Chapter 198: Five Directions and Five Elements(1/2)
After some pleasantries, everyone started discussing the topic of setting up a charity hall.
"It is not difficult to set up a charity. As long as you have money, you can easily do it. What is difficult is the subsequent management. How can we ensure that the managers of the charity will do their best and treat the adopted babies well, and there will be no harsh treatment? The phenomenon of children.”
"In our country of Zhao, we also have charity halls, which are all set up in the name of the royal family. Many orphans have been adopted in them. At first, the managers of the charity hall were pretty good and they were doing their best."
"But as time goes by, mistreatment of children often occurs, and depriving them of food is common. What's more, children are often beaten and scolded, and if they don't go their way at all, they take it out on them."
"This matter has been banned repeatedly. Even in our charity hall in the imperial capital of Zhao Kingdom, members of the royal family often come to inspect, but they can't prevent this situation from happening."
"This is the case at the foot of the Imperial City, let alone other places. But the charity hall cannot be ignored. With the charity hall, those homeless children at least have a place to go. But if there is no charity hall, those children will have no place to go. I really can only wait to die."
"This is also the case in our country of Tang..."
Everyone is either from the royal family or from a wealthy family. They are very familiar with the affairs of the Shantang, and they speak clearly and logically. This is because Shantang exists in all countries. It was specially set up by the royal family to show their kindness.
If you want to open a charity hall, there are two most critical points.
One is to have money, lots and lots of money. Because only in this way can we support the daily expenses of a large group of children. Food, drink, clothing, housing, etc. all require money.
No one needs to think about this. The most important thing for monks is yellow and white things. There are as many as they want.
Secondly, in addition to money, the managers of the charity are also extremely important. Their wealth must be clean, their conduct must be above ordinary people, and they must not abuse children.
If the management personnel are not good enough, the impact will be huge. If the good hall is not allowed, it will turn into an evil hall and become a place where filth and evil people gather. It will lose its original intention of being good. Most importantly, it will destroy the children inside.
This is what everyone is worried about. If there are no problems in shantangs in various countries, if there are problems, they are basically in the hands of the managers.
"Oh, it's still a problem with the teleportation array. If there is a teleportation array, why bother? There is no need to set up a charity hall outside. After finding the child, just bring it back to Zixu Palace."
"My Zixu Palace has millions of outer disciples and hundreds of thousands of inner disciples. Taking care of some children is not an easy task?"
Li Qingzhao sighed and said helplessly.
Her idea is very good. There is no need to set up a charity hall outside. She only needs to arrange people outside to be responsible for receiving the children and then bringing them back to Zixu Palace to raise them.
Compared with the managers of Shantang, it is obvious that the character of the disciples of Zixu Palace is more trustworthy. At least, the disciples of Zixu Palace, even the outer disciples, must pass the test of Daofeng before entering. Generally, As far as the character is concerned, there is no problem.
Even if there is a question of character, the disciples of Zixu Palace will not do anything to children because it is not worth it.
The outer disciples of Zixu Palace may not be considered a big deal within the sect, but after leaving the sect and walking among the secular world, they are figures respected by everyone no matter where they go.
This means that even if the outer disciples of Zixu Palace have no hope of cultivating Taoism, they can still become rich when they return to their hometown.
The matter of child abuse shows that one's character must be disliked by immortals. There is no need for the disciples of Zixu Palace to ruin their bright future because of this trivial matter. It is not worth it.
Therefore, it is the best choice to bring the children back to Zixu Palace to raise them. You don’t have to worry about them being treated harshly. Moreover, raising these children in Zixu Palace itself is a way to train disciples. If someone shows the talent of cultivating Taoism,
Can be directly integrated into the door wall.
It's a pity that although this method is good, it does not meet the conditions for implementation. Dongzhou is too big. Without the teleportation array, the distance is often tens of thousands of miles, and traveling there is a troublesome task.
"Monks have the ability to separate souls and turn thoughts into thoughts. I can leave a mark in the charity hall and monitor the situation in the charity hall at all times. If anyone does evil, I will kill them with thunder to deter others."
Jiang Chen thought for a while and came up with his own solution. It was nothing more than working harder and devoting part of his mind to looking after the situation of the shantang.
"This method is good. With senior brother personally taking care of it, it can indeed prevent this situation from happening. But will this move affect senior brother's practice?"
"It would be great if my senior brother were in the fifth level. Masters of the Holy Manifestation can manifest miracles in the world, collect incense and make wishes to strengthen themselves, and possess all kinds of incredible power."
"When the time comes, we only need to set up a temple in the shrine and offer incense to our senior brother, and we will be able to attract his spiritual thoughts to come and monitor all things."
"This move replaces the consumption of spiritual thoughts with the power of incense and aspiration. It does not need to consume senior brother's own spiritual energy, thus affecting his own cultivation."
After hearing Jiang Chen's idea, everyone couldn't help but nod, thinking that this method was indeed feasible.
But at this time, another problem appeared in front of everyone. Jiang Chen's strength was less than fifth level, so he devoted part of his mind to monitoring the Shantang. This undoubtedly affected his own energy and affected his cultivation. This was a bit more than gain.
"It doesn't matter. Although I am not a fifth-grade person, I can use the power of incense and wish to practice, but I have my own secret method that can separate my mind to monitor the external situation without sacrificing my own energy."
Jiang Chen smiled and told everyone not to worry, he had his own way to break the situation.
The fifth level of manifesting a saint is a very special realm where one can use external forces to improve one's cultivation. The most commonly used external force among monks is the power of incense and fire.
This is the transformation of the thoughts of sentient beings, which is extremely mysterious. With the help of the power of incense and aspiration, monks can display many extraordinary methods.
As long as the incense and aspiration are sufficient, even if you are thousands of miles away, you can manifest your own projection and use various means to kill demons.
It can be said that most of the Dongzhou temples were built by monks to collect incense and vows.
If Jiang Chen is at the fifth level, he can fuse his thoughts with the incense and aspiration, and turn into a clone to stay in the world. In this case, he can use the clone to take care of the situation of the shantang, without having to separate his mind and energy.
However, Jiang Chen is not yet at the fifth level and cannot collect incense and aspiration power, making it difficult to do this. This is why everyone is worried about him, fearing that he will be distracted and delay his practice.
But everyone didn't know Jiang Chen's methods. Although he couldn't collect the power of incense and wishes, he had a divine orifice in his body that gave birth to the innate god. In the oven of heaven and earth, there were four stars, which could provide him with endless power.
.
Jiang Chen's idea was to leave a mark of the sun god and use the power of the sun star to keep him immortal, so as to monitor the situation of the shantang for him.
"Senior brother, do you have a way? Could it be that senior brother knows the method of incarnation, so that he can condense an avatar and walk outside?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately guessed that Jiang Chen must have some kind of external incarnation method, which could condense an incarnation and walk outside in place of the original deity.
"almost!"
Jiang Chen smiled and didn't explain too much. Maintaining a sense of mystery was also a way of doing things.
"Junior brothers and sisters, have you ever met the royal family of the Dali Dynasty? When you set up a charity hall in someone else's place, you should at least say hello to the host." Changing the topic, Jiang Chen asked again.
"Senior brother, don't worry about this. The founding ancestor of the Dali Dynasty is the descendant of a certain elder of the sect. Before we came, we had already communicated with that elder. No matter what senior brother does, the Dali Dynasty will fully support it.
"
Li Qingzhao assured that the sect had already taken care of everything before coming.
"Well, in that case, I would also like to ask all the junior brothers and sisters to do me a favor and help find some suitable manpower." Nodding, Jiang Chen said.
"It's natural!"
Everyone came here for this reason, so naturally they would not refuse. Immediately, they told Jiang Chen, and everyone left the place and took action one after another.
At the same time, Jiang Chen also left and rushed to an open space in the north of the city, where he personally cut stones and fell trees to build a charity hall.
As a gathering place for children, shantang has to guard against not only people, but also monsters. Monsters like to eat people, especially babies and young children, so places with many children are most likely to attract monsters.
If Jiang Chen sets up a charity hall, he must guard it with a formation, otherwise it will be a huge disaster if the demon comes.
Now, what Jiang Chen is doing is manipulating the formation, the innate five directions and five elements formation, and building a house at the same time.
Monks building houses are naturally different from ordinary people. In just a few days, groups of houses were formed in Jiang Chen's hands, enough to accommodate nearly ten thousand people.
This charity hall was built by Jiang Chen based on the five elements. It contains a set of innate five-direction and five-element formations, which can not only evolve the five-element divine thunder to defend against enemies, but also absorb spiritual energy from all directions and nourish the creatures inside.
The five innate elements are self-contained. Among them, the east belongs to wood, which contains a lot of vitality and can be used as a residence for children. Jiang Chen spent the most time here and built thousands of rooms, which can theoretically accommodate three to four thousand children.
Next is the north. The five elements belong to water and can purify all things. Jiang Chen has set up a huge sewage tank here. The filthy things produced by the people in the shrine from eating, drinking and defecating will be discharged here and be purified by the power of water.
.
The south belongs to fire, which is the kitchen...
…
…………
For this Shantang, Jiang Chen really put his heart and soul into it. The innate five directions and five elements formation can be said to be one of the most powerful formations he has mastered, and it has infinite magical effects.
With the protection of this formation, the creatures living here will be nourished by the spiritual energy of the five elements day and night. Not only will they be free from all diseases, but if things go on like this, their qualifications will also be improved. In the future, whether they are practicing martial arts or cultivating immortals, they will have great benefits.
Of course, even if Jiang Chen takes into account everything he can think of, various problems will arise when it is actually put into operation.
But that's not important. It's not like he just established the Shantang and then left this place alone. Even if he leaves, he will leave an incarnation to take care of this place.
The difference between the incarnation and the main body is that except for the difference in power and absolute obedience to the orders of the main body, there is no other difference from the main body. If there is a problem, Jiang Chen's incarnation will handle everything.
"The innate five-direction and five-element formation is the top innate formation. It is a Tao-carrying formation that can carry the great avenues of heaven and earth. Even if the formation I arranged only has a trace of the original charm, it is still enough for mortals.
, enough for them to benefit endlessly.”
After the formation was completed, Jiang Chen thought for a moment and suddenly stretched out his finger towards the formation point.
Boom!
In an instant, bright lightning burst out from the void, appearing in five colors, and struck towards Jiang Chen one after another.
This is the innate five-element divine thunder, which is used to operate the innate five-element power of the five-party formation. Its power is even greater than Jiang Chen's five-element divine thunder.
"Very good. There is a great array of five directions and five elements. If a fifth-grade demon comes and breaks into it forcefully, it will not escape the fate of being destroyed by lightning."
After testing the power of the formation, Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
In order to build this formation, the five elements of spiritual objects he obtained from the Demonic Battlefield were basically used up. Fortunately, the power of the formation did not disappoint him.
"According to rumors, if you want to maximize the power of the Innate Five Directions and Five Elements Formation, you need to use the Innate Five Directions Flag as the object to set up the formation."
"Unfortunately, among the five innate flags, I only have one Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, and the other four treasure flags are not yet clear, so I have not maximized the power of this formation.
"If this is not the case, as long as the imprint of the innate five-square flag is left, the power of this formation can be further improved, enough to withstand a fourth-level expert."
The Innate Five Directions Flag is also a top-notch innate treasure. Unfortunately, Jiang Chen has only refined one Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag so far. The other four flags require him to open up the remaining four divine orifices to take shape.
Of course, it has only just begun to take shape, and there is still an extremely long way to go before it can become a top-level innate spiritual treasure.
"Junior brother and sister, we should have almost enough manpower to find them. Let's go there and have a look."
