Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

For Meng Zhao, there are not many so-called major forces in Lingwu City who can talk to him or even become his opponents. Even the so-called three major families are not considered by him if they do not have the strength of a master.

But Pudu Cult is different. This is an extremely mysterious and powerful force. The leader is a powerful master. Each of the four Dharma Kings under him are innate extreme masters. He has fought against three of them. At the same time, he has also defeated these three. When people are severely injured, it can be said that they form sworn enemies.

Not only that, this Pudu Sect is also very ambitious, recruiting followers and believers from all over the place, with evil intentions, and I am afraid it will be a great disaster to the general.

After Meng Zhao came back, he had already written to Meng Jizu, informing him of the existence of Pudu Sect and describing various extraordinary actions of this sect. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, he had not yet received a reply.

Unexpectedly, today he actually learned news from the Zhou family that might be related to the Pudu Cult. He was shocked and felt a little heavier.

If it is true as he suspected, the potential power of the Pudu Sect may be far more terrifying than he imagined. There are forces of the Pudu Sect in Yanzhou and also in Lingwu City. What about Jizhou and Liangzhou?

Thinking further, the Pudu Sect coerced Yuan Bin into joining the religion in an attempt to plot against the Yuan family in Qingzhou. Does this mean that many forces had already been controlled by him using similar methods?

Also, Meng Zhao always felt that the Pudu Sect was too quiet. After he defeated the three major guardian Dharma Kings, he was allowed to leave Kunnan calmly and return to Lingwu City without any action. This was really unreasonable.

Could it be that when Zhou Gushan sent someone to assassinate him, there were elements of the Pudu Sect involved?

In just a short moment, Meng Zhao had thousands of thoughts generated and disillusioned in his head, and he was even more eager to find out the truth.

Meng Zhaotong was exhausted and continued to ask the woman questions, including Zhou Gushan's daily abnormal behavior, the location of the Buddha statue, etc., in order to be precise...

In the back house of the Zhou family, in a very spacious and bright study room, a middle-aged man with gray temples was carefully proofreading the two books in his hands under the illumination of bright fireworks, comparing them one by one with great caution.

He is Zhou Gushan, the current head of the Zhou family. In the eyes of the outside world, after the death of his grandfather and father, he was ordered to take charge of the Zhou family and led the Zhou family through the most difficult years. weak.

There were also dangerous moments when faced with life and death decisions, and there were also vicious traps that led to an abyss with every step he took, but he was able to overcome them one by one and became the leader respected and worshiped by everyone in the Zhou family.

He is not too old, probably only in his thirties, but his temples are already gray. It can be seen that a lot of hard work and heavy thoughts have greatly weakened his vitality.

His facial features are deep and three-dimensional, and his handsome appearance does not have the fortitude and coldness of ordinary warriors, but is more elegant and upright. His temperament is very much like the green pine standing on the edge of the steep cliff in the ice and snow. It is tall, green and full of resilience.

After a long time, Zhou Gushan raised his head from the stacks of papers on the desk and tapped his neck with his hand.

Although with his level of cultivation, physical fatigue does not exist, mental fatigue is unavoidable.

"Sigh, compared to before, the appetite there is much bigger. Is it possible that the Zhou family really wants to tighten their belts and live a life without destroying the family and destroying the whole family, but do they still have to provide for their needs?"

Zhou Gushan had a sad look on his face and leaned back on the chair with his head in a daze, wondering what he was thinking.

Not long after, there were several rhythmic knocks on the door outside, causing Zhou Gushan, who had been deep in thought, to wake up. There was an unnatural look of disgust in his eyes, but he quickly restrained himself.

"Come in."

Following Zhou Gushan's words, a man with rough hands and feet wearing the clothes of a servant of the Zhou family walked in from outside the study.

He is not very old, four or five years younger than Zhou Gu Shanshan, but he is tall and majestic, with amazing energy and blood. At first glance, he is a master of profound and horizontal martial arts.

After this person walked into the study, he closed the door very carefully. His originally stooped body gradually straightened up as he turned around, like a peak reaching into the sky.

"Zhou Xiangzhu, the bright holy flame, saves all living beings. I'm rude to come here rashly."

As he spoke, the person clasped his hands together and made a certain handprint gesture, a total of six movements, as if to confirm his identity.

Zhou Gushan had also stood up from his seat at this time, and with the same solemn expression, he replied with the words "Bright Holy Flame, save all living beings". He was also quite proficient in hand seal skills, which showed that this was not his first time practicing.

After greeting each other, it was confirmed that each other's identities were not impersonated by others.

The man dressed as a servant twitched his thick eyebrows and said,

"I just received news from the headquarters, saying that the supplies and silver donated by Master Zhou Xiang last time were 30% less than before, and this time the operation was three days later than before. I wonder what difficulties Master Zhou Xiang encountered?"

Although his tone was very tactful, in essence, he was still asking Zhou Gushan if he had selfish thoughts, so he did this deliberately.

Zhou Gushan gave a wry smile, turned around, took the two books on his desk, handed them to the other party, and said,

"Holy envoy, it's not that Mr. Zhou deliberately shied away from complaining. In fact, in recent days, the city has been in constant turmoil. The Li family of the ninth surname caused a wave of trouble. Many aristocratic families were destroyed, and an ally of my Zhou family completely withdrew from Lingwu City. , causing Zhou's business to be greatly affected.

In order to provide supplies for the teaching, even the government's efforts to reduce internal expenditures have been suspended, and even the training of dead soldiers has been suspended.

At this time, the Zhou family was almost an empty shell.

Not just recently, in fact, in the past few years, the Holy Envoy must also know how I, Zhou Gushan, have treated the Holy Religion and how much resources, money, and supplies I have provided.

For this reason, the Zhou family's business plummeted for a time. There was no cash flow and the business was suspended many times.

I also asked the Holy Envoy to say a few kind words for Mr. Zhou after he returns. My Zhou family has really reached the point of being overwhelmed. I hope the leader can be more considerate. "

The man who was called the Holy Envoy took the book in his hand, glanced at it casually a few times, and then threw it aside. His tone was cold and no longer as gentle as before, and he said,

"I don't know if your Zhou family is suffering. I only know that the leader has set a share for your Zhou family. You can't lose even one cent. This time I came because the headquarters had a bad opinion of you. It was the saint who tried to dissuade you." , gave you a chance.

Remember, next month's offerings must be on time, and at the same time, the shortfalls must be made up. If there are any more gaps or delays, it won't be me, but those guys from the Law Enforcement Hall. "

Zhou Gushan clenched his hands tightly, breathed rapidly, and the anger in his eyes almost burst out. Finally, a trace of reason woke him up and told him to suppress all the murderous intent. He was dissatisfied and gritted his teeth and said,

"Okay, since the holy envoy thinks so, I have nothing to say and I should obey it."

After that, he waved his sleeves and returned to his seat, no longer paying attention to the other party, and made it clear to see the guests off.

The holy envoy didn't care. He smiled slightly, showing a pair of teeth as bright and sharp as steel knives, and pushed the door open to leave.
