Jidao Wusheng: I am invincible in my flesh and tear the weirdness apart with my bare hands

Chapter 53: Encountering the Knife King on the Road! The Bronze Man of Jinguang Temple
The scorpion-tailed leopard, the animal is as its name suggests.

When relaxed, its long tail hangs to the ground.

Once it sees other creatures appearing in its territory, it will immediately raise its tail high, aiming it at the enemy, waiting for the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.

"Be careful of its tail. Once it pokes you, not to mention that you are training your flesh, even if you are training your tendons, you will be in excruciating pain. The wound will also swell. If you don't have surgery and bleed immediately, you will die of poisoning."

Lu Sandao stood on the tree and looked down, reminding from a high vantage point.

"understood!"

Zhang Lingshan shouted loudly, and at the moment when Lu Feng's team attacked the injured scorpion-tailed leopard, he pounced forward with a thick-backed broad knife in his hand, rushing towards the scorpion-tailed leopard that stole the horse.

There were no fancy moves, just the simplest chops, and the blade landed hard on the side of the scorpion-tailed leopard.

"Aww——!"

The scorpion-tailed leopard screamed.

Originally, when it saw the enemy besieging its lover, it was furious and wanted to rush over, with all its attention focused on that place. However, it did not expect that Zhang Lingshan would not abide by the ethics of martial arts and directly attacked it from the side.

With this blow, the bones in the waist were cut by the thick-backed and wide knife, greatly reducing the flexibility of the body.

If the scorpion-tailed leopard is intact, it can twist its body and jump at the moment of being attacked, and then stab the enemy in the air with its scorpion tail, determined to kill it.

Unfortunately, it had already lost the initiative, and when it kicked with its hind legs, the flaw in its waist became even bigger.

Zhang Lingshan took advantage of the victory and pursued the enemy, using a set of Red Cloud Sword Techniques crazily.

A snort!
The scorpion-tailed leopard's spine broke, and half of its body fell to the ground. It struggled and trembled for a moment, then whimpered and looked at the scorpion-tailed leopard on the other side.

"Hong Zhengdao is really generous and gave you the Yunshan sword. If it weren't for this sword, you wouldn't have been able to kill so easily."

Lu Sandao said this in a sour tone, and then muttered: "Damn it, seeing Hong Zhengdao accept a good disciple is more painful than killing me!"

As he spoke, he leaped down from the air and landed on the scorpion-tailed leopard on the other side, cursing loudly: "A bunch of rubbish! Zhang Lingshan killed the scorpion-tailed leopard by himself, and you guys can't even beat a wounded one. It's shameful!"

As he spoke, he stomped his right leg hard. There was a crisp sound, and the scorpion-tailed leopard under his feet whimpered and howled, then fell down with its body limp and died instantly.

Lu Feng and others watched this scene in shock. They didn't expect that such a ferocious and difficult scorpion-tailed leopard could be stepped to death by the Third Grandpa with one foot. Is this the power of a Yi Jin strong man?
Looking at Zhang Lingshan again, Lu Feng couldn't help but have a complicated expression.

I still remember when Zhang Lingshan first came into the sect, he didn't even bother to look at others and was disdainful of talking to such a poor person with no background.

But now, he can kill the scorpion-tailed leopard alone, but they are scared by a wounded scorpion-tailed leopard and are running around.

The gap is so huge that it is hard to imagine.

Lu Feng couldn't help but feel devastated and his mood was extremely complicated.

"Don't just stand there, carry the scorpion-tailed leopard down the mountain and roast it for food. Monster meat is a tonic and will be good for you."

"Yes."

The three escorts and two porters responded quickly.

They didn't expect Lu Feng and other young masters and young ladies to do this kind of work.

On this side, Lei Bao ran over and said to Zhang Lingshan flatteringly: "Master Zhang, I'm here to help you."

"Okay, thank you."

Zhang Lingshan didn't hesitate and immediately he and Lei Bao each carried half of the scorpion-tailed leopard and walked down the mountain.

Soon, everyone returned to the mountain temple. Some people were responsible for decomposing the scorpion-tailed leopard's body, while the others began to grill the meat or stew soup with the bones.

In short, everyone worked together and worked hard for this rare meal.

"The scorpion-tailed leopard's scorpion tail is a good thing. There is a poisonous needle on it that can be pulled out and used as a hidden weapon. Can you use hidden weapons?"

While dealing with the scorpion's tail, Lu Sandao said to Zhang Lingshan.

Zhang Lingshan shook his head: "I haven't learned it yet."

"To use hidden weapons, you mainly use wrist strength, but you can also use finger strength. When you have nothing to do, you can pick up some stones to practice. Although I don't know the top hidden weapon techniques, practice makes perfect. If you practice more, it will be useful."

As Lu Sandao spoke, he unscrewed the outer shell of the scorpion's tail and threw it away.

Duh!
The hard shell hit the tree trunk in the distance hard.

Zhang Lingshan walked over and saw that the hard shell had penetrated an inch deep into the tree trunk. If it hit a vital part of a person, the person would be crippled if not killed.

"Excellent technique, senior." Zhang Lingshan praised.

Lu Sandao said calmly: "These are just little tricks. Once you have mastered throwing stones, I will show you something else."

"Thank you, senior."

"No need to call me senior. You are Hong Zhengdao's apprentice. Just call me Third Uncle."

"Yes, third uncle."

When Lu Feng heard Zhang Lingshan start calling him "Third Grandpa" and "Third Uncle", he was speechless. How come in the blink of an eye, he was already of a different generation than them?

Are geniuses so likable?

It's really enviable.

"I have removed all the tail needles. Crush the remaining scorpion tail and drink it. You have kidney deficiency, so this will be good for you."

After Lu Sandao finished speaking, he lay down on the haystack and lazily basked in the sun.

We captured two scorpion-tailed leopards today. From the battle to the processing of the meat, it took most of the day. It is obviously too late to continue the journey, so we might as well take a good rest and set off again tomorrow.

On this side, Zhang Lingshan obediently crushed the two scorpion tails and soaked them in water to drink.

"Ugh... this smell..."

After taking a bite, Zhang Lingshan almost vomited it out, it was bitter and smelly.

But when he saw that the energy points on the panel increased by 2 points directly, he was suddenly excited.

This is 2 points in just one mouthful. After taking at least thirty mouthfuls of the two scorpion tails, that is equivalent to adding more than 60 points of energy at once.

Good stuff, absolutely good stuff.

'Compared to the monster rabbit meat I ate before, this scorpion tail is obviously much more valuable. Is it because the scorpion tail is the main part of the scorpion tail leopard monster transformation, so it has so much energy?'

Zhang Lingshan analyzed secretly.

In the following time, everyone was full and felt lazy.

Zhang Lingshan was no exception, but he did not rest like the others. Instead, he began to practice Hunyuan Zhengyang Posture, using fire to burn the pylorus.

After burning his pylorus for this period of time, he found that his digestion and absorption abilities had improved.

This can be considered as an accidental increase in the speed of energy accumulation.

Therefore, even if burning the pylorus cannot open the uterus, he will continue to persevere and see to what extent his digestive ability can be improved.

Time flies by.

Silent all night.

The next two days went smoothly without any accidents, and slowly Lu Feng and other young people became lively again.

But compared to the others' ease, Zhang Lingshan felt even more heavy-hearted. He grabbed Lei Tao and asked in a deep voice, "We have walked two more days. Where is Jinguang Temple?"

"No, no, no, I don't know... It seems like I'm going in the wrong direction..."

"You fucking-!"

Zhang Lingshan really wanted to slap Lei Tao to death.

This guy never tells the truth. There is no point in bringing him here. He even eats and drinks for free. If it weren't for the fact that Lei Bao is still of some use and keeps saying nice things, Zhang Lingshan really couldn't help but take action.

"Xiaoshan, be patient. Let's deliver this escort first, and then we can look for it slowly on the way back."

Lu Sandao comforted.

Lei Bao said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, Master Lu is right. We will slowly look for it on the way back, and we will definitely find it!"

"Well, Uncle San, I'll listen to you and deliver the dart first."

Zhang Lingshan listened to people's advice to eat his meal, nodded and said nothing more.

Time passed in a flash and seven days passed.

One day, the porter suddenly came back on horseback with a nervous look on his face, shouting, "Hide quickly! There are rebels!"

"Rebels?"

Everyone was surprised.

Lu Sandao shouted, "Hurry up the mountain, pull all the carriages and horses up, and erase all traces, quickly!"

Everyone did not dare to delay and worked together.

After finally wiping out all traces, everyone held their breath and hid in the woods, then saw a group of people slowly moving forward below, led by a group holding a flag with the word "Single" written on it.

There were about 300 people in this group. After they completely disappeared, Lu Sandao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go check again."

"Yes."

The two porters set off immediately.

After a while, he came back and said, "It seems that the rebels have been separated. There is only this group of people. We can leave now."

"Let's go then."

Lu Sandao immediately gave orders and everyone acted quickly, not daring to delay in the slightest.

Because the appearance of the rebels has delayed us, we have to speed up, otherwise we won’t be able to reach the town ahead.

Fortunately, everyone was lucky and encountered no more accidents. We finally arrived at Boyang Town safely.

"not good."

Lu Sandao's face suddenly changed and he asked everyone to leave the town quickly.

Everyone didn't know what was going on. They were frightened by Lu Sandao's tone and turned around in a hurry. The crowd immediately became a mess.

Suddenly, a deep and loud voice sounded: "It's getting late. It will be more dangerous for you to leave Boyang Town. Why don't you come in and talk. My name is Zhou Lin."

Lu Sandao stopped and asked loudly, "May I ask if you are General Zhou, the Little Knife King?"

"It's down."

The man laughed.

Lu Sandao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He asked everyone to find an inn to rest, and he took Zhang Lingshan into the house where Zhou Lin was.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw a hot stove burning in the room. A burly man with scars on his back was naked, bending over slightly, warming himself by the fire with his back to the door. He turned around when he heard the footsteps of Zhang Lingshan and others.

This was a big man with a beard and a square face. He smiled at Lu Sandao and said, "Please take a seat, old sir."

Lu Sandao sat down, and Zhang Lingshan stood aside. Zhou Lin ignored Zhang Lingshan's presence and continued to warm himself by the fire, saying, "Where are you from, old man?"

"I am Lü Sandao, from Jincheng, escorting goods to Pingjiang City. It is an honor to meet you, General. This is the jujube wine, a specialty of Jincheng, which I have collected. Please have a taste, General."

Lu Sandao respectfully brought over a pot of wine.

Zhou Lin laughed loudly: "There's wine to drink!"

He snatched it and gulped it down, burped, and said, "Master Lu, have you seen a group of people on the road with a flag with the word 'single'?"

"Yes." Lu Sandao answered truthfully.

Zhou Lin said: "Which direction are they going?"

As he said this, he ordered someone to bring a map.

Lu Sandao pointed quickly.

Zhou Lin said, "Okay, Mr. Lu, you have done me a great service by showing me the way. Next time we meet, I, Zhou Lin, will treat you to a drink."

"No, no. It is an honor for me to help General Zhou. By the way, when I met them before, they walked slowly and were not in a hurry at all."

Lu Sandao gave a reminder.

Zhou Lin nodded: "Yes, I understand."

"It's getting late, so I won't disturb General Zhou's rest." Lu Sandao took Zhang Lingshan's hand and bowed to say goodbye.

"Well, let's go."

Zhou Lin was still bending over the fire.

After leaving the room, Lu Sandao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As expected of him, he is the King of Knives. Just standing next to him, I feel tremendous pressure."

Zhang Lingshan asked in confusion: "What is the strength of this General Zhou?"

"Bone forging or above!"

Lu Sandao glanced at Zhang Lingshan and snorted, "Do you think I'm exaggerating a bit, and you can't feel the pressure on him at all?"

"This……"

Zhang Lingshan hesitated for a moment and nodded. He really didn't feel much pressure. He only knew that the other party was a strong man, but the pressure was incomparable to the one he faced when facing Li Ziming and Fang Qiuyue.

Is it because the other party did not take action, or is it because the other party is not as good as Li Ziming?
Lu Sandao snorted, "You don't feel any pressure because you're not strong enough. You'll know when you've experienced more. The energy released by a master is enough to make your legs weak."

After saying that, he was too lazy to continue explaining to Zhang Lingshan, and strode quickly to the inn to meet up with the main force.

That night, it was so quiet that it was a little uncomfortable for everyone. It seemed as if the evil monsters knew that a big shot like General Zhou, the King of Knife, was here, so they didn't even dare to show their heads.

Early next morning.

Lu Sandao and his men watched Zhou Lin and his troops leave, and then continued on their way.

Only three days later, they successfully arrived at Pingjiang City.

Pingjiang City is a small city. After delivering the goods, everyone rested here for two days to relax their tired bodies and minds.

During this period, Zhang Lingshan asked people about Jinguang Temple.

I didn't hold out much hope, but I didn't expect that he actually found out about it.

"I don't know about this Jinguang Temple, but we passed by a place before and seemed to see a golden cloud shining, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. The golden light appeared strangely, so we walked past it as quickly as possible and didn't dare to go up to find out what it was."

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a simple and honest face. He kindly reminded me, "Although I don't know why you are looking for the Jinguang Temple, it's best not to go. Curiosity kills."

"Thank you for the reminder, uncle. I'll buy you some wine with this silver."

Zhang Lingshan took out a map and said, "Uncle, please tell me where the golden light appeared."

"I feel so embarrassed." The middle-aged man said with a smile, very happy.

Zhang Lingshan was even happier than him.

He saw that the place the man pointed to on the map was right in the middle of Pingjiang City and their Jincheng, relatively closer to Jincheng, but it had a longer detour than the route they had taken before.

No wonder Lei Tao couldn’t find it.

It’s not that the direction is wrong, but there’s a mountain between us.

Next time on your way back, just go along the east side of the mountain.

With a specific goal, Zhang Lingshan immediately became excited and swept away the previous heaviness.

Two days later.

Lu Sandao gave an order: "Let's go back to Jincheng!"

I should have bought some things here to take with me, or taken another escort mission and made some extra money.

But Lu Sandao took Zhang Lingshan's feelings into consideration and saved them the trouble. He just asked everyone to buy some easy-to-carry items and set off directly.

Everyone rode their horses at a rapid speed.

Without cargo, there is no need for carriages, and everyone can drive horses at a very fast speed.

The journey was supposed to take ten days, but we arrived in less than five days.

"I didn't see any golden clouds or golden light."

A young man next to Lu Feng looked up at the sky and said doubtfully: "Is this the place? We must have gone the wrong way."

"Don't worry, wait and see."

The escort leader Lu Fangdao glanced at Zhang Lingshan and felt that Zhang Lingshan would be disappointed.

There's nothing special about this place.

But this is also a good thing. If there is really something strange, it proves that something has happened to Zhang Lingshan's father.

No news right now is actually good news.

"Yes, yes, right here."

But Lei Tao suddenly shouted: "I remember this place. My father said there is a big tree with red marks on it where Jinguang Temple is. Do you think it is that tree?"

Zhang Lingshan took a closer look and found that there were indeed red marks.

To be more precise, it is not a trace, but a symbol that is difficult to understand.

“Hey, I see golden light!”

Lu Feng suddenly shouted.

Another person said: "Why didn't I see it?"

Another person suddenly realized: "I understand. After looking at the big tree, you can see the golden cloud. But it is only for a moment, very illusory."

"This place is really weird. There must be something wrong with that big tree. If the Jinguang Temple really exists, it must be wrong. It's best not to go up there." An escort said in a deep voice.

They have been escorting escorts for many years, and the reason they have been able to survive is because they are extremely cautious.

It’s best not to go to strange places like this if you can, lest you regret it when something happens.

Everyone looked at Zhang Lingshan.

Zhang Lingshan was a little hesitant for a moment, wondering whether he should go up and take a look to find out what was going on, or follow the escort's advice and stay away from the mystery just in case.

"It's okay. It's noon now and the sun is very strong. The weird and evil spirits dare not show up. I will go with you to see if there is a Jinguang Temple."

Lu Sandao's old voice was deep and steady, giving Zhang Lingshan a boost.

Lei Tao on the other side said, "I'll go up too. According to the time, the Jinguang Temple should be completed, so I can take my father and the others home."

"Let's go, then. Hurry up."

Lu Sanda's words made the final decision.

So, the other escorts, Lu Feng and others waited below, while Zhang Lingshan, Lu Sandao, Lei Bao and Lei Tao quickly went up the mountain.

Along the way, they would always come across a tree with red marks on it to show them the way.

Soon, the four of them arrived at the platform on the top of the mountain.

What you see is a magnificent Buddha temple.

The main door of the Buddhist temple was wide open, revealing the magnificent interior.

In the main hall of the Buddhist temple, there are eighty-one gold-powdered bronze men arranged in nine rows and nine columns. All of them have bald heads and naked bodies, sitting cross-legged with their backs to them.

"This……"

Zhang Lingshan and the other three were stunned. They had never expected the scene here to be like this.

“Is this the Golden Light Temple?”

Lu Sandao looked up at the top of the Buddhist temple and said, "So that's the so-called golden cloud we saw at the foot of the mountain."

Zhang Lingshan looked up and saw that there was indeed a faintly flickering cloud on the top of the Buddhist temple. In fact, it was the sunlight shining into the Buddhist temple, and then reflected by the gold powder on the eighty-one gold-powdered bronze men.

"Oh, no, that's not the bronze man..."

Lu Sandao's expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at one of them and said, "That person just moved. He's alive, and he's breathing!"

"A living person?"

Zhang Lingshan and the other two were startled.

Suddenly, Lei Tao shouted, "I saw my dad. There is a red birthmark on my dad's back. It's that birthmark. That's not the bronze man. That's my dad. Dad!"

While shouting, Lei Tao rushed in, and Lei Bao beside him didn't have time to stop him.

Lei Tao rushed to his father and shouted anxiously: "Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you? What are you doing sitting here? Stop imitating others and chanting Buddha's name. Come home with me quickly."

Old Leitou didn't move, still sitting upright.

Lei Tao grabbed him and dragged him outside, shouting, "Uncle Bao, come and help me take my father away."

Lei Bao had a complicated expression on his face and did not move.

He was not stupid enough to rush into the Buddhist temple like Lei Tao. The appearance of such a magnificent Buddhist temple in this desolate wilderness was weird no matter how one looked at it.

"not good!"

Lu Sandao suddenly shouted, "Lei Tao, come out quickly! Those bronze men are moving and are going to surround you!"

　Without any preparation, it was suddenly put on the shelves, and there was no consolation or recommendation. I am so sad. Here is a 5000-word chapter. Thank you for your support.
