Chapter 117 Black and Red Two Evils
Lin Shan looked at the enthusiastic village chiefs and squires outside, and then looked at the old magic stick Old Man Zhong beside him. For the first time, he realized that he had picked up a treasure. This old boy was really a talent.
"Are you sure your method of enchantment will work? What I want is pious worship."
Old Man Zhong turned around, his face changed so quickly that it was dizzying to see. He immediately nodded, bowed and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, sir. The purpose of fascination is to lower their alertness and constantly instill ideas into them. This is also the best way to achieve quick results."
"If we come here a few more times in the future, we will be able to make them believe in our religion without a trace of influence."
Lin Shan nodded and looked around at his subordinates.
"Do you think everything is fine?"
Everyone: "It's clear."
"Have you learned it?"
Everyone: "Yes."
"Why don't you get out and work!"
At this time, Lin Shan's capitalist nature was exposed. Of course, if there was a job, the younger brother would do it.
As long as you can't do it to death, do it to death! Isn’t beating workers just for exploitation?
As for me? If you don't work hard, how can this messenger get the contribution points to exchange for better magic weapons? Live a better life?
The hundreds of casual cultivators in the courtyard were obedient and hurriedly escaped one by one, for fear that the demon sect envoy in front of them would be angry.
……
After resting for half an hour, Lin Shan walked out and found that the entire village was filled with the sound of reciting and praying. It was obvious that these monks were working hard to preach. Not to mention, everyone is very knowledgeable!
"Dear Black Lotus Buddha, you are the light of the world!"
"Well, that big Buddha uh. That uh."
"What the hell?"
"My Lord, oh no, my Buddha!"
……
Looking at the messy broadcast, Lin Shan nodded with satisfaction. After all, everything had just begun.
Once these monks have done this kind of thing a lot, practice will naturally make them perfect.
Don't be too harsh on your subordinates, and squeeze them quietly at critical moments without them noticing.
While Lin Shan was thinking about how to get his younger brother to work for him, he flew to the only place on the island with a miniature spiritual eye, which was a small hill outside the village.
There happens to be a cave here left by the predecessors. I cleaned it carefully, put down the trace restrictions and warning restrictions that I bought before, and started practicing hard.
……
After practicing so beautifully for ten days, Lin Shan came out of seclusion on a sunny day and planned to inspect the progress of his men.
Yujian flew over the fishing village and directly communicated with everyone with his spiritual consciousness.
“Come and meet in the mayor’s courtyard!”
After a while, all the casual cultivators gathered together and began to report on the progress of their missionary work one by one.
"I have sent out fifty Buddha statues in the past few days."
"I issued a total of eighty statues."
"I sent a hundred statues."
……
After going around, Lin Shan found that the salesmanship of this group of people varied, but the most powerful one was Old Man Zhong.
This old man actually distributed all the hundreds of Buddha statues in the storage bag three days ago, so efficient!
"Yes, you will be the leader of all of them from now on."
"While I'm away, you take care of them for me."
Lin Shan likes this kind of capable talents the most, and delegates power directly and boldly.
Old Man Zhong knelt down in great joy: "Thank you, Mr. Envoy, for the promotion!"
Lin Shan looked around: "Do you understand everything?"
"I understand!"
No one dared to refute. After all, Old Man Zhong was the most powerful and his cultivation was in the late stage of Qi training. Everyone was convinced to let him temporarily manage them.
After some understanding, the tens of thousands of people in the fishing village on Ezo Island have been preached and brainwashed. Each of the ordinary fishermen has a black lotus Buddha statue, which can be regarded as the initial completion of the task.
As for how far their faith will be after a year, it is a subtle process, so just take your time.
Next, there are forty-nine other islands in the sea area with a radius of thousands of miles, and there are many mortals among them. Lin Shan is too lazy to go there himself. They were directly arranged to work in pairs, each bringing the new Buddha statues sent by the temporary headquarters of the church in the past few days, and they were managed by Old Man Zhong to preach.
As for how to cross the sea, Lin Shan doesn't need to worry about sending them one by one. After all, these people are all casual cultivators in the East China Sea. They each have small boats and other magical tools and talismans for sea navigation, but they can't fly as fast as in the sky.
In the past, before the Demonic Dao occupied the East China Sea, they all crossed the sea separately to look for opportunities. They were considered half-local snakes in this unfamiliar sea.
The East China Sea is an inland sea, and most of the powerful monsters are in the outer sea, so letting them go out to preach on their own is not a big problem.
After finishing the instructions, Lin Shan returned to the cave outside his village and began to clean up. He believed that Old Man Zhong could arrange these small things.
The facts were just as he expected. After about ten days of communication together, all the casual cultivators understood the missionary routines and were basically able to work independently. However, Old Man Zhong didn't know where he had done his homework in advance. He actually prepared a large amount of incense and soul-soothing pills in his storage bag, and started doing business among the monks.
These people had no choice but to hold their noses and buy it in order to preach. Then Mr. Zhong arranged for them to be arranged in pairs, and each took a boat across the sea to the designated island to preach.
……
After more than a month of calm, on the Ezo Island deep in the vast East China Sea, Lin Shan practiced hard while sipping the elixir from the sect.
There is no spiritual vein or spirit gathering array in the sect, but at least there is a miniature spiritual eye. Lin Shan also practiced extremely hard on the deserted island. He was only in his twenties, and there was great hope for him to reach the golden elixir stage in the future.
Once you reach the golden elixir stage, you will have a lifespan of 400 years. It is such a wonderful thing to watch yourself step by step towards immortality on the path of cultivation!
But soon his peaceful and beautiful life was broken, because the warning and restriction system outside the cave went off, and a transmission note kept flying up and down in the mysterious restriction, directly waking him up from the seclusion state.
Lin Shan frowned, and with a sweep of his consciousness, he found Old Man Zhong and two other younger brothers standing outside the cave, anxiously waiting for his reply.
He knew that if it wasn't a major incident, his group would not dare to disturb him.
After waving his hand to open the restriction, the three people at the door heard a message from their spiritual consciousness.
"Come in!"
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief and walked into Linshan's cave with their waists bowed.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Old Man Zhong swallowed, looked at the two casual cultivators next to him, and spoke hesitantly.
"Sir, the progress over the past month has been relatively smooth, but...
The two Taoist friends next to me were driven back by other monks while they were preaching on an island."
Lin Shan was stunned when he heard this. Does anyone dare to stop the Black Lotus Sect from preaching?
Who doesn’t know that now the East China Sea has become the back garden of the devil, who has eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?
The two casual cultivators next to him immediately knelt down and cried. They were afraid that the messenger would accuse them, so they quickly explained the whole story.
"The two of us were ordered to go to Red Shrimp Island to preach. During the mission, two foundation-building monks suddenly appeared!"
"They call themselves the Black and Red Evils, and they have occupied this island and are the owners of it."
"Just beat the two of us up and throw them out of the island."
Lin Shan's face darkened, with an unhappy look on his face.
"Didn't you tell those two people that you were non-staff members of the Black Lotus Sect performing official duties?"
The two younger brothers quickly shouted that they had reported their names, but the two foundation-building stages ignored them and kicked them out.
Lin Shan became suspicious now. Those who have practiced to the Foundation Establishment Stage these days cannot be a fool. If they heard that the Black Lotus Sect was doing something and still dared to obstruct it, there must be something fishy!
Is there some master living on the island? What's the big background behind it?
Old Man Zhong was very discerning, and he was obviously a bad guy. He immediately spread out the "Ezo Sea Area" map seamlessly and placed it in front of Lin Shan.
Lin Shan scanned the map and found "Red Shrimp Island" in the southwest corner of the sea area.
Old Man Zhong began to explain the information he had learned: "Red Shrimp Island has a radius of ten miles and ranks among the top ten in the Ezo Sea area. There is no spiritual vein on the island, but there is a monster named Red Shrimp that appears around this island."
"Red shrimps come in swarms, rising at sunset and returning to the sea at sunrise. They are probably all powerful in the early stage of Qi refining. The shrimp shells have a certain medicinal value. Occasionally, many casual cultivators from the East China Sea come to catch them to earn spiritual stones and sell them to the sea. The city subsidizes cultivation.”
"Five years ago, the Black and Red Evils occupied Red Shrimp Island, claiming to be the owners of the island, driving out all casual cultivators, and monopolizing the Red Shrimp industry"
After listening to this, Lin Shan had a general understanding of the situation. To put it bluntly, the two evil spirits, Red and Black, were two casual cultivators in the foundation-building period. They relied on their strength to dominate the industrial resources of Red Shrimp Island, which was understandable in the world of cultivation.
But the problem is that the Black Lotus just went there to teach mortals, and they were not trying to steal his island. They had no reason to chase people away, right?
Is there something hidden?
Lin Shan touched his chin and asked cautiously again.
"Has anything big happened in the nearby waters recently?"
When Old Man Zhong heard Lin Shan's inquiry, he immediately reported seriously the recent text messages sent from the teaching.
"In the five sea areas around us, there are emissaries from the church who are stationed one after another to preach."
"It is said that there are golden elixir stage monsters in the water bear sea area."
"In the Yellow Shark Sea area, it is said that the fugitive turtle turtle was found running around."
"The temporary headquarters has dispatched more than a dozen Jindan period guardians, who are chasing fugitives everywhere."
……
There were about a dozen bits and pieces of news, but Lin Shan didn't hear that any "heavy treasure was born" on Red Shrimp Island, and there weren't any powerful hermits hiding nearby.
On the other hand, the fugitive Kamei Zhenren who was being pursued fled to the sea next door, but it was none of his business, and naturally the guardians in the church had to worry about it.
After much deliberation, Lin Shan couldn't figure out why the two foundation-building periods on Red Shrimp Island were crazy and dared to drive away the envoys he sent out to preach. Could it be that these two people were not paying attention to recent world events and didn't know the reputation of the Black Lotus Sect?
After repeatedly confirming that there was no danger, Lin Shan immediately stood up.
Hitting his men was like slapping him in the face!
Preaching is his responsibility, so he cannot leave Red Shrimp Island alone. In addition, now that I am in the foundation building stage and possess many high-level magic weapons and "trump cards", there is no need to be too timid.
They are just two foundation-building casual cultivators, there is nothing to be afraid of!
He is now the envoy of the Demonic Sect, and how dare two casual cultivators be so arrogant!
Immediately, he ordered Old Man Zhong to summon a group of subordinates and planned to go directly to Red Shrimp Island to demand an explanation. Let these two foundation-building stages know whose territory is in the thousands of miles of sea nearby!
