However, the conflict between Bingshan Road and Lan Changdao has just begun.
Bingshan Road is located in the northwest of Dali Kingdom, with a dry and cold climate and year-round water shortage, which has become a bottleneck restricting the development of Daomen.
There are two large rivers and several small rivers in Bingshan Road. The large river originates from the Yachuan Road Snow Mountain in the west, and several small rivers originate from the Lanchang Road Snow Mountain Glacier.
Lan Changdao holds the water source of Bingshan Road, so the Xueshan Sect headed by Zhou Lizi can gain a firm foothold.
But now the situation has changed. The civil war in Lanchang Road has resulted in the death and injury of more than 70 leaders, and the strength is not as good as before.
Bingshan Road wanted to take the opportunity to invade Lanchang Road Snow Mountain and control the water source in its own hands.
On the northern edge of Lanchangdao Snow Mountain, there is Jixia Mountain. The mountain is not high, and the snow capped mountain is covered with snow. The peak is covered with snow all year round. When the spring warms up, the glaciers melt and flow to Bingshan Road, which is the Xinghe River.
On Jixia Mountain, there is a kind of medicinal material that can be used for elixirs, named Yunmuxiang. It has the medicinal effect of benefiting qi and relieving pain. In the alchemy method, it is a carrier of medicinal power.
There is also Puduan Mountain next to Jixia Mountain. There is a Xueshan sect on the mountain called Huaican Pavilion, and its leader Wang Qisi.
Huaican Pavilion has been cultivating agarwood on Jixia Mountain all year round, which requires a lot of irrigation, so a dam is set up to intercept it.
This causes the Xinghe River to have water all year round, only in summer and dry in the remaining three seasons.
Daomen on both sides of the Xinghe River watched helplessly as Huaican Pavilion used water for irrigation but had no choice but to do anything. After all, they were on the territory of Lanchang Dao.
Nowadays, there is civil strife in Lanchang Dao, and the Gobi sect has suffered heavy losses. Although the Xueshan sect has been preserved, it is not the main body of the Lanchang Dao sect.
The sects in the lower reaches of the Xinghe River began to take action. That night, a ray of light fell on Jixia Mountain, and three Taoists walked out.
These three people are disciples of Bingshan Daolong Jieshan Longlu Hall, senior brother Liang Mingxu, second junior brother Fang Yuanzhou, and third junior brother Han Hongda.
Longlutang was a sect in the lower reaches of Xinghe River. Every day he saw Huaicange squandering water on the mountain and became jealous.
Jixia Mountain is lush and lush, with flat terraces and planted with fragrant cloud trees. Shrubs half as tall as a man are airtight and the wind makes a whistling sound.
Liang Mingxu trampled one of them with his foot and said with gritted teeth: "The people in Huaican Pavilion are so wasteful! They have planted such a bunch of useless herbs in the water on the mountain!"
Fang Yuanzhou snorted coldly: "They have taken up all the water of the Xinghe River upstream, and built dams. The downstream is short of water all year round, and it is difficult for the people to drink water, but they are squandering it here!"
Of course Fang Yuanzhou is exaggerating. This is the way of heaven, so there is no reason why there is no food.
Han Hongda rubbed his hands and said, "We are going to blow up the dam right now. The water in Xinghe River belongs to our Bingshan Road!"
The three of them looked at each other and laughed. After flying to the mountainside, they saw a wooden dam blocking the Xinghe River into a lake halfway up the mountain.
Liang Mingxu pointed at the lake and said angrily: "Okay, those people from Huaican Pavilion blocked the river and stored so much water. This is obviously intentional!"
Fang Yuanzhou said coldly and fiercely: "We can't get water downstream, and we can't use up the water upstream. It's really abominable!"
Han Hongda took out the Broken Star Bracelet, a silver bracelet inlaid with three pieces of meteorite, and asked the two senior brothers with a smile: "How about we compare?"
The two senior brothers also became interested. Liang Mingxu took out the Earth Gathering Cauldron, a square bronze cauldron as big as a fist, with some loess in it.
Fang Yuanzhou opened his Taoist robe, and inside was a row of seven scissors, named Seven Star Scissors.
Liang Mingxu said: "Whoever loses will pay for the drinks when he goes back!"
The three brothers all took action together. Liang Mingxu waved his hand and with a click, the Earth-Gathering Cauldron hit the dam, creating a gap as big as a room, and the river gushed out.
Fang Yuanzhou stretched out his right thumb, index finger and middle finger and shook it gently. The seven scissors in the Taoist robe flew out one after another and stuck on the wooden dam. He pulled his hand back and with a crash, a large piece collapsed.
Han Hongda smiled, and took out the Broken Star Bracelet, which rose in the air and fired three rays of red, yellow, and green light towards a wooden dam, faintly revealing the ancient atmosphere of the prehistoric starry sky. The purlin wood, which was thicker than a human, was crushed in an instant.
.
Three gaps were opened in the dam. Xinghe is not a big river at all, and the water was quickly drained.
Fang Yuanzhou said to Han Hongda: "Junior brother's Broken Star Bracelet is even better."
Liang Mingxu waved his hand: "What a disaster, as a senior brother, I lost to my junior brother again."
Han Hongda smiled: "Senior brother only used the earth-gathering cauldron to smash it, and he hasn't cast a spell yet. If he wants to cast a spell, I'm afraid there will be an avalanche on Jixia Mountain."
The three of them complimented each other and fled down the mountain.
The next morning, Zhang Zhizhi, the first disciple of Huaican Pavilion, Guo Kaige, the second disciple, and Huang Ankang, the third junior disciple, came to Jixia Mountain for inspection and found that the ground was in a mess, the wooden dam had been blown open, and the lake water had flowed away.
Zhang Zhizhi stood on the dam and yelled: "Which bastard did this?"
Guo Kaige pointed at the foot of the mountain: "Elder brother! It must be the bastard from Bingshan Road who did it!"
Huang Ankang grinned and clenched his fists: "These villains! How dare you come here during the day!"
Guo Kaige asked Zhang Zhizhi: "Elder brother, what should we do now?"
Zhang Zhizhi gritted his teeth and said with a cold face: "Go back and find the leader!"
The three of them glared at Shanxia angrily and returned to Huaican Pavilion.
The leader, Wang Qisi, was sitting in the room practicing kung fu when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. Zhang Zhizhi shouted outside the door: "Teacher, I don't know who demolished the dam on the mountain!"
Wang Qisi suddenly jumped out of bed, stretched his neck, and said in a low tone: "What?"
Zhang Zhizhi opened the door and came in, saying: "I don't know who made three holes in the dam on the mountain."
Guo Kaige pinched his waist and glared angrily: "It must be the thieves from Bingshan Road! They don't dare to come during the day and come to cause damage at night!"
Wang Qisi frowned, nodded, and said coldly: "I'll go take a look!"
Several people went back to Jixia Mountain. Wang Qisi came up and took a look. The wooden dam had been blown to pieces, the ground was in a mess, and the lake had long been drained of water.
Wang Qisi gritted his teeth and said to Zhang Zhizhi: "Assign people to guard here and repair the wooden dam as soon as possible. From now on, not even a drop of urine will be allowed to flow to his Bingshan Road!"
Zhang Zhizhi took the order, invited people to repair the dam, and arranged for people to guard it at night.
On the Bingshan Road side, the Xinghe River rarely opened its gates and released water in early spring, and there was cheers in the lower reaches.
But the dam on Jixia Mountain was quickly repaired, and the water in the Xinghe River dried up quickly.
Liang Mingxu couldn't sit still anymore. That night, he called Fang Yuanzhou and Han Hongda to his room and said, "Junior brother, this Xinghe River is going to run out of water again."
Fang Yuanzhou gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid it wasn't the thieves from Huaican Pavilion who repaired the dam again."
Han Hongda said with a cruel smile: "Every time he repairs it, we will blow it up. Let's see who can repair it faster or we can blow it up faster!"
Liang Mingxu laughed loudly: "That's what I meant, let's go to Jixia Mountain again tonight!"
The three of them hit it off immediately, and quietly left the mountain gate in the middle of the night and fled to Jixia Mountain.
When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Liang Mingxu looked up the mountain and saw brightly lit lights halfway up the mountain, and many people patrolling.
