Chapter 1174 Ignition

Zhai Pingqing's dinner ended unhappy because of Xu Chunliang's disturbance. On the way back, Zhai Pingqing got off the car and asked the driver to send Qin Yujiao back first.

Autumn is getting stronger, the wind is blowing at night, and fallen leaves are flying everywhere. Zhai Pingqing habitually turns up his collar and walks towards Zhushan Zen Temple.

Zhuzhushan Zen Monastery is a newly built Buddhist temple. The incense is not very prosperous at ordinary times. At night, the front door is deserted, and the Nuo Da Zen Monastery is deserted.

Zhai Pingqing came to the mountain gate and knocked on the door knocker. After a while, someone came and opened the side door.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged monk. When he saw Zhai Pingqing, he immediately joined him respectfully. Zhai Pingqing donated a lot of money to this place.

Zhai Pingqing asked: "Is Master here?"

The middle-aged monk said respectfully: "Donor Zhai, please come with me."

Zhai Pingqing followed the middle-aged monk to the monk's dormitory area. He knew the layout of the place very well. Currently, there were only five monks here, and one of them came to help.

The middle-aged monk came to the lighted meditation room and knocked on the door. After hearing the response, he excused himself to Zhai Pingqing Heshi.

Zhai Pingqing opened the door and walked in. Inside, an old man and an old monk sat cross-legged opposite each other.

It was in the capital that the old monk attacked Xia Houzun to avenge his nephew Yan Hong, but his martial arts skills were revoked. The old man was Meng Huaiyi, one of the four elders of the tired sect.

At that time, Meng Huaiyi attacked Yuan Rong in order to rescue the sect leader. He beat Yuan Rong until he vomited blood on the spot. Everyone thought that Meng Huaiyi had abolished Yuan Rong's martial arts. However, only the person involved knew the real story. Meng Huaiyi didn't even have 50% of his strength when he took action. , before he hit Yuanrong, Yuanrong had already been injured by Xiahou Zun, so this debt was really not on his head, otherwise they would not be able to sit together.

Zhai Pingqing's arrival did not arouse any reaction from Yuanrong. Meng Huaiyi said with a smile: "I thought Mr. Zhai would never see us poor friends."

Zhai Pingqing said: "How can Elder Meng say this? Is it possible that my younger brother is being negligent?"

Meng Huaiyi said: "Mr. Zhai is very busy with his business and has many things to do every day. It is already very valuable that he can come and see us despite his busy schedule. How can we feel that we are being neglected?"

Zhai Pingqing knew the temperament of the old guy Meng Huaiyi very well. He always thought that he was the oldest among the four elders, but the reality was that he was the worst among the four elders. Not to mention himself and Huang Wanglin, even Zha Youliang was Much stronger than him.

Meng Huaiyi couldn't blame others. Times have changed now. Who still engages in those despicable businesses? Only his main business is still purchasing expired drugs, manufacturing counterfeit drugs, and testing the edges of the law all day long.

If it weren't for Meng Huaiyi's current value, Zhai Pingqing would disdain to associate with such people, and the same goes for Yuanrong, who can no longer keep up with the trend of the times and will soon be completely eliminated.

However, these two people still have a certain degree of influence within Weimen, and Zhai Pingqing still needs to do some superficial work to form an alliance with them.

Yuan Rong, who had been silent all this time, sighed and said: "Elder Zhai also has his own difficulties, so there is no need to force Elder Meng."

Zhai Pingqing sat down cross-legged around the small square table. Yuanrong poured him a cup of tea, and naturally smelled the alcohol on his body.

Zhai Pingqing asked: "Master, are you feeling better?"

Yuanrong said: "Thanks to Elder Zhai's care, although the poor monk's body has recovered, he has become a disabled person."

Meng Huaiyi said: "It's not that Xia Houzun is ruthless. He has not shown any affection to you and him for so many years."

Yuan Rong said sadly: "Wu Yuanyi, who saved his life, was also kicked out of his family by him? It's pity that my nephew is alive and dead but not his body."

Meng Huaiyi said: "Xiahou Zun is rebellious, regardless of the interests of the family, and does not hesitate to harm his brothers for his own selfishness. How can we just sit back and watch." After he finished speaking, he turned his attention to Zhai Pingqing: "Elder Zhai, what do you think we should do? "

Zhai Pingqing said: "He now wants to pass on the position of sect leader to his daughter. If Xiahou Mulan passes the examination of the six skills of the tired sect, we have nothing to say and can only treat her as the master."

Meng Huaiyi snorted coldly and said: "How can the six skills of fatigue be so easy to master? You think too highly of Xiahou Mulan."

Zhai Pingqing said: "Everything has exceptions. If Xiahou Zun thinks it is impossible, he will not accept the conditions of the assessment."

Yuan Rong nodded and said, "That's right, Xia Houzun rarely does anything he's not sure about."

Meng Huaiyi said: "So what, we have put a tight curse on Xiahou Mulan. I don't believe she can stay unmarried for the rest of her life."

Zhai Pingqing said: "The tightening curse is just a formality. Once Xiahou Mulan becomes the sect leader, she can naturally abandon it."

Yuan Rong said: "If the tired door fell into the hands of a woman, wouldn't it be the laughing stock of others?"

Meng Huaiyi said: "You can't say that, the Orchid Gate is not the same as falling into the hands of women."

Zhai Pingqing frowned in displeasure. He still had a wait-and-see attitude towards Meng Huaiyi. Meng Huaiyi was an old fox. In fact, he didn't care who was the head of the sect. What he really cared about was his own interests, but harmony. Mulan's opposition to Xiahou Mulan was more determined. Yuanrong's nephew Yan Hong should have died in the hands of Xiahou Zun. Even though Yuanrong had become a monk, he regarded Yan Hong as his son. He must be responsible for this debt. Asked for.

Zhai Pingqing said: "I originally wanted to have a good talk with the sect master, but now he has lost sight of the dragon. Since he appeared in the capital, he has lost contact with the outside world."

Meng Huaiyi sneered: "He is so comfortable as the leader of the sect. In the past few years, he simply handed over the affairs of the sect to his daughter because of seclusion. He did not fulfill his responsibilities as the leader of the sect. If he had not shown up in the capital last time, I would have thought he was dead."

Yuan Rong said: "In fact, the Pi Sect has been managed by his daughter for a long time."

Zhai Pingqing said: "If it falls into the hands of Xiahou Mulan, it will be fine. At least she is the descendant of the sect leader. But there is one person we have to guard against."

Meng Huaiyi whispered: "Xu Chunliang?"

Zhai Pingqing nodded and said: "According to my knowledge According to the situation, the boy surnamed Xu and Xiahou Mulan have a very close relationship. Not only do they support each other in their careers, they may also be lovers in private. "

Meng Huaiyi smiled maliciously and said, "Maybe they have slept with each other a long time ago. Damn it, doesn't the sect leader know that he is a cheap father-in-law?"

The other two did not laugh. Yuanrong said, "As far as I know, my nephew's disappearance is also related to Xu Chunliang."

Zhai Pingqing said, "Maybe this person is the culprit who killed your nephew."

Yuanrong clenched his fists and seemed to agree with Zhai Pingqing's statement.

Meng Huaiyi said: "That Xu boy is so young, how could he be so brave? No way, he is in the system."

Zhai Pingqing laughed and said: "In the system, you forgot about Juemen, their methods of doing things are even more cruel than the Five Poison Sect."

Yuan Rong gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, there are many people who are hypocritical and beastly."

Zhai Pingqing said: "If Xiahou Mulan successfully becomes the leader of the sect, it means that our entire Pimen will fall into the hands of Xu Chunliang in the future."

Meng Huaiyi said: "Why? How can he control Pimen? Xiahou Mulan Such a smart woman shouldn't be so confused. "

Zhai Pingqing said: "Once a woman is in love, she can't act according to common sense."

Meng Huaiyi said: "Elder Zhai, what do you think we should do?"

Zhai Pingqing said: "Power is a double-edged sword. If used well, it can be invincible, but if used poorly, it will hurt yourself. If something happens to the Pimen, as the acting leader of the Pimen, it is natural for Xiahou Mulan to come out to put out the fire. If she can't put out the fire..."

Zhai Pingqing deliberately didn't finish this sentence, and looked at Meng Huaiyi and Yuanrong respectively.

Meng Huaiyi said: "Then this fire will burn herself first."

Yuanrong said: "But how should this fire be set?"

Zhai Pingqing said: "Not long ago, a counterfeit and inferior medicinal material incident broke out in Dongzhou, and the incident also involved the Mulan Group."

Meng Huaiyi nodded and said: "I know about this, but it turned out that it had nothing to do with the Mulan Group."

Zhai Pingqing said: "This incident inspired me. How did the Mulan Group start? Others don't know, but I know it very well. The leader kicked Wu Yuanyi out. He forgot how Wu Yuanyi helped him back then. Wu Yuanyi held He has too many secrets. Some things will leave a memory once you have done them, and you can't just wash them away if you want to. "

Meng Huaiyi reminded: "Mulan Group is now a key enterprise supported by the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It may not be easy to bring them down. "

Zhai Pingqing laughed and said: "Who said we should deal with Mulan Group? The brothers of the Pimen are of the same blood. When one side is in trouble, all sides will support it. As the leader of the sect, it is even more obligatory. If the brothers of the Pimen are in trouble, Xiahou father and daughter will sit and watch, which proves that they are not worthy of their position. If they help, they will unknowingly get into trouble. "

Meng Huaiyi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood.

Yuanrong said: "I seem to understand where to start the fire. "

Cao Bingyi, president of Shennong Group, was taken away by the police on the first day of November. The reason was that two processing plants under Shennong Group were found to have a large amount of banned medicinal materials in stock during a surprise inspection, and ingredients strictly prohibited by the state were found in many batches of Chinese medicine slices produced by Shennong Group.

This was a disaster for Cao Bingyi. After he changed his mind and supported Xiahou Mulan, he finally recovered. The medical administration department relaxed its supervision on him, and Shennong Group was included in the list of additional support from the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. When everything was going in a good direction, who would have thought that this would happen?

Cao Bingyi's first reaction was that he had made a mistake, but when the regulatory department produced the corresponding test report, Cao Bingyi's heart sank to the bottom. If the charges were proven, he would inevitably go to jail.

He stated that he did not know about it, and there must be something wrong in some link of production.

The police came prepared this time and took out evidence of his illegal purchase and collection of medicinal materials in the past, including the record of transactions with Wu Yuanyi.

Wu Yuanyi not only did transactions with Shennong Group, he was also an important figure in the Pimen in the past. Even the leader Xiahou Zun had to give him some face, and others could not refuse to buy it.
