Chapter 934: Defeated

~8 min read 1,466 words

The noble ladies started with Jueneng's appearance and were loyal to his appearance! They generously opened their purses and publicly rewarded... donated sesame oil money.

From one hundred taels to one thousand taels, and even several thousand taels, it was all there.

A royal noble lady donated ten thousand taels of sesame oil money in one breath, instantly pushing the atmosphere of the scene to a new climax.

This made the men present feel very indignant, and they scolded one after another: "Superficial!"

How can you give away money just because the monk is handsome.

Absurd!

These women are all brainless.

Ridiculous!

What's even more excessive is Jixia Academy, as the organizer, not only did not stop this kind of situation, but actually indulged it, and even secretly encouraged it. Could it be that Jixia Academy can also take a cut of this sesame oil money?

Once they thought that Jixia Academy made ticket money and sesame oil money, everyone was even more indignant. Such a big business, actually wanting to eat alone, unreasonable!

There were already people who couldn't sit still, running to find the person in charge of Jixia Academy to negotiate, wanting to share a piece of the pie!

The steady people secretly sent people to investigate all aspects, just waiting for the scripture debate to end, and then they would settle the accounts after the autumn. Let Jixia Academy be proud for a while.

Jixia Academy is no longer the high-ranking academy it used to be. Many big shots in the imperial court present were planning to bite a piece of meat off the academy.

If Jixia Academy reopened the mountain gate silently, no one would care. But it was so high-profile, so don't blame everyone for staring at it, biting its meat, and drinking its blood.

If you want to return high-profile, you should pay the corresponding price.

Chen Guanlou didn't know the thoughts of these people, but judging by their expressions, he also knew they were planning and calculating.

Pure Yang Zhenren opened and closed, showing that there is no false scholar under the fame!

The monk Jueneng, with a calmness that did not match his age, was steady and steady, step by step. Regardless of the result, after today, he will be famous throughout the world. It is only a matter of time before he is enshrined by the royal family.

The noble ladies were fascinated and addicted to the monk.

The nobles were calculating various interests and planning benefits.

Only the true believers were addicted to the essence of the scriptures, listening to it in a trance. Some even knelt on the ground, crying bitterly, excited!

Chen Guanlou donated sesame oil money under a pseudonym to help Yuquan Palace and Pure Yang Zhenren.

These nobles, one by one, are rich, and when they are really on the list, they are not as good as the fighting power of the ladies. Look at those noble ladies, Baoguo Temple can be rich in just one day.

Can't let Baoguo Temple be beautiful alone!

Knowing the result, Chen Guanlou prepared to leave early.

Master Qi was slightly surprised. "Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen doesn't wait for the result?"

"I don't believe in Buddhism, nor do I believe in Daoism. No matter who wins or loses, it's just a temporary result. I have an appointment with someone, so I'll go first."

"Such a grand event, Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen is actually not interested, could it be that you only love women?"

Chen Guanlou laughed. "Is Master Qi caring about my private affairs now?"

"This old man is a senior, caring about the situation of the junior, which is reasonable." Master Qi said as a matter of course. He didn't suspect that this scripture debate had anything to do with Chen Guanlou.

He just had a hunch that leaving so hurriedly, without even looking at the result, could there be any shady dealings.

Must ask one or two.

"Boy is young, but doesn't understand respecting teachers and Dao. I heard that you have read books, is this how your teacher taught you?"

"Master Qi, don't rely on the old to sell the old, and teach people when you see them. I am not a student of Jixia Academy, you can't control me. Change the habit of being fond of being a teacher next time, it's really annoying."

Chen Guanlou didn't give the other party face anymore, and left straight away.

Master Qi narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. A moment later, he also left quietly.

After Chen Guanlou left Jixia Academy, he didn't rush back to the capital, but turned to Yuquan Palace as a guest. By the way, he shook off Master Qi, the follower.

He hid in the library.

By evening, the quiet Yuquan Palace suddenly became restless.

People are back!

Pure Yang Zhenren lost!

Lost very abruptly, beyond everyone's expectations.

Pure Yang Zhenren, who was originally fighting a smooth battle, or his Dao heart was unstable, in short, suddenly went into trouble, his Dao heart was damaged, and he lost completely. Everyone at the scene was in an uproar!

Those who set up the gambling stall were even more tongue-tied, wishing they could rush to the high platform and pinch the Zhenren's neck to tell him to cheer up.

Cheering up is impossible, it's impossible in this life.

Pure Yang Zhenren was almost carried back, too embarrassed.

The disciples and grandchildren of Yuquan Palace were all like mourning, at a loss. Lost very unwillingly!

How could such a big mistake happen at the critical moment, I can't figure it out.

Famous for decades, why would his Dao heart be damaged and go into trouble when fighting a smooth battle?

Too many questions.

Pure Yang Zhenren didn't say a word, used the excuse of recuperation, and sent everyone away.

Not long after, Chen Guanlou entered the room quietly. "How does Zhenren feel? Is there any damage?"

Pure Yang Zhenren got up from the bed and sat on the cushion. He invited the other party to sit down and talk.

"Alas! This poor Dao's life of fame is ruined."

"Compared with life, what is a life of fame. If you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about firewood. I left the scene early today, and I couldn't bear to see Zhenren lose. The more so, the more it can be trusted."

Pure Yang Zhenren frowned slightly, a hundred steps had already gone ninety-nine steps, regret does not exist, but there is still some unwillingness. Losing to a yellow-mouthed child, it is inevitable that the heart is not smooth.

"Zhenren, think about it. For the sake of a hundred years, what is the win or loss for a while. You have seen the scene today, no matter who wins or loses, the monk Jueneng will be famous throughout the world, and it cannot be stopped."

"Alas!"

Pure Yang Zhenren sighed. "To tell you the truth, little friend, this poor Dao's Dao heart was really unstable today. Although it didn't go into trouble, it was also barely supported. Next, I need to go into seclusion and practice."

"That's great!" Chen Guanlou was very appreciative. "The Emperor wants to calculate you, and after today's incident, it's definitely not going to work. It's even possible that Jueneng will replace your work and walk a few times for you in the palace.

At that time, the monk Jueneng will know that the palace is not so easy to enter, and the Emperor's work is not so easy to do. He will also be able to experience the pressure you bear. Maybe he will understand why you lost. But he will never reveal a single truth."

Pure Yang Zhenren was clearly comforted, laughed, and his mood relaxed. Thinking of the hot water and hot fire that the kid Jueneng was about to start, his mood improved.

"Thank you little friend for the comfort! This poor Dao was also possessed by demons before, and almost couldn't think it through. Thanks to you, this poor Dao avoided going into trouble. Thank you!"

"Zhenren is polite! These years, I have troubled you a lot. I should be the one to say thank you."

The two discussed the follow-up matters again, and until late at night, Chen Guanlou left in a hurry. ===== CHAPTER 935 =====

"Many thanks for your comfort, little friend! This Daoist was previously trapped in a demonic barrier and nearly couldn't see through it. Thanks to you being here, this Daoist avoided a deviation in cultivation. Many thanks!"

"You are too polite, Zhenren! Over these years, I have caused you much trouble. It should be me saying thanks."

After the two discussed subsequent matters, Chen Guanlou did not leave in a hurry until late at night.
