Due to the impact of the epidemic, the conference was postponed for about a week.

Monks from all over China gathered at the Baiyun Hotel next to the Baiyun Temple, and men, women and children in "fancy costumes" could be seen everywhere in the venue.

If the entire hotel hadn't been chartered, ordinary people would have thought that there was a comic book or masquerade party here.

After registering and checking at the front desk, the three of Xuanwei and apprentices followed the guidance of the road sign to a hall.

The layout of the hall is a bit like a staircase conference hall, and there are already a lot of people sitting scattered at the moment.

"Our seats are, uh, over there!" Tomorrow Night looked at the numbered plate in his hand for a long time before finding the place for the three of them.

Xuan Wei was holding a green bamboo in his hand, these days, his body has finally adjusted a lot smoother, even if it still can't be compared with the past, at least not as weak as some time ago.

It's just that he's blind, and he can't use spiritual detection, so Xuanwei can't adapt to it in a short time, and sometimes it's quite inconvenient.

"Master, disciple will help you over!" Qinglian stepped forward very diligently and hugged Xuanwei, looking afraid that Xuanwei would bump into it.

Xuanwei did not refuse, it is rare for a disciple to have this heart, so why should he be strong?

Besides, with Xuanwei's current state, if there were no two disciples to guide the way, it would be strange if he could touch his position.

The seats assigned to the Heaven and Earth Temple are at the very end of the hall, and in this society where seniority, seniority, and strength are discussed, monks are also not exempt from vulgarity.

Not to mention that this Taoist meeting is ostensibly in the name of exchange and learning, but in fact, it is an arena for monks from all walks of life to compete for Taoism!

Now they are all harmonious and happy, and when the discussion meeting officially begins, they may be red-faced, and they can't wait to trample on the other party's remarks and rub them under their feet.

"Master, is the battle for Taoism really that important?" asked Ming Ye in a sudden low voice.

Don't look at Ming Ye's young age, his mind is quite transparent, and he doesn't understand the doorway behind this Taoist meeting.

"As the saying goes, 'if the name is not right, the word is not good', everyone wants to determine their orthodox status. Just like in the era of war and separation, the forces with the right name can ascend to the top and label other forces as anti-thieves and heretics. Xuanwei gave an example.

It's very superficial and straightforward, but it's true everywhere.

"But 'the Tao is different, not the same as the other', each family is talking to itself, can it really argue about any substantive results?" asked Ming Ye continued.

I have had the experience of debating, or everyone who has quarreled has that kind of mentality, regardless of whether they are right or wrong, first of all, they must not be cowardly.

What you say makes a lot of sense, so what's the matter, I just don't listen, what can you do with me?

Xuan smiled and said slowly: "Without two or three brushes, going up to talk about the Tao will only bring humiliation on yourself! Three thousand avenues, the stones of other mountains, you can attack jade, if you want to convince others, the best way is to quote other people's doctrines!"

To put it simply, the sharpest means of arguing is to find the flaws in the opponent's theory, and use the spear of the son to attack the shield of the son.

"Tomorrow night, there is one thing you must remember! Cultivators, once their ideas and thoughts are shaken by others, even if the dead duck has a hard mouth, it will still be a loss, and it will be worse than admitting defeat frankly!"

Ming Ye nodded and replied respectfully, "Disciple remember, master!"

……

After a short time, the hall was already crowded and full.

According to the general meeting routine, the bigwigs and celebrities in the front row came to the stage one after another to say two sentences.

Of course, the so-called "two sentences" are not really just two sentences.

Fortunately, the monks in the audience were quite enthusiastic, and almost no one yawned or played with their mobile phones as far as the eye could see, which showed that the monks' patience and recuperation were much stronger than ordinary people.

Master Yuanzheng of Fahong Temple, Master Huiqing of Lanting Jingzhai, Daoist Danfeng of Zixuanguan, and Father Mark from an unknown church......

A series of front-row bigwigs took turns to get on and off the stage, and more than an hour passed, as the organizer of the Taoist meeting, Yuxu Taoist, the head of the Taoist Association, took the stage in the finale.

The audience applauded thunderously, and I don't know if it was because of the high morality of Yuxu Dao people, or because the opening speech was about to end.

"Supreme Heavenly Venerable, Poor Dao Yuxu, all Daoist friends are well! Thank you for gathering here thousands of miles away to participate in our grand event!

Behind the Jade Void Daoist, there was a blank banner hanging, and I saw the Jade Void Daoist raise two fingers together, dancing towards the void dragon and phoenix, and one by one cinnabar-colored vigorous books jumped on the paper.

"On New Development in the New Era!" said out word by word tomorrow night.

At the same time, there were voices of surprise from the audience, and many elderly monks were full of astonishment.

Obviously, this theme was unexpected by the vast majority of monks!

In fact, it is not surprising to the monks that, as has been the practice in the past few years, the main theme of the Seminary is mostly around a certain scripture or a certain issue in spiritual practice.

The theme written on the banner in front of me is undoubtedly very fresh, closely connected with reality, and closely related to everyone here.

"Master, is this to discuss how the various sects and factions in the new era should change and find a suitable way out?" asked secretly tomorrow night.

"The teacher thinks that the answer to this topic can be divided into three levels, from small to large, they are individuals, sects, and the entire circle of monks, and all three are indispensable. Xuan thought for a moment before he spoke.

It was only then that Xuan Wei understood why when he proposed the Six Treatises of Daomen in the CDC before, Yuxu Daoist would say that this remark should be left for the Daoist meeting.

It turned out to be the six treatises of Xuanwei, and it happened to hit the theme of this discourse!

Although it does not completely fit the topic, there is no difference in general, and with only a slight modification of some details, it can be directly spoken.

"This theme was decided a few months ago after discussion between Poor Dao and a few fellow Daoists, and no one else knew about it except for a few people from Poor Dao. Now you have half an hour to think, and then you can come to the stage to share your opinions. The Jade Void Daoist continued.

The implication is that this exam paper is from a few of our bigwigs, and with our character, we will never leak the question, and you candidates can rest assured that you will compete fairly.

As soon as Yuxu Daoren's words fell, someone in the audience suddenly stood up and shouted: "Why do you need half an hour, I have already made up my mind now!"

The crowd followed the prestige, and saw the man dressed in black and holding a Bible.
