Build the Traveler Alliance from scratch

Looking at the faint smile on Chen Pingping's face, Fan Xian couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

It's wrong to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha, and it's wrong to kill someone with a borrowed knife...

In short, this method of using others' strength to achieve one's own goals really amazed Fan Xian.

It is foreseeable that one day in the future, the eldest princess will definitely release this news to prevent Fan Xian from taking over the inner treasury from her.

As everyone knows, this is actually promoted secretly by Chen Pingping behind the scenes.

"Absolutely amazing!" Fan Xian exclaimed in admiration, "Your hand is really light and there is no trace!"

"But..." Fan Xian said hesitantly, "Will Zhu Ge have any suspicion?"

Chen Pingping smiled and said, "Don't worry, he won't be suspicious."

"Zhu Ge is a smart man, but smart people have a problem, that is, they like to think wildly. I never mentioned your relationship with the Ye family. I only put the information about the Ye family's trading company on the table together with your information."

"Zuge is an old man from the Overwatch Council. He knows about the relationship between me and your mother back then. Seeing that I was so kind to you, he will naturally connect the two things."

"Of course, in order to prevent him from being too stupid, I tested Zhu Ge."

"Sure enough, he asked about your identity unintentionally after reporting on work."

"I beat him a lot, but I was also sure in my heart that he already knows that you are Ye Qingmei's son..."

Chen Pingping said it in an understatement, but Fan Xian could imagine the fierce confrontation between him and Zhuge.

Overt and covert attacks, intrigues, these are the skills that the director of the Overwatch Council must master.

Fan Xian sighed in his heart, thinking that he would never be able to do it as easily as Chen Pingping.

Chen Pingping walked over with a smile: "Have you received the news about Honglu Temple?"

Fan Xian didn't react for a while, and subconsciously said: "What news?"

Chen Pingping sat on the wheelchair again, straightened her sleeves, looked up at Fan Xian and chuckled: "You were assassinated on Niulan Street. The emperor used this reason to go to war with Northern Qi. Now Qing has won consecutive battles, and Northern Qi is celebrating." Defeat and retreat."

"But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. With the current national strength and population of Qing State, it cannot swallow the behemoth of Northern Qi. Therefore, we in Qing State plan to stop as soon as possible."

"The same is true for Northern Qi. They have sent a mission to prepare for peace talks with our country."

Fan Xian smiled and said, "I know that. You don't mean to say that the emperor plans to appoint me as the deputy reception envoy, right?"

"Return?" Chen Pingping raised her eyebrows, "Is the future you saw in heaven the same?"

Fen In exchange for Xiao Xiao and Si Lili returning to Northern Qi, they persuaded the literary master Zhuang Mohan who came with the delegation to join forces with her to frame me for copying poems."

Chen Pingping said in surprise: "Is this happening?"

Fan Xian nodded solemnly and said, "Well, also, Sean is actually Zhuang Mohan's biological brother."

Chen Pingping was slightly stunned: "Sean is Zhuang Mohan's biological brother... I asked him why he would risk his reputation for the rest of his life and join forces with the eldest princess."

At this point, Chen Pingping paused, suddenly raised the corners of her mouth, smiled and sighed: "Even I don't know this kind of secret, but you can tell it casually... Heaven, how awesome it is!"

Saying that, Chen Pingping shook her head again and said: "You should have told me earlier if there was such news. If the eldest princess really had such a plan, she would not be able to use the information of the descendants of the Ye family to attack you during that time. She would only Hide it as a trump card.”

Hearing Chen Pingping's words, Fan Xian felt a little innocent and helpless.

He didn't know that Chen Pingping would want to use the power of the eldest princess to release the news!

Chen Pingping smiled and said: "Fortunately, I was worried that you would be impatient to wait, so I made two preparations."

Fan Xian said happily: "Uncle Chen knows things like a god and knows all the plans. My nephew admires him!"

Chen Pingping enjoyed Fan Xian's compliment very much. She smiled and waved her hand and said, "Okay, stop talking so much. If you have nothing to do, go back quickly. People from Honglu Temple should be going to your house to invite people soon."

Fan Xian smiled and cupped his hands, then took out a book from his arms and handed it to Chen Pingping.

Chen Pingping raised her eyebrows, reached out to take it, and looked up.

"'Journey to the West'?"

"Yes." Fan Xian said with a smile, "I plan to publish this book in a few days, but if I want to promote it, just one bookstore will definitely not be enough."

Chen Pingping looked through "Journey to the West" curiously and said with a smile: "Tell me how you want me to help you."

Fan Xian smiled slightly and slowly said three words: "Storyteller!"

…

…

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past half month, apart from taking over the position of receiving the deputy envoy and going to Honglu Temple a few times, Fan Xian spent most of his time busy between the bookstore and the Overwatch Council.

Strange novels such as "Shu Yi Ji" and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" have become popular throughout the city in just half a month.

The abridged version of "Journey to the West", which Fan Xian regards as his trump card, has also been successfully released, and with the cooperation of the Eighth Office of the Overwatch Council and storytellers, it has spread rapidly to the entire Qing Kingdom outside Kyoto at an extremely alarming speed.

All the people of the Qing Kingdom, whether they are dignitaries or ordinary people, enjoy talking about the stories in this book.

Some people with little knowledge even quietly set up memorial tablets at home and began to worship the gods, Buddhas and bodhisattvas in the stories.

Faced with this scene that swept the city, Fan Sizhe was naturally overjoyed.

Because the bookstore he opened jointly with his brother made a lot of money.

Fan Xian was also very happy because he saw that many people and even dignitaries had accepted the Chinese mythological background.

Of course, due to the existence of the temple, the court still had some scruples about these new beliefs.

But Emperor Qing didn't care, he was even somewhat happy to see the outcome.

After all, the temple is real, but these so-called gods and Buddhas all over the sky are fake.

Emperor Qing was naturally willing to use public opinion to weaken the temple's influence on the world.

However, Emperor Qing had already contacted the temple at this time, so on the surface, he still wanted to ban the obscene temple and only respect the temple, but he could turn a blind eye when doing things below.

Of course, the reason why Emperor Qing dared to do this was actually thanks to Yamu.

After Yamu left Kyoto, he went all the way north, during which he visited many so-called martial arts masters.

However, because he was too low-key, he only wanted to see if there was anything worth learning from the opponent's martial arts. In addition, the martial artists he defeated easily suspected that the opponent was teasing him and did not want to make him famous, so he did not become famous. The sound came out.

Until not long ago, Yamu met a temple messenger, the gray-clothed master who died at the hands of Wu Zhu in the original work.

At this point, we have to explain the connection between temples and humans.

In this world, there are three main channels for temples to connect with humans.

The first is a temple messenger like Wu Zhu, which is an intelligent bionic robot controlled by the temple.

The second type is the so-called Tianmai, that is, special humans who obey the arrangements of the temple.

The Tianmai people include old humans who have been frozen and revived, and there are also new humans who cooperate with the temple.

But these humans are usually difficult to manage. Once they come to the world, they will change the world according to their own wishes. The most typical example is Ye Qingmei who changed the world back then. So basically, all the Tianmai people eventually became gods. The object that the temple wants to obliterate.

As for the third type, they are the ascetics who believe in the temple.

They are fanatic believers in the temple, but generally they cannot have direct contact with the temple. They are taught martial arts by temple messengers like Wu Zhu and complete the tasks assigned by the temple. They are low-level cannon fodder who do dirty work.

Although the combat effectiveness of the ascetics is relatively average, they are superior because of their large numbers, the bonus of faith, and their fearlessness of life and death.

The temple messenger that Ya Mu met in Northern Qi was an intelligent bionic robot like Wu Zhu.

But unlike Wu Zhu, his consciousness level was obviously not high enough. Not only did he get lost in various ways along the way, but his contact with the temple was also intermittent.

When Yamu saw him, he seemed to detect a high-energy reaction in Yamu, and actually attacked Yamu in the street in full view of the public.

Of course, Yamu's backhand hit him and smashed his body into pieces. The subsequent palm wind even hit the front with unabated force, blasting two huge stone lions in front of a certain mansion into powder.

Seeing this scene, the pedestrians on the street were naturally shocked.

Ya Mu walked up to the twitching corpse in surprise, squatted down, and let the smart butler hack into his system.

Then Yamu found out in silence that the energy supply of this guy's body was insufficient, the CPU utilization rate was less than 1%, and many subsystems including the positioning system were shut down in energy-saving mode.

This caused the temple messenger to be confused.

He only remembered that he was going south to Qingguo to hunt down the descendants of Wu Zhu and Ye Qingmei, but he didn't know anything else.

When he attacked Yamu just now, he actually judged that Yamu was an extraordinary person and wanted to capture him and inquire about Wuzhu's whereabouts.

...Where are all this?

Yamu shook his head helplessly, blasted the unlucky creature into powder with one palm, and then continued to move north.

Naturally, Yamu himself didn't care about this matter.

But those onlookers regarded him as the hidden great master of Northern Qi.

In this way, the identity of Ya Mu’s mysterious grand master was inexplicably made known to the world...

As mentioned before, the martial arts of the ascetic monks were taught by temple messengers.

Yamu killed the temple messenger on the street and did not shy away from his route. This naturally attracted the attention of the temple and the ascetic monks.

After analysis, the temple believed that Yamu's target was probably the temple in the North Pole, so they decisively issued a pursuit order.

As a result, the ascetic monks in Northern Qi and Nanqing mobilized one after another to go to Northern Qi to stop this mysterious grand master.

Some of the ascetic monks in the Qing Temple were also transferred away because of this, which made Emperor Qing dare to attack the temple's beliefs.

Anyway, with that mysterious grand master here, even if he goes too far, he will never become the temple's first target!

Wasn't there an earthquake in Gansu, so I donated some money to the book friends yesterday, which was considered as a gesture of kindness. I was quite proud of it at first, but then I suddenly realized that I seemed to have been taken advantage of. There was a military coat written on the supply list. 150 a piece, and a quilt is also 150. Whose military coat did I buy with this budget? Is it made of gold? Taobao only costs 50 yuan, and the quality is only 70 or 80 yuan. I can earn half of it with tears. , really convinced
