Mu Yao and Shu Guan continued walking up the cliff one after the other.
Shu Guan was still a little shocked.
That divination technique is really miraculous.
It seems like a trivial matter, but when looking at things, we should not just look at the phenomenon but at the essence, right? What is the essence of this matter?
It’s the Fifth Senior Brother who can foresee the future through divination!
Being able to foresee the future, whether it is a big or small event, is an absolutely incredible skill.
I wonder if there is a gambling industry in this world... Then Shu Guan's thinking began to diverge.
As if he guessed what Shu Guan was thinking, Mu Yao looked back and smiled at him:
"Junior Brother Shu, the way of divination is not that simple. There are many limitations in it. Not everything can be calculated. In addition, when you really start practicing, you will know that everyone has different talents and talents. Taoist techniques are also different."
"Brother Xiwei was once very interested in the art of divination, but after practicing it for several years, he still couldn't get into it and had to reluctantly give up."
"Currently, among us, the fifth junior brother is the only one who has achieved some success in the art of divination. Not even the master can do it."
Shu Guan listened carefully. Fortunately, the person accompanying him this time was Mu Yao, so he told him so many things.
According to Mu Yao's words just now, this practice is not what he thought before. As long as you become a practitioner, you can learn some things like making wind and rain, turning stones into gold, scattering beans to make soldiers, holding the shackles and asking divination.
But now it seems that one can only be proficient in one or two kinds. This is somewhat similar to the classification of majors in universities in the previous life. Geniuses in Niu* can only achieve real achievements in certain subjects in the end.
Mu Yao stopped in front of a house next to the mountain road.
Along the way, Shuguan had already passed by several houses, buildings or pavilions, all built with bamboo and wood, giving them an antique look.
But the house in front of Mu Yao now has a completely different architectural style from the houses he had seen along the way, and it is also incompatible with the fairyland-like dreamlike environment behind the door.
This was a boxy house, like a big box, without any extra decoration. As for the building materials of this house, Shu Guan looked at the wall carefully, and then a strange idea came to his mind.
...could it be cement?
Shu Guan felt that he should not be wrong.
But seeing a square concrete house in a place like Shanji Temple made him afraid to be sure of his judgment.
There were no windows in this house, only a large black iron door. Mu Yao stood in front of the large iron door, banged the door with his hand, and asked in a loud voice:
"Fourth Junior Brother, is it convenient to come in now?"
For some reason, Shu Guan always felt that there was a slight hint of fear on Mu Yao's face when he asked this question.
Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the well rope for ten years.
After waiting for about two or three minutes, the big iron door was opened directly.
The person behind the door, after opening the door, turned around and walked back into the house.
Shu Guan only saw an extremely burly figure.
Mu Yao originally seemed to want to stand at the door and introduce him, but now he had to walk in.
So Shu Guan followed suit and walked in.
After entering the door, the surprised look on Shu Guan's face was a bit more intense than before.
Compared to seeing a cement house full of modern civilization and simple style in a place that looks like a legendary ancient wonderland, what is more unexpected?
Maybe it's because after you enter the house, you see the house full of various firearms.
Behind the iron door is a large and spacious room with many shelves on the surrounding walls, and the shelves are filled with various firearms.
Pistols, rifles, submachine guns, machine guns... all types of firearms Shu Guan knew could be seen on those shelves.
Even just for pistols, there are dozens of models, including revolvers, semi-automatic pistols, automatic pistols, etc.
At this moment, Shu Guan thought he had walked into an arsenal.
Of course, there are not only guns in this house, but also many strange things.
Strange refers to an environment like Shanjingguan.
For example, there is a bicycle placed in the corner, an electric fan on the roof blowing the wind, a telephone placed on a certain table, and a gramophone playing music, with a vinyl record spinning slowly on the gramophone.
"...the south wind brings coolness, and the nightingale sings softly...tuberose..."
The melodious singing in the gramophone made Guan wonder if he had suddenly traveled through time again.
And he also discovered a strange thing, that is, there were no wires in the electric fan, telephone, or gramophone.
So how does the fan turn? And how can a gramophone sing?
At this time, Mu Yao patted his shoulder, pointed at the man beside a long stone table and said:
"This one is your fourth senior brother, Qiu Yang."
Shu Guan turned around and saw that it was a very tall and burly man, at least about two meters tall, and very strong. He was wearing a brown Taoist robe that was one size larger than ordinary, but it was still stretched tightly. Yes, his messy hair hung down, covering most of his face, making it difficult to see his appearance clearly.
On the long slate table in front of him, there were many bullets, the same types of bullets as the firearms on the shelf.
In addition, there were some messy things like talismans. For a moment, Shu Guan really didn't know how to describe them.
Shu Guan even saw something that looked very familiar to him, which was a white ice crystal-like ball. Shu Guan remembered that this thing seemed to be the stalactite liquid that Li Zhixia brought back from the cave in Taoyuan Village, but now it appeared in the cave. On this long table, I put them together with the bullets.
"Fourth Junior Brother, this is the new Seventh Junior Brother."
Mu Yao raised his voice and said something to the tall and muscular brown-robed Taoist priest.
"Well……"
The brown-robed Taoist priest named Qiu Yang made an incomprehensible hum from his mouth, but still did not raise his head. In his hand, he held a cartridge case with the warhead removed. The cartridge case was engraved with extremely complicated lines. That Qiu Yang Yang looked at the bullet casing like a parent looking at their child with the tenderest eyes.
"Hello, Seventh Junior Brother... No, no, so much fire spiritual power should not be used here. The proportion is wrong. Wood makes fire. Well, try adding more wood spiritual power to increase the power of the explosion. By the way, Second Senior Brother, what are you doing? When you have time, come and do me a little favor."
The sturdy Taoist priest with unruly hair suddenly raised his head and stared at Mu Yao with great excitement.
Shu Guan still couldn't see clearly the face hidden by the messy hair. He could only see an extremely large nose protruding from the messy hair.
When Mu Yao heard this, his face turned slightly pale and he forced a smile and said:
"Brother, I have something to do these days... Just wait for a few days."
As he spoke, he pulled Shu Guan out of the cement box room and walked quickly while smiling bitterly:
"Forget it, when the fourth junior brother is practicing Taoism, even if the master comes, he will ignore it. I will let you get to know each other better next time!"
monasticism?
Are you sure that the fourth senior brother holding the bullet casing just now... is practicing Taoism?
Mu Yao looked at Shu Guan who looked disbelieving, stopped his smile, and explained seriously:
"Fourth Junior Brother is indeed cultivating the Tao, but the Tao he cultivates is a little different from ours."
"Fourth Junior Brother used to be a scholar. Well, he was not the kind of scholar who studied for merit and fame in Dahua before. He was a scholar who had studied abroad in the Western Continent. He seemed to have received several doctorate degrees. Later, after returning to Dahua, he worked in Jingcheng I was a professor at a university, and when I was visiting Guishan, I met the master by chance. Somehow, the master brought him into Shanxi Guan and accepted him as his disciple."
"Fourth Junior Brother has been practicing the art of weapon refining since he started, and he has always believed that Taoism and technology can be integrated into one."
Shu Guan opened his mouth and listened.
Integrating Taoism and technology?
The structure of this fourth senior brother... is huge!
"So, has Senior Brother Qiu Yang succeeded now?"
A strange look suddenly appeared on Mu Yao's face again, and he said softly.
"Those things that Fourth Junior Brother comes from his training are sometimes very effective."
Sometimes it works?
Then it just doesn't work sometimes.
Shu Guan thought about the bullet casing in Qiu Yang's hand. He originally wanted to ask what would happen if it didn't work, but he saw Mu Yao taking a step forward and looking down the cliff.
"Well, Senior Brother is done."
Then he turned back to Shu Guan and said with a smile:
"Okay, let me finally take you to meet my senior brother!"
