221、Fangwai Alliance
When Yu Pengfei pulled everyone into the group, the three people from Baiyun Cave were already in the group. Just now, Tian Zhongluo also said, "Welcome to the Secret Realm Alliance!" Ding Qi thought that this was a secret organization that has been circulating since ancient times, just like the Freemasonry in the West.
As a result, it was just drafted and organized by Tian Zhongluo and prepared to initiate. Today, all the people here should be the founders of this so-called alliance.
Everyone analyzed and discussed the limerick for a long time. Ye Zongqing finally asked, "Mr. Tian, why didn't the people from Baiyun Cave come today?"
Tian Zhongluo sighed and said, "Master Zhai Cave is busy now, calling everyone back to Baiyun Cave, and he is guarding the door and is working on new security projects. He knows what happened today. The idea of establishing a Secret Realm Alliance was first discussed by Master Zhai Cave and I, and he entrusted me to represent Baiyun Cave."
Security project? Ding Qi immediately realized that it should be equivalent to adding an artificial portal outside the secret realm of the world. For example, they could build another house outside the portal of the small realm of the small realm, or even build it as insecure as a bank vault. In fact, they bought two adjacent buildings and renovated the backyard to repair the pavilion. In a sense, it was also considered a security project.
Ye Zongqing said lightly: "Of course, Master Zhai Cave is obeyed by President Tian in everything, and the business of Baiyun Cave outside has always been taken care of by President Tian. Although each of the secret realms of heaven and earth has its own masters, after the people come out, President Tian is their leader."
As expected, he was still an acquaintance and understood the situation. As soon as he heard these words, Ding Qi knew that Baiyun Cave was actually in the same group as Qiyan Realm, or that those people were Tian Zhongluo's younger brothers. People cannot just live in the secret realm of heaven and earth. As long as they come to the outside world, they must have a living and corresponding identity.
From this we can see that Tian Zhongluo's business may be very rich and powerful. Those in Baiyun Cave, the work and business outside, are all cared for by Boss Tian or simply arranged by him. When a group of people's careers and lives rely on a certain force, they will inevitably become vassals of this force.
No wonder Tian Zhongluo was able to visit Baiyun Cave, no wonder he was able to know what happened in Baiyun Cave at the first time, and also represent Baiyun Cave on this occasion. Baiyun Cave and the Strange Rock Realm should be subordinate. At least Tian Zhongluo has a way to control and influence Baiyun Cave. So did he have the same plan to initiate this secret realm alliance?
What is this Tian Zhongluo from? Zhuang Mengzhou knew him and joked that he sold fake soap. What is a master of the Jianghu Cemen doing? What is the fake soap? Go back and ask Mr. Zhuang carefully, and at the same time ask about Zhu Dafu clearly—Ding Qi thought so.
Cui Shanhai was obviously thinking about another possibility, and squinted his eyes and said, "Mr. Tian, do you think someone inside Baiyun Cave is making trouble? I want Master Zhai Cave to be suspicious and take the opportunity to make any plans."
Tian Zhongluo nodded: "This situation is not impossible, so Master Zhai Dong did not come this time and called everyone back, just to check one by one."
Zhuang Mengzhou echoed: "Master Cui Feng's suspicion makes sense. If that's the case, we would have been a false alarm."
Tian Zhongluo explained seriously: "It is better to believe in things like this than to believe in them. Moreover, what happened in Baiyun Cave is only one of the evidence. I have also heard about the recent rumors in the world through other channels. It is said that a man named Zhu Dafu created a secret method that can discover places outside that people do not know.
What is more noteworthy is that people who heard this rumor were not people like us. They didn’t know the existence of the secret realm of heaven and earth. They just talked about the mountains at the wine table, but they had a nose and eyes. Others couldn’t understand it. But in the ears of people like us, they knew very well what it meant.”
Speaking of this, he paused for a few more seconds, then looked around and said, "Everyone, if there is such a person who can do the things that are said in the rumors, think about it carefully, what does this mean?"
What does it mean? Everyone was thinking about it, and the one that needs to be thought out the most is probably Ding Qi. Ding Qi's appearance pointed out a new path for Zhu Shanxian and others; for Wei Fanting, it was to help her escape the cage of the heaven and dungeon; but for Fan Yang, it was a tool worth using; for Zhang Wangxiong, it was both worth using and a threat.
Zhu Dafu's appearance affected the owners of the outside world. The incident in Baiyun Cave was probably done by Zhuang Mengzhou. Listening to his conversation with Shang Ni, the poem was probably written by him. This first means that the secret realm of heaven and earth that could not have been discovered by outsiders suddenly became unprepared and could be invaded at any time.
Your security door suddenly failed. He was touched in and walked around and wrote a poem on the wall. You didn't know how the other party came in, and there was no place to call the police, so of course you would be very uneasy.
In fact, on the surface, if someone creates a secret method that can find and exit the unknown external world, there is no problem in itself, and it can only be said to be someone else's ability. But to think deeper, for these secret realms, it may be another feeling, including the impact on the psychological level.
The outside world was originally a place where all forces enjoyed, and it was also a secret for everyone. But in the blink of an eye, their own secrets may be discovered. Even if the outside world cannot be taken away, they have lost a certain sense of security, and more importantly, they have lost a certain sense of superiority.
The confidence of being superior, the support for walking in the world, and the retreat of the game are all vaguely threatened. Now there is only one Zhu Dafu. If more people learn this secret method, what does it mean? Tian Zhongluo just asked a question to everyone think about it by themselves, and everyone may have thought of it.
The reactions of everyone here were long ago as Tian Zhongluo expected, and he coughed lightly and said, "So, we should have formed an alliance long ago. Everyone should unite and communicate with each other and cooperate with each other, which can not only protect the interests of everyone, but also bring greater and more benefits."
At this time, Cui Shanhai suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Old Tian, wait! I thought about it for a long time and thought about it. If such a person really created such a secret method, it would be very valuable and meaningful. The most valuable one is the method he discovered! To be fair, this is not a bad thing."
Ding Qi couldn't help but nodded. It turns out that birds of feathers flocked to each other, otherwise why would Cui Shanhai be Tan Hanchuan's friend? What's more interesting is that Cui Shanhai does not reject the title of Peak Lord, and is happy to hear people call him that, probably because he thinks it's quite stylish. In fact, this is nothing. Cui Shanhai's temperament is the nobleness and simplicity of engineering intellectuals.
Tan Hanchuan also echoed: "Master Cui Feng is right!"
Tian Zhongluo sighed and said, "Xiao Cui, you don't live in Xiangshui Peak. That secret realm of heaven and earth is just a scenic spot for your family for daily travel and vacation, and you don't rely on anything there. You have the treasure of the world control in your hands, you can go there at any time if you want to, and don't care whether others can find or go there, so you feel that it doesn't matter.
But think about Master Ye Gu, Wuxin Valley is their homeland, a secret that has lived in seclusion for generations, and is also a secret that all tribesmen keep. The situation in Baiyun Cave is similar, and it feels different..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Zongqing interrupted: "Actually, I don't think there is anything wrong with Wuxin Valley or Wuxin Valley. Since ancient times, outsiders have discovered it by chance. Even if Zhu Dafu found it, there is nothing wrong with being a guest. It mainly depends on who he is and what purpose he is."
Zhu Shanxian and Ding Qi also nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, we think so too."
When they saw that everyone had this attitude, Tian Zhongluo sighed: "I did not find the wrong person!"
Zhuang Mengzhou wondered, "Oh, why did Boss Tian say this?"
Tian Zhongluo said seriously: "We will create the Secret Realm Alliance, that's right! Because everyone has no selfishness and hopes that they can get along better with each other and see more positive and valuable things. Only in this way can the alliance be united, have vitality, and have more development prospects.
There are at least a dozen secret realms of heaven and earth that we can contact now, but why do we find you first today? I have this consideration. First of all, we should not regard this person or this matter as a threat, but as an opportunity!
Even people like Zhu Dafu have appeared. What reason do we have to not unite and communicate with each other? Don’t set up an organization of our own? No matter what happens in the future, everyone can watch over each other. Including Zhu Dafu, if he can really find him and can we get a talk, why don’t we invite him to join the Secret Realm Alliance?”
Applause suddenly sounded in the room, and it was Li Xiuyuan and Yu Pengfei who were the first to applaud. Zhuang Mengzhou also slapped with a smile. Since this was the case, everyone applauded with face. Tian Zhongluo pressed down with his hands modestly and said with a smile: "Can we reach a consensus first today to celebrate the establishment of the Secret Realm Alliance?"
Zhu Shanxian took the lead and said, "I have no objection!"
Ding Qi immediately said, "I have no objection!"
Cui Shanhai glanced at Shui Ruo, and after receiving a positive answer, he spread his hands casually and said, "This is a good thing, we have no objection."
Ye Zongqing said, "I have come and participated, so of course I will not object. But since we have established an alliance, we must have a purpose and charter, right?"
Tian Zhongluo: "We will discuss this in detail later. Now we can announce that the Secret Realm Alliance has been established, and the members and founders include: Qiyan Realm, Baiyun Cave, Wuxin Valley, Xiangshui Peak, Xiaojing Lake, and Jinshanyuan."
Zhuang Mengzhou shouted like a little cheering: "Everyone applauds warmly again!" He took the lead and slapped. This time the applause was much warmer than it was just now.
Ding Qi had already seen Tian Zhongluo's plan, which was to seize this opportunity to establish an organization that unites all the secret realms of heaven and earth, and the founder they chose was very particular. Needless to say, Baiyun Cave was subordinate to the Qiyan Realm. Cui Shanhai and Ye Zongqing were both people who had no ambitions or desire for power.
There is no force in Xiangshui Peak, it is just the outer world owned by the Cui family. There should be many people in Wuxin Valley, but they are in a corner. Just look at Ye Zongqing, you will know that they already own the outer world and have no intention of fighting for anything in the world.
As for Xiaojing Lake and Jinshanyuan, they are actually the same force. Zhu Shanxian and others are just a little newbie who just discovered the outside world. They don’t understand many situations and don’t understand many things. They just need to join this alliance to figure out the situation and protect themselves. Moreover, Tian Zhongluo thought that he had mastered their secrets, which was the matter of Fan Yang and Zhang Wangxiong.
On the other hand, the people here together should not be underestimated. After they took the lead in establishing the Secret Realm Alliance, they were a force that could not be ignored. Any other outside world might not be able to fight against it alone.
Some things are preconceived. Tian Zhongluo first joined forces with the six secret realms of heaven and earth to form an alliance, and then controlled the alliance. Then the joiners had to follow Tian Zhongluo's routine. For example, this is like... WTO?
It is beneficial to establishing and joining this alliance, and not joining it may be excluded or even potentially threatened. Joining all the known external worlds in the world to have more communication and exchanges is not a bad thing, otherwise everyone would not agree with it. As for the personal goals that some people want to achieve... who can have no personal goals?
Although Tian Zhongluo's appearance is funny, he is still very good at doing things. He grasps everyone's mentality very accurately and does things. The only thing beyond Tian Zhongluo's expectations is probably that "Zhu Dafu" is sitting among them.
After another warm applause, Zhuang Mengzhou also became serious, as if he immediately switched to the role of the conference host and spoke first: "Since the alliance has been established, we will discuss the purpose and specific regulations next. I have two suggestions, first of all, the name, the Secret Realm Alliance is not suitable, it sounds like a spy organization that kills monsters; secondly, I highly recommend Boss Tian Zhongluotian to be the leader!"
Tian Zhongluo was about to discuss the name, but then he heard Zhuang Mengzhou's second proposal and quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, we are from all over the world, we are all together for the same goal. If we want to talk about the leader, we are actually the leader!"
Zhuang Mengzhou: "Long Wutou is not good. Even if they are all leaders, they must have a general leader, right? Lao Tian, you don't have to be humble. Initiating the establishment of an alliance is your initiative. You have made the greatest contribution and made the most contributions, and you will be willing to take charge."
Everyone agreed: "Yes, yes, it should be that General Tian should be the leader of the general league, and he should be the one who takes responsibility for it!"
Tian Zhongluo still shook his head and said, "Mr. Zhuang, you are actually modest. You are the senior Jingmen. I recommend you to be the leader of the league."
Zhuang Mengzhou also shook his head and said, "I am not the master of the mountain master and the cave, so I won't be the general leader. Moreover, in this matter, you are the seniors. I am still a newcomer. I mainly learn from everyone and gain more knowledge."
At this time, Shui Ruo interrupted: "Don't argue about this for now. I have an idea. The title of General Leader is not good. We are not setting up gangs in martial arts novels. If it is better to set up a board of directors for the sake of convenience, it is better to set up a board of directors. Everyone is the director, and General Tian is the chairman."
Tian Zhongluo nodded and said, "This proposal is very good, but I am determined to be inappropriate to this chairman. This is really not polite or humble. I usually have a lot of things, so I am afraid I can't take care of my energy."
Li Xiuyuan said at the right time: "Master Tian is telling the truth, he has always been so low-key and selfless."
Zhuang Mengzhou: "That won't work. Who should you be the chairman if you don't want to be the chairman? I have no selfishness. Look at the people here, you are the richest ones!" It turns out that he meant that, and everyone laughed.
Tian Zhongluo smiled and said, "Mr. Zhuang, don't worry, I can make a guarantee. Although I don't become the chairman, Qiyanjing can assign a vice chairman. I think it's Xiaoyu. Let him provide good services to all elders and provide logistics and financial support. In the future, no matter what activities the alliance has, such as conference affairs, tourism, or inspection, can be arranged by Xiaoyu, which means I have contributed to the alliance."
Ding Qi also realized that Tian Zhongluo really didn't want to be the chairman himself. Then he thought about it, this person is actually quite smart. It doesn't make much sense to just hold the title of chairman. It's easy to attract conflicts. It might be better to stand behind the scenes to manipulate.
Recommending Yu Pengfei as the vice chairman in charge of funding and arranging various affairs is equivalent to mastering the various situations of the alliance. The alliance's funds are provided by Tian Zhongluo, and the vice chairman is Tian Zhongluo's assistant, so Tian Zhongluo's status is definitely more important than that of the chairman.
Ye Zongqing shook his head and said, "Mr. Tian, it is not appropriate for you to do this. Although you are rich, others are not begging for food. Since it is an alliance, if there are any alliance activities that require financial support, I suggest that everyone join together, and there is not much sharing. We are not an investment and consumption alliance."
Shui Ruo: "It makes sense. I agree with President Ye's suggestion and also with President Tian assigning a vice chairman."
Zhuang Mengzhou: "Then let's discuss the candidates and division of labor of the vice chairman first, so that the prototype of the alliance will come out. As for the chairman, let's talk about it in the end."
All the people here are very straightforward, and they immediately discussed the candidates for three vice-chairmen. First, Yu Pengfei, assistant to Tian Zhongluo, is fully responsible for the daily work of the board of directors, equivalent to the executive vice-chairman. Such as statistics on the situation of alliance members, the review of new alliance members, arrangements for daily activities of the alliance, etc., also because Pengfei is in charge.
The second vice chairman is Ye Zongqing. Her identity is equivalent to a supervisor. She is responsible for internal supervision, supervising the compliance and implementation of various regulations, whether the activities are completed in accordance with the plan, whether the use of funds is reasonable, etc.
The third vice chairman is Shui Ruo, whose responsibilities are equivalent to a housekeeper or organization minister, responsible for specific event planning, contact, financial expenditure arrangements, etc. The candidates for the vice chairman have been arranged, and the eighteen people who have joined the group are all members of the board of directors.
Yu Pengfei quickly got into the role and spoke as executive vice chairman: "The purpose of our alliance is to unite all the secret realms of heaven and earth to cooperate with each other and communicate with each other. But one thing needs to be noted that the secret realms of heaven and earth are the secrets of each of us after all, and we still need to keep a confidentiality level within us, and we cannot spread the news at will.
Therefore, regarding the detailed information and contact information of each secret realm of heaven and earth, I suggest that it only be disclosed to the director level, and there can be three quotas for each secret realm of heaven and earth, and the rules are set according to the circumstances when we were founded."
Ye Zongqing nodded thoughtfully and said, "I just had this doubt, so Xiaoyu said it out. Xiangshui Peak may not have such concerns. But the situation in our Wuxin Valley is complicated, with many people in it. After all, the alliance involves each family's own secrets and is not suitable for too many people to know all the situation. So I agree with this proposal, which can also dispel the doubts of new entrants."
Shui Ruo: "For ordinary members of the secret realms of heaven and earth, they only need to know that there is this alliance. If there is anything that needs to be exchanged or exchanged with other secret realms of heaven and earth, they can be handled through the director... Hey, my Xiaoxi is also a director!"
Cui Xiaoxi said excitedly: "Yes, I am also a director!"
Everyone laughed and felt a little unserious. But there was nothing we could do. Who said that Xiangshui Peak has so few people? Sometimes disadvantages can also become an advantage.
The member structure of the board of directors has been determined, and it is time to discuss the name issue. Zhuang Mengzhou insisted that the name of the Secret Realm Alliance was inappropriate and was recognized by most of the people here. Zhu Shanxian and others must have supported Zhuang Mengzhou. Tian Zhongluo finally asked: "Mr. Zhuang, what do you think this alliance should be called?"
Zhuang Mengzhou replied simply: "Fangwai Alliance!"
Chapter completed!
