From the headmaster of Quanzhen, he began to traverse the heavens

Chapter 139 Hou Tonghai Preaching the Holy Way in Kyiv

Hou Tonghai rides a hybrid of Arabian and Mongolian horses. It is not only fast, but also has strong endurance. He can travel three or four hundred miles a day.

Because every time you walk, you can encounter the post stations built by Mongolia in front of the castles in various places. You can replace the tired horses and people can rest. Therefore, Hou Tonghai's feet are very fast, and he arrived in Slavia in less than a month. Kyiv, the ancient capital of man.

Along the way, I also saw many bandits from the Western Regions and Eastern Europe. Especially after entering Eastern Europe, there are many plains and forests. From time to time, a group of bandits will appear without clothes.

However, although Hou Tonghai lost an arm, he practiced hard for more than ten years, and because of cultivating his mind and nature, he lost many desires and devoted himself to cultivation. The practice of martial arts in the past 15 years is comparable to the previous 20 years. Martial arts On the contrary, it has made great progress, and it has more than doubled than when it was healthy.

Therefore, even in the face of hundreds of Slavic robbers at most, Hou Tonghai still killed them in pieces and fled. When he arrived in Kyiv, he unknowingly gained a great reputation in the green forests of Eastern Europe. It is called "One-armed Triceratops".

After Hou Tonghai arrived in Kyiv, he first visited the Mongolian general Hutur, who was conferred by Prince Guiyou in Kiev. After attending the reception banquet at the Kyiv Royal Palace, Hou Tonghai randomly selected two servants of the former Principality of Kyiv who were proficient in Slavic and Mongolian languages. As a personal servant, and then took two servants to the northwest of Kyiv city to demolish the cave monastery, the oldest building of the Orthodox Church in Eastern Europe, and rebuilt the Lingguang Temple on the old site.

When Hou Tonghai arrived at Lingguang Temple, the gate of the Taoist temple was closed tightly, and there were still a hundred Mongolian soldiers and more than 200 guards sent by local converted nobles to set up tents outside the Taoist temple.

This grotto monastery has a history of more than [-] years. It is the first batch of churches built after the Eastern Orthodox Church entered Eastern Europe. Under the current Lingguang Temple, there are two monasteries that have been closed by the previous monastery, Sun Zhixun. It is said that the cave tunnels are where the patriarchs and priests of the Orthodox Church of all dynasties were buried, and it is also a holy place of the Orthodox Church, so it was closed by Sun Zhixun, and the Zushi Hall and the Sanqing Hall were built at the entrance to suppress the devil. .

Hou Tonghai didn't know about these situations, and he didn't plan to find out. He fell down in front of the Lingguang Temple, and the Mongolian soldiers who were on duty came forward to greet him. Then the door of the Taoist temple opened wide, and more than ten disciples and fire workers came out of the temple. Kneeling to the spectator.

Hou Tonghai saw that among the dozen or so disciples wearing gray missionary robes, the two headed should be Mongolians, and the rest looked like local Slavic serfs, who should have been accepted by Sun Zhixun to work as chores.

Hou Tonghai has learned a lot of Mongolian language in the Western Regions for many years, but he is not familiar with the Slavic language, and immediately said in Mongolian: "Sun Zhixun was assassinated by the remnants of the Eastern Orthodox Church, and this teacher is in charge of the Western Regions. The master of the Qing Palace, Yin Daoye, sent the old man here. I am not polite. I have a gentle and elegant morality. I also started out in the business of killing people and stealing goods in China!

Although he is now with the Qingxuan Zhenjun, his old man has long since returned to justice, but this time he came to avenge Sun Zhi Xun Daoist, one is to clear all the Orthodox thieves in the Kyiv area, and the other is to catch the Orthodox Patriarch and kill the funeral. Daoist Sun Zhixun, you are all my disciples of Lingguangguan. From now on, follow me, Laohou, to do things well. Follow me to eat and drink spicy food, make money, and have girls...

Uh, girls can't ask for it anymore, there is a martial arts school, my old marquis's martial arts is not bad, you are loyal to work, I will select a few people to accept as disciples, and pass on the martial arts of my Yellow River Gang to you, when the time comes, your martial arts will be high and strong in Europe. You can come and go at will, and you will gain both fame and fortune..."

Hou Tonghai spoke loudly for a long time, and the Mongolians naturally understood it, but the fire workers looked at the two servants behind Hou Tonghai. The two servants who were proficient in Mongolian and Slavic hurriedly translated.

After a while, everyone understood what Hou Tonghai meant, and also knew that this old Taoist with fleshy horns on his head, who looked vicious and ugly, was not a pure and high cultivator like Sun Guanzhu, but a character like a living bandit.

However, the two Mongolian disciples in Lingguang Temple had just practiced for less than half a year, but they liked Hou Tonghai's words even more, and hurriedly agreed loudly.

Hou Tonghai entered Lingguang Temple with the respect of the disciples, and then asked the disciples to prepare a banquet, preparing to entertain the Mongolian soldiers and local chief guards who were guarding outside.

After two hours, the fire workers presented a lot of boiled beef and mutton, as well as a lot of wine, Hou Tonghai and the others set up a feast to eat and drink in the Sanqing Hall.

An hour later, the local chief suddenly came to see him with his family and gifts. The gifts were just ordinary cattle and horses, some silver coins, and a honey cake made by his unmarried daughter.

In the high-latitude Kyiv region, there is no sugar cane and fruit, and the only way to get sugar can be honey and some berries, so the locals are very obsessed with sugar and regard it as the most luxurious and precious food.

Hou Tonghai never liked sweets. Although he had never seen a honey cake, when the chief's daughter approached with the cake, he did not accept her and sent her to him. The location of a white flower.

After a while, he glanced at the fair-skinned girl, shook his head and said, "Zi Zi is not small, but it's a pity that he looks too weird, that's all, my old man is also at this age, so let's be a Taoist with only few desires. "

After muttering a few words, Hou Tonghai waved his hand and said in Mongolian: "Thank you Chief Urgai and your daughter for their kindness. I will accept this cake. Please join us and have a few cups."

After the Wuergai family bowed and sat in the corner, Hou Tonghai waved his hand and asked people to distribute the honey cake to the Mongolian soldiers guarding the Taoist temple and the local believers. .

After a dozen or so people ate the honey cake, they suddenly died of blood and screaming.

The cheerful atmosphere of the banquet was instantly broken, Hou Tonghai stood up suddenly, glared at Urgai, and cursed: "Good thief, you poisoned the cake!"

The Wuergai family instantly took out their weapons from their clothes and rushed towards the Mongols and converted Slavs, while Wuergai himself swung a short sword and flew towards Hou Tonghai.

Hou Tonghai's footsteps slipped, and he used the Yellow River Gang's highest light-gong shift to avoid Urgai's sword. Although Hou Tonghai's shift was far inferior to that of Sha Tongtian, Wu'ergai's swordsmanship was very shallow. It is because the foreign power is stronger, Hou Tonghai can still easily escape.

After Wuergai staggered with his sword and stood firm, before he could change his attack, Hou Tonghai made a big loop with one arm and slapped Wuergai in the face. Tonghai's tens of years of skill is very fast, which makes Urgai unable to dodge.

Ordinary people in the martial arts will die on the spot, but Ulgai fell to the ground but just shook his head and got up again.

"I've heard for a long time that people in this European martial arts don't practice internal skills, but only practice the kung fu of outer sect forging the body. You old boy is really resistant to beatings."

Hou Tonghai grinned and said, "The old Hou will send you a punch 'Nine Curved Yellow River' to see if you can handle it."

Speaking of which, Hou Tonghai took a step forward, and then he punched with a long punch. Seeing that Hou Tonghai's fist was fierce, Urgai knew that he would be seriously injured if he was not killed. The dagger stabbed at Hou Tonghai's heart.

Hou Tonghai saw that Wuergai was not afraid of death, and it turned out to be a deadly move. He screamed in fright, and when he moved his footsteps, he avoided it by shifting his body. It wasn't enough, but Hou Tonghai didn't waste it for more than ten years. He used the "Wanli Jin" secretly passed down by the Yellow River Gang on his shoulder and hit Ulgai's chest. He instantly spewed blood and flew out. After struggling for a while, he lost his breath.

Hou Tonghai turned his head to see that most of the Urgai family was dead, and a few were surrounded by Mongolian soldiers. He snorted coldly, took out a handful of silver coins from his arms, and with a flick of his wrist, he used what Brother Peng had taught him. In some "thousand-handed darts", the silver coins flew out and embedded in the bodies of several recalcitrant assassins.

Hou Tonghai said solemnly: "This Orthodox Church must have no trouble with our Quanzhen Church. I will go and talk to Grand Duke Hutuer. No matter what, the Orthodox Church's participation must be completely wiped out."

Soon, the persecution campaign against Orthodox Christians and their hearts suddenly started in the whole Eastern Europe. Hou Tonghai had no mercy. He saw these ugly Eastern Europeans as not good things, and he regarded the Orthodox Church as demons and heretics, constantly representing the truth. The church and Mongolian high-level officials carried forward the style together, killing thousands of people with big swords. In the end, after half a month, Kyiv and even the whole of Eastern Europe had no obvious Orthodox church stronghold and believers.

However, Hou Tonghai has suffered more than ten assassinations, but the martial arts of these assassins are too far from Hou Tonghai's, so he has not been injured in the slightest.

In the last assassination, Hou Tonghai also captured the assassins, forced to ask that they kept assassinating Sun Zhixun and himself because Lingguang Temple was built on the holy land of their Orthodox Church, and the Orthodox Church was stored in the grottoes under Lingguang Temple for hundreds of years. The corpses of saints, they naturally cannot tolerate it.

So these assassins are no longer limited to Eastern Europe, but more of them are assassins sent from the main altar of Constantinople.

Knowing the details, Hou Tonghai laughed angrily, and he snorted coldly: "You Orthodox Church want to take back the Holy Land and protect the body of the saints in the holy tomb of your bullshit, hmph, the old Hou will go and dig out all your saints. , throw it into the countryside to feed the dogs!"

Hou Tonghai has always been a pragmatist. He fought with Lu Guanying and Cheng Yaojia in order to hunt ghosts to get feces and urine. Now he wants to humiliate the Orthodox Church. Naturally, he does what he says.

Back in Lingguang Temple, Hou Tonghai ordered people to find the entrance to the underground grotto tunnel in the Zushi Hall. After ordering people to remove the slate at the entrance, Hou Tonghai didn't know if there were ghosts and demons inside. .

To be on the safe side, I asked the disciple to go to the thatched hut to fetch a bucket of feces and a dung pitchfork, and then worried that ordinary disciples would go down and give their lives in vain, so I ordered: "You guys stay at the entrance of the cave, if two After the hour, before I come out, you will seal the entrance of the cave and invite the real preacher of the Yuqing Palace to bring down the demons and eradicate the demons."

After Hou Tonghai finished speaking, he put the candlestick on his head, picked up the dung fork and carried the dung bucket, his eyes were firm, and he walked down the cave with steady steps.

As soon as he got into the tunnel, he felt the wind whizzing. Hou Tonghai stepped forward boldly. After a while, he saw narrow stone caves appearing on the stone walls on both sides. Each small hole was filled with a mummified corpse. The corpse's clothes are rotten.

Hou Tonghai turned around and saw that there were only corpses, and then he was relieved, and then pulled out these mummified corpses. Some of them dropped gold and silver crosses and scepters, and some had rotten scriptures beside them.

Hou Tonghai smiled and gathered up the gold and silver scriptures, took off his Taoist robe, wrapped it up, and carried it out.

When he came out and saw that the disciples were all nervous, Hou Tonghai said with a smile, "Go, all the dead people in the grottoes will be memorized and thrown out."

After everyone promised to go down, Hou Tonghai called his two personal servants to turn back to the bedroom, put away the gold and silver, and then shook out dozens of scriptures and asked, "Look at what is written in these scriptures. What is it?"

The two servants, who were not literate enough, read the pages together for a long time, then bowed and said, "Master, most of them are the Gospels and Revelation of the Orthodox Church, and there are some that we don't understand. It seems to be called the Holy Knight Body Refinement Method."

"Oh? Paladins, aren't you the masters who fought in Jerusalem in the last century of the Christian Court? The Paladin forging method must be the outer martial arts of the people in the martial arts in this extreme western land, and Urgai will only write superficially. He has no internal strength in his moves, but he has a strong physique and seems to have the ability to protect his body. I am afraid it is similar to this paladin's body training method."

Hou Tonghai was so happy that he asked the two of them to carefully jump out the paladin body forging method. Then, seeing that the two could not translate it, he asked Hutur, the Grand Duke of Wanhu, who was entrusted in Kyiv, to send a few scholars. Have them translate the Paladin Physique.

After a week, I finally translated the seven or eight paladin body training methods, some of which are repeated, and some are slightly different. Hou Tonghai is also a famous martial arts master. After the order is completed, it is sorted and translated into Chinese characters.

Hou Tonghai was already very familiar with this "Paladin Body-Forging Method" at this time. Compared with the martial arts in the Central Plains that he knew, he felt that it was a strange skill that was different from that of the Middle Earth. It seems a little superficial, but after the practice session, it seems that the more you practice, the stronger it becomes.

After learning it, you will be able to practice the superb horizontal practice kung fu, and your muscles and bones will be strong and your strength will increase. Even if you don’t have internal skills, you can become a master of external skills. Turning from outside to inside, even if it is not comparable to the four great masters at that time, it will definitely be no problem to catch up with the Seven Masters of Quanzhen.
