The door of the Taoist temple was ajar, and the little Taoist priest invited Ye Shiqing in alone.
The rest of the people can only wait outside.
No matter how prominent Ye Shiqing's status is, he really doesn't have much advantage in front of these outsiders. What's more, now the Ye family is asking for help.
In the living room of Xiaodao Temple, Ye Shiqing met the person he wanted to meet.
This is an old Taoist priest, his hair and beard are all white, and he is holding a white whisk in his hand. It is hard to tell how old he is, but the white hair and rosy face are in stark contrast, giving people a white-haired boyish look. The feeling of color.
This kind of person, at first glance, makes people think that they are real people who have accomplished Taoism.
"Are you a descendant of General Ye?" Real person Jing Jing saw Ye Shiqing and seemed to know Ye Shiqing's identity.
Ye Shiqing nodded: "I am Ye Shiqing."
"Well, you are also a person with good luck, it seems that you should be the core figure of the Ye family." The real person Shui Jing glanced at Ye Shiqing and said, "But I see that there is a black air between your brows, and I think you must have encountered it recently. Some troublesome things, since you asked me today, because of General Ye’s affection back then, Pindao can give you some advice.”
"Since the real person already knows my background, I will tell you straight." Ye Shiqing said, "I came here today, I want to ask the real person to come forward and persuade Qingcheng to send masters down the mountain to help the Ye family regain our power in the Jianghu."
"The power of the rivers and lakes you mentioned refers to the Crouching Dragon Hall, right?" Master Shui Jing said calmly, "As far as I know, the old general was the head of the Crouching Dragon Hall, and later he led the people to revolt and became the founding general. It's a good story."
Speaking of this, Master Shui Jing changed his tone, "However—you must know that Wolongtang was not named Ye before. Now that the people of the Lu family have taken back what originally belonged to them, I don't think you need to force it." Now, let’s just return it to its original owner.”
"It turns out that the real person is very clear about the movements in the rivers and lakes." Ye Shiqing said, "However, the real person said that things should be returned to their original owners. Forgive me for not agreeing. Back then, my Ye family revolted and revolutionized, that was the name of the righteousness of the world. Well, the Ye family's seniors can achieve great things, which is what everyone expects. I, the Ye family, lead the Wolong Hall, which is also a matter of righteousness. But now that the world is peaceful, people from the Lu family jump out to do things at this time, it is clearly for their own sake. Selfish sabotage is very detrimental to the overall situation of today's harmonious society!"
Ye Shiqing is worthy of being a military strategist and statesman, and what he said is really "awe-inspiring". If it was someone else, they might be moved by Ye Shiqing's words, but Daoist Shuijing, whose Tao name is "Shuijing", means that the heart is like a mirror of water, which can see through all mirrors and water moons to get the truth. Therefore, how could Master Shui Jing be moved by Ye Shiqing's words, he just said lightly: "What is the overall situation? What is righteousness? The eternal truth is the success of the king and the defeat of the enemy. If you win, you will occupy it." Righteousness; if you lose, then naturally you don’t have righteousness.”
Shui Jing's words really revealed the mystery.
The members of the Ye family were the victors back then, so they can naturally use words such as righteousness, overall situation, forbearance, and the world to whitewash what the Ye family did back then. fact. But now, the members of the Ye family have already lost a sentence, so why talk about the big picture and righteousness
Undoubtedly, now that Lu Qingshan has become the new gang leader of the Gelaohui, in the eyes of the gang, members of the Ye family have become ungrateful, rebellious ministers and thieves, so where is the so-called righteousness? What's more, dealing with the descendants of the Lu family, killing the elders of the Gelaohui... How can these actions be related to righteousness
"Reverend Shuijing, from your point of view, it seems that you don't intend to help our Ye family anymore?" Ye Shiqing's tone was a little dissatisfied, "As far as I know, someone from your Qingcheng faction seems to have been injured, right?"
"That's right. However, I'm just a guest of the Qingcheng faction." Shui Jing said, "You don't need to participate in the sect's struggle for power, just concentrate on practicing. Therefore, the grievances between sects have nothing to do with me Mr. Ye, if you want to use the aggressive method, it is useless to tell the poor, you should go to Qianshan to find the sect master of the Qingcheng sect."
Master Shui Jing has issued an order to evict Ye Shiqing.
But Ye Shiqing managed to find this old Taoist priest, how could he return without success, and said: "True man. Although you are a cultivator, you should also know the truth of repaying your kindness, since you owed our Ye family a favor back then. , you should know that there will be a day to repay favors after all. If you don’t repay your kindness, it may affect Dao Xin of the real person.”
"Huh!" Master Shui Jing snorted coldly, "People in the officialdom are indeed snobbish. Anyway, since I owed the old general a favor back then, I will pay it back to his descendants today. Tell me, what do you want? "
"It's very simple, kill the descendants of the Lu family and his cronies! Wolongtang must be returned to the hands of my Ye family!" Ye Shiqing's face was sullen.
"No!" Master Shui Jing resolutely said, "I have been cultivating in this mountain for decades, and I finally got rid of the blood feud in the rivers and lakes. In exchange for being free and free, how can I kill people for you? I got a favor from the old general and was taken care of by him, so that my lay brother’s wife and children survived. However, before I went up the mountain, I also served him many times. If I want to repay this favor, it should be about the same. If it is other busy , I will not refuse even if I do it with a little effort. However, if you ask me to go down the mountain and kill people indiscriminately, that will not work!"
"No way?" Ye Shiqing sneered, "You think the favor is almost enough, don't you? Then all these years, our Ye family has taken care of your descendants for decades, but what do you say? Those descendants of your brother back then People, they can be regarded as your younger generations. Now they are well-fed and well-fed one by one, which can be regarded as being taken care of by our Ye family. Why, isn’t this account a favor? You can eat the wind and drink the dew, don’t you want to refuse me? request, and let your descendants suddenly turn from a life of ample food and clothing to a beggar or a prisoner?"
Ye Shiqing is worthy of being a politician, he knows how to add bargaining chips to himself.
"You dare to threaten me?" Master Shui Jing's tone turned cold.
"I originally proposed a win-win proposal, but it's a pity that the real person didn't accept it before. I can't help it." Ye Shiqing sighed, "The world is a matter of the world. You also know that although I hold great power, the matter of Wolongtang is after all. It's a matter in the Jianghu, and I can only use the forces in the Jianghu to completely settle the grievances with the Lu family. Gentleman, if you agree to my request, it will still be a win-win result."
When Ye Shiqing said this, his tone of threat became stronger.
Master Shui Jing stared at Ye Shiqing coldly, and the murderous look in his eyes became more and more intense: "Although you are in power, haven't you heard a sentence-five steps of blood spattered by the wrath of a man!"
The implication is that if Master Shui Jing takes action against Ye Shiqing now, no one will be able to stop him.
"A real person, you can be angry with everyone, but your descendants, instead of splashing blood for five steps, blood flows like a river!" Ye Shiqing's tone also turned cold, "You should have heard a saying-one will succeed Ten thousand bones dry! Do you think that, as a general, I dare not kill a few people!"
