"Fellow Taoist Tong?" Wuxu was startled and let go of his hand.
Xuanjizi was a person who had come before. When he saw Wuxu, his face was reddish, his eyes were slightly distracted and angry, his clothes were disheveled, and there was a faint fragrance. After a closer sniff, there was a strange smell in the air, and he guessed that he was inseparable.
, but did not mention it, but asked the chief inspector, "Master, after entering the Demon Prisoner Peak, did you find anything?"
Wuxu stopped talking, shook his head, and briefly described what happened to him after he came in. Finally, he vaguely mentioned that Zhao Tong was kidnapped here and seemed to be possessed by a demon.
Xuanjizi also described his situation in the past few days. He just hid the incident on the Moon Viewing Lake, but said that the Zhengyi Sect and the Quanzhen Sect in Tianwaitian had formed an alliance and were both branches of the Taoist sect. He was
He was pursued and killed, and had no choice but to escape to the Demon Prisoner Peak.
Wuxu then asked Xuanjizi what his plans were.
Xuanjizi looked around and saw only black mountains and rivers, with strange rocks and iron trees occasionally showing through the haze. He said lightly, "The only plan now is to take one step at a time."
Then he turned around, turned his back to Wuxu, and asked in a low tone, "Master said that Miss Zhao has become a demon, so what is Master's plan? Is it to cut off the love thread with a sword of wisdom, or to dance with the demon in the sky and share the beauty of the beauty in the sky?"
Wuxu was stunned and pondered for a moment, "As the saying goes, one thought can lead to a Buddha, and one thought can lead to a demon. The young monk is willing to be a ferryman, and one day he will save her and return to the right path."
"Medicine and medicine can't kill people, and Buddha can save people who are destined to be saved. What if the master can't save him?"
This was a cruel question, and Wu Xu felt sad in his heart. He clasped his hands and replied, "If there is no fate, the young monk will leave and forget."
The two of them were exchanging words with mystery. In the distance, on an old tree that was emitting a faint black smoke, a copper-like leaf suddenly fell off, floated into the distance, and finally turned into a small bird with iron feathers and sharp teeth.
The bird flew silently high into the sky and rushed into the dark clouds.
On a high cliff, there is a smooth boulder. There are layers of snow-white skulls on the boulder. Next to it sits a young woman with a beautiful face, red lips and black eyebrows, and a black gauze, but she is very transparent.
, the exquisite and graceful interior is vaguely visible. Although
At this moment, she is doing her exercises with her eyes closed, her face is cold and her expression cannot be seen, but she is a stunning beauty. However, in the middle of her eyebrows, there is a looming black pattern, which adds a bit of enchantment to her and makes her look strange.
As soon as I saw her, I felt that she was no ordinary beauty in the world.
Under the cliff, shrill shouts could be heard from time to time, as if someone was struggling to death and uttering his last wail before dying.
This woman seemed to have turned a deaf ear to it, or was accustomed to it.
Suddenly, an ugly and fierce-looking bird flew over. The woman slowly opened her eyes and stretched out her right hand. The bird hovered for a moment before landing on it.
After a while, the little bird turned into curls of green smoke. The enchanting beauty stood up, cast her gaze towards the thick clouds below, and waved her hand, bringing up a gust of fragrant wind.
A black cloud flew over and slowly penetrated into her white palm. Then, a purple-red maple leaf appeared out of thin air and flew downwards under the gaze of the woman's eyes.
Wuxu and Xuanjizi were sitting opposite each other, exchanging their thoughts on the Hundred-Character Inscription, when they suddenly saw a flash of red light in the sky, and a red leaf like a maple leaf floating in front of them.
Wuxu and Xuanjizi looked at each other, and were about to take action, when they saw a red light flashing above the maple leaves, and the strong smell of blood hit their nostrils. Looking again, a scene of two armies fighting appeared in the sky, one side was cavalry,
The infantry on one side, the cavalry on the other, are armed and iron horses with flying hooves, and the infantry on the other, their heads are wrapped in red scarves and their bodies are stained with blood... The battle situation is tragic, blood is flying thousands of miles away, and hell is everywhere!
Then I heard a voice, "I kept talking about saving people, but I was confused and infatuated and seeking the pleasure of the devil! I completely forgot about the suffering in the world, the killings in the world, and the uprising against the Yuan Dynasty! What about charity without form?"
, compassionate?”
As the voice fell, the maple leaves spontaneously ignited without wind, turning into ashes and scattered with the wind.
"Fellow Taoist, why don't you show up and see me?" Xuanjizi stood up, with a voice like thunder, and ran in all directions.
Wuxu, sitting there, with all the five flavors present, knew that this must be Zhao Tong without a doubt, although his voice was ruthless, hard to distinguish, and unpredictable.
This maple leaf, with hidden shadows and sounds, is very similar to the magical effect of Xiao Luo Pa Xuan Gong that Zhao Tong has practiced since he was a child.
Little Lopa Xuan Gong is a secret technique spread by a branch of the White Lotus Sect in the folk. It is best for young girls to start practicing it. First, embroider a Lopa with your own hands, draw the image of the saint on it, and worship it every day. When the Lopa is embroidered,
Okay, stick it to your chest and don't leave it for a moment. When Lopa becomes the size of a bellyband, the invisible saint will follow you.
Come down from the sky, open the body's spiritual points, and teach Xuan Gong. Moreover, this Xuan Gong method varies from person to person. For example, Zhao Tong, because he followed Grandma Liu pretending to be a refugee since he was a child, and went along the street to find out news, and for a long time he pretended to be a Lamaist.
Kabuki later hid in Shuyue Pavilion, and the Xuan Gong he practiced was focused on concealing assassination messages.
This routine of transmitting images and accompanying sounds and then burning them after reading is exactly the fleeting sound that Zhao Tong is good at. However, now, it is more mysterious. In the past, you had to use specific worshiped objects, but now you can get them at your fingertips.
, everything is available.
There is also this maple leaf. That day, I once talked to Zhao Tong about the red maple leaves in Qixia Temple, saying that the small maple leaves can bring back memories of the past, making people have endless aftertaste and understand their true nature. Zhao Tong said several times,
If you have a chance, you should taste it for yourself. Now, the maple leaves have visualized the old scene of the battle between the Yuan Army and Liu Futong's Red Scarf Army. The symbolism in it reminded Wuxu of the memories of that day.
Xuanjizi shouted three times in a row, the sound shook the clouds, but there was no response. He sat down again, lowered his head for a moment, and asked, "Uprising against the Yuan Dynasty... Could it be that the maple leaf just now was Miss Zhao's message?"
Not only was it "revolting against the Yuan Dynasty", but he also "forgot it completely", as well as the previous sentence "Confused and obsessed, seeking the devil's pleasure"! Wu Xu was shocked, could it be that Zhao Tong secretly said what he just said?
See? What should I do?
He hurriedly turned over and stood up, looking at the boundless dark clouds. He wanted to speak loudly, but he was stunned and didn't know what to say. Xuanjizi was beside him again, and he didn't know how to say something.
Wuxu felt heavy and uneasy. After thinking for a long time, he mustered up the courage to face the direction in which the maple leaf had just flown, and shouted loudly, "Zhao Tong, is that you just now?"
After a while, the clouds in the sky rolled, and another maple leaf flew down. What appeared was a dance of demons. In the picture, countless coquettish flying gods, wearing long gauze sleeves and sultry postures, surrounded a monk.
,dance to tune.
When Wuxu saw this, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. However, he saw the scene change, Feitian fled away, and the Buddhist niche behind the monk stood out, with the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, red lotuses and yellow flags...
Just as Wuxu was about to speak again, the scene in the Buddhist hall disappeared, and two lines of black characters, silver paintings with iron hooks, and dancing dragons and phoenixes appeared in front of him: The Dharma Realm is full of joy, and the human world is suffering. When the white lotus blooms in China, the Devil Prisoner Peak flies to the sky again.
.
These four lines of lyrics linger in the air for a long time.
There was a loud noise, and a beautiful shadow flashed past Wuxu and Xuanjizi from top to bottom, and then flew downwards.
Wuxu and Xuan Jizi flew up at the same time and chased after them. However, they saw that beautiful figure flying through the clouds and mist like a sharp arrow, breaking through the layers of cloud barriers on the Demon Prisoner Peak and heading directly towards the human world below.
Xuanjizi stopped abruptly, looked at Wuxu's getting smaller and smaller figure, and smiled slightly, "Demons are born from the heart, but Wuxu, you are possessed by Zhao Tong's demon. Forget it, if you fly to the sky again on Demon Prisoner Peak, Pindao Mr.
Take one step of cultivation and wait for you to go up to the Prisoner Demon Peak and come back to the Flying Demon to dance."
After saying that, a stern look flashed in his eyes, and he flew towards the top of Demon Prisoner Peak.
However, in the sea of clouds at the top of Mount Lu, the monks suddenly saw a charming woman with a strong demonic aura coming out of the Demon Prisoner Peak. Immediately afterwards, Wu was beaten into the Demon Prisoner Peak by Master Basiba a few days ago.
Monk Xu put one palm forward, clasped the Buddha beads in his hand, and also flew out.
Then someone yelled, "Master Wuxu, kill the witch. We, the righteous people, should lend a helping hand!" As he said this, groups of three or five, holding magic weapons, followed Wuxu closely.
.
Unexpectedly, Wuxu and the witch, one after the other, flew as fast as lightning to the human world below in the blink of an eye. The people following behind had to stop and look at the bottom of the vast sea of clouds.
To the northeast, everyone shook their heads.
"The witch is heading northeast. Judging from the situation, she is probably going to cause trouble to Yingtian Mansion!"
"No problem, Master Wuxu is a rising star in the Buddhist sect, and the Vajra Wheel has been blessed by two eminent monks, Pasipa and Yuanfa. It's not easy to capture it now, and I won't let the Demonic Sect bring harm to the world!"
Everyone stood on the top of Lushan Mountain, deep in the sea of clouds, looking at the two increasingly smaller figures below, pointing and talking.
But I saw Duoji flying out from Lianfa Peak, stepping on white lotus-shaped auspicious clouds, holding one hundred and eight long Buddhist beads in his hand, and also flew towards Yingtian Mansion.
On Haoran Peak, Liu Bowen and a woman flew out, looked down, and remained silent for a long time. Finally, Liu Bowen turned sideways and whispered a few words to the woman, and the woman smiled and said, "Buddha and witch
, it's really interesting." Then, he shouted to the monks who gathered around him and wanted to strike up a conversation, "Why are you watching the fun! If you want to watch the fun, you can also fly down like others!" After that, he turned around expressionlessly,
Flying towards Haoran Peak.
Liu Bowen smiled and slightly cupped his hands towards these monks, half apologizing and half consulting, "The world is in chaos, fellow Taoists, the six peaks are not allowed to enter, why don't you take the opportunity to go to the human world, do justice for heaven, and accumulate merit?"
All the monks looked at each other and said nothing.
After a while, a man came out and said, "What my fellow Taoist said was true in ancient times. At that time, King Zhou was unruly, and all the monks obeyed the law and helped the Western Zhou Dynasty raise troops, relying on luck. But now, God's will is unfavorable.
Only at the top of Lushan Mountain, I occasionally feel the sensation. I'm afraid it will be in vain when I wait to go down the mountain."
Previously, all the monks thought that the luck of the Yuan Dynasty had declined, and they could accumulate merit by following the heaven and conquering the Yuan. But when they went to Mount Lu, they felt the breath of the upper world a little bit the day before yesterday, and then they realized that God's will had been cut off for a long time, and luck was also a human being.
The mythical legends in the world.
Liu Bowen nodded slightly, "This is indeed true. The Taoist Supreme Master said in the induction chapter that there is no door to blessings and misfortunes, but people call for it, and the rewards of good and evil follow them like a shadow. But over the years, they have been killing people, setting fires, gold belts, building bridges and paving roads.
No body
, God’s will is indeed isolated! However, when the Lushan Grand Formation is opened and Qingtian is observing the stars at night, it seems that the gate of heaven is gradually opening, and the heaven’s induction is slowly appearing again.” After a pause, “But I am of a low level, so I dare not draw any conclusions.
"
The monks listened to Liu Bowen's words and talked about it, but no one was willing to leave hastily and go to the human world to do the so-called useless work of "doing good deeds and accumulating virtue".
However, Wuxu chased the person suspected of being Zhao Tong and flew over Yingtian Mansion, whereupon he lost his target.
"The Dharma Realm is full of joy, and the sufferings of the human world are lingering together. When the white lotus flowers in China bloom, they fly to the sky again on the Demon Prisoner Peak." Wuxu muttered, this sentence was obviously Zhao Tong's admission that he was in love with him, and then they met together.
Go down to Lushan Mountain and raise up the White Lotus Sect to fight against the Yuan army. When they are successful, they will go back to the Devil's Prison Peak together with themselves and break into the outer world again.
But why did Zhao Tong avoid him and finally disappear altogether?
Zhao Tong, Zhao Tong, so what if you are a witch? The Kuomintang and the Communist Party can still unite to fight against Japan, why can't you and I join hands to start a religion and fight against the Yuan Dynasty?
Wuxu stood high in the sky, feeling melancholy for a while.
See below, on both sides of the Yangtze River, war smoke is rising, and the Yuan army and Zhu Yuanzhang's troops are fighting fiercely.
After thinking about it, I had no choice but to head towards Xiaguan where I was originally guarding.
In a military tent in Xiaguan, Lu Zhongheng and Guo Ying were red-faced and arguing loudly.
"We can't lose Xiaguan! Although our army suffered heavy casualties, why didn't the Yuan army do the same?"
"We can't lose Xiaguan! But our army can just sit back and wait for work, rely on various fortresses and annihilate the enemies who invade in the future. Why send warships to fight with the enemy in the river?!"
"The enemy ships are tall and equipped with cannons and firearms. If they are allowed to approach the shore, our army will suffer greater losses, not to mention that it is difficult to guarantee that the enemy will secretly send sergeants to land and attack in small boats!"
The generals in the tent, seeing the two men getting more and more angry as they talked, almost pulled out the swords from their waists and started fighting to the death. They hurriedly divided into two groups, hugged Lu Zhongheng and Guo Ying respectively, and separated them.
It stands to reason that Lu Zhongheng is the commander-in-chief, but Guo Ying is Zhu Yuanzhang's confidant and even saved Zhu Yuanzhang's life. Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely suspicious. Guo Ying was originally sent to assist Lu Zhongheng, but it was difficult to guarantee that he would be under surveillance. As time went by,
,
This Guo Ying also won over a group of soldiers. Although in the army, the leader is respected, but in the Xiaguan defensive battle, Lu Zhongheng insisted on sending warships to fight the Yuan army in the river, resulting in heavy casualties. The strategy proposed by Guo Ying,
Many people agree with it from the bottom of their hearts.
Lu Zhongheng was grabbed by the arm by the generals on his left and right, and he was so angry that he groaned, "I am the general, don't you understand the rules of the army and do not respect the general's orders?" With that, he walked towards the commander of the military tent.
Go, reach for the arrow.
But he saw that the arrow slowly flew up, as if being pulled by an invisible hand, and headed outside the tent.
The generals hurriedly swarmed around and ran out of the tent, only to see Wuxu holding a command arrow falling from the sky!
"The young monk is ordered by Madam Ma to assist in guarding Xiaguan. In emergencies, he has the authority to do whatever he wants. I wonder if you all remember?" Wuxu said slowly after everyone had sat down.
Then several generals looked at each other, stepped out and clasped their fists and said, "Master is the marshal's senior brother. He was awarded the title of Grand Master of Taiping Xingguo. Master, Madam Ma has another order. Of course we will remember it."
Wu Xu glanced at these generals lightly, remembered them in his heart, smiled, and said to Lu Zhongheng and Guo Ying, "When a large army fights, we must work together. The young monk is entrusted to assist you in guarding the troops."
Guan, now the two of you have different opinions, and the young monk has to come forward. I hope you can forgive me."
Lu Zhongheng glanced at Guo Ying fiercely, then looked at Wuxu, "In the current situation, how can master teach me?!"
Wuxu said slowly, "There is blood and fighting in the river. Although we can prevent the enemy from using their strong ships and powerful artillery to secretly send sergeants to land on the beach when they reach the shore. But the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. It is not appropriate to continue like this."
"
"Huh!" Lu Zhongheng said, "The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. That's how it is! If we don't meet the enemy in the river and let it press to the shore, then hundreds of miles of coast will eventually find gaps and a steady stream of water will flow.
If we land and kill people, Xiaguan will be in danger!"
Guo Ying stood up and said, "That's a good point, but General Lu knows that our warships are low and narrow, and have no advantage over the Yuan army's taller ships. It's like hitting an egg against a stone! It's better to use the shore and land to gain more data."
Point, lure the Yuan army to abandon their ships and land, and our army will encircle and annihilate them on land based on their strongholds and depth!"
Wuxu clasped his hands together, "The key is whether our army can surround and annihilate the Yuan army that landed in time! We will not let the Yuan army build a bridgehead and continue to add troops."
Lu Zhongheng immediately jumped up and said, "The Xiaguan defense line is hundreds of miles away. Although there are more than a hundred fortresses of our army, each of them only has one or two hundred people! The troops are weak, and once the hole is opened, how can we encircle and annihilate it in time? I'm afraid that's when the time comes
, the Yuan army marched straight in!"
As soon as Lu Zhongheng said this, the army commander was silent for a while. Indeed, there are not many soldiers stationed in the coastal fortresses, and it is easy to break through the defense line. Then when the Yuan army continues to gather on the other side, Xiaguan will definitely not be safe.
When Wuxu heard about this deployment, he couldn't help but ask, "Why is the military strength along the coast so weak? It is so weak, but why has it persisted until now?"
The generals who had previously agreed with Wuxu stepped forward and replied, "This arrangement is due to the insufficient strength of our army. The fact that we can persist until now is due to the fact that the Master has been leading the monks to provide support in the center."
Wuxu understood in his heart that it was because of the help of monks before that the problem of insufficient troops compared to the long defense line no longer existed. Now, the monks have gone to Mount Lu to pursue the immortal fate.
.The situation here is full of crises.
As the saying goes
The fate of Buddha's crossing is said to be mysterious, and the maple leaves are secretly suspicious.
Who lingers in the sufferings of the world? The river at the foot of Lushan Mountain is in a hurry.
