Strange mountains and rivers

Chen Huaisheng and Chen Song spent a lot of time understanding the specific situations of Shitangzhuang and Datuweizi.

Xu Muyang and a group of people were here to prepare for the next step of relocating the Chonghua Sect as a whole, and Chen Huaisheng and Chen Song became the vanguard of the group.

Shitangzhuang can be regarded as the starting point for dissecting sparrows, and it is also the most typical sparrow.

Shitangzhuang is in the middle of the dozen or so villages around Daduweizi, with a relatively average population, resources, and clan surnames.

It is neither a village composed of a large number of surnames, nor a village with a single surname. From the number of Taoist species to the status of the monks who have succeeded in refining Qi, it is the kind of village that cannot be missed.

Chen Huaisheng was still discussing with Chen Song until he went to sleep.

Now that they are here, the Ice Scale Blood Python has already eaten and left. Given such an opportunity, they will definitely stay and spend a day or two to capture Shitangzhuang first.

Then, using the subsequent impact of this incident, more than ten villages and villages around Dashuweizi were quickly brought into the influence of the Chonghua Sect.

Taking Dashuweizi as the breakthrough point, we will expand to other villages and towns around Wolong Ridge.

Solve the problems of Shitangzhuang and even Datuweizi, just like the Chonghua sect did in Langling, so that these places can willingly and sincerely become the sphere of influence of the Chonghua sect, and there is no room for loss.

"The entire Shitang Village is currently under fourteen years old. There are nine innate Taoist people who have awakened their spiritual roots, and there are still eight people who have not yet awakened their Taoist seeds. There are seventeen people in total, which is not a small number..."

Chen Huaisheng sat on the kang bed and said calmly, "But I guess there is something fishy in it."

"Oh?" Chen Song was surprised, "You mean they are so bold and dare to deceive us? What is their purpose?"

"There are seventeen people, and only two of them have mixed surnames other than Shitang. But I have asked, of the more than 5,000 people in Shitang Village, only 60% have the surname Shitang, and the remaining 40%, that is, more than 2,000 people." People all have mixed surnames, but only 10% of them are Taoist races. Is this possible?"

Chen Huaisheng further said: "According to what Tang Yuanlong said, there are about 400 to 500 babies born in Shitangzhuang every year, and the number of Taoist children is maintained at about three to six every year. Calculating, a seven-year-old Mingdao bone, ten With four awakening spiritual roots, there should be around 234 to 278 people in seven years, but there are only 17 of them, leaving a gap of eight or nine people, where did they go?"

Chen Song didn't expect that Chen Huaisheng would be so sensitive to these numbers and pay so much attention to the details. He then inferred that the people in Shitangzhuang were lying. He thought for a while and said, "They don't want those with mixed surnames to be selected by us to enter the sect." ?”

"Haha, although we did not clearly inform them of the number of disciples that the sect would choose when selecting disciples, we can all guess that it is impossible for everyone to be selected. It may be one from three, one from four, or even less, and foreign surnames can be excluded. , firstly, it increases the chance of being selected from the family, and secondly, it can also prevent those talented children with other surnames from entering the sect and becoming successful, will it challenge their power structure in Zhuangzi?"

Chen Song had to admire this young junior brother's understanding and grasp of people's emotions.

I don’t know how this guy is not only extremely talented in cultivation, but he is also so familiar with these people’s sophistication and sinister hearts, just like an old thief who has been immersed in the world for hundreds of years.

"Huai Sheng, if this is the case, we shouldn't be too harsh. After all, this is an internal matter within the clan village. It is impossible for the clan to care about these details. In the future, we can only follow the Tao seeds recommended by others. Choose one,..."

Chen Song's words were not recognized by Chen Huaisheng.

"Senior Brother Chen, it would be fine if we were in Langling, but when we first came here, the sect is in urgent need of additional manpower, especially outstanding talents. I'm afraid you also know that the sect plans to establish a new location in Hebei within ten to thirty years. After establishing a firm foothold, we have to plan to return to Yijun and recapture Langshan Panshan, which belongs to us. Therefore, recruiting and selecting talents is the top priority. It cannot be said that no talent can be missed, but Shi Tangzhuang did this. I don’t think it’s acceptable.”

Chen Huaisheng's words made Chen Song frown.

After finally laying a good foundation with Shitangzhuang, Chen Song was really unwilling to estrange the relationship with Shitangzhuang. He felt that it was not worth wasting too much energy on these minutiae.

In addition to Shitangzhuang, there are about a dozen villages in Datuweizi, as well as villages and towns such as Minjialou and Dawang Town. They are still waiting to go. It is inappropriate to waste time here.

But he also knew what Chen Huaisheng believed, and it would be inappropriate for him to oppose it. He still understood the difference between master and slave.

"Then Huaisheng, what do you think we should do?"

Chen Huaisheng shook his head: "I haven't thought about it. No matter what I do, I don't think it's appropriate. I think there are actually some people in the group today who are hesitant to speak. I guess they should be the monks with mixed surnames, but they are afraid of the power of the Tang family, and they may I dare not point it out."

This situation happened at this first stop, which is really unpleasant, but it is also conceivable and cannot be avoided.

Even cultivating the truth and cultivating immortals are still full of this kind of worldly relations and interest disputes, especially among clans and surnames, which are inescapable.

The two of them were chatting like this, and outside the courtyard where they rested, there were also people who were unwilling to accept it.

"Uncle, please let me in. We kowtow to you. If we miss this opportunity, our Ren family will have no hope..."

A girl of twelve or thirteen years old knelt in front of the man, leading another boy of only eight or nine years old, who also knelt and kowtowed repeatedly.

The middle-aged man sighed, "Second girl, if you go, you will put the Ren family on fire. We are from a small family, how can we be at odds with the Shi family and the Tang family? Even if you two are really The Chonghua sect has been chosen, but what about the rest of the Ren family? What will they do in the future?"

"Uncle, the rest of the Ren family are ordinary people. Even if the historians of the Tang family want to embarrass them, they will not find them. As for my parents, the difficulties will only be difficult for the past two years. As long as the younger brother can survive, then the historians of the Tang family will also be able to survive in the future. It may not happen to our Ren family, but if our Ren family continues to be like this, when will we be able to make a difference?"

The girl is thin, but her eyes are full of stubbornness and determination, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In the future, perhaps the Chonghua Sect will recruit disciples through recommendations from villages, and we will have no chance. It is rare for Chonghua Immortal Master This time, please uncle, please help us. If those two immortal masters have not taken a liking to us siblings, we will just turn around and leave without any entanglement..."

The man who was responsible for guarding the door looked embarrassed, but when he saw the girl and the boy kowtowing blindly, even their foreheads were red and swollen, he couldn't bear it.

Thinking that their parents had been honest all their lives, but they clearly had such good talents and qualifications, but were suppressed by the Shitang family, the two siblings were not even considered in the list.

He was also unhappy before, but he was just speaking softly. How could it be their turn to speak in this Shitang Village?

If this time the two siblings are really attracted by Immortal Master Chonghua, enter the sect, and really become disciples of Chonghua in the future, even if the Ren family cannot be as prosperous as the Shitang family, at least it will be You won't be bullied and manipulated at will.

What's more, my wife is also pregnant. What if she gives birth to a Taoist child in the future? With these two siblings taking care of her, maybe she can join the Chonghua Sect in the future?

Gritting his teeth, the man looked around, and then lowered his voice and said: "You two go in quickly. It's in the courtyard in front. I can only guard it for an hour. If you don't get caught by the immortal master after you go in, then you can go in immediately." Come out and don’t let it leak out. If you are really lucky and fall in love with the immortal master, you must ask the immortal master to make an idea for you to keep your family’s peace..."

"Thank you uncle, thank you uncle!"

After kowtowing several times, the two siblings were filled with gratitude and quietly admitted to the hospital.

Chen Huaisheng and Chen Song had already discovered it before the two siblings were admitted to the hospital.

When they entered the courtyard and knelt down at the door, Chen Huaisheng and Chen Song looked at each other in shock.

We were still talking about it before, isn’t it coming now?

After letting the two of them enter the room and stand still, Chen Huaisheng began to look at the two siblings.

My sister is about twelve or thirteen years old. She may be the child of a poor person who has been in charge of the family for a long time. The little girl is pretty and pretty, but she is quite bold and sharp, articulate, and her words are quite pleasant.

The nine-year-old boy and the little girl looked very similar at first glance, but they seemed quite honest at first glance, with only his sister following her lead.

"Ren family, Ren Wugou, Ren Wuchen?" Chen Huaisheng's consciousness had already looked around the two of them.

I have to say that these two siblings were indeed somewhat confident when they came to knock on the door late at night.

****

The third update, please brothers, please guarantee your monthly tickets! Keep up the good work, Lao Rui!

Especially the boy Ren Wuchen. Although he is young, his spiritual roots have been awakened, and he has a rare three-attribute spiritual root.

It is composed of water, wood and earth, but the earth spiritual root is a hidden spiritual root. If ordinary people detect it, they can only find that it is an innate Tao species with dual spiritual roots.

And the Taoist bones are also quite pure and honest.

The young girl Ren Wugao has a typical single spiritual root. Her golden spiritual root is quite obvious, and her sharp temperament cannot hide it.

"Immortal Master, this little girl risked her life to knock on the door late at night. She only hopes that the Immortal Master can accept my brother in the door. My brother has been enlightened since childhood and is very talented. He awakened his spiritual roots at the age of eight. Such a talent, but it is a pity that he can only be a pearl. Covered in dust and hidden in the sand, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that the Immortal Master comes to our Shitang Village, so the little girl is willing to violate taboos and come to ask..."

Chen Huaisheng's eyes fell on the girl's face. Although the girl was hiding it, her slightly immature acting skills still seemed a little shallow in front of Chen Huaisheng. After all, she was a girl of twelve or thirteen years old. She could do this. It's not easy anymore.

I just don't know who was behind it, instigating this girl to go like this, but the intention cannot be separated from what I and Chen Song said before, there are always people who want to take the risk.

It seems that the Shitang family is indeed somewhat unpopular in Shitang Village, but it cannot be called unpopular. It should be considered normal operation in this world.

Any major surname will protect the interests of its own clan first. As for the interests of other minor surnames, it is natural to benefit oneself at the expense of others.
