Chapter 194 Tacit understanding and remembering(3/4)
In the past, Chairman Pan, who built the headquarters of the Sanchuan Society outside the city in order to have more sufficient space for activities, also echoed:
“Although the current Sanchuan City has undergone some repairs and adjustments, the overall layout is still the same as it was decades ago, which cannot meet the needs of the current Sanchuan Plain.
Since we need to deploy a third-level city defense, we might as well do it all at once and smash and rebuild the original layout of Sanchuan City!
The new Sanchuan City should not only meet the current needs of Sanchuan Plain, but also meet the needs for a long time to come!"
According to his vision, after the reconstruction and expansion of Sanchuan City, at least the headquarters of the Sanchuan Society must be "conquered" into the city.
Everyone began to brainstorm and design the new Sanchuan City and even the plan of Jade City on the spot.
Meng Zhou had already completed the treatment and was listening quietly, saying little.
However, occasionally, when everyone turns the topic to him, he will also say a few words.
Afterwards, everyone walked around according to the normal procedures of the celebration.
This is nothing worth mentioning. For those monks in the early and middle stages of foundation building, especially Qi training monks, this may be an extremely significant day.
At other times, it would be a luxury to have such a close encounter with such a big shot, but now, they appear "in droves" around them.
If you are brave enough, you can even join in and say a few words.
In such an occasion, as long as the behavior is not too rude, no one will care.
Ding Ning and Meng Zhou once again briefly became the protagonists, each sharing some experiences on pill formation.
To Meng Zhou, this was the drizzle sprinkled after exerting great restraint, but to those who listened to the sermon, it was a torrential downpour, a torrential downpour.
The appearance of those few outer realm pill-forming monks did not have much impact on these monks located in the middle and lower levels of Qingxuan Domain.
If the sky is falling, there are tall people holding it up. Even if they are jumping around, they may not be able to reach such a big thing. Therefore, they don't have to worry about it. Instead, it adds extra talk to the celebration.
After the celebration, the crowds who gathered in Sanchuan City did not disperse, and the excitement continued.
It was already evening, and the entire Sanchuan City turned into a city that never sleeps, with bright lights.
At this moment, three streamlined shuttle-shaped spaceships, like big fish lurking in the dark night, quietly emerged from the bright corner of Sanchuan City.
More than ten figures appeared one after another.
Long before these spaceships arrived, Xuanyuanzi and Deputy Hall Master Fan were already waiting on the platform that had been cleared again.
After these people arrived, they met up with them, exchanged a few words in low voices, and then dispersed in several directions.
And those directions are the directions in which the monks from the outside world fled away.
These people did not leave for too long, and soon returned one after another. From the looks on their faces, it was not clear whether they had gained something or not.
After everyone returned, Xuanyuanzi said to the monks who were leaving Sanchuan Yuan:
"Is it okay to leave now?"
It is safe and convenient to be picked up and dropped off by Qingxuanzong's airship. Of course, there is no problem.
The location of Sanchuan Yuan is still a little marginal in the entire Qingxuan Territory.
Being stirred by Xuanyuanzi's words, it was really scary to cross the tens of thousands of miles of wilderness alone at this time.
After these people boarded the ship, the three spacecrafts quietly took off and left just as they came.
Below, Sanchuan City was still bustling with activity, and no one knew about these secret changes.
Among the guests who came to congratulate them, the most important ones were basically gone. Only Cao Lie, Song Yang, Meng Zhou, Ding Ning and a bunch of local fake pills from the Sanchuan Plateau stayed here.
However, not all those who came left.
Deputy Hall Master Fan left with the ship, but not only Xuan Yuanzi stayed, but also two other Qingxuan Sect monks.
There was a female cultivator and a male cultivator, both about the same age as Yu Qiao, both in their early thirties.
They called Xuanyuanzi their uncle, but Xuanyuanzi's attitude towards them was much more enthusiastic.
These two people did not have any contact with Cao Lie, Meng Zhou and others, and went directly to Xuanyuanzi's cave in Sanchuan City.
Xuanyuanzi stayed to communicate with Cao Lie, Meng Zhou and others:
"During this period, they will stay in Sanchuan City and will not leave until Sanchuan City completes the city defense upgrade."
"They have been resting at my place for the past two days, but this is not a long-term solution.
Therefore, we must find two suitable caves for them as soon as possible, and you all have to contribute to these.
...The quality of the cave cannot be lower than the third-level mid-grade, do you have any objections?"
Of course there won't be any problems.
It was obvious that he was here to show them off.
Originally, Cao Lie and the others were still a little guilty. If all the guests and the Qingxuan Sect members were gone, leaving them, all the casual cultivators who had just entered the Dan Formation, would be a little hairy just thinking about it.
If Yu Qiao from Yu Ling Sect were to do that again, they would have no way to deal with it.
Now, they feel at ease.
After all these things were sorted out and Xuanyuanzi left, Meng Zhou, as one of the nominal protagonists of today's celebration, bowed his hands to Cao Lie and Song Yang and said goodbye.
…
Seeing that everyone had almost left, President Pan said to Ding Ning, who was standing aside like a wooden stake: "Let's go."
"Old man." Ding Ning said suddenly.
President Pan paused and looked at her: "What do you want to do?"
He knew Ding Ning very well, and just from her tone, he knew that her opening this time would not be simple.
"What do you think of me applying to be a guest of Qingxuan Sect?" Ding Ning said.
"Ah?" President Pan's head was shut down. Although he was prepared in his heart, he was still almost broken by her sudden big turn.
After a while, he cursed angrily:
"I put so much effort into cultivating you, and this is how you repay me?"
"How can Sanchuan get out of this situation? I almost risked my life. Who is this for?"
"Now that your wings are hardened, you have to find a higher branch, right?"
He spat at Ding Ning, but Ding Ning didn't refute. After he finished speaking and calmed down, he said:
"Think about it, if it's a problem that I can solve, I don't really need to step in at all.
As long as everyone knows that someone like me is here, no one will dare to ride on the head of the Sanchuan Association."
"But if it's a problem that I can't solve, it doesn't actually make any difference whether I'm in Mikawa Plain or not."
"You know my cultivation style. It is impossible for me to practice as cleanly as Mr. Ge.
Every time I practice for a period of time, if I don’t vent my feelings, I can’t calm down at all.
If I practice in Sanchuan Plateau, this problem will not be easy to solve."
"From the time I left the country to now, I have experienced so many things one after another.
I have a hunch that Qingxuan Territory will never be peaceful again.
We can’t hide either!”
"In that case, why not take the initiative?"
Having said this, she paused and finally said:
"If I can gain a foothold in the Qingxuan Sect and gain some fame, wouldn't it be better for you and the Sanchuan Society than for me to just stay in the Sanchuan Plain?"
President Pan opened his mouth, but found that he could not find a reason to refute.
As she laid out her reasons one by one, even he couldn't help but feel that what Ding Ning said did make sense.
He knew that Ding Ning's sudden idea was an excellent choice not only for her, but also for him, and even for the Sanchuan Society.
He had even begun to imagine that Ding Ning would be placed next to Deputy Hall Master Fan and serve as a law enforcement guest.
For other monks, running around every now and then was a chore, but for her, it was tailor-made for her.
In such an environment, she would definitely be able to thrive.
However, although he agreed intellectually, emotionally, President Pan still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed as he was about to become a lonely old man.
In the past, when both master and apprentice, including Sanchuan Hui, were still very weak, Ding Ning's way of protecting him was to stay with him as much as possible, and master and apprentice would face everything together.
Now, they, including the forces behind them, are no longer what they used to be, and the way they protect them has also become different.
Seeing that he was still in a daze, Ding Ning asked:
"Hey, old man, what on earth did you say?"
President Pan finished his thinking, waved his hand and said: "Go ahead, go ahead."
…
In Sanchuan City, "Zhuang Sheng" said goodbye to Qiao Xin, Wei Yuan, Wei Xiao and several other old friends and dispersed.
"Zhuang Sheng" also fled all the way back to Zhuang Tianzhuang.
