"No one thought of this, and no one is to blame. Now we have successfully repelled the officers and soldiers, and everyone has credit! Ao Wu waved his hand.

"We lost this time because we don't have weapons, and in the face of officers and soldiers with weapons, no matter how good we are, we will only be beaten!" The old village chief sighed and said, "This time we confiscated their weapons, sect master, distribute these weapons to us, with these weapons, even if we encounter officers and soldiers again, we can block them and protect the holy land!" ”

As for the issue of weapons, Ao Wu also took it into account.

Although many villagers have reached the strength of Huangkou Sanchongtian, they will still bleed when they are hit by a knife, and they can only retreat in the face of well-equipped officers and soldiers.

So, they need weapons now.

This is the first time that the Spirit Sect has encountered the invasion of foreign enemies, although it has successfully solved the crisis, but it has given Ao Wu a sense of danger, and in the future, I am afraid that there will be no less such things.

Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen its own defense forces!

The weapons he fancied were the weapons built by Cheng Jiazhuang, which were refined by his new steelmaking method.

Now that I have temporarily obtained the weapons of these 5,000 people, I can use them temporarily, but if I want to have my own weapons, I still need to build them myself. It seems that it is necessary to find among the believers whether there is a blacksmith.

"Okay, agree with the old village chief, after the weapons go back, they will be assigned to eight villages." Ao Wu said, "This task will be handed over to Seventy-two." ”

In fact, he is more interested in protective things, as long as the believer is not harmed by weapons. With their skills, they are really not afraid of those officers and soldiers.

Ao Wu remembered the Jiaoyu he caught, and their skin was very good. Thinking about it, at the beginning, the Dharma Venerable could even block his own samadhi true fire, so this sword and gun became a trivial matter.

It's a pity that the Jiaoyu haven't bred yet, and there are only two of them, which will have to wait a year or two to do it.

However, Ao Wu is not in a hurry.

"Thank you, Master!" The old village chief said to Ao Wu gratefully, "Sect Master, I have a request. I'm no longer fit to be the village chief. I want to pass on the village chief to Baishan, please ask the master to agree! ”

The GI approached, but he did not raise his vigilance, and in the end he was arrested. He felt a little guilty about himself.

"Master. We're at fault, too. It's not the village chief's fault! ”

Wang Baishan and others voluntarily pleaded guilty.

"The village chief is not to blame for this. The village chief wanted to give Baishan a chance to exercise, and I agreed. Later, Wang Baishan was the new village head of Qiangou Village. The old village chief is idle, so he will come to the Holy Land to take charge of the induction class for new believers. Named you an ordained priest! Ao Wu said to the old village chief.

made him a priest, so people didn't think that this was punishing the old village chief, but promoted him.

The old village chief was a little excited, and hurriedly grateful.

The other villagers were very happy when they heard this.

Lao Wang has been doing the induction class recently, and now the work is handed over to the old village chief, Ao Wu arranged a new job for Lao Wang, and said: "Lao Wang will be responsible for recruiting Protestants in the future, promoting spiritual religion, and naming you as a missionary priest!" ”

Lao Wang is an old man, and his work in personnel and communication is just right for him.

"Yes, Master!" Lao Wang took over the new task.

Ao Wu said to Zhang Seventy-two: "You will be responsible for the force and security of the Spirit Sect in the future, and you will be named an apologetic priest." ”

"Yes, Master!" Zhang Seventy-two is the first believer of the Spirit Sect, the earliest cultivator, and the strongest believer, although he has no hands, but no one among the believers is his opponent.

Returning to the Holy Land, the other believers who stayed behind cheered happily when they saw Ao Wu and the others returning triumphantly.

The next day, the people who monitored the barracks came to report that the barracks began to pull out the village early in the morning, and then withdrew from the mountain.

The army has withdrawn, and this realizes that this time the apologetic, the spiritual cult has won!

As the new village head, Wang Baishan took the villagers of Qiangou Village back to Qiangou Village immediately, and they wanted to build Qiangou Village.

If a new building is built, they can rely on it to withstand the horde.

Zhang Seventy-two recruited believers whose strength had reached the Huangkou Dual Heaven and the Triple Heaven to form the spiritual sect's defense force, which was divided into nine parts, some of which remained in the Holy Land, and the rest were divided into eight villages. The weapons that were confiscated last night were also distributed to these people.

Lao Wang and the old village chief were responsible for one inside and one outside, and the two began to work closely together.

Li Chun led the servants to continue to step up the construction of the road. After absorbing the spiritual energy, the divine servants became extremely strong, and their strength was seven or eight times greater than that of ordinary people.

Li Chun couldn't help but sigh, with these divine servants, the progress of the project is ten times faster!

And because they have a lot of strength, some heavy work that they used to have to do by all means can now be easily done!

He promised Ao Wu that the basic works on Mount Tai would be completed within a year.

Ao Wu looked at everything arranged on Mount Tai, and thought in his heart, Zhang Xutuo was out of the mountain, and he had to go to Yang Guang to talk about it, otherwise he would have to be punished.

Of course, if he didn't explain to Yang Guang, he would still send troops into the mountains, and then there would be a big trouble!

Early the next morning, Ao Wu was about to go down the mountain, but he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw two old men standing outside the sacred woods.

He touched his nose with a wry smile, it couldn't be that the two elders of them were also going to join the sect, right?

Ao Wu walked over and said, "Grandpa and Auntie are also here to join the sect?" ”

The second elder paused, turned his head to look at Ao Wu, and the second elder's face showed a look of joy.

They are Ao Wu's parents here, Lao Yutou and Lao Po.

The old lady happily came over and took Ao Wu's hand and said, "I finally found you!" ”

Ao Wu looked at the expressions of the two of them, and felt that they were not here to join the sect, but to find him.

"Why, you're here for me?"

The old woman nodded and said, "Yes, we just heard that you were on Mount Tai, and we found it!" ”

"You're really, you haven't seen you home for so long." The old man said reproachfully.

"Uh, what do you need to hurry to me?" Ao Wu asked.

Lao Yutou looked at him with a blaming gaze and said, "You really forgot, the scientific examination is about to start, why don't you go back to Luoyang to prepare for the exam?" You were in Mr. Zhang's house, and said in front of everyone that you don't need to be taught by Mr. Zhang, you can get the official exam, if you don't even get the exam, then you will be laughed at! ”

Rushing to take the exam?

This is what the original body has to do, and Ao Wu doesn't seem to have to do it now.

But listening to the words of the old man, I don't think so.

"Did I say anything like that?"

No, I don't think I said it!

He thought about it, and when he went to Zhang Wei's house to pick a scene, he memorized a lot of poems, but he didn't seem to say that he wanted to take the exam?

The old man glared at him, why didn't he say this!

"Then you won't take the test?" The old man clenched his fists, as if he wanted to teach his son a lesson, "At that time, so many people listened, do you want to make my old face lose everything?" ”

"Okay, okay, can't I go back with you?" Ao Wu served.

He was also about to go down the mountain, so it would be better to go back with the second elder.

He said wait a minute, then turned around and went back to the woods, found He Shou Wu, took a bag of potatoes and corn, and then followed the second elder down the mountain.

They stopped for the night halfway, and Ao Wu roasted potatoes and corn for the second elder to eat.

The second elder tasted such a novel food for the first time, and they all sighed amazingly.

"I have a lot of food at home, but I haven't heard of such beans!" The old woman said with a sigh.

The old man asked, "Is this the food from the Protestant Church on the mountain?" I have long heard that if we don't have food at home, we would want to go up to the mountains to try it. ”

Hearing this, Ao Wu knew the reason why they did not join the religion.

For his own reasons, the second elder is now not worried about eating.

In the afternoon of the next day, the three of Ao Wu finally went down the mountain and returned to Zhong's house.

After going down the mountain this time, I saw the people nearby, which was much more miserable than the last time I saw it.

The flooding has prevented them from harvesting their crops, and after paying a large amount of taxes and rice on last year's grain, there is not much left, and they have just finished eating it now.

Life has become bleak, and everyone has a bitter look on their faces.

Man-made disasters and natural disasters have befallen them together, making them unbearable!

Back at home, the old man and the old woman happily prepared to salute Ao Wu.

The surrounding neighbors all ran over to congratulate Ao Wu in advance.

It seems that the scientific examination, like the college entrance examination, is a major event that is valued by people, a happy event!

Ao Wu inquired about the whereabouts of the Son of Heaven, and after knowing that he was about to pass through the nearest canal here, Ao Wu decided to go here to find Yang Guang.

Two days later, the old lady finally prepared something, a bag of clothes, a bag of dry food, and a bag of five plants, and the second old man and Doctor Zhong came over to send Ao Wu to Luoyang for the scientific expedition.

Ao Wu waved goodbye to them and headed for the canal.

A few days later, Ao Wu released his horse to the mountain.

In the darkness of the night, he leaned against a tree and waited quietly for the arrival of the dragon boat.

The surrounding forbidden troops passed by and didn't seem to find him either.

After waiting for a while, seeing the big dragon boat coming, Ao Wu took off his coat and plunged into the water.

Compared with Yang Guang's singing and dancing when he went down to Jiangdu, it was much simpler when he came back, and he was no longer as luxurious as he was at the beginning!

At this time, Yang Guang was in the attic of the ship, drinking a little wine with Queen Xiao.

He waved his hand and asked a few palace maids and eunuchs in the attic to go down.

Only the queen's personal maid was left to pour wine for them.

Empress Xiao glared at Yang Guang with beautiful eyes, and a slightly shy smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Yang Guang looked at her ambiguously, raised his wine glass, and toasted with Empress Xiao, looking at her affectionately.

Empress Xiao held the cup to her lips and drank it gently.

Suddenly, she slammed into her clothes, and slowly crawled to her chest!

The old husband and wife, this kind of thing is not outside, but there is a palace maid next to it at this time!
