0516. The Storm Is Rising

"Xiao Mu, let us stay with you tonight. This temple is really haunted, more than once. It's not safe for you to be alone." A young man with a small head and a medium height wearing cheap camouflage uniforms said, I washed my face to remove the mud stains and said with a smile.

"No, Chaozi, you can go back." Li Mu smiled: "In two days, it's time to go out to work. I heard that you coaxed a girl from Hunan and will get married at the end of the year. Don't let her wait in the city. Holding you."

The young man's name is Wang Sichao, and he and several other smiling young people are Li Mu's former playmates and junior high school classmates from a village. After graduating from high school, he did not go to college, but he learned good cooking skills in Baoji. There is a good job in the city.

Today I heard that Li Mu is back. Wang Sichao drove a car and made an appointment with his former friend to help repair the Randen Temple. He had not forgotten the affection he had for him before, but now he is still enthusiastic when he sees it. Energetic.

"Hehe, that's right, Xiao Mu, please be careful alone. By the way, do you have the right mobile phone number? There's no time yet. Come on, I'll bring one for you when I come tomorrow. Then I'll leave first." Wang Sichao said.

Li Mu then said to other villagers: "Thank you all for helping me repair the temple. In this way, when I finish the work at hand, I can set up a few tables for everyone to join in the fun." Setting up running water mats is a traditional way in the village to thank the villagers.

Everyone just burst out laughing.

"Then you must come and have a good meal. Xiao Mu will be promising at first sight." Uncle Zhang smoked the cigarette pot and said with a smile.

After dark, everyone dispersed.

Li Mu lived alone in the renovated Randeng Temple.

The night is getting darker.

The wires had been re-stretched, and Li Mu set up a large street lamp in the yard, then took off his coat and started practicing in the woods where the weeds had been shoveled away. He took on the [Zhenwuquan] posture as he did five years ago.

One move at a time, plus the starting position, there are seven moves in total, which are connected and repeated, like a warm-up.

Although there is some spiritual energy on the earth, it is still far away from the mainland of China. When Li Mu uses [Zhenwu Fist], he feels that it is a bit harder than on the mainland of China, and the effect of training is also far behind.

After practicing for a while, Li Mu returned to the meditation room, turned on the TV, and started watching the news broadcast.

The villagers took great care of Li Mu. In one afternoon, not only the wires were pulled, but also the network cables were fixed. It is not easy to handle these facilities nowadays, and the network speed is almost light speed, and there are hundreds of TV stations to choose from.

"An urgent news piece is inserted below..."

The TV screen suddenly changed.

"Because the sunspot storm has entered an active period, causing electromagnetic chaos and malfunction of electronic instruments at altitudes above 1,000 meters around the world, starting from this afternoon, domestic flights have been completely grounded. According to the Civil Aviation Administration of my country, not only our country will "For a long time in the future, aircraft around the world will be temporarily suspended, and Chinese residents can choose to travel by rail and car. These two modes of transportation will not be affected."

The sudden news caught Li Mu's attention.

Planes grounded?

And you won’t be able to fly again for a long time in the future?

He immediately thought that it took him longer than expected to fly over from Gansu last night, and he was afraid that the truth was not as simple as what was said in the news.

But the news said that it seems that trains and cars are not affected?

Could it be said that when flying at high altitude, there will be strange phenomena, but if walking on the ground, there will be no problems?

This is strange.

…

…

"How can I contact this Li Mu you are talking about?"

In the conference room of Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base, when Lu Bing saw Su Cuo and Song Changlin again, the look on his face was already very solemn.

"Xiao Mu said that if you need anything, you can go to the Randen Temple in Baoji City to find him." Su Cuo was once a soldier, so when facing the leader of the army, he spoke directly without the slightest hesitation.

After Li Mu left his contact address, he told Su Cuo and Song Changlin that this did not need to be kept secret and could be told to anyone.

Lu Bing said: "He said that he is willing to serve the country, right?"

Su Cuo hesitated.

Song Changlin said: "Xiao Mu said that he is also a descendant of Yan and Huang, so if the country needs it, he will not stand idly by."

Lu Bing said: "I hope he can come out of the mountain... You two get ready. Tomorrow morning, the leader of the army will personally visit the Randen Temple. I hope you two can accompany him. After all, you are the only one who knows Li Mu."

Su Cuo understood something and said, "The country is in trouble so quickly? Is it because of the Pioneer incident?"

Lu Bing nodded and said: "Masters from the seven major countries are all here. Dozens of S-class masters from the Society of Truth, Knights of the Round Table, Maple Leaf Garden, Icefield, Black Dragon Society, and Philosophical Group have entered the country in various ways. The Qinling Cave may be opening soon, so some of our people have been lost and some are not enough. If Li Mu is really invincible as you said, he may be able to help us."

"I'll go." Su Cuo nodded immediately.

Deep down in her heart, this heroic female soldier still hopes that Li Mu can serve the country. Since the military has shown goodwill first this time, of course she is willing to persuade Li Mu herself.

…

"Who, who killed my junior brother?"

A middle-aged Taoist priest who had entered the iron tower and had a face as black as coal broke into the hospital. He stared at Tie Jun, Zhang Youfa and other [Three Great Vajras] who were bandaged like rice dumplings lying on the bed with a gloomy expression, and asked.

"Yes... he's a god..." Tie Jun recalled the scene that day, with fear still in his eyes.

"Fart, what kind of god? My junior brother is a god." The middle-aged black Taoist priest was furious, thinking that these three people were perfunctory with him.

Zhang Youfa quickly recounted what happened that day.

"Nonsense, how could such a person exist in this world?" After hearing this, the middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest looked like you're insulting my IQ, and sneered: "Flying with a sword? Why didn't you say jump?" Did you get on the plane and fly away?"

"Okay, let me do it." The old Taoist priest with gray hair in a bun came over, stared at Tie Jun, and said: "Look at my eyes..." There seemed to be whirlpools in his eyes. , Tie Jun's eyes suddenly became dull, as if he was being controlled.

After a while.

The old Taoist priest looked back in shock.

He used the pupil technique again, and looked into Zhang Youfa and other people's eyes continuously to read the other person's mind. This kind of mind-reading technique can only be used by people with advanced cultivation.

After a while, the solemn look on the old Taoist priest's face became more intense.

"Master, in the end..." The middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest looked at the old Taoist priest.

"Go back." The old Taoist priest turned around and left.

"Ah?" The middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest felt confused and said, "But Junior Brother Lu..."

"Shut up." The old Taoist priest said, "Let someone book the high-speed train ticket back to Tianshui today. Let's go back to Liuyunguan and tell the Lu family that we are afraid we won't be able to talk about this matter."

"Ah?" The middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest was shocked.

He never expected that his master would see such a result after reading his mind.

Junior Brother Lu practiced in Liuyunguan, but he did not really become a monk because the family he came from was very powerful, intricately connected, and had great influence in the northwest. Therefore, after hearing the news of Junior Brother Lu’s death, Liuyunguan sent him to The master who is the head of Yaowang Hall came to investigate just to give an explanation to the Lu family, but now...

Just go back like this?

Seeing the old Taoist priest's unkind expression, the middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest did not dare to ask any more questions.

"Are those three cripples lying on the bed telling the truth?" He was extremely suspicious.

Liuyun Temple also has a lot of influence in the secular world, especially in the northwest, so the high-speed rail business class tickets were quickly bought - when they came, they took a plane, but now the country has banned air travel, and all the people in the country Planes have been grounded, so the fastest mode of transportation now is high-speed rail.

Seven hours later, the two returned to Liuyun Temple.

Liuyun Temple is located on Maiji Mountain, a famous mountain in Tianshui. It was originally just a small Taoist temple and was little-known. However, since four years ago, it suddenly became famous and several powerful figures appeared. Many wealthy businessmen and dignitaries from the three northwest provinces visited it.

Nowadays, the influence of Liuyun Temple can be said to be at its peak. The Taoist temple has been renovated four times in three or four years, each time larger than the last. Now there are thousands of disciples in the sect, which is a large number.

As soon as the old Taoist priest left, he immediately went to report to the temple master.

The middle-aged Taoist priest stood outside Fuxi Hall and saw a horse-faced senior brother. He quickly asked: "What's going on? I saw that there seemed to be a lot of cars parked outside the temple. Are there any guests visiting?"

"People from the Lu family and the Ma family are here, as well as people from Labrang Monastery and Qilian Mountain. It is said that they want to discuss the Qinling Cave Heaven matter, and unite to ask the government for quotas. Also, I heard that Randen Temple There is some movement over there," said the horse-faced Taoist priest.

"Randeng Temple?" The middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest said in surprise: "Is it the old liar who got the dragon bones?"

The horse-faced Taoist priest said: "That's not true. I heard that the grandson of the old liar who was studying outside has come back to reorganize the Randen Temple and take over the old liar's legacy."

"Hasn't his grandson been missing for five years?"

"Yes, all parties have been pursuing it for five years, but no clues have been found. Now that he has returned inexplicably, it is most likely arranged by the old liar. When the news spread, comrades in the three northwest provinces were alarmed. Some people We've already rushed to Randen Temple." The horse-faced Taoist priest said, "Haha, I'm sorry for that baby, I'll probably be scared to death."

"It's good to be scared to death. If not, he will be eaten to pieces by all parties. Hehe, some people's methods will make even the dead tremble." The middle-aged black-faced Taoist priest gloated.

While talking, dozens of figures walked out of Fuxi Hall, including monks, Taoists and laymen, of different ages, but all of them were in good spirits. They came directly to the parking lot, each with a full-time driver and a modified luxury car. Driving out of Maiji Mountain, speeding towards Baoji.

…

Baoji City, High-tech Zone.

Li Mu made some inquiries before arriving at the gate of Zaishui Fangfang Community.

Wang Shiyu's parents live in this community.
