Dream Journey from Shaolin

Chapter 399 Yan Wushuang's Gender
After Wu Chuchu heard Jiang Ming's words, she raised her neck and introduced:
"The Fire Phoenix Sect is indeed one of the strongest Taoist sects in the Imperial Capital, but it is still inferior to our Imperial Capital Taoist Academy, because the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy is directly under the imperial court.

It contains not only the exercises and spells of all the Taoist sects that the imperial court has exterminated, but also various Taoist pills that enhance the strength provided by the imperial court. It is far from comparable! "

"Oh? That's quite powerful. What is the grade of the most powerful Taoist in the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy?"

Jiang Ming nodded and continued to ask,

With the support of the imperial court, it is not uncommon to be able to cultivate a large number of high-level powerhouses, but the main thing is to see if they can cultivate the top Taoists.
"The most powerful Taoist is of course our dean. It is said that the dean is a Taoist who has reached the third rank!"

Wu Chuchu said with a full face of admiration, obviously, the dean of the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy is a very powerful existence in her heart.

Hearing Wu Chuchu's introduction, Jiang Ming had some understanding of this Imperial Capital Daoist Academy.
However, in Jiang Ming's view, the Imperial Capital Daoist Academy and the Daoist sects of this world are two completely different systems, and should not be confused with each other.
Compared with Taoist sects such as Xuanmu Sect, Huangdu College is more similar to the academy of Confucianism when Confucians went to school.
If you find that your child has the qualifications of a Taoist, you can spend money to send it to the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy to study. After several years or more than ten years of study, after becoming a qualified Taoist,
You can choose to go home after graduation and inherit the family business, or you can choose to join the imperial court and work in a Taoist organization related to the imperial court to obtain resources and continue to practice.

But the sects of Taoism are different. They recruit disciples through selection, regardless of their birth, only based on their aptitude, and all the resources for cultivation in the early stage are basically provided by the sect.

However, after completing the studies, one would belong to the sect for the rest of his life, even if he went out of the sect to practice, he would eventually return to the sect.

In fact, if you compare carefully, you can find that the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy is like a school, teaching a large number of Taoists in batches and on a large scale.
The Taoist sect takes the elite route. According to the qualifications of each disciple, they are exclusively guided by a special master.
Therefore, Jiang Ming felt that if one only looked at the number, the Royal Taoist Academy must be stronger, but in terms of real Taoist masters, it is estimated that there will be more Taoist sects with a long history.
Otherwise, he would not be able to guarantee his status and not be completely swallowed up by the court when the court is so powerful.

"Miss Chuchu, I heard that the most powerful sects of Jin Dynasty are all near the imperial capital. Can you tell me which ones?"

Compared with the Royal Taoist Academy, Jiang Ming is more interested in powerful and ancient sects like the Fire Phoenix Sect. After all, what he wants to establish is not an academy-like Taoist Academy, but a similar sect.

"Well, if you want to say that there are six Taoist sects recognized as the strongest in the Jin Dynasty, they are basically located on the highest mountains near the imperial capital. They are the Fire Phoenix Sect, the Azure Dragon Sect, the Xuanwu Sect, and the White Tiger Sect. , Kui Niu Sect and Qilin Sect!"

Wu Chuchu quickly recalled what he had learned about the sect of Daoist Daoists in class, and began to introduce it to Jiang Ming in detail.

……

"What, you said that the Fire Phoenix Sect only recruits female disciples?"

A moment later, when Wu Chuchu introduced the Fire Phoenix Sect, Jiang Ming suddenly showed a look of surprise,

"Yes, it is said that it is because Huofeng's Taoist exercises are only suitable for women to practice, so only female disciples with fire aptitude are accepted!"

Wu Chuchu explained,

"That's it, it's okay, you continue to talk!"

Jiang Ming nodded, motioning for Wu Chuchu to continue,
In fact, Jiang Ming was very surprised when he heard that the Fire Phoenix Sect only accepted female disciples, because he remembered that Yan Wushuang said at that time that he was favored by the elders of the Fire Phoenix Sect and accepted him as a disciple himself.
As for Yan Wushuang, he was obviously a man, and he clearly remembered that although the other party was very handsome, he had an Adam's apple.

But thinking about it carefully now, Jiang Ming suddenly discovered all the details of getting along with each other at that time, except for the Adam's apple, the other party seemed not to be acting like a man in all other aspects.
At that critical time, Jiang Ming didn’t know that there was such a thing as illusion in this world. Now it seems that Yan Wushuang’s gender should be female, but the illusion may have been cast on his body, or some magic weapon that can change his appearance may be worn. ,
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming suddenly heaved a sigh of relief for some unknown reason.

Over the years, Yan Wushuang's appearance would occasionally flash in Jiang Ming's mind, making him always feel that there was something wrong with his sexual orientation.

For this reason, he always deliberately ignores the matter of going to Zhongling County to find Yan Wushuang. After all, the other party is also his first friend when he came to this world.
Now, knowing that Yan Wushuang turned out to be a daughter, he finally got over the knot that had been stuck in his heart all this time.
Perhaps, after he has dealt with the affairs of the imperial capital, he can take some time to visit Yan Wushuang, after all, the other party said that he would treat him to the best pastries in the area.

In the evening, Jiang Ming and Zhu Shiqing were invited to Shangshu Mansion,

In fact, Zhu Shiqing didn't know about Jiang Ming's rescue of Wu Chuchu's life at first, but he was told by Wu Shangshu during the day at the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

He just knew that Jiang Ming had his own secret, and his strength was unfathomable as a fourth-rank Taoist. He had been traveling in the major cities in the northern border for the past few years, and had also stayed in the northern border city for a while.

Overall, the whole thank you banquet gave Jiang Ming a good feeling,
Because that Wu Shangshu did not invite other people, the whole banquet was mainly composed of Wu Shangshu's family and Jiang Mingshi brothers.
However, through this banquet, Jiang Ming also roughly knew the whole story of Wu Chuchu being hunted down.
Speaking of the root cause of this matter, it is actually related to the second senior brother Zhu Shiqing.

It turned out that since Zhu Shiqing took office as the Minister of Criminal Affairs, some old cases in the imperial capital had also been uncovered by him, and many of these old cases that had been dealt with indifferently were related to some dignitaries in the imperial capital.
Obviously, no matter which world it is, as long as there are classes, exploitation and oppression cannot be avoided, especially in this world where power is paramount.

Although there is a system of Confucianism in this world, the living conditions of the local people can be identified through the increase or decrease of the power of luck, but that is for the general,
For example, if the magistrate of a certain county is brutal and the people in the county are full of complaints, then there will be a very obvious change in the power of luck, which cannot be concealed at all.

But if the county magistrate manages the entire county well, but only secretly targets some individuals, commits murder, arson, and looting of cheap money, and handles the beginning and end well, so that other people in the county will not find out, then basically it will not happen. what effect.
