Chapter 154 Insight into the old path of Kong Ming Chuan
Zhang Sui smiled and returned the greeting, saying, "Did the Taoist Master bring his disciples here to practice?"
Taoist Yingde nodded and said: "My Donghua sect has always focused on experience and accumulated practice experience in actual combat.
I also heard from a friend that aliens invaded the southwest and massacred people. Our Donghua faction has always been fighting against aliens. Now that I know the news, I will definitely come and take a look."
Zhang Sui thought to himself: "Is this kind of practice just like the legendary practice of not fighting, but on the way to fight?"
Zhang Sui was very fond of the Donghua sect with a tough style, and after hearing this, he chatted with Taoist Yingde for a while.
Only then did I learn that since Youli and his party, Taoist Yingde has been traveling with several outstanding disciples, killing the mountain spirit tree monsters that harmed the human race, and has been chasing the Cangqi that appeared in the waters of the Weihe River some time ago.
.
Zhang Sui heard about Cang Qi's name and asked, "Are there still many of those water monsters now?"
Taoist Yingde shook his head and said: "There are no traces of the big groups, only some scattered ones.
I heard a fellow Taoist say that not long ago, there were a large number of Cangqi migrating upstream along the Wei River, but they did not harass the human race on both sides of the river along the way. There seemed to be Buddhist disciples protecting them, and I don’t know where they went in the end.
land."
Zhang Sui thought of the Cangqi monk Puhui. At that time, he seemed to be leading a group of Cangqi who were converted by him along the river. He didn't know if Cangqi's migration this time was related to him.
However, since there is Buddhism secretly protecting him, Zhang Sui's understanding of Buddhism must be inseparable.
Someone soon arranged a barracks for Zhang Sui, and his reputation as Dean Zhang of Junshan Academy brought him a lot of convenience.
This can be seen from the size of the barracks arranged for him. Although Zhang Sui did not have high requirements for accommodation, he would not refuse if it was larger and more comfortable.
He smiled and thanked the soldier who informed him, and turned back to Taoist Yingde and said, "Taoist priest, you might as well come to my residence and sit for a while, and some friends from the Mengshan sect, please come with us."
Everyone did not refuse and followed him to his residence.
At Zhang Sui's residence, a group of people kept chatting. After all, the Mengshan sect had been in contact with the Red Flame Army for a long time and knew a lot about the battles with foreign tribes.
Through people from the Mengshan Sect, we learned that the aliens who had escaped from the underground had basically occupied two places in Jiannan Road and had already established a firm foothold.
Due to the ambiguous attitude of the imperial court, although the army that was confronting those foreign races was determined to drive them into the Black Forest, there were always some constraints that hindered the army's actions.
But even so, there were not many small-scale contact conflicts. The casualties on both sides were actually quite tragic.
The disadvantage of the human race is that there are not many practitioners, and many generals still lack understanding of current battles. When they encounter opponents who are proficient in all kinds of strange and strange spells, they are somewhat caught off guard and do not know how to deal with them. Ordinary soldiers suffer heavy casualties.
During this period, Feng Mang, the leader of the Red Flame Army, had been mobilizing his connections and inviting practitioners. The leader of the Mengshan Sect who was close to him was also attracted by him to act as a lobbyist. I heard that he was also traveling around to invite practitioners for him.
Practitioners from various sects came.
There are not many practitioners in the military camp in Bingzhou, mainly disciples of the Mengshan Sect, and some casual practitioners who came to help. According to the disciples of the Mengshan Sect, there are quite a lot of practitioners in the Anxi Prefecture camp now.
After chatting together, all the practitioners had a very good impression of the legendary Dean Zhang. Although it was a bit incredible for the elders to say that the extremely young-looking Dean Zhang was close to the immortal realm, but
Seeing that his attitude was calm and his words were quite funny, all the young people who had just entered Taoism felt very close to him.
Several disciples of the Donghua Sect couldn't help but ask Zhang Sui for advice on swordsmanship practice.
Zhang Sui's sword that opened the sky in the secluded land really made them astonished every time they thought about it.
Most of these disciples also use swords and admire Zhang Sui's swordsmanship very much. This kind of worship is similar to the feeling that a person who practices mortal swordsmanship feels when he suddenly sees a swordsman.
Zhang Sui laughed and took out the sword manual from his sleeve. This was the same book he had written and drawn on the road and taught it to his soldiers.
Looking at the sword art on the table, the eyes of everyone in the room lit up. This was something produced by a master of swordsmanship. How could it be any worse?
Seeing this, Taoist Yingde couldn't help but said: "Second Young Master, is this appropriate?"
A group of people looked at Zhang Sui eagerly.
Zhang Sui smiled and said: "I wrote this sword manual casually on the way, in order to show it to the big brothers who were accompanying me. Unfortunately, there are too few who are proficient in swordsmanship, and many of them are too old and not suitable for it.
It’s not really a top-notch sword technique, it should be just right for those who are new to Taoism. You can show it to fellow Taoists, and it can also be considered as a way to communicate.”
After speaking, he looked at the young practitioner who was looking at him eagerly and said: "I have recorded four sword techniques in this book. They still have some merits in the way of attack, and they do not require specific techniques to coordinate.
It can be called a technique, but not a method. You might as well take a look."
After speaking, he pushed the sword formula in front of Taoist Yingde. Taoist Yingde stood up, bowed and took it with both hands.
Looking at the people of the Mengshan Sect who were watching eagerly, Zhang Sui smiled and said: "There are no restrictions on this sword art. You can make a copy of it yourself, but not everyone is suitable for practicing this sword art."
He paused for a moment, then straightened his face, and then said: "Although there is no limit to the practice of this sword technique, I want to say it first. These sword techniques cannot be used on good people, otherwise they will be riddled with blood and resentment.
Don’t blame me for being mean!”
As he spoke, his tone became more serious.
When everyone heard this, their expressions condensed, and then they bowed and said yes.
Seeing this, Zhang Sui waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be so nervous. I wonder if your elders have told you about accumulating merit?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. Only Taoist Yingde was thoughtful when he heard the words.
Zhang Sui thought to himself: "It seems that most practitioners in this world have not paid much attention to the importance of merit." But he also thought of the blessed turtle. The benefactor it talked about must know the power of merit.
It's role, but I don't know why other sects don't have this concept.
Zhang Sui simply mentioned a few words: "The way of heaven is wise and the human race is prosperous. Benefits will be merits and demerits, and disasters will be calamities.
You may not feel anything yet, but as the awareness of heaven gradually expands its influence, the saying that the sky serves as a warning is no longer empty talk.
If you accumulate merit, everything will go smoothly; if you create disaster, everything will be blocked.
You can think about whether those sects in the spiritual world that hate evil or benefit the human race were the first to rise.
In fact, the Donghua School is the best example."
As he spoke, he looked at the Yingde Taoist on the side and continued: "The Donghua sect is full of staunch men. Although there are not many members in the sect, everything they do is consistent with the way of heaven. So now everyone has seen that they are practicing a sect.
The rapid progress in life is the result of accumulating merit."
Taoist Yingde and others from the Donghua sect looked somewhat enlightened, and they all bowed to Zhang Sui. Taoist Yingde said, "I'd like to thank you, Second Young Master, for clearing up my confusion."
Zhang Sui stood up and bowed in return, saying: "After I learned about what the Donghua Sect was doing, I actually had these thoughts in my mind, which can be regarded as confirming some of the opinions of my master."
Other practitioners also bowed to Zhang Sui and said, "Thank you, Dean Zhang, for your guidance!"
Gu Qin
Zhang Sui nodded, pointed to the sword manual, and said, "Go and copy it yourself. If you have any questions, you can come back to me!"
When everyone heard this, they all thanked Taoist Master Yingde and discussed with him to go to his residence to copy. Everyone went to prepare the copy.
Taoist Yingde also said goodbye to Zhang Sui and withdrew from Zhang Sui's camp.
Zhang Sui looked at the empty tent, raised his right hand, and saw a trace of dark purple power of merit wrapped around his fingertips. This was the feedback from heaven after what he said just now, and this power of merit turned out to be
It was still the merit of heaven, which surprised him a little.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Sui felt relieved. Strictly speaking, what he just said was a teaching, and it was reasonable to receive some heavenly merit.
It was almost evening at this time, and the setting sun was slowly setting toward the horizon.
The military camp is surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side.
There were sounds of soldiers practicing outside. Except for the voice of the orderer, all the rest was the sound of footsteps and horse hooves.
There are no less than five thousand people in this military camp. Except for the two thousand soldiers who came to respond, the rest are veterans. Most of the soldiers who respond are young. In this military camp, they are mainly responsible for security tasks. This is
Those who were training at that time were all veterans.
After Lao Lu and others entered the Chinese army's tent, they did not come out again and kept discussing things.
Zhang Sui felt a little depressed in the tent, so he took out a chair, went outside the tent, and lay down facing the river outside the camp.
Where Zhang Sui's camp is located, there are many other camps prepared for other practitioners.
It's just that most of the practitioners are staying in their tents at this time, and there is no one to be seen.
Zhang Sui is the only one who can lie leisurely outside and watch the scenery.
Zhang Sui squinted his eyes and lay there, feeling a little empty.
No matter where he went before, there was always Fang Xiong's tall figure beside him. Even if he didn't speak, he wouldn't feel bored.
Now that I am alone, I really feel that this world is so small and so cold.
Zhang Sui couldn't help but think about how those people who have lived forever after cultivating have lived a life without relatives and friends around them. It makes people uncomfortable to think about it.
Zhang Sui let his mind wander, thinking wildly, when he suddenly felt a tremor in his heart, and he immediately woke up.
Zhang Sui sat up, but the feeling in his heart had not dissipated.
Frowning, he let go of his spiritual sense and looked around, but found nothing strange.
Zhang Sui thought for a while, and used the art of knowing the earth to search for the Kongming alien race. What surprised Zhang Sui was that behind the mountains about twenty miles away from the four directions of the camp, there were no less than a hundred people of the Kongming alien race in each place.
gather.
Through long-term exploration and summary, when looking for a specific person, the strength of the halo around the target can be used to roughly judge the general strength of the person.
This is similar to the principle of showing the level of monsters on the map when Zhang Sui plays the game. Once you understand the principle, it is extremely convenient to use.
To the north, one of the light spots representing the Kongming Tribe has more than ten times the light and shadow around it. Judging from its strength, it should be around the peak of the Human Immortal Realm.
Zhang Sui couldn't sit still anymore and stood up immediately. It seemed that the warnings in his heart were brought by the Kongming clan.
Seeing the Kongming Tribe like this, they seemed to be planning something, which triggered a spiritual warning for themselves.
In fact, in the military camp, scouts are sent to all directions every day. However, the places where the Kongming tribe gathers are in dense mountain forests far away from the roads. It is difficult for humans and animals to travel in these places. If those scouts did not deliberately go to those places to search, they would not be able to find them at all.
No trace of them could be found.
Some tiny sword lights emerged from Zhang Sui's fingertips. These sword lights were extremely small, but there were many in number, no less than a thousand.
These sword lights were dispersed and combined in front of Zhang Sui. Zhang Sui felt very comfortable. He nodded and flicked his fingers. The sword lights were combined into a palm-sized sword light and went straight to the Chinese army's tent. The target
It's the old road.
There were not many people in the Chinese army's large tent, less than twenty people.
Sitting at the top was a scholar who looked to be in his forties. He was leaning on the big chair, yawning, and watching the people below discussing military affairs.
Lao Lu and You De were nesting in the corner, looking at the people arguing. They looked indifferent and whispered a few words from time to time.
The person who was arguing was Tong Yin and a soldier in his thirties. As for the content of the dispute, it was nothing more than the ownership of these old soldiers.
The person above who was taking a nap suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes and shouted softly: "Sure!"
As soon as a sword light entered the camp, it was restrained in the air by an invisible force.
The man let out a light sigh and waved his hand to disperse the restraining force. He did not feel any murderous intent in the sword light. Although it was a sword light, it was extremely peaceful.
The people who were arguing all became quiet when they saw this. After the sword light took off its restraints, it came directly to the old road and suddenly spread out into countless tiny sword lights to form a line of small characters.
Lao Lu took a closer look and saw something written in the air: "Lao Lu, take me to the person in charge quickly!" The writing disappeared in a flash.
No one else could see it clearly, only Lao Lu could see it clearly.
Lao Lu knew that Zhang Sui would not use this method to find him if there was nothing urgent.
He quickly stood up, raised his hands to the man sitting at the top and said: "Mr. Feng, just now Dean Zhang Suizhang sent me a message, saying that he has something urgent to see you!"
Mr. Feng sat up straight and said, "Is that the young Dean Zhang of Junshan Academy?"
Lao Lu nodded in agreement.
Mr. Feng stood up directly and said: "Let's go, Lao Lu, Lao Tong, and General Guan. The three of us will go see Dean Zhang to see what he wants."
Tong Yin and General Guan stopped arguing. General Guan frowned and said, "Can't we just let Captain Lu pass him over? Why should Mr. Feng go there in person?"
Mr. Feng smiled and said: "General Guan doesn't know something. This Dean Zhang is no ordinary person. If you don't want to go, just stay here. Lao Lu and the others can just go there."
After saying that, he stood up and walked directly to the gate of the barracks. Lao Lu and Tong Yin followed Mr. Feng without hesitation. General Naguan hesitated for a moment, then also got up and followed him out of the barracks.
