Strange mountains and rivers

Chen Huaisheng also didn't expect Du Guo's injury to be so serious.

He thought that even if Du Guo fell into the Zi Mansion, he should still be in the eighth or ninth level of foundation building. He should have returned to the peak state of foundation building in a year and a half. He should be attacking the Zi Mansion now. Unexpectedly, he was still only at the foundation building level. The state of the base and middle section is a bit bad.

Du Guo has always been the backbone of the disciples of Yuan He Sect.

When the backbone cannot support the situation, this kind of depression and decadence is devastating to the disciples.

Even Chi Mei is like this, which shows what state Yu Xianxian and Xu Beihuai will be in.

Chen Huaisheng felt that the mentality of these disciples was not very good, and they were blindly dependent on someone, but then he thought about it, and it was normal to have such emotions in their situation.

The Jiulian Sect is gone, and the sect branches are extinct. In the new environment, and in a marginalized state, disciples like them, who are neither good nor bad, can't see a future, so what should they do?

Xuan Chimei took a step forward, which seemed to give these people a signal, and also allowed them to see a ray of light in the confusion and darkness, so it was not surprising that they came to inquire.

"Uncle Du Guo's condition is so bad?" Chen Huaisheng sighed. Du Guo is not young anymore. If he is so seriously injured, it is really hard to say whether he can return to the Zi Mansion. "But it doesn't necessarily mean that I, Bailu, will come. Dongfu, right? I think your Yuanhe Sect still has a few foundation builders, right? Shu Zidan is in the Xiyun Sect..."

"After the Xiyun Sect was raided by the Dacheng Sect, it was almost unable to fight back. More than a hundred disciples of the sect disappeared in smoke, and Master Yi was also killed in the battle. There are about twenty people who came to our Chonghua Sect, and the others were not attacked by Dacheng Sect. If the sect is swallowed up, it means that it has become a casual cultivator..."

A trace of hatred appeared on Xuan Chimei's face, "Dacheng Sect is particularly hateful. They intercepted and massacred Xiyun Sect disciples around Tongweng Mountain. They wanted to have iron-blooded means to frighten Xiyun Sect disciples. More than a hundred Xiyun Sect disciples were killed. Only About twenty people merged into the Dacheng Sect, and the remaining thirty or forty people escaped..."

Chen Huaisheng did not expect that Dacheng Sect would be so ruthless. He probably thought that Dacheng Sect was also a newly rising sect. Unlike other sects such as Tianyun Sect and Taihua Dao, he did not have so much energy to digest it, so he simply killed him. No. I am willing to accept these disciples.

"We will repay this grudge one day." Chen Huaisheng also knew that Yuanhe Sect and Xiyun Sect had always been on the same side, and their relationship was unusual, so he could only comfort him like this.

"Brother Huaisheng, what do you mean by Zhiruo and Zidan wanting to come to Bailu Taoist Temple?" Wu Yang and the others should all be like this, but they didn’t say it clearly today..."

Chen Huaisheng was a little proud, but also a little headache.

Xu Beihuai and Ling Fan are both at the fourth level of Qi refining and are preparing to attack the fifth level of Qi refining. In terms of qualifications, they should be much better than Hu Delu and others. Zhang Zhiruo, Shu Zidan and others are slightly less qualified, probably about the same as Hu Delu and others. Wei Wuyang is the most qualified. Difference.

Yu Xianxian's qualifications were not bad either, but Chen Huaisheng felt that he had been delayed in the Yuan He Sect.

What Chen Huaisheng has to consider now is his next plan for Bailu Taoist Academy.

Although he also knew that if he really planned to leave the town in the future, such as the lower courtyard of the White Tower, he would definitely need some helpers around him, but was it appropriate to introduce people from the original Jiulian Sect with such a big fanfare? What would these people within the Chonghua faction think?

Xuan Chimei is different. Everyone knows that they are "childhood sweethearts", and Xuanchimei is also kind to him, so no one says anything when she comes to Bailu Taoist Temple. However, it is different if it is Ling Fan and Xu Huaihuai.

But to be honest, he was very optimistic about the talents and talents of Ling Fan, Xu Huaihuai and Yu Xianxian.

After two years of seclusion, Chen Huaisheng felt that his greatest benefit was that besides breaking through the three spiritual realms, the cauldron refining the spiritual power devoured by the tiger and ape spirits was crucial. At the same time, the refining effect was also reflected in his Taishang Sensing Technique. In combination with divine consciousness, both inner and outer consciousness have advanced to a new level.

Today, he used his sensory consciousness to quietly investigate several people.

Although the qualifications of Ling Fan, Xu Huaihuai and Yu Xianxian are not as good as Xuan Chimei, they are not inferior to Min Qingyu. However, these three people seem to have been delayed in Jiulian Sect. Chen Huaisheng estimates that this should be related to this. In the past few years, the Jiulian Sect has fallen into chaos to a certain extent due to internal strife.

Ling Fan and Xu Beihuai have just turned twenty. It is not impossible to reach the top level of Qi training within five years. If they are well trained and trained, they should have great potential to reach the foundation building around the age of thirty-five.

Now Chen Huaisheng needs to think about what he can give these people if he accepts them as investors?

My own practice has progressed so quickly, and I know in my heart what is going on. The experiences I told them before are only one aspect. The two spirits of tiger and ape in my body, the cauldron, and even the things I have encountered repeatedly in the past few years. All kinds of encounters and these factors are combined to be complete, but these aspects cannot be shown to others by themselves.

I agreed with these people to join the White Deer Taoist Temple, but a few years later, their entry was not satisfactory. It would have been better to have declined from the beginning.

To accept them, you must make their improvement and achievements in the next few years meet their expectations, or even exceed their expectations. Only in this way is it meaningful and can you firmly attract them to you.

How high are their expectations, and can they achieve this now?

Seeing that Chen Huaisheng remained silent, Xuan Chimei also knew the difficulty of this matter.

Brother Huaisheng is not a narrow-minded person. If he can help someone, he will definitely not refuse. However, accepting these people to join the Taoist Academy will bring a series of subsequent problems, including that the future of these people will be firmly bound to Bailu Taoist Academy and Brother Huaisheng.

This is not a trivial matter. If you are not careful, it will ruin the relationship between the two parties that was originally good.

"Chi Mei, I am willing to help them, but I need to consider whether I have the ability to help them." Chen Huaisheng pondered for a long time, "Ling Fan and Bei Huai are both talented. If I accept them, I have to be responsible for them and have the responsibility to give them a better future, but I don't seem to be fully prepared for this now."

Xuan Chi Mei's heart moved slightly, and she asked softly: "Brother Huai Sheng, you mean that you are still willing to accept them in your heart, and even help them have a better future, but you feel that the conditions are not yet mature. What is still lacking?"

Chen Huaisheng held Xuan Chi Mei's hand and was silent for a long time, "I haven't thought about it yet. This also involves my judgment on the changes in the entire sect and even the general situation in the next few years. I mentioned some of it with Bao Liu before, but two years have passed and the situation is still changing. I need to consider it more carefully before making a decision."

"Then I wonder if my younger sister can help Brother Huai Sheng to discuss it?" Xuan Chi Mei asked intently.

Chen Huaisheng laughed, "Of course, is there anything I am hiding from you?"

Chen Huaisheng then analyzed what he had said to Fang Baoliu before, combined with the situation in the past two years, the surging tide of monsters, the potential risks brought by the current situation of the sect,...

Xuan Chimei was shocked and couldn't help asking, "Brother Huaisheng, if that's the case, shouldn't we strengthen the strength of the White Deer Taoist Academy to deal with various crises and risks? Why is Brother Huaisheng still so timid?"

"Chimei, this is just my judgment. In addition, strengthening strength requires There are not enough resources to support it. To be frank, Ling Fan and Xu Beihuai joining in will not enhance the strength of Bailu Daoyuan. On the contrary, we have to allocate more resources and energy to help them. If we have enough time, it will be fine, but now I am afraid that we will not be given too much time. "

Xuan Chimei frowned, "Brother Huaisheng said that there is not much time. Does it mean the monster tide or the risk of internal strife in the sect? Since Brother Huaisheng has seen these risks, why don't you raise them to the elders of the sect and ask them to pay attention to them? "

Chen Huaisheng laughed, "How do you know that I didn't tell the elders of the sect? ? Everyone knows about the monster tide, but who can predict its intensity and duration? What I said is just a possibility. What happened two or three hundred years ago may be a special case. Why do you assert that it will happen again? "

"As for the possibility of internal strife in the sect due to the existence of factions, can such a thing be said casually? If I really say it out, Master Qi and Master Linghu will have to turn against me, and even Master Ding will probably have a grudge against me. Do you think the head of the sect doesn't understand it? But understanding is one thing, but it can't be shown on the face, nor can it be targeted openly. You can only deal with it secretly, and you have to We need to consider the reactions of others. If we are not careful, we will end up making things worse and causing this risk to break out in advance and become uncontrollable...."

Chen Huaisheng sighed, "This is a possibility. Maybe the situation of the sect can continue to stabilize. As long as there are no external factors, it may be able to slowly merge and become controllable, and eventually become invisible. This situation also exists. Therefore, there are too many variables, and no one dares to act rashly..."

Li Yu did a good job, but it is hard to say whether he can eliminate these contradictions and risks by his own means.

"Brother Huaisheng, I think you are still thinking too much." Xuan Chimei said disapprovingly: "Since you have such concerns, let's not think too much and work according to one goal, which is to enrich and strengthen the strength of our Bailu Daoyuan so that we can deal with various dangers. Since you are optimistic about Ling Fan and Xu Beihuai, let them come. You can guide them well. After all, one more person means one more force..."
