Heaven and earth are changing, chaos is rampant Chapter 9, discuss the recruitment of immortals

Changye view of the head of the hall.

Taiyi and Xuanyuan sat in the middle position, and the heads of each sect sat on either side.

Xuanyuan looked at everyone, and first clasped his fists and saluted everyone: "Thank you for coming to Changye today to discuss the recruitment of immortals." ”

The head of Maoshan: "Don't be polite to Xuanyuan Shangxian, we received instructions from Yuhuai Zhenren, and we should cooperate with Shangxian, this is all within our bounds." ”

Emei in charge: "Yes, Shangxian, we cultivators are originally cultivators, and the immortal Tao is inseparable, and the affairs of the heavenly court are naturally our affairs." ”

A young head sits among a group of older heads, and the young head is also dressed in filial piety clothes. Xuanyuan looked over and felt puzzled, and the young head also felt Xuanyuan's doubts.

"I have seen Xuanyuan Shangxian below, I am Qi Fan, the head of Kunlun, my master died of illness last month, and I was also ordered to be the head of Kunlun." The young boss looks magnificent, but he always gives people a sense of obscenity, and he can't tell where he is obscene.

Xuanyuan glanced at Qi Fan, and always felt that there was something wrong with this person, but he didn't know where the problem was. At the moment, he still started to recruit immortals, nodded at Qi Fan and began to preside over the meeting.

"The Emperor of Heaven ordered my master to be responsible for recruiting immortals, and due to the tight time and heavy task, Yuhuai Zhenren decided to assist my master in completing this task together. In order to live up to the teacher's order and complete this task, we need to work together and cooperate with all parties in the future. Xuanyuan stopped and looked at the crowd.

Qi Fan: "What the Immortal said is that we must do our best. ”

The rest of the crowd nodded in agreement.

Xuanyuan: "Although the time is tight, we can't be careless because of this, we still have to strictly implement the exam, treat every link rigorously, and ensure that the selected talents are real materials. ”

"Xuanyuan Shangxian," the head of Maoshan hesitated for a few seconds, "Is it really just a few tests?" After the exam, the top ranked will go directly to heaven to be a fairy? After speaking, he still felt a little inappropriate, and added: "I don't mean anything else, I just think it will be too simple, after all, after so many years, there are only a handful of people who have cultivated to become immortals, and the difficulty of cultivating immortals and becoming immortals can be seen, but now it is just a few simple exams to become immortals, and the heavenly court, which has never lacked immortals, is now doing so as if there is no one in the heavenly court, I feel that there is a big hidden secret." ”

The others also nodded in agreement, they also had such questions, but whatever the gods say, they do it, how dare anyone ask!

The head of Emei added: "Yes, Shangxian, many people under the mountain have this confusion, as far as the whole country is concerned, the number of applicants is not a few, but when they calm down, they will have this doubt, why is the heavenly court suddenly recruiting immortals?" How many years have passed, how many immortal cultivators have been unable to become immortals after more than a hundred years of searching, but now they are recruiting immortals from the world? What exactly is the reason? We want to know, and so do people all over the world. ”

Everyone chimed in: "Yes, yes, why?" ”

Hyun Won pondered, he didn't know how to answer the question. Because before coming to the mortal world, he also asked the same question to the Mixed Yuan Tianzun, but the Mixed Yuan Tianzun did not answer him, and only asked him to do it.

Of course, he had considered why, there must be a reason why the master didn't want him to know, and he didn't want to ask too much, and he couldn't speculate wildly. But the problem is, he didn't think about how to answer the mortal why?

Everyone stared at Xuan Yuan intently, waiting for him to explain the reason.

Xuanyuan tried to stay calm: "You can go and ask Yuhuai Zhenren, and he will give you the answer." ”

Everyone looked at each other, why are you here for us to ask Yuhuai Zhenren?

Qi Fan: "Shangxian, can't you tell us?" ”

Xuanyuan looked at him, a little annoyed, but it was not easy to have a seizure, it seems that they will not give up if they don't say a reason, Shuoyang Day is coming soon, and it can't be delayed any longer, but what reason should I make up to make them believe?

"Actually, it's very simple," Xuan Yuan looked at everyone's expectant eyes, "Because the Heavenly Emperor has seen a lot of human suffering, and feels that mortals are very tired and bitter, some of them should be allowed to go to Heaven to be immortals, live a happy life, experience the feeling of being an immortal, and experience a life without suffering." ”

Disbelief was written all over everyone's faces.

Xuanyuan was a little embarrassed, he didn't know, what could I do?

The head of Maoshan: "I see! ”

But everyone present can see that the head of Maoshan himself doesn't believe it, he said this just because he didn't want Xuanyuan to be too embarrassed, and he also thought of the reason why Xuanyuan might not be able to say something.

But no one else thought of it.

"Then why don't you recruit immortals directly from immortal cultivators, aren't immortal cultivators stronger than ordinary people?"

"Yes, why is it still stipulated that cultivators can't sign up?"

"Didn't the Bitter Heaven Emperor of the Cultivators see it?"

"yes, why?"

"Why haven't you seen it for so many years, but now you suddenly see it?"

"Is there something unspeakable?"

"Is there something big going on in Heavenly Court?"

Everyone raised their own questions, and Xuan Yuan was very big.

Ruoshui saw that Xuanyuan was embarrassed and couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward from behind. When everyone saw Ruoshui coming, they all got up and saluted, and Ruoshui raised his hand to signal that everyone didn't need to be polite.

Walked to the front and stood still, "Actually, my brother and I are both confused like everyone else, and we also want to know the answer to the question. ”

The crowd is in a commotion, and you don't know what you do, and you don't know the reason for what you do.

"Everyone be quiet and listen to me," Ruoshui continued, "When Senior Brother and I were ordered to come to the world, we also asked Master Chaoyuan Tianzun the same question, but Master told us not to ask more, just do it, how can we break the casserole and ask to the end." ”

"My sister is right, but there is a reason why I just deceived everyone. Because - in fact, I feel that the reason behind this matter is not simple, if everyone is obsessed with the truth of the matter, I am afraid it will backfire and cause some unnecessary trouble. So I hope that everyone will just do it and follow the teacher's orders, and I believe that one day we will know why, but for now we will do what we have at hand first. We will always know that in order to prevent the people of the world from continuing to speculate, please inform the people of the world as I just said, and stabilize the hearts of the people of the world. Hyun Won explained to everyone sincerely.

Ruoshui: "Yes, we are all acting on orders, ask what should be asked, and don't ask what shouldn't be asked." We'll know what we should know, won't we? ”

Everyone nodded thoughtfully.

Xuan Yuan watched everyone calm down, straightened his thoughts, and continued the meeting.

Xuanyuan: "This time to recruit immortals, I followed the instructions of my master Mixed Yuan Tianzun and decided to take the exam in the following aspects. First, the literary examination, through which the literary literacy and cultural accomplishment of the candidates are mainly examined, as well as their understanding of some famous works and whether they have their own unique opinions, and the most important thing is to test their perceptual ability and ability to look at things dialectically. Because I think this is the basic skill of a person who has attained the Dao, if you don't have such a basic skill, becoming an immortal is also a general, and if there are people in Heavenly Court who can't even do this, it will damage the face of Heavenly Court. ”

Everyone nodded in understanding.

Xuanyuan took a sip of tea: "These exam requirements are all said in the announcement of recruiting immortals, I think everyone has seen them, and I have also seen that many places have set up corresponding schools according to the requirements of the exam, specifically for our exam," Xuanyuan smiled helplessly, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt to let everyone study more, but you can't let everyone learn for the exam, and if you don't take the exam, you won't learn." When learning is purposeful, then it is inevitable to rush to achieve results, and everything you learn is knowing what it is but not knowing why. Therefore, this essay exam must find famous Confucian scholars in related fields to write questions and mark papers, so as to avoid letting some people who are rigid and inflexible, and who memorize and study for the sake of the exam pass. ”

"Yes, it is necessary to select real people with ideas and opinions." Ruoshui smiled and nodded at everyone.

The heads also felt that it was very reasonable and nodded one after another. He also glanced at Xuanyuan, but he didn't expect him to think of so much.

"Then you can recommend a few people to make the questions and mark the papers." Xuan Yuan looked at everyone.

The head of Maoshan: "Shouldn't it be your heavenly court who makes the question?" ”

Xuan Yuan smiled, "After all, it is an exam for mortals, I think it is still up to mortals to make the questions, mortals know mortals better, so it is more fair and reasonable." ”

The head of Maoshan: "I see, it makes sense," nodded and looked at everyone, "I always thought that it was your Heavenly Court that made the questions, and you read the papers by yourself, but I didn't expect these tasks to be handed over to us mortals to do by ourselves." Are you reassured? ”

Xuan Yuan smiled, "I believe that you will definitely uphold the principle of fairness, justice and openness." ”

Emei head: "I recommend Taiyi, the knowledge of the head of Taimei, no one will object, right?" ”

Everyone else nodded their heads.

"Okay, then the boss counts one, and I recommend another one." Xuanyuan picked up the teacup and drank tea.

Taiyi: "I recommend one, this person's field of study is completely different from mine, my life's learning is only Taoism, I Ching, Legalism, Moism...... These, and he has studied through the past and the present, and has read a wide range of books, and the breadth of fields involved is impressive. He is a great thinker of Confucianism today, proficient in Laozi and the Analects; A military strategist, using soldiers like a god; He is a literary scholar who has written more than 100 books, and the most famous "Xu's Treatise on the Country" is written by him. ”

Everyone knows who it is.

The head of Maoshan: "The person who the head of the Tai Sect said is not Mr. Xu Huaiyuan Xu?" ”

Taiyi: "That's the person."

Maoshan master: "But I heard that this person is arrogant and arrogant, and it is difficult to see each other, how can I let him solve the problem?" ”

Taiyi: "Don't forget, Mr. Xu Huaiyuan is the prime minister today, I will go to the capital after the meeting to meet the saint, and the saint will let him go, can he not go?" ”
