Chapter 651 Persuading the elders
Wu Xing and Wei Yan came to Xingjianmen. Although there were some misunderstandings with the people from Xingjianmen, fortunately Li Tianhao showed up in time, and then Wei Yan explained his purpose to him, thus avoiding the misunderstanding from expanding.
The fifth line didn't know Li Tianhao. At first, he thought he was the head of Ou Zhen, but then he learned that it was Mr. Wei Jian, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
Because he had long heard that Mr. Wei Jian had left the Star Sword Sect for many years and had not come back for a long time. But now they just met, which was really surprising.
Since Li Tianhao knew that the fifth line was about the Japanese pirates and was entrusted by Ren Xiaoyao to represent Xiaoyaomen, he naturally treated him with courtesy.
"What, Master Ou is not in the mountains?" After hearing the news, the fifth line inevitably asked in surprise.
"Isn't it true that no one is in charge of the matters entrusted by the Pavilion Master?" Wei Yan also asked.
"Don't worry, you two, this matter is of great importance. Xingjian Sect will definitely not sit idly by. You two will stay at Xingjian Sect for now. Let me discuss it with the elders and then I will answer you." Li Tianhao explained.
"Okay then!" Wu Xing and Wei Yan had no choice but to agree, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
After Li Tianhao learned the news, he couldn't sleep, so he came to Nanxing Gate again overnight to discuss with Nangong Feiying.
"Brother Nangong, since the head brother can't take charge of this matter, I want to hear your thoughts." Li Tianhao asked after telling Nangong Feiying about the matter.
"Fighting against Japanese pirates is not something that happens overnight, but is a long-term thing. Ren Xiaoyao has fought against Japanese pirates many times, but he can't get rid of the root cause. We haven't been involved in Jianghu affairs for a long time. If we get involved now, I'm afraid it will be a little uncomfortable.
OK!" Nangong Feiying said hesitantly.
"But the situation is serious and the Jiangnan martial arts world is in danger. Should we, the Jiangbei martial arts people, just sit back and do nothing?" Li Tianhao was obviously a little anxious.
"I understand what you mean. It's just that our sect's internal affairs have not been handled well at the moment, so how can we fight against foreign enemies? You have also seen that just one Mu Tengzuo has thrown the Star Sword Sect into darkness. If we are with
If the Xiaoyaomen fight against the Japanese pirates together, I'm afraid it will cause even greater trouble." Nangong Feiying had heard what Li Tianhao meant, but he was still uneasy.
"There must be trouble. But Brother Nangong, think about it, why has Ren Xiaoyao been able to suppress our Xingjian Sect all these years? The first reason is that we are in seclusion and are blindly arrogant; the second reason is that Ren Xiaoyao has been taking advantage of the Japanese pirates.
, came to give orders to the martial arts circles in the south and north of the Yangtze River. These martial arts people think that this is a righteous act, so they are willing to listen to his orders." Li Tianhao continued to persuade Nangong Feiying.
"Actually, I don't have any objections. I'm just afraid that other elders may not agree." Nangong Feiying had already relaxed, but he told a fact.
Most of the elders in the Star Sword Sect are as conservative as Nangong Feiying, so they really may not agree.
The two discussed for a long time, but could not make a decision. After all, they alone could not mobilize all the disciples of the Star Sword Sect, and Ou Zhen could not handle affairs.
Early the next morning, Nangong Feiying and Li Tianhao summoned the elders to discuss the matter. Suddenly, just like the previous day, they were immediately divided into two groups, and they were at loggerheads for a while.
The Li family advocated not supporting the fight against Japanese pirates; while the Li family naturally supported the attitude; Oujia Oke remained neutral and did not express his attitude at all; Nangong Feiying was hesitant, thinking that fighting against Japanese pirates would be beneficial to Xingjianmen for one moment, and then again for another moment.
They think the risk is too great. In short, people of their age are afraid of taking risks.
Finally, Li Tianhao became anxious, so he stood up and asked loudly: "I would like to ask all the elders, we are all over fifty years old. Let's look back and think about what we have done in this life? After we die, there are
Who will remember us? I am afraid that our descendants may not be able to remember us after a long time. Why is this?"
Everyone was speechless at Li Tianhao's words and didn't know how to answer at all.
Indeed, except for Li Tianhao, these old people have never been down the mountain, and those who have been down the mountain have never traveled far. In their lives, apart from practicing in Xingjian Mountain, they have actually done nothing.
Nothing was done.
"Why doesn't anyone remember us? It's because we didn't do anything. Compare Xiaoyaomen again. This year alone, we first defeated the Poisonous Beast Gorge in the capital, and then contacted the martial arts people to fight against the Japanese pirates. These were all major events that caused a sensation in the martial arts community.
The reason why Xiaoyaomen has become one of the four major families in the world is because it does great things. It is remembered by people in the martial arts world, and all the heroes in the martial arts world believe in them. Look at us again, practicing swordsmanship every day
How are the Qing cultivators, cultivating fields and flowers, any different from the villagers in the mountains? Our fight against the Japanese pirates is not to participate in a martial arts battle, nor for ourselves, but for justice, for the people in the south and north of the Yangtze River, so that they will no longer be harassed by the Japanese pirates
"Ren Xiaoyao's subordinates now only have Tian Shilie and Huang Yuefeng. There are so many of us, but we are still hesitant and undecided. Is it possible that our group is not as good as the three people from Xiaoyao Sect?" Li Tianhao Jicuo said.
Li Tianhao's words immediately rendered all the elders speechless. Especially when he said that they were not as good as the three Xiaoyao Sect members, their vanity was immediately aroused and they all expressed their intention to send disciples to fight against the Japanese pirates.
Upon seeing this, Nangong Feiying finally nodded with satisfaction. Originally, it was not that he did not support Li Tianhao, he was just afraid that Li Tianhao could not convince all the elders in the Elders' House. Nangong Feiying was a strict person. If Li Tianhao could not name the other elders, then
There was nothing he could do.
The elders finally agreed to join forces with Xiaoyaomen to deal with Japanese pirates at sea.
"But, should we wait until the head brother comes back?" Li Bu suddenly mentioned that they don't know Ou Zhen's true situation yet, and Nangong Feiying and Li Tianhao have no plans to tell them yet.
"I will find a way to inform the head brother, I think he will agree." Before Li Tianhao could speak, Nangong Feiying said first.
Everyone thought that since Nangong Feiying could find Li Tianhao who had been away for many years, he probably knew the whereabouts of the head brother, so they did not ask any more questions. Only Ouke's expression flickered slightly, but then he
It returned to its original state.
"Okay then! Since Brother Nangong is so confident, let's first send someone to Xiaoyaomen to meet Ren Xiaoyao and see what specific ideas he has." Li Bu said.
"I think it's okay, let Cheng'er and Hai Qing go!" Nangong Feiying suggested.
