Chapter 138: The aftermath is still unsettled

The entire southern part of Zhanchuan is immersed in the pouring rain at this time, the north wind is howling, the west wind is shaking, and the chaotic and muddy swamp is blown everywhere by the ** fallen leaves and stumps that have been dormant for a winter, coupled with the dense rain and fog, the visibility is only thirty or forty steps.

It was under such circumstances that Jiang Feng and Jiang Chengzi descended from the sky into the swamp. Because of the strong wind, the two had to sacrifice spiritual power to protect their bodies, so that they could lighten some of their burden.

Jiang Feng quickly moved through the swamp, looking for the target in his heart. After more than half an hour, he finally stopped at a black stone tablet.

Asa Mountain-Heishui, No. 15, Autumn and October of Tianyuan 3548

This is a boundary monument erected by the Ashala Sect and the Black Water Gate in the early years, this unique material of black stone, although it is not any precious cultivation material, but it can naturally prevent moss and the like from overgrowing, so it is quite neat and tidy.

"Release Song Weiduo. ”

"Master, what are you going to do?" Although Jiang Chengzi was puzzled, he still quickly released the demon puppet Song Weiduo.

"Let him pull out the boundary monument and come with me. Jiang Feng raised his eyes and looked around, discerning the direction in the heavy rain.

Song Weiduo had brute strength, and under the command of Jiang Chengzi, it didn't take much effort to pull the No. 15 boundary monument out of the quagmire of the swamp, and the silt near the left, mixed with the accumulated rainwater, quickly filled this shallow deep pit, as if this was a natural small quagmire.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Feng had already found the right direction, swept rapidly in the direction of the Black Water Gate, and traveled fifteen miles to the south, and when he saw a village in the distance, he ordered Song Weiduo to dig a pit again and bury the No. 15 boundary monument as before. The wind and rain soon covered the freshly turned dirt and there was no trace of excavation.

Concocted in accordance with the law.

Jiang Feng moved the seven boundary monuments near Zhanchuan Town to the south, the farthest was thirty-five miles deeper, and the nearest was only five miles, although all the places he passed were swamps, but in the future, these areas might be able to become fertile fields after the poisonous spring swamp was drained. You must know that in the south of Zhanchuan Town, especially in the southwest, although there are also many territories belonging to the Shallow Mountain Sect, they are all barren mountains and bald mountains, with few spiritual vein minerals, and even barren land that cannot be cultivated.

"Master, 'Turbidity Abyss' is in the Ashalagia Sect this time, and it will be much more convenient for me to come in the future. Jiang Chengzi sensed the burial place of his biological mother Xuanhuo Crow, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, when the trip to the canyon is over, call your second junior brother, and the third junior brother will come to worship together. ”

"Yes. ”

"Walk, late will change. Although the torrential rain continued, the dark clouds in the sky had become much lighter and thinner, and Jiang Feng and Jiang Chengzi once again drove the flying boat and flew towards the north.

This can be regarded as a small advantage, Jiang Feng's originally unbalanced heart was only then comforted. The sudden change in Heishuimen made it impossible for him to take this opportunity to harvest anything from his large treasury or library pavilion, but this time the boundary monument was moved to the equivalent of a quarter of the area of a market town, and compared to Guhan Town, the flat land here may be able to play a greater value in the future.

I don't know who will be in charge of taking over this mess, Jincheng faction, Wei State? He thinks that most of it will be Wei State, after all, everyone knows that Qiu Bai Temple is just guarding this swamp land where resources are scarce for the Shangzong of Wei State.

The death of Qiu Bai Temple led to the instant collapse of Heishuimen, the main reason was the lack of legal heirs, because the land was small and poor, Qiu Bai Temple did not even have a general elder, so when he suddenly changed, there was not even a monk who came out to preside over the overall situation.

Although Qiu Zhenzhen is the younger sister of Qiu Baisi, he is only a monk of the Xuan level, and he has not been able to preside over the overall situation, judging from the fact that he was seriously injured in the big library, he has no prestige in the Black Water Gate; Spiritual-level monks, like those who only want to quickly get some soft and escape, instead of getting together and actively discussing countermeasures.

Fortunately, although the Asa Mountain Sect is poor, there are still a few elders in the sect. However, Jiang Feng suddenly remembered that he was going to enter the canyon ruins soon, and it seemed that he was also a fierce and unlucky line.

If he dies, what will happen to the Asama sect?

The probability of large-scale chaos is not high, maybe a few elders and other Xuan-level monks will discuss the future leader of the sect together, but small-scale chaos will most likely occur locally.

Unless, like the previous head of the house, I appoint a candidate for the head before leaving.

Do you want to designate one in advance?

The question is who to choose?

He suddenly thought about the question, only to find himself at an impasse.

It stands to reason that according to the traditional rules of the Qianshan Sect, it is necessary to set up a monk who has not participated in the ritual of the spirit of the black snake, so Wang Xiandao, Zheng Luda and Wu Quanzhong will have no chance at all, although they can not take the road of "Lichu", but "Zen Rang".

Zhao Wenjun, Wei Jie, Zhou Xing, and other monks who were not related to their ancestors could not bear the ritual of the spirit of the black snake, even if they were "Zen Rang", their prestige was not enough. Therefore, most of them have to be selected from the original family or the disciples of the Wang, Zheng, and Wu families.

Pick from the top eight?

Then only Wang Yanzhi, who ranks second, Zheng Yiyu, who ranks third, Wu Tiande, who ranks fourth, and Ren Xiaolong, who ranks fifth, can be selected.

This is a good idea, maybe it works legally, and it can barely convince everyone, but I always feel that with the existing resources of the sect - of course, it is much better than when I succeeded to the head of the sect - I may not be able to get a good result, and most of it will only be exchanged for an ordinary Xuan-level monk, and at that time, the pattern within the sect will return to the embarrassment when I first took over as the head of the sect.

It stands to reason that he does not have any advantage in terms of appearance, seniority, or even the perspective of the main and branch lines. Jiang Feng suddenly realized that he had been in charge for nearly three years, and he had never thought about this problem.

became the head of the house in such a daze, and it's a shame to think about it.

Thinking of this, he was a little unable to let go, the headwind Ruyi Flying Boat had just passed through the rain belt in the southeast of the Shallow Mountain Sect, far away in the sky, the morning light was half dewed, Jiang Feng thought for a moment, adjusted the direction and flew to Luochuan.

............

"Qiu Baisi is dead?"

Su Liqing looked at the emergency report delivered in front of him late at night, and his mood could not be calm for a long time, and he wandered in the main hall for a while before his mind calmed down.

Heishuimen is a small sect, sandwiched between the Jincheng faction, the Li Sect, the Wei State and the small Qianshan Sect, it is a buffer zone that has existed for many years, its original Songhu Sect, the anointed land was divided by several neighbors, leaving only the barren and barbaric poisonous spring swamp, these years, relying on the support of the Great Wei State, barely surviving until now, basically relying on the ground-level monk Qiu Baisi alone.

Most of the Wei state will send troops.

This was Su Liqing's first thought, however, they couldn't be allowed to take advantage of it, if they were directly bordering the Jincheng faction, the danger of their own Jincheng faction would increase a lot compared to before.

"It's not as good as this. ”

The second daughter Su Man and the youngest daughter Su Jier both came overnight to help their father Su Liqing discuss the matter, although Su Liqing hoped that the third daughter Su Jin could also participate in the details, but he was still dealing with a matter in Shuanglong City that originally required his own personal participation, and he couldn't come in time.

The Jincheng faction was not the only prefecture-level monk in Su Liqing, but most of them were marginalized, and they were only responsible for guarding Shuanglong City, the former capital of Lingyun Mountain in the east, and Lelin City, an important town in the north, and rarely participated in the decision-making of the sect.

Marginalizing several prefecture-level monks was a choice that Su Liqing had to make. Among the six daughters, only the second daughter Su Man reached the sixth level of the Xuan level, even if he shared some secrets of the Dan Theory with her, he failed to let her seize the opportunity to be promoted, so he had to prepare more for his own posthumous affairs, and even for the sake of balance, the six daughters did not marry any of the monks in the sect, so as to avoid outsiders deliberately standing in line with their son-in-law and affecting the core interests of their family.

It seems that the heir issue should be considered, and the change of the Black Water Gate has made the hidden worries that have been suppressed in his heart rise to the surface again.

"That Xuan-level Zhu Tianshi, isn't he here to defect to us, let him immediately return to the hometown of Heishuimen, collect the remnants of the forces, and wait for the Wei State to receive it. We just need to secretly support him as the head of the house, so as to ensure that we still do not have a border with Wei. ”

"Will the Wei State directly occupy this place this time?" Su Man was slightly worried about Su Ji'er's suggestion.

"No, they are still at war with the 'Yefan Kingdom' in the west, and there are not many high-ranking monks left in the south of Heishuimen, even if there are, judging from the situation of the Wei State Fortress being in their own hands, most of them want to waste time on this projectile land, and besides, this is just a worthless poisonous spring swamp. Su Ji'er said with certainty, "But we can't do nothing, in this way, the eastern dust and mud town is occupied, and with the war on the western front, it is inconvenient for Wei to turn around with us for the time being, and most of them will still find a puppet to be our neighbor." ”

"Well, according to Jill. Su Liqing looked at the map, the dust and mud town is not big, but he can show an attitude first. "I'll send someone to do this immediately, and there's one more thing, what do you think about the ruins of the Raging Wind Canyon, should I go there myself?"

"Father, this must not be done. Su Ji'er immediately said, "Although there may be a good opportunity, but my father, as the head of the family, can't take risks personally, once I ......" She paused, "I mean that once something happens, the foundation of our Su family will probably fall into the hands of outsiders, isn't the change in Heishuimen today a clear proof?"

"What then?

Su Liqing has long been accustomed to several daughters consulting the affairs of the sect with him, sometimes, but he loses his mind and lacks some opinions, and the more critical problem is that this matter is faintly related to the heir issue, involving the interests of several daughters, the topic is very sensitive, he has to be cautious to express his opinion, from the perspective of relative cultivation, the second daughter Su Man is the most suitable candidate, but although the younger daughter Su Jier is ordinary, the strategy is the first, and the other four daughters are in between.

"Let the Zuo Zicicada of Shuanglong City, or the Leng Tingtao of Lelin City. Su Man suggested, "Secretly let out the wind, if you can bring back the opportunity or important treasures in the valley to the sect, marry the fourth sister to him." ”

"How can it be?" the second daughter Su Man argued, "Your fourth sister likes Leng Tingfeng, not Leng Tingtao, and Zuo Zician already has two wives and concubines." ”

"Leng Tingfeng has only just reached the Xuan level, and the law is very poor, I am afraid that I will not have a chance with the ground level in this life. The Xuan-level quota can be allowed to go, it is best to have no return, which also breaks the thoughts of the fourth sister, the six of us sisters, we must consider the sect and the Su family as soon as possible, marry someone who has the ability to maintain the sect, and decide the marriage by ourselves. ”

"Sixth sister, if you do this, your fourth sister is afraid ......"

"I'm afraid of what, that cold listener, at first glance, is a liar, and coaxed my fourth sister to turn around, if it weren't for the fourth sister begging you to help him find a few earth-based spiritual materials, he wouldn't even be able to touch the edge of the Xuan level. ”

Su Man was silent, his face was flushed and he had a fever, although he did it secretly, he still let the little sister know about this matter, and he didn't know if his father would blame him.

"Alright. ”

Su Liqing knew that he needed to stand up and make some mud, "This matter is a long-term consideration, but the Leng family has risen too fast recently, so it needs to be paid attention to, so let Leng Tingtao go to the canyon." As for Leng Tingfeng, he sent him to blackwater gate in disguise to lurk, and secretly helped Zhu Tianshi do something, so as to see how much he had. ”

This is exile.

Su Man sighed helplessly in her heart, even a little depressed, feeling a little tired, and didn't know if the fourth sister Su Ya would be sad, but fortunately she didn't have anyone she liked, she straightened her hair that was not messy, and in an instant, it seemed that a little bit of beauty had passed quietly.

............

When Jiang Feng returned to Luochuan, he locked himself in the inner mansion of the head of the family, and carefully checked the various records left by the heads of the previous dynasties, especially the heads of the nine generations.

Maybe he had ignored something before, he believed that although the Taoist was gone, the inside story of his successor to the head of the family would not leave no clues.

I want to talk about "Ten Generations of Leaders" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
