Pawn Crossing the River

Manager Cui said with a headache: "The key is how to make him calm down. Using force will definitely not work."

"One is that he has been in the Jade Palace recently. We can't break in directly, and assassination is nonsense. This kid himself has the cultivation level of a celestial being. Of course, a celestial being in the infinite stage can kill him, but it must be In a normal fight, if we fight in the heavily guarded Jade Palace, as long as this kid delays for a moment, the heavenly beings from the Taoist sect will arrive, and it won't work. The heavenly beings in the creation stage can do it, but the key is that we can't invite them. Experts at this level have always been commanded by others, so it is not our role to command them."

"Secondly, this kid is very shady. He deliberately left the Jade Palace last time. It seemed like a perfect opportunity, but it was actually to lure a snake out of its cave. The whereabouts of the four heavenly beings are still unknown. I don't know whether it was the Imperial Palace or Quanzhen. Tao has other plans. In short, it is very likely that there are experts secretly protecting this kid, and Yao Pei's treatment is nothing more than this. "

Wen Weng did not deny Master Cui's statement, and said: "I have studied the whole incident, and I found something very interesting. Master Qi is very thoughtful and likes to use the law to make articles. He doesn’t recognize this in his heart, so we can do the same.”

Chief Cui perked up and said, "I'd like to hear the details."

Wen Weng said unhurriedly: "The so-called fighting without breaking is a game of fighting under an established rule framework to strive for greater power and interests. Therefore, people often use the metaphor of playing chess. There are indeed many similarities between the two. In this kind of game, you can of course go beyond the limits of the law, but you must be careful and cover up in every possible way, just like if you want to steal a chess piece, you must not be discovered by your opponent. The battle between the three Taoist sects is at this stage, so there is the first Jiangnan major case and the second Jiangnan major case, but no matter how they fight, the Taoist sect will still be in power and will not become a Buddhist or a Confucian sect. The dispute between Taoism and Buddhism and the dispute between Taoism and Confucianism are two completely different concepts.”

"In this case, of course you can kill people, but you can't kill people openly. You have to add a relatively reasonable shield to the killing behavior. So the last time we took action, we first invited the assassins from the 'Inn', and then used this as an opportunity Get involved and fish in troubled waters.”

"It's just that your arrangement was too rough. Not only did Qi Xuansu see through it at a glance, but he also used the "Da Xuan Law" to turn an army against you. At this point, you have already lost one move. You should stop in time to stop the loss. But there is no one. Shen was once again taken advantage of by someone using the "Image Stone", so he had no choice but to jump over the wall and go all the way to the dark side. But he had already planned it and was waiting for you. As a result, he made one wrong step and every step, and was led by others. If the nose goes away, everything will be lost in the end.”

"It's like you tried to steal the chess pieces, but were caught. This time, we can't play such tricks again. We must retaliate within the rules."

Master Cui was not a martial artist, but he was a martial artist. He listened to Wen Weng talk for a long time and felt that Wen Weng seemed to have said a lot, but seemed to have said nothing. When he mentioned Du Yuyan's matter again, he became impatient and angry again: "I think it's better. The money is too little. If he doesn't want 20,000 yuan, I don't believe it will stun him." "Let's discuss the matter, don't be angry!" Wen Weng said calmly, "Not to mention Qi Xuansu's worth. It's not worth so much money. Even if he is really worth this price, Qi Xuansu won't take it if we really have so much Taiping money. This is not a question of more money or less, but a choice between future and Taiping money. Question, do you know what the word "not a wealthy man" means? To put it bluntly, it means settling for the next best thing. If there is a choice, no one will choose a rich man. He has a bright future. Wait for him. When he reaches the high position of Jinque, Taiping money is just a number, so he will definitely be tempted, but he will definitely not take risks. "

Manager Cui looked at Wen Weng closely: "Wen Weng is talking eloquently. I guess he has a plan, so it's better not to show off."

Wen Weng chuckled: "There is no perfect person in this world. People will have flaws. Even if you reach the position of knowing the real person, it is still the same, let alone a little Taoist priest of the fourth grade wine sacrifice? "

Manager Cui thought for a while: "I have also read about this person's resume, and there are indeed many things that cannot withstand scrutiny. For example, after the airship crashed, he disappeared for a long time, and his whereabouts were a mystery. It was later explained that he was He was rescued by Master Donghua, and under the orders of Ziweitang, he faked his death to hide his identity, and secretly visited and investigated. I must say that there must be something fishy in this, but all the key information was in the hands of Master Donghua. It’s sealed, even the Deputy Palace Master can’t retrieve it.”

"Also, in the case of Yue Liuli, Wan Xiuwu died, Yue Liuli was imprisoned, and both of them had conflicts with Qi Xuansu. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? If we really dig deeper, Qi Xuansu can also be Have a drink. But this case was handled by Wanshou Chongyang Palace. Zhang Yuelu, the headmaster of Tiangang Hall, did not hesitate to use his personal connections. Pei Xiaolou, Donghua’s brother, took charge of the case and assisted Xu Xiaoying, who made the case a success. Unless the Earth Master orders a thorough investigation, no one can overturn the case. With the relationship between Qi Xuansu and Donghua Zhenren, how can the Earth Master order an overturn? Isn’t this just shooting oneself in the foot? "

"I couldn't figure it out before, but I just heard Weng Weng say that he has a background relationship with the Yao family, the Pei family, and the Zhang family. There's nothing I can't figure out. This is because someone from above is protecting him. No matter how big a mistake he makes, it's not a mistake. Especially for something like this that has no real evidence and is ambiguous, isn’t it the same thing as the above sentence? Of course he is not afraid of anyone coming to check him.”

Wen Weng took another sip of wine: "What Master Cui said is right. I have already asked Beichen Hall. The people from Taiping Dao want to investigate him, and Beichen Hall has also collected some evidence. But he also holds some Taiping Dao people in his hands. No one on either side dares to act rashly."

"Then you still say it." Manager Cui also started drinking.

Wen Weng said: "We are not afraid of the people of Taiping Dao who use rat weapons as a weapon. We can first get the evidence collected by Beichen Hall to solve our urgent need."

Chief Cui was not a fool, he was just startled, and then he came to his senses: "This move may not kill him, but it can indeed make him calm for a period of time. Even if he cannot be killed, it is also a good countermeasure. It is best to It would be easier to transfer him back to Yujing than to kill him."

Wen Weng said: "That's right, but I can't come forward in this matter. After all, I'm just the chief historian of the palace. I'm only responsible for the affairs of the palace. I have to trouble you about what to do specifically."

Manager Cui hesitated for a long time, then nodded and said: "Of course it is not appropriate for Wen Weng to come forward. It is best for someone from Daolu Division to come forward. Anyway, since we have offended him, we are not afraid of offending him to the end."

Wen Weng smiled slightly. He had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. If the difficulty is not made clear, Director Cui will not agree easily.

Director Cui asked: "Has Wen Weng already obtained the evidence from Beichen Hall?"

Wen Weng Fusu said: "I have spent a lot of effort on this matter these days. It seems to be a coincidence. The key witness happens to be in the Imperial Capital, otherwise it would have been delayed for a few more days."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the Buddha's name: "Infinite Buddha."

The private room here has a special formation to prevent others from prying into it. Naturally, no one else can enter. This person has obviously been in the private room for a long time.

Manager Cui's expression changed slightly, but seeing that Weng Weng was still there, he could not hold back.

I saw a monk come out from behind the screen. He was a few years younger than Qi Xuansu. His eyebrows were just above his crown, and he was a little green. He was wearing a monk's robe, no cassock, and he had shaved off three thousand hair. Worried Silk put his hands together and saluted: "The young monk, whose name is Yanxiu, came from Jingchan Temple. Now, under the orders of the master, he goes down the mountain to practice in the world."

Buddhist seniority: Enlightenment of the origin of light and nature, understanding of the origin and development of enlightenment.

Because Buddhism was a vassal of Taoism for a long time, the seniority levels of Buddhism and Taoism are roughly equal. However, Buddhism imitates Taoism in every aspect, but not in any way. The seniority is integrated, but it is not as strict as the Taoist sect in limiting the number of years. Many old Buddhist monks often accept closed disciples, or accept disciples on behalf of teachers, resulting in confusion in the seniority.

Therefore, calculated one by one, this young monk is only one generation lower than the three deputy head masters, and the same generation as the seven generations of disciples. Eight generations of disciples such as Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu were one generation below him.

Master Cui knew this. He knew the young monk had a good background as soon as he heard the seniority. He stood up solemnly and said: "It turns out to be Zen Master Yanxiu. I have admired him for a long time."

Influenced by Taoism, Buddhism is also divided into nine grades and twelve levels internally.

The beggar monk corresponds to the wine-sacrifice Taoist priest, the confusion-breaking monk corresponds to the secluded Taoist priest, the pure-holding monk corresponds to the Taiyi Taoist priest, and the terrifying demon monk corresponds to the innocent Taoist priest. In terms of titles, Zen Master corresponds to Dharma Master, Superior Master corresponds to High Gong Dharma Master, Virtuous Scholar corresponds to Zhenren, Great Virtue corresponds to Zhenzhen Zhenren, and Great Master corresponds to Great Zhenren.

At Yanxiu's age, it is unlikely that he is a third-grade monk who breaks the confusion. He should be a fourth-grade beggar monk. Therefore, Chief Cui calls him "Zen Master". He knows in his heart that the evidence Weng Weng said probably lies in this Yanxiu. On the Zen Master.

Yanxiu put his hands together and saluted, "I don't dare to take it seriously."

Wen Weng called the two of them to sit down, and then said: "Speaking of which, this Zen Master Yanxiu once had a relationship with our Qi Master Qi Xuansu at the Yulan Temple in Yishan City."

Monk Yanxiu smiled and said: "It's just not a good karma, it's a bad karma."

Wen Weng chuckled and said: "The bad relationship between Qi Xuansu and the Zen Master has fulfilled the good relationship between us and the Zen Master. It is his poison that is my honey."
