The leader of Taiping Taoism was actually from the Celestial Master Taoism!
If you think about it carefully, this is indeed a possibility!
Zhang Jiao's cultivation level is not simple, and he is probably already a Taoist monk.
The three volumes of Taiping Taoism are in Lei Hu's hands, and the contents have been understood for a long time. If a beginner wants to practice to the level of a heavenly being in one go, it will take hundreds of years for him to do so.
Zhang Jiao is obviously not that old, which can be inferred from the ages of his two younger brothers.
Sure enough, according to the Nanhua Taoist saying, Zhang Jiao's extraordinary talent is a peerless genius in cultivation. Not to mention that he has already entered Taoism at a young age, his cultivation is outstanding among his peers, and he even surpasses the direct descendants of the sect.
As the saying goes, if a tree is beautiful in the forest, it will be driven away by the wind, and Zhang Jiao cannot escape this fate.
The indiscriminate suppression of the direct lineage of the sect is actually nothing. It is just a small trick that is disgusting, but it does not hinder Zhang Jiao's own safety in the slightest.
After all, Zhang Jiao has already shown his talent in cultivation, and the elders of the sect will not allow his direct lineage to go too far.
The main reason was that Zhang Jiao was angry. Because he could not practice the sect's core classics, the dissatisfaction accumulated in his heart exploded and almost caused a big mess.
It is precisely because of this that Zhang Jiao, who was young and extremely talented, was given up by the sect.
Nan Hua Taoist happened to meet Zhang Jiao who was expelled from the sect and was in a gloomy state. Seeing that he was indeed a talent that could be developed, he observed him for a while and sent him three volumes of Taiping Taoism.
Since the three volumes of Taiping Taoism were mentioned, Lei Hu was not polite and directly asked about their sources.
Old Taoist Nanhua smiled, not knowing what he was thinking, and said in a calm and leisurely tone: "Although the three volumes of Taiping Dao Book are not as good as the cultivation methods directly transmitted by the Celestial Master Dao, they are still among the best cultivation books in the Tao sect. They are the first cultivation books in the world that can directly reach the realm of immortals."
Dharma can be said to be very few!”
"What I am most curious about is why, fellow Taoist, you sent three volumes of Taiping Taoism to Zhangjiao!"
After talking for a while, the atmosphere was pretty good. Lei Hu did not make any cover and said bluntly: "There must be some reason for this. I wonder if you can tell me the truth?"
In this world, there is no love without reason, and there is no hatred without reason.
The old Taoist Nan Hua was definitely not a living thunder peak. He casually gave Zhang Jiao a three-volume book of Taiping Taoism that could lead directly to the peak of immortality. No matter how generous he was, he would not do this without any reason.
If this was really the case, Nan Hua Lao Dao's reputation would not be nearly empty. There must be some inside information that could not be explained to outsiders, and he wanted to know it clearly.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, do you think Zhang Jiao started the Yellow Turban Rebellion because of his veteran Taoism?"
Nanhua Old Taoist chuckled lightly, without any trace of anger on his face, and said leisurely: "The old Taoist's intention is actually to let Zhang Jiao expand the Taoist sect's influence!"
"What does this mean?"
Lei Hu asked directly: "The Taoist sect can be said to be the only one in the Han Dynasty. There is no need to continue to expand its influence!"
Not to mention the process of expanding influence, it is actually fighting for the right to speak with aristocratic families and local powerful people. This is obviously too eye-catching. If someone is not good, you have to oppose it even if you don't want to.
At the same time, something moved in my heart, and I thought of something, but I didn't know if it was true.
"This is a secret of the Tao Sect!"
Nanhua Old Taoist smiled and changed the subject, and said leisurely: "The old Taoist sent three volumes of Taiping Dao books to Zhang Jiao, just hoping that he can spread the influence of Taoism more deeply into people's hearts in the secular world!"
"Haha, it's hard for me to believe what fellow Taoist said!"
Lei Hu looked calm and said calmly: "No matter what the original intention is, once too many people gather together, it will arouse the vigilance and precautions of those in power!"
"If that's all it is, it's easy to say!"
Old Nanhua Taoist shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that when Zhang Jiao was gathering people's hearts and spreading the influence of the Taoist sect, he expanded his ambitions that he shouldn't have. He actually wanted to establish a Taoist kingdom on earth!"
He shook his head as he spoke, with a look of regret and anger on his face.
"Isn't it good?"
Lei Hu smiled and asked: "If we really let him succeed, the Taoist country in the world, the influence of the Taoist sect will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As long as the Taoist country does not fall, this influence will always exist!"
"Fellow Taoist, you are joking, can there be a dynasty in this world that will not fall?"
A trace of sarcasm appeared on Old Nanhua's face, and he said coldly: "Once the Tao Kingdom collapses, the Taoist sect will encounter an unprecedented disaster. The losses will be so great that the mere influence of the Tao Kingdom on the human world cannot make up for it!"
This is true!
Before Lei Hu could speak, Old Immortal Nanhua continued: "Not to mention the big words of the Dao Kingdom in the human world, since Zhang Jiao's death, the Dao Sect has suffered extremely heavy blows and suppression!"
At this point, his tone became cold, and he said helplessly: "Otherwise, Tianshi Dao would not have promoted Zhang Lu, a junior, to live in Hanzhong. It is just to maintain the influence of the Taoist sect!"
"Oh, Hanzhong Zhang Lu was pushed out by the Taoist sect?"
Lei Hu nodded in understanding and said with a smile: "I heard that the Five Pecks of Rice Sect is quite popular in Hanzhong!"
"Hmph, after all, Zhang Jiao is from the Tianshi Sect. The aftermath of the Yellow Turban War has had a huge impact on the Taoist sect. They always have to express something, and taking the lead is an inevitable choice!"
Nanhua Taoist regained his composure and said calmly: "We have to attract all the dissatisfied forces no matter what. At the same time, we are also warning the princes in the world not to go too far. If we really want to make a fuss, how can Yizhou Liu Yan withstand the Heavenly Master?"
The means of Tao?"
"Okay, Zhang Jiao is already in the past tense. I wonder what your friend is doing here?"
Lei Hu chuckled and changed the subject. He was not interested in any of these, regardless of whether they were sects or not. As long as they did not affect the order of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, it was all nothing.
As for what Mr. Nan Hua said, he just listened to it. Zhang Jiao had been hanging around for several years anyway, so Mr. Nan Hua couldn't just say whatever he wanted.
"Fellow Taoist is from a Taoist sect!"
Nanhua Old Taoist smiled and said: "My cultivation level is much better than when I first met Zhang Jiao!"
Lei Hu smiled and said nothing. Isn't this normal?
How could he possibly control the increasingly prosperous Yellow Turban collar if he was really as weak as the rumors say?
With the prosperity of the Yellow Turban collar, not too many demons and monsters are pouring in here. They come one by one with the idea of picking up advantages and disadvantages, and gather around the big chief's mansion through various means and channels.
No matter how strict the security measures at the Grand Chief's Mansion are, there will always be times when things are a bit sparse.
Do you really think that the princes around you are all good people, and they won’t use assassination to get rid of your competitors?
During the five years of brief peace in the world, the Grand Chief's Mansion suffered at least thirty assassinations, and Lei Hu himself suffered even more assassinations.
There are also those with evil intentions who need to be dealt with and deterred. In short, under the bright and prosperous appearance of the Yellow Turbans, there are many dangerous and unpredictable undercurrents.
He is now a majestic immortal, not to mention the most powerful in the world. Anyway, since he traveled to the end of the Han Dynasty, he has basically never encountered a stronger existence.
However, the old Taoist Nanhua can see through it at a glance. Regardless of whether he really sees his own cultivation level, it can at least prove that this old Taoist's cultivation level is definitely higher than his own.
To treat the strong, you must have enough respect.
Nan Hua Taoist looked ordinary, at least Lei Hu couldn't see his depth. Either he had a very strong ability to hide his aura, or his own strength was far superior to his own. Lei Hu could see this very clearly.
"Fellow Taoist should have obtained three volumes of Taiping Taoism!"
Nan Hua Taoist smiled and opened his mouth, suddenly revealing the secret that Lei Hu had tried so hard to hide. Looking at his confident look, it was obvious that he was extremely confident in this.
"Oh, how did fellow Taoist know about it?"
Lei Hu's reaction was unexpectedly calm, and he smiled and said: "These three volumes of Taiping Taoism were originally given to Zhang Jiao by Taoist friends. I guess I must have seen some clues!"
Nan Hua, an old Taoist, smiled and said nothing, showing off his superior demeanor.
"Speak up if you have anything to say!"
Lei Hu did not have the mentality of being accustomed to the old ways, and said directly: "Let's see if I can accept it!"
"Fellow Taoist, you are quite happy!"
Nanhua Taoist smiled lightly and said leisurely: "Since the three volumes of Taiping Taoist books have fallen into the hands of fellow Taoists, and fellow Taoists are among the Yellow Turbans, can they continue Zhang Jiao's role?"
"Why, you want to use the Yellow Turban collar as the home base of a certain Taoist branch?"
Smiling softly, Lei Hu asked calmly and curiously: "The Yellow Turban collar was built by someone's hands and feet. It's impossible for fellow Taoists to just say a few indifferent words and just want to use this place as a base for cultivating Taoist disciples, right?"
"Fellow Taoist, you are joking!"
Old Nanhua Taoist had a good temper and was not affected at all. He asked with a smile: "Is it true that the Yellow Turban Leader at this time is not promoting Taoist thoughts and spreading Taoist beliefs?"
Lei Hu smiled and nodded without refuting, is Taiping Road considered a branch of Taoism?
It definitely counts.
He was born in Taiping Dao, so he was naturally a member of the Taoist sect.
The current Yellow Turban collars are naturally spreading ideas such as Taiping Dao, but they are not as smooth as Chairman Zhang Jiaosan.
It can be said that the Yellow Turban collar is the base of Taoism belief.
But, so what?
Lei Hu is willing to do all this and being instigated by others, the results may be completely different.
Besides, one old Taoist from Nanhua was enough to cause a headache, and he didn't want to have a few more Taoists with great powers in his territory.
Who knows if there are ambitious people inside who want to replace Lei Hu?
In other words, the development of the Yellow Turban collar is so dazzling that it even has the qualifications to dominate the world, which is more than the original Zhang Jiao Niu Bi.
At least Zhang Jiao was defeated by the official army, but the Yellow Turban leader easily defeated the Jizhou army. This is the difference.
Zhang Jiao's attempt to establish a Taoist kingdom in the human world failed. Who knows if such a lunatic still exists in the Taoist sect?
Although Lei Hu is not afraid, such guys are definitely Taoist fanatics, and they are definitely Nangan's existence. He does not want to waste his thoughts and energy on this.
"Fellow Taoist, don't worry!"
Seemingly reading Lei Hu's thoughts, Nan Hua Taoist smiled and said: "The old Taoist has no ill intentions in this trip. He is even willing to contribute to the development and growth of the Yellow Turban Collar. I just don't know if you are willing?"
"How do fellow Taoists want to contribute?"
Lei Hu became interested and asked: "Let me explain in advance, I have not agreed to trade with fellow Taoist!"
