Faced with Zhu Zhimeng's kindness, Zhao Ran was stunned, and then couldn't help but feel a little moved, and thanked Zhu Zhimeng.
Zhu Zhimeng said again: "It's best to try to practice the introductory Taoist method first, so as not to delay it. Let me see if I can find you some Taoist books and you can also learn from them?"
Zhao Ran said: "Dazhuo, Uncle Xiao Zhuo has given me Taoist books, a copy of "Shangqing Jue", as well as "Zhengyi Fufa" and "Utensil Making Manual". I am studying, but I don't know where to go.
I am worthy of being awarded the title of 绯, and my two uncles said they would help me find a solution."
"That's good. I'll write to you when I have time. Then you can reply to me through the three channels of Xizhenwu Palace, and they can contact Huayun Pavilion directly. If you have any questions, you can ask me in the letter.
I know that you are very talented in learning a tao, but after all, I am in the Huayun Pavilion. If you don’t understand it, I can help you ask my master or other uncles or masters."
Zhu Zhimeng left with Master Liang, and the Taoist sects and government officials who came to Songfengling also gradually dispersed. Zhao Ran followed everyone in Wujiyuan back to Wuji Mountain, and after returning, he fell asleep and had a deep sleep - this
He was really tired for a few days, but it wasn't physical fatigue. His cultivation of merits had begun to bear fruit, and at least he had magic power, so this fatigue was not a problem at all. His tiredness was mainly in his heart, but also in his confusion about his future prospects.
.
From the moment he saw Zhang Jianyuan's body, he knew that the reform of Qingmiao Money that he had advocated could not be pushed forward. He had no confidence at all whether it could even be maintained in Guyang County.
He will make plans when he has free time in the past two days. He will soon enter the "refining" level and practice according to the Taoist realm's cultivation methods, which requires a lot of merit. Of course, the first priority is to maintain Guyang County.
The new Qingmiao Qian policy brought him extremely rich returns on merit.
If he couldn't maintain it, he would retreat to the next best thing and focus his energy on clearing up wasteland. He expected that the merit power this matter would bring would not be too small, and it might not necessarily be enough to meet his cultivation needs.
The place where Zhang Jianyuan was assassinated is within Guyang County. This incident is definitely a disaster for the Taoist priests of Wujiyuan. Although it has been deduced that it is a Buddhist demon monk at this moment, it is not something Wujiyuan can handle, but no matter what
, as Wujiyuan, which is in charge of Taoist affairs in the county, cannot shirk its responsibilities. Therefore, from the supervisor, Song Zhiyuan, to the ordinary chanting Taoist boys, including Jin Jiu, they are all very uneasy. They don’t know what kind of consequences they will receive.
punishment.
In order to try their best to reduce the culpability, the entire Wujiyuan took action, blocking road checkpoints, going from village to house to search for clues, and even rarely showed a strong side, directly taking away the dispatching rights of the three-class yamen and archers in Guyang County.
Came over.
As the head of the Fangtang Hall, if Wujiyuan is really going to get slapped, then the first slap will be given to Song Zhiyuan of the Supervisory Court. The second slap will definitely fall on Zhao Ran. For more than ten days in a row, Zhao Ran has been working hard to solve the case.
It was hard work. It was not because he was afraid of being beaten, but because he felt a faint sense of guilt in his heart.
If he hadn't advocated the reform of youth money, if it hadn't been for participating in the "on-site office meeting" he proposed, Zhang Jianyuan would not have come to Wujiyuan at this time, and perhaps he would not have been assassinated in Songfengling. Whenever I think of that only
He had met the old Taoist priest twice, and whenever he thought of the old Taoist priest's encouragement and hope for him, he couldn't help but feel guilty.
In addition to guilt, Zhao Ran also had lingering doubts. He intuitively believed that this matter was related to Zhang Supervisor's strong implementation of the youth money reform. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? He happened to be arrested just as he was preparing to promote the reform.
Assassinated in the Middle Way? Moreover, even though Zhang Jianyuan is a high-ranking official, in the final analysis, he is just a Jianyuan of Shifang Jungle. He is an extremely "vulgar" old man. What grudges does he have with the Buddhist monk?
Attracting an assassin from the spiritual world and taking extraordinary risks to stab him to death?
Zhao Ran fixed his sights firmly on the monk's "bald head". This is an extremely obvious feature and the only feasible search clue so far. To this end, Zhao Ran personally led the team and searched intensively starting from the county seat.
Let no hairless bald man go. After checking the county seat, go to all the villages. After checking the ordinary people, check the wealthy gentry.
In order to avoid getting into trouble, the gentry in Guyang County opened their doors without any conditions and actively cooperated with Zhao Ran in searching for clues. Often, as soon as Zhao Ran started to investigate one household, the next household would already send a housekeeper, or even the head of the household himself.
Arrive at the scene and respectfully invite Zhao Ran to search.
Zhao Ran searched the entire county for ten days, but he captured dozens of bald heads, but without exception they were all "good people". Ninety percent of the reason why they were bald was because they didn't have long hair, and there wasn't even a single monk among them, let alone their bodies.
Buddhism has magical power.
After wandering around in the dark for ten days, Zhao Ran found nothing and had to return to Wujiyuan. As soon as he returned to the mountain gate, Zhao Ran was invited over by Song Zhiyuan.
Song Zhiyuan was obviously not having a good time these days, and half of his bun was already white. Song Supervisor had no time to cook tea, and Zhao Ran had no energy to appease his boss. The two sat facing each other for a long time, and the atmosphere was very tense.
It's boring.
The news sent to Zhao Ran by the Song Supervisor came from Xizhenwu Palace. Because Zhang Supervisor died unexpectedly, Xizhenwu Palace quickly replaced a supervisor. Due to special circumstances, this supervisor was not recommended by the Sandu Council.
Rather, he was appointed by Xuanyuan Guan.
"The new prisoner's surname is Xu. He just turned fifty this year, and his name is Xu Tenglong."
Zhao Ran pinched his temples and said feebly: "Zhang Jianyuan has passed away. The Xizhenwu Palace cannot be left without an owner for a day. It is inevitable that a new supervisor will take office. I just don't know what kind of person this Xu Jianyuan is. Is it possible?
Inherit the legacy of Zhang Jianyuan and continue to support the reform of Qingmiao Qian. However, since Xuanyuan Guan appointed the Qingmiao Qian issue, I am afraid there is still hope for the Qingmiao Qian issue to continue. After all, Xuanyuan Guan’s Li Jianyuan has a close relationship with Zhang Jianyuan.
They support Zhang Jianyuan..."
The Song Supervisor did not answer Zhao Ran's words and continued to introduce the resume of this prisoner: "Xu Tenglong was born in Huangzhou, Huguang, and entered Huanggang County Ende Yuan at the age of seventeen..."
Zhao Ran was stunned: "Huguang?"
"...I received an ultimatum at the age of twenty, became a chaotou at the age of twenty-seven, became the head of the guest hall at the age of thirty, was promoted to Dianzao three years later, and was promoted to patrol officer three years later. At the age of forty, he entered the martial arts sage of Huangzhou Prefecture.
The palace was used to welcome guests. At the age of forty-two, he was transferred to the patrol patrol. At the age of forty-five, he was transferred to the Qingyuan Palace in Wuchang and was in charge of the general administration. At the age of forty-eight, he entered Huguang Changchun Temple and became a known guest."
As Zhao Ran listened, he heard the doorway coming: "This person has never served as a prisoner?"
Song Supervisor nodded, and Zhao Ran was immediately surprised.
Judging from Xu Tenglong's resume, this person's transition has two characteristics.
One is that promotions are very fast. Basically, you can be promoted to a higher level in two to three years. Even if you are transferred at the same level, you are basically going to important positions. This kind of person has a very strong relationship, and there are always people above him who will spare no effort to promote him.
But his starting point is very low, almost the same as Zhao Ran who sneaked into the Taoist temple, which shows that his family background is not strong. The reason why he has such a strong relationship, if nothing else, he should be a person who is very good at managing things, which is ugly to say.
Point, that is, very good at catering.
The second characteristic is that this person went from the Taoist Academy to the Taoist Palace, and then from the Taoist Palace to the Taoist Temple. He has never had the experience of presiding over a party. Such people usually do not have any strong abilities, that is, they have insufficient talents and equipment, and they are not even promoted.
His people don't have much confidence in his ability, so they dare not entrust him with full power.
What Zhao Ran was curious about was, how could such a person come to Sichuan inexplicably? And when he came, he was the supervisor of the Taoist Palace?
Song Zhiyuan sighed and explained: "The appointment was issued by Xuanyuan Guan, but I heard that this person was recommended by the Lushan General Guan."
The general view of Mount Lu again? Hey, why do you say 'again'? Zhao Ran suddenly remembered that the obscure abbot of Xizhenwu Palace also came from Huguang. At that moment, he couldn't help but ask: "Abbot Du..."
Song Zhiyuan nodded heavily and said: "Abbot Du received the ultimatum at Wusheng Palace in Huangzhou when he was young. He has been serving as the supervisor of Wusheng Palace. Five years ago, he entered Qingyuan Palace in Wuchang as abbot..."
Zhao Ran asked: "I heard that when Abbot Du came to Sichuan last year, he was appointed directly by the General Manager of Lushan Mountain?"
"good!"
At this moment, Zhao Ran finally felt the seriousness of the situation. (It’s a great pie-in-the-sky event, cool mobile phones are waiting for you! Follow ~ click / official account (add friends on WeChat-add official account-enter dd)
