Shao Jinming didn't think that the senior brother would have any murderous intentions for him, and besides when the senior senior brother was supervising the big guy's practice, he was not strict at other times and was always kind.
So he didn't take what happened just now to his mind, he calmed down and said: "Junior Brother Tong, I'm afraid I have to enlighten him, otherwise I'm afraid not only I will mistake myself, but also others."
He said this very politely, but Mo Chen understood what he meant.
If Tong Hao continues to dig into the horns of the dead, it will not only shake his Dao heart, but he will not be able to go on the road of cultivation from now on. If he really holds grudges against others, and feels that he has fallen into this situation because of others, or has evil thoughts, If there are bad words or even bad deeds, something will happen sooner or later.
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
Shao Jinming breathed a sigh of relief.
He found out about this, and if he kept it secret, he was afraid that something would happen in the future. Now that he has already told the senior brother, he is not so worried.
"Then I'll..."
"I watched your sword moves today." Mo Chen paused for a moment, "I didn't want to say much in front of everyone just now. Your sword moves are a little too rigid."
Shao Jinming was overjoyed.
The big senior brother especially prefers the junior junior brother. Everyone knows this, and he has nothing to be jealous of. After all, the junior junior brother is still young. Can he fight for this like a child
But sometimes he also thinks that if the elder brother gets close to him, he can see him sooner or later, and he can get advice from time to time, that will be a big advantage.
Now the big brother is willing to remind him one more time, probably because he has to thank him for what happened just now.
"Brother, please give me some pointers."
"Actually, there is nothing to point out about this matter." Mo Chen said: "Beifu City is freezing cold, with continuous rain and snow, you can practice more in the snow."
Practice more in the snow
Shao Jinming was a little puzzled, but Mo Chen had already turned around and left.
He turned around and kept thinking, what does it mean to practice more in the snow
It just so happened that it didn't snow today, so he would try it when it snowed later.
Huiliu Mountain also snows in winter, but not as much or as much as here. Usually Shao Jinming didn't like snow, but now he was uncharacteristically looking forward to the snow falling soon.
The snow hadn't fallen yet, but Li Fulin and his party came back.
Everyone is curious about the succession of the new city lord. Although the inside story is complicated, it is a good thing in the end. To put it bluntly, Huiliu Mountain has encountered a lot of bad things these days. Everyone is depressed and needs some good news to refresh.
Jiang Fan came in holding a big box.
"What's this?"
"The City Lord's Mansion is so generous, this is their gift in return. And when we came back, we specially went to Dongqian Street to pick up the dim sum and lo-mei we bought. The lo-mei was wrapped tightly and it was still hot."
It tastes best when it's hot, although it has a unique flavor when it's cold, but wouldn't it be nice to eat it fresh and hot right now
As soon as the oiled paper package was unpacked, the delicious smell of lo mei spread in the room. Except for Mo Chen, everyone went over and squeezed a piece and bit on it.
Well, after all, Mo Chen has his elder brother's face to take care of, and besides, he usually doesn't want to make a fuss about it.
"Senior brother Jiang, tell us, is the succession ceremony of the city lord lively today?"
Jiang Fan didn't bother to talk, he picked up the cup and poured two big glasses of water.
"Why are you so thirsty? There is no tea in the City Lord's Mansion?"
Jiang Fan shook his head: "That's not the case, I didn't pay attention to drinking. Today's succession ceremony, hey, it's very lively."
Everyone cheered up and listened to him.
"The city lord's mansion is quite big, but there are too many guests today, and there is no room for so many tables and chairs in the hall, so we moved them to the courtyard behind the lobby. Hey, it's Beifu City after all, rich and rich The whole floor of the red blanket seemed to be on fire, the red silk was so heavily tied, and the wind blew the silk fluttering, not to mention the decorations, the gold and silver wares seemed to be free of money..."
Xiaodong interrupted him: "Hey, what are you talking about, what's there to say about wearing red and hanging colors, let's get to the point."
"Isn't this going to get to the point soon?" Jiang Fan took another sip of water: "Others also brought disciples with them, but they all stayed outside and didn't let them in. I still had a bit of face and went in with Master. "
With such a big scene in the city of Beifu, there must have been a lot of carelessness in the haste. For example, Master and the others served a cup of tea when they went, but no one came to refill the tea afterwards. If the master is like this, let alone Jiang Fan, the little follower.
That's fine, everyone didn't rush to drink tea or eat, not to mention that Master didn't eat much grains these years.
To Jiang Fan's surprise, it wasn't long before the master went in and sat down, when someone started making trouble.
The two people invited together had old grievances. It's no secret that many people know about it. Beifucheng didn't know whether it was because he was in a hurry, or because he didn't care about these details, but he even arranged the two of them to sit together. As a result, the two of them flirted with each other, sneered and taunted each other, and finally threw cups and bowls into a commotion. up.
Fortunately, it was not a big deal, so others persuaded them and pulled them to sit apart.
But one wave is not flat, and another wave rises again. Some people over there felt that the seating arrangement was unfair and resented. Although no one has heard of this person's sect, if he came from a small place, if it weren't for the large number of people coming to Beifu City this time, I'm afraid we won't meet him in the future.
The sect is not well-known, and its cultivation is not very good, but the person who came here is not young, his hair and beard are snow-white, and he is old-fashioned when he speaks. His seniority is not low, and he can compete with Li Fulin's late master Be regarded as a peer. This person felt that with his seniority, few guests present were higher than him, so even if he didn't sit as the chief, he should be given the respect he deserved, right
The results of it? To actually arrange for him a very inconspicuous seat in a corner, and the people sitting in the same seat are all juniors, this is simply too embarrassing for him.
These commotions are minor disturbances, not a big deal, but it is enough to see that the arrangements of the City Lord's Mansion this time are not thorough enough. Everyone doubted the ability of the new City Lord, and now they are even more muttering in their hearts.
The last time City Lord Song called everyone to a meeting at Ruoshuitai, the scene was so solemn and orderly.
And from today's small things, it can be seen that the prestige of the City Lord's Mansion in the hearts of everyone is not as good as before. If it were the last time City Lord Song was still there, those two people just now had to hold back any hatred they had, and the old man didn't dare to make such a fuss.
When the succession ceremony was about to start, all the people saw the new city lord, and they couldn't help being very surprised.
The new castellan is really... well, young and promising.
Li Fulin was also a little surprised.
He knew that the new city lord was not very old, but he didn't expect that he looked not much worse than his first apprentice.
Letting such a person be the city lord is not nonsense.
Does he have enough prestige to convince the public? Does he have the real ability to make others obey
This is purely a result of a compromise between many forces in the city lord's mansion.
This new city lord is just a puppet, he cannot be the home of the city lord's mansion, nor can he be the lord of Beifu City.
As an old friend of City Lord Song, Li Fulin even felt that being called City Lord with such a person would bring shame on the face of the late City Lord Song.
Such a successor simply lowered Song Cheng's worth and prestige.
The new city lord looks like there are thirty at most? To put it bluntly, he is a handsome young man.
There was no joy or complacency on his face, but he looked... dazed.
That's right, it's dazed.
Probably this person himself didn't expect that the post of city lord would fall on him from the sky, maybe he was knocked unconscious
This person doesn't look dull, and he definitely understands that he, the city lord, is just a compromise under the balance of power among all parties, just a cover, not to mention that people outside will not recognize him, even in the city lord's mansion, does anyone listen to him
Although the scene was lively, the atmosphere was honestly quite embarrassing.
Even Jiang Fan, a spectator who was a follower, could feel the dilemma of the new city lord, standing on the stage like a marionette at the mercy of others.
It's fine if it's just embarrassment, but when receiving the seal of the city lord, someone came out to raise objections.
This mess is not the same as the small fight just now.
The man came up and said, "The city lord of Song Dynasty has not avenged his revenge, why did the city lord's seal change hands so easily?"
Jiang Fan hastily drank two more sips of water when he spoke up to this point.
The package of lo mei on the table was almost finished by everyone, Jiang Fan opened another package of dim sum. This kind of snack is not too sweet, and the mouth is soft and can be swallowed without chewing. Jiang Fan ate a piece of snack before continuing.
This person seemed to be an invited guest, and the moment he stood up like this, the succession ceremony was interrupted.
The faces of the people present were all different. Some frowned, some had nothing to do with them, and some looked optimistic, obviously hoping that the mess would get bigger and better. Jiang Fan also heard someone whispering from below, although this City Lord Li looks young and tender, he must be not simple inside.
Some people also said that the incomplete death of City Lord Song was not caused by their own people who seized power. It is not certain that City Lord Li is so innocent on the surface.
An elder from the City Lord's Mansion came out to explain, saying that City Lord Song's great revenge must be avenged, and no matter how many years it took, the murderer must be found out. However, the City Lord's Mansion cannot be left alone. City Lord Li is young and promising, and has a good character. Everyone can trust this, so it is finally agreed that he will take over as the city lord.
The person who stood up said that Beifu City had previously said that it would elect a new city lord, so all these talented scholars who came from south to north gathered in Beifu City. No matter who the Song City Lord was plotted against, what he said must not be counted, right? Since it is said that everyone can compete for it, is it reasonable for the people of Beifu City to randomly find someone from among their juniors to take over regardless of others
In such a huge courtyard, the voices of people discussing one after another, like a tide, did not stop.
These words spoke out the thoughts of many people.
That's right, everyone had a chance regardless of their background, but now Beifucheng decides the candidate by himself, so why call them here? Isn't this a joke? (to be continued)
