Chapter 675: Taoist Temple



May 17, the tenth year of the Xuanli calendar, at the beginning of the Mao hour.

Fu Xiaoguan and his three companions left Jinling City and headed for Qingyun Mountain, six hundred miles away.

At the same time, six hundred miles away on Qingyun Mountain, the Taoist temple master Su Changsheng came to the Confucius Temple.

It's a mess here.

The hole was as dark as an abyss.

He stood at the entrance of the cave with his hands behind his back and looked for a while, but did not go down to see what was going on.

His figure unfolded again, leaving Jinling City and heading towards the Sword Forest.

It was on this day that the news that the abbot of the Taoist temple was the Grand Elder of the Moon Worshiping Sect's Cemen, and that Queen Shang was the Second Elder of the Cemen, spread from the martial arts world to the people.

This news came from the east. The people did not care about the fact that the abbot of the Taoist temple was the great elder of Cemen, but they were talking about the fact that Queen Shang was the second elder of Cemen.

Many famous people in the martial arts world got the martial arts letter. They didn't care about Queen Shang, but they were interested in the Taoist temple.

Since the Taoist temple's masters are all remnants of the Moon Worship Sect, the Taoist temple is naturally not clean.

Since the two martial arts masters of Daoshan and Jianlin have jointly issued a martial arts notice, they naturally have to destroy the Taoist temple!

Aren’t the disciples of their Taoist temple very arrogant?

Isn’t the Taoist temple known as the holy land of martial arts?

It's clearly a place where filth and dirt are hidden. Even though she's a whore, she still has to build a saintly archway for herself!

Naturally, the people in the martial arts world were not happy about this. With the instigation of the disciples from Daoshan and Jianlin, the call to attack the Taoist temple resounded throughout the martial arts world, as if it had set off a huge storm in the martial arts world!

These people in the martial arts world don’t know that Fu Xiaoguan is planning to catch them all in one fell swoop!

They were now rushing to Qingyun Mountain from all directions, but what was waiting for them was a full 40,000 black-armored cavalry of the Imperial Guards!

In the carriage.

Fu Xiaoguanzheng said slowly, "A few days ago, I discussed a question with Your Majesty. I believe that the greatest heroes should serve their country and their people. However, there is no discipline in the martial arts world, and many people violate the law by force.

Therefore, I suggested to His Majesty that a department be established to specifically control the people of the martial arts world, and that it be called the Six Gates."

Fu Xiaoguan looked up at his eldest senior brother and said with a smile, "I have recommended you to His Majesty as the first leader of the Six Gates. Senior brother, when we return to Qingyun Mountain, I will take you to meet His Majesty, okay?"

Su Jue was shocked. "Me? You said I should be the sect leader?"

Fu Xiaoguan nodded and said, "Besides you, I can't think of anyone else who is more suitable."

"Big Brother, I'm not cut out to be an official..."

Fu Xiaoguan waved his hand to stop Su Jue from speaking. "This position isn't difficult. It requires all martial artists to register and obtain badges before they can carry weapons around the world... It's about keeping them in check, to prevent them from causing any trouble."

"Big Brother is a Saint-level master, with a righteous character, and should be a role model for the martial arts community. Most of those martial artists are illiterate, so discipline cannot begin with education, but with the use of sticks.

If there are any disobedient martial artists, as an official, Big Brother can defeat them with his wooden sword. Also, I'm thinking that if the brothers in the Taoist temple are willing, they can join the Six Gates and lend a hand to Big Brother.

When Su Su heard this, her eyes lit up, "So I can do it too?"

Fu Xiaoguan smiled and said, "If you like, of course you can."

Su Jue straightened his hat and thought for a moment, it was naturally a good thing for the Taoist academy that his junior brother brought the Taoist disciples into the officialdom.

Now that we have flintlock rifles, martial arts have lost many of their uses compared to before.

If we can achieve something in the six sects, the Taoist temple will definitely leave an excellent reputation in the heart of the emperor. If His Majesty confers the Taoist temple as the state religion... this will be extremely beneficial to the expansion of the Taoist temple.

So he nodded without any pretense, "In that case, I'll give it a try. But why is it called Six Gates instead of One Gate?"

Fu Xiaoguan laughed and said, "I think it would be more accessible if there were more doors."

Su Jue was stunned, and suddenly understood - Junior Brother was telling us that we can't be stubborn in doing things, but must learn to adapt!

There are six doors. As for which door to go through, it depends on your own choice.

He looked at Fu Xiaoguan meaningfully. Junior brother is truly not an ordinary person!

They chatted all the way like this, and the carriage traveled for four days, arriving at Qingyun Mountain in the evening of May 21, the tenth year of the Xuanli calendar.

This is a continuous range of mountains.

The mountains are majestic and lush, and the glow of the setting sun shines on the mountains, as if giving this quiet forest a layer of holy glow.

Fu Xiaoguan and his party walked into the mountain path and headed towards the Taoist temple deep in Qingyun Mountain.

When the sun set and the sky was filled with stars and the moon, they came to a mountain gate.

There is a tall archway here with two big words written on it: Taoist Temple!

Fu Xiaoguan looked up at the two characters. They were simple, ancient, and full of imposing aura, as if they contained the spirit of a mighty sword.

"How many years has the Taoist temple been established?"

"Over eight hundred years!"

“Oh, it has a long history.”

Fu Xiaoguan was a little excited. After passing this archway, he was afraid that he would soon reach the Taoist temple.

Before leaving, he did not ask his eldest brother to release a crow to inform the abbot of the temple. He was worried that the abbot would avoid him if he knew he was coming.

I am about to meet the master of the temple. What kind of person will he be?

If I reveal his identity as a time traveler, will he kill me with his sword?

Fu Xiaoguan was a little nervous. He reached into his sleeve pocket, touched the gun, and felt a little more at ease.

He was wearing a cicada robe, and had his senior brothers Su Su, Xu Xinyan and three others by his side. As long as he didn't kill himself with one blow, he would have the opportunity to fire a shot.

One shot is enough.

Of course, it’s best if this kind of thing doesn’t happen. Wouldn’t it be wonderful for two time travelers to drink tea and chat together - talk about this world, talk about that world?

Thinking this, they continued to move forward, but were stopped at the gate of the Taoist temple.

"Who is coming?"

"Mr. Ding'an, Mr. Fu."

"Ah... Lord Ding'an, the light is too dim. Please forgive my blindness!"

A general knelt on one knee and bowed. He was Xue Pinggui, a cavalry captain under Huo Huaijin. He was ordered to lead 40,000 black-armored cavalrymen to wait here to kill those people from the martial arts world.

"Get up, we're not strangers... Is anyone attacking the academy?"

"Reporting to Ding Anbo, about twenty were killed two days ago."

"That's it?"

"According to spies, those Green Forest warriors are gathering outside the mountain. Among them are experts from the Sword Forest and Knife Mountain. I think they will be here soon."

"good!"

Fu Xiaoguan looked around the place carefully. He thought that a grand place like a Taoist temple should be built on the top of a mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland, but he didn't expect it to be in this valley.

Under the moonlight and starlight, a long low wall can be vaguely seen, and inside the low wall, there are faint shadows of tall towers and low pavilions.

This is the Taoist temple!

He is inside!
