Chapter 174: Taoism in action
And just when Zhang Shang wanted to know how many tricks the two could play, he didn't know that Lin Lingsu and others were also worried about this problem at this time.
Since Lin Lingsu's return, the three sects of Fu Seal have finally reached a series of agreements after a long period of discussion and research, as well as many exchanges of interests.
One of the most important is that the three sects were officially united to establish the Zhengyi Church, with Lin Lingsu as the first leader. The Three Sects will mobilize all their forces to help Lin Lingsu collect the Faith Condensation Incense Karma, and Lin Lingsu will need to lead the disciples of the Three Sects into the Divine Dao after his cultivation is successful.
It's a win-win deal and a condition they can't refuse.
It's just that although the conditions have been negotiated, the question of how to do it has become a problem. According to Lin Lingsu, there are nine layers of incense Shinto.
One of the first steps is for the practitioner to condense the power of incense and wish to achieve his or her own Shinto karma.
This step is an important metamorphosis from man to god, and it is also the beginning of the foundation of Shinto, which is not unimportant.
It is precisely because this first step is so important that the three sects dare not despise it more and more, for fear that there will be a little problem. After all, only Lin Lingsu understands the method of the Incense Fire Divine Dao, if something goes wrong with him, the three sects can only be blinded, and there is no hope of rising.
Longhu Mountain, Zhangfu.
Lin Lingsu and the three sects of Fu Seal sat together, arguing with each other, which seemed to be very lively.
An old man with white hair and a ruddy face shook his head and said, "This plan is not good. According to the poor Dao's opinion, now we should cut through the mess quickly, first help Brother Lin Dao achieve the incense industry and then talk about others. ”
This person is the contemporary head of Maoshan Liu Qingfeng.
Zhang Tianshi retorted: "Master Liu's words are inappropriate, if we make such a big move at the beginning, it will inevitably cause the snooping and backlash of the Great Song Dynasty, and it will be even more troublesome at that time." Although Brother Lin Dao has broken through the realm of supernatural powers, don't forget that one is also a supernatural powerhouse. ”
"Don't quarrel, don't quarrel." A middle-aged man with an elegant face clenched his fists and smiled to stop the two who wanted to continue arguing. He is Zhang Shicheng, the head of the current Lingbao faction, and one of the three sects of Fu Seal.
Zhang Shicheng saw that the two of them sat back again calmly, and then said slowly: "Now that the Quanzhen Sect is powerful, although our Fu Seal Three Sects have an advantage in the south, they no longer have a foothold in the north.
Previously, the head of Liu proposed that he wanted to gather the strength of my three sects to hold a grand water and land conference in Jinling to help the Taoist brothers condense the incense industry. From the point of view of poverty, it is quite desirable. After all, there are many dreams at night, and if we continue to procrastinate, the Quanzhen Sect may not necessarily give us more time. ”
When several people heard this, Master Liu looked at Zhang Shicheng with a smile on his face and appreciation. Zhang Tianshi's face was slightly sad, obviously still a little reluctant to agree.
Zhang Shicheng continued: "But although this plan is good, it is not unreasonable for Zhang Tianshi to be worried. Of course, we can hold a water and land festival in Jinling, but it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the Great Song Dynasty, and there may even be unnecessary trouble.
If we annoy the imperial court because of this, it is still a trivial matter for us to be condemned, but if we delay the major affairs of the Zhengyi Sect, we will really die and will not be able to atone for our sins. And the lessons of many predecessors of Daomen, we can't forget it. ”
Master Liu thought that Zhang Shicheng wanted to agree to his proposal, but he didn't expect him to agree with Zhang Tianshi's idea, so he couldn't help frowning, and said dissatisfiedly: "Zhang Daoyou, what do you mean by this inconsistency." ”
Zhang Shicheng listened to Master Liu's complaints, and couldn't help laughing: "Brother Liu Dao's temper is still so hot. The two of you haven't figured it out yet, how to decide this matter is not up to you and me, but to Brother Lin Dao and the current official family. ”
Several people were slightly stunned when they heard this, and quickly understood.
This matter is very important to the three sects of Fu Seal, not even more important to Lin Lingsu, after all, he is the party concerned. No matter how hot the discussion is, it will be decided by Lin Lingsu in the end.
Master Liu looked a little embarrassed, and he was speechless for a while.
Seeing this, Lin Lingsu smiled and said: "Zhang Daochang's words are wrong, we are all righteous people now, and this matter is naturally a righteous thing." ”
His short sentence instantly broke the awkward and dull atmosphere in the room, and made Master Liu's face a little better.
Master Liu was silent for a few seconds, looked at Lin Lingsu seriously, and couldn't help but complain a little: "Sect Master, this matter is related to the future of my Zhengyi Sect, and it is also about your achievement of the Immortal Divine Dao, you must pay attention to it after all." Otherwise, there is no point in us discussing it like this. ”
Zhang Shicheng followed closely and said: "Sect Master, what Master Liu said is very true, we can't delay this matter any longer." ”
Zhang Tianshi didn't speak, but his expression was obviously biased towards Master Liu.
They had been discussing for three days how to proceed with the collection of incense, and most of the considerations had already been taken into account. There are pros and cons to every plan, and so does every location. In the end, how to implement it still needs Lin Lingsu to come up with an idea.
They can't wait to let the Zhengyi Sect come into existence in order to resist the erosion of the Quanzhen Sect.
Since the immortal gods came to the world more than half a year ago, the Quanzhen Sect has already increased its power in just half a year. Originally, although the three sects of Fu Seal could not compete with the Quanzhen Sect in the north, they were quite influential.
But now, the three sects of Fu Seal have no influence in the north, and even the old nest in the south has been infiltrated by the forces of the Quanzhen Sect.
If we continue to wait, the situation will only become more and more unfavorable for the three cases.
Lin Lingsu was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "The issues and plans you have discussed in the past few days have been carefully considered. First of all, Jinling is located at the junction of the north and the south, and although it is not the most powerful place for our Zhengyi Sect now, it is an important place where it is easiest to expand its influence and resist the southern invasion of the Quanzhen Sect.
Secondly, it is convenient to hold water and land pujas, which can maximize the influence of Orthodoxy. However, just as Zhang Tianshi worried, if we are unscrupulous, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the officials. ”
Several people frowned and fell silent.
Even if it is the head of Liu, he also understands that it is definitely not a good thing to arouse the vigilance of the Great Song Dynasty now, which is definitely not a good thing for the newly established Zhengyi Sect.
Lin Lingsu's eyes widened, and there was a little more smile on his face, and he said, "However, this matter is not without a solution. We can completely inform the officials in advance and hold this grand festival in the name of celebrating the descendation of the Heavenly Court Ancient Divine Land. As for the future....."
Lin Lingsu said this and didn't continue, but a few people didn't understand the meaning.
As long as the initial situation can be opened, with the deep influence of the three sects in the south, as well as the arrangement of the water and land puja, they will definitely become famous.
At that time, even if the official family notices that something is wrong, there is nothing to be done!
Several people pondered for a moment, and they also felt that there was no better plan than this. As for telling Zhao Ji the truth, everyone didn't think about it.
Who doesn't know that today's official family is obsessed with the art of immortality, and it has reached the point of almost madness. If he knew that Lin Lingsu had obtained the method of immortality, how could he give up?
At that time, I am afraid that not to mention the support for the unity of the three sects to establish the Zhengyi Sect, as well as the holding of waterway pujas to condense incense, may not even give the three sects a chance to continue to exist.
The most important thing is, if the Quanzhen Sect gets the news, how can it give up?
So in the eyes of several people, this move will certainly harm Zhao Ji, but it is the best way.
