my causal simulator

Chapter 224 Real Cause and Effect - The Jialing River Incident
I booked a flight ticket for noon on my phone, and just as I was packing up, a message came on my phone.

"Dear Mr. Lin, I found this number through your assistant, and I am taking the liberty to send you this text message. I am Zhou Kongming, the current head of Maoshan. I saw the incident in your warehouse in Rongcheng on the Internet. It seems that there is a Taoist master I don’t know if you know someone who is robbing you in your warehouse, and I want to make an appointment with you. I’m so presumptuous, please make amends.”

This tone is already extremely humble.

Lin Shuhang had learned some things about Taoist masters from Cheng Maozhi. Even the so-called Erlangshan who had "got into the eyes of money", it was impossible for him to put on such a low profile when facing Li Jianyun. Because these Taoist masters are either really arrogant in their hearts, or they understand the truth that the cheaper you are, the less valuable it is. It is simply impossible for them to be so humble to a so-called rich person.

And as the head of Maoshan, he was able to find this phone number, and even used several presumptuous words in a row. Frankly speaking, the other party has obviously concluded that Lin Shuhang is the master of the tribulation. This humility is not just pretending. , but from the bottom of my heart.

However, the other party was also really afraid, afraid that Lin Shuhang, a master of Taoism, would be dissatisfied with this kind of presumptuous interruption, so he deliberately didn't point it out, and even pretended not to know the details, which was equivalent to telling the master: If you always don't want to see, Then we absolutely dare not disturb you, assuming that you have nothing to do with this matter.

The humble attitude and respectful tone are much better than Lin Shuhang's imagination of a group of "haven't seen the world" and "aloof" bull noses.

Lin Shuhang smiled, and replied with a message: "Okay, I'm in Chang'an for the past two days. If you have something to do, go there to make an appointment. I may be free tomorrow, and I just want to see you too."

It is true that Lin Shuhang had already planned to meet the Taoist expert in reality.

These Daoist people obviously know more about the recovery of spiritual energy than I do. After all, I know it's 'too late'. By the way, I can also learn about the current situation of Daoism.

If it really comes to the point where it is necessary to compete with the Cambrians, it is basically useless to rely on state machinery. Whether it is the current missiles or even nuclear weapons, it may not be able to kill even the strongest of the Earth Immortal level. After all, the Earth Immortal can hide in In zero dimension, and if it comes to the monkey's Golden Wonderland, Lin Shuhang suspects that even nuclear bombs may not be able to hurt it.

The big head must be counting on the great powers of the immortals in Lingweili, but in reality, the recovery of monsters and the little ones can only rely on Taoists and immortal practitioners.

What's more, the influence of Taoism in the country is not weak now. The Taoist Association still has a considerable say in the Ministry of Culture of the country, and there are many special conveniences. Contact the people in the Taoism in advance to unite the front, or at least fight first. A good relationship foundation, whether it is for fighting against the Cambrians in the future, or for the convenience of one's own practice, is obviously imperative.

Zhou Kong obviously didn't know Lin Shuhang's true thoughts.

They arrived in Chengdu yesterday afternoon. It was not troublesome to find Lin Shuhang's phone number. The owner of the Juyuan Warehouse had a close relationship with him. The entire warehouse over there was a former cemetery. He had asked for Lin Shuhang's phone number because the warehouse was frequently haunted. He, Zhou Kongming, took over Maoshan himself. Since then, the owner of Juyuan Warehouse has become a loyal fan of Zhou Kongming. He even wanted to worship Maoshan at one time, because he was a daughter and was evaluated by Zhou Kongming as unclean. just give up.

For Zhou Kongming's request, the boss of Juyuan Warehouse naturally did not refuse, and got a phone call on the same day.

The difficulty lies in how to open the mouth, how to word it, and what attitude to use...

Zhou Kongming discussed with Li Chungang and others all night, and the latter insisted on using neither humble nor overbearing attitude. After all, he is used to being a Taoist leader in modern society. Although he knew that this expert was far superior to them, he should have After all, the attitude still can't let go.

But what Zhou Kongming meant was to be humble. It seems that such an expert who has already passed the catastrophe can be said to be a realistic version of jumping out of the country, not in the five elements, and still following the Taoist style of modern society. It is better not to provoke at all. You have to follow the ancestral system and use the humble attitude you should have when dealing with seniors.

The two argued for a whole day, and the final result was the string that Lin Shuhang saw on his phone...

After the news was sent out, Zhou Kongming and the others were always in a state of anxiety. They thought that if they were so humble, the other party would definitely let them go and take the airs of an expert, but they didn't expect that expert to reply the message very quickly, and agreed. Meet.

This made a few people very happy. Although the appointment in Chang'an, Rongcheng is a waste of time, but since it is to meet today's living Taoist gods, what is the waste of traveling?
Zhou Kongming quickly unified his opinions, and then replied to the text message. This time, he was not ambiguous, but said directly: "Thank you senior for your favor, let's go to noon tomorrow. If it is convenient for senior, then we will be in Wenchang Pavilion of Chenghuang Temple on West Street. If it is not convenient for senior , Feel free to leave an address, I will come and visit you soon.”

Lin Shuhang just went out and got on Didi, and saw the information, how can he have any places in Chang'an for people to visit?Replied to: Then let’s go to Chenghuang Temple, my time is not certain, tomorrow at noon or afternoon, I will notify you on my mobile phone.

"That's it!"

Seeing the reply to the text message, Zhou Kongming slapped his face, his face full of joy and joy.

As the head of Maoshan, he has been used to seeing strong winds and waves in his life, subduing demons and eliminating demons, and even going to the capital to face saints, but to be honest, he has never been as excited as he is today.

Not only Zhou Kongming, but also Li Chungang, Zhang Chunyang and others all had flushed faces.

For them, this expert in Rongcheng is not only powerful, but also represents a legend, a pursuit, and the possibility of a great era of spiritual recovery in Taoism!
It's all about itself.

"Book a ticket, now..."

ding ding ding...

Zhou Kongming's cell phone rang suddenly. In his excitement, he didn't want to answer it at first, but he glanced at the caller ID, frowned, and finally picked it up again.

"what's up?"

"Old Zhou! Watch the news! No, no, no, I'll forward it to you on WeChat. Check WeChat! Check WeChat! Hurry up!" There was an urgent voice on the other end of the phone.

"Who? What's the matter?" Zhang Chunyang leaned over beside him.

"That old bull-nosed person in Mount Qingcheng." Zhou Kongming replied, and at the same time clicked on WeChat with a suspicious expression on his face. On the message prompt displayed, Yu Konghai, the head of Qingcheng, was suddenly ranked first.

"Old Yu, I've never seen him in such a hurry..."

Several people around looked over curiously, and Zhou Kongming clicked on the message. The title of the forwarded message alone was enough to catch the attention of several Taoist masters.

'The spread of rabies in GY City has caused panic among the citizens, and the Municipal Health Bureau has set up a research team, which is suspected to have special transmission'

Rabies?
Everyone was stunned.

"Look first." Zhang Chunyang reminded.

Zhou Kongming clicked on the link and browsed the content of the news.

The general idea is that about three days ago, a few cases of rabies appeared in GY City. At the beginning, no one paid attention to it, but in just one or two days, a large area of ​​people began to be infected. Now the number of confirmed cases has reached 500 Many people, and growing at an exponential rate.Moreover, the fatality rate is extremely high, the attack speed is extremely fast, and the incubation period is extremely short. The general public should take precautions. If they see a suspected infected person on the street, they must immediately call the police for help while protecting their own safety.

Several Taoist masters looked at each other, and their faces became serious.

Rabies?Although this thing is also contagious, to be honest, the transmission route is small, and it is impossible to cause large-scale infection due to individual cases.

Ordinary people may feel incomprehensible when they see such news, but several masters of Taoism have experienced it...

"In [-], Rongcheng..."

"Zombie!" Zhou Kongming said decisively, before waiting for the others to react, he had already called Yu Konghai.

"Hey, Lao Yu, what's the situation over there?"

"Have you read the news?"

"Well, where are you? Is it what we think it is?"

"Hey, what do you think? I have just arrived in Guangyuan, and I have checked a few so-called infected people. The teeth marks on the neck are very clear, and there is also corpse poison on the body. It is a zombie!"

"how is the situation?"

"Too bad, the government has isolated all the victims, so the victim's dictation has not yet appeared on the Internet, but with the development of the Internet, it is estimated that it will not be able to hide it for a long time, and the source of the corpse has not been found yet, but according to the victims Most of the victims were attacked on the banks of the Jialing River, and the zombies who attacked them were soaked, as if they came out of the river..."

"Zombies in the river?"

"Hey, whoever was the sinker?" The other end of the phone jokingly said, "I came here in a hurry, and I didn't bring any magic exorcist, besides, our Qingcheng Mountain people are not good at this, aren't they?" ? The talisman I drew temporarily can only suppress the corpse poison temporarily, and the sedatives and morphine in the hospital temporarily stabilized the victim's condition, but it won't last for two days, so I'm thinking of you! Well, you guys from Maoshan are the most familiar, it would be even better if those from Longhushan are here too."

Qingcheng Mountain can also be regarded as a holy land of Taoism, but Qingcheng Taoists pay attention to self-cultivation, strengthening the foundation and cultivating talents. Although they also accept some religious activities, compared with Maoshan and Longhushan, Taoists in Qingcheng Mountain are more concerned about the business of exorcising demons and subduing demons. Really not professional.

"It just happens to be there." Zhou Kongming has been subduing demons all his life. Although he also makes money from it, his original intention of subduing demons has never been lost.

Taoist priests, the soul of Chinese religion, the so-called seclusion in prosperous times, saving the world in troubled times, he is no longer hiding in seclusion now, in order to make money, under the influence of the great era, he has long lost his original intention, but the word "saving the world" That is something that must be guarded no matter what, otherwise it is worthy of claiming to be the heir of Taoism?
He didn't have such a casual attitude towards this matter as Yu Konghai. Hearing that more than 500 people had been bitten, his heart was heavy: "Please send me the address, and we will go there right away."

"Okay! Look at the location on WeChat!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Kongming felt a little heavy, but he saw that Li Chungang and Zhang Chunyang were all talking loudly.

Zhou Kongming was stunned for a moment, and then he slapped his forehead: "That's right, an appointment with a master!"

"I saw you promised so readily, I thought you forgot." Li Chungang said with a smile.

Zhou Kongming was also a little dumbfounded: "Isn't this urgent..."

"Should we divide the troops into two groups?" Zhang Chunyang asked tentatively.

"That's right, who will go to Guangyuan to save people, and who will go to see an expert?" Li Chungang said with a smile: "It is my Taoist duty to help the world and save people. If we don’t have the opportunity, how about the rest of us who go to see the expert? In my opinion, it’s better to advance and retreat together.”

"That's right!" Zhou Kongming nodded and said, "Besides, in the text message just now, the elder from Rongcheng is not the kind of person who is unreasonable or arrogant. If we explain the reason, the elder will not be punished because we break the appointment." Strange, and this Guangyuan zombie incident, more than 500 victims have been confirmed in just two or three days. This has been counted and announced. This number far exceeds the hairy corpse incident in Rongcheng in [-] , Unknown scale, unknown level, even if we wait in the past, I am afraid that we may not be able to handle it, maybe there is still a place to ask for help, let me tell you the truth in advance, maybe the expert will give a helping hand, I don’t know.”

"That's right!" Li Chungang made a clapboard: "Then you can send a message to the expert... No, no, make a phone call? Explain the situation. As for the decision made by the expert, that is the expert's business. We will wait. At least you can have a clear conscience."

…………

After getting off the plane, Cheng Maozhi was already waiting in the pick-up hall, seeing Lin Shuhang waving repeatedly.

Lin Shuhang had already read the text message sent by Zhou Kongming. It is said that he made a phone call before sending the text message. But at that time, Lin Shuhang had already boarded the plane and his phone was turned off, so he sent the text message instead.

Zombies appeared along the Jialing River in Guangyuan?This matter made Lin Shuhang take care of it.

...isn't it?

Frankly speaking, if these two words were separated, Lin Shuhang might not care too much about Jialing River and Zombie, but if they are connected together, it is quite special.

When he was in the Three Kingdoms scene, he and Zhuge Liang chased all the way from Xiangyang to Jialing, and finally intercepted Gong Chong's ship transporting the demon corpse at Jialing port.

Those were hundreds of demon corpses refined by Gong Chong. According to Lin Shuhang's intention at the time, he wanted He Zudao to burn these demon corpses collectively. I was also afraid that the zombies would be activated due to the burning, so after consulting the relevant Taoists, I tied all the boxes with big stones, transported them all to the center of the Jialing River, and sank into the river.

And now it's 2000 years later, the batch of zombies that appeared in Guangyuan, wouldn't it be the same batch that was sunk in the first place?
Cause and effect, cause and effect in ancient times, and result in modern times, this is the first time Lin Shuhang encountered a causal reaction that directly affected the order of modern society in reality.

After getting into Cheng Maozhi's car, he heard Cheng Maozhi chattering excitedly beside him, but he turned on his cell phone and sent Zhou Kongming a text message: "Got it, if you can't solve it within a day or two, give me a message and I'll find time to fix it." Go and help."
