Lao Dao Bi Yun Jr. was born in 19 15. His real name is Mao Yi and his road number is Ji Xiu. He is from Shendaokou Village, Weihai. Bi Yun's parents died when he was a child. At the age of seven, he was sold to Qikuang Temple and later transferred to Weihai Tianhou Palace as a Taoist. Because he is the youngest in the palace, people call him little Lao Dao.

At that time, the owner of Tianhou Palace was a member of the Boxer in his early years. After the Boxer Rebellion failed, he became a monk and never cared about the world. Kung fu masters are skilled in martial arts, enthusiastic about public welfare, and righteous and upright. After Lao Dao Jr. came to the Tianhou Palace, he was deeply loved by the master, so the master taught him to learn and practice martial arts from an early age, and he developed a good kung fu.

He is also good at sprinting and jumping. Weihai City Wall is the place where he practices. He could walk on the wall and he jumped up in two or three steps. People say he can fly over the eaves and walk over the walls.

Taoist priest in Tianhou Palace

At the beginning of 1938, Xiaolaodao has become the head of Tianhou Palace. Soon after, the Japanese invaders invaded Ahava on a large scale. One morning, a group of Japanese soldiers broke into the Tianhou Palace and insisted that an anti-Japanese soldier had escaped into the pass. However, the devil searched the whole Tianhou Palace without any results, so the angry devil hung him from a cypress tree and tortured him.

The devil's captain cut off a cypress branch and banged it hard on the ancient road. The knife was beaten, but he didn't say a word In fact, Lao Dao did hide an Eighth Route Army traffic policeman in the cellar of Tianhou Palace. In order to save the injured traffic police, he had to resist being beaten.

Finally, the devils failed to catch the Eighth Route Army. Lao Dao Jr. disguised the wounded soldier of the Eighth Route Army as a Taoist and helped him escape from the city. After seeing off the Eighth Route Army, Lao Dao Jr. began to seek revenge and let the devils blood out. He chopped a kitchen knife into a sharp dagger and hid it in his sleeve, ready to kill the enemy.

One night, in Dashipo, south of Weihai (near the current Maritime College), Lao Dao Jr. followed two Japanese soldiers who came out to look for a flower girl. When the devil came to a sparsely populated place, Lao Dao Jr. rushed forward, knocked over a Japanese soldier with one punch and broke the devil's ribs. When the devil fell to the ground, he quickly pulled out his dagger and stabbed another devil.

After killing two devils, he cut the devil's cover in two (he is good at martial arts and doesn't need a gun), then cut off the devil's head and threw it on the wasteland outside the city gate. After nightfall, wolves and dogs took the devil's head away. When the Japanese went to look for the devil's body, they were afraid to go into the wolf's den to look for it.

After getting rid of the two Japanese soldiers, George W. Lao Dao came to a Japanese stronghold near the gate of Ahava. The devil in this cottage is the one who hit him at the beginning. Lao Dao Jr. strolled around the stronghold every day, observing the movement of the Japanese, and finally let him seize the opportunity.

One afternoon, Japanese soldier Wu Chang took two Japanese soldiers outside the city to inspect a stronghold of the puppet troops. At that time, the Japanese thought that Ahava was their world, so they wanted to wait until they came back before going to the nearby village to do harm. Lao Dao Jr. got the news that the devils fled, ambushed them on their way, and trapped and killed them one by one.

When solving the demon king Wu Chang, the cunning demon king sensed the danger and prepared to draw his sword and rush over. Xiao Lao knife quickly rushed to the devil's side, kicked him down, and punched him in the chest. The devil was punched and spit out blood. But the devils struggled desperately and the two sides began to struggle. Finally, Lao Dao Jr. put the devil under his body, reached out and grabbed the devil's throat, tore it open, and solved the devil's head.

According to the Records of Weihai City, Xiao left Tianhou Palace, first joined Zheng Weiping's Department of the National Army, and then joined Weihai Brigade of the Eighth Route Army with the help of the Eighth Route Army traffic police he had saved, and was incorporated into the special team.
