Chapter 222 Chenzhou Thunder Altar Heavenly Book Ancient Talisman
“What are you looking for me for?”
“You don’t have any confidence in your shopkeeper?”
He Yu I greeted my uncle and several seniors who were retiring in seclusion in the village.
Chen Yulou then turned his eyes to Guaizi.
He joked softly.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, shopkeeper, the kidnapper has the absolute first confidence in you."
Huamaguai shouted innocently at first.
Immediately I thought of something and said seriously.
"By the way, shopkeeper, the account books of the stores in all prefectures, states, counties and counties have been sent. Uncle Yu and I have already read them. You still need to go through them, sign and seal them."
"Okay, I understand."
Hearing this.
Chen Yulou suddenly realized.
The Chen family has a wide range of businesses, but the pillars at the bottom of the box are still antique utensils.
Spreading out step by step from Xiangyin City.
There are almost all Chen's shops in all the states and counties in the three provinces, Hunan and four rivers.
In addition to moving Jinlou in Changsha, the provincial capital, the following prefectures and counties have also been laid out for a long time.
They are cross-linked with each other.
This is the reason why the Chen family endures for so long.
The boss of the previous generation, Chen Yulou’s father, established rules while he was still alive in order to prevent chaos in various shops.
Every year when spring and summer alternate with autumn and winter.
The managers of each shop sent all the account details for the past six months to Chenjiazhuang.
Only those whose account books are correct can continue to manage affairs.
Otherwise, no matter how qualified you are, you will be dealt with according to family rules.
This can range from expulsion to never hiring.
The most important thing is to copy Tan Mo and treat it with three swords and six holes in Changsheng Mountain.
Although there are severe punishments, as long as you sit in the position of manager, the annual salary is very attractive.
So, as long as you are not blinded by a little profit, with a big tree like the Chen family, you can live a lifetime of prosperity and wealth, and you will never have to worry about food and clothing.
This matter is related to the interests of the Chen family.
No wonder Huamaguai said he was going to Wuku Temple to look for someone.
Without his handwriting and private seal, the account book would not be considered satisfactory.
"Did anything else happen while I was gone?"
Chen Yulou casually handed the horse to the boy beside him.
Walking along the lake embankment.
The vitality of the past is gone on Yun Lake, most of the lotus leaves have withered, and only a few herons can be seen occasionally passing by on the lake.
"There are really two things."
The group of people followed.
Huamaguai thought for a while and responded.
"The first one, half a month ago, Luo Laowai asked for a meeting in the middle of the night, saying that the person behind Song Laowu secretly sent him letters and tried to use a hundred guns to win him over and make him rebel. ”
“A hundred guns is really a big deal.”
Chen Yulou raised his eyebrows and sneered.
Previously, Luo Laowai raided Huodong Temple and Hubi Village under his orders, killed Peng Laizi and Song Laowu, and pulled out the last two nails on the border of Xiangyin.
He knew it then.
The people behind Song Laowu and Peng Laizi will take action sooner or later.
After all, cut off their outstretched hands.
Naturally, he will not give up.
However, if you still use such small means to play dirty tricks behind your back, it can only be said that it is true and cannot be put on the table.
If he really dared to take action, Chen Yulou might even respect him as a man.
“Haha, not only is it not small...”
“This gesture is almost as big as the sky.”
He could hear the coldness in the shopkeeper's words.
Huamaguai also looked disdainful.
One hundred guns, if placed elsewhere, might create some waves.
But it is far from enough in front of the Chen family.
Not to mention Changsheng Mountain, even the pistol camp that Luo Laowai spent a lot of money to build has more than a hundred in total.
"What did Luo Laowai say?"
"He was quite sensible. He came to the village with a letter that night to show his loyalty. As for the person who sent the message, he was shot dead."
Hear this.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but reveal a hint of amusement at the corner of his mouth.
Luo Laowai is definitely a smart man.
But there are so many smart people in the world, but very few can reach his level.
It can only be said that Luo Laowai has pretty good eyesight.
Know what you can and cannot do.
It’s not in vain that he deliberately showed his hand last time on the lake.
“What else?”
"There's one more thing. It's not in Xiangyin, but in Chenzhou next door."
"Chenzhou?"
Hearing these two words, Chen Yulou's mind couldn't help but move.
Almost subconsciously, the old man who raised Angry Chicken in Beizhai suddenly appeared in his mind.
“Yes, Jin Zhai and Hu Zhai, who have been together for nearly a hundred years, suddenly got into a fight. The disciples of both sides were fighting each other, and even the middle and senior leaders of Lei Tan were involved.”
Taoism has flourished in Chenzhou since ancient times.
It’s just that unlike Taoist sects such as Wudang and Longhu, Chenzhou Taoist sect is closer to the Maoshan sect. The corpse exorcism technique, known as one of the three major evil arts in western Hunan, comes from Chenzhou.
At the same time, because Chenzhou has been rich in cinnabar since ancient times, Chenzhou Talisman is even more famous all over the world.
For hundreds of years.
Chenzhou Daomen has always been controlled by Jin Zhai and Hu Zhai.
Both sides walked toward the main road, each side walking toward the sky.
No contact.
I didn’t expect that such a big thing would happen just a month after I left home.
“Do you know why?”
A trace of curiosity flashed across Chen Yulou’s face.
He really couldn't understand.
How could the situation that had been peaceful for hundreds of years be broken?
"There are rumors in the world that someone under the Lei Tan Gate of Hu Zhai stole an ancient talisman and defected. That talisman is of great importance. Hu Zhai searched for social cards everywhere, but accidentally broke into Jin Zhai's territory."
“The two sides were limited to friction at the beginning.”
“But I don’t know who spread the rumor, saying that the traitor from Hu Zhai was instigated by Jin Zhai. Now he also escaped into Jin Zhai’s territory and was The people in the golden house shelter and hide.”
"This matter spread more and more widely, and the top management of Hu Zhai asked Jin Zhai to hand in someone, and then the trouble got out of hand."
The distance between Xiangyin and Chenzhou is only three to four hundred miles.
It can be reached through Yiyang, Taojiang and Anhua.
How could it be possible to hide this from the eyes and ears of the Chen family when they were fighting life and death?
"Ancient Talisman..."
Chen Yulou was even more surprised when he heard this.
On their last trip to southern Yunnan, they passed by outside Chenzhou City.
In addition, in order to study the talismans, he also specially sent people to Chenzhou to buy a few at high prices.
It’s a pity that they are all imported goods.
Not much can be seen.
Nowadays, the two major thunder altars of Jinzhai and Huzhai are fighting to the death for an ancient talisman.
You don’t need to think about it all.
That Chenzhou Talisman must have a lot of background.
Glancing at Huamaguai, the latter suddenly felt something.
He has been with the shopkeeper for many years, almost growing up together.
He is also best at observing words and expressions.
How could you not see the shopkeeper’s thoughts at this moment?
It’s just that there are a lot of people talking at the moment, and they are just about to find a reason to leave, but Chen Yulou takes the initiative to speak out.
“The two major thunder altars can be passed down for hundreds of years, so we should not treat each other casually.”
“The brothers on the mountain are worse after all.”
"And they have such a strong sense of gangsterism that their flaws will be revealed as soon as they make a move."
Chen Yulou did not shy away.
There are currently ten people by the lake. Except for Yang Fang, who has been here for a short time, the rest are either Chen family confidants or people who have had a life-long friendship with him.
"What do you mean by shopkeeper Yi?"
Huamaguai put away his thoughts and waited quietly.
Chen Yulou looked at Yang Fang and the old foreigner on the side.
"You two are strangers to each other. Could you please trouble me, two brothers, to take a trip to Chenzhou for me?"
"This... is natural."
Two The people's eyes met each other, with a hint of surprise flashing across their expressions.
It seems that he did not expect that this matter would happen to him.
However, since it was commissioned by Chen Yulou, how could they refuse?
Yang Fang also wanted to learn Taoism from his disciples.
As for the old foreigners, this is even more true.
In his opinion, if it weren't for Boss Chen, the three brothers and sisters would have spent their entire lives unable to find the whereabouts of Muchen Bead.
Not to mention, for so long, all the expenses for food, clothing, housing and transportation for the three of them have been borne by the Chen family. In addition, no matter whether he is a senior, a senior, a junior, or he himself, if he doesn’t have the help of Chen Baotou, it will be as difficult as climbing to heaven if he wants to step into the practice.
The old foreigner will only feel that he finally has a chance to repay.
"You are not familiar with the place over in Chenzhou, kidnapper, find a few more guys to accompany you, um... let Zhang Yunqiao handle it."
"Yes, from the shopkeeper."
Seeing that the shopkeeper had already arranged the matter clearly in a few words.
Huamaguai immediately took the order.
"Shopkeeper Chen, when will we set off?"
Yang Fang's eyes were eager to try.
Although he had never heard of the names of Jin Zhai and Hu Zhai, he could glean something from their words just now. They should be quite famous in the world.
The snipe and the clam are fighting, with the oriole behind.
It's exciting just to hear it.
For a while, he couldn't hold himself back and wished he could leave earlier.
"Hahaha, brother Yang Fang, don't be impatient. It's been a hard journey all the way. Let's rest for a while. It's not too late to make a plan before setting off."
Seeing his impatient eyes.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
After returning from Wuku Temple, the image of the thorn-headed martial arts idiot seemed to have returned to him.
"...that's fine."
Being enlightened.
Yang Fang couldn't help scratching his head.
Because of this matter, Chen Yulou no longer wanted to chat, and led a group of people straight to Guanyun Tower.
It’s almost as long as a cup of tea.
Huamaguai has brought Zhang Yunqiao and others.
Looking at their movements, their splendid eyes, and their bulging temples, you can tell that they are all top-notch martial artists.
In addition, he also specially brought over two guys who had worked in Chenzhou.
“Hu Zhai and Jin Zhai are in charge of the east and west respectively.”
"It seems peaceful on weekdays, but in fact there have been many overt and covert fights in recent years. Everyone in Chenzhou City knows it. It's just that the two families are powerful and no one dares to talk nonsense."
"This generation of Hu Zhaitan The master is Hu Man Gong, who is said to be best at raising corpses."
"The master of the Jinzhai Altar is Jin Zhenmu, and he is good at Chenzhou Talisman."
"Both families share it. Having been in Chenzhou for three hundred years, the entangled forces are astonishing. If you want to succeed, you must be careful. "
Two guys, you talk to each other.
A few moments later.
Chen Yulou finally has a clear picture of the inside and outside of Chenzhou.
Looking down at the map of Chenzhou spread out on the table.
I already have a vague plan in mind.
“Besides these two thunder altars, are there other forces in Chenzhou that can compete with them?”
"This..."
Hearing the boss's words.
Both guys were deep in thought.
He hesitated for a moment, and suddenly, one of them's eyes lit up.
“There really is a family, sandwiched between the two thunder altars. It seems to be called Basu. They moved from the Miao Village to Chenzhou City. It is said that their magic skills are unpredictable and extremely dangerous.”
"Even Jin Zhai and Hu Zhai don't want to provoke him."
"Gu technique..."
Hearing this, Chen Yulou's eyes couldn't help but twitch.
Damn it, the only one missing from the three major evil arts in western Hunan is the Luohua Cave Girl.
However, this is undoubtedly a good breakthrough.
Start with Basu.
Able to minimize difficulty.
"Okay, you two will also go to Chenzhou. As long as a human being has a weakness, you two are responsible for buying him off."
"Yes, the boss."
< br>The two of them had guessed that there would be such a scene since they came down the mountain and entered the village.
I have already been mentally prepared.
I nodded and agreed immediately.
Waiting for a brief meal.
Without any further delay, Yang Fang and the old foreigner, together with Zhang Yunqiao and others, left Chenjiazhuang and headed straight for Chenzhou.
Chen Yulou’s request for them is.
Safety first.
If you can't do it, get out immediately.
The Jin House and the Hu House can stand for hundreds of years without falling down, and even the power of Changsheng Mountain is difficult to penetrate, so there must be something terrifying about it.
The reason why I asked Yang Fang and the old foreigner.
One is face-to-face.
Even if they show up, it is difficult for the two families to suspect the Chen family in Xiangyin.
Another skill that the two thunder altars are most proud of is raising corpses.
Yang Fang holds the magic whip, while the old foreigner possesses the unique skill of kicking and moving mountains.
Both can restrain the corpse evil.
In addition, one of the two is good at close combat and the other is good at long-range attack. If they cooperate with each other, as long as they are not unlucky enough to run into the two old guys Hu Mangong or Jin Zhenmu, they will basically be safe and completely covered. retreat.
"Brother Chen, do you want to try the magic of talismans?"
Upstairs in Guanyun Tower.
Through the window, I watched the group of people gradually disappear into the mountains outside Chenjiazhuang.
Partridge Whistle then looked back and asked.
“Alchemy pills for internal alchemy and talismans for external use, although there were two types of elixir cauldrons and talisman pots thousands of years ago, they actually come from the same origin.”
"So, there is no conflict between breathing and making talismans."
Chen Yulou shrugged.
Responded paradoxically.
What he said seemed vague, but in fact he made his thoughts clear.
But how could Partridge Whistle know that when he came back from Fuxian Lake, he was already studying the talismans.
There are thirteen clouds and heavenly writings written on the whip for beating ghosts.
Up to now, I have only been able to understand two or three things.
As for why we want to fight for the ancient talisman of Jinzhai Lei Altar, the opportunity is in front of us, is there any indisputable reason?
Of course.
The most important point.
That day when I got the ghost-beating whip at Jiao Palace under Fuxian Lake.
He then learned that this object was a large Nuo witchcraft weapon, following the path of witchcraft, which was almost the same as the Chenzhou Thunder Altar.
Exterminate zombies and witchcraft in western Hunan.
The most famous one is actually Nuo opera.
The Nuo opera is derived from the Nuo method.
It can be said that Nuo and witchcraft are closely related.
Three hundred years of the Jinzhai Thunder Altar allowed them to come out in full force and kill like rivers of blood to recapture the ancient talisman. They could even think of it with their toes, and it was an absolutely worthless good thing.
Maybe it’s another heavenly book.
Every talisman of this kind is rare in the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the ancestor of talismans in the world.
Once snatched back.
There will be another heavenly book in his hand.
It is of great benefit to practice.
How could Chen Yulou miss this kind of thing?
“Yes.”
Partridge Whistle nodded.
His practice is like boating and climbing mountains, every step is extremely difficult.
How can I have extra time to study other things.
But looking at Chen Yulou, breaking through the realm is like drinking water. Now he no longer dares to guess where Chen Yulou's cultivation has reached.
He only knew that he could not see through it at all.
Seeing him is like a flower in the mist of the moon in the water.
"Brother Chen, Yang has to go back to study the sixteen characters. Time is tight and there is no room for delay, so we won't stay any longer."
Putting away his thoughts, Partridge Whistle hugged his fists and said solemnly.
“Okay, Brother Tao, feel free to do whatever you want.”
Chen Yulou nodded.
On their way back, apart from eating and sleeping, Partridge Whistle focused almost entirely on Sixteen Characters.
The level of hard work is absolutely unprecedented.
How can it be stopped at this moment.
When he left, Hua Ling and Miss Hong also left one after another.
The two girls have been busy traveling for more than a month, especially on the way back home under the stars and at night. It doesn’t matter that they are rough guys, but they will definitely be unbearable.
Chen Yulou knew it well and didn’t say much.
Not long after.
Inside the huge Guanyun Tower.
Only he, Kunlun and Huamaguai were left.
"Let's go to the cave and let me see if you two have made any progress after staying here for so long."
