Following the introduction of Deacon Fu, Wu Zhe and others entered the inner sect area of the sect.
The decoration of the inner door building is obviously much better than that of the outer door, and it is also more majestic than the beautiful Yuan Healing Hall.
The place where the Great Elder handles official business is the inner hall.
The disciples and attendants who passed by didn't look at Wu Zhe and others too much. Obviously, the discipline of the inner sect was much stricter.
An awe-inspiring atmosphere loomed in the Inner Gate area. Zong Zhilian, the second son of Qi State, is fine, but Hu Yun doesn't care too much about power when he hurts an idiot.
Er Yatou and Mu Qingya were so nervous that their faces turned red, and they were a little unsteady when they walked.
In fact, a large number of profound energy masters gathered here, and the aura of a hundred years was condensed here, which made the people with lower ranks feel oppressed.
Wu Zhe is an exception among the exceptions, leisurely and leisurely like an outing, without the slightest feeling of being cramped and countryman entering a big garden.
Deacon Fu secretly saw it, but he had more confidence in this girl. As expected of the female disciple who Elder Bai would rather risk his face than issue an urgent order to change the list of potential stars.
In fact, after Wu Zhe merged with the super-evolved body, it seemed that he lacked a natural sense of crisis, and just relied entirely on the body's alarm.
When they arrived at the entrance of the inner hall, Deacon Fu asked Hu Yunshang and the other four to drink tea in the side hall first.
Mu Qingya and the second girl didn't even dare to sit down, they stood there nervously with their hands tied.
"Don't worry, the elders of the Zongmen are actually very talkative." Wu Zhe shrugged his shoulders to adjust the atmosphere: "Do you know that I bullied an elder not long ago, and even robbed him of a fortune."
"That's you..." The second girl's voice trembled a little.
Mu Qingya also nodded, she was calmer than the second girl. But when it came to such a big scene as the elders of the sect, he was extremely nervous.
A steward of the Zongmen can sit side by side with a head of the outer sect, and the deacon should be a little higher. The status of an elder is more respected, let alone a great elder.
Steward, deacon, dharma protector, elder, suzerain, these are the common ranks of sects from low to high.
Seeing that the two girls still felt nervous, Wu Zhe joked, "Think about it this way, Zongmen is a big hotel."
Restaurant? Deacon Fu was taken aback when he heard that. To have the imagination to compare the Zongmen to a big hotel is definitely counting on two hands.
"The outer disciples are the servants of the back kitchen, the inner disciples are the waiters in the lobby, the stewards are the ones who serve the dishes, the deacons are the chefs, the shopkeepers are the ones who settle accounts at the front desk, the elders are at most the shopkeepers, and only the suzerain is the head of the restaurant. Boss." Wu Zhe said seriously.
The second girl and the others were all dumbfounded.
We are invited here now, probably because we have been well received by the guest officers. The shopkeeper called a few of our guys to come over to encourage us, and reward us with a few copper coins at most. Tell me, what is there to be nervous about? At most, we offended the boss with a few words, and we just went back to the back kitchen as a helper. "
"..." Er Yatou and Mu Qingya were stunned for a moment, thinking about it carefully, they suddenly wanted to laugh.
That's true, why take this matter so seriously
The two women suddenly felt a lot more relaxed psychologically.
Deacon Fu heard the black line on his forehead pop up, and the entire sect could count on one hand the people who dared to make such a comparison of the sect's identity.
But Hu Yunshang suddenly asked blankly: "What if the shopkeeper fires the annoying waiter?"
Hearing this, the two women were instantly struck by lightning.
"You idiot!" Wu Zhe went over and knocked Hu Yun on the head, and said angrily, "You won't be employed again after being laid off? Brainless, if you don't stay here, you will have a place to stay!"
"..." Deacon Fu could hardly listen.
What do you mean? Although I don't fully understand it, I can tell that you still dare to abandon the sect
Xiao Niu is the only one in the entire sect who can say this kind of words openly!
The faces of the two girls turned pale with fright, and Mu Qingya quickly covered Wu Zhe's mouth with her hands.
Wu Zhe didn't mind the tender little hand covering his mouth with a hint of girlish fragrance.
"Miss Xiao, come with me." Deacon Fu hurriedly brought Wu Zhe inside and waited to be seen.
As soon as he entered the compartment of the inner hall, Deacon Xi came out to greet him, cupped his hands and said, "The Great Elder told Xiao Ruoyao to enter the inner hall."
Entering the inner hall, I saw the Great Elder who I had seen during the entrance examination was holding a booklet of internal affairs and looking at it.
He was the only one in the hall, no one else.
Deacons Fu and Deacon Xi stood with their arms tied, waiting at the entrance of the inner hall.
Wu Zhe suspected in his heart that there were many people like Elder Bai hiding somewhere, watching him secretly.
"Come in?" The Great Elder put down the letter.
"Xiao Ruoyao, I have met the Great Elder." Wu Zhe cupped his hands.
"The old man once saw that your memory skills are amazing, which is excellent compared to your brain." The elder didn't lift his eyelids, picked up another book, looked at it a few times, and asked directly: "There is a trivial matter to be decided here. There is a disciple who speaks rudely, and keeps saying that he needs the sect to give him good treatment to help him grow in Qi training, otherwise he will go elsewhere."
Wu Zhe lowered his eyes slightly, and stared at the Great Elder with a little respect when he spoke.
The Great Elder asked: "Xiao Ruoyao, help me think about it, how should this matter be resolved?"
"Master of the sect, how can you be distracted!" Wu Zhe said solemnly: "I think that under normal circumstances, this disciple should take the responsibility seriously, and don't allow such words to have any breeding ground."
"Well, then what kind of punishment is appropriate?" The Great Elder asked indifferently: "Should I hit fifty boards, or 30 slaps?"
Wu Zhe hurriedly said: "Forgive me for not finishing. If this disciple said it for fun, or to comfort some people not to be nervous under certain circumstances, he can not be punished. Let him understand in his heart. , Never commit another crime, that’s all.”
"..." The Great Elder put down the booklet in his hand and looked at Wu Zhe.
Wu Zhe clasped his hands together and didn't make a sound.
"Xiao Ruoyao, tell me, will this person understand?"
"Of course I understand. I guess it's just to comfort my companions, so I must pay attention to it in the future."
"Well, that's it, you go down. I hope this person understands."
"Xiao Ruoyao thanked the elder for this disciple." Wu Zhe took two steps back respectfully, but stopped again, cupped his hands and said, "I have a merciless request."
The Great Elder hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your kindness?"
"It's not for myself, but for the second girl from my village who accidentally smashed the foundation stone of Yuan Healing in the Yuan Healing Hall, so I ask the elders to take care of me."
The Great Elder nodded: "Well, I will arrange for someone to give her a better foundation stone, so don't worry."
"Thank you Great Elder." Wu Zhe then retreated.
After exiting the inner hall, Deacon Fu didn't say much, and directly led Wu Zhe to the cubicle.
The second girl jumped up to welcome her: "How are you, girl? What did the Great Elder say? What reward did he give you?"
"It's not bad if you don't hit the board." Wu Zhe explained the matter with a sad face, but he didn't say that the problem of the second girl laying the foundation stone was solved.
Deacon Fu knew it in his heart, and when he heard that she concealed the content of the petition for the second girl, he immediately raised his evaluation of Wu Zhe to a higher level: it is rare to see such a child who does not sell well to his companions.
Sad goodbye, nerds are used to killing people, Wu Zhe burst into tears.
However, when leaving the inner hall, Wu Zhe heard the Great Elder coughing three times inside.
Wu Zhe's heart suddenly moved...
