American Celestial Master

Chapter 23, no way out
Everyone knows that among the harvest of this operation, the most valuable thing is this axe.However, in this matter, the person who contributed the most was undoubtedly Lin Qiusheng, and Lin Qiusheng was not only the one who contributed the most, but he was also undoubtedly the most powerful.Fidel felt that if Lin Qiusheng wanted to, he could kill them all by himself, and it didn't take much time.

Besides, considering the side effects of that thing, they can't use it at all-using this thing is actually no different from suicide to them.So everyone has no objection to handing over the ax to Lin Qiusheng.

"Except for this axe, the value of other things here is much lower." Lin Qiusheng continued, "But there are still some valuable things. For example..."

Lin Qiusheng pointed to the tree tumors that Zhang Feng had put into the bag: "These skeleton tree tumors themselves carry a strong ominous aura, if one is secretly buried near someone's house, their whole family will definitely be in bad luck Yes. Of course, I am not teaching you how to harm people - this thing is actually quite useful to you. Fidel, after this incident, what do you think are your weaknesses in battle?"

"I think our biggest weakness is that we have almost no resistance to spiritual attacks." Fidel replied immediately, obviously he had thought about this issue carefully.

"These skeleton tree tumors, at night, will produce obvious terrifying coercion. Although it is incomparable with the fear halo of nightmares, it can still bring quite obvious pressure to people. If placed in a certain way In the magic circle, the effect will be more obvious. By staying with these things at night and conducting anti-stress training for a period of time, your mental resistance will be significantly improved. Although it is used to fight against such things as nightmares Things like this may not be enough, but we don't encounter monsters like Nightmare every time."

"Thank you Lin, this is exactly what we needed," Fidel said.

"Considering that the value of this thing is still much lower than that of the axe, it would not be fair to distribute it if you only let you get this little harvest." Lin Qiusheng added, "But there is no Others are valuable and can be assigned to you. So, I have another suggestion, are you interested?"

In fact, Fidel is already very satisfied with the compensation Lin Qiusheng gave them.After all, in this matter, they also played the role of an excavator.But since Lin Qiusheng seemed willing to give them more things, of course he would not object.

"Tell me about your proposal," Fidel said.

"Fidel, just now you said that your greatest weakness is your lack of resistance to spiritual attacks. This statement is not correct, at least not in my opinion. In my opinion, your greatest weakness is your lack of resistance to related attacks. The understanding of knowledge. Knowledge is power." Lin Qiusheng said.

"You're right." Fidel lowered his head.These country superheroes, the family conditions are generally not good, when they go to school, they also receive a happy education that will not kill the child's nature, so their knowledge reserve is indeed a problem, Fidel is better, At least he can read most of the newspapers.And like Grant and Victor, they even have problems with the most basic spelling.

"Look, when it comes to dealing with the Headless Horseman, although you have more people, the ones who are more prepared are definitely me and my students, right? I guess it's not that you don't know how to prepare. Rather, you don’t know how to prepare at all. Because you lack the corresponding knowledge, you can’t find effective information from the parties’ narratives, and you don’t know how to make targeted preparations.

Think about it again, if it wasn’t for Elena’s accident last night, we successfully tricked her with that doll stand-in, and then successfully found its graveyard today, and killed it as easily as before, you might You might even think that the Headless Horseman is too weak, right?With full preparation, things that are difficult and almost impossible can be made simple, and a really good exorcist, a good superhero, should try to avoid unprepared actions, just like a magician from No unprepared performances.Of course, the premise of doing all this is to have knowledge.So knowledge is indeed power! "

Lin Qiusheng continued: "I can also give you a compensation. My students and I can devote two months to teach you some knowledge related to occultism. We can discuss the specific time. I think we I can always find time for all of us. In addition, when you encounter any situation and need knowledge support, you can also call me for consultation. Originally, I asked for money for consultation, but from today Start counting, within one year, you will be free. What do you think?"

Several superheroes looked at each other, all showing surprise expressions.Fidel said: "Lin, you are really the friendliest person I have ever met! You are right, knowledge is what we lack the most now. As for time, we can find time anytime, Mr. Lin Whatever time you think is right."

"That's good. I'll go back and arrange the time, and then I'll call you." Lin Qiusheng said.

A group of people went out of the woods together and returned to the parking place.At this time, it was around four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was already westward.It's almost [-] kilometers from here to New York, so Lin Qiusheng decided to rest here for the night, and then go back tomorrow morning. By the way, he can teach Field and them how to use those tree burls to make a pose to exercise their mental resistance. Formation of force.Of course, one night is not enough for them to truly understand this formation, but it is still easy to teach them how to follow the gourd, at least in Lin Qiusheng's view.

However, when they settled down in the motel, Lin Qiusheng discovered that he had to start with the most basic method of drawing with rulers and compasses when he began to give lectures to those guys, otherwise those guys would not be able to accurately draw The simplest array picture is accurate.

"God, when you were in school, didn't your teacher even talk about this?" Lin Qiusheng, who was full of black lines, couldn't help asking.

"I don't know, maybe he told it, maybe he didn't tell it, anyway, whether he told it or not, I never heard it in class." Grant replied.

This is also a very normal thing.They were all raised in the ghetto, and they could only afford public schools.There are basically three sources of tuition in public schools in the United States, namely federal funding, state funding, and community funding.Federal and state funding is given on a per-student basis and is the same for all public schools.However, the community appropriation comes from the property tax of the community, and the property tax of different communities is very different.

In some schools in poor areas, almost 90.00% of school funds come from federal and state funding, and community funding is less than 90.00%.But in some high-end communities, the proportion of community funding can be as high as 90.00%, while federal and state funding is less than [-]%.Your [-]% is less than [-]% of others.This is the state of elementary education in America.

Due to insufficient funds, many schools in slums cannot guarantee the quality of teachers, let alone the quantity. Therefore, in many cases, a teacher has to cover multiple subjects.In such schools, Chinese (English) is taught by physical education teachers, which is by no means a joke.So in this kind of school, it is quite normal for the teacher not to teach, or for the students to not learn after teaching.

In the end, after working hard for most of the night, Fidel learned how to draw the simple formation by rote.

The next day, Lin Qiusheng and Zhang Feng didn't get up until almost nine o'clock. After a hasty breakfast, they said goodbye to Fidel and the others, and drove back to New York.

Along the way, Lin Qiusheng and Zhang Feng took turns driving. When Zhang Feng was driving, Lin Qiusheng sat and rested in the back seat.

"You deliberately make friends with those witches. But what are your plans?" In the sea of ​​consciousness, Dongyue Shangqing Siming Zhenjun suddenly asked.

"Deliberately? Zhenjun, did I do it so obviously?" Lin Qiusheng asked back.

"Of course, you guys have always loved money and were lazy. Now you don't take money, and you don't tire of bothering and teaching people. If you don't want anything, you won't come here." Dongyue Shangqing Siming Zhenjun said.

"What Zhenjun said is true." Lin Qiusheng didn't argue, he admitted it first, and then said slowly, "Did Zhenjun notice the racial composition of witches?"

"Are you saying that more witches have indigenous blood? This is normal. After all, they are natives here. The prehistoric luck here originally belonged to them. Although there were some changes in the middle, the influence is still there." Dongyue Shangqing Siming Zhenjun replied.

"What Zhenjun said is true. I have been in North America these years, and I have also come into contact with many witches. Among the witches I have contacted, seven out of ten are so-called Latinos. Among the remaining three points, blacks and There were nearly two points, but the whites who really ruled the country were not born with many witches. Among the whites, there were more Irish and German witches who came to North America later. As for those who took North America from the natives , and the Saxon Angles, who almost wiped out the natives of North America, have even fewer witches among them—at least I haven’t encountered them.”

"They killed too much here at the beginning, and Fang Tiandi was jealous of this. Naturally, there is such a situation." Dongyue Shangqing Siming Zhenjun said, "But in the future, the extraordinary tide will continue to rise, and when it rises, some air holes can be reopened. , the situation will change somewhat.”

Lin Qiusheng also agreed: "After learning about the Great Desolation from you, this junior thinks that those ancient gods in Europe will definitely covet the fat of America. They will send some power through the air holes, Support those people to fight for more things for them, and suppress the local witches, lest they grow too big before those ancient gods can come out, and instead threaten the safety of those ancient gods. And they have a systematic The church system and the state power are actually leaning towards them. So if I am not mistaken, after a while, maybe there will be attacks against witches."

"Then you still intend to associate with them?" Dongyue Shangqing Siming Zhenjun asked.

"Zhenjun, in the eyes of those European ancient gods, we are probably more dangerous than those witches, and we need to be suppressed and eliminated?" Lin Qiusheng said, "There are cave gods behind us, and we may compete with them for this piece of land. Fat meat. And Zhenjun, in the face of this piece of fat, can the Taoist sect retreat? Where can the Taoist sect retreat? Return to the country and wait for six days of old energy, and wait for the high heaven and ten thousand zhang ghosts to come out of the cave? Wait for them Come out, does the Taoist sect have the ability to form a balance with them?"

The so-called "old qi from the six heavens" and "ghosts high in the sky" are some sayings in early Taoist classics.At that time, Taoism was not the quiet and inactive Taoism that came later. They continued to launch uprisings and wanted to establish an earthly Taoist country.The most famous of these are the Yellow Turban Uprising of Taiping Dao and the separatist rule of Hanzhong by Tianshi Dao.

During this process, Taoism denounced all the original gods as "six heavenly qi", and took it as their duty to expel them.As for the leader of the "six heavens old qi", Haotian God, is derogatoryly called "a ghost in the sky".

After the extraordinary tide receded, in various folk legends, the Taoist system and the traditional god system gradually merged into one.These early words are rarely mentioned.But this change does not mean that there is really no contradiction between the Taoist immortals who own the cave and the "six heavens old qi" who own the kingdom of God.

Dongyue Shangqing Siming Zhenjun was silent, and after a long time he sighed and said: "Although the Daoist sect should have certain advantages in the use of power, in terms of power accumulation, they are still far behind them. .In the face of absolute power, skill is of little use."

"So, True Monarch, we must grab enough fat in the Americas, and quickly make us strong before the European ancient gods and the six-day old spirit really return. Otherwise, we will definitely die without a place to die. Our enemy has already been determined long ago, and there is no way to change it, and we have nowhere to go back."
