Sure, here is the translation for the passage you provided:
```html
At this mont, a fiery and energetic young Taoist ca running over.
"Master Brother, the ancestral golden statue's model is almost finished, please cast the magic to consecrate it!"
This was a young Taoist with a thin, long face, looking extrely delighted.
But seeing the middle-aged Taoist's gloomy expression, he quickly realized sothing was wrong and couldn't help but ask.
"Master Brother, what happened?"
"Damn it, soone has plotted against us, stealing our feng shui!"
At this mont, the middle-aged Taoist was furious and couldn't help but curse aloud.
"What?"
Not only the young Taoist, but even the few Taoists in front of the temple who were rolling up their sleeves to supervise the work gathered around, each one's face filled with anger.
They had put in a lot of effort to build this Taoist temple.
Whether it was raising funds or acquiring the land deed from the governnt office, they had invested everything they had.
"Master Brother, who damaged our feng shui?"
Another rather mature Taoist couldn't help asking, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.
There was an ominous aura surrounding him, apparently having blood on his hands.
"I don't know either!"
Facing everyone's gaze, the middle-aged Taoist looked frustrated, which was what annoyed him the most.
If he knew who it was, he would have dealt with it long ago.
The surrounding Taoists looked at each other in surprise.
In fact, the six brothers were not from the sa school but were a group that had gathered together.
However, after unexpectedly obtaining a book of Zuo Dao's abnormal techniques, they agreed to beco sworn brothers, co-building a Taoist temple to share prosperity.
The middle-aged Taoist was only a dilettante in feng shui and had no way to fix the leaks; he could only discuss it with his five brothers to see if they could redy it or simply choose another place to build the temple!
...
The next morning at the foot of Yuping Mountain.
Zhang Jian rode on a tall horse, the cyan horse beneath him full of vigor and very stable, followed by five hundred elite soldiers borrowed from the county governnt, each equipped with an Iron Fang Shield and holding a nine-shot crossbow.
They exuded an intimidating aura.
This was like replacing a shotgun with a cannon.
After the Zhang Family suppressed the County Magistrate Yang Qing of Fengxi County, Zhang Kui gradually gained control of the situation.
With no checks in place, the Zhang Family followed suit with other noble families, slowly turning Fengxi County inside and out into a base for expanding their power.
Not only was their official power expanding, but they also secretly ard the guard team.
This was not sothing only the Zhang Family was doing; noble families and clans across the Daqian Dynasty were doing the sa.
This was also the reason Zhang Jian deeply felt that a chaotic era was approaching.
The Daqian Court was gradually losing control over each county, a very dangerous sign.
At this mont, a thin and slender figure was introducing sothing to Zhang Jian.
"Honorable Scholar, from what we know, recently within and outside Fengxi County, only the Taoist priests from Fire Spirit Temple, who appeared from nowhere, are outsiders, matching the characteristic of possessing magic. However, we heard that they haven't deceived anyone since coming to Fengxi County, but rather have treated the poor well, even providing free dical consultations!"
Hearing this, Zhang Jian's expression remained calm, but Zhang Lu, Hu Shan, and others behind him exchanged a glance, Zhang Lu said.
"Young Master, it seems it's them. The ones fitting the characteristics of outsiders who know magic are only these Taoists from the temple!"
Zhang Jian nodded.
Actually, there was a third characteristic.
This group of Taoists had been raising funds before, aning they were short on money.
Much of the money in their hands ca from unknown sources!
Anyone would find this suspicious!
Even without further evidence, having this much was enough to take action.
Just then, Zhang Jian's deanor changed, and the long queue behind him also halted, everyone's gaze suddenly toward the mountains, where countless birds suddenly soared into the sky.
They all flew in one direction.
A large, dark expanse.
"Is there going to be an earthquake?"
Seeing this scene, Zhang Jian's expression changed, but his imnse spiritual chanism hadn't sensed any disturbances in the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Field in the void.
In an instant, his gaze shifted skyward, only to see two giant eagles flying through the air.
At this mont, the World Spirit Consciousness Pearl within him heard two distinct voices.
"The deity has arrived, let us quickly go to greet them!"
"We need to be faster!"
These were two little spirit monsters.
Zhang Jian was familiar with these two little spirit monsters; he had encountered them when suppressing bandits at Phoenix Tail Mountain.
But hearing the words of these two falcons, Zhang Jian's expression was sowhat surprised.
"What kind of being is this deity that even draws so many birds to go and greet them?"
Zhang Jian's gaze wavered, but suddenly he recalled the terrifying phoenix call from Phoenix Nest Mountain.
Is there really a Phoenix in the Shuangfeng Mountain Range?
Zhang Jian's eyes flickered intensely for a mont, observing the unusual phenonon of nurous birds flying to greet—clearly, this was the gathering of birds for the phoenix!
At this mont, the soldiers also gazed in shock at such a spectacle.
"It is so strange, what has happened, what is wrong with these birds, why are they all leaving their nests, flying southward? Have you noticed, they're all flying in the sa direction without exception..."
Wu Jiu, who was leading the way at the mont, was full of astonishnt!
Not just him, many soldiers were sowhat alard.
However, upon seeing Zhang Jian before them, many soldiers imdiately felt they had a pillar of support, having witnessed Zhang Jian, the young master of the Zhang Family, suppressing bandits at Phoenix Tail Mountain with divine techniques, and thus had great confidence in him.
Beside them, Hu Shan saw this scene and nodded secretly, the morale can be utilized.
Yet looking at the sudden change in the mountains, his heart also slightly skipped.
They feared neither re physical battles, but feared that those they faced might not be humans, but sothing else.
At this mont, Zhang Jian recalled the peculiar Treasure Pearl in his hand.
Connecting it with that phoenix call, his expression subtly changed.
He didn't know whether the presence in Phoenix Nest Mountain was rely passing by, or coming for sothing, or simply for the treasure he carried?
This inevitably made Zhang Jian's expression sowhat uneasy.
"Young Master?"
Beside him, Zhang Lu witnessed this scene and couldn't help but direct his gaze over.
Zhang Jian simply waved his hand and said:
"Increase the speed of the march, we must cleanse Fire Spirit Temple on Yuping Mountain before nightfall!"
The group marched quickly and soon arrived at the mountain paths leading to Yuping Mountain. Zhang Jian gestured, signaling Hu Shan and several veteran soldiers to block off each essential path up and down the mountain.
anwhile, Zhang Lu signaled and several strong n imdiately carried over several baskets. The baskets were covered tightly in red silk; upon opening, they revealed nurous dark talismans.
Soul Purification Spell.
Thunder Spell!
Seeing this, Zhang Lu shouted.
"Each person receives three talismans, attach them to arrows and blades, and ensure you listen to orders. When the ti is right, let the arrows fly, do not be early or late, if you fail the mission, you will face severe punishnt!"
Standing tall, his face showed fierceness, the soldiers imdiately composed themselves, ears perked.
Witnessing this, Zhang Jian smiled slightly.
Zhang Lu had been following him since childhood, specially trained by the Zhang Family, and now learning martial arts from Zhang Yi, with proper nurturing, he could beco a major general under him.
Then Zhang Jian slowly advanced, his magical power clear as a bell, his voice echoed through the mountains: "Hear this, wild Daoists of Fire Spirit Temple, we are the bandit suppression squad of Fengxi County Governnt, surrender imdiately for your cris, or face our wrath, heed this warning!"
Inside Fire Spirit Temple, several Daoists were disheartenedly discussing raising funds anew.
At this mont, they heard the voice from below the mountain.
Instantly, they heard the voice coming from below.
"Fengxi County Governnt, when did we provoke the governnt officials?"
Upon hearing, the Daoists looked surprised and their expressions slightly anxious.
Officials are notoriously difficult to deal with, and the man shouting was robust in voice, clearly not one to be trifled with.
The leading middle-aged Daoist Deng Qian's face turned cold, angrily saying.
"Damn it, the Daoist is frustrated, yet these court dogs dare bark before my Fire Spirit Dao Treasure Land. Let the Daoist deal with these dogs first, then we'll talk of other matters!"
His face was sombre, his robe teed with countless chilling energies rotating, he even stuck several talismans directly onto himself, faintly glowing beneath his skin like divine possession.
In an instant, he turned into a chilling force, charging impulsively down the mountain.
However, just as he reached the base of the mountain, his expression changed, greeted by a sky full of arrows.
The arrows glead with a dark light, clearly infused with so special Breaking Technique.
The words on the tip of his tongue suddenly changed into a loud shout.
"Friends, let's talk calmly!"
