Chapter 44 Retreat

Not long after, Wang Wending summoned Yin Jianzhan, Jiang Mianyi, Sui Yunzhu, Wu Suxin and others back to the Goddess Peak main hall. Qi Huaigu explained the current situation and Wang Wending's thoughts to everyone.

Everyone was silent for a long time, and Sui Yunzhu was the first to say: "Brother Wang's idea is quite good, but my personal opinion is that it would be a pity to engage the enemy anyway to dampen their spirit and then retreat. The Goddess Peak Main Hall that we have been operating for many years will definitely be destroyed."

Shen Zixiao pondered for a long time and said slowly: "Your idea is not bad. If we don't fight and just run away, we will be laughed at by others. It will be difficult to raise our head in the world in the future. However, , Now the Wuji Sect has united with several famous sects such as Shaolin, Hengshan, Tianshi Tao, Dian Cang, Tang Sect, etc., and has heavily suppressed the territory. We have also been poisoned by the spy arranged by Feiluan Society. The previous leader was poisoned, and the new leader has just been established. We have few soldiers and few generals. Although we can still maintain our reputation by fighting alone, Wuji Sect has suffered several losses before and after. We will never give us a chance to fight alone this time. Let’s just say that Nianyi’s swordsmanship is unparalleled in today’s martial arts world. , but let her deal with more than a hundred well-trained fire crow soldiers. If I want to fight hard, it will be difficult for her to escape unscathed."

Wang Wending listened to Shen Zixiao's words, nodded and said: "So, you can't think about the Jianghu's face now. When life and death are at stake, you must not act on impulse. Every brick and tile in the main hall is condensed with everyone's hard work, but at the critical moment , we must not be greedy for these external things. We have kept the members of the congregation, everyone is alive, and there is still a chance to make a comeback. Otherwise, although we have a reputation that will be ruined, it will not be of any benefit to the continued development of Nestorianism in the future. As the backbone of Nestorianism, we , we should think more about the future of Nestorianism instead of acting on impulse. Now that powerful enemies are surrounding us, and seeing that the situation is imminent, we must seek the safest way to keep the fire of Nestorianism and don't let it go out. If there is a fire, there will be hope. Hope. I suggest that even if you want to keep people to attract the enemy's attention, you should keep a few quick-legged ones. Only those above the Pavilion Master of the Seven Star Pavilion can serve. Those below the Xiang Master will retreat with the leader first."

Jiang Yiyi said: "Then let me stay. I am familiar with the terrain of Goddess Peak and can easily escape."

Wu Lidao: "I will accompany Sister Mianyi, and it is best for Sister Wanshu to stay as well."

Dong Wanshu nodded and said: "Okay, I will also stay to lure the enemy."

Qi Huaigu saw that all the pavilion masters wanted to stay behind to lure the enemy, and said: "Then it is decided that I will stay with you and let Brother Wang retreat with the people below the Xiang Master."

Shen Zixiao said: "That's fine. Lao Wang, I want to ask you something. When you lead everyone to retreat, take Xiaomei with you. You must protect her safety."

Wang Wending said: "Don't underestimate me. Since everyone wants to come to the rear, there is no reason for me to leave first."

Qi Huaigu said again: "Don't fight to stay, everyone. The remaining believers can't be left alone. I think Brother Wang will lead them to retreat. You have many tricks, and they also have a backbone. Let's stop them from behind." The enemy will arrive soon."

Wang Wending pondered for a long time and said: "Since the leader insists, then I will obey the order. You must pay attention to safety. Let's meet at Baidi City after we go down the mountain."

Qi Huaigu said: "Then let's arrange it like this."

After the discussion was completed, Qi Huaigu arranged for the remaining personnel and the personnel below Xiangzhu to rush to repair the defensive fortifications before the enemy gathered to attack. Rolling wood, thunder, stones, antlers and caltrops were all prepared.

Yin Jianzhan dug out saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal and other mixed materials from the main hall's warehouse. He asked everyone to put them into more than a dozen bamboo baskets. When Qi Huaigu and everyone saw these things, they were a little puzzled and asked: "What's wrong with this?" What’s the use?”

Yin Jianzhan said: "This is something that Master Changsun sent someone to buy during his lifetime. I heard from him that this thing is amazingly powerful when lit with fire and can hurt people. At that time, I asked him what it would be used for. He told me that if Nestorianism has a big impact in the future, In difficult times, it can be used to cover everyone's evacuation."

Wang Wending slapped his forehead and said: "Since we are using fire to attack, why not buy some firecrackers and put them in to help fuel the fire and blow up the enemy."

Everyone applauded and hurriedly asked Wang Wending to go down the mountain to buy firecrackers.

Everything was ready, and three days had passed. Qi Huaigu ordered Wang Qunding to lead most of the people to retreat from the secret passage in the back mountain. He, Shen Zixiao, Yin Jianzhan, Jiang Yiyi, Dong Wanshu, Wu Li, Sui Yunzhu, Wu Suxin, Li Ruwei and a few others A total of about 40 incense masters with slightly higher martial arts skills stayed at the Goddess Peak to defend against the enemy. On this day, Yin Jianzhan and Jiang Naoyi led ten incense masters to guard the mountain pass. Suddenly, they saw a team from the bottom of the mountain quickly attacking the mountain pass. , looking from a distance, there are three big characters "Hengshan Sect" written on the flag.

Yin Jianzhan saw the banner and said: "I didn't expect that even the Hengshan Sect would participate."

Jiang Yiyi said: "A picture of a dragon has made many ambitious people show their fox tails. The Hengshan sect has a new leader. I heard that the new leader is Teng Zan, whose nickname is the Jade Faced Divine Sword, and the Thirty-Sixth Route Zhurong Sword." Fa is famous all over the world and is also a well-known figure in the world."

Yin Jianzhan said: "I have heard of this person's name, but the Zhu Rong fire hand seal of the Hengshan sect is more famous. I don't know how well this Teng Zan has practiced. The Hengshan sect can participate in the encirclement and suppression of Nestorianism this time, it must be for From the Youlongtu. It took a lot of effort for the Wuji Sect to unite so many gangs to attack our Nestorian religion. Without a common goal, who would be willing to contribute people and help. What is this Youlongtu? thing?"

Jiang Yanyi said: "If Leader Changsun hadn't fought for the Dragon Picture, I don't think he would have died so easily at the hands of Chen Heng. We didn't catch up with the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty back then. I don't know what it was like to make Leader Changsun so attached. , I want to use the treasures of Youlongtu to seize the world and recreate the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty."

Yin Jianzhan said: "I used to often hear Master mention that his ancestors had experienced the Zhenguan period and were important ministers of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty at that time. It was Changsun Wuji who has a portrait in Lingyan Pavilion. Master was with his family when he was a child. When we were together, the master's father often mentioned to him the prosperity of the Kaiyuan era. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the treasury was full of money, the world was surrendered, and the five barbarians paid tribute. It was completely different from the current troubled times. So the master never forgets it. "

Jiang Mianyi listened to Yin Jianzhan's words and saw Teng Zan leading his men approaching, and said: "We will discuss this matter later. Let's fight."

Yin Jianzhan nodded and said: "You can scan the formation for me first, and I'll go and use the Jade-faced Divine Sword to explore the reality."
