"Master, don't you want me to be the leader of Maoshan and take over from you?"
When Lin Tianqi heard this, he immediately smiled and said half-jokingly.
"What do you think? Currently, you are the most outstanding among the disciples of your generation. You are also the senior brother, and everyone admires you."
Uncle Jiu heard this and said tentatively with a smile.
"No, Master, it's not like you don't know my character. I can't handle being the leader."
Lin Tianqi immediately waved his hands.
Nonsense, he didn't even bother to take care of Xinjiapo and Wumen and was just a hands-off shopkeeper. How could he accept Maoshan's stall, and it was still a thankless stall.
"Haha, senior brother, I have told you a long time ago that with Tianqi's temperament, if you are willing to be the leader, you will definitely reject it."
Seeing Lin Tianqi's refusal, Simu immediately laughed and said, it seemed that he had made a bet with Uncle Jiu or something.
Uncle Jiu was not surprised. He had expected Lin Tianqi's refusal. He knew from Lin Tianqi's performance and personality over the years that Lin Tianqi was the kind of person who preferred freedom and ease and did not like too many constraints and cumbersome people. Moreover, Lin Tianqi was single-minded.
Da Dao, even in a high position like the head of a country, he is just a hands-off shopkeeper. He is not very willing to take care of it, let alone just a Maoshan.
"Then, who do you think is suitable for taking the position of head among all of you brothers?"
Uncle Jiu looked at Lin Tianqi again and asked Lin Tianqi for his opinion.
Lin Tianqi couldn't help but ponder after hearing this. Eight years later, the original disciples of Maoshan and his generation have almost grown up, and they are all pretty good, and their Taoist cultivation has basically reached the level of Purple Qi Yunhun Jue.
On the seventh floor, although there were no monks in the soul-condensing realm, the overall strength performance was still acceptable, and Maoshan's reputation was not dishonored.
"I think Dongsheng, Dongsheng is more suitable. Dongsheng has a calm temperament and good strength. He has reached the peak of soul cultivation and has a strong foundation. It is not impossible to set foot in the soul condensation realm in the future."
After thinking for a moment, Lin Tianqi said.
"Well, then I will discuss this matter with your senior uncles later before making a decision. If you are unwilling, Dongsheng is indeed a good choice."
Uncle Jiu nodded slightly when he heard the words. In fact, he had already thought of Xu Dongsheng in his mind. Among Lin Tianqi's generation of Maoshan disciples, besides Lin Tianqi, Xu Dongsheng is the most outstanding. He is calm and responsible, and he is willing to endure hardships and practice hard.
He is not weak at all, and has reached the peak of soul cultivation. He is the one with the highest cultivation level among the Maoshan disciples of Lin Tianqi's generation, except Lin Tianqi.
As Lin Tianqi said, although Xu Dongsheng is not very talented, if he is willing to work hard, it is not impossible to reach the realm of soul condensation in the future.
As for the decision to choose Xu Dongsheng, Uncle Jiu had obviously discussed it with Simu a long time ago, so Simu did not object to the whole process.
After briefly discussing the matter, Lin Tianqi stayed in the Taoist temple for more than an hour before getting up and leaving.
After leaving the Taoist temple, I sensed the location of Bai Ji and others, and walked in the direction. The entire street was still a sea of joy, immersed in the victory of the anti-Japanese war, just like the Chinese New Year. Lin Tianqi arrived on the street
After that, he put on a mask and sunglasses to cover himself tightly, because his appearance was too easy for others to recognize.
Since he stood up and delivered several speeches on behalf of the Singaporean government during the war in the past few years, Lin Tianqi's popularity has soared to an astonishing level in Singapore, especially among some young girls, who have countless collections of his photos.
Pressed under the pillow, Lin Tianqi deeply realized what a headache it is for someone who is too good, too famous, especially too handsome.
Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of Singapore, the Internet, photography and other aspects have begun to become popular, resulting in the rapid development of media, which has become even more of a headache.
This is one of the reasons why Lin Tianqi doesn't like going out on the street very much. It's really annoying. He has to cover up when he goes out on the street, but if he doesn't cover up, it will be even more of a headache to be recognized.
Soon, I found Bai Ji and other girls in a large shopping mall. Each of the girls also wore masks. They walked around together for a while before returning to Xinyue Island Villa.
However, that night, Lin Tianqi received a message from his master. Three days later, a succession ceremony for the leader would be held. The position of leader would be held by his junior brother Xu Dongsheng.
Three days later, the succession ceremony was held at Maoshan Temple, and Lin Tianqi also rushed over to attend the ceremony.
After the entire succession ceremony was completed and he watched his junior brother become the new head of Maoshan, the rest of his life fell into peace again.
At this time, Simu, Qianhe and others proposed the idea of returning to their country and wanted to go back to live. Uncle Jiu was also somewhat interested.
The Chinese people pay attention to returning to their roots after fallen leaves, and value returning to their hometown. Especially as they get older, this kind of thoughts and emotions will become stronger. Especially now that the domestic Anti-Japanese War has been victorious, the group immediately had thoughts in this regard, especially thinking about
Will visit Maoshan.
But in the end, this proposal was persuaded by Lin Tianqi.
Others don't know the next historical situation in the country, but how could Lin Tianqi not know?
Unless you wait until the reform and opening up in the 1980s and 1990s, it is definitely not suitable to go back.
Besides, the conditions here in Singapore are so good now. Wouldn't it be nice to stay in Singapore and enjoy the happiness? Why do we have to go back?
Under Lin Tianqi's persuasion, Uncle Jiu, Simu and others finally gave up the idea of returning to China, but they still prepared to go back to visit China, especially to go back to Maoshan to pay homage to Yunyang. Four years ago, Yunyang
He has passed away, news came from Maoshan.
Lin Tianqi did not persuade him on this point. If he just went back to worship and have a look, it would not be a big problem at all. With the good relations between Singapore and China, even if there is a civil war in the future, no matter which side the two governments are in
It is absolutely impossible to embarrass them, and this is indeed the case.
At the end of the year, Lin Tianqi personally accompanied his master and all his uncles back to China, visited his hometown in person, and finally spent a week in Maoshan to worship Yunyang.
I stayed in China for almost a month and then returned to Singapore again.
In the following years, the familiar old people around Lin Tianqi also died one after another.
In March 1946, shortly after the Spring Festival, Wu Sanjiang passed away. Lin Tianqi accompanied Wu Qingqing to attend the entire funeral of Wu Sanjiang.
In the second half of the same year, Xu's father and Xu's mother died together on the same night, and the two elders were arranged to be buried together.
In 1947, Li Quanqing also passed away, and Lin Tianqi accompanied Li Min to handle Li Quanqing's future.
In the same year, Wu San, Li Musheng, Zhao Changfeng and many other senior members of the Wu sect who were familiar or unfamiliar to Lin Tianqi also passed away one after another.
The years are ruthless, and seeing the familiar old people around him passing away, Lin Tianqi's heart gradually becomes heavy.
At the same time, the international situation also entered the Cold War stage.
But for Singapore, it is actually good news, because after the end of the world war, the United States originally regarded Singapore, which also possesses nuclear weapons, as the primary threat country, but now, the United States is directly targeting the Soviet Union.
However, Lin Tianqi didn't pay much attention to these international situations.
In 1948, at the Singapore Government Parliament, Lin Tianqi held a national and even global press conference to formally relinquish the position of president, and Wu Siguo became the new president of Singapore. The original position of prime minister was held by someone else.
replace.
On the day when Lin Tianqi announced his resignation, the entire Singapore residents spontaneously held a grand parade to see him off to express their love for Lin Tianqi.
Although Lin Tianqi was almost a hands-off shopkeeper during his tenure, his prestige in the entire Singapore is unquestionable. Lin Tianqi definitely played a decisive role and contribution in Singapore being able to achieve today's grand situation.
After stepping down as president, Lin Tianqi also completely disappeared behind the scenes.
In a flash, many years have passed.
Time enters the fifties.
In September 1956, late at night, in the Taoist temple in Maoshan, there was a real statue of a god that was added last year.
"Master, I'm here to see you."
There was no one in the silent Taoist temple. A young figure appeared in the Taoist temple at some point. He raised his head and looked at the statue and suddenly spoke.
Immediately afterwards, the statue suddenly opened its eyes, shot out two divine lights, looked at the young man, and suddenly spoke.
"Tianqi."
