Chapter 110: A skirmish

That was the twenty-seventh year of Guangxu.

At that time, the great powers encroached on the land of China and plundered the interests of resources, and the Holy See also issued a decree vowing to take advantage of this golden opportunity to let the glory of the Lord shine over this pagan land.

After receiving the Pope's decree, missionaries from various churches set out one after another to this strange land and build churches large and small in cities and villages. The churches and churches established in this form are themselves a kind of deformed existence, and conflicts between the parishioners and the common people occur from time to time.

That year, a church was also built in Jintan County, at the foot of Maoshan Mountain.

Those priests quickly encircled a group of parishioners by means such as sending foreign noodles and foreign rice, and in their capacity as foreign adults, they immediately supported the parishioners in case of trouble, and the government naturally did not dare to provoke some foreign adults, and once there was a conflict in the teaching plan, they either ignored it or favored the parishioners. The people of Jintan were not angry, and when their grievances broke out, they gathered together and beat those people who had done evil, and even cut off the noses and ears of the two people who had caused the most harm. Who would have thought that this would provoke the foreign monks in the church, and they did not press the government as usual, but rushed to the village where the incident occurred that night, so that the magic caused the whole village to become zombies overnight, harming people everywhere. The church took the opportunity to publicize that they could be sheltered by believing in them.

When the Taoist priests of the Maoshan faction heard the news of the zombies harming people, they would not sit idly by and send four disciples down the mountain to remove the corpses. This zombie removal clashed with the church, and the missionaries fought against the Maoshan Taoist priests, injuring all four Maoshan disciples. The four Maoshan disciples fled back to the sect to tell the lieutenant general, and took out the collected evidence that the church used magic to harm people, and the head of the Maoshan faction at that time, Yu Jihai, went down the mountain to seek justice, defeated the missionaries of Jintan County, and killed all eight missionaries in the church. I don't want to, but I missed a guy who went out to buy. When the priest returned to the church and saw this scene, he did not dare to stay in Jintan County any longer, so he packed up his things and hurried away, and when he arrived in the provincial capital, he saw a bishop named James on his patrol, so he ran to cry.

This Bishop James is a Chinese expert, after hearing about this, he actually came to the door in accordance with Chinese rules to hand over a post about the battle of the fish and the sea, and did not mention the fact that they made the spell harmful, only said that this battle would solve the conflict between the two sides, if he was defeated, the Holy See forces would no longer set foot in the scope of the Golden Altar, and compensate the four Maoshan disciples who were injured.

Yu Jihai saw that since the other party was acting according to the rules, he took the battle book and set the time for the decisive battle.

At that time, the Songyan Daoist took the big apprentice Yong Hansheng and a few small apprentices and grandchildren as guests in the Maoshan faction, so he advised Yu Jihai to be careful, don't believe these foreign devils, foreign devils are scheming, and they have always liked to make bad, maybe they left some bad tricks waiting there, to say that they will challenge according to the right path, that is something that ghosts don't believe!

But Yu Jihai was strong in his own spells, and he didn't take the words of Songyan Daoist to heart, but only said that no matter what conspiracy the other party had, I would use the spell, and they would all be wiped out, and go back to see the great god called God they worshipped. When the day came, he took his eldest disciple, that is, his own son Yu Xianshan, to the appointment.

Songyan Daoist persuaded not to move the fish to the sea, originally planned to go with him, first, to be a witness, and second, in case there was anything wrong, it was good to take care of it, but unfortunately on the day of the incident, Songyan Daoist received an urgent summons, he had been waiting for a long time to bring important news from a distant visitor arrived in the provincial capital, Songyan Daoist had to rush to the provincial capital to see the distant visitor, and arranged for the disciple Yong Hansheng to take his apprentice to go.

The decisive battle was about the edge of the wild pine forest on the outskirts of Jintan County, and when Yu Jihai and his party arrived, they saw that Bishop James was already waiting there, with only two missionaries with him, one of whom was the one who fled from Jintan County.

The two sides didn't talk speculatively for more than half a sentence, and explained the next scene, and Yu Jihai and Najames, fought together. This oriental Taoism and the magic of the Holy See have their own ingenuity, but Yu Jihai is the head of a big faction that has been passed down for thousands of years on the Chinese hegemony side, and James is at best a small bishop, and he can't be compared with Yu Jihai in magic cultivation, and he fell behind in just a moment, and when he saw that he was about to lose, he took out his pistol and slammed it at Yu Jihai and fired several shots. Fortunately, Yu Jihai had already taken precautions, and used the escape technique of Maoshan Technique to dodge, and stepped forward to snatch James's pistol. James' frontal duel spell was not as good as that of people, so that the trick was discovered again, and he immediately made a decision, turned around and ran into the wild pine forest.

How dare Yu Jihai let him go, he called for Hugh to leave, and chased after him.

At this time, Yong Hansheng's heavenly machine technique was a little successful, seeing Yu Jihai chasing after the fugitive, his heart jumped, he felt that it was inappropriate, pinched his fingers and counted, only to feel that the killing machine was infinite, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly beckoned Yu Jihai to come back.

If this was greeted by Songyan Daoren, Yu Jihai might still be able to think about it, but Yong Hansheng's words, he didn't pay attention to it at all, just turned around and smiled and left a word of relief, and chased after him.

Then, he died.

Before he could get closer, there was a sudden burst of gunfire in the forest, and the dense firepower turned the head of the Maoshan faction into a sieve on the spot, and he didn't even have a chance to use the escape technique.

James ambushed a whole hundred people in the woods, and in addition to rifles, there was even a Maxim heavy machine gun!

And so the decisive battle ended.

Yu Xian Shan went crazy and wanted to rush forward to avenge his father, but fortunately, Yong Hansheng held him tightly, so he didn't become the second Maoshan Taoist priest to die under the guns of foreigners.

Several people snatched Yu Jihai's body, fled back to Maoshan, and sent a big funeral. Yu Xian Shan took all the disciples to swear in front of his father's grave that this revenge would be avenged! That night, Yu Xian Shan took all the disciples into the Golden Altar, but found that the church was empty, and only after asking someone to inquire did he know that after the decisive battle that day, James returned to the Golden Altar and left in a hurry with his things. Yu Xian Shan was not reconciled, and chased to the provincial capital, burned down all the churches in the provincial capital, and killed all the missionaries who stayed behind, but still did not catch James. This bishop is really empty, once he causes trouble, he immediately flees away, and he doesn't even stay in the provincial capital, and directly packs up his things and goes back to Beijing. Yu Xian Shan chased all the way for thousands of miles, during which he caught up with James several times, fought bloody battles, killed many bishops, archbishops and other senior missionaries, ordinary missionaries are even more innumerable, Maoshan disciples are also killed and wounded, the hatred between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper, but the James who caused a big disaster is still alive - after he fled to Beijing, he immediately packed up his things and went back to Europe, and his whereabouts have not been known since then.

But the blood feud between the Maoshan faction and the Holy See has been concluded, naturally it is impossible to stop, the two sides have been fighting for more than a year, although the Holy See is fighting in the away game, but the victory is strong, the Maoshan faction can not be defeated, deeply feel that the opponent is strong, and when the Songyan Taoist people raise righteousness, they will be the first to respond and join the Tongxin Society.
