Ruins of the past

In the big library, Chu Qiguang looked at the books Lin Lan brought and nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work, Xiaolan."

Lin Lan asked: "Brother Chu, why did you think of studying the Vajra Temple?"

Chu Qiguang smiled: "I'm just curious."

Since the experience of the battle at Chaoyao Mountain, the relationship between Lin Lan and Chu Qiguang has become closer.

‘I can’t help but stare. ’ In the darkness on the side, the gatekeeper looked at the two people eagerly: ‘Chu Qiguang is so young, he must be very energetic. If the two of them accidentally misfire... that would really result in lives being lost. ’

Hearing Chu Qiguang's answer, Lin Lan's blue eyes curved into a crescent shape, and he chuckled: "Brother Chu, you are so diligent."

Chu Qiguang said casually: "I just use the time that others use to drink tea to read."

Seeing Lin Lan sitting closer and closer to Chu Qiguang, the janitor coughed in the darkness.

Lin Lan curled his lips and glanced dissatisfiedly at the direction where the coughing sound came from.

Chu Qiguang looked at the information in front of him.

According to Chu Qiguang's own investigation during the recent period, the Zhenmo Division mainly relies on two methods to increase the chances of entering the Taoist realm of "Xumi Moving Mountain Strength".

One is to practice hard skills to strengthen the physical body, and the other is to use unique elixirs to change Qi and blood.

Based on his experience in the past few months, he guessed that the "Sumishan King Sutra" wanted to increase the chance of entering the Tao. In addition to these two methods... reading Buddhist scriptures also has good effects.

‘The hard skills of horizontal training are easy to solve. I have already mastered the Hunyuan Taiyi Demonic Skills. I have asked Yang Ling to find the remaining Diamond Interpretation Technique and Iron Bone Technique for me. With my qualifications, it will not take long to practice them. ’

‘The unique elixir is a bit troublesome, so I can only spend money on it. However, according to the results of Li Jian's inquiry, if he wanted to buy it from Shuzhou quietly and in batches, it would cost at least one hundred thousand taels. The money I have now is definitely not enough... I need to make an investment. ’

‘Buddhist scriptures are the easiest to solve. Once I finish reading all the Buddhist scriptures in the big library, it will be almost done. ’

But even after thinking about this clearly, Chu Qiguang still felt unsteady.

In particular, his recent hallucinations related to the "Sutra of Mount Sumeru King" have become more and more serious.

‘In addition to these three methods, there should be some elements, some elements related to demon dyeing. ’

Chu Qiguang looked through the research records about Vajra Temple in front of him and thought to himself:

‘Judging from the information I have seen so far about the Vajra Temple, the Vajra Temple has been studying how to better practice the "Sumiyama King Sutra" since the first large-scale demon staining incident more than 200 years ago. ’

Recalling the diaries, letters and various research materials he had reviewed, Chu Qiguang seemed to see how the Vajra Temple had been struggling under the impact of demon dyeing for the past two hundred years.

'In the earlier past, the practice of "Sumishan King Sutra" was actually not that dangerous, because there was no such powerful demon dye at that time. ’

‘The demonic contamination suddenly intensified two hundred years ago, and the Sumeru Mountain King Sutra was also deeply affected by it. ’

‘From then on, the deeper you practice the Sumeru Mountain King Sutra, the higher the possibility of becoming a demon and the lower the possibility of becoming a Taoist. ’

‘So Vajra Temple began to study...how to increase the chances of entering the Taoism through the "Sumiyama King Sutra". ’

‘For the past two hundred years, they have been recruiting disciples from all over the Central Plains to Shuzhou for the purpose of studying the Sutra of the King of Mount Sumeru. ’

‘Later, I even used the power of Maha Buddhism. ’

Chu Qiguang recalled the mantra chanted by the monks of Vajra Temple:

‘It’s hard to find a way out. Where all the Buddhas are, infinite wisdom and fire are buried here. ’

‘The final research on the Vajra Temple must have been successful. ’

‘After all, in the year when the imperial court wiped out them, there were still martial gods in the Vajra Temple. ’

The sharp shouts flooded into Chu Qiguang's ears again. Looking at the golden light that almost filled his eyes, Chu Qiguang thought to himself: 'It seems to be a little serious again. This special effect is going from 1050Ti to 3080. ’

‘I really don’t know how the people at Vajra Temple solve this problem. ’

At this time, Chu Qiguang was also very happy that he chose to forget the knowledge in the "Ascended Person's Notes".

As the most dangerous book on the second floor of the Big Library, the knowledge in "The Ascended One's Notes" will make the reader's hallucinations visible to others and even spread.

It happened that Chu Qiguang had a lot of hallucinations, so on the day of the battle at Chaoyao Mountain, he chose to use the Ring of Foolishness to forget the "Notes of the Ascended One" to avoid all kinds of hallucinations in daily life from spreading everywhere and affecting others.

Thinking of this, Chu Qiguang couldn't help but sigh: 'I am just too kind. ’

However, he also recorded the contents of "The Ascended One's Notes" in his own notebook. If necessary... he could take it out and read it at any time.

In the following days, Chu Qiguang frequently traveled between the library and the villa every day, constantly exploring the history of Vajra Temple and looking for the truth related to the "Sutra of Mount Sumeru King".

…

It was early September in the 16th year of Yong'an.

The defense on Chaoyao Mountain finally began to relax again.

Chu Qiguang took advantage of this opportunity to go shopping and found Chen Gang to make an appointment.

Three days later, they finally returned to Yaoyin Village on the Chongming Bird.

Looking at the sowing of wheat in the basin for the new year, Chu Qiguang sighed: "Unconsciously, the village has been established for a year."

This time Chu Qiguang did not let Chen Gang rule Qiao Zhi and the others in advance, so no one came to pick them up.

Chu Qiguang asked Chongming Bird to find an open space to land, and then he and Chen Gang walked on the country road, observing Yaoyin Village, which they had not seen for a long time.

From a distance, you can see farmers who look like little giants working in the fields. The rows of wheat fields are neatly arranged, as if someone had measured them with a ruler.

While inspecting Yaoyin Village, Chu Qiguang asked: "Isn't Qingyang County a little restless recently?"

Chen Gang became angry when he mentioned this: "It hasn't stopped since the opening of the mutual market. Wu Wei and Liao Chen are simply burning bridges across the river. Now they want to change wheat into cotton in Beiyue Prefecture, and they don't care about hundreds of thousands of people." Life or death."

"Last time Wang Cailiang wanted to persuade them, he did it under the guise of you, Brother Gou, and they were left alone for a whole day."

Listening to what Chen Gang said, Chu Qiguang smiled slightly and said: "I also heard on the mountain that Mr. Wu Ge is becoming more and more powerful in the court. It is reasonable for Wu Wei to become more and more arrogant and domineering."

Chen Gang added: "Wu Wei and the others also swallowed up Wang Cailiang's family's shares in the cemetery."

Chu Qiguang was slightly startled when he heard this: "They robbed me of my money?"

"How could they do such a thing."

"It's so heart-breaking. It's so heart-breaking."

"Lao Wu Ge's son is so ignorant."

Chen Gang looked at the cold light in Chu Qiguang's eyes and backed away with some fear, thinking in his heart: 'Those who owe Brother Dog money must be miserable. ’

He does know that the Wang family is now Chu Qiguang's money bag, and swallowing up the Wang family's shares is naturally equivalent to swallowing up Chu Qiguang's money.

Next, they arrived at the entrance of the village. Chu Qiguang's mood had calmed down, at least there was nothing visible on his face.

A wooden house could be seen built at the entrance of Yaoyin Village. Chu Qiguang could hear the sound of reading coming from inside, so he didn't know whether it was for a literacy class or a labor camp.
