Chapter 72: Outstanding achievements, heard by the heavens!
Lu Gang glanced sideways: "Tell me about it."
Xu Zishuai is a frivolous person who likes to show off and hang out with women, but he does have a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
Every year when celebrating Master and his wife’s birthdays, we always come up with something new to make everyone happy.
"Two days ago, I received a bounty from the government, saying that there was a bandit camp 120 miles east of Pingyang Town, with more than 20 people. Since Junior Brother Liang was about to break through the barrier, I was not in a hurry to go. I thought I would take him to see blood after Junior Brother Liang broke through the barrier."
Liang Qu looked up in surprise, not expecting that there was something about him in it.
Xiang Changsong's face was bitter. "Senior Brother Xu loves to do this the most, taking new junior brothers to see blood. I was taken by Senior Brother Xu to wipe out a bandit den three hundred miles away. After I came back, I was immediately shaken for a long time. I was tired and nauseous, and I almost vomited."
After a pause, he leaned close to Liang Qu's ear and whispered in front of everyone: "I heard that Fifth Senior Sister was also taken away and cried loudly after returning. Senior Brother Xu was punished by Master to be grounded for a month."
"Ahem, what are you talking about? I am doing this for your own good." Xu Zishuai clenched his fist and coughed. "As a warrior, how can you be called a warrior if you have never seen blood? Master always says that warriors use martial arts to seize life."
"Don't talk nonsense, keep talking."
"My idea is, since the mountain ghost in the river god sacrifice can be attracted by human presence and the smell of blood of large livestock, can we continue to do the same.
Bring that gang of bandits here. They're all desperate criminals who rape and plunder. The government wants their heads. We can perform a blood sacrifice on the spot. Maybe that will lure the snakes out of their hole. Human blood is much stronger than animal blood and is the most attractive to mountain spirits and ghosts.
Whenever the mountain ghost appears, we have a clue as to where it will go and what it will do.
If they have been trained, they will naturally find their nest by following them. If not, then there must be someone watching nearby. If no one is watching and they have not been trained, then it proves that we are being too self-indulgent and thinking too much, what do you think?"
"Where will the blood sacrifice take place?"
"Fahua Temple! My intuition tells me that the dilapidated temple is not ordinary. The mountain ghost also disappeared there. Let's assume that the target is it!"
Everyone present fell into deep thought.
Hu Qi asked first: "The bandits are a hundred miles away, aren't they too far? For the blood sacrifice to be effective, we need at least a dozen people, right?"
"That's right, but there's still plenty of time. Judging from the time Master left, if Shuimu Sect really wants to take action, they'll have to wait until Master's troubles get intense and he can't get away. In this case, there should be about three or four days of buffer time, which is enough."
Xu Zishuai's words sounded somewhat unfilial, as if he didn't care about Master Yang's safety at all.
But in fact, if Yang Dongxiong, a great tiger hunter, really encountered trouble, they could only watch helplessly, and it would be best not to make things worse.
Furthermore, they have faith in their Master.
Although the tiger is old, its power remains!
Seeing that everyone was still in deep thought, Xu Zishuai said, "You don't have any other good ideas anyway, right? We are warriors, not secret agents. We are not good at investigating cases by unraveling the mystery.
In short, my suggestion is to be simple and rough. Otherwise, if they really succeed, at least hundreds of people will die. How can we live like this?"
The death of hundreds of people was definitely a huge blow to the prestige of local tyrants.
The most powerful one is the Yang family martial arts school.
In addition, a large number of people will leave their hometowns. Pingyang Town has been developing for so many years, but it has fallen short and all its assets have been destroyed.
"Then we'll do as you say." Lu Gang made the decision. "As for Yixing City, it's getting late. Tomorrow I'll go find two warriors I know and have them stay there for a while. This way, it won't arouse too much suspicion from the outside world, and it can also be considered an explanation to those village elders."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu."
Lu Gang's actions can be said to have given Liang Qu, who came to ask for help, both substance and face. "Brother Lu, please take care of it! But you have to find someone to go with me. There are so many bandits, all alive, I am afraid I can't handle it all by myself."
"Junior Brother Liang's spiritual weapon will be forged in the next two days. I will stay to watch it, and he also needs to stay to bleed and shape his spirit. Junior Brother Xiang's strength is a little weaker, he is only at the third level, so he is not strong enough to guard the martial arts hall, so let him go with you."
Xiang Changsong quickly stated: "I have no problem."
"Well, please, Junior Brother Xu and Junior Brother Xiang, if the Shuimu Sect story is true, we have successfully strangled it in the cradle. Regardless of whether the county magistrate is real or fake, and whether he has colluded with the Shuimu Sect, we will definitely receive generous rewards from the court, and it is possible that our story will even reach the ears of the emperor."
The ears of heaven reach up to heaven!
Everyone present was excited when they heard this, because this was really possible!
The last time the Shuimu Sect appeared, Taizu was furious and blood flowed everywhere.
The scale of this incident may not be as large as the last one, but with the added blessing of the aura of Taizu's wrath last time, the nature is still very bad and worthy of the court's attention, and the reward will certainly not be stingy.
Although saving Pingyang Town and several surrounding villages was basically out of the brothers' inner sense of morality, they did not want to see their hometown devastated and turned into a living hell, with their familiar friends and relatives threatened with their lives, so it would be best if they could get rewards while doing their job.
Liang Qu sat among the crowd with mixed feelings.
When he met a mountain ghost in Yixing City, he joked that it seemed like he was doing aquaculture wholesale. Unexpectedly, his words came true. It really was aquaculture wholesale!
The feed is a bit useless.
A hundred people raise a galloping horse martial artist, which is like draining the pond to catch fish.
This is equivalent to cutting off logistics during a battle, forcing soldiers to fight with their backs against the wall, or even killing soldiers' horses. It would only happen to an organization like the Shuimu Sect that is reckless and only wants to take revenge on the Dashun Sect.
After all, they are a group of old people. They feel that they have been deprived of their privileges, so it is not surprising that they do things that anger God and people.
After the discussion, Xiang Changsong and Xu Zishuai did not delay and went to Yang's house to borrow horses, and rushed to the bandit camp overnight.
A hundred miles is not a short distance. Twenty people have to hire a horse-drawn carriage to bring the goods back. They have to hurry and go back quickly, trying to compress the time within two days.
Lu Gang stood up and said, "The progress of the spiritual weapon forging is faster than I thought. Junior Brother Liang, please come to my house at noon tomorrow. I need the fresh blood of the weapon master to shape the spiritual weapon."
Liang Qu nodded. He knew that there was such a process in forging spiritual weapons. The blood of the weapon master was sprinkled on the casting to shape the "nature" of the spiritual weapon.
This method is not the traditional sense of recognizing the master, there is no such thing.
Spiritual soldiers are spiritual. Since they are spiritual, they have temperament. People with explosive tempers use explosive soldiers, and people with gentle tempers use gentle soldiers.
The personalities are compatible, so using it is as natural as using one's own arm.
If the personalities are not compatible, it is not a problem. It does not affect the quality of the weapon. It just makes it less convenient to use martial arts moves.
By adding the blood of the Lord of Arms during the casting process, the two sexes can be similar. In the future, unless the Lord of Arms encounters any major changes or his temperament changes drastically, the effect will always be that the two sexes are compatible.
After all the brothers left, Hu Qi asked Liang Qu not to leave. When he came back, he was holding a short stick and a booklet in his hands.
"Junior Brother Liang, this bow power method is a method of circulating Qi, blood and power. Once you learn it, the power will be released just like releasing an arrow from a bow. It is very suitable for your bones. When combined with the ape fist, it is three times more powerful. Read it once, memorize it and start practicing."
The seniors and juniors all have things to do, and Hu Qi also has to give special training to his juniors.
If there is a conflict with the Shuimu Sect, Liang Qu will inevitably be implicated, and his combat effectiveness must be improved as soon as possible to protect himself.
