284: The general trend is no longer, the chess player is seated
The old man smiled, with a cold look in his eyes: "If they are unwilling to bow their heads, then don't take their heads. At this point, the best strategy is to win over them, the middle strategy is to suppress them without destroying them, and the worst strategy is to kill them all.
No matter which strategy, the initiative lies in the hands of the imperial court. All they can do is choose, either bow their heads or die..."
The gentle policy is to take the overall situation into consideration, but the court is never short of thunderous means.
Before fighting against the outside world, one must first pacify the inside. If these scourges are left with evil intentions, it is better to kill them at the expense of the losses.
Speaking of this, the old man suddenly sighed: "Also, no one expected that Tang Yun could do these things. It was not in everyone's expectation. This time, he acted in a hurry and was completely unprepared."
Zhou Xun asked abruptly: "In other words, Tang Yun's great achievements are likely to fall short?"
The old man smiled bitterly and nodded: "So I asked you to persuade him more. Although he is very sophisticated and smart, he is still too young. I am afraid that he will not be able to control his temper for a while."
"If Tang Yun knows your intentions, he will definitely want to make life difficult for you in the future." Zhou Xun gritted his teeth. In fact, it was not just him. Most of the people in the Zhenwu Pavilion basically had grudges with the sect members.
Especially with the implementation of the martial arts system, the sect's deterrent power has plummeted. The Zhenwu Pavilion can be said to have beaten the lost dog hard and felt proud.
Assuming that sects like Leiyin Temple bow their heads and are willing to accept recruitment, then they will definitely put these people into the Zhenwu Pavilion and gradually divide them.
assimilation?
It's easy to say, but it doesn't make sense at all if it takes less than ten years, or even dozens or hundreds of years. Don't forget that it took so long for the previous dynasty to fall, and a group of remnants still pop up from time to time to cause trouble?
If we continue to deduce this, the situation is likely to be that the Zhenwu Pavilion headquarters is hostile to these sect warriors. The bottom level does not need to worry too much. After all, the base of low-level warriors is very large, and the sect warriors cannot have much influence, but the middle and high levels are completely different.
And Tang Yun was the culprit responsible for the sect's decline.
Even if you think about it from the bottom of your head, for the sake of future development, these sect members will definitely squeeze out and suppress him, and even use conspiracy and tricks to get Tang Yun out, or even... kill him.
Tang Yun couldn't think of it?
joke!
Since he can think of this level, just relying on Zhou Xun's persuasion, is there a hammer?
At this level, you still give me chicken soup? Who are you fooling?
Based on Zhou Xun's understanding of Tang Yun, this guy would never endure it any longer and would definitely take countermeasures. After all, this was related to his official career and even his life.
"I can't do it, please ask someone wiser." Zhou Xun shook his head, drank the wine in the glass, turned around and left the carriage without giving the other party a chance to speak.
"You..." The old man was a little angry that Zhou Xun was so reckless as to become the Lord of Thunder Fire State, regardless of the overall situation.
Tang Yun and others waited quietly outside the city, his eyes slightly lowered, as if he was closing his eyes and concentrating on something.
As the carriage driving out of the jungle appeared in the distance, he suddenly took a deep breath, put a smile on his face, and looked up at the motorcade.
Meeting, greetings, introductions, and drinking for three rounds are all necessary procedures.
When the reception banquet was over, the old man looked at Zhou Xun meaningfully, smiled and said goodbye to Tang Yun, and left.
Zhou Xun frowned and whispered, "Take me to the study. I have something to discuss with you."
"Okay, sir, come with me." Tang Yun smiled and led him through the main hall and to the study in the side courtyard.
Zhou Xun didn't delay too much and told the story directly. At the end, he didn't forget to add: "What are you going to do?"
"What do you want me to do?" Tang Yun asked.
"I have no idea."
Zhou Xun shook his head and sighed, found a seat to sit down, and murmured: "The Zhenwu Pavilion has two responsibilities, one is to suppress evil spirits and demons, and the other is to suppress the sects of aristocratic families.
But nowadays, things are unpredictable, and no one could have expected that the situation would develop to this point, and that such a powerful enemy as the sect would one day fall to this point."
Tang Yun smiled slightly: "It looks like I'm trapped in a cocoon."
"A bit." Zhou Xun looked up at him, met his eyes, and suddenly smiled.
Just laugh.
"Have you ever thought about it, sir?"
Tang Yun pursed his lips and said softly: "The most amazing talents in the world are like the crucian carp crossing the river, and the beautiful talents are like the stars in the sky. After so many years, no one really thought of learning from the imperial examination to develop martial arts?"
"Of course there is."
Zhou Xun nodded slightly: "But the success failed several times. The weather is not there, the location is not right, and people and people alone cannot achieve anything, let alone people and people are not always there."
Don't really think that Tang Yun was the first person to propose this measure.
In fact, someone had proposed it more than once before him.
The reason for the failure is exactly what Zhou Xun said.
The heavenly hour was not there, and there was no great tribulation in the Forbidden Land at that time.
The geographical advantage was not there, and the imperial court was based on the world and could not cause too many troubles. Later, he was stabbed by the sect, and he suffered heavy losses and was powerless.
People and people are not all in the imperial court, and they are limited by their knowledge. They are more inspired by the imperial examinations, but they have not thought about how the martial arts academy operates, how to establish it, how to develop it, etc.
How can this be successful?
Tang Yun's success was due to various factors.
Firstly, the sect went too far and drove the imperial court to anger. Secondly, the system proposed by Tang Yun was a thorough structural chain from large to small, not just an inspiration for suggestions.
Third...Tang Yun took the lead, launched a wave of advance in Longyang County, and achieved results, not just on paper.
Tang Yun said: "The success of the Wuyuan system is also a disaster, and the failure is also a disaster. If there is no disaster approaching, the sect will definitely be more vigilant towards the court. They will hold back the Wuyuan system, making it very difficult to implement.
There was a disaster at play, so they focused their attention on this aspect. They didn't think that the imperial court, which had the power over the world, would confront them so hard. This was because they were caught off guard and lost the opportunity, and were suppressed step by step by the imperial court.
.”
Zhou Xun was stunned for a moment, and then asked in silence: "You don't want to say that when you first proposed the martial arts system, you thought of today, right?"
This is too scary.
"I'm not a god, how could I think so far." Tang Yun was dumbfounded, but then said: "But as long as the sect doesn't want to sit back and wait for death, the situation will reach this point sooner or later."
"I see."
Zhou Xunruo realized something: "The martial arts system is a soft knife, and the private martial arts academy is another knife. If we continue like this, the sect will die sooner or later."
Tang Yun shrugged: "No matter how weak they are, their overall strength is still very strong. Unless it is absolutely necessary, the imperial court will definitely not go to war with them. After all, the fight is refreshing, but the consequences will be too serious."
Zhou Xun's pupils shrank and he murmured: "So you know that once the situation develops to this point, the sect will definitely jump up. But are you sure that the sect will bow its head?"
Tang Yun didn't talk about the immortal cultivators, but said with a smile: "They will do it. If they don't change, they will die. The general trend is with the court and not with them."
Zhou Xun asked and got to the point: "Once they bow their heads and surrender, you will be the first to bear the brunt. You should know this."
"I know." Tang Yun nodded and said with a helpless smile: "But there is no way. It's still the same sentence. This is an irreversible trend."
Zhou Xun said meaningfully: "Most of the Zhenwu Pavilion is our own people."
"A sword does not require self-awareness." Tang Yun shook his head and turned to open the door.
Zhou Xun suddenly realized that this was Tang Yun's secret warning, so he quickly left here without saying anything with serious thoughts.
The Zhenwu Pavilion has a great responsibility. It is a sword in the hands of the emperor. The emperor is the only user. He does not need to let the sword have self-awareness.
Otherwise it will be dangerous~
——
The next day.
Everyone rushed directly to the forbidden area. They wanted to see with their own eyes whether everything in the rumored rather evil picture stone was true.
With a big boss in charge, the monsters will naturally not be able to make any waves, and they will be ignored wherever they go.
All the way to the deepest point, everyone looked at the towering mountain peak not far away, and looked at each other for a while: "This is just an ordinary mountain. Although it is surrounded by volcanoes, it is not a strange thing, right?"
"Cut it open and take a look." Tang Yun said calmly.
The information revealed by Zhou Xun made him understand that those old immortal guys must be angry with each other and 100% have other plans - to use them to their advantage.
Knowing more about the inside story, it was not difficult for Tang Yun to guess their purpose. It was nothing more than pretending to blend in, join forces vertically and horizontally, disintegrate the interior of the court, and then jump back when the disaster broke out, opening the gate to the virtual world to welcome the outside.
That group of immortal cultivators.
Now that we know the purpose, the matter of the Enma in front of us is not that important. After all, no matter the court or the sect, if the bastard looks at Mung Bean now, they have the intention to cooperate. Under such circumstances, the matter of the Enma...
…That’s bullshit.
Holding yourself to death is just a reason to show to the world.
Zhou Xun didn't say anything more, and a burst of true energy burst out from his hand, like a huge blade slashing at the peak. A long sword with golden dragon stripes suddenly appeared behind him, and it roared as if it could cut through the void.
This was Zhou Xun's vision, which was similar to Tang Yun's. They were both visions of death, except that Tang Yun's was a city, while his was a knife.
Click...
Rumble!!!
There were loud noises, gravel rolled down, golden light burst out from it, and the vast Buddha's sound was like a huge tide surging endlessly, revealing a majestic and majestic golden Buddha.
Tang Yun looked at the group of sect warriors with different expressions with a half-smile, and said pointedly: "It doesn't seem to be fake. What do you think?"
One person said bravely: "Perhaps, in order to prevent the monster from resurrecting, Leiyin Temple sent people to suppress the guarding warriors..."
Tang Yun asked faintly: "Aren't all the Fire Demons dead? Who is he suppressing? If it is to suppress monsters, I think Mr. Zhou knows the situation in Leihuo State better. What is the use of him coming here to suppress them? Monsters come out of the country to invade at every turn, and he comes forward to do so.
Yet?"
"There is demonic energy in the Buddha's body."
The old man suddenly spoke up, suppressing the argument between the two parties, and slapped him down with a slap. Poor Yan Buddha didn't even fully wake up to consciousness, and was directly slapped to pieces by the big man.
Yan Hong, or the Flame Demon.
His true form was finally revealed, with surging demonic energy, strong pressure, and a ferocious appearance.
The place fell into silence.
The sectarians already knew the truth, but they had to pretend not to know.
The old man and others looked happy. This matter was not fabricated, so they would have a more sufficient excuse to put pressure on Leiyin Temple.
Zhou Xun's expression was heavy because he had anticipated what would happen next. The Zhenwu Pavilion would take in most of the sect warriors, and the imperial court, which had finally formed a unified situation, would fall apart again because of these people.
Tang Yun watched with cold eyes. He knew a lot. He knew more than people like Zhou Xun, the old man, and the sect. He had known about what was going on here for a long time, but he naturally had his purpose in revealing it at this time.
In Tang Yun's words: "The heat has arrived."
"Damn Leiyin Temple!" The old man was happy in his heart and angry on his face. He shouted loudly and didn't even give Yan Yang a chance to speak. He jumped into the air and wanted to take it down.
When the people from the sect saw this, they all looked at each other and rushed forward in the name of helping.
They knew exactly what was going on with Yan Yang. In order to prevent this guy from revealing any bad news, they had to seize the opportunity to kill him and avoid... falling short of success.
Each party has its own thoughts and everyone has its own plans.
Everyone has selfish motives and everyone wants to gain benefits.
This moment~
The battle was in full swing, but it couldn't resist the collision of ideas.
The momentum is vast and majestic, but it cannot compare to selfish plans.
It really fits the saying: Life is like a play, it all depends on your acting skills.
Tang Yun watched all this silently, as if he was watching a play or listening to music, with a sparkle in his eyes: "The game of chess has begun. The sects have entered the trap, the court is in conflict, the chess players have already taken their seats, and then it depends on their own methods."
Who has the last laugh?
…
Yan Yang is dead, completely dead.
With so many fifth-level bosses attacking him and a sixth-level one, it would be strange if Yan Yang didn't die.
The old man was very angry because he wanted to arrest him alive to put pressure on Leiyin Temple. This way, the success rate would naturally be higher. He thought that these sect warriors were acting under the guise of helping and deliberately killed Yan Yang.
.
He guessed correctly.
The people in the sect really wanted to silence them, but it was not for the reason that the old man thought, but because they were afraid that Yan Yang would reveal information about the immortal cultivators.
To the old man's relief, Zhou Xun held the photo stone in his hand and recorded all of this. With this thing, he could achieve his goal.
The group of people had their own thoughts and quickly rushed to Leiyin Temple.
The benefactor, Kong Ming, had already received the advice from those old immortals, and was well prepared for the imperial court's instigation of troops to investigate.
He summoned the people from Leiyin Temple and put on a wonderful show after the people from Zhenwu Pavilion arrived.
It's nothing more than taking all the responsibility on myself. I did something wrong in a moment of confusion, and now I regret it, so I have to step down as the temple master and seal myself in seclusion for the rest of my life...
Faced with Kong Ming's behavior, Zhenwu Pavilion would naturally not give up. The words he spoke sharply and truthfully were as sharp as a sword, making it clear that this matter was not something that you, the temple master, could have done. It must have been the conspiracy of everyone in Leiyin Temple.
Ever since~
In the end, Kongming was forced to show his attitude and let Leiyin Temple bow his head to the court and let the court arrange it.
