Chapter 160: A good strategy to eliminate the plague
Xue Lanyi came to Huizhou this time, in addition to leading her disciples to treat the people, she was also preparing to recruit a group of female disciples to return to the mountain. On that day, the battle of Xuannv Palace had suffered heavy casualties, and the century-old foundation was almost destroyed. Although she carried out drastic reforms, the fundamental reason for carrying forward the sect and passing on martial arts was still dependent on people.
It is impossible to say that she respects chivalrous and has no selfishness when she saves the people. The outbreak of the Jiangnan plague is a great opportunity for Xuannv Palace to increase its reputation and to increase its talents. The leader of the Zhengdao Martial Arts in the Jianghu City first recommended Dajue Temple, Zhengyi Sect, and Xuannv Palace.
It is understandable that if these martial arts leaders retreat at this time, they will be afraid that they will lose their reputation in the world sooner or later. Although the abbot of the Dajue Temple did not come in person, he also sent the first Bodhi Academy and many medical monks. The Zhengyi Sect in Longhu Mountain is the ancestor of the Taoist sect in the world. The 50th generation of Master Zhang Tian is also a holy relative. Praying for blessings and disasters is their specialty, so they are naturally unwilling to be defeated.
Three major sects presided over the overall situation, and the other sects naturally followed the example. For a time, many martial arts people gathered on the ground in Jiangnan. The place where various sects dated and joined the alliance was set in Huangshan. In front of a huge stone plaza at the foot of Huangshan, there were people from various sects. Each of these martial arts people held banners of all sizes.
Feng Miaoqing is a nun, so he is unable to sit with Xiao Yunfan, so he is still with Master Xuanyuan and others. He is an old acquaintance with Huo Zhongyuan and Yu Nansong, so he sits in the Bashan Sect. The number of people from all walks of life that come to the alliance is as many as 2,000.
On a wooden platform in front of Shiping, four apricot and yellow pendant flags were hung on each corner of the wooden platform. The flag was written with the word Tian. When the martial arts leader Jun Linyuan was in the past, the righteous martial arts world was called "Tiandao Sect". Later, after Jun Linyuan resigned, the Tiandao Sect was in name only, but the tradition of the Tiandao flag was still preserved.
An old monk with a clear face and a cassock walked onto the wooden platform with a golden ring and copper tin in his hand. The old monk was over 60 years old, with two white eyebrows lowered, but his eyes were shining brightly. The old monk's name was "Zhitong", and he was the junior brother of the Abbot Zhishan, who was in the first seat of the Bodhi Courtyard.
He stood with one hand in front of his chest and said, "I am merciful, and it will overcome difficulties." Before he came to the stage, the heroes sat in one place and clamored. However, as soon as he said this, he actually covered everyone's voices. The heroes were all shocked and admired them. "The martial arts of Dajue Temple is worthy of being the best in the world." "This old monk is so amazing", "I didn't expect that this thin old monk had such cultivation."
Monk Zhitong said, "All martial arts fellows, today we invite you to come to discuss the fight against the plague. I wonder if all the wise men have good plans?" The heroes said, "I heard a loud voice and started talking like a sensation."
At this time, a gentle young man with a light robe and a ribbon jumped onto the wooden platform, with his body movements extremely agile. The hero couldn't help but cheer. The young man clasped his fists and smiled at Monk Zhitong, "Master, do you have any words that I don't know whether to say or not?"
Monk Zhitong was acquaintance with this young master and smiled and said, "It turns out that he is the young master of the Shenjian Pavilion. Youdao is the tiger father but no dog son. Since the young master has a good plan, let's talk to everyone."
When the heroes heard this, they immediately felt awe-inspiring. Although the name of the Divine Sword Pavilion is not as famous as the three major sects, it is also an important force in the martial arts world in the south of the Yangtze River. The young pavilion's owner is Lin Zhongquan, who is 27 or 28 years old and has a handsome appearance.
Jiang Hanyue looked at the young master and said, "This young master is so beautiful." The other female disciples also praised him very much. Only Shui Hanyan said silently.
In her heart, Xiao Yunfan was the only one. Even though the other men were outstanding in appearance, they were not as good as Xiao Yunfan in her opinion.
Lin Zhongquan held his fists and saluted to Qunhao and said, "All the martial arts fellows, if the people are suffering today, it is the time for us to do it. I am not talented and have a clumsy strategy in my heart. It can be considered as throwing a brick and attracting jade when I say it."
Among the heroes, a fat man with red face said, "Young Master Lin, we are all rough people. Apart from knowing some superficial skills and having the strength to do anything else. If you have any good ideas, just say, don't be humble."
Lin Zhongquan paused and said, "Now the plague is prevalent, we have to trace the origin according to Xiaoke's opinion. Only by finding the source of the plague can it be effective. Everyone is divided into three teams to do this, and the first team is responsible for the transmission of information and contact matters.
The second team visited when the plague began in various places, and from which house. Make records and send messages to the general league with flying pigeons. The third team distributed the good medicines brought by everyone to the people of all over the country, and left behind to see the effect. They also sent daily messages to the general league with flying pigeons. All matters will be decided by the general league."
As soon as he said this, the heroes nodded and praised the reputation of the Divine Sword Pavilion. Lin Zhongquan couldn't help but be proud. He bowed and said, "You are so ridiculous, you dare not take it." In the crowd, Jiang Hanyue said, "Junior Sister Shui, this young master Lin is much stronger than Xiao Yunfan. You often praise Xiao Yunfan for being so amazing, but at this moment he didn't say a word, which is unreasonable."
Shui Hanyan said indignantly: "Sister Sister, Brother Xiao just doesn't like to show off this, and he must have a clever view in his heart." Jiang Hanyue said: "Tsk tsk, if he really has a clever view, why not stand up and say to the heroes?" Shui Hanyan looked towards the Bashan Sect and saw Xiao Yunfan talking to Huo Zhongyuan with a smile, and couldn't help but feel angry.
Feng Miaoqing was also thinking at this moment: "Why didn't Xiao Yunfan say something?" In fact, this young master Lin had an engagement with Feng Miaoqing, but the Lin family broke the contract because of the charges that Chunqiu Tower was found by the court. Otherwise, Feng Miaoqing might have been the wife of Mr. Lin at this time.
Huo Zhongyuan whispered in Xiao Yunfan's ear: "Brother Xiao, why don't you go up and talk?" Xiao Yunfan said: "This young master is exactly what I want to say. I'm afraid that what I said may not be as good as he said, so I'm not embarrassed." Huo Zhongyuan frowned and said: "Brother, isn't this like he used to be?" Xiao Yunfan said: "Mr. Huo, are you going to put me on the fire pit?"
Huo Zhongyuan suddenly woke up and said to himself: "Brother Xiao is probably worried that he would steal the limelight from the young master of the Shenjian Pavilion and become a grudge with the Shenjian Pavilion in the future." Huo Zhongyuan pondered for a moment and asked again: "Brother, when will you do it?" Xiao Yunfan whispered in his ear: "I'll wait for this matter, you always recommend Master Zhitong for me. Let's discuss it slowly."
Monk Zhitong said to Qunhao: "If the young master is the one who has any objection?" One of the people in Qunhao said: "The young master is thoughtful, so everyone can do it according to his wishes." Among these people, they all wanted to take this opportunity to curry favor with the Shenjian Pavilion, so even if he had any mistakes in his idea, he would not say it easily, which made Master Lin unhappy.
At the passage: "Since that's the case, please go to the shed to rest first. Let us discuss it again, and we will know everyone again." At this time, Mr. Lin slowly walked down from the stage and returned to the team of our sect. Zhitong and seven other famous people sat down in a shed to the north. Outside the shed, several monks stood guard with sticks.
Except for Xue Lanyi and Zhitong, the other five are respectively
He is the eldest disciple of Zhang Tianshi of Zhengyi Sect, Taoist Gu Feng, Sima Mingcheng, the deputy leader of the Chishui Gang, Lin Qingya, the great elder of the Shenjian Pavilion, Mo Wanhe, the elder of the Beggars' Sect, and Jin Wanliang, the third shopkeeper of Jin Yutang.
At the passage: "What do you think of the master Lin Shao Pavilion? "Xue Lanyi said: "Young Master Lin's method is very good, and I agree very much." Xue Lanyi has always been proud and refused to bow to others. However, the situation has changed now. She tried her best to maintain good relations with various factions, and she naturally wanted to have a good relationship with the Shenjian Pavilion.
Lin Qingya looked red and said with a smile: "Master Xue Palace, if you let that boy hear your words, your tail may be raised to the sky." Lin Qingya clearly criticized and praised him. He was very happy to hear Xue Lanyi say this. The Lin family's young handsome man naturally added luster. Xue Lanyi smiled and said: "I tell the truth, but there is nothing to say."
Mo Wanhe echoed, "My Beggars' Sect's words are light. As long as everyone decides, let us serve." The implication is quite consistent. Taoist Gu Feng is a middle-aged man over fifty years old, with a national face and a beard. He glanced at everyone, and his eyes fell on the face of the monk Zhitong and slowly said, "Master Zhitong, Young Master Lin's method is indeed wonderful, but I still have one worry."
Monk Zhitong said, "Master, please speak, let me tell you, let's talk about it together." Gu Feng said, "Our great fanfare will inevitably alarm the government. Although we are out of kindness, the government will doubt that we are gathering people to rebel, and it will be extremely troublesome to pursue it. The most urgent thing is that we will write a letter together to ask the court for approval."
The Chishui Gang had contacts with the government. Sima Cheng agreed with Taoist Gu Feng's argument very much, and immediately agreed: "The Taoist Master is very good, I agree with the Taoist Master's proposal." Jin Yutang is an organization of local commercial banks. They do business and have contacts with major sects in the martial arts world, and are quite afraid of the court. Jin Wanliang sipped the tea ceremony: "The Taoist Master's argument, Jin Mou agreed."
Zhitong nodded and said, "I agree. But what are the concerns about the Taoist priests besides the approval of the court?" Taoist priest Gu Feng said slowly, "I am sorry that I cannot agree with what Master Lin said. First, this plague is rampant now, so we will send a team of people to trace the origin. Isn't it a waste of time?"
Lin Qingya heard Gu Feng say this and said unhappily: "The Taoist Master said this is unnecessary. Could it be that the Taoist Master knows the source of the plague?" Taoist Master Gu Feng smiled and pointed at Mo Wanhe: "If you want to be well-informed, it is the Beggars' Sect. I think Elder Mo's subordinates are clear about the matters that are mainly investigated by Mr. Lin. Why do you have to work hard for you to go there again?"
Mo Wanhe laughed dryly and said, "The Taoist Master is a mistake." Taoist Master Gu Feng continued, "Besides, it is not practical to treat the people and let these friends in the world stay at the sick's home. First, these friends in the world eat a lot, and stay at the other's home will inevitably become a burden to the people. Second, if these friends in the world stay in the place, what should they do if they are infected with the plague?"
Lin Qingya heard what he said, his old face couldn't help but turn red. Master Gu Feng took a sip of tea and said, "Third, gather the drugs from each sect and distribute them to patients. I am afraid that only the people in my family will know the efficacy of this medicine. Distribute them to other families. Once there are any mistakes in the middle. Someone mixes the medicine and treats the dead. Who will bear the consequences?"
Lin Zhongquan's words were obtained from Lin Qingya. Gu Feng criticized this "good strategy" in front of everyone. Lin Qingya couldn't help but feel uneasy and had to use excuses to leave.
