Chapter 618: Confrontation Trial
Nine hundred years ago, the Guan family and the Shao family moved out of the imperial capital and came to Twin Peaks. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere is only one Twin Peaks, and the two families have had a fierce battle for control of Twin Peaks, and as a result, both sides have lost more than they gain.
was forced to move away from the imperial capital, and the two families were already fighting each other because of the decline of their strength, which undoubtedly made the two families worse.
The ancestors of the two great families were extremely wise, and after negotiating with each other, they decided to hold a confrontation trial every "five years", with the participation of the younger generation of the two families, and the territory of Twin Peaks was divided according to the victory or loss of each confrontation trial.
This "rule of the game" did a good job of avoiding the defeat of both families, and has lasted for nearly a thousand years, until now.
In addition to the east and west peaks, Twin Peaks actually has a north peak in the north. To be more precise, Twin Peaks is actually a city surrounded by "Three Peaks", and it is more appropriate to call it "Three Peaks City".
However, because the North Peak is far away from Twin Peaks, and standing on top of the tallest building in Twin Peaks, you can barely see the North Peak, so the North Peak often becomes a neglected mountain, and most residents of Twin Peaks will not consider the North Peak even if they play.
Another reason is that the north peak, like the west peak and the east peak, is also the private property of the Shao family and the Guan family, and the foot of the mountain is guarded, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter.
However, unlike the East Peak and the West Peak, the North Peak is a private property shared by the two families, and it is also a place where the two families face each other once every five years and are fixed in the "rules of the game".
After many days of freezing rain, today's day is good, the sky is clear, and the sun is shining, which makes people feel happy at a glance.
At this moment, at the foot of the North Peak, which is more majestic than the East Peak and the West Peak combined, the Shao family and the Guan family are distinctly divided into two major lineups, each occupying one side of the square at the foot of the mountain.
The weather was very good, but the faces of the Guan family were almost gloomy, and most of them were silent and did not speak, which had a sense of lifelessness;
On the other hand, the Shao family is at the other extreme, everyone is relaxed, as if they are traveling, and the sound of "hee-hee-ha" from time to time stimulates the nerves of everyone in the Guan family.
Guan Yunxing glanced at the demoralized Guan family team, and also sighed helplessly.
Originally, the strong rise of the Sanwei Medicine Hall had gone through many tests, and even defeated a powerful enemy like Ren Kuang, but now even in Zou Dui's absence, it still firmly suppressed the Baicaotang, so that the Shao family's Baicaotang is now almost as miserable as closing.
If it weren't for the fact that many families or forces in Twin Peaks City were still careful to maintain their neutrality and continue to patronize Baicaotang, the Shao family would have basically been able to withdraw from the medicine hall business in Twin Peaks City.
Under the strength of Sanwei Yaotang, it directly or indirectly led to the vigorous development of many industries of the Guan family, and faintly made the Guan family set off a momentum of catching up with the Shao family. But God is not beautiful, this damn two families confrontation trial is going to be carried out at this time, and what is even worse is that this confrontation trial, the Guan family is bound to lose at all!
Thinking of this, Guan Yunxing felt another burst of pain and remorse. The Guan family's years of weakness and incorrect methods of cultivating young children have made the gap between the younger generation of the Guan family and the younger generation of the Shao family too large.
Originally, Zou Dui's sudden appearance brought a lot of sunshine and hope, and Zou Dui would also take the initiative to participate in this confrontation trial, which undoubtedly made the Guan family much more confident. But the Shao family was ruthless, and saw that Zou Dui was the key, and under the conspiracy and calculation, they murdered Zou Dui, so that this confrontation trial completely lost the last trace of suspense.
Once the Guan family loses this confrontation trial with an unprecedented fiasco, the rising momentum driven by the strong rise of the Three Flavor Medicine Hall will be strongly suppressed, and all the efforts and hard work of people including Guan Yunxing these days will be in vain.
At that time, the Guan family will not be able to say that it is completely finished, and they will also be forced to the edge of the cliff. But Guan Yunxing could only watch all this happen, and he couldn't do anything about it, which was what made him unacceptable.
In addition to Guan Yunxing, the other upper-level elders of the Guan family also saw all this very clearly, and some radical elders even simply proposed that the Guan family completely withdraw from the confrontation trial that had lasted for nearly a thousand years.
Guan Yunxing and others were once moved by this proposal, but finally rejected it after careful consideration. After all, the "rules of the game" of the two families were formulated by the ancestors and have been passed down for nearly a thousand years, and if the Guan family does not abide by them first, it will immediately become morally untenable.
Don't underestimate this seemingly illusory "morality", for big families, they often have to rely on it to deal with each other, and it is also something that big families must do to win the trust of others or forces.
Therefore, once the Guan family loses its morality, the result may not be much stronger than the historical loss of the confrontation with the Shao family.
In the end, Guan Yunxing and other high-level officials of the Guan family gritted their teeth and silently led the team to participate in this confrontation trial.
"Hahahaha...... Brother Guan, this time the confrontation trial, your Guan family came a little late, I once thought that your Guan family would not dare to come to participate!"
In the midst of a burst of laughter, Shao Lun's trademark sarcastic words with guns and sticks rang out, but it was Shao Lun who strode over under the pretext of greeting.
Shao Lun's behavior was undoubtedly much more hateful than "falling into the well", and everyone in the Guan family looked at Shao Lun with hatred and anger for a while.
Shao Lun's eyes narrowed, not only did he not get annoyed, but he felt a kind of enjoyment, and walked a few steps in front of Guan Yunxing, opening his mouth to say something.
At this time, Guan Yunxing didn't look at Shao Lun with his eyes, and ordered loudly: "The time for the confrontation trial is almost up, everyone is ready to start!"
"Yes!"
Guan Yuhe and the others responded neatly, and immediately took action and lined up in a square line.
No one in the Guan family paid attention to Shao Lun, which naturally made Shao Lun's sarcastic punch awkwardly hit the air. Shao Lun originally came over under the pretext of greeting, just to vent his frustration of being suppressed by the Guan family these days, but he didn't expect to be directly shocked with the meaning of "internal injury", and he couldn't help but be even more annoyed and angry.
"Hmph...... Brother Guan, the old man really hopes that your Guan family can still be so arrogant after the confrontation trial!"
Shao Lun was unwilling to be bored, so he snorted coldly and put down a cruel word.
Shao Lun's words made all the family members involved angry, and Guan Yunxing and the others were even more faced with the frost and were about to fight back verbally. At this time, suddenly a voice came from afar, which shocked everyone on the spot, as if hearing thunder on a sunny day ringing in their ears.
