Zen Master Hui Zhao turned his back to the young novice monk and sighed, "It's not just you."
"Ah?" The young monk was a little confused.
"Among all the previous holders of the power of the 'Divine Eye', there is only one recorded case of someone being able to see the Venerable Arahant Kāśyapa in a predestined person."
Zen Master Huizhao paused, then said calmly, "And that man later became Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty."
"……what?"
……
at the same time.
After Chen Lusi watched Master Huizhao leave, he looked back at Xia Yue and asked, "When did you come back?"
"yesterday."
As Xia Yue answered, he walked into the pavilion and looked at the deep well inside.
The cat beside Chen Lusi seemed to be very interested as well. It rubbed Chen Lusi's trouser leg gently, then followed him into the pavilion, jumped onto the edge of the well, and then looked into the well.
When Chen Lusi saw the cat jump onto the edge of the well, he had no choice but to follow it and look into the well.
The two men and the cat watched the well like this.
Actually.
Although it is called a well, it is actually more like a deep passage. Because the opening is too small, it would be difficult for a cat to get into the well, let alone a person.
"Maybe this is fate."
Xia Yue looked at the well and suddenly smiled. "It was after I came to Jiming Temple and saw this well that I became truly well-known to the entire Enabler community. Now it's your turn."
Chen Lusi turned around and asked, "Me?"
Xia Yue didn't explain, but just withdrew his gaze and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work during this period."
"..."
Chen Lu thought for a moment and said, "If you really think I'm working too hard, transfer Lin Ying to my team. I don't want to drag this out for too long."
"Row."
Xia Yue nodded simply: "Lin Ying also told me about this, but I happened to encounter the monkey world at that time and missed it..."
Speaking of which.
He looked at Chen Lusi and suddenly smiled: "But is this all you ask?"
Chen Lusi replied seriously: "This is very important to me."
"understood."
Xia Yue looked at Chen Lusi carefully for a moment, then realized something and nodded slightly. Then he thought of his niece and sighed, "What a pity."
"Hmm?" Chen Lusi was a little confused.
"nothing."
Xia Yue didn't say anything nonsense, but directly changed the subject: "I have heard about what you have done recently. To be honest, it is really unexpected. I was going to look for you last night, but I was really afraid of hearing something shocking again, so I didn't go, but talked to Taishan instead.
Then I thought about it and roughly understood everything that happened during this period... Now, I want to ask, Chen Lusi, are you disappointed with Tiance Mansion?"
"..."
When Chen Lusi heard this question, he fell silent.
Disappointed?
To be honest, he was quite disappointed sometimes.
Because I feel that the Tian Ce Mansion is of no use at all. They are always a step behind in everything. Every time, it is my ego that strikes hard, and the Tian Ce Mansion just obeys and only comes to the scene after everything is settled.
If that's all, forget it.
There is also internal strife.
Compared with Yan Kan’s rebellion, what happened in the Monkey World is nothing to mention.
But after Ji Xin came to power, the situation improved a lot.
At least no accidents happened during the first riding incident. Even if he was not present and there was no weapon of heavenly punishment, Yu Zhou and Taishan would probably be able to handle it in the end.
And what happened in Jinling this time.
Although the ego still attacked with great force, the Tiance Mansion was submissive.
But after Chen Lusi read the history of the birth of "Jing", he could understand why Tian Ce Mansion was a step behind, and when the incident happened, Tian Ce Mansion's reaction was indeed not slow, and it was no longer like it did nothing.
At least they tried their best to do what they could, although "Zhan Mei" ultimately failed to destroy Jing's dream.
But Chen Lusi was able to turn the entire strange world upside down, so it is hard to say that it has nothing to do with the matter of killing the demon.
So back to the question just now, are you disappointed with Tiance Mansion?
It’s hard to say.
"understood."
Xia Yue saw Chen Lusi's expression and guessed what he was thinking. He smiled and said, "Let's put it aside for now."
Chen Lusi raised his head and asked, "What do you mean by put it aside for a while?"
"Let you become Tiance."
Xia Yue explained, "I think it's quite feasible. The Chamomile Alliance's 'Embassy' is about to arrive, and I plan to let you go to meet them with a resounding name. Others don't have much objection to this.
However...sitting in this position means taking on corresponding responsibilities.
You're good at everything, but you don't seem ready yet. Forcing yourself to do this might give you a resounding reputation, but it will also cause you trouble. After all, in this domestic circle of enablers, raising your status isn't really a good thing, and there's plenty of trouble... Perhaps when you take the initiative and say you want to take on the role of Tian Ce, then the time will come."
"Ah."
Chen Lusi nodded in agreement and continued, "However, I don't think that day will ever come. I have no interest in becoming a Tian Ce member. I've already encountered so many troubles as a member. I can't imagine what I'll encounter if I become one."
He really had no intention of becoming Tian Ce.
Because it doesn't seem to do any good.
He also has no interest in power.
"That's not necessarily the case."
Xia Yue smiled, then pointed at himself and said, "Who knows, one day you might take over my position."
"Take over from you? Then what are you going to do?"
"What if I die?"
"..."
"Don't disbelieve it, who knows when an accident will happen."
Xia Yue noticed Chen Lusi's expression, pointed at the cat standing at his feet, and said with a smile, "You just heard that old bald donkey saying it's impossible to change Jing's dream and bring Jing into reality. Then what is that thing standing at your feet now? So what's impossible?"
"..."
Chen Lusi shook his head as he looked at Xia Yue, who had been in the Yellow Springs for a month and was still safe and sound after coming out.
He didn't want to discuss such meaningless things.
Although he still has only a vague understanding of the mainstream of Huangquan.
But the general concept is still there.
Xia Yue's behavior was equivalent to running to the house of his "majestic old mother" and making trouble for a whole month, and nothing happened.
He really found it hard to imagine what else could lead to Xia Yue's death.
Chapter 221 Xia Yue’s Authority
221.
2023-11-16
"Then I guess Miss Si Yujie will take over by then."
Chen Lusi noticed that Xia Yue seemed to be discussing this topic very seriously, and felt that it would be bad not to reply, so he replied perfunctorily.
"she?"
When Xia Yue heard Chen Lusi talking about Xiaoxiao, he said helplessly, "She's not as good as Tang Yu. Although Tang Yu is a little silly, she really does take things seriously, and she's also easy to deceive... Xiaoxiao is not that kind of person. She's nice to the people around her, but if she expands the scope of her treatment, she'll become a nobody.
Unless everyone in the country becomes her daughter, she will probably be able to fish for the rest of her life. Most importantly, she is not easy to deceive. If Ji Xin wants to deal with her the same way she dealt with Tang Yu, Si Yujie will probably roll her eyes and turn away.
"……Yeah?"
Although Chen Lusi usually thinks Si Yujie is quite lazy, it’s not to that exaggerated, right?
"Ah."
Xia Yue seemed to be in high spirits. He sat down on the edge of the well and began to explain: "In fact, the few people left behind in the Third Brigade have some personality issues. Xiaoxiao is actually quite capable. After all, she has the power and ability, and she is very talented, but she just likes to be lazy too much.
If it weren't for the appearance of her daughter, Xiaoyan, she would probably still be hanging around in a small team. In fact, Tang Yu's position should have been hers, but she didn't want to, saying that she was not worthy of it. This made Tang Yu, who was canvassing for votes at the time, very embarrassed. In a fit of rage, he ran to duel with Xiaoxiao.
That's when the nickname "Xiaoxiao" became popular, because Si Yujie remained expressionless throughout the fight, and she completely outperformed Tang Yu in both combat power and intelligence. Tang Yu, frustrated at the loss, finally shouted, "Why don't you just smile?" Si Yujie then gave her a stiff smile, and from then on, they both became famous.
Chen Lusi: "..."
"As for Wu You, he wasn't actually from the Third Squadron before, but from the Eleventh Frontier Squadron. There was an accident at the time. I remember there were two waves of foreign empowerers attacking the border, and he simply abandoned his teammates and ran to stop them.
The charge was not over at that time, and there were only two enablers who got through, so his teammates felt that Wu You should help them first and then chase after those who had escaped. Wu You's actions were completely reckless, and caused a teammate to be seriously injured. He was also suspected of stealing the credit, and then they developed a rift.
In fact, the main reason is that his authority is too sensitive, and he can read other people's minds... Although he has explained many times that this is not mind reading, because authority is unique, many people still think that he can judge the opponent's attack, which is mind reading.
Everyone has secrets that they don't want others to know, and they naturally resist those with such authority and power.
The incident caused quite a big stir at the time, and the news that he could read minds also spread. He did not defend himself at the time, and I asked him privately why he abandoned his teammates. He said that it was what his mind told him.
It was then that I realized that if his power of authority wanted to reflect the voices of others, it first had to reflect his own... Simply put, his power of authority would tell him the "absolutely correct answer" within his cognitive range, and this answer would gradually strengthen over time, ultimately forcing him to act accordingly. He abandoned his teammates because his inner voice told him that they could handle the situation, but if those two empowerers actually crossed the border, the entire team would be punished. So he chose to pursue them.
After that incident, he always believed that his authority was a curse. With nowhere to go, he joined the Third Brigade and always wanted to change his values, maintain a nonchalant appearance, and act casually, trying to weaken the influence of his authority as much as possible, but the effect did not seem ideal in the end.
Because he left you behind during the kidnapping incident, he felt the curse was still there, and he was depressed for a while because of it."
Chen Lusi: "..."
"As for Xia Panqiu, you know her story. But before Lu Hao's rebellion, she was silly. Perhaps because of her young age, she was always eager to do something and was too impatient. Your appearance has completely changed her."
“…It’s true that everyone has their own story.”
After listening to Xia Yue's words, Chen Lusi thought of the people he had known the longest since joining Tiance Mansion, and felt a little emotional.
"right."
Xia Yue smiled and pointed at himself: "In fact, even I have personality problems. For example, Ji Xin has always criticized me for not using my brain and relying on my fists to solve all problems.
Therefore, everyone actually has problems. The key is not to focus on their shortcomings, but to see what they are suitable for and what they are not suitable for. For example, Xiaoxiao is definitely not suitable to be the Tiance, but if she is asked to slack off and take care of the children, there is no one more suitable than her, because she is strong enough and can be patient. If it is Tang Yu, she will probably run away with the child the next day.
The same goes for Wu You. Although he has his flaws, his naturally good manners allow him to blend in well with newcomers. Although his authority has many issues, he can still effectively act as a limiter at critical moments.
"Been taught a lesson."
Chen Lusi nodded, then asked doubtfully, "But why are you telling me this?"
"Let me give you some idea."
Xia Yue jumped off the edge of the well, then clapped his hands lightly and looked at the cat at his feet.
Chen Lu thought about it and understood.
Some helpless.
Xia Yue actually started to teach him what to do based on the possibility of his own death.
the other side.
Seeing that Chen Lusi still didn't believe it, Xia Yue shrugged his shoulders and said nothing more. Instead, he squatted down in front of the cat.
The white cat stood at Chen Lusi's feet. It was not afraid of strangers. Instead, it raised its head slightly and looked at Xia Yue.
"Can you return half of Jinling?"
Xia Yue looked at the cat and suddenly said in a negotiating tone, "Your owner will be in trouble if you do this. I don't want to hit the cat either."
