"Fellow Taoists, we have entered the territory of Fenglinzhou, please pay attention."
A dull voice sounded inside the flying boat.
Qi Xuansu looked out through the window and saw only white mist filling the sky, blocking out the sun and making it impossible to see the sea and land below.
This made Qi Xuansu realize something was wrong. How could there be such a heavy fog?
Immediately afterwards, the entire spaceship shook suddenly.
Qi Xuansu's expression changed immediately, and he immediately left the cabin and came to the deck.
Now that Qi Xuansu has become a heavenly being, the strong wind cannot blow him.
Qi Xuansu looked up and saw a huge figure vaguely appearing in front of him, which made his heart sink completely.
After a while, the thick fog dissipated, and this huge figure was completely revealed.
This is a giant snake that is comparable to a real dragon. It is pitch black and has patterns on its scales that resemble snake pupils. It is breathtaking. What is even more terrifying is that it has eight heads and eight tails. Its eyes are red and are just snake eyes.
It was larger than a human being, with moss, juniper and fir trees growing on its body. Its belly was bloody, as if it had been disemboweled. .??.
Eight snake heads covered the sky and the sun, and just now one of the snake heads attacked the flying boat.
If Qi Xuansu admits his mistake correctly, this big snake should be the legendary monster of Fenglinzhou, the Yamata no Orochi.
According to the records of "Kojiki", Yamata no Orochi has eight heads and eight tails, which can fill eight valleys and eight hills. This is the origin of the name and one of the reasons why he can touch the flying boat.
It comes from Takashi to Izumo and eats a virgin every year as a sacrifice.
People often mistakenly think that it is the legendary Hydra in the Central Plains, but the Hydra has one tail and nine heads, while the Yamata no Orochi is a giant monster with eight heads and eight tails. The Yamata in the name does not refer to the bifurcation of the body.
place, but its head and tail.
Qi Xuansu's first reaction was: Am I in conflict with Feizhou?
Last time I met the ancient immortal Wu Luo, this time I met the legendary monster Yamata no Orochi?
In other words, this is Fenglinzhou's meeting gift, a little shock to Fenglinzhou?
In terms of cultivation level, this Yamata no Orochi is at least the first level of Immortal Immortal. How can a small heavenly being like him be able to compete with it? There are indeed many Immortals in the Taoist sect, but there is not a single Immortal here.
The key is that he was riding an ordinary flying boat, not the battleship "Yinglong".
Could it be that……
The next moment, the three snake heads moved together, like mountains rising across the sky, directly smashing the flying boat into pieces.
Last time, Qi Xuansu was not a heavenly being
, unable to fly. This time, Qi Xuansu has become a heavenly being. However, in front of such a peerless monster, Qi Xuansu does not dare to fly rashly. If he is noticed, he will die.
So he could only fall downwards with the disintegrated wreckage of the spaceship.
I don’t know how much time passed, but Yamata no Orochi disappeared.
Qi Xuansu pushed away a piece of the wreckage of the flying boat that was pressing on him, and stood up slowly. He was wearing a "Yiyi Cloud Clothes", which had the effect of shielding the breath, and was very tough and not damaged.
At the same time, Qi Xuansu was also a little lucky. Legend has it that this monster likes to eat women. Fortunately, there were no virgins on the flying boat, so he was just crushed by it. If he was swallowed by it, he would not be able to escape death regardless of what he wore.
Qi Xuansu looked around. Because the airship was smashed, rather than sliding and falling, the fragments were relatively concentrated. The surroundings were full of wreckage of the airship, and there were also many corpses. Under such a violent impact, it would be difficult for ordinary people to leave intact corpses.
However, the people on the flying boat all had cultivation bases and strong bodies, so most of the bodies were well preserved, and there might be some survivors.
Qi Xuansu took out the "Golden Purple Fish Talisman" and found that he could not contact Qiniang. As Qiniang said, it was difficult to use it beyond the scope of the Central Plains. However, there were Taoist and Taoist troops stationed in Fenglinzhou, so the "Zhongji Sutra"
"It still works.
Qi Xuansu didn't know where he was, and made up his mind to leave this place as soon as possible to avoid encountering the completely unbeatable Yamata no Orochi again, but before that, he had to search the surrounding area to see if there were any survivors.
, if there are any, take them away together, and then look for where the Taoist army is stationed.
By the way, as for those bodies, it's best to bury them on the spot to avoid falling into the belly of jackals.
Qi Xuansu first dug a deep pit, but it was shallow and could easily be dug out by wild beasts. Then he began to search around. If he encountered a body, he put it in the deep pit.
Soon, Qi Xuansu heard a faint shout.
Fortunately, Qi Xuansu is a genuine heavenly being with sharp ears and eyes, so others would really not be able to hear it.
Qi Xuansu followed the sound, pushed aside a piece of debris, and dragged out the person calling for help.
This time the flying boat fell from a much lower height than the one at Kunlun Pass. The man was a martial artist, so he was not killed on the spot. However, under the huge impact, his internal organs were injured, his energy and blood were severely damaged, and his flesh and blood were damaged.
He can only barely maintain his supernatural power, but his life is still hanging by a thread. He has fallen into a coma.
, the so-called calling for help is just a subconscious whisper.
Qi Xuansu did not hesitate too much and injected a divine power into him.
When it comes to curing diseases and saving people, true energy and magical power are both weak. Qi and blood can save oneself, but not others. Divine power is real. People have always formed associations and rebelled, and Fu Shui's magical power is necessary for curing diseases and saving people, but Qi Xuansu did not learn this.
However, pure divine power can also alleviate the injury. In addition, the opponent is a martial artist. As long as he can take this breath, he can recover on his own.
It is precisely because his Qi and blood were extremely weak at this time that the warrior's rejection of divine power and magic power was also reduced to a minimum.
Soon, the warrior's breathing gradually calmed down, and his face turned a little red.
After a while, he finally opened his eyes and saw Qi Xuansu beside him. Once he sensed the situation in his body, he immediately understood what was going on. He struggled to stand up and salute: "Han Yongfeng, the director of Liaodong Daofu, thanks the deputy hall master for his help.
The rescue is a great kindness and will be unforgettable. Please give me instructions, Deputy Hall Master."
The Taoist sect mobilizes troops. Tiangangtang is the central forbidden army, and each Taoist government is the local garrison. This large-scale troop deployment is naturally based on Tiangangtang, but in addition to Kunlun Taoism, Xiyu Taoism, Lingnan Taoism, and Borneo Taoism
Except for the several Taoist mansions that have greater pressure to defend the territory, the other Taoist mansions have deployed troops to varying degrees. The Golden Account has been in decline for many years, so the Liaodong Taoist mansion is no exception.
According to the rules of the Taoist sect, if the command system is broken up, it will be commanded by the highest-ranking spiritual officer or Taoist priest. This is also one of the functions of the Taoist sect’s grade system, allowing the disorganized Taoist sect disciples to quickly integrate into one place and restore the organization and unity.
combat effectiveness.
Xuan Sheng has set the rules to death. No matter what one’s background is or what one’s level of cultivation is, grade is the most useful thing.
Of course, there are also situations where high-grade Taoist priests are not as good as low-grade Taoist priests. For example, high-grade Taoist priests lack experience, are not proficient in command, etc. But again, stability cannot be restored, reorganization cannot be completed, and there is no command at all, so in the end
The effective plan is to quickly move closer to the person with the highest rank. To choose the lesser of two evils, the rules must be firmly established.
After gathering the remaining soldiers, the high-grade Taoist priest can completely authorize the low-grade Taoist priest who is good at command to take command on his behalf, thus completing the temporary reorganization.
After the initial integration and reorganization is completed, the next step will be like a snowball, and many separated middle and high-level Taoist priests will quickly get closer and then perform their respective duties according to their level.
Although Qi Xuansu's third grade is a job grade, his job grade is also a grade. As long as Jinque does not remove him from his job, then he is a genuine third grade Youyi.
Taoist priest Han Yongfeng is a fourth-grade Taoist priest in charge. He is under Qi Xuansu in terms of position and Taoist grade. According to the rules, he must obey Qi Xuansu's orders at this time.
Qi Xuansu signaled him not to be polite and asked: "How is your injury?"
Han Yongfeng said: "Thank you, Deputy Hall Master, for your concern. I can walk without any problems, but it will take another three or two days to fully recover."
Qi Xuansu nodded and said: "In the current situation, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let us search for the injured as soon as possible and bury the dead. You and I will act separately."
"Here." Han Yongfeng responded in a deep voice.
If it were Qi Xuansu in the past, I'm afraid he would have to leave the dangerous place first, but now Qi Xuansu is different and the responsibilities he bears are also different.
There is a famous saying in Confucianism: "The punishment is not as good as that of a great official, and the courtesy is not as good as that of a common man."
To put it bluntly, rights and obligations are equal. The latter sentence means that common people have no obligation to observe etiquette. In the context of Confucianism, family and country are one, and loyalty to the emperor means loyalty to the country, and loyalty to the emperor is the greatest courtesy.
This is a requirement for scholar-officials, not for the common people.
To put it simply, when the dynasty changes, the people who have no choice in power will not be harshly criticized if they abandon the emperor in the face of the butcher's knife. But the scholar-officials cannot do that. They must be loyal to the emperor. It is the matter of being loyal to the emperor by eating the emperor's salary. If the scholar-officials also choose
Surrendering and submitting is regarded as a breach of integrity.
To expand, under the ethical system of Confucianism, the moral integrity of men and women is not the same. Because the king is the guide for the ministers, a man's moral code is to be loyal to his master. Because the husband is the guide for his wife, a woman's moral code is to keep chastity for her husband.
.So under the Confucian system, men do not have to be loyal to their wives, and women do not have to be loyal to the monarch, except for special cases such as queens.
Of course, if someone is willing to take on more responsibilities, such as ordinary people organizing to resist foreign enemies, then he is not a commoner, but a righteous man. Like scholar-officials, having the title of "scholar" is a great honor, but
The word "righteousness" not only means loyalty, but also has a meaning similar to prosthetic limbs, but it is still false after all.
In the same way, it is a good story if a man is willing to observe integrity for his wife, or if a woman is loyal to the monarch.
Although Taoism overthrew the Confucian system, Qi Xuansu still recognized this. Taoism gave him power, status, and honor, so he must shoulder his due responsibilities.
Fortunately, the flying boat did not fly high this time, and the two of them found four more surviving injured people. Qi Xuansu spent about two hundred moments of divine power to revive them one by one, and then buried the rest of the corpses.
