The sixth volume of the dance of demons 1299 Dashuo Dynasty
At this moment, a middle-aged man in green robes flew out of the city below. He was also a monk in the Celestial Realm. He bowed to Liu Ming and said:
"You must be the new head of the Qing family, Taoist friend Liu Ming. Thank you for your hard work coming all the way!"
"Dare I ask who your friend is?" Liu Ming paused and asked with a twinkle in his eye.
Qing Fang and the other Qing family monks behind him also stopped.
"Haha, I'm Liu Junyan. By the order of the family leader, I'm here to wait for the family leaders who have been summoned. Fellow Daoist Liu, please come with me. I have prepared a resting place for you." The middle-aged man in green robe said with a slight smile.
, falling towards the city below.
Liu Ming's eyes moved, and he immediately followed with everyone in the Qing family.
There are many buildings in Yourong City, and it seems that they were all built recently. It is not a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
The middle-aged man in Qingpao took Liu Ming and others to an area in the eastern part of the city. There were more than a dozen gray attics here. Although they didn't look like much, they were enough to accommodate more than a hundred people from the Qing family.
"Everyone of the Qing family, please rest here. The conditions are a bit rough, so please don't take it off." The middle-aged man in green robe said apologetically.
"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be so polite. I'm not here just for enjoyment. I wonder how the battle is going on the front line right now?" Liu Ming chuckled lightly and then asked with a focused gaze.
When he entered the city just now, he glanced in the direction of the enemy camp in the distance. The camp opposite was shrouded in a black air, and someone had obviously used a secret technique to cover it up.
"Currently there are only small-scale contacts, and the other side does not seem to be preparing for a large-scale attack. We are quite well-prepared, and we are currently in peace." The middle-aged man in green robes saw Liu Ming asking about the war, and his expression became solemn.
Liu Ming heard this and nodded slowly.
"So far today, many heads of aristocratic families have rushed over. They are all discussing matters in the hall at the moment. If Head Liu is free, why not go over and meet everyone." The middle-aged man in green robe said again.
"Very good." Liu Mingke nodded. Then he ordered Qing Fang to arrange for the rest of the people to settle down and rest here, and he walked side by side with the middle-aged man in green robe towards a main hall in the center of the city.
"I wonder which aristocratic families have arrived in the city now?" Liu Ming asked seemingly casually while walking.
"At present, all the large-scale aristocratic families who have been transferred from Zangzhou have basically arrived. From other prefectures and counties, only Yongzhou and several families from Yuzhou arrived yesterday." said the middle-aged man in Qingpao.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed and he nodded.
According to the words of the middle-aged man in green robe, the monks gathered in Yourong City at this moment are no more than the strength of one state. Even if they include the troops sent by the Liu family, their strength is still inferior to that of the rebels from the three states opposite.
However, at this moment, families from several nearby states and counties are rushing to Yourong City continuously, and in the face of such a large rebellion, it is impossible for the Central Dynasty to sit idly by and ignore it. As long as it survives for a period of time, I believe the situation can be greatly improved.
.
Liu Ming thought this and felt a little more relaxed.
"I wonder which senior of the Liu family is in charge of Yourong City at this moment?" He suddenly remembered something and turned to ask the middle-aged man in green robe.
"After the rebellion in the three states of Li, Chi and Kuo, the Demon King was very angry. In order to put down the rebellion as soon as possible, I, the head of the Liu family, personally took charge of Yourong City. In addition, there was also an ancestor of my own clan, Tongxuan, who was also in the city. Later, Fellow Daoist Liu
Then we can see it." The middle-aged man in green robe said with a smile.
"It's great that the Liu family leader is personally in charge. With your family leader's ability, the rebellion will be put down soon." Liu Ming's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he said with a laugh.
The two chatted and soon arrived outside the main hall in the center of the city. They walked into the main hall and turned a few intersections. The two came to a bright hall.
The hall is very wide, with dozens of large chairs placed in the hall. They are arranged on both sides of the hall. At this moment, twenty or thirty people are already sitting in these chairs.
The people present were all heads of major aristocratic families, almost all monks in the middle and late stages of the Celestial Realm. At this moment, there were groups of three or five in the hall, each gathering together and talking in low voices.
At the end of the hall is a slightly higher seat, which is obviously the main seat, but there is no one on the seat at the moment.
As soon as Liu Ming and the middle-aged man in Qingpao stepped into the hall, dozens of eyes looked over at them.
"Hey, isn't this Fellow Daoist Liu? Fellow Daoist finally arrived." A rough-looking man stood up and strode over.
"Fellow Daoist Lei." Liu Ming's eyes flashed, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded to the rugged man.
This big man is Lei Ge, the head of the Lei family, a famous family in Zangzhou.
The Lei family and the Qing family often communicated with each other. Over the past hundred years, Liu Ming had met this person several times, and their friendship was pretty good.
"Come on, Fellow Daoist Liu, you usually stay behind closed doors, so today I just take this opportunity to introduce you to some friends." The rough man laughed, grabbed Liu Ming without any explanation, and walked inside.
Liu Ming had a wry smile on his face, as if he couldn't stand this man's enthusiastic and unrestrained personality. He nodded apologetically to the middle-aged man in green robe and followed him.
When Liu Junyan saw this scene, a ray of light flashed in his eyes, but he walked towards a circle of people with a smile on his face.
He followed Rego to a small circle inside, found a seat and sat down, looking at the people around him.
In addition to him and Rego, there are three other people in the small circle here.
A young woman with green robe and green hair, who looked to be in her thirties, was quite beautiful, but had an indifferent expression. When she saw Liu Ming coming, she just glanced at her without any intention of saying hello, giving people a feeling of being away from her.
a feeling of.
The other was a white-haired old man with an abnormal blush on his cheeks, as if he was recovering from a serious illness.
The white-haired old man looked kind and nodded slightly to Liu Ming.
There was also a *-year-old girl with red lips and white teeth. She was wearing a loose blood-red dress and looked a bit nondescript.
"Haha, guys, let me introduce you. This is Liu Ming, fellow Taoist Liu, the famous head of the Qing family in the Tuozang Mountains whom I mentioned to you before." Lei Ge introduced Liu Ming to the others.
people.
When the three people heard this, their expressions changed slightly.
In recent years, the Qing family has indeed become famous in Zangzhou. Now in terms of power, it can be regarded as one of the top big families in Zangzhou. The new head of the family, Liu Ming, has always been mysterious and basically does not appear in the eyes of outsiders.
, which is even more interesting to talk about.
"It turns out that your Excellency is Liu Ming, Fellow Daoist Liu, nice to meet you." The white-haired old man cupped his fists and saluted, and said.
The green-haired young woman and the girl in red robe couldn't help but look at Liu Ming a few more times.
"These three are also the heads of quite prestigious families in Zangzhou, namely Fairy Ao, Fellow Daoist Ge and Fellow Daoist Lan." Lei Ge introduced the green-haired young woman, the white-haired old man and the red-robed girl respectively.
"It turns out to be the Head of the Ao Family, the Head of the Ge Family, and the Head of the Lan Family. Nice to meet you!"
Liu Ming clasped his fists slightly. Although Lei Ge did not say the names of these people, he knew their surnames and he could also determine the origins of these people.
The Ao family, the Ge family, and the Lan family are all well-known families in Zangzhou. Although they are not as powerful as the Qing family and the Lei family, their power is not small.
Especially the Lan family where the red-robed girl belongs is famous for its alchemy. If he guessed correctly, the red-robed girl is Lan Yinggu, a famous alchemy master in Zangzhou. Liu Ming has heard rumors about her. , it is said that it was due to accidentally ingesting an ancient elixir that her body mutated and turned into the appearance of a childish girl.
After announcing each other's names, the atmosphere among the few gradually became harmonious.
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Lei, as you said before, after gathering five people, we will start discussing the alliance. Let's start now." The green-haired young woman said coldly.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed upon hearing this, with a look of surprise on his face.
"Haha, Fairy Ao, there is no need to be anxious. Fellow Daoist Liu has just arrived here, and Lei needs to explain the situation to him." Lei Ge chuckled. He waved his hand gently, and a purple light emitted from his hand, turning into a purple light curtain. , shrouded several people in it.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, what's going on is this. Although you and I are both astronomically trained in this war, the war is dangerous and the good or bad is uncertain. No one can be sure what will happen. So Lei wants to talk to several fellow Taoists here. To form an alliance during war, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Liu would be interested in joining?" Lei Ge looked at Liu Ming and asked.
When Liu Ming heard this, a thoughtful look flashed across his face, but he did not answer immediately.
"By the way, many of the aristocratic families present have established small circles. I believe Fellow Daoist Liu understands the meaning." Seeing that Liu Ming didn't speak, Lei Ge added another sentence.
Liu Ming pondered for a moment before speaking:
"Since it was invited by Fellow Daoist Lei, Liu is naturally willing to join. However, Liu came later than others. I wonder what the situation is like in Yourong City? To be honest, although Liu received the transfer order from the Central Dynasty and the Liu family, he is not interested in joining. I don’t know anything about the specific situation.”
"You don't need to say anything about this, Fellow Daoist Liu, I will naturally share the collected information with you." Rego said immediately.
After hearing this, the green-haired young woman and others also showed focused looks on their faces.
"According to Lei's information, the monks from Li, Chi, and Kuo suddenly decided to rebel against the Central Dynasty for some reason. All the aristocratic families in the three states have now united together and called themselves the Dashuo Dynasty." Lei Ge slowly said said.
The three green-haired young women were shocked when they heard this.
"Dashuo..." Motian's voice sounded in Liu Ming's heart, and his tone seemed a bit mocking.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed slightly, but he did not ask Mo Tian.
"It has already proclaimed itself a dynasty. It seems that the monks in the Three States are really going to completely rebel against the Central Dynasty." The girl in red robe said with a deep tone on her face.
"No one knows what exactly happened in the Three States Land, but the Three States Land has become monolithic. Since the beginning of the rebellion, my Lei family has tried to send people to infiltrate many times because of its proximity to Chizhou, but all failed. We also lost a lot of people." Rego sighed and said.
"Fellow Daoist Lei, do you know how many monks have gathered in the Dashuo Dynasty now? Have they all arrived at the stronghold outside Yourong City?" Liu Ming asked with a twinkle in his eye. (To be continued)
