Under one person: If I let you refine your Qi, will you become an immortal?!

Chapter 277 The old priest, the first person in the world? Report, here comes a Taoist priest with a long face and red phoenix eyes!
A few days later.

Inside a luxurious mansion in Wajima Nagasaki.

"The Lord Palace Secretary is inside."

In the corridor, a child walked in front to lead the way. Yoshiko, who was wearing a brown military uniform, followed closely behind. His boots made a crisp sound when he stepped on the wooden board.

After the arsenal was bombed, Yoshiko took a boat back to the island without any hesitation.

And in order not to be regarded as a deserter by the Kwantung Army.

She made a special excuse.

Intentionally or unintentionally, he exaggerated Li Muxuan's threat and volunteered to hold a mobilization meeting.

The Kwantung Army may have doubts about this, but the successive accidents also forced them to re-examine the aliens. This is why they suddenly changed their plans and let the aliens on their side leave early.

Soon, under the guidance of the child.

Fangzi came to a small courtyard.

The scenery in the courtyard is simple, with only a small lake, a pavilion, and some flowers and plants.

In the pavilion, an old priest wearing a white hunting coat, a black hat, and white hair and beard held a fishing rod in his hand and was fishing leisurely alone.

He looks like an ordinary old man.

However, facing this person, Yoshiko did not dare to be disrespectful at all and immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Mr. Palace Secretary, you have been waiting for a long time!"

Yoshiko spoke.

Every shrine in Wajima has an Omiyaji, who has the highest status in the shrine.

But there are also three, six or nine levels between Omiyaji and Omiyaji, and the person in front of me is the Omiyaji of Ise Shrine, who stands at the pinnacle of the entire Shinto religion!

His status on the Japanese island is higher than that of the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master in planting flowers!
After all, Japan has its own national conditions.

When the shogunate was in power, the emperor was obedient. After the shogunate fell, Emperor Meiji struck hard. In order to strengthen his own divine power and legitimacy, he forcibly implemented ideas such as "one line for all generations" and "Amaterasu bloodline".

Shintoism also took this opportunity to grow rapidly.

Among them is Ise Jingu Shrine.

Because it enshrines the tablets of Amaterasu Daimikami and successive emperors, it was directly designated by Emperor Meiji as the pinnacle of national Shinto shrines and the origin of Wajima Shrine.

That's why.

As the chief minister of Ise Shrine, the old priest in front of him can be said to be the emperor's spokesperson for Shinto.

The worldly authority is much greater than Longhu Mountain!

At this time.

Just after Yoshiko finished speaking, the old priest forcefully raised the fishing rod in his hand, and a big fish was pulled up. While unhooking the fish, the old priest said: "It's okay, idleness is idleness."

"Just because you came here, my fish was hooked. It seems you are my lucky star."

"Don't say that, Lord Palace Secretary."

Yoshiko was a little flattered, "It's just a coincidence, not a lucky star."

Hearing this, the old priest of Ise Shrine did not continue the topic and said instead: "When you come this time, the cabinet has already greeted me."

"For His Majesty the Emperor, the people of the Shrine will fully cooperate with your action."

"Thank you, Lord Palace Secretary."

Yoshiko's eyes lit up, she didn't expect there would be an unexpected gain, and then she seemed to think of something, and she boldly asked: "Sir, do the people in this shrine include you?"

"I?"

The old priest glanced at her, but nodded and said, "Including."

"As long as there is need, I will take action."

"My lord, you are speaking harshly."

Yoshiko's eyes flashed with joy. Not only was this old priest's status and authority as high as a mountain, but his cultivation also ranked first among the four masters. There were even rumors that there were no so-called four masters.

There is only one peak in Wajima Stranger.

That's the old priest.

It's just that since he became the palace minister of Ise Shrine, he has never taken action again, and he has always been kind to others.

Therefore, everyone did not list him separately.

"They are all loyal to the emperor."

A smile appeared on the old priest's old face, and he said: "But to be honest, I have always wanted to meet those flower-growing practitioners who are said to have a thousand-year heritage. Unfortunately, for various reasons, I have never been able to do so."

"Four years ago, I sent my disciple there."

"I want to open a dojo and at the same time deal with the practitioners there and communicate with each other."

"It's just that those flower-growing cultivators are narrow-minded. They especially like to exclude dissidents and cannot tolerate other schools. Not only did they make evil remarks to each other, they even sent assassins to kill my disciples."

While talking.

Mentioning his dead disciple.

The old priest still had a kind smile on his face, and there was no trace of anger, sadness or other emotions.

But Yoshiko could feel that the surrounding air had cooled down in an instant, and the weather in Nagasaki was obviously very hot at this time. This huge change made her re-examine the old priest in front of her.

Especially thinking back to the conversation the two had just had.

Suddenly the hair on my head stood up.

As a spy, she considered herself a cautious person, even when talking to acquaintances.

But knowing the identity, status, and cultivation of the other party, and still daring to ask whether the other party would cooperate with me, was completely unbelievable in the past.

And this can only explain one problem.

I have slacked off!
In front of this old priest, I subconsciously regarded him as a kind and friendly elder!
While thinking.

Yoshiko couldn't help but examine the old priest in front of her.

Compared to her previous relaxation, she is much more cautious now and added: "Your Majesty is right, flower growers are indeed narrow-minded and do not understand the meaning of inclusiveness."

"Not only for the sect, but also for the country. I don't know the greatness of East Asia's co-prosperity."

The old priest smiled lightly when he heard this.

He knew that the other party was flattering, after all, this child was not a Japanese.

everything done.

It's just for that court.

But he doesn't care. After all, when people deal with each other, isn't it just that you use me and I use you?

Now that everyone has the same interests, they will work together to deal with the cultivators who grow flowers. If there is a conflict in the future, they will take action against each other. This principle applies not only to Yoshiko, but also to other sects on the island.

At the same time, the old priest felt.

Even though he has incorporated various sects into Shinto over the years, there are still a lot of sects in Wajima today.

Just this time.

You can use the hands of flower cultivators to simplify a few things.

Especially those who are disobedient.

For example, Hiko-nin, as well as Buddhist sects other than the Ichijo sect, can force them to fight to the death with Soka, and when they are disabled, they will be incorporated into the Shinto sect.

Between thoughts.

There were footsteps in the distant corridor.

The old priest looked up.

I saw a sturdy priest who looked to be in his fifties walking towards me.

"Master of God!" Yoshiko saluted immediately. This person is the palace secretary of Atsuta Shrine. He also serves as the master of God, that is, the priest. His status in the Shinto religion is second only to the old priest in front of him.

Even though the other person looks like he is in his fifties, he is actually over seventy!

In addition, it is different from other shrines.

As a place dedicated to Susano'o and Wu Zun, they have guarded one of the three sacred weapons, the Amazong Cloud Sword, for generations, and their martial arts skills are much richer than those of other priests.

Just thinking about it.

I saw Lord Atsuta saying: "You are specifically looking for information about flower planting practitioners, right?"

"Well, you can say that."

Yoshiko spoke.

Although she has only taken over the department for a short time, Yuan Jingui and Zetian have done a lot in the past three years.

We have collected a lot of information about the disciples of the various Zhanhua sects, such as their methods, origins, and deeds. Of course, because the people on the Zhanhua side are generally very low-key, some of the secret tactics are still unknown.

"Okay, I just want to ask you one thing!"

Lord Atsutian's eyes suddenly turned cold, "In the case of the Manchurian Railway Company, he killed my disciple."

"Is it that Li Muxuan?!" Unlike the Ise Shrine where there are so many talented people, the disciple at their shrine has the best talent, and they share a father-son relationship with him. But he didn't expect that he would follow that disciple just two years after he went to plant flowers. Tuo's swordsman was folded there.

There is no conclusion yet on who the key murderer is!

Some people say it is Mao Zi, some people say it is Li Muxuan, or other flower cultivators.

Naturally he didn't believe the former.

Although there was a conflict between Wajima and Maozi, the old Maozi had long been overthrown and replaced by the new Maozi, who was better at fighting the Steel Legion.

Even if you want to attack the Manchurian Iron Company, you can just drive an army and crush them all the way.

Therefore.

This person named Li Muxuan is the most suspicious!
At the same time, the opponent also has this strength. After all, Takahashi, one of the five masters, is in his hands.

"Sir, I can tell you clearly, yes, it is Li Muxuan!" Fangzi showed a confident expression, but she did not know the inside story.

However, it no longer matters what the truth is.

The important thing is that Li Muxuan is alive.

He is always in danger, so he must be eradicated at all costs!
"it is good!"

Looking at Yoshiko with a serious look on her face, Lord Atsuta's eyes glowed with coldness.

This time when it comes to planting flowers, he must avenge his disciples, kill Li Muxuan and all the flower planting practitioners, and then build their heads into a high tomb specifically to worship his disciples!

"Hey, Yoshida, how can you still have such a hot temper despite your age?"

The old priest spoke at this time.

"The person who killed your disciple may be the man named Li Muxuan, but you must remember to put official business first."

"Please rest assured, Old Palace Secretary." Lord Atsutian's attitude was extremely respectful.

Although he and the other party are of the same generation, they are nearly fifteen years apart in age. Of course, this is not the key. The key is that he has seen the other party's methods before, and he is convinced after that.

Tell the truth.

He believes that the old priest is the best person in the world!
"Ah."

The old priest smiled and nodded.

That's when.

There was a sound of dense footsteps.

Yoshiko looked sideways and saw many people in her field of vision, including elderly warriors with swords, monks in monk's robes, short old men with crutches, and a group of priests and onmyojis in hunting robes.

And these people, without exception, are all famous masters from Japan!

But so many people suddenly gathered together.

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

"Old Ninja, I didn't expect you to be alive. Isn't it a good feeling in the mountains?"

"It doesn't matter whether you feel comfortable in the mountains or not. But you, Xiang Zong, heard that the abbot's first seven years have just passed. Why are you here? Why don't you cry in the temple for two more days?"

"You bunch of hidden rats, how dare you insult the holy monks of our sect!"

"You won't let anyone tell you the truth, right?"

The voice sounded.

As the two sects of Japanese Buddhism in the past, they are now facing each other and hating each other.

The old priest looked at the scene in front of him with a smile. When he saw that the quarrel was almost over, he said: "Everyone, please be quiet. Don't forget why you are here this time. Put aside your personal grudges for now."

"Hmph, hypocritical!"

Shinobu muttered something in his heart, but his body honestly shut his mouth.

People from Yixiang Sect would like to say a few more words.

After all, they are the abbot.

He sacrificed his life for the sake of the Emperor and Japan, so why should he be humiliated by a sect recognized as a scumbag!

But the old priest spoke again and interrupted them, "Everyone, this is Miss Yoshiko who specializes in flower planting and alien affairs. She is also the backbone of this operation. Everyone must cooperate with her as much as possible."

"Of course, if you have any questions about this operation, you can ask her."

In an instant.

All eyes were focused on Yoshiko.

Some are curious, some are contemptuous, and some are doubtful. In short, they all have their own thoughts, but no one speaks first.

In the end, Lord Hotian broke the silence and asked the question that most people were most concerned about: "Little girl, you have listed Li Muxuan as your number one enemy. I think you have collected a lot of information about him."

"Can you tell us a little bit about it?"

Ono's eyes suddenly lit up.

This is what he cares about too.

"No problem at all."

Fangzi agreed immediately, and then said: "In terms of means, my junior's cultivation is still shallow, so I can't see the bottom of it."

"So I sent someone to copy his information in advance. It should be sent to you later. Seniors, you can sit down and read it slowly. Then we can discuss and analyze it together."

"Before that."

"The junior will talk about his talent and character."

"Especially in terms of talent, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the best in history!"

The words fell.

The expressions of everyone in the room suddenly became strange.

They admitted that Li Muxuan was indeed a rare genius, but it wasn't that exaggerated, right?
Why is he the first person in history?

You must know that the last kendo genius who defeated all the major kendo schools, that is, the blacksmith in Yaodao Zhiwan, was only seen once in a hundred years.

This is the first person in history.

How strong should it be?

While thinking.

One person was about to question.

Then the boy who led the way suddenly ran over and said, "Priest."

"The guards at the dock sent people over. They said that a strange flower farmer with a long face and red phoenix eyes had arrived. He looked very young. He killed more than ten people in a row. When he found out, he had secretly put more than a dozen boxes into the river!"

"Long face and red phoenix eyes?"

"A strange person who grows flowers?"

"box?"

The attention of everyone in the room was attracted by this sudden incident.

I'm curious about who this strange flower farmer is who suddenly appeared, and what was put in the box he dumped into the river. Could it be poison or some other dangerous item?

Thinking like this.

Everyone's eyes focused on Yoshiko again.

"Little girl."

"Do you know who this person is? Could this be Li Muxuan?"

"What! How dare he come to the door!"

Lord Hotian was immediately furious and was about to lead people over to avenge his disciple.

At this moment, Fangzi said: "Although I have never seen that Li Muxuan, but from the description, he doesn't seem to look like this, and he has always been flawless in everything he does. If he puts the box away, it is impossible for anyone to find him."

"So, this person isn't Li Muxuan?"

Pity flashed in Lord Atsuta's eyes.

When planting flowers, he might not be able to kill the opponent, at least not with absolute certainty.

But in our own territory, even if the opponent's talent is truly the best in history, he still has to deal with it here! There is no hope of survival!

"Although it's not true, if he can kill more than ten people in a row, he must be a genius at growing flowers."

At this time, Ninja Ono said: "From him, we might be able to find out information about Li Muxuan and the flower-growing stranger, so we must not let this person go."

Regarding this statement.

Everyone present nodded in agreement.

Then the problem is coming.

Who is going?
Just as he was thinking about it, the old priest who had been silent looked at the people of Yi Xiangzong and said, "Hongde, I am also very heartbroken by the death of the holy monk, and I also know that you Yixiang Zong has a big feud with Zanghua Yiren."

"Just in time, you can take this opportunity to avenge the old abbot."
