With thunderous means, Baimayuan mobilized the efforts of all parties to completely solve the problem of the Qionghe Department in just one and a half months. The most critical days did not exceed ten days, which was far beyond everyone's expectations.
After Longbai and Chama learned the news, waited, hesitated, discussed, and made conditions, the liaison personnel sent to Qionghe had no choice but to return as soon as they arrived at Haizi Mountain. The two tribes were greatly shocked by this order, and they called all their men back and put them on full alert.
At the same time, the two ministries sent envoys to Baima Court to ask for an audience with Zhao Ran, but Zhao Ran did not see them, and it was Yuan Hao from the prison who came forward.
Yuan Hao told them that this was a unilateral agreement between the Baima Court and the Qionghe Department. It was a win-win agreement reached by the Qionghe Department voluntarily and on the basis of mutual benefit. It was not aimed at a specific third party or anyone else. Please Longbai and Chama were assured that Baimayuan always abided by the agreement reached by the three ministries and Ming Dynasty and respected the autonomy of the three ministries.
When envoys from the Longbai and Chama tribes pointed out that the autonomy of the Qionghe tribe was no longer autonomy in the true sense, and asked Yuan Jianyuan to comment on this, Yuan Hao replied: "Autonomy includes large autonomy and small autonomy. There is also internal autonomy, as well as external autonomy. The specifics are just a matter of understanding its inner meaning, and there is no concern about whether it will be abolished. If there are differences between the Longbai Ministry and the Chama Ministry's understanding of autonomy and the White Horse Court, the White Horse Court welcomes both parties. The Ministry came to negotiate and discuss this issue.¡±
Zhao Ran paid close attention to the movements of the two departments in the White Horse Courtyard. When he found that the reactions of the two departments only stayed at verbal disputes, he knew that he had taken this step.
At this time, he received a flying talisman from his elder brother Wei Zhizhen, asking him to go back to the mountain, so he entrusted Yuan Hao to take care of the affairs and left Baimayuan.
Before returning to the mountain, he went to the Xiaojie Temple and asked someone to bring back Feng Tang, who was patrolling in Haizi Mountain.
"It's been half a year since I entered Taoism. How do you feel?"
Feng Tang thought for a while and replied: "I dare not say that I am familiar with it, but I can already complete my duties."
This answer is very honest, neither arrogant nor inferior. Zhao Ran is quite satisfied with it. In fact, what satisfied him the most was Feng Tang's performance during the three months in Xiaojie Temple, especially the last month or so when he got along with Zhang Wu, Jiang Zhuzi, and Iron Leg Long San. Although they didn't "get along well", they didn't get along well either. "Effects are like enemies."
It's normal that they can't get along harmoniously. Feng Tang has been imprisoned by them for so long. It's not easy to open the knot in his heart, but it's not easy without them being enemies. Zhao Ran also heard that Feng Tang He was very grateful for saving Jiang Zhuzi's life.
So Zhao Ran stopped talking nonsense and said, "Have you read carefully all the Taoist scriptures I asked you to read?"
Feng Tang said: "I have loved reading Taoist scriptures since I was a child. After I joined the army, I read less and had no chance to read them. But the abbot asked me to pick them up and read them again in the past six months. Now I have memorized them by heart. Abbot Do you want to test me?"
Zhao Ran said: "As long as you memorize it, I won't test you. Whether your homework is solid or not is related to your future practice. This is your own business, not mine."
Feng Tang nodded: "What the abbot said is right" Just as he said this, he suddenly woke up and breathed quickly: "Abbott you just said practice?"
Zhao Ran smiled: "I promised you back then that as long as you can live, you can come back to me. If you don't have the qualifications and skills, I will work in the jungle of Shifang. If you have the qualifications and skills, I will take you to practice. In the past six months, I I have also seen your performance, and it seems that you are generally upright and have good qualifications, so I would like to ask you if you are willing to enter the tower to study Taoism?"
Feng Tang's blood immediately surged up, and his whole face turned red from suppressing it. He seemed to be drunk for an instant. He swayed on the spot three times, and then fell to the ground: "Disciple is willing, Teacher is here, please accept my three bows!" "
Zhao Ran quickly helped him up: "Don't worship me. I usually don't have time to teach my disciples. This time you follow me back to Maharaja Mountain. After entering the tower, worship under my senior brother. From now on, you will call me junior uncle." That¡¯s it.¡±
Feng Tang was surprised and said: "Teacher introduced me, why don't you want to accept a disciple as your disciple? Is it because the disciple didn't do something well?"
Zhao Ran explained: "You will know when you enter Louguan in the future. Of the four senior brothers of my generation, the eldest brother is the best at teaching the Dharma. The second senior brother, third senior brother and I are usually given guidance by the eldest brother. It would be me who would not teach." I am willing to accept you, but it is actually for your own good. You also have a senior brother named Qu Fenghe, who was also introduced to me by me, and he also studied under my senior brother."
Feng Tang didn¡¯t know what to say for a while, so he followed Zhao Ran into Dajun Mountain.
Returning to the Dajun Mountain Cave Heaven, they bumped into Qu Fenghe. When Feng Tang was imprisoned in the Jundu Mountain Bandit Village, Qu Fenghe was working as a fireman at the Junshan Temple. The two were actually not far apart, but they had never met. , neither have heard of each other.Fang, now that a few years have passed, they have "reunited" again, and they have become closer and have directly become brothers.
Qu Fenghe happily ran to Zhao Ran: "Little uncle, I have broken through!"
Zhao Ran said happily: "I have been a Taoist priest for two and a half years. I entered the Taoist realm very quickly. It is almost the same as me back then. Here is a congratulatory gift for you."
Qu Fenghe smiled and took the small box handed by Zhao Ran, opened it and saw two stacks of talismans. The stack is very thick, probably no less than a hundred, containing various first- and second-order talismans, most of which are fire talismans, and the rest are defensive talismans, flying talismans, and so on. The other stack is very thin, but it contains three golden armor and golden soldier talismans, one each for the sword and shield soldier, the spear soldier, and the archer soldier.
Zhao Ran said: "Go back and ask your teacher to take you to the Jade Emperor Pavilion to be interred."
"yes."
"At your current level, you can already go to the sword pavilion to try it out. You can choose any flying sword magic weapon you want. As for other magic weapons, I have them here, but I have to wait until you enter the Yellow Crown before I can give them to you. . You can take these talismans and compete with fellow monks. This golden armor and golden weapon talisman is enough."
Qu Fenghe agreed to accept it, looked at Feng Tang next to Zhao Ran, and asked: "Uncle, what is this?"
Zhao Ran said: "This is Feng Tang. Haven't you always said that you want to find a junior brother? This is your junior brother."
Qu Fenghe immediately became warm and started chatting with Feng Tang. He is three years younger than Feng Tang, but his personality is more cheerful and enthusiastic than Feng Tang, and his behavior is more mature. He is also the senior brother who entered the family first and is a "high cultivator" in the Taoist realm. However, Feng Tang is very reserved in front of him. It was a bit awkward to deal with Qu Feng and the barrage of questions.
Zhao Ran asked Qu Fenghe to lead the way, and went to see his senior brother Wei Zhizhen first. Zhao Ran had already told Wei Zhizhen in detail about the situation of sealing the Tang Dynasty in advance. Therefore, Wei Zhizhen had already prepared. He immediately called Yu Zhichuan and Luo Zhiqing in front of him and asked Quan Zhike and other secular officials to take care of it. He also asked the two women Cao and Zhuang of Qingzong. After practicing the Guan Li, he performed the Apprenticeship Ceremony in the Doum Hall and was given the Taoist robe, tokens, scriptures, etc. for the Tanglou Guan.
After the apprenticeship ceremony was completed, Wei Zhizhen led Feng Tang to the main peak of Houshan Mountain to meet his master Jiang Tenghe, and then to Wenqing Valley to meet Master Lin. Feng Tang was officially counted as a third-generation disciple of Lou Guan, ranking second.
