From the time Hou Zi started moving on the second day he took office to the time he returned from his visit, Dushan had undergone earth-shaking changes in a full year.
Nearly half of Quanzhen sword cultivators participated in the construction of the mountain gate, which gave them a deeper sense of belonging to Dushan. This was something that Quanzhen senior officials did not expect.
There are several small glaciers near Dushan. Over thousands of years, extremely thick layers of ancient ice have been formed. It is a good material for construction. It is crystal clear and extremely hard, comparable to jade.
There are monks who are responsible for cutting ice in the glacier, cutting it into large and small ice cubes, and even accept customization with size requirements. Simple ice cubes of several feet long and wide are cut and shaped under the monk's sword.
There are also monks responsible for transportation, using boats and rafts to carry them around the clock.
The construction team headed by Wu Zhenren began to make on-the-spot planning on several peaks of Dushan. At least as a whole, it must be clearly layered and well-proportioned. It cannot be crowded or empty.
He thought that the architectural drawings he had accumulated over hundreds of years would only remain on the drawings for the rest of his life, but he never expected that there would be opportunities for on-site construction. How could he not try his best?
The main hall group, the side hall group, the functional building group, and the living building group. In just one year, some of the main buildings have begun to take shape. It can be seen that Wu Zhenren has great ambitions. To build a beautiful mountain gate that is second to none does not mean that
Just say it, he really wanted to do it.
Special building materials also gave him the confidence to do so. Take the Ice and Snow Sword Pavilion, the core building of the main palace complex, as an example. Although this rectangular building is far from being completed, the frame is already very huge, three hundred feet long and one hundred feet wide.
Twenty feet high and sixty feet high, Hou Zi was worried about whether the ice stored in the glacier was enough.
This was no longer the main hall. It could even accommodate a group of sword cultivators to fight swords inside without being restricted by space. He felt it was a bit excessive, but there was nothing he could say, so he had to let them go.
Next to the Ice and Snow Sword Pavilion, there are dozens of side halls to guard and guard, which are also large in size; the ones that have been fully constructed are several of the most commonly used side halls, including the Six Imperial Palaces where tasks are distributed, the Zhenzang Palace where the martial arts books are stored, and the great medicine refining hall.
The Danding Hall, the Yaoguang Hall, the Tongtian Hall...
Of course, what has been completed is only a rough outline. There are still too many things that need to be polished slowly. It cannot be completed overnight. Think of this today and think of that tomorrow.
Through construction, the Quanzhen Sect successfully established the prototype of the sword spirit in Dushan, a bitter and cold place. Although this would waste a lot of their time and delay the practice of swordsmanship, Hou Zi believed that it was worth it. For swordsmen, the spiritual power
It is always the first priority, and cohesion is more important than anything else, especially when the gate is newly established and new regulations are emerging one after another.
To be honest, his reforms were a bit rash, stemming from his fear of the future. The idea was good, but progressing too quickly would cause disunity among his disciples, and not everyone could understand all of this.
Thank God, the construction of Shanmen was a big help to him, and Wu Zhenren played the most important role in it.
In a sense, architecture can also represent an era and has a long-lasting heritage. It also helped him get through the most difficult period after he first took power.
It cannot be said that we are completely on the right track, but everything is indeed returning to order; as time goes by, the construction tasks will slow down slightly, and personal swordsmanship practice will be put on the agenda to achieve a certain balance.
Ten years is only the most basic forming time. It can probably only form the atmosphere on the main peak of Dushan. There is still a long way to go in the future.
In the Ice and Snow Main Palace, which has not yet been topped out, Quanzhen senior officials gathered together. On the one-year anniversary of the establishment of the mountain gate, they need to set more realistic and feasible goals for the future. Although few people admit it, everyone is still looking forward to the future prospects. With the leader's vision, he indeed brought different things and concepts to Yanmen Quanzhen.
Now, no one in the religion will ever mention the topic of returning to Yujing. The appeal of the cultivation sect Shanmen is beyond everyone’s imagination. This is the cultivation sect, and this is what it looks like to become an immortal. The pattern of Yujing and now Compared with Dushan, there is no comparability at all.
That was a huge difference in temperament. When the old people like them were still hesitating and hesitating, the almost barbaric mandatory order of the leader changed everything.
Leader Hou stood in the main hall of ice and snow, raising his head and looking at it, but he couldn't understand.
"Master Wu, I admire your courage, but I don't understand how you can cap such a large span on the top of the palace without using pillars, beams or other materials. It's three hundred feet long and one hundred feet wide. Twenty feet, what do you think?"
Wu Zhenren stroked his long beard and dismissed the ignorant junior, "Why do you need to seal the ceiling? Do you really want to seal yourself up and become a caged bird? If we don't seal the ceiling, we will isolate it with a magic circle. It is close to nature and convenient. When it comes to entering and exiting, the gate is just a decoration and is used for ceremonies. Normally you can just jump in and no one will stop you."
Hou Tzu couldn't help laughing, bowed his head and thanked him, "The younger generation needs to be taught, but I am too small."
Xu Zhenren did not let him go, "He has been in the job for one year and only stayed at Shanmen for three months. The leader seems to have forgotten his identity?"
Hou Zi was speechless. He wanted to say that the leader of the Qingkong Sword Meridian Sect was just a decoration or a mascot, but it was not appropriate to say so now, because he still had many ideas that had not been realized, and he could not do without power for the time being.
"Isn't this a fool's errand? As long as you guys are in charge of the mountain gate, nothing big will happen."
Master Hai ignored him and said, "Before you are promoted to Yuanying, you must be accompanied by Master Yuanying when you travel. This is not a big deal; chaos is coming in the world of cultivation, and there are many crazy people who really think that they can just walk away on the mainland. ?”
After enduring repeated bombardments from the real people, everyone finally got to the point. There were too many things to consider and feasible solutions to be come up with, including the scale of the mountain gate system, the organizational structure of the church, and the staffing of each functional hall. The basic rules of describing merits and appreciation, handling of external relations, and the most important discussion of scabbard swordsmanship...
Hou Zi did one thing during this trip, "As for the Splendid Alliance of Immortals, the current scale is only Yunzhang Huaxue and Northwest Qinmen. In the future, the teaching will have more contacts in this area; regarding the Golden Bloodline of the Grassland, To deepen the relationship between each other, we can no longer let things take their own course. I think that having dozens of Jindan from each faction stationed in each other is the best way to understand each other. In the future, when we fight together, we will have two fists."
The real people have no objections, especially after the Prairie Sword Meridian de facto annihilation of the country, they were very surprised by these prairie people and wanted to know their specific situation. Communication is the only way. If the entire continent uses Jinxiu If we call them Jianmai, they are actually a family.
