I was selling peach wood swords on a live stream, how did I become a Taoist ancestor?

"And this too."

Master Xuanming then pointed to the door god statue.

Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong are painted with remarkable realism.

Although the details are not very clear through the screen, one can vaguely feel the spirit of it.

"Master Li, what is this...?" President Qin muttered to himself.

He didn't understand.

Why did Master Li send Spring Festival couplets and door gods to the border guards in Kunlun?

Was it done casually?

Or... is there a deeper meaning?

"Gentlemen, what do you think?" President Qin asked in a deep voice.

A high-ranking official spoke first: "Master Li's actions are probably not just a simple gesture of support and comfort for the military."

"That's right." The other person nodded. "With Master Li's level of attainment, every move he makes may contain profound meaning."

"The content of this couplet..." Xuanming Daoist stroked his beard and slowly began, "With unyielding spirit, they guard the frontier; with burning passion, they defend their country... This is not just a blessing, but more like a kind of... blessing."

"Blessing?" President Qin looked at him.

"Yes." Master Xuanming nodded. "It was written by Master Li himself, so it must contain his will and power."

"If this couplet were posted at a border outpost, it would probably serve to guard the area and protect the soldiers."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.

Guarding a region and protecting soldiers?

Doesn't that mean that Master Li's couplet is at least comparable to a powerful magical artifact?

"Master, can you judge the effect of this couplet?" President Qin asked.

Xuanming Daoist shook his head: "This old Daoist's cultivation is shallow, and I cannot fathom Master Li's realm."

"However, judging from the methods Master Li has demonstrated before, the effect of this couplet is probably far beyond our expectations."

President Qin remained silent.

He recalled the astonishing power of that small peach wood sword that night on Longhu Mountain.

A single talisman can summon nine bolts of heavenly lightning, and a single sword can obliterate evil spirits in the Void Refinement stage.

That couplet...

President Qin dared not even think about it.

Moreover, Master Li sent couplets and door god images to Kunlun at this time...

Did he foresee the crisis in Kunlun?

So, are they bestowing blessings in advance, and using couplets to guard the border?

"Contact the Kunlun garrison immediately!" General Qin made a decisive decision. "Tell them to take this couplet and door god statues very seriously, and to transport them to Camp Seven immediately upon receipt!"

"yes!"

The order was relayed.

But after thinking about it, President Qin felt it wasn't enough.

"Wait a minute, have Liu Zhenguo send an elite squad to escort this couplet and the door god statues to Kunlun. Tell him to deliver the couplet to Valley Seven as quickly as possible!"

The series of orders made everyone in the office feel the importance that President Qin attached to the matter.

In the eyes of the night watchmen, this couplet was no longer just a simple gift of comfort.

Rather, it is a strategic "weapon" that could potentially change the situation in Kunlun!

……

Luxian Post Office.

Wang Yun is sorting through today's packages.

Suddenly, the post office door was pushed open.

Several men dressed in black suits and exuding a sharp and capable air walked in.

The one leading them was Chen Jianguo.

"Is this Ms. Wang?" Chen Jianguo showed his identification. "Special Office, Chen Jianguo."

Wang Yun paused for a moment, feeling somewhat nervous.

"Special...Special Office? What do you need?"

"We'd like to take a look at the package that a Mr. Li Jun sent this morning," Chen Jianguo said politely but firmly.

"Ah... okay, alright."

Wang Yun quickly found a cardboard box under the counter.

Chen Jianguo took the box and examined it carefully.

He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that everything was intact.

"Ms. Wang, we will be handling this package from now on."

"Huh? Why...why?" Wang Yun asked, puzzled.

"This is a classified mission." Chen Jianguo didn't explain further. "Thank you for your cooperation."

As he spoke, he gestured for Wang Hu to take the box.

Then, Chen Jianguo took a specially made metal box from someone behind him.

The box wasn't large, but it looked very heavy, with intricate runes engraved on its surface.

He put the cardboard box into the metal box and locked it.

"Ms. Wang, please keep today's events a secret."

"Yes...yes!" Wang Yun nodded quickly.

Chen Jianguo did not linger and hurriedly left with his men.

Outside the post office, a black SUV had been waiting for some time.

Chen Jianguo got into the car and placed the metal box on his lap.

"Drive to the airport."

"yes!"

The SUV started and sped away.

They would first go to Nancheng Airport, and then take a private plane to send the couplet to Kunlun as quickly as possible.

Throughout the journey, Chen Jianguo carried the metal box, his feelings a mix of emotions.

He never imagined that he would one day be carrying out such a mission.

They escorted a couplet and a door god statue.

"Master Li, oh Master Li..."

Chen Jianguo muttered to himself.

"With that casual wave of your hand, how much of a storm will you stir up this time?"

……

a few days later.

At the foot of Kunlun Mountain, a border defense force is stationed in a military area.

Two camouflage-painted off-road vehicles rolled through the snow and stopped beside the makeshift airport runway.

Chen Jianguo pushed open the car door and jumped out. The Cola Novel Reading Feast: a vast collection of books, an ultimate experience. The cold wind of the plateau felt like knives on his face, and he subconsciously tightened his collar.

An officer who had been waiting by the runway quickly stepped forward and saluted.

"Captain Chen, everyone, you must be tired from your journey."

The officer's surname was Zhao. He was in his thirties, had dark skin, and was the battalion commander of the border defense battalion stationed in this area.

Chen Jianguo returned the salute: "Battalion Commander Zhao, thank you for your trouble."

"Of course." Battalion Commander Zhao waved his hand, glanced at the night watchmen following behind Chen Jianguo, and at the specially made metal box that Wang Hu was carefully holding in his arms.

"Captain Chen, we have been instructed to fully cooperate with you during your special mission."

Battalion Commander Zhao pointed to a dark green helicopter parked not far away: "The WZ-10 is the best high-altitude model. Pilot Ma Jun has been flying this route for more than ten years and has the most experience."

"The weather is alright today. Although it's cold, the visibility is good. Ma Jun will take you directly to the temporary take-off and landing point on the outskirts of Valley Seven. We'll return together after you complete your mission."

Chen Jianguo nodded: "Okay, then let's hurry up."

Battalion Commander Zhao arranged for two soldiers to help carry the luggage, and the group quickly walked towards the helicopter.

The propellers had begun to turn slowly, swirling up the snow on the ground.

The cabin was not very spacious, and with the pilot Ma Jun, there were a total of eight people sitting there, making it a bit crowded.

Chen Jianguo, holding the metal box, and Wang Hu sat in the position closest to the cockpit.

"Fasten your seatbelts and hold on tight!" Ma Jun shouted back, "The airflow in Kunlun is really turbulent; you'll easily get bumped when it gets bumpy!"

Everyone quickly checked their seat belts.

The helicopter lifted off the ground, climbed, and flew towards the distant, continuous white mountain range.

Outside the window, there was a vast, desolate snowfield.

The sky was that unique, almost transparent blue of the plateau, and the sunlight was dazzling, reflecting a brilliant light onto the snow.

Below was a vast expanse of white, with occasional glimpses of black rock formations resembling the jagged bones of the earth.

The harsh climate and turbulent airflow require even the best high-altitude helicopter pilots to maintain full concentration.

Boom boom boom!

The roar of the helicopter rotors tore through the stagnant chill in the air above the Kunlun Mountains.

Inside the cockpit, Ma Jun, an experienced veteran of dozens of transport missions, stared at the instrument panel and out the window, his brows gradually furrowing before he let out a surprised exclamation.

"what?"

"What's wrong?" the soldier in charge of liaison asked immediately.

Ma Jun didn't answer immediately. Instead, he carefully considered the situation for a few seconds, checked several key data points, and then spoke with an incredulous tone:

"Today... went a little too smoothly."

"smoothly?"

"Yes." Ma Jun took a deep breath. "Look outside. It should be a strong wind zone and turbulence area right now. Usually when we fly here, the helicopter shakes so badly that it could shake the last of our dinner out of our mouths."

He pointed to the relatively stable instruments: "But now, not only is the helicopter incredibly stable, but even the clouds and cyclones along our planned flight path have dispersed."

Upon hearing this, the people in the cabin instinctively looked out the window.

Indeed, the helicopter flew smoothly, and although the wind and snow outside continued, they stayed in the distance, leaving a clear path for them.

This is too bizarre.

When did the sky over Kunlun become so "friendly"?

At this moment, Chen Jianguo looked down at the box in his arms, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Wang Hu noticed the change in Chen Jianguo's expression. He leaned closer and lowered his voice: "Boss, could it be...?"

Chen Jianguo nodded slowly, his tone certain: "It's definitely thanks to this thing."

He gently patted the cold metal box.

The item bestowed by Master Li possesses such power simply by being carried with him?

Chen Jianguo's heart was filled with excitement, and his gaze out the window was full of anticipation.

Even just traveling has brought such miraculous results.

Once we actually reach Valley Seven, what kind of earth-shattering power will these two thin sheets of paper unleash?

He simply couldn't bear to think about it.

at the same time.

Thousands of miles away, in the mild climate of Luxian County, lies Qingfeng Temple.

Li Jun was squatting in the yard, changing the water for the dragonfish.

The well water was clear and slightly cool.

The silvery-white arowana swayed its tail in the tank, and the two protrusions on its head had grown a little bigger, gleaming with a faint golden hue in the sunlight.

"You're growing way too fast," Li Jun muttered. "If you keep growing like this, the water tank won't be big enough to hold you anymore."

The arowana seemed to understand, shrinking its body and hiding half of its tail behind the water plants.

"Hey, you think you can hide from us?"

Li Jun smiled and was about to continue teasing the fish when his phone suddenly rang twice.

The first is the postal logistics information:

Your package has arrived at a border defense unit in Kunlun and has been signed for by the recipient.

Below is another text message from an unknown number:

【Mr. Li, we have received your kind gesture. All officers and soldiers of our unit express our sincerest gratitude for your care and support!】

—Kunlun Garrison Office.

After reading it, Li Jun scratched his head.

He was accepted by the military so quickly? And someone even came to thank him?

It seems the support and appreciation event for the military was quite formal and efficient.

He casually replied, "You're welcome, thank you for your hard work," and then put down his phone.

He was also wondering if the border guards would think his calligraphy and painting were too shabby.
