In the Sanqing Hall, after hearing Huang Jia's words, all the Quanzhen disciples all turned their heads to look at Zhao Zhijing, who was looking proud. Their eyes were full of disbelief. At this time, no matter how stupid they were, they all realized that it turned out that Zhao Zhijing's trip was unexpected.
It's with bad intentions.
Came with bad intentions.
Qi Zhicheng, the chief disciple of Mount Shou, looked at the group of Mongolian warriors behind Huang Jia who were watching eagerly. He knew in his heart that today would be difficult. Zhongnan Mountain is located on the border of Mongolia. Logically speaking, it is under the jurisdiction of the Mongols, and this princess represents
Come sweating profusely.
If one thing is not handled properly, it may lead to the destruction of the Quanzhen Sect, but the position of the leader has too much to do with it, so how can I be the master of it?
So, thinking quickly, he took two steps forward and said respectfully: "This sudden loss of honor is really unexpected. I would like to ask the adults to serve tea in the back hall. I still need to discuss it with all the brothers."
It was not unreasonable for this man to become the chief disciple of Shou Shan. He was quite smooth in dealing with things. He opened his mouth and shut up but never mentioned Zhao Zhijing.
Huang Jia was naturally aware of this and did not rush him. He nodded and said with a smile: "No need to bother, I'll wait here."
After saying that, he walked straight to the main seat at the head of the palace, spread out his folding fan and looked at the Quanzhen disciples with ugly faces with a smile.
The sixteen great disciples looked at each other and were unsure whether to pay attention to this. At this time, Zhao Zhijing quickly stepped forward and whispered in front of them: "Since the Great Khan of Mongolia has such kind intentions, he should take it as his own."
The purpose is ours. It can be seen that our religion is becoming more and more prosperous, and even the Mongolian Khan does not dare to look down on us."
As he spoke, he looked very proud and laughed.
Hearing this, Qi Zhicheng showed a little anger on his face. He quickly raised his eyes and glanced at Huang Jia, who was sitting in the main seat, and then shook his head: "Uncle Zhao, what you said is wrong, otherwise, otherwise! Mongolia invaded our land and killed the people.
, how can we accept his decree?"
This statement was immediately echoed by all the disciples, and they all nodded in agreement.
Secretly suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhao Zhijing slowly glanced at the group of agitated Quanzhen disciples and said: "Master Qiu received Genghis Khan's edict and traveled thousands of miles to the Western Regions. Both Headmaster Yin and Senior Brother Li accompanied him.
With this precedent, why can’t we accept the edict of the Mongol Khan?”
Qi Zhicheng glanced at Zhao Zhijing, who was a little angry, and slowly shook his head: "At that time, Mongolia and the Jin Dynasty were enemies. They had not invaded our territory and had formed an alliance with the Song Dynasty. How can we compare one moment with the other?"
With a sneer on his face, Zhao Zhijing stared directly at the former and responded in a deep voice: "Don't forget, Zhongnan Mountain is located in Mongolia, and it should be under their jurisdiction. Many of our Taoist temples are also in Mongolia.
, if you refuse to accept the imperial conferment, it will be a catastrophe for the Quanzhen Sect."
"Uncle Zhao, what you said is wrong!"
Before Qi Zhicheng could respond, a young Taoist priest behind him suddenly interrupted his speech.
Looking sideways at the other party, Zhao Zhijing snorted softly through his nostrils and raised his voice slightly: "Oh~ What's wrong? But I want to ask my nephew for advice."
This man's name was Du Yushan. He didn't pay attention to Zhao Zhijing's question. He raised his head arrogantly and said: "I dare not give you advice, but I would like to ask Uncle Zhao, who is our founder Chongyang Zhenren? Uncle, your master is Quanzhen."
Who is the Seventh Son?"
Hearing this, he frowned, and Zhao Zhijing said in astonishment: "The founder and masters are great Dharma protectors, and they are masters in the Three Purities Sect."
Du Yushan nodded and said yes: "They are all upright men, patriotic and caring for the people. Each of them has gone through life and death and fought bloody battles with the Jin soldiers."
Nodding subconsciously, Zhao Zhijing couldn't help but admit: "Yes, Master Chongyang and the Seven Quanzhen Sons are famous in the world. Who doesn't admire them in the martial arts world?"
Du Yushan glanced at the latter and said word for word: "I think the real people of the previous generation who I taught were not afraid of strong attacks and were determined to save the people from fire and water. Even if the Quanzhen Sect is really in danger of disaster, we will have to do it again."
What are you afraid of? You must know that your head can be cut off, but your ambition cannot be humiliated?"
These few words can be said to be so righteous, Qi Zhicheng and more than ten disciples were shocked and moved.
After hearing this, Zhao Zhijing sneered again and again: "Master Nephew Du is the only one who is not afraid of death? Everyone else is greedy for life and afraid of death? It was difficult for the founder to start a business. How much effort did the founder and the seven teachers put in to make this sect the scale it is today?
?If it was handed over at this time, we mishandled it and destroyed the vigorous Quanzhen Sect. How can we see the founder underground? How can we explain it when the six masters turn on and off?"
What Zhao Zhijing said was actually correct, but his starting point was also for the sake of Quanzhen teaching. Several Taoists immediately echoed his words.
Seeing this, Zhao Zhijing felt slightly complacent, and then said: "The Jin people are the mortal enemies of my religion. The Mongols destroyed the Jin Kingdom, which just made my religion angry. At that time, the founder failed to achieve his righteousness and was so angry that he lived in seclusion in the tomb of the living dead.
But my spirit in heaven knows that the Jin people were defeated and their country was overthrown, so I don’t know how much I like it.”
At this time, Qi Zhicheng suddenly said: "Uncle Zhao, after the Mongols destroyed the Jin Dynasty, if they reconcile with us, the Song Dynasty, and become a brotherly state, we will naturally treat them as courtesy. But today, the Mongolian army went south in large numbers, rushing to attack Xiangyang, and the Song Dynasty Jiangshan
At a critical moment, you and I are both citizens of the Song Dynasty, how can we accept the imperial edict of an enemy country?"
After saying this, without waiting for Zhao Zhijing to respond, he turned to look at the other brothers and said loudly: "Brothers, if we receive the imperial conferment today, we will be great traitors and eternal sinners of this religion. Even if I, Qi Zhicheng, have blood splattered on my neck,
Even if I'm underground, I can't rest with you."
When he said this, his voice became fierce.
Zhao Zhijing was furious after hearing this. He threw his sleeves and robe to the side and shouted: "Qi Zhicheng, I tried to talk to you but you didn't even listen to a word! Are you trying to use force with me?!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came out, Du Yushan immediately took a step forward to protect Qi Zhicheng and said sternly: "We are just reasoning. If we want to use force, why are we afraid of you coming?"
These words were already meant to show off one's face. Seeing that both sides were insisting on their own opinions and not being inferior to each other, they became so aggressive that they would use their old fists and draw their swords to fight.
A Taoist with gray beard in the crowd suddenly waved his hands and said: "Junior brothers, if you have anything to say, please speak it up. Don't be so impatient. We are from the same roots."
Du Yushan turned away angrily: "What does Senior Brother Yi say we should do?"
The Taoist replied: "According to me, well... if a monk can be compassionate and save one more common person, that will be a blessing to God... Well... if we are affected by the Mongol Khan
With the imperial edict, we can try our best to dissuade the Mongolian monarchs and soldiers from indiscriminate killings. Didn't Master Qiu save the lives of many people because of this?"
This is a faction that advocates ennoblement.
As soon as this statement came out, many Taoists nodded in agreement: "Yes! Yes!"
"The situation today is different from the past. I traveled west with my master and saw with my own eyes the cruelty of the Mongolian soldiers who massacred the city and plundered the land. If we were ordered to surrender to Mongolia, we would be aiding the evil. Even if ten or eight lives were saved, the Mongolian power
One day, I don’t know how many tens of millions of people will die because of this.”
Zhao Zhijing looked at the other party with a sneer: "Have you ever met Genghis Khan? This time I met Kublai Khan, the fourth prince of Mongolia. This prince is polite and virtuous, and he is open-minded and generous, but how can he be cruel?"
As soon as these words came out, Du Yushan immediately said angrily: "Okay! It turns out that you were ordered by Kublai Khan to be a spy! No wonder you went up the mountain with such a big fanfare this time. I wonder why! It turns out that you want to sit on it yourself.
That position of headmaster!"
"What did you say!?"
Zhao Zhijing was immediately furious.
"Whoever speaks for the Mongols is a traitor."
Without looking at him, Du Yushan groaned angrily.
Everyone also looked at Zhao Zhijing, whose face was as red as pig liver, with strange looks and said nothing.
At this time, the fierce quarrel also attracted the attention of Huang Jia in the distance, but she saw her put away the white jade folding fan and said softly: "Abu, Atu, kill the Taoist priests who shout the loudest."
The two men immediately bowed and accepted the order, and walked slowly towards the Quanzhen disciples who were arguing fiercely with a ferocious smile.
