Chu Gou was a little confused at first. He didn't expect that the sect master would assign him such a task to teach the method.
In the words of the sect leader, it is to convey the ideas and methods of the Taoist sect and at the same time show the strength of the Taoist sect.
"Passing on Taoism's ideas and methods" is easy to understand. But later on there is an explanation for "showing Taoism's strength". Anyway, Chugou's understanding is to beat anyone who is not convinced until they are convinced.
Starting from the west, we will go to each place in the order on the list. Then we will go around in a big circle and finally return to the cliff mountain.
The first thing Chu Gou did was to find people. The sect owner said that he could find people by himself, and the number should be controlled within five people. So Chu Gou decided to find four more people to go with him.
First of all, you need to have decent strength, at least to be recognized by Chugou, and then there must be clear complementarity. The complementarity here refers not only to the battle, but also to the various matters that need to complement each other during the journey westward.
.
For example, Chu Dog is very good at fighting, but is incompetent at dealing with people. The journey to the west is not only about fighting and killing, but also about wandering among various forces.
In addition, we need people who know how to plan and can carefully detect as many dangers and traps as possible.
Of course, in the end, these people must be willing to follow the ruthless dog on this trip.
Chu Gou first went through the people he needed to find in his mind, and then listed all the names of people who met these conditions on a piece of paper. Finally, he went to the door and asked one by one to see if the other person was willing.
After a lot of trouble, Chu Gou found all the people smoothly. No one refused his invitation. So the four people he found were all the best candidates in Chu Gou's mind from the beginning.
Three of them are third-generation disciples, just like rut dogs. One is a fourth-generation disciple.
Is there anyone among the fourth generation disciples who can catch the eye of a ruthless dog?
Of course there is. The fourth-generation chief disciple, the deacon of the Foreign Affairs Hall, Zeng Youren. A fourth-generation disciple who is in his twenties but has strength that is not inferior to that of the top three-generation disciples.
It is said that Zeng Youren was an apprentice in the arts at that time, and in secular terms he was a close relative of the sect master. Chu Gou found this person because he was interested in his strength. Secondly, he was interested in his identity as the deacon of the foreign affairs hall and his ability to deal with people. In this way, in the future
It will be much simpler when dealing with human nations.
After everyone was gathered, we began to arrange the route to the west.
Originally, I wanted to find a map to mark all the places required to go on the copper strip, but it turned out that the only maps that could be found in the mountains were those of the human countries. The maps of the demon country were only minimalist ones with territorial boundaries.
There is no way to use the map to judge geographical location.
So the five people discussed and decided to make preparations first, and then go to the western border of Nanyuan Kingdom to look for a map. Even if they couldn't find a detailed map, at least there should be a rough topographic map. Then they would go to the Demon Kingdom to look for it. They would look for it as they walked.
That’s it.
It may seem careless, but there really is nothing to prepare for. In the words of my senior fellow disciple, the fat man with dark skin, he just knocked on the door to teach the Dharma, and if he didn't listen, he would beat him.
The words are rough but the reasoning is rough. Especially for the demon clan, no one in the five-person group has a good impression of them.
Before leaving, the five people each received three jade cards. The jade cards are divided into three colors, green, red and blue. The cyan comes from Liu Rui, the master of the Chuanfa Hall, the red comes from Wang Nian, the master of the Alchemy Hall, and the blue one comes from Yang Rui, the master of the Law Enforcement Hall.
The usage of these three-sided jade cards is to directly crush them. After crushing, the hall master of the corresponding color will feel the emotion, and then come on the shuttle. It can be understood as a "rescue card" with a certain time buffer.
On the day of the journey to the west, Zhang Yan personally appeared at the mountain gate to see the five people off. This also made the disciples on the cliff mountain who had been speculating about the purpose of the journey to the west suddenly become angry, secretly thinking that the master of the sect valued the journey to the west so much?!
So what is the purpose of the westward journey? Very few people really know, but this does not prevent people from slowly guessing it as the westward journey progresses.
Half a year later, the five-person group had left the territory of the human race and entered deep into the territory of the Haoyue Demon Kingdom.
The reason why I'm not moving fast is not because of my footwork. It's because I don't know the road and I do it on purpose. Because I have to look for detailed maps and plan the next route. Going too fast is easy to make detours. And along the way
They should also set aside time to learn the language of the demon clan.
Not every demon clan can speak the common language. And if you just come to the demon clan to fight and kill, there is really no need to learn the demon clan's language. You can just chop with a knife. The one who is alive is considered a winner, and the one who is dead is considered a loser.
easy to understand.
But if you want to teach the Dharma, you can't just rely on the knife in your hand, you also need your mouth.
Zeng Youren's plan is to go to a place, first kill the group of strong men they think are the strongest, not necessarily kill them all, pick the most famous ones to kill, and then kill the monsters who died after killing them.
Enemies, pass on Taoist methods. You can even leave some practice books and talent rulers as a basis.
If you go to seize other people's territory, you may be regarded as a life-and-death enemy. But if you just kill a handful of the strongest people, leave some things behind, and leave without affecting the basic order of the place, this will not be raised to the level of "
"enemies" level.
Moreover, the ethnic groups in the demon clan are complex and the structure of the demon kingdom is loose. As long as they grasp their own internal contradictions, it is not difficult to tear open the opening and stuff the Taoist things in. It just takes some time.
But when it comes to passing on the method, it is not about passing on what Chuguo and the others have learned to the demon clan. It is about some of the methods listed separately by the sect leader before leaving, as well as the aura-based breathing and breathing technique.
Different from what the disciples in the cliff mountain learned, what was given to the Yao Clan was a kind of cultivation method called "physical cultivation" by the sect leader. Although it was also based on spiritual energy, it paid more attention to the torture of the physical body. This is consistent with the
The previous path of the demon clan is similar, and it is easier for the demon clan to accept it.
And it’s not just a method of imparting “physical cultivation” to the demon clan. It is also a method of imparting this kind of physical cultivation to the various human countries that I will visit in the future.
When Chu Gou got this method, he was curious and tried it. It turned out that the way of physical cultivation is not easy, and it requires a lot of time and resources to torture the physical body. If you want to practice martial arts, time and resources will be too much.
You have to think carefully about it. In the end, the bastard chose to give up. He understood the principle of biting off more than he could chew. It was better to just follow his original path honestly.
As for danger, at least the five-person group has not encountered it in more than half a year. They even feel that the top demon clan powerhouses do not exist in the places on the list. Coupled with their identity in the cliff mountain, the demon kingdom’s military force has no way of pretending to them.
He was deaf and mute and turned a blind eye. Although it is an exaggeration to say that he was walking sideways in the demon country, it was true that he was able to pass the law without any hindrance.
