Chapter 225: Tongbei Temple and Luohan Temple
After seeing Du Jing's agreement, Liu Huanqi put his mind at ease, no matter what, he still has a few days to grasp, and he has to take down this spirit stone tax!
"In that case, let's disperse our banquet tonight, and it's not too early......
Before Liu Huanqi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Du Jing: "Liu Xiancheng, we haven't finished talking just now, why have you forgotten?"
"What, what?" he pretended.
Du Jing once again mentioned the spirit stone tax, only to hear him say: "It is the matter of the spirit stone tax, as long as it is all included in the unified management of our Taiping County, each registered monk can not only receive the spirit stone on time every month, but also evaluate a family or sect for maintaining public order and stability every year, and the selected sect family can get 10,000 spirit stones." ”
The condition proposed by Du Jing had already made everyone's hearts flutter just now, and now that they said it again, those who were still hesitating were even more excited.
Some of the heads of the families who did not mine the spirit stone vein this year couldn't help but sigh: "This condition, if the spirit stone vein is in my hands, then I will definitely hand it over! Mining by myself is not only time-consuming and laborious, but sometimes I have to fight with other sects to protect the ore vein, and the loss of a few children at that time is not something that some spirit stones can make up." ”
The words of the heads of these sects hit everyone's hearts directly, in fact, mining is not a good errand.
But those who held the spirit stone vein were still entangled, he was afraid that Du Jing would just deceive them and make fun of them, once he got the spirit stone vein back, as for his promises, all of them would be in vain.
After a while, Liu Huanqi laughed dryly twice: "Du Zhutou, look at it, everyone is supporting you! But we are here from a small sect, even if a few of them have mining rights this year, they can't mine much, if you want it, we will naturally hand it over to you."
It's just that there are two sects in our Taiping County, one is called Luohan Temple and the other is called Tongbei Temple, and the monks in these two sects are called one powerful, and they occupy the two largest mines in our Taiping County.
Liu Huanqi's words immediately won the approval of those sects that still hold the right to mine mining, no matter what these people do, they always have to pull one or two cushions, and it is naturally impossible to let them come out.
Luohan Temple?
The names of these two sects are the second time Du Jing has heard them today, and the first time he heard them was when the banquet had just begun, and the entire sect families in Taiping County came, only the abbots of the Luohan Temple and the Tongbei Temple did not come.
But this is also understandable, after all, it is the old bustard of Yichun Building who is asked to inform him, and it is normal for an old bustard not to notify the monk.
Du Jing still has a good impression of the profession of monks, and he always feels that these monks will not occupy the spiritual stone mine or the vein and refuse to hand it over.
"What does Liu Xiancheng mean is that as long as these two sects hand over the spirit stone vein, everyone is also willing to hand over the spirit stone vein?" Du Jing asked.
At this time, everyone nodded in agreement: "That's right, as long as those monks agree to hand over the spirit stone vein, we will naturally give the spirit stone vein with both hands!"
Looking at the attitudes of these people, Du Jing was a little suspicious of the character of these monks.
Could it be that these monks are really some evil monks?
After the dismissal, on the way back, Du Jing asked Bai Siwei, who was on the same road, "What is the situation of these two monk temples they are talking about?"
Bai Siwei told Du Jing about the history and said: "This Luohan Temple and Tongbei Temple are on the same mountain, and they were the same temple a long time ago, and they were one of the famous temples thousands of years ago. Later, the monks of the Luohan Temple specialized in martial arts, and the monks of the Tongbei Temple specialized in Zen practice, which gradually split. ”
Du Jing suddenly felt that it was the same as the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect of the Huashan Sect, but he didn't care about these.
"I don't care if he was one or two five hundred years ago, I asked about the ore veins!" Du Jing said.
This Bai Siwei smiled and said: "Actually, these two sects are very arrogant, Liu Huanqi never dared to ask these two temples to collect the spirit stone tax before, and now he pushes this matter on you, naturally I want you to touch this mold." ”
"Oh?" Du Jing couldn't help but be curious, what is so magical about these two temples that it can make a county and county not dare to find these two sects to collect the spirit stone tax, can it be said that these two sects are very powerful?
"You don't have to be surprised, there are some relatively large sects and families in every state and county that never pay taxes, this is a tradition that has been passed down from thousands of years ago!"
Du Jing nodded, and knew what it meant.
The millennium ago of this world was a feudal dynasty just like the ancient times of the previous life.
And some of the contradictions of the feudal dynasty also existed in this world thousands of years ago, such as land annexation.
The most serious land annexation was the temple and the gentry and landlords, because the monks and the people did not have to pay taxes, many peasants took the land to the gentry and monks, so that they only needed to hand over grain to these large landlords, and no longer had to be exploited by harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
And this custom has also been followed after the revival of the aura, and some places have collected some taxes by force, but those who have not been collected have absolute strength.
"Are they very strong?" Du Jing asked.
Bai Siwei shook his head and said: "It's not too strong, the cultivation of the abbot of Xinyuan in the Tongbei Temple in the later stage of Yangdan, and the abbot of the Luohan Temple in Siyuan is more powerful, but it is only the cultivation in the early stage of psychic." ”
Du Jing frowned, he thought that these two such powerful sects should also reach the cultivation of the gods, so that the local forces would not dare to touch them, but he didn't expect that the strongest was only the cultivation in the early stage of the psychic, and it was estimated that Han Zeyun would be able to clean them up alone.
It seemed that seeing Du Jing's expression gradually contempt, Bai Siwei smiled and said, "You look down on them? It seems that you have never heard such a sentence." ”
"What are you talking about?" Du Jing hurriedly asked.
"The world's martial arts are out of Arhats, and the Zen heart can shatter the void!"
Du Jing's heart was shocked when he said this, he really didn't expect that these two sects that didn't attend the banquet tonight would be so powerful!
The meaning of the world's martial arts is that all the martial arts in the world are basically born from the various martial arts of the Luohan Temple.
And the Zen heart can break the void, which is also another allusion, that is, the martial god of the martial arts family once had a Zen discussion with an old monk before breaking the void, and then this shattered the void became a god in one fell swoop, it seems that this old monk should be the monk of Tongbei Temple.
Seeing Du Jing's incredible expression, after Bai Siwei finished explaining, he laughed softly: "What, scared?"
