Lin Ze looked at the floating Zhuang Zhou and asked with a strange look on his face: "Senior brother, is this the end?"
Zhuang Zhou glanced at Lin Ze: "What does junior brother think it should be like?"
Lin Ze teased: "Junior brother thinks that a strong man like senior brother will have to fight for three days and three nights."
Zhuang Zhou glared at Lin Ze fiercely and was too lazy to respond. He turned to the God of Mount Tai and said, "Why don't you go and have a chat with your old acquaintance?"
The God of Mount Tai showed a complicated look on his face, shook his head slightly and said, "No need, the Tao is different, there is no need to talk anymore."
Zhuang Zhou couldn't deny it and said: "Both are divine ways, why are they different?"
Taishan Divine Lord replied calmly: "The little god is in the Taoist camp, and the Vulcan god has defected to the Buddhist camp. This is one of them."
"Shinto has been in decline for a long time. The minor gods have been looking for a new way out, but the fire god wants to restore the glory of Shinto in the past. The two concepts are very different. This is the second reason."
Zhuang Zhou had a strange look on his face, but he stopped talking.
Lin Ze, who was watching from one side, secretly shook his head and pretended to blame: "Senior brother, the Lord God took the trouble to come here to clear the formation for you and drive away the God of Fire who blocked the road. Then you turned around and asked the Lord God to talk to the God of Fire to reminisce about the past. This was not intentional.
Do you want to embarrass the Lord God?"
"Even if senior brother has good intentions, it depends on when. Junior brother sometimes really doubts how you practice Taoism?"
When Zhuang Zhou heard this, he was stunned, bowed his hands to the God of Mount Tai, and said sincerely: "This is the fault of the poor Taoist Meng Lang. Don't blame the God."
The God of Mount Tai replied calmly: "It doesn't matter."
Lin Ze immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Zhuang Zhou's kind reminder was almost mistaken by the Lord Taishan as a test. If he hadn't reacted in time, it would have almost led to a misunderstanding.
Seeing that the atmosphere was still a bit dull, Lin Ze changed the subject and said: "Now that the Fire God has retreated, how about Senior Brother and the God Lord follow me into the camp for a short break. After the Nanyun Province is recaptured, how about we return to Chang'an?"
Taishan Divine Lord immediately responded: "It all depends on the instructions of fellow Taoist Lin Ze."
Zhuang Zhou also replied: "When it comes to competing for destiny, it is my junior brother who is the main one. Naturally, my senior brother must listen to you."
Just as Lin Ze was about to land, he saw the figure of the Vulcan on the other side quickly running towards the northeast and disappearing.
Lin Ze's expression moved slightly, the intelligence he had received recently flashed through his mind, and he said loudly: "No, Han Xin ambushed Nanzhao's army in Huize County, and Vulcan left in a hurry probably because of this. Senior brother, Shenjun, we have to follow
Go over and take a look.”
After saying that, Lin Ze chased after Vulcan in the direction he left.
Zhuang Zhou and the God of Mount Tai looked at each other and followed him in a hurry without any time to think.
When Lin Ze and his party arrived at Huize County, they happened to see countless sky fires bursting out from the God of Fire, flying all over the sky, and falling towards the Western Qin army that was cleaning the battlefield.
Lin Ze said anxiously: "Stop him."
Zhuang Zhou looked solemn, and quickly formed seals with his hands. A big fish that covered the sky and sun appeared in mid-air, spitting out a wave of blue water, and swept towards the sky fire.
The God of Mount Tai quickly landed on the ground and lightly slapped his palm on the ground. Where the Western Qin army was, mountains and rivers sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain, forming strong fortresses to protect the Western Qin army.
Zhuang Zhou and the God of Mount Tai took action together, quickly attracting the attention of the God of Fire.
I saw the God of Fire furiously saying: "Zhuang Zhou, Tiger King, these people brutally killed the people who believed in this God. This God punished them. Why did you stop them?"
Zhuang Zhou replied in a deep voice: "God of Fire, heaven and man are not allowed to interfere easily in the secular world. Only a poor Taoist has warned you. Have you forgotten it?"
The God of Mount Tai also advised: "God of Fire, the secular world has its own rules. Breaking them rashly will bring unexpected consequences."
When Zhuang Zhou was speaking, the God of Fire was still listening. After Lord Taishan spoke, the God of Fire instantly exploded and scolded: "What bullshit rules? The rule of this world is that the strong are respected."
"Western Qin is stronger than Nanzhao, so the Western Qin army can hunt down Nanzhao soldiers wantonly. But this god is stronger than Western Qin, so what if he kills a few people to vent his anger?"
Lin Ze touched his nose, took a step forward and said: "The God of Fire said "the strong are respected" very well. Just because my senior brother and the Lord God are stronger than you, you are not allowed to kill the soldiers of the Western Qin Dynasty to vent your anger."
The Vulcan was speechless for a moment, then turned angrily and said, "Who are you? How dare you, a mere second-level celestial being, humiliate this celestial god like this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a celestial fire turned into a fire dragon and pointed directly at Lin Ze's face.
Lin Ze slashed out his sword energy to block Skyfire's approach, while quickly retreating to gain space for himself.
After three breaths, Lin Ze felt that he couldn't resist anymore and hid behind Zhuang Zhou.
Zhuang Zhou stretched out two fingers, pinched forward gently, and accurately clamped the fire dragon. Then he twisted his two fingers forward and back, and the fire dragon, like a living creature, disappeared in an instant.
Lin Ze stood behind Zhuang Zhou and replied without changing his face: "It's just a cheap name, it doesn't matter. If the Fire God has any resentment, he can just go to my teacher and senior brothers. What's the point of bullying me?"
Vulcan said angrily: "Then let your teacher and senior brothers come over. I would like to see what kind of person he is?"
Zhuang Zhou couldn't stand it any longer. He coughed lightly and said, "God of Fire, this is my junior fellow apprentice Lin Ze, the lord of the Western Qin Kingdom."
Junior Brother Zhuang Zhou?
Vulcan was stunned for a moment. Then his teacher was not a Taoist saint?
Vulcan wanted to understand this, and his face turned blue and white. The Taoist Saint actually accepted such a shameless disciple. Fortunately, he didn't make any boasts and said that he wanted to teach his teacher a lesson.
No matter how arrogant Vulcan is, he should know which people he cannot offend, or rather, cannot afford to offend.
Zhuang Zhou sincerely advised: "Leave worldly matters to the secular world. God of Fire, stop it. Take the remaining people back to Nanzhao. Stay in a corner and don't come out in the future. Don't rashly get involved in the struggle for hegemony."
The world."
"Shinto is already in decline. If another accident happens to the God of Fire, wouldn't it be a great loss to Shinto?"
Zhuang Zhou spoke sincerely, but no one knew how much Vulcan actually listened.
However, Vulcan grasped one point keenly and asked: "What does Yasheng mean, is he willing to release the captured Nanzhao people?"
A look of hesitation appeared on Zhuang Zhou's face. He turned to look at Lin Ze and motioned for him to answer.
Lin Ze said calmly: "It is not difficult to release the prisoners. As long as the God of Fire promises not to attack ordinary soldiers of the Western Qin Dynasty, Pindao will send people back to Nanzhao soldiers in a few days."
"I dare to swear in the name of Taoist Saint."
The God of Fire glanced at Zhuang Zhou and Lord Taishan, with a hint of fear in his eyes, and snorted coldly: "You know what's going on."
After saying this, Vulcan left without looking back.
As soon as the God of Fire left, Zhuang Zhou took a big gulp. The big fish that covered the sky shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was finally swallowed by him.
The God of Mount Tai gently patted the ground, and the mountains and rivers returned to their original state, as if they had never been used before.
Lin Ze looked at the direction in which the Vulcan was leaving, and a plan slowly took shape in his mind.
