Chapter 701: Gu Yueshan reveals the secret

Splendid Taihang Mountain stretches for [-] miles, and Jukui Mountain is just one of its peaks, which is about an hour's walk from Jincheng.

Jukui Mountain is not very big, and its reputation is not very famous, at least it is much less famous than Kui Mountain and Ma Lao Mountain in Zezhou.

But it is adjacent to Xuanshui, and it is closer to the city, so it is more suitable for living.More importantly, Jukui Mountain needs to be in constant contact with the rivers and lakes. If you live too far away, the news will inevitably be blocked.

The Yan leader brought the money back to Jukui Mountain, and at the same time sent out Jianghu stickers, summoning the disciples of the divine religion to return to their nests.When they heard that the lair had been bloodbathed, some disciples really came from thousands of miles away, including the third senior brother "God Fortune Teller" Gu Yueshan, and some key disciples from Kongziying.

The martial arts of those disciples may not be very high, but they are all similar to Gu Yueshan, good at planning layouts, setting up secret passages, and setting up and breaking formations.I love to study "Book of Luban", "Mozi" and "Qimen Dunjia".

With the help of the third senior brother and all the senior nephews, Yan Beiming felt much more relaxed. Although the twin temples had not been completed yet, the dormitory area had already been repaired.

After the bloodbath of the divine religion, the number of people who came to Jukuishan to send off their children was obviously much less.But not long after, someone threw the child at the door of the divine religion.

There are swaddle babies and slightly older children.

In the face of those children who can understand the words, the parents tricked the children to stay at the door, while the parents hid in the dense forest and watched the movement at the door.

Just like the rumors, a woman would come out from behind the gate, she would squat down in front of the child and ask a few words, and then bring the child into the mountain gate, only then would the parents leave with tears.

Most of those who can send their children here cannot afford to raise them, and they cannot bear to sell them to brothels or human traffickers.Of course, there are also some special reasons, such as prostitutes, widows, and unmarried women who give birth unexpectedly, but they can't bear to strangle, drown, or starve to death.All in all, being able to send children here is somewhat humane.

Why not sell them to rich people as servants and maids?
In the impoverished Liang Dynasty, many people wanted to work as servants in rich families than expected.Rich families generally don't need to spend money to buy maids and servants.Those who need to spend money to hire are all capable and literate.As for the ordinary servants and maids, they caught a lot of them.

The traffickers don't give much money to the children, and they don't give the children any good food. As long as they don't starve to death, they will travel long distances and take them to big cities to sell.Good-looking, big-boned ones can sell for a good price.Of the poor quality ones, only the last one or two could not be sold, so the traffickers left them behind and went to the countryside to collect children.

Those who could not be sold were mostly starving to death, and the traffickers left them to fend for themselves.So many children died at the hands of traffickers.

From Su Yu's point of view, in this era of food shortage, some people live worse than animals.It's not as good as the little white dog in Feng Yu's arms, and it's not as good as the chow chow that often eats meat—Wan Yanqing often leaves some meaty bones for her pet dog.

The life of these dogs is much better than that of the poor.

Su Yu especially admired Senior Sister Yan for being able to adopt so many children, and what's even more commendable was that she even accepted disabled children and babies.And this is the tradition of the Red and Black God Sect, which has been done for generations.In Su Yu's eyes, this is a charity organization that does practical things.So Su Yu was willing to send money to Jukuishan.

Many children were raised from babies. For example, Yang Diao and Dai He were found in a roadside basket by a disciple surnamed Yang and a disciple surnamed Dai. Take one back to the mountain gate.Leave the basket where it is, and leave a note in the basket stating where the child is going.

The reason why the divine religion does not allow internal marriages is to consider that these children may be born to one mother.If the leader messes up the mandarin ducks, it may cause a great crime.Even Yang Diao and Dai He knew in their hearts that they might be a pair of brothers and sisters, or they might be a pair of sisters and brothers.

As for why Yang Diao and Dai He are so beautiful, it's hard to say.According to genetics, their parents should look good.For example, most of Ouyang Jing's illegitimate children are as good-looking as pink butterflies.Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that both parents are good-looking, but give birth to an ugly child.

For example, Su Yu thinks that Zhao Zhen is not good-looking.Except for his mother Tang Ling'er, no one thought the child was good-looking.Up to now, Su Yu still thinks that Zhao Zhen looks like a monkey.

On the contrary, Zhao Tangsu is very beautiful, gathering all the advantages of her parents.She has Su Yu's face and sword eyebrows, and Tang Linger's high nose bridge, big eyes, and big ears.Strange to say, her big ears look very lucky, and Zhao Zhen's big ears make him look more like a monkey.

"Report! Feng Zhenqing, the leader of Huozi Camp, went up the mountain!"

Hearing this, Yan groaned with joy, stood up suddenly and said: "Open the mountain gate to welcome the fourth senior brother!"

"Wait." At this moment, a gentle and deep voice came from behind, it was the "magic fortune teller" Gu Yueshan: "Junior Sister, until now, you still think that your Fourth Senior Brother is your own?"

"what?"

"It seems that master really didn't tell you." Gu Yueshan sighed: "Forget it, I understand what master means, the reason why he passed on the position of leader to you is because he doesn't want the divine religion to be involved in political affairs anymore But now I don't want to, I'm afraid I can't do it anymore. And there are some things that Master doesn't say, so I will say them for him."

Immediately, Gu Yueshan asked people to close the gate, and put up a "free guest sign", and then said sadly to Yan: "Junior Sister is the eighth, the latest entry. So there are some things you don't know, and you haven't met Grandpa Shi. But I have seen it. Do you know who Grandpa Shi is?"

"Isn't it Cheng Wannu?"

"Then do you know who Cheng Wannu is?"

"he……"

Gu Yueshan pointed in the direction of Luoyang: "I live in the Chang'an County Lord's Mansion, the old slave of your prince's junior brother's family, Hu Rong."

"what?!"

Gu Yueshan smiled wryly: "Of course, he has been a slave to the end. The former chief executive is now said to be quite respected in the Qin Palace. It can be said that he is half slave and half master. It is said that Chang'an Princess It is also a great honor for a slave to take care of his retirement. Perhaps it is also because of this that he is willing to serve Chang'an Princess until his age."

Gu Yueshan changed the subject: "Speaking of which, you should understand who created the Red and Black God Sect to serve. Of course, it was for the emperor. Later, the God Sect fell into the hands of Master, but you should know that Master and Queen Mother Chen What is the relationship. You know who Chen Mu (Mu Wang) is, and you can say that he was brought up by you. But do you know who Lao Qihua Tingfeng is?"

Yan Beiming stared at Gu Yueshan: "Is it also a royal family?"

Gu Yueshan nodded: "I can only say that doubt is. But in the eyes of the emperor, there is no word 'suspect'. Since he doubts, then he is not. Hua Tingfeng's mother took Hua Tingfeng to find the emperor, but the emperor did not agree. Admit it. What's even more sad is that Hua Tingfeng has been abolished. Do you know who abolished him?"

"It's a phoenix-tailed hawk."

"But do you know the relationship between the phoenix-tailed hawk and Hua Tingfeng? Let me remind you that the phoenix-tailed hawk has given birth to many children over the past 20 years."

Hearing this, Yan mourned and turned pale with shock: "Could it be..."

Gu Yueshan waved his hands helplessly, signaling Yan Yan to stop talking.

Even the weather-beaten Yan Beiming was dumbfounded at this moment, unable to believe it.But facing the third senior brother, she had to believe it.

Gu Yueshan sighed and said: "Actually, the mentor chose only three apprentices, senior brother Tan Fangding, me, and you. The others are not the apprentices he wanted. When the master was killed, there was only you by his side. You come back and say that the master made you swear a poisonous oath not to avenge him, and also passed on the position of leader to you.

... I believe these words to be true.In fact, the big brother also believes.But he didn't believe it.Because the relationship between him and the leader is the relationship between father and son.And you know the temper of the eldest brother, if your father was killed, you must avenge your father no matter what.But he didn't stay in the Red and Black God Sect to fight for power with you, but took away the Wind Camp and established the Buddha's Gate.

...Actually, I also want to avenge Master, but it is too difficult to get into the palace, so I want to send poison.But I tried my best and couldn't do it.The key is that our so-called second senior brother Lu Xiao, who was the commander of the inner circle Ji Lingyun back then, knew me too well.My method does not work in front of him.It was him who sabotaged my plan three times and forced me to leave Luoyang.

...Actually, I know that you also tried to assassinate Chen Mei, but what was your result?He was chased all the way to Huazhou by a group of masters, and almost died on the side of the road.Do you know who lured those masters away?it's me!
...It was a trick of fate. You wanted to kill Chen Mei, but you were hunted down and seriously injured by Chen Mei. In the end, you were rescued by Chen Mei's son.But let's divide the story into two parts, Chen Mei's crime has nothing to do with her son.After all, this King Qin is still our master's nephew and Chen Mu's younger brother.

...It is precisely because of this that I have no ill feeling towards him, and I find that he is a very emotional person.He once wrote me a letter.It can be seen between the lines that he has a lot of affection for you and the divine religion.

...With his own efforts, he built the Honghei Temple in Beishi, Luoyang, where every inch of land was expensive, and even made some money for the gods to make ends meet.And when Empress Cao promulgated the "Guimo Order", he sent [-] disciples of the divine religion to Yunzhou.Although it has been a bit hard to open up wasteland, at least it is holding on to life.

...Looking at it now, isn't he the one who paid for the rebuilding of the religion?This kind of person is rare.So I am also willing to help him cause trouble in Chang'an, discredit the fifth son Tang Jian, and help his daughter-in-law fight for family power.

...Oh, by the way, one more thing, you should find that Lu Xiao, Feng Zhenqing, Li Mobai, and Ru Shangnong all have very good roots.Among the master's apprentices, my senior brother and I are the weakest in martial arts.That's because they were selected from hundreds of thousands of people.And Hua Tingfeng's bones are not very good, so his internal skills are not very high, but that kid is very strong, he has worked hard on the outer skills, but he can practice light skills.And you have a good foundation, you can cultivate both internally and externally, but you are also selected by Master from thousands of people..."
