It's very complicated. The situation is probably that the two more promising candidates for the head of the hospital are not convinced by the public, and there are still a group of people who are dissatisfied with everyone, so they try to make trouble. They can't find a suitable candidate, so they recommend Zhao.
The pupils of the heart come out to muddy the waters.
Over the years, although she has kept herself clean, her extremely high popularity among Taoist disciples has still aroused the jealousy of many people. It is not a good thing to recommend her. No matter who of the two real candidates comes to power in the end, they will all be jealous.
It's not good for her.
For her, it's just too lazy to argue. It's no big deal if they agree to stay or if they don't agree, go. It's just a pity that some of her cultivation and exploration here are. In terms of resources, it's hard to find a better place than Hongye Taoist Temple.
.
The star observatory that is almost piled up with resources, the large mysterious magic circle, the pursuit of ancient mysterious artifacts... Many people think that divination is the most economical practice, and they play around with it to count turtle shells.
...This is wrong. Maybe the hexagrams will be simplified in the end, but the consumption in the early stage is extremely shocking.
The consumption of alchemy is also staggering, but at least there is still output; but how to calculate the output of hexagram? Many times, once the calculation is done, one does not dare to tell others easily, and it is wasted in vain.
She was tired of the internal strife in Hongye Taoist Temple, but also couldn't leave such a perfect training environment for the time being. This was the reason for her inner struggle.
Just like the current Autumn Appreciation Conference, it is also an opportunity for several candidates who are interested in Hongye Dean to build connections with each other. Since you want to compete for this Dean, strong connections are essential, which represents the resources that can be obtained after taking office in the future.
A place that can be recommended, funding that can be solicited, and a well-connected head of the hospital are of great importance to the future destination of the Taoist disciples.
Among the three candidates, the first two have worked hard at Hongye Taoist Temple for many years. This time, they spared no effort in order to ascend to the top. They tried their best to attract many monks from Taoist sects, including those from Taihao and various Taoist sects.
, and there are many from the side sects of the Demon Sect.
Most of these people are in the Tongxuan realm, a few are in the spiritual realm, and there are also some third-level monks in the natural realm. They may not be the core of their respective Taoist traditions, but to these Taoist disciples, they are already high mountains.
Stop and be regarded as an example of successful people in cultivation.
Hundreds of monks gathered in various places, which seemed to be a grand gathering, but only those inside knew that such a gathering was not even a party, but just a loose gathering of parents.
The two candidates were evenly matched in terms of connections, but the third candidate was silent. Not to mention that Zhao Xintong didn’t have many connections, even if she had them, she wouldn’t use them boringly. For her who had no intention of competing,
, these are meaningless.
The long night is coming to an end, and the lackluster performance and preaching are coming to an end. Perhaps the monks who came on stage did not have this in mind, so they seemed to be perfunctory and hasty.
The whole night of Taoist demonstrations was not only unmotivated by the upper class practitioners, but also very boring for the Taoist disciples. For these low-level cultivators, they also hope to select a candidate they truly support, not one who is old-fashioned and old-fashioned.
It is heavy, but full of vitality, which is pleasing to the eye.
Next is the most prestigious event of the Hongye Taoist Autumn Appreciation Conference - Fables and Prophecies. In previous conferences, monks were randomly selected to debate each other. They could be Taoist masters or guests from far away, but this time because it concerns the academy
There is a battle for the first place, so the organizers have reached a consensus in private to choose between the three candidates.
It can also be regarded as a comparison of the level of Taoism and enlightenment of several people in front of everyone.
Because there were only three of them participating, there was not much time left for them. The debate did not need to be too complicated, but needed to have subtle insights and get to the essence.
Because the questions are randomly selected, there is no possibility of preparation in advance. They are compared based on their experience, cultivation, intellectual vision, and the most important expression ability for those who teach.
The world of cultivation is full of teapots that cannot pour out dumplings. Such people are not suitable to be teachers.
Now the head of the vocational school stood up, his hair was gray, and even his practice could no longer cover up the traces left on his body by the years. It was time to leave and live in his old age.
With a touch of his hand, with the help of a special magic circle, Red Leaf City and its surrounding dozens of kilometers were reflected in the image, gradually returning to one point, and the scene gradually
clear,
It was a village temple outside Hongye City that worshiped mountain gods. It was a palm-sized place, dilapidated, no longer incense, and a forgotten place. Behind half the earthen wall, there were ghostly figures of foxes and wolves flashing around. They probably felt it instinctively.
What, leave in a hurry.
There was a man lying next to the dusty altar. Judging from his breath, he had been dead for many days. There were still traces of bites on his body. Because his clothes were too ragged and only his back could be seen, he couldn't even be identified.
Are you a man or a woman? Hongye City is relatively wealthy, but even so, there are many people who are homeless and homeless.
Such a real and happening scene is the introduction to debate, and it is also what Hongye Taoist Temple has been advocating. Practice cannot be separated from life, and neither can debate.
The head of the hospital stretched out his hand, and a black-bearded Taoist stood up. He was one of the three candidates.
"This life is miserable, but let's look at reincarnation. The glory of the next life is still uncertain? The vicissitudes of life are over once and for all, the road is over and the lamp is extinguished, and we have to start all over again."
This black-bearded Taoist is talking about reincarnation, which is also the basic understanding of life and death among practitioners.
Another white-robed Taoist also stood up. He was also one of the competitors. "Natural selection, survival of the fittest..."
The long and eloquent speech focuses not on life and death, but on hard work. In one sentence, if you don't work hard, you deserve to die. This is true for mortals, and the same is true for monks.
It was Zhao Xintong's turn. She didn't want to get up. She just took this opportunity to give up and show her attitude. However, the old head of the hospital looked at her with expectant eyes. She didn't want to let the old man down. After all, it was the old head of the house who invited her.
He came back and took care of him in every way.
Reluctantly, she stood up and sighed, "What's really sad is not that others didn't notice that she was dead, but that they didn't even care that she had lived..."
In one sentence, the indifference of the human world was vividly portrayed, and it also killed this brief debate.
The head of the old hospital shook his head, wiped the magic circle again, and another scene appeared in front of everyone. It was a rooster in the village, walking out of the chicken coop and crowing loudly.
Black Beard Taoist, "There are no copper leaks in the village, and the golden rooster is in charge of the watch. A hundred crows have not yet come, but we are waiting for the third one."
White-robed Taoist, "The golden rooster in the sun, the jade rabbit in the moon, adapt to the profit and loss of mysterious phenomena. Invisible good offices, compassion appears in the three realms..." There are two people, one is a secular person, and the other is a Taoist, each with his own emphasis.
It was Zhao Xintong's turn, and she still had the same enthusiasm to kill the debate, "Every chicken thinks that the sun crows by itself..."
