Mechanical Pioneer Under One Person

Standing beside them was the 'Cloud'.

As the only person still standing, even though he was wearing a mask, everyone could see that this 'Cloud' was on the verge of collapse, and he kept muttering, "They are all still alive."

Liu Ke looked at the people around him and the expressions on their faces, and suddenly he understood what the world of "aliens" was.

Just like what was written in the stories of Jin Yong and Gu Long, this martial arts world was in turmoil simply because of a mysterious "martial arts secret book" - the "Tongtian Lu".

Even in modern times, when so-called 'secret books and secret techniques' can only be used within the circle of extraordinary people, it is still the same...

Liu Ke sighed, then glanced at Xu San and asked, "Third Brother, they...the little Xi should be fine. As for Xiao Xiao..."

After receiving Liu Ke's reminder, Xu San immediately contacted his assistant. After communicating with Lu Jin, they prepared to send the two injured people to the company base at the foot of the mountain to be treated by a specialized doctor.

Before the stretcher team left, Liu Ke took another look with his artificial eye and said, "Third brother, there's something wrong with Xiao Xiao's broken arm. If our doctor can't heal him..."

"Tell him, I can heal him. Although it may be a little different from his previous physical body."

"But, at the moment, it's not bad..."

Chapter 145 The end of the incident

If we talk about this farce in detail, although it was the so-called "all-out attack on the mountain", not many of the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain and the employees of the company died, and most of them suffered some minor injuries.

However, the situation of Quan Xing, the initiator of the raid, was more serious. Judging from the ratio of casualties, the losses were not small.

Of course, the reason for this is quite simple: every Taoist master in Longhu Mountain practices the Golden Light Mantra. This technique is primarily used to protect the body and prolong life, and while its offensive capabilities are difficult to assess, its defensive capabilities are undoubtedly formidable.

The company, on the other hand, has professional team combat skills, is familiar with group combat, and is equipped with special field doctors to provide timely assistance.

Therefore, the tragic situation of Xiao Xiao and Xi, one with a broken arm and the other with flesh torn apart on his chest due to cuts, was quite rare in the "righteous camp", which made everyone present feel depressed.

Not long after, Ling, Bai Shixue, Canglong and others also hurried over. Although they did not see Xiao Xiao and Xi who had been sent for emergency treatment, they heard a general idea from Yun and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Although they also heard that Liu Ke had the "ability" to reattach his arm, no one took it seriously and only regarded it as words of comfort.

Seeing that they didn't believe him, Liu Ke just scratched his head and said nothing. After all, this reaction was too normal.

What's more, his so-called method was not to simply reattach Xiao Xiao's arm, which was a little eroded at the broken end, but to find another way and directly install a "prosthesis" for the other party.

After all, a multifunctional arm prosthesis that could be used as a finger was much better than a severed arm. At least, Xiao Xiao's breathing exercised less on the arm meridians, so it didn't affect anything.

Of course, saying, "I'll make Xiao Xiao a prosthetic limb, it's definitely better than a natural arm!" sounds strange and a bit crazy.

Even for the strange people in the world who generally do not attach importance to academic qualifications, it sounds "unscientific" and not very convincing.

-

In fact, having said that, there is a prosthetic girl named Gao who is currently present and she actually has a prosthetic body that can be used as a "finished product display" to increase the persuasiveness of Liu Ke's speech.

but

Liu Ke also had no intention of letting Gao Yushan stand out and be the conspicuous bag.

After all, a prosthetic is a prosthetic, and the body is the body. Replacing half of one's body with a prosthetic is not a good thing in any way, and there's no need to show it off to others just to increase "credibility."

When Lu Linglong's friends finished their work, they packed up their bags and went to the local base to check on Xiao Xiao's situation.

After the young people in their small group left, the scene in the entire Taoist temple complex suddenly became much quieter. Only some older and calm Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain and staff from Nadutong were left cleaning up the gravel, soil and sand.

……

"Huh, it's finally over."

Seeing that the situation was becoming clearer, Mr. Xu San glanced at Feng Baobao and others around him, and then he also showed a relaxed expression.

Although the joint action of Nadutong and Lu Jin caused chaos in Longhu Mountain and many people were injured, the enemy was powerful and this was inevitable.

On the contrary, being able to capture such a large number of Quan Xing at one time is very beneficial both for "harmony in the underworld" and "boosting the company's reputation."

Therefore, Xu San, who had been in a bad mood since last night, now even started to quietly make Soviet-level jokes about the people around him.

Of course, the humorous effect of cold jokes varies from person to person. Except for Liu Ke, whose face turned red and he almost laughed to death, others just felt it was as cold as the north wind.

Just as Nadutong and his group were chatting and opening the 'spiritual champagne', enjoying the 'garbage time' of the battle as victors, the old Taoist priest slowly walked up behind them.

Seeing this, Xu San, as the person with the highest title and position among all the people present, quickly led a few people to greet the old Taoist priest.

After greeting, Mr. Xu San said with a somewhat apologetic look on his face, "Old man, the Quan Xing on the mountain has been almost cleared out."

"But I'm truly sorry. We were unprepared this time and didn't expect it to turn out like this."

At this point, the old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "I don't blame you. After all, these people haven't caused any trouble on a large scale for decades. Not to mention you, even I almost forgot about it."

"How crazy can they be?"

After saying this, the old Taoist priest looked up at the young men beside him and said, "Mr. Liu Ke, I'm sorry, but the mountain hasn't been quiet yet. Let's postpone our conversation to tomorrow at noon."

Then, seeing Liu Ke nod in agreement, he looked at Zhang Chulan and said, "Chulan, come with me."

Zhang Chulan nodded after hearing this, and followed the old Taoist priest for a few more steps to a secluded place.

The old Taoist priest glanced at Zhang Chulan, who looked rather nervous, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why are you so nervous?"

After the old Taoist priest finished speaking, he saw that Zhang Chulan was still looking down, so he shook his head and continued, "As I said just now, there are still many things on the mountain that have not been resolved. You know all about it. Let's not... waste time on rambling about this and that."

"Chu Lan, let me be frank with you, your master. Do you accept my position as Heavenly Master?"

Zhang Chulan, who had already been unable to raise his eyes, lowered his gaze even more to his feet after hearing this. After a long moment, he said with sweat dripping down his face, "Master, you haven't told me the answer to my question yet."

"Answer me, and I'll tell you..."

After hearing this, the old Taoist priest frowned and said, "Huai Yi has a smart child. The answer is..."

"I'm afraid you've already guessed it."

Hearing this, Zhang Chulan knelt down, lowered his head and dared not raise it. He asked, "Can I still call you Master from now on?"

The old Taoist sighed softly, then helped him up and said, "Get up, little one."

"Eh, after all this fuss, it's all in vain."

Zhang Chulan felt a pang of pain in his nose and a tightness in his chest when he heard what he said. He said, "Master, I..."

Seeing his expression, Zhang Zhiwei knew exactly what he was going to say, so he interrupted him, "Forget it, don't say it. Since you've already guessed it, you should also understand my painstaking efforts. Take care of yourself from now on."

"As long as you don't do anything evil in the future, I will always be your mentor."

After that, the old Taoist priest continued, "The mountain is too chaotic. Let's go down tomorrow. The company treats you well and thinks highly of you. With them protecting you, you won't have much trouble."

At this point, the old Taoist priest thought for a moment and said, "If you encounter something that the company can't solve, come to me."

"If I'm busy or not here, go find Liu Ke. He has the ability and is willing to help you."

Zhang Chulan first said "hmm", then felt something was wrong and said with an awkward smile: "Master, you are joking, you..."

After hearing this, the old Taoist priest smiled, patted his head, and said, "You are really too smart. This is not a good thing."

"The secrets of heaven are hard to predict, who can..."

……

Just as the old Taoist priest and Zhang Chulan were talking, they heard a "bang" sound, which interrupted the conversation directly.

The two of them looked up and saw that it was a Taoist priest in a dark blue robe who was knocked flying towards them.

Just when Zhang Chulan was puzzled, the person who attacked the Taoist priest came over with the gait of a tiger and a dragon.

This person is not unfamiliar. He was a referee at the "Luotian Dajiao" in Longhu Mountain a few days ago. He is a high-ranking Taoist priest in Longhu Mountain, Taoist Rongshan.

Although Taoist Master Rongshan and Taoist Master Lingyu are both disciples of the old Taoist Master, he did not wear a white Taoist robe to show off. Instead, he wore a regular blue Taoist robe with his trouser legs and sleeves rolled up, which was quite down-to-earth.

When the old Taoist priest saw that it was him, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, which had become smaller due to age, and asked, "Why are you here?"

When Taoist Master Rongshan heard his master's question, he smiled brightly and pointed at the 'Taoist Master' he had just knocked away and said, "Master, you see, this guy is Quan Xing. He just disguised himself as a mountain man and attacked me, but I saw through him immediately."

"Hehe! There are more fellow disciples on the mountain, but who doesn't I know?"

The old Taoist frowned after hearing this and said, "Didn't I ask you to look after Old Tian? Why are you here? The mountain is in chaos now, and Old Tian has no ability to protect himself. What if..."

------

Liu Ke, Er Zhuang and Xu Sanben were sitting on the projector benches chatting. When they saw the old Taoist priest, Zhang Chulan and Taoist Rongshan running over in a hurry, they looked at each other and quickly followed them.

Along the way, the old Taoist priest kept scolding Taoist Rongshan for his unauthorized actions, which made the atmosphere quite tense and serious. It was the first time that Liu Ke and others saw the old Taoist priest like this, so they did not dare to interrupt.

After about six or seven minutes, they rushed to the remote courtyard where Master Tian was staying. Taoist Master Rongshan, who had been defending himself, was also a little surprised because the courtyard where Master Tian was staying was too quiet.

It was obvious to the naked eye that the tall man was a little panicked. While shouting "Uncle Tian" loudly, he kept muttering to himself, "It must be okay, it's okay."

Until he opened the courtyard gate, and then opened the door of the Taoist temple.

I saw my fellow disciple lying on the ground, unconscious.

I saw Mr. Tian, ​​still sitting on the small four-wheeled cart, with a needle stuck in his eyebrow, and he was already dead.

----

The next day, Longhu Mountain held a simple ritual to send off Taoist Master Tian. Compared to the lavish celebrations of ordinary families, this ritual seemed light and simple.

Now, all the contestants and tourists of the Luotian Grand Ceremony have gone down the mountain. The only "foreign guests" who can come to mourn and watch the ceremony for Taoist Master Tian are the company's employees and the Lu family. Naturally, several "elites" from the North China region of Nadutong will participate.

When Liu Ke arrived at the venue of the ritual, he couldn't help but feel the sadness and longing.

Not to mention Taoist Master Rongshan, who was crying so hard that he could hardly recover, the other Taoists from Longhu Mountain were also crying with tears streaming down their faces.

It is not difficult to see that Mr. Tian is truly a highly respected and virtuous person.

Zhang Chulan, the well-connected 'Bilian Zhenren' and the 'former Heavenly Master' successor who has one foot in the gate of Mount Longhu, also had an unpleasant look on his face.

After all, no one would be happy when a centenarian who cared for and took care of you was killed.

……

The ritual was finally held the next morning. After paying his respects to Mr. Tian, ​​Liu Ke went to the main hall.

When he arrived at the door of the main hall, his breathing became faster.

Boom boom boom!

As Liu Ke reached out and knocked gently on the wooden door, after a while, he heard the voice of the old Taoist priest coming from inside.

"Please come in."

After taking a deep breath, Liu Ke pushed open the door of the Taoist temple and walked in.

The main hall of the Tianshi Mansion is also known as the Sanqing Hall. As soon as Liu Kegang entered, he saw statues of the Three Pure Ones and the Four Emperors enshrined in the hall, as well as altars and sacred banners lined up in front.
