Not long after Zhang Yu sent Cao Liang away, another person came to visit. This person he was familiar with was Wu Chang, the dean of the Miguang Taoist sect who had been assigned to Kaiyang Academy.
This person also brought a handwritten letter from the leader of the Miguang Taoist sect. The conditions were almost the same as those of the Hongshan Taoist sect. It is conceivable that the two sects must have reached an agreement before this.
Although these two factions have been rivals since their establishment, they will definitely try to rely on each other when faced with situations that oppress their own fundamental interests.
He also agreed to the conditions of the Miguang Taoist sect. Again, it is not the time to completely resolve these two Taoist sects, but this matter must eventually be resolved.
After sending Wu Chang away, he thought for a while. After the two factions got his reply, it would not take long for the investigation of the Nightmare to come to an end.
But the matter does not end here. Nightmares are always lingering in the sky above Qingyang Shangzhou. People who are not infected now do not mean they will be fine in the future, so the supervision cannot be relaxed at all.
And the land of a continent is so vast that it is impossible for a monk to fly to the sky and escape to the earth, not just a mortal who lives in a corner of the land, and it is impossible for him to take care of it by himself.
Fortunately, according to Xuanzheng's rights and responsibilities, he can appoint certain monks as Congzheng to help him monitor the entire Xuanfu.
He thought that the matter could be left to the Xinhui Taoist sect for the time being.
This is not because this Taoist sect is the first Taoist sect to take the initiative to surrender to him. The main reason is that this sect has stricter requirements on character and is not easily contaminated by nightmares.
He made up his mind, and after checking the two factions, he started to arrange the matter.
Just when he was about to go back to the quiet room to adjust his breath, Li Qinghe came to report and called him Yingzhuan. Hui Yuanwu and a monk named Li Mo came to visit.
He was surprised. He didn't expect that the two people would come together. He asked Li Qinghe to prepare tea. He got off the balcony and walked into the guest room. He saw Ying Zhuan, Hui Yuanwu and a man wearing a robe.
The monks in black smocks were waiting there.
When the three of them saw him arriving, they all stood up and saluted.
After Zhang Yu and the other three people saw the ceremony, he first looked at Ying Zhuan and said, "Friend Ying Zhuan, we said goodbye two years ago. It's been a few months. How are you doing lately?"
Ying Zhuan said: "Now we have a place to stay."
Zhang Yu looked at Hui Yuanwu again and said: "My Taoist friend Guanhui has a bad air, and there is a gloomy look between his eyebrows, but what difficult things have he encountered recently?"
Hui Yuanwu sighed and said, "Xuan Zheng is right." He raised his hand and said, "Hui is here because he has many things to report to Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu nodded, and said to Ying Zhuan and the monk: "You two, please sit here for a while." Then he said to Hui Yuanwu: "Fellow Taoist, follow me."
He brought Hui Yuanwu into the study and said, "There are no outsiders here. Fellow Taoist, if you have anything to say, you can tell me."
Huiyuan Martial Arts: "After I heard about the imperial edict from Xuanting, I always wanted to come to Xuanzheng, but Qi Yu always disagreed, and even persuaded me to go to Wan Ming, who also disliked various sects. I thought this person was the same.
A fellow Taoist, I never expected that this person had other plans and even sent people to intercept and kill me on my way back. If it hadn't been for the rescue of my Yingdao friends, I would have died in the ruins."
He recounted in detail all the things he had encountered among Wanming Taoists, and told a piece of news that he was not very sure about: "I heard from Qi Yu that there seem to be many Taoist sects outside the territory that are related to Taoist sects outside the territory.
As it is implicated, Taoist sects within the region have actually been manipulated by Taoist sects outside the region, and we don’t know whether it is true or not.”
Zhang Yu's eyes moved slightly. To say that the Taoist sects within the territory are all controlled by the Taoist sects outside the territory is an exaggeration. However, the Prosecutor's Office has always suspected that the communication channels between the Hongshan and Miguang sects and other continents are provided by the Taoist sects outside the territory, and
It is possible to use this to control the Taoist sects in the domain and obtain benefits from within Qingyang Shangzhou.
As for the matter of Taoist Wan Ming, he would not just listen to Hui Yuanwu's words. He would try to confirm it next.
After asking a few more questions, he asked Li Qinghe to arrange a place for Hui Yuanwu to live in the academy, then walked out of the study, returned to the guest room, apologized to the two people waiting here, and then
He sat down on the main seat.
He chatted with Ying Zhuan for a few words, and then he realized that the man next to him, Li Mo, was one of the leaders of his station. This man took advantage of the conversation and gave him a hand, sat up straight and said: "Xuanzheng, this time I am talking to Ying Zhuan."
I came here with my friend because I have an urgent matter that I feel I must report to the Xuan Mansion."
Zhang Yu saw his serious expression and realized that the matter was not simple. He nodded and said, "Fellow Taoist, please speak."
Li Mo said: "Back then, several of my fellow Taoists and I established a base outside the territory for the convenience of practicing Taoism. Recently, because the tide has receded, we have been able to go further. Half a month ago, I and a few of my colleagues set up a base outside the territory.
When we were chasing down a strange god together, we undoubtedly entered a ruins, but when we entered it, we discovered that it was most likely a 'gap'!"
Zhang Yu's eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "'Boundary gap'? Can Fellow Taoist confirm it?"
According to past understanding, the arrival of the turbid tide caused the world to be "broken".
A certain view is that this fragmentation is actually caused by the expansion of the world. In the past, once such drastic changes occurred, it would cause the prosperity and destruction of civilization.
The past six epochs have all been like this.
However, not all places in the world will change as a result. Some places will still maintain the appearance of a certain era, or even several eras ago, due to some special reasons.
The existence of this kind of boundary is called "boundary gap". In Tianxia's written records, it is called "Lingguan".
And because these boundaries maintain their old appearance, this means that by traveling along these boundaries, people from one place can go to another place far away in a relatively short period of time.
Imagine that if another Tianxia Shangzhou could be found at the other end of this gap, its value would be inestimable.
Li Mo didn't say anything at this time. He only said: "Because we were afraid of encountering danger, we didn't go too deep into it, and we can't be completely sure. It's just that the situation there is very similar to the description in the records."
Zhang Yu said at this time: "The value of the gap is self-evident. Once confirmed, Li Daoyou's residence may have an exclusive channel for external communication. Hasn't Li Daoyou ever thought of monopolizing this place?"
Li Mo shook his head and sighed: "To be honest with Xuan Zheng, I did have similar thoughts at that time. Until a few days ago, I was still hesitating. But I know better that if that place is really remembered,
Based on our strength, it is impossible to occupy the 'Lingguan' on the mountain. On the contrary, it may bring disaster to our station. The day before yesterday, Fellow Daoist Ying happened to escort Fellow Daoist Hui to Xuanzheng. After thinking about it over and over,
I still feel that this matter needs to be reported to Xuanfu."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. The practice of Hunxiu is to fight against all kinds of thoughts and desires. It is very easy to fall into chaos. Li Mo seemed to have lost a lot in front of his eyes, but he restrained his greed very quickly.
But it is a huge step forward in the cultivation of mental state.
He said: "Besides Daoyou Li and Daoyou Ying, how many people know about this matter?"
Li Mo said: "I discovered this boundary with three fellow Taoists, but their opinions are not consistent with mine, and I suspect that someone has revealed the information to 'Shuangzhou'."
"Shuangzhou?"
This is the first time Zhang Yu has heard of this place.
Li Mo explained: "Shuangzhou is the self-proclaimed name of a group of huge forces from the depths of the wilderness, but we guess that behind those people are probably the two states and counties that were left behind in Qingyang Shangzhou. Because they don't care
Whether it is the creation techniques or the military regulations, they are all the same as those in Qingyang Shangzhou.
Shuangzhou has been persuading us to join them for a long time, and recently they have been coming more frequently in this name, so I think they may already know something."
Zhang Yu thought for a moment, looked at him and said, "I know about this, and I will try to confirm that there may be a place to work for fellow Daoist Li next."
Li Mo hurriedly said: "I don't dare. Although I am practicing outside the territory, I still consider myself a Xuanfu monk. If Xuanzheng has any request, just ask."
The conversation between the three lasted for more than a summer. After Zhang Yu sent them both away, he sat there and thought deeply.
Nowadays, apart from the "Xuanwang" established by Xuanting, there are mainly three types of communication channels between the two provinces.
The first is to work hard to find a passage in the turbid tide, but it may take several years to go back and forth, and various accidents are likely to occur along the way.
The second is to enter other places through the "outer layer", but this road is not easy to walk, so it is usually only used for message transmission. This is also the most used external communication channel between the two governments.
The third method is to take advantage of the "boundary gap".
He had previously imagined that Xuanfu must have its own channel for external communication, so that it could talk to Zhoufu and Junfu on an equal footing.
Otherwise, in the long run, the two palaces will only rely on Xuanfu. Although Xuanfu has the highest position in the ritual system, sometimes it will be affected by various special circumstances.
He still remembers what the Dongting Protectorate looked like back then.
He believed in his heart that this place must be explored as soon as possible. If it was indeed the "spiritual pass" recorded in the records, then he must try to get it in his hands, and he himself felt that it was necessary to go there for confirmation.
But there seems to be other forces coveting this place, so we have to be careful.
But since this matter was planned for the Xuanfu, he could seek help from Zhu Xuanshou.
This is the only high-ranking monk in the Qingyang Shangzhou Continent. If you can get the support of this person, then this matter will be relatively easy.
After settling down, he explained to Li Qinghe and stepped out of the golden platform. He glanced up and immediately rose into the sky, turning into a blue rainbow and heading towards Qingyang Xuanfu.
