Chapter 114 The ruthless character"Sir! The title 'Taoist' cannot be used casually!" Guan Shan said to Shi Feizhe while eating noodles.
He was confused by what Shi Feizhe said and didn't know how to address Shi Feizhe. For the sake of the meal, he called Shi Feizhe "Your Excellency".
"What's wrong? Is it illegal to call yourself a 'Taoist'?" Shi Feizhe asked in confusion.
After all, he seldom sees people who call themselves Taoists. Most of them are bald donkeys on the streets.
"Hey~ What's the law? Where is the law now? Who takes the law seriously?" Guan Shan took a bite of duck leg and a bite of noodles, and added garlic. It tasted so delicious!
He continued, "But rules are important! If you don't follow the law, you're not taken seriously. If you don't follow the rules, something bad will happen!"
"Oh?" Shi Feizhe motioned for him to continue.
“Anyone who dares to call himself a Taoist priest all has a background. For example, there are the True Dragon Sect, the Huangtian Sect, the Ascension Sect, the Extreme Immortal Sect, and the Medical Gu Sect. Ordinary people who call themselves Taoist priests will be interrogated when they meet them to find out who their master is.” Guan Shan is a Jiang Laohu, and he knows a lot about these things.
"If someone hesitates during interrogation, I will kill him. If the person I am interrogating is not a fellow practitioner, I will also kill him!" He said as he threw a mouthful of garlic into his mouth.
"...So cruel?" Shi Feizhe really didn't know that the Taoism in this world was like this.
Recalling carefully, the guy from the Dao of Ascension seemed to be the demon who killed the Dao of True Dragon.
The Taoist killing another Taoist seemed to be in line with what Guanshan said.
"So the most dangerous person in the martial arts world is a Taoist priest walking alone!" Guan Shan said, "It's a pity that Taoist priests have very high requirements for accepting disciples. Some of them will be chopped down after they become disciples. It's really not worth it!"
"So there is such a saying!" Shi Feizhe nodded.
How come this guy is a rookie in the world?
Guan Shan ate noodles and muttered to himself, he looked unreliable!
"Dean Shi, please call me Dean Shi from now on!" Shi Feizhe said to Guan Shan.
"Okay, Dean Shi!"
"Are you full?" Shi Feizhe saw Guan Shan finish eating and said, "If you're not full, give me two more bowls!"
"Well... two more bowls would be fine!" Guan Shan said, touching his stomach.
"With your physique and cultivation level, there should be many sects and forces that want to recruit you, right?" Shi Feizhe continued.
"Dean Shi won't chase me away because I have a big appetite!" Guan Shan said sharply.
"That's not the case. It's just a few bowls of noodles. It's much cheaper than the stuff in Mobei town." Shi Feizhe shook his head.
The prices in that awesome place are outrageous!
"I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Dean Shi. I feel like I'm a bit unlucky on my martial arts journey!" Guan Shan sighed and said with a frown:
"When I was young, I joined Cuiping Hall and started to learn martial arts. Not long after, Cuiping Hall was destroyed by Polang Gang. I was still young, and I became a member of Polang Gang without knowing it."
"I joined the Polang Gang, but within half a decade, the Polang Gang was swallowed up by the Jinshi League. The Jinshi League was later destroyed by the Fenglei Hall. The Fenglei Hall was in turn destroyed by the Songfeng Sect."
"Songfeng Sect, Iron Palm Gang, Plum Blossom Villa, Yougu Sect... and finally the Holy Church of Light."
"I have changed many sects in the past ten years, but I can't find anyone to be loyal to!" Guan Shan said angrily: "My name has spread all over Luoyang, but no sect or gang dares to accept me!"
"They even tried to send me to their mortal enemy gang!"
"..."
Shi Feizhe wanted to laugh when he heard Guan Shan calling out the names of a dozen forces in a row as if he was calling out the names of dishes.
Guan Shan is such an unlucky guy!
"Dean Shi, you won't dislike me, will you?" Guan Shan said as he finished two bowls of noodles.
Anyway, he was full, so even if Shi Feizhe despised him, he had gained enough today.
"No! How could that be?" Shi Feizhe said with a nonchalant smile: "The sect I used to be in no longer exists! We are the same! Who would want to be a lone warrior when there is a big sect protecting them!"
"Was it also swallowed up by someone?" Guan Shan asked. "No, it was after the two masters suddenly went crazy that the sect was wiped out by internal fighting!" Shi Feizhe stood up to pay the bill.
Why did the leader go crazy?
Why do sects fight among themselves?
Will the fight still end?
Why didn’t the person in front of me die in the internal fighting within the sect?
In just a short moment, the sharp-eyed Guan Shan thought of these questions.
He looked at Shi Feizhe who stood up to pay the bill and discussed with the shopkeeper whether he could get a discount.
Is this person a tough guy?
It doesn’t look like it!
After dinner, Shi Feizhe and Guan Shan went to the Luoyang Book Fair.
He came to Luoyang for two main reasons: one was to see if there were any other versions of the True Source Sword Finger Technique, and the other was to sell the swords in his hands for start-up capital.
Guan Shan grew up in Luoyang. He could navigate the terrain of Luoyang with his eyes closed, so he led the way in front.
The buildings in Luoyang that we saw along the way were magnificent. The temples, towers, pavilions, were all meticulously carved, and some temples were even resplendent in gold and jade.
The Luo River meanders like a jade belt, with several bridges spanning the river, whose reflections are reflected in the water, creating shimmering waves and a unique charm.
The market the two passed by was filled with a wide variety of goods and was crowded with merchants. Silk, porcelain, spices and other goods were traded here, and the sounds of hawking and bargaining were one after another, which was a feast for the eyes.
It is worthy of being the heart of Kyushu and a famous city in the world!
It is several times more prosperous than Yiyang City and Qiuyang City. No wonder there are three real people in charge of the city!
When he was almost at the book market, Shi Feizhe saw a group of people wearing white robes embroidered with gorgeous cross symbols and patterns.
They had big beards, pointed white hats on their heads, held silver candlesticks in their hands, and chanted scriptures, with burning candles above the candlesticks.
Some people followed behind them, also reciting scriptures, saying, "Lord, forgive me!"
When Shi Feizhe saw this, he guessed that it was a sect.
If he had just come down the mountain, he might have killed these scammers with one sword.
But he encountered too many sects like this along the way, such as the White Lotus Sect, the Yihe Sect, the Jade Emperor Sect, the Maitreya Sect, and many others, all of which were sects rooted in the grassroots.
Everyone will encounter difficulties in their life, and after getting hurt, they will become confused.
Why Do People Suffer?
Why is my life like this?
Why are others living well while I am suffering?
Most of the rich people in the Jianghu believe in Buddha to make up for their spiritual emptiness. The middle and high-level martial artists in the Jianghu each have their own ancestors and inheritance to understand pain and confusion.
So what about the lower class people in the underworld?
They have no money, suffer more and are more confused than the rich and powerful. They need something to numb and relieve their spirits.
This is the soil in which these sects survive!
The poorer these middle and lower class people are, the more they are sucked dry by these sects, the harder their lives are, and the easier it is for them to be controlled by these sects.
In the end, I got nothing and became more and more miserable.
This is exactly what the sect needs. The more miserable the members are, the easier they are to control.
Believers are happy every day, how can we control it?
Therefore, the solution to the problem of sects lies in the overall environment of the underworld.
Otherwise, if this kind of sect kills one batch, there will always be another batch, which is even more like leeks!
"Here! He knows the whereabouts of the saint!" Among the group of people in white robes, someone saw Guan Shan and suddenly said.
Religion is a spiritual paralyzer.
