Seven Strings in Dreams

Chapter 118: Coaching Elders

At that time, there were some things that Monk didn't want Ulan to know.

After all, Munch was in a fog, confused and unable to figure out the answer.

But Monk fell into complete failure just because he didn't understand women's minds.

If he had told Wulan earlier, Wulan would not have been unprepared.

As for Muren, he lost his beloved, and for a long time, he quit drinking all day to relieve his sorrow. Munch did not talk much about these troubles with him.

Time is the best medicine for healing. All the brothers hope that Muren can cheer up, but they don't know how to persuade him.

Anyone who had this kind of thing would be devastated, and no amount of comfort could soothe Muren's inner pain.

They were grown men, but they couldn't say much. What's more, the more they said, the more mistakes they made. They could only occasionally accompany Mu Ren to drink a few glasses.

In fact, Muren is much better now. At least he is not as depressed as before. He has lost weight and his mental state is much better.

No one knew what he was thinking, and he was unwilling to say more. After all, Muren's sweetheart was not well known to Monk and the others, so it was inconvenient to say more.

I heard that the woman was very popular at the time, on par with the current Saint, but she was very low-key. Unfortunately, she was so beautiful that she died young, and even her body was nowhere to be found.

How can the election of the Saint be fair? The truth is so cruel.

Muren was unwilling to tell them more about these things, and it was for their own good. After all, the person he fell in love with was not an ordinary person.

Later, Monk was busy dealing with the saint, and Jiayu was in dire straits every day. The two of them hadn't visited Muren for some time.

Without the appearance of these two protagonists, those younger brothers who used to join in the fun didn’t dare to provoke Mu Ren.

So even though danger was approaching, Mu Ren was completely unaware of it.

Mu Ren and the Saint had a feud for a long time, but Mu Ren had no evidence. Now that the old hatred was new, Mu Ren really wanted to cut the Saint into pieces.

The incident happened suddenly, and Muren was caught off guard. He had no choice but to injure himself to save the other party. This decision was good for him, Wulan, and Monk.

However, the subsequent development was not as he expected.

Monk appeared at the wrong time, or maybe everything was just designed.

He saved Ulan, but was unable to explain to Monk in time, so everything had to go on as it was.

After the incident, the person who believed him the most was Jiayu, because Jiayu was a bystander and not a party involved.

Jiayu believes Muren, but he can't contact Monk either.

They tried every possible means but just couldn't get in touch with Monk.

There is a special way of communication between the brothers. Even if one of them has gone into seclusion, they can still know that the other has contacted them when they come out.

Monk hid himself on purpose, thinking it was good for everyone.

But even if Monk didn't hide, he might not receive the news from Jiayu and others.

Ali, the mother of Monk, would not let the news reach Monk. She had always looked down on Wulan, and the mother and son had fought over this matter.

She always felt that Monk was just going against her out of habit, not because he really liked Wulan.

Even if the two of them were truly in love, she would not agree, because she couldn't stand seeing other people having a good relationship.

Why is it that everyone else is in pairs, but she is alone? She and the saint don't like each other, but they are birds of a feather.

The two femme fatales hit it off immediately on this matter.

Fortunately, Monk won the fight between her and her in the end, otherwise Monk would never have had a chance to succeed.

Some things are determined by time and fate. Maybe Monk and Ulan are destined to experience these.

It must be said that few of the people they played with when they were young seem to have smooth relationships. I don't know if there is something wrong with the feng shui.

If Monk hadn't avoided him at the beginning, perhaps the ending between him and Ulan would have been different!

Monk had no one to vent his guilt and self-blame to, so he could only avoid seeing others and choose to bear it alone.

The initial blow was too great, and since then, the brothers have never had a chance to talk things out, and this has become an unsolvable knot in their hearts.

Over the years, Jiayu only dared to meet with Muren in secret, and every time Gele helped to block them.

Gler knew a little bit about it, but he was annoyed by love affairs and he didn't like gossip.

Gele didn't need to do anything, he just had to pretend to go on a mission with Jiayu.

Then Jiayu disappeared halfway, and Gelu ran to a safe place to practice. When Jiayu was done, he would sneak back to join him.

In recent years, the three brothers have been busy with their own affairs.

In Mengke's eyes, Wulan and Muren have a group of children, Jiayu has a reliable brother, they are no longer alone, and he himself has a new mission.

Monk was busy expanding the power of the temple, repairing the altar, training talents and building a villa.

He also had to attend some nonsensical gatherings from time to time, and even had less time to study spells. His cultivation and formations had improved by leaps and bounds, but his personality became increasingly cold.

Apart from the few guardians who accompanied him and the old people in the villa, other people rarely saw him.

Even in the villa, he rarely goes out, and occasionally goes deep into the mountains. No one knows what he does there.

At the beginning, the older generation thought that Monk would lose to his cousin Ali. No one knew how Monk won that battle.

In short, the choice of the altar will not be wrong, as there is only one high priest in the tribe.

Those mysterious old men had to accept the facts.

Over the years, Monk never took the initiative to contact Jiayu and the others. Even if Jiayu and the others took the initiative to approach him, Monk would avoid them.

Jiayu also had to avoid the temple because of its suppression.

In addition, Muren often disappeared, and when the protagonist was not around, even if Jiayu met Monk, he didn't know where to start.

What can be changed by saying something insignificant?

The original plan was for Quan Monk and Wulan. Jiayu and Muren were all behind the scenes, but they were not the ones who actually carried out the plan.

The two of them spent a large sum of money to hire a group of people, who were not from Shuangling Island. They took the money to do the job without asking why.

Neither party in the transaction will leave any information, and if the buyer requests it afterwards, they will erase the relevant memory.

Once those memories are taken away, there is no way to recover them, and the short-term loss of memory will not have any impact on them.

So, afterwards they only knew that they had carried out the mission, but they could not remember the specific details.

This is the money they make, so as long as they can afford the price, it’s not a big loss for just one or two insignificant memories.

Once is new, twice is familiar, so there were Wu Na and Yi Xi.

But they had to admit that these things were unfair to Ulan.

But some things really can't be had in the best of both worlds.

Mu Ren has been wandering most of the time in recent years, and no one knows why.

Jiayu also often went on missions, which lasted for as short as three to five months or as long as a year and a half.

Although going out on a mission is full of dangers, it is more comfortable than staying in the temple.

Who knows what the saint thinks, after so many years, she still feels resentful. She is no longer obsessed with Monk, nor does she want Jiayu to leave the temple.

At every elders' meeting, Jiayu and Gele sat at the edge of the corner, but still could not escape the ridicule.

It seemed as if it had become a habit for those people to speak ill of them every time, and they would feel uncomfortable if they didn't say a few words to them.

Legend has it that there are twelve supreme elders in the temple who rarely show up.

The power of the temple is concentrated in the chief elder, that is, thirty-four deacon elders and two law enforcement elders.

There are also 72 lowest-level elders who are in charge of teaching. People usually know their names and add the word "elder" at the end. They are responsible for guiding newcomers and troublemakers.

Behind the scenes, everyone respectfully called the twelve supreme elders the Immortal Elders, the thirty-four deacon elders and the two law enforcement elders the Great Elders, and the seventy-two teaching elders the Minor Elders.

These are the changes that have only occurred in recent years, and they are all reorganized with reference to the major colleges. This can be regarded as a great contribution of this Saint. Although it is a contribution, it is just a copycat.

Jiayu and Gelu were just teaching elders, the most common minor elders. The two of them were elected purely because they had worked for a long time, and the temple didn't have that many candidates, so they were chosen just to make up the number.

If it weren't for the lack of numbers, they might not even be able to become a junior elder. They might only be a teacher or manager in the outer sect.

The outer sect teachers and stewards were mainly responsible for the daily purchases of the Holy Mountain, as well as teaching the outer sect disciples the rules of the Holy Mountain and the basics of cultivation. They were even responsible for managing the slaves brought by the children of the great families.

There are too many trivial matters. If I were really in the outer sect, I would not have time to go out for missions. If I just rely on the little cultivation resources I receive every month, I would have to wait until the end of time to improve my cultivation.

If the two sisters hadn't had an accident, they might have been deacons and elders. They could only stop here.

Even the minor elders are divided into different levels.

Some of the teaching elders were very leisurely, and they would give lectures on the Holy Mountain on a fixed day every month. On weekdays, they only needed to complete the teaching tasks to receive cultivation resources.

They don't need to lead the team to travel, they just need to talk about their own cultivation experiences and the entry rules.

Some elders have too many disciples, so they ask the junior disciples to lead the new disciples. Sometimes they can also have a few assistants to help.

Jiayu and Gelu were traveling with their disciples, not their own disciples. After all, they didn't have that many disciples.

They have little choice but to usually take some small fry out to practice.
