Chapter 415 - 319: County Head Tang Xuanzang!_2
Dao Xuan?
Xuanqing was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that the other party should be here to report the situation, and then sent a message to let him in.
It has been several years since they last met.
Dao Xuan’s ‘monk’ aura has completely disappeared, replaced by a aura of purity and natural Daoist charm.
“Disciple Dao Xuan pays respects to Sir.” Dao Xuan’s expression was respectful, his hands forming a Yin-Yang finger gesture, raised above his head in greeting.
“Hmm.”
Xuanqing gave a slight nod, and then asked faintly, “So the five-year deadline for Tang Xuanzang has arrived?”
“Sir is wise. There are still a few days left until the five-year deadline, but…”
The expression on Dao Xuan’s face was conflicted as he carefully said, “However… Tang Xuanzang asked me if he could stay a little longer.
Stay longer?
???
Upon hearing this,
Xuanqing couldn’t help but feel surprised.
It should be known that,
Tang Xuanzang is the incarnation of the Golden Cicada for the tenth time, and his desire to ‘fetch the scriptures’ has long been engraved in the depths of his
true spirit.
Under such circumstances, shouldn’t he seize the opportunity to leave Black Wind Country and continue his journey to the West to fetch the scriptures?
Why would he take the initiative to ask for more time to stay?
With such an unusual situation, even Xuanqing couldn’t help but feel curious, wanting to understand the reasons behind his actions.
“What’s going on?” Xuanqing asked.
“Sir, it’s a long story. It starts when Tang Xuanzang entered the factory to work, made outstanding contributions, and obtained the household registration green card of our Black Wind Country.
Dao Xuan wore a strange expression.
Soon after,
He began to recount the events.
“In the first year of coming to Black Wind Country, Tang Xuanzang improved… According to the rules, he should have obtained the patent for this, with 20% of the revenue for the following ten years. However, he donated all of his revenue…”
“In the second year, Tang Xuanzang studied mechanical manufacturing, then participated in railway construction work, solving several problems in the railway industry, and donating all his revenue as well.”
“In the third year, Tang Xuanzang was selected as an outstanding young man in Black Wind City, and according to the law, Her Majesty granted him the Black Wind Country’s household registration green card.
“in the fourth year, which was last year, Tang Xuanzang resigned from his position as a railway engineer and, with his excellent abilities, entered the administrative department and was eventually transferred to the neighboring Sha City as the county head of its subordinate Yangcheng County.”
As Dao Xuan recounted, Tang Xuanzang’s actions over the past five years unfolded like a series of slides.
Frankly speaking,
When Xuanqing heard all that Tang Xuanzang had done,
His amazement was beyond words, never expecting that Tang Xuanzang would turn out to be such a talented individual.
From an ordinary working monk to an engineer, and then finally becoming a county head, the progress he made was almost incredible.
Xuanqing was curious about what drove Tang Xuanzang to reach such heights.
And for what reasons, despite the five-year deadline, did he still want to request more time?
Then,
Xuanqing learned from Dao Xuan about Tang Xuanzang’s reasons for not wanting to leave temporarily.
Dao Xuan explained:
“The reason Tang Xuanzang doesn’t want to leave after five years has something to do with the county he was assigned to.”
“Yangcheng County is one of the poorest counties under Sha City, and since Tang Xuanzang started his tenure, he has implemented poverty alleviation reforms.”
“His main strategy for poverty alleviation is to establish social technical institutes in Yangcheng County, encourage local people to learn technical skills, and recruit factories with matching technology to be established there.” “At present… The project managed by Tang Xuanzang is about to come to an end. The first graduates have graduated, and the construction of the corresponding machinery processing factories and canned food processing factories is almost over.”
“So, he wants to stay a little longer to complete the poverty alleviation project in his hands before heading west.”
After speaking for a long time,
Finally,
Dao Xuan finished telling Tang Xuanzang’s story, and then looked at his master. Deep down, he hoped to keep Tang Xuanzang here, as he was a good comrade with a down-to-earth attitude. But in the end, it all depended on his master’s decision.
At this moment,
Xuanqing couldn’t help but marvel, waving his hand and saying, “Since Tang Xuanzang wants to stay, let him stay, and let him decide for how long.” Now that he had reached the level of Daluo Jinxian, even Tathagata would panic in the face of his self-destructive power. As for Guanyin… well, she probably couldn’t withstand the power of his Daluo self-destructive force.
With this mindset, he took action with fewer concerns. Perhaps allowing Tang Xuanzang to stay for a longer time would cause dissatisfaction among the Shimen sect, but what of it?
Dissatisfied?… Just hold it back!
“Yes, Sir, this disciple will immediately inform Tang Xuanzang. Upon receiving Sir’s command, Dao Xuan bowed and slowly stepped back. However.
“Wait a moment.”
“Sir?” Dao Xuan stopped, puzzled.
“As for Tang Xuanzang’s matter, I’ll personally inform him. You can go take care of your affairs.”
Xuanqing instructed with a smile.
“Yes!” Dao Xuan immediately responded.
But his heart was filled with astonishment, never expecting Sir to give Tang Xuanzang’s matter such importance, even going personally into action.
He watched Dao Xuan leave.
Xuanqing stood up, with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance. The reason why he decided to personally visit Tang Xuanzang was his curiosity about the enormous changes happening in Tang Xuanzang’s heart. Furthermore, he had been in closed-door cultivation for a long time and had no clue about the cultivation path beyond the status of Daluo Jinxian. So, he thought of venturing out to relax and take his mind off closed-door cultivation. “I wonder just how much progress Tang Xuanzang has made in these five years!”
Xuanqing said with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
The next moment.
Buzz-
Accompanied by the distortion of space, his figure disappeared from the Taichu Palace.
Sha City!
Although it was called Sha City, the environment had long been restored to its lush scenery of green waters and mountains after the Yellow Wind Monster died and the Black Wind Country’s Earth Deity spent years recuperating it.
However, the beautiful scenery did not mean the people were wealthy. On the contrary, the city was economically far behind the southern regions, being closer to West Niu Hezhou.
For example, Yangcheng County, under Sha City’s jurisdiction, was consistently ranked as one of the poorest counties in Black Wind Country.
Inside the study room of Yangcheng County’s government office.
Tang Xuanzang, wearing an official hat and a blue long gown, was attentively reading the documents in his hand.
Ring-
A piercing sound rang out.
“Huh-”
Tang Xuanzang put down the documents and looked out the window. The setting sun’s rays spilled into the room through the window cracks.
“Is it already evening?”
Time easily slipped away when he was busy.
Since he wanted to implement the skilled worker poverty alleviation project as soon as possible, Tang Xuanzang had been working from morning to night tirelessly these days.
If he were an ordinary person, high-intensity work like this would have likely destroyed his health long ago.
But as the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada, even as an ordinary mortal, the glimmer of spiritual light in Tang Xuanzang’s god soul was enough to ensure he wouldn’t die from hunger, fatigue, or other reasons.
Although it was time to get off work, Tang Xuanzang had no intention of leaving.
He took a short break, ate some dried fruits, and then returned to his desk. He picked up the unfinished documents, pondering and annotating his suggestions with a pen.
In this way.
He worked late into the night until he heard a sharp voice and realized it was very late.
“Master, it’s time to go home.”
At the door, a young man in sportswear with a sharp-mouth monkey cheek called out to Tang Xuanzang.
“Alright.”
Tang Xuanzang didn’t persist and marked his place in the documents with a bookmark, then stretched his neck and waist as he walked towards the door.
At the entrance of the government office.
A car was parked outside.
The car was named ‘automobile’ because it was driven by the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy inside the ‘spiritual crystal.’ As Qi and Qi are interchangeable, it was thus named ‘automobile.’
