After receiving the Toad Palace Fairy's confirmation, Zhao Ran hurriedly said: "Prepare? What is there to prepare for? Let's agree in advance. It's okay to stand and cheer, but it's not okay to fight in the end. I'm a Taoist practitioner, and you demon cultivators are responsible for your own affairs.
If you deal with it well, if it is not a serious crime of harming living beings, there is no way that I will end up going astray."
Wu Se interjected: "Little Taoist priest, your senior brother is chasing me everywhere to fight, so what do you say?"
Zhao Ran said: "Master, it's just a competition. After the competition, we can improve together. That's the meaning of mutual exchange and discussion. You, Taihua Mountain, fought for the territory during the Second World War. How can it be the same? I will go to the scene to watch the battle and stand up for you.
Cheering, this is already suspected of being biased. If you end up in person, is that ridiculous?"
Fairy Toad Palace stopped Wu Se and then interrupted, saying: "Okay, okay, it's up to you whether the little Taoist priest wants to end up. In short, the troops will be sent to Mount Taihua in three days, just be ready."
Zhao Ran was happy: "Haha, I'm not telling you, just us three melons and two jujubes, we are going to send troops to Mount Taihua? Haha..."
These spirit demons all rolled their eyes at Zhao Ran and were too lazy to talk nonsense to him.
The facts soon hit Zhao Ran hard in the face!
When we set off from Junshan Temple, there were only nine of them: Zhao Ran, Fairy Toad Palace, Baishan Jun, Five Color Master, Qingtian layman, and Lao Donkey's family - Zhao Ran even couldn't bear the two donkey babies "joining the army".
But as soon as they left Xiaojun Mountain, the group began to swell rapidly.
First, two horses and three little mules came galloping from a distance. The old donkey roared and greeted them happily, rubbing their ears and temples together for a while.
Zhao Ran was riding on the back of an old donkey. He was led in a circle for no apparent reason, and then brought back again for no apparent reason. He looked at the Master of Five Colors and asked what happened.
Master Wuse lazily said: "Little Taoist, I told you before, but you just don't believe it. These are his wife and children."
Zhao Ran was shocked, was this going to start a fight? But he saw a group of donkeys and horses gathered together, they were extremely affectionate to each other, and the relationship was very harmonious, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After another walk, Zhao Ran was led diagonally for another two miles. When he came back, there were more than ten horses, donkeys, and mules behind him.
Wuse gave him a brief introduction: "The wives and children of Daqingshan and Jianshan."
When Zhao Ran rode on the back of the old donkey, went out for the third circle and brought back more than 20 mules and horses, Wuse also shook his head this time: "I really don't know where this came from..."
Then came the fourth batch, the fifth batch...
Zhao Ran looked at the old donkey family, who numbered in the hundreds around him, and said silently, brother donkey, brother donkey, from now on I will call you "Donkey Breeder". Don't blame Pindao, this name was coined by me yourself.
…
Thirty miles further south, a large group of badgers and dogs suddenly ran out of a dense forest in front of them. At a glance, they probably numbered no less than two or three hundred!
Zhao Ran was startled, and just when he was about to be on guard, he saw Fairy Toad Palace rushing out on Qingtian, squeezing into the group of badgers, raising her little paws, and pulling up a badger demon with extremely shiny hair and an extremely plump body.
It got off the cow's back and turned back again.
Fairy Toad Palace introduced: "Little Taoist priest, this is the master of this place, Taoist Yashi, with good cultivation."
Taoist Yashi stood up on the back of the cow, bowed to Zhao Ran Yingying, and said with a sweet smile: "I have seen Zhao Xingxing."
The voice is like a ling, really nice! It just doesn’t match the body shape. Zhao Ran couldn’t help but feel a little regretful: “I’ve seen Taoist Yashi before!”
After leaving the boundary of Guyang and continuing westward along the southern border of Jiangyou County, monsters continued to join along the way, including a hundred bison summoned by the Qingtian layman, a group of tigers invited by the Fairy Toad Palace to help out, and a group of blue sheep from the Snowy Mountains of Songfan.
, there are countless falcons flying in the sky...
Especially among the dozen or so tigers, the leader, the green-eyed tiger with a hanging forehead, calls himself Hwang Tiger. He comes from Jianshan, Boryeong Prefecture. With his golden and black fur, he is really majestic and even more worthy of his name than White Tiger.
When they were approaching Mount Taihua, dozens more giant rabbits holding big sticks and standing taller than Zhao Ran came, but they were the subordinates of Fairy Toad Palace.
Seeing the thousands of birds and beasts gathered together, Zhao Ran became more and more restless. He counted roughly and found that there were nine spirit demons who had opened their spiritual wisdom, and no less than two or three hundred demon beasts had entered the cultivation realm, and the rest were counted.
Even though they are not practicing, they are still quite ferocious beasts, with extremely good fighting prowess!
Zhao Ran really didn't expect it to be such a big battle. He invited Fairy Toad Palace to his side and asked in a low voice: "Fairy, I don't know where... where do so many spirit monsters come from? When did our Long'an Mansion get so many more?"
"
Fairy Toad Palace said: "Not just Long'an Mansion? Comrades from all northern Sichuan have gathered here. We are fighting from northern Sichuan to eastern Sichuan! Those guys from eastern Sichuan have always thought too highly of themselves. This time, let them open their eyes and know that our comrades from northern Sichuan are here."
It’s awesome!”
Zhao Ran was sweating: "Fairy, is it really okay for you to make such a noise? Will it cause big trouble?"
Fairy Toad Palace said: "It doesn't matter. I also considered this at the beginning, so I made preparations and informed the Taoist sect in advance, and the Taoist sect also agreed."
Zhao Ran breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he informed the Huayun Pavilion in advance. Well, this is very important. It seemed that the rabbit was very thoughtful, so he asked: "Did the fairy inform the Huayun Pavilion? Who was it? He agreed?"
"
Fairy Toad Palace said: "Yes, didn't I inform you three months in advance? You are a Taoist practitioner of Long'an Mansion. It is enough to inform you. Do you need to inform anyone else? You all join in.
The army is here, what does this mean if it’s not consent?”
Zhao Ran almost spat out a mouthful of old blood: "Fairy, you...this...this...didn't say it would be on such a large scale. I thought it was just us..."
Fairy Toad Palace asked curiously: "I have told you twice, okay?"
Zhao Ran was angry: "Fairy, you can't talk nonsense, what two times? Ah? Have you ever said that?"
Fairy Toad Palace said slowly: "Little Taoist priest, I told you three months ago that this is the second Taihua Mountain War. A big war. Little Taoist priest, have I ever said this? What do you think is a war? I even
I also said that I would invite a few powerful spirit demons to go with me, eh? Did I tell you that? Taoist Yashi and Mr. Huangshan, or the little Taoist priest, you wrote the transfer order in the name of a Taoist monk and sent them here!"
Zhao Ran: "...That's not a transfer order...an invitation, okay..."
Fairy Toad Palace stretched out her little paws again, raised three of her little fingers with great effort, and waved them in front of Zhao Ran: "Three days ago, I told you that we would send troops to Taihua Mountain, so you should prepare as soon as possible.
Have you ever said this before? What is Taihua Mountain? Little Taoist, can you explain it?"
Zhao Ran covered his face, he was really fooled by this rabbit! But you want to say that the rabbit is wrong, it makes no sense at all! The procedures are correct and the procedures are complete - especially the complete procedures, Zhao Ran wants to give himself two
hand!
Suddenly, he remembered the news that Zhou Yumo had given him through Song Yuqiao, and he wished he could give himself another slap: If it was just a group fight between Mao San and two spirit demons, would they need to fly a special talisman to warn?
After a long silence, Zhao Ran said quietly: "The fairy is really... a fox... No wonder he had to drag Pindao here..."
Fairy Toad Palace did not answer his question, and just said: "Speaking of foxes, there is indeed one, but he is not from our side. You will know when you get there."
