Chapter 65: The Merger of the Two Factions The General Assembly is on the first day
(The third watch, caught up, begged for tickets)
Bai Yuchan said that he was born in Guangzong Shaoxi for five years, and now it is Lizong Jiaxi for three years, according to time, Bai Yuchan's actual age now should be in his forties, but his appearance looks like only thirty people, obviously he has achieved success in practice and has the ability to stay in appearance.
However, from Qiu Chuji to Yin Zhiping, the five people were not surprised by this. When the internal skills are practiced to a high depth, there is already the effect of rejuvenating the face. Qiu Chuji and their seven sons practiced Quanzhen Internal Strength back then, and from the age of thirty to fifty, their appearance actually did not change much, they did not show any old age, they all had dark hair and ruddy complexion. It wasn't until he was fifty years old that he couldn't resist the invasion of time and began to grow old.
After Bai Yuchan briefly described his life, he replied to a few questions from Qiu Chuji, Hao Datong, and Sun Buer, and after talking a few words with the three of them, he said the important things he wanted to discuss here.
It turned out that Bai Yuchan came here to propose the merger of the Tiantai faction into the Quanzhen Sect. Since the teachings of the two sects are the same, and the cultivation methods are also similar, and Wang Chongyang had a relationship with Xue Daoguang back then, there is a foundation for merging into one and developing even more.
Today, the influence of Quanzhen Christianity in the south is still quite small. With the exception of Sichuan, there was little progress in preaching. The south is the world of the Zhengyi Fu faction, and it is the scope of its traditional sectarian power, and it is also quite resistant to the southern transmission of the Quanzhen Sect. And people don't really stir up trouble, they just use some soft knives, so it's not easy for the Quanzhen Sect to open the way by force with open swords and guns.
Although the power of the Tiantai faction in the south is not large, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and it is also quite influential. There are also several dojo temples under their jurisdiction. Especially when Bai Yuchan was in power with Ning Zong, he had presided over several national Jiao ceremonies. It is already quite influential in the southern Taoist circles, and everyone knows about it. The power of the Quanzhen Sect is mainly in the north. At this time, the north and south were under the control of the Southern Song Dynasty and the Mongols, which made the news on both sides even more incompatible. Therefore, a few people in Qiu Chuji had never heard of the name of Bai Yuchan.
This aspect is the advantage of the Tiantai faction, and its disadvantage is that there are too few disciples. From Zhang Ziyang to Bai Yuchan, the five generations are all in one lineage, and there is only one successor in one generation. Although Bai Yuchan has accepted a few disciples now, it is still too few, and it seems that it is weak, and these disciples have to be cultivated. It also takes time, so if you want to develop at this time, you need to rely on external forces.
There are thousands of disciples of the Quanzhen Sect, and there are countless Taoist temples in the northern branches, and the most important thing is manpower. This is the advantage of the Quanzhen Sect, but the disadvantage is that it is always difficult for the Quanzhen Church to open up the situation except for Sichuan, and it is not able to replicate the success of the north in the south. I can't get in all the time. And with the foundation of the Tiantai faction, this situation will be much easier to open.
The cooperation between the two parties, in the words of Yin Zhiping's previous life, is "double win".
This mutual leverage of the two parties to develop the advantages and benefits. As soon as Bai Yu Toad brought it up, Qiu Chuji and several people immediately thought of it. Almost none of them had the idea of rejection in their minds, and all they considered was the practical steps to carry out, the difficulties, and the status of the two sects after the merger.
With the influence of the Tiantai sect in the southern Taoist circles. This is by no means different from the Taoist temples that were attached to the Quanzhen Sect before it. Whether it is the influence of the Tiantai faction, or its status and inheritance. In terms of the identity of the various generations, the Quanzhen Sect cannot unilaterally annex the Tiantai Sect. If that's the case, then Bai Yuchan won't agree to it anyway. Therefore, the two sides should discuss together to find a suitable cooperation model.
When it comes to cooperation, this can be regarded as Yin Zhiping's specialty. In his previous life, when he was in the workplace, he also represented the company to discuss cooperation with other companies. What's more, in his previous life, he had already learned in detail about the history of the Quanzhen Sect, and he was already very clear about the plan and mode of cooperation between the two parties that would later merge. Although the merger of the Quanzhen Sect and the Tiantai Sect has been advanced by several decades because of his relationship, the foundation of the two sides is basically inconvenient, and they both have their own needs. He only needed to slightly modify the later plan to suit the current situation, and then he could come up with it.
Yin Zhiping immediately went through the history of the development of the Quanzhen Sect in detail in his mind that he had learned in his previous life, removed the inappropriate places in it, and then corrected them, and then confidently talked to Bai Yuchan and Qiu Chuji, and talked endlessly.
As soon as he came up with this plan, Bai Yuchan and Qiu Chuji were surprised and admired. Of course, to exclude Zhao Zhijing, although Zhao Zhijing didn't show anything on the surface, the more he listened to it in his heart, the more jealous he became.
After Yin Zhiping finished speaking, after merging this set into a major sect, but dividing the north and the south, and inheriting each other, Bai Yuchan and Qiu Chuji, Hao Datong, and Sun Buer were all impressed.
The four of them had no objection to this plan, and the next step was to discuss some details of this plan. A few people talked about it, they haven't listened since breakfast, and even at noon, Guo Jing sent someone to invite Qiu Chuji and a few people to the banquet, but Qiu Chuji also politely refused to refuse, and asked Zhuang Ding, who invited people, to send a message to Guo Jing to send them lunch.
Guo Jing didn't know what was going on, and when he heard the legend that Zhuang Ding came back, he said that Qiu Zhenren couldn't refuse, and thought that there was something accidentally offended, which made Qiu Chuji angry, and came over to invite him in person. When he came over, he realized that it was not what he thought, but that Qiu Chuji and a few people were discussing important matters.
introduced Guo Jing and Bai Yuchan to know each other, and after the two said a few words, Qiu Chuji pulled Bai Yuchan to discuss again. Guo Jing saw that they really had something important to talk about, so he didn't bother anymore, saluted and said goodbye, and then ordered someone to bring them lunch.
Qiu Chuji, Yin Zhiping and Bai Yuchan had lunch here, and while eating, they still talked to each other from time to time. After the meal, the discussion continued, and until it was dark and night, all the details were still not finalized.
Like this kind of merger of two sects, and both are not small sects, there are already a lot of problems and details to discuss, where can all be agreed on within a day, and it is common to talk for a month or two, this is still Yin Zhiping has already proposed a perfect merger plan, and the two sides do not need to spend time on this. And with the beginning of the actual merger, there will be many new problems to be solved in the future, and the two sides can only negotiate a general and specific framework at the moment. However, this is probably not a framework that can be negotiated in a short period of time.
Yin Zhiping still has a vacant room in the small courtyard where they live, and when it comes to night, Qiu Chuji asks Bai Yuchan to simply move in with him, which is also convenient for daily discussions. Bai Yutoad did not refuse, and agreed in one bite.
Qiu Chuji asked Bai Yuchan not to go back to pack his luggage, so he invited Guo Jing to come over and asked Guo Jing to send someone to the inn where Bai Yuchan lived in Dashengguan City under the mountain to get Bai Yuchan's luggage. Bai Yuchan told a few more things that needed attention, and a few people talked about it again until late at night, before they dispersed and went back to their rooms to rest.
In the meantime, Yang had already returned, but he couldn't intervene in this kind of topic at all, and he, a lay disciple and a junior, was not qualified to participate in talking about this kind of thing. can only serve beside him, serve tea and water to a few people, and run errands back and forth.
In the next two days, Qiu Chuji, Yin Zhiping and Bai Yuchan were almost not discharged from the hospital, and they started to discuss every morning when they got up, and they talked all day until late at night.
Two days have passed, but this day is finally the eighth day of the lunar month, the first day of the Heroes Conference. In the meantime, many heroes from all over the world have come one after another. The Dashengguan Guancheng below and the Lujiazhuang on Jigong Mountain are more lively.
However, Qiu Chuji, Yin Zhiping, and Bai Yuchan were not discharged from the hospital, and they also refused to visit for the past two days, and they did not know much about these changes. However, Yang Guo also went out for a period of time every day, or went out with Guo Fu to talk nonsense and joke, followed by the two tails of the Wu brothers, or talked to Guo Jing about the aftermath, asked some questions, and sometimes asked Guo Jing for some martial arts.
Guo Jing didn't hide anything from him, and he also wanted to know about his martial arts in Zhongnan Mountain in the past three years, but before the day of Yang Guo's martial arts competition with Guo Fu, he first tried to test Yang Guo's martial arts. After trying, he was very satisfied with Yang Guo's current progress and mastery of martial arts, and he was even more grateful to Yin Zhiping and Qiu Chuji.
It's just that in the past two days, Qiu Chuji and Yin Zhiping have been busy discussing the merger of the two factions with the Taoist named Bai Yuchan, and refused to visit, although he is not among the refusals to visit, but he does not want to bother lightly, so in the past two days, he has not had the opportunity to thank Qiu Chuji and Yin Zhiping for their trouble in teaching Yang Guo.
After trying Yang Guo's martial arts, Guo Jing already knew the competition between Yang Guo and Guo Fu in his heart, and knew that Yang Guo's victory was very great, and his baby daughter basically had no chance of winning. However, despite knowing this, he did not mention it to Guo Fu, nor did he deliberately urge Guo Fu to practice martial arts, let alone deliberately choose some moves for Yang Guo's martial arts to teach Guo Fu. But he also wanted his arrogant daughter to suffer a defeat and break her temperament.
On the first day of the Heroes Conference on the eighth day of the lunar month, if Guo Jing hadn't come to ask for a reminder, Qiu Chuji, Yin Zhiping, and Bai Yuchan would have almost forgotten about the Heroes Conference. Qiu Chuji, Yin Zhiping and a few people came to Dashengguan to participate in the Heroes Conference, although Bai Yuchan's actual purpose was to be able to meet the people from the Quanzhen Sect here, but the apparent purpose was also to participate in the Heroes Conference, and they also relied on this excuse to get in.
On the first day of the Heroes Conference, they naturally couldn't ignore it, and anyway, the details of the merger of the two factions could not be discussed for a while, so they also suspended it for a day and came out to participate in the Heroes Conference. (To be continued.) )
