Ruins of the past

Inside the Tianshijiao Taoist Temple in Bafu.

Zhang Fengyun punched the table and said angrily: "These people from the Jie Sect are simply crazy!"

The Taoist boy in front of her lowered his head and said, "Uncle Zhang, the Jie Cult is now stirring up trouble in Shuzhou and encouraging his followers to besiege Taoist temples."

"In the Taoist temple in Qitong Mansion, there were even crazy demons among the five types of demons who attacked the abbot."

"Now everyone in the Taoist temple in Shuzhou is in danger, and the master can't spare any effort to support you for the time being."

Zhang Fengyun nodded slightly after hearing this.

She understood that although the Tianshi Sect was the state religion of the Han Dynasty and spread all over the world, if the focus was placed on some local areas, then the Tianshi Sect might not be the strongest in the local areas.

For example, in Shuzhou, there is the Jie Sect who is king and hegemony, there is the Snow Mountain Monster Kingdom eyeing it, and there is the chieftain who rules.

In addition, there are too many places where the powerful Taoists from the Tianshi Sect need to be suppressed, and not one of them has come to the remote Shuzhou.

Nowadays, the Jie Sect is taking action against the various Taoist temples of the Tianshi Sect in Shuzhou. The abbots of these Taoist temples are naturally unwilling to put their Taoist temples in danger in order to support Zhang Fengyun.

On the contrary, the Jie Sect does not have a stronghold like the Taoist Temple. The followers gather and disperse at will, and any hilltop can be their gathering place.

There is only one main altar, on the Nine Sacred Mountains, where there is a powerful Taoist named Li Yaofeng.

Zhang Fengyun asked again: "What did Uncle Fu Haotian say?"

The Taoist boy said with a bitter face: "Uncle Master, he is used to wandering around in clouds and wild cranes. He just went to Chicheng Mountain to enjoy the snow alone some time ago, and he hasn't come back yet."

The Fu Haotian mentioned in Zhang Fengyun's mouth is the great virtue of Shuzhou Daogang Division.

The Daogang Division manages all affairs of the Tianshi Sect in a state, and the person in charge is called a great virtue.

When she heard that her uncle was missing, Zhang Fengyun's eyes were thoughtful.

"Although Master Fu may seem unkempt and neglectful of church affairs, he is actually very knowledgeable about the situation in Shuzhou."

"It is very possible that he is deliberately elusive to confuse the Jie Sect."

"Maybe he has come to Ba's house secretly."

Zhang Fengyun looked at the Taoist boy in front of him and said: "You will visit the local Demon Suppression Division later. It is best to call the Chu Baihu to have a discussion."

The Taoist boy asked strangely: "I heard that the new Chu Baihu only went to Chaoyao Mountain this year and is not very powerful. Is it useful to contact him?"

Zhang Fengyun said: "The person I want to contact is not him, but the Demon Suppression Division behind him. The Tribulation Sect is very powerful in Shuzhou, and I am afraid that the Demon Suppression Division has long wanted to attack them."

"This time, it's a good opportunity for them."

…

On the Tumenbao campus during the day, Chu Qiguang was teaching Chen Gang and Lei Yushu in the third realm about martial arts fighting experiences.

After all, the strength of both of them is improving rapidly, and the Ba family may be in chaos next.

It was impossible for Chu Qiguang to protect the two of them all the time, so he planned to pass on his fighting experience since practicing martial arts to the two of them.

"Martial arts fighting, sneak attacks are the king, and pretense is the respect."

Lei Yushu raised his hand and asked, "What does pretending mean?"

Chu Qiguang touched his chin and felt that it was really difficult to summarize. He could only explain: "It is to establish authority, show off, and show off one's authority. By pretending, you can pressure and persuade others to do what you want them to do."

With that said, Chu Qiguang stepped in front of Lei Yushu and Chen Gang.

The terrifying force hit the ground.

In an instant, layers of masonry on the ground shattered, earth and rocks flew everywhere, and smoke and dust scattered.

The two of them felt the earth tremble violently, and a small pit appeared under Chu Qiguang's feet.

Chu Qiguang said: "Look, do you think what I said makes sense now? This is just pretentious."

Lei Yushu and Chen Gang nodded repeatedly.

"Then let's continue." Chu Qiguang continued: "Based on my many years of experience in martial arts, the ultimate goals of martial arts can be divided into two types."

"The first is to kill the opponent."

"The second is to force the other party."

"And the most effective way to kill people in martial arts is through sneak attacks."

"The most effective way to force someone in martial arts is to show off."

"So sneak attacks and pretense are the ultimate means of martial arts."

"When you use martial arts to fight in the future, you must keep these two points in mind."

Lei Yushu nodded thoughtfully. Chen Gang on the side was sweating on his forehead. He felt something was wrong no matter what he thought.

Chu Qiguang continued: "Today I will teach you how to sneak attack."

"This is the best way to defeat the strong with the weak and defeat your opponent without hurting yourself."

"You must remember that if you can attack from behind, don't attack from the front."

"You can deceive and plot, but don't be aboveboard."

"If you have a weapon, don't use your bare hands. If you can kill someone, don't seriously injure him."

"As long as you are not fighting with bare hands, you must learn to use tools."

Lei Yushu raised his hand again and asked studiously: "What is the tool?"

Chu Qiguang laughed and threw a bag of lime powder to Chen Gang and Lei Yushu: "For example, this lime powder is very useful to deal with warriors in the three realms."

"But lime powder can only deal with some weak people. For strong people, dust explosion is better."

Lei Yushu and Chen Gang both said they didn't understand, so they listened to Chu Qiguang introduce the principles of dust explosion.

"However, the environmental requirements for dust explosions are too high. If you have the opportunity, it is best to find out the opponent's intelligence in advance and directly give him the elixir."

"In this way, you don't have to fight with the opponent, and you don't have to reveal your strength or identity. You can kill the opponent and blame the immortal way."

Chen Gang couldn't help but said: "Brother Dog, you haven't used 'tools' in battle for a long time, right?"

Chu Qiguang thought: 'Of course it's because I have the best tool, the Ring of Foolishness, and you don't even know I'm using it. ’

However, he still said: "Because I don't have a strong enough opponent, but this time the Tianshi Sect and the Jie Sect came to Ba's house, I wonder if they can let me use their tools."

Chen Gang thought to himself: ‘Huh? Is this just pretentious? ’

Lei Yushu heard it as if he was enlightened: "So this is martial arts? What Master said is simple and easy to understand, and it makes more sense than others. Martial arts is all about sneak attacks and showing off!"

After Chu Qiguang taught the essence of his martial arts to Chen Gang and Lei Yushu, Zhang Jitian came over with more than ten Buddhist scriptures.

Since Chen Gang started to cultivate in the past few days, the task of helping Chu Qiguang collect Buddhist scriptures has been handed over to Zhang Jitian.

After Chu Qiguang accepted the Buddhist scriptures, he looked at Zhang Jitian who had not left, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Zhang Jitian said: "People from Qianhu in Shuzhou are here and are waiting for you in the hall."

So Chu Qiguang took Zhang Jitian to the hall of Tumen Fort. From a distance, he saw four people standing or sitting, looking at him with scrutinizing eyes.

One of the young people said: "You are Chu Qiguang, right? From now on, the Hundred Households of Tumen Fort will be temporarily under our command. You must fully cooperate with us."
