The plaque written by Taoist Wu himself is quite unrestrained and wild.
The Taoist soldiers paved a bluestone square in the open space in front of the Taoist temple, and placed a temporary stone tripod in the center, which looked a little bit cool.
Master Wu, who was dressed in black, waved his sleeves and immediately transformed from the attire of a wealthy businessman into a promising Taoist priest, but this Taoist priest was a little bit burlier...
"All that's left is to wait for the fish to bite."
As a god, Wu Chong naturally couldn't play in person, he had to choose a local.
Let the locals spread the word about his reputation.
Xiguo, a country with a heritage of six hundred years.
Because of its remote location, Xi Country has little contact with the outside world. Its only enemies are the nomads in the north. For people born in Xi Country, their world is so big, and there may be people outside who come and go.
Experts, but that is just what they talk about after dinner, and has little to do with their lives. What they care most about is their own food, rice, oil and salt.
Such a closed country has entered the middle and late stages of its 600th anniversary.
Internal land annexation and natural disasters led to repeated uprisings. External nomads often went south to clear grass valleys. The inaction of the court caused the border to fester and a large number of border troops to flee.
Black Dang Mountain.
A group of remnant soldiers entered the mountainous area. There were about twenty or thirty people in this group. Those on horseback in front and those on foot behind. The armor of the leader seemed to have been burned by fire. It was pitch black and his helmet was missing.
The soldiers at the back were even worse. They dragged most of the burned flags, discarded their helmets and armor, and looked like frightened birds. They were walking in the mountains and forests. Even if a flying bird passed by, they would be scared to hold on to their weapons.
"Brother, Cao Dao's pursuers haven't appeared for a long time. I think they have probably given up."
A black man holding an ax stepped forward and handed the fruit he had just picked from the forest to the leader.
Among this group of remnants, he was in the best condition. Apart from being a little embarrassed, he did not suffer any injuries.
"Thank you so much, Brother Fang."
The team paused for a while, and the leader tidied up his burnt beard, took the fruit and ate it.
The fruit was dry and hard to chew, and he couldn't eat more than two bites. The man couldn't help but feel sad.
"I, Lu Chuan, have been law-abiding, loyal to the emperor, and worthy of the country all my life, but I have ended up like this. My wife, children, and mother are all burdened by me and cannot survive."
"It's ridiculous that the princes in the court only care about their own interests and let thieves and bandits plunder without any regard. Now that all their wealth has been lost, they don't know where to go. It's really sad..."
This Lu Chuan was originally a famous scholar in Zhao. He was an official and was considered an upper-class person in Zhao. He was smart since he was a child. He was elected as an official at the age of seventeen and was recommended as an official with the help of his family. In the first half of his life, he was ordinary.
What he likes most is to make friends with heroes. Occasionally, like other colleagues, he scolds Fang Qiu and gives advice to the court.
I never thought that one day bandits would come into the city and kill everyone with their heads rolling around.
Everyone in his family died here, and he personally managed to escape from the siege only with the support of his subordinates and friends. Looking back on the past now, it is inevitable that he will feel a little depressed.
"Brother, why should you belittle yourself? Hidden dragons are still in the abyss, let alone humans?"
When the black man saw this, he immediately enlightened him.
This dark man's name is Fang Kui, a reckless man who was born to kill pigs. He has admired those celebrities since he was a child, and has frequent contacts with Lu Chuan on weekdays. This time Lu Chuan was in trouble, he was the one who rescued him by fighting desperately, otherwise Lu Chuan would be like this If he had some skill, he would have died in the rebellion a long time ago. How could he be like now, sitting here and despising his bad luck?
"Brother Fang!"
Lu Chuan put down the wild fruit in his hand, stood up and saluted the black man carefully. The black man opposite was frightened and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but he was deeply moved. This elder brother did not despise his humble background and was willing to call him brother. .
"Brother, what are you doing? You've broken my little brother."
"There is no way to repay the kindness of saving my life. If I have a successful career in the future, I will definitely share the world with my virtuous brother!"
The two had a heart-to-heart talk, and in the end they even called themselves brothers.
After recovering, Lu Chuan became the "Timely Rain" from Zhao Di, a well-known good man on the road.
Lu Chuan is not a kind-hearted gentleman. If he were, he would not abandon his wife and children to live alone. The reason why he said all that nonsense before was just to win people's hearts. The world is about to be in chaos. The status of force will definitely rise straight up, and the sword will be king in troubled times. Lu Chuan is just using this information gap to gain the loyalty of the man named the buyer. As long as he has this man's help, he will have no chance in troubled times in the future. .
Lu Chuan, who had regained his true self, also encouraged other soldiers who followed here.
Morale finally recovered a little.
After eating some wild fruits to satisfy their hunger, the group continued to move forward. According to the map of the local hunter, they could reach Linjiang City through this mountain. Once there, Lu Chuan could make a comeback.
On the mountain, Wu Chong saw the group of people clearly.
He has been waiting here for three months and has passed more than 20 groups of people before and after, but there is no one he likes. This Lu Chuan is considered to be the top one among them. He is ambitious and calculating. The most important thing is that he is good enough. He is a sinister man who wants to save his life even if he doesn't want his wife, children, and mother. This alone is the first element for him to achieve great things.
"The fish has taken the bait. Let's go up the mountain and accept the guidance of the old god."
While speaking, Wu Chong flicked his finger. Dozens of breaths flew out from his fingertips and fell into the mountains and forests below, changing the environment and landscape in an instant.
I have met Wu Chong several times.
Although he hasn't figured it out yet, he is no longer as blind as he was at the beginning. Especially after traveling back and forth to the spirit world, Wu Chong has a new understanding of the formation method, and now he can simply arrange some things. The only difference is It's just that the panel hasn't approved it yet, unlike his alchemy...
Thinking of alchemy, the corner of Wu Chong's mouth twitched.
It's better not to think about it. His ability to cook hot pot is too far away from the scene where he expected the Bagua furnace to be hung high and the three flavors to be cooked over real fire. It's not the same style of painting at all.
Wu Chong's behavior will naturally not be noticed by the group of ordinary people below. In the eyes of higher beings, all warriors who have not mastered the 'spirit' are ordinary people. If higher beings want to obliterate low-level warriors, they will not even use their hands.
To move, you only need to go to the 'spirit world' and take away the opponent's 'spirit'. A warrior who has lost his 'spirit' will be useless no matter how strong he is. He will only become a vegetative state and fall into a deep sleep forever.
This is also the reason why the status of advanced beings is so high in the Great World of First Demon.
To a certain extent, they are no longer human.
"It's strange. Logically speaking, we should have left the Heidang Mountain boundary by now."
The scout leading the way was a local hunter that Lu Chuan had specially found. He was very familiar with the nearby roads. But the strange thing was that this road he had taken countless times went astray this time.
