Chapter 131 Important Mission
When Senior Sister Zhang said this, in addition to her and Zheng Fa, there were Senior Sister Yuan, Zhou Qianyuan and the headmaster in the thatched cottage.
"Go to the Fufa Pavilion to be a lecturer?" Zheng Fa pointed at his nose and asked, "Me?"
Zheng Fa remembered that the lecturers at the Fufa Pavilion were all brothers in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
He has only been practicing for a short time, and is currently only at the fourth level of Qi training.
"You are already a Xuan-grade Talisman Master." Senior Sister Zhang nodded and said, "I have seen your attainments in the art of talismans over the past few days. You are more than qualified to be a lecturer."
Zheng Fa was a little hesitant after hearing this.
"The drama has just started, and I really don't have enough time to handle it..."
He wasn't looking for excuses.
"Saving Young Monk Pang Qian" has been shown twice within the sect, but not many outside monks have seen it - the price he and Senior Sister Zhang set for external tickets was a bit unfair.
One spirit stone can only buy three tickets, which is more than three times the internal tickets.
During the last screening, there weren't many foreign monks in the market who were willing to watch it - and most of those who were willing to take the free shuttle boat didn't have much money.
This price is indeed a bit difficult for their wallets.
There is no good way to deal with this matter, we can only rely on word of mouth to spread it slowly.
But the plan for the second play has already been put on the agenda by him and the headmaster - now with the support of the disciples of Jiushan Sect, they can at least ensure that they will not lose money by developing a play.
It can also enrich the entertainment life of the brothers of the Jiushan Grandmaster.
Not to mention that he has to practice, make money and study talismans, so his time is indeed limited.
He was not very willing to see Zheng Fa.
Senior Sister Zhang shook her head and said, "For you, the Talisman Pavilion is far more important than the drama."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Fa looked at Senior Sister Zhang with some confusion, and saw Zhou Qianyuan nodding silently beside him.
Zhou Qianyuan saw Zheng Fa staring at him, so he simply explained on behalf of Senior Sister Zhang: "I think Senior Sister Zhang wants you to take over the Fufa Pavilion in the future."
"Take over the Fufa Pavilion?"
Zheng Fa glanced at Senior Sister Zhang. Senior Sister Zhang didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly.
"Brother Zheng, the dispute between our two sects actually stems from the training of disciples in the Fufa Pavilion." Zhou Qianyuan sighed softly and said, "Brother Zheng, you have seen the conflict between the two sects in the Fufa Pavilion."
Zheng Fa nodded slightly, remembering the fight that started over a disagreement when he had just started.
"The things we teach are actually quite different." Zhou Qianyuan explained: "I understood from what you two, Junior Brother Zheng, said about talismans. Your lineage focuses on studying the Yuan Fu."
"And my master's lineage doesn't care about the Yuan Fu - if we have a Yuan Fu, we'll use it. If we don't have a Yuan Fu, we can use the old Fu Tu."
When Zheng Fa heard this, he couldn't help but think it was outrageous that they could quarrel over such a small matter: "Are these two in conflict?"
"There is no conflict." Senior Sister Zhang shook her head and said, "But this is a different understanding of the Tao."
"To put it simply, I believe that man can conquer nature, and Uncle Pang believes in following the will of heaven."
"For example, when inspiration is declining, I think we need to find a solution."
"Uncle Pang thinks it shouldn't be forced."
As Zheng Fa listened, he still felt that there was no actual major conflict between the two. If Senior Sister Zhang wanted to do something, let her do it. How did that get in the way of Senior Uncle Pang?
"I haven't told you before, but in the Hundred Immortals Alliance, there are cultivators who think like me, and there are also cultivators who think like Uncle Pang."
"We feel that our predecessors have failed, and we hope to find another way to change the decline of spiritual power." Senior Sister Zhang said softly: "I study new talismans, and some people study other things... It's all the same."
"Uncle Pang and his people think that our idea is too unlikely... and it will easily waste the few resources that the Hundred Immortals Alliance has now." Senior Sister Zhang was silent for a moment, and continued: "They think that the Xuanwei Realm is about to be in chaos, and we can't waste resources on these things."
Now Zheng Fa understood a little bit.
This is a question of choosing the present or the future: Senior Sister Zhang’s idea is very good, and Zheng Fa also agrees.
The predecessors failed again and again, so they just waited for death without changing? But Uncle Pang also had his own reasons - Sister, they are about to come to the door, how can I have time to study with you?
If your research is successful and then it is taken away by others, that is called making wedding clothes for others.
If the research fails, wouldn't that be a waste of resources? Seeing that Zheng Fa seemed to understand, Senior Sister Zhang said softly: "In order to perfect the "Talisman Dao Foundation Building Method", I almost used up the resources of the sect to cultivate three golden elixirs."
Zheng Fa thought that when Senior Sister Zhang told him about her journey as a genius who was hated by the whole world, he thought it was a bit exaggerated. But now he understood it - in this era, with so many resources, if you don’t get beaten, who will?
"This kind of..." Zheng Fa found a word to describe the two factions: "The conflict between the conservatives and the reformists is very intense in the Hundred Immortals Alliance?"
"More or less. There are fewer people like me, but more people like Uncle Pang." Senior Sister Zhang explained, "But people who have the same views as me usually have some status in the sect."
Well, if you are not a genius like Senior Sister Zhang, you wouldn’t dare to say that you will blaze a new trail.
This conflict, in the final analysis, is a question of attitude towards the decline of inspiration.
Senior Sister Zhang looks at the problem from the most fundamental point of view—she feels that solving the problem of declining spiritual power is the right approach.
But Uncle Pang is more realistic: first survive the future chaos, then deal with the problem of declining spiritual power.
With limited resources and time, the two can hardly coexist.
"What does this have to do with my management of the Talisman Pavilion?" Zheng Fa asked.
"In our two sects, Uncle Pang is in charge of the Discipline Hall, and I am in charge of the General Affairs Pavilion, so we don't interfere with each other." Senior Sister Zhang said to Zheng Fa, "The only place is the Talisman Pavilion, which is where disciples are trained. This place is actually the most important, affecting the balance of power between the two sects, and is also the most likely to cause disputes."
"No one from either lineage is suitable to be the head of the Talisman Pavilion, except you, the head disciple. With your position and identity, being the head of the Talisman Pavilion is the most acceptable to both parties."
"Moreover, if you want to bridge the conflict between the two sects, it is best to start with the Fufa Pavilion."
Senior Sister Zhang’s words left Zheng Fa silent.
He knew that Senior Sister Zhang's arrangement was also for his own good.
Although this will not bring any benefits in the short term, it is the only way to become a future leader.
He hesitated because he was asking himself - do he have the ability to resolve the dispute between the two clans now?
Zheng Fa believes that his greatest strength is that he is very knowledgeable:
Currently, his cultivation level is only at the Qi Refining Stage.
I wouldn’t dare say that my attainments in the art of talismans are better than Senior Sister Zhang’s.
In addition to the ideological disputes mentioned by Senior Sister Zhang, the disputes between the two sects over the past few decades have also been about different concepts.
There is also an old grudge between the disciples of the two lineages.
All he can rely on is his status as the head disciple. How easy is it to solve these problems?
"I know that your cultivation is still a little short. You can be a lecturer first. After you have established your foundation, it won't be too late to talk about taking charge of the Talisman Pavilion..." Senior Sister Zhang paused and said, "If you think it's too hasty, it won't be too late to go after you have established your foundation."
Zheng Fa couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. Senior Sister Zhang probably still wanted to respect his ideas.
"Go! Why not? A mere lecturer position makes you so hesitant?" The headmaster's voice suddenly sounded, and he said loudly: "My disciple, how can you be so timid?"
“…”
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"When I was young, if I had the opportunity to contribute to the sect, I would have risked my life and taken the lead!"
“…”
Zheng Fa didn't believe this from the bottom of his heart - this old man must be bragging.
"Now you are the only successor to the headmaster, and you will have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of being the headmaster in the future. How can you refuse to do anything just because of a little difficulty?"
The headmaster continued to speak with great sorrow.
After hearing this, Zheng Fa was silent for a while, then he bowed to Senior Sister Zhang and said, "Senior Sister, I will take the position of lecturer."
A look of satisfaction flashed in Senior Sister Zhang's eyes.
The headmaster standing by also nodded with a smile, obviously satisfied that he had successfully motivated his apprentice.
"Junior brother just thought about it. In order to bridge the conflict between the two sects, the usual teaching method is not feasible." Zheng Fa suddenly said: "Junior brother wants to try other new methods."
Hearing this, Senior Sister Zhang asked curiously, "How do you want to teach?"
Zheng Fa looked at the headmaster standing beside him.
The smile on the headmaster's face slowly froze, as if he had a bad premonition.
"I want to use the Luzhong Heaven and Earth Technique to let the disciples of the Fufa Pavilion conduct a simulated trial."
"Simulation..." Senior Sister Zhang frowned, as if she didn't understand what Zheng Fa was talking about: "Trial?"
“The world in Luzhong?” There was a look on the leader’s face - something bad is going to happen.
"My idea is to modify the play so that my fellow disciples can experience some real battles in the world of immortal cultivation." Zheng Fa explained: "Let those disciples train in this battlefield."
He explained his ideas in detail to several people.
What Zheng Fa wants to do is - e-sports, but a 100% realistic version.
This was the idea he had the first time he watched a play.
The world of Luzhong is fully capable of allowing the disciples of Jiushan Sect to experience a real war.
After hearing his thoughts, Senior Sister Zhang and the others' eyes lit up.
"Train the combat capabilities of the disciples of Jiushan Sect?" Senior Sister Zhang always looked at things from the perspective of the entire sect: "That's right. A great chaos is about to happen, and the disciples of Jiushan Sect have been at peace for too long."
"Fun! This is more interesting than a drama!" This is Senior Sister Yuan.
"Senior Brother Zheng, when will you officially take office?" This was Zhou Qianyuan, and he seemed eager to experience it.
But one person didn't speak.
This person had been the loudest just now, but now he not only shut his mouth, but also quietly took two steps back.
"Master?" Zheng Fa looked at the headmaster who was three steps away from them and smiled harmlessly: "What do you think?"
"I think your idea is very good, very good."
"Then the development of this new technique will have to be entrusted to you, Master!"
"This thing is not that simple!" The leader muttered when he heard this.
Zheng Fa certainly knew it was not simple, as the logic involved was different - video games and movies are two different products after all.
But looking at the headmaster's expression, you can tell that he either can't do it or finds it too troublesome.
After all, Luzhong Tiandi is the leader’s favorite, so there’s nothing wrong with generating electricity for love.
But Zheng Fa’s new idea was a mission that came out of nowhere.
Given the old man's trouble-averse personality, it's difficult to get him to move.
"Master, since you were young, you were willing to risk your life for the sect, lead by example, and take on responsibilities. How can you be so timid now that you are old?" Zheng Fa repeated skillfully: "Master, you are now shouldering the important responsibility of being the sect leader. How can you refuse to do anything just because of a little difficulty...right?"
Sect Leader: “…”
…
Zheng Fajia was sitting on a cushion. Before the new technique of the headmaster was developed, he would not go to the Talisman Pavilion - he could not do anything even if he went there.
During this period of time, he also wanted to try his best to improve his cultivation.
I have to break through to the fifth level of Qi training tonight.
