Chapter 1953 Elder Gong
In the days since he became an inner disciple, Xu Yi didn't even look at the faces of the big shots in the Xuanqing Sect.
Even, so far, he has only met the real Chi Huo.
There was no way, the elders were not laymen, and they were too lazy to take part in secular affairs, so they handed over all matters to their emissaries, who in turn sent out chief officials.
As for the transfer of skills, there is a transfer hall, and each inner disciple can choose the exercises inside, but he is only allowed to choose one type at a time. After he is successful in practice and passes the verification, he is allowed to practice another type.
These trivial matters are still handled by internal envoys.
The elders didn't even show up when it came to passing on the skills. It was not surprising that Xu Yi couldn't see the big shots of the Xuanqing Sect.
Xu Yi felt that such a unique and loose sect was very good. This way it gave the monks the artistic conception of pure cultivation and inaction.
Xu Yicai had heard about the news of the Heaven Praying Ceremony when he first started. He didn't take it seriously at first, but now after hearing the introduction from Huangzu, he suddenly realized that it was of great significance.
After all, this is a perfect opportunity to meet a big figure in the whole faction.
Especially the headmaster, Hongdao, is said to be a monk in the calamity period.
He has already seen spiritual root stage monks. The great power of the calamity period has never been seen.
He was quite eager in his heart.
"Master Qi, I have a visitor coming back to Xuefeng."
An attendant in green clothes came from afar to report.
Xu Yi's eyes lit up, "Please!"
After half a stick of incense, Xu Yi arrived at Xuefeng, and Zhao Neisheng greeted him from afar, "Brother Xu Dao, are you still used to the life of the inner sect?"
Xu Yi smiled and said, "Since the time when I competed with my disciples, I have been stronger than anyone in my generation. Today, Xu will never dare to forget Brother Zhao's kindness."
This time, Zhao's emissary took the initiative to invite him, which was the result of Xu Yi's hard work during this period.
He has recently become an inner disciple and caused trouble for Qin's inner envoy. It is most undesirable to practice behind closed doors.
The top priority is nothing else but building connections.
Xu Yi had just arrived, and he had no direct relationship with the upper management. The indirect relationship could barely connect the two of them.
These two people were Zhao Neishi and Fang Neishi.
In contrast, Fang's envoy was once in the palace, and his fight with Qin's envoy was even more fierce.
Logically speaking, Xu Yi should be the internal envoy of the DPRK to work hard.
In the end, Xu Yi's main focus was on Zhao Neishang. Of course, he did not abandon Fang Neishang and worked hard to maintain contact.
The key to this choice lies in the difference in character between Zhao and Fang.
The envoy in Fang is cunning in nature, while the envoy in Zhao is generous.
This was Xu Yi's judgment based on the reactions of the two people in the palace that day.
Even if a generous person is difficult to deal with, at least he will not have ulterior motives, making you constantly wonder whether there is any malice behind his good intentions; you will constantly doubt whether the information he gives is true or false.
In this situation, Xu Yi would naturally rather seek stability than take risks.
During this period of time, Xu Yi racked his brains in order to establish a good relationship with the envoy Zhao. At first, he focused his efforts on the envoy Zhao, but he did not expect that he could not open up the situation for a long time. The envoy Zhao was extremely cautious and did not care about it at all. Give him any opportunity he can take advantage of.
Xu Yi was puzzled, but it was Huang Zu who figured out the key. According to Huang Zu, Xu Yi had not found the key right from the beginning.
Judging from the character of Zhao Neishi, he is more cautious than aggressive. However, if this person can be reused by the superiors, he must have merits. It can be imagined that he is a loyal and upright person who is used to do his job.
As long as we grasp this point, we may be able to start with the people behind Zhao's envoy.
Huang Zu is a good expert in investigating information, and he has found out that Zhao Neishi is working under Gong Changlao.
Xu Yi spent 300 yuan of pills and asked Huangzu to go to great lengths to purchase a soul-cleansing grass and presented it to Zhao's envoy. He said that he had admired Gong Changlao for a long time and was specially filial to him.
After several tests, no matter how slow Zhao Neishang was, he knew that Xu Yi wanted to have a good relationship with him.
He knew that the karma on Xu Yi's body was heavy and he should not get too close, but he was optimistic about Xu Yi's future and did not want to offend him. He only interacted with Xu Yi politely and would never benefit from him.
He had declined Xu Yi's gifts several times before, but this time, Xu Yi made trouble for Elder Gong, and he couldn't refuse.
What's more, the soul-cleansing grass given by Xu Yi was really a great gift, and he also knew that Elder Gong was collecting a batch of precious herbs recently, including this soul-cleansing grass.
If he delivers it, Elder Gong will definitely be happy, and he will be able to gain a lot of favor in front of Elder Gong.
At that time, Zhao's emissary accepted it, but said that it depends on the elder's wishes. If the elder does not accept it, he will definitely return it.
If it is accepted, there will be news, so Xu Yi can wait quietly.
Unexpectedly, today, I received an invitation from the envoy Zhao. After the two of them met, the envoy Zhao said that it was Elder Gong who invited them.
Xu Yi felt happy and secretly thought that Lao Huang was getting more and more slippery. Some things were actually clearer than he could see.
Xu Yi didn't know that Huangzu's position was similar to that of Zhao Neiji to some extent. From this perspective, Xu Yi was not the authority, he was the authority. He knew better how people like them would act. think.
If he was being solicited by someone else, he would be more worried about whether it would cause trouble for Xu Yi.
But if the people who win over him ask him to forward gifts to Xu Yi, he will probably have to let Xu Yi make his own decision.
The same reasoning should not be surprising at all when it comes to Zhao Neishi.
Xu Yi met Elder Gong in the back mountain. An old man with a gentle demeanor was sitting on a big tree stump in front of the hut. Next to him was a large porcelain bowl and a large teapot. He looked at Xu Yi with a smile and said, "Listen to Zhao." C said, you gave him gifts several times, trying to find a way to make friends with him, but now you have sent the soul-cleansing grass, but I can’t refuse it. Since Gong accepted your grass, I have to meet you."
"But there are some words to say up front. This is not a relationship, but a transaction, a transaction with a clear price."
The so-called Tao Yuan is a special relationship between an elder and an inner sect disciple. When a Tao Yuan is formed, there is a sense of preaching and solving doubts. After a few years, if the elders feel that they are in agreement, they can often turn the Tao Yuan into a real relationship. Master-disciple relationship.
The master-disciple status in today's cultivation world is very important and very prudent.
Because monks have different talents, it is common for apprentices to surpass their masters in cultivation.
However, in the world of cultivation, facts speak for themselves, and strength and seniority are used to determine seniority.
Once the junior surpasses the senior, they become peers.
But a true master-disciple will not be like this. Once the title is determined, it is almost lifelong.
Although there is a layer of great realm between the inner disciples and the elders, there is actually only a thin layer of thin film between them. Once pierced, the inner disciples can immediately become spiritual root disciples.
At that time, inner disciples were almost automatically promoted to the position of elder, and then the status of master and disciple would be embarrassing.
In order to avoid this embarrassment, we formed a knot.
Once the inner sect disciples really break through, the two sides will naturally not talk about the master-disciple argument. However, because of the predestined relationship, the elders actually have the grace to preach and resolve doubts to the inner sect disciples before they have made a breakthrough, so the relationship between them will be the same. With this, the inner sect disciples after the breakthrough will also have great respect for the elders who preach to them and resolve their doubts, and are often extremely polite.
