Just when everyone was thinking about how to achieve their goals without angering Fenglin Town, Zhao Yun suddenly said: "Looking at you guys, I'm afraid you won't be able to make up your mind for a while. Let's discuss it among yourselves first and wait until tomorrow." How about continuing and giving me an answer?"
"It just so happens that I've been talking to you here for a long time and haven't even had a sip of water. I can go and take a rest now. Anyway, it's not urgent for us at all. As for whether you are in a hurry or not, that's your business."
With a faint smile on his face, Zhao Yun looked confident and had them completely in his hands.
A few gloomy expressions quietly appeared on the faces of the group of monks, but they did not refute Zhao Yun.
Therefore, the first negotiation between Fenglin Town and Fohai Temple ended. Zhao Yun took Ma Yunlu and the deputy envoy back to rest, while the abbot and others continued to stay in the lobby. It is unclear what they said next. I know, but after other monks in Fohai Temple discovered this negotiation, the faces of the elders and abbot seemed not to be very good.
The reason is easy to determine, but what makes everyone curious is what exactly Maplewood Town said to make so many elders and abbots look so ugly.
Zhao Yun ignored this. The elders and abbots of Fohai Temple looked ugly. It was none of his business in Fenglin Town. He only needed to make them agree to his request.
Following the two novices who led the way, Zhao Yun and the others arrived at the temporary residence prepared for them by Fohai Temple.
As expected, although the three major Buddhist temples suffered a big blow at the hands of the Demon Buddha Lord, a lot of their heritage was still preserved.
The value of this reception hall is extraordinary. If we must calculate it, it is probably equivalent to the basic income of Maplewood Town in the next six months?
The space in the hall is wide enough and there are many rooms. At least the mission brought by Zhao Yun is not enough to completely fill the rooms in the hall.
After the two novices brought the three of them, they bowed slightly, then turned and left.
Before they lead the way, they have been told not to say anything other than leading the way.
After all, no one knows whether a seemingly meaningless sentence will become a weapon to attack them when it falls into the ears of Zhao Yun and others.
But unfortunately, they thought too much this time, and Zhao Yun had no hope of knowing anything from the two novices who led them.
As the person who received the most attention, Zhao Yun was somewhat self-conscious. It was better to leave things like collecting information secretly to those under his command who were not very noticeable.
Among the people brought this time, there are many experts from the ANBU. The information that should be collected should have been collected almost, so Zhao Yun does not need to worry at all.
After walking into the main hall and closing the door, Zhao Yun took a long breath and glanced at the good ANBU masters.
Several people nodded slightly, indicating that the situation in the hall was safe and that they had taken care of all the risky areas.
Zhao Yun's body immediately relaxed slightly, and he smiled at everyone: "How do you feel? Fohai Temple."
The deputy smiled bitterly and said: "It's really tense. It seems that the contradictions within Fohai Temple are really sharp. If used well, it can indeed become a sharp weapon in our hands."
Ma Yunlu nodded with deep understanding: "Well, although I didn't understand much, I can still feel the tension in the atmosphere."
One of the ANBU members stood up and said: "According to the information we have collected, there are currently five main forces in Fohai Temple. The puppet party represented by the abbot, the three former elders of Fohai Temple, and others. The party of scattered elders.”
"Except for the last scattered force of the five forces, which is wavering and has no clear purpose, the other four forces, including the abbot, are all trying their best to fight for the actual control of Fohai Temple."
"It's just that the abbot's side is weak, so he will be pushed out as a target and become the abbot on the surface and the actual puppet."
"But I heard that the abbot is planning something recently. It seems that he wants to make a turnaround."
Zhao Yun nodded, thoughtfully: "So, this abbot is indeed not a simple person, but you can find out this information so easily. I am afraid that either Fohai Temple did not want to hide it at all, or it is an internal conflict. Too sharp to hide.”
"Judging from the behavior in the lobby, it's obviously the latter. Tsk, that's interesting."
"Is there any other news?" Zhao Yun asked next.
Several people from the ANBU looked at each other, and one of them hesitated for a moment, and then said: "We also vaguely heard a rumor, talking about the three parties headed by the three elders. Maybe the actual control is not theirs, but It’s someone else.”
Zhao Yun put his hand on the spear and rubbed it twice, then smiled calmly and said: "I'm afraid it's not just a rumor."
At this time, Zhao Yun was thinking of the ambiguous monks in the conversation in the lobby. Since he could use the abbot as a shield, couldn't he use other people as a shield?
The first few elders with the most reputation are obviously the most suitable candidates.
Of course, the actual situation is not yet completely certain, but they will stay here for a while, and Zhao Yun believes that what is hidden under the water in Fohai Temple will soon be revealed to them.
"Well, everyone has done a good job. Let's take a good rest now. Only after you have a good rest will you be more energetic."
"At least we can have a good rest before nightfall. After nightfall, this place will probably become very lively."
Zhao Yun smiled meaningfully. After everyone went to rest, he also started to make some preparations. It was said to be preparations, but in fact it was just to have fun and relax with Ma Yunlu.
After all, it will get busy at night.
Fighting with people in intrigues is sometimes not as easy as fighting with real swords and guns, and can even be more tiring.
So before that, Zhao Yun must keep himself in the best condition.
Well, at least that's the superficial reason.
Time passed by, Zhao Yun finished relaxing, and sat refreshed in a room in the hall. He expected that the time was almost up, and he didn't know who the first person to find would be.
Zhao Yun was looking forward to it with some curiosity. To be honest, he was not worried that no one would come tonight. As long as he wanted to become the real controller of Fohai Temple, after the intervention of this new force in Maplewood Town, there would definitely be only two left. result.
Either they should act unanimously to exclude the forces in Maplewood Town first, and then those who show sufficient prestige and strength in the process would be most likely to become the actual controller.
Or, the only thing left is to rely on the power of Maplewood Town.
When everyone is vying for power, has forgotten the Buddha's heart, and does not want to be destroyed, the first road has actually been blocked.
So the reality is that they can only seek help from Maplewood Town, even if that will further damage the power of Fohai Temple.
"Dong dong dong."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the hall. Zhao Yun and the deputy looked at each other, knowing that the show was about to begin.
The deputy opened the door, and then silently brought the person to Zhao Yun. He neither asked who he was nor what the purpose of coming here was, because everyone knew it well.
This man is wearing a black robe, which seems to have the ability to block sight. Even if there is a way to see through the black robe, you can only see the rich golden light inside, and there is no way to know who is inside, or even whether the person or the object is. .
As soon as the door of the small room was closed, the whole room suddenly became sealed.
There is even a large amount of golden light surging on the wall, interweaving throughout the room, turning into a cage-like existence.
The man in black robe glanced around and said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that the commander has been prepared for a long time. Are you so confident that someone will come?"
Zhao Yun supported his chin with both hands and smiled nonchalantly: "There's no loss anyway, right?"
"Okay, let's all be honest. Now you know everything that is discussed in this room and I know it, and it will never be leaked, so you can reveal your identity."
"If it's a person who doesn't even dare to reveal his identity, I have neither the determination nor the confidence to cooperate with him."
The man in black robe was silent for a moment, then smiled and said: "Shijun is really grand, well, I am the ninth elder of Fohai Temple, one of the top three elders among the five major forces in Fohai Temple. "
"Among the first few elders, except for the second elder and the fifth elder, all others were wiped out."
Then the man in black robe took off his hat, revealing the face of the ninth elder.
Zhao Yun smiled lightly and said, "Should I feel honored? One of the most powerful people in Fohai Temple actually came to me personally to discuss cooperation."
The Ninth Elder said compassionately: "Let's stop with your jokes now. It's better to get down to business as soon as possible."
Zhao Yun said disapprovingly: "That's right. After all, you have to go back and report to someone and then discuss whether to agree to my request."
The Ninth Elder's expression changed slightly, but he regained his composure in an instant, and said with a smile: "It is indeed difficult to escape your eyes, but you can rest assured that as long as the conditions are not too excessive, I can make the decision."
Zhao Yun nodded and said: "That's good, and I'm very satisfied that you didn't try to hide it. If you tried to cover it up just now, you can leave now."
The Ninth Elder's eyes flashed and he lowered his head slightly: "It seems that I have made a good decision."
Zhao Yun said with deep approval: "Yes, I like honest people."
The anger on the Ninth Elder's face flashed away, and Zhao Yun's superior attitude made him very dissatisfied.
But after all, he is a person from the city. If he wants to take power, he must rely on the power of Maplewood Town. He must tolerate him for the time being and wait until the situation stabilizes, then find a way to eliminate this trouble.
The Ninth Elder took a deep breath and said to Zhao Yun: "Yes, we are very sincere!"
