Chapter 1375: Saints never die, thieves never cease

In the forest, in the chariot formation of the Suihuo Sect.

The boy in green sitting in front of the cart took out a scroll from his sleeve. He spread the scroll and solemnly recited the sacrificial text written on the scroll: "Now there are disciples of the Suihuo Sect, Fengmen Sect, Yanyan Sect, Jichai Sect... all sects of the Kitchen God, gathered at Huashan to offer sacrifices to the ancestors.

Alas, I beg you to accept my sacrifice——"

The boy's deliberately prolonged syllables echoed in the forest. All the Kitchen God sect members looked solemn and knelt down towards the blazing fire in the center of the open field.

"When people first built a big stove, they followed the will of heaven and responded to people.

The blazing fire will last forever!"

After the Kitchen God sect members bowed their heads three times, the boy in green threw the scroll in his hand into the fire. The scroll was instantly devoured by the raging fire and dispersed into green smoke.

The boy stood up on the carriage, looked at the Kitchen God followers around, and said loudly: "The gathering of firewood and fire is complete!

Each sect and lineage take the sacrifice and enjoy the blessing of the ancestors!"

The Kitchen God followers got up from the ground upon hearing the voice, and cast their eyes towards the volcano burning fiercely in the center of the forest, with hope and trepidation in their eyes.

This "gathering firewood and fire" ceremony requires all the sects and lines of the Kitchen God to take out the firewood and fire they have accumulated and gather them into the flame used to offer sacrifices to the "Kitchen God".

After the ritual is completed, each sect and lineage will take the firewood and fire as sacrifices and offerings in turn.

Such rituals have existed in ancient times. It is a redistribution of the resources and benefits of each sect of the Kitchen God to balance the major sects, so that the weak among them can enjoy the care of the sect, obtain certain resources, and have a chance to breathe temporarily;

so that the strong among them can pay a little price and gain the support of the weak.

After all, the fire is the foundation of the Kitchen God Sect's practice. The fire of ordinary Kitchen God Sects cannot deter too terrifying ghosts, but the fire of large sects, because of their rich accumulation and strong foundation, can deter evil ghosts, fierce ghosts, and even ghost kings.

Gathering the fire seeds of various sects in one place can make the fires merge and improve the fire. The weak Kitchen God Sect can also get the light of large sects such as Fengmen and Suihuo.

The original intention of this ritual was good.

However, the ritual has been passed down to this day and has long become another form.

——As the blue-clothed boy of Suihuo Sect finished speaking, a middle-aged man stood out from the crowd in the Suihuo Sect's chariot formation and approached the volcano in the center of the open field. He touched the jumping flames with his fingers, and strands of flames coiled around his five fingers like snakes, then climbed over his forearms, upper arms, neck, and finally flooded into his eyes, ears, mouth and nose.

He took a breath of firewood, and was immediately satisfied, and turned away.

The mountain of fire in the center of the open field shrank by half in an instant!

The Kitchen God Cult members saw this situation and were silent. The hope in their eyes disappeared, leaving only anxiety and tension.

After the Sui Fire Vein, a young disciple from the Feng Gate Vein also walked out, took most of the remaining firewood, and returned to his own car formation with satisfaction.

The "Firewood Gathering Ceremony" has been carried out until now, and the care for the so-called weak veins has long been in name only, and it has become a shortcut for the big veins to quickly train disciples.

After all, it is not necessarily possible to have the opportunity to gather firewood with various characteristics and return it to one of their own disciples.

"Ah..." Zhou Xingzuo looked at the firewood that was divided by the Feng Gate Vein again, and it became extremely weak all of a sudden. The old man sighed deeply and was somewhat uninterested.

Now, this so-called ceremony of gathering firewood has become a "tax" that these weak veins pay to the strong branches and trunks!

All the members of the Kitchen God Sect had the same feeling as Zhou Xingzuo, but they dared not speak out. They lowered their heads and took away the firewood in the field one by one, and the pile of firewood was completely extinguished.

——The firewood they took back was less than half of the firewood they paid out.

"The saints are not dead, and the thieves are not dead..." Su Wu looked at the current situation and finally understood that the Kitchen God Sect today seems to be much more powerful than the Kitchen God Sect in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Why is it that ordinary Kitchen God disciples are not as good as the state when the master just reorganized the "Yin Xi Vein"?

There must be a reason why the two powerful veins of Suihuo and Fengmen are lying on the heads of ordinary sects and eating their flesh and blood!

The bulk of the firewood was eaten up by the powerful and noble families in the Kitchen God Sect!

"What are you depressed about?" The giant iron tower man standing in front of the Fengmen Vessel chariot array looked around. He saw the gloomy and silent appearance of the Kitchen God Cult members. He raised his head and said loudly, "This kind of gift of gathering firewood is just a bonus for my family.

The proceeds from it can only benefit a young disciple of mine a little!

And this kind of income is not enough to support the Fengmen Vessel and make it go to a higher level - Fengmen Vessel disciples can only improve themselves and their firewood cultivation to a higher level - the same is true for you, only by improving yourself and making progress can your firewood cultivation and your respective sects go to a higher level!

Eating and waiting for death, picking up laziness and playing tricks are not a long-term solution.

Only self-improvement!"

When the giant man spoke, the Kitchen God Cult members looked embarrassed, forced a smile, and echoed him.

"Feng Xiong, the Kitchen God, is right."

"You are right!"

"We will remember this and strive to be stronger in the future..."

Amidst all the echoes, Feng Xiong, who was revered as the Kitchen God and controlled the entire Fengmen Meridian, nodded with satisfaction.

However, just as everyone's voices gradually subsided, a young man's high-pitched cry suddenly sounded. The already sharp voice became even more harsh when it fell on Feng Xiong's ears: "It sounds nice, You are riding on everyone's head and blocking the road above everyone.

How can we strengthen ourselves?

The way up is blocked, because of your mother's strength——"

The young man originally wanted to blend in with the crowd and make fun of Fengmen and Suihuo, but he didn't find the right time. His next voice immediately became very conspicuous - the crowd's words suddenly fell silent. Everyone's eyes were wandering around the forest farm, looking for the young man who spoke out.

Feng Xiong narrowed his eyes, and his eyes instantly turned to the direction where Zhou Xingzuo and Wang Yun were gathering.

There was a donkey cart not far behind Zhou Xingzuo. A young man was leaning on the donkey cart at this time, with a look of panic on his face - the person who screamed and taunted was him!

“What crazy nonsense are you talking about?!

There is no place for you to show off! "When the whole place was silent, Zhou Xingzuo, who was standing next to Wang Yun, spoke angrily. His face, mixed with emotions of anger or fear, became too ferocious. The old man stepped forward and walked quickly. The young man stepped forward and slapped the young man hard several times!

After a few slaps, the young man's face suddenly swelled up.

"Are you wrong?!

Kneel down!

Say you are wrong, say you are wrong! "Zhou Xingzuo gave stern orders, especially punching and kicking the young people.

The young man looked horrified, and he knelt down according to Zhou Xingzuo's words, kowtowing to Zhou Xingzuo repeatedly: "I was wrong, Master, I was wrong..."

"Don't knock on me!

He Feng Xiong Zao Prince apologizes, apologizes! "

"Yes Yes……"

Zhou Xingzuo, a young disciple, quickly turned to the giant man from the Iron Tower with his eyes narrowed and a cold air exuding from his body, and kowtowed to him again to admit his mistake.

Feng Xiong stared at the young man who kept kowtowing to him and admitted his mistake for a long time, and suddenly sighed.

Zhou Xingzuo, who had been paying attention to the changes in his expression, relaxed a little, thinking that this disaster had turned around.

However, he saw Feng Xiong shake his head and said aloud: "If you say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing, how can you not pay a price?

What's the use of admitting my mistake at this time?

Just tie your hands and feet and crawl over.

Fortunately, if you offend someone within your own family or an elder, the punishment can be lighter. If you offend an outsider, it won't just be as simple as being taught a lesson.

Losing one's life because of wrong words is a common thing! "

Feng Xiong's words fell to the ground, and the Kitchen God Sect was as silent as cicadas.

The implication of his words was extremely obvious - if this disciple of Xingzuo's sect does not restrain himself today and comes to be punished, it will not only be as simple as being taught a lesson, but he may even lose his life because of it!

Zhou Xingzuo opened his mouth and looked at Lord Fengmenmai Zao, who had turned his head and no longer looked at him. Then he looked at the disciple kneeling at his feet. With trembling lips, he looked at the young man on the ground. The person struggled to squeeze out a few words: "You do what Lord Fengxiong Zao said.

After all, he is also an elder of the Kitchen God Sect, so he won’t embarrass you too much..."

The young man's intestines were now full of regret. When he heard Zhou Xingzuo's words, he burst into tears. He kowtowed to his master three more times, then tied his hands and feet, and knelt down in front of the Fengmen Meridian's formation.

From the array of Fengmen Meridians, a disciple came out with a sneer in his eyes, grabbed the muddy young man, and threw him into a mule carriage.

On the mule carriage, there was also a Yinxi disciple named Kang Wu whose hands were tied.

The two young people looked at each other and felt even more pitiful.

Now the mountain forest, which was full of people, became increasingly deserted. Before the Fengmen and Suihuo branches arrived, the forest farm where only the various branches of the Zao Shen Cult gathered, was now much more lively than when the Fengmen and Suihuo branches gathered.

Today the next farce seems to have been resolved.

There had been no sound. Among the Sui Huo Pulse who were watching quietly, a young boy in green was sitting at the front of the car. Finally, a powerful voice came out: "Now the 'Fu Huo Order' is issued to all sects." The purpose of gathering under Huashan Mountain is to gather the strength of everyone to deal with the ever-changing world situation.

——Nowadays, in the temples, there are people with ulterior motives who usurp the position of the "Head of the Kitchen God", deceive and confuse the people, and taint our Kitchen God religion.

I really intend to unite all the branches into one, and as the leader of the Kitchen God, I will enter the palace and speak clearly, so that the arrogant people will reveal their true colors, and then gather the power of the whole sect to earn a place on the 'Xuanmen Ranking'. With this fame, our Kitchen God Great Sect has gone from being a hidden sect among the people to becoming one of the most prominent sects in the world!

In this way, it will be beneficial to the Kitchen God Sect for generations to come.

I don’t know what the thoughts of those who are in charge of the dharma lineage are like? "

The boy in green is sitting at the front of the car, and sitting inside the car is his grandfather - now the Suihuo Pulse Stove Prince and the Kitchen God Cult Leader 'Yi Baiyun'.

After Yi Baiyun finished speaking, all the Kitchen God's disciples looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses without saying a word.

The previous actions of the Kitchen God Lord Fengmenmai made everyone present in the Kitchen God Cult fearful. They were deeply afraid that if they suddenly said a wrong word, they would suffer the humiliation of binding their hands and feet, kneeling on the ground, and the unknown consequences after this humiliation. punish.

Seeing this situation, the boy in green clothes sitting at the front of the car raised his childish voice and said, "You don't have to worry. The Kitchen God Sect is a sect that gathers the efforts of everyone. No one's voice in the sect can be heard." should be ignored.

Just speak your mind freely.

The Suihuo Vein will never be angry with you for your words, and will not let you be "punished for your words". If you have any ideas or opinions, just speak them out! "

This blue-clothed boy looks only eight or nine years old, but his words are appropriate and his actions are measured. If you ignore his childish appearance, I am afraid that others will think he is a well-educated young man from a noble family.

However, in other words, the Suihuo Vein claims to be a descendant of the Suihuang Emperor. Just based on the Suihuang Emperor's bloodline, the boy can indeed be regarded as a noble family.

Soon after the boy spoke, the head of the 'Huogou Vein' spoke out.

Su Wu looked at Looking at the Fire Dog Vein's stove master who spoke first, this stove master is still relatively "young", a middle-aged man, and Su Wu saw at a glance that he had been secretly connected with the Sui Fire Vein for a long time. Now he spoke first to encourage everyone and then to "throw a brick to attract jade".

The Fire Dog Vein's stove master is the "stoker" invited by the Sui Fire Vein.

"Now Alang is the leader of the Kitchen God. Alang is the orthodox of the Kitchen God Sect. Your status and position are recognized by all Kitchen God disciples in the world!

Since you are already the leader of the Kitchen God, why do you need to merge all the veins?

If you want to compete on the Xuanmen list, just go ahead. None of us Kitchen God disciples will stop you, and there is no need to go to great lengths to "combine all the Dharma veins", right? "The Fire Dog Vein Kitchen Master said this to the Kitchen God Master 'Yi Baiyun' who had never appeared in the carriage in the center of the Sui Fire Vein.

He called 'Yi Baiyun' 'Alang', which was the name of the master of the house by the servants.

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard the words of the Fire Dog Vein Kitchen Master. They didn't know why the Fire Dog Vein Kitchen Master would call the Kitchen God Master in this way, but there were also those who had experienced the world for a long time and were well-versed in human nature. They tasted something unusual from the words of the Fire Dog Vein Kitchen Master.

In the carriage, Yi Baiyun replied: "Now on the Xuanmen list, there are heroes like clouds and warriors like rain. Most of them are famous giants of a sect.

For example, Master Huizhao is the master of the Buddhist Dharma, and Han Guangzi is also the great master of the Maoshan Sect.

Such extravagant figures all have sects behind them, and among the Kitchen God Sect, how can the Suihuo Sect alone be compared with the great sects such as the Faxiang Sect and the Maoshan Sect?

Even if the many Dharma lines in the Kitchen God Sect are gathered together, it is only barely able to compete with these great sects of the Xianjiao Sect. That is why I want to gather the Kitchen God Sects in the world.

If the Kitchen God Sects in the world are gathered together, the Kitchen God disciples are all one family, regardless of you and me, what is wrong with this?

We all work together to practice and make progress together, and we can carry forward the Kitchen God Sect!

This is my sincere wish, I wonder what you think? "

After hearing this, many Kitchen God Sect members were still hesitant, and the Fire Dog Sect Master had already bowed to Yi Baiyun in the Suihuo Sect's carriage: "The Kitchen God Sect was originally created by the Kitchen God with a wisp of flame that fell off Suihuang's body, and then spread to the world.

The Suihuo lineage is the descendant of Empress Sui, and is the orthodox lineage of the Kitchen God!

It is right for you, Alang, to unite all the sects and unify the Kitchen God sect for thousands of years. I am willing to lead the Huogou lineage and merge it into the Suihuo lineage to help unify the Kitchen God sect! "

"Okay.

There are indeed many knowledgeable people in my Kitchen God sect.

If you are willing to come first, I also have a great gift to give you. "There was not much joy in Yi Baiyun's voice.

After he finished speaking, the boy in green turned around and lifted the curtain, and got into the luxuriously decorated carriage.

The moment the boy lifted the curtain, Su Wu looked inside the curtain and could only see the bright flames jumping inside, but could not catch the figure sitting inside.

After a while, the boy got out of the carriage again, holding an oil lamp and handed it to the stove master of the Fire Dog Vein.

In the lamp, the golden and red flames jumped endlessly, and the firewood stored in it was extraordinary, how much Even after decades of accumulation, it is not certain that such a fire can be cultivated!

The Fire Dog Vein Master touched the flame with his finger, and the flame suddenly went out -

Then, the Fire Dog Vein Master's body was burning with a blazing golden red fire!

The golden red fire was terrifying, and after the middle-aged master of the Fire Dog Vein swirled around, it was taken back into his body. The Fire Dog Vein Master was overjoyed and bowed to Yi Baiyunxing to thank him.

After the Fire Dog Vein, there were the masters of the two main branches of the Black Stove Vein and the Fire Dragon Vein. People followed suit, expressing their willingness to join the Suihuo Vein.

As a bystander, Su Wu had already seen that whether it was the Fire Dog Vein, the Fire Dragon Vein, or the Black Stove Vein, in fact, their respective heads of stoves had already joined the Suihuo Vein earlier, and now they were just going through the motions, using themselves as a guide to get other blind and undecided sects to follow and join the Suihuo Vein.

——Although the heads of stoves of these major sects joined the Suihuo Vein, most of their disciples looked confused and had not yet accepted such a big change.

The heads of stoves each got They have gained huge benefits, but their disciples have not received any benefits, and have not received a single wisp of firewood from the Sui Fire Vein!

Moreover, the three veins have been merged into the Sui Fire Vein in order of priority.

The rewards given to them by the Sui Fire Vein are also from more to less. When the head of the Black Stove Vein said that he was willing to merge into the Sui Fire Vein, Yi Baiyun only gave him a wisp of light red firewood, which was only slightly stronger than when Su Wu first condensed his Fire God Body.

——The rewards given by Yi Baiyun to the head of the sect who merged into his own sect should also stop here.

From now on, those who are willing to merge their family's teaching lineage into the Suihuo lineage will inevitably receive less and less rewards. The total rewards received by all the remaining people may not be as good as those of the first person who voted for the Firedog lineage. .

Things developed exactly as Su Wu guessed.

Under Yi Baiyun's heavy reward, other masters of the teaching line were really interested and expressed their willingness to merge their own teaching line into the Suihuo Line.

At first, Yi Baiyun would give a few wisps of light red fire as a symbolic gift, but in the end, the one who worshiped the Suihuo vein received no reward at all, only a few words of honor from Yi Baiyun.

At this time, in the forest farm, except for the Fengmen vein, only two of the six main branches of the teaching veins have not moved, and half of the side branch weak veins are still waiting and watching. At this time, they are still undecided.

Yi Baiyun in the carriage said: "Since you don't want to join my Suihuo Pulse, I will not force you to do so. It's just that our resources are limited and our manpower is limited. If you encounter any danger in the future, if I, Suihuo Pulse, We can't help each other, but I hope you don't feel resentful because of this.

Between heaven and earth, dangerous variables exist everywhere.

Maybe Huashan, which looks fine today, will have the ghost king and Tiangui appear in the next moment.

Even if no evil deceit appears, there will be changes in personnel, who can say for sure?

You are not Suihuo disciples, but your Suihuo veins cannot take care of you - it is right to take care of your own family first. "

Yi Baiyun said a few words in a neutral tone.

The remaining Kitchen God Cult Masters were all worried after hearing the words of the Suihuo Stove Prince. They had not followed Yi Baiyun's wishes and merged their own cults into the Suihuo Vein, so they were worried that Yi Baiyun would do something to them. Settle accounts after autumn'.

These people who teach and master the art of teaching have a clear understanding of the current situation.

He knows that if his family's teaching veins are merged into the Suihuo veins, he will get some benefits, but his disciples will not get any benefits if they are in the Suihuo veins, and they will most likely have a bad fate.

Although the Suihuo Lineage refers to the disciples who have merged into their sect as 'family members', it can be seen with the naked eye that they will not regard the disciples of other sects who have merged into their lineage as their own family at all!

——This is the reason why the remaining religious lineages are hesitant and unwilling to merge their own religious lineages into the Suihuo Lineage.

Fortunately, Yi Baiyun kept his word and did not anger the remaining Kitchen God sect because they did not obey his wishes.

After what he said, Sui Huo Pulse remained quiet.

The remaining Kitchen God Cult members didn't know what plans they had next, and neither Fengmen Vein nor Suihuo Vein had any plans to leave, so they had no choice but to wait here.

At this time, Feng Xiong, Fengmen Zao Prince, who had been watching the Suihuo Vein merging the main branches and side branches under the door, grinned: "The matter of the Suihuo Vein has been decided, now it is our Fengmen Vein's turn. Got it!

Fengmen Meridian also has the intention to compete for the ranking on the Xuanmen Ranking, and it needs your strong support! "

The giant man from the Iron Tower waved his hand casually, and from the car array with flags and flags waving behind him, Fengmen disciples immediately walked out one by one and scattered in the forest. However, in a moment, they seemed to be surrounding the remaining Kitchen God Cult members. !

The remaining Kitchen God Cult members who had not been incorporated into the Suihuo Pulse were immediately horrified when they saw this situation.

Their family background is meager. Even if they have the Yanyan Meridian and the Jichai Meridian as the starting points, their combined power cannot be compared with the Fengmen Meridian. What's more, the remaining veins are not prepared at all and cannot unite. So, immediately there is The disciples of the Cult turned their attention to the Suihuo Vein - Suihuo and Fengmen had been at odds with each other in the past, which maintained a delicate balance within the Kitchen God Sect.

Now the only thing that can block the Fengmen Vein is the Suihuo Vein!

However, in the past, Suihuo Meridian, who often had disagreements with Fengmen Meridian and fought with each other, now stands still. Suihuo disciples occupy the forest farm on the other side, blocking the last retreat of the remaining Kitchen God disciples!

Someone suddenly realized——

"They made an agreement!"

"The two veins are going to carve us up!"

"What do you want to do! Do you want to kill each other, brothers and sisters?!"

The Kitchen God Cult members looked around in panic, seeing the Fengmen disciples pressing closer and closer. Just when they were at a loss what to do, they heard the Fengmen Kitchen Lord burst into laughter.

Feng Xiong said loudly: "Everyone!

Every disciple of Kitchen God’s sect is responsible for the rise and fall of Xinhuo! Now you have failed to catch up, and you are destined to miss the competition on the Xuanmen rankings. You are unable to make the Stove God Sect prosper in the world. Running around and traveling to various places is just a waste of time and life!

But you do have some firepower and some strength in your hands.

Why don't you contribute the little fuel you have and the little energy you have to use for my Fengmen Meridian? !

I am here to tell you this - if you and other religious lineages are willing to join my Fengmen lineage, you can keep the original root seed of Xinhuo, and return to the Fengmen lineage in the future, and obey the orders!

If you don’t want to join the Fengmen Vein - if that fire root seed remains in your respective religious channels, there will inevitably be the worry of being extinguished, then I, the Fengmen Vein, will keep the fire root seeds of your other veins. To be relieved of your responsibilities, you can return to your hometown to farm, or you can go to Chang'an to find a job nearby. It all depends on you!

Everyone, make your choice! "

The Kitchen God cult members who were surrounded by people were in an uproar when they heard this!

What Feng Xiong said about 'preserving' the Fire Root Seed for them was actually taking away the Fire Fire Root Seed that their respective sects had accumulated so far. Without the Fire Fire Root Seed, they couldn't be called Kitchen God's disciples at all, just a disciple of the Kitchen God. Just an ordinary person!

After all, there are many teachings in the world today, especially those who cannot draw fire into the body!

But if they want to retain the fire root, they can only do things under the drive of Fengmen. Feng Xiong has such a brutal and brutal attitude. If they are really driven by it, it is already foreseeable what their fate will be!

The disciples of the Kitchen God who had previously followed their own stove master and worshiped the Suihuo Vein looked at the ferocious appearance of the Fengmen Vein, and then looked at the Suihuo disciples beside them - everyone felt a little chill in their hearts. Their fate was nowhere to be seen. It will be a bit better than those disciples of other meridian who were absorbed into Fengmen meridian.

Suihuo and Fengmen, one in the light and the other in the dark, are determined to devour all the Kitchen God's veins!

Just like what someone said during the chaos of war before - the two lines have just negotiated!

"Are you going to pay the fire root seed, or will you voluntarily join my Fengmenmai sect?

At the end of today, the Kitchen God Sect only has Nan Suihuo and Beifengmen, and there is no third Kitchen God Sect lineage - you have to figure this out! "Feng Xiong looked at the panicked crowd with a smile. The Yinxi disciple 'Kang Wu' and Zhou Xingzuo's eldest disciple 'Xu Lin' who were tied to two mule carts were pushed away by the Fengmen disciples. He pushed off the mule cart and pushed it to Feng Xiong's feet.

Feng Xiong kicked the two of them and turned to look at the crowd. He could no longer remember which branch of the Kitchen God the two men came from, so he only shouted to the crowd: "These two people have no respect for their elders, they have violated the wise, and they have committed a serious crime!

If they collided with the strong man outside, they were already dead, but since they collided with me now, I will still leave a way for them to survive - if the teachings behind them are willing to join my eldest son, 'Qilin', If my second son, Jiaolong, becomes their slave, I won't break their hands and feet, or pull out their tongues! "

In other words, if they don't agree to Feng Xiong's request, both Xu Lin and Kang Wu will have their hands and feet amputated and their tongues pulled out!

They have always hoped to reconcile with Fengmenmai, thinking that Fengmenmai would give young people a way out, so they suppressed Wang Yun, the stove master of Yinxi Vein, and Zhou Xingzuo, the stove master of Huolu Vein, who did not dare to speak out. Now they heard the news. , suddenly my heart felt cold!
