I am your natural enemy

#680 - Stairs, accept the task

"By the way, what's the difference between this idea and wanting to cover the Pacific Ocean?" Wen Yan looked confused.

The director general was at a loss for words. What kind of explanation was this?

“When looking at a problem, we must consider the situation at the time.

At that time, the most powerful person, to use today's words, did not have the strength of a mini excavator.

A troublesome ghost might even be killed by the blood and energy of a team of enthusiastic recruits.

Even the old Taoist priest at that time, after performing rituals for a long time, was considered quite good if he could summon some talisman fire.

Given the situation at the time, no one would have thought that it would become what it is today in just a few decades.

Forty years ago, some people saved tens of thousands of yuan and thought it was enough for them to spend, so they were ready to live out their retirement years in peace. How is it now?

If the situation was critical, how could there be calls to disband the Lieyang Tribe, and such a loud voice?

Based on the knowledge at that time and by comparing with the classics, we can judge the revival of spiritual energy and define the situation of the revival of spiritual energy.

Everyone's understanding of the revival of spiritual energy is still at the point where guns and cannons are enough to suppress and deal with everything.

In addition, there are people with completely different ideas and thoughts.

And at that time, some people and some chaos appeared.

There are also reasons such as the policies at the time, and many other factors combined.

It is normal that some conservatives who are unwilling to accept the revival of spiritual energy have extreme ideas.

Ideas are one thing, but actually doing things is another matter.

That was what Ban Weiang was like back then. Although what he said was a bit outrageous, he was very reliable in doing things.

At that time, he was a passionate and enthusiastic young man.

I don’t know what happened later, but he became what he is now.”

"Director, did you call me here just to tell me this?" Wen Yan interrupted the director's melancholy and asked the point directly.

"I'll tell you something first, so you can have an idea of ​​what's going on."

"So, what exactly is this person trying to do by fanning the flames and instigating the people in the Heavenly Master's Mansion to assassinate the old Heavenly Master?"

At the beginning, Wen Yan thought that this kind of thing would definitely cause a stir, and it would be easier to do other things after the chaos.

But after listening to what the director said, Wen Yan felt that if that person was so deliberate in cutting off ties with the past.

His temperament and many of his thoughts probably haven't changed completely.

He even felt that this person might not care at all whether the assassination of the old Taoist priest was successful or not.

Perhaps none of those who fled to Decheng were sent by him.

Wen Yan, an outsider, knew clearly that in the current Tianshi Mansion, the few guys whose age, status, qualifications, etc. were just barely suitable and had hope of succeeding the position of Tianshi, had too big a gap in strength with the old Tianshi, and it seemed unsuitable for anyone to be the successor.

Now looking back on it, no matter what the outcome of this incident is, there will be some results that remain unchanged in the end.

Those are the few people, and no one else is likely to succeed.

The Tianshi Mansion will surely be plunged into chaos for a while, and everything those people were doing before will surely be put on hold.

And later on, we must reselect promising successors, or focus on training younger people.

If we ignore success or failure and only look at what will happen after the two occur, there are indeed many situations.

Under the current circumstances, the Tianshi Mansion must be short of manpower, especially the masters.

Before, the old Taoist priest was guarding the Cloud Sea Cliff alone. Judging from the situation in the past few days, now at least three high-level Taoist priests should be on standby on a daily basis.

If there is any unusual movement in the sea of ​​clouds, it would take at least eight high-level Taoist priests to take shifts to barely hold on.

In extreme situations or when the stalemate lasts too long, it will take at least twelve or more.

In the Tianshi Mansion, regardless of seniority, only strength is considered. Under extreme circumstances, there are only so many high-level Taoist priests who can withstand it.

This means that all the things these Taoist priests could or wanted to do have to be put on hold.

After all, the sea of ​​clouds and cliffs are the top priority.

The intersection of that ghost place is in the sea of ​​clouds, and it is not a fixed intersection like the Decheng intersection that can be seen and touched.

At the main intersection of Decheng, in extreme cases, others can also risk walking down.

But at the Yunhai Cliff, an army is of no use. The most effective way to defend it is the big altar on the edge of the cliff.

"Director General, do you want me to take over the tasks of the Taoist priests in Tianshi Mansion, or what they are about to do?"

“Yes, I am not confident about letting other people take over now. It’s not that I am worried about their ability, but I am worried about the people.

I'm not sure if one of them will be the person the other wants.

Even now, I feel that letting you take over is what some people want.

But this is the best arrangement I think.”

"What mission is there? Let me see first."

The director waved his hand, and some information appeared on the screen on the wall.

The first one was related to Dongting Lake. Wen Yan had a vague impression of it. He had heard before that a dragon roar could be heard from it.

The second one is related to the Yangtze River. There is a water god there. He was unlucky and forgot that the Huai River is connected to the Yangtze River. The information says that the guy was beaten when he passed by.

The third is what happened in the lower reaches of the Yellow River.

The fourth one is in the big desert in Xiyu County.

All three are related to water systems, and the last one is at the other extreme.

After seeing these things, Wen Yan knew why she gave it to him.

Most people are really not capable of handling water-related matters. Even with the cooperation of a Taoist priest who has been granted the talisman of the Goddess of Dispelling Evil, there are still many constraints in the water. Whether it is action, practice, or fighting, they are far inferior to those on the ground.

"Anything else?"

“That’s all for now. Except for the last one, the first three were all produced with the cooperation of high-level Taoist priests from the Tianshi Mansion.

You can put the matter of the Yellow River aside for now, but you must figure out the other things first.

As for the rest, I will find someone to do it.”

"All right."

Wen Yan knew at a glance that this meant that he wanted to go find Shui Jun first to ask about the situation.

Although Suicune has the temper of a dog, he would not beat a water god for no reason.

In Shuijun's opinion, bullying a little water god for no reason is absolutely a shameful thing to do.

Wen Yan wanted to ask something else, but he heard the director sigh.

"You spread the false news yourself, and then went to the Tianshi Mansion and beat up many people.

There are three people whose teeth you knock out.

And each person is as swollen as a pig's head.

People say you shouldn't hit people in the face, but you only hit them in the face.

You got so angry that you even hit someone.

Even when you, Fuyushan, were at your most insane, you would not have beaten all the qualified successors of Tianshi Mansion like this.

Now I'll find a way out for you and give you something else to do to help you finish.

how?

Do you still want to finish it yourself?"

"You can't say that I was wrong to beat you like that..." Wen Yan smiled awkwardly, didn't ask any questions, bowed and ran away.

Of course he knew that the director called him here not to tell him something nonsense, but he didn't let him investigate and instead assigned him other tasks.

After Wen Yan left, the director stretched out his fingers and rubbed his temples.

This familiar feeling is so kind to him.

Cai Heizi, this bastard, was the one who cleaned up the mess whenever he got into trouble or offended people in the past.

But later on, Cai Heizi's skills became more and more advanced. Under extreme circumstances, he jumped back and forth repeatedly, doing crazy things to commit suicide, but he always made people want to strangle him, but they could endure it and just spit in his face.

The director-general rarely cleans up the mess for Tsai’s haters anymore.

Now, Wen Yan has surpassed his master and his ability to cause trouble is much better than Cai Heizi.

Just as I was thinking about it, the black box prompted that there was another call from the Tianshi Mansion. This time it was directly using the dedicated line left by the old Tianshi. Should I answer it?

"Please answer it."

The call was connected, and the person on the other end of the line was the only Taoist priest.

"Hello, Taoist Priest, is there any unexpected emergency?"

"Director, I am sorry to bother you. This time I am disturbing you not because of any emergency.

There are some more urgent matters, and I want to explain them to the headmaster in particular."

"Master, please speak."

"It's like this, I heard that the director general transferred Wen Yan back to the headquarters with a transfer order, and I heard that the director general is still scolding Wen Yan.

The director may have some misunderstandings. Wen Yan did not come here as a disciple of Fuyu Mountain.

He had in his hand the Heavenly Master's Order bestowed by the old Heavenly Master himself. Even when punishing the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, he used the Heavenly Master's Order.

This is the rule of the Tianshi Mansion and has nothing to do with Wen Yan.

If Wen Yan was accused of assaulting the disciples of Tianshi Mansion, it would be too unfair.

Wen Yan even showed some mercy. When the master was invited, Wen Yan said nothing.

Wen Yan must not be punished for this matter."

The old Taoist priest was an honest man, and of course he knew that the news could not be hidden.

People who are close may know the inside story, know the importance of things, and be able to distinguish right from wrong.

However, the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion who were farther away had already started talking about Wen Yan.

This matter must be made clear as soon as possible, otherwise it would bring hatred to Wen Yan.

“…”

The director listened to the voice on the phone, opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say for a long time.

He said that the disciple is better than the master!

Look, after Cai Heizi finished his job, people didn't want to kill him, but they still wanted to beat him up. Spitting in his face was the least they could do.

Look at Wen Yan, he rushed to the Tianshi Mansion and beat someone up, and the people from the Tianshi Mansion even came to intercede...

Well, this doesn't count as pleading. What the other person said makes sense and has its reasons. Far from being wrong, it is actually the Tianshi Mansion that has to accept the favor.

If the only Taoist priest hadn't mentioned it, the general manager wouldn't have thought that there were people who would open an altar and perform rituals and ask for the details of the ancestor.

Wen Yan had done this before. He asked the master to personally eliminate his disciples in front of the master.

No matter how Wen Yan did it, he was really brave and he actually did it.

Speaking of which, this is really a huge favor.

Otherwise, if Wen Yan made a big fuss on the spot, no matter which ascended ancestor it was, when he heard that his disciple was trying to assassinate the current Heavenly Master for the position of Heavenly Master, the result would be that the disciple would be struck by lightning on the spot and killed alive.

When that time comes, we have to follow the normal procedures and talk about these things properly during the grand sacrifice, without missing a single detail.

The Taoist priest spoke for a long time but received no response, so he couldn't help but shout out.

"Headquarters Director?"

"Master, you are worrying too much. King Wen Yan... Wen Yan knows that the Tianshi Mansion is busy and someone must guard the Cloud Sea Cliff. He has taken over several of the tasks that the Taoists were supposed to do. He has already left.

As for other matters, if it is the old Heavenly Master's instruction, then I can't say anything more."

The director general pinched his nose and spoke well of Wen Yan.

The Taoist priests in the Tianshi Mansion should not care too much about this matter, but this does not mean that other people in the Tianshi Mansion do not care, nor does it mean that people outside the Tianshi Mansion do not care.

Especially the people from Fuyu Mountain, they have a history of being extremely arrogant.

Some people actually believe that the people of Fuyu Mountain are so crazy.

In the Tianshi Mansion, the only Taoist priest hung up the phone, saluted, and had a complicated expression.

“No wonder the old Heavenly Master mentioned Wen Yan many times before, repeatedly praised him, and even said in person that he owed Wen Yan a favor.

This time, we owe him another big favor.

Now, he has taken over the task that we had previously taken on.

The mission in the desert is easy, but he is the contemporary Lieyang, and taking on the mission of a lake and two rivers may be dangerous."

After listening to what the Taoist priest said, the Taoist priests nearby all sighed with complicated expressions.

"Let us guard the Cloud Sea Cliff first, and then deal with the matters inside the sect.

Now that such a scandal has occurred and cannot be concealed anymore, we will hold an internal meeting later.

We must make things clear and not allow anyone to take advantage of the situation and stir up trouble, causing those inside to resent Shang Wenyan."

“As it should be.”

On the other side, Wen Yan, who had escaped, asked about the situation in Decheng.

There's nothing wrong, the old master is still safe.

After he confirmed that there was no problem, he ran to Huaishui first, ready to talk to Shuijun first, and also looked at some relevant information on the way.

Wen Yan jumped into the river and sank all the way down until he came to the deadly quiet waters.

Suicune sat there with his eyes closed, his face as gloomy as water.

When he saw Wen Yan coming, Shui Jun didn't open his eyes, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Sui-kun, I'm going to run to your place and hide for a while, okay?"

"Hmm?" Shuijun raised his eyelids, somewhat surprised by Wen Yan's words.

"I just ran to the Tianshi Mansion and beat up all their candidate successors. The beatings were quite severe. I came here to hide."

"Hahaha..." Shui Jun burst into laughter when he heard this: "Yes, that's right. The people of you Fuyu Mountain are just like this. Tell me, how did they offend you? You can actually come down from Tianshi Mansion safely."

"Some of them tried to assassinate the old Heavenly Master, so I took the Heavenly Master's Order and beat them up. Of course, no one dared to stop me."

"Eh? What's wrong with someone? Dare to assassinate the contemporary Heavenly Master? What happened?"

Seeing that Shui Jun's attention was immediately attracted, Wen Yan took the opportunity to tell him about the old Taoist priest's experience of tribulation, his near-death experience after returning, and his assassination.

After listening to this, Shuijun couldn't help but ask.

"What's up with that cultivator of his? Did he succeed?"

"Yeah, it worked, it's just that my physical body is about to collapse. It's not a big problem now. I just need to deal with it. Someone took advantage of this to cause trouble. One of them was an idiot and got beaten up by Suicune. What's going on?"

Shui Jun curled his lips with a look of disdain.

"I'm just trying it out for someone else. What else can it be?"
