Has the imperial court long wanted to eliminate us
That night, I had a very scary dream. "
Then, Bai Chen recounted the entire story to his eldest brother. Of course, he did not mention that Mei Huayan was abused to death in the end.
He even added some of his own thoughts, "Brother, the Huaishan Sect has so many masters, and also has a geographical advantage. If the enemy doesn't have internal insights, they won't be able to break in.
There must have been a spy who poisoned the wine.
The dream was so real, so real that it felt like I had experienced it before.
I wonder if this is a warning from God to us."
"You said that the person who rescued Lin Qi in the dream was named Geng?" the eldest brother asked in surprise. The younger sister had never heard of such a person as Geng Tianchou.
But he actually appeared in his sister's dream. Coincidentally, Lin Qi was sent by Geng Tianchou.
What does that mean? Maybe this is really a warning from God to Huaishan!
"Yes, brother. In the dream, Lin Qi also said that he was the son of a great hero. How could he possibly be interested in a country woman? He married me only for the sake of power."
This made the eldest brother even more surprised. Lin Qi was General Qiu's son, and only his parents and he knew about it. It was impossible for his sister to know this for no reason.
Then Meng Jing’s words are of course more convincing.
"So, you kicked Lin Qi during morning exercise that day! Was it because you were angry about what you saw in your dream?" the eldest brother asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, I hate him for being so heartless, cold, indifferent, and ungrateful in my dream."
Bai Chen's words were choked with sobs, his eyes were misty with tears, they shone brightly in the moonlight, his whole body seemed to be shrinking and trembling because of the dream.
Seeing his sister like this, the eldest brother felt a little pity for her. Without any suspicion, he gently stroked Bai Chen's shoulder, and his eyes became much gentler.
“Don’t ever tell anyone except your parents about what you saw in your dream.
Regardless of whether your dream will actually happen, we should take precautions against it.
Go back, it’s late.”
When Bai Chen heard his elder brother's words about taking precautions, he breathed a sigh of relief. In Huaishan, his own strength was limited.
To escape the fate of being destroyed, with the entire Huaishan defending in advance, the chances of winning would be much greater.
When the officers and soldiers attack, we will not be vulnerable.
"Yes!" Bai Chen nodded in agreement, but when he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered the matter of his second senior sister and eldest senior brother.
Now is a good time to test the waters.
"Brother, what do you think of Second Senior Sister?"
The eldest brother was stunned, somewhat confused, "Is my sister doubting Bingyue? She can't be."
Bai Chen immediately had an idea in his mind, as if his eldest brother also had a good impression of his second senior sister.
"No, I didn't doubt her. Today, I was planning to go talk to Second Senior Sister, but I ran into Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister by accident."
"Oh!" The eldest brother's curiosity was aroused. Could it be that they had an unusual relationship
Thinking of this, the eldest brother frowned, with a hint of displeasure on his face.
The subtle change in his expression did not escape Bai Chen's eyes, and it seemed that there was something going on.
"The eldest senior brother confessed his love to the second senior sister, but the second senior sister disagreed.
The extremely angry eldest senior brother actually said, "Brother, there is no way you can like second senior sister," and asked the second senior sister to stop dreaming.
Later, the angry and humiliated eldest brother was even ready to force himself on the second sister, but of course he was beaten by the second sister with the plum blossom needle.
The second sister cried particularly hard!
God bless her, she was crying and calling your name!"
"Really?" The eldest brother was moved.
It's not that the eldest brother has no feelings for Bingyue. They were childhood sweethearts, and he still remembers them vividly.
But over the years, he has been obsessed with martial arts and has never thought about love affairs.
People of all walks of life don’t get married so early. My father got married when he was in his twenties.
The eldest brother approves of Bingyue in his heart. If a man must marry a wife, then she is the only one he can accept.
"Yes! Second Senior Sister is so pitiful!" Bai Chen blinked and looked at his eldest brother's handsome face in the moonlight.
He and Second Senior Sister look like a good couple.
I hope the matchmaking will be successful.
The eldest brother imagined the scene of Bingyue being bullied and could not bear it anymore, so he turned around and flew away, probably to comfort his Bingyue.
He didn't even care about his sister who was standing alone in the night. It's true that he has no humanity towards the opposite sex.
After morning exercises on the second day, Bai Chen followed his fifth senior brother to his smelting department.
This department did not exist in the Huaishan School originally, and it was established only a few years ago.
There is another little story in between.
Back then, when my dad was traveling around the world, he saw a little beggar. That child was our fifth brother. At that time, he was being chased and bullied by a group of kids.
However, the situation was reversed later and it turned out that the fifth brother bullied all the children.
Why
Because, the fifth senior brother, who had no martial arts skills at all, actually invented a kind of "hidden weapon" using stones, and beat those kids to a pulp.
The father found it very rare and thought the child was smart.
So, they brought him back to the Huaishan School, and later hired a smelting master to be his teacher.
The master taught the fifth brother for three years, then shook his head and said that the boy’s talent for smelting was too high and he had nothing more to teach him, and then he went down the mountain.
Dad suddenly had an idea and wanted to try to set up a weapons smelting department himself.
Because, every year, the biggest expense for the sects is to buy weapons from the martial arts world. The prices of slightly better weapons are ridiculously high.
With a genius like the fifth brother, not only can we reduce some expenses, but we can also get some weapons out there and sell them secretly.
Fifth Brother has become fanatical about the invention of hidden weapons.
Not only can he invent his own hidden weapons, he can also improve on the hidden weapons available in the market, greatly increasing their lethality and convenience.
While touring, Bai Chen was thinking whether he could fight against the government's army of more than one hundred thousand when all the hidden weapons here were put to use.
After staying with Fifth Senior Brother for a whole day, Bai Chen has gained a preliminary understanding of the weapons, or hidden weapons, in this world.
There are hundreds of different kinds of weapons and hidden weapons. Brother Five has detailed explanations on which weapons are suitable for which people.
At present, the Huaishan School has stores in many cities, and in many cities they secretly sell Fifth Brother’s Huaishan weapons at high prices.
I heard that business is booming.
Some weapons must be ordered two or three months in advance.
The price is of course very expensive.
This is one of the largest sources of financial income for the Huaishan Sect.
You may wonder why the Huaishan sect dares to produce its own weapons. Isn’t the production of self-produced weapons prohibited by the country
That’s because, in this world, many martial arts sects produce their own weapons.
The imperial court no longer had any control over them.
The Huaishan School simply followed the example of some larger schools and established its own smelting department.
During the generation of the Huaishan School's founder, the financial revenue was in deficit and all the disciples were very poor.
Some disciples even went out to rob and rob, which damaged Huaishan's good reputation that had lasted for hundreds of years.
After my father succeeded to the position of the head of the sect, he reflected on his mistakes and began to innovate independently, allowing disciples in the sect to go out and do business.
Then he bought shops, good farmland, and opened teahouses, grain stores, cloth shops, and all kinds of businesses.
