Zhao Ran was sitting in the abbot's courtyard of Tianhe Palace, taking stock of the other three monks and abbots serving in the same batch.
Zhuo Tengyun is an old acquaintance. When Zhao Ran was still in Wujiyuan, he had taken care of him and followed him to Wutang to catch monsters. For the first time, he saw the style of practitioners fighting. To this day, he still remembers this
A powerful magic spell cast by Master Da Zhuo.
From his perspective today, the magic of Uncle Dazhuo, who was still in the Huangguan realm, was indeed not very good, but it did open a door for him to understand the world of practice.
Uncle Dazhuo has been a Taoist monk for several years and has a good understanding of things in the mortal world. This is his advantage - compared to other monks. His shortcomings are also obvious. He is the direct successor of Huayun Pavilion.
Our ancestors, the Qing monks of Taoism, had not experienced the experience of Shifang Jungle, so they did not know much about the Taoist fasting rituals.
In this regard, Zhao Ran actually hopes that Zhu Meng will serve as the abbot of Xizhenwu Palace. However, it is a pity that Zhu Meng has been crowned so far. It is not that easy to break through the golden elixir level. Therefore, Zhu Meng
He can only continue to hang out in the position of abbot of Wujiyuan.
Thinking of Zhu Meng, Zhao Ran pondered that he might want to visit his roommate when he had time and find out what was wrong with him staying in Huangguan Realm for six years. Well, it was actually only six years. This is really
is not a problem.
Pei Zhongze is the most accomplished among the four palace abbots. He also served as a Taoist priest, and also served as the abbot of Shehong County Courtyard in Tongchuan Prefecture. He should be a more experienced one.
As for Granny Ye Xing of Baoning Prefecture, Zhao Ran had never met her or even heard of it. But from what he thought, the problem with this female cultivator was probably not just that she didn't understand the rituals of fasting, but even how to do it.
When dealing with Taoist priests in Taoist palaces, there will be big problems in how to play the role of an abbot.
For the sake of the overall situation of Sichuan Province and the increase of Sichuan Province's credibility, Zhao Ran couldn't help but wonder if he could find an opportunity to meet with those three people and communicate with each other?
There is no need for Tongchuan Mansion to worry, but Uncle Dazhuo and Granny Ye Xing, especially Granny Ye Xing, must not cause any trouble and become a negative example, thus interfering with the reform of Taoism in the entire Sichuan Province.
process.
While he was thinking about it, Bai Tengming came to the door in person.
"Zhiran, the overview is here again."
Zhao Ran was stunned, and was secretly surprised. Zhang Yuanji's movements were too fierce, right? The third fire had just been burned, and now the fourth fire was starting?
After taking a look at the official document handed over by Bai Tengming, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Not angry, but applauded!
This fourth fire is to hold a lecture hall for the monks who are performing their duties. The lecture hall is located in the capital and will convene the monks who are performing their duties to study there, once a year, and each period will study for half a year. The overall plan is to hold it for five consecutive years.
, strive to train all monks who serve as abbots in rotation.
This is an excellent idea, and it is in line with Zhao Ran's behavior and habits. Zhao Ran can't help but secretly guess that there are experts around Zhang Yuanji!
Taking a closer look at the edict, the first session will be held on July 1st and will end at the end of December. The teaching hall is divided into advanced training classes and general training classes. The training targets of the advanced training classes are all thirty-six newly promoted students this year.
The abbot of the Mingfu Palace and the training target of the general training class are the abbots of the county colleges. Each province is required to dispatch six abbots of the county colleges to participate in the rotation training.
The edict also provides clear punitive measures for those who refuse to go to the lecture hall for further training. If each province fails to report the required number of people for rotation training, the quota of credit points for that year will be significantly reduced, and one less person will be reduced by two million Gui. In other words
, if no one in Sichuan participates in rotation training this year, the trust value retained by the province will be directly reduced by 20 million Gui. As for the reduction of Yuhuang Pavilion or a certain house or museum, Yuhuang Pavilion will handle it on its own.
This is a very severe punitive measure. The introduction of this measure also marks that the General View has embarked on a path of strictness in the management of spiritual temples and pavilions in various provinces.
Zhao Ran shouted to Bai Teng: "This edict is indeed good and can have very good effects."
Bai Tengming said: "Zhiran will be away for half a year, and I can't bear to leave. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Temple did not transfer Songfan's county abbot, otherwise, if they all left, I wouldn't be able to move here."
But Zhao Ran himself still has some doubts about this, or he has a guilty conscience. Why is the teaching hall not in Lushan but in the capital? The dishes in the Shangsan Palace in the capital are a bit difficult to deal with. Although they are all dishes, but in the capital
It is always not safe to get a vegetable patch, not to mention that there are high-end dishes and low-end dishes. If a high-end dish wants to come and embarrass him, it will not be easy to handle.
With this question in mind, he contacted his strategic partner Jiuniang, who quickly gave a clear answer.
"As an abbot, you need to learn a lot of things, especially the connection issues with the imperial court and the government. You must learn to smoke the fireworks of the world. Isn't this also the experience you talked about with me back then? In the future, the teaching hall will be permanently located in Taoism.
It’s the official registration department, so it’s normal to hold it in the capital.”
"Did you come up with these ideas?"
"I'm just a small and weak woman, how can I be qualified to participate in such a big decision? I just made some small suggestions. Of course, the overall view has the final say whether to adopt them or not."
"Haha, okay...are you going?"
"Of course I will go, and I will discuss and discuss with you then."
With Miss Jiu's reply, Zhao Ran felt relieved.
There are still about twenty days before the registration date designated by the imperial edict. For lay people, this time is a little tight, but for monks, it is more than enough. Even without flying magic weapons, it is enough.
.
Therefore, Zhao Ran was not in a hurry. An Anwen and Bai Tengming discussed the arrangements for the six months after he left, appointed Qu Fenghe to assist Tianhe Palace in holding a fast festival, and then returned to Maharaja Mountain.
First, he met with the teacher and his wife and informed them of the overall arrangements. The two old men did not express much about this at first. Zhao Ran was busy with mundane affairs all day long, and they were used to it. Only when they heard that the lecture was being held in the capital.
Only then did the Sutra Hall become solemn.
Jiang Tenghe said: "We are not very good at dealing with Shangsangong. When you get there, try to avoid getting into trouble with them. After all, it is too far away from Songfan. If something goes wrong, water far away cannot quench the thirst of the people nearby, even if you kill them all afterwards.
It won't help. Just be patient and half a year will pass. Of course, if you are really in an emergency, you can ask Du Tianshi of Zhejiang Lingxu Pavilion for help. Maybe he can help. As for Zhang Yuanji, I don't think he is so confused as to deliberately
It’s hard for you.”
Zhao Liniang didn't give many instructions. She just took out a magic talisman and handed it to Zhao Ran: "This is Huang Tingzong's real thunder talisman. It is at the sixth level. When you encounter a difficult opponent, you can defeat it. It will count as a refiner level."
Even the monks can't stop it. It's an excellent way to save one's life, and it's very difficult to refine. This is what my ancestor left for me before he ascended. I only have three here. Take this one and use it as a talisman when fighting for your life.
Even though it’s rare, don’t be stingy when you need to use it.”
Zhao Ran happily took it and put it away, and said goodbye to the teacher and his wife.
