Chapter 118 Congratulations on finding a special emergency duty, come and take it~
"I'm very curious, what was your ancestor's will at that time? It sounds like it has something to do with Li Quan Gun, can I know?"
Du Kang fiddled with the Liquan Gun twice, and the spiritual power poured in almost naturally without any discomfort, just like an arm. At the same time, some information was also passed into his mind. Du Kang did not resist and put these into his mind.
After receiving all the information, he checked it and asked the Taoist priest who led it.
"Since Mr. Du has taken this Liquan gun, it proves that you are the destined person mentioned in the ancestor's will. Naturally, this will can be said."
The leading Taoist priest said without hesitation: "Actually, it's about the Liquan Spear. When the Patriarch sealed the Liquan Spear, he said that it was entrusted to him by a friend. Someone will naturally come to pick it up in the future. What we are talking about is
All you need to do is to post the location information about the Liquan Gun on the 'incense mall' when there is movement in the seal, and you only need to sell it once."
"You only sell it once, so you're not afraid of missing out?" Du Kang couldn't help but ask.
This feeling of being a "destined person" made Du Kang a little uncomfortable... Mainly because he also thought of Zhuge Liang's saying that "it is not in the secret of heaven and cannot be calculated". Not long after he believed it, this happened.
This incident made Du Kang doubtful for a while whether what Zhuge Liang said was true.
It can't be that Zhuge Liang's divination skills are not accurate and he can't figure it out, right?
Or is it another possibility?
Du Kang fell into deep thought. There is indeed another possibility, but the probability is relatively small and very complicated... but in any case, it is definitely higher than the possibility that the deceased Taoist Wang Chongyang's divination skills were better than Zhuge Liang's.
"...We can only abide by the ancestor's will and dare not make any changes. As for how the ancestor calculated it, we don't know." The leading Taoist priest felt helpless when he heard this question.
It can be seen that he really wants to answer Du Kang, but he can't make it up if he doesn't know. Du Kang is not the kind of character who is easy to fool.
"It doesn't matter, it's enough for me to know the news... What is going on here?" Du Kang, who had finished solving his own affairs and was temporarily free, curiously asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time.
"How could the Taoist Holy Land, the Quanzhen Ancestral Court, be so corrupted like this? With your strength, although it is not too strong, it will not be reduced to this situation, right?"
"This matter is somewhat of a long story," the leading Taoist priest said with a wry smile, "It's mainly related to the dynasty..."
After listening to the Taoist priest's narration, Du Kang had some understanding of the reasons why the Quanzhen Sect had declined to this point.
There is no other option but to change the dynasty and change the Deir.
The peak period of development of Quanzhen Religion was in the Yuan Dynasty. The most obvious symbol is that the 73-year-old Qiu Chuji led 18 disciples to the west and arrived at the Balu Bay Palace in the "Snow Mountain" (Hindu Kush Mountain) to meet Genghis Khan.
The "meeting of dragon and horse" plays an important role in "stopping killing with just one word".
Since then, the Quanzhen religion has been respected and developed in various ways in the Yuan Dynasty. At its peak, there were more than 5,000 temples and buildings, and the number of Quanzhen believers reached tens of thousands. Then, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty,
, the upper echelons of the Quanzhen Sect have inevitably experienced various corruption phenomena, similar to modern-day actions such as driving a Lamborghini and waving tens of millions or hundreds of millions.
Such a bloated and developed sect will definitely be punished in the new dynasty, the Ming Dynasty.
Unless the sects left over from the previous dynasty have done enough angel investing in advance and invested in the right people, it will be difficult for them not to be suppressed.
Obviously, that generation was in a state of "wealth and prosperity", and the upper echelons of the Quanzhen Religion who were on the same front as the ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty did not have the vision of this angel.
The Ming Dynasty court adopted a containment policy against the Quanzhen sect, so the Quanzhen sect was divided into sects and had no leader. Due to its gradual loss of power, even the Quanzhen ancestral palace of the Chongyang Palace would inevitably fall into disrepair and gradually become dilapidated and withered.
.
However, since they were Taoist priests who still had some cultivation, they were able to protect the last bit of incense. After all, the Quanzhen Sect was not a crooked sect, and the court was only trying to contain it, not to kill them all.
"I see... But your ancestral home is a bit too shabby." Du Kang thought of the scene he saw while flying in the sky.
If it weren't for his spiritual scanning ability, Du Kang would have doubted whether the Quanzhen Sect would have simply disappeared.
"It's true. This is my dereliction of duty as the headmaster. I have no ability, I can't earn good people, and I can't conquer demons. I'm afraid that I won't be able to defeat them, and my inheritance will be completely cut off..." The leading Taoist priest sighed in a very serious tone.
It's depression and helplessness.
"But even in this situation, you have not thought about selling this Liquan gun to improve your life? Or sell some other things?" Du Kang asked.
Du Kang did not ask why these Taoist priests did not coerce those officials to seek some benefits for themselves or their sect, because he knew the reason.
People with a certain level of cultivation cannot participate in worldly affairs, unless they find that other people with a certain level of cultivation are going to do bad things and stop them. This is a very strict rule. I don’t know how it came about. Du Kang
When asked, Shi Yuye couldn't tell clearly...or maybe he couldn't tell.
For example, if a king seeks immortality, or if there is a war between mortals or between countries, this falls into the category that cannot be helped. If there are evil spirits causing trouble or demons using evil methods to harm others, this is the type that needs to be dealt with.
This rule does exist, and all decent or neutral people must abide by it. As for the crooked ways that generally do not abide by it... there is no need to say more about their fate.
It is this rule that means that even if these Taoist priests are capable, they cannot coerce the imperial court to strengthen their sect... On the one hand, they cannot do this, and on the other hand, they cannot do it because their strength is too weak.
"Young Master, don't be ridiculous. Although we live in poverty, we are not going to starve to death." The leading Taoist priest said, "No, even if we starve to death, it is impossible to sell the relics of our masters..."
"Sometimes you have to be good at adapting. With your abilities, even if your development is restricted, you will definitely not die of hunger. After all, you still have magic in your body. Wouldn't it be better to help others with work? In this case, your ancestor is in the spirit of heaven.
, I will definitely not blame you. If we really want to end the orthodoxy, then that’s when we should blame you.”
Du Kang advised that Taoism is not Buddhism, and it does not play a role that does not engage in production. It belongs to the category of "self-reliance".
"One more thing, even under such circumstances, you don't want to sell the Liquan gun, but I can help you..."
…
After knowing that this was just a remnant of the Chongyang Palace, Du Kang didn't care too much. He just exchanged the incense reward he received from the exorcist - the reward from the evaluation of the previous case of solving the case of Guibei County City God - into wealth.
It was handed over to Hou Yuanfang, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect at this time, and asked him to repair the Quanzhen ancestral court, improve the life, and prevent it from completely falling into ruin and ending the inheritance.
Although even without his own help, Chongyang Palace would not be completely destroyed. After all, there will still be generations to come, but the gang still has to help, and it will be regarded as their reward for keeping the Liquan Spear for themselves... Anyway
That little incense is not much, so it can't be exchanged for anything good.
The reason for using it now instead of saving up and waiting for more points is because Du Kang has decided to quickly end the exterminator shift of this group of Haosheng monks.
It wasn't that there were more things to do and less money, but that Du Kang suddenly discovered something more important, waiting for him to do it.
After Du Kang received the information from the Li Quan Gun and read it in full, he not only received the "Li Quan Gun Technique" mentioned when he purchased it, but also a long-lost pop-up message that appeared directly in front of Du Kang's eyes.
.
[Congratulations on finding a special emergency shift, come and pick it up~]
[Urgent recruitment of temporary special replacement: one person to deal with wandering abnormal creatures and spirits, second job, salary negotiable]
[Special emergency replacement: a replacement that can only be carried out under special circumstances. You need to return after completing the replacement task. This type of replacement is designed to allow the replacement to have a better replacement experience and may cause a larger replacement.
World time span.
Note: In layman’s terms, we only do things, only big things!]
[Do you want to accept this task? Yes/No (Other substitution tasks received during the substitution period will stay in the substitution task list after being accepted. After completing this substitution, you can freely select a time to start taking the substitution.
)】
Du Kang has an impression of this abnormal creature wandering handler, because he has taken over it once before, and it was at this time that he was performing the "exorcist" profession of Taoist Haosheng.
The one I'm currently executing was picked up by myself, and looking at the current situation, this mission was probably triggered by contact with the Liquan Gun and was found through search!
There must be a gap between the tasks he took and the tasks searched by the system. Du Kang had already noticed it before. The difference is that currently, the tasks searched by the system have huge benefits.
In addition, this was related to the Li Quan Gun, which made Du Kang unable to refuse.
This is Yue Fei's gun!
The previous feeling of being unimpeded and even willing to surrender when he first started, coupled with the inexplicable sense of familiarity, had already made Du Kang guess, and now, this task has directly revealed Du Kang's guess.
Du Kang didn't know what the connection was, but he was certain that the connection was definitely related to this replacement mission.
And...the special mechanism I saw for the first time!
"It may produce a larger time span in the substitute world...could it be said that every time I enter this special substitute, it will not only be at a nearby time like these several substitutes, but will jump, several times at a time
Months, even years, decades?" Du Kang thought to himself.
"There is also that note, only doing things, only doing big things, which means that it will only appear at key event nodes, that is, related situations that need to be handled by me, the abnormal spirit wandering handler, and I will return after handling them.
, which is equivalent to completing a task, so there is a saying of "second knot"...
Is it really just to cause trouble? Or is it a deliberately added patch because I am worried that my contact with other people for too long will cause some changes?"
Du Kang looked at the gold-dipped Liquan gun in his hand. Although the gun was heavy, it was not difficult to control in Du Kang's hands. Du Kang even discovered an interesting point about this gun - because it was made from a snake, this gun was made of a snake.
The weapon that is nominally a gun but is actually a "spear" is not only hard under normal conditions, but the metal gun body can also soften when necessary and has excellent elasticity... so it is right to call it a Liquan gun.
of!
What attracts Du Kang the most now is its owner, Duke Wu Mu, Yue Fei. Du Kang would not believe that the mission triggered by the Liquan Gun has nothing to do with Yue Fei, and if it is really related to Yue Fei, then this
It seems to make sense to patch the mission.
Such a special task is obviously more attractive than Haosheng's replacement, and there is already a replacement from City God available at this time point, so there is no need to worry about ending it.
"It's the same work, it's the same job, why don't I do something with a higher salary?" Du Kang muttered, anyway, he didn't receive any compensation from Brother Haosheng, so naturally he didn't feel any guilt about it.
.
However, he was not too anxious. Du Kang went to Liangchang Mountain as planned to pick up the magical plants he wanted to pick along the way.
Liangchang Mountain is located in the north of Xiaomaofeng. It was formerly known as Beichui Mountain. When Qin Shihuang climbed Beichui Mountain in Juqu, he buried a pair of white jade stones, seven feet deep. The officials praised: There is no greater joy than hunting in mountains and seas. From now on, Liangchang Mountain will be a good place for hunting.
Because of Changye, he changed Beizhui to Liangchang Mountain. This is recorded in the book, so Du Kang arrived at Maoshan first, and then found the location of Liangchang Mountain according to the description, and successfully got what he wanted on this trip.
——Firefly fire mushroom.
"It is recorded in Duan Chengshi's "Youyang Miscellaneous Things" that there is firefly mushroom in Liangchang Mountain. Its leaves are like grass, as big as beans, and its purple flowers are bright at night. If you eat one, your heart will be clear.
"Seven, the seven orifices of the heart are so clear that you can read at night..." Du Kang took a quick look and found that the entire Liangchang Mountain was covered with firefly mushrooms, and he was immediately reassured.
With such a scale, it is definitely very easy to grow and is not precious. At least Du Kang found that it also grows on several other nearby mountains, indicating that there are no regional growth requirements.
Compared with the side effects and pain of this substance, the effect it can bring is obviously extremely high. Moreover, this side effect may even be cured. Ancient medicine was not developed enough and it may not be possible to query the pathology, but
In modern times, the stomach area can basically be thoroughly studied. If it can be cured, firefly mushroom will be a rare and perfect magical plant with no side effects.
Just as Du Kang speculated, until he dug a lot of firefly mushrooms and left, no one came out to stop him... Probably the pain was still too unbearable for most people.
He rushed back to Xiangyang to pick up Xiaoxuan and returned to Guicheng. Only then did Du Kang finish his shift and returned to modern times, preparing to study Yue Fei's life carefully and make preparations.
PS: Let me give you a detailed outline. Here is one of the important main lines.
