Chapter 374: Daojiang, Gathering Firewood
Ji Ming smiled, a humble smile that was in line with Xinghua Zhenren's ideal of a disciple.

At the side, Jiang Hongqiong glanced at Ji Ming suddenly, which made Ji Ming's smile stiffen a little.

"Jin Tong, the government will entrust you with an important task at this conference.

Even though you have just become a dragon and tiger and your foundation is a little insufficient, your master, the modern-day Master Taiping, has looked up your past practice in the Taoist scriptures and knows that you cannot be treated with common sense.

So this time you will be appointed as one of the Taiping Dao generals in this fight, commanding a battalion of old ghosts in the underworld ghost country at the foot of the mountain, and going to eliminate the most difficult and dangerous Panju important area in Liling.

There are seven other Taoist generals who have been appointed in the same way in Taiping Mountain. They are all the backbone of the mountain!

I really can't bear to see such a strong energy being poured out and tempered in such a dangerous war, but I have to agree with my senior brother's truth of "tempering gold with blood and fire." "

"Who are the other seven?"

Jiming asked.

"The one in Shangfu is Zhang Xiaoyuan, the one in Jiafeng is Luo Ji, Liu An, and Xu Yanzi, the one in Yifeng is Monk Jueguang and Mi Longque, and the one in Tianhe Peak is You Rongzi." said Xinghua Zhenren.

“Brother, among the soldiers from the lower altar, the ghost soldiers who have been refined by offering food are very different. There are many tricks involved.”

Linshui Jun reminded in front of Xinghua Zhenren.

Xinghua Zhenren stroked his beard and shook his head, saying: "The troops of the old camp have already been divided. You don't have to worry about this matter. It won't make much difference. You should worry more about how to lead the old camp and how to eliminate the target in Liling."

"Which target?"

Jimin asked, frowning.

“In general, before attacking Panku Mountain, there are several key places to destroy, such as the important Dafang and Ghost Market, the mountains and rivers used to raise the source of elixir spirits, the large mines for refining weapons, and several large villages that create “new blood” for Panku, etc.

Jintong, your target is two large villages in Lingnan, a place to produce elixirs, and a mine.

These targets that need to be attacked and destroyed are all targets that the mountain has spent a great deal of money on, and a long time to figure out bit by bit. Every time one is eliminated, Panku Mountain will be weakened a little bit. "

“What about us?”

Jiang Hongqiong asked.

When Erjun heard Jiang Hongqiong's question, he listened carefully.

"You will be assigned to various Daojiangs and assigned by the upper government. Your actions will be supervised by the Daojiangs and the Yinpan of the Examination Bureau, and you will only be responsible to these two people."

"With this kind of distribution, the future depends on the generals. Our results will almost entirely depend on the general's practice, strategy, ability, connections, and other factors."

Jiang Hongqiong's eyes revealed a kind of spirituality, the spirituality of thinking, and Ji Ming sincerely admired such spirituality.

Xinghua Zhenren looked at Jiang Hongqiong, a person who enjoyed great prestige among the lower-class Taoists, and said, "The upper government must have considered how to match them. If you think you have outstanding Taoist skills, you can write a memorial and submit it to the upper government. You can be a traveling envoy and be interspersed in various places."

Seeing that Jiang Hongqiong was hesitant to speak, Xinghua Zhenren raised his hand and said, "Hongqiong, I know what you are going to say. In the future, you will be qualified to work in the "Closed-Eye Courtyard" of the upper mansion and participate in the formulation of the mountain's secret strategies.

But now it is too early for you to care about the profits of the lower-class Taoists in the war, the governance of the naturalized areas after the war, the spread of Taoism, and the practice of monk Panku after he brought his skills down the mountain.

The current conditions are far from being ready to solve these problems, at least after the Panku Mountain is leveled.”

Jiang Hongqiong looked solemn and said, "I understand that everything has to give way to war, but I have the responsibility to let the upper house hear some voices. Victory alone is not the magic weapon to solve the problem."

"Makes sense."

Ji Ming's eyes moved and he suddenly said.

"It's difficult to swing the sword outward, and it's even more difficult to swing the sword inward. Taiping Mountain is not only composed of three peaks and one prefecture, nor is it only composed of five Taoist branches. There are also disciples of the branches who have opened up the Taiping Dharma lineage. Most of them do not have a fixed source of elixir heads, nor do they have masters who appreciate them. They work hard every day in the village, relying on sweeping away evil spirits, saving the souls of the dead, and copying confessions for others to earn meager merits and money.

In addition, one also has to learn the rituals of offering sacrifices. Even the most effective ritual of summoning the Three Origins of Heavenly Venerables still costs dozens of coins.

Other things, such as offering sacrifices to the God of Southern Dipper, asking the God to use his magic to refine instruments and consecrate them, to fight magic and increase power, etc., the expenses are like water flowing.

These alone have been enough to overwhelm them, causing several disciples in remote areas to rebel every year, either joining side sects or converting to heterodox ways.

Why did Ji Ming say this? It was not because he agreed with Jiang Hongqiong, but because he agreed with Lord Lu Daojun of the Upper House. He knew that Daojun had a heart that was keen on innovation, so he planted a seed here to prove that he also had this heart, so as not to be classified as a stubborn conservative in the future.

The two gentlemen looked at each other, not knowing how the matter had turned from a battle of wits to something like this. They looked nervous and did not dare to speak carelessly.

Xinghua Zhenren chuckled a few times and said, "As I said before, first fight this war well. This is not a war that can be ended easily. Nanlao Divine Mountain will not sit idly by."

Having said that, the Immortal hurriedly left the hut.

The departure of the Immortal seemed to take away the atmosphere of the serious topic, and the atmosphere in the room became a little more relaxed.

"I didn't expect that Jin Tong, who is so high up, could actually sympathize with the sufferings of the lower-class cultivators." Jiang Hongqiong's beautiful big eyes flashed with an inexplicable look, and then said: "But are you so anxious to cut off your relationship with me?"

"coming!"

Ji Ming thought.

In the hut, the two gentlemen had long disappeared.

"It can be seen that Senior Sister Jiang is not an ordinary woman. She has great ambitions and is definitely not someone who is obsessed with love affairs. In this respect, we are on the same path."

Ji Ming said.

"wrong."

"wrong?"

Ji Ming was surprised.

"I don't have big ambitions. You just heard the real person say that I care about this and that problem, but it's just because I see too many little Xiu who are frustrated because of their difficult lives. We are actually in the same situation."

"You are the biological daughter of Xuantan Zhenren, a high-ranking Dragon and Tiger Master, and the disciple of Zhenhu Weng. You have all the Dharma, wealth, companions, and land. Will you be in the same situation as Xiao Xiu?"

Ji Ming obviously didn't believe it.

"We can all see the limits of cultivation. It's easy to see, but you don't, Luo Ji doesn't, and Zhang Xiaoyuan from the upper mansion doesn't, far from it. So I look at you with new eyes, because it's hard for us to notice what's below."

Ji Ming was speechless. He was talking to a thoughtful Kun Dao girl who would think about all the reasonable and unreasonable things in the world. Perhaps only Xuantan Zhenren could raise such a girl.

The more I practice, the more I find that there are many women like this. Embarking on the path of practice means breaking away from the shackles of feudal ethics, and their thoughts will be somewhat incompatible. The smart ones are like Su Su, and the stupid ones are like the senior sister Yu Luo Temple Master, who is cynical.

“That’s what makes it fun!”

Ji Ming thought to himself.

The next thing is the Taiping Conference. Ji Ming thinks he is ready and can calmly face this great change. After the conference, he needs to hold a small meeting in Heguan and bring Heguan and more people onto the chariot.

Cultivation is full of suffering, and one can only ascend through disasters. He needs firewood, a lot of firewood, to fight for him. The firewood that burns for him will thoroughly ignite his furnace and burn out a round, glowing golden elixir.
