The quaint book had not been opened, and the first thing Zhang Mingtu saw was the cover.
On the simple cover is a dark and strange underworld, which is similar to the description of hell in Journey to the West that Zhang Mingtu once saw.
However, the overall background of the world is that of Daxia, which Zhang Mingtu is familiar with. In this weird filter of ghostly horror, the centerpiece of the picture is a statue of Bodhisattva.
That Bodhisattva is the same as the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in the temple. The only difference is that Ksitigarbha's face is that of Zhang Mingtu.
For Buddhists, such Buddhist statues are disrespectful.
Zhang Mingtu thought it was okay.
"Ksitigarbha!"
This time, the record of his life only contained the word "Ksitigarbha". Zhang Ming looked at the picture and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
With such a name, I think he has really succeeded in the path of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra.
He truly became a figure like a human Buddha.
After calming down, he opened the cover and looked down.
…
I have been practicing in Jiujiang County for half a month, but there is no response from the book of life and death in my mind. The fonts above it have not increased or decreased.
At that moment I knew that I became the "brother of the future".
I can't say that I feel depressed, but at least it's not very uncomfortable.
But it doesn't matter, I will take action.
Since I am the future brother, then I can do it freely and boldly go for it.
Life should be enjoyable, and you should swim three thousand miles into the water.
I have too many worries in reality, family, relatives, friends, prince...
But I don't care that much.
Okay, I still care a little bit, but our two concerns are not in the same direction.
Since the future is doomed and it is difficult to get rid of it without me, then I will try as boldly as possible without worrying too much.
I laid out a plan, an earth-shattering plan.
I understand the characters of the Land of the Rising Sun, and I know many bases of the Land of the Rising Sun on the southeast coast, so I took the initiative to hide my identity and whereabouts, and planted corresponding instruments in one of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun bases.
At the same time, I left behind the semi-finished Dragon and Snake Nine Transformations that have not yet been fully developed.
On a dark and windy night, Xue Cheng worked extremely hard and led a large number of Jinyiwei people to break through that base and obtained the half-finished Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake.
Due to the extremely high defense strength of the base, Xue Cheng still followed his previous operating habits and used more than three times the manpower of the Land of the Rising Sun.
He had basically redeployed all the personnel in the Jiujiang County Jinyi Guard House, and he also called in a large number of people to take action at the six doors.
Then a large number of people jointly took the credit, and more than a hundred people took out the semi-finished Dragon and Snake Nine Transformations from the underground base.
The news was reported immediately, and the people in Dongchang cordoned off the scene as quickly as possible.
I have overestimated the court's ruthlessness as much as possible. I overestimated the court's ruthlessness, but I still underestimated it a little.
They arrested all the people involved in the incident and put them in jail, and everyone was sealed off and not allowed to go out.
Judging from the messages I intercepted and transmitted using the teleportation array, the imperial court wanted to block this information at all costs, and even initiated a ban to kill all those involved in this incident.
The Nine Changes of Dragon and Snake are much more important than I thought, and the imperial court is much more spicy than I thought.
Even if this incident involves hundreds or even thousands of people, the imperial court must suppress this incident at all costs and kill all those who know about it. They would rather kill ten thousand by mistake than let one person go.
Along with the teleportation array came a grandmaster-level figure.
However, although the other party responded extremely quickly, Kyoto was quite far away from here, which still gave me a certain amount of time to react. After all, this was not the first time I had submitted intelligence to the superiors.
Having experienced several tragic deaths in the past, although I still cannot imagine the bottom line of the imperial court, I have still made a lot of preparations.
I hid my identity and once again took action in a base in the Land of the Rising Sun near Jiujiang County, killing all the people in the base. At the same time, I once again copied the relevant research materials in the base, as well as
Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake.
This time, I did not take away the Nine Changes of Dragon and Snake, but "happened" to inadvertently expose it to the disciples of the Qing Gang.
Two days later, the news spread throughout the world as if it had wings.
Also spread throughout the world were the secrets related to the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake. It is thought that the Qinggang also knew about the related events, and the people involved used the fastest reaction speed to copy the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake, and then spread it.
…
Zhang Mingtu felt a chill in his heart when he saw this.
The overall description was quite brief, but he could see how many vortexes it contained.
The Jin Yiwei, the Six Gates, and the people from the nearby imperial courts were all imprisoned in one area. Although the word "imprisonment" was not used, they were nominally gathered together to await the next processing.
But he was indeed prepared to take action and kill everyone to prevent the news from leaking.
Even though Zhang Mingtu had experienced many such cruel methods and tricks, he still felt a little scary.
"But my future brother is really adaptable."
Zhang Mingtu also admired this in his heart. After suffering a lot of losses, not only him, but also his brothers have grown a lot. They always think twice before doing anything and have quite a few backup plans.
Now that things have developed to this point, I think the storm is over.
After calming down, Zhang Mingtu continued to look down.
…
I made a lot of preparations, but deliberately revealed flaws. The information in the two bases was not completely complete.
However, a lot of other relevant information was given, especially the Country of the Rising Sun's plans for Daxia.
I found that my original thinking was not broad enough. I only knew how to add negative buffs to the Kingdom of the Rising Sun. I only knew that the Kingdom of the Rising Sun had plans for Daxia, but in fact, the people above did not care, and Daxia did not care.
Now that I have taken the initiative to add a positive buff to the Land of the Rising Sun, Daxia, a huge machine, and even people from countless aristocratic families have suddenly started to take it seriously.
Semi-finished research on the body of the true dragon, the method of achieving the body of the five elements...
This is the most core part that Daxia really attaches importance to.
In the past, when Daxia took action, countless aristocratic families would always hold back. Now, as the information about the semi-finished product has been leaked, the entire ancient empire has taken action, and they have made concerted efforts like never before.
Countless people are searching in secret, and everyone in the Land of the Rising Sun is being watched.
The method of raising monsters can slowly make them stronger, but this method can not only be obtained through cooperation, but can also be obtained through forceful means.
More importantly, the method of forging the body of a true dragon and the method of cultivating the body of the Five Elements are top priorities.
That's what everyone cares about.
The world is in turmoil.
This round was more successful than any of my previous spies targeting the Land of the Rising Sun.
One after another, small and wealthy families take the initiative to expose people from the Land of the Rising Sun. Anyone involved with the Country of the Rising Sun will be reported.
The results were unimaginable and exceeded anything I had ever achieved before.
At the same time, the spies of the Country of the Rising Sun are more tough-talking and well-organized than the imagination of all the aristocratic and wealthy families in Great Xia.
They even used soul-searching methods, but they still couldn't find the extremely special researcher hiding in the darkness, nor the Yutani mentioned in the research report.
Well, of course I can't find it.
I made up Yutani, so how can the characters in the Land of the Rising Sun understand it if it doesn’t exist?
However, the behavior of the characters in the Land of the Rising Sun was obviously misunderstood by the people from Dongchang, Jinyiwei and Liumen.
After spending so much time, energy and even searching for souls, they still refused to speak. You can imagine how well-organized the other party is.
At the same time, judging from the information presented by the other party, it is obvious that the figures from the Land of the Rising Sun are in high positions. Some of the research on the body of the true dragon comes from the secret records in the "Martial Arts", and many come from major research institutions.
Inherited in the family.
It's chaos, it's chaos, the whole southeast is in chaos.
There are problems everywhere, everything goes wrong.
Alas, it has nothing to do with me, nothing to do with me.
Sure enough, when a big country suspects that you have weapons of mass destruction, you'd better have them; if you don't, you'll be out of luck.
People from the Land of the Rising Sun are arrested every day, people from the Land of the Rising Sun are tortured every day, and demons die every day. Do you know? You don’t know that you only care about yourself.
…
puff!
Zhang Mingtu couldn't help laughing when he saw this.
It can only be said that he was tricked by people from the Land of the Rising Sun many times in a row. He was clearly aware of the dangers of the Land of the Rising Sun, and he reported the results many times but did not pay attention to them.
Instead, Zhang Mingtu felt quite aggrieved that the higher authorities should pay more attention to the Country of the Rising Sun and allow them to be reused.
Now that he sees characters from the Land of the Rising Sun being treated like this, this future brother is quite gloating about his misfortune.
Through the words and pictures, Zhang Ming could feel the future brother's happiness, but he just wanted to say.
Well done!
Overall it is so comfortable and enjoyable!
Even Zhang Mingtu felt that the words used to describe it were too mild and the quality needed to be lowered!
"Sure enough, it is too weak to rely on one's own strength to deal with a problem alone. All forces that can be united should be united."
"Know clearly who is a friend and who is an enemy. The wealthy families are indeed one of my future opponents. They are hindering my actions in many areas and places, but they are a force that can be united to deal with the Land of the Rising Sun.
."
Zhang Mingtu had a deeper understanding.
…
The Country of the Rising Sun suffered a complete defeat, but their organizational structure and related rigorous information are indeed surprising and even shocking.
In terms of organizational structure and level setting, they are even stricter than Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and their intelligence work is quite perfect.
Those who can cause the southeastern coast to rot in the future, or even cause turmoil while taking advantage of the military turmoil at the northern border, can never be underestimated.
I spent quite a bit of energy on them, but it wasn't a big problem.
In terms of spiritual practice, I have made steady progress, after giving up many martial arts.
I naturally broke through to the master realm.
Then start speedrunning.
I walked into Donglin Temple in the midst of everyone's attention, claiming to have the ultimate understanding of past life memories and to break the mystery of the Fetus Sect. Many eminent Buddhist monks in Donglin Temple debated scriptures with me, and no one was my match.
The Fudo Myoyo Sutra and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra shocked a group of people inexplicably.
Alas, life is always so lonely as snow.
The changes in Donglin Temple were very small and not very exciting. Everyone from top to bottom named me a disciple of Buddha and called me the reincarnation of Buddha.
Because I am really familiar with all kinds of spiritual practices.
He is born with the Immovable King Sutra and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra.
An eighteen-year-old master-level figure is rare in the world.
Perhaps only the overlord of Western Chu back then had such a posture as me.
Donglin Temple accepted me very quickly, and Zen Master Kurong couldn't wait to come out and discuss Taoism with me.
Compared to before, I am more calm now. After all, I have also become a martial saint.
I was even able to give Zen Master Kurong a lot of advice on the Kurong Sutra.
Everyone in Donglin Temple couldn't understand it, but they were greatly shocked.
I thought I could pass the time more peacefully. After all, I know more and more and can speedrun faster and faster.
The butterfly effect is far beyond my imagination.
Travelers walking outside Donglin Temple told me that troops were being recruited along the southeast coast and they were going to sea.
The empire has always had sea bans, especially along the southeastern coast, where the calls for sea bans are the loudest and loudest.
But now, people along the southeastern coast are the first to recruit troops to go to sea in a large scale.
Their names are also very straightforward, anyone who offends our Daxia will be punished no matter how far away they are.
This was obviously learned from the second generation emperors of Daxia, but they were not very good at it.
After all, the southeastern coastal area has been invaded by Japanese pirates for hundreds of years. They have always been offended, but no one has ever said that those who offend our Daxia will be punished no matter how far away they are.
It can only be said that the Japanese pirates even joined forces with many figures from aristocratic families to jointly create such a situation.
The Japanese pirates were raging along the southeastern coast and plundered many gold and silver treasures, making it impossible for ordinary people to plant and operate, and even lacked food. Forced by helplessness, these civilians had to sell their land and properties at low prices.
At the same time, the large amounts of gold and silver plundered by the Japanese pirates had to be traded and sold by the aristocratic families, exchanged for porcelain, tea and other items, and sent overseas to trade with people in overseas countries to obtain huge sums of money.
Those who gained the most from the maritime trade were the many families on the southeast coast, and the ones who shouted for the sea ban the most were the people along the southeast coast.
It totally goes against common sense, right?
At first I thought it was against common sense, but later I realized that opening up the sea can indeed bring massive benefits, and Daxia is the leading one in those benefits.
If the sea is banned, the main benefits will be gained by the people along the southeast coast. Of course, they are more willing to ban the sea.
What he talks about is doctrine, but his heart is all about business.
No one who can hold a high position is a fool, everyone is far-sighted.
I used to think that the other person was stupid, because I was standing in a different position from them.
Now, from a higher position and looking at farther areas, we can of course understand many things that we couldn't figure out back then.
