After filling the Five Insect Temple, Chen Zheng walked out of the canteen alone to the Interior Hall, preparing to receive the benefits of being a senior church member.
Although Wu San and He Daming completed the formal baptism and were automatically promoted to intermediate church members, they still belong to the category of lower-level church members.
They just don't need to do heavy chores, but hard work such as daily exercise and patrol are still inevitable, so they naturally cannot follow his butt all the time.
Although Chen Zheng himself wanted to run away immediately, he could not take action after careful consideration.
Because this stronghold of the Tianmu Divine Sect is built in a huge mountain forest that stretches for more than a hundred miles in the border wasteland. Even if the forest is out, it is hundreds or thousands of miles away from the nearest city.
Nowadays, the world is full of strange and dangerous.
It's so far away, without knowing the direction, and not only the road along the way, but also the wilderness may encounter brutal bandits, or even even more terrifying evil monsters.
Not to mention being an ordinary person, even a successful martial arts master who travels alone is quite risky. You must know the way and have more people together to barely be considered safe.
The most important thing is that Chen Zheng now has an evil eye on his eyebrows, and even if he can run out, he will find a place to stay.
After all, with the efforts of the Guangwu Celestial Empire to destroy various cults, no matter where people gather, once they are discovered, they will be immediately attacked by groups and will never end up.
It is precisely because of all this that he could only lie down at his stronghold first, accumulate more strength, and then make plans.
The Interior Hall is not far from the canteen.
Soon, Chen Zheng came to the Interior Hall and knocked on the door and walked in.
In the vestibule, two internal culprits wiped and washed. A short, thin middle-aged man in brocade robe lay leisurely on the Grand Master's chair, drowsy.
Hearing the movement, the other party opened a pair of cloudy and empty eyes and looked over: "Hmm? You are."
"In the next Chen Zheng, I have met Manager Gu."
The other party's eyes are not like living people, Chen Zheng is not surprised, he is kind to him:
"I will receive the materials of the senior church members after being promoted by my wife, and I need to be in charge of the affairs."
The middle-aged man in front of him was named Gu Liangsheng. Like Qi Gang, he was also a leader of the internal envoy level. He was in charge of the transfer and distribution of materials within the sect. He was the confidant of Mrs. Wumu and was also a person who no one dared to offend.
"So it's your big-time boy?"
Gu Liangsheng was motionless on the recliner, but his strange and indifferent eyes gathered on Chen Zheng's forehead and looked at him strangely:
"In recent years, you are the third successful transplant of Tianmu. Unlock the erect belt and let me see."
Although the other party was offensive, Chen Zheng could not force himself to do so. He immediately took off his forehead and exposed the eyes between his eyebrows.
"Okay, okay, it's worthy of being the master of my wife."
Gu Liangsheng looked at it carefully for a while and laughed strangely:
"Okay, madam, she has sent someone to inform me, your stuff is ready."
As he said that, he ordered the inner church members beside him.
After a while, the two believers brought two trays, one big and one small.
The large one is three sets of clothes with purple patterns on the neckline, three pairs of thick-soled leather boots, and an iron waist brand.
On the small tray are three thin booklets.
Gu Liangsheng underestimated:
"The teaching stipulates that those who are promoted to high-level scholars can also have their own private courtyard in addition to corresponding clothing and waist cards. In addition, they can choose any killing martial arts, and can receive a piece of medicinal herbs every month for their practice.
The medicinal materials for practicing medicine are distributed in a unified manner. It is not time to be distributed yet. You can choose one of these martial arts first."
Can you still get free martial arts?
Chen Zheng's heart moved: "Manager Xie Gu."
As he said that, he walked forward, picked up the booklets one by one, and picked them up.
At the same time, the Emperor Tianyu Chronicle in my mind is shining with golden light, and messages flow out:
【Deadly Knife】
Level: Any
Explanation: The secret of sword technique is like a trapped beast breaking a cage, chasing the soul and chasing the dead, the sword style is fierce and fierce, sharp and unstoppable.
【Singyun Chain Sword】
Level: Any
Explanation: The secret of sword technique, the wind blows and the clouds fly, the sword style is ethereal and dangerous, and it is important to avoid the unexpected.
【Blood Spear】
Level: Any
Explanation: The secret of gunshot technique, blood-threatening throat, the moves are swift and fierce, the gun is like a dragon, and one blow will kill.
All ranks are ordinary.
Without looking through it, Chen Zheng could not help but weigh the situation of the three secret books.
Gu Liangsheng, who was beside him, said with a low smile:
"Boy, don't think so much. These three books are all top-notch killing and fighting skills derived from the superb martial arts. They are powerful. Just choose which weapon you are good at.
If you have reached the level and qualifications in the future, you will be qualified to apply for the corresponding advanced skills from the teachings, and you will not waste your previous hard work in practice."
This is obviously a point of mention. Chen Zheng did not hesitate too much and picked up one of them:
"Manager Xie Gu will give me some advice, I will choose this Violent Knife."
The original owner didn't have a long time to join the teaching. In addition to "Eighteen Styles of Practicing Power", he also learned some basic swordsmanship. It is somewhat of a basic foundation, so naturally there is no need to consider too much.
Gu Liangsheng nodded and said slowly:
"Okay, you should know the rules. It is best to destroy the contents of this handwritten manuscript as soon as possible after memorizing it. It must not be leaked to outsiders or taught to other religious believers in any way, otherwise your hands and feet will be cut off and your martial arts will be abolished. Do you understand?"
I cherish my own treasures, no wonder I can't do it too much.
Chen Zheng sneered in his heart, but agreed:
"I understand below."
Gu Liangsheng nodded lazily: "Okay, the senior church members have independent residences, I'll ask you to choose one."
Chen Zheng bowed again: "I'll trouble the Valley manager."
Gu Liangsheng immediately instructed the internal creator to take out a string of copper keys from the inner room, and lead Chen Zheng out of the Internal Affairs Hall and towards the residential area of the senior religious believers.
The senior church members lived on the mountainside. Not long after walking along the mountain road, they saw a large open space, with separate stone houses and courtyards lined up in an orderly manner.
Each yard is several meters apart, and has fences and walls growing wildly, making each other feel a little private.
Although the house and yard are not necessarily very big, they are already in good condition compared to the small wooden houses like pigeon cages of ordinary churches.
The inner priests who led the way were just intermediate priests, and they immediately envied:
"Most of the courtyards here are occupied, not many empty ones. Now there are only keys for No. 4, No. 14, No. 10, No. 18. Which room do you plan to choose?"
Chen Zheng looked at it and counted silently: "No. 18, is the last room?"
The internal priest nodded and smiled:
"Yes, this room was used to be someone, but I went out to perform a mission a few months ago and died outside, so I was empty."
While speaking, the two of them had reached the end. Chen Zheng saw that although the courtyard of No. 18 was covered with weeds and was deserted, there was only one neighbor of No. 17 a few feet away, and nodded with satisfaction:
"Okay, that's it."
The peddler looked strange and deliberately or unintentionally glanced at the No. 17 yard next to him, then handed the key to Chen Zheng, and turned around and left without saying anything.
Chen Zheng didn't notice this, so he immediately pushed open the small fence door and walked into the yard.
The courtyard is only a few dozen square meters, with a kitchen and a cellar located in the corner of the wall. Although it is not big, it means that it is full of all organs.
When you open the main house door lock and enter it, you will see that the room is quite spacious, separated from the outer room and the inner room, and there is nothing else inside but some simple wooden furniture.
There was a thick layer of dust all over the place. Chen Zheng put down his things without saying a word. He first returned to the small dilapidated house where he originally lived, packed up his mattresses and other debris, and quickly moved home.
Then, the well was fed to water, clean the house, and make the inside and out look fresh.
After he had finished packing up everything, he was finally able to settle down, returned to the inner room and took out the book "The Breaking Knife" and looked it through carefully.
