The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

Entering the main hall, I saw Yue Buqun sitting upright on the main seat with a stern look on his face. Master's wife Ning Zhongze sat beside him. Although she didn't say much, her eyes showed helplessness. She glanced at her husband from time to time, as if she wanted to persuade him but didn't know where to start.

Several fellow apprentices below stood obediently, not daring to make a sound.

The Huashan Sect is in a difficult situation right now. Among the elders in the sect, only Yue Buqun and his wife are left struggling to keep the sect going. There are only eight disciples, including Yue Lingshan.

Yue Buqun was eager to make Huashan prosperous, and he worked tirelessly day and night for this purpose. His obsession led him to get into a dead end, and he even thought of learning the Exorcism Sword in an attempt to turn the tide.

Linghu Chong stood in the hall and saw Yue Lingshan follow Yi Huawei in. His eyes instantly dimmed and became obscure, but he still nodded at them reluctantly.

Yi Huawei stepped forward steadily, folded his hands, bowed politely, and said in a clear voice: "Master, the disciple is here."

Yue Buqun lowered his head slightly, his gaze lingering on Yi Huawei for a moment. Yi Huawei had just mastered the Zixia magic skill, and his aura had quietly changed. Yue Buqun noticed it, but had no intention of exploring it. He just nodded slightly and motioned for him to stand aside.

Yi Huawei glanced at his fellow disciples, smiled gently at Linghu Chong, and then stood at the side of Yue Buqun's right hand with his hands hanging down.

Yue Buqun turned his head and looked at Linghu Chong, Lu Dayou and Gao Genming, and asked in a flat tone:
"Have you completed the task that the master sent you three out to do?"

Linghu Chong hurriedly cupped his hands and responded, "Master, everything has been done!"

Yue Buqun nodded slightly again, his face calm, and then asked: "Did you cause any trouble along the way?"

Linghu Chong paused for a moment before answering, "...Master, I followed your instructions. Ignored all the trivial matters along the way and did not expect to see many places. Finally, I had a safe journey."

"Humph~"

Yue Buqun snorted from his nose: "Then my teachings are well worth it."

As he spoke, he slowly pulled out a letter from his sleeve, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, staring directly at Linghu Chong: "But what does this letter mean?"

Linghu Chong looked confused: "Letter?"

Yue Buqun snorted again: "Take it and see for yourself!"

Linghu Chong did not dare to hesitate. He took a step forward, took the letter steadily with both hands, unfolded it and took a look. His face turned pale instantly.

"Humph!"

Yue Buqun's eyes were burning with anger: "This letter was written by the head of Qingcheng Sect, Yu Canghai. You don't want to tell Master that such a head of the sect would make false accusations against you out of nothing, do you?"

"Disciple, I don't dare!"

Linghu Chong's knees went weak and he knelt down with a thud. Seeing this, Lu Dayou and Gao Genming also hurriedly knelt down and admitted their mistakes.

“Is this true?!” Yue Buqun looked at Gao Genming fiercely: “Genming, how did this disaster happen? Tell me!”

Gao Genming was so frightened that his face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time: "Master...disciple...disciple..."

Linghu Chong shouted, "Master, I alone caused this disaster! If you want to punish me, just punish me alone!"

"Humph,"

Yue Buqun said coldly: "You, the eldest brother, are quite loyal!"

Ning Zhongze quickly stood up and tried to persuade him: "Brother, Chong'er has admitted his mistake, so let it go."

Yue Buqun turned his head and glared at her fiercely: "Humph! This is all your fault for not disciplining them properly! Loving mothers often spoil their children!"

"..."

Seeing her husband so angry, Ning Zhongze could only keep silent and turn her gaze to Yi Huawei.

"Master,"

Seeing the look in Master's wife's eyes, Yi Huawei sighed inwardly, stepped forward and saluted, and said slowly: "Although Senior Brother has a somewhat impatient personality, he is not a bully. Master, you also know this. Could there be... some misunderstanding?"

"Is there any misunderstanding?"

Yue Buqun glanced at Yi Huawei, his tone softened a little, and he sat back in his seat: "I was eating well in the inn, and I didn't provoke him, but he spoke rudely, and that's why we started fighting."

"Haha~, that means Senior Brother won the fight."

Yi Huawei raised his lips and said with a smile: "If the eldest brother lost the fight, he wouldn't be so shameless as to go and complain like a child."

"You, don't speak for him!"

Yue Buqun's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible smile, but then his face turned stern again: "With such an impetuous personality like him, he will suffer a great loss sooner or later."

Listening to Yi Huawei's words, Linghu Chong became excited and agreed with a grin, "That's right. They call themselves the 'Four Beauties of Qingcheng'. I think they are just the four beasts of Qingcheng. They are eating in the inn with such an arrogant look. I really can't stand it. How can they look like a noble family? They only know how to bully the weak."

"Nonsense!"

Yue Buqun was immediately enraged, his voice rose a few notches, his eyes full of annoyance: "If others hear what you said, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble. When will you learn to be as steady as Wei'er?"

"Big Brother has a straightforward personality and sees things that are not fair to the public. This is normal."

Yi Huawei had a faint smile on his face and said, "Master often taught us that our Huashan Sect, as one of the Five Great Sword Sects, shoulders the justice of the martial arts world. The first rule of the sect clearly states that we should help the needy and the needy. We should uphold the concept of helping the weak and punishing the strong, and we should help those who are injustice." Having said this, Yi Huawei paused, and seeing that Yue Buqun's face was not looking good, he slowly turned his head to look at Linghu Chong, his expression becoming serious:
"Big Brother, you can't stand others bullying the weak. Your original intention is absolutely right, but your approach is really inappropriate. We in the Five Mountains Sword Sect usually help and support each other. In front of outsiders, we should put on an attitude of being of the same blood. You rashly clashed with the Qingcheng Sect this time. If those with ulterior motives take advantage of it and take the opportunity to sow discord between the Five Mountains Sword Sect and other sects, have you ever thought about the consequences?"

Yi Huawei took a step forward and looked straight at Linghu Chong:
"Big Brother, think about it. As disciples of Huashan, no matter where we go, our every move is related to the reputation of the sect. If it was during the heyday of Huashan Sect, a little friction might not be a big deal, but now we are in a difficult period and we must act with caution. Qingcheng Sect is a famous and upright sect like us. Although there are some minor frictions and disagreements between the two sects, we should not make enemies so rashly."

As he spoke, Yi Huawei's tone became more serious: "When traveling in the martial arts world, you can't just act on your own will. The Qingcheng Sect has been in the martial arts world for many years and has its own set of rules and profound heritage. Even if some of the disciples behave a little arrogantly, we can't accuse the entire sect of bullying the weak all at once."

Just as Linghu Chong was about to open his mouth to defend himself, Yi Huawei raised his hand to gently stop him, and then said:

"We in Huashan Sect have always attached great importance to our style and reputation. Every move of our sect members is under the eyes of the people in the martial arts world. It's okay for you to dislike the Four Beauties of Qingcheng, but before you take action, have you ever seriously thought about what kind of trouble this will bring to our sect? When we are outside, we represent not only ourselves, but the entire Huashan Sect."

Linghu Chong gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said no more.

Yi Huawei continued, "Things in the martial arts world are more complicated than you can imagine. It's not easy to distinguish right from wrong. Sometimes, some things seem to be righteous at first glance, but if they are handled incorrectly, they will cause even greater chaos. When we take action, we must have a legitimate reason and evidence, and we must not just seek temporary pleasure. Take this time for example. We felt great at the moment after the fight, but now the leader of the Qingcheng Sect has sent a letter to question us. How much energy will our Huashan Sect have to spend to deal with it?"

Yi Huawei took a breath and continued, "Of course, our Huashan Sect is not afraid of the Qingcheng Sect. If they hurt people for no reason, then we are in the right. No matter where we go, they are in the wrong. But this time, just because the Qingcheng disciples spoke disrespectfully to the innkeeper, you beat him up. Now, what was originally reasonable has become unreasonable.

Also, I remember that when my eldest brother went out, he didn't have much money. You broke the tables and chairs of the store, affecting their business. Did you compensate them?"

"Ah?" Linghu Chong widened his eyes and was stunned.

Yi Huawei sighed softly: "Big Brother, believe it or not, the person that guy hates the most right now is most likely you. The store's business has suffered losses, and he doesn't dare to ask you for an explanation, let alone cause trouble for the Qingcheng Sect. In the end, the only one who will suffer is that guy."

Yue Buqun's tense expression relaxed a lot after hearing what Yi Huawei said. He nodded slightly, showing some approval in his eyes, and turned to look at Ning Zhongze. Ning Zhongze was also pleased, and gently patted Yue Buqun's arm, whispering: "Wei'er is a thoughtful child, and what he said makes sense. Chong'er can listen to him, and he will be less reckless in the future."

Yue Buqun snorted lightly as a response, but there was a bit more appreciation in the look he gave Yi Huawei.

Yue Lingshan, standing aside, looked at Yi Huawei with sparkling eyes and full of admiration. She couldn't help but interrupt him and said, "Second Senior Brother is absolutely right. Senior Brother is just too impulsive. If he had listened to Second Senior Brother earlier, he wouldn't have caused so many problems."

The group of fellow apprentices around him nodded and started to discuss quietly. Some said, "Second Senior Brother is so thoughtful. I didn't even think of that." Some echoed, "Yeah, I have to learn from Second Senior Brother when I go out next time."

Linghu Chong's face was filled with guilt, and he bowed deeply to Yue Buqun:
"Master, it's all my fault that I'm useless and keep causing trouble outside. I really failed to live up to your teachings. Please punish me severely!"

"What is the original intention of those of us who practice martial arts? It is to strengthen our bodies and give ourselves the power to protect ourselves, not to go out and cause trouble! The world is vast, and there are many talented people. There is always someone better than you. If you act rashly like this, you will suffer a great loss sooner or later."

Yue Buqun coughed lightly, and the hall, which was originally filled with some small discussions, instantly became quiet. He first glanced at Yi Huawei with satisfaction, and then his gaze returned to Linghu Chong. His eyes flickered a few times before he slowly spoke:
"Wei'er has interceded for you this time, and considering that you have a good heart, I will spare you the beating this time. However, you are the one who caused the disaster, so you must shoulder the responsibility. You must go to the Qingcheng Sect and apologize."

"ah?…"

Upon hearing this, Linghu Chong immediately became anxious and raised his voice unconsciously: "Master, it was the Qingcheng Sect's disciples who were wrong this time! They were so arrogant in the inn and treated the waiters with disrespect. I couldn't stand it, so I took action."

Yue Buqun waved his hand impatiently, his tone firm and unquestionable: "You don't need to say anything more, Master tells you to go, so you have to go!"

"Brother, the Qingcheng Sect is a long way from Huashan..." Ning Zhongze looked distressed and advised softly, "It seems a bit inappropriate to let Chong'er go alone. If something unexpected happens along the way, how can he handle it alone?"

Yue Buqun thought for a moment and looked at Yi Huawei: "Then let Wei'er go with him! Wei'er is steady and with him, there will be fewer twists and turns. Should you be relieved now?"

"Ah?!" Yue Lingshan hurriedly said, "Dad, I want to go too!"

As he spoke, he trotted over to his father, grabbed Yue Buqun's sleeve and shook it gently, his eyes full of anticipation and eagerness.

"no!"

Yue Buqun refused outright: "This time we are not going to travel, we are going to apologize to them. If you go with us, you will only cause trouble."

Yue Lingshan refused to give in and started to act like a spoiled child: "Dad, I won't cause any more trouble. The eldest brother got into trouble, and the second brother wants to go and help, and I want to help as well. I can also take care of their food and daily life along the way. If there are any female relatives in the Qingcheng Sect, it will be more convenient for me to deal with them. Please agree to me."

Yue Buqun looked hesitant. Before he could speak, Linghu Chong chimed in, "Master, let Junior Sister come with you. With her around, the journey will be more lively and not too boring. Besides, Junior Sister is smart, and maybe she can help you at a critical moment."

Looking at Yue Lingshan's eyes, Yi Huawei nodded slightly: "Master, what Junior Sister said makes some sense."

Yue Buqun sighed helplessly: "Shan'er, you must be obedient and not act capriciously. When you go to Qingcheng Sect, the first thing you need to do is to calm down the situation. Follow your Second Senior Brother's arrangements. If you dare to cause trouble, I will not let you off easily when you return."

Yue Lingshan's eyes lit up and she nodded hurriedly: "Dad, don't worry, I promise to be a good boy!"

After getting Yue Buqun's approval, everyone started to discuss the itinerary. Yi Huawei spoke first: "Master, we can't just go there rashly. We have to make some preparations first. The Qingcheng Sect is well-known in the martial arts world. We need to prepare a gift to show our sincerity. In addition, we need to write a sincere letter of apology, and have the eldest brother hand in hand to show our attitude."

Yue Buqun nodded in agreement: "Wei'er, you have thought it through. I will leave these matters to you. Leave as soon as possible, go early and come back early, and don't cause any more trouble."

Linghu Chong patted his chest and said, "Master, rest assured. I will never let anything happen to my junior brothers and sisters!"

"………Just take care of yourself and I'll be thankful!"

Yue Buqun sighed and looked at Linghu Chong: "I know your temper best, but you are going there to apologize for your crime. We must be harmonious, understand?"

Linghu Chong nodded reluctantly: "Yes, Master!"

Ning Zhongze stood up and walked to Linghu Chong, admonishing him, "If they are being rude to you or have a verbal conflict with you, remember to be patient and consider the overall situation."

Seeing the worried look in Master's wife's eyes, Linghu Chong nodded vigorously: "I will follow Master and Master's wife's teachings and will not cause trouble again!"
