"Uncle Ma, Uncle Qi, Uncle Cui..."
Wang Yan saw those familiar faces and said hello quickly.
The few people didn't know what they were talking about. When they heard Wang Hao's voice, they stopped immediately and looked at Wang Hao one after another.
These people are all very close to Wang Ba, and when they saw Wang Ba arriving, they all smiled.
They all greeted Wang Ba.
Wang Hao also walked to a few people and said with a smile: "It seems that the disciple has just disturbed a few uncles."
"Hey, what are you talking about? I'm just chatting about the deputy palace master. "Who has a better chance, me or Uncle Ma?"
Qi Rulian, however, did not mince words and spoke straightforwardly.
This is his character.
Ma Shengxu and Cui Daqi were helpless when they heard this.
Ma Shengxu shook his head and said:
"Don't listen to his nonsense. We were mainly talking about the treasure raft for crossing the tribulation."
Wang Yan said curiously:
"The treasure raft to overcome the tribulation?"
"Yes, Sect Master Shao and the First Elder personally supervised the construction. I heard that the progress is going very fast. In another twenty or thirty years, it may be completed."
< br>
Cui Daqi took over the conversation.
"Twenty or thirty years?"
Wang Ha couldn't help but nodded when he heard this. This time is indeed not that long. He said curiously:
"The treasure raft for crossing the tribulation is almost completed. , I don’t know what the situation of this big flood is now..."
"What else can happen? Moreover, it is now said that the coast of the West Sea has been raised three times, and there are many more monks from the Three Continents. The Changsheng Sect, Youxian Temple, Qin Sect, and our sect all have god-transformation monks who have come to take charge. Anyway, the fight in Xihai Kingdom is quite fierce... He Jiugui and I are almost overwhelmed.”
Cui Daqi vomited his bitterness.
He is the minister of the Spiritual Food Department. There are frequent wars in the West Sea Kingdom, and the spiritual food supply is increasing. The sect naturally requires more tasks from him.
So he has been under a lot of pressure recently.
Wang Yan felt quite ashamed when he heard Cui Daqi's complaints.
As the deputy minister, he is almost always the boss, and the time he actually spends in the spiritual food department is very few.
Fortunately, Ma Shengxu opened his mouth and got him out of the way in time:
“This sect meeting, in addition to the position of deputy master of the Diwu Hall, is probably about the sect’s relocation. ...Thinking about it this way, the things that the deputy head of the Diwu Palace will do may be even worse than before. "More."
Qi Rulian didn't care and said:
"If it's really so troublesome, I won't do it."
"Don't worry about the resources for cultivation. My Taoist heart.”
"Ha, you make it sound like you can become one if you want."
Ma Shengxu immediately retorted.
Although the friendship between the twenty-five ministers may not be very good, they are still quite familiar with each other.
It was a bit of a joke, but no one took it seriously.
Qi Rulian just snorted casually:
"Let me ask, who in our Five Elements Department can beat me in a fight?"
"It's useless to know how to fight. This is the deputy head of the Diwu Palace, not the Tianyuan Palace."
< br>A female voice came.
Wang Hao looked at the sound, a smile appeared on his face, and he raised his hand slightly:
"Wang Hao has met Minister Luo."
"You are very polite, Protector You. I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you still have the 'Zhuyan Jade Liquid' in stock?"
The visitor is Luo Yanshuang, the Minister of Haizhu Department. He is dressed in Taoist robes. He is plain and thin, but his face is radiant and energetic. Yiyi.
Seeing Wang Yan, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but speak.
"The materials haven't arrived yet. Once they are ready, Wang Hao will give them to me with both hands as soon as possible."
Wang Hao said with a look of shame on his face.
The so-called ‘Zhuyan Jade Liquid’ is actually the third-order Phoenix Feather Chicken Essence, but it has just been renamed.
Now Feng Feather Chicken has gradually formed a scale, but because Wang Yan was out before and had no intention of refining it, he really didn’t have it on hand.
Although Luo Yanshuang was a little disappointed, she did not show it. She just smiled and said:
"Then I will wait for the good news from the right protector."
Qi Rulian opened his mouth when he saw it. The person who mocked him turned out to be Luo Yanshuang, which didn't make him angry.
Just snorted.
After a while, some other ministers who Wang Yan was somewhat familiar with arrived one after another.
Seeing Wang Yan, they all came over enthusiastically.
Although Wang Yan is not a good dancer or a well-rounded person, he is quite popular among these ministers.
I greeted every minister so that no one would be left out in the cold.
Even Chen Huaixuan, the head of the Poison Department, who had some conflicts with him before, nodded to Wang Yan without leaving any trace.
Wang Yan also smiled and nodded.
Of course, in addition to these ministers, he also saw some senior guardians in the Diwu Palace.
"Hey, Master Qushan is here too?"
Wang Yan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw a familiar figure flying towards him wearing a black gold cloak.
Cui Daqi on the side heard the words and explained in a low voice:
"The Lord of Sishan Mountain is a strong competitor for the deputy master of the Third Palace. Guan Ao, the former deputy master of Tianyuan Palace who has fallen before, is also the master of Sun Mountain. Mountain Lord. However, the Mountain Lord of Shaoyin Mountain is somewhat special. He controls punishments, rewards and punishments. , both obey the Hall of Rende and are directly driven by the sect master. Generally speaking, they will not concurrently hold the position of deputy hall master. Instead, they will be directly removed from the position of Shaoyin Mountain master and become deputy hall master. For example, the former Shaoyin Mountain master Lu Shanzhu That’s it.”
After thinking about it, he added.
"Of course, it's just average. There have been examples of concurrent roles before."
Wang Yan suddenly understood.
At this time, the master of Shaoyin Mountain used his supernatural powers and fell straight down.
However, the strange thing is that no one is close to him.
Wang Yan was slightly confused.
On the contrary, Qu Shentong's eyes lit up when he saw Wang Yan, and he was about to raise his hand to say hello, but suddenly he seemed to think of something again, his face was slightly dull, and the hand he was about to raise dropped again.
Although Wang Yan felt confused, he never ignored others, so he quickly smiled from a distance and said:
"Uncle Qu, are you okay?"
Hearing Wang Yan's greeting.
Some of the monks around who were not familiar with Wang Yan could not help but look at Wang Yan with strange expressions on their faces.
Even Cui Daqi, Ma Shengxu and others beside Wang Hao also changed their expressions slightly.
The same is true for Qu Shentong.
There was a trace of astonishment on his face, but a smile soon appeared on his face.
He nodded slightly:
"You're fine."
After that, he motioned to the main hall of Chunyang Palace and walked in first.
After he left, Wang Yan softly asked Cui Daqi and others:
"Uncle Master, why don't people seem to be willing to contact Master Qu?"
He is not a stupid person. The looks of the people around him and their attitude towards Qu Shentong are all too obvious. Abnormalities can be seen.
This time it was Ma Shengxu who spoke and said through the voice:
“It’s not that you don’t want to be contacted...You, Uncle Qu, are stubborn. No matter what time, you refuse to change your words to the acting sect leader. , has always been called the elders, everyone doesn’t care in private, but in front of this Chunyang Palace, who dares to get close to him?”
“Especially our acting sect leader, with such an evil mind? It’s really…”
The words were not finished.
But Wang Yan already understood what he meant.
Reminiscent of when they were in Sen Country, Master Lingweizi and Master Hu Zaixi mentioned that they were assigned tasks on the spot because Master Hu was grinning.
Wang Yan suddenly had a better understanding of the character of the acting sect leader.
“Narrow-minded, very cold, and extremely goal-oriented. I don’t care about the life or death of the people below. I only care about having more gods in the sect...”
It didn't take long.
Song Dongyang, the outgoing deputy head of the Diwu Palace, took off the fairy crane robe of the Diwu Palace and came out wearing a simple plain robe.
On the side, Luo Yuzhong, the deputy master of Rende Hall, wearing an auspicious cloud green robe, walked with him.
The two of them didn’t know what they were talking about, and they kept laughing.
"...If I knew that you were in Fu country at that time, I would have asked you to come with me to seize that opportunity at any cost!"
"I'm on a mission and I'm busy recruiting people, but there's really nothing I can do."
Luo Yuzhong shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Seeing Song Dongyang's arrival, the ministers and guardians who had already arrived saluted Song Dongyang one after another.
After all, Song Dongyang is still nominally the boss of each minister.
"You're welcome, Dongyang has worked with all the brothers and sisters for many years. Thanks to your support, Dongyang can be considered as retired with no regrets." Song Dongyang glanced at everyone and then said with emotion.
No one dared to say anything.
Song Dongyang smiled, then looked at Wang Ba, and didn’t know what he thought of. He raised his right hand slightly, towards Wang Ba, and said to Luo Yuzhong:
“This is me. The right protector of the Diwu Palace, he helped me a lot..."
Luo Yuzhong laughed:
"How can I not know this person?"
"Senior Brother Yao's disciple!"
"When he participated in the sect's examination, I was in charge."
Wang Hao also quickly saluted Luo Yuzhong.
“Wang Ba has met Deputy Hall Master Luo.”
The other party's words reminded him of the worry and fear he felt when he heard the name Luo Yuzhong when he first participated in the sect's assessment.
After all, what Master Yao Wudi said is quite scary.
Why are you playing with some junior brothers, and you are a little too harsh...
However, after joining the sect, he did not find that anyone was really targeting him.
Even if the relationship is not good with Chi Liequan.
Although he was quite disgusted with himself, he didn't go out of his way to cause trouble.
Whether it is out of fear of the sect's rules or for some other reason, Wang Yan sincerely feels that the Wanxiang Sect is his favorite environment.
Just thinking about it.
There are two more figures flying from the horizon.
Wang Yan glanced at him and found that he was indeed very familiar.
"I have met Elder Du."
"I have met Uncle Qi."
Everyone also saluted one of the two figures.
Also includes Song Dongyang and Luo Yuzhong.
No matter how high the deputy hall master is, if he has not yet become a god, he will still be inferior to him.
But Du Wei had a kind personality and smiled and nodded to everyone.
But when I saw Wang Yan, my eyes were filled with relief and regret.
I couldn't help but glare at Qi Yan who was standing next to him and completely shut up.
He then shook his head and said:
"Why are you all standing outside? Let's go, don't keep the acting sect leader waiting."
After that, he walked towards the main hall first.
Everyone's face was full of smiles, and they followed suit one after another, but most of them were reluctant in their hearts.
Different from Sect Master Shao who governed by inaction, this acting Sect Master was vigorous and resolute, and his emotions and anger were hard to fathom, which made people feel quite stressed.
So no one wants to go in unless they have no choice.
But when the elder spoke, no one dared to refuse to give him face.
Wang Ba also followed the others and walked in.
This is his third time here.
The previous two hosts were the very kind-looking Master Shao.
But this time, it was the acting patriarch, Elder Xun.
The main hall seems to be able to adjust the size according to the owner's wishes. Compared with the last time I came here, the main hall is slightly smaller.
A moon-white figure sat on a high platform at the front of the hall.
A censer in front of me was sending up straight green smoke.
He sat with his eyes closed, as if he was practicing and thinking.
It is Xun Fujun, the current acting sect leader of Wanxiang Sect.
Wang Yan did not dare to make any movement.
He followed everyone and found a futon to sit down one by one.
Uncle Hu’s example is a reminder, and he does not dare to make the same mistake again.
After a while, the futons in the hall were almost full.
"Tianqi, is it almost done?"
Xun Fujun slowly opened his eyes, looked around at the people below, and then said softly.
"Back to the sect master, except for Elder Ji Ying who has something to do and has no time to come, everyone has already come."
A young and handsome monk who looked about twenty years old but had a high-spirited aura stood up and walked in front of everyone. , replied respectfully.
"This is Zhou Tianqi, the third true biography."
Cui Daqi on the side said.
Wang Yan nodded.
"Since I have something to do, forget it. The other elders and palace masters who are in the sect are all here."
Xun Fujun looked around at the people below and said in a calm tone: "Tianqi, please tell everyone A few things to discuss this time.”
“Yes, Sect Master.”
The young monk seemed to have been prepared, and then faced everyone, his tone was quite polite:
“Everyone, there are three items this time. Things need to be decided.”
"First, not long ago, Sect Master Shao sent a letter saying that the treasure raft was making great progress... We must prepare all kinds of materials earlier."
"The second is an old problem. The thirty million Qi survivors brought back by the Song Palace Master from the Chen Kingdom were originally planned to be handed over to the Qin family for management. However, the Qin family declined the matter. How to deal with these thirty million people? Tens of thousands of remaining people also need a charter..."
"Finally, Deputy Hall Master Song of the Diwu Hall is about to step down, but now we need to discuss a new candidate together. After all, once the treasure raft for overcoming the tribulation is built, The resources mobilized are unimaginable, and the burden on the deputy master of the Diwu Palace will probably be heavy."
Zhou Tianqi finished his words.
In the crowd below, Wang Hao's heart moved.
Thirty million mortals?
It hasn’t been solved yet?
Is it difficult?
However, he soon noticed that no one spoke, down to a handful of Jindan monks, up to the masters of the three halls and several elders.
The entire hall was so quiet that it was embarrassing.
Xun Fujun glanced at everyone, tapped his fingers, and then said:
"Let's start from the first thing. What do you think?"
Sitting there, Xun Fujun didn't Kui, the chairman of the Diwu Palace in the distance, suddenly said:
“After the Tribulation Raft is built, we need to first confirm that the raft is ready. The number of people, their respective cultivation levels, the resources needed, as well as the materials needed for the planting of various spiritual plants, the raising of spiritual beasts, spiritual mines, alchemy and other skills after taking off..."
Xi After all, Kui has been at the helm of the Diwu Palace for many years. Although he has not personally taken charge of it for a long time, he still knows the material arrangements for the Tribulation Raft.
After hearing this, Mr. Xunfu nodded slightly.
"What the Master Xi said is right. After the deputy master of the Diwu Palace is confirmed, Palace Master Xi still needs to give more advice, and the sect will try its best to cooperate with your Diwu Palace."
"Yes, don't worry, Sect Master."
Xi Kui said quickly.
Seeing that the first matter was resolved so quickly, Xun Fujun had a rare smile on his face.
"The second thing is, what can you do for these thirty million mortals?"
No one responded.
Mr. Xunfu couldn't help but look at Fei Hua, the master of Rende Hall.
But I saw that the other party looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and he had no intention of speaking at all.
His expression remained unchanged, and then he looked at Xi Kui again.
Xi Kui looked helpless.
For mortals, it may be a great treasure for the Demon Sect or the Incense Sect.
But for them, apart from providing new disciples, it really has no value.
On the contrary, this will involve a lot of energy.
After all, thirty million people is not a small number.
Because of this, no one wanted to pick up this hot potato.
Below.
Only Wang Yan is full of joy at this moment.
He wants this hot potato! (End of this chapter)
