Among the five people beside Gu Zhou, Da Niu was obviously the strongest. He was tall and strong, more than a head taller than those hooligans. Every punch and kick made a hooligan lose his fighting strength.
Ergou followed beside Da Niu, occasionally sneaking out to ambush him, then immediately returning to Da Niu's side.
Gu Tian was the most experienced. Every move was aimed at the vital parts of the human body. It did not seem to be much force, but it could make the hooligans lose the strength to resist.
In less than half a minute, the 12 hooligans had already fallen to the ground, moaning in pain.
The burly man saw that the situation was not good and wanted to escape.
Chi!
Gu Tian touched his waist and a cold light flashed.
The burly man immediately stopped in his tracks and stood there trembling. A palm-sized knife on the wall beside him trembled.
"B-B-B-B-B”
These low-level hooligans did not know what backbone was. They only knew how to beg for mercy if they could not win. It was obvious that they had kicked an iron plate.
Gu Zhou looked at Gu Tian in surprise. He did not expect Gu Tian to have the ultimate skill of throwing knives. From the looks of it, he could hit anywhere within 20 meters.
"How should we deal with him?"
Gu Tian asked Gu Zhou.
"Let him lie down too."
Gu Zhou said calmly.
Heavenly Gu didn't say much. He lifted his leg and kicked the burly man's knee. Then, he punched the burly man's ribs at the waist and instantly placed him on the ground, causing him to scream in pain.
After leaving the alley where the screams were incessant, Gu Zhou sighed in his heart that this era was really f * cking chaotic. From Qingshan Town to the county town to do business, he encountered demons and ghosts on the way and even ruffians blocking his way to the city.
If he was alone, he would most likely be doomed.
"Be careful! Cautious! Be more cautious!"
Gu Zhou chanted the three mantras again.
It was already night time. Gu Zhou did not plan to hurry on his way. He was going to find an inn to stay the night and go to Shang Qing tomorrow to take a look.
"Brother Zhou, look at the woman we met on the way.”They found an inn and were about to enter when Gu Jun pointed at the entrance of the inn.
Gu Zhou looked over and saw that it was the woman they had met on the way. She had changed into a long dress that could drag the ground. The dress was like a light cloud that wrapped around her curvaceous body.
At this moment, a pale-faced rich man was walking into the inn with his arm around her waist.
As if she could feel Gu Zhou's gaze, the woman smiled and nodded at him.
“艹! Let's change to another inn!"
Gu Zhou cursed in a low voice. He did not want to stay in the same inn as a woman who was suspected to be a demon. At the same time, he glanced at the pale-faced man with pity.
Sleeping with demons and ghosts for a night was probably over.
Not many people were as lucky as Qiu Sheng. Being taken by the gorgeous ghost only meant spending time with him, but it didn't take his life.
Gu Tian and the others obviously did not have the intention to meddle in other people's business. They knew how to fight. They could deal with people, but they knew nothing about dealing with ghosts.
It was better to avoid trouble.
…………
Shangqing Monastery was located on Hidden Dragon Mountain outside the county town. The mountain was not steep, but it was also lush with trees, flowing springs, and surrounded by clouds. It was a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers.
Originally, Hidden Dragon Mountain was just an ordinary mountain. However, ever since a Taoist temple was built five years ago, this small mountain became beautiful. According to experts, the feng shui had become better.
According to the people in the county town, ever since the Shangqing Temple was built, there would always be lightning flashing in the mountains, regardless of spring, summer, autumn, or winter. Strangely, although there was lightning falling, there was no fire in the mountains.
There were also believers who swore that they had seen the lightning fall into the Taoist temple. For a moment, the surrounding people thought that the Taoist temple's master was a person who had attained the Tao and could control lightning.
After they went out, there was an endless stream of people coming to worship and offer incense.
There weren't many Taoist priests in the Taoist temple, only three to five.
When Gu Zhou and his group entered the Taoist temple, there were only two Taoists in the temple. One was in his thirties and looked ordinary. The other was a Taoist priest in his twenties. He was handsome and had a gentle demeanor. However, there was a hint of evil between his brows that made people feel that he had evil intentions.
A young woman was offering incense. The young Taoist priest seemed to be looking straight at her, but in fact, his peripheral vision never left the sensitive parts of the young woman.
Seeing Gu Zhou and the others enter, the young Taoist finally retracted his gaze and greeted them."Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate."
Gu Zhou did not show any expression on his face. He cupped his hands and bowed."Taoist priest, I am from Qingshan Town. I heard that Taoist priest Shi Jian of Shangqing Monastery has profound Taoist skills and that his talismans are effective. Therefore, I came to worship the mountain and burn incense to seek the protection of Taoist ancestor.”
" Unfortunately, the Abbey Dean is cultivating in seclusion and doesn't see outsiders..."
The young Taoist was very polite, but before he could finish his sentence, something heavy was suddenly stuffed into his hand.
Ten dollars!
A warm smile appeared on the young Daoist's face as he changed the topic.""But Young Master is sincere in seeking the talisman. How can the Shangqing Temple let Young Master go back empty-handed?”
"Please wait a moment."
With that, the young Taoist turned around and walked inside.
Although the Shangqing Monastery's incense offerings were not bad, most of the people who came to worship were ordinary people. They would worship the mountain, burn incense, pray for peace, and throw some money into the Merit Box.
Looking at Gu Zhou's clothes, there were four burly men behind him. They were obviously disciples of rich families and were generous. It seemed like a big deal.
How could he let it go!
Gu Zhou smiled as he watched the young Taoist disappear. Money could make the world go round, and the Taoist temple was no exception.
Five minutes later, the young Taoist came out and led Gu Zhou in.
"What is your name, Daoist Priest?"
Gu Zhou followed behind him and asked.
"My common name is Shi Shaojian."
Gu Zhou immediately recalled the memories related to this fellow. He had learned Daoist techniques, but his heart was not right. He had raped other people's wives and daughters, committed crimes, and died in the hands of Akiyama Wencai, causing Shi Jian and Ninth Uncle to go all out.
Under Shi Shaojian's guidance, Gu Zhou saw the famous Shi Jian.
"Heavenly Lord of the Immeasurable, I'm Shi Jian, the leader of the High Clarity Temple!”
Shi Jian sat cross-legged on the futon under the Three Pristines Temple. His every word was like thunder. Gu Zhou could feel his bones shaking along with his voice.
Was this Shi Jian?
Gu Zhou sized him up. He did not look very old, not even fifty years old. He was wearing a Chinese-style shirt. Unlike Shi Shaojian, his eyes were ordinary, but he had an inexplicable majestic aura that made people admire him at first sight.
Even if he didn't have any ability, he could still become a master with this kind of temperament, not to mention Shi Jian had real ability.
