Chapter 112 112 Under the Secret Teaching
"Okay! I'll do it!" The man stared at the treasure money eagerly and greedily, and with difficulty he turned his attention to the statue on the side.
"Just one prayer? That's fine?" he asked.
"First, worship devoutly, and then there is a complicated process to go. I will tell you step by step." Zhang Rongfang said. "If it goes well, all the sacrifices will be done, and it will be afternoon."
"So it is." The man nodded in understanding.
He said that the money could not be so easy to make. It turns out that there is trouble waiting behind.
Thinking of this, he felt a lot more at ease.
tidying up his old clothes, the man walked one meter in front of the statue and knelt down.
Then hand in hand, embrace yin and embrace yang. Bend over, kowtow.
Poof.
A knock.
Poof.
Two knocks.
Poof.
Three knocks!
puff.
In an instant, a little light flashed by. The golden bead flew out from the hand of the idol and sank into the man's forehead.
That shimmering light seemed to be something metallic, extremely fast, like a bullet.
Not even Zhang Rongfang could react.
Only saw a thin trace flashing by.
He was startled and took a step back.
'what! ? ’
In surprise, he looked at the man.
"How is it?? Are you alright?"
The man knelt on the spot, motionless, as if stunned.
There was a tiny blood spot on his eyebrows just passed by the shimmering light.
The blood spot is too small, comparable to the tip of a needle, and most people can't see it without looking closely.
"It's okay" The man suddenly came back to his senses and stood up slowly.
It was just that his body was trembling, and sweat was slowly dripping from his forehead, the side of his cheeks, and everywhere.
"You promised me the money." He turned his head with difficulty and looked at Zhang Rongfang.
"Sure! Don't worry!" Zhang Rongfang couldn't help but stagnate when he saw the other's face.
He involuntarily took a step back, daring not to get too close.
The man at this time looked as if everything was normal.
But his face, neck, hands, scalp. As long as there is skin exposed, there are clear linear bulges.
It was like a lot of tiny nematodes, constantly swimming under his skin.
Sometimes bulge, sometimes normal.
‘What the hell! ? ' Zhang Rongfang mentioned the highest with vigilance in his heart. The hand involuntarily held the wish wheel behind him.
"Where's the money?? What about the money you promised me???" The man stepped forward.
"My wish. Money. Money money money money money!!"
The sanity in his eyes was fading, replaced by sluggishness.
The body movements are completely opposite, more relaxed and flexible than before.
He kept approaching Zhang Rongfang.
took a step forward suddenly.
Poof!
There was an extra dirt pit on the ground, and the man was like a beast, rushing towards Zhang Rongfang.
when!
As the two collided, there was a sound of gold and iron clashing.
The huge force even Zhang Rongfang couldn't help but take a few steps back. The wish wheel in his hand couldn't stop shaking. It was obvious that he was attacked just now, and he responded in a hurry, and he used too much force.
The gambler man on the opposite side was withdrawing his hand at this time, and a clear cut on the edge of the palm revealed scarlet flesh and silver metal filaments that were swimming.
"Money, money, money, money!" The gambler man frantically rushed towards Zhang Rongfang again.
He used all fours, completely wielding his body as a weapon.
The weird thing is that his hands and feet kept colliding with the wish wheel, but he didn't mean to be sawed off at all.
"God has fulfilled my wish! I want money! Money! Money!"
!
He had no skills at all, was hit by Zhang Rongfang with a blow from the wish wheel, and fell to the ground.
But it was useless, he immediately got up again and rushed towards Zhang Rongfang frantically.
Time and time again, the man seemed to lose his mind completely in the end. I only know that I get up again and again and pounce towards my opponent.
Zhang Rongfang was shocked.
The speed and strength of this man at this time are no less than that of a sixth-grade master, and he is still improving.
The point is, this person is an ordinary person at the beginning. Still a weak gambler.
At this time, he has suddenly become a master who is comparable to the sixth-rank breaking limit? ?
Even if he doesn't know martial arts, his speed and power can crush rank four.
This statue. Simply.
when.
Zhang Rongfang suddenly retreated, and the wish wheel in his hands trembled violently. He was punched in the side by the man, and he almost let go.
The opponent’s speed and strength have grown again! ? ?
was just a sixth rank, and now there is at least a seventh rank! And it's still improving!
Zhang Rongfang was shocked and angry.
Wish Wheel quickly blocked in front of him. He can only block.
Although the man's moves are extremely poor, he just swings randomly, but he is not afraid of cutting at all.
If the wheel hits him, it will only scatter sparks and break the skin. The rest are useless.
Suddenly there was another muffled sound.
!
Zhang Rongfang took two steps back, his face even more shocked.
Eighth grade!
This man actually.
Before he could return to his senses, the man roared again and waved at him.
This palm is actually one step faster than the previous one.
Zhang Rongfang didn't dare to neglect immediately, raised his right leg, and used the limit-breaking technique to step back.
One palm and one leg clashed instantly.
! !
Zhang Rongfang took a few steps back, his face flushed red, and his right leg felt a little pain.
He was actually injured! ?
at this time.
Click.
The man suddenly maintained a gesture of raising his hand and stood still.
A trace of blood flowed from his eyes, ears and nostrils.
Puff.
The man fell to the ground and was silent.
In a slight sizzling sound, it seemed that the dry soil was suddenly nourished by water.
The gambler man's body slowly shriveled, as if he had lost his supporting skin.
Zhang Rongfang stood there, panting, feeling a rust smell in his throat.
He wiped the lower end of his nostrils and took a look.
is blood.
He was beaten so hard that he was bleeding from internal injuries!
glanced at the attribute bar, and the life attribute temporarily dropped by three points.
‘That thing, what is it? ? ! ’
He picked up a thick wooden stick and probed the gambler man.
The other party was completely motionless, and the flesh was like mud, poking a pit.
Zhang Rongfang went to see the statue again.
The stick is lightly touched.
Crash.
The statue completely collapsed, shattering into a large amount of sand.
"No??" Zhang Rong was stunned.
Standing on the spot, he tested the man several times again, and determined that the other party was completely silent.
This is the way to go to check.
The man's corpse was like a human-shaped skin sac, and the bones, flesh and blood inside were all dissolved into mucus and mud.
Zhang Rongfang grabbed each other's hair with one hand, just like grabbing a human-shaped balloon filled with water.
'Is this the reason why Lingting has been strangling secret cults? ’
Such a powerful lethality, just an ordinary person can get the speed and power that will hurt him.
Without the coordination of moves, random fighting can hurt him.
The man estimated that the level of improvement has reached the ninth grade.
A mere **** statue can actually lift an ordinary person to the ninth rank in an instant
No wonder Lingting is so vigilant.
If it is replaced by a warrior with a stronger physique to worship, then the power
Zhang Rongfang didn't dare to think about it at all.
He carefully collected the fine sand broken by the statue and packed it in a bag.
Then dig a pit and bury the body before leaving the place quickly.
Shortly after he left the woodland.
A tall figure with his whole body wrapped in a gray cloak slowly appeared at the position where the statue collapsed.
He squatted down, and his hands touched a little bit of invisible sand and ash scattered on the ground.
"Not the people of the court. The idols were used up. But what about people??"
Another grey-robed man dressed like him walked out of the forest.
"If you can't find it, forget it. It looks like it didn't work, let's go."
"Um."
The two stopped looking at each other, got up and left quickly.

Pingya Temple.
Stacks of intelligence documents kept dropping from Zhang Rongfang's hands.
He was quickly searching for a lot of information about idols, spiritual courts, and esoteric religion.
Since direct information cannot be found, what about indirect information?
The situation of the idol, let him understand.
Esotericism, Ling Ting, these are probably things hidden in the depths of this world.
The esoteric religion has such troublesome things as **** statues.
Then there must be something equally antagonistic to Lingting.
is reminiscent of the broken pieces of idols.
Zhang Rongfang seemed to have some guesses in his heart.
‘Since the statue is broken and reassembled, it can still have such a strong effect, then, if it is complete, will the effect be stronger? Or, would it not have such serious side effects? ’
At this moment, outside the main hall, a figure quickly entered the door and quickly knelt down on one knee towards Zhang Rongfang.
The figure wears the same black mask, but there are no white marks similar to three eyes between the eyebrows.
"Master Bai Ying, urgent news from Fucheng!"
"Bring it up." Zhang Rongfang put down the text and turned around.
A special bamboo pipe was offered by the person who came.
Cut open the sealing wax and remove the stopper. Zhang Rongfang quickly poured out a small paper roll from the bamboo tube.
Unroll the paper roll.
‘The esoteric scriptures appeared near Tanyang City, find it, or find the person who obtained it. - Red Spirit. ’
The general person in charge of fucheng is Hongling.
Zhang Rongfang has seen the overall structure of the Golden Wings Building and knows the identity of this red spirit.
is just esoteric scriptures
Could it be the piece of yellow cloth?
"Go down." He waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to go down.
"Yes."
watched his subordinates go out.
Zhang Rongfang recalled the strange situation that happened before.
Combined with the command quest from Fucheng, this quest has a mandatory mark, which means that it is a fixed quest that he needs to complete this year.
‘It seems that this matter is bigger than I thought. Many people know about my collection of idol parts.
But I got the yellow cloth, no one knows. It must be kept strictly confidential. ’
put down the Fucheng order, and he continued to read the information.
Until he finds out what the esoteric scriptures are, he must keep them secret, so that no one can know the yellow cloth he got.
"Have it!"
Suddenly Zhang Rongfang shook his hand, and the piece of information he had just received almost made him fall from his palm.
In this information, it is mentioned that in ancient books, there are recorded cases of bowing to esoteric idols.
‘. Those who worship, often fall into insanity, which the sect calls baptism.
If you can pass baptism, you will become a spiritual network for life, a servant of God.
If it cannot pass, the potential of the whole body will be stimulated and exhausted. After dozens of breaths of madness, the flesh will fester and die.
In the autumn of 1124, Lingting announced the establishment of Jixian Academy, publicly identified Mingjiao, and abolished esoteric baptism.
In the spring of 1125, the big and small esoteric sects collapsed, and the remnants were wiped out on a large scale in various places.
In 1126, Jixian Academy was upgraded and set to govern all matters of Taoism in the world. And supervise all esoteric affairs, so far, there is no trace of esoteric remnants.
In the autumn of the same year, Jixian Yuan issued a decree that no one should investigate matters involving esoteric religion. ’
Although this information is not very detailed, the content probably allows Zhang Rongfang to understand the relevant records.
At the bottom of , there is a line of explanation.
is the source of that esoteric text. The script on the esoteric cloth is an ancient script called lock script.
There are not many people who understand this kind of writing in Tan Yang.
Three names are listed on the intelligence, all of them are people who understand lock text.
Remembering the name in his heart, Zhang Rongfang looked again, the provider of this information - Xiong Wuye.
Then he threw it into the burning brazier.
The task of the Golden Winged Tower, the attention of the Ling Ting, the strangeness of the statue, and the many signs made him understand that this matter is over for the time being.
You can no longer investigate openly, you must slowly and secretly understand.
‘It just so happens that my life attributes are still accumulating, and I will see when I can break the limit and reach the ninth grade.
In addition, you can also try to find someone to learn about this kind of locked text. This Xiong Wuye can transfer him over and ask carefully. ’
As for the official side, after he applied for the second time, he was able to transfer back to the Palace of Mirrors, so there is no need to worry about his appointment.
Just find a transition at random.
The key now is that it is still not known that he is secretly investigating secret sect-related matters.
The traces before should also be cleaned up one by one.
