Gu Cheng followed the Mengshan Daoist to chat about some things in the chaotic army, and the Ming people didn't say secret words, although the things that the two of them said were a bit taboo, but in fact, half of the Eight King Kongs had different thoughts.By the way, now with Gu Cheng's ascension, it has become more than half.No wonder Qiu Erniang said that Fang Zhenhai wouldn't be able to jump for long, just look at the people under his command and know that this is definitely not the normal development direction of a long-term force."
By the way, Brother Gu, why are you looking for me today?"
Gu Cheng said: "I want to ask the Dao Master some questions, the Dao Master knows a lot about the martial arts and the cultivation world in the Southern Nine Counties?"
”Mengshan Daoist said a little proudly: "Although I can't say that I know very well, at least I basically know the things of common sense."
There are not many people in my lineage, small families and small households, more than eight or nine people per generation, and as few as three or four, but they are all rooted in the land of the southern nine counties, and a few will go to the Central Plains, and the inheritance has been passed down for hundreds of years. ”Gu Cheng asked, "Have you ever heard of the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra?"
”Mengshan Daoren: "Of course I've heard of it, this set of sword skills has a lot of reputation in Nanjiu County, and even in the entire rivers and lakes, Brother Gu, the sword skills you performed before are very familiar to me when I look at them, it should be one of the Sword Sutras of Mountains and Seas, right?"
”"This set of sword skills is so famous and powerful?"
Mengshan Daoren's face was a little strange and said: "How can you say that it is good, it is okay to say that it is strong, and it is okay to say that it is not strong, because the person who created this set of sword skills in the first place is simply a madman, and there are very few people who can cultivate this set of sword skills to the peak." ”"Why?"
Mengshan Daoren: "The original creator of this Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra was a sword powerhouse five hundred years ago, but everyone forgot what his name was, and more people called him a sword maniac.He claimed to have seen the legendary ancient beasts, and in the name of each strange beast, he created this mountain and sea sword scripture, each sword technique has its own characteristics, very rare, the entire set of mountain and sea sword scripture even has hundreds of sword skills, all of which are on the rivers and lakes.But some of the strange beasts he saw didn't know how many years had been extinct, and some of them were even legendary.For example, everyone has heard of such a thing as dragon and phoenix Xuanwu, but who has seen it with their own eyes?
The most important issue is that the essence of the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra Sword Intent must be seen in order to exert its supreme power.Therefore, this set of sword skills seems to be a bit chicken, and it can be cultivated, but it will never be cultivated to the extreme.The reason why everyone thinks he is a madman is also because they think that he is simply exaggerating, this Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra is not cultivated to the extreme at all, he is a person from five hundred years ago, and where did he see these legendary ancient beasts?
Therefore, five hundred years ago, when this mountain and sea sword scripture fell to the rivers and lakes, it was not taken seriously, and it could only be regarded as a second-rate sword skill with good power.But later, some people didn't think so. ”Gu Cheng asked, "Why?"
”"Because someone has really cultivated the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra to the peak."
Mengshan Dao said: "Although some of the strange beasts in this Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra have been completely lost, but the 100,000 mountains in the Southern Barbarians, the deep mountains and old forests in Liaodong, the 10,000-mile desert in the western Xinjiang, and the boundless Beihai Sea, there may be some unknown and powerful existence in these places."
For example, the legendary nine-tailed heavenly fox, although now the fox demon is only the most famous of the five immortals in Liaodong, but someone really saw the nine-tailed heavenly fox of the Qingqiu line in the 100,000 mountains of Nanban, and the mountain and sea sword scripture he got was the heavenly fox confusing the world.This person has cultivated the Heavenly Fox Confusion World to the real peak, which can be called a sword, stunning the world, and finally verified the true power of the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra, and this person is the founding ancestor of the Qingfeng Washing Sword Pavilion among the four major sword sects.Since then, everyone has known that it is not that the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra is weak, but that they have not found a true cultivation method.So since then, the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra has become a real top sword skill, but because there are hundreds of Mountain and Sea Sword Sutras, the power of them is also different, for example, the sword skills involving the famous ancient divine beast types such as dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns are basically top-notch, of course, it is basically impossible for you to cultivate them to the peak.Not to mention dragons and phoenixes, if you want to find a dragon to come out now, you need to run to the depths of the North Sea or the bottom of the big rivers and lakes. ”Gu Cheng nodded clearly, if it is calculated in this way, the Nine Phoenixes Returning to the Nest should also be regarded as the kind of mid-stream in the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra.And the candle dragon is a powerful beast in ancient legends, with a human head and a dragon body, opening its eyes for the sun and closing its eyes for the night, it should also be a powerful existence second only to the dragon and phoenix, so his candle dragon should belong to the top or sub-top in the mountain and sea sword scripture.Gu Cheng said: "But even if you know the true cultivation method of the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra, it is useless, except for the great opportunity, where to find these ancient beasts?"
”Mengshan Daoist spread his hands: "Look at your luck, or you can find something related to these strange beasts."
It is said that someone once found a drop of fire unicorn blood, based on it to visualize its artistic conception, and also cultivated into the Qilin Town Demon Sword in the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra, although it cannot reach the real peak, but it is also amazingly powerful. ”Gu Cheng suddenly asked, "By the way, Dao Chief, you just said the Four Great Sword Sects, why haven't I heard of the four major sword sects?"
”Mengshan Daoren said with a smile: "You are from the Jingye Division, I haven't heard of normal, the imperial court has a suppressive attitude towards the Jianghu sect, so naturally it will not give them any rankings, in fact, these are the rankings of the big forces listed by me and other reckless Jianghu people, and they will spread as they spread." ”Speaking, Mengshan Dao said: "In addition to the four major sword sects, there are others, their full names are the five great views of Taoism, the three holy lands of Buddhism have seven thousand-year-old families, and the five sects and demons have changed into divine swords for a hundred years, and there are thirty-two sects all over the world."
It means that there are five top Taoist temples in Taoism, and there are three holy places in Buddhism, and there are seven families that have been inherited for more than a thousand years.And the top existence of the sect that uses swords in the world happens to be distributed in the four places of the southeast, the northwest and the northwest, these thirty-two sects, the water is too large, and those with a little prestige can be listed on it, for example, the four pole sects are one of the thirty-two sects.In fact, there are some hidden forces that are also extremely strong, such as the ghost refining, corpse chasing, and witch Gu in Xiangxi Miaojiang, and their strength is not inferior to the thirty-two sects, and some can even compete with the Taoist Buddhist sect. ”Gu Cheng nodded knowingly, these things have not been exposed to in the Jingye Division, to be precise, the people in the Central Plains Jingye Division don't need to know these things, they just need to manage their own one-third of an acre, and most of the time on weekdays they are suppressing demons and other things.Only in a frontier place like Nanjiu County is the situation so complicated, not only to suppress demons, but also to deal with sect rebels and rebellious parties and cults.Gu Cheng chatted with Mengshan Daoren until midnight before leaving, and Gu Cheng also gained a lot.Mengshan Daoist has always been in the South Nine Counties, but he is also a cultivator with a serious inheritance, different from the people in the rivers and lakes who run around all day long for life, so his vision is much broader than those people, Gu Cheng chatted with him, but he gained a lot of secrets about the rivers and lakes.For the rest of the day, Gu Cheng was practicing, familiarizing himself with some of the Dao methods on his Xuanyin Spirit Flying Sutra and cultivating the newly obtained Candle Dragon Zhangmu.According to what Mengshan Dao said, although the Mountain and Sea Sword Sutra is strong, if you want to truly get the essence and cultivate to the peak, you don't rely on perseverance and talent, but luck.If you get a Sword Sutra of Mountains and Seas, and you happen to find something left by the ancient divine beasts related to it, the probability is not much higher than jumping off a cliff to get peerless martial arts.So even if Gu Cheng is cultivating now, whether he can push it to the peak in the future can only depend on luck.Similarly, Gu Cheng also sorted out his undercover plan, and becoming one of the Eight King Kongs was faster than he expected, but it was useless because he had no real military power and other rights.In fact, there are only four people under Fang Zhenhai who really have military power, Gao Jiande is one, Yunhai Zhenren is one, Huang Laojiao is one, and Na An Kanghu is also one.The rest of the people were all divided into battalions, about a dozen or so, but all of them were old men who followed Fang Zhenhai to fight the world.Although their strength was not as strong as Gu Cheng and the others, they could reassure Fang Zhenhai.Zhenhai is still very cautious about this kind of thing, things that are related to his own net worth and life, he will not easily hand them over to others, although Gu Cheng has won Fang Zhenhai's trust, but he has not been able to make him trust to this extent.More than ten days later, Fang Zhenhai's subordinates began to discuss again.At present, the rebellious army in Zhenhai has taken control of all the state capitals of Nanzhi County, and it has changed from attacking and occupying it to gradually digesting and moving towards stability, so it has changed from the previous three days and two ends to the current half a month, or everyone is called to discuss when there is something.However, this time, when discussing the matter, Gu Cheng found that Fang Zhenhai was frowning, as if there was something bad about it.With a wave of his hand, he signaled that Yunhai Real Man could start.Yunhai Zhenren smiled bitterly and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is only one thing in today's discussion, and that is that our chaotic army has no money now."
In another month, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to send out the money for my soldiers, so let's talk about any ideas you have, and it's best to get the money as soon as possible. ”The rebellious army under Fang Zhenhai's command could only be said to be a rebellious army cottage before, adding up to no more than 10,000 people, eating meat and drinking wine, and never worried about the problem of insufficient silver.And now when they occupy the entire Nanling County, there are tens of thousands of elite troops under their command alone, and there are more than 100,000 of the subordinates who have defected to them, how can so many people afford to raise them without some savings?
Moreover, Nanzhi County is located on the frontier, so it is not rich in itself, and the income from the looting of Nanzhi County is now about to be spent.
