Cyber Daming

Inushan City Jinyiwei Hundred Households Residence, two floors underground.

In the dim light, a naked Xie Bian was suspended in mid-air, with his silver hair dancing like water plants. A nerve bundle as thick as three fingers sprang up from the ground and inserted directly into the spiritual orifice on the back of his neck.

"The body is empty, and the yellow beams are fishing for the soul. My name is Zou Sijiu, and in the name of Dream Eater Boqi, I borrow the authority to open the back door, dig out the nets of Jiuyou, and lure the lost souls back!"

Zou Sijiu, dressed in a bright yellow robe, sat cross-legged under Xie Bian, with his two fingers together like a sword, and his halberd pointing to the sky!

Buzz.

A dull mechanical hum, accompanied by a slight tremor, came from beneath the ground where Zou Sijiu was sitting cross-legged.

The source was the Huangliang host that was never returned after being borrowed from Qianhu Institute and was buried directly under the Baihu Institute in Inushan City by Li Jun.

"Come on!!!"

Zou Sijiu shouted loudly, and the robe embroidered with Yin and Yang Bagua automatically moved without any wind. There was a loud crashing sound, and the shiny hair sticking to the scalp exploded. The black pupils spread outward, and their depths were like waterfalls. The light flows back and forth.

The weird and horrifying scene lasted for a full stick of incense. It wasn't until the mechanical buzz echoing in the room weakened to the point of being inaudible that Zou Sijiu's empty eyes regained consciousness.

"Damn it, it's weird, the sense of ritual is already full, why is it that Xie Bi'an's dreams are always blood red, without any specific creation at all?"

Zou Sijiu scratched his head and muttered to himself.

"That's because what you stole was Luo Cheng's fantasy left in Xie Bian's mind. His dreams are still hidden deeper, and of course you can't see them."

Zou Sijiu looked back and saw that Chen Qisheng, who had a ponytail on the back of his head, was already standing at the door.

"you mean"

Zou Sijiu frowned and thought for a moment, then raised his hand to draw a circle in front of him.

"When Luo Cheng died, his shattered Huangliang Cave Heaven wrapped up Xie Bi'an's dream?"

"That should be the case, because the last step in the refining of the Yellow Turban Warriors is to connect the Huangliang Cave Heaven with the Dao sequence and complete the consciousness recognition of the master."

Chen Qisheng held his shoulders with both hands and said with a solemn expression: "If even a rat like you can't get into his dream, then this is the only possibility left."

"But at that time, Concubine Yuan Ming's Buddhist kingdom had clearly cut off the connection between him and Luocheng. How could this situation still happen?" Zou Sijiu looked puzzled.

"The cutting off only prevents Luo Cheng from remotely controlling Xie Bi'an's body. It cannot eliminate the Tao Xu decree that has invaded his consciousness."

The person who spoke was not Chen Qisheng, but Concubine Yuan Ming who appeared shortly after.

"I have to say that Ge Zaoshan's method has improved a lot in recent years."

Concubine Yuan Ming stepped in and exclaimed: "First, we developed the portable miniature talisman seal, and then we developed the Four Beast Dao Armor, which can greatly improve the melee combat ability. In addition, now we can forcibly refine other sequences to refine the Yellow Turban Warriors. I'm afraid Among the 'Four Mountains and One Palace' in Daoxu, Gezao Mountain's comprehensive strength should now be ranked first, right?"

Speaking of this moment, Concubine Yuan Ming narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at Chen Qisheng.

"In terms of innovative methods, Longhu Mountain is indeed inferior to Gezao Mountain."

Chen Qisheng admitted the gap frankly, but then changed the topic and said disdainfully: "But if we rank them first, it would be too high a view on them. These methods have their own uniqueness, but they are all It’s just the icing on the cake, it’s still too early to really bring about earth-shaking qualitative changes!”

"The only one in my body that is hard is my mouth!"

Concubine Yuan Ming snorted coldly, "Luo Cheng is just an Earth Immortal who is not even at the top of the Fifth Dao. He can fight Li Jun back and forth with the help of the Four Beast Dao Armor. Isn't this a qualitative change?"

"You also said that Luocheng was at the peak of Dao Wu, and Lao Li had just been promoted to Wu Wu. In this case, he was still killed. Can this be called a qualitative change? Moreover, the old-school monks in Wudang Mountain did not rely on these things. Can compete head-on with the sect Wu Xu."

Chen Qisheng retorted: "The real future of Tao Xu lies in the cultivation of both spirit and body. These methods in Ge Zao Mountain are just a patchwork for the new Tao Xu."

"Wudang's orthodoxy has been destroyed, and their sword cultivation method has long been cut off."

"As long as the path is correct, it will only be a matter of time before the method is redeveloped."

"But how much manpower and material resources are needed to develop this, and how many generations of continuous iteration and adaptation of genes are needed to be able to rival the Wudang Mountains of the past?"

Concubine Yuan Ming asked one after another: "You only have the 'Doubu' on Longhu Mountain now. How many Taoists can follow this route, and how much resource support can you get from Longhu Mountain?"

"There are followers of the old school Sword Immortal all over the Taoist sect. As long as one person successfully walks out of this path, there will be a cloud of followers in an instant!" Chen Qisheng's words were resounding.

"But now the general trend is in the hands of the new monks. Will they give you this opportunity?"

"How can your Buddhist order be any better?"

Chen Qisheng sneered and said: "We still have other routes to take, but you guys are all crowded on the narrow path of the 'Buddhist Kingdom on Earth'. I won't talk about the risk of reduced genetic diversity. Just This is the problem of causal calculation power, which is a problem that you cannot solve. There are too many monks and too little food. Today, when Wu Xu, the high-quality donor of calculation power in the sect, has disappeared, it is only a matter of time that your Buddhist order will start fighting among you sooner or later."

Concubine Yuan Ming's slender eyebrows suddenly stood up, and she put her hands on her hips: "Who said that improving the calculation of cause and effect can only be achieved by using the brains of the sect Wu Xu? You can do the same by optimizing the host of the Buddha Kingdom!"

"Then you still continue to play the old trick of hypnotism, and after failure, you get angry and take out the protector to forcibly liberate others?"

Chen Qisheng said disdainfully: "What age has it been, and your Buddhist order still hasn't made any progress at all."

"you"

"Okay, okay, now it's not a Dharma debate conference between you, Buddhism and Taoism. Why are you still discussing Dharma techniques?"

Zou Sijiu straightened his legs while sitting cross-legged, slumped on the ground, and said feebly: "You two, the key now is how to wake up Xie Bian. This is the key point!"

Concubine Yuan Ming snorted, stopped arguing with Chen Qisheng, turned to look at Zou Sijiu, and said in a deep voice: "I thought about it, maybe I can try the Dharma Protector's method."

"You mean fighting fire with fire?"

Zou Sijiu jumped three feet high, "Aren't you afraid of making Xie Bian completely stupid? Then Lao Li won't be able to chase after us with a knife."

"It's better than just watching him sleep, right?"

Concubine Yuan Ming looked sternly and glanced at the two of them: "Do you have any other ideas?"

"."

For some reason, Zou Sijiu always felt that after Yuan Mingfei joined the Jinyi Guards of Inuyama City, the charm that penetrated her bones was gradually fading, and was replaced by an increasingly fierce and capable temperament.

"No, the risk is too high."

Zou Sijiu pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head and rejected Yuan Mingfei's proposal.

"Whether it is the Yellow Turban Warrior or the Dharma Protector, they are both highly aggressive techniques. Xie Bian's current physical condition cannot bear any more damage."

"I agree with what the God Stick said."

Chen Qisheng took over the conversation: "To untie the bell, you must tie the bell. If you want to make Xie Bian wake up, you still have to start with the people of Ge Zao Mountain. Only by mastering their method of refining the Yellow Turban Warriors can we completely eliminate the remaining traces of him." A fragment of the cave in consciousness.”

Concubine Yuan Ming frowned and said: "But now the only person in the Gezao Mountain Daoxu in the Japanese area is the Earth Immortal who has not yet appeared! This kind of person is not something we can afford to offend."

As soon as these words came out, the three of them fell into speechless silence.

The word "Earth Immortal" was like an invisible mountain, weighing heavily on their hearts.

"What the hell are you doing with so many people? How can you avoid it if you can't afford to offend him? Anyway, the opponent will come to you sooner or later, so the troops will come to block the water and cover it up with the earth. If you dare to fight or not, you must have enough of your mother's temperament!"

Zou Sijiu slapped his thigh hard, looked up at the other two people, with a forced smile on his face, and asked: "What are you going to do next? I mean after settling the matter in Ge Zaoshan, now The Japanese area is not just one trouble."

"I'm tired of running away these years. This place is pretty good. I'm not going to move any further."

Concubine Yuan Ming leaned against the wall, stretched, and spoke in a lazy tone.

"What about you?" Zou Sijiu raised his chin towards Chen Qisheng.

"I'm not going to leave either."

Chen Qisheng shook his head, and the ponytail behind his head swayed.

"Still unwilling to give up?"

"Of course I don't want to. Are you willing to just run away with your tail between your legs?"

"How can you live forever if you don't give up?"

"If you let go, will immortality be at your fingertips?"

Chen Qisheng smiled: "We all have people we want to kill, and we all have lives we want to earn! There are no big trees above us to enjoy the shade, so we have to walk hard under the scorching sun?"

He paused and asked, "Or are you ready to give up?"

"I?"

Zou Sijiu laughed, "Niubi, don't forget, the Yin and Yang order is called Huang Liang Shuo Mo by others."

"What's the meaning?"

"greedy!"

Zou Sijiu had a ferocious look on his face: "If I don't raise my Zou Zi ranking to the top 100 this time, I won't leave even if you kill me!"

Edo Castle.

"This Cantonese food is the taste of my hometown. It's rare to find such an authentic restaurant in the Japanese area. Come and try it."

Ghost Wangda greeted Li Jun, then picked up a chopstick and put a handful of vegetables into the bustard ghost's bowl.

"Hurry up and eat. I've worked hard for you all these years."

"You can't say that. I lived a cool life in Osaka Castle."

The bustard ghost chuckled and said, "It's a pity that you never have time to come over. Otherwise, I would definitely let the little sisters under me take good care of you."

"There will be a chance."

In the private room, the three of them immersed themselves in eating until they had cleared all the food in front of them. Then Li Jun pretended to be casual and asked: "Old ghost, how are you doing in Qianhusuo now?"

Ghost King Da smiled and said: "It's not bad, it's much easier than being a hundred households in Inuyama City."

"No one is causing trouble for you, right?"

"You kid, don't underestimate me. I am now a Qianhu after all. Although there is a "subtitle" hanging on the front, not everyone dares to offend me."

Ghost King Da smiled and scolded: "Instead of worrying about me, it's better to think about how to solve the trouble in front of you."

"What trouble can I get into?"

"Why are you pretending to be in front of me? I've heard a long time ago that many of the Dosu who sneaked into the Japanese area this time fell into your hands. First, you killed two Dosu from Yongle Palace in Osaka Castle. One, the rest of Fuhe was also plucked out, even his pants were hid, and only then did he save his life. It was even worse in Ge Zaoshan, you killed all the elites of the younger generation. "

Ghost King Da said in a teasing tone: "I'm afraid the prison in your Inushan City Hundred Households Office can no longer be locked up, right?"

Li Jun spread his hands: "You can't blame me. Others have come to the door. I can't just be beaten without fighting back, right?"

"No one blames you. On the contrary, Su Qianhu is full of praise for your performance. He has said it in front of me and Lao Qian countless times. I don't know how happy the old man is. You two One is a solo martial artist, and the other is a sect martial artist, but they are not from the same path."

Ghost King Da suddenly stopped talking and looked up and down at Li Jun with a half-smile.

"I'm afraid your visit to Edo Castle this time is more than just attending a conference, right?"

"You are the only one who knows me well."

Li Jun picked up the teapot on the table and diligently filled the teacup in front of Ghost King Da, "I want to ask you for some news."

"I know you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Are you asking what tomorrow's meeting will be about?"

Ghost Wangda did not show off and said directly: "You should already know some of the recent actions of the New Donglin Party, right?"

"I know this, but what does this have to do with our Jin Yiwei?" Li Jun asked in confusion.

"Today is different from the past. If it were in the past, their internal division of interests would have nothing to do with us. But it is different now. Lao Su wants everyone to choose their next home. After Jin Yiwei in the Japanese District was abolished, he can also There’s a decent escape route.”

Clang.

A half-bitten chicken leg smashed into the dinner plate.

The bustard ghost sitting nearby opened his mouth wide and looked at Ghost King Da in stunned silence.

"Looking for a new home?"

Li Jun also looked surprised: "Is the New Donglin Party going to take action against us?"

"The fact that Jinyiwei can survive in the 'Da Chao Debate' is a test of the bottom line of the New Donglin Party by the royal family. It will only be a matter of time before they are abolished."

Ghost Wangda said in a calm tone: "You have been joining Jinyiwei for a long time, and you should be able to see that the organizational structure of Jinyiwei in the Japanese area is actually abnormal."

"Take the Japanese area as an example. It is an area with tens of millions of criminals and an area as large as a province in the empire. However, it only has a thousand royal guards, and the maximum number of hundred households in a city is no more than Xu Wu. To put it bluntly, It's ugly, if Su Qianhu hadn't been here, we would have been killed by Honghu in less than a month just relying on us."

"The support from the imperial court in terms of personnel, funding, equipment, etc. can only be described as 'weak'. And it's not just our Japanese area, it's the same for other criminal areas in the empire."

"On the one hand, the New Donglin Party needs Jin Yiwei to help them look after their territory, but on the other hand, they are worried that Jin Yiwei will take advantage of the situation to become bigger. But after the New Deal is stabilized, they no longer have these worries."

Ghost King Da said one word at a time: "This time the rich and powerful people from Ruxu sent people to harvest the fruits of the New Deal, this is just the first step for the New Donglin Party. Next, these powerful people who have benefited should turn their knives on We’re gone!”
