Strange Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 322 Volume C There Are Also Waves Within the Sect

For a moment, Chen Huaisheng was a little dazed.

Among the people who entered the Yishe when he first entered the Yishe, the first one he met was Peng Youshu, and the one he was most familiar with was Hu Delu.

Zhuo Yixing and Zhao Wuyou were latecomers.

In a sense, when he entered the Yishe of the Transmission Academy, Zhao Wuyou was already ahead of him and Hu Delu. Although Hu Delu caught up later, Zhao Wuyou is now ahead again. It is normal for you to catch up with me, so Hu Delu can accept it.

Zhuo Yixing is even more talented and showed a crushing trend from the beginning, so it’s nothing.

But Peng Youshu was as mediocre as everyone else more than three years ago.

Now Hu Delu is still mediocre, but Peng Youshu has become a disciple of the foundation-building elder Ma Daochun. Seeing that he is about to take off, it is no wonder that Hu Delu is a little anxious.

Seeing Chen Huaisheng remained silent, Min Qingyu said softly: "It's late at night, Taoist Master, go back to your room and rest."

Chen Huaisheng shook his head, but still returned to the hall and sat in a chair in deep thought.

I didn't expect that the situation of the sect had changed so much in the short two months since I went out.

I was obsessed with what I gained from this trip, so I ignored these things a little, and I didn't realize that Hu Delu and others were in a different state of mind now.

They had more urgent ideas and requests.

Qingyu was quite meticulous and thorough in this regard. She observed all these things that I didn't pay much attention to.

"Qingyu, the sect has changed a lot, do you still know that?" Chen Huaisheng sighed, "I used to be very close to Delu and the others, and we talked about everything, but now I feel that Delu seems to be a little estranged from me, and many things are hidden in my stomach. I have become deaf and blind."

"No, Taoist Master, you misunderstood. Senior Brother Hu and the others are still very close to you. After you talked to them a few days ago, they were very excited and happy. Qingyu could feel it."

Min Qingyu walked behind Chen Huaisheng, put his hands on Chen Huaisheng's shoulders, and massaged him to relieve his fatigue.

"Oh, but today they..." Chen Huaisheng pondered.

"Your status is different now. You may not feel it, but they are more sensitive. You are now in the high stage of Qi Refining. Among the hundreds of disciples in the sect, perhaps half of them cannot reach your current level. Moreover, you are the master's direct disciple. Master Shang has been in charge of the sect for fifty years, and now there are only seven direct disciples. However, Senior Brother Hu and his friends are still ordinary disciples in the academy, and they cannot even enter the middle stage of Qi Refining. This sense of gap, coupled with the change in the status of Senior Brother Peng and his friends, so..."

Inferiority? Lonely?

"Will it not mean that I will become increasingly alienated from them and drift apart in the future? Will many people eventually reach this point?" Chen Huaisheng smiled self-deprecatingly, "What should I do?"

"No, you see they still take the initiative to come to you today, which shows that you still maintain the original friendship. You may be a little worried, but as long as you handle it properly, what you are worried about may not happen,..., but maybe it takes some opportunities and appropriate adjustments,..."

Min Qingyu's delicate thoughts surprised Chen Huaisheng. He felt that such a companion he accepted out of helplessness might really be a pleasant surprise.

"Then what do you think I should do better now?" Chen Huaisheng raised his head, rested his head on the back of the chair, closed his eyes and asked softly.

Min Qingyu's slender fingers went from the neck and Dazhui to the temples on both sides of the head. This was the first time she had such close contact with Chen Huaisheng, and such parts were difficult to touch without close relatives.

And he did not refuse, which also meant that his relationship with him was closer.

It seemed that he was very satisfied with some of her previous analysis and judgment, which made her secretly happy and relieved at the same time.

Ren Wujiu's appearance put some pressure on her.

After coming to the mountain gate, she learned from Hu Delu, Sanderling and Zhao Liangkui that there were two women in his life.

One was at the sixth level of Qi Refining, even ten years older than him, but now she is missing.

One was his junior sister, the disciple of the head of the sect, who seemed to be very familiar with Senior Brother Hu and the others, and had a bit of a childhood sweetheart feeling, but because the sect moved north, there seemed to be some changes, so she disappeared from his side.

But no matter what, this made her suddenly alert. A 24-year-old Qi Refining Seventh Level, no matter which sect, is a star and the focus of everyone's attention. She is not sure what her future will be like, but she knows that staying with him is her only wise choice now.

There are competitors, and if she wants to stay, then she must do better and make it difficult for him to leave her for a moment.

"Perhaps letting Senior Brother Hu and the others see hope, that they have achieved their goals through their own efforts, is the best way, even if it is just a little progress, a little success,..."

Min Qingyu's suggestion is in line with Chen Huaisheng's idea, and he also thinks so.

Maybe he needs to create a model to inspire everyone's confidence.

This is the first Chinese New Year celebration of the Chonghua Sect after it moved to Wolong Ridge in Fuyang Road, and it is also very meaningful for the entire Chonghua Sect.

On the third day of the first lunar month, except for those who are in seclusion or traveling outside, the entire sect held a grand celebration, and everyone had to participate.

There are two important activities in the celebration, one is the lecture of scriptures, and the other is to perform on stage.

The former strives to pass on the secrets of the skills so that all disciples can understand at every level, and the latter inspires people's hearts so that disciples can have their own thoughts and goals.

Wang Yao ascended to the position of elder. Currently, there are only 29 disciples left in the inner hall of the Transmission Academy. Among these 29 people, there are less than 20 real backbones. The remaining 10 are basically over 100 years old and can only be symbolic numbers.

"Master Gou is also in seclusion?" Chen Huaisheng was a little surprised when he didn't see Gou Yiwei.

In this kind of occasion, if you don't attend, you can only be in seclusion.

"No, he went out to travel." The one who answered was Yao Liwei, and his words were quite sad. "Huaisheng, you don't know yet, right? Uncle Gou has been in seclusion for a long time. He finally reached the peak again during the Xiaoxue period, and then he went out to travel and never returned."

"Ah?" Chen Huaisheng was really surprised. "Uncle Gou really reached the peak again? That's really worth writing about."

"Yes, many people in the sect are over 80 years old and feel that it is difficult to break through the realm and build a foundation, so they are depressed and content with the status quo, or they are just for the sake of their children and grandchildren, and they ask for too much. There are still many such people, and the elders of the sect are not easy to deal with, which makes many disciples in the Transmission Academy complain."

Yao Liwei's tone was a bit heavy, and Liu Chun next to him coughed lightly: "Liwei, be careful."

With Xu Tianfeng and Cao Renben both preparing to impact the foundation, the real pillar of the current ninth-level Qi Refining is this Senior Brother Liu.

And there are three other ninth-level Qi Refining, all of whom are over 110 years old, and one of them is already over 120 years old, basically enjoying their old age.

Chen Huaisheng was not familiar with this Senior Brother Liu.

Because when he went to the Bianjing Daohui, he was in seclusion to break through the ninth level of Qi Refining. When he succeeded in seclusion, he had to move north to Fuyang.

So by chance, he and Liu Chun had not met a few times, and he heard more about this Senior Brother from Xu Tianfeng and Yao Liwei.

Silent, heavy and simple, this is the impression given to him by Xu Tianfeng and Yao Liwei's words.

He looks like a steady person.

Yao Liwei is now the right director of the Transmission Academy. After Cao Renben's seclusion, this position is actually the role second only to the head of the Transmission Academy, and You Shaoyou has handed over many affairs to him, so he is now responsible for a lot of affairs and is under great pressure.

In the past two years, from Langling to Fuyang, from Dazhao to Hebei, the number of disciples has doubled, and they are all young disciples. Now the number of disciples in the outer hall of the Transmission Academy has reached more than 200. Every day, they have to eat and eat, teach and teach, and practice. It can be said that it is complicated and necessary, which makes Yao Liwei a little exhausted.

He has proposed several times that he wants to resign from this position and settle down to practice again, but now there is no suitable talent in the sect who can take on this important task and convince the public, so he can only persist for the time being.

The strongest response in the Transmission Academy now is that these inner hall people have taken up too many resources, and the outer hall disciples cannot be said to be short of food and clothing, but the difference is too big, and it feels a bit like they can't get enough help.

After relocating to Hebei, the Chonghua Sect carried out reforms, drastically reducing the number of people in the Internal Affairs Office and the Reception Office. The Law Enforcement Office did not have special personnel, but was temporarily transferred from the Transmission Office. The main purpose was to promote the cultivation of all disciples regardless of age or position. However, this measure can only have some effect on those disciples under the age of eighty who are not motivated to make progress, and it is difficult to implement for those elderly people over eighty.

That's fine, but these elderly people over eighty and at a high level of Qi Refining are not soft-handed in allocating resources to the sect, and they often ask the sect's deacons and elders to increase the allocation of spirit stones, spirit food, and spirit materials. If there is something unsatisfactory in the Transmission Office, they will complain to Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi, which makes You Shaoyou feel headache, and Yao Liwei is even more angry.

After several increases, they were still not satisfied. However, these people basically did not participate in the practice tests. Whenever they encountered the tests every season, they would find various reasons to refuse. This behavior also caused great dissatisfaction among the disciples of the other two halls of the Transmission Academy. Yao Liwei reported this matter to the Deacons' Council and the Elders' Council several times, but it was all in vain.

So through the various activities of this annual ceremony, Yao Liwei will take this opportunity to rectify and clean up these people, expose their ugliness in front of all the disciples, so that these people can be restrained.

Saying these words is just to find a reason first, so that everyone can be mentally prepared for the next step.
