"It's rare that tonight, Brother Sima, if you have anything to say, you can say it directly."
Zhu Donglai raised his head because the bluestone on which Sima Zhi sat was naturally a little higher.
Sima Zhi leaned forward slightly and looked at him.
Since Sima Zhi left Beijing to serve as the Left Counselor of Yongzhou City, he had met with Zhu Donglai, the general who defended Yongzhou City, many times, but he had never been so close and calmly alone like today.
In the valley, it was a windy and snowy night, and the two of them were facing each other like this. They were not in the government office, there was no one else, and they could say anything.
Suddenly, Sima Zhi smiled and straightened his body again, "You have never read the book for me, and I can tell people everything. Yuan Zai lived in Tianren Academy for a hundred years, and later took office in Yongzhou. He only wanted to calm the people and cultivate their moral integrity.
Yuan Zai, I also had several pleasant conversations with the general. The general must understand Yuan Zai's heart."
Yuan Zai should be the title Sima Zhi chose for himself.
Zhu Donglai's face became solemn and he didn't answer. He seemed to be thinking seriously. Finally, he raised his head again and looked at Sima Zhi, who was a little carried away. "Is that strange fragrance just now really a fragrance handed down from generation to generation?"
Sima Zhi looked at Zhu Donglai intently and replied in a deep voice, "If it weren't for the incense passed down from generation to generation, how could the villagers of Niutou Village be so happy, while we monks are so panic-stricken, as if they smell the stench, all their magic skills are tainted?"
"It turns out that it is really the incense handed down from ancient times," Zhu Donglai stood up slowly, "I have long heard that this incense passed down from ancient times has an incomparable fragrance to ordinary people, but it has a foul smell and filth to those who practice it. It turns out that this is really the case.
ah."
"This handed down fragrance can only be obtained by members of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty." Sima Zhi also became solemn, "General Zhu, do you know how powerful it is?"
Zhu Donglai nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know, of course I know."
Before he finished speaking, the wolf flag in his hand spread out in the wind. More than a hundred demonic wolves appeared again, surrounding Sima Zhi and the flying snow in the valley.
At the same time, he flew up, his armor appeared automatically, holding a long sword, and struck straight at Sima.
Sima Zhi's figure immediately disappeared, as if it was a phantom in the first place. Instead, the snowflakes flying in the valley were flying one by one, like a rain of pear blossoms, a hidden weapon of the Tang Sect.
The demonic sound wolves howled incessantly and disappeared one after another.
Zhu Donglai had no scruples. He just looked at the sword in his hand.
When the sword fell, Sima Zhi disappeared. However, when the sword stopped, the light became more intense, like countless meteors, flying and falling, drawing countless straight lines.
Those snowflakes suddenly turned into powder.
"The wind and snow have calmed down after all." Zhu Donglai murmured to himself, and then disappeared.
.....
In a hazy palace, a white-haired general frowned slightly, "I finally saw this guy right."
, but making such a commotion..."
"It is rare for me to have such loyal people in the Zhou Dynasty. It doesn't hurt to waste some of the fragrance passed down from generation to generation and the light of the people." A middle-aged woman, dressed in palace clothes, sat high above and sighed slightly.
Then she said, "Right now, the most important thing is how to get out of seclusion." When she said this, she turned her head to another place.
Opposite the white-haired general, there was also a white-haired old man sitting. The official robe on his body was stained with blood and had turned a dark color. He saw the middle-aged woman in palace clothes looking towards him and paused slightly.
Shen Shen said, "The Shenqian boy just asked for his own life to go out and possess a villager, intending to find his original
Master, who is now the city lord of Yongzhou City, you can give it a try. After all, Niutou Village is also selected in the Demon Realm. But it must be done as soon as possible. Just now, Zhu Donglai killed Sima Zhi. In order to cover up our motives, we did not let those people
I realize that it has indeed lost a lot, and it can be estimated that it can only last for a few days."
"It's just a few days. Will it end in a few days?" The middle-aged Emei woman in palace clothes raised her head sadly, as if she was looking up to the sky and the earth, "Old General Li, Old Prime Minister Zuo, if this is true, it is probably God's will."
"Princess, please don't say that." The two white-haired old men suddenly nodded in unison and burst into tears.
...
Wuxu, after escaping naked, finally managed to sit down for a while. When the sky was dim, Wuxu summoned Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Mingshan to quietly leave the place where this was wrong. According to Wuxu's words, leave Yongzhou City.
, each walked and practiced separately; if not, now we should cherish each other and leave this Yongzhou City first.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Mingshan would not stay in a cold and troubled place. Seeing that Wuxu, the city lord, wanted to leave, they naturally followed the trend and wanted to go with Wuxu.
As a result, the three of them quietly left the city lord's mansion, and still followed the previous routine. Li Mingshan showed up, dressed as an extremely ordinary demon cultivator, while Wuxu and Zhu Yuanzhang remained invisible in the legal world without revealing a trace.
...
After a snowy night, the tall city walls of Yongzhou City were vaguely visible. All the villagers in Niutou Village who left the village heaved a sigh of relief, except for the two or three sleeping children. The sky was dim, and Yongzhou was in front, making people more or less nervous.
I finally saw hope.
Wang Er, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped and looked up at the looming word "Yongzhou" in the distance, as if he was thinking a lot.
At this time, Li Mingshan, who had just left the city, was coming towards her. To be precise, she was not coming towards her. Instead, Li Mingshan was flying slowly in the air, while Wang Er was looking up on the ground, although he was looking up at the Yongzhou City Tower.
However, after all, there was a possibility of an angle. Li Mingshan saw Wang Er's face. She stopped and slowly landed opposite Wang Er.
This move naturally caused Wuxu and Zhu Yuan to
At Zhang's attention, Wuxu let out his consciousness slightly. This Wang Er?! Why does he look familiar?
Li Mingshan suddenly pulled out the Purple Sun Sword, and the blade of the sword swayed with righteousness, and stopped at Wang Er's neck.
The villagers of Niutou Village behind Wang Er waved their weapons one after another. The battle with the Demonic Sound Wolf gave them the courage to risk their lives in the face of danger.
Wang Er did not dodge, but his face was a little surprised. He looked at the stranger in front of him steadily.
Suddenly, he saw the inconspicuous bead in Li Mingshan's hair. That bead had a familiar aura to him.
He remained silent, letting Li Mingshan put the Purple Sun Sword on her shoulder, the sword's energy cutting her neck hurting faintly, and there was even a trace of blood.
He smiled, like a righteous man who sacrificed his life generously, and looked at the bead on Li Mingshan's hair, "My Buddha is merciful and all living beings are equal. Could it be that if we change the laws and regulations, we ordinary people will have no way to survive?"
His voice surprised Wu Xu and Zhu Yuanzhang. Is this the voice of Shen Qian?!
Li Mingshan was also surprised and wondered why this person who looked so much like Han Shuang smelled so strange. The most important thing was that he was not talking to her.
Li Mingshan has been possessed by the devil for a long time. In this situation, she will never take back her long sword. She simply raised her heart and turned cold, and slashed down with the long sword. Although it would not kill the person in front of her, she still wanted to cut off one of his arms.
But I saw Wang Er, with a flash of golden light all over his body. He retreated and said with a smile, "Master, for the sake of being the Lord of Yongzhou City, are you willing to be a hawk and kill someone?"
With a flash of golden light, the aura of the Mandala Dharma Realm leaked out.
Wuxu, through induction, confirmed that the ordinary villager in front of him was undoubtedly a divine being! Although his appearance and aura were completely different, Wuxu still hurriedly sent a message to Li Mingshan, asking him to stop.
"Who is this person?" Li Mingshan asked quietly, her sword still intact.
Who is this person? I realized for a moment that I couldn't answer the question correctly.
His own disciple, Shen Qian?
I have never accepted disciples. In my previous life, I was enlightened and wanted to be a teacher. I was nagging and talking about things, which was actually quite annoying.
Besides, all living beings are equal, and you have never achieved great success in cultivating Buddhism, so why should you want others to be your disciples?
Moreover, in front of us, Shen Qian seems to be possessing this Niutou villager with a secret method. What is his real appearance and real situation? What do he mean by those words just now?
Wuxu once again looked at the person in front of him with his eyes.
Wang Er (Shen Qian) stood there, motionless. Behind him, several Niutou villagers stood forward, holding weapons, standing on his left and right, with a magnanimous air of willing to die together.
Shanshan's long sword is facing the water, looking secretly at the secluded Dharma Realm.
It's just that this person has the same old appearance, but there is something hidden in it.
