Chapter 310 Drinking Alone Under the Moon
Chapter 310 Drinking alone under the moon
Xue Mu was in Luzhou and constantly received news through the Xingluo Formation to grasp the situation in Yizhou.
"Pan Kouzhi woke up, dragging his wounded body to quell the civil strife in the blink of an eye. He is indeed a hero of his generation." Xue Qingqiu sighed: "The Xinyi Sect was so virtuous before, why didn't you let me take the tripod by force? It's even harder now. Done."
"I know that each sect has a secret method to control the cauldron, which has strong power and cannot be taken by force. That's why Pan Kouzhi wanted to cause chaos in Wujiu Temple and use his war partner to seize the cauldron."
"But I can bear it."
"At the critical moment, Xia Wenxuan, Yingyi and others are here to help you? What's more, there is still the right path. At this time, whoever seizes the tripod first will become the target of public criticism and block the gun for the Xinyi Sect." Xue Mu sighed: " Besides, our foundation is not strong and we are in a critical period of growth and development. Even if you can take away the tripod by force, it is not necessarily a good thing to be surrounded by wolves."
"Okay, I know you want to be steady. After all, we shouldn't be in the cusp of the storm now." Xue Qingqiu smiled and said: "Now that Pan Kouzhi has woken up, is this the turning point you have been waiting for?"
"Yes, if the internal strife in the Xinyi Sect subsides, other parties will start to consider cooperation, and will not let the Xinyi Sect take a breath. I estimate that someone will take the lead in the next two days, most likely someone from Ji Qingyuan... said Maybe it’s Eunuch Li who takes action?”
"If Ji Qingyuan wants to take the lead, there will be no agreement. The Xinyi Sect only has one tripod, and everyone wants it, so how can we cooperate? As for the land of Yizhou, it is not in people's eyes."
"This is another matter. How to exchange conditions is a headache for Ji Qingyuan." Xue Mu said with a smile: "At this time, whoever is most anxious will suffer. If Eunuch Li really takes action, then our chances of winning are higher than others. too much."
"That's the truth." Xue Qingqiu smiled and talked about other topics: "The second album of Menglan has been released, and the response has been very enthusiastic. It even included a song "Swords Like Dreams" by Qianxue, which became very popular in Lingzhou. . Qianxue and the Hehuan Sect are preparing for the first singing concert, hoping to open up the situation."
It seems that the plot of the world has changed from the scheming of swords and swords to the romance of music and music. In fact, both of them know that the two are equally important. A sect needs a foundation to stand on. While planning externally, consolidating itself is the key.
Xue Mu then said: "Lingzhou is testing the waters, and then we will focus on attacking the capital. The capital is a place where humanities gather, and there are many princes, ministers and dandies who claim to be elegant. Although the local governments have little sense of existence, they follow the trend of the capital. As long as the capital is opened The situation and the atmosphere can easily spread throughout the world.”
"Understood. By the way, Xia Houdi has seen through Xiao Ai a long time ago and didn't say anything. Now he lets Xiao Ai concentrate on being in charge of the reporter station."
"So Xia Houdi was really good to me and I should repay him in kind."
"Why bother to explain this?" Xue Qingqiu laughed and changed the topic again: ""On Martial Arts" and your "Journey to the West" are spreading like crazy. In just a few days, they have all reached Lingzhou. What's wrong with you? Is there any follow-up to the sermon in Jiu Temple?"
"Yes. Do you really think that "Journey to the West" is purely for Buddhism? It makes sense if you look closely." Xue Mu smiled: "When the time comes, just wear a few vests and write a few analysis articles in various daily newspapers. I am afraid that Buddhism will be Black and bleeding.”
Xue Qingqiu was overjoyed: "I knew you were not so kind. On that day, you should leave Luzhou as soon as possible, or Yuan Zhong will skin you."
"It's almost time." Xue Mu sighed: "In a few days, the summit of good and evil will begin. Xiaochan has disappeared recently. I don't know where to go to study."
The fight for the top spot in Yizhou is a matter for the big boys of the sect. The initiative of the top of the good and evil in Luzhou is a competition between the younger generation. There is no conflict between the two.
Even Xia Wenxuan, who went to Yizhou in person, also left his son to participate in the Summit of Good Demons, which shows how much he attaches importance to him. Xue Qingqiu was also very concerned about what kind of results Yue Xiaochan could achieve in this competition.
Zhengdao is not as interested in this as the Demon Sect, but they are ready to do it, and they don't want to lose their dignity. The Kuang Shamen of Haitian Pavilion and others originally sent elders to Luzhou, but now they have also mobilized the best of the younger generation in the sect to attend the meeting. Yulin Shilei and Leng Qingshi couldn't leave, sharpening their swords every day.
Even Mu Jianli, who had said that there was little point in sharpening her sword before battle, as the date of the competition approached, she was infected by the atmosphere and went into seclusion every day to sharpen her sword energy and get used to her body after the sword body was dissolved.
Xue Mu had nothing to do with this. He was busy working on the daily report with Zhou Captou, and at the same time paying attention to the mining situation of the Xingwang Stone Mine.
It must be admitted that in terms of business and industry, Pu Xiang is indeed a rare talent in this world. Xue Mu did not know how to deal with the specific matters of buying islands and mountains, recruiting manpower capable of diving operations, and constructing seabed mining modules. He did it in an orderly manner. Soon the first batch of ore was shipped out of Echo Island and entrusted to the Escort Bureau to deliver it. Go to Lingzhou.
As long as the Xingyue Sect's mines are not robbed by Hengxingdao, transportation safety is basically not a problem. This should have been a tedious matter, visible to the naked eye, on the right track.
At the same time, Pu Xiang actually still had the energy to promote hard pens. Taking advantage of people's interest in journalists' writing methods, he joined hands with Zonghengdao Qian Duoduo and successfully sold tens of thousands of Shidai pens in Luzhou. Got a vote.
Xue Mu couldn't help but admire him. What kind of Xingyueyanyang did this guy get? However, this guy is a little different from Zonghengdao. Puxiang is more practical and realistic in the side of Zonghengdao. It is more like each sect of the righteous path has talents like him who specialize in this path, so that it can operate smoothly. Having this person in Xingyue Sect also reduces his burden in many aspects.
After finishing the conversation with Xue Qingqiu and leaving the Xingluo Formation, Xue Mu prepared to go back to the house to read the manuscript.
The daily newspaper was actually a ten-day newspaper. After repeated discussions between Xue Mu and Zhou Baotou, they still believed that it was more reasonable to publish one issue every ten days, so the first local newspaper was named "Luzhou Xunbao", following the trend of the live daily newspaper. Start publishing.
The news of the Xun Bao was released, and the people of Luzhou were very happy to hear it. They had long been aroused by the live daily newspaper to read newspapers. The Xun Bao also satisfied everyone's expectations and gave Xingyue Reporter a reason to continue to exist confidently.
The model of serializing works has also attracted many unlucky literati to contribute. After all, it was the first local daily newspaper and could not be ignored. Xue Mu immediately became the editor-in-chief of the first issue and was responsible for reviewing manuscripts and determining which manuscripts could be adopted.
The draft is now almost finalized and should be published tomorrow...
There were many and complicated things. Xue Mu was holding his head dizzyly. When he was walking back to the house while passing by the yard, he was suddenly stunned for a moment.
A waning moon hangs like a hook in the sky. A woman is sitting on the roof with her knees clasped, looking at the stars leisurely, holding a wine bottle in one hand and drinking casually. She has a charming charm and a leisurely attitude, but there is an obvious loneliness. .
Zhuo Qingqing.
Xue Mu stopped and looked at her drinking alone at the moon, and the words "Mr. Xian Gong" simulated in the evil spirits came to mind.
That was her strongest memory.
I originally planned to chat with her when I returned from the sea, but things kept happening and I ignored it. I don't know what she thought when I was in Mu Jianli and Zhu Chenyao's gentle hometown all day long.
On the face of it, she had no complaints, and even took Pu Xiang and Long Xiaozhao out to sea again, working hard on the mining business... Pu Xiang's operation went smoothly, and Zhuo Qingqing's assistance accounted for a lot of the credit.
But she didn’t know how many times she had drank alone to Yue like this when no one was around?
The stars are waning, the moon is shining, the cicadas are chirping, and the evening breeze is blowing. The lonely figure of Guanghan is deeply imprinted in Xue Mu's heart, forming a heart-wrenching picture.
