Chapter 118 Yulang takes action
"Everyone, be quiet!" Zhao Kun raised his hand to stop the noise.
Everyone knew that his status in the Taiping Religion was not low, and he was the clerk responsible for judging this competition, so they wisely kept their mouths shut.
Zhao Kun saw that everyone still gave him this face, so he knew that there was still room for negotiation on this matter, as long as he gave a condition that was beneficial to the contestants.
"I know your doubts. Since there are doubts about the competition between the Ten Guardians and Wang Jinlai, then this competition is invalid. No one wins or loses. Today, the Taiping Sect's selection of disciples is still five! The Taiping Sect's selection level treats everyone equally and is fair. Justice!" Zhao Kun raised his arms and shouted.
Everyone succeeded in their goal. Seeing that Zhao Kun agreed that the game was cancelled, they went down the slope and stopped pestering the Ten Guardians.
But the purpose of Uncle Liu and his party is more than that, and they will not be satisfied.
Yulang stood up and asked slowly: "Mr. Zhao, isn't this right? Is this game just invalid? The competition process of your Taiping Religion is extremely dangerous. First, a bloodthirsty and cruel man was crippled. The nine guardians of the contestant's hands, this is another unknown item used at this time The Ten Guardians who blasted the contestants into bloody pieces seemed to have stepped into the gate of hell with one foot in a selection competition. At worst, they lost their hands and feet, and at worst, they were killed. The Taiping Sect wanted to take ordinary people like us. To live forever together, or do you want to send us directly to Xitian?”
Zhao Kun moved his lips, but was stopped by Yulang before he could utter a rebuttal.
"Mr. Zhao, please don't try to prevaricate me by saying that you are just an ordinary clerk and can't take care of this. Regardless of whether you can take care of this matter or not, you must give me an explanation today." Yulang smiled, with gentle eyes, "If you can't give me an explanation, Speaking of which, I have to question the Taiping Religion’s purpose of setting up such a difficult competition level. Is it possible that they do it deliberately to let us retreat? I heard that in addition to attracting believers through three competitions, the Taiping Religion also recruits three people. Humanoid: a type of rich man The Taiping Religion is extremely harsh on ordinary people like us, but it has no other requirements for these three types of people, and there is no need to compete. Does the Taiping Religion only want to accept these people? The third type of people are afraid of being People are talking behind their backs, so they set up such difficult levels to fool ordinary people like us? Is the Taiping Sect’s so-called slogan of ‘Peace and prosperity, immortality’ just for these three types of people who want to be recruited?”
Zhao Kun saw this kind-hearted man pressing forward step by step, stirring up trouble with every word, but he refused to give in at all. He said: "Don't worry, Sir, our Taiping family has a great cause and strong strength. We can afford the elixir of immortality for tens of thousands of people. Our leader has been summoned to the palace to become a national teacher. This is the recognition of the leader. This is recognition of our Taiping Sect. As for Lang Jun’s question about why the levels set by the Taiping Sect are so difficult, it is because as a believer of the Taiping Sect, you need to help the sect collect precious medicinal materials, and you need to have a strong body, the courage to move forward, and the courage to move forward. You have to be lucky, that’s why we set up such a difficult level.”
Zhao Kun faced everyone, bowed and said: "I know that you are curious about the three levels the Taiping Religion has set up to select talents, and you also have some questions. Why is it so difficult? Why are so few people admitted? Is it because of the elixir of immortality? It is very difficult to make and requires a large amount of rare treasures and precious medicinal materials. Therefore, talents who can help the church obtain these medicinal materials are needed, which is why the three levels are set up with many difficulties.”
These words were reasonable and well-founded. Even though he was Yulang, he couldn't think of anything to refute, and he had no reason to refute.
Zhao Kun showed a faint sadness and said to everyone from the bottom of his heart: "Everyone, think about it, is this true? Although the Taiping Sect is a religion that wants to lead everyone to live forever, it has more than enough ambition but not enough power. With the leader and the rest of us, Meager strength cannot accomplish this great ideal, so it requires everyone's cooperation. However, collecting medicinal materials is not an easy task and requires talents with excellent conditions in all aspects. This is also for the safety of the believers."
Seeing everyone nodding in unison and affirming his words, Zhao Kun continued his efforts and brainwashed everyone: "As for the three types of people under the Taiping Sect that this man questioned, I will tolerate them. Let me explain to you slowly. The purpose of accepting these three types of people is to refine the elixir of life faster and better and help everyone live longer together. The first type of people are those who are rich and wealthy. They want to contribute their wealth. The second type of extremely evil people were sent to Longtan Tiger Cave to search for extremely rare and important medicinal materials. . So the Taiping Sect does not deliberately make things difficult for everyone. To a certain extent, it treats everyone equally." This statement does make some sense, and many people nodded in agreement.
Ji Yutang couldn't help but want to laugh. She pinched herself secretly to hold back her laughter. The Taiping Sect is obviously a cult that uses the religious belief of immortality to confuse its followers. It obviously wants to build a team to increase its own strength and seek the throne. How can it have such lofty ideals and ambitions? The reason why Zhao Kun spoke so impassionedly was just to excuse the Ten Guardians and manipulate the minds of the people.
After all, the people who suffer the most are the people. The country is prosperous and healthy, and the people are just living an ordinary life, but not all people can live a life without worries about food and clothing, and some are displaced. If the country is in turmoil, the people will suffer even more. For example, the Taiping Sect now has only one purpose in doing so many things, which is to turn the ignorant and obedient people into a knife that attacks the throne. Zhao Kun is currently maintaining this knife.
Ji Yutang quietly poked Xie Huaichu, and Xie Huaichu gently grabbed her finger with understanding. Ji Yutang turned his face away from Xie Huaichu and actually spoke to her from his heart: "What do you think the purpose of that Yulang is to incite the people?"
Xie Huaichu glanced at Yulang and thought: "He probably wants the Ten Guardians to compete with him again. The Ten Guardians have already consumed a lot of energy and will definitely not be able to survive the competition with Yulang. He can definitely win this one." quota.”
Ji Yutang felt that what Xie Huaichu said made sense, but something was wrong. She continued: "Yulang's idea is not clever, and many people have also seen this. If the Ten Guardians want to compete again, it will be equivalent to the Taiping Sect giving up a spot. Who can compete with the Ten Guardians? If the Ten Guardians agree, there will be many people rushing to compete with her. How can Yulang be sure that he can get this spot? "
Ji Yutang gestured to Xie Huaichu to look at Yulang's strong physique that could be seen through his coarse clothes: "You see, although his figure is slender, his forearms look very strong. He must be a practitioner. Others are not fools, it's impossible Watching Yulang take advantage of the opportunity.”
Xie Huai could not see through Yulang's thoughts at first, but he felt that Yulang must have an ulterior motive.
Zhao Kun has said so many words and has made people take his side.
Yulang was very calm, he said: "What Mr. Zhao said is absolutely true. The Taiping Sect treats everyone equally. It's just that I am narrow-minded."
