Chapter 69: Dig the Hole and Wait for Fang Jie to Fall In Part Two
Fang Jie couldn’t help but think that if all the previous emperors of Great Sui had such abilities, then it wasn’t hard to understand how Great Sui was still prosperous after more than 100 years. If the future emperors were just like Heaven-Bless Emperor Yang Yi, then Great Sui might unite the entire world after five generations.
Just as Fang Jie pondered to himself and blanked out, Qi Lin and the other three discovered Chen Qingshan, Fang Jie, and Da Quan who were chilling on a tree branch.
Tie Nu who was the oldest shook his head, telling the other three not to go up. Although the time limit of 15 years had passed, none of them dared to relax.
They weren’t only afraid of the monks who chased after them tirelessly for 15 years; they were also afraid that the man behind all this might kill them to hide this secret.
…
Spiritual Master Xiao peeked out of the window through the gap between the curtains and was pleased by this scene. Although not many people were here, he was sure that this incident would circulate in the Capital in a few days. Then, people would talk about another miracle of the Daoist Sect. This story wasn’t as great as the story about peach blossoms, but its effect at this moment might be greater.
The secret edict from the Emperor said that Great Sui was going to attack Mongo-Yuan, so Spiritual Master Xiao was asked to eliminate as much fear that people of Great Sui had toward the Buddhist Sect as possible. This was insanely tough in other places, but it was not impossible in Great Sui. Compared to making people give up a religion, it was much easier to make them adopt a religion.
Spiritual Master Xiao knew that the Emperor was a courageous yet detailed person. Before launching such a big war, he was going to consider and prepare for everything. If the citizens were brave and confident, then Great Sui could fight this war with a possibility of victory. If the citizens were afraid, this war would result in the complete defeat of Great Sui. The soldiers of Great Sui were the most elite in the world, but it didn’t mean that they would be invincible forever. Only with the citizens of Great Sui believing that they wouldn’t lose this world-changing war and supporting the military wholeheartedly could the soldiers unleash their most powerful strength.
Therefore, Spiritual Master Xiao knew that he must take care of this task that the Emperor issued him.
If this task was completed, it wasn’t only beneficial to the Emperor. Although the Daoist Sect enjoyed a unique status in Great Sui, Spiritual Master Xiao knew that the Buddhist Sect was much stronger in many aspects.
If the Daoist Sect didn’t try its best to grow and develop, it couldn’t be compared to the Buddhist Sect after several generations, let alone this generation.
The Daoist Sect was still trying to expand in Great Sui, yet the Buddhist Sect was already spread around the world.
When Spiritual Master Xiao was a lazy daoist who traveled around and told positive prophecies to rich people for money, he didn’t have such an ambitious goal. But when he met Yang Yi who was still the Fourth Prince back then and got 100 silver taels and a promise, his fate changed drastically in silence.
When the Fourth Prince became the Emperor, Spiritual Master Xiao became the Imperial Teacher.
Spiritual Master Xiao became the Imperial Teacher not only because he spread Daoism in Great Sui. When Fourth Prince Yang Yi fought for the throne cautiously, Spiritual Master Xiao’s work was irreplaceable. After one incident, the Emperor trusted him greatly.
Seeing that the reaction of the people in the area grew heated enough, Spiritual Master Xiao quickly said something to the little daoist outside his carriage, and that little daoist quickly ran to Phoenix-Chirp Daoist and whispered into his ear.
Then, Phoenix-Chirp Daoist nodded and walked to the owner of the ox who was standing beside the pit and groaning alongside his ox.
Phoenix-Chirp Daoist ordered the little daoist to take out one silver tael and pass it to that farmer before saying, “Injuring your ox was unavoidable. This silver tael is compensation. Your ox injured its bones, so it probably can’t plow the farmland anymore. With this money, you can buy a new ox. If you have other requests, you can find me inside the Capital.”
The fact that this high-level daoist talked to this farmer in such a genial tone won him respect from other townsfolks.
Some people started to clap and cheer.
