How to become a full-time hunter
Chapter 354 Seven Earthly Branches
"Everyone, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive!"
Chuniu hurriedly dissuaded him. He was in a big headache now, and he was a little guilty.
Because he was the one who stopped Kurapika's fist. If he hadn't stopped it at that time, Kurapika might have smashed Kuroro's head!
Chuniu felt that he was also partly responsible for this situation, but he really didn't expect things to turn out like this!
Chuniu thought that this Earthly Branch Meeting was the same as the previous meetings. Everyone was indifferent and no one would make constructive suggestions.
When the meeting was about to end, he proposed the decision to punish the brigade and sold it to Kurapika for a favor. Anyway, no one would stop him, after all, no one was willing to take responsibility.
At that time, there would definitely be abstentions. With his and Kurapika's two votes in favor, the execution of the brigade was basically a foregone conclusion!
'How did it become like this? 'Chuniu couldn't figure it out.
"Okay, okay. Chen Long, you are too stubborn. It won't make any difference if you compromise occasionally."
At this time, a big-eyed beauty with a curvy figure stood up to smooth things over.
If you look closely, you will find that her eyes are actually vertical pupils, like snake eyes. She is also the only female earthly branch in this voyage - Si Snake.
"Compromise? The beginning of the collapse is because of a little compromise!"
Chen Long rolled his eyes at Si Snake unhappily, "Don't persuade me anymore, I want to teach this young man a good lesson!"
Kurapika looked directly at Chen Long and asked coldly: "Rely on fists?"
Before Chen Long opened his mouth, Shen Hou on the side said first: "Of course, whoever has the bigger fist will listen to him!"
"Chen Long, only this time, I support you! I have long disliked this kid!" Yin Hu also said.
Yin Hu has always been at odds with Chen Long at the earthly branch meeting. After all, Chen Long is a steady conservative, while Yin Hu is a radical. The two of them have quarreled a lot!
Today, the two of them actually formed a rare united front!
At this time, the horse-faced man who had been sitting still in his seat suddenly stood up and walked out without looking back.
Chou Niu hurriedly said: "Wuma, where are you going?"
"I'm bored, I'm going back to sleep first."
It turned out that this horse-faced man was Wu Ma in the twelve earthly branches.
"By the way, Sishe, come here, my neck is a little uncomfortable, can you help me take a look." When Wu Ma left, he called away Sishe, who was also an earthly branch.
Sishe is the top coroner and pharmacist in the association. This exploration of the Dark Continent cannot be done without her. On this ship, she is also responsible for the medical affairs of the hunters.
"You, your neck is too long, and you have a stiff neck again when you sleep, right?" Sishe covered her mouth and chuckled, and walked towards Wu Ma.
"Yes, it's an old problem." Wu Ma covered his neck and looked uncomfortable.
"Don't go too far, I'll go to see him." Before leaving, Sishe turned back and asked.
As soon as he stepped out of the meeting room, Wu Ma put his hand down, and there was no sign of discomfort.
"The reason you made up is too fake." Si She said with a smile.
Wu Ma said calmly, "It doesn't matter, I just want to leave. Didn't you follow me out too?"
It turned out that Wu Ma and Si She were liberals among the twelve earthly branches. They were not conservative, but not radical either. They abstained from voting in most meetings. But if a certain issue involves their own interests, they will also support radicals or conservatives!
In short, liberals have no fixed factions, they are only loyal to their own interests.
"Did you see it? This meeting is targeting that young man." Si She said softly.
"Well, it's normal. The twelve earthly branches have not changed for many years. It is understandable that a child is suddenly added to test his depth."
Wu Ma said calmly: "It's nothing more than a warning to him not to think that joining the earthly branches can make him equal to us. He is not worthy. After all, we haven't really recognized him yet."
Si She nodded when he heard it, but his eyebrows gathered together, and a light flashed in his pupils.
"But I'm more curious, why would Chen Long target the newcomer? He's always steady, but this time he's standing at the front, which is really not right."
"Well, it's really strange. But what does this have to do with us?" Wu Ma chuckled.
The two walked and talked, and soon disappeared at the end of the corridor.
——————
Wuma and Sishe left, and only five people were left in the conference room.
Kurapika and Chen Long looked at each other from a distance, Shen Hou and Yin Hu were obviously on Chen Long's side, leaving only Chou Niu standing there at a loss.
If Chou Niu stopped it, it would be equivalent to standing on the opposite side of conservatives and radicals. But if he didn't stop it, the two of them might really fight!
This made Chou Niu, who always did things in a comprehensive manner, very embarrassed.
"Hu——"
Kurapika took a deep breath.
"Senior Chen Long, I seem to understand something. I want to go back and reflect on my mistakes. Thank you for your teachings."
After saying that, Kurapika turned and left, retreating without a fight.
This disappointed the Monkey and Tiger, but Kurapika had already admitted his mistake, so they didn't say anything more and left in a sullen mood.
Only the Ox and the Dragon were left, and the Earthly Branches Meeting could no longer be held.
It didn't matter whether the meeting was held or not. For the Ox, not fighting was the best outcome.
But the Dragon stood silently in the same position as when Kurapika left, motionless.
"Heh... What a nice young man." After a long silence, the Dragon suddenly spoke.
Chuniu was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Long to give Kurapika such a high evaluation.
'We almost had a falling out and fought. In the end, he gave people such a high evaluation? '
"Could it be that you are testing Zishu?" Chuniu asked in a low voice.
"Hahahaha!"
Chen Long laughed and left without giving Chuniu any explanation.
"It seems that I thought too much..." Chuniu said to himself, "Maybe I will try to change? Being a good person is really tiring..."
——————
Kurapika actually understood. Kurapika understood what Chen Long said! He has been reading a lot since he was a child, and he also has some knowledge of jurisprudence.
But even if he understood, Kurapika was unwilling to accept it!
Kurapika knew that he had no right to kill people, but since he chose the path of revenge, he knew what he would face.
This time, he took the initiative to admit defeat not because he was afraid of Chen Long, but because Kurapika felt that something was wrong.
His intuition told him that he needed to retreat.
What Kurapika couldn't understand the most was why Chen Long was targeting him, even to the point of fighting!
Kurapika was no stranger to this senior. He had met Chen Long many times and knew very well what kind of person Chen Long was. He would never do this!
For the belief he held in his heart, Chen Long was even willing to sacrifice his own interests. He was not a loyal person!
Kurapika returned to the room and was about to recall the scene in the conference room. At this time, Lu Man came to the door.
"Kurapika, I have something to tell you."
Seeing Lu Man's serious expression, Kurapika was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said: "What is it?"
