Chapter 389 Planning(2/2)
Speaking of rebellion, Chi Xuan remembered a story his master once told him.
That happened fifty years ago.
A highly respected monk in the imperial court rose up.
As soon as it broke out, it caused a huge wave, with large armies arrayed and high-level cultivators appearing frequently, launching an unprecedented war. This was why we had fifty years of rest and recuperation. What happened after that was just a small fight.
The monks who were called Taibao along the Huaihe River for 800 miles finally surrendered to the imperial court and sought an official position.
…
The sword is flying.
Chi Xuan has returned to Chiyang Palace.
Chiyang Palace was quiet. Chi Xuan released his spiritual consciousness and suddenly found that there were many more people, all gathered in Chiyang Palace.
His expression darkened, and he thought to himself, the court's actions were so fast.
Before he could react, soldiers had been arranged to stay at Chiyang Palace.
But upon closer inspection, I realized that he was not a soldier.
Chi Xuan turned around and entered the Taoist temple and found that these people were common people who were sick. He knew most of them. The leader who gathered in the Taoist temple was Zhou Hui.
"Taoist Priest?"
Zhou Hui, who was writing something at his desk, suddenly became surprised when he saw Chi Xuan. He heard that something big happened in Long County, so he stepped up his efforts to gather the sick people. Unexpectedly, the Taoist priest would return to the Taoist temple at this moment.
This gave him confidence.
Seeing Chi Xuan's Taoist robe stained red with blood, he was shocked: "Taoist Master, you..."
Chi Xuan waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, these are not my blood."
"Is there a man named He San who has come to seek refuge?"
Zhou Hui shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it."
After speaking, he carefully observed Chi Xuan to make sure that what Chi Xuan said was true and that there were indeed no injuries on his body. Then he said: "Taoist Master, while you are not here, I asked them to go to the surrounding village chiefs to search for the people. A total of
Five hundred and seventy-two people gathered, most of them young and strong."
Those who can stand it are mostly young adults.
Old people and children who contract the disease will soon look like Old Man Yang.
Chi Xuan was shocked. He didn't expect that there were only about ten people there, but in two or three days Zhou Hui had organized so many people, and they were all young and strong.
With these people, and the devil's magic skills, conquering the county government will not be a problem.
Zhou Hui took out a rough map from behind the straw mat, laid it flat on the table, and picked up the wick to make the flame brighter.
Then he suppressed his excitement and said slowly: "Taoist, the county government won't notice us now. As long as you cure those people and make them stronger, we can take over the county seat."
"When the time comes, under the guise of identity and paying taxes to the superiors, it will be enough to control the county government in your own hands."
"Based on Jixian County, we will capture Longxian County to the east and guard the main road of Longhe River. We will capture Qixian County to the west and block the mountain passes to form a situation that is vulnerable and difficult to attack."
"If we expand to the surrounding counties and cities, continue to heal the people, and give them the strength to join us, we can take over Juling County."
"Finally, face the world, take healing as the main doctrine as a supplement, and unite the hearts of the world."
"When the time comes, use the whole world to attack the imperial court and take its place."
The more Zhou Hui spoke, the more confident he became. He looked at Chi Xuan with a keen eye and said in a low voice: "Of course, we also need a monk who is strong enough to stand in and resist the pressure of the court, that is you, Taoist Priest."
"As long as we move secretly, we can gather all the people in Juling County, and then the court will also need to weigh it."
Chi Xuan looked at Zhou Hui in shock, whose face was illuminated by candlelight.
Such a path has never even occurred to him. He just felt that he needed to continuously improve his cultivation and then overthrow the imperial court, but he had no specific plan.
"Taoist Priest, you have power and you have a way to give us power. Why can't you help us survive?"
