Chapter 197: The Immortal Cultivator

After eating, it’s time to go to bed. Because they have been traveling all night, most people are already tired. Since they want to have a good rest, it is natural to take a nap.

However, walking around day and night is not to prevent being discovered by the Orochi. There is no reason why the Orochi can't do things that humans can do with their level of technology.

Therefore, the only thing to guard against when marching at night is zombies. If the Orochi people are indifferent to the army on the ground, the expeditionary force can easily arrive. If the Orochi people do not allow the earthlings to appear in large numbers, then the expeditionary force will not be able to arrive.

destination.

This is the consequence of completely losing the initiative, but there is no way. The Orochi is a dimensionality reduction attack. Otherwise, what else can be done?

Judging from the situation in the existing shelters, the Orochi know that humans on Earth are still gathering on a large scale, but the Orochi have not actively attacked, so large-scale human migration should not be a big problem.

This is an important prerequisite for the expeditionary force to take the land route.

Gao Yuan was actually not very tired now, but if he had a chance to rest, he had to take a good rest, so he spread out the moisture-proof mat, took out his sleeping bag, and let Xinghe have a good sleep.

With Ouchi experts on guard during the rest, and soldiers from the special operations brigade on the outside guarding the area, Gao Yuan and the others could sleep peacefully without worrying about anything.

Gao Yuan fell asleep in a daze, but suddenly he heard Li Yang, who was in charge of guarding, whisper: "There's something wrong!"

Gao Yuan immediately opened his eyes, and then he found Li Yang and others looking at him in surprise.

But no one said anything, Zhao Qiang made two gestures, and Li Yang and the four of them did not do anything special.

It's just a situation, not a crisis. According to the habits of experts like Zhao Qiang, they will never make a fuss over the slightest disturbance, because the nature of their work determines that even if they really face a crisis, they must handle it quietly.

Just drop it. If it doesn't work, you won't go to war like in the movie and kill countless people.

So it seemed that Zhao Qiang and the others didn't have much reaction, they just adjusted their sitting posture slightly.

There is an isolation zone in the middle of the highway, and Gao Yuan and the rest are on the west side of the road. This is because the west side is mountainous and the east side is hills and plains, with more rural areas. For safety reasons, it is also okay for the security troops to walk on the right side of the highway.

It is on the east side, but the marching team walks on the left, which is the reverse lane on the west side, so that even if a large number of zombies attack, they can have slightly more reaction time.

But this time the warning seemed to be coming from the west.

Soon, the special forces team member responsible for guarding made a sound, and someone whispered: "Stop! Who is it?"

If you speak up, instead of just dealing with it silently, it means that what comes are people, not zombies, let alone large-scale zombies.

The expeditionary force's team is dozens of kilometers long in front and back. It can be regarded as a long snake formation. If someone appears from the middle of the team, they will directly come into contact with Gao Yuan and the others. This is normal.

However, Zhao Qiang, whose instinct has become cautious, refused to let go of any suspicious situation. Even if an ant approached the galaxy, he had to figure out whether the ant was intentional or unintentional.

"I'll go take a look."

Zhao Qiang stood up and walked quietly to the west, while Gao Yuan also stood up and whispered: "I'll go take a look too."

"Hello, may I ask where you are going and what you are doing?"

Someone spoke in front. It seemed that the security force had already struck up a conversation with the person. Gao Yuan hadn't seen anyone yet, but when he walked further, he saw a man wearing a blue cotton robe and leading a man under the ridge of Zaoyuan.

Taoist priest wearing Zhuangzi scarf.

Two special forces armed with guns stopped the Taoist priest. Obviously, they did not expect to meet a Taoist priest here.

Although the Taoist priest held a long sword in his left hand and a cane in his right hand, it was obviously unnecessary to point a gun at the Taoist priest. But at this time, in this place, they met a Taoist priest. The two warriors were somewhat

Don't know how to deal with it.

Zhao Qiang stood on the ridge and looked down at him. Then he jumped off the ridge and came to the Taoist priest. He clasped his fists and said, "Hello, Taoist Priest. How do you call the Taoist Priest? Where is he?"

Cultivation? Why are you here?"

Gao Yuan felt that the thunder was rolling in the sky. Didn't Zhao Qiang see too much? Why did the word "cultivation to immortality" come up?

Unexpectedly, the Taoist priest was full of surprise. He clasped his fists at Zhao Qiang and said, "Hello, senior brother. My Taoist name is Li Shuzi. I am cultivating immortality on Tiantai Mountain in the west. I looked down this morning. Why are there so many people on this road?"

I'm passing by, I'll come down and take a look."

Is this a secret code?

Zhao Qiang smiled and said, "Oh, is there a Taoist temple on Tiantai Mountain?"

Li Shuzi nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, it turned out not, but a senior brother from Jicheng funded the construction of the Queen Mother Palace on Tiantai Mountain to worship the Queen Mother, because according to ancient local legends, this Tiantai Mountain was originally the Queen Mother's dojo.

There is a dressing table for the Queen Mother, so Tiantai Mountain is also called Wangmu Mountain, because there has long been a Taoist temple dedicated to the Queen Mother on this mountain, and the local people have decided to call this mountain the Queen Mother Temple."

Zhao Qiang nodded, and then he suddenly said: "Who does Taoist Master Li Shuzi study under?"

Li Shuzi smiled and said: "I studied Taoism in Wudang under Taoist Master Qingxuanzi. Senior brother, are you also a member of the Taoist sect?"

Zhao Qiang smiled, shook his head and said: "No, I am not a believer. I can only be regarded as being influenced by Taoism. Taoist Master Lishuzi, what are you doing down the mountain?"

Rishuzi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This is not about watching the world become chaotic. We as Taoists cannot just watch the evils and evils arise and remain indifferent. So I wanted to go down the mountain to see if I can help."

"You've been staying on the mountain by yourself?"

"Oh, yes, isn't this the senior brother from Jicheng who entrusted me with the care of the gym? This mountain was supposed to be developed as a tourist area, but the infrastructure has not been built yet, so I am the only one on the mountain."

Zhao Qiang nodded, then he smiled at Li Shuzi and said: "Okay, I understand, Taoist priest, you'd better please go back, or you can go to a nearby shelter. After all, it's not convenient to be alone."

Li Shuzi looked at Zhao Qiang, because everyone else was in military uniform, but Zhao Qiang was in civilian clothes, so he thought Zhao Qiang was the one who talked and took care of things.

"I see you are all soldiers. Senior brother, what are you going to do? I haven't seen anyone on this road for a long, long time. Do you think I can do something? Let me contribute. I can also do odd jobs.

ah."

Zhao Qiang shook his head and said: "Taoist Priest, I'm sorry. We have an important mission and can't take you with us. You'd better come back, or find a nearby shelter. Well, I understand your feelings and thank you."

It’s your kind intention, but it’s a pity that it’s not convenient for us to take you with us, I’m sorry.”

Zhao Qiang nodded to the two soldiers and said, "Send this Taoist priest away, be polite."

After Zhao Qiang finished speaking, he turned around and left. He waved to Gao Yuan and motioned for Gao Yuan to follow him.

Gao Yuan followed Zhao Qiang and left. After waiting for a while, Gao Yuan couldn't help but said: "The cultivators have come out, are you talking about the code?"

Zhao Qiang looked at Gao Yuan and said: "No, it's just some common terms in Taoism. Many people don't understand Taoism. In fact, any real Taoist priest, if you ask him what he does, he can only answer that he is a cultivator, because he is a cultivator.

It's their belief

, the word "cultivating immortality" is overused in current film and television works, but for a Taoist, cultivating immortality is their only pursuit. If you ask a fake Taoist priest who is trying to defraud money, he will definitely not say that he is a cultivator of immortality.

What's coming out of this?"

Gao Yuan suddenly understood and said: "Oh, that's it. Then you are familiar with Taoism?"

Zhao Qiang smiled and said: "I can't say that I'm very familiar with you, but I still know a little bit about it. I just asked a few questions and found out that Li Shuzi is indeed a Taoist priest. If he is a fake Taoist priest and pretends to save the world,

Then we should investigate carefully, but since he is a true Taoist priest, just ask him to leave on his own."

Gao Yuan said curiously: "That's it, then why not let him follow?"

Zhao Qiang frowned and said, "What are we going to do? Let a Taoist priest follow us? Do you think it's appropriate?"
