Thanks to brother yangzhigang for the Laba porridge, and brother Jidian Fu for the wintersweet. I like it very much! Of course, I also want to thank the Huangshan Double Swordsmen for the reward, and all fellow Taoists for the Sanjiang tickets. I am very polite!
According to Tong Lao's wishes, the Song Supervisory Academy summoned Sandu and the six deacons in the courtyard together, and the senior officials of Wuji Academy gathered at Tianshi Hall again. The concierge Yu Zhiyuan went to Baima Mountain according to the order, and he did not know when
Dong Zhikun, who was in the room, said he was ill in the past few days and had not shown up at Wuji Mountain. There was news that he was busy moving around and wanted to be transferred out of Wuji Yard.
In front of the senior officials of the academy, Zhao Ran honestly confessed his mistakes in public, saying that he should not have acted in the name of the Great Master of Chu in the Jade Emperor Pavilion. He not only caused a lot of troubles in the Wuji Academy, but also dealt with
The damage caused to Master Chu's reputation is irreparable. His apology was very sincere, heartfelt and touching - this has always been Zhao Ran's specialty. He said that in order to make up for his crime,
In order to avoid past mistakes and save others, he decided to leave Wujiyuan for a period of time and voluntarily accompanied Tong Lao to serve in front of the White Horse Mountain Army, proving his determination to change his past mistakes with practical actions.
This incident shocked the senior officials of Wujiyuan. While everyone was stunned, Mr. Tong also apologized to everyone on behalf of his master. He relayed the meaning of Master Chu, saying that Master Chu confessed that he acted inappropriately.
Zhou, therefore, was not aware of what Zhao Ran had done, which led to today's mistake, which broke the Taoist disciples' and Sun Temple's rules of not interfering in the secular affairs of Shifang Jungle. Now that they know it, they must explain it in public, and severely punish the person involved.
This is how he served before he was sent to the army.
Immediately, Mr. Tong announced that he would take Zhao Ran down the mountain today to show that Master would never tolerate this matter.
After the brief discussion, Mr. Tong had something to do and wanted to go down the mountain. He made an appointment with Zhao Ran to meet at the foot of Wuji Mountain after dark. Zhao Ran went back to pack his bags dejectedly.
After Tong Lao and Zhao Ran left hand in hand, the Song Supervisor, Sandu and the six deacons were still sitting in the Tianshi Hall. Everyone seemed to have not recovered from this shocking news.
After a long time, the newly appointed Dianzao Chen Zhizhong murmured: "This... turns out to be all fake..."
Jia Zhisun, the deacon of the Fangtang Hall, still couldn't believe it and was speechless: "We can actually be deceived? Is Junior Brother Zhao really a liar? No way? It shouldn't be..."
The new high-ranking official Liu Zhiguang glanced at Chen Zhizhong and Jia Zhixun, and sneered: "Liar? Go and try to deceive one of them? See if you can get Zhang Supervisor of Xizhenwu Palace, Bai Du, Jing Du, and Liao Du
The chef was completely deceived!"
Yuan Duchu agreed: "Yes, Zhao Ran offended Abbot Du so harshly that day. If it is false, Abbot Du will know when he goes back and asks why you still transfer correctly? There must be something fishy in this."
Both Chen Zhizhong and Jia Zhisun were confused and didn't know what to say. The other confused person was the new patrol officer Zhang Zhihuan. He couldn't help but nodded and said: "That's right..." After a while, he shook his head and said: "Since
It’s not a lie, why did the Great Refiner send Tonglao here again? He also sent Zhao Ranfa to Baima Mountain? I can’t figure it out..."
Liu Zhiguang continued to sneer: "It's just a way to clear things up... As for going to Baima Mountain, is it necessarily a punishment? Who can tell whether it is a good thing or a bad thing? The key is whether there is someone to take care of you later! Junior Brother Yu went to Baima Mountain
, he was promoted to Zhike when he came back. Isn’t this another rush to go back? I think it’s probably not a bad thing for Junior Brother Zhao. If you don’t believe it, just wait and see, maybe he can get some credit, even if he is a fool
It doesn’t take much credit, but at least it’s a qualification, right?”
This was said so clearly that all the Taoist priests in the Tianshi Hall were suddenly stunned.
Seeing that everyone was talking more and more unscrupulously, the Song Supervisor had to come out and stop them: "Don't make random guesses about these things, let alone talk about them casually. It's all rotten to my stomach. No one is allowed to mention it again in the future! Do you understand?"
Then everyone was stunned again.
Not to mention how the senior officials of Wujiyuan were talking about it, Zhao Ran returned to the new house where he had just moved not long ago in frustration and started to pack his bags. In fact, he had nothing to pack. Since entering Wujiyuan the year before last, he had been thinking about it.
How to climb up the ladder, there is no time to buy permanent property.
Zhao Ran stayed in the private house for a few months, then moved to the vegetable room for a few more months, then moved to the courtyard where the Taoist monks lived, and now lives in the wing vacated by Chen Zhizhong, the master of the former Sutra Hall.
The continuous relocations left him with no energy or time to buy anything good. After he was promoted to the master of tranquility, he originally planned to take time to wander outside the mountains and buy a village. However, before the idea was put into practice, he
He was sent to Baima Mountain again. So until now, he is surrounded by miscellaneous things.
That precious string has always been hidden in his belt and has never left Zhao Ran, and this trip was certainly no exception. The full set of Five Elements Divine Formation disks given to him by the Huayun Pavilion Award naturally had to be hidden close to his body.
It's very delicate and not big. Zhao Ran had previously ordered a specially made cloth bag from a sewing shop at the foot of the mountain, and just hung it directly on his chest with a silk rope. As for the banknotes, Zhao Ran had about a dozen in his house.
The total amount is seven or eight hundred taels, and now they are stuffed into the sleeve pocket of the Taoist robe. With these things in hand, Zhao Ran can actually travel lightly. Of course, there are also his ultimatum and the official documents of Director Jing. With these things
Things can only travel a long way, otherwise it will be difficult to move even an inch.
In addition, he casually packed a package, threw two changes of clothes in, poured the remaining about five or sixty taels of gold and silver into a wheel, and then put the package on the bag he usually carried when going down the mountain for fasting.
The upper layer of the small bamboo box. The lower layer of the bamboo box has been storing silk ribbons, green ropes, magic lamps, bronze mirrors, copper bells, talisman papers and other items. In the middle is tied the used two-foot peach wood sword. These things Zhao Ran
I didn't plan to carry it, but after thinking about it, I didn't remove it. I just added two more bamboo tubes, one for water and one for salt.
After cleaning up, Zhao Ran sat blankly on the bedside for a long time, got up and walked around the three rooms, and then sat down again in a daze.
When it was dark at noon, the news that he was going to Baima Mountain spread in Wuji Courtyard. There was an endless stream of visitors, all coming to see him off.
Supervisor Song Zhiyuan, Gao Gong Liu Zhiguang, Inspector Zhang Zhihuan, and Dian Chen Zhizhong, who had benefited from him, all came to visit Zhao Ran one by one, mostly to encourage and comfort him; Sandu and some other deacons and stewards also mostly asked Zhao Ran.
Someone came over and gave me some parting words.
Then came several Taoist priests who got along well with Zhao Ran, such as Mo Zhixing, Fang Zhihe, etc. Even Ma Zhili, who had never talked to him very much, came to visit. They came hand in hand and brought a table of food and wine.
, saying it was for Zhao Ran. Several people shouted for wine and raised their glasses repeatedly. Zhao Ran’s drinking ability was trained by later generations, and they could not drink it. After a few rounds, his face was only slightly red, and almost everyone else was drunk.
He lay down and was helped back one by one by Guan Er and his gang who had been waiting at the door.
After sending those drunkards back, Guan Er, Fatty Jia, Jiao Tan, Zhou Huai and others wandered back again. This time they saw real money. Zhao Ran was not polite and took all the hundreds of taels of silver notes.
He smiled and accepted it. Considering that going to Baima this time was relatively dangerous, Zhao Ran had to be prepared, even if it was to prepare for his funeral.
He stored a lot of money in Guan Er's Escort Bureau, and after spending it all, he still had more than 5,000 taels. He told Guan Er that if he did not come back from Baima, he would leave half of it to Uncle Zhao and Zhao Zhuang.
Aunt Zhao, and entrusted several people to take care of her. Although these few are low-level fire masters in Wujiyuan, they are not fuel-efficient lamps when they go down the mountain. Any one picked out has weight, and they can take care of Zhao.
It was easy for Uncle and Aunt Zhao, so they both agreed happily.
Zhao Ran spoke again, saying that the remaining half of the brothers should be divided among them. It was also a time for everyone to get acquainted and think about it. These words made several people's eyes red, but they just tried to persuade Zhao Ran and said he was lucky.
People have their own destiny, Taoist Sanqing must bless him. This time he went to Baima Mountain, he will definitely make a great contribution. When the time comes, the brothers will serve him wine and celebrate his success.
Also going to Baima Mountain, Zhao Ran definitely made a lot more noise than Yu Zhiyuan. Yu Zhiyuan left quietly every time, but he had constant visitors, and it became a bit overwhelming in the end. Fortunately, everything
No one mentioned his behavior of pulling tiger skins to make coats, which made him secretly relieved. This also showed that he was popular in Wujiyuan for more than two years. Zhao Ran was finally comforted by this.
