The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 62: 61: Wenxiangguan, Zhou Wu

Although Chu Zhou has not yet practiced Taoism, after learning the basics of "Spirit Particle Theory", he has already taken one foot into the path of Taoism.

As he was about to enter the immortal path, Chu Zhou thought that he still had to believe in the theory of cause and effect to some extent.

He didn’t know how others felt during this worship, but he felt a long-lost sense of relaxation.

It seemed that the resentment that had been accumulating in his heart had completely dissipated, and his whole body became a little clearer. When his mind moved, his energy flowed, as if he were alive.

After returning to Xuanzhen Temple and having lunch, Chu Zhou took a nice nap. When he woke up, it was already evening.

After all, Xuanzhen Temple is outside the city. These villages all adhere to the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. In the evening, when the sun is about to set, it is already quiet.

All the pilgrims and patients in Xuanzhen Temple had left, leaving only Fan Zhong directing a few servants to clean and prepare dinner.

Chu Zhou was used to staying here, and he didn't feel bad about it. He prepared to eat, study, and practice martial arts...

This kind of life may be a bit monotonous, but it is really solid and allows me to clearly see my own growth.

However, although the idea was good, the arrival of one person broke the tranquility of Xuanzhen Temple.

……

after dinner.

Xuanzhen looks outside,

Ta-ta-ta-ta!

dong dong dong dong!

The sound of horse hooves was urgent, accompanied by knocks on the door, like a violent storm, and the door was slammed loudly.

"Who is it? Didn't you see that the Taoist temple is closed? If you want to burn incense and pray for blessings, come tomorrow..."

"Open the door. It's me, Wei Jinkui from the Iron Spear Martial Arts School, looking for Master Chu."

"Ah, Master Wei, come, come, come!"

With a creak, the door opened. Ah Da first stuck his head out to look, and saw Wei Jinkui standing outside the door with a sullen face.

……

living room.

Chu Zhou came hurriedly and saw Wei Jinkui turning around like an ant on a hot pan. His usually calm face was now filled with panic.

"Uncle, what happened that makes you so anxious?"

When Wei Jinkui saw him, he immediately said, "It's a disaster, it's a disaster, a huge disaster!"

Chu Zhou pushed him down on the chair, somewhat helplessly: "Even a disaster of great magnitude can be solved. Don't worry, don't worry. Tell me what happened first."

"Luo Gan, the traitor of the Yunya Sword Sect, actually showed up in Baisha City and was killed."

Chu Zhou: “…”

If you want to talk about this, then I definitely know more about it than you, because I was the one who killed that person!
But after a little thought, he said, "It's better to die. If he dies, there will be no evidence. What does it have to do with us?"

"It's a big deal!"

Wei Jinkui took a deep breath and said, "He is dead, but he left behind a huge trouble!"

"How to say?"

"It is said that Luo Gan died at the hands of a ghostwriter. His death would have been fine, but the Yunya Sword School's top-grade martial arts, the 'Wind, Frost, Cloud and Snow Sword', was found on his body.

According to the ghostwriter's rules, this is naturally the ghostwriter's trophy.

But the problem was that the people from the Yunya Sword Sect also arrived, and neither side gave in, so Elder Qiu got angry and started fighting."

Wei Jinkui took a sip of tea to ease his thirst, and continued, "The great master of the marrow training realm was no match for that ghostwriter, and he was beaten to the point of vomiting blood in just a few moves.

But the problem was that the ghostwriter was also very smart. He actually shouted that the Yunya Sword Sect was bullying the ghostwriters, and thus involved almost all the ghostwriters present.

Then, there was a big fight between the Yunya Sword School and the ghost swordsman. The two sides fought fiercely. They were relatively restrained last night, but today it got more and more intense, and even fought on the street. "

“The Yunya Sword Sect has few members, but they are all elite and well-coordinated. The ghost swordmen fight alone, but they cannot withstand their sneak attacks, and there are many experts among them.

The two sides used Baisha City as a battlefield and the fight was really intense. You can imagine how intense the scene was!"

Chu Zhou frowned slightly and asked, "So, a lot of civilians were killed or injured?"

“There will definitely be casualties, they are all experts, even if it is just the aftermath of the battle, the houses will collapse, it is not something that ordinary people can withstand.

In fact, let alone the common people, even the wealthy families couldn’t stand it! Since noon, the city gate has been filled with people leaving with their families, and a long queue has formed.”

Chu Zhou asked again: "Does the county magistrate not care?"

"Manage? How? What can we rely on to manage? The county lieutenant has eight hundred good-for-nothings under his command. Do you think they dare to go out on the street and face those gangsters?"

Wei Jinkui shook his head and said, "In this situation, the county magistrate can only report it to the higher authorities and ask the county governor to send people to suppress it, but that will take time.

Right now, I guess our county lord hasn't reacted yet!"

Having said that, Wei Jinkui slapped his head again and said, "Wait, why did I say that? You've led me astray. This is not what I wanted to say."

"Is there anything more troublesome than this?" "Of course, in fact, even if the Yunya Sword Sect and the Ghost Sword Master fight, as long as it doesn't affect others, I don't have to worry so much.

But in the afternoon, I got a piece of news that shocked me beyond belief.”

"How to say?"

"Someone's dead!"

"Who died?"

"Zhou Chongwen, the son of the master of Wenxiang Temple, died in an alley. When he was found, he had been stabbed with eighteen swords all over his body. Every sword pierced through his body, and his blood was almost drained out.

Then, his expert bodyguard recognized that it was the sword technique of the Yunya Sword Sect, and directly led his men to block Elder Qiu and his gang from the Yunya Sword Sect.

When I left the city, both sides were still in a standoff!"

Wei Jinkui still had fear in his eyes when he said this, but Chu Zhou still didn't feel the danger. He tilted his head and asked again: "I don't think this has anything to do with us?"

Wei Jinkui said with a look of disappointment: "My dear nephew, I always thought you were very smart, why can't you react this time?
Zhou Chongwen, Zhou Chongwen, he is the only son of Zhou Wu, the master of Wenxiang Temple!"

"Scent of Fragrance Temple? Zhou Wu..."

Chu Zhou tried hard to search for information in his mind, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Zhou Wu, Zhou Wu, the number one expert in Tianquan County, Zhou Wu?"

"Yes, that's him!"

After a pause, Wei Jinkui said, "You are a person without a master, so you may not know much. I will explain it to you in detail.

In Tianquan County, there are three strongest martial arts sects, namely Yunya Sword Sect, Wenxiang Temple and Husha Pavilion.

Among them, our Husha Pavilion mainly follows the military route. Most of our disciples take the military examinations, and after gaining fame, they enter the army for training and serve as military officers in various places.

The Yunya Sword Sect is the old-school number one. In fact, they have dominated Tianquan County for hundreds of years. Their outstanding swordsmanship and decisive killing skills have earned them a well-deserved reputation.

But the problem is that there has been a lack of successors in the past few decades, especially since the emergence of Wenxiang Temple, and Zhou Wu has become the best master in Tianquan."

"In fact, before Zhou Wu became famous, Wenxiang Temple was not considered a powerful sect. Its biggest feature was the production of various 'strange fragrances'.
The 'Soul-Calming Incense' is the most powerful, and it can be of great use to innate warriors when they are practicing."

"Of course, those kinds of exotic fragrances are too difficult to make. There are few raw materials and even fewer finished products. The real flagship products of Wenxiangguan are still mainly 'sleeping fragrance' and 'aphrodisiac fragrance', and they have made a lot of money just from them."

“It’s just that I don’t know how this Wenxiang Temple got so lucky to have accepted a talented disciple, and trained him all the way, and he actually achieved innate status.

Moreover, this innate person of his is not an ordinary innate person.

It is said that he once ventured into the Red Water Prefecture and made all the disciples of the real big sects bow down to him. As a result, over time, he became known as the best master in Tianquan County."

"The problem is that when Zhou Wu got this title, the Yunya Sword Sect didn't react at all, and even acquiesced. This shows the value of this title."

“You have to know that even if you ignore those sword maniacs from the Yunya Sword Sect, they can still make some money. When they are right, there is no need to say anything.

But they all admitted it, and it was obvious that they had suffered a great loss in private."

"In the past few decades, the atmosphere in Tianquan County has been tense, mostly because of this. Everyone is wondering when the Yunya Sword Sect and Wenxiang Temple will turn against each other and have a sect war."

Chu Zhou frowned and asked again: "What about Zhou Chongwen?"

"Zhou Wu, the head of Wenxiang Temple, is a great martial artist, but it is said that due to his training in a certain technique, he has difficulty having children. He has brought concubines home one after another, but their bellies are rarely moving.

It was not until he was over 60 that he had a son, Zhou Chongwen.

"You can imagine how much he treasured this son. He was afraid that he would melt if he held him in his mouth, and afraid that he would drop if he held him in his hands.

Look at his name, Chongwen, Chongwen. A son of a warrior wants to learn literature. You can imagine how much his father treasures this son. "

"In fact, the entire Tianquan County, from the officials and clans to the common people, all know that this little ancestor must not be offended."

Chu Zhou was not calm anymore: "No, why would such a person go to Baisha City?"

Wei Jinkui smiled bitterly: "Just to join in the fun! Isn't it the nature of young people to like to watch the fun?

He was not afraid of being targeted, so he brought a few bodyguards to Baisha City to watch the fun. "

Chu Zhou couldn't help complaining: "And then, he lost his life!"

"That's the thing. Once he dies, there will be no peace in Tianquan County forever."

Chu Zhou tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "No, Uncle Wei, do you think that if these two major sects fight, we will be implicated? Isn't it okay for us not to get involved?"

"No, haha, you wish!"

Wei Jinkui sneered and said, "Do you think you can save yourself by not getting involved? Do you think you can just sit back and watch the two major sects fight to the death and maybe take advantage of something?"

"My dear nephew, don't treat those old foxes as fools!"

“If they really start fighting, they will inevitably form cliques and factions, and force you and me to take sides, either this or that.

Not to mention you, it's hard to say whether the Tiger Demon Pavilion can be safe!"

“As for the means?
There really shouldn't be too many. For example, your Xuanzhen Temple is under the jurisdiction of the Daoluo Division, and theoretically it falls under the management of Wenxiang Temple.

They sent you an invitation, asking you to help in the battle, so I ask you, will you go or not?"

"If you go, you can't run away, you have to charge into battle; if you don't go, haha, I guess you won't be able to wait until they decide the winner, and your Xuanzhen Temple will be gone!"
