Tomorrow is the day for the Sima family to challenge the Su Taoist hall, and it is also the deadline. If the Sima family fails to challenge, the Sima Taoist hall will disappear at the daomen forever.
Ma Jiantiao came to propose marriage on this crucial day, which seemed casual, but in fact, it was also carefully considered. Ma Jian just wants to ask Sima Jian about the fact that is it your daughter's marriage or the Taoist temple that has been inherited for thousands of years?
If Sima Jian refuses, if Ma Jian is in trouble tomorrow, the challenge of Sima's Taoist hall will be difficult to succeed.
"I heard that Sima Xuan is also a woman. She will challenge Su's Taoist hall on behalf of Sima family tomorrow." After Ma Jian paused, he said meaningfully, "don't worry, it's me who will witness your challenge tomorrow. This is also what I took the initiative to put forward. I hope the owner of Sima hall can realize the deep meaning."
Yes, when one Taoist school challenges another, there must be an authoritative witness nearby, otherwise there is no timeliness.
The deep meaning?
What else can there be? If Sima Jian promises his children's marriage at the moment and sets a date, Ma Jian will stand by Sima's house anyway tomorrow. As long as he says a word, Sima Xuan challenges ten people and can succeed with one blow; If you don't agree, even if Sima Xuan challenges ten people successfully, as a witness, if the challenge is not successful, he will not succeed.
Because no one outside knows the result of the fight inside. Of course, they are more willing to believe the words of notaries, because every notary is a more authoritative figure in daomen.
"I understand, of course, the owner of the horse house. It's just..." Sima Jian had to stand up and say, "it's just like this. The little girl has a boyfriend, and this boyfriend has become the head of our Sima family. The rules of our Sima family are like this. As long as it's a Sima family, marriage must be approved by the head."
Sima Jian didn't want to delay his daughter's happiness, and didn't want to offend the Ma family, so he had to turn the spearhead on Chu Jiang.
According to the Taoist rules, if Chu Jiang wants to challenge the Su Taoist school on behalf of the Sima family, he really wants to become the door-to-door son-in-law of the Sima family and the head of the Sima Taoist school.
Sima Jian did have this idea at first, but he hasn't performed the procedure yet, but now that Ma Jian has forced him to do so, he has to tell a beautiful lie that the procedure has been performed. Chu Jiang is already the head of Sima family, and he can make decisions about the affairs of Sima family.
Ma Jian certainly understood the rules of daomen. Since Sima Jian said so, he couldn't attack on the spot, but snorted.
"Master Sima, they haven't got the certificate yet?" Ma Qingyun's eyes turned and asked coldly.
"Not yet... Not yet." Sima Jianxin panicked and could only answer truthfully.
"Before you get the certificate, you let him be the leader. Is it a little too hasty?" Ma Qingyun said ominously.
"This..." Sima Jian was speechless for a moment.
According to the rules, it's true to be the door-to-door son-in-law first and then the head. Otherwise, if you break up with his daughter after becoming the head, wouldn't you owe your daughter and pay the head. Sima Jian's beautiful lie just now is unreasonable when you think about it a little.
"After we succeed in challenging Su's Taoist Hall tomorrow, we will go to get the certificate immediately, and have a double happiness." Sima Xuan straightened his proud chest and took over his father's words, "in short, this is our Sima family's family business. Do you want to take care of it?"
"Master Sima, are you making excuses, or do you dislike how many rooms our Ma Qingyun has married?" Ma Jian said with a firm face, "on the way here, we Qingyun also said that as long as your daughter gets married, he will officially get the license with your daughter. The other few are just nominal wives and concubines. Usually, playing mahjong can make a table for fun. You also know that it is common to marry three wives and four concubines in our daomen, but the one who gets the license is the right one."
It seems that Ma Jian has also shown his cards, which shows the extent of Ma Qingyun's obsession with Sima Xuan.
If he hadn't been so obsessed, he wouldn't have moved out of his father and aimed at this wonderful opportunity.
"Mr. Ma, how about waiting until tomorrow when our leader Mr. Chu Jiang comes to discuss?" Sima Jian has no way to go, so he can only push hard. Everything will be discussed tomorrow.
"Well, master Sima, you are also a smart man. I hope you will be yourself tomorrow." Ma Jian shook his sleeve, then pulled up Ma Qingyun and left.
Sima and his wife hurriedly got up and laughed to send each other off. When they were about to leave the gate of the Taoist hall, Ma Jian turned his head and looked at the huge Taoist hall, pretending to be secretly sad: "if Sima's family made a wrong choice, this Taoist hall will be in ruins from tomorrow. It's a pity, it's a pity!"
Ma Jian ignored Sima Jian's reaction and got on the bus.
Almost when Ma Jian came out of Sima's courtyard, Chu Jiang had climbed over the wall and entered Su's Taoist hall in the dark.
The scale of Su's Taoist hall is almost twice that of Sima's. it can be said to be a medium-level Taoist hall in the whole of China. Therefore, we can imagine how big the first Taoist hall in China, Chen's Taoist hall, will be!
After all, it's a medium-level Taoist temple, which is opening. Of course, there are many open and hidden sentries in it, but for brother Jiang, these sentries are useless.
Soon, he came to the outside of a brightly lit living room. Chu Jiang, who was hidden in the dark, opened his perspective and saw everything inside. There were just a few people sitting inside, who seemed to be discussing something important.
"Dad, why do you play in person tomorrow? Isn't it a Sima Xuan? Even his father is not my opponent. His daughter is... Forget it!" A little silly young man hesitated and said with ambition.
This should be the silly son of the Su family, Su Dayou?
Su Feng, who was sitting in the middle of the living room, said calmly, "I heard that Sima Xuan's boyfriend beat Ma Qingyun in martial arts in three or two moves last time. Do you say you are Ma Qingyun's opponent? If his boyfriend plays this time, even his father and others will not win."
It seems that Su Feng is quite self aware.
"Master, why do you destroy your authority and increase the ambition of others!" A big young man beside Su Feng said, "I think Ma Qingyun exaggerates. If he loses, he loses. He deliberately exaggerates the other party in order to save his face."
These other young people should be the inner disciples of Su's Taoist school.
There are generally two kinds of disciples in the Taoist school. One is an outside room disciple, that is, the kind who pays tuition to train. Generally, it is just to learn some tricks and embroider legs to keep fit.
As inner disciples, they don't have to pay tuition fees, and learning is the real Taoist Kung Fu.
In peacetime, inner room disciples mainly act as coaches and are responsible for training outer room disciples.
