Lord of Puro

Chapter 490: The Light Chasing Group's Background
The old teapot treated everyone to two pots of tea, and the atmosphere in the room became much more lively.

Mosonov had the most positive attitude and he gave a detailed introduction to the Light Chasing Group.

This organization believes in light, not an abstract concept, but a substantial existence. In Prozhou's words, it is the light of heaven.

In addition to the light of heaven itself, they also worshipped the people and objects that had been illuminated by the light of heaven.

Those who are illuminated by the light of heaven will accumulate a large amount of Taoist affinity and have the basic conditions to enter the Tao in a short period of time. In the eyes of the members of the Light-Chasing Group, these are the ones favored by light.

Objects that are illuminated by sunlight will also possess a large amount of dark energy, which can be used as a guide for practitioners to enter the Taoist sect and is an important material for them to become dark energy practitioners.

This is somewhat similar to Provo.

"Where do you get the powder for getting started?"

Mosonov shook his head and said, "In Rafsha, there is no entry powder like in Pro Province."

Li Banfeng didn't understand: "Without the powder, how did the people survive in the sunlight?"

"Almost no one can survive. In the last moments of their lives, they will turn toward the light and complete the blossoming of their lives. This is the light's favor to them, and it will be recorded in our scriptures."

"Blooming," Li Banfeng sneered, "why don't you just say explode?"

"Not everyone has completed the blossoming of life. Our Pope, after being illuminated by the light, miraculously survived. So he is destined to be our leader and the messenger of light who leads us forward."

"Who is the Pope?"

"I have seen him many times, but I have never seen his true face. He would use different methods to cover his face.
He can speak many languages, each of which is very authentic. I can't tell where he is from.

He is the messenger chosen by the Light, he is omniscient and omnipotent, following him is the greatest honor of my life."

Being omniscient and omnipotent is definitely nonsense. If he really had such abilities, he wouldn't have set up a light-chasing group to cause trouble in Pro Province.

But the daylight came in. Without the medicine powder, it was not easy to survive in this situation, which at least proved that this person had a very special physical condition.

"Since there is no powder, how did you determine the Dao Sect?"

Mosonov replied: "We don't have what you call a gate. Under the leadership of the Pope, we have bypassed that conservative and rigid path. What we have is real controllable power.

After we have been exposed to enough light power, we will improve our abilities according to our own wishes. Although the process is a bit difficult, we will not be constrained by any conditions. Every bit of power we gain comes from our beliefs and pursuits. "

Hong Ying asked the record player: "Xiao Wan, what did this person say? Why can't I understand?"

The record player sneered, "What he meant is that their people have accumulated enough Dao affinity, but they don't have the introductory medicine powder. They practice according to their own preferences, and the level of their practice depends entirely on luck."

Mosonov said: "This is not based on luck, but on the guidance of light."

Hong Ying sneered, "This foreign devil is really talking nonsense, and he only needs guidance? I have seen many people like this in the past. They all have no money to buy entry-level medicine, and I don't know where they get some strange and unusual skills, and they force themselves to learn Taoist techniques.
Nine out of ten of these people fail to learn anything, and many even lose their lives.”

"This is the light filtering us out..." As he spoke, Mosonov dug his fingers into the ground, as if trying to ease his embarrassment.

He wasn't actually that embarrassed.

He was dipping his hands in his own blood and writing runes on the ground.

Li Banfeng roughly understood the situation of the Light-Chasing Group. They were a group of dark energy practitioners who did not use medicinal powder, had no Taoist boundaries, and did not follow Taoist rules.

Although their practice methods were a bit crude, Li Banfeng did not look down on this group of people. Their practice methods had also been honed over the years, and they must have accumulated a lot of experience and methods.

Just like Dick Chen, he is a sleep cultivator but has no level of cultivation. He should have used the cultivation method of the Rafsha country. His individual combat capability is not too strong, but his sleep cultivation technique is very outstanding. It is not only powerful, but also extremely concealed, and can play a huge role on the battlefield.

But since Dick Chen was from Purozhou, why did he choose the practice method of the Rafsha people?
"Do you know Dick Chen?"

Mosonov nodded and said, "He is the bishop of the Pro Camp, and all his followers are from Pro Province."

“Why should people from Prozhou join your organization?”

"They want to chase the light, but their poor family background means they don't have the money to buy those luxurious medicines. They don't want to become low-level mutants, so they chose us. We will give them a chance, a truly fair chance, and let them embark on the road to chasing the light."

It sounds a bit confusing, but it is actually very simple to translate.

Some people want to become cultivators, but they don't have the money to buy the entry-level medicinal powder, nor do they want to go to Santoucha to practice physical cultivation, so they choose this seemingly low-cost method of practice.

Of course, this is not the whole reason. Jin Yuankang, the old house repairman of Tiemenbao, has also joined the Light Chasing Group. What his reason is is still unclear for the time being.

"Are all your men from Rafsha?"

"Yes, we are called the Imperial Camp, and our followers are all from the Empire." Mosonov had a slightly proud look on his face, and he was secretly drawing runes on the ground.

He had already finished drawing one of them. As long as he finished drawing three runes, the magic circle would be activated and he would have a chance to counterattack.

Others were also secretly drawing runes. One more stroke would increase the power of the magic circle.

Li Banfeng asked: "In Rafsha, do you live among ordinary people, or in a place like Pro Province?"

"We come from a sleeping land, and we are people who are not accepted by the world." These words seemed to hit Mosonov's sore spot. He gritted his teeth and lowered his head, looking somewhat painful.

In fact, he was secretly speeding up his fingers, and the second rune was almost finished.

Li Banfeng asked, "How are you living in the Land of Sleep?"

Mosonov sighed, “The suffering we endured in the Land of Sleep is unimaginable to people in other places.”

"So you plan to occupy Pro State and find a good living environment for yourself?"

Mosonov did not deny it: "This is the order of the leader and the wish of the believers."

Li Banfeng said: "You also opened a Conqueror Restaurant, a restaurant, and the name is so annoying. It seems that you have not been beaten enough."

Mosonov did not retort and let Li Banfeng say whatever he wanted. The third rune was already half drawn. As long as he was given another three minutes, the magic circle would be activated immediately.

Li Banfeng continued to ask: "How many battalions do you have in Puro State?"

"There is another camp called the Boundless Camp. In the Boundless Camp there are people from all over the place. They deliberately ignore the boundaries of their bloodlines and recruit what they call elite members."

Wujie Camp, this reminded Li Banfeng of Wujie Hospital.

"Isn't their bishop Tretik?"

Mosonov shook his head and said, "It's not him. This man is very strange. He named the hospital Wujie, which led some of our followers to seek refuge with him in the hospital. But those who went to the hospital never came back."

This is something that Cuitik can do. It seems that he has done some research on the Light Chaser, including physical research.

Mosonov went on to say, "The bishop of the Boundless Camp is called Grubb. He is currently mainly active in the Yesong Bridge area. His purpose in going to Yesong Bridge is still unknown."

What Mosonov said was indeed the truth. He had to try his best to gain Li Qi's trust at this moment, because the third rune was almost drawn.

After activating the magic circle, he will immediately use the power of the magic circle to kill Li Qi, then occupy this strange room and take away the rare treasures in this room.

With this harvest, he can make his Imperial Camp the most powerful camp under the Light Chasing Group, and his status will rise to the head of the bishops.

If I'm luckier, Xuansheng Honglian might also be in this room. By that time...

Li Banfeng poured a pot of tea on the ground and washed away all the runes.

Mosonov stared at Li Banfeng for a long time, and his body trembled for a long time.

He wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say.

Li Banfeng didn't have anything else to ask: "Madam, let's start the meal."

The record player snorted and said, "This group of hairy ghosts has a strong smell. I don't want to eat them. Yingying, you can eat their souls instead."

Hong Ying shook her gun and said, "I don't eat this. It stinks and I'm afraid Qilang will dislike it at night."

"Bah! Who said your husband slept with you at night?" The record player raised the stick to hit her, but he didn't want to embarrass Hong Ying in front of outsiders.

"All of you, stay busy, Projector. You suffered a loss at the previous family dinner, so you should eat your fill this time."

The projector sighed softly: "This taste is not artistic..."

The record player said angrily, "Eat quickly, or you'll get beaten!"

The family started eating in disgust. Mosonov wanted to lead everyone in a resistance, but he was scalded by the old teapot and could not move.

……

Li Banfeng returned to Xiaoyaowu, found Xiao Yeci, and asked about Ye Songqiao.

When talking about his hometown, Xiao Yeci was very excited: "Yesongqiao is a good place. Although it is just a town, it has a strong scent of books and many schools and libraries. Now it is almost summer, and it is a good time for scenery."

Li Banfeng said: "Then let's go and take a look!"

When he was told to go and take a look, Xiao Yeci lowered his head and remained silent.

Li Banfeng frowned and asked, "What's wrong? What are you afraid of?"

Xiao Yeci laughed dryly: "I won't go..."

Lu Chunying knew Xiao Yeci's difficulties. In Ye Songqiao, the life of her and her daughter was too miserable, especially Xiao Yeci, whose reputation was not very good.

But the more this happens, the more we should go back.

"Mom, I just need to go to Ye Song Bridge to take care of my business."

"Do we have business in Ye Song Bridge?"

“Yes, there are some.”

"Oh," Xiao Yeci pursed his lips and said, "Then you can go. I'm not going."

"Mom, what's wrong with us returning home in a respectable manner?"

No matter how Lu Chunying persuaded him, Xiao Yeci refused to go.

Li Banfeng advised Lu Chunying: "Don't make it difficult for your mother. She doesn't want to go home with you. She must have her own difficulties. Hold her down first. I'll find a rope to tie her up."

Lu Chunying asked, "Wouldn't it be too much trouble if I tied him up?"

"It's not difficult, it's forced." Li Banfeng took the rope.

Xiao Yeci shouted, "What are you doing? Why are you tying me up? Don't tie me so tight! Don't, wuwu..."

Li Banfeng blocked Xiao Yeci's mouth, asked his men to buy tickets, and took the train that day to Yesong Bridge.

He Yuxiu went to Ye Songqiao to take care of business, and they happened to go together. The two chatted on the train, and He Yuxiu was quite emotional: "Yesongqiao is a very interesting place, with many mountains, water, trees, and bridges. Girl, am I right?"

Xiao Yeci nodded vigorously.

He Yuxiu added: "But doing business there is meaningless, because there are only a few traders. The rice sellers sell rice all their lives, and the oil sellers sell oil all their lives. Even if a store is a century-old one, there will be no change after so many years."

Xiao Yeci nodded with tears in her eyes.

He Yuxiu sighed, "If I had known that was your hometown, I would have given up the business and handed it over to you and Chunying. I really don't want to do business here anymore, especially your Xiao family's timber business.

Our accountant Lao Sheng tells me every day that I should not do this business anymore. There is a lot of wood in Qiqiu City, and Lao Qi even gave me a forest. I don’t know how to sell so much wood, and it’s not worth it to buy from Ye Songqiao anymore.”

Xiao Yeci's tears fell.

He Yuxiu frowned and said, "Why are you crying? Are you worried about your business? It's okay, I'm just saying that for the sake of our friendship, I have to continue this business."

"Woo woo~" Xiao Yeci cried out.

He Yuxiu said, "Sister, do you have something to say?" Xiao Yeci kept nodding, and He Yuxiu quickly took the cloth out of Xiao Yeci's mouth.

Xiao Yeci panted for a moment and shouted, "Sister Xiu, help me untie it quickly, I'm going to pee my pants!"

"Sister, why didn't you tell me earlier?" He Yuxiu hurriedly untied Xiao Yeci. "Old Seven is really cruel. Why did he tie you up so tightly?
Please bear with it for a while, sister, just for a while, sister, bear with it, bear with it, we will soon... Well, sister, do you have any extra pants?"

……

The train drove for three full days and finally arrived at Yesong Bridge.

After getting off the train, although Xiao Yeci was a little scared, he couldn't hide his excitement to return to his hometown.

There is a lot of water in Yesong Bridge. In the town, there are different ways to go to different places. Some places can be taken by car, some places need to take a boat, and some places need to take a sedan chair. Xiao Yeci walked out of the station and said, "My benefactor, I know an inn. I can go there without taking a boat. It's very close."

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "We can't stay at the inn. Let's go to the market to buy some things first."

"What are you buying?" Xiao Yeci asked while carrying his luggage. "If we don't stay at the inn, are we going to buy a blanket and sleep on the street?"

"Let's go buy a house!"

"How can you buy a house just by going out?"

Lu Chunying said: "I think what Brother Qi said makes sense. We still don't have a house in our hometown."

He Yuxiu said, "I have a house here. Let's live there first. You can't just buy a house."

"It's okay to live with Sister Xiu first, but we have to buy a house." Li Qi asked his men to put the luggage in place first, and then he took Xiao Yeci and Lu Chunying to buy a house.

The town is not big and there are not many good houses. Today, there happen to be two houses for sale, one is the Liang family’s house and the other is the Xiao family’s house.

In the past two years, the business of the Liang family and the Xiao family has been slow, and a lot of their family properties have been sold off.

Lu Chunying fell in love with the Xiao family's house: "Mom, if I remember correctly, this house was used for my uncle's wedding."

Xiao Yeci nodded: "Yes!"

Lu Chunying said: "My uncle hadn't married yet, but my grandfather bought him a house. It was said that he spent 6,000 yuan.
In less than a month, my mother and I were kicked out of the house. How much money did grandpa give you at that time?"

Xiao Yeci lowered his head and said, "I, I forgot..."

"I think I heard you say it once. It's two hundred dollars in Huanguo notes, right? One hundred dollars each for us, mother and daughter."

Xiao Yeci stammered, "After so many years, I can't remember it anymore."

Lu Chunying called the agent and asked him how much he wanted for the house.

The yalang didn't know Lu Chunying, nor did he know the girl's background, but since she asked, he responded politely: "Mr. Xiao offers, seven thousand dollars."

"Oh, the price has gone up," Lu Chunying smiled, "I bought it for 6,000 and sold it for 7,000, which is pretty good. I'll give you a check and you can go to the bank to withdraw the money. I want this house."

Yalang was startled: "Miss, may I ask what your name is?"

"Go tell Mr. Xiao that Xiao Yeci bought this house!"

"Xiao Yeci?" Ya Lang was surprised. "Xiao family, that person..."

He almost told her about Xiao Yeci being kicked out of the house, but he quickly changed the subject and said, "Are you talking about the young lady from the Xiao family?"

Xiao Yeci was a little nervous, and He Yuxiu said beside her: "Sister, when it comes to fighting for face, you must not be timid."

Xiao Yeci took a deep breath, stepped forward and said, "It's me."

Ya Lang didn't dare to say a word. He took the check and went to the bank to verify it was correct. He didn't dare to withdraw the money and took the check to Xiao's house.

The Xiao family was quite happy to hear that the house was sold and the buyer did not bargain. Xiao Jianzhang, the head of the Xiao family, asked, "What is the buyer's surname? Is he a local?"
"He's a local, and he's from the same family as you," Yalang said with a dry laugh, "Your daughter Xiao Yeci bought it."

Upon hearing the three words "Xiao Yeci", Xiao Jianzhang became angry: "What does she want to do?"

Xiao Jianzhang's eldest son Xiao Yucheng stepped forward and said, "Dad, don't get angry yet. Ye Ci is not a simple person now. She took that girl Lu Chunying away and entered the Lu family. Ye Ci is the mother of that child in public!"

"I know about this!" Xiao Jianzhang raised his brows, "No matter what her current status is, she is still my daughter. If she wants to come back, I can let her in. If she dares to act arrogantly in front of me, I will never allow her to do so!
Tell her I won't sell her this house, even if she offers me 10,000 dollars, I won't sell it, even if I burn it down!"

Xiao Jianzhang's first wife, Sun Huiqin, said to Yalang, "Ye Ci is getting more and more unruly as she gets older. Tell her that she doesn't need to come back to visit again. The way she talks, she sounds just like her dead mother. I'm tired of it."

Xiao Yucheng said: "Why are you doing this? If we offend the Lu family, how can we live a good life in the future?"

Xiao Jianzhang said: "We are doing business with the He family. We have no dealings with the Lu family. No matter who is in charge of the Lu family, no matter who comes today, we have to make things clear. I am her father and I cannot bear her anger!"

……

"He said he was upset?" Lu Chunying sneered, "He asked for 7,000 yuan, and we bought it for 7,000 yuan. Who made him upset? What did he get upset about?"

Yalang didn't dare to say more.

Xiao Yeci sighed and said, "In the final analysis, he just didn't think highly of me. I went to see him and told him everything I wanted to say to him back then!"

Lu Yuanxin said, "Madam, don't go. We can talk about this later. I'll go and explain the house to him first. He didn't want it when I gave him seven thousand. Now I'll give him one thousand to see if he will sell it."

He Yuxiu was watching from the side. Lu Yuanxin's personality was really similar to Lu Dongjun. If he was allowed to go, something bad would happen to the Xiao family. The one thousand dollars he got was not for buying a house, but for his life.

"Yuan Xin, you don't have to go either. I'll send someone over." He Yuxiu was not afraid of anyone losing their lives, but she didn't want Xiao Yeci to feel too bad, so she asked the accountant Sheng Shanzhou to go to Xiao's house.

This time, Sheng Shanzhou came to pick up business. When he entered the Xiao family, the Xiao family welcomed him warmly. After checking the quality and price of the wood, Sheng Shanzhou shook his head and said, "Leave these wood to other families. We don't want them anymore."

Xiao Jianzhang panicked: "Master Sheng, what happened? Tell me what's wrong with this wood."

"It's not suitable anywhere," Sheng Shanzhou had long advised He Yuxiu not to do the timber business in Yesongqiao, and today was the perfect time to push the deal aside. "Old Xiao, we've known each other for so many years, let me tell you something. Expand your horizons, broaden your mind, and be more clear about what you do.
Your daughter Xiao Yeci came here with our head of the family. They are as close as real sisters. Your house couldn't be sold, but your daughter bought it. You should go to her house to thank her.

Have you forgotten how you treated him in the first place? After thanking him, you still have to apologize to him!"

Xiao Jianzhang said angrily: "Mr. Sheng, this is not true. I am her father!"

"Oh Master Xiao, you are so powerful when you say this! You are already a father!" Sheng Shanzhou sneered, "You are so capable, so don't grind your teeth at me. You are so old, why do you still want to run this business?"

Sheng Shanzhou stood up and was about to leave, but Xiao Jianzhang quickly stopped him: "Mr. Sheng, I'm not attacking you, I'm..."

"It's even worse if you go after her. Old Xiao, if I were you, I would take the land deed and the house deed to Miss Xiao and give the house to her. Let's see if this matter can be remedied.

If you can find it back, your Xiao family will be able to live a good life in the future. If you can't find it back, from today on, no major family in Pro Province will do business with you. Don't disbelieve it. "

After Sheng Shanzhou left, Xiao Jianzhang sat in the yard with his eyes wide open, sighing continuously.

After thinking for more than two hours, Xiao Jianzhang finally figured it out.

He asked his wife Sun Huiqin to take out the house deeds and land deeds.

Sun Huiqin was dissatisfied: "Master, that is Yucheng's house, why should it be given to that girl?"

Xiao Yucheng said, "Mom, please stop making trouble. This house should have been sold. We really let Ye Ci down in the beginning."

"Who has wronged her?" Sun Huiqin shouted, "She has ruined our family's reputation. Isn't it right to kick her out of the house?"

Xiao Yucheng sighed, "You know who ruined the reputation. Don't mention it again. If you mention it again, you will be slapping the Lu family in the face!"

After taking the house deed and the land deed, Xiao Yucheng stuffed them into Xiao Jianzhang's hands and said, "Dad, you can deliver them to the people."

"You can send it to her," Xiao Jianzhang shook his head and said, "I can't bow down in front of her."

Xiao Yucheng sighed, "It's useless if I send it. They may not accept it."

As expected, Xiao Yucheng sent the land deed and the house deed over, but he was sent back without even seeing Xiao Yeci.

"Dad, Ye Ci and Chunying asked you two to go with me to find her."

"She's rebelling!" Xiao Jianzhang was not convinced and contacted his relatives and friends, trying to sell the timber from other families, but no one dared to take over.

In desperation, Xiao Jianzhang took the house deed and land deed, brought his wife, and went to see Xiao Yeci.

This time, both Xiao Yeci and Lu Chunying showed up.

The two of them lived in He Yuxiu's house and sat in the living room playing cards with He Yuxiu. Xiao Jianzhang, Sun Huiqin and Xiao Yucheng stood in the yard for two hours.

Lu Chunying looked at Xiao Jianzhang and finally spoke: "Grandpa, I don't remember much about the year you drove my mother and me away, but I heard from others that my mother cried for a whole day and you were too lazy to even look at her. Now I've made you two stand here for two hours. Isn't that a bit too easy for you?"

Xiao Jianzhang suppressed his anger and lowered his head and said, "At that time, I had my own difficulties..."

"What's the hardship? Tell me. Is it my mother who brought shame to your Xiao family, or is it me who brought shame to your Xiao family?"

Xiao Yucheng pulled Xiao Jianzhang from behind and reminded him not to talk nonsense.

Xiao Jianzhang sighed and said, "It's not easy to keep this family business. Everything I do is for this family! Ye Ci, if you hate, just hate me. As long as you leave the Xiao family's business, I am willing to die here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Jianzhang was about to hit the stone, but Sun Huiqin and Xiao Yucheng quickly stopped him from behind: "Dad, you can't do that, our family can't live without you!"

He Yuxiu lit a cigarette and said with a smile, "Don't stop him. Let me see if Lao Xiao has the guts to die here."

Xiao Jianzhang panicked and looked at his wife and son, signaling them to stop him.

The whole family was crying their hearts out, but they were still acting. Xiao Yeci turned around and finally spoke, "Dad."

"Ye Ci!" Xiao Jianzhang quickly agreed.

Xiao Yeci said, "I grew up with my mother and entered the Xiao family when I was nine years old. My mother asked me to call you dad, but you never agreed. You look down on my mother and me. Why are you looking for me now?"

Xiao Jianzhang said with tears in his eyes: "I do this for the Xiao family."

Xiao Yeci couldn't understand: "You look down on me, but for the Xiao family? What's the logic behind this?"

Xiao Jianzhang sighed, "Ye Ci, what happened back then is all in the past, I can't remember it, why are you still bringing it up?
I only ask you to give the Xiao family a chance to survive. If you really can't let go of this knot in your heart, you can do whatever you want to me!"

Xiao Yeci nodded and said, "Okay, that's what you said, I can do whatever I want to you."

Xiao Jianzhang looked back at his wife and son, signaling them to stop him at the critical moment.

Xiao Yeci took out his wallet and pulled out a stack of Huanguo notes: "When you kicked us out of the house, you gave me two hundred yuan. Now I want to show my filial piety and pay you back tenfold. I'll give you two thousand yuan.
You leave the Xiao family and find a way to make a living, and this matter will be over."

"I..." Xiao Jianzhang turned around and signaled his wife and children to stop him.

Sun Huiqin didn't stop him.

Xiao Yucheng didn't stop him either.

They both could accept this result.

But Xiao Jianzhang couldn't accept it: "This, this, this is not okay, I am doing this for the Xiao family, the Xiao family can't live without me."

Lu Chunying couldn't hold back her laughter.

He Yuxiu laughed out loud.

Xiao Yeci breathed a sigh of relief, the knot in his heart that had been there for many years was finally untied.

……

Li Banfeng sat in the boat and looked at the scenery on both sides. He had to say that Yesong Bridge was really beautiful, as beautiful as a painting, with neat buildings, all black tiles and white walls. The mountains in the distance were looming in the mist, with simple lines and profound artistic conception. If it weren't for the occasional sight of people walking on the stone road, one would really think that this scenery was sketched with pen and ink.

When they reached the entrance of an alley, Li Banfeng paid the boat fare and went ashore.

Deep in the alley, there is a two-story building. Li Banfeng has found clues these days that the bishop of the Boundless Camp of the Light-Chasing Group lives there.
