After Ji Jie and the others left, Sima Jing calmed down and thought about the matter. After thinking about it for a long time, he still felt uneasy, so he immediately went to the secret room to find Tuke and Sa Xuqi.
"You two, it's no longer safe for you to live here!" Sima Jing took out a bag of gold and put it on the table and said, "For safety reasons, you should leave for a while. I will send someone to contact you at any time.
Take action when the time is right!"
Tuke picked up the bag, weighed it, threw it back on the table, and said: "No reward for no merit, we haven't completed the task yet, so we won't take the money! Elder, please don't worry, we will not kill the target person, we promise
Don’t give up!”
Sima Jing was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the reason. These people who live their lives all day long attach great importance to their own reputation. They have experienced two failures. If this matter spreads, the Can Wolf Group will also
It's over, so even if they don't give them the remaining money, they will kill Sima Mu and his son.
"Okay, tonight at midnight, I will arrange for someone to take you out!" Sima Jing said, "You will live in Huangniu Town, twenty miles away for the time being, while the second master recovers from his injuries. I will send someone to tell you the situation here in time.
"
Sima Jing didn't know that after Ji Jie returned last night, he had sent three brothers to closely monitor the place and follow Tuke and Sa Xuji as soon as they walked out of the secret room.
Tuke and Saxuzhao left Sima City "smoothly" and stayed at a herdsman's house in Huangniu Town. The three brothers brought back accurate information.
The matter with the Can Wolf Group was temporarily brought to an end, and Ji Jie devoted himself wholeheartedly to this meeting of elders.
On this day, the weather is sunny.
The elders of the nine sects sat on the high platform in the arranged order, and two people were allowed to stand behind each person. Behind Sima Heng stood Sima Xueran and Ji Jie, and behind Sima Mu were his two sons-Sima Tianming and Sima Tianliang.
Behind Sima Jing were the two hall masters of the Nanshan Sect. Their brows showed the same capable look as their master.
The three sects of Shenwu Sect are Shenwu Sect, Shenlong Sect and Wuzun Sect, and the three sects of Tianfeng Sect are Tianling Sect, Fengling Sect and Yuntian Sect.
The elder of the Shenwu Sect was the oldest among the nine people. He was the first to speak: "Which sect and which sect will succeed the position of the head of the family? I think we have to speak in terms of strength. Only the strongest sect can sit in a high position, and others can be convinced.
!”
According to what this means, his Shenwu Sect is the strongest among the three sects and nine sects, and he should succeed as the head of the family.
The three sects and nine sects each have their own strengths. It is difficult to distinguish who is strong and who is weak when evaluating only from one aspect. For example, the Shenwuzong's sphere of influence is entrenched in the four countries of Yan, Zhao, Qi, and Han, and the Chengji sect is distributed in Wei.
, Qin, Zhou, and Chu, Tianfeng Sect has placed personnel in each country, and has close contacts with the royal family.
In the past, when the Sima family wanted to obtain certain information, the three sects each showed their talents and inquired from various channels. The information from all parties was gathered together and summarized to form a complete intelligence with high accuracy. Later,
The division of the family has caused the three sects to fight against each other. Although there are times of communication, it is very rare. Moreover, they are all trying their best to develop their own customer groups and regard the information they possess as treasure.
"Elder Shenwu's words make some sense!" The elder of the Yuntian sect is second only to the elder Shenwu in the family. He said in an unhurried tone: "But who is the most powerful sect and how to draw the conclusion?
!”
"Of course it is our Shenwu Sect, Shenwu Sect!" Elder Shenwu's son said loudly: "Shenwu Sect is the first sect, Shenwu Sect is the first sect among the first sects, and Elder Shenwu is the most senior person in the family, so it should be the fifth elder Shenwu.
Successor as head of the family!"
"Nonsense, does being older mean the most senior? We, Elder Yuntian, are more suitable to be the head of the family!"
"The head of the family should be succeeded by our elder Nanshan. The Nanshan sect has unified the Qin State's intelligence network, which is the strongest among the seven countries. Qin will surely dominate the world. By then, the elder Nanshan will be the founding hero. Although he despises the position of this little head of the family, but
Who else would it be than me?"
The nine elders acted very calmly, but the people behind them were all so noisy that no one would make any concessions.
"Sister Ran, the people in your Sima family are really interesting. They are all responsible people!" Ji Jie said with a smile.
Sima Xueran rolled her eyes at him and said angrily: "I didn't invite you to watch a joke. Do you have any ideas? If you have any, just tell me quickly. In such a noisy scene like now, we can't reach a conclusion through negotiation!
"
"Of course!" Ji Jie smiled, then bent down and whispered a few words in Sima Heng's ear.
Sima Heng smiled and nodded, giving a thumbs up and said: "Jun Zhaowen, what a great suggestion, look at mine next!"
The crowd became noisier and louder. On the other hand, the nine elders did not encourage the participants, but did not stop them. They completely let it go. I believe they had made such an arrangement before coming here.
Sima Heng cleared his throat and said in a voice just above the crowd: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me!"
The scene suddenly became silent, and everyone returned to their seats. Sima Heng stood up and said: "Noisy is not the answer, and showing off one's words is not the way. I have a suggestion, please listen to it!"
"I support Elder Beiyuan's suggestion!" Nanshan Elder Sima Jing was eager to express his attitude before he could say it.
Sima Heng smiled and nodded, and then said: "I have no objection to the elder of the strongest group inheriting the position of head of the family, but who is the strongest? I believe everyone thinks they are the strongest, so we need facts.
Proof requires a fact that everyone is convinced of! I suggest that our three sects each send their strongest disciples to compete. Whichever sect wins will be the strongest one, and then the three sects of this sect will conduct internal competitions.
Let’s compete and choose the strongest faction, what do you think?”
"I agree with Elder Beiyuan's proposal!" Elder Youlin Sima Mu raised his right hand.
In this way, the three sects of Chengji Sect stood together, and the elders of the other six sects also felt that this was a pertinent method and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, then we should discuss how to compete!" Sima Heng stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation and said, "Elders, please speak freely and let's discuss it together!"
The Shenwu sect first proposed martial arts because everyone was living in troubled times. Without strong martial arts as a foundation, how could a person remain invincible?
The Tianling Sect proposed competitions in riding and shooting for the same reason as the Shenwu Sect.
The proposals of these two factions represent the opinions of the sect. The Shenwu Sect is good at martial arts, and the Tianfeng Sect is good at riding, shooting, and assassination. These are their strengths.
Cheng Jizong proposed a civil war on the grounds that those who have no martial arts skills are often reckless, and they must have a shrewd mind to become a handsome man. The position of head of the family is particularly important, and only a wise man is qualified to inherit it.
The three opinions were at loggerheads. In the end, the nine elders unanimously passed three games to determine the outcome. Each of the three sects sent three people. The one who won three games would be the first sect of the Sima family!
