"Why, do you think the word "protection fee" sounds unpleasant?" Zhang Zhiwei said lightly.
"Yes!" Guan Shihua nodded: "This is usually a term used by black dogs in the fish and meat village!"
Black-skinned dogs refer to the patrols of warlords. Because they often collude with officials and gentry to oppress the people in fish and meat villages, they are called "black-skinned dogs" in the public.
"The opinions of outsiders are meaningless. They are all delusions imposed by the outside world. If you care too much, you will be controlled by the outside world. In fact, whether it is protection fees or tax collection, it is the same thing, as long as it is true Just do something practical."
"Our Tianshi Mansion is located in Shangqing Town and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land around Longhu Mountain. We have countless tenants. We are the largest landowners in that area. But as long as we are not in the Fish and Meat Township, it doesn't matter if we are called a landlord!"
Zhang Zhiwei said lightly that the industry in Longhu Mountain sounds exaggerated, but in fact it is not exaggerated at all. You must know that Tianshi Mansion was first started by a warlord.
The grandson of the ancestral Celestial Master Zhang Daoling and the third generation Celestial Master Zhang Lu, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, he even led a group of bull noses and occupied the entire Hanzhong for nearly thirty years.
Now the Tianshi Mansion only has one-third of an acre of land in Shangqing Town. It can only be said that the family members are in a state of destitution.
"Senior Brother Zhang is right!" Guan Shihua said quickly.
"By the way, where are we in Changbai Mountain now?" Zhang Zhiwei asked. Regarding Shihua as the guide, he basically had no involvement in what happened after entering the mountain.
Guan Shihua said: "We have passed the snow line and entered the depths of Changbai Mountain. Brother Zhang, have you noticed that the surroundings are completely white now? The snow on the ground must be at least half a meter thick. Thanks to the power of this talisman horse, If it were an ordinary horse, I'm afraid it would be difficult to move!"
"That's right!" At this time, Wang Ai came to pick up the topic again: "Senior Brother Zhang's talisman horse is very useful. Not to mention this kind of snowy road, even very steep cliffs can be run up as if on flat ground. , Shi Hua'er, you have to be careful, this horse doesn't have stirrups or reins, you have to hug the horse's neck tightly to avoid being thrown off!"
Wang Ai thoughtfully taught Guan Shihua his experience. When he first started riding, he suffered a lot in trying to keep up with the pace of the three reckless men in front of him.
"You should worry about yourself. This difficulty is nothing to me. When I was a child, I often went to the forest with the immortals to catch wild boars to ride on. Compared with wild boars, Brother Zhang's talisman horse, It’s so useful!” Guan Shihua said.
"Sure enough, there are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames. One pig, two bears and three tigers. If you catch a wild boar and ride it, no wonder I call you Huniu!" Zhang Zhiwei said with a smile.
"It all happened when I was a child, thanks to the immortal family's pampering!" Guan Shihua said.
"Are you very close to the Xian family?" Zhang Zhiwei asked.
"It depends on the person. Some immortals are easy to get close to, and some are not easy to get close to. However, maybe because they watched me grow up, the immortals are all very nice to me, just like family members!" Guan Shihua said .
Zhang Zhiwei thought thoughtfully, Master often said that the alien world is not about fighting and killing, but about worldliness. From this point of view, cultivating the horse immortal world is the real worldliness.
Afterwards, Zhang Zhiwei stopped talking and looked at the surrounding scenery as he walked.
The scenery of Changbai Mountain is very beautiful. Looking up, every section of the mountain has a different color.
The sky and the mountain peaks set against each other, creating a sense of majesty that still makes people feel excited.
But at the same time, the level of danger is also rising. The further you go in, the more dangerous it becomes.
At this moment, they were galloping on a snow-covered slope of more than 60 degrees. Thanks to the power of the talisman horses, if they were ordinary horses, they would have been capsized long ago.
Climbing up the slope, they came to the ridge of this hill. From here, they could see the higher mountains ahead and the forest they had walked through.
Guan Shihua looked far ahead, pointed in front and said:
"Look, the ancient trees ahead are originally towering, but there is an area that looks a little sparse. It should have been cut down a long time ago."
Zhang Zhiwei said: "In ancient times, when building mausoleums and tombs, we usually used local materials. What you mean is that we are already very close to the imperial mausoleum."
All they can use is a compass. Although it has the general direction, it has no details.
Guan Shihua nodded: "That's right. We didn't encounter any particularly difficult obstacles along the way. There must have been major ancient projects near here, so the mountain has been repaired. There should be no problem with the guidance of the dragon-seeking compass. The destination should be right ahead.”
"But everyone, please be careful. There are air bubbles under the snow. It is not only thick, but also very loose. It can easily slide. You must follow the team closely. If you get lost here, you will be in trouble. Don't talk about this bad weather. , even in weather with excellent visibility, trekking on snow is extremely dangerous."
As the group continued to move forward, the snow became thicker and thicker, slowly changing from half a meter deep to more than one meter deep, even covering most of the horses.
With this kind of thickness, it would be difficult for an ordinary horse to move even an inch. Even a rune horse would need to leap up from time to time, otherwise it would easily be submerged in the vast snow.
Not only that, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and my ears were filled with the sound of wind. When I wanted to say something, I opened my mouth, and the cold wind poured straight into it. Even though they all put on bearskin coats, they still felt Arrived cold.
"Look, what's going on? Why are there a series of footprints in the snow?"
Wang Ai suddenly pointed forward and shouted loudly.
Everyone looked at it.
Sure enough, on the snow ahead, there was a series of footprints leading into the distance.
"Is there anyone else in front of us?" Lu Jin asked.
"What are you thinking? With such heavy snow, even if there are people in front, the footprints should be covered in snow!" Lu Ci said.
"This string of footprints seems to have a special magic power, which makes me have the urge to follow it!" Wang Ai said.
Wu Gensheng smiled and said: "When I came here, I heard some old visitors say that the wind and snow in Changbai Mountain contain the souls of people who died in the snow before. These souls are very lonely and want to leave more people to accompany them. They, so they will walk in front of people and leave footprints. Many people mistakenly think that someone is walking in front of them and want to catch up with them excitedly. In the end, they never come out. Have we met these lost souls? "
Guan Shihua nodded and said: "This statement sounds absurd, but there are indeed many visitors who say that they saw footprints while walking. You must not follow the footprints at this time. You must choose another path, because as soon as you follow If you go up there, you will follow until you die, and those footprints will never end."
"This situation..." Zhang Zhiwei heard some scientific explanations, saying that the length of human legs is always slightly different, and they will involuntarily move to one side.
You can't tell it from a short distance, but if you walk a long way, you will walk in a circle and return to the same place.
Those who are attracted by the footprints and go to a dead end are actually seeing their own previous footprints.
He didn't know whether this scientific explanation was really scientific, but this situation certainly couldn't be explained by this.
They hold the compass and it is impossible for them to deviate. Even if there is a deviation, it is unlikely to deviate so much.
Since science cannot explain it, there is only metaphysics.
Zhang Zhiwei opened his blind eyes and looked forward to observe the flow of Qi.
"Little Heavenly Master's eyes are so bright, what did you see?" Wu Gensheng said suddenly.
Zhang Zhiwei said: "I saw the flow of Qi in the air. It seemed disorderly, but secretly there were some rules. It vaguely formed a very large vortex, and we were on the edge of this vortex. This must be a Qi game. , when we came here, shopkeeper Liu once said that the imperial mausoleum is surrounded by a strong Qi bureau, and if nothing unexpected happens, we will be on the edge of this qi bureau."
"Is this a Qi game?" Lu Jin's eyes lit up: "Isn't that Senior Brother Zhang's specialty? Senior Brother Zhang's power is invincible, go ahead and fuck it, one shot will penetrate its mother!"
"Seriously, do you want Senior Brother Zhang to fuck it or fuck its mother?" Lu Ci said teasingly.
Zhang Zhiwei: "…………"
These two guys are off the hook a little bit and it's time for some banging.
Zhang Zhiwei bent his fingers and popped out two small golden beans, which made the two people's foreheads swell and run away with their heads in their hands.
Seeing this scene, everyone laughed.
After laughing for a while, Wugensheng said with great interest:
"Just now Lu Jin said that Qi Bureau is the specialty of the Little Heavenly Master. Does the Little Heavenly Master have a lot of research on Qi Bureau?"
Zhang Zhiwei gestured with his index finger and thumb: "Just a little bit!"
"A little bit?" Wu Gensheng expressed disbelief, "Can a little bit penetrate Qi Bureau?"
"It's just a violent break. It's nothing special. Moreover, this Qi game is huge. It's hard to say whether my method will work or not. You'll have to go in and take a look first to find out!"
Zhang Zhiwei looked at the flow of Qi and said: "From now on, I will go in front. You should keep up with my pace and don't fall behind. If anyone accidentally falls behind, just stay where you are, don't wander around, and wait for me to come." try to find!"
"Then what will happen if you say you've fallen behind and still wander around?" Lu Jin was rebellious.
"It's hard to say what will happen," Zhang Zhiwei glanced at him and said angrily, "But I'm sure he will be struck by lightning!"
Lu Jin was stunned for a moment and then realized: "Senior Brother Zhang means that the triggering of this Qi Bureau is related to Thunder?"
Lu Ci also said: "If you get struck by lightning if you go the wrong way, then this Qi game will undoubtedly be very scary!"
"Haha, you may have misunderstood. What Little Heavenly Master means is not that this Qi Bureau has anything to do with thunder!" Wu Gensheng said with a smile: "But if you get lost and run around, he will strike you with thunder! "
Lu Jin: “…………”
Lu Ci: "......"
"Are you the roundworm in my stomach?" Zhang Zhiwei gave Wu Gensheng a thumbs up, that's what he meant.
"Who told me that I and the Little Heavenly Master would hit it off like old friends," Wu Gensheng said with a smile, "This is called a bosom friend!"
Lu Jin touched the red mark on his forehead, feeling a little scared, and secretly made up his mind to follow Senior Brother Zhang's footsteps to avoid being struck by lightning.
Lu Ci also had the same idea. Although he really wanted to see Zhang Zhiwei's thunder skills, what he wanted was to be taught during exams and guidance, not simply to be tortured.
"Is this still the tough guy Lu Ci?" Guan Shihua sighed, "Senior Brother Zhang is so majestic!"
"Of course, Shi Hua'er, let me tell you what happened on the road. Lu Jin got a gourd on his head when he was doing something before..."
In order to win Guan Shihua's heart, Wang Ai decided to stab the two of them in the back.
As a result, before he could say the words of backstabbing, two arms, one on the left and one on the right, wrapped around his neck, and two fists, one on the left and one on the right, pressed against his temples.
"There is no humanity in people of the opposite sex, right?"
"You value sex over friends, right?"
The two people who had just been at each other's throats did not need to discuss at all. They reached a united front with just one glance. Before Wang Ai could beg for mercy, Wang Ai was punched hard in the temple, causing Wang Ai to scream repeatedly.
Guan Shihua stood aside and laughed.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
In the end, the farce ended with three big bags popping up on the heads of the three people.
Zhang Zhiwei waved his hand: "Sorry, I'm not in the mood to make trouble with you today. Let's go. It's time to go into the mountains."
"By the way, Senior Brother Zhang, I have an idea. In the winter here, the sled is actually the most convenient tool. We can make a sled and use the talisman to pull it. Everyone is on the sled, so we don't have to worry about walking. Lost it!" Guan Shihua reminded.
"You can have this!" Zhang Zhiwei nodded, thinking that this was a good idea. Qi Bureau is not a trivial matter, so it would be better to be more prudent.
"Then let's make one using local materials now!" Guan Shihua said.
"Why bother?"
Zhang Zhiwei stretched out his hand, and golden light transformed into energy and spread out from his fingertips.
As his fingers moved, golden light quickly sketched in the air.
In a few breaths, the lines of golden light gradually formed a sleigh.
"As expected of Senior Brother Zhang, he has such strong control ability, and his ability to transform into form with Qi is simply amazing!" Guan Shihua exclaimed in amazement.
This was the first time she had seen Zhang Zhiwei show this skill. Before, she only knew that Zhang Zhiwei was strong in maintenance and slapped people every time. She did not expect that he would not give in to details when it came to controlling details.
Others are not surprised.
I have seen the upsetting scenes, what does this mean? Don’t do six basic things.
"Get in the car and let's go!"
Zhang Zhiwei gave an order, and everyone jumped on the sled. With a thought, the fu horses ran wildly, dragging the sled into the Qi Bureau.
…………
…………
at the same time.
In a valley deep in Changbai Mountain.
The three sects of Fulu, the three temples of Putuo, and the four major families...people from various sects gathered here to discuss countermeasures.
In the crowd, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character and a serious look on his face, wearing a black robe, looked at the six lines of money in his hand and said:
"We have been stuck here for a long time. The architectural layout of this imperial mausoleum is a bit strange. Is it really the masterpiece of Fan Wencheng, the descendant of Fan Zhongyan?"
This person is the master of the Shuzi Sect, Hu Tu, one of the famous figures in the alien world. Not only is he superb in the six-line money technique, he is also upright and selfless. Therefore, people in the world respect him. A Hutu master.
It is worth mentioning that it was he who started the Jiashen Rebellion.
At that time, the heads of various sects began to gather together to discuss countermeasures after learning that their disciples were sworn sworn brothers with the heads of all the demons.
The initial idea of the leaders of each faction was to take them back to their families, close the door and deal with them themselves, so that major issues would be reduced to trivial matters.
But Master Hu Tu was an exception. He could not tolerate sand in his eyes, so he directly brought the body of Hu Haiwang, one of the thirty-six thieves, to the venue.
Everyone fell silent when they saw the body.
Because Hu Haiwang is the son of Master Hu Tu.
He actually took the lead in executing his own son.
At this point, the Jiashen Rebellion officially began.
In order to prevent the entire anti-Japanese alien alliance from being destroyed, Hu Tu could personally execute his son. With the Liaodong incident, he naturally had no reason not to come.
Standing next to Master Hu Tu was the initiator of this operation, the head of the Gao family among the four major families.
The head of the Gao family is wearing a mandarin jacket, has a short haircut, is tall and burly, has a handsome face with a beard, and his eyes are as bright as candlelight.
The head of the Gao family frowned and said: "Logically speaking, this is indeed Fan Wencheng's handiwork. This person's name is Xian Dou and his name is Hui Yue. He assisted four kings."
"Needless to say, his abilities are not to be overstated. He is said to be the founder of the Qing Dynasty, Liu Bowen. His magic skills are still quite superb!"
"The reason why he is not famous is mainly because the Tatars cannot tolerate the Han people. Even though he had such great achievements, he was classified as an insulting second minister by Kangxi after his death."
"However, the Tatars can underestimate him, but we cannot underestimate him. How to solve the trap set by this person? Master Hu Tu, do you have any means to break it?"
Master Hu Tu pondered for a moment and said: "After these days of testing, I still figured out some details. This imperial mausoleum is located in the southeast of Changbai Mountain, pressing on the source of the Songhua River, Tumen River, and Yalu River. It is high on all sides and in the middle. Low, as the saying goes, Jilong absorbs water and brings about all things, this is the famous Feng Shui situation, the place where dragons thrive, but..."
"This place was originally a Qi game to suppress Feng Shui dragon veins. It should not have such a strange ability. Later, several kings of the Manchu Qing Dynasty rebuilt this place. Several more Qi games were added to this Qi game. Patriarch Gao, look in that direction!"
Master Hutu pointed to the distance, where several peaks stood like flags.
"These peaks are not naturally formed. They should be made like this by man. From our current direction, we can only see part of them. If my guess is correct, there should be eight such peaks. The name of Qiju is, Eight Banners Gonglong!"
"If you want to break the Qi situation here and enter the imperial mausoleum, these eight peaks are the key!" Master Hu Tu said.
"You fucking bastards, let's go down the mountain and get some batches of detonators and blow up these damn mountains!" A Northeastern man said angrily.
"That's right, how can we let the Japanese pirates show off their power in our place?"
"These mountain peaks are not easy to explode. They are not small in themselves, and they are also guarded by Qi Bureau. They are difficult to deal with!"
"I think Master Hu Tu must have a way to deal with it."
Everyone was talking about it, and a young voice intervened.
"Whether it is the Zhenlong Feng Shui Bureau or the Eight Banners Gonglong, it is not critical. There is also a Feng Shui Qi Bureau hidden in the dark. This should be the handiwork of the Japanese pirates' grand palace minister. It is the most critical. !”
The person who spoke was actually an ordinary-looking little Taoist priest with small eyes, messy hair, shabby clothes, and a chin that was a bit protruding.
"Sheng Zhou, Little Monkey Zhou, seniors, do you have the right to speak?"
In the crowd, a middle-aged Taoist priest yelled angrily.
