The other person had a fair complexion, straight features, and a tall and straight figure. He was Sima Nianzu, the deputy captain of Taixuanzong stationed in Xuantang City.

Xie Minghua held the black chess piece in his hand and stared at the chessboard motionless. He slowly lowered it for a while without raising his head and said: "What a pity. Such a good opportunity is only one step away."

Sima Nianzu smiled slightly and gently dropped the white pearl in his hand: "The edge of the sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. It depends on the problem, but it should be light! Junior brother Qin, look, you are confused, eager to win, and soldiers He was so dangerous that he exposed such a big flaw without even realizing it."

Qin Jin saw that a large piece of his chess pieces had been turned into a dead chess piece by his opponent. He sighed slightly, turned over the chess board, flipped his hands, and took out a storage bag that was still on the chess board: "That's it, today it's Senior Brother Sima again. Win."

Sima Nianzu took out the tea at hand, took a sip, and smiled without saying a word.

"Although Senior Brother Sima won the chess game, he lost his position as the leader. What a pity!"

"What joy is gained, and what sorrow is lost."

"Isn't Senior Brother Sima not interested at all? It's just one step away. You just missed the chance to be the leader. I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity in the future."

"It would be a lie to say that I am not tempted at all, but I believe that there will still be opportunities. Life is like a chess game. Winning or losing is often a matter of seconds. Before the winner is determined, all we can do is to work step by step and play steadily."

"For example, Junior Brother Qin, your chess skills are not inferior to mine, but you often lose more and win less. Because you make reckless advances in chess, you often expose your flaws and I break them one by one."

Qin Jin said: "Senior Brother Sima, I have always admired your determination to be neither hasty nor impatient, nor be shocked by honor or disgrace. Today I admire you even more."

"It's just that I don't understand. He, Fang Dasheng, committed such a big thing for his own selfish interests and killed so many people. How could he escape unscathed?"

"Why are those uncles above ignoring him? Even if they don't convict him, they will at least take his position as chief. Others don't care, but uncle Cao shouldn't sit idly by and ignore it!"

"If you could have gone with me to Yuanxian County to meet Master Cao back then, it might not have been so easy for Fang Dasheng to escape so easily."

Sima Nianzu shook his head: "Fang Dasheng is very cunning and will not do anything he is not sure about. The reason why he went to war with Fengyun Chamber of Commerce must have been well prepared. I had already expected that he would not be able to defeat him this time. ”

"Although the outcome of the battle with Fengyun Chamber of Commerce was beyond his expectations, and he may not have expected that Fengyun Chamber of Commerce would be so tough, but if you think about it carefully, all of his decisions and actions in the whole matter were not considered out of bounds."

"Expelling the disciples of the Xuanyangting Fengyun Chamber of Commerce Spirit Beast Farm is not a fault. This matter is a public matter, and it is reasonable for the mother-in-law to say it. Besides, he had discussed it with Hao Jianren in advance, which is equivalent to a decision made by both of them, and leasing the spirit beast It is also an act that is in the interests of the department.”

"For a series of subsequent actions, he passed the coalition's resolution."

"Although more than a dozen disciples were killed or injured because of this incident, it was not him who killed him, but the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce. He cannot be blamed for this."

"Furthermore, Fengyun Chamber of Commerce took the lead in this matter. We launched a counterattack to safeguard the interests of the Xiaoxian Sect. The Xiaoxian Sect originally belonged to the Xuanmen organization, and we ourselves have the responsibility to stabilize order and protect the Xuanmen. "

"If he is dismissed and convicted because of this matter, wouldn't that mean bowing his head to Fengyun Chamber of Commerce? Is he admitting his mistake to Fengyun Chamber of Commerce?"

"Removing Fang Dasheng from his post is a small thing, but losing the face of our sect is a big deal. At this time, Fang Dasheng has already been linked with Taixuan Zong's face. If he touches Fang Dasheng, it is equivalent to slapping himself in the face. He bows his head to Fengyun Chamber of Commerce. How can the higher-ups be willing to do so? Do this.”

"Besides, if we want to hold Fang Dasheng accountable, we must also hold Hao Jianren accountable, because they made the decision together. If Fang Dasheng is convicted, Hao Jianping must be removed."

"Even if Uncle Cao intends to do this, others will not agree. The master-disciple line and the authentic line are on a united front, and no one can touch him."

"In the whole thing, Fang Dasheng's only mistake was to sell spiritual weapons privately, but this matter has been an open secret, and the sale of spiritual weapons is to subsidize the income of the alliance, and it does not go into his personal pocket."

"So it's almost impossible to defeat him through this matter. I didn't have high hopes for this matter from the beginning, so naturally it doesn't matter whether we win or lose."

"On the other hand, Junior Brother Qin, you are quite concerned about gains and losses, man! Once you are concerned about gains and losses, it is easy to see the situation clearly and make wrong judgments."

"Hey! Senior Brother Sima's lofty views are beyond my reach." Qin Jin sighed.
