Under One Person, Above Ten Thousand People

The unknown land of Xiling was also destroyed, and the flames of Daoguang shot up into the sky and lasted for a long time.

All the secret manuals that Xiling had collected from various places and stored in Zhishou Temple were also looted.

From then on, there was no more Xiling Temple and Zhishou Temple in the unknown land in the world.

outside world.

Under one person.

There is no university in the south.

For some reason, in recent days, Nanbukai University seems much more lively at night than during the day.

Moreover, most of the people who come here to play or sightsee are from outside the school.

On the shore of Rou Lake, Lu Linglong rushed forward twice but each time she ran into an invisible energy shield. After being bounced back, she muttered and punched and kicked at the empty space.

But there is still no effect.

"Grandpa, what the hell is this thing? How come you can't see it or touch it, but once you enter it you'll be bounced back.

Is it to prevent others from jumping into the lake and committing suicide?"

Lu Linglong was helpless against this mysterious power and could only complain silently.

On the shore, the old Taoist priest and Lu Jin stood side by side, looking into the depths of Rou Lake at the same time.

However, no matter how the two tried to explore, the power of perception was ultimately unable to enter.

Hearing the great-granddaughter's complaints with a lot of resentment, Lu Jin laughed and said:

"Linglong, stop grumbling and getting angry here. Grandfather is willing to bet that this must be the work of that bastard Chu Tianyou.

So, let alone your great grandfather, even the shameless old man, the old Taoist priest, can’t get in, right, old Taoist priest?”

After saying that, Lu Jin looked at the old Taoist priest with white hair next to him and asked with a smile.

Now, whenever Lu Jin thinks of the fact that the old Taoist priest was defeated by a woman in green, he feels happy and his smile can last the whole day.

The old Taoist priest glanced at the complacent Lu Jin and said bluntly, "This thing is indeed too strange. You can't see or touch it, but you can't enter it."

"Is Chu Tianyou so bored that he put something like this in the lake of his own school?"

Lu Linglong said speechlessly.

"Xiao Linglong, why don't you ask him this question in person, and cultivate your relationship with him at the same time, and trick that boy into marrying into our Lu family. Then, Grandfather will tell your father to pass the position of the next head of the Lu family to you, how do you think?"

"Grandpa!"

Chapter 246 [Lu Jin prepares to draw lightning to strike Longhu Mountain]

Lu Linglong finally discovered the logical truth of the matter. As long as she stayed with her great grandfather, he would tirelessly instill in her the same idea a hundred times:

Chu Tianyou is very outstanding. If there is any possibility, I can find a way to marry him or let him marry into the Lu family.

She had said it so many times that her ears were almost callused. The name Chu Tianyou and his figure seemed to be gradually engraved in her mind.

Meow!

Lu Linglong left in anger, deciding to leave this shameless and disrespectful old man. She didn't want to hear him mention Chu Tianyou left and right anymore, which annoyed her to death.

Seeing his great-granddaughter stomping away angrily, Grandpa Lu Jin was not angry at all but burst into laughter.

His purpose has been achieved.

Now all that’s missing is an opportunity for everything to come to fruition.

"Old Lu, do you really want to accept Chu Tianyou as your Lu family's disciple? It is true that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so why do you have to be obsessed with the rise and fall of the world?"

The old Taoist priest looked at the surface of Rou Lake, felt the cool breeze blowing from the lake, and thought seriously about this invisible strange energy, and asked jokingly.

Lu Jin glanced at the old man who was known as the best in the martial arts world and said indifferently:

“Longhu Mountain has a thousand-year heritage, a profound foundation and strong strength. It also has the so-called cheating martial arts inheritance by young people like Tianshi Du. Naturally, we are not worried that future generations will let Longhu Mountain’s reputation decline.

But the situation in our Lu family is quite different. Starting from my generation, although there are many descendants, there are almost no ones with outstanding talents. We are already in an embarrassing state of lack of successors.

You, old master, naturally don't understand the meaning of all this I'm doing, so don't just talk without any pain in your back."

Seeing him say this, no matter when in history, as long as it concerns the rise and fall, survival or destruction of a family, most of them are very troublesome matters, big or small, and you don’t know the hardship if you are not in the position.

If not Yue Buqun himself, who could truly understand the extreme oppression he felt at having to bear the rise and fall of his sect?

Therefore, the old Taoist priest did not say anything more about Lu Jin's series of actions.

Old Master Lu Jin reached out and touched the invisible energy of the formation in the void, and said:

"What do you think of the Eight Wonders, old master?"

The old Taoist priest glanced at this old man who possessed the Tongtian Talisman, one of the Eight Wonders, but was not afraid of trouble, rolled his eyes and said:

"Although the Eight Wonders are very powerful, they are far from being invincible. For example, even if you have mastered the Tongtian Talisman, it would be as easy for me to deal with you as it was when we were kids. Just one slap will do the trick."

"Damn it! Old Heavenly Master, you don't curse people or expose their shortcomings. You've been asking for divination for two days. You know that's not what I meant when I asked you about the Eight Wonders."

Old man Lu Jin's face darkened when his weakness was exposed. If he really couldn't beat this old guy, he would probably have slapped him on the spot.

The old Taoist priest returned the favor with a smug smile, and finally said in a relaxed tone, "Same here, you always expose my shortcomings, don't you?

As for the Eight Great Skills, in fact, these people in the extraordinary circle don’t really want to obtain this secret book.

What they really want at all costs is actually the secret of the birth of the Eight Great Techniques."

Lu Jin nodded, broke off a reed by the Rou Lake, held it in his hand, and said:

"A few days ago, my troublesome granddaughter suddenly asked me a question. If the Eight Wonders are so powerful, why did those people hide from me back then? Old Heavenly Master, can you tell me why?"

The two walked side by side, circling around the Rou Lake of Nankai University. The old Taoist priest was silent for a moment and then said:

“Firstly, you and I both know very well that although the Eight Wonders are powerful, they are far from being strong enough to make one invincible and crush all the skills of the major sects in the martial arts world.

The Eight Wonderful Skills reflect the suppression of similar-type skills. However, as for the Tang Sect's unique assassination skill "Dan Shi", which one of the Eight Wonderful Skills can be its opponent?

In fact, big sects don't necessarily have to have the Eight Great Skills. The fact that you, Old Lu, can take out the Tongtian Talisman at will actually has some meaning in this regard.

In fact, what those secluded old guys really care about is not the Eight Wonders themselves. What they care about is far more than the Eight Wonders, which is the secret of creating the Eight Wonders.

Secondly, the eight strange skills focus on "strangeness", not necessarily specializing in combat. For example, the Lu family's soul-clearing technique is not good at direct confrontation, and the soul-binding and general-dispatching technique does not necessarily bind souls of the type that fight in direct combat.

Ma Xianhong, the village chief of Biyou Village who was nearly slapped to death by Chu Tianyou a few days ago, is also very strong, but if he is required to make a magic weapon on the spot, it will definitely not be of any use.

The few magical instruments that are truly effective must be prepared long in advance.

Thirdly, no matter how powerful a technique is, it still depends on the person who is practicing it and his or her talent and qualifications.

The power displayed by a martial art is determined by the strength of the martial art itself and the strength of the user.

The power of the Eight Wonders does not mean that the user is strong, just like I can break your Tongtian Lu + Ni Sheng Triple with just an ordinary Taoist slap.

After all, the creators of the Eight Great Skills were too young back then, and their skills were insufficient. No matter how strong their skills were, they could not allow a featherweight to defeat a heavyweight, so they were chased by the entire martial arts world and fled everywhere.

Fourthly, the creation process of the Eight Wonders was a shortcut, which resulted in the creator's lack of understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of the method, making it difficult to maximize its power.

Regarding this point, Old Lu, you have also made a big mistake in cultivation. You have scattered the precious talismans like beans, which looks intimidating but is not the right method.

Copying answers means missing out on the process of enlightenment. Tongtian talisman is good, but because it is too easy to write, you, Lao Lu, may not have carefully studied the characteristics of different talismans, and as a result, you may not be able to use their wonderful effects.

As for the last point, two fists cannot beat four hands. The creators of the Eight Great Skills were ostensibly wanted because of the "Thirty-Six Thieves" incident, but after all, they have been wanted by the entire martial arts world and can be killed by anyone. They cannot fight against the entire alien world.

It’s just like no matter how powerful the underworld is, it can never fight against the government.

In fact, if those people back then were willing to join a powerful force or government, they might not have been unable to survive, just like Feng Tianyang joined the Wang family.

If Da'er Huaiyi had been willing to return to Longhu Mountain back then, would anyone have dared to do anything to him?

Hey, Lao Lu, where are you going so late at night? We just agreed to go to the cafeteria on the second floor of Nanbukai University to have a barbecue, and then go to the back mountain to see Broken Sword. You're not going?"

At the corner of the dark corner, Mr. Lu Jin walked away in the cold wind without looking back, leaving behind only a cold snort of dissatisfaction:

"Why are you eating barbecue and looking at a broken sword? I'd better go back and draw talismans. If ten or twenty talismans can't seal you, I don't believe that a thousand or ten thousand talismans can't deal with you.

Old Heavenly Master, Longhu Mountain should prepare for its third renovation!"

“Hahahaha… then you might as well learn fortune-telling!” After hearing this, the old Taoist priest was amused by Lu Jin’s childish side and made a suggestion.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jin suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at the old Taoist priest and laughed back, as if he had discovered a new world, then walked away happily, saying:

"Good suggestion. I will go to Wudang Mountain to learn from you. Old Heavenly Master, Longhu Mountain should prepare for the third renovation!"

On the bridgehead of Nanbukai University, only the old Taoist priest was left, disheveled in the wind.

Chapter 247 [Should, Probably]

Shortly after the old Taoist priest and Mr. Lu Jin left, two people slowly walked out from the shadows on the other side of the bridgehead of Nanbukai University.

The cold wind blowing gently from Rou Lake at night blew the second-hand smoke that Xu Si had just exhaled to Xu San, which made him frown slightly and choose to walk to the other side.

"You went to Yinshan overnight. Did you find anything valuable or suspicious?"

Xu San took off his glasses and wiped them carefully, then glanced at the old Taoist's leaving back and asked.

Xu Si, who already had a scruffy beard and had not shaved for a long time, took a deep breath of the frosted cigarette in his hand, then extinguished it and threw it casually into the bushes over there, then said:

“Nothing was found. Ever since Chu Tianyou designed a catastrophe for the alien world in Yinshan last time, almost no one goes there anymore.

There is just one thing that makes me feel very strange. According to my intelligence, Feng Shayan and Bao Bao from Tianxiahui, and Xia He, the Bone Scraper of Quanxing, have all been to Yinshan one after another.

And they stayed in the mountains for several days, and no one knew what they were going through or what happened.

That was the time when we couldn’t get in touch with the baby.”

"Is there really some problem in Yinshan that we don't know about?" Xu San put on his glasses that he had already wiped clean.

Xu Si shook his head and said, "Forget it. Let Chu Tianyou deal with this headache after he comes back. What we should worry about now is the upcoming Nanshan Gua and the unusual movements of the alien forces overseas."

Hearing this, Xu San paused for a moment and said, "One of the purposes of establishing the Dark Department is to guard against the invasion of foreign alien forces. Have you received any news recently?"

Xu Si sighed and said, "The Dark Department has just been established and is still very weak in terms of intelligence. We haven't found any unusual movements so far.

However, I have spent a lot of time and energy recently sorting out the overseas alien forces that have appeared so far."

"Oh? I didn't expect you to have the leisure time at this moment."

What you meant was, I thought you were doing some shady things all day long.

Xu Si rarely swore this time, but calmly sorted out his thoughts and said:

"The alien forces overseas are indeed formidable, and there has been unrest there. If we are not careful, the war could spread to our side.

The establishment of the dark department at this time is actually to prevent problems before they occur.

But I think the best decision made by the superiors this time was to let Chu Tianyou be the head of the dark department.

I tell you, if those overseas aliens want to join forces to attack like they did to the Old Summer Palace, Chu Tianyou, a patriotic madman, will definitely blow them into skewers and sell them overseas."

Hearing this, Xu San rarely agreed with the opinion of this social brother, nodded and said:

"Tell me about the information you have sorted out during this period. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Xu San took a piece of reed in his hand and tore off the leaves and skin bit by bit, saying:

“When Mount Longhu was holding the Luotian Grand Ceremony, two foreigners came to Mount Longhu, Isaac Taber and his apprentice.

Isaac's apprentice, Hong, appeared and used both wind and water magic to solve the problem of Gong Qing almost knocking over the teacup.

This one move is enough to show that they are definitely not cannon fodder that can be killed easily.

Moreover, the fact that he received such warm hospitality from the old Taoist priest was enough to explain the problem.

At that time, the old Taoist priest was still a little worried that they were here to cause trouble, but you and I both know that even if the top ten bosses and the other four forces came to Mount Longhu to cause trouble at the same time, the old Taoist priest might not ignore these people and would actually worry that Isaac would come to cause trouble.

This is enough to show that this foreign old man is at the same level as the old Taoist priest.

In addition to these two overseas aliens, I also searched for some files on Oriental aliens from many years ago in ancient books.

The dark sector also needs to be on guard against the appearance of these people at all times.

An incident occurred in the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley not long ago. I personally led a team to investigate it, and there were traces of overseas alien activities there.

Moreover, these people were carrying heavy weapons such as guns and ammunition.
