Chapter 1323: Copied Their Roots
With their wedding approaching, the two definitely cannot be together.
So the Long family prepares its own things, and the Tianji Temple prepares its own things.
After Lei Zhen came down from Shenlong Peak, he went to Panlong Ridge to stay for a few days. Only when his legs became weak and sore did he return to Tianji Temple to recuperate and wait for his wedding a week later.
"Ziyun's medicine is really good. It instantly restored my energy and spirit."
Lying on the chair, Lei Zhen sighed.
He had made up his mind that when he went out of the mountains, he must bring Ziyun with him and find a quiet place for her to refine pills.
"Uncle Master, if you hadn't been so exhausted, you wouldn't be so exhausted." Yuan Sancai shook his head and said, "There's only a certain number of times a person can use it in their lifetime. What will happen if they use it up early?"
"That's true. How many times have you looked at me?"
"I calculated that Uncle Shishu should have done this 18,000 times in his lifetime!"
"So little?"
"365 days a year, that's enough for 50 years."
"You think I'm Teddy?"
"No, Uncle Master is Wolf Warrior."
"Grass……"
It was just a joke. Old Yuan was just advising Lei Zhen to be more restrained and not to always think about taking drugs.
Young people need to rely on themselves to regulate their lives. Taking drugs too early will only lead to regret.
"Uncle Master, why did you let all these families out?" Yuan Sancai asked puzzledly, "Each family is a tough one. Once they get out, they will cause a huge impact on the outside world."
Different worlds must stay in a fixed world. The famous families have been passed down for so many years in the mountains because once they go out, it will inevitably cause imbalance.
They control the family world, and the family world affects the normal world. Now that the prominent families have directly skipped the family world and left, it will inevitably trigger various chain reactions.
"Old Yuan, do you know why we are promoting urbanization?"
"For development, we need to use infrastructure to drive economic growth."
"This is just one aspect. There's a deeper meaning, which is to gradually eliminate the influence of clans. As more and more people move into cities and settle down, clans in most areas will completely fade away after a few generations."
Hearing this, Yuan Sancai looked puzzled.
"Don't pretend. You stay in the think tank every day. What don't you know?" Lei Zhen said disdainfully.
"Uncle Master, I'm just an excellent employee of the weather station. When I have time, I go to the paradise on earth to make up for my lessons. How can I have the time to think about these things?" Yuan Sancai grinned.
Of course he knew it, but he had to leave some room for his uncle to play.
Although it may seem like flattery, flattering my uncle is not flattery. It is called respecting the elderly and loving the young.
"In a few years, cities will be unprecedentedly large. By then, no one will know each other. Children who have lived in cities since childhood will be unfamiliar with the concept of family. The most they will do is accompany their fathers back to their hometowns to visit their graves."
"There are still armed conflicts between villages now, but they won't happen in a few years because people will be completely dispersed. Even brothers and sisters within the fifth degree of kinship will be strangers to each other."
This is the inevitable result of urbanization. More and more people are concentrated in cities, and generation after generation, they will eventually lose their hometowns.
"I'll use this to pull out the roots of prominent families. In a few years, their descendants will all be born in cities, or even abroad. At most, within three generations, they'll completely forget about this place."
"Only in this way can I completely control the famous families! Perhaps by then they will no longer be of much value, but is it really that little? Once unrest occurs, who can provide them with protection?"
"Hometown, clan! Because our cultural heritage has never been broken for thousands of years, especially our root culture. Do you understand what I mean?"
Yuan Sancai let out a long breath and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: High, really high!
He had never thought of this level at all, but his uncle saw it so deeply that it was impossible for him to disagree.
Roots will never disappear. Even if you have forgotten your hometown after three generations, you will have to run back to your roots when you encounter special events.
By this time, the prominent families had already become affiliated with the Lei family.
"Uncle Master, this move of yours is truly amazing!"
"They have no idea that by the time they wake up, their hometown will have been bought out by you. By then, you'll have to add the Lei royal family to your prestigious family!"
This is not flattery, but a compliment that sends chills down the spine.
Unconsciously, he took advantage of time and environment to make a big move and usurp the throne.
"I just want to protect the last piece of pure land of the noble family. I just want to lead the noble family to protect the East when the East is in trouble. That's all."
"Sancai, your words have disappointed my uncle..."
Lei Zhen shook his head and sighed, his face showing no sign of hiding his disappointment, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
It was obvious that he wanted to better protect the East, but in the mouth of his nephew, he was accused of stealing other people's secrets. How could he be such a person?
With his intelligence, he simply couldn't think of this, and with his benevolence and righteousness, he would definitely not dare to think about it!
"Damn it, I'm giving you a chance to reorganize your words." Lei Zhen glared at him, "Think it over before you speak, otherwise—"
"Sancai is short-sighted and fails to appreciate the good intentions of his uncle-master. I am truly ashamed."
"You care deeply about the world, are open-minded, and are unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. You have devoted all your energy to the East, inherited the lost knowledge of the ancient sages, established your mission for the people, and brought peace to the world for all eternity. You are truly a sage of our time..."
The corny words coming out of Yuan Sancai's mouth were like falling flowers, praising Lei Zhen as rare in heaven and on earth, making him a model among saints.
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad." Lei Zhen laughed heartily. "I thought no one in this world understood me, but I didn't expect that you, Old Yuan, are my soulmate. I'll build a Taoist temple for you and guide you to practice Taoism well."
"Building a temple, practicing Taoism? Uncle, please don't joke about this."
"Who's kidding? Foot massage is also a way!"
"Then I want the largest dojo to educate the barbarians in all directions..."
Why did he tell Yuan Sancai this, letting him know the reason for letting the famous family go? He wanted to test this old charlatan and see if he would tell his superiors about this after returning.
If he told them, it wouldn't have much impact on Lei Zhen, but it would have a huge impact on Tianji Temple. He would have to clean it up, at least get rid of Old Yuan.
If I don't tell him, it means that Lao Yuan has changed sides and can be used as a confidant. After all, they are already uncle and nephew in the same sect.
After all, Tianji Temple is very important here, and it must be presided over by someone who is absolutely loyal to him. Only in this way can his orders be executed unconditionally.
"Uncle Master, the news of your wedding to the Dragon Emperor hasn't made the Mei Clan too happy," Yuan Sancai whispered. "After all, we came to the Mei Clan to propose marriage, but now I'm afraid we have to give them an explanation, right? Although the Mei Clan, Ghost Clan, and Phantom Clan are weak, they have a wide variety of methods. You must value them very much."
"Wu Mei is dissatisfied?"
"It should be."
"Just convince her."
"Sleeping clothes? It has to be Uncle Master!"
"I'm talking about persuasion."
"Yes, you are talking about sleeping clothes."
"roll!"
Lei Zhen dared to swear that what he said was "persuasion", and definitely not "sleep". Although this word has multiple pronunciations, "sleep" seems... quite exciting!
