Chapter 242: Sowing

In the end, the Daoming Sect was only integrated into various small sects in Xiling, and the original secret society was pushed out of the shadows little by little, put in front of everyone, and gradually gained the recognition of the Xiling Imperial Court in various ways. Although many people in Xiling are aware of the danger of a theocratic country and the various power games that will occur in this kind of change, because the reserve strength of the Daoming Sect has taken a lot of time and all aspects are very well prepared, in fact, this change is just a matter of time.

Outside of Xiling, the reason why the Daoming Sect was able to allow the Eagle Hall to quickly carry out intelligence work and establish a relatively large-scale and systematic intelligence system in other places outside of Xiling was because the various small secret societies that had tried to be scattered in various places still existed, and some of them were indeed the peripheral organizations of the Daoming Sect that were funded, supported, and guided by the Daoming Sect, while others were just "providing some convenience for those distant believers". However, there are dozens of sects and organizations that can be directly or indirectly controlled by the Dao Ming Sect and distributed throughout the entire Middle-earth Continent. These organizations are mainly distributed in Chunnan and Xiling, and only a few are in Dongping, Northern Liao, and Yunzhou. The reason for this situation may be the domestic atmosphere in Yunzhou, Beiliao and Dongping, and the mental state of the common people is really very different. At least the people of Dongping, although they are sometimes a little superstitious, rarely really need any spiritual sustenance to soothe their damaged hearts. Northern Liao and Yunzhou have their own unique places......

As the power of Wuchenzi, a line of national teachers, gradually became a huge power system with Daoming Sect as the core, the Chen Jia family, which had been in charge of money affairs, seemed to be becoming less and less important. After Chen Jia, although the host of each generation of the Chen family is not bad in this regard. But there has never been such a genius as Chen Jia who can be single-minded in the exchange of money and the transformation of various forms of wealth. The huge amount of property transferred back then will naturally be gradually consumed with the passage of time, especially to cope with the expenses of the generations of the imperial family, so that the dustless family that summons the soul of the dead country can carry out actions with plenty of money, which is really not something that ordinary people can do.

Those investments back then, on the one hand, were relatively dispersed, on the other. Later, the continuous dynastic wars and the political changes in various countries often involve some, even those big merchants who can survive the ups and downs and survive for hundreds of years to the present, those big businesses with huge profits in those years, now many of them are just surviving, without much profitability. During this period, although there are several hosts of the Chen family who want to use investment methods flexibly, it seems more difficult to accurately grasp business opportunities in this era of underdeveloped information. If it's just a matter of financial management, it's fine. At most, it is just to make the people of the Imperial Family, Miao and Wuchenzi, who are not told their actual identities unless necessary, criticize. As long as the Chen family still has a need to exist in this situation where the three parties of the imperial family, the Chen family, and the Wuchenzi support each other, then the Chen family can continue to play their role.

However, from a few decades ago, Daoming Sect gradually gained a firm foothold in the Xiling Imperial Court, and has actually enjoyed the status of Xiling State Religion. The necessity of the Chen family seems less stark. It is true that the operation of both the Imperial Family and the Daoming Sect and so on requires a large amount of money, but the Daoming Sect has become a trend and has countless fanatical loyalties. One could even say that it was a desperate believer. Those who have no relatives often end up donating their entire wealth to the Daoming Sect, and many of them are billionaires. Even those properties that are of little value to an individual, when they are included in the Daoming Sect and are linked to other properties, can sometimes play a greater role than simple money. For example, many of the anchorages of Daoming Sect's Eagle Hall outside of Xiling used to be the houses of some boring rich families, and even bought houses by chance for various incredible reasons. Like what. One of the wealthy families has a hobby of collecting the famous haunted houses.

The financial management and economic system management of the Dominion Sect would be a joke if it was put in front of Tan Weixin. Because for Tan Weixin, that way is inefficient, the loss is too great, the benefits are extremely meager, there is a lack of visible good prospects, and there is no clear financial goal...... Even if it is in front of Chen Kai. He knew that the system was terrible. But for the Chen family. After the economy of the Daoming Sect no longer relied on the mechanism of mutual restraint between the three parties that had been running until now, the Chen family was constantly coerced, oppressed, and despised. If this contempt only comes from the Daoming Sect. Maybe the Chen family won't be good. But this contempt now also comes from the Miao descendants of the imperial family who have become surnamed Sun. Gradually, the influence of the Chen family became lower and lower, and a few years ago, when a huge controversy broke out about whether Chen Jia was a loyal and capable minister or a traitor because of some detailed historical research, the Chen family would be ridiculed almost every time the three families met, which was unbearable.

In the end, the Chen family was still framed by the current Pope of Daoming Sect, the head of the Wuchenzi generation, Xuan Ru, who wanted to kick out the Chen family, whose reputation was already stinking and whose use value was almost equal to nothing, and cut the Chen family to the roots. The Miao descendant of the imperial family, the current patriarch of the hermit Sun family, actually acquiesced to Xuanru's behavior and did not say a word. And when the Chen family was forced into a corner step by step, the Chen family finally burst out again with all their strength to protect themselves.

Chen Kai's grandfather summoned all the direct descendants of the Chen family at this time and took out the Tibetan Long box. The Tibetan Long Box has always been believed to have suffered a military disaster in the imperial capital as early as that year, and it was lost when everyone fled in a hurry, and its whereabouts are unknown. What I didn't expect was that in fact, the Zanglong box had been hidden in the hands of the Chen family, and it had been passed down from generation to generation by the patriarchs of the Chen family.

The Zanglong box contained not anything from the era of the fall of the Tang Dynasty, but two maps. One of the maps leads to a place that stores all kinds of important documents that Chen Jia rescued from the imperial secret archives before the fall of the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, there are various important documents that have gradually accumulated in the various affairs of the Chen family, the hermit Sun family and the Wuchenzi family. There are all kinds of contracts, countless minutes of meetings, all kinds of personnel and financial arrangements of all eras, all kinds of lists, and that is almost the entire map of the power hidden in the shadows. Although the Chen family has been for Daoming Sect in recent years. In particular, I don't know a lot about the arrangements since the economic **, but just the various materials accumulated before, especially the dark lines that I don't know how much money and energy have been placed in quite important positions, and it is very likely that they will not be activated, so that these materials are important enough to determine life and death for the Daoming Sect and the entire three former dynasties that buried themselves.

The other map is a treasure map. This treasure map was left by Yang Yin to the descendants who had the opportunity to restore the country in the future to do great things, because Chen Jia also got a treasure map like this back then, he never seriously deciphered the information on the treasure map. There is no idea what exactly is hidden in the treasure and how much wealth is hidden. But imagining the enormous responsibility that this treasure could have to bear, the value should be quite staggering. The Chen family was instructed to preserve this treasure map and use it when they had the opportunity to restore the country in the future. On the one hand, although the economy is tight, at least it is not embarrassed enough to move the treasure when it is not back to the country, and in addition. It is also because in fact, the Chen family lacks people who are proficient in mechanism technology, and they do not have enough manpower and material resources to use human lives to pave the various mechanisms in the treasure there, and it is completely impossible for them to take out the treasure without the other two parties knowing.

The old patriarch gave Chen Kai and Chen Kaidi's uncle Chen Jin the hidden box and the key, and asked them to leave the place where they were living in seclusion. Run to a place where the power of the Daoming Sect and the Hidden Sun Family can't reach. Basically, the land that Patriarch Chen pointed to should be Dongping, Yunzhou and even Northern Liao, where Daoming Sect is regarded as a heresy and spares no effort to crack down. And then. Accumulate strength and look for opportunities to raise treasures, at least the Chen family can still exist in this world as a low-key rich family. As for those important documents, they should be able to be presented at some point and handed over to a certain country that has the opportunity to unify Middle-earth, so as to obtain a talisman for the Chen family.

Chen Kai and Chen Jin didn't believe that the situation had reached this point of urgency at the time, but when they were packing up. Daoming Sect came to the door. Many guards of the Chen family desperately protected Chen Kai to leave, but the old patriarch Chen. Chen Jin and the others all died in a fire, which was the same long-planned strategy of the old patriarch Chen.

Xuan Ru only learned that there was such a thing when the old patriarch Chen summoned the Chen family's disciples. For Xuanru and his brothers, those documents were to be destroyed, but that huge fortune had to be pocketed. But it seems that it is getting harder and harder to do both. Chen Kai escaped with the Zanglong Box, but Chen Jin, who held the key, died. Tsai searched the entire fire site carefully, but did find the key. But the key has been burned out. It almost melted into a lump. Not only is it impossible to use, but there is no hope of even reproducing it through research keys.

Perhaps it was because of the frustration of the destruction of the key. made Xuanru look particularly heartbroken in the last step of this extermination of the Chen family. After several unsuccessful attempts to intercept Chen Kai and let Chen Kai escape into Chunnan, Xuanru not only did not stop, but instead ordered the Eagle Hall to enter Chunnan to continue the pursuit. Subsequently, he also successively activated a number of dark lines that had been lurking in the southern part of the Spring Sect, especially those gangs in the rivers and lakes that had considerable manpower and connections in their hands, and cooperated with the Eagle Hall to "take all necessary measures". Xuanru was bound to win the Zanglong box, and he activated these dark lines, adding up to no less than 2,000 people to search for Chen Kai. They fully knew that such a big move would never be concealed from the Chunnan official mansion, but on the one hand, Daomingzong's arrangement in the official mansion had also been initiated, trying to delay the time for the Chunnan official to intervene, and these Jianghu forces had to ensure that before Chunnan sent a large army to suppress it, they would seize Chen Kai and get the Zanglong box. Do whatever it takes!

Xuanru understands very well that as long as he can get the Zanglong Box, the price paid is completely worth it.

Chen Kai originally wanted to escape to the north. But being intercepted several times made him dispel the idea of entering Dongping or Yunzhou, so he turned south and entered Chunnan. What he didn't expect was that he didn't go to Yunzhou, but the envoy of Yunzhou appeared in front of him. This cannot but be said to be the sowing of the hand of fate.
