Fish swimming around the world
Chapter 468: Sima Linfeng, a man obsessed with fame
Jiang Fan nodded: "Be careful, don't be too obvious. The second brother is not a simple guy, don't let him use you."
Nangong Tongdao: "I understand, so my lord, except for the money for turnover, everything else will be sent to Mount Li as soon as possible. It's really unsafe here."
Jiang Fan smiled: "Do you trust me so much?"
Nangong Xin said carelessly: "Complete trust. Besides, I know that it's very easy for you to get rich.
Now the Nangong family's wealth has tripled in a year, isn't it all the work of the young master? I made a lot of money just from the Wei Kingdom. Now I think wealth is just a number. Fortunately, these numbers can help the master do bigger things, otherwise I would think it's too much."
Jiang Fan couldn't help but say: "You, the groom, are becoming more and more intelligent."
Nangong Tongdao: "Following you, my horizons have been broadened by thousands of miles. Even Prince Xie may not know how big the world is. To be honest, I have had higher ideas for a long time."
Jiang Fan praised: "Vision determines ideals. You are growing very fast."
Nangong Tongdao: "It's all because of you."
"Okay, stop flattering. Save some energy to flatter your wife tonight. I will leave tomorrow. You can handle the rest of the things yourself."
Nangong Xin nodded and smiled, but filled a glass of wine: "No matter what, you have to finish this wedding wine..."
——
It can be said that the Sima family is indeed a huge family. This family is mainly divided into three branches.
First, the ruler of Jin State, currently headed by the King of Jin, is also the direct line of the Sima family. Sima Jing, Sima Ji, and Princess Sima Weiwei are all from this line.
The other two collateral branches are the Jin Wangshu faction, which fell into decline because of the failure in the competition for the throne. Now, this branch is headed by Sima Linfeng, and Sima Tutu is Sima Linfeng's third son.
The third faction is the least valued collateral branch, whose ancestor is the son of a concubine. Originally, there was a brilliant figure in this branch, Sima Ru, but unfortunately he was suppressed by the direct line, and because of his identity, it was difficult for him to make a name for himself. As a result, Sima Ru had to flee abroad and became the national teacher of Wei State by accident.
In other words, now there are only two branches left in Jin State, the Jin Wang and Wang Shu. This also led to Sima Linfeng's embarrassing situation. After all, it is uncomfortable to be guarded against every day.
But fortunately, Sima Linfeng's faction was not extremely suppressed. It is probably because Sima Linfeng likes fame more than power, and it can even be said that he is crazy about fame. This person became a disciple of Yan Congwen, a literary master in his early years. Under his guidance, he entered the Tao with literature and became the leading master of calligraphy in Jin State.
Sima Linfeng, who was obsessed with the art of calligraphy and formation, had less and less interest in the throne. He spent his days either asking questions in Wenqiu or making friends with famous people from all over the world. This gradually made King Jin feel relieved.
A few months ago, Sima Linfeng received a secret invitation from the Northern Sect Buddhist Master Cihang to jointly organize a demon-killing conference. He had no intention of getting involved in this matter, but he unexpectedly met Taihua Sword Immortal in the Northern Sect. After a secret talk, his attitude suddenly changed. He immediately initiated this matter with Huang Sanqi, the leader of the Huanglong Gang, and the Northern Sect Buddhist Master Cihang.
As he ran around and appealed, his reputation was rising day by day, and he was praised by his master Yan Congwen.
Especially since Jiang Fan came to Jin, Master Yan privately exhorted him to run the Demon-killing League well. Jiang Fan was causing trouble in Jin this time, and for the sake of state affairs, it was inconvenient to take action, but he hoped that the Demon-killing League could eradicate the root of the evil and bring peace to the world.
And he solemnly promised that once he completed this task, he would insist on him entering Wenqiu and taking over his position as the Grand Master of Wenqiu.
This was incredible, as the Grand Master was second only to Yan Sheng. For Sima Linfeng, who was keen on fame, this temptation was fatal.
So, his interest grew, and he was not even interested in the matter of the two kings fighting for the throne. He was busy secretly organizing literary masters to participate in the Demon Killing Conference all day long.
As for Jiang Fan, he just watched coldly, thinking that as long as the Demon Killing Alliance was established, it would be your doomsday, and now you can jump around.
Finally, there were still five days before the conference, and he also won over hundreds of literary celebrities as he wished and prepared to set off.
At this time, he was so famous that he even received funding from the Yang family, one of the sixteen families in Jin State, and prepared hundreds of luxurious and comfortable carriages for him to travel.
Sima Linfeng, who had never had such an honor and such a beautiful scene, was simply too proud.
Especially when he saw the Yang family member who had once despised him being so respectful to him, he felt so happy.
This young man named Yang Qingshan really gave him enough face, calling him Mr. Sima, which made him feel a little flattered.
Of course, the more he looked at this yellow-faced young man, the more he liked him, and he immediately promised to take him in to broaden his horizons.
The happy young man of the Yang family presented the treasure of the Yang family on the spot - Mr. Zhuge Fulong's calligraphy.
That's not all, he also gave the famous prostitute Bai Lianhua, who was bought by the Yang family at a high price, to serve him.
Of course, there was a purpose. This young man Yang Qingshan admired the Taihua Holy Land since he was a child, and he wanted to enter Taihua to practice. This time he just hoped that he could say a few good words in front of the Taihua Sword Immortal.
This little thing, Sima Linfeng immediately agreed.
If people take the right path, they will usually get smoother and smoother.
Just as he was about to leave, someone else came to see him. It was a skinny Taoist priest who looked to be in his sixties and a handsome little Taoist boy.
These two were introduced by a literary master. They were also very famous. They were from the Tianshi Dao of Longhu Mountain. The old Taoist priest's name was Huitong, and the little Taoist boy was actually of the same generation as him, with the name Huiming.
According to the introducer, this time it was mainly the Taoist Huitong who came to participate in the matter of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, and the young Taoist priest came with him to gain experience and broaden his horizons. But he privately reminded Sima Linfeng——
In fact, the old Taoist priest is not important, he is just a guardian, what is important is the young Taoist priest.
And the ability of the young Taoist priest surprised Sima Linfeng.
It is said that this young Taoist priest was born with a clear mind and was born with a heavenly eye, which has the supernatural power of the heavenly eye.
This is incredible. Not only in Taoism, but even in Buddhism, there is a saying of heavenly eyes. It is one of the six supernatural powers of Buddhism, but this thing is too mysterious and no one can cultivate it.
But you actually said that this young Taoist priest was born with a heavenly eye? Sima Linfeng was also full of disbelief.
The famous scholar was full of awe and told him not to talk nonsense and to respect him as the little immortal. He also said that he didn't believe it at first, but after witnessing the facts several times, he couldn't help but believe it.
Sima Linfeng was still skeptical: "...Can you please...Little Taoist Master demonstrate it?"
The scholar pondered and said: "This..., it's not impossible...but the conditions are harsh, you need to burn incense and worship, and you need blood from your heart. If it's a small matter, one drop is enough. If it's a big matter...it depends on the situation."
Sima Linfeng was surprised: "Is there such a thing?"
Worship is easy to say, but blood from the heart is the source of life, who would be willing to give it up easily?
"This...is not enough..."
Seeing the scholar hesitating, Sima Linfeng became more suspicious. Seeing this, the man had to walk closer and whisper: "Little Taoist Master is still young and doesn't want to practice, so sometimes there are inaccuracies..."
