Chapter 652 Xia Chichi Is the Leader
The Four Symbols followers were ashamed of their previous low-level thinking.
They thought that the gods had forced the Venerable to serve them... Looking at the image of the Vermillion Bird spreading its wings, the might and power that could be felt from a long distance, the Venerable Vermillion Bird must have made great progress in his practice, so it triggered the resonance of the stars.
This is not a service at all. Even the double cultivation that Maitreya once boasted about would not dare to boast that it could help people achieve such an improvement. This is not that kind of thing. It can only be the blessing of the gods that allowed the always loyal and selfless Venerable Vermillion Bird to achieve a leap in practice.
This is a miracle among miracles, and it may also be a great loss to the gods. How could they imagine such a terrible picture?
The followers bowed their heads and prayed, deeply repenting their disrespectful suspicion of the gods and the Venerable.
They should be more faithful to their beliefs and strive to get such blessings in the future and break through the threshold that they have been stuck for so many years.
The new leader and the Xuanwu venerable stared at each other expressionlessly for a while, and Xia Chichi finally said: "The new doctrines and regulations have been preached. You should go back and study and act according to the new rules. From now on, we are the real state religion and need to set an example, especially in terms of killing and slaughtering. We must not do the old things and be regarded as demons. The rest of the rules will be slowly adapted."
The believers bowed their heads: "Respect the master's order."
The "demon" of the Four Symbols Sect is not formed by its own vicious character. The believers are not bloodthirsty and evil. In this regard, they may not be as violent as the Blood God Sect. It's just that because of the original doctrine, it seems to act more demonically. The meaning of "this world originally belongs to our Night Emperor, the Human Emperor must be our Azure Dragon, and everyone else is fake, and they can all be shot down" is very obvious, so it is called a demon.
But times have changed. Now there is a real god sitting below to bless the Vermillion Bird, and in the environment where the emperor is really his own Azure Dragon, the Four Symbols Sect has no soil for the existence of the demonic attributes. This is their ideal kingdom of God. Now the evil ones are the rebels who are separatist in various places. Damn, how dare you disobey my Qinglong Saint Emperor?
Xia Chichi said: "The biggest advantage of the Holy Church lies in the civilian power. It just so happens that the court has an important matter now and needs the response of the people."
"Please give your orders, leader."
"Previously, the court selected scholars from the aristocratic families. Not only did they control the court, but their disciples and former officials were like spider webs that spread all over the place. There are countless people like Zhai Muzhi. I intend to reform... The previous emperor once promoted the military examination to enrich the military and the Demon Suppression Department, which was considered an independent force outside the aristocratic families. But this is not enough. The previous emperor never had the concept of governing the country in his eyes. The governance of the government is still controlled by the aristocratic families. We need to expand from the military examination to the civil examination... Others may encounter great resistance if they want to do such a thing, but we are the Four Symbols Church!"
We are the Four Symbols Church.
When it comes to the power of the people, the background of religion is very suitable for doing this, which is enough to hedge against the deep-rooted aristocratic local forces.
On the other hand, in terms of literacy rate and cultural level, folk religious figures are much stronger than pure martial arts sects because they are intentionally cultivated. Although it is far inferior to the level of aristocratic families, it is still possible to support a large-scale imperial examination and official selection.
It doesn't matter if the aristocratic families resist. As long as there is large-scale participation from the public, the selected officials are all Four Elephants believers. Can the aristocratic families sit still?
If it were a regular court, they would have to worry about rebellions in various places, but what is the court afraid of now? There are rebellions everywhere. Now the court only controls the surrounding areas of the capital, the Jianghuai area, and the Yanmen garrison. Even the Tang family in Jiangnan is not sure whether it can be counted. It is a mess that has been broken down. It is tantamount to rebuilding the world from scratch. The only forces that need to be gambled are the old forces such as Lu Jianzhang. If not now, when?
It's just that Xia Chichi was talking about business, and his heart was floating.
I don't know when the damn turtle ran away... Is this how you do it, Venerable? She didn't give a shit from beginning to end, sitting aside as a mascot, and almost cracking some sunflower seeds. When it came to important government affairs, she didn't even crack some sunflower seeds and ran away.
One was sneaking around, the other was dating a man, and she was the only one left in such a big sect working seriously. Xia Chichi finally knew what a boomerang was, and this time it hit her. What mood did Suzaku Reverend maintain this sect in the first place...
Wait a minute...
She supported me to be the leader, and she was willing to be the assistant. Isn't it selfless, but essentially she wanted to get rid of the mess?
…………
When Xia Chichi was trying to be the leader, Suzaku Reverend collapsed on the altar table, with his mask on, his eyes blank, and his robes open to the left and right. His legs hung weakly on the side of the table, bouncing.
The copied doctrines were scattered all over the ground, like snowflakes floating in the sky.
Zhuque's mind was confused, thinking, if the devil was offering sacrifices, was this the most typical scene of the devil's festival?
Even Zhao Changhe's performance was very different from when he was doing it with Huangfu Qing before, and he was obviously more excited.
As expected, the gods and demons thought at the same time.
But the surge of power in the body was real. If it was said that when he just subdued Xinyan, he broke through the third level of secret storage, and after so much precipitation, he reached the middle level, then now he can definitely be called the top of the third level, just on the threshold of the realm of control.
If you want to break through the realm of control, it's very simple. You really have to reach the place where the consciousness was wandering before, and experience it in person once.
To say that this was achieved through dual cultivation is not the right answer. Dual cultivation is just a key. What really achieved this was the analysis of the Heavenly Book and the mustard seed-like movement of the universe. This was not Zhao Changhe's own method, but this underground secret realm was a magic weapon. This was the effect of the magic weapon. What could be done here was very different from what could be done outside.
But Zhuque was sure that even if it was Xia Longyuan, he could descend to any place in the sky, but he could not take people to travel. Otherwise, taking Xia Chichi to travel to Tianya Island directly could save a lot of things and reduce a lot of variables, which means that Xia Longyuan could definitely not take people with him, but Zhao Changhe did it.
"How did you do it?" Zhuque sat up weakly, leaning on the man's arms and whispered: "Your practice has just broken through the third secret treasure, how did you do this kind of thing that only gods can do?" Zhao Changhe lowered his head and kissed her: "I'm telling the truth, don't think I'm deliberately picking what you like to hear." Zhuque shook his head: "No." Zhao Changhe said: "When I forged the Galaxy Sword, the things these stars reacted to really listen to me. My control over this sky is better than Lao Xia himself. Otherwise, what's the point of me forging the sword... In this sense, I am really the Night Emperor, and I don't need you to argue there Is it a traitor to tie the knot with yourself? "
Zhuque was stunned for a long time: "You didn't say it before? You deliberately challenged me and had to subdue me, right?"
"How can you believe it if it's not effective?" Zhao Changhe said: "Besides, I really don't intend to do anything in the name of any gods... Between you and me, it's just you and me. If you want to beat me, you still beat me, if you want to punish me, you still punish me. Is it interesting to say that you are a god?"
When the feelings between two people are just a matter between the two of them, not because of so-called beliefs, but after the event, they find that he is indeed related to the belief, that feeling really makes Zhuque feel very happy. She pouted slightly and whispered: "You only know how to say nice things. Dare you say you haven't thought about letting the Suzaku Master kneel in front of you?"
Zhao Changhe whispered in her ear: "You know what I want..."
Suzaku said: "You want to humiliate me again, don't you? Why don't you do this to Tang Wanzhuang?"
It started...
Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and whispered: "But what I like most is Suzaku's lips... I don't have such strong thoughts about others..."
Suzaku didn't know whether he should feel proud or ashamed of his obsession, and now Suzaku no longer needs to show Suzaku's reserve in front of him, and he is willing in his heart.
But at this moment Suzaku didn't do what he wanted. The phoenix eyes under the mask turned around, and suddenly said: "I don't believe it. If someone else comes, you may be just as happy..."
As the voice sounded, the seemingly soft and weak hand suddenly grabbed outward: "For example, her?"
With a sound of "Aiya", a Sanniang was grabbed from nowhere.
She sneaked in and was about to watch Zhuque's oral service, but was caught off guard and couldn't withstand the rapid progress of Zhuque's practice. She flew up like a cloud and fell on the stage.
"Uh... That, what a coincidence, you are here too..." Sanniang retreated cautiously: "I was just passing by, you continue, continue..."
This time Zhao Changhe didn't hold back and pulled her back: "Are you happy to use the out-of-context video editing to trick me this morning? Xuanwu Zun, what crime should you be punished for?"
