Chapter 70 I'll give him a reason he can't refuse! Difficulties? Just a little bit of trouble!
After hearing what Liu Quan said, Jiajing fell silent.
Based on his understanding of the three heroic Han brothers, this is indeed the case. Among the many high-level officials of the Daming Immortal Sect, the division of labor among them is very clear.
The head of the sect, Dugu Ying, has the strongest cultivation and is a great monk in the Golden Core Stage.
His role is to deter with force, and at the same time it is enough to ensure that he remains strong.
As for the left and right protectors, neither of them is good at thinking. One is responsible for the defense of the sect, and the other is responsible for sorting out and maintaining the spiritual veins.
It can be said that these three brothers are the hard support of the entire sect.
The second elder, Song Xinchai, was originally the steward of the Black Wind Village and is now responsible for the supply of cultivation resources for the entire sect.
The third elder Liu Yuan had seen some of the world before joining the Daming Immortal Sect, but his personality meant that he was not suitable for these jobs.
As a result, the management and general development direction of the sect fell on the head of Liu Quan, the former military advisor and now the chief elder.
Before, there were copycats, disputes over territory, and fights, all of which were minor incidents, and they were all developing in the gray area outside the rules. Liu Quan was still able to control them.
But now that the Daming Immortal Sect is on the right track and registered with the academy, it naturally has to abide by the rules of the academy.
Some actions within the scope of the rules can be said to be restricted. To put it bluntly, the previous set of rules is no longer feasible.
The world of immortal cultivation on Arcturus is governed by Confucian academies, which set their own rules. Immortal sects develop and operate according to the patriarchal system.
Of course, this patriarchal system is very different from the patriarchal system in history.
These were specially compared during the Ming Dynasty by Emperor Jiajing.
One of the rules of the clan system here is that the three generations of leaders of a newly-emerged clan are not allowed to conquer or annex each other.
This would put an end to the meaningless life-and-death struggles between each other, which would be equivalent to putting shackles on the world of cultivation where strength is respected and the weak are preyed upon by the strong.
This shackle can be regarded as the law.
Of course, there are ways to play within the rules.
For example, mutual annexation and attack are not allowed. This is actually a broad concept. Generally speaking, it means that fighting for the purpose of annexation is not allowed, and how to judge it is also very complicated.
If there are large-scale conflicts and bloodshed between sects in a certain area, the academy will conduct a thorough investigation and determine the punishment.
When the scale of the conflict reaches a certain level, it can be completely regarded as an attempt to annex and destroy the clan.
And if the fight is not for the purpose of annexing the other party, the tricks and explanations involved will naturally be more numerous and complicated.
For example, benign sect competitions or small-scale conflicts all have their own criteria for judgment.
These complicated and ever-changing rules and regulations are generally impossible for ordinary monks to deal with.
Most of the time they are well-behaved and practice diligently. However, if some people want to kill people and steal treasures and go astray, if they are discovered, they will either be executed or flee to the ends of the earth.
Compared with the mortal world like the Ming Dynasty, under the laws of the dynasty, if you commit a crime, the whole world belongs to the king, and sooner or later you will be caught, and then those who deserve to be killed will be killed, and those who deserve to be sentenced will be sentenced.
In the world of cultivating immortals, there are many more changes and possibilities.
If your cultivation is so strong that you can kill a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal in an instant with a wave of your hand, or if you can kill a bunch of Nine Tribulations Loose Immortals, then naturally no one would dare to say anything to you. Naturally, you would be free and easy, and even the academy would have to retreat if you said that.
Of course, if you want to reach this level, you must have the ability to kill a bunch of Nine Tribulations Loose Immortals with a wave of your hand. Yes, it must be a bunch, not just one or two.
And how many are there in this pile? How many academies are there in Arcturus? As far as Jiajing knows, the cultivation world of Arcturus is not just one star, but a group of stars, to put it bluntly, it is a constellation. In the entire Qinglong star field, in addition to Arcturus, there is also Dakang Star, which is also a constellation and is also under the rule of Confucianism. How many are there?
Therefore, challenging the rules of the academy is equivalent to challenging the entire Confucianism, so no one can question or challenge Confucianism!
Under Confucian rules, any living being can only obey and learn to adapt to the environment, rather than resist.
However, these are comfort zones for Jiajing.
From a macro perspective, Confucianism in this world of immortal cultivation is a variant and can be completely regarded as a "dynasty."
Ordinary monks (common people), sects (gentry families, local forces, personal organizations) want to challenge the rules (laws)?
It is equivalent to challenging the entire Confucianism (dynasty).
"Sir, have you thought of any other solution?" Liu Quan's voice brought Jiajing back to his senses and suppressed his thoughts.
"Have you ever talked to Huang Fenggu?" Jiajing asked slowly.
"Talk?" Liu Quan smacked his lips and said, "Sir, you don't know, during this war of development, because of Old Liu, many of us who were already at odds with the Huangfeng Valley..." As he spoke, Liu Quan raised his hand and made a gesture to his throat.
"Many of the Qi training stage disciples of Yellow Wind Valley have died."
"At the end of the pioneering war, when we were fighting for our current land, the leader slapped that old guy twice in public. Hehe, his face was swollen from the slaps."
“Do you think we can still talk to the Yellow Wind Valley?” Liu Quan said, spreading his hands helplessly, “If I had known it would be like this, I should have left some room for improvement…”
"No problem," Jiajing said, picking up the teacup and taking a sip. At the same time, he stood up and said, "You go to Huangfeng Valley in person and give Huang..." As he spoke, Liu Quan reminded him, "Huang Feng."
"Well," Jiajing turned around and looked at Liu Quan, "Send a letter to Master Huang Feng, inviting him to Sifang City for a chat. You have to decide the location."
"Sir, is there really something to talk about?" Liu Quan followed Jiajing to the stairs and went downstairs with him. He was still a little unsure and said:
"This old man Huang Feng has a bad temper and speaks dirty words. He started the bandit business earlier than us, and he is very pure. Unlike us, we are very particular about what we say and do..."
"I'm just afraid that he will bully you because you're a scholar. You won't be able to explain yourself even if you're right, and you'll suffer for nothing..."
"Oh," Jiajing walked down the stairs slowly, his tone submissive, "There is nothing in this world that cannot be discussed. There will always be a key to open both doors."
"The key is whether both parties are willing to take out the key and talk to each other openly and honestly."
"I'll give him an offer he can't refuse."
Looking at Jiajing's indifferent back and listening to these words that made him feel as safe as drinking sweet spring wine, the haze that had been in Liu Quan's heart for several days seemed to dissipate all at once.
A problem that seems to him to have no solution at the moment is not a big deal in the eyes of Mr.
It's like a piece of dust on the couch that can be wiped away easily.
This back view is like the majestic back view of my father in my memory, tall enough to hold up the sky!
For a moment, Liu Quan unconsciously felt a sense of relief as if he had put down a heavy burden and handed over problems that were beyond his ability to someone more capable.
I'll just run errands, no matter how big the task is, let the tall guy take care of it. Yes, sir, you're the tall guy.
A heavy burden? Is that heavy?
For Jiajing, another world, all the nine provinces and regions, are on his shoulders, and his problems are world-class.
For now, these are just some minor things.
