Wang Qisi understood, grinned and glared: "So, the palace master is ready to fight.
Okay, please go back and let me know and I will take care of it right away."
Jiang Xuesong went to notify several other sects and blocked all four small rivers.
Soon, there was no water in the lower reaches of Bingshan Road. The news reached the ears of Ma Chengwang, the leader of the Taoist sect, Fengtanshan Meiluo Pavilion. He was immediately furious and sent his eldest disciple Jia Yushan down the mountain to inform the various sects to discuss together.
On the morning of the next day, all the sects from Bingshan Road gathered in the lobby of Meiluo Hall. Everyone was talking about it. They all knew that it was about Lan Changdao and they were eager to give it a try.
Ma Chengwang sat upright, with a sullen face, and said solemnly: "Lan Changdao is so cruel that he has blocked all four rivers in our Bingshan Road, and the people downstream have no water to eat."
"The purpose of cultivating Taoism is for the sake of all people in the world. How could you do such a vicious thing?
I am gathering friends from all walks of life today to ask you to come with me to attack Lanchang Road and seek an explanation for the people of Bingshan Road!"
Everyone was excited, Cao Jingguo, the leader of Longlutang, said loudly: "Lanchang Road guards the water source of our Bingshan Road. We know clearly that there is a shortage of water downstream, but we set up a dam to block it. Such evil intentions, how is it different from evil?"
Yu Kangcheng, the head of Fenchen Hall in Zhuning Mountain, shouted: "The Taoist sect of Lanchangdao is rotten from the root, and there are endless internal battles. Let's simply eradicate them completely and restore peace to the people of Lanchangdao!"
Xia Zhengxiang, the master of Yihua Palace in Xiugan Mountain, raised his chest and said angrily: "Guangxuanzi is dead, Lanchangdao has lost so many leaders, and now it is weak, why don't we directly use the water source of the snow mountain, and even the entire Lanchangdao
Tao, take it all as your own?"
Liu Xinjue, the master of the Hebin Pavilion in Zhantong Mountain, said: "Guang Xuanzi and the Taichu Palace are colluding. Now Zhou Lizi is acting out of character. I'm afraid she has also been corrupted by the Taichu Palace. The entire Lanchang Taoist sect has an unhealthy atmosphere, which is directly related to her Mu Xuegong.
This time we will attack her!"
Seeing that everyone was supporting him, Ma Chengwang made the decision: "Okay, then I invite you all to gather at Shimo Mountain tomorrow morning to attack Lan Changdao and deal with Zhou Lizi!"
Everyone raised their arms and shouted in unison: "Crunt Lan Changdao and deal with Zhou Lizi!"
On the morning of the second day, everyone on the Bingshan Road gathered towards Shimo Mountain.
Shimo Mountain is located at the southernmost end of Bingshan Road. Further south, there is Futong Mountain of the Xueshan sect of Lanchang Road. The two sides face each other across a valley.
Zhou Lizi was also alarmed by the movements of the Bingshan Daomen. She called Jiang Xuesong early in the morning and said, "Hurry up and ask Master Xu to come. I'll tell you that the people from Bingshan Dao have taken action!"
Hearing this, Jiang Xuesong nodded solemnly, went out and went straight to Fei Sha Temple.
The disciples guarding the mountain bowed to Jiang Xuesong and took him to Xu Ting's jade house.
Jiang Xuesong said seriously: "Master Xu, the people from Bingshan Road have begun to come south!"
Xu Tingyu frowned and nodded, thought for a while, and said to Jiang Xuesong: "Please tell your teacher when you get back that I will gather the people and be there soon."
Jiang Xuesong returned the same way.
Xu Tingyu sent Dong Zhenghao to inform the various sects and gathered more than fifty sect leaders, nearly two-thirds of them. As the leader of the Taoist sect who had just taken office, this appeal was already quite rare.
It's just that these heads have just taken office and are still childish, so they can only give Zhou Lizi a head.
Near noon, Xu Tingyu led everyone to Nancang Mountain.
Zhou Lizi also gathered the Snow Mountain Sect early, and there are more than twenty sect leaders. Although the number is not large, they are all from the older generation, and their moral conduct is obviously higher than that of the Gobi Sect.
Lin Xiaodong, Zhou Lizi, Jiang Xuesong, disciples of Mu Xuegong, and many leaders of the Snow Mountain Sect came to the mountain field to greet him.
Xu Tingyu saluted and said: "I have seen Xu Tingyu on the flying sand in Jisui Mountain, and I have met Palace Master Zhou."
Zhou Lizi took Xu Tingyu's hand very cordially and said, "Thank you very much for coming with all my colleagues."
Xu Tingyu looked behind her and said: "Although our Gobi sect is of low moral character, we dare not not come to important matters concerning the entire Lanchang Taoist sect."
Zhou Lizi sighed with emotion: "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see the Snow Mountain Sect and the Gobi Sect fighting side by side in this lifetime."
Xu Tingyu chuckled and said, "That's also a compliment from friends from all walks of life in the Gobi sect."
Chang Yushu patted his chest: "Headmaster Xu, Palace Master Zhou, let's work together in the snowy mountains and deserts to ensure that Bingshan Road will not dare to invade for thirty years!"
Zhou Lizi looked at the distant mountains: "That's why I went to war so violently."
Lan Changdao gathered more than seventy leaders and arrived at Futong Mountain in the afternoon.
Standing on the top of the mountain, Lin Xiaodong looked across and could see that huts had been set up on Shimo Mountain, and the people from Bingshan Road had already gathered.
Jiang Xuesong put his hands on the awning and looked over, and after a rough count, he said, "There are hundreds of Taoists anyway, and Bingshan Taoists are all out this time."
Zhou Lizi said: "Let's go and meet our friends in the north."
Everyone wanted to follow me down the mountain. Zhou Lizi waved her hand and said, "No, just go with a few people and follow me down the mountain and argue with them."
Lin Xiaodong, Zhou Lizi, Jiang Xuesong, Xu Tingyu, and Chang Yushu went down the mountain and came to the valley.
On Shimo Mountain, Ma Chengwang was also observing here and said disdainfully: "There are more than seventy people coming to Lan Changdao, and among them there are more than fifty juniors."
Cao Jingguo grinned and said: "Zhou Lizi was too ruthless and killed more than seventy heads of the Snow Mountain Sect. Now those who come are all juniors in the sect and are vulnerable to a blow."
Xia Zhengxiang curled his lips and said: "Only the Snow Mountain Sect has retained its strength, but there are only a few of them. What can they do against our Bingshan Sect?"
Yu Kangcheng discovered Zhou Lizi and others in the valley, pointed at the foot of the mountain and said: "Master of the horse racing hall, they have sent people down the mountain!"
Ma Chengwang rubbed his hands and laughed: "Let's go, a few people come down with me and see what they have to say!"
Cao Jingguo, Xia Zhengxiang, Yu Kangcheng, and Liu Xinjue followed Ma Chengwang down the mountain.
People on both sides confronted each other, and Ma Chengwang asked loudly: "Palace Master Zhou, why did you cut off the Xinghe River, Wufeng River, Pingdai River, and Miaoqian River, leaving no water downstream?"
Zhou Lizi glanced at Shimo Mountain and asked, "Why did the owner of the horse racing hall go to war and gather the entire Taoist sect to come to the foot of my Snow Mountain sect?"
Ma Chengwang grinned fiercely: "The people downstream have no access to water, so of course I have to come and ask."
Zhou Lizi asked again: "Then why did you people from Bingshan Road destroy our dam on Lanchang Road?"
Ma Chengwang crossed his arms and asked: "Then I have to ask you, Lan Changdao, why you need to build the dam!"
Zhou Lizi said coldly: "These four rivers are all within our territory of Lanchang Road. Whether we build the dam or not, it is your turn to take care of it?"
Ma Chengwang's face gradually became fierce, he glared and said with a sinister smile: "This move has caused tens of millions of people in Bingshan Road to be unable to eat water. Of course I have to take care of this matter!"
Zhou Lizi sneered: "Lanchang Road is empty. You, Bingshan Road, want to seize the opportunity to seize the water source. I just give you a reason."
Having made everything clear, Ma Chengwang smiled: "You want to start a war with me?"
