"For ordinary people, in order not to cause panic, Tiance Fu strictly controls the news about some practices and other forces. People who are not practitioners will generally not know about it."
With the help of Zhang Kun's power, a major disaster in Baling was solved. As the only surviving demon-subduing captain, Wu Zhenshan, who came from Tiance Fu, naturally made a great contribution.
Although it is unethical to think this way, it is the truth.
If Zuo Donglin, the sixth-level demon-slaying captain, is still alive, he will naturally lead the effort, and the two demon-suppressing captains will get some good results. A small amount of merit is considered good.
As for whether the county magistrate, county lieutenant, etc. can keep their current official positions without being charged, it depends on whether there are people behind them.
But aren't Zuo Donglin and Tang Luo both dead now?
Wu Zhenshan could freely arrange the official report of meritorious deeds, saying that Captain Zuo and Lieutenant Tang bravely took the lead and died together with the evil monk of Bodhi Courtyard... And he and the county captain Zhang Bailing, who was promoted from the front line, fought to the end and finally defeated the invasion. All the evil monks in Baling were killed, and Baling was restored to peace.
Protecting a county and killing the evil monk who was about to break through to the Vajra Dharmakaya, this great achievement directly pushed Wu Zhenshan to the official position of the sixth-level Demon Slayer Captain, and there was still some left.
Moreover, there will be many benefits for him in the days to come.
This is qualifications.
Needless to say, when I return to Yuezhou Tiance Mansion to guard the Yamen, I will be given many treasures and techniques, and my future will be bright...
Feeling happy in his heart, Wu Zhenshan was happy to talk about it in detail when facing Zhang Kun, his lucky star and thigh, and directly pointed out some points that needed attention.
"...One Mansion and One Temple refers to the Dongting Dragon Palace Water Mansion and Heping Jiangxi Suburb Bodhi Courtyard. These two forces, especially the Dongting Dragon Palace force, are extremely powerful.
The Dragon Lord’s name is Ao Cheng, and it is said that he is the thirteenth son of the Dragon King Ao Qin of the South China Sea. This news has not been verified, and I don’t know whether it is true or not. However, when the Dragon Lord of Dongting first occupied the Shuifu, he was only a dragon, so it counts. Don't be too powerful.
But later, this dragon underwent a second bloodline transformation and turned into the true form of a divine dragon. Its cultivation level reached the third realm of Yuanshen. Under its command were two Yuanshen-level aquatic demons. They had commanders from all directions and hundreds of thousands of fish, shrimps, crabs, and turtles. The other naval forces are not weak in combat, and they are powerful in Dongting 800 miles away. No one dares to invade the mountains and ridges of the towns and cities along the river. In this way, his life experience will be somewhat hidden..."
At this point, Wu Zhenshan said no more.
Not to mention the secrets of the current battle in Dongting Water Mansion. I don’t know if it’s because he doesn’t know it yet, or he doesn’t dare to reveal some confidential information about Tiance Mansion.
Zhang Kun did not ask in detail, knowing that the fight for the master of the Dongting Water Palace was related to the 800-mile Dongting, and its interests were not even smaller than the vast territory of Yuezhou. Some things were indeed not easy to talk about. Mouth. So, he thoughtfully changed the subject and asked:
"Dongting Water Palace knows about it, but what about the One Temple and Three Mountains?"
Wu Zhenshan looked slightly stern and sighed: "If we say that although the Dongting Water Mansion is strong, it has its own rules for doing things, it will not easily disturb the majesty of the court, and it manages the navy under its command very well... Then, this temple and Three mountains, it’s hard to describe them in one word.”
"The monks of Huanxi's lineage in Bodhi Courtyard all look solemn and solemn, but in fact, they are the most indifferent." His face turned slightly red and he shouted angrily: "Brother Zhang, you only need to think about it to understand this. The power of the sect is dedicated to harming good families and doing happy things. Wherever the power touches, it is simply fishy and disgusting. The specific method can be seen by observing the actions of monk Guangming. This still has not completely captured Baling. If To occupy this county and establish a branch temple would be simply miserable and extremely dark..."
Zhang Kun understood it as soon as he heard it.
This lineage of joy, all the monks in the temple, practice the method of unity, joy and nourishment, which is very dirty and disliked by others.
Don't talk about others.
Even Zhang Kun was very angry when he heard that there was still a sect that acted like this. He wished he could go to Bodhi Temple and eradicate all the evil monks.
"Although the practices of the Huanxi lineage are evil, this temple is really an orthodox Buddhist lineage. It can be regarded as the inheritance of the true Dharma. Its strength is not weak at all. The abbot of the temple, Zen Master Guangfa, is a senior monk in the second realm of Vajra Dharmakaya. Buddhism is so powerful that ordinary people are no match for it.
The most outrageous thing is that this guy is still in the upper realm of Buddhism and has the backing of the Buddha. No matter how ridiculous his actions are, there are no gods, Buddhas or bodhisattvas to deal with them. He just turns a blind eye and watches them do all their evil deeds. …”
This is a bit of a trap.
Really don’t look at the monk’s face but look at the Buddha’s face.
There is a real Buddha living in the spiritual mountain...how can you not suffer retribution if you beat their disciples and descendants?
If a real person from the lower realm of the same level takes action, that's fine. Everyone will fight for victory, and there will be no complaints between life and death.
But if someone bullies a small one, wants a real immortal to come to earth, and secretly takes action, the Buddha Master on that person's Lingshan Mountain will not be able to take revenge.
Zhang Kun probably knew who the Buddha Patriarch of the Bodhi Courtyard was.
If it is really the Huanxi Buddha, it can be traced back to a certain person who abandoned Taoism and became a Buddha in ancient times... With such a person as his backer, it is no wonder that the Huanxi lineage does things unscrupulously, treating dirty and dirty activities as It was an honest and upright undertaking, and no one stood in the way.
This is easy to understand.
There are always people in the court who are good at becoming officials.
The background thing is really harmful.
Looking at the entire story of Journey to the West, whenever there are demons and ghosts with a background, whether they are the pet beasts of gods or the mounts of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, when they come down to the mortal world, they will eat people at will, destroy cities and countries at will, pat their butts and take them back afterwards, what? Neither is sin.
At most, those gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can say, my boy is disobedient, take him back and discipline him well.
that is it.
As for the thousands of innocent souls who were killed and the people who suffered so much, has anyone ever taken a second look?
The levels in this world are so clear. If you are not on the same level, you are not even qualified to be an individual, you are just an ant.
After saying "one mansion and one temple", Wu Zhenshan looked more cheerful and said: "The three mountains are Panshe Ridge, Huangquan Peak, and Zizhu Forest. Plus the five cities, they are the five counties of Yuezhou and Baokuo Prefecture." Including soldiers and horses...not counting the casual cultivator forces, these forces are the most powerful."
The demon snake in Panshe Ridge is very powerful. The demon king Qingyun is famous far and wide. He has great ambitions. He has many demons under his command. He has quite a few demons in the realm of Yuanshen to help him. Now he is plotting against the Water Mansion, and he basically has nothing to do with us. Be more social, let’s not talk too much for now.
Huangquan Peak has gathered ten ghost generals and a hundred thousand Yin soldiers. The two ghost commanders Qiu Luo and Liancheng are even more bloodthirsty and cruel. They often harass the place and contain Yuezhou's soldiers and horses. They cannot be divided and are extremely difficult to deal with.
The last mountain, Zizhu Mountain, Zizhu Forest, can be regarded as an ally. Fortunately, all the real cultivators in this mountain hate evil as much as hatred, have good intentions and good deeds, and have good relations with the Yuezhou government.
Otherwise, with the number of these demons, ghosts, evil cultivators and monks, it would be really difficult for the imperial court to compete with the power in Yuezhou, and it would be difficult to maintain peace for the people. "
Just hearing Wu Zhenshan say it so casually, Zhang Kun could hear the heaviness in it.
There are monsters, ghosts, monsters, monks and demons, and the Water Mansion Longting. The Tang Dynasty did not collapse, and it was considered capable.
However, no matter which story it is in, Datang has a great reputation and its foundation is very powerful.
If a very critical situation arises in each state or government, the imperial court will definitely send powerful people to rescue the situation, but there is no need to worry about the Li family.
After carefully understanding the forces of cultivators around him, Zhang Kun felt confident.
I looked at the Dragon Qi value on my property panel and got some ideas.
"Wu Xiaowei, I don't know what the regulations are in Baling and Tiance Mansion. Now County Magistrate Wen is going against the grain and leading the wolf into the house. We must not let it go. After Monk Guangming is executed, what will happen next..."
"Haha, Brother Zhang turned the tide and wiped out the evil atmosphere in Baling. Although the aftermath of this matter has been dealt with, there is no need to ask my little brother."
Wu Zhenshan's eyebrows were raised, and as soon as he heard Zhang Kun's question, he knew what he was thinking.
He was also happy to be a favor, and immediately said: "Brother Zhang is now a county captain, and he is only an eighth-grade military attache. Compared with your tyrannical force, it is really a bit unworthy. After I return to Yuezhou, I will definitely Enter Tiance Mansion and find a position as a school captain for Brother Zhang. Not to mention the sixth-level demon-killing school captain and the seventh-level demon subduing school captain, it will be easy..."
Before Zhang Kun showed joy on his face, Wu Zhenshan was ready to fight to the end to show his sincere friendship.
"Before the captain of Tiance Mansion arrives, Brother Zhang can take charge of Baling's civil and military officials and govern a county in this capacity... As for the guilty official Wen Zhongguang, you can do whatever you want."
Wu Zhenshan's calm voice and his casual writing decided Wen Zhongguang's fate.
It can also be seen from this that although the demon-subduing captain is not very high-ranking, he is obviously a decisive and decisive figure, and he also looks down upon indifferent civil servants like Wen Zhongguang.
Now that I have the opportunity, there is no reason to be merciful.
Not to mention interceding.
"If this is the case, will there be any future troubles?"
Zhang Kun is still a little confused about the officialdom of this dynasty, and his past knowledge is not very useful.
Because there is an additional institution called Tiance Mansion here, which can also control the civil and military officials of a city during wartime. When you are an official, you not only have to deal with government affairs and appease the people, but you also have to face the comings and goings of people in the world, and even To defend against attacks from demons and evil cultivators, the situation is too complicated, and I don’t know how the other city leaders operate.
"As long as we can keep the stability of the city, we can do things cheaply."
Wu Zhenshan was very experienced. He said a few words with a playful expression, and did not bother to enjoy the fruits of victory with Zhang Kun. He hurriedly rode through the night and headed towards Yuezhou.
He must have been eager to take credit for his achievements. When he saw him again, he must be Captain Wu, a sixth-grade demon slayer.
Zhang Kun watched Wu Zhenshan's back go away, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he called directly to the deputy commander of the city guard Zhong Tieyan, who lived up to his name, with a body that was as solid and thick as a mountain rock.
When the Five Monks of Guangming attacked earlier, he led his troops to stop him. He was rushed by the formation, and the sound of Sanskrit hit his brain. He was confused on the spot. With his late-stage innate strength, he couldn't even resist. He stood there It's like a stone there.
Logically speaking, this kind of strength is indeed useless. If it really encounters a master, it will be completely vulnerable.
But Zhang Kun doesn't need the other party to follow him to face masters and fight life and death.
What he valued was Zhong Tieyan's ability to train troops and run the army.
It doesn't matter if the strength is not too strong, as long as he is taller among the dwarfs and can be manipulated easily.
You know, among the police officers, except for the dozen or so top-notch ones, including the helmsmen and incense masters of the White Dragon Society, most of them, including Wei Lian and others who had received special training from him, had not even broken through their innate abilities.
After all, warriors who are above the marrow refining realm are not cabbages.
In comparison, Zhong Tieyan's strength is very good.
"At the end of the day, I will pay my respects to the county captain."
Seeing Zhang Kun, Zhong Tieyan was a little frightened. His dark face was red, and he seemed to be ashamed and helpless.
This is lamenting one's own incompetence.
Face the enemy and hit the door.
As a result, it was of no use. Together with the carefully trained city guards under his command, they were all used as decorations.
As a result, Chen Zian was cut in half, the county captain's mansion was destroyed, and the casualties were extremely heavy.
He, the lieutenant general, is really to blame.
At the same time, he was ashamed. Zhong Tieyan, who was born in an ordinary military household and especially admired the strong, was also very grateful to Zhang Kun. Not only was he grateful for saving his life, but he was also grateful to Zhang Kun for being a scholar and later joining the police force. I admire the rising young master very much.
When he woke up, he saw Zhang Kun casually killing people, swiping his knife, sealing the space, and turning the demon monk into ashes.
I was so shocked that I couldn't move my brain.
'Following such a master, I have come to this world in vain. If I really learn a little bit from him, I won't be able to break through without any breakthrough. I have been learning like this for half my life...'
On weekdays, he works loyally and doesn't like to talk too much, but it doesn't mean that Zhong Tieyan doesn't have superfluous ideas.
His original boss, County Captain Chen Zian, was not very talented and focused entirely on making money. He didn't say it in his mouth, but he actually didn't think highly of him in his heart.
I don't have the conditions and resources that the other party has. I can get a rudimentary training method from an ordinary military household. It is not easy to cultivate to this point...
A few days ago, he led the city guards and watched some of the policemen defect to Zhang Bailing. At the same time, many masters in the world also joined the Zhang family. Then, in a short period of time, their strength suddenly increased. Fei Mengjin.
Not only did their cultivation improve rapidly, but their martial arts skills also improved day by day. Several people, who were originally very inconspicuous, easily surpassed me.
Although he has not competed with Wei Lian and others, as long as he watches the Qi movement, Zhong Tieyan, who has spent twelve years on the battlefield, naturally has his own judgment. The real strength of these people is actually stronger than himself.
This is the benefit of following the right person.
He was envious, but he didn't dare to think too much...
I originally thought that I was in trouble, but I didn't expect that hope was actually just around the corner.
However, this timing is not very good.
It happens to be the time when your powerless side is revealed in front of the other party.
"You are very good. Even if you encounter a strong enemy that cannot be resisted and your men suffer heavy casualties, you can still stabilize the morale of the army."
Zhang Kun looked at Zhong Tieyan's foundation and felt somewhat satisfied.
In fact, this man is not too old, he is just in his early thirties, and his cultivation has reached the level of blood exchange and qi condensation, and he is not weaker than Chen Zian.
However, this person seems to be practicing outer sect skills. His hands and feet are thickened and his body is full of hidden injuries. He must have not been taught by a famous teacher and has not received advanced training techniques.
If the hidden wounds in his body are cured, and the perfect six-alloy body skills are taught to him, and with some resources, he may be able to cultivate to the Danjin stage within a short period of time, and he can compete with the evil-refining monks.
Of course, if you want to reach the Gangqi realm, the road is very long.
Let's wait and see. If it is used effectively, Zhang Kun can't take the trouble to cultivate it in the future.
Seeing Zhong Tieyan bow to the end and not get up for a long time, Zhang Kun chuckled and said: "Well, I heard that you are very good at training soldiers and are loyal and sincere. From now on, if you do your job well, I will definitely not treat you exclusively here."
As he spoke, with a snap of his fingers, nine needle-shaped qi energy rushed into various key points in Zhong Tieyan's body.
The energy vibrates and buzzes, turning into vitality, infiltrating Zhong Tieyan's body, making up for hidden wounds, and opening up acupoints...
Zhang Kun now has a perfect Gang Qi realm, and has an extremely detailed understanding of the distribution of acupuncture points in the body and the transformation of virtual and actual particles. In addition, he has the second level of Jiuxuan Mind Eyes. , even medication is not needed.
Just by doing it casually, Zhong Tieyan's injuries were 99% healed.
Some of the old wounds accumulated during the crazy training and life-and-death fights in the early years disappeared in the blink of an eye under the impact of the nine qi energies.
Zhong Tieyan's body shook, then again, three times...
The whole body was shaking like chaff.
After the time of burning incense, I just feel that my body is full of vitality, my mood is extremely happy, my muscles, tendons, bones and blood are all full of infinite vitality. While my strength is greatly increased, my qi is surging, and my strength quietly crosses the bottleneck.
No matter how hard you practice in the past, you can’t pass the level.
As the fresh blood generated deep in the bone marrow rushed past, an impulse surged in his heart. He was so blessed that he turned his palm into a knife and gently swung it to his side.
The invisible and transparent palm knife slashed out with a roar.
There was a knife mark half a foot deep on the ground.
"This is……"
"Condensing Qi and slashing the sky is an innate achievement."
Zhong Tieyan's eyes were red, and he was so excited that he couldn't control himself while standing there.
He originally thought that it would be difficult for him to reach this level in his life.
Unexpectedly, when I met my new boss today, with just a wave of my hand, I had already accomplished something...
He can even feel that his body's potential has increased a lot, and it is not impossible to make progress again and go further in the future.
"My lord's kindness will be unforgettable by my subordinates. I will definitely follow you to the death and repay you with my life."
Zhong Tieyan kowtowed and knelt on the ground. This time it was not about business, but he was sincerely convinced.
The other party's methods were like those of a god. He cured his injuries with just a few gestures and gave him such a great benefit. It was undoubtedly a gift of reincarnation. This was a huge favor.
"Do your best, everything will be as per precedent, and safety is the priority."
Zhang Kun chuckled and patted Zhong Tieyan on the shoulder.
I also felt a little satisfied.
He felt that his harvest of dragon energy points would immediately usher in a big increase.
The only thing missing from the people's support is just an order and a show.
"County Magistrate Wen, since you are responsible for this disaster, I will lend you your head to appease the people."
"If my guess is correct, the big shots in Tiance Mansion are not fools. There will definitely be some movement at this time. Otherwise, if Bodhi Court slaps you in the face so crazily and doesn't fight back, wouldn't Zuo Donglin and others die in vain? Well, Tiance Mansion doesn’t look good in terms of appearance either.”
"During this period, you still have to be careful. At Coiling Snake Ridge and Bodhi Courtyard, my hatred is stable enough. I must be prepared for the other party to jump over the wall..."
After much thought.
Zhang Kun felt a sense of urgency again, thinking that it was most important to earn more dragon energy points and improve his cultivation.
