Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 475 Optional

There are only a few disciples from the Intelligence Department and the Discipline Department left in the hall.

Tong Quan'an said: "It's a pity that Zhu Xu and Ma Xuan were killed in the last battle. Afterwards, the sect has its own affairs to take care of, but the department cannot be without a leader for a day. If any of you feel that they are qualified for this position Candidates can apply to the sect, write a detailed dossier of their life history and meritorious achievements, and hand it to me, and I will hand it over to the sect master, and then decide the candidate."

"Yes."

"Go back and make your own preparations! Those who are willing to take up this position, hand over the dossier to me within three days."

"Disciple, leave." Several people responded, and left the hall in a flash of light.

Tang Ning, Lu Guang, and Liu Miao walked side by side.

Liu Miao asked: "Brother Tang, do you have any interest in selecting a deacon for this department?"

Tangning smiled slightly and said, "Senior brother Lu must also participate in the selection!"

Lu Guangdao: "As long as you meet the conditions, you can participate in the election of deacons. It is not a bad thing to have more people. The big waves wash away the sand! As for whether you can be selected in the end, it is up to the sect to decide. It is not what you and I can predict. I am lucky to win and lose to me If Junior Brother Liu is interested, he can also participate in this election."

Liu Miao said: "I won't join in the fun, I'm not qualified to choose a deacon based on my cultivation."

The three of them chatted and laughed, and after a short while they arrived at Middle Finger Peak, Tangning went back to the cave.

Liu Miao looked at his receding figure and frowned and said, "With his fame and meritorious service, the sect's senior management will definitely value him more. Brother Lu, what do you think the chances of winning are?"

Lu Guang smiled slightly: "He has no chance."

Liu Miao was astonished when he heard this. He didn't know why Lu Guang said such unexpected words. He looked sideways, but saw the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his eyes glowed with confidence: "What do you mean by Lu Guang?"

"You'll know when the time comes." Lu Guang didn't say much, and with a flash of light, he left.

Tangning returned to the cave, immediately took out a pen and paper, and wrote down all the meritorious deeds she had made in her life and the sect tasks she had completed each time in the dossier.

At night, he left the cave, and after a short walk, he came to a majestic and majestic cave, waved his hand, and passed the sound transmission talisman in.

After waiting for a while, the dense fog surged, and a ray of light shot from the inside, revealing the figure of a tall and straight man with a fair complexion. It was Chen Yu, who was directly under the secret academy, and said: "Senior Brother Tang, Uncle Tong Please come in."

Tang Ning followed him into the cave, walked through several passages, and came to the main room. Tong Quan'an was sitting cross-legged on the futon. Chen Yu said, "Uncle, Senior Brother Tang is here."

Tangning stepped forward and bowed to salute, "Disciple pays respects to my uncle."

Tong Quan'an waved his hand, and Chen Yu retreated: "Sit down! There is no need to be formal."

"Thank you, Master." Tangning sat down as she said, and with a flick of her sleeve, a file slipped into her hands, and he handed it to him with both hands: "Master, this disciple wants to run for the position of deacon of the intelligence department. This is the file written by the disciple. According to Master Order, all life history has been written here."

Tong Quan'an took the file and said with a slight smile, "It's good that you want to take on the burden of the intelligence department."

"I also hope that my uncle can support me."

"I recognize your ability and strength. I can rest assured that the intelligence department is in your hands. No matter how many people participate in the selection of deacons, I will vote for you when the time comes."

"Thank you, uncle." Tangning stood up and bowed.

It was expected that Tong Quan'an would support him. In the secret battle between Shi Mingsuan and Luo Qingshui for the leadership, Tong Quan'an had always stood by Luo Qingshui's side.

He was personally recommended by Luo Qingshui to join the intelligence department. After all these years, he had clearly labeled Luo Qingshui's faction, so he could not support Lu Guang no matter in public or private.

Tong Quan'an said: "Besides me, there are six stewards of the three halls and three courtyards in the Zongmen. You should also walk around where the others are."

"The disciple knows."

In the rules and regulations of Taoism, the selection of the deacons of the department is jointly decided by all the stewards of the three halls and three courts, and the form of the minority obeying the majority is adopted. Everyone has the right to vote, including the head, and the one with the most votes Competent, if the votes are of the same type, whoever votes for the leader wins.

Ganyi Zongmu now has eight high-level managers. In addition to the master of the third hall, the master of the third courtyard, and the head, there is also Yin Qingyuan who succeeded in forming alchemy a few years ago. Now he is the steward of the Qingxuan Hall. The support of at least five votes can ensure victory in the competition with Lu Guang.

It is worth mentioning that in the Taoist system, taking Qianyizong as an example, not all Jindan monks can serve as stewards of the three halls and three courtyards. The degree can be automatically selected.

There are only ten managers in all temple departments, that is to say, there are only sixty-seven high-ranking members of the three halls and three courtyards of the Taoist sect no matter what level, including the three hall masters, three courtyard masters and seven heads. There are ten stewards in the hospital.

It's just that Gan Yizong has never had so many Golden Core monks, so once the core is formed, they will naturally be able to take up the position of steward.

The following ministries and disciplines are also general. It is not that they can be automatically promoted to stewards after reaching the foundation establishment level, but most departments do not have more than ten foundation establishment monks, so if the following disciples succeed in foundation establishment, they will directly serve as stewards of the department.

The steward can independently manage some affairs, and at the same time has the right to make decisions about the department's personnel, finance and other conveniences.

Take the intelligence department as an example. Any affairs, big or small, in the department must be discussed and implemented after discussing with them.

For example, the transfer, promotion, etc. of a certain disciple must obtain the consent of most of the stewards to be effective.

If there are [-] or [-] foundation-building monks in the intelligence department, except for the ten stewards, the other four or five foundation-building monks can only serve as the captain of the action team below, or the head of the intelligence station.There is no doubt that they are treated differently from those in charge.

The two chatted for a while, Tong Quan'an waved his hand and said: "Go! Go to other people's place more, I won't keep you here."

"Disciple farewell."

...........................

On the middle finger peak, Lu Guang returned to the cave, and when he went to the room, a middle-aged woman with a slim figure and snow-white skin came out to greet her, her face was full of concern, it was his wife Zhou Yingxue.

"Husband, Uncle Tong called you to discuss matters because of the deacon of the intelligence department to choose something?"

Lu Guang smiled, and took her by the hand into the room, "The main purpose is to give out the rewards for the Battle of Xuanyue Mountain. However, this matter was mentioned at the end. Tangning has decided to participate in the election."

Zhou Yingxue sighed: "Senior brother Lu still has the foresight! I expected this to happen today."

Lu Guangdao: "The world is always unpredictable. Senior Brother Lu is just planning ahead to guard against the passing of time. After all, he had already shown a very strong momentum at that time. Anyone would be on guard. If it wasn't for the Demon Sect's troubles and Zhu Xu's death, it would have been too late. It would not be where it is today.”

Zhou Yingxue said: "Since that's the case, should I do it?"

Lu Guang said: "Look again! If you can choose smoothly and normally, then there is no need. I have no enmity with him. If it is not necessary, I would not use this method to offend others for nothing."

...........................

Tangning came to Zixia Peak's cave, waved her hand, and the talisman disappeared into the thick fog.

Not long after, the thick fog surged, a ray of light flashed out from inside, and a man's figure appeared, it was Luo Qingshui's disciple Yang Chang, he said: "Brother Tang, Master invites you to come in and have a talk."

Tangning followed him to the living room.

"Brother Tang, please wait a moment, the master will be here in a while." Yang Chang turned and left the room.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, footsteps could be heard outside, and Luo Qingshui entered from outside. Tangning hurriedly got up and bowed, "Disciple pays respects to uncle."

Luo Qingshui waved his hand when he took the main seat: "Sit!"

"Thank you, uncle."

"What are you doing here?"

"Uncle Tong called me to discuss matters this morning. When it comes to the selection of the deacon of the intelligence department, the disciples have submitted the file to Master Tong and decided to participate in the selection of the deacon of the intelligence department. Therefore, I am here to listen to the teaching of my uncle, and I hope that my uncle will not hesitate to give me some advice." .”

Luo Qingshui smiled and said, "Junior Brother Tong, what can you say?"

"Uncle Meng Tong praised him, and he made it clear that he would support me as the deacon of the intelligence department."

Luo Qingshui nodded slightly: "I won't go into too much detail about the rules and regulations of our Taoist sect, you should be clear about it. As far as this matter is concerned, if you want to successfully take up this position, you must have the support of at least five people in order to be sure of winning. Are you going to Who are the people to visit and get their support?"

"Also ask my uncle to enlighten me."

"Junior brother Peng from the Yuanyi Palace is fair and selfless. Junior brother Jiang from the Internal Affairs Department has a short lifespan, and has always seldom intervened in the affairs of the sect. Junior brother Yin, who is in charge of the Qingxuan Palace, has not been promoted to Jindan for a long time, and has always been the head of the sect. .You only need to get the support of two of these three people, and you can be sure of victory."

Tang Ning nodded, understanding what he meant. The eight high-level Jindan monks in Qianyizong had already obtained two votes from Tong Quan'an and Luo Qingshui.

The leader, Wei Xuande, has a lenient temperament and is a good old man. He has never expressed his position on personnel appointments. With the merits he has made over the years, even if he does not support voting for himself, he should not explicitly support Lu Guang. This vote Most abstained.

Among the remaining five people, Luo Qingshui didn't mention the historical name of the master of Qingxuan Palace and the easy-going head of the Foreign Affairs Academy Cheng Shuimin, the meaning is obvious, that is, if he can't get the support of these two people, it's useless to visit.

Needless to say, Shi Mingsui, he couldn't support him, and Cheng Minshui and Shi Mingsui were friends, and he was Shi Mingsui's supporter in the battle for the head, so he would most likely support Lu Guang.

Peng Wanli, Jiang Ming, and Yin Qingyuan belonged to the neutral faction and had no obvious inclination, so their support was needed.

Tang Ning said, "I don't know these master uncles very well. I don't know if they have any preferences when I visit them rashly."

Luo Qingshui smiled slightly: "You don't have to think about these things, You Chang'er will go with you!"

"Thank you, uncle."
