Chapter 131 Spiritual Religion
Usually, this store is run by Cudi alone. It is already a bit difficult for him to handle so many customers at once. But when Gu Jianqiu arrived, everyone got so excited chatting that they even forgot about buying power weapons, leaving him alone. If it weren't for the fact that Gu Jianqiu was a big customer, Cudi would have gotten angry and kicked him out.

Gu Yiqiu was still reasonable. He bowed to Gu Jianqiu and said, "Then we won't disturb you and Junior Sister Le Mei from reminiscing about the past."

"Brother Yiqiu is too polite."

Seeing this, everyone decided not to continue to argue, so they all greeted Gu Jianqiu and then went to find Cudi to pay the bill.

Cudi then relaxed his expression and checked the bills for each candidate one by one.

"You're worth five hundred thousand baht."

"Well, this weapon doesn't accept Jasmine Baht, only Cosmic Baht. No, I don't have foreign currency exchange business here."

"There is a discount now. If you add 10,000 baht, you will get a modified steam blade. It is a free gift, yes. The 10,000 baht is another discount. It means if you don't use this discount, you will get another set of modified steam blades. No, the two discounts cannot be used together."

Fu Lemei looked at Gu Jianqiu and shrugged: "Looks like I'll have to wait a while."

"You don't have to rush to make a decision. There are training facilities on the third floor of this store. You can give it a try first."

Gu Jianqiu pointed at the phoenix eye on Fu Lemei's stick.

"The spherical devices at both ends are heart-phase impact hammers, which were originally used to rivet the armor of the cosmic divine machine. So strictly speaking, the Phoenix Blood Type is not a famous type. It is a combination of the traditional Haitang craftsmanship and the Ji Li weapons industry. It is an energy-charging weapon, so it is a little more difficult to use. The advantage is that it is sturdy and powerful. It may be a little difficult to get used to it at first, but with your attainments in equipment, you will be able to master it soon after a little practice."

There is no martial artist who doesn't love weapons. After listening to Gu Jianqiu's introduction, Fu Lemei was immediately eager to try it.

Just as she was about to say something to Gu Jianqiu, a shrill control alarm sounded from far away, and the high-pitched whistle made everyone raise their heads subconsciously. Then the sky suddenly darkened, and the dark night sky was mixed with chaotic and unclear starlight, and it was almost impossible to see the faces of other people in the store.

"Don't panic."

As a local, Kudi obviously has a lot of experience with alarms. He has a familiar expression on his face: "It's the pirates in the blackout zone. They have this kind of thing every two or three months. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

He yawned, tears welling up from the corners of his eyes: "Go ahead and fight. After today, I can live in peace for another month."

"What is a blackout strip? Are there any pirates left in McDonald's?"

Gu Yi Qiu frowned in the darkness.

Cudi looked nonchalant: "It's normal for a satellite fortress like this to have a few blackout strips, which is hundreds of years old. If there are blackout strips, there will be pirates."

Gu Yi Qiu recalled the scene when the ancient ship he was on sailed into the McDonald Space Station. There were indeed many large irregular black blocks like stains on the edge of the magnificent space station, occupying about one-fifth of the entire space station. That should be the so-called blackout zone.

After about two or three seconds, everyone's eyes had adjusted to the darkness. Gu Jianqiu immediately walked out of the store and looked up at the sky. Under the black night, airships and helicopters could be seen shuttling back and forth, with red ribbons lighting up from time to time. It was obvious that the exchange of fire between the two sides was very intense.

Dark red flyers were falling from the sky. Gu Jianqiu stretched out his hand to catch one. On it was a picture of a bright red eight-armed celestial being with a graceful figure, a necklace around her neck, and bare breasts. However, above her neck was not a head, but a ball of colorful light.

On the back were some incomplete qi-regulating formulas, which seemed to be some incomplete electrocardiographic method. Gu Jianqiu frowned after just two glances and tore the flyer in his hand into pieces.

Soon, Fu Lemei also followed out and looked up at the sky curiously. Twenty-two years ago, the battle to defend Chongdao broke out in Jiangning, and the scene was much more spectacular than this, but Fu Lemei was just born at that time and didn't remember it.

"The pirates here are also spiritualists."

When Gu Jianqiu looked up, Shukaku was holding a flyer and muttering to himself.

"Master, what is Lingjiao? I have never heard of it in Jiangning."

Hearing Master Shukaku mumbling to himself, Fu Lemei asked curiously.

"It's an illegal religion that's been severely cracked down by the Empire. No need to ask. If you see it, stay away from it. If you can't avoid it, don't hold back. Most of the spiritualists are inhumane."

Shukaku threw the flyer away.

Because of the prevalence of celestial beings and cosmic spirituality, the era of large-scale development was the era when illegal religions were most rampant. Most of the extreme anti-humanist thugs were from this background. Even the Yanwuhe, which had the loosest organization, the most complex members, and the most tolerant thoughts, strictly prohibited its disciples from believing in these illegal religions of unknown origin. It is not an exaggeration to say that these religions are the public enemy of mankind. "The Spiritual Religion emerged at the end of the 18th century. The founder was originally a mixed-race person with complex beliefs and a genuine celestial official. After a wormhole trip, he claimed to be enlightened and founded the Spiritual Religion."

Seeing that Fu Lemei was a little confused, Gu Jianqiu took the initiative to explain to Fu Lemei: "When the Lingjiao was first established, it was boycotted by all countries because of the bloody sacrificial rituals. Not long after, the leader of the Lingjiao suddenly died, and the so-called "holy objects" brought back from the wormhole were also scattered everywhere.

"But the Lingjiao did not decline because of this. Instead, the number of believers increased rapidly over the past few decades, and its influence grew day by day. Various terrorist actions under the banner of the Lingjiao also showed a straight upward trend. It soon became one of the most harmful cults in the 19th century. Although it was jointly combated by countries around the world and the Doumu Palace, it was never eliminated."

At the Yiyuan Dog Farm in Jiangning, Gu Jianqiu once identified an illegal firearm that was produced by the criminal fortress "Hualong Zao". The boss of Hualong Zao, Danzhu, was the most famous spiritual cult leader and terrorist criminal in the 19th century.

"Master Shukaku is right. If you encounter a spiritualist, you must not show mercy."

When Shukaku saw Tani Jianqiu mention him, he nodded coldly but did not respond. Instead, he greeted Xiaoqing, who looked bitter, and turned to go into the store.

Fu Lemei hugged her shoulders and thought: "Jianqiu, you are not that old. Why do I feel like you know a lot?"

Just as Gu Jianqiu was about to speak, Fu Lemei imitated his tone and said, "You are a sophomore student in the Natural History Department of Jiangning Normal School. I have heard of you many times."

Fu Lemei tilted her head: "If you don't want to say it, forget it."

Gu Jianqiu chuckled and looked up at the fierce battle in the night. He remembered the bold raid plan that suddenly popped up in his mind when he first entered the McDonald hangar.

If there is a local pirate gang cooperating...

No, no, probably not.

If such a vicious incident had happened in the satellite fortress of the mother planet in the previous life, there is no reason why I would have no memory of it at all.

This is just a commercial satellite. Although it has developed trade, it is strategically insignificant. There are seven or eight similar satellite fortresses around the mother star alone. If we change to high-alert military port satellites such as Xuwei and Yinwei, Gu Jianqiu can remember that many high-intensity offensive and defensive battles have broken out in history over the competition for these satellite fortresses.

But for some reason, Gu Jianqiu always felt a little uneasy.

After all, this is still the home planet, and the satellite front is close at hand. It is unlikely that there will be any vicious star criminals. The most likely dangerous person to stay in McDonald is...

He recalled the land-based sky soldiers that soared into the air from the seashore, and the threatening electric current that locked onto his heart.

Gao Liuhun? Even if those deserters really stayed here, would they really have the guts to do so? After all, this is a satellite fortress with a million people.

"Le Mei, what model of divine machine did Doumu Palace send you this time? Is the leader the only one, Master Shukaku? Does she have a Level II Celestial Official's license?"

The value of the Celestial Official license is still very high. Those who can pass the Level II Celestial Official exam are basically the best in the electrocardiogram range of forty to sixty.

"It's the Liangzhu ancient ship that departs from Nanhua Prefecture every year. Doumu Palace has booked an independent unit. There are about 2,000 people on the ship, right? Only Master Shukaku is there, but she doesn't have a Class II license."

The Liangzhu ancient ship is a large civilian equipment that travels back and forth on a fixed route every year. It has no combat capability and has at most a few cannons on board to intimidate pirates. It is unknown how long it has not been used.

Most of the aircraft received in the commercial station hangar of the near-Earth satellite are of this type of commercial aircraft. Gu Jianqiu is not surprised by this. However, Doumu Palace occasionally uses combat aircraft to pick up candidates from the mother planet, so Gu Jianqiu asked this question.

Gu Jianqiu thought about it and reminded Fu Lemei: "The space station may not be peaceful these days, so you should not wander around. Leave as soon as the radio storm is over."

"Hey, why do you say that suddenly?"

"I can't really say, it's just my intuition. Speaking of which, I don't know the Taoist priest Shukaku of Zhenwu. Have I offended her in any way?"

Gu Jianqiu frowned and said, "Although I can't tell from her appearance, I always feel that she has an indescribable aura towards me. Perhaps it can be called murderous aura?"

Fu Lemei finally couldn't help laughing out loud. She gestured to come over. Gu Jianqiu didn't understand what she meant and leaned his head over.

The girl whispered softly in Gu Jianqiu's ear. Gu Jianqiu understood the whole story and finally realized it.
