Goldfinger of the Heavens

Chapter 623
Tianlei Village.

The area of ​​Zhuangzi is small, and it is far from being able to compare with the mansions of landlords and wealthy merchants, but the grandeur it reveals is beyond the reach of those mansions. The three big characters "Tianleizhuang" above the main entrance are flamboyant, and you can tell it at a glance. It is written by a famous artist. On the left and right courtyard walls, there is a domineering "Thunder" written on each, and there seems to be a faint momentum on it. People who pass by dare not look directly at the word.

Zhuangzi is located in the center of a bustling town, where people come and go, and it is very lively.

The villa here is a well-known existence in the entire Chinese practice circle and the rich merchants and landlords of the Jiangnan generation, because this villa is the No. 20 ninth-generation disciple of the Maoshan School, the adopted son of the late Maoshan School elder Shi Shiqing, and the famous "Tianlei" Taoist" Shi Jian's mansion.

Taking out any one of the three titles is enough to intimidate one party, let alone these three titles are placed on one person at the same time.

Shi Jian has practiced in the world of practice for more than ten years by virtue of the secret skill of the Maoshan School "Lightning and Thunder Fist". The older he is, the deeper his cultivation. high and low.

Because Shi Jian is strong and tyrannical, and Lei Fa, who is also known as the "Keeper of Ten Thousand Evils", is invincible when dealing with demons and ghosts. In addition, he never shows mercy in his strikes.

Therefore, the reputation of "Taoist Tianlei" is getting bigger and bigger. Not only in the world, but also in the ghost world. Rumor has it that Shi Jian is very likely to become the No.20 ninth-generation leader of the Maoshan School.

Although "Tianlei Taoist" is the best in the world in slaying demons and demons, but because of the high "appearance fee", only those who are really rich can hire him.

This "Tianlei Village" was originally a righteous village, because it is the ancestral rule of the Maoshan School to guard the righteous villages in various places to keep the people safe. Although Shi Jian is domineering, he dare not violate the ancestral precepts.

However, it has been moved here by Shi Jian, and has been remodeled and expanded to become what it is today. Compared with Tianlei Village, Uncle Liu's Yizhuang is simply a ruin.

If you use a kennel to describe it, I am afraid that all dogs will rebel.

At this moment, there are many Taoist priests gathered in the main hall of the villa. These people are all wearing Maoshan robes. The leader in the center is a middle-aged Taoist priest with a serious face and an imposing manner. This person is the Taoist of Tianlei——Shi Jian.

It has to be said that Shi Jian was born with a good face. If he was in the officialdom, he would definitely be regarded as an upright, unselfish and reincarnated Bao Gong based on this face alone.

"Eldest senior brother, I don't know if you have heard of it before." On the lower left hand, a Taoist holding a whisk and two long eyebrows hanging down his shoulders asked.

"Junior Brother Changmei, I don't know what you are talking about?" Shi Jian asked with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Liu is going to take in apprentices." Taoist Changmei said.

"Oh?" Shi Jian heard the words, first his face changed, his face froze slightly, but he quickly covered it up, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, accepting disciples, Liu Shishu's lineage , and it will not be cut off, which is a great thing for my Maoshan faction."

Shi Jian's words were beautiful, and as soon as he uttered them, he received a lot of approval and praise. Of course, only they knew how dirty it was.

Although everyone here belongs to the Maoshan School, within the Maoshan School, there are also various factions, just like the Qingyun School in the novel "Zhu Xian", there are different sects and schools inside, and the relationship between them is close There are relatives and estrangements, and there are even some mutual hostility.

After thousands of years of development, the Maoshan School has developed many branches. It can be said that it is the largest school in the world. Even the big schools such as the Shangqing School and the Tianshi School can also be classified as the Maoshan School to a certain extent. .

Although everyone is practicing the "Huang Ting Dao Jing", but after implementing the details, they are different. From a broad perspective, some schools are biased towards spells, some schools are biased towards melee attacks, and some schools are They prefer pills, some schools prefer geomantic omen, and some schools prefer refining weapons...

There are also extremely serious sect views among different branches. It is difficult for non-disciples of this school to learn the real secret skills and essence of this school.

Therefore, if a sect has no disciples to inherit it, this sect will disappear in the world. This is the case of the sect that Uncle Liu belongs to. The branch he represents currently has only one successor alive. If he does not accept disciples, then It means that the inheritance of this branch will disappear in the long river of history.

This is also the reason mentioned above why many Maoshan disciples hope that Uncle Liu can accept disciples.

Perhaps from the perspective of future generations or outsiders, this kind of sectarianism is simply self-destructive, and it damages the foundation of the entire practice world. This makes many secret skills and unique skills lost, just like those lost traditional Chinese skills.

But existence is reasonable. Since this kind of system can last for so long, there is a reason for it.

Compared with outsiders, people in this genre don't want their skills to be lost, but they would rather bring these things into the coffin, and it's not without reason.

Master Uncle Liu is already very enlightened, and taught many Maoshan disciples to practice talisman formations, which is difficult to see in other schools, but he has never taught anyone the secret skills of this school.

"Brother, I also got a piece of news. The reason why Uncle Liu accepted this junior brother has a lot to do with Lin Jiu. It is said that the junior brother was rescued by Lin Jiu. If Uncle Liu really accepts this junior brother, what will happen in the future?" Regarding the relationship between Master Uncle Liu, I'm afraid many people will sell my junior brother's face." Taoist Changmei said.

Uncle Liu has many friends in the practice world, and many people have received his favor, especially within the Maoshan School.

The words of Taoist Changmei froze the smile on Shi Jian's face, but he still said: "Junior Brother Changmei, what do you mean by this? This is a very good thing. As for the head teacher of Maoshan Sect , if everyone thinks that Junior Brother Lin is more suitable than being a brother, then it’s okay to let him, it’s all for the development and growth of the Maoshan Sect.”

"This is wrong. In terms of seniority, senior brother must be above that Lin Jiu; in terms of strength, senior brother's Taoism is the best in the world; in terms of reputation, no one in the world knows the prestige of senior brother Tianlei Taoist, what does Lin Jiu have? Qualifications, let alone Martial Uncle Liu's apprentice, even Martial Uncle Liu would definitely recommend Senior Brother as a teacher."

"It's, it's..."
