Chapter 327 Volume C: Recruiting Disciples and Connections
Chen Huaisheng's face felt a little hot.
This reform has actually been brewing for a long time.
In fact, Chen Huaisheng mentioned it to Wu Tianen before moving to Hebei. Later, due to the delay of the Baishimen invasion, the sect needed stability after moving north, so it was shelved.
Now that one year has passed and the situation is stable, there is no need to delay.
Shang Jiuling also asked about some situations in these aspects, and Chen Huaisheng also gave suggestions, including the recruitment of apprentices and these reward and punishment systems, which were all suggested by Chen Huaisheng.
It's just that the specific details of these rules and regulations are not Chen Huaisheng's consideration.
So when Chen Huaisheng heard Luo Xiuyue cursing, he could only rub his face in embarrassment.
Three old friends who were kind to me and kept in touch with me came to visit. They must have come to inquire about information or seek help.
This help is not about other things, but more about getting some advice from myself.
This is also Chen Huaisheng's plan.
Looking around, there are only a few people in the sect who are related to and relatively close to him.
For those who are older and more senior, or those with higher levels, Wu Tianen counts as one, Li Yu counts as half, and Gou Yiwei counts as half.
Further down, Wang Yao, Xu Tianfeng, Yao Liwei and even Zhao Sitian are not included. It can only be said that their relationship is acceptable.
Of course, there are also some close friends among these people.
For example, Wang Yao and Zhao Sitian are closer, and Xu Tianfeng and Yao Liwei, who are considered their senior brothers, are a little more indifferent, but they are still passable.
There is also Guo Chongdao, whose relationship is not bad, but the utilitarian factor is heavier. Of course, this is normal.
The other three are Yun He, Luo Xiuyue and Cai Jinyang.
Because the three of them were friends of the poor and the lowly, they had this relationship before they became rich, and they kept it going. They also gave each of them twenty kilograms of the manta ray meat they brought back.
Further down are Hu Delu and the others.
This kind of relationship is different, it can be regarded as the prototype of a small group.
For example, Lu Wenshen, who had become increasingly close to each other in the past, was attacked and killed by Aolong while crossing the river. The remaining two were Tang Wenhu and Shi Qian who participated in the Battle of Tianzhai, and their relationship could only be regarded as ordinary.
In theory, Yuan Wenbo's relationship can be regarded as a senior brother relationship, but everyone knows very well that this is a kind of competitive and semi-partner relationship, and may not even be considered a friend.
In the entire sect, there are only so many people who can have a relationship with him. The relationship ranges from deep to shallow, and there are so many people.
Yun He, Luo Xiuyue and Cai Jinyang are relatively close. They have no interest in each other and are friends of the poor and the lowly. It is not easy to maintain a relationship.
Therefore, Chen Huaisheng hopes that this friendship can be preserved. If it can help the three of them take a step forward in spiritual practice, Chen Huaisheng will not hesitate to contribute.
Of course, in a sense, if there are more and more powerful sect disciples who are close to you, it will be beneficial to you. No matter what your thoughts are in the sect in the future, this is a good thing.
"Senior Brother Yun, Senior Sister Luo, and Senior Brother Cai, I actually think this is a good thing." Chen Huaisheng considered his words, "As Senior Brother Yun said, if we let those people continue, it will definitely affect the positive atmosphere of the sect's cultivation. It will have a huge negative impact, and we are not safe in Hebei. In the long run, we don’t dare to delay it any longer.”
"Huaisheng, we also know that the sect will take this step sooner or later, but for us, this is too sudden and we are not prepared at all."
Luo Xiuyue, under the signal from her husband's eyes, also realized that what she just said seemed to be a bit out of line. The person in front of her was a direct disciple of the sect, which was different.
"Senior sister, you have to face it all the time." Chen Huaisheng smiled, "Looking at Senior Brother Yun, I know that he must be well aware of it. He will definitely be promoted to the sixth level of Qi Refining next year, right?"
Chen Huaisheng's tone was very determined, and Yun He was not shy, "Be calm and go all out. If you don't succeed next year, and the year after next, and if you don't succeed the year after, and then the year after that, you will eventually be promoted. I don't believe I can't succeed."
"This is the spirit of Senior Brother Yun. I believe that Senior Sister is a heroine and will not be remembered by future generations." Chen Huaisheng said cheerfully.
"Huai Sheng, just hold it up for senior sister as hard as you can. The higher you hold it, the more painful it will be for senior sister if she falls."
Seeing Chen Huaisheng so friendly, Luo Xiuyue felt a little at ease.
She and her husband had a purpose for coming here, so they took Cai Jinyang along by the way.
My daughter Yun Lei is ten years old. She has already awakened her Tao bones and spiritual roots. She realized the Tao three months ago and successfully entered the second house of the Chuan Gong Academy and is practicing Qi.
Chen Huaisheng has not accepted any disciples until now.
Logically speaking, he is now at a high level in qi training and is actually qualified to accept disciples. However, the news is that Chen Huaisheng does not plan to accept disciples in the short term, but will only consider it after establishing a foundation.
She and her husband had been thinking about becoming a disciple for a long time.
At present, there are some monks in the sect who have officially accepted disciples.
During the foundation building process, except for the special situation of the leader, Zhu Fengbi was extremely demanding. He only accepted Zhuo Yixing and another disciple from Hebei, but refused to accept any more.
And Li Yu, the headmaster, went out to travel and did not accept any disciples.
You Shaoyou accepted Zhao Wuyou and a disciple from Langling who started last year as his disciples, and last month he accepted a disciple from Fuyang as his disciple.
The remaining two people, Yang Delong and Sun Chengyi, have long since aged, and no one would be willing to become their disciples. They are also unwilling to accept disciples, and would rather consider their own children.
Xu Muyang accepted Chen Song, his former disciple, as his disciple, as well as two disciples he recruited in Langling and Yiyang Prefecture last year, and Ma Daochun is almost the same, basically the limit is three disciples.
Wu Tianen and Wang Yao have not accepted any disciples yet.
It is said that Wu Tianen has too many affairs in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he also hopes to practice and advance to the third level of foundation building as soon as possible, so he does not have much energy.
Wang Yao is not interested in accepting disciples.
There are also many people here who use many relationships to beg for approval, but in the end there is only this result.
In addition to talent and qualifications, accepting disciples is also a very particular matter, and fate must be considered.
Eye contact, temperament, and feeling are especially important in the cultivation of immortals. If they are not satisfied, no matter how good the talent is or how close the relationship is, they will not accept disciples.
In this way, there is basically no chance for foundation building.
In the inner hall of the Transmission Academy, people like Xu Tianfeng, Liu Chun, Yao Liwei, and Cao Renben are all focused on foundation building and have no intention of accepting disciples.
Only Zhao Sitian took a fancy to Ren Wuchen because of his talent, and finally accepted such a disciple.
Some other high-level Qi-refining cultivators also accepted disciples, but in the eyes of Yunhe and Luo Xiuyue, those cultivators were not much stronger than themselves, and they were not as good as Chen Huaisheng. So with this relationship, they naturally hoped to become Chen Huaisheng's disciples.
Chen Huaisheng also roughly guessed the purpose of Yunhe and Luo Xiuyue.
Otherwise, for the reform of the sect system, it would involve the major event of the entire sect, and it was not their turn to comment. They also understood that it was impossible for them to come to them to fight over this matter.
Seeing Yun He was silent and Luo Xiuyue was hesitant to speak, Cai Jinyang smiled and broke the deadlock: "Huaisheng, we can only talk about the reform of the sect system, but Senior Brother Yun and Senior Sister Luo really have something to entrust to you, Huaisheng."
"Two senior brothers and sisters, I know roughly what you are here for, but you also know that I have no intention of accepting disciples now. I have seen Yun Lei, and her aptitude is indeed good, but what can I do..." Chen Huaisheng shook his head, "In fact, senior brothers and sisters can find other famous teachers, such as Senior Brother Li Kunyang, who is also in the seventh level of Qi training. I went to the Bianjing Daohui with him, and there are a few We have a good relationship, why not..."
"Huaisheng, I also know Senior Brother Li, but I don't want Yunlei to worship him as her master." Yunhe shook his head, "If she worships him as her master, then Yunlei might as well follow us, so that we can have someone to take care of her. We hope that Yunlei can follow a Taoist master with a better future..."
Chen Huaisheng laughed, "Senior Brother, do you think highly of me?"
"In addition to several foundation-building masters, there are actually only three people I like, Xu Tianfeng, Zhao Sitian, and Huaisheng you, and I don't deny that I think more highly of you among the three." Yunhe spoke frankly.
Chen Huaisheng smiled bitterly, "Senior Brother really thinks highly of me. How can I compare with Senior Brother Xu and Senior Brother Zhao?"
"We know whether we can compare or not." Yun He said directly: "Huaisheng, I know you have your own ideas, but Senior Brother hopes that Yun Lei can worship you as a teacher and have a better future in the future. Your senior sister and I probably have limited luck, so I hope Yun Lei is stronger than us. You hope to accept disciples after building the foundation, but Lei girl can't wait any longer. I heard that Ren Wu Gou came to you after finishing the class at the Transmission Academy. Can Lei girl do the same?"
Seeing Yun He's firm attitude and Luo Xiuyue's expectation, Chen Huaisheng wanted to refuse, but he couldn't speak.
Ren Wu Gou is now with Min Qingyu. He is always hypocritical and has hidden tricks, which makes Chen Huaisheng a little headache. If a little girl comes, I don't know what will happen.
The key is that Ren Wu Gou and Min Qingyu are different from Yun Lei.
Min Qingyu is a companion, and Ren Wugui seems to be satisfied with the status quo and does not want to be his apprentice. Yun Lei's involvement will make things even more chaotic.
If he waits until he builds his foundation to accept a disciple, when can he build his foundation?
He has no idea, maybe five or eight years, maybe ten years, he can't let them wait forever.
Looking at the expectant eyes of Yun He and Luo Xiuyue, Chen Huaisheng finally couldn't refuse, and could only agree that Yun Lei and Ren Wugui could come to him to observe, learn and exchange ideas.
As for future matters, they can only wait until later.
After this matter was settled, Yun He and his wife felt at ease.
In addition, they haven't been together for a while, so when they chat and talk about the internal affairs of the sect, they naturally have to talk about the changes brought about by this reform.
