Taiping Inn

Zhang Haishi suddenly remembered a joke that his senior brother Situ Xuance once said: "If you think the house is too dark and want to open a window in the house, others must have disagree, but if you propose to lift off the roof of the house, Others will come to reconcile and agree to give in and open the window."

Although it is a joke, it breaks human nature in one sentence. Always like to reconcile and compromise.

This is what Li Yuanying thought at this time. His original intention was to open a window, which means to nail Li Xuan to the identity of an outsider, but he was afraid that Zhang Haishi would not agree, so he asked Li Rushi to lift the roof off first That is to say, he disagrees with Li Xuandu as the leader of Taiping Sect, and then Gu Yusheng proposes to open a window, which seems to be giving in and compromising, so Zhang Haishi has to agree.

But Zhang Haishi didn't like it very much. In his opinion, such compromise was no different from that of a market vendor. The price of things that were originally sold for one cent of silver was first increased to two cents of silver, and then to one cent of silver. It seemed that the price was reduced, but in fact it was still Original price. Li Yuanying's concession seemed to be a concession, but in fact it did not.

However, Zhang Haishi did not object immediately, but turned the topic away and said, "Just just now, the third brother and sister said that this matter was like marrying a daughter, which gave me some other ideas. In fact, the third brother became the sect leader and was inappropriate. For example, it is like a daughter-in-law. There are parents-in-laws who need to be filial and serve, and there are husbands who need to be taken care of. There are so many children who need to work hard underneath. It is not only hard work, but also unpleasant at both ends. There are often many things to do. Instead, he still ended up complaining, which was really a chore."

Li Yuanying and Gu Yusheng had an extremely obscure eye contact, and both of them were a little surprised. They did not expect that Zhang Haishi would say such words. This was not like the words that Mr. Second, who was known for his harshness, could say.

Li Yuanying smiled and said, "Senior brother is too rewarded, and Yuanying is ashamed of being accused of taking it."

Zhang Haishi said: "More than 360 islands in the East China Sea, and the Imperial Capital City. The east wall has been repaired and the west wall has collapsed again. Don't work hard on any piece of it, you can afford it."

"If we regard our Qingwei Sect as a big family, the third junior brother is the head of the family, the old sect leader is the parents-in-law, and the disciples below are the children. From this perspective, when going to the Zifu to Taiping Sect to be the head of the sect is to be the daughter-in-law, for example, As for our Qingwei Sect, it seems that nothing is wrong with marrying a daughter."

Li Yuanying and Gu Yusheng looked at each other, and were even more surprised, and at the same time they were a little worried, for fear that Zhang Haishi would have another "but".

As the saying goes, you will come whatever you are afraid of. Zhang Haishi really came with a "but" and said, "But then I thought about it, the reason why the third junior brother looks like a wife is because there is an old sect leader above, but Zifu went to Taiping Sect to work as a The sect leader, but there is no 'in-law' to serve him. From this point of view, it is a bit inappropriate to compare Zifu to a daughter married from Qingwei Sect."

Li Yuanying and Gu Yusheng's faces changed slightly.

Zhang Haishi said softly: "What does it mean to marry a daughter? Su Yun's mother from Cihang Sect married Yan Feiqing from Zhengyi Sect. This is how to marry a daughter. If Zifu went to Liaodong, she would be the son-in-law of Qin Qing, I can also call it a marriage of a daughter, but now Zifu is going to be the leader of Taiping Sect, how could he become a marriage of a daughter?”

Gu Yusheng whispered: "What should this be in the second uncle's opinion?"

Zhang Haishi smiled and said, "The third brother and sister entered the sect late, and some secrets in the sect are not very clear, which is reasonable."

Li Yuanying frowned.

Zhang Haishi looked at Li Yuanying again: "I forgot that some things about the old age are the same, and the other is because they are not very important, so it is not only the third brother and sister, but also the younger brother and sister. What is too clear, of course, also includes the sect leader.”

Zhang Haishi's speech suddenly changed: "But Master Li and several older masters should know."

Li Rushi had already vaguely guessed what Zhang Haishi was going to say, but he was scheming and had already said something to deal with it: "Of course I know, but I don't agree with this matter. What does it matter if I know it or not?"

"That's the reason." Zhang Haishi nodded and turned his gaze to Gu Yusheng: "Three brothers and sisters, do you know the origin of my Qingwei Sect?"

Gu Yusheng was stunned. She knew that Qingwei Sect had been in the East China Sea for thousands of years, but before that, the inheritance of Qingwei Sect was unclear. For example, Zhengyi Sect has records of the way of destroying the witch sect, killing ghosts, and establishing the power of the ally, Xuannv Sect has the legend of Xuannv ascension and leaving the scriptures, Taiping Sect also has the inheritance of Taiping Taoism, Jingzen Sect has the Taoist ancestor The records of Huahu founding Western religions, and the same is true for each sect, only few people know about the Qingwei Sect.

"Do you know why the Qingling Palace where we are now called this name? Because the word "Qingling" corresponds to "Taiping Qingling Sutra"." Zhang Haishi said: "In other words, my Qingwei Sect and Taiping are both The same clan is the same origin, and the existence is dependent on each other."

As soon as this statement came out, Qingling Palace was quiet. What he had known for a long time was naturally silent, and what he didn't know was shocked.

The same was true for Gu Yusheng, who subconsciously looked at Li Yuanying, who frowned and looked deep. He did not know about this, but what annoyed him even more was that Li Rushi, an old man, didn't mention anything in advance, which was really hateful. But he couldn't have an attack, because Li Rushi was not his subordinate, and could only be considered an ally. With the old sect leader, the two of them were equal. From this point of view, Li Rushi was also very reserved. This forced Li Yuanying to think more deeply. After all, Li Rushi is the old sect leader. Has the old sect leader hinted at something that made Li Rushi so conservative? If this is true, does that mean that the old sect leader has not completely given up on Li Xuandu?

Li Yuanying turned his mind a few times in an instant and did not speak.

Zhang Haishi continued: "Everyone knows that Taiping Sect is the inheritance of Taiping Dao. The Taiping Dao Building was about to collapse, and all the direct descendants of Taiping Patriarchs died. Only some of the disciples of the side branches retreated to the current Taiping Mountain. The Taiping Dao swept half of the time. In the world, there are many factions, each with its own territory. This is like a big family, with a distinction between a sect and a side sect. Now the sect is dead, and the remaining side sects naturally do not accept anyone, and suddenly they are in harmony. After the army is one, there are many conflicts in order to fight for power."

Hearing this, everyone in the palace had already guessed the issue.

Zhang Haishi said: "The two major factions all regard themselves as authentic and regard each other as the left-handed. Sects such as Zhengyidao, Quanzhendao, and Gezaodao were far-reachingly influenced by Confucianism, while these two factions of Taipingdao were affected by The Mohist family has a profound influence. There are two major factions of the Mohist family. The first faction is the knighthood, who is diligent in life and death, and has great hardships. He goes to the righteous for his life and is willing to benefit the world. When the Mohist family flourished, it was a time when the country attacked. In the most violent era, not only can we not abandon martial arts, but our spirit of dying is more generous than in previous dynasties. Therefore, many scholars like martial arts. Those who form their own group and do not mix with scholars. The "Confucianism" is called "heroes", and Confucianism emphasizes reputation and loyalty. Confucianism and heroes are divided into Jing and Wei, which lasted for a total of five hundred years. Legalists say: "Confucianism uses literature to disrupt the law, while heroes use Martial violations of the ban, Confucian heroes are in opposition to each other. Heroes should refer to the Mo heroes, not the raiders in the world today."

Gu Yusheng said, "Our Qingwei Sect is the Rangers."

Zhang Haishi nodded and continued, "The other faction, also known as the Mohist descendants, is known for his skillfulness and skillfulness. At that time, the two major factions of Taipingdao at that time, one of the Mohist robbers and the other The Mohist descendants were the predecessors of the Qingwei Sect and the Taiping Sect. In addition to the power struggle, the two factions also had different ideas. Our Qingwei Sect believes that we should accumulate strength and wait for an opportunity to counterattack, but Taiping Sect wants to rest and rest from now on, and then we will be in peace. "" "

A hall master asked, "Now Taiping Sect is still using the name of 'Taiping', but our Qingwei Sect has changed its name. Is it because our Qingwei Sect has been defeated?"

Zhang Haishi nodded and said, "The so-called "projective" must be clear, the distinction between the primary and secondary must be understood. The two do not give in to each other, and finally reach the point where swords and weapons are facing each other. A fierce internal battle, the sky is dark and the earth is dark, and the masters of the two factions are seriously injured. Finally, During the war, my Qingwei Sect originally had the upper hand, but the most powerful method in the world was not in the sword, but various conspiracies and plots. If you fall into the danger of others' calculations, you can cultivate your realm. No matter how high it is, it will never escape the ending of hatred."

All the people here are very experienced and talented. They can't hear the meaning of Zhang Haishi's words. An immediate hall master said, "Mr. Second, the meaning is that Taiping Sect knew he was defeated, so he was defeated by fraud. The plan has led our Qingwei Sect into a trap that has been laid long ago?”

Zhang Haishi sighed: "In the worries of Taiping Mountain that day, all the paths entering and leaving the canyon were blocked. Taiping Sect ambushed the gunpowder and artillery crossbows early. For a moment, the mountains in the valley swayed, and the cannon stones were like rain, and there was also a ground. The fire raged and the cliff rock collapsed. My Qingwei Sect disciples had many injured people, and they had no more energy to compete with Taiping Sect, so they had to withdraw from Taiping Mountain. Taiping Sect itself suffered a lot of losses, and they were worried that my Qingwei Sect would fight to the death. Don't dare to force too much."

There was silence in the hall. Most people didn't know that Qingwei Sect had such a past, with different expressions.

Zhang Haishi said: "After my ancestor Qingweizong left Taiping Mountain, I wanted to go abroad, either to Posa Prefecture or Fenglin Prefecture, but when I passed through the East China Sea, I found that there were many islands here, and they were all spiritual and beautiful. So he stayed here. At that time, there were a large number of idle hermits and pirates entrenched in the islands of the East China Sea. There were many strange people among the pirates, and those overseas cultivators also had a good level. The ancestors had just experienced it. The war suffered heavy losses, so while resting, he slowly took it. It took nearly a hundred years to join forces and suppress it with force, and then wiped out all the pirates entrenched here, and absorbed a large number of overseas cultivators. It became today's Qingwei Sect."

Zhang Haishi looked at Li Yuanying and said slowly: "The ancestor once left an order to accept the loss. Since he was defeated, he would no longer use the word "Taiping" and he would not seek revenge in Taiping Sect. I think it was the ancestors. The sects had a foresight. Thousands of years later, my disciples from Qingwei Sect would go to Taiping Sect to inherit the lord of Taiping Sect. So I said that this was not a marriage to a daughter, but an adoption by brothers of the same sect, that is, succession."

"For this reason, in this matter, our Qingwei Sect has no choice but to support the Zifu in inheriting the throne of Taiping Sect, so that we can comfort the spirit of the ancestors in heaven."

There was no more objection in the Qingling Palace.

Li Yuanying's eyes were deep.

Isn’t the lord of the Qingwei Sect the lord of Taiping Sect the lord of Taiping Taoism?

He originally thought that the so-called "three-four dispute" had been settled with Li Xuandu's departure from Qingwei Sect, but now it seems that it is still too early.
