Chapter 58 New Information
Copper bells, featherless arrows, river beard grass, jade bottles.
These are the four existing Dharma phases of Xiao Ming Zhenling Pond that Jiang Feng learned through the "Phase Dividing Technique", and then reflected through the "Spectral Talisman" without saying the name.
"You can choose one as your future Dharma image."
What, is there such a thing? Xiao Mingzhen's eyes suddenly became round and looked at Jiang Feng with an incredible look. Isn't there a natural destiny in the awakening of Dharma? Even if the parents are monks of the same Dharma, it is impossible for them to give birth to children of the same Dharma. Even the same Dharma image is only very likely. This is the law of nature proven by monks of the cultivation world. Now, what is the situation for yourself to choose?
"Guluo copper bells, silver feather iron and stone arrows, Miluo fantasy heart grass, mutton fat jade bottle."
Xiao Mingzhen recited the names of four Dharma images based on the patterns that Jiang Feng imagined one by one.
This time it was Jiang Feng's turn to be surprised.
Xiao Mingzhen's understanding of Dharma instantly subverted his previous evaluation of her. Is this willful girl who loves to lie quite knowledgeable? In contrast, she only gave a simple name according to her image, and even had a kind of "river grass", which seemed to have admitted her mistakes. Unexpectedly, although "literary cultivation" is still as barbaric as "martial cultivation", she is still superior to others in terms of knowledge about the past and the present.
"I choose Guluo bronze bell."
Xiao Mingzhen spent at least two incense sticks and thought left and right, until the image on the concrete talisman was about to dissipate, then the answer was given. This was a bit different from what Jiang Feng expected. Jiang Feng originally thought she would choose "no feather arrows", that is, the "silver feather iron and stone arrows" she mentioned. Judging from the image of the Dharma image, this is the only combat-like Dharma image, but Xiao Mingzhen obviously hesitated for a longer time on the "Guluo Copper Bell" and "Miluo Fantasy Heart Grass".
"If you weren't lying to me, you would be even better than I thought." Xiao Mingzhen said seriously and respectfully for the first time. Although it was not the first time he called "you", Jiang Feng could feel the sincerity in this sentence.
"the same as you."
The two looked at each other and talked about other things, but did not continue to get entangled in this matter, just as everyone got a treasure.
…………
Dayi County is more prosperous than Jiang Feng imagined.
Of course, this prosperity is still a little far from the slums of Zhenwu City, but compared to the appearance of other places in the Asanyama Sect, it is already quite good.
There are construction everywhere, and not everyone can afford to "building monks" to build quickly. Many of them rely on the power of ordinary people. The uneven pavilions and pavilions, and the various materials piled up in chaotic places are everywhere. Fortunately, the market was planned early and left a lot of money for future development. From this point of view, Ding Baozhen, the deacon of the Construction and Service Department, still did a lot of work. Thinking of this, I felt a little relieved about the maid Ding Lingyun's escape from Zhanchuan Town.
Yu Xiaozheng's shop is located in the northeast corner of the Cross Street. Although it is not the best position, according to the judgment of future crowds, it is also one of the best prime locations. The store's store is not large, only about fifty steps, but the depth reaches 200 steps. The typical "front store and back home" pattern is different from most of the surrounding shops. His shop opened early, probably because it was quickly built by hiring "building monks" at a high price.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Jiang Feng decided to choose an inn that had arranged a soundproof magic array called "Yuelai". The group settled down first, and presided over the ceremony that night, and removed the first magic image "mutton fat jade bottle" for Xiao Mingzhen. When the drop of spiritual liquid fell into the gourd, regardless of the exhaustion of spiritual energy, he told the two maids and entourages a few words, and then went out at night and drove Yu Xiaozheng's grocery store.
"You are finally here." Yu Xiaozheng was there, and he was still not asleep with red eyes. In order to make it easier to leave the sect management store, he found a way to ask someone to handle the position of "foreign affairs walking", so he could get rid of the pain of "Dianmao". Seeing him alone, Yu Xiaozheng said mysteriously, "Hey, where is that girl?"
"What girl?"
"Don't fool me. There are ox carts everywhere in Dayi Town. You are a group of three horses and whistles. Do you think I'm blind? I saw that girl, like a lady from a wealthy family, where did you cheat me?"
"Oh," Jiang Feng leaned back, showing a smile that everyone understood, "So you know everything."
"Don't interrupt, I'll ask your girl, can you introduce it to me?"
"He has two Xuan-level guards. If you are willing to go, go and report my name." Jiang Feng patted Yu Xiaozheng on the shoulder and encouraged him a little.
Ignoring Yu Xiaozheng's entanglement, I found an empty room to sleep. Compared to the inn that was monitored by Xiao Mingzhen's guard, Jiang Feng could trust him more. At least Yu Xiaozheng would not harm him.
This simply furnished room is located in a corner of the courtyard. From here you can see the vast wasteland in the backyard. Thinking about it, maybe this was the land he bought in advance. Now, the land price should have doubled without waiting for the shop on the street to become popular. This was what he asked the inn owner specifically. However, he had to pay Xiao Mingzhen a third-level prepaid, which was three third-level and seventy second-level loose money. He didn't have to be so anxious to sell the land. Maybe he could wait.
He was speechless all night, and early the next morning, Zheng Keyi gently knocked on his door.
Compared to what I saw last time, Yi's skin color was obviously much dimmer. Her originally elegant outfit disappeared. She replaced it with "mediocre powder" and even wore gold and silver things that were common in the mundane world. Of course, this is all for integrating into life here and making things easier to move.
If you want to work in this originally remote Dayi Town, it is much harder than being an ordinary woman in the Zheng family. Besides, you are not only tired but also hardworking when you are responsible for the tasks given by Jiang Feng. When you appointed her to Dayi County, Jiang Feng only gave her one second-level pocket money. Compared with the prices here yesterday, one second-level cannot be considered too much. I believe that the difficulties caused by funding constraints will not be too few.
"Meet the adults." The two met outside the sect and used the title of "adults". Yu Xiaozheng was a grocery store and did not set up a non-essential thing such as a sound insulation array. For this reason, Jiang Feng believed that the next purchase, he would need to add some "sound insulation notes". Although this second-level standard talisman can only have the effect of one stick of incense, it is sufficient in most cases.
"Thank you for your hard work, how is it going?"
Zheng Keyi told the information he had collected recently, without any complaints or complaints about difficulties, which made Jiang Feng feel deeply relieved and said little nonsense. Jiang Feng originally didn't know much about her, but after all, he was brought here as a spy a few days after being sent to "sleeping". Therefore, this report was the first time the two of them had a deep conversation.
Zheng Keyi has initially opened up the situation here. There are now more than 1,200 permanent residents in Dayi County, with a daily passenger flow of about 200 people. The monthly large gathering can reach 600 people. These data come from estimates, and it is not easy to do these while helping in the store.
She also organized a small group of "sisters", and the development targets are ordinary women working here, ranging from teenagers to fifties. Now there are twenty-nine members. Zheng Keyi knows the good craftsmanship of embroidery. By communicating with the "sisters", they can earn some pocket money in Dayi Town and collect various information by discussing family matters. Although the level is not high, the coverage is wide.
With Yu Xiaozheng's encouragement, she mainly needed to take leave and was still learning spiritual herb identification and magic tool binding. Both are practical and excellent ordinary craftsmanship. Once you learn it, you can enter a more advanced circle and the information you can obtain is more detailed and effective.
He is a good girl who is willing to make progress. He knows her shortcomings and knows how to change this situation through hard work.
This is the initial review given by Jiang Feng. The foundation of the Six Dharma Figures is really bad. Jiang Feng plans to continue to inspect her for a while before making a decision. It is time for the Hanshan Sect Dharma Assembly. Xiao Ming's real thing has already squeezed the schedule and can't find time at all.
Although it was complicated and mostly market rumors, three pieces of information provided by Zheng Keyi caught Jiang Feng's attention.
The first was a report about the clan staff. Twenty days ago, Wang Jiufu, who was inside the gate, had come to Dayi County and stayed at the "Ruyi" Inn. Because the price of the wine indicated by the store was incorrect, the two sides had a conflict, and Wang Jiufu was slightly injured. This incident caused quite a stir in Dayi County.
Wang Jiufu is one of the three Xuan-level monks of the Wang family, Wang Xiandao's nephew. He had previously worked in the Legislative Department for lunch, but after the reform of the Six Division, he was removed from his post. What he did here is whether he would make trouble in the inn for a little money? There must be something strange behind this.
The second part about Hanshan School was talked about by local Wu Ma. When talking, it was said that many Hanshan School spies have come to Dayi County recently. Although they are disguised, the subtle accent differences still reveal their differences.
The Hanshan Sect Dharma Assembly is approaching, and it is natural to send monks to detect the situation nearby to ensure the safety of the Dharma Assembly. However, frequent visits to the Shanshan Sect may have other purposes to contact Wang Jiufu? Could it be that he is the person who leaked the whereabouts of several elders? If so, the person behind him will definitely be Wang Xiandao, but what are the benefits of Wang Xiandao doing this? After getting a special promise, or smashing the mess? Jiang Feng thought about it, but there were too few clues to make arbitrary judgments. He had to make a long-term plan.
The third thing is not a secret, but an incident known to the entire Dayi County and even the northern part of the Asanyama Sect. Li Xianwu, director of the Yufeng Sect’s central cabinet, fled and was said to have come to the direction of the Asanyama Sect. Therefore, Yufeng Sect sent five law enforcement teams to the Asanyama Sect to search, but returned unsuccessfully.
"Central Pavilion Director" is a senior official of the Yufeng Sect, whose status is between the elders of the foreign affairs and the deacons of the foreign affairs. Of course, it cannot be simply compared, because the governance method of the Yufeng Sect is different from that of the surrounding sects. As a model of "cultural cultivation", the Yufeng Sect has no clear requirements for the cultivation of officials, and even ordinary people can hold a high position. They only need to read poetry and books and be admitted to "Taixue", and after being admitted and trained by the "Taixue", they can serve in the "Taige", "Xiaoge" and "Eight Capitals" according to their graduation results. Taige manages the internal affairs of the monks, the Central Pavilion manages foreign affairs, while the Central Pavilion manages ordinary people, and the Badu has different functions, running through the three Tai, Zhong and Xia Pavilion. "Central Pavilion Director" belongs to the "Central Pavilion Master" and generally more than one deputy official.
As a common problem in the governance of "cultural cultivation", every few years, there will be officials defections in Yufeng Sect, which is mostly due to official struggles and failures in power struggles. Yufeng Sect rarely comes to pursue and flee. This time, the escape of people named "Li Xianwu" is mostly in this category. It is just that I don't know why this person was chased by the Yufeng Sect law enforcement team. Perhaps there is an ulterior motive in it? Jiang Feng looked at the portrait and found that the reason why this wanted order was circulated in the northern part of the Asanyama Sect was definitely because the reward was full of ten second-level prizes. This money was enough for an ordinary mundane to live a well-off life for the first half of his life.
After receiving the wanted sign, Jiang Feng directly paid out five second-level spirit stones to Zheng Keyi as follow-up activities, and stopped her from submitting her previous bills of details, and told her to do everything cheaply without reporting everything. This big move made Zheng Keyi flattered. You must know that she had never seen such a large amount of "pocket money" in the Zheng family.
After dismissing Zheng Keyi, Jiang Feng sat quietly for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and was about to go out to the "Yuelai" Inn to check Xiao Mingzhen's physical condition, but he heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door.
