Hearing this, Zhang Tianming showed joy, and immediately agreed.

He also knew that Zhang Shiping, the patriarch, had not been involved in clan affairs for more than 200 years, and had hardly appeared in front of others.

There are differences between immortals and ordinary people in the world, and so is the world of cultivating immortals.

This point he experienced even more deeply after he formed the alchemy. Since he became a Jindan real person at the age of 120, he has now passed through more than 100 years, a total of nearly 300 years.

During this period, he watched his children and grandchildren grow up, grow old, and die little by little. At first, he felt even more reluctant, but after seeing more, he became helpless and sighing.

This is the case with Jindan, let alone the Nascent Soul monk who has lived for more than two or three thousand years.

Therefore, the longer the monks live, the more indifferent their emotions will become unknowingly, or more restrained.

After all, there are not many things in the world that can make the Nascent Soul cultivator happy or angry. Not being happy with things or sad with oneself has gradually become a normal state of life, not a deliberate disguise.

"Aside from this, is there anything else?" Zhang Shiping asked.

"It's nothing important. It's just that Lu Huaichang came to me a few days ago and talked about Zhang Guo's affairs. He probably wanted to ask the old ancestor what he meant." Zhang Tianming said.

"I remember this person is the golden core of Gongyangqian. Hasn't he only formed the core for thirty or forty years? Why is he now in charge of the sect's secular and external affairs? Although this is a lucrative job, it is troublesome. Not a lot." Zhang Shiping asked.

"What the ancestor said is that there are many people who are jealous of this position, and this guy is very worried now. But he is too rich, and he is reluctant to let go." Zhang Tianming laughed.

His mother is the legitimate daughter of the Lu family in Sanyuan Island, and Lu Huaichang is the new Jindan of the Lu family. The two have a lot of contacts with each other, and they are one of the few friends.

"Since you have spoken, you can decide how to proceed. I have already entrusted you with the affairs of the clan, so there is no need to ask for instructions on such trivial matters." Zhang Shiping said disapprovingly.

"Yes." Zhang Tianming replied.

Unknowingly, it has been more than 400 years since Zhang Guo established his country, which is really too fast.

According to the rules established by Xuanyuanzong, the time limit for monks to protect the secular dynasty is three hundred years, and then they are no longer allowed to intervene in the rise and fall of the dynasty, and of course they can no longer accept offerings.

As for the change of secular dynasties without the intervention of external forces, it will go with the flow, and no one can escape this law.

After all, from above the temple to the rivers and lakes, where there are people, there are disputes. After a long time, all parties will have a victory or defeat between their grievances and interests, and the world will naturally be divided if it is united for a long time.

This practice of not intervening in the secular world for a long time is not only in the Xuanyuan Sect, but also in other Xiuxian sects. It is a tacit understanding between them.

Of course, it can also be seen from this that the Nanzhou sects do not want the secular dynasty Guozuo under their rule to survive for too long.

For example, Zhang Guo, backed by the Zhang family of Chongling Mountain, and monks sitting in the secular world, how can all parties dare to obey the royal decrees?

As long as the royal family is not ignorant, and government orders are prospered, and the local government does not dare to obey others, the world will not be too chaotic, and the people's livelihood will naturally be stable. During this period, the population of a country will increase dramatically.

But when there are more people, food, clothing, housing and transportation become the most important thing. In order to have enough food, they will naturally do everything possible to reclaim remote mountains and wasteland, burn forests and farmland.

However, under slash-and-burn farming, the mountains and forests were burned. If this situation is left to chance, it may accelerate the decline of Nanzhou's aura.

Therefore, Xuanyuanzong has elders who are responsible for secular affairs of the dynasty. They are dealing with such matters. In the final analysis, they are to control the number of mortals. After all, there are too many cattle and horses, which is also a disaster!

But behind every dynasty, there is at least one Jindan Daoist. Everyone is from the same sect and has fellow Taoists, and we usually don't see each other.

Although there are sect rules, if the elder in charge of this matter insists on it, then it will inevitably make enemies with other Taoist friends.

But it’s impossible not to do things, so it needs to be weighed and flexible.

Of course, since Zhang Shiping was conceived, even if Zhang Guoli has been in the country for three hundred years, how could the elder who was in charge of this matter dare to visit? This person didn't even mention it, as if he didn't know anything.

As for the other dynasties that have already expired, the elder will negotiate with the Jindan real person behind him, or turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye, and continue for decades.

During this period of time, as for the spiritual objects offered in the secular world, it is natural for the two parties to negotiate and share.

There are more than a thousand dynasties, large and small, in Nanzhou, and there are more than two hundred secular dynasties under Xuanyuanzong's rule, so there is a lot of oil and water in this area.

But no matter how difficult things are, as long as there are enough benefits, there will be plenty of Jindan Daoist seeking them.

Lu Huaichang is a newly promoted Jindan, and to get this position, some people may be dissatisfied, so they asked Zhang Tianming just now.

As for why he didn't go to Gongyangqian, apart from the fact that she was not in the sect all the year round, the more important point was that Lu Huaichang didn't want to be regarded as a powerless person by Zhenjun and leave a bad impression.

When Zhang Shiping heard Zhang Tianming mention it, he naturally understood the meaning of this junior from the Lu family, and he could roughly guess that this person must have secretly inquired about his attitude towards the secular dynasty~lightnovelpub.net~Old Ancestor , I have one more thing here. This morning, the Western Desert Wanlin Valley sent invitations to invite the ancestors to the Wanling Fruit Banquet in March. " Zhang Tianming said, he turned his hand and took out an emerald green jade tablet.

Zhang Shiping took it casually, probed with his spiritual sense, roughly read the news in it, and then chuckled lightly:

"The Banquet of Spirits and Fruits is open again. The last time this fat man invited me to the West Desert, he failed and he spread the news about the Nine Birds and Golden Crow Order, which caused the old man a big loss, and he was not able to hand it over to the sect. .Forget it, this time I will go to meet him for a while, and then you will be with me, and the Wanlingguo will help the golden core to purify the spirit, and it will be beneficial to your future practice!"

"Thank you, Patriarch." Zhang Tianming said happily.

Jiang Si, who was on the side, heard the words and said, "Then I will go with me this time, but I have never been to Ximo. It is rumored that Ximo is a Buddhist country, which talks about the equality of all living beings. All ethnic groups negotiate , I also want to see what it looks like."

"It's just nice to say, it's not that the Baima Temple family is dominant, it's even more arbitrary. Although Wanlingu has some words, it's not much better." Zhang Shiping said disapprovingly.

"This is normal. The Baima Temple family occupies almost half of the spiritual veins in Ximo, which is more profound than the sect's background. Otherwise, how could there be four monks who transformed themselves into spirits in the past?" Jiang Si laughed.

But Bai Qi, who was at the back, was about to make a sound when he heard Zhang Shiping say unhurriedly: "You don't want to go there. It's been so many years since the formation of alchemy, and you haven't reached the middle stage of cultivation, and you are practicing in the cave."

Upon hearing these words, Bai Qiweng's voice should be correct, and his expression was quite depressed.

Everyone walked slowly, along the mountain path at the foot of the mountain, enjoying the scenery along the way.

Not long after, Zhang Tianming resigned and went back to inform Zheng Hengyun and others, planning to call back the foundation-builder monks from the family outside.
