In the morning, the heads of the 36th Township in Yancheng arrived one after another. Most of them put incense in the mourning hall, talked to Jiang Hua, the young gentleman, flirted with each other, flirted with each other, and showed their loyalty.
And in the afternoon, Taoist Changkong finally appeared. What caught my eye was a female crown, which looked very beautiful.
This is not surprising. As the level of life increases, people will become more and more attractive. The higher the appearance, the stronger the strength. To a certain extent, this is also true in today's world.
The portraits of the pure-blood princes of the first generation are not ugly!
None of the first generation ancestors of the Qing clan were ugly!
The higher the cultivation level, the higher the appearance.
Each level of personal cultivation is equivalent to an additional level of beauty. Even if you are very ugly, when your life level rises to the level of the first-generation princes, it is equivalent to opening several levels of beauty.
But most of the practitioners are pretty good-looking. It's really an accident for someone like Liu Ba, who has a sinewy face, is over two meters tall, and has arms thicker than the average person's thighs.
"Uncle Master, you are finally back." Jiang Hua said seriously.
The most capable player in Yancheng right now is this uncle. Unlike Jiang Yan, a rich man who has no qualifications and can only use elixirs to achieve breakthroughs, Taoist Changkong is a real genius. When Jiang Yan brought him back, Taoist Changkong had already understood the Five Elements through his own efforts. The true meaning is to become a Taoist priest.
Over the years, he has been working hard to understand the secrets of yin and yang, and he is not far away from the Taoist priests. He is the real number one master in Yancheng. Even though the two geniuses, Xian Weiyan and Xian Chengyu, were born among common people, Even worse.
"Young Master!" Taoist Changkong did not call Jiang Hua his nephew.
"The former doctor Yan was killed by the unprincipled and ignorant king in the country's capital. You made an immediate decision. This is courage and decisiveness."
"Last night, you were sitting in the military camp, controlled the army, and killed the thief Sun Tian. Instead of being dazzled by hatred, you went directly to Dashiguan to do it yourself. It can be said that you were brave and strategic."
At that time, there were many people hiding outside Yancheng, waiting to take the opportunity to ambush Jiang Hua and assassinate him. Taoist Changkong and two friends worked on this for most of the night.
"After receiving the news yesterday, Uncle Master went to the East China Sea to find Master."
The master of Taoist Changkong is a real person, a real person who combines the five elements of yin and yang and rebels against the innate, so the real person is also called the innate immortal.
A Xiantian Immortal was equivalent to a first-generation king. Back when the Emperor of Zhou was enfeoffing the vassals, he could have opened up a small vassal state like Chao State.
Hearing this, Jiang Hua and others immediately pricked up their ears.
"Master said that Chao Kingdom is very small and he can destroy it easily, so there is no big problem. But after all, Chao Kingdom was one of the princes who were enfeoffed by the Emperor of Zhou. If he takes action, other big princes will also take action based on this reason."
"As for the destruction of Taoism in Chao Kingdom, it was a high-level infighting that occurred when the king of Chao Kingdom changed. It belongs to Chao's internal affairs. Even the Tao Palace cannot interfere in the internal affairs of other countries at will. This is a very taboo matter."
The status of a group is closely related to the strength of the group. If it were not for the emergence of the three powerful Taoists, Li Sheng, Kong Sheng and Mo Sheng, the Taoist situation might be even worse than it is today.
"However, before I left, Master also said that he would help keep an eye on the Chao Kingdom. Once the power outside the Chao Kingdom exceeds the appearance, he will take the opportunity to take action. Therefore, even if someone helps the monarch to rejuvenate, he cannot do it openly. Go ahead and take action.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hua bowed in the direction of the East China Sea: "Thank you for your help, Master."
"In addition, I also invited two fellow Taoists. These two fellow Taoists are ten times as talented as me and are true geniuses."
"Ordinary Taoists practice by first comprehending the five elements, and then comprehending yin and yang, but these two directly comprehended yin and yang."
It is very convenient to understand the five elements. Everyone has the five elements, and the five internal organs of the human body echo the five elements one by one. The most important thing is that the Five Elements can be seen everywhere in the world.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are all things that ordinary people can see, and it is easier to understand them if you see them every day. Even if water means moistening, gold means Congge, fire means inflammation, wood means straightness, earth means farming, etc., you can understand them after careful observation. Therefore, as long as you practice Qi, you can take this path.
But Yin and Yang are different. The world's description of Yin and Yang has always been very abstract. Some people say that one yin and one yang are called the Tao, and some people say that yin is the soul and the soul, and yang is the physical body and the precious body. Others say that yin is all invisible things and yang is all tangible things.
Most people who directly comprehend the true meaning of Yin and Yang at the beginning of Qi refining have failed. The very few who succeed can easily turn themselves into lunatics or physically deformed.
"Among them, Taoist brother Peng Bing directly sensed the yang energy and followed the path of Mo Sheng. Brother Lin Erdao directly sensed the yin energy and followed the path of Li Sheng. However, they are still observing and have not yet decided to directly serve in Yancheng. .”
"Then when should I visit these two seniors? What gifts should I bring?" Jiang Hua asked directly.
Get familiar with them first and prepare for inviting them to work later.
"Any time after you succeed to the throne, as a gift, a hundred taels of gold sand will suffice."
Jiang Hua nodded heavily: "Okay!"
Taoist Changkong smiled and nodded, and took out another gift list: "This is a gift from the 137 Taoist temples in the East China Sea."
"Some Taoist temples gave away thousands of taels of gold sand."
Upon hearing this number, the county magistrate Cheng Yu was afraid that Jiang Hua would not understand, so he took the initiative and said: "I guess this family doesn't plan to come back? Otherwise, they won't be able to give away so much."
Taoist Changkong sighed: "Yes, after this Taoist temple delivers the gold sand, it will never get involved in Yancheng affairs again. Moreover, they want to move their relatives in the city together, and I hope we will not stop it. However, No one can say they are ungrateful for taking out so much in one go.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hua remembered what was going on in these Taoist temples.
Over the past eight hundred years, the Jiang family has relied on constantly promoting new people to develop Yancheng, and using them whenever they have talent. It is precisely because of this that ordinary people are willing to die for the Jiang family and are willing to give their lives to help the Jiang family open up the wilderness.
But after each generation of Jiang family heads succeed to the throne, there are a large number of ancestral nobles. How to deal with these ancestral nobles?
Most of the ancestral nobles own fiefdoms and have made great contributions to the Jiang family. Their ancestors risked their lives to be where they are today.
If the Jiang family killed people for no reason or canceled their fiefdoms, the Jiang family's reputation would be ruined, and the Jiang family's nobles would be worthless.
But if the Jiang family does not deal with these old nobles, then as time goes by, sooner or later, the upper-level rulers of the entire Yancheng will be all old nobles. At that time, the newcomers will never be able to succeed. This is not what the Jiang family wants. have witnessed.
