Nezha and Huang Tianhua each used their escape skills, and they arrived in a moment.
Qishan Mountain is not big, and the main line is only a few hundred miles in radius. Nezha and Nezha were both flying into the sky and escaping from the earth. After shouting for a while, they found Liu Qiao and Yang Jian in a valley.
"Nezha, Tianhua, you are here like this, is there something wrong?" Yang Jian asked doubtfully.
"Damn it, you guys ran too fast. We looked for him before and didn't see anyone, so we turned back to Xiqi.
As soon as he returned, Uncle Jiang sent an order to summon everyone and asked me and I to come look for you again..." Huang Tianhua explained.
Nezha also said: "Have you finished the competition? The old thief Wen Zhong has invited the evil demon Jie Jiao again and is writing a challenge!"
Yang Jian frowned and said, "Who else did Grand Master Wen invite?"
"It seems to be Master Zhaoxian of Luofu Cave, I'm not sure about the details..." Huang Tianhua thought.
"Master Zhao Xian?"
Seeing that Liu Qiao looked a little surprised, the three of them turned to look at him and asked in confusion: "Why, Brother Liu knows him?"
"Haha, that's not the case, it's just that I vaguely heard of his reputation when I traveled around three mountains and five mountains in the past..." Liu Qiao laughed and said vaguely.
Master Zhao of Luofu Cave, if nothing else happens, he is talking about Zhao Gongming.
This person appeared in TV series and ancient novels I watched in my previous life, and he seemed to be very powerful.
But Liu Qiao can't remember exactly where he appeared and what methods he used.
The only thing that I remember deeply is that Master Zhao Xian had a few beads in his hand and he was very powerful at hitting people.
After recalling for a moment, he asked: "Have you seen what he looks like? Is he a Taoist who rides a black tiger and holds a steel whip?"
"I vaguely saw him entering Chengtang Camp, but I didn't see him using any weapons, but Black Tiger did..." Huang Tianhua thought for a while and replied.
Then he said with a smile: "If it's Senior Brother Liu's old friend, it's easy to say that he can dissuade the swordsman. Even if there is a fight, we will keep our hands and spare his life."
Nezha sneered and said: "Hmph... It's just a woman's kindness. We are fighting hard in the battle. How can we allow you to hold back? Even if Liu Qiao's ancestor is here, he must be killed if he should!"
Huang Tianhua was furious and was about to get angry when Liu Qiao pressed his shoulder and said, "Nezha is right. If we fight hard in battle, either he will die or I will die."
What he said was true, but Liu Qiao always felt that it was hard to hear him. Nezha was always finding ways to curse people.
"Hmph..." Huang Tianhua finally gave Liu Qiao some face, snorted coldly, and turned away.
"Stop gossiping, the war is urgent, go back quickly!" Nezha urged.
The few of them said no more, and immediately set off their escape lights and left for Xiqi.
………
Zhao Gongming led his two apprentices to the imperial camp that day, and entered the Chinese army tent with Grand Master Wen, Tiantianjun and other Taoist friends.
After all the immortals were seated, they heard Zhongdao: "Brother Zhao Dao has come a long way to work hard. When I have a banquet, I will meet Brother Dao first."
"No need!"
Zhao Gongming waved his hand, looked at the remaining four Heavenly Lords and said: "My fellow Taoists, the Ten Jue Formation is extraordinary. Why did you break six Taoist brothers? What are Jiang Shang's methods like?"
"Sigh... Jiang Shang is not something to be afraid of, but the Yuxu Chan Sect in his sect is really hard to stop..."
The four heavenly kings told each other in detail the whole story from coming to Xiqi to now.
When Wen Zhong came to invite Zhao Gongming, he briefly said that if six of the Ten Heavenly Lords were defeated, it would be difficult to stop Xiqi.
But I didn’t say the detailed process of how to break the formation.
When they arrived at Zhaojiang, Dong Tianjun was captured by Zhen Liusun and Liu Qiao respectively, and was hanged in a Lu Peng and humiliated.
Zhao Gongming has been practicing for many years and has a pure Taoist mind. However, when he heard this, his heart became angry and he became angry.
He said angrily: "This is really unreasonable. The three religions are always one family. They humiliated the Second Heavenly Lord Zhao Jiang like this. How can we, the immortal family, have any face?"
"Yes, he was hanged for two days and then ordered to be beheaded by Jiang Shang in order to sacrifice the banner." Wen Zhong lamented and agreed.
Zhao Gongming suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "What a good Jiang Shang, I will give you retribution sooner or later!"
After saying that, he stood up and greeted the two disciples outside the tent, and said to Wen Zhong: "You order the troops immediately, and I will go to meet with the Demon Party to explain the teachings."
The Four Heavenly Lord said: "Brother Taoist, it's a blessing to come from afar. I've been traveling all the way. It's better to rest and recuperate. Let's set up the battle formation tomorrow..."
"The world of mortals is a land of right and wrong. It's hard to stay long. I've cultivated my immortal body. I'm neither thirsty nor hungry. How much rest can I have?"
"Besides, it's still early in the day, so I'm going to have a fight. I'll capture two of his disciples and hang them with a beheading flag for a few days!"
After Zhao Gong made it clear, he called his disciples and brought them the cavalry equipment without letting everyone talk about it.
Wen Zhong also had no choice but to call on the generals to organize their troops and horses. Zhao Gongming packed up and was about to leave the camp.
Wen Zhong stopped and said, "Brother Zhao, please wait a moment. Why don't you keep silent and seek a fight? I will inform people first and ask Xiqi to prepare for a head-on fight, so that they can see Brother Zhao's magical power and be convinced even if they lose!"
"
Zhao Gongming was a little speechless, but he was extremely confident in his own methods, so he followed Wen Zhongdao: "Then do as the Taoist friend said, lest the immortals of the Chan Cult say that I am unreasonable and sneak attack on them..."
Wen Zhong quickly wrote a letter of war and sent it to Xiqi with Deng Zhong.
In fact, the people of the Immortal Family, especially Luotian Immortals like Zhao Gongming came to the battle, celebrated the clouds and mist, and the momentum was extraordinary. Naturally, the Chanjiao Immortal Family felt the same.
Jiang Shang walked into Lupeng with his advice, lit a lamp and worshiped: "Teacher, Zhao Gongming has come to the business camp, and he has written a letter to invite all the immortals to fight."
All the immortals had known that an expert was coming, so it was no surprise. Ran Deng chuckled and said, "It's okay, Ziya, you can gather all the disciples and go meet Zhao Gongming first to see what his abilities are."
Jiang Shang led the talisman out of Lupeng, and with Nezha, Huang Tianhua and others first went to Qishan to look for Liu Qiao and Yang Jian.
Especially Yang Jian and Nezha are the main players among the three generations of disciples. Without them, Jiang Shang would not feel at ease.
………
Not long after, Liu Qiao and others returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion under the cover of Duguang. There were three generations of disciples in the mansion, Huang Feihu and other civil and military officers.
When Jiang Shang saw Liu Qiao and the others coming back, he felt relieved, but his expression darkened.
Seeing the gloomy expression on his master's face, Liu Qiao bowed and said, "Disciple is late, please forgive me!"
"Since you are in the army, don't you know the laws of war?"
Jiang Shang said in a deep voice: "Escaping before the battle is a sign of fear of battle, pointing to the future late is a arrogant army, leaving camp without reporting is a deserter..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Disciple realizes his mistake and is willing to accept the punishment!" Liu Qiao said softly.
Generally speaking, even if Jiang Shang wants to be punished, it will be done in private. If he says it in front of many people, it will really be just a show.
Therefore, Liu Qiao did not panic at all, and Yang Jian quickly admitted his mistake and said: "Disciple is also willing to be punished!"
"Hmph... We have to hire people right now. I'll mark them down for you first, and then we'll sort them out later."
After Jiang Shang finished speaking, all the civil and military officials on the side praised him: "The Prime Minister's words are very kind!"
"Yes... Prime Minister understands everything clearly and rewards and punish justly. I admire you..." Huang Feihu, Nangong Shi and other military attachés all praised him.
Jiang Shang smiled brightly and waved his hand, signaling Liu Qiao and others to return to their respective trains.
Immediately he said seriously: "Then I heard that Grand Master also invited Zhao Gongming from Luofu. Teacher Randeng ordered me to hold the military talisman to fight against Gongming!"
"I am willing to listen to the Prime Minister's arrangements!" All civil and military officials said they would obey the Prime Minister's arrangements.
"I don't know when we are scheduled to go out?" Liu Qiao asked as he stepped out of the formation.
Jiang Shang nodded and said: "Tomorrow at noon, today we will check the sergeants and arrange their weapons and armor. At noon tomorrow, we will arrange half-columns and form five teams to fight."
"Yes..." The generals agreed loudly.
Then he talked about some precautions, and then there was nothing more to say. The meeting was dismissed!
After all, the battle between gods and gods, no matter how many conspiracies and tactics are used, are of no use to the Qi Refiner who is flying to the sky and escaping from the earth.
………
At noon the next day, Xiqi's side had already made preparations, lit lanterns, and all the twelve immortals were watching the battle at Lu Peng.
Wen Zhong stood hundreds of steps outside the city, set up his battle formation, and dispersed the three armies to make a loud noise. The momentum was astonishing.
"Dong dong dong..." The drums sounded loudly, and Zhao Gongming rode a tiger out of the camp gate with a whip, shouting loudly: "Jiang Shang, come see me quickly!"
The sound was like thunder, even drowning out the roaring drums.
The disciples of three generations of Xiqi, both civil and military, were all well prepared. The gongs and drums sounded loudly, and the soldiers and horses lined up and marched out.
Jiang Shangqi has four different faces, with Yang Jian on both sides, two Zha of gold and wood, and Nezha and Huang Tianhua on the left and right.
Liu Qiao was followed by the sword player, holding a fly whisk in his hand and a sword on his back, also riding a yellow tiger.
Looking at the military formation opposite, I saw two apricot-yellow flags, with the flag gate open, and a man sitting on the back of a black tiger with green eyes and fangs.
He is dressed in linen and wears a golden crown. He is neither tall nor thin, has a majestic figure, ape-like arms and wasp waist, slightly dark complexion, three short strands of beard, a princely face, and a fierce look.
He had an ordinary appearance but extraordinary momentum. He carried a bamboo-jointed steel whip and was about 2 feet 56. Liu Qiao knew in his heart that this was the famous Zhao Gongming of Luofu Cave in later generations.
"The person who came here is Jiang Shang, who is leading the army. Do you dare to come out and speak?" Zhao Gongming took the reins, stepped out astride the tiger, and walked to the middle of the two armies.
Seeing that Jiang Shang was about to go out alone again, Liu Qiao whispered to the side: "Master, be careful! This person is extraordinary. You just go to see him and don't lose your momentum. Don't provoke him on the spot and let the disciples deal with him!"
"
Nezha and others saw that Zhao Gongming looked like a black man digging coal and didn't care. Liu Qiao knew that this man was powerful.
When they showed their power, the twelve Immortal Heads also dealt with each one with one move. They were simply not something that they could stop.
So I advise Jiang Shang to talk to him, as long as he doesn't have the same momentum as Xiqi taught by Luo Chan, and don't do what he did before, always "talking to the enemies" or "provocative with words"
If Zhao Gongming is angered and they are far away, even if Liu Qiao and others have the means, they will not be able to rescue him in time.
Jiang Shang nodded, lined up his troops and horses, and carried the magic whip in his hand. He walked out of the camp without looking at each other.
After walking two or three hundred steps out of the military formation, he stopped his horse a few feet in front of Zhao Gongming and said, "I am Jiang Shang. I don't know where my friend is in this famous mountain. What advice can you give me?"
"I am Zhao Gongming of Luofu Cave in Mount Emei. You destroyed the six formations of my Taoist friends. You relied on your meager Taoist skills to destroy my six friends. It is really hateful!"
Hearing this, Jiang Shang sighed: Since fellow Taoist disciples are also Jiejiao, don't you know that by closing the cave door tightly and silently praising Huang Ting, the world will be peaceful and the six friends will be robbed? This is really going against the will of heaven and will be punished by heaven..."
Lao Jiangtou remembered Liu Qiao's instructions. Although he knew how good Zhao Gongming was, he saw the eldest disciple's face was so solemn, so he was still cautious.
He also restrained his speech a lot, and did not dare to let go of random talk, so as not to anger Zhao Gongming.
The plan was good, but Zhao Gongming didn't follow the routine.
Jiang Shangcai said a few words, but Zhao Gongming interrupted him with a loud shout: "Stop gossiping. What you did is really hateful. Fight me first and then talk. If you can fight me, I will let you lecture me again!"
Zhao Gongming is not some kind of god who intercepts the teachings. He always talks the truth and quarrels with Jiang Shang, who is good at quarreling.
Lao Zhao's motto in life is that the truth is only in the fist. I am not your disciple, nor am I an interpreter, so why should I listen to your nonsense?
If you can beat me, it means listening to what you say is right and wrong. If you can't beat me, no matter how much you say, it's useless.
Old Jiangtou is dead today, I, Zhao Gongming, said so.
After saying this, he directly let the tiger come, whipped him and took Jiang Shang's life.
"Master, be careful!" Liu Qiao saw the two of them talking about taking action, so he quickly rushed out to rescue them.
Yang Jian, Nezha, Huang Tianhua and others also left the camp to rob Jiang Shang.
With Uncle Jiang's ability, they all knew that any immortal who knew how to handle Jiang Shang could handle Jiang Shang.
When Zhao Gongming saw the crowd coming towards him, he didn't panic at all, he just chased Jiang Shang away and beat him.
Jiang Shang also used the Divine Whip to fight, but after only blocking one move, he felt a huge force coming from him. His arms were sore and numb, and he could hardly hold the Divine Whip.
Knowing that he was not his opponent, and hearing that all the disciples were coming to rescue him, he stopped resisting, slapped his four faces, rose up in the clouds, and walked back.
"Haha, how can you get rid of my hand!" Zhao Gongming sneered and raised the whip in his hand.
It is different from hearing that Taishi's golden whip can turn hundreds of feet of rainbow light, like a dragon's whip.
Zhao Gongming's whipping technique has little momentum and little brilliance.
It's just a black shadow, as thick as a teacup and two feet five or six feet long, whirling up.
"careful!!"
Jiang Shang only heard a few worried shouts, and then there was a sound of wind behind him, which sent a chill down his spine.
Liu Qiao and others were anxious, but the distance of hundreds of steps seemed too far.
Especially for the immortal fighting method, life or death can be decided in just the blink of an eye.
"Bang...ah..." The steel whip flashed like lightning and landed on Jiang Shang's shoulder. With a "click", the tendons were broken and the internal organs were shattered.
After being beaten, Jiang Shang only had time to scream, and then he fell to the ground with blood spraying from his mouth and nose.
"Hahaha…"
Zhao Gongming laughed endlessly and took back the steel whip, waiting to hit him again. Liu Qiao became furious and was the first to approach, using his sword to attack Gongming.
In a battle with an immortal like Zhao Gongming, tricks such as a whisk are completely ineffective, so as soon as he enters the battle, he must be cautious and use his best swordsmanship to return the favor.
"Zheng..." Gold and iron clashed, the steel whip's divine light burned like electricity, and the sword's light shot out like a cold glow.
Zhao Gongming rode a black tiger, and Liu Qiao rode a yellow tiger. The two tigers crossed each other, both showing their teeth and claws.
One is a true saint who subdues dragons and tigers in ancient caves deep in the mountains, and the other has the divine power of nine bulls to move mountains and seas. Both are brave and extraordinary.
The whip was coming and the sword was coming, not giving an inch, and they fought for many times, regardless of the outcome. Zhao Gongming never expected that Liu Qiao, who looked like an immortal and a scholar, could be so brave.
At this moment, Nezha and Huang Tianhua also caught up, riding the wind and fire wheel, astride the jade unicorn, majestic, with the fire tip grabbing, and the silver hammer coming from the left and right.
When Zhao Gongming pulled the tiger back, he suddenly felt a shiver on his back, and there was a gust of wind behind his head, and he quickly used the steel whip to hold it in place.
However, Yang Jian turned into a gust of wind and struck behind him, cutting off his retreat. He grabbed it with his hand and stabbed Zhao Gongming in the head.
Unknowingly, Zhao Gongming has been gathered in Gaixin by three generations of disciples, and there are weapons all over him.
Liu Qiao mainly attacked the upper third route, while Nezha and Huang Tianhua were on the left and right to distract him, while Yang Jian rushed to attack his retreat.
Jin Zha and Mu Zha also arrived, but instead of surrounding Zhao Gongming, they went to snatch Jiang Shang back first.
"Explanation of teachings will not allow the more to bully the less!"
Seeing that Zhao Gongming was surrounded by Liu Qiao and several others, even though he was extremely brave, he was still trapped among them. Wen Zhong couldn't sit still.
He hurriedly led the four generals Deng, Zhang, Xin and Tao to ride out to meet Zhao Gongming.
Bai, Zhang and other four heavenly kings were not good at martial arts, so they stayed in camp to suppress the formation.
