Tingxue Tower was still a room full of black style, but this time, there were five figures kneeling on the black carpet, lined up.
The black clothes are all different, as if black is the soul of Tingxue Tower, and other colors cannot be tolerated here.
"Tell me what you think."
Behind the black screen, a cold and emotionless voice came out.
The man on the far left raised his head. Although his face was covered, there was a hideous scar running diagonally downward from the upper right temple, across his eye, to the bridge of his nose.
"Reporting to the poster, I believe that the Huang family should bear the main responsibility for this matter."
After saying that, the people next to him echoed: "Yes, my subordinates also think so. The Huang family did not indicate the specific strength of the target, which led to our miscalculation. The assassin sent was not strong enough, which led to the failure of the operation."
"In my opinion, I should ask the Huang family for action compensation!"
To put it bluntly, it’s hard for me to continue working for you with your little money.
Need more money!
The scarred man nodded slightly, that's what he meant.
"I disagree."
As soon as he finished speaking, the third one from left to right, the one in the middle, said with a slightly cold voice, "Since it is impossible to estimate the target's strength, we should stop losses and stop taking action in time."
He disagreed with the former statement and advocated stopping losses. If Wu Zong was not his opponent, then no matter how many assassins he sent, it would be in vain.
"No."
Moving to the right, the person next to him immediately said: "Since we, Tingxue Tower, have accepted this order, if we give up before completing it, I'm afraid Tingxue Tower's reputation will be affected!"
"This time, so many colleagues gathered together, but there was nothing we could do to achieve the goal."
"The best policy is to give up and stop losses in time!"
Those who advocated abandonment countered.
“Are you just going to ignore Tingxuelou’s reputation in the industry?”
"It's just a task, it doesn't involve this level!"
"Just a mission?!"
…
There were five people in a row, and the four who had spoken all argued fiercely out of their own opinions.
Continue the mission and maintain the reputation of Tingxue Tower.
Stop losses in time and believe that the incident will not rise to the level of reputation.
Both parties had their own opinions, but the fifth person, the one on the far right, was the only one missing. From the beginning, he kept absolutely quiet, as if to reduce his sense of presence.
Although the discussion was intense, they still didn't come up with a useful solution.
The people behind the black screen never made a sound, as if they were watching them quietly.
As if they felt tired of arguing, or felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird, their arguing voices gradually became quieter.
"Finished?"
Seeing that they were quiet, the voice behind the screen sounded coldly. If you listen carefully, you will find that there is a hint of laziness in this voice.
In other words, the person behind the screen had no interest in their heated arguments.
This question fell in the ears of several people, but it turned into, I am not interested in your pretense at all!
What I want is how to do this thing, not just how to do it in my mouth!
They all understood, but they all lowered their heads and remained silent. They knew what to do, but didn't want to.
The verbal battle just now was indeed just for show.
"Dragon Hall Master, come here and tell me what to do?"
Seeing that they were all mute now, the female voice behind the screen was still so cold, and her emotions could not be heard.
The Dragon Hall Master is the one on the far right and the one who has never spoken.
His real name is not Long, but Tingxue Tower has five halls, named after dragon, tiger, feather, turtle and leopard.
The Dragon Hall Master remained silent for a moment and responded: "Reporting to the original poster, my subordinates believe... that the Wu Zong in the hall cannot complete the task, so they raised the level of the task and asked King Wu to take action."
When he said this, he himself was hesitant, because in Tingxue Tower, only the five hall masters were King Wu, and asking King Wu to go out meant letting them go.
This is also the reason why the other four hall masters are pretending to be bickering. Who should I let go? No one can explain it.
Or are they together?
What a joke.
Killing a young man and asking King Wu to take action is already unheard of in the industry. If you want to do it all at once, how will the outside world view Tingxuelou and how will the industry laugh at Tingxuelou?
"good."
The voice behind the screen sounded somewhat satisfied, and continued: "Master Yu, you will handle this matter."
"yes."
The person who advocated stop loss did not show any emotion when he heard this and responded respectfully.
After receiving a response, the voice behind the screen asked directly, "Master Leopard Hall, listen to the first rule of the Snow Tower, do you still remember it?"
The Bao Hall Master, who had scars on his face, his eyes visibly condensed, nodded, and read out the first rule of Tingxue Tower, word for word, in a clear and concise tone.
There are many words and it is very complicated.
The general idea is that once Tingxuelou accepts a task, it will carry it out to the end, and will not ask for compensation or price increases from the employer due to any factors.
Moreover, there is no such thing as giving up the task.
If Wu Zong can't do it, go to King Wu. If King Wu can't do it, go to King Wu!
Add layer by layer until no one can join, or until the task is completed!
In other words, their thoughts today completely ignored the rules of Tingxue Tower.
Or, forget...
That is to say, when Master Leopard Hall was reciting it, the more he recited it, the more something was wrong. The more he recited it, the more sweat appeared on his forehead.
The three hall masters, Tiger Feather Turtle, also started to tremble slightly when they heard this.
They finally realized that something was wrong, and they despised Tingxuelou's rules. They said it was big or not, just how it worked.
And obviously, from what the poster meant, he obviously wanted to take the matter to a bigger level.
After Bao Hall Master finished reading, he was silent for a moment, then he clasped his fists and said: "I know that I made a mistake, please punish me!"
The eyes of the other three people lit up, what a Leopard Hall Master, his thoughts were changing so fast.
Immediately, the three of them imitated their Leopard Hall master and took the initiative to ask for punishment.
Since we have taken the initiative and have an attitude, we won't punish him too harshly, right?
"Do you think that if you take the initiative to admit your mistakes, this host will not punish you?"
The voice behind the screen became cold again, "It seems that you have been comfortable as hall masters for too long and have forgotten to follow the iron rules of the Snow Tower!"
Hearing this, the four hall masters' hearts suddenly went cold.
"Penalty No. 5, go and collect it yourself."
The female voice was cold and emotionless.
"Don't forget, the hall master will receive the penalty, which will be doubled!"
When the four hall masters heard this, their hearts sank to the bottom and their bodies trembled.
"yes."
But it can only be so.
"Master, Mr. Yutang is going to perform a task. It would be inappropriate if the punishment is doubled."
Hall Master Long spoke at this time, actually to plead for mercy.
After a while, a voice came from the screen, "Yes, then we will be punished as normal."
"Others remain the same."
Hearing this, Hall Master Yu glanced at him gratefully. That was punishment No. 5. King Wu couldn't bear more than a few blows. He would have to lie down on the bed after twice as many punishments.
