Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

Shen Yan looked at the old Taoist's expression and knew that he was not very interested in the matter.

Taoists are used to a quiet and comfortable life, and they believe it is their duty to contribute to the country. However, if they are really tied to the machine of violence, they will inevitably have some resentment in their hearts.

"Master, I dare to ask you a question. What do you think we, the aliens, should do after the war ends?"

"Is there any need to ask? Of course, we should all retreat to the mountains and forests, chant sutras and pray for the sentient beings. Although the prosperity of the world is good, it is not what people like us who practice cultivation want."

"Well, let me ask you one more question. What do you think of the technologies such as guns, radios, phonographs, etc. developed by ordinary people?"

Zhang Jingqing pondered for a moment, his tone somewhat low.

"These... these rare items are really beyond my expectation. A small bullet can be equivalent to decades of hard training. Not to mention objects like airplanes, which you can't achieve even if you practice for a lifetime. Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush."

Shen Yan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and cleared his throat.

"Master, the most fundamental reason why I want to let the aliens integrate into the group is to find a way for all of us to survive. Otherwise, disaster is imminent."

"Just think about it. How many times have dynasties changed without the participation of aliens? Do you dare to say that these emperors were not on guard against the aliens who helped them? It was not bad in that era. No one could find them if they hid in the mountains. But what about now?"

"There are planes above and cars below. How many aliens can run faster than car wheels? In my opinion, the current war will not last for more than a few years. There will definitely be a turning point within three years. The domestic economy of Japan cannot support them to win this war."

"Once the war is completely over, that will be the most embarrassing time for us. No matter which side wins, red or white, we are like a bomb that may explode at any time. Master, you should see more clearly than me about the principle that an innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure."

Shen Yan's words left Zhang Jingqing speechless for a long while. His way of thinking was still stuck in the old way and could not keep up with the changes of the times.

He thought about Shen Yan's words and felt that they made sense. No matter how powerful a foreigner is, he will die when facing an army with strong firepower. People should be prepared for danger when they are alive. After thinking for a long time, he sighed.

"Alas, this man is old and doesn't have the smart brains of you young people. What do you think is the way out for us aliens?"

"Fusion!"

"Fusion?" Zhang Jingqing tapped the table, savoring the word.

"Tianshi, the Chinese people are like the two yin and yang fish on the Tai Chi diagram, and we, the Yi people, are the fish eyes of the extreme yin and yang. The only way out for the Yi people is to completely integrate into the country..."

For thousands of years, the relationship between foreigners and dynasties has always been kept to a minimum.

But no dynasty wanted the number of foreigners to increase, thus threatening their royal power.

Now that the feudal dynasty has been overthrown, no matter who he is, his first identity is a citizen of China. As long as he is a citizen of China, he has the obligation to defend his country.

"We, the aliens, will become China's sharpest blade and strongest backing. By then, even if someone wants to attack the alien world, he will weigh the price to pay."

Zhang Jingqing nodded after listening to it: "If this is the only way, it will be a blessing for the alien world and China. But Shen Yan, you must remember that being in a high position is like looking at the moon from a high place. It is lonely up there. Remember the lesson of the King of Chu."

"Kid, keep it in mind"

"Okay, there are several more forbidden techniques in the Tianshi Mansion. I'll look for one that's suitable for you. Come to my room tonight and I'll teach you."

"Thank you, Master."

As the ninth day of September approaches, all the schools and sects are about to set off.

President Gong of the Huawu Association set out early and arrived at a small fishing village in Guangdong.

A hunchbacked old man in a short coat sat in front of the stove, adding firewood to it, his face calm.

President Gong pushed the door open with a smile on his face.

"Brother, I am here to bother you again."

The old man broke off a piece of firewood and threw it into the stove with a playful tone.

"You are the president of the Huawu Association, but you always come to me for no reason. What a shame. Is your son-in-law in trouble again?"

The old man who was speaking was Ding Lianshan, who assassinated one of the five ministers who went abroad. He was known as the Ghost of Guandong. His cultivation had reached the highest level, and there were almost no external martial arts schools that dared to say they could defeat him.

"Haha, I've come here specially to ask you, Senior Brother, to come out and help calm the situation down."

Ding Lianshan turned his head when he heard this, and his face looked like a demon in the light of the fire.

"Coming out? Coming out for whom? Back then, we worked for our alliance, but in the end, I was the only one left here, half-human and half-ghost. We did the work, but in return, we were betrayed."

"I am sorry to your senior brother. I should have been the one to go. The president of the Huawu Association..."

Ding Lianshan interrupted him and said, "If someone in a sect becomes the face, someone else must become the inside. You are more qualified than me as the president of the Huawu Association. Moreover, you were not married at that time, so how could I let you take risks? I am tired of this muddleheaded world. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore and get down to business."

President Gong recounted the story of Shen Yan's plan to gather all the sects in China to form an anti-Japanese alliance at the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.

"Brother, you know that some small sects are wavering now. I will feel uneasy if you are not here."

"With the old Heavenly Master and the Left Sect Master here, and Shen Yan now in charge of Maoshan, everyone has to give him some face, so why would a ghost like me show up?"

Ding Lianshan broke off another piece of firewood and threw it into the stove, and the flames in the stove became brighter.

"Brother, although Xiao Shen is now powerful, we are in-laws after all. No matter what time, our relationship is closer. It is not right for family members not to help."

"hehe"

Ding Lianshan laughed a few times without answering. He lifted the lid of the pot and tasted it with a spoon.

"Brother, making soup like this is very exhausting."

"This is not soup, it's snake soup"

“Isn’t snake soup a winter dish?”

“It’s been a dish for decades!”

Ding Lianshan picked up a thicker stick of firewood and stared at it.

"The most important thing about making soup is the timing. If the heat is not enough, it will be difficult to satisfy everyone. If the heat is too much, the soup will burn. The old mountain owner used himself as fuel to add fuel to the fire, which is admirable."

After saying that, he threw the firewood into the stove and turned to look at President Gong.

"Fill your stomach before doing anything. Even if you become a ghost, you cannot be a starving ghost. It is not too late to continue your journey after eating."

Late night

Shen Yan changed into a Taoist robe and came to the Taoist's room alone. Before he could knock on the door, the Taoist pushed the door open and walked out, followed by Brother Bao Ying.

"Let's go to the square at the back hall."

The three of them walked to the square, and the Taoist priest took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Shen Yan.

"This is the Sea Toad Sealing Palace Method. It is relatively simple to use. Prepare the cursed water and blend it into the Qi of the person casting the curse. If the person who casts the curse reveals the secret, a Qi toad will appear in the Dantian and devour the five internal organs of the person who leaked the secret. The specific setting is up to you to decide."
