Chapter 24: Laozi's Transformation Into a Barbarian

"Kill!"

A group of bandits suddenly rushed out of the jungle on both sides of the road.

Accompanied by a rain of arrows, three of the eight knights died on the spot, and arrows shot at the carriage, and some arrows even penetrated the carriage and brushed Ai Xiru's cheek, scaring him half to death.

"Mr. Ai, don't go out!"

Chen Guang drew his sword and put on his armor, jumped out of the carriage, came to the remaining knights, and fought with the bandits around!

The number of the opponent was three times theirs, and even with armor, they were no match.

"Who is your leader? I have money, all the money is for you, just let us go!" Ai Xiru leaned out and shouted.

As soon as this was said, Chen Guang sighed inwardly.

"Stupid, if I kill you, won't all the money be mine?"

A man with a curly beard among the bandits said loudly.

"May I ask who you are? I am the incense master of Longmen. Can you spare me? I will reward you handsomely one day!"

Chen Guang saw that there were too many people on the other side. If he continued to resist, he would be doomed, so he also gave in.

"Who cares if you are the incense master or the stinky master, haha."

The man held a ring-eyed broadsword, and his eyes were red.

The people around him were the same.

Chen Guang was shocked.

"Brothers, defend this place, otherwise today will be our death!"

The remaining six people retreated and surrounded the carriage. Dozens of thieves were approaching like wolves and tigers.

Even in danger, they did not give up their duties.

Ai Xiru held the cross in his hand and prayed in his heart.

This is the land of heroes. May God bless them.

At this moment, Xu Xuan rode his horse past the mountain stronghold.

"What is this?"

At this time, he heard shouts and killings in front of him.

A group of bandits besieged a carriage. Seeing that the other party could not hold on, Xu Xuan changed into an ox horn bow.

Whoosh!

Five arrows were shot out in a row, hitting the eyebrows of five bandits respectively.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

One person shot a round of arrow rain.

The bandits fell like weeds.

Everyone in the convoy was very excited.

"The reinforcements have arrived! We are saved!"

Everyone cheered.

Chen Guang breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at this kind of attack, it is probably the passing bandit suppression army?

"Great."

Ai Xiru was also thankful.

At this time, Xu Xuan appeared alone.

Everyone realized that the rain of arrows was shot by one person.

"What a high martial arts!" Chen Guang's pupils shrank. The continuous arrows require super strong arm strength and endurance.

But how can one person fight so many people.

"Be careful!!"

· Seeing the bandits besieging him, Chen Guang shouted.

This person is an expert archer, and his close combat ability is naturally not a problem, but human power is limited. Under the opponent's round-robin battle, even a master will die of exhaustion.

"Almighty Lord, please send down your magical power and save the lost lamb!" Ai Xiru was already desperate.

Chen Guang was about to kill over to support.

Boom!

Boom!

A series of fire and explosions sounded, and everyone was stunned when they saw the scene in front of them.

The man raised his hand and shot out a series of fireballs, which exploded in the crowd.

He turned into a green sword again.

Swish!

His figure turned into a residual image, and within ten breaths, there were corpses lying around him.

The opponent's number was indeed large, and they were close to Xu Xuan.

"Die for me!" The leader jumped and slashed with a knife, his eyes red, like a madman.

Xu Xuan jumped ten feet into the air and took out a handful of talisman paper.

Boom!

Another pile of fireballs fell.

The battle was finally over, and the enemy was completely wiped out.

The people in the convoy were still stunned in place, and such a magical scene made them unable to react for a while.

They had never thought of using magic to attack, and they had never seen such a scene in their entire lives.

At this time, Xu Xuan slowly landed and put away his bow and sword.

It was okay to show off magic occasionally. In this world without magic, there was no consensus among all intellectuals that there was no magic.

Even if this group of people ran to the streets to beat gongs and drums to publicize their deeds, no one would believe it.

Besides, he had a certain amount of power to challenge the secular world, and sometimes there was no need to hide. It was others who should hide.

Ai Xiru reacted and hurriedly got off the carriage. He was excited and fanatical, ran to Xu Xuan and knelt down, kissing the ground in front of him.

"Almighty Lord, please accept the worship of your people!"

"Foreigners? What's going on?"

Xu Xuan took a step back, always feeling that this guy was a little abnormal.

"Thank you, immortal, for your help!"

Chen Guang and others who had reacted also came over to bow and kowtow.

"Help him up, who is he?" Xu Xuan asked.

"He is a monk from the West, named Ai Xiru."

Ai Xiru was still kneeling, holding a cross and chanting scriptures.

"Who am I?" Xu Xuan looked at the foreigner and asked.

Ai Xiru calmed down and said devoutly: "You are the reincarnation of Joshua. You are the Messiah, Joshua of Nazareth, the king of Isaiah, and the descendant of David. God said that Joshua will be reborn to save the world at the time of the great judgment."

Xu Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. He knew who the god in the foreigners' mouths was.

Isn't this a case of putting the wrong hat on someone else's head?

This stubborn old man thinks he is a god.

"Look carefully, I am wearing a Taoist robe. I am not a god, but a qigong practitioner. I only have some small magical powers."

After Chen Guang and others persuaded him, Ai Xiru finally stood up.

However, judging from his expression, he probably still insisted on his own opinion.

"If the adults have any instructions, we in the Joshua Club will swear to follow them to the death." Ai Xiru said.

"Just call me Tianshi. Where are you going?" Xu Xuan looked at Chen Guang.

"We are going to visit Lord Sun at Yunlu Palace in Changsha. Pastor Ai is Lord Sun's guest."

"Yunlu Palace?"

"That's right. Lord Sun is fond of metaphysics and has invited monks from three religions to discuss the Dao. This time I am also entrusted to preach here." Ai Xiru said, "If the Lord... Heavenly Master is willing, I can introduce him."

"Okay, it's just on the way."

Xu Xuan thought about it and decided to go with everyone.

Chen Guang gave up his seat and let Xu Xuan take the carriage while he rode a horse.

Everyone set off again.

Xu Xuan and Ai Xiru rode in the same carriage. He asked a lot about Yunlu Temple and found that this guy had a deep understanding of Sinology, which was not comparable to those half-baked foreigners.

And this guy also supported the Chinese ancestor worship.

"You are not exiled here?" Xu Xuan said with a smile.

Ai Xiru hesitated and said, "That's right."

"Haha, you are a heretic. You are qualified to ride in the same car with me."

"Thank you, Lord... Heavenly Master for your approval."

The convoy traveled through mountains and rivers.

Soon they arrived in Changsha. In this important town, Xu Xuan found a different scene.

There are many foreign temples in the countryside, cities, and markets, and many people believe in the Book of Covenant.

In the carriage, Xu Xuan saw this scene and felt that the Chinese Taoism was not safe.

"Heavenly Master, these are your people, and they will go to heaven in the future." Ai Xiru said.

Xu Xuan seemed to think of something and asked, "Do you really think I am a real god in the world?"

"Yes!" Ai Xiru said with certainty. There may have been a little uncertainty at first, but since he saw Xu Xuan conjure food out of thin air, he was absolutely sure.

The Son of God back then also used five loaves and two fish to conjure a lot of food to feed thousands of people.

"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. I am a god, but I am not. God comes from the East, not from the West to the East, but his hometown is originally here."

Ai Xiru couldn't believe it.

"Have you heard of the feathered man?" Xu Xuan said seriously, but in his heart he was thinking, in ancient times, Laozi converted to Buddhism, and today he will also convert to Buddhism.
