Gu Yucheng took Suo Yerang and Cang Shuliang to a remote place to hide.
Gu Yucheng said smugly, "How? - You must have successfully infiltrated."
Cang Shu complained in his conscience, "Sneaking in? I have never seen us sneaking in so openly."
However, although Cang Shu was still reluctant in her conscience, she still admired Gu Yucheng.
At least Gu Yucheng's boldness was something he never had.
Susukino groaned, "We are now..."
Gu Yucheng smiled casually, "There is nothing to be cautious about. I have observed along the way. Many monks with silver bells tied around their waists are the managers of this quarry."
Just as Cang Shuliang was about to say something, Gu Yucheng handed over a 'silver bell'.
The three people tied up the "bells" and Gu Yucheng walked out in a big way.
Seeing this, Cang Shuliang was still a little uncomfortable. ——Not used to it, not numb yet.
On the other hand, Susukino Joe had a calm face, and his hand holding the sword did not shake at all.
That way, it was like waiting for food in a restaurant, and the food that was served did not deviate from expectations. It seems that nothing is worth moving.
Gu Yucheng and Susukye Rang threw Cang Shuliang away again. Seeing this, Cang Shuliang had no choice but to catch up.
When Cang Shuliang came to Gu Yucheng's side, Gu Yucheng suddenly asked, "Cang Shu, I remember that the Demon Kingdom was short of food several times. But many monks really starved to death?"
Since Gu Yucheng would ask questions in such a scene, he would naturally ask by voice.
Cang Shuliang soothed his breath and affirmed through the voice, "This is natural. If a monk does not enter the Ningding Cauldron, he cannot abandon his physical body. As long as the physical body is still in a cage, he will suffer from cold, hunger, hunger and labor."
"To put it bluntly, monk, it's just that he is more able to endure hardship. It doesn't mean that there are no restraints and limits." Cang Shuliang replied.
Gu Yucheng was silent.
"So, when there was a famine in the Demon Country, no one took care of it?" Gu Yucheng asked.
Cang Shuliang was still a little restrained, "Maybe. - Cang Shu was still born in a peaceful era, and he didn't dare to assert things he didn't understand."
Gu Yucheng nodded and fell into silence.
As the three of them walked along, they often encountered disciples who saluted them.
Gradually, the three of them got used to it.
Gu Yucheng stopped at a place where stone was mined.
The jade here has been mined out, and there is still a piece of jade, but it seems that no construction has started, and it is currently empty.
Gu Yucheng sat down so casually, without any concern that anyone would come.
Gu Yucheng pondered for a moment and asked via voice transmission, "Sha Hecheng, what do you want us to see? - What did we see again?"
The person who asked was none other than Cang Shuliang.
Cang Shuliang felt bitter at the corner of his mouth and felt unfair in his heart: he had no role in making decisions, but he had to provide advice from time to time.
But Cang Shuliang had to sigh and return to the message, "It's not so much what the Dudian Envoy wants us to see...it's better to say what he wants us to think."
Gu Yucheng raised his eyebrows.
Cang Shuliang went on to explain, “We don’t need to see anything. As long as we want to cooperate with him.
What would we think if we only saw the quarry today? In other words, if we only see the empty Tonglu Town, what will we think? "
Gu Yucheng suddenly smiled, "I'm afraid he will be afraid of Tonglutang. An invisible force is occupying Qitong. Even if it is just a rumor, how can it not make people feel afraid? Once a gap occurs, I'm afraid we will have a lot of trouble with the locals of Qitong." The forces will become more and more fearful."
"When the time comes, I will naturally cooperate with him, Sha Hecheng." Gu Yucheng sighed, "What a good method."
Cang Shuliang nodded and was about to say something, but Gu Yucheng took the lead and shook his head and sighed, "But I'm afraid there's more to Sha Hecheng's thoughts than that."
"If we really cooperate with him, we will be despised by him." Gu Yucheng smiled helplessly.
Originally they were still chatting through voice transmission, but now Gu Yucheng said, "So that gentleman understands our attitude. If we are weak, we may not even have any bones left."
Gu Yucheng's words made Cang Shuliang shrink his neck in shock and his face turned red. "Gu Lichang! How could you..."
Gu Yucheng knew that Cang Shuliang was complaining that he was speaking freely, but he didn't care. He stood up, clapped his hands and said, "Let's go."
Cang Shuliang was completely angry.
It's him, Gu Yucheng, who wants to come in.
Now that you have come in, you have to leave again? What's the meaning? !
Cang Shuliang looked at Susukino Rang angrily, hoping that Susukino Rang would stand up and say something fair. ——How can you be so ridiculous!
The next moment, Susukino stood up.
Cang Shuliang seemed to have seen the scene where Gu Yucheng was reprimanded by the governor.
However, Susukino just nodded, "Okay. Let's go."
Cang Shuliang stayed powerlessly like a withered vine.
He just didn't understand why Suo Yerang was so obedient to Gu Yucheng.
Cang Shuliang finally couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Gu Lichang! Even though he didn't go through all kinds of hardships, he still spent a lot of effort to get into this jade field. Now he's leaving without even looking carefully?"
Gu Yucheng was silent. After a moment, Gu Yucheng smiled and said, "Why do you think I asked you about the natural disasters in the Demon Kingdom?"
Cang Shuliang frowned slightly, but didn't know what to say.
Gu Yucheng explained calmly, "Have you not noticed that the monks working here are all working hard? Do you think such a scene is something that a handyman monk can do? - If it is hard labor, then Why would a monk salute an elder?"
"When I came here, I have seen through what I want to know. I was still very confused about how the Jianghu forces could overwhelm the temples. Could it be that a monk couldn't be the head of a government, and couldn't even take refuge in various provinces and counties? After all, there are monks in the Central Plains. Being able to join the four major sects..."
"What's more, the temple is now the public face after all. How did the Jianghu attract a large number of monks?" Gu Yucheng's question directly addressed Cang Shuliang.
Cang Shuliang grasped the development momentum of the matter.
And Gu Yucheng not only wants to know how things are developing, but also is looking for why they are developing like this.
This made Cang Shuliang surprised and ashamed.
"But after I asked about the famine in the Demon Kingdom, I understood everything..." Gu Yucheng frowned slightly, "Because the ministers in the temple don't care about casual cultivators at all... It's ridiculous that monks can starve to death. "
Yes, a monk may not starve to death if he doesn't eat or drink for a month.
Even though the former monks' cultivation was low, a large number of monks still died of hunger.
Doesn't this illustrate the attitude of Zhongdu County Temple towards monks all over the world?
"I have worked in the mines... Everything in Tonglu Hall is not to squeeze the monks. On the contrary, the spiritual stones here are probably mined for the monks of Tonglu Hall."
Gu Yucheng had seen the mines in Nanjun, and the atmosphere there was completely different from the stone quarry here.
At least Gu Yucheng had never saluted the thin, dark man who was supervising him. Not a single monk ever saluted.
Gu Yucheng could see clearly how different the attitudes of temples and Jianghu were towards casual cultivators.
This attitude alone determines the power of the Jianghu, and ultimately can overwhelm the temple...
The future of the demon country is even more exposed before Gu Yucheng's eyes...
Cang Shuliang swallowed his words for a long time, and finally sighed, "Gu Li Changchen has a glimpse of the infinite, and he can know a thousand miles with just a few centimeters. Cang Shuliang is really not as good as..."
Gu Yucheng smiled, "This trip to Tonglu Mountain has enriched my plan... Let's go, go out first."
This time, Cang Shuliang was convinced.
Cang Shuliang and Gu Yucheng are both counselors. ——At least in Cang Shuliang's eyes.
So Gu Yucheng, who sees further than him, can certainly make him obey.
No matter how hard Gu Yucheng tried.
At least Cang Shuliang can comfort himself: Gu Yucheng has his own plan.
