That night, several goshawks summoned by Lord Baishan found out what was going on on the mountain, and the demons gathered together again to discuss.
Mr. Baishan has practiced in Taihua Mountain for more than twenty years and knows every plant and tree on the mountain very well, so he immediately explained it to the monsters.
"...Monkey troops are stationed around my cave on the top of the mountain. There are more than 120 monster monkeys, 200 wild boars, 70 wolves, 60 wolves, 70 jackals, and 12 leopards... In addition, the northern slope consists of 40
Yu Heixiong is guarding... There are more than twenty pandas on the path down the mountain from the bamboo forest. Although the number is small, they are all practicing. The leader is the black and white Taoist... On the cliff on the east road is the group of wild geese led by Nan Guizi. They must not be underestimated.
………”
"...Roughly calculated, there are eleven people who have opened spiritual wisdom, and more than two hundred have entered the spiritual practice...I know the names of the people, except Pohou, the real king of the arm, Black and White Taoist, Nanguizi, and Gao
Marshal, Shen Jiangzi..."
All the demons were very moved, and Mr. Huangshan asked curiously: "When did that Pohou become so wealthy? I have long heard that he is a trouble-making character and dislikes his colleagues. How can he hire so many people to help him?"
"
Fairy Toad Palace also had a serious look on her face, thinking seriously.
Zhao Ran was listening to their military discussion and could not interrupt at will, so he pulled Master Wuse out and asked him alone: "Look at the opponent's military strength. It is not much weaker than ours. It also occupies Taihua Mountain. With the convenient location, let's
I'm afraid it's not a wise move to attack from below, right?"
The Master of Five Colors said: "Hey, attack the mountain? Who said we are going to attack the mountain?"
Zhao Ran was puzzled: "Then how to fight? Aren't we trying to recapture Taihua Mountain? How can we recapture it if we don't attack the mountain?"
Master Wuse said: "Little Taoist, taking back Taihua Mountain is not the ultimate goal. This battle is to let the other side know that we are stronger than them and we need them to surrender. So we made an appointment three months ago to fight at the foot of the mountain."
Zhao Ran blinked and asked: "Will they really give up the convenience of the location and go down the mountain to fight you hard? Isn't this a fool? Why do you sound so unreliable to me?"
The Master of Five Colors "clucked" and said: "If they don't come down the mountain, they will have violated their vow to fight. How will they act like monsters in front of the demon cultivators in the world in the future!"
Zhao Ran's face was full of disbelief: "Master, are you kidding? Do you know the art of war? As the saying goes, a soldier never tires of deceit..."
Master Wuse shook his head: "Little Taoist priest, don't judge us demon cultivators by your human ways. We have arranged a decisive battle at the foot of the mountain, but we hide on the mountain and dare not come down. We all know who is strong and who is weak. The so-called fairness and freedom
Demon heart. If you violate your original intention, you will have trouble making progress on the road of spiritual practice in the future. Little Taoist priest, you have to understand that this battle is not about Taihua Mountain, but about reputation. It is for the eyes of fellow Taoists in the province and the demon cultivators in the world."
Well, after being lectured by Five Colors on the principles of being a human being... or being a demon, Zhao Ran could only say that the world of spirit demons is so pure, and their understanding of power is simple and straightforward.
Zhao Ran knew that his mission in the second Taihua Mountain War was over. He "cooperated" with Fairy Toad Palace and successfully completed the nominal problem of gathering demon cultivators. The next war basically had nothing to do with him - Dao Sect
No matter how wide the walking tube is, it’s not easy to end up right?
But in fact, he himself has a somewhat vague understanding of the role of Taoist walking. When encountering such a big dispute within the demon cultivator world, what should Taoist walking do?
If he wanted to take care of it, it seemed that these demon cultivators didn't buy it. When they discussed important matters, they also let him listen, but they didn't ask him to make a decision.
But if it was true that he didn't buy it, it didn't seem to be the case. Rabbit Jubing had informed him in advance - even though it was a small trick, he had also used his orders, and he respected his opinion.
After thinking about it, it seems that the words "deep involvement" are more appropriate to describe his current situation.
So what is the Taoist sect’s attitude towards this large-scale dispute within the demon cultivator world? Control it, or ignore it? If so, to what extent? If not, how to define the tolerance limit?
When he first took the job of Taoist Walking in Long'an Mansion, Elder Yan gave him some general information, and senior brother Wei Zhizhen also gave him a brief lesson. Thinking back carefully, the main task of Taoist Walking is to mediate disputes among disbanded cultivator families, and to arrest people.
The monks who violated the precepts, and the eradication of harmful monsters and beasts, etc., are all related to people. As for the internal affairs of monsters and beasts, there is really no mention.
Zhao Ran now needs new guidelines as a standard for fulfilling his walking responsibilities. At this point, his mind is still very clear. Friendship is friendship, and red lines are red lines. Within the scope of the red lines, he can try his best to help the so-called "Junshan Yi"
"Pulse" is the rabbit's side, but it's beyond the red line. No matter how good the friendship is, you can't mess around.
On the other hand, only if you keep the red line well, can you have a stable foundation and a correct stance, and can you help the rabbit group to the greatest extent. If you don't keep the red line well, you will have to fall into it. What kind of friendship will you talk about? What kind of help? Really?
Is it a joke when the Taoist sect takes charge of the world?
Thinking of this, Zhao Ran had another headache. The Rabbit guys were really going to cause trouble for him! Fortunately, as soon as he woke up, he immediately reported the matter to the teacher with his talisman. He didn't know if it was too late to remedy the situation.
Zhao Ran did not dare to delay, so he once again asked Jiang Tenghe, the teacher of Fu Fu, for remote guidance.
Not long after, Jiang Tenghe Feifu arrived: "Where are you?"
Zhao Ran: "On an unknown hill at the foot of Taihua Mountain." On the one hand, he was a little guilty and did not dare to say that he was among the army of monsters. On the other hand, the hill where he was located was also unknown, which made it easier for him to catch someone unaware.
Jiang Tenghe: "Don't trespass on dangerous terrain. Come quickly to the hill five miles due north of Taihua Mountain. There is a huge rock on the top of the mountain. Our teacher has arrived!"
Zhao Ran thought to himself that this had alarmed the teacher? He said hello to the Toad Palace Fairy and other demons, and hurried over.
The agreed place was easy to find. About five miles to the north of Taihua Mountain, there were three rolling hills. At the top of the eastern hill, there was a huge bare rock, which was very eye-catching.
Zhao Ran was now a Huangguan monk, and his magic power was much different than before. Using the Louguan Taoist technique taught by his senior brother Wei Zhizhen, he ran over the mountains and ridges as if walking on flat ground, and ran in a straight line, arriving in a short time.
Under the boulder, I saw my teacher Jiang Tenghe at a glance, and then I was a little surprised to see my three senior brothers. All the fellow disciples of Ganqing Louguan were dispatched!
"I've met the teacher, I've met the three senior brothers."
After the greetings and greetings were completed, Zhao Ran looked at the second senior brother Yu Zhichuan with some curiosity. Didn't the teacher say that senior brother Yu should not be allowed to go down the mountain to avoid accidents and entanglement with cause and effect?
"It's really not easy to meet my second senior brother here."
Yu Zhichuan smiled happily: "I haven't gone down the mountain for many years, and I have almost forgotten what the world outside the mountain is like. I am also very happy to be able to see my junior brother here. By the way, I have written a lot of interesting things in the past few days for my junior brother to read...
…”
Zhao Ran was startled and quickly stretched out his hand to stop him: "Senior brother, wait a moment..."
Before he finished speaking, it was too late. A bit of white light flew out, circled in the air, and fell down instantly...
