Chapter 126 Arranging tasks
Although they thought the Taoist priest in front of them was incredibly skilled, they were still shocked. They thought he must be an immortal descended to earth, knowing everything.
"Master, if you have any instructions for us to carry out, please let us know," Zhang Qishan said, clasping his hands in greeting.
"No rush, let's talk about it when Er Yuehong comes tomorrow. Now, go do something for me and bring me Chen Pi."
Upon hearing this, the two dared not ask the reason and had no choice but to go out to catch Chenpi.
After leaving the house, they arrived at the military camp and ordered Lieutenant Zhang to lead a team of men to the hospital to collect dried tangerine peel.
"Why did you catch Chenpi, Taoist priest?" Master Xie asked.
"I have a general guess that Chen Pi is a ruthless person and not a kind one."
"Doesn't that mean the Taoist priest might be able to deal with Chen Pi? But with his skills, dealing with Chen Pi would be a piece of cake. Why would we need to bring people to catch him?" Master Xie asked.
"We don't understand. How can we comprehend the Taoist priest's actions? Just follow his instructions."
They came to the hospital and took Chenpi, who was still recovering from his injuries, away.
On the other side, Lu Jianxun also received news that Zhang Qishan had led his men to take away Chen Pi, who was recovering from his injuries.
So he led his men to the Zhang residence, wanting to see what Zhang Qishan and his men were up to.
Inside the Zhang residence, Zhou Yongcheng saw Chen Pi wrapped in bandages. He touched Chen Pi's forehead from a distance, and Chen Pi's soul was controlled.
“From now on, he will stay by your side. This dried tangerine peel is a good knife, and it still has a lot of room for growth.”
Chen Pi turned to Zhang Qishan and said, "Master."
Zhang Qishan and his men were already numb, but Zhang's adjutant and others were quite frightened.
Such skills are not possessed by ordinary people.
At this moment, Lu Jianxun led his men into the Zhang residence.
"Zhang Qishan, why did you take Chenpi away? Do you know that Chenpi is still under supervision?"
Zhou Yongcheng glanced at Lu Jianxun. This man had karmic karmic threads attached to him and had done a lot of bad things.
With a flick of his wrist, Lu Jianxun became an obedient puppet.
"You may leave now. We can discuss this tomorrow."
It was already evening when Zhang Qishan and his group left the Zhang residence, followed by Chen Pi and Lu Jianxun.
"Master, this seems to be your residence?" Zhang, the adjutant, said.
"The Taoist priest is staying here now. Let's go and stay at Ninth Master's place for the night."
The next day, Zhang Qishan, Er Yuehong, and Xie Jiuye arrived at the Zhang residence.
Zhou Yongcheng sat on the sofa, holding a Taoist scripture in his hand and reading it.
Upon seeing them arrive, Zhou Yongcheng put down the Taoist scriptures in his hand and invited them to sit down, but Zhang Qishan and the others dared not sit and stood opposite him.
"The three of you are all members of the Nine Gates. I won't go into too much detail about who the members of the Nine Gates are. Zhang Qishan, you have the bloodline of Qiongqi and are a good prospect. I want you to take control of Changsha, and then Hunan Province. Eliminate all the foreign forces that covet the treasures of China, leaving none alive. Pay special attention to Xiao Rizi."
Er Yuehong, you should establish an organization specifically to clean up those tombs that breed evil spirits and remove the evil things inside. Many tombs have been arranged by evil feng shui masters, especially a Ming Dynasty feng shui master named Wang Zanghai, who created many large tombs that can breed evil spirits on the land of China. These tombs are extremely harmful and must be cleaned up. In your world, there is a place that is the most evil place, the source of evil energy, and the origin of all evil spirits. It depends on whether you can find that place and eliminate that source.
Master Jie, you're a shrewd businessman, so you'll be in charge of their logistics.
What are your opinions, the three of you?
After Zhou Yongcheng finished speaking, he looked at the three of them.
"No, we will do our best to complete the tasks assigned by the Taoist priest."
Zhou Yongcheng unleashed three beams of divine light, which entered them from between their eyebrows.
The three of them immediately felt a lot of information appear in their brains. After reading through the information, they found that they had obtained a cultivation technique.
"The cultivation technique I'm giving you can be used to purify evil energy. It's also the nemesis of those evil spirits. If you can cultivate this technique to the Nascent Soul stage, then you can enter a higher-level world."
Zhou Yongcheng gave Zhang Qishan a Buddhist cultivation method, while the other two gave him a Taoist cultivation method; each had its own.
Although this world is full of evil energy and there is no spiritual energy, cultivation techniques can be practiced by using evil energy. In fact, cultivation techniques are practiced by using merit. When they purify evil energy, heaven and earth will bestow merit, which is the source of their cultivation.
"Thank you for bestowing the Dharma upon me, Daoist Master."
The three men bowed deeply to Zhou Yongcheng.
Zhou Yongcheng waved his hand to lift them up and said, "Since you want to train your subordinates, I'll give you some martial arts techniques to train them."
Three more beams of divine light entered between the three men's eyebrows, and Zhou Yongcheng gave them all the martial arts manuals he knew.
"Master, can our own cultivation techniques be passed on to outsiders?" Er Yuehong asked.
Zhou Yongcheng thought for a moment and said, “You can decide for yourselves. Although the cultivation method I gave you three is for purifying evil energy, cultivators must not do evil. Every time you do evil, your cultivation level will drop by one point. This is to prevent those with evil intentions from raising evil spirits to cultivate.”
Zhou Yongcheng was quite impressed with these techniques. The person who created them was a remarkable individual who combined merit and karma. Having merit would enhance one's cultivation, while having bad karma would cause one's cultivation to regress. Essentially, the amount of bad karma one had would equal the amount of cultivation one lost, with the two canceling each other out.
Zhou Yongcheng then told them some more things, some information about history.
Before leaving, Zhou Yongcheng gave all the weapons he had kept in his spatial storage to Zhang Qishan, since they were useless in his storage space. He also gave Xie Jiuye a lot of technology, telling him to develop Chinese technology.
After giving his explanation, Zhou Yongcheng disappeared.
"Buddha, what should we do now?" Zhou Yongcheng only gave them the general direction; the specifics were up to them.
Buddha thought for a moment and said, “Let’s focus on development for now. Didn’t the Taoist priest say that we should each develop a force? I’ll reorganize the Changsha army first. Jianxun has already been controlled by the Taoist priest, so the army is easy to manage. Also, we need to get rid of those foreigners in Changsha. Those guys are all eyeing the mines outside the city.”
"Alright, I'll recruit some people first and set up the framework for the power I want to establish."
“I can think of a business to start with. We won’t do the antique business anymore, but we can collect antiques. Some antiques have the evil aura that the Taoist priest mentioned. By the way, Second Master, the Taoist priest said that the hairpin Chen Pi gave to the girl was from a tomb and has evil aura. You should go back and check it, so that the girl doesn’t run into it again.”
After agreeing on their direction, the three of them got busy with their own tasks.
When Zhou Yongcheng arrived at the mine outside the city, the sheer amount of evil energy there was astonishing.
He didn't touch anything else when he came here, he just took the meteorite copper inside.
He was very curious about what this thing was.
Once you get your hands on the meteorite, you'll know what it is. It's actually quite magical; it can create a virtual world. If someone's mental strength hasn't reached a certain level, they'll be trapped in that virtual world.
Meteorite copper can be considered a spatial material that can be used to forge spatial equipment. Zhou Yongcheng put it away without hesitation. As for the two smaller pieces outside, Zhou Yongcheng didn't touch them, and just waited to see if Zhang Qishan and the others could get their hands on them.
