"The man Jugonasu ...... It's weird. ”

did not use "strong" but "weird", because this is indeed the biggest feeling that Zhu Ge Nasu gave Zhang Yuankong. After nailing the two iron nails into his body, he did not burst out with huge combat power at once as Zhang Yuankong imagined, and repelled the three of them like a withering and decaying force. He's just gotten a little faster, a little stronger, and a little tougher. But in the face of Shenxiao's three sons, this is still not enough, and after supporting a cup of tea, he was finally beaten upside down and flew upside down and hit the wall, and the dogs around him were all blown to pieces.

But this was not the end: though short and thin, he seemed to have an endless life, and Jugonazu rose from the ground as if he were nothing, still chanting the intricate and incomprehensible songs, and took out more iron nails and stabbed them into his body.

The more iron nails that are pierced, the smaller the increase will be, even when the fourteenth nail has been nailed, Zhu Ge Nasu is still not the opponent of Xie Baihu and the three. But by this time, the three of them could not help but feel frightened.

…… In the end, how many more nails can be driven into Zhu Gonassu's body?

With this in mind, look at the dense old scars on Zhugonassou's body, and then imagine what it looks like under his clothes...... The mouths of the three people were full of bitter water.

And Zhang Yuankong, who was standing from a distance and watching the battle, knew more than them: Xie Baihu was just suspicious, but he definitely knew that Zhu Ge Nasu ...... There is still room to spare!

Because, almost from the beginning of the battle, a crow with half an iron nail on its head so thin that there was no luster on its feathers flew out of the forest silently, squatted on the tree next to Zhang Yuankong, and looked at him silently.

(From the beginning, he knew we were here, right?) ）

Along the way, I had already noticed that the closer I got to the morgue, the more dead and silent the forest became, but at that time, I only thought that it was birds and beasts and knew that I was afraid of the evil sect here, so I didn't think too much about it. It wasn't until the crow flew close that he was horrified.

(This forest is his domain at all!) ）

Thinking like this, Zhang Yuankong didn't make any other moves, just smiled and nodded to the crow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the end, the quagmire battle was finally over: it was not the side that won, but the men who had enough weight to break the siege. A panting middle-aged man hurriedly ran up, still far away, waved his arms vigorously, and shouted, "Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding!" ”。

"Tsk, Chang Yanfu is also here, that's not a good show."

"It's him."

Naturally, he didn't know this middle-aged man, but when Carmen called out his name, Zhang Yuankong also knew where this was sacred.

Zoroastrianism has always been the most closed and xenophobic of the Three Yi Religions: compared to the Jingjiao, which actively tried to expand its influence among the Xia people, and Manichaeism, which was almost equal to the Taiping Tao of the White Lotus Sect in the eyes of the government, Zoroastrianism was so closed that it refused to preach at all, and only spread among the Yi people themselves.

The one who changed this status quo was Chang Yanfu.

In a chance situation, I came into contact with the relevant beliefs of "Hu Tianshen", and naturally I was very impressed, and I began to study hard. At first, he encountered pressure from both sides: Zoroastrianism treated this inexplicable Xia man with indifference, and his own relatives and friends felt that it was completely crazy, but he never gave up, he scattered all his wealth, translated Zoroastrian scriptures, spread the belief in Zoroastrianism, as far as Zhang Yuankong knew, not long ago he brought the Shenxiao faction into the disgraced Daozang compilation incident, and it was precisely because of his large bribes that he was able to put "great divine power, universal salvation of all suffering, can subdue the Quartet, and defend the Dharma." Such words are mixed into the Daozang.

Although he looked only a middle-aged man in his forties, Zhang Yuankong knew that Chang Yanfu was already over seventy years old. He himself is also very proud of this kind of maintenance, and often says: "This is the blessing of Hu Tianshen!" ”

Under the mediation of Chang Yanfu, this seemingly meaningless battle finally ended: the three people who left in a daze didn't dare to lose any more scenes this time. Although they had the upper hand just now, no one wanted to do it again because of this seemingly never-ending repetition.

The two people hiding in the forest were not found, and when Xie Baihu and the other three left, Chang Yanfu and Zhu Gen Nasu exchanged a few words of greeting, and then turned around and left. After he left, Jugonazu thumped his waist and coughed back into the courtyard and closed the door.

From beginning to end, he didn't look at Zhang Yuankong's side, but when the door creaked and was closed, the crow finally withdrew the indifferent eyes that had been staring at Zhang Yuankong, waved its wings, turned around, and flew towards the morgue.

…… From the beginning to the end, the crow did not make any sound.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After watching such a battle, the two continued to walk towards Qingyuan Mountain, but Zhang Yuankong was obviously silent along the way.

(The way Jugo Nasu fights...... It's actually very similar to my Thirty-Six Ways Tiangang Method? ）

From the battle just now, Zhang Yuankong couldn't feel the necessity of Zhang Dian to include Zhu Ge Nasu in one of the four names, it is true that he is very strong, but he is by no means strong enough to make the three Zhang brothers choose to avoid it directly.

(Is it because he has more potential that hasn't been unleashed at all, or is it because ...... What is the similarity between his power and my Gangfa? ）

Thinking thoughtfully, Zhang Yuankong suddenly opened his mouth and asked Carmen what his status was in Zoroastrianism.

"Status?"

Sneering, Carmen said that probably because he was a Yiren, it was really difficult to understand what Zhang Yuankong wanted to ask.

"Anyway, according to the Xia language I know, the words 'status' and 'gatekeeper' are difficult to associate together."

As if that weren't enough to express herself, Carmen added something in particular.

“…… Moreover, I still look at the gate of Yizhuang! ”

It's the same as what Zhang Yuankong thought, but this is also what puzzled Zhang Yuankong, no matter where, the strong are always respected, with the ability that Zhu Ge Nasu just showed, whether it is in Longhu Mountain or Shenxiao Dao, it is enough to become a small hill of its own, as far as Zoroastria itself is concerned, Sun Dao is said to be the second person in the sect, and judging from his performance that day, he may not be stronger than him. So, what is the reason for this old man to stoop to the Zoroastrian religion and become a nameless corpse keeper?

"Of course, because he's a true believer...... How can such a person be able to rise up if he wants nothing but faith in God? ”

Completely dissatisfied with Zhang Yuankong's doubts, Carmen smiled and said: "I, I have known for a long time, no matter what religion is the same, as long as it is the main thing, then there is no true faith!" The more you go up, the less people believe you! ”

“…… What nonsense are you talking about! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Wait, wait, I said Zhang Zhenren, let's wait first."

stopped Zhang Yuankong's narration, Yun Chongbo asked suspiciously, from just now, he felt that something was not quite right.

"I said, it's okay for you to talk about what you have experienced, but just now, you were 'frightened' and 'bitter water'...... What are the Taoist priests of the Shenxiao Sect thinking, how do you know? ”

"Huh? That's a good question. ”

Smiling and waving his hand, Zhang Yuankong continued: "Then, let's go on, at that time, Carmen said to me......"

"Don't be busy, I haven't finished asking yet."

Frowning, Yun Chongbo thought and said, "There is something wrong...... Zhu Gen Nasu, and that Sun Dao man, according to what you said, should be Yi people, right? They use all the spells in the Yi Sect, right? ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

"I don't think it's right!"

Slamming the table, Yun Chongbo said angrily: "Yi people, use the spells of Yi Sect...... Then why did they use the words of the Xia people to recite the incantation? How can you understand?! ”

"Bastard boy!"

Slapping on the table with more force, Zhang Yuankong stood up angrily, panting, and his beard blew up.

"Are you here to listen to the story or are you here to play the game?"

"If you don't want to hear it, you can ...... it from the group I mean, get out of here! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After questioning being suppressed so strongly, Yun Chongbo sat down and said humbly, "You continue, you continue", which was easy to soothe Zhang Yuankong's anger.

"Anyway, at that time, boy, I was as angry as you are today!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the face of Zhang Yuankong's anger, Carmen showed a completely indifferent appearance, lazily spread her hands, and rolled her eyes, and after a while, she reluctantly added that maybe it was different in Great Xia?

"You are the gold master, you have the final say, I believe that all the Taoist priests of Great Xia who can become the pope or the red clothes must be the most pious Taoists, okay?"

This kind of thing that looks like a provocation more than an apology, obviously it is impossible to satisfy Zhang Yuankong, but fortunately, Carmen still has a good eye, and it seems that he is really angry when he looks at Zhang Yuankong, so he quickly pretends to be crazy and stupid, and makes gags, and finally brings this topic over.

The two of them were silent and continued on their way, but after a while, Carmen suddenly let out another long sigh.

"Speaking of which, back then, ......"

Recalling her childhood, Carmen said that she lived happily with her parents in a mountainous area near the sea.

"There, there are both the Nestorian Sect and the Heavenly Sect, but the trust of the leader is the Heavenly Sect."

Then one day, a lame man came here and called on everyone to say, this place ...... It's the territory of the Nestorians! How could devout Nestorians, be ruled by paganism?

He roared, and the war immediately ignited, and everyone fought for many years, but they really beat the people of the Heavenly Fang Sect away...... But that's not what I'm trying to say. ”

He recalled that at that time, the place where his family lived was the edge of the concentration of Nestorian and Tianfang believers, and across the river, there was a crescent moon and a cross sign standing tall.

"One day, the abbot of the Nestorian Sect discussed with the abbot of the Heavenly Sect and said that he wanted to buy one of his breeding sheep."

It is added that these two people are good sheep keepers, and they both have their own pastures and flocks, but all along, the abbot of the Heavenly Sect is always better than one and can raise the most majestic head sheep.

"The abbot was so happy...... Say, I don't sell! ”

In this way, the two negotiated for a long time, and at last, the abbot finally relented and said, "Well, as long as you say aloud to me, no one, including you Nestorian God, can bring the dead back to life!" I'll sell you my best breeding sheep!

"Ah, did he really say that?"

Although he only has a superficial understanding of the Sanyi Sect, Zhang Yuankong also knows that the teachings of the Jingjiao are almost entirely based on a saint who has died and risen from the dead, and for the Jingjiao, this is equivalent to the status of the Sanqing to the Taoist priest and the Buddha to the monk.

"Of course...... But that's not the end. ”

After hesitating for a long time, the abbot of Jingjiao finally opened his mouth, and then the two began to enter the specific negotiation link.

"The abbot of the Heavenly Fang Sect asks for fifty guan, but the abbot of the Jingjiao sect is only willing to pay thirty guan."

After pestering for a long time, the abbot finally thought of a way to take revenge, and he made a request, as long as the other party was willing to say loudly that the gods of his sect would not give any blessings and blessings to the believers, he was willing to buy the sheep for fifty yuan.

“…… He said it, too, right? ”

As Zhang Yuanwu thought, after hesitating for a long time, the abbot hesitated and said, Hmm, that one...... At least it is true that he has not blessed any of the believers he knows. And at the end it was added that "...... After all, twenty is a lot of money! ”

"They, really...... Yes! ”

In the end, he still didn't give any evaluation, Zhang Yuankong sighed and continued to hurry, but when he talked to Carmen next, he finally didn't put on that gloomy face anymore.

After turning over the mountain, he walked faster and faster, not long after, the smell of incense faintly came from the front, and then walked a few steps, Zhang Yuankong saw the natural generation of stone doors in front of him, and the four words of "Qingyuan Dongtian" on the seal, and the heart said, "It can be calculated!" ”

Speed up a few steps and pass through the stone gate...... But he immediately froze there.

“…… What's going on?! ”

In the roar, he was full of anger, because the layout of the Qingyuan Temple in front of him was something Zhang Yuankong had never seen before, and when he entered the door, a large road was divided into two sides, the right side was the layout of the Taoist Temple that he was very familiar with, and the left side was ...... In the incense on the left, many monks and believers are in and out, and it is actually an out-and-out Buddha hall!
