Chapter 101: The Five Heavenly Imperial Sects, the Five Realms of Great Chu!
The blessed land of heaven has a vast territory.
Five sects stand side by side, and the land under the jurisdiction of each sect is extremely vast.
Under the jurisdiction of the five sects are the five realms of the Chu Dynasty.
Many years ago, because the territory of the five major realms was too vast, there were so many living beings in the mortal world, there were too many mundane affairs, and the order was chaotic. However, these five major immortal sects were, after all, sects that stood high in the world and had no time to manage the troubled world... Therefore, it was
With the predecessor of the Chu Dynasty.
At that time, the five major immortal sects jointly recommended the outer sect, which was composed of members of each sect and was in charge of the earthly world of heaven and blessed land, and governed hundreds of millions of sentient beings.
From then on, household registers were created, rosters were drawn up, the population was coordinated, and the most outstanding practitioners in the world were collected.
Furthermore, he also used this to collect all kinds of heavenly materials, earthly treasures and various rare objects for the five major sects within the territory of Tianyu Blessed Land, name them and create a list, and pay tribute to the five major sects, becoming the source of the five sects' cultivation expenses.
However, it is rumored that hundreds of years ago, there were actually six major sects that jointly recommended a lineage to coordinate the Tianyu Blessed Land.
But four hundred years ago, for unknown reasons, the blessed land of Tianyu was in great turmoil. War broke out among ordinary people, people were displaced, and the peaceful times turned into chaos.
After consultation with the remaining five sects, the outer sect jointly recommended by these five sects was allowed to establish a country, named Dachu!
The Chu Dynasty quelled the war and regained peace to this day!
Zhuang Ming vaguely heard from Brother Ninth that Da Chu was able to take advantage of the situation to establish a country, and the truth behind it was complicated.
But the root cause is actually related to the second sword attack on Dongzhou by his mentor Bai Shengjun.
——
"Without wealth, it is not enough to cultivate Taoism. I am attached to the Dongsheng Dynasty. I use the peace, order and rules of the Dongsheng Dynasty to establish Zhuang's Trading Company, collect silver, recruit people, and collect all kinds of rare things, treasures, and medicines to support me."
Dragon."
"But the five Immortal Sects jointly promoted a lineage to form the Great Chu Dynasty, which took charge of the Heavenly Royal Blessed Land, recruited outstanding seedlings, and collected all kinds of treasures."
"Actually, it is somewhat similar to what I thought back then, but in comparison, I am only attached to the dynasty, while the five Immortal Sects are above the dynasty."
"The Dongyuan Realm of the Great Chu Dynasty is one of the five sects and is under the jurisdiction of the Taiyuan Sect. I wonder if the old Taoist has returned?"
Zhuang Ming thought this way and glanced at the crowd outside the carriage.
This place is prosperous and very different from the Dongsheng Dynasty. Its clothing, speech accent, and etiquette customs are all different.
He glanced over it, then looked away again, but did not speak.
Yue Ting had just briefly mentioned the whole story. At this moment, everyone was thinking.
"Fu Lao was attacked, do you suspect there is a mole?" Lu He said solemnly, looking solemn.
"There must be a ghost inside. Otherwise, the whereabouts will not be revealed." Yue Ting said in a deep voice.
"The mole you are referring to is..."
Lu He was silent for a moment.
There was silence in the carriage for a moment.
Everyone's eyes were turned to the young master.
However, Zhuang Ming didn't seem to notice, and his expression remained the same as before.
"Zheng Yuanshan or Yuan Tao? Or... both?"
"It's not them, it's the stewards from my side, Jiang, and Yong, because..." Yue Ting paused and said in a low voice: "The two of them don't know the route of Fu Lao's trip at all."
"What do you mean?" Bai Qing's expression changed slightly.
"The two people's determination to be self-reliant was so obvious at the beginning of this year that even Fu Lao couldn't control it," Yue Ting said seriously.
"this……"
Lu He looked a little heavy, while Bai Qing and Liu He also looked complicated.
When the young master arrived, Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao did not come to greet him. They thought that overseas trading companies were busy with matters and they had no time to come.
Now it seems...that they have become self-reliant?
"I asked the young master for help, but I didn't inform them."
Yue Ting said slowly: "They didn't know that the young master was here beforehand... However, this time I went to Yingdong Port in person to greet the young master and did not cover up my whereabouts. The two of them must have received the news, but they are still the same at this moment.
I don’t know.”
Zhuang Ming said calmly: "It doesn't matter."
When everyone heard the words, they were all enlightened.
The power of a dragon is as high as an immortal god.
The plot of the young master is also profound and unpredictable.
Things in just three places are nothing to worry about.
As for these two former companions, if they really insist on going their own way, they can only erect monuments and incense for them out of their old friendship.
"I hope... I can change my mind."
Lu He sighed like this.
Those who were sent overseas by the young master back then could also be called confidants, such as Fu Lao and Yue Ting.
Back then, Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao were actually close friends.
Especially Yuan Tao, as a warrior, is also very close to Lu He and others.
If former friends could change their minds, everyone would be happy.
If you are obsessed with profit, have a deep sense of rebellion, and are determined to rebel, then there is no other option but to erect a monument and burn incense.
Shuang Ling pursed her lips and whispered: "The Heavenly Blessed Land, the Great Chu Dynasty... can they sway people's hearts so easily?"
Yue Ting raised his hand and said seriously: "People's hearts are changeable, just because their minds are unstable. I, Yue Ting, have seen this vast world, but I have never had two minds."
Bai Qing laughed, patted his head and said, "Good brother, I won't bully you anymore."
——
"Sir, Yue Ting and others have returned. This is the news."
"We met with five people? Four men and one woman?" The old man stood with his hands behind his hands and frowned slightly.
"Yes, but..."
"But how?"
"The person Yue Ting respects the most is the youngest among them, the young man in white."
"What?" The old man became more and more stunned and said, "Young man?"
"Younger than Yue Ting." The man responded.
"It's strange that someone as unruly as Yue Ting would be so respectful to a young man?"
The old man pondered: "Could it be that they are trying to spread suspicion? Find out what kind of goods they are transporting? Is there someone else coming secretly? Maybe the person secretly is the one who makes the real decision..."
"Yes, sir."
——
"Four men and one woman, led by a young man in white?"
"Three other men followed him like guards, and one of them had a broken arm."
The man in black knelt on one knee and responded: "As for that girl, she is quite beautiful, but she is very young. Judging from the careful observation of the eyeliners present, she should be the maid of the young man in white."
The middle-aged man asked: "How are your skills?"
The man in black responded: "One person is deep and reserved, with steady steps and energy and blood like an oven. He has become a master. The remaining two are at the second level of martial arts, but they are not like masters... As for the girl, there is no martial arts."
"What about the young man in white?"
"Every move he makes has an extraordinary temperament. However, there are no traces of martial arts practice. He just looks like a young man from a wealthy family."
"One grandmaster guard, two second-level martial arts, not yet a grandmaster." The middle-aged man muttered: "It seems that the Zhuang Company's foundation in their homeland is not that deep..."
"Perhaps in their homeland, third-level martial arts masters are too rare." The man in black said.
"That's true. After all, the Chu Dynasty is the most prosperous in the vast sea."
The middle-aged man said: "Continue to explore and see what the news is."
——
"What do you think, adults?"
"To be able to be respected by Yue Ting shows that this young man has an extraordinary status. He should be the top decision-maker in Zhuang's business in the country."
The sixty-year-old man stroked his beard and said in deep thought: "It's just that I'm too young..."
The news said that the young man in white looked to be in his twenties.
A few years ago, wasn't it more youthful?
Will Fu Laogui, Zheng Yuanshan, Yuan Tao, Yue Ting and others be assigned by such a young boy to develop a business overseas?
The old man whispered: "Isn't it the owner of Zhuang's Trading Company who is here?"
The gentleman hesitated and said, "Could it be one of the descendants of the owner of his Zhuang Company?"
The sixty-year-old old man shook his head and said: "Yue Ting is unruly. If this person is not capable, even if he is the only son of the local owner of Zhuang's Trading Company, it is impossible for him to be in awe. Even if the person who comes here is not the real owner of Zhuang's Trading Company, he must be in charge of great power."
, and was able to convince the public and make Yue Ting awe-inspiring figures..."
After a pause, the sixty-year-old old man smiled and said: "Anyway, since the local decision-maker of Zhuang's Trading Company is here, we should find out his details. Over the years, Old Ghost Fu has given me many treasures...
…Then Fu Laogui dies. If he succeeds Fu Laogui and really stabilizes the situation, it might be his turn to deal with me."
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Have a banquet."
"Yes, I will take care of it here."
"etc……"
The old man in his sixties pondered for a moment and said: "Hold a big banquet and invite all parties."
The man was suddenly shocked.
The old man in his 60s said: "Invitations are widely distributed in Jiangdi, but Zhuang's Trading Company... sent two."
The gentleman asked in surprise: "Why is this?"
The old man in his 60s chuckled and said, "One letter is for the new chief, and the other is for Zheng Yuanshan."
The etiquette and customs of the Chu Dynasty were such that no two members of the same family had more than one family member.
"Don't Zheng Yuanshan want to be independent?"
"I give him a push!"
"Invite him to Jiangdi to attend my banquet."
"Let's see if he dares to come!"
——
Dongyuan realm, seventh mansion, Hedi.
The branch of Zhuang's Trading Company is located.
"Four men and one woman. According to the news, two of them should be Lu He and Liu He, and the other one looks like Bai Qing, but this person has a broken arm..."
"It's an accident to lick blood from the edge of the knife and break an arm." Zheng Yuanshan said slowly: "In the Dongsheng Dynasty, in the final analysis, the young master is just a businessman. When competing for business with others, involving interests and money, it is inevitable to use open swords and covert attacks. Are you still unfamiliar?
What’s more, if the tree is big and attracts the wind, and Zhuang’s business is too prosperous, maybe officials from the Dongsheng Dynasty and even the royal family... will take a look."
"That's true. When I was in the Dongsheng Dynasty, I worked for the young master, escorting goods, protecting men, and even secretly assassinating people. I also got a lot of blood. It was not unusual for me to be injured or even killed.
." Yuan Tao said.
"Bai Qing, who has lost his arm, is okay, but those two people didn't come." Zheng Yuanshan said.
"You mean Qian Yang and Yin Ming?"
"That's right." Zheng Yuanshan said: "The two great masters are inseparable from the young master, but they never came this time... Moreover, the news said that it was a young man in white, but it did not say that he had disabled legs and was sitting in a wheelchair."
"Isn't it the young master who is here?" Yuan Tao asked in astonishment.
"Impossible, you and I have both been under the Young Master. How could you and I not recognize the capable young men under his command? What's more, the news said that Yue Ting was very respectful to the young man and thought that he was unruly and unruly.
Even if Lu He is not convinced, only the young master can show respect to him."
Zheng Yuanshan said: "Lu He and others are acting as guards, and the girl looks like the little Shuangling back then, so she must be the young master... Maybe he needs to meet a famous doctor and his legs can be restored."
Yuan Tao asked: "What do you mean?"
Zheng Yuanshan closed his eyes slightly and spoke after a long while, "I originally thought about waiting to see how the young master would deal with the situation in the three places. However, after thinking about it for half an hour, I realized something was wrong..."
"What's wrong?"
"With Young Master's skills, it may not be possible to stabilize the situation in Fang, Jiang, and Yong. If we want to watch a show, we may just wait to die."
"What do you think?" Yuan Tao hesitated.
"Young master has just arrived here, he is not yet familiar with everything, and he is not yet clear about the situation..."
Zheng Yuanshan said in a deep voice: "Before he can overwhelm the situation in the three places, you and I should take a preemptive strike, disrupt his arrangements, catch him off guard, and besieged by various forces in the three places, putting him in danger! Otherwise, once he recovers,
Come, use his plan, plus Lu He and others..."
He looked at Yuan Tao with a solemn expression.
Yuan Tao whispered: "Yue Ting is the master, and his military power is even higher than mine."
Zheng Yuanshan said in a low voice: "Fu Laogui's trading firm in the three places has a good foundation. If the young master successfully takes over and controls the three places, until he is free... I am not sure I can beat him."
Yuan Tao heard the words and knew what they meant, but hesitated a little.
Zheng Yuanshan said slowly: "Either bear the thorn and plead guilty, or resolve to stand on one's own feet... If it's the former, the fruits of your hard work over the past few years will all be handed over to him, Zhuang Ming. If it's the latter, you and I can no longer care about our old relationship."
Yuan Tao's tone was slightly astringent and he said: "Is that so?"
Zheng Yuanshan's eyes were focused and he said: "Strike first!"
