Negotiations have never been something that can be completed quickly, so officials from Shendu and sect representatives from Chixinguan and many other places have been discussing various details in Chongming Mountain all day long.
In fact, it's more of a quarrel than a conversation.
Big shots don't quarrel and are not willing to put their energy into quarreling. Every sect has a group of guys who can quarrel and are willing to quarrel.
So people who can quarrel will always quarrel about this kind of thing, but when everyone quarrels, it becomes more difficult to reach a consensus on this matter and they have to quarrel even more.
Chen Chao didn't have the energy to care about those things. After what he said to Yun Jianyue, he returned to Yuyu County. Although the current quarrel will definitely last for a long time, the general direction has been set.
The young monks will represent their respective sects and compete in Chongming Mountain. Because this is the first time, many sects, besides collecting information, are actually also considering one thing, that is the ancient ruins.
How much danger is there?
If it is too dangerous and you send your talented disciples in, who will be responsible if something goes wrong?
So this is bound to be a very troublesome process.
This takes time.
Chen Chao also needs time now.
After he returned to Yuyu County from Chongming Mountain, he immediately returned to the garrison yamen. According to Daliang law, he could not leave this yamen unless he had no choice but to go to Chongming Mountain before.
The governor's office has been renovated, and the burned lobby has been rebuilt, but traces of burning can still be seen vaguely in some details.
Time is really too short, and it is already amazing to be where we are now.
Standing in the clean and tidy yard, Chen Chao frowned.
From a distance, the police officers looked at him with some awe and admiration in their eyes.
They all know what happened on the long street before.
But their emotions still made Chen Chao realize that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?"
After hearing this, a policeman came over and said something to Chen Chao.
Chen Chao's brows gradually relaxed. It turned out that before he came back, people from the imperial court had already come. They had done many things in Yuyu County, the most important of which was to remove the county guard from his official position and establish a new county in the new county.
Before the governor came to Yuyu County, everything in the entire Yuyu County was decided by the Chen Dynasty. The guardian envoy lineage had always been independent of the imperial official system. According to past practice, no matter when
, the garrison envoy cannot interfere with local government affairs. Although the garrison envoy came personally this time, the court naturally had many things to consider if he wanted to accomplish such a thing.
But no matter what, it has been done.
"Sir, would you like to call in the county officials, big and small, to tell you something?"
The officer looked at Chen Chao with admiration in his eyes. Although the Chen Chao in front of them was still young, they had seen all the things he had done before and admired him very much.
Chen Chao frowned and said, "I'm not asked to stay here for ten or eight years. What's the point of doing these things?"
Listening to these words, the look in the officer's eyes dimmed a little, and so did the rest of the officers. In recent years, Yuyu County has been invaded by monsters outside and corrupt officials who prey on the common people.
As a good official who is not afraid of those foreign monks, they naturally don't want him to leave. Now hearing Chen Chao say this, they are naturally sad.
Chen Chao glanced at them and naturally knew what they were thinking. He frowned and said, "I have been here for too long, which has caused trouble. Now that so many things have happened here, no one will dare to do anything.
, your life will be much easier in the future."
This is a certainty. In the future, there will be countless pairs of eyes watching Chongming Mountain, and by the way, the entire Yuyu County will also be watching. By then, every move here will be infinitely magnified. This principle is just like the Chen Chao
You must go to the capital of God, and you must expose yourself to the sun. Exactly the same.
The sun cannot shine to any corner of the world, but when you take the initiative to appear in the sun, no matter who you are, you need to consider that sun carefully.
Yes, no one cares where you are, only whether the sun can see you.
For monks outside the country, Yuyu County was in the dark at first, so the Chongming Sect could do anything so wantonly. But once Yuyu County came into the sun, countless people had to consider whether it would be okay to do those things.
We have to pay a higher price, so life in Yuyu County may not be very good in the future, but at least it will be better than now.
The officers didn't know what to say, but they all had tears in their eyes.
To live a good life is their only desire.
Chen Chao waved his hands and ignored them, just turned around and walked into the courtyard.
He had little experience in how to govern a county, but since he had little experience, he shouldn't try to do these things and just keep things as usual.
The county governors were all dismissed from their official posts and sent to the capital city for trial. Although the remaining officials have not yet been convicted, they are now too scared to do something good to make up for their previous mistakes.
Therefore, there will definitely be peaceful days in the future.
When Chen Chao came to the backyard, someone had already prepared everything.
He took out the elixirs he carried with him, many of which were found by the Chongming Sect. These things are considered to be very good things in the Chongming Sect. Thinking about it carefully, Chen Chao himself has not had to do anything like this for a long time.
.
After leaving the city of God and heading south, it had been at least three months since I had exercised my body properly.
Now these days, he needs to make up for what he has missed, especially after entering the sea of suffering, everything has to start again. If he wants to ensure that his body is strong enough in the sea of suffering, he must work hard.
This is his foundation.
…
…
The dean originally planned to drink the bowl of sorghum wine in Yuyu County and turn around to return to the capital after meeting the white-browed old monk. However, after taking a step forward, he met the white-browed old monk again on the way.
The lotus flowers disappeared from the sky, and the white-browed old monk fell down.
There happened to be a pavilion in front, so the dean walked in without any hesitation and looked at the scenery in front of him without saying a word.
The white-browed old monk followed closely, walked in, and said straight to the point: "I have seen that young man, but I am even more confused."
The dean frowned, "He's just a pretty good little guy, what's there to be confused about?"
"There is an abnormality in his body. The future is dark and I can't see any future."
The old monk's white eyebrows floated up, looking like two long white lines.
The dean glanced at him and frowned: "You can't see it either?"
The dean is a scholar and knows a lot of things. He naturally knows that Luming Temple has existed longer than many practicing sects in the world. The eminent monks in that temple have always had the ability to observe and understand people, past and present lives.
Although you may not be able to see clearly, you can certainly see some of the past and future.
The dean asked: "What's so weird?"
The white-browed old monk shook his head and said, "I don't know."
If he knew, I'm afraid he wouldn't say such things.
The dean thought about the previous meeting with Chen Chao in Shendu, thought for a long time, and then said: "Actually, he is not a very special young man, but he is just a little stubborn." The old monk with white eyebrows looked at the dean in front of him,
Said: "I have known you for so many years, can't you tell me something?"
The old monk with white eyebrows said: "I asked him to go to the temple and have a look, and ask a senior to take a look again."
The dean frowned and said with some surprise: "Then the old monk is still alive?"
After hearing this statement, the white-browed old monk's face became a little ugly. Even though he had a good relationship with the dean, he was still very dissatisfied with the old monk who was called that.
The dean sighed: "A few years ago, I heard that the old... monk was about to pass away, but it turned out to be false?"
"Senior has profound Buddhist teachings, so he can naturally live longer." When the old monk with white eyebrows talked about the old monk, there was a lot of admiration in his eyes. He reminded softly: "You should be more polite. After all, senior also gave guidance to my senior brother.
Yes, otherwise those things wouldn’t have happened.”
Listening to this, the dean did not say anything. The national preceptor of the Liang Dynasty, who is now deceased, has always been called the demon monk. Although Luming Temple and the Liang Dynasty had a close relationship, they had no idea about this matter.
He has always been vague about it, and not many people know about this matter.
But according to what the white-browed old monk said now, that is the senior brother he is talking about. Although he has a master in name, he is actually the disciple of that senior. Whether it is Buddhism or cultivation, or
It's something else, all passed down by that senior.
The dean said: "It looks like I have to go somewhere else."
The white-browed old monk looked at him without saying anything.
But there are many problems in his eyes.
The dean said: "He is of royal blood."
This secret was told to him by Emperor Liang, and he never told anyone.
The old monk with white eyebrows frowned, and then he remembered that when he saw that young man before, no wonder he felt that he had some similarities with the emperor.
"Is it the blood of the former prince?"
Old people who have experienced that period of time will often not mention the deposed emperor, but will mention the deposed emperor’s father, who was never the first prince of the Liang Emperor and was the favorite of Emperor Lingzong.
If heirs had not died early, this world would not belong to the Emperor of Liang.
"When the fire broke out, did the deposed emperor have a way to escape from his shell?"
The white-browed old monk quickly shook his head and retorted: "Since my senior brother was there at the time, how could such a thing happen?"
No matter what other people think of the Daliang Imperial Master, for the white-browed old monk, that senior brother has always been the person he admires the most, and he believes in him unconditionally.
"It's another one, Bastard."
The dean shook his head, and after saying this, he was not ready to speak again.
The white-browed old monk said worriedly: "I'm afraid this matter cannot be hidden."
Although only a few people know about this matter now, it is obvious that these things cannot be hidden. Once this matter is known to many people in the world, some problems will definitely arise.
"There are still many problems in Daliang Dynasty. No matter how big a ship is in a strong wind, it will sometimes sway."
The white-browed old monk's face became a little ugly. He didn't think about anything for Daliang Chao. He just thought of his senior brother and what he had done for Daliang Chao, and he felt a little sad.
The dean sneered and said, "Why bother yourself?"
"What's the road ahead? Just go over there and see."
The dean shook his head and left the pavilion, but did not go north.
He went south again.
There are some things that you don’t need to worry about, but how can you not worry about them?
