Chapter 89 86: Invitation for worship (please order first)
This night was a night of chaos, a night of escape and pursuit.
When Hu Yungong died, Qiu Changfeng knew that he had no ability to stop Zhou Wu, so he directly issued an order to disperse and flee.
The disciples of the Yunya Sword Sect, along with the Jianghu people who had joined the Yunya Sword Sect's camp, were like exploding, fleeing in all directions.
As for Wen Xiang Guan, they were already well prepared. Each of the marrow masters and disciples chased after Mei Jiao Niang after giving the order.
Their target is not actually Hu Yungong, or rather, Hu Yungong is one of their targets.
Then there are the disciples brought by Hu Yungong, who are considered the elite of the Yunya Sword Sect. These must stay in the boundaries of Baisha City.
Only by accomplishing this can the purpose of Wen Xiang Guan Zhou Wu's trip be truly achieved.
Then, they used the entire Baisha City as the battlefield and played a game of escape and pursuit.
On the street, at the corner, in the courtyard, in the shadows... almost any place can become a battlefield!
At this time, the order that Chu Zhou had worked so hard to establish and maintain became a joke.
It's time to run for your life, since you have everything you need, why don't you care about the common people.
As for the patrol team sent by the government, the effect is somewhat limited, but it is also limited.
They have some advantages in numbers, but they dare not really intervene in the battle. All they can do is intimidate and provide rescue work wherever they pass.
If they accidentally encounter those powerful masters, such as a battle between martial arts practitioners, they may even be affected by the aftermath, making it difficult to escape.
This situation did not improve until Chu Zhou appeared.
The reason is also simple. He doesn't care who the opponent is and just crushes them with absolute force.
With punches and kicks, these people who struck wantonly were in a state of ecstasy. Only then did they react and consciously lead the battlefield away from the city.
But Chu Zhou was alone after all. Even if he drove away the martial arts practitioners, the people below were scattered in the city, and he was unable to do anything at all.
You can only turn around over and over again, take care of it when you encounter it, and hit it when you encounter it.
In this way, after a busy night of back and forth, it was not until dawn the next day that things got better.
Those who could escape had already escaped; those who could not escape were turned into corpses. Even so, Chu Zhou had no time to spare.
He led his four junior brothers to run around for rescue. Many people were trapped under collapsed houses and had to carry out rescue excavations.
At this point, no one can use it better than these powerful humanoid excavators.
After a lot of busy work, another day passed in a hurry.
But even so, there is still no time to relax. After all, there are those who are smart enough to choose to hide in the city, and there are also many people from the Wenxiangguan family who are chasing them.
For two days, and for the next two days, fighting broke out in the city from time to time, and when the fighting started, they ignored everything.
Moreover, they also know that there are experts in the city to maintain order, and when they fight, they try to shorten the time as much as possible. You come and I attack more than ten times, and if they can't tell the winner, life or death, they run away again.
It made Chu Zhou unable to do anything to them!
Baisha City is so big, and there are only a few masters in the government office, so there is nothing they can do.
Simply, two days later, Wen Xiangguan Zuo Dharma Protector Jiao Mei Niang left with a large army, which also meant that the chaos in Baisha City had finally come to an end.
Of course, news also came that the Yunya Sword Sect and Wenxiangguan had officially started a war.
Not only Anyue City, but also all the counties and cities under the jurisdiction of Tianquan County were almost on two sides, and they all started fighting.
In other words, the end of chaos in a city heralds the arrival of greater chaos.
And this, at its root, is just a struggle between two martial arts sects, but this is the normal state of this world.
It is worth mentioning that before Wenxiangguanzuo protector Meijiao left, she came to the government office with drums and gongs, found Chu Zhou, and solemnly handed over the invitation.
Wenxiangguan's official invitation was made of gold foil as the paper, red silk as the surface, and embellished with thin gold threads. Finally, Mei Jiao Niang personally presented it.
The courtesy is beyond imagination!
Anyway, the county magistrates, county lieutenants, county magistrates, chief registrars, police officers, government officials, and even the Jianghu people including Wenxiangguan were all dumbfounded.
Many people even showed expressions of envy and hatred.
Only Chu Zhou felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, like a gleam on his back, like a lump in his throat, so he could only accept the post with a stiff expression.
……
Night,
The highest point of Yuelai Inn is on the cornices and brackets.
There were also three to five dishes and two jars of wine, but this time the banquet had not started yet. Feng Yan, an old man who was an alcoholic, was walking around Chu Zhou as if looking at something rare!
Chu Zhou felt uncomfortable looking at him. He stretched out his hand to stop you and said directly: "Old drunkard, believe it or not, if you behave like this again, I will kick you down."
"What's the use of kicking me? Now the news has spread to the entire Baisha City, oh, no, no, no, it's estimated that in a few days, the entire Tianquan County will know.
That was an invitation sent by Zhou Wu himself. Do you know what kind of reputation that is? ”
Chu Zhou smiled bitterly: "But I feel like I'm being roasted on a fire!"
Feng Yan poured himself a sip of wine, but sneered and said: "Just bake it, the so-called real gold is not afraid of fire!
Those who live in the world will have strength, reputation, and naturally money, power, and beauty. That is a happy life.
Even an old guy like me yearns for it so much, but a guy like you is still so timid, it’s not very satisfying! ”
As he said this, he seemed to have remembered something and said: "By the way, do you know what nickname you are being given now?"
"What?"
"Dharma Protector Spirit Officer!"
Chu Zhou's mind was filled with questions: "What kind of nickname is this?"
"Buddhism has the Angry-Eye Vajra, and Taoism has the Dharma Protector God General. You are three meters tall with the power of dominating the body. You are extremely powerful and brave. And because you are from the lineage of Xuan Zhen Guan, you belong to Taoism. Therefore, this 'Dharma Protector Spirit' Is the title of “official” appropriate? ”
"This?"
Chu Zhou thought for a while and seemed to think that it really meant something. Feng Yan, the drunkard old man, looked at his expression and said, "You are satisfied, this nickname is not bad.
Moreover, there is a saying in the world that you can only call someone by the wrong name, but never by the wrong nickname.
You look very apt to me! ”
"So you call him an old drunkard?"
"If you say that, we don't have to chat."
Chu Zhou waved his hand and said quickly: "Old drunkard, I am looking for you today because I have a question to ask..."
"Tell me?"
Feng Yan also sat down, picked up the chopsticks, picked up some braised beef, and was about to put it into his mouth.
"Do you know what the position of worship at Wenxiang Temple is?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Offer?"
Feng Yan stopped chewing, he raised his head blankly, looked at Chu Zhou, and asked: "The invitation does not invite you as a worshipper?"
Chu Zhou shook his head: "That's not true!"
As soon as he said these words, Feng Yan's body relaxed, but Chu Zhou's words the next second made him feel even more uncomfortable.
"I didn't say anything on the post, but when Wenxiangguan Zhou Wu invited me to Anyue City, he said he would treat me as a worshipper.
I didn't think anything of it at the time. I was ready to refuse, but I didn't. Thinking about it later, I felt that this 'offering' seemed to have some deep meaning, so I wanted to ask you about it. ”
Feng Yan tried his best to swallow the food in his mouth, took a big gulp of wine, then stood up and walked forward without saying a word.
How did Chu Zhou react? He raised his hand and grabbed his clothes, pulling him back.
"No, that's half the story. Why are you walking?"
"Hey, come back, come back!"
Feng Yan was pulled by Chu Zhou and staggered, and sat back down. When he looked up at Chu Zhou, he was filled with resentment.
"I don't want to talk anymore. Besides, I'm afraid I'll be mad at you!"
"What's there to be angry about? Is it this offering or some other great status?"
"Of course the offerings from other families are nothing, and are even synonymous with being ostracized, but those are the offerings from Wenxiang Temple, and they are different."
Feng Yan knew that Chu Zhou didn't understand this, so he took another sip of wine and explained in detail: "Wenxiang Temple is not as long as the Yunya Sword Sect, nor does it have such a long history, nor does it have such a powerful inheritance.
Before Zhou Wu, Wenxiang Temple was a Taoist temple, famous for making incense. It wasn't until Zhou Wu was recruited as a talented disciple that it really came to prominence.
However, even so, it seemed to have gone through a strife within it. It was not until Zhou Wucheng returned from his innate life that he took back the power and continued to grow and develop.
Until now, it is almost comparable to the Yunya Sword Sect. ”
After a pause, he added: "The reason why I say almost is because although Wenxiang Guan has developed rapidly, its foundation is still too shallow.
For example, in the Yunya Sword Sect, above the leader Yun Lie, it is said that there are still masters from the previous generation.
Every level below it, including marrow training, meridians training, internal organs training, including muscles, skin and bones, all have many disciples and talented people.
In this regard, Wen Xiang Guan is much different! ”
"Of course, Zhou Wu also used his own methods. Since there was not enough time and training, he would recruit people from outside.
As long as they have real kung fu and good strength, even if they have shortcomings in character or have committed crimes, he will accept them all and give them excellent treatment.
Therefore, Wenxiangguan can almost be said to be a mixed place with everyone. ”
Chu Zhou understood something clearly after hearing this, and asked: "Then what is the sacrifice?"
"The worshiper is the one with the highest status, the best treatment, and the most powerful among this group of external recruits.
It is said that the mandatory requirement is to be an innate warrior! ”
Feng Yan looked at Chu Zhou and said: "So, the number one master in Tianquan County treats you as an innate warrior.
Yes, do you know what the treatment of this offering is? ”
Chu Zhou shook his head: "How could I know?"
"One of them is the Calm and Requiem Incense, which I get every year! That's right, it's the one I changed after fighting for so many days.
And you, if you get this enshrinement position, you will have it every year! ”
Having said this, the drunkard old man stood up again, used Qinggong, and floated out.
Chu Zhou hurriedly said: "Hey, wait, old drunkard, you don't want to eat?"
"Whatever you want to eat, I'm so angry!"
The words of the drunkard old man were carried in the wind, and his figure had long since disappeared into the sky, leaving Chu Zhou alone on the eaves and brackets, his thoughts drifting away.
Knowing the meaning of this offering, Chu Zhou was not very happy. Instead, he realized that this trip to Tianquan County was in great danger.
Therefore, you have to think of ways to strengthen your strength!
When this idea came up, Chu Zhou already knew that it was time for him to enter the Heavenly Court and the Hall of Acceptance tonight.
