Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 471: Si Chong: My Senior Brother is Just Jealous of You
"No, Uncle Master, when did you become so concerned about me and my master?"

He Songling looked down at Chong with suspicion, and felt uncomfortable with the old man.

"Go to hell, who cares about you two, you two are both monsters." Si Chong said unhappily, "The problem is that you two did this in the square, do you know how much damage it will cause to ordinary people like us from the Trinity Sect?"

"What kind of harm is that? We didn't fight, and my master is not that kind of person. How could he vent his anger on you?" He Songling disagreed.

"Of course your master wouldn't take his anger out on others subjectively. The problem is the matter you raised..."

Si Chong thought about the proposals of the two men just now, and the muscles on his face twitched: "Resisting the Japanese is a good thing, but the problem is that going down the mountain cannot be based on voluntary will. You must have some ability to go down the mountain. As the head of the sect, your master must be responsible for the reputation of the Trinity Sect and the safety of the disciples outside."

"That's right, so what?"

"What the hell, if there is an assessment, there must be standards. Who sets the standards? Loose or strict? What if someone who wants to serve the country can't go down, and someone who wants to seek peace is very strong? How will others look at him, and how will they look at the person who wants to go down the mountain? Do you want to force people to die, or do you want to force people to practice until they die?"

As expected, Si Chong was the one who saw that something was wrong with San Chong at the first sight. He was a little bit lacking in magnanimity as the sect leader, but he was definitely a good hand as the deputy sect leader, in charge of the daily life and direction of the sect. In an instant, he saw the possible consequences behind He Songling's proposal.

"Tell me, this is not called harm. This has caused great harm both physically and mentally."

"Of course we can't let people who want to live in peace go and die like this. I am firmly against the bald man's 'conscripting men'."

Not all members of the Sanyi Sect are hot-blooded people. Just like in the original novel, after Si Chong Chengzhen died, Shui Yun Changqing persuaded people to quit twice, and indeed many people left the mountain. In this regard, the Sanyi Sect did a good job, without moral kidnapping and forcing people to die.

This was the case when facing Quan Xing, and it was even more important when facing the Japanese soldiers. After all, the probability of casualties was not at the same level. In his previous life, He Songling saw some people cursing on the street, saying that no one from the Sanyi Sect had gone down the mountain to fight against the Japanese.

First of all, this world is not the whole picture. Is there anything that cannot be fully presented in the comics? If we don’t talk about those disabled seniors in the back mountain, who would know that Zuo Ruotong is more than just a peer of Chong? At most, compared with Longhu Mountain, fewer people come down from the Sanyi Sect.

But this is not a crime, just like Zuo Ruotong said, they are not soldiers or politicians, just ordinary people who have practiced martial arts, and it is not a crime to want to live in peace. You should know that in the future civil war, our army counted the crimes of the bald troops, and there was always the item of "conscripting able-bodied men".

He Songling had personally seen the casualties on the battlefield, and had also seen the bald man's men conscripting able-bodied men. That kind of tragic scene was beyond the imagination of people in the peaceful years. So He Songling agreed with Si Chong's first point.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Uncle Master, you are right. Later on, you should find Zhang Mazi's people and work out a set of practical standards. You must not use the name of morality to force people to go to the battlefield. But as for the other thing..." He Songling turned his head and looked at his fellow disciples behind him. He actually had a headache because there was still a lot to do. Fortunately, he would not do it himself. Such a large enterprise could be left to professionals.

"I have said it long ago. In our sect, from my master to you, my uncle, to my senior brother, to Senior Brother Shuiyun, and Junior Brother Changqing, it is all like this. The people they teach are too kind, too simple, too naive, and too confused. I understand that you want to create a good space for the children. You think that people who practice Xuan should follow nature and not be too tense or force things to happen.

But the world is like this, and every sect is full of hooligans. The master will die one day, and it is impossible for him to protect the Sanyi Sect forever. When the time comes, what kind of pain will the Sanyi Sect suddenly suffer when it is exposed in this dark forest? It is unknown whether they can survive.

So I have always advocated a little bit of realistic education. You see, sects like Longhu Mountain will let their disciples go down the mountain to gain experience, but how many of our sects have ever gone out? When you go out with the white face of the third level of Nisheng, as soon as you mention Zuo Rutong's name, the other party will give you some face. What difference does it make whether you go down the mountain or not?

I personally am firmly against "involution". Believe me, I have experienced that era. Everyone was drained of their energy and spirit, suffering, numb, like the walking dead. But now the country is in this situation, and our family is in this moral state. What should we do if we really get out?

Appropriate tension is beneficial to the development of the sect and fellow apprentices. I am from Fujian, and you should have heard that there are many fishermen along the coast, and many deep-sea fish die soon after being caught. Later, the fishermen put a few catfish in the catch, and the catfish that swims endlessly drive the vitality of the catch, and they often do not die. This is called the catfish effect. "

"What's the point of keeping these fish alive? They can be sold alive by fishmongers for a higher price, and then they can be boiled to death in a frying pan?"

Si Chong snorted coldly and said disdainfully. If He Songling said this to someone else, even Zhuge Yuan, who had studied with him, would probably be fooled. The reason is that they have never seen the real dangers, the cruelty of war, and the ugliness of human nature.

It is normal for young people to be passionate and want to make some changes.

But who is Shi Chong? He is not a white lotus taught by Zuo Ruotong. Zuo Ruotong's master was also a stinky hooligan. Shi Chong is also in his sixties this year. He has experienced countless things. He is old and cunning. How can he be fooled by a young man like He Songling?
He asked, "Boy, tell me the truth, can we win this battle?"

"Yes." He Songling didn't say much. Whether it was from his relationship with Si Chong or his trust in Si Chong's life experience, he didn't explain much and just answered with one word.

"Stand still." Si Chong nodded. "Then it's settled. Arrange for half of the people to go down the mountain. Your master and I have gradually passed down the ideas and exercises you sent back in the letter. That's why I told you not to do anything fancy just now. This old guy is jealous of you."

"Is this true?" He Songling was now interested. "The Great Ying Immortal has such a trick. Is he still my master?"
