Chapter 103 Reunion Dinner
"What bigger chess?" Jiang Shiwu suddenly asked, "Is it the god they called? Brother Liang and I have seen it. It is indeed powerful, but it is not invincible!"
He Mingzhang thought for a while and said, "Well... As far as you told me last time you came back, the 'creation of gods' may be just an appearance, or it is not He Yao's true intention, but just the understanding of the people below."
Liang Ye changed the subject: "So you want to see me specifically. What is the matter of asking me...?"
He Mingzhang said in an unquestionable tone: "I want you to protect Hongzhen! The head of the sect once told me that after many deductions, there may be major changes in the world. Jiang Hong's true body is Maoshan's lifeline. If there is chaos in the future, the survival of Maoshan will be in this son!"
Liang Ye and Jiang Shiwu were both shocked. Jiang Shiwu opened his mouth and pointed at him. He Mingzhang nodded affirmatively and said, "Hongzhen is young and can't convince everyone. There is really a day when I hope Mr. Liang will help him more!"
Liang Ye's solemn expression was a little relieved, and he said relaxedly: "Don't worry, no matter whether he is in Maoshan's lifeline or not, I will do my best to help him!"
He Mingzhang nodded with relief, and then sighed: "Oh... you know about Qian Mingjian, and now all sects don't know how many Qian Mingjian there are! So in order to prevent accidents, I went against the opposition and passed on all my cultivation to Hongzhen, but I also accused Hongzhen of staying outside."
Jiang Shiwu smiled bitterly and said, "Master, you don't know. Now, except for the third brother, the other brothers' eyes have changed when they look at me... They are all naked jealousy!"
He Mingzhang shook his head helplessly: "I was injured by the banned demon, and my true energy is often leaked. Fortunately, you proved your innocence in time, otherwise I could only pass my cultivation to Xiaojiu. After all, before you started, he was the most talented candidate! But he is indeed not as good as you!"
"No wonder they are so indifferent to you..." Liang Ye looked at Jiang Shiwu, "It turns out that you ruined such a big good thing for them!"
"People who practice practice should not be competitive and lack greed. However, the practice itself is to seize fortune and compete for the best..." He Mingzhang took a sip of tea, "I am worthy of Maoshan, but not Xiaojiu, alas..."
Liang Ye then drank the tea in the cup and comforted him: "Elder He has worked hard and everyone will understand it in the end! In addition, I think you should not take this matter yourself, so why doesn't the head say something?"
He Mingzhang said helplessly: "The Dark Moon Alliance is now widely penetrated everywhere, so this matter cannot be said to everyone. In addition, the opportunity of the head has arrived. From the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it will hit the earthly fairy realm. If you succeed, you will be able to attain the fruit position of the earthly fairy. If you lose...ah..."
Jiang Shiwu stared at his eyes in surprise and said, "Is the leader silenced to death? You haven't said it before! Isn't that..."
He Mingzhang smiled bitterly and said, "Yes... That's why he told me about you before, and I passed my cultivation to you desperately! Hongzhen, don't let Master down, don't let the leader down!
"What is death hindrance?" Liang Ye said in confusion.
Jiang Shiwu explained: "The so-called "close-off" means retreating when you know that the chance of breaking through is very small. If you don't break through, you will either break through once or practice for a long time..."
Liang Ye thought for a while and asked, "Doesn't that mean that Maoshan has no leader for a long time?"
Jiang Shiwu said: "Yes...so my master is currently in charge of daily affairs for the time being, but if the leader fails to make a breakthrough in the end, the leader will have to be re-chosen."
He Mingzhang coughed lightly and said, "This matter should not be made public. It is not said to the public that it is a death sentence. Please keep it confidential."
Liang Ye said solemnly: "Don't worry, I'm very strict."
The important matter was over, and He Mingzhang breathed a sigh of relief. He planned to chat for a while, but unexpectedly, he coughed several times, trembling all over his body, and his already hunched figure became even more hunched.
"Master! You're coughing wrong!" Jiang Shiwu quickly went over and patted He Mingchang's back, "Brother Liang! You are a doctor, what's wrong with my master?"
Liang Ye took out a stethoscope from Kong Minghuan, listened to He Mingchang, frowned and said, "The breathing sound is very confusing, and the heart sound is also very wrong... Let's go to the hospital?"
"Yes, go to the hospital! Brother Liang is a very famous doctor! His judgment will not be wrong!" Jiang Shiwu echoed.
He Mingzhang breathed evenly and waved his hand and said, "No need, I'm just recurring my old injury, and modern medicine can't do anything about it."
Jiang Shiwu said with a rare look of frustration: "Master... With your cultivation level, even if you have old injuries, it will not be like this. Now you can't stand it because you have given me all your cultivation level! Disciple... Disciple..."
He Mingzhang smiled disapprovingly and said, "Silly child, practice is a matter of defiance. God will not make people easily attain enlightenment! The teacher's ability to pass on you is not entirely because of you, but also because of Maoshan's future! It's all fixed and cannot blame others. What's more, the master has no resentment at all!"
He Mingzhang insisted not to go to the hospital, and Liang Ye and Jiang Shiwu could only persuade him again and again. After all, from the perspective of modern people, it is normal to go to the hospital if you are sick.
Even though this elder He had been able to cultivate himself at a high level, he is now almost the same as an ordinary old man. This was already seen by Liang Ye and the others when they entered the door.
In the end, the old man couldn't resist the two juniors, so he had to reluctantly agree and go down the mountain to go to the hospital for examination tomorrow and strive for good treatment.
Under the management of the third senior brother Cui Hongshan, a simple but not simple dinner was arranged in time. Except for the second disciple Zhou Hongzuo, who had the official sect, was unable to come for the time being, several other disciples of He Mingzhang were called back by Cui Hongshan in the name of his master, and they all had a reunion dinner together.
Among He Mingzhang's fifteen disciples, the eldest disciple unfortunately died ten years ago when assisting an official mission. The second disciple was mainly responsible for the training of the younger generation of the sect for his master, while the other disciples were either in charge of affairs or were busy with practice.
The rare reunion today makes this dinner like a family gathering. The brothers and sisters are very friendly to each other, but only Jiang Shiwu's side, except Liang Ye and Cui Hongshan who occasionally come here, always seem deserted.
He Mingzhang walked to Liang Ye with a glass of vegetarian wine and said to his apprentices: "I'm going to call you back today. First, everyone is busy on weekdays, and it's not easy to meet. Second, I want to recommend this Mr. Liang to everyone."
The old ninth prince Li Hongrui bowed to He Mingzhang deeply and said, "Master, although Mr. Liang is not a member of my race, he can be chivalrous and righteous and defeat many strong men of the Dark Moon Alliance. It is really admirable. But I, a famous and upright sect in Maoshan, insists on making friends with such a person. I don't know what the meaning is, so aren't you afraid of others criticizing me?"
He Mingzhang's face darkened: "Now the Dark Moon Alliance is becoming increasingly rampant. There are Khitan tombs in the north, the underwater Dragon Palace in the east, and there are also traces of its activities in the western border and southern Tibet. Our Dragon Kingdom Xuanmen is the time to use people. Mr. Liang sincerely serves the country. Who can criticize him?"
"Master, you passed your lifelong cultivation to the fifteenth century. None of our dozen brothers said in front of you, but Liang Ye is a zombie! Is it the turn of this ghost monster to support the storefront in the Dragon Kingdom's Xuanmen?" A handsome disciple said coldly.
This sentence aroused a lot of trouble, and someone immediately echoed: "Lao Qi is right!"
"Master, the Dark Moon Alliance is full of evil deeds, including many blood clan zombies. Liang Ye is hard to guarantee that he is not an undercover agent!"
"I thought it was inappropriate for you to invite this person into the mountain!"
"The disciple is not talented, but he is willing to sacrifice his life for the country and die for the Taoist sect! This zombie..."
"Bang!"
Suddenly the table was slapped, Liang Ye stood up suddenly, his eyes were full of fierce light, and his whole body was filled with a faint evil aura!
He said coldly: "What's wrong with the zombies? When I was born and died, you were still leisurely under the master's wings! It would be so noisy. Do you still have a master in your eyes?!"
"Cough...cough...cough! Wow—"
He Mingzhang coughed loudly, his face turned red, and then he spit out a mouthful of blood!
Cui Hongshan quickly took care of the master, but He Mingzhang pushed his hand away, then stood up tremblingly and said, "The teacher knows that everyone is not satisfied with the passing of the merits to Hongzhen that day! So no matter what the teacher does, it will be unpopular..."
The apprentices stopped talking. Seeing that the master was old and vomited blood, no one was ashamed to continue yelling, but everyone knew that opposing Liang Ye was just on the surface, and the root of everyone's anger was actually Jiang Shiwu!
He Mingzhang vomited blood stasis, his complexion calmed down a little. He continued: "Although it is reasonable to be a teacher, this matter is indeed too sudden and I have no consideration, so I am here to compensate you..."
This made the disciples scared their way and knelt down one after another, saying in unison: "The disciple is unfilial!"
The old seventh girl just said in tears: "Master! You are not wrong! The disciples are wrong! But I really don't want you to be famous all your life!"
He Mingzhang looked at the disciples kneeling on the ground, turned around and looked at Liang Ye with indifferent expressions and said, "Mr. Liang laughed... My disciples are unrestrained, and I hope Mr. Liang will be more responsible."
Liang Ye smiled politely, then looked at the people staring at him and said, "No wonder Elder He chose Jiang Shiwu as his heir... I thought Elder He did something wrong before, but now it seems that the old man is really eye-catching!"
"Zombie! What does this mean?" Lao Qi still had tears on the corners of his eyes, but his expression had become extremely cold.
Liang Ye looked at him contemptuously and said, "If you understand, you will understand. If you don't like to listen to this, then I'll say something else? Elder He's heart and lung function is very poor now. He has severe injuries to both lungs and will not heal for a long time. He needs to be surgically removed and damaged lung lobes as soon as possible. What do you think?"
"What are you doing? Are you a doctor? I'm pointing fingers here!" Lao Qi asked coldly.
Liang Ye burst out laughing: "It's really a coincidence. I'm really a doctor..."
Jiang Shiwu and Cui Hongshan carefully helped the master sit down, and then said to the senior brothers: "Brother Liang is a well-known youth medical expert in China. His words are very authoritative!"
He Mingchang looked at his apprentices who were still kneeling on the ground and sighed, "Let's go back to your seats. I called you today because I promised Mr. Liang and Hongzhen that I would go to the hospital tomorrow. Before leaving, I would take a good look at you, but I didn't expect it..."
Liang Ye played with the small wine cup in his hand and said, "Give a reunion dinner with the elderly, it's more warm. If you need to chat with me after the meal, you can find me. I will stay here tonight... It's okay to have a single chat or a group chat."
