Chapter 331

~16 min read 3,020 words

Tan Wenbin took Xu Ming and Chen Jing up the mountain.

Although he knew in his heart that Brother Xiaoyuan wouldn't do anything he wasn't sure about, and Zhao Yi also provided a reassurance on the phone, Tan Wenbin didn't dare to delay at all on the way.

Xu Ming and Chen Jing were even more active than Tan Wenbin; they kept Zhao Yi's instructions in mind and wanted to seize the opportunity to perform well.

But the three of them hurried, yet still arrived late.

On the road from the first platform to the front of the main hall, many corpses of different shapes were hung, and none of them were complete.

Because when they were fighting earlier, the Yin Shen were all in the stone statues; the statues were burly, and their fists were big and rough, so the result of the fighting certainly wouldn't look good.

Runsheng was carrying a headless lion on his shoulder, holding a large bamboo basket found on the mountain, and was rummaging through the corpses, throwing the animal corpses into the bamboo basket.

Chen Jing: "Brother Runsheng!"

Runsheng raised his head and looked at him, directly handing a basket of animal corpses to Chen Jing:

"You eat."

Chen Jing swallowed his saliva and forgot to reach out to take it for a while.

Runsheng: "Don't know how to eat."

Chen Jing: "Brother Yi taught me the method of extracting essence blood from monster corpses."

In previous experiments, they would collect some blood from the pets left by Sun Yan, get a small bowl, place it in front of Chen Jing, and then let Chen Jing extract and absorb it.

Up to now, he hadn't properly extracted it from a monster corpse, not to mention that in this bamboo basket, most of the corpses didn't have a beast shape, and some were even mixed together.

Xu Ming walked over and took a look, saying: "This is a bit difficult for A Jing; he needs to distinguish them first, then clean them, and then classify them..."

Xu Ming hadn't participated in the previous two waves either; he was arranged by Zhao Yi to take care of and cultivate Chen Jing, so he naturally had a very clear understanding of Chen Jing's current state and ability.

Runsheng handed the bamboo basket to Xu Ming; Xu Ming reached out to take it, and then Runsheng threw the lion onto Xu Ming. Xu Ming used his head to support it, and it just happened that his head passed through the broken lion body, sticking out from the neck, looking like he was wearing a lion skin suit from an amusement park, just a bit too bloody.

Shaking off the blood stains in his hands, Runsheng looked at Chen Jing without speaking.

The prey was already served on the table, but he was disgusted by it, messy, and hard to swallow.

Runsheng, who had known to cherish food since he was young, didn't like this kind of behavior.

Tan Wenbin walked over, took a look at the lion clothes on Xu Ming, and asked:

"Where is the head?"

Runsheng: "Smashed."

Tan Wenbin: "That's a pity."

Runsheng: "It's not a monkey, can't make monkey brains."

Tan Wenbin: "Can make lion heads, absolutely authentic."

Runsheng was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Right, I forgot."

Xu Ming smelled the lion on his body; first he showed surprise, then expressed joy, excitedly saying: "This lion is extraordinary..."

Tan Wenbin patted Xu Ming on the shoulder: "Then help A Jing absorb it early; you can be aggressive, don't worry about problems, although the outer team isn't here, the main team is here."

Xu Ming didn't refute and said directly: "Okay."

Tan Wenbin and Runsheng walked inside together.

"Runsheng, the process went smoothly, right?"

"Mm, not good at fighting."

Tan Wenbin could tell that Runsheng was still a bit unsatisfied.

The youth sat on the steps below the main hall, holding a can of Jianlibao in his hand.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, Xu Ming is already helping Chen Jing 'eat'."

Li Zhuiyuan nodded and pointed to the main hall behind him: "Brother Binbin, you've worked hard."

"Heh." Tan Wenbin rubbed his hands excitedly, "This is my favorite part."

Tan Wenbin passed by the youth and walked to the threshold of the main hall.

First he straightened his clothes, then his eyes narrowed, revealing snake pupils, majesty revealed; between his gestures, there was a wisp of green ox qi flowing, standing solemnly.

When he stepped over the threshold, the corners of his mouth even brought a gentle and dignified smile.

Inside the main hall, the weak lamp flames swayed with Tan Wenbin's footsteps.

The surrender had already been made, and everyone's "rebellion" earlier could also be considered a kind of certificate of surrender.

But the new order and new operation system of the Guanjiang Shou still needed to be discussed from scratch, no, it was to be promulgated.

This was a matter related to everyone's future development, and no Yin Shen could not care.

Tan Wenbin didn't rush to greet the Yin Shen, but walked straight to the Bodhisattva's golden body.

This Bodhisattva was solemn in appearance and kind-hearted, just a bit "Bai-like."

Tan Wenbin knew that Brother Xiaoyuan hadn't communicated with Sun Baishen in advance, but there was a natural tacit understanding between the two sides.

To describe it more specifically, it was completely in line with the common interests of both sides.

Tan Wenbin lit the incense, bowed three times, and finally inserted the three broken incense sticks into the incense burner in front of the golden body.

Immediately after, Tan Wenbin turned around and looked at the statues hanging in front.

"Everyone..."

Inside the main hall, it was silent for a moment, and invisible gazes fell on Tan Wenbin collectively.

Tan Wenbin took out a folded book from his bosom:

"Without rules, there is no square; I will emphasize the places that need to be changed, and those that can be maintained unchanged must be reiterated.

Logically speaking, after the new regulations are set, we should catch a few typical examples of those who broke the rules and punish them severely.

I also didn't think about being unconventional, and I will definitely try to pick bones from eggs.

I hope everyone is careful.

Alright, now I will go through the new regulations with everyone one by one.

If everyone feels there is no problem, then we will quickly enter the next one;

If there is any clause that makes everyone feel there is an objection, please don't hide it, please boldly put it forward, and we will modify it after gathering wisdom.

Then, those who put forward objections can...

Die."

Tan Wenbin flicked his palm, and the folded book opened; it didn't stop after landing with a "clatter," but continued to extend forward, pulling very, very long.

This reading lasted until dusk.

There were many rules, and they were very detailed; although it was organized by Tan Wenbin himself, it also condensed Lin Shu You's wisdom.

However, as long as the merit distribution in the general direction increased, these Yin Shen didn't care about the increase in rules.

Moreover, after reading the rules, Tan Wenbin added a "Future Outlook."

It wasn't aimless or drawing cakes at will; the Yin Shen present were all existences that had existed for a long time, and they also knew clearly that according to the current new model, as long as they didn't encounter accidents that were forcibly interrupted by external forces, then the next few decades would be the vigorous development period of the Guanjiang Shou.

Current interests plus long-term prospects, this set of combinations was enough to win the hearts of this group of Yin Shen.

No matter which force they surrendered to, it was impossible to offer such attractive conditions.

Because Li Zhuiyuan didn't intend to extract benefits from here at all, but instead helped them push down the former Bodhisattva and replace him with a "new Bodhisattva" who believed that merit shouldn't be handed over.

The reason why the youth took action to rectify the Guanjiang Shou,

One was that he needed the two generals of Increase and Decrease to work part-time for him,

The second was to reward Lin Shu You, who had been diligent and conscientious all along.

Of course, two more ethereal reasons could be added:

One was to strike at the Bodhisattva's forces, which was in line with the interests of the Heavenly Dao and the Great Emperor, not to mention that the Bodhisattva had once plotted against him;

The other was that Li Zhuiyuan didn't like the phenomenon of Yin Shen not treating spirit mediums as people from the beginning.

Tan Wenbin folded the book and patted it on his palm; with a "slap," it actually produced the effect of a gavel.

He then took the opportunity to make a joke:

"Alright, court dismissed."

"Thump, thump, thump!"

"Thump, thump, thump!"

The statues collectively made neat movements.

They had already realized that the youth was an existence that couldn't be disobeyed, and the one in front of them was the person who actually controlled their future encounters.

Therefore, I don't know which Yin Shen with more preserved past memories started the tone first, and then the Yin Shen followed:

"Might~~~ Martial~~~"

"Might~~~ Martial~~~"

Tan Wenbin smiled.

When you become more and more powerful, you will find that everyone you meet is a cute person, or even a cute god.

This scene, combined with the arrogance of the boy when he first saw the Guanjiang Shou, made him suddenly realize that everyone had followed Brother Xiaoyuan and walked such a long way.

Turning around, walking down the stairs, and arriving under the main hall.

Tan Wenbin deliberately didn't go to untie the "loyal generals" imprisoned here earlier; after all, things had to be arranged one by one.

The people imprisoned here noticed the drastic changes above, and after waiting for a long time, they finally waited for the new "person in charge" to appear.

Tan Wenbin brought a chair, sat down, continued to let them maintain the state of "prisoners," and talked with them.

The old temple would next eliminate the influence on the secular Guanjiang Shou temple, and from the original "ancestral court," it would be downgraded to a Guanjiang Shou children's palace specifically responsible for the cultivation of young spirit mediums.

In addition, the Lin family would also move into the old temple, which could be considered as entering the master and becoming the core.

This was actually equivalent to the "Lin Family Temple" entering the big sect as a small sect; the "Lin Family Temple" wouldn't be dismantled, Chen Shoumen represented the secular Guanjiang Shou lineage, and the Lin family represented the ancestral court lineage, but both belonged to the Nantong faction behind them.

For the people imprisoned here, Tan Wenbin also showed great preferential treatment; those willing to stay in the old temple to manage it could stay, and those unwilling could go down the mountain to the secular world to open doors and build temples, and no one would stop them.

In the end, the vast majority of people chose to continue staying in the old temple, and a small number decided to go down the mountain.

It was just that there were no people who swore not to follow and wanted to resist to the death, because the Bodhisattva was still the Bodhisattva, and the Guanjiang Shou was still the Guanjiang Shou; as long as the surface face was still there, these "loyal generals" could also do self-comfort.

This was the advantage of holding righteousness, being able to transform and absorb the opponent's forces with the highest efficiency.

Unlike that idiot Di Ting, who had to press everyone's head to recognize a beast as the head.

After opening the cage and releasing the prisoners, Tan Wenbin came outside the hall.

After the things here were arranged, he still had to go to the Lin Family Temple to make another arrangement.

If you shout at the bow of the Long Wang boat, don't you have to do these things?

There was a sleeping bag outside; Brother Xiaoyuan should have slept here, but now he wasn't here.

Chen Jing ate the "mixed stew" and had problems.

The evil spirit before the monster died remained in the blood, and coupled with eating so mixedly, and there was that strong lion inside, it caused Chen Jing to... go into demonic possession when extracting essence blood to absorb.

Xu Ming placed his hands on Chen Jing's shoulders, and vines grew, binding and suppressing him.

Li Zhuiyuan placed his index and middle fingers together against Chen Jing's forehead.

It was just that kind of unconscious violence, which was not worth mentioning compared to the personality influence Li Zhuiyuan had endured before.

In the Zhao family ancestral house, Li Zhuiyuan successfully reversed the black book secret technique, and in this path, it could be considered completely opened up.

Chen Jing's current situation was extremely critical in the eyes of others, but in the youth's eyes, it was just right to collect some feed and throw it into the fish pond that had become cold after the last use.

Soon, Chen Jing's eyes returned to clarity.

"Thank you... Brother Yuan."

"It's okay, you continue to eat."

Xu Ming, who was standing behind, had undisguised shock on his face; since when could even such a dangerous and tricky thing as demonic possession be solved so lightly?

Chen Jing began to continue absorbing the monster essence blood; this time with Brother Yuan by his side, he didn't hold back anymore.

Next, every time Chen Jing began to show signs of demonic possession, Li Zhuiyuan would take action to take away that bit of feed.

By the way, he also observed Chen Jing.

It could be seen that Zhao Yi was really good to this child, and was really willing to spend a lot of money.

Zhao Yi built Chen Jing into a solid reservoir, just waiting for that wave in the Yu family to swallow a big one and fill this reservoir directly.

By then, his Zhao Yi's subordinates could possess a team cornerstone that chased Runsheng.

Zhao Yi didn't ignore the hidden dangers here; any method of gaining power quickly would have extremely terrible side effects.

Li Zhuiyuan suspected that Zhao Yi had counted on him taking action.

That guy had long been thinking of letting him wipe the butt for his "masterpiece."

Regarding this, Li Zhuiyuan wasn't angry.

He didn't like that kind of relationship that was too virtual; being able to continue to use each other was the real cornerstone of the stable relationship between the two sides.

Chen Jing finished absorbing and was covered in sweat.

Li Zhuiyuan looked at Xu Ming and said: "Alright, you take him back, let Zhao Yi be responsible for teaching him how to master the new power."

Xu Ming: "Okay. That... do I need my help to repair the damaged places here?"

Li Zhuiyuan: "No need."

Xu Ming: "Oh, then I'll take A Jing back."

Chen Jing was carried on Xu Ming's back.

He came in a hurry and left in a hurry; he really wanted to take away a cloud.

Li Zhuiyuan: "After returning to Nantong, I will hand a health-preserving sutra to Old Tian, and then let Old Tian pass it to you; that sutra is very suitable for you, and after practicing it to have an effect, it can make your vines have an extra effect of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the origin."

Xu Ming's footsteps paused, and then he showed great joy.

His positioning in the team was already very awkward; otherwise, he wouldn't have been arranged by Zhao Yi to take care of the child. After Chen Jing rose, he would completely lose his position.

Now Old Tian couldn't follow the team, so if he could change his profession, having both a certain defensive ability and being able to provide a certain treatment for his partners, his team status would become stable again.

"Thank you, thank you Young Master Li, thank you Brother Xiaoyuan."

In the world of rivers and lakes, preaching and teaching is a great kindness; it wouldn't be too much to kneel down and kowtow to thank him directly.

In fact, Xu Ming intended to put Chen Jing down and do this himself.

But after seeing the impatience revealed in the youth's eyes, he immediately stopped his movements and ran down the mountain with Chen Jing on his back.

Tan Wenbin: "The outer team is going to laugh their mouths open this time."

Li Zhuiyuan: "This is to prepare for going to the Yu family next."

Whether it was Chen Jing's improvement or Xu Ming's improvement, they would become the newly accumulated advantages of their side in that wave of the Yu family.

Thinking of the Yu family, that hand appeared in the youth's mind again.

Grandma Liu had told him that the top forces in the world of rivers and lakes were already preparing to take action against the Yu family, and the Heavenly Dao was accumulating momentum toward that side wave after wave.

Even the two generals of Increase and Decrease knew clearly that surrendering to the Yu family... would have no future.

But I don't know why, the youth felt a palpitation in his heart because of that hand.

He had a premonition that that wave of the Yu family wouldn't be so simple.

Tan Wenbin: "Brother Xiaoyuan, the things here are all handled; next, we should go to the Lin Family Temple."

Li Zhuiyuan:

"Mm, go to A You's house."

Because of Lin Shu You's return, the Lin Family Temple underwent earth-shaking changes; the new spirit-descending system, the Lin surname and the foreign surname, the merger of those three small temples, the winning over of other temples, etc., all these things were pressed on Lin Fu'an and Chen Shoumen.

Lin Fu'an was okay; since kowtowing to his grandson... True Lord, his injuries had been significantly relieved, so he could still support it.
