The Wang family of Crab Island currently implements the patriarchal system, which cooperates with the elder system to lead the entire family. Under the elder system, there are also sub-temple stewards who specifically manage related affairs.
The detailed division of responsibilities is that the patriarch is in charge of everything and has the right to decide and veto on all matters in the family. However, under normal circumstances, he does not interfere in the operation of specific things, but only decides the direction of the family's development.
The choice of the clan leader is not necessarily a direct bloodline inheritance. The current clan leader is Wang Lixing, the ancestor of the Li generation.
The candidate for the clan leader first needs to be recommended by the previous clan leader. More than half of the elders council agrees. If the previous generation clan leader has an accident and it is too late to recommend, the elders will directly recommend him. Secondly, the cultivation level must reach the foundation building stage.
Special circumstances can be the cultivation of Qi Dzogchen.
The family has set up a total of five elders to form an elders' council. The elders are the most respected in the elders' council, followed by two elders. Each elder is responsible for managing the corresponding subordinate temple and reporting to the clan leader.
The candidate for the elder must be impartial and selfless and make a relatively large contribution to the family before he can serve. An ordinary elder can reach the late stage of Qi training, while a great elder needs to reach the ninth level of Qi training.
At present, the Wang family has a total of one treasure house, two pavilions and five halls, which constitute the family's operating system.
Each branch hall has a steward who is responsible for specific daily chores and reports to the elders. You can take this position only if you have reached the middle stage of Qi training.
Among them, the Law Enforcement Hall and the Weapon Refining Hall are special. The Weapon Refining Hall only has one first-level middle-grade weapon refiner and one first-level low-grade weapon refiner. They are mainly responsible for refining the family's standard magic weapon Qingyun Sword and standard robes, barely forming one hall. .
In addition to punishing the clan members who made mistakes, the main purpose of the Law Enforcement Hall is to fight against foreign enemies. The Law Enforcement Hall has the strongest overall strength.
All members of the Wang family who have advanced to the foundation-building stage have a higher status than the elders but lower than the clan leader, and usually do not manage specific matters.
The General Affairs Hall is located on Qingyun Peak, the main peak. It is built of three main halls made of blue bricks and stands in the shape of a "pin" at the foot of Qingyun Peak.
The main hall in the middle is where family tasks are received and released. The hall on the left is where family contribution points are received, and the hall on the right is where spiritual items are exchanged. The entire general affairs hall is also the busiest place for the Wang family.
Today, the General Affairs Hall is no exception, it is also very lively...
Nine boys and girls were gathered in front of the main hall, each with a sunny smile on their face. It was Wang Shi'an who had been home for a month, and they were waiting for the assignment of tasks among their clansmen.
After a month of experience, these teenagers and girls could not help but communicate in a low voice:
"Sixth brother, seventh sister, eighth brother, uncles and aunts at home are all okay. If you need any help from me, just ask, don't be polite."
Wang Shilong has felt that he has the responsibility as the eldest brother to take good care of his younger siblings since he was a child. He has been doing this for five years. The other eight people also recognized Wang Shilong very much. This time they were the first to ask with concern.
Wang Shiniu and the others smiled and responded to their eldest brother Wang Shilong's concern, saying that their parents were fine and that they had let the eldest brother worry about it.
After a while, each of them also chatted about their own experiences, and Wang Shian also joined in.
"Cough cough cough!"
While they were chatting heatedly, a coughing sound came into their ears, waking everyone up.
Looking up, a middle-aged man with a height of more than seven feet and a serious expression stood in front of him, with a faint knife mark on his face, and said calmly:
"I am Wang Mingxuan, the senior monk in the family, ranked seventh. You can call me Uncle Seventh."
After saying that, his aura shook, and the pressure of the ninth level of Qi training filled everyone's minds.
Everyone looked stern, bowed solemnly and said:
"Meet Uncle Qi"
At the same time, Wang Shian was secretly recalling the family legend about his seventh uncle. His seventh uncle, Wang Mingxuan, had the qualifications of both metal and earth spiritual roots. He was only thirty-seven years old, but his cultivation had reached the late stage of Qi training two years ago.
What really made Uncle Qi famous in the family was four years ago. A group of casual cultivators saw Uncle Qi walking alone and planned to kill and seize the treasure.
Among them, there is one who has perfected the ninth level of Qi training, one who has perfected the ninth level of Qi training, and two who have perfected the eighth level of Qi training. Under normal circumstances, if any monk in the family who has perfected the Qi training level encounters this group of casual cultivators, the final outcome can only be death. The path of death disappears.
And this seventh uncle killed three of them on his own with his cultivation that has not yet been completed at the ninth level of Qi training!
Only the monk who had reached the ninth level of Qi training saw that the situation was not good and escaped early. The knife marks on his face were caused by that battle.
Uncle Qi is also known as the clan member most promising to break through the Golden Core stage.
…
After looking at everyone's reactions, Seventh Uncle Wang Mingxuan nodded slightly and continued:
"For this family training mission, I will escort you to your respective training locations. In addition to the introduction to your training mission, the jade slips also include introductions to the forces near the family.
Talk less and see more is what you need to do in the next three years." After waving his sleeves, nine jade slips were suspended in front of everyone.
Everyone took the jade slips and was about to study them carefully when Wang Mingxuan summoned a spiritual sword and continued:
"Okay, it won't be too late to look at the jade slips when you arrive at your respective places. Come up now and I will take you there."
Wang Shi'an was not able to finish reading the jade slips. He only had time to glance at it. He knew that the place where he would practice next was called Huangfeng Island, so he followed the others on the journey.
