Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 114 The Black Bear King Also Falls into the Trap

Everyone thought that after killing the White Wolf King, the Black Bear King would come and kill them soon.

After waiting for a few days, the formation was ready, but the sea was calm every day and the moon was bright every night. The craftsmen worked peacefully during the day, and there were only the chirping of insects and the sound of wind at night. Except for the occasional roar of tigers and wolves in the deep mountains, there was no trace of evil spirit in the front mountain.

Because Gu Zhao and others almost wiped out all the bandits around Cuiluo Mountain, even the wild rabbits in the mountains seemed to become lively.

"The Lingguan Hall has been repaired. The Four Imperial Halls at the back and the God of Wealth Hall and Wenchang Hall on either side are also being repaired. More people means faster progress."

It was a rare occasion for Gu Zhao to come to the construction site to visit his future property. Accompanying him were the embroiderer and Zhuo Qingyan, as well as an old man named He who was holding the construction drawings and explaining them non-stop.

Several large palaces are just small construction sites. A group of strong men are working under the command of an old craftsman, and some women are helping to the best of their ability.

They were all people who had never done any evil in the mountain stronghold and had no place to stay, so they stayed in Daluo Palace and worked as Taoist fire workers. Naturally, they became the main force of construction workers at this time.

"Maybe the news of the temple construction here has spread. In recent days, many merchants and craftsmen have come here to do business and look for workers." He Laozhang introduced, "I asked someone to collect some of them, which can speed up the progress."

Gu Zhao nodded and said, "Let's build the main courtyard first. This is the facade of Daluo Palace."

In the design renderings that Gu Zhao brought, the entire Daluo Palace, combined with the terrain in front of Cuiluo Mountain, occupied a large area and was not all concentrated together.

Behind the easternmost Qinglong Mountain Gate is a mountain path. After walking up 108 steps, you will reach the Lingguan Hall.

Behind the Lingguan Hall is the front yard, further behind it is the Four Emperors Hall, behind the Four Emperors Hall is the middle yard, further behind it is the Jade Emperor Hall, behind the Jade Emperor Hall is the back yard, and further behind it is the Three Pure Ones Hall.

On both sides of the front yard are the God of Wealth Temple and Wenchang Temple, where pilgrims pray for wealth and official positions.

On both sides of the central courtyard are the Medicine King Hall and the Yue Lao Hall, where pilgrims pray for good health and good marriage and offspring.

On both sides of the backyard are the Jiuku Hall and Leizu Hall, where pilgrims pray for relief from all disasters and to ward off all evil spirits.

Each hall is bigger than the last one, and the final Sanqing Hall is the tallest and largest hall in the entire building complex. As the main courtyard of the Daluo Palace, it is also the place where most pilgrims visit, burn incense and pray.

In addition to the main courtyard, there is of course a side courtyard, and there is a mountain road connecting the side courtyard and the main courtyard.

These side courtyards are divided into temples and ancestral halls, which are used to enshrine lower-level gods and ancestors of various families, such as Quanzhen Courtyard, Chunyang Courtyard, Tianshi Courtyard, Shangqing Courtyard, Beidi Courtyard, and Houtu Courtyard.

The side courtyards are like stars, and the main courtyard is like a crescent moon, forming a staggered and orderly whole, constituting the entire architectural complex of Daluo Palace.

And on the periphery of the building complex are the Four Symbols and Twenty-Eight Constellations.

……

Gu Zhao walked around the construction site and was about to go back. At this moment, Li Erping, who was originally a hunter, came up quickly from the foot of the mountain with a group of people.

Seeing Gu Zhao and the others, Li Erping hurriedly greeted them, "Mr. Gu!"

Gu Zhao nodded, "This is..."

"These are craftsmen from several villages and towns in the west, and some men who want to work hard to make money, so I brought them all here." Li Erping replied.

The surrounding mountain strongholds were cleared out, the line from Xiuyue County to Wuhe County was basically safe, and the surrounding villages and towns also prospered. Many people left their homes and came here when they heard that there was work to be done.

Gu Zhao wasn't short of money; the money from selling a few sets of small-leaf red sandalwood furniture in modern times would be enough to build the Daluo Palace here. "Arrange the accommodation, and don't skimp on the food," Gu Zhao suggested.

"Of course!" Li Erping nodded repeatedly. "Master Yansong has made all the arrangements. The priority is to build those...that...staff dormitories. And then there's all the rice, flour, and soybean oil in the warehouse that we can't finish!"

Li Erping pointed at the craftsmen working around him, feeling both distressed and proud. "Look at them! They've all gotten fatter!"

The craftsmen around who heard this all responded with a silly smile, and looked at Gu Zhao with awe and gratitude. They knew that this gentleman would be the future Palace Master of Cuiluo Mountain's Daluo Palace.

Although the two old wizards, no, the old Taoist priests seemed to be of high seniority and profound cultivation, they both respected this young man who seldom appeared in public.

Gu Zhao waved his hand. He was now used to being the center of attention.

Since the construction of Daluo Palace began, he not only ordered a large number of blue bricks, black tiles, paint and hardware from modern times, but also brought a large number of daily necessities and food that would not be exposed.

Therefore, the craftsmen only felt that the magicians in Daluo Palace had great magical powers, but they did not realize that the magicians in Daluo Palace were not from this world.

Because although these things are exaggerated, they do not exceed the cognition of this world. Even Zhuo Qingyan and Xiu Niang just think that this is the secret of Gu Zhao's master, and they feel that their so-called Taoism is unfathomable.

Gu Zhao looked at the craftsmen around him, then at the group of people behind Li Erping, thinking that perhaps Daluo Palace would be completed faster than he expected.

In this way, the battle with the Golden Wind Sect will be put on the agenda.

"Before that, we have to deal with Sanjue Mountain first." Gu Zhao thought, "I didn't expect the Black Bear King to be so cowardly. His son and second brother were left here, but he didn't make any move."

The pit was already dug, but he didn't jump in?
But there is no such thing as a thief who steals for a thousand days. If he doesn't come again, and after the few of them have digested the evil spirit provided by the White Wolf King, they will have no choice but to attack Sanjue Mountain.

But at this moment, the Five Thunder Order in Gu Zhao's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly jumped, and then he expressed great joy.

Gu Zhao understood this feeling. It was the presence of evil spirits around, and it was something that could fill his stomach.

Gu Zhao suddenly raised his head and looked at the people behind Li Erping. He saw that among this group of people there were experienced craftsmen over fifty years old, teenagers who were doing odd jobs and learning a craft, and strong men who were adults and working hard.

Two of them caught Gu Zhao's attention.

One was a dark-skinned man. Although he was strong, he had a silly smile on his face and did not look threatening.

One was a man with a sallow complexion and a thin body, but his exposed arms were muscular, his eyes were clear, and he looked like an honest man.

The two people were very close to each other and obviously knew each other, but they were not too conspicuous in the crowd.

The reason why Gu Zhao noticed them was simply because of the reaction of the Five Thunder Order, which reminded Gu Zhao that the dark-skinned man was a walking experience monster with a huge amount of evil spirit.

As for the sallow man next to him, it's not that he doesn't have a murderous aura, but compared with the big man next to him, his aura is almost negligible. With a big meal next to him, Wu Lei Ling didn't even bother to pay attention to this snack.

Gu Zhao's gaze swept across the two of them, and he passed by them with an expressionless face.

With so much evil energy, there is no doubt who the person is.

"Into the pit."
