Chapter 111: Bright Holy Sect
After Lu Yannan left, Long Ding and Xiao Ling stepped forward and untied Lu Shao's restricted acupoints.
Long Ding faced the people on the Liaoli cottage, and said loudly: "Your village master Lu Shao was originally a member of the righteous Danxia sect, broke into the Soul Devouring Demon Sect, and became the master of this cottage. Today is officially out of the Soul Eater Sect, if you don't want to follow, go down the mountain and leave!"
With the dragon's words, everyone looks at me, I look at you, and they talked to each other for a while, but no one had the intention of leaving.
This Liaoli cottage was originally a new force set up by the Soul Devouring Demon Sect, there are more than 100 people in the cottage, although Lu Shao has not been in the sect for a long time, but because of his strange kung fu and strong strength, he was arranged to come to this far place to lead the cottage. When Lu Shao first arrived, he only brought about 20 ordinary sect members.
It's just that when this land shook to the cottage, he raised the banner of 'bright and happy', and swept away the bullies and strong forces in the surrounding area one by one, collected a lot of money, and then recruited troops. In a few months, there were more than 100 cottages.
At this moment, among the more than 100 people, most of them are poor people, and they have come to this cottage to make ends meet. Since following Lu Shao, he has no worries about food and clothing. At this time, it doesn't matter if Lu Shao is a Soul Eater Sect, it is enough to be able to manage the warmth of the body.
Only the twenty or so Soul Eater Sect disciples were talking a lot at the moment, but they were thinking a lot. For a while, I was worried that the demon of the Soul Eater Sect would come to ask for the crime, and for a while, I was worried that Long Ding and the others would kill people and kill people.
After a while, a black-headed man stood up first and said loudly: "Follow the Lord of Lu Zhai to drink wine and eat meat, but I don't care about his Laoshizi Soul Devouring Sect, I will follow Lord Lu Zhai to drink wine and eat meat!"
With Zhang Mao's shout, the voice of response was endless for a while, and they all expressed their reluctance to leave. The two dozen or so Soul Eater Sect disciples did not leave, and a few of them had scruples in their hearts, but after a few days, they secretly left Liaoli Mountain. For these people, Long Ding and others did not delve into it.
Lu Shao then found a feng shui treasure in Liaoli Mountain and buried Lu Yanbei. Lu Yanbei's tomb was built very majestic, but there was a wordless monument in front of the tomb.
Lu Shao spent several days on end, only living with wine. All the big and small affairs in the cottage were handed over to Long Ding and Xiao Ling to take care of.
This dragon has always had no intention of managing these affairs, and everything is entrusted to Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling was in a hurry to find his eldest brother Lu Ping, and he didn't want this dragon to persuade him. It turned out that Lu Yao had already figured out that Lu Ping got along well with that Liang Jing in Changbai Mountain, and lived the life of a fairy couple, so there was no need to worry about his safety at all. On the contrary, it is this vast mountain, there are so many people, Lu Shao does not know how to manage, if he only relies on stealing, it may be difficult to maintain for a long time. Among the few people, Xiao Ling is knowledgeable and knows how to be in charge, but Xiao Ling needs to maintain large and small affairs.
When Xiao Ling first came, many people in the cottage were unconvinced. In order to establish his prestige, this Xiao Ling set up a challenge ring on the cottage. For three days in a row, the challengers couldn't make two or three moves under Xiao Ling. Only then did the crowd accept their disbelief.
One day, several people in the cottage were looking for fun. When I got to the bottom of the mountain, I robbed a rich merchant passing by. killed the man, took the money and the female dependents and escorted them back to the cottage.
Xiao Ling learned of this and was furious. When the leader was bound up, he gathered all the people of the cottage and beheaded him for public display. Then the participants were severely punished one by one. Bring back all the money and women who have been robbed.
After this day, Xiao Ling closed the door for two days, but he listed eight copycat iron laws and seventy-one detailed rules. and read it to the public, and those who violate it will be punished with death and labor at the least. For a while, everyone remembered that although there were complaints, they did not dare to disobey Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling studied poetry and books hard, and he had the heart to serve the country, but he was helplessly trapped in the situation and his ambitions were disappointed. This time I managed this cottage, but I didn't want to, and everything I learned could be used.
One day, Xiao Lingli and under the banner of the cottage, he saw the words 'bright and happy' on the banner that was erected. Xiao Ling suddenly remembered the content of a Manichaean classic "Praise of the Lower Part" that he had read.
The light is generally pure, and the joy is extinguished without moving the curse;
He has no trouble with joy, but there is no use in suffering.
Always be happy and bright, if you say that you are sick, it is useless.
If there are those who can live in other countries, they will be worry-free.
The place is pure, and all evil is not pure;
Happiness is full of Chang Kuantai, and there is no point in saying that there is Xiangling.
Reading this scripture, Xiao Ling thought of the history books and classics he had read. Throughout the ages, those who have achieved great things have made good signs and used ghosts and gods to take advantage of them, or they have taken faith as the basis and led the people by promoting their followers.
At this moment, facing this banner, Xiao Ling couldn't help but be proud, instead of lamenting that he was born at the wrong time and was bullied by the Yuan people, why not support himself and mobilize the people to take the world of the Mongolian Tatars.
As soon as the idea came true, Xiao Ling immediately went down the mountain to collect Manichaean classics everywhere, and then studied them.
Manichaeism was introduced to China during the Tang Dynasty and gradually developed later. At the heart of the Manichaean teachings is that at the beginning of the world, there were two kingdoms, light and darkness, with light occupying the north, east, and west, and darkness occupying the south. In the kingdom of light, there is light, goodness, peace, order, and purity. The ruler of the Kingdom of Light, Persia is called Chawan (meaning eternity), and Dongtu is called Ming Father, Great Ming Zun. The Dark Kingdom is full of fireworks, stuffiness, hurricanes, sludge, and poisonous water, and is ruled by the Dark Lord, where five types of demons live, indulging in lust and quarrels all day long. Light and darkness have fought several times, and the Dark Lord has made demons give birth to human ancestors. Because humans are the descendants of the demons of darkness, the Great Ming Zun sent the messenger of light to save the souls of mankind with the light molecules.
After Manichaeism was introduced to China, it developed in a folk mixture of Taoism, Buddhism, and White Lotus. Gradually, it has its own characteristics. After Xiao Ling studied Manichaeism, he had a plan in his heart, and immediately called Lu Shao, Long Ding, and several big and small leaders to discuss.
Several people gathered in the cottage hall, and Xiao Ling was the first to speak: "The Liaoli Cottage was originally a Soul Eater Demon Sect force, and we have privately separated from the Soul Eater Sect force this time. It won't be long before the members of the Dreadbook Cult come to ask for their guilt. When the time comes, everyone will have a way to resist. ”
Long Ding continued: "Now the main forces of the Soul Devouring Demon Sect are all fighting against the various factions of the Central Plains Martial Arts, and they have not yet cared about the development of small forces like Liaoli Mountain. But acting in the Demon Sect is not unreasonable. We need to be prepared, and it is best to get in touch with the various sects of the righteous path, and then lead everyone to choose another place and set up their own doors. ”
When Lu Shao heard this, he said: "This plan doesn't work, most of the brothers here are nearby villagers. If they are allowed to go elsewhere, most of them will not follow. If we disband, we are afraid that the demons will come, and we will blame the villagers here. The best thing is to try to resist the attack of the Demon Cult here. ”
Xiao Ling nodded: "The Soul Eater Demon Sect is powerful, and our strength is small. But they don't have time to take care of us for the time being. Why don't we take this opportunity to recruit a wide range of people and exaggerate our power with this place as the center? Not to mention the Soul Devouring Demon Sect at that time, even the Yuan Emperor will not be afraid. ”
Yue Long, who was in charge of logistics among the small leaders, continued: "The food reserves of our cottage are only enough for one year at present, and if we add more manpower, I am afraid it will not last long." ”
Xiao Ling smiled: "To expand your power, you don't have to call people to come to this cottage. I have a way to make all the people in the world who have a heart come to my use. ”
Xiao Ling said to Guan Lihai, the leader of the management of personnel: "How many literate people are there in the cottage?"
Guan Lihai replied: "There are a total of 157 ordinary minions in the cottage, and only 15 are literate. ”
Xiao Ling said: "Tomorrow, I will gather these fifteen people, I will be of great use." ”
Guan Lihai responded, and Xiao Ling said to everyone again: "Since we have broken away from the Soul Devouring Demon Sect, the name of this vast mountain needs to be changed. We take Guangming and Changle as the name, it is better to change this vast mountain into a bright mountain. We are not mountain bandits and bullies, we need to have a title outside, and in the future, we will be in the name of the Bright Sect, and the people of the Bright Mountain will act in the name of the Bright Sect outside. What do you think?"
Lu Shao, Long Ding immediately agreed, although the other leaders did not know what Xiao Ling meant. But seeing that Lu Shao and the others had no objections, they should also come down.
Since this day, the name of the mountain has been re-established here, the banner has been changed, and the Guangming Sect with the name of Guangming Changle was born on the rivers and lakes. The name of the Guangming Sect of Guangming Mountain gradually spread outward.
Xiao Ling summoned fifteen literate people to one room, but it took half a month to preach the Manichaean teachings and allusions in detail. Then he commanded them to impose their memories and repeat them until the teachings of Namanichaeism were deeply rooted in their hearts and the stories could be told casually.
During this period, Xiao Ling changed the martial arts methods of various factions that he learned in the Great Song Dynasty Secret Library, creating a unique mental method. And named after the 'Bright Heart Method'. It is easy to get started, but it takes a lot of perseverance and effort to cultivate it to the depths. However, for ordinary people, the temptation to obtain a complete set of cultivation methods is extremely great.
Xiao Ling also taught this mental method to these fifteen people, and then sent these fifteen sect members down the mountain to various villages to teach the teachings and stories of the Light Sect. In the beginning, in order to attract the interest of ordinary people, they often attracted the audience by giving money and food and performing acrobatics. However, after just over a month, the people often consciously came to participate in these activities, and took the initiative to become followers of the Bright Sect and learn the Bright Heart Method.
Xiao Ling made people build a large hall on Guangming Mountain, built a great Ming respect, and accepted incense offerings. and appointed himself the messenger of Mingzun, and preached the doctrine in the Temple of Light from time to time.
Over the course of a few months, the Illuminati Cult expanded rapidly in this area, and the number of believers increased day by day. And it continues to spread outward, reaching deep into the poor people.
