Cyber Daming

Chapter 558 Gezaodao City

Concubine Yuan Ming proposed that Yiyang and Guixi should not be touched for the time being. Li Jun naturally knew the considerations behind it.

In the battle with Longhu Mountain, our side seems to be taking the initiative. We have uprooted Taoist palaces in several counties and slapped Zhang Chongyuan several times.

But in fact, our current situation has become increasingly difficult.

The first is that the possibility of whereabouts being exposed is increasing.

Although there are ink weapons provided by Tianque to shield the heavenly orbit magic weapon above the head, it is pure nonsense to say that Longhu Mountain really has no way to deal with these ink weapons. Otherwise, Mo Xu would not be reduced to his current bleak status. .

The reason why we can still hide for the time being is most likely because the flies and dogs inside the Taoist gate are constraining each other.

As a result, Zhang Chongyuan would rather break his teeth and swallow blood and continue to grind it down slowly with himself than cut off his flesh and feed it to other Taoist forces.

But this stalemate will never last long, and Zhang Chongyuan will lose his temper sooner or later.

By then, our side has lost the advantage of "the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark", and what we will face is a vast ocean composed of millions of Longhu Mountain fanatics in Guangxin Mansion.

No one will be able to leave alive by then.

On the other hand, as our attack targets decrease, Longhu Mountain's defense focus will also shrink.

What is important in guerrilla warfare is to be "quick, accurate and ruthless". When things are done, you can get away from it and catch your opponent off guard.

But if we continue to take action now, we will attack the city and have a head-on confrontation with Longhu Mountain.

Of course, Li Junda could choose to come back and attack places like Yongfeng and Shangrao again, but now there are only some insignificant Taoist disciples organizing and rebuilding in those places, so it doesn't make much sense at all.

After all, the wrongdoer has his own owner, and Li Jun has no interest in such things as indiscriminate killing.

"Yiyang and Guixi are not far apart. Whether we make a desperate move to attack Yiyang, or go out of our way to cause trouble in Guixi where Longhu Mountain Gate is located, there is no possibility of making a time difference and the effect of a surprise attack is lost. "

Yuan Mingfei said seriously: "And judging from what we experienced in Shangrao, once we are trapped in a tight siege, only you can escape with confidence, and the rest of us can't."

"Is there an ambush from Dao San of the 'Xi' generation in Shangrao?" Li Jun asked in surprise.

According to the information provided by Zhao Yanlong, the person stationed in Shangrao was only Yang Zong, the chief officer of one of the nine divisions of Dragon and Tiger, the "Doubu", and he was just an ordinary Daosi.

The only thing worth noting is that before he went down the mountain, Zhang Chongyuan temporarily granted him the status of the Supervisor of the Tianshi Mansion's Promotion Department, which was clearly used to lure the enemy.

In Li Jun's view, even if Chen Qisheng's condition is not right now, he cannot accurately judge the situation and risks and is prone to act impulsively. But as long as Concubine Yuan Ming is by her side, she will not take action rashly.

This was also the reason why he decided to postpone the Hanshan Temple matter and let Yuan Mingfei come to Jiangxi Province.

But after everyone met at Qingping Taoist Temple as planned, Shen Li, who was chased by several Taoist priests and bombarded, was still alive and kicking. However, Chen Qisheng, who was not inferior to Shen Li in strength, was beaten unconscious and was beaten by Fan Wujiu. Carry it back.

This was something Li Jun didn't expect.

"There is no Dao San in Shangrao, but there are more people at the level of directors of the Nine Dragon and Tiger Departments than Yongfeng ambushed."

Concubine Yuan Ming held the long and narrow pipe, took a leisurely puff, and said calmly: "Chen Qisheng's brain became confused as soon as he saw Yang Zong. He didn't know how to imitate Shen Li and run away, blushing. He rushed forward with his eyes open, and Chang Jun was so frightened that he cried for his father and mother, but could not stop him. "

"Sister Yuan, you can't blame me for this. You may not look at me on the outside, but I'm a tough man on the inside. I've always been a master who doesn't give in when fighting in Mo Xu, even if I can't win. Then you have to spit on the other person’s face before you stop.”

A long sword hovered next to Yuan Mingfei's overlapping long legs. Chang Jun's wretched figure squatted on the tip of the sword, reaching out to grab his greasy hair, his tone was helpless.

"But this kid is completely crazy now. There is a huge group of people opposite. They are obviously prepared and waiting for us to show up. As a result, Chen Qisheng didn't say a word, and he wanted to risk his life with others if he caught me. Do you think this is life-threatening? It’s obviously death-defying.”

"Changjun, if your eyes keep looking at places they shouldn't be, I'll be careful that I bend your body."

"Okay."

Chang Jun responded obediently, moved his steps and squatted next to Li Jun, and said to himself in a voice as faint as a mosquito: "What kind of sex is this? I didn't see clearly."

He is worthy of being a die-hard supporter of Lord Ma. He is better than his master.

Li Jun twitched the corner of his mouth fiercely, raised his hand to rub his head and eyebrows, and asked: "How did you escape, Old Chen?"

"Master Li Xin, have you forgotten me?"

The cigarette rod lightly clicked on the steps. Yuan Mingfei looked sideways, squinted her phoenix eyes and said with a smile: "Who are you looking down on?"

Li Jun stood in awe, cupped his hands and clasped his fists: "Didn't you ask for advice?"

"Stop learning these slick tricks from these bastards."

Concubine Yuan Ming rolled her eyes: "I will definitely not be able to defeat those stinky bull noses, but it is still possible to spread the Buddha Kingdom to block them for a while and run away with Chen Qisheng."

"Sister Yuan, you really hide everything."

"No leaks?"

Concubine Yuan Ming's face was full of doubts, and she lowered her eyes, "If I can't do this, how old should I be before I can be called leaky?"

Li Jun was stunned in place as if he was struck by lightning.

"Hahahahaha."

Yuan Mingfei laughed so hard that her body shook. She joked, "You are still a little too young."

Li Jun ignored the woman's teasing, stared at the other's faintly blue face, and slowly frowned: "Are you injured?"

"Don't worry, it's just a minor injury, it won't kill anyone."

Yuan Mingfei said in a relaxed tone: "The Buddhist order and the Taoist order have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years. They know each other well. As soon as they raised their beards, I knew what talismans they were going to take out, and I had been on guard for a long time."

"That's good."

Li Jun didn't get to the bottom of it, just nodded and said, "After solving these things in front of us, we will accompany you to visit the foreign land."

Yuan Mingfei blinked and smiled, "Why, are you going to help me? That's great, you don't know how long I have been waiting for this day."

This sentence seemed to be a joke, but Li Jun heard a little trembling, and his heart sank for no reason.

Whenever she mentioned her past experiences, Yuan Mingfei always spoke in a relaxed tone, even passing it over in one sentence, and Li Jun never asked about it.

Even Yuan Mingfei's current strength was very different from that in Chongqing Prefecture, and also very different from the Japanese period, but he never asked about it.

He didn't ask, just out of trust and respect.

It didn't mean that Li Jun didn't remember the meaning of the word "Mingfei" in the Buddhist preface of the foreign land, nor did it mean that he didn't care about the painful experience that Yuan Mingfei had mentioned in a few words.

"Then you must lead the way well, don't forget some people and some places."

"I can find every temple and every road in the foreign land with my eyes closed."

Yuan Mingfei pursed her lips and said: "What I am afraid of is that they have forgotten that there was a person named Yuan Mingfei and what happened to her."

"If they forget, I will help them remember."

Li Jun said calmly: "After being punched, people will be more likely to remember some things that they ignored before."

"My reputation in the foreign land will get worse and worse from now on."

Yuan Mingfei smiled happily, pointing to her nose and said: "There is no Buddha in the world who is poked in the back every day. It seems that I will be the first one."

"You treat yourself as your own Buddha, why do you care so much about them?"

Li Jun took the pipe from Yuan Mingfei's hand and stood up.

"Stay here and take care of your wounds. Watch them."

Yuan Mingfei was stunned: "Where are you going?"

"I finally came to Jiangxi and saw Longhu, but I haven't seen Gezhao yet. I have some old friends there, I have to go see them."

Yuan Mingfei said anxiously: "To provoke Gezhao Mountain now will only make us attacked from all sides."

"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is tired, we harass. The more chaotic the better in guerrilla warfare, why should we be afraid of being attacked from all sides?"

Li Jun said without turning his head: "Doesn't the Tianshi Mansion want to wait for the rabbit? Then lure them out and fight!"

Yuanzhou Prefecture, Fenyi County.

Li Jun's first impression of this county was prosperity. It was densely populated, far better than Guangxin Prefecture in Longhu Mountain.

Li Jun, who changed into a green robe, wore a Hunyuan scarf, and dressed up as a wandering Taoist, except for the messy dust on the bottom of his robe, he did not attract attention among the people passing by. He looked at the "Tao City" under the rule of Gezhao Mountain at will.

At this moment, the sky is dark. The lights in the city are not the dazzling neon lights in the basic plate of Confucianism. There are no wine shops and nightclubs for indulgence, but there is no lack of voices and noise in the streets.

In the halo of the street lamps on the roadside, the Taoist classics with long and graceful strokes emerge one by one. You can see a few men and women Taoists gathered together to discuss scriptures and Taoism, with a calm tone and gentle smiles.

There is a vendor carrying a bundle of black wood, holding a sign in his hand that reads "Natural Lightning Wood for Sale", but he is wearing a neat cotton Taoist robe.

There are young Taoist children holding boxes that are almost as tall as themselves, begging for alms everywhere, and the cuffs and hems of their robes are embroidered with the words "Fenyi Zhiyi Office".

Looking around, crowded Taoist temples can be seen everywhere on both sides of the street.

It happened that the owner of a temple was sending believers out of the door after the evening class. He handed a peach branch that should have withered in this season but was in full bloom at this moment to the other party and bowed.

"Ge Zu Wuliang, please forgive my sins."

There were many believers sitting cross-legged on the ground in the streets and alleys.

Li Jun stopped and stared for a moment. The other party did not react at all. There was clearly no wire behind his head, but he seemed to have entered a state of meditation and was swimming in the Taoism.

Before he finished walking a street, Li Jun's heart was already full of strangeness and weirdness.

The people passing by, whether men, women, old or young, all had humble and peaceful smiles on their faces, and they were wearing the same Taoist robes. It was impossible to tell whether they were rich or poor, noble or humble.

The most common words heard in my ears were the four words "Ge Zu Wuliang".

Whether it was an acquaintance meeting or a stranger meeting for the first time, even if it was a Taoist couple with an intimate demeanor, "Ge Zu" would always come first.

As for who Ge Zu was?

The founder of Gezhao Mountain.

Li Jun had never seen such a pious and creepy scene, even in Guangxin Prefecture.

But in Yuanzhou Prefecture, everyone seemed to be accustomed to it, and the complicated etiquette had already penetrated into their bones.

Fanaticism.

This was Li Jun's second impression of this "Tao City".

Dong!

A melodious sound of copper chimes came from the Taoist temple in the center of the city, interrupting the debate between men and women under the street lights. The hawker selling lightning-struck wood put down his sign and raised his head. The running Taoist boy stumbled, and the believers in meditation under the eaves suddenly opened their eyes.

Li Jun stopped with the flow of people, the strength in his body slowly flowing, ready to attack and kill at any time.

"Ge Zu Wuliang, the Ge Zao petition in September of the twelfth year of Jiaqi has been issued. All believers can connect to the Ge Zao Cave Heaven, or come forward to get the document for reading."

Teams of stiff-faced yellow turban warriors walked out of the Taoist palace, holding stacks of paper documents that were quite rare in this era.

The owner of the Jingshe, who was chatting with a familiar customer, did not bother to continue the greetings, and quickly approached the yellow turban warriors, raised his hands above his head, and respectfully took a document from the other party.

The people around him did the same as him, rubbing shoulders and squeezing forward, and the expressions on their faces were a bit human at this time.

Li Jun mixed in the crowd and got a copy.

The yellow paper was written in red ink, and the beginning was the eight big characters "Ge Zu Wuliang, Ge Zao Yongxing", which occupied a whole page.

Li Jun raised his hand to turn it over, but the following content made him frown.

[The remaining poison of Confucianism has been eliminated, and the Taoist temple has given alms to the masses. ]

The content under the title is complicated, the words are difficult to pronounce, and most of them are useless prayers.

Li Jun pursed his lips and forced himself to finish reading, and roughly understood the meaning.

At present, the entire Yuanzhou Prefecture has completely abolished various systems and facilities of the former court, including treasure notes, government offices, garrisons, Confucius Temple, etc. All rights have been taken back by the Taoist temple, and all matters are managed by the Taoist officials sent from Ge Zao Mountain.

This is not much different from Guangxin Prefecture under the jurisdiction of Longhu Mountain. The difference is that Ge Zao Mountain's measures are more complete and detailed.

Formulate and promulgate the "Ge Zao Mountain Taoist Law", strictly prohibiting Taoist officials from plundering the wealth of Taoist people in the jurisdiction, and not affecting the Taoist people's life and cultivation. It is strictly forbidden for Taoist officials and Taoist people to practice Huangchi without authorization, and not to shake the foundation of Taoism.

The jurisdiction prohibits Confucian robes and barbarian clothes, and all officials and civilians wear robes, and no noble or humble. The number of people entering Taoism is the main indicator for the dispatched Taoist officials to conduct annual assessments.

If a local resident commits a crime, the Taoist Palace will grant him up to three grace opportunities depending on the severity of the crime. Among them, making irresponsible remarks about "Ge Zu" and betraying the Gezhao Mountain Gate are unforgivable crimes, and the person will be stripped of his current body and his consciousness will be put into the "Fengdu" cave.

Disrespecting the local resident is the second most serious crime, and the person will be deprived of the opportunity to enter the Tao in this life. His descendants will bear the consequences and will be forgiven by the Yellow Turban for three generations.

Anyone who performs well can enter the Gezhao Cave for free to realize the Tao and practice, and the length of time is determined by the merit.

There are dozens of densely packed clauses, and Li Jun really doesn't have the patience to read them one by one.

In Li Jun's opinion, it can be summed up in one sentence: "Only after entering the Tao can you have the opportunity to speak, and if you don't enter the Tao, you can only be obedient."

After removing this layer of Taoist clothes, the flesh and blood exposed are not much different from the Confucian order, and are even more brutal and direct.

Li Jun continued to flip back, and the title that caught his eye finally made him a little interested.

[The New Donglin Party suffered a setback in the Fandi area, and the internal strife of the Ming Dynasty Buddhist Order gradually arose]

The author briefly mentioned the Liaodong incident, but only explained that this incident was the fuse. The New Donglin Party sent an inspection team to the Fandi area in the name of the Ming Dynasty court, under the pretext of investigating the real culprit who attacked the Liaodong Province.

In the memorial, there was also a photo of the leader. Li Jun did not recognize the old man on it, but the note below made him raise his eyebrows.

Liu Jinxun, a member of the cabinet of the Ming Empire and the head of the Jinling Liu family.

The following text is no longer as literary as the previous one, and there is a sarcastic and mocking taste between the lines.

After entering the Fandi area, Liu Jinxun and others were attacked by a large number of unidentified bandits. Judging from their ability characteristics, there were Han Buddhism, Confucianism, military, agriculture, and even martial arts.

Among them, the only one was that there was no power in any party in the Fandi area.

Although there were not many casualties, Liu Jinxun was still blocked at the border of the Fandi area and could not take a step for half a month.

In order to take care of the wealth gap between believers under its jurisdiction, this kind of memorial issued by Gezao Mountain highlights a combination of pictures and texts, and the reading experience is not much worse than electronic documents.

Li Jun read it with great interest, but there are many interspersed comments that make him feel annoyed. They are all analyzing how believers should unite against the enemy and work together if Ruxu tries to enter the territory of Yuanzhou Prefecture.

Li Jun skipped these nonsense and moved his eyes downward. A circle drawn by a red pen jumped into his eyes, and then the development of the situation began to take a turn.

First, a name named Zhang Siyuan began to appear frequently, killing all the attacking bandits.

Then the Buddhist forces in the two major foreign lands of Dazhao and Baima took the initiative to send reinforcements and proposed to escort Liu Jinxun into the foreign land.

Even Sangyan Temple expressed a similar meaning, but was directly ignored by Liu Jinxun, who looked like he wanted to put all the blame on Sangyan.

Liu Jinxun changed his previous cautious style and showed his iron-blooded and tough side. Everything and the temples under Sangyan's command did not escape his investigation. He cut down mountains and destroyed temples along the way. Three Buddhas Five and one Buddha Four died under his knife one after another.

Although Sangyan Temple was very dissatisfied, Liu Jinxun shut his mouth with a sentence of "disrespecting the court officials".

People are already dead. Is it really contempt? How contemptuous is it? Is it less kowtow or less smile? Who can tell clearly?

The memorial did not expand on Liu Jinxun's affairs in the foreign land. Instead, it used a lot of words to describe the tyranny of Confucianism and the insidiousness of Buddhism in this matter.

The ending is naturally inevitable. There is another long paragraph praising Ge Zu and advocating hatred of Confucianism and Buddhism.

As for the "new policy" behind the whole thing, there is no mention.

Li Jun closed the text in his hand, and the stagnant crowd around him gradually began to move. The Taoists excitedly discussed the contents of the petition, but almost all of them revolved around the "Taoist Palace".

As for the subsequent mention of "foreign land", most of them just gritted their teeth and cursed "Ge Zu's divine power, who dares to offend" and no one said anything else.

Li Jun stuffed the text in his hand into his arms and was about to step towards the Taoist Palace, but suddenly a soft voice sounded in his ears.

"Ge Zu Wuliang, Taoist friend, please stay."
