"How can I not care about my people? If the world is really in chaos, can we, the Miao Territory, stay out of it? Furthermore, if something happens to the Central Plains Taoist Sect in the Miao Territory, won't we come to take revenge?"
"Searching for wealth and honor at risk, there are no free benefits in this world. The saint wants to gain greater benefits, but is unwilling to suffer any loss, which is a bit fanciful." The old monk without anger sneered and turned around.
And he said,
"Even if the Central Plains Taoist Sect comes to retaliate, the first one to bear the brunt will be our Buddhist Sect in Shu, and it will be your turn later. What's more, they lost a lot of elites at that time, and they may not still have the ability to retaliate."
"Qianxue, you have gone too far with your repeated questioning." But at this moment, Elder Wushan suddenly spoke, with undisguised displeasure in his words. He snorted coldly, turned to look at the other elders, and then
road,
"Besides, it is an honor for my Holy Mountain to be the guest of Master Wu'ai, so why should we neglect it?"
"you……"
Saint Qianxue was so angry that she was shaking all over. Black Miao Wushan was arrogant in everything she said and did. It was obvious that she did not take her as a saint seriously.
"The saint is the master of my holy mountain, Wushan, how dare you be so rude?"
Qian Song on the side couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and asked.
"That's true, but if the saint is too young and does not have matching abilities and insights, she will not be able to make the right decision. As elders of various ministers, shouldn't we make corrections in time?"
"You are using strong words to make excuses. Everyone has seen how Qianxue has performed since she became a saint. How can I let you slander her?"
"The facts are before our eyes, and Wu is not talking nonsense..."
"Okay." Suddenly, one of the oldest elders suddenly spoke, stopping the quarrel between the two, and then looked at Wu'an and asked,
"Since the master came to my holy mountain and proposed this plan? But arrangements have been made in advance? I don't know? Can you tell me in detail?"
"Amitabha, it turns out to be the donor Chiyun." Wu Ai smiled, but did not answer immediately, and asked instead,
"May I ask the elders? But you have already contacted the Central Plains Taoist Sect? And agreed to participate in the other party's operation to encircle Bailing Mountain?"
"How did the master know this?"
Chiyun's snow-white eyebrows wrinkled, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Wushan, with a cold light in his eyes.
"Donor Chiyun misunderstood. Donor Wu didn't tell us about this. A few days ago, the poor monk received a message from the Central Plains Buddhist Sect, and then he found out. After all, how could the sect hide such a huge momentum?"
"So that's it." After hearing that Wushan had revealed the secrets of the Holy Mountain, Elder Chiyun looked slightly relieved and continued.
"We have indeed had some contact with the Taoist sect? However, it has not been finalized yet. I wonder what the master means when he mentions this matter?"
"It's very simple. You continue to contact Daomen and agree to be their guide for this encirclement and suppression operation."
"Huh?" After hearing this, not only Elder Chiyun, but also the expressions of everyone else in the hall changed slightly, obviously understanding the hidden meaning of the other party's words.
"Master Wu'an, could it be that you want my Holy Mountain to do such duplicitous things?"
"Of course." Wu Hao chuckled and continued,
"To be honest, although the Holy Mountain has been passed down for a long time, its strength in the world of practice is far behind. To confront the Taoist sect head-on is simply to hit the stone with an egg. In this case, it is better to do something within your ability. By then, you will
The mountain and the Taoist gate are empty and arrogant, and then you can do some tricks in secret, and then leave the rest to us, so you don’t have to worry about it."
"This is absolutely impossible." Upon hearing this, Elder Qian Song took the lead in shouting and replied firmly.
As long as you are not stupid, you can understand that if you really do this, then the reputation of the Holy Mountain will be completely ruined. How will you gain a foothold in the world in the future?
"Qiansong's intention is also our intention. This matter will never be feasible." Elder Chiyun also shook his head and replied. The others, except Wu Shanjin, all nodded in agreement.
"Amitabha, it seems that this poor monk has some extravagant hopes. You are all a group of short-sighted people, how can we work together?"
Seeing this, Wu Hao proclaimed the Buddha's name again, seemingly extremely disappointed. Suddenly, his expression suddenly turned cold, he turned to look at Wushan, and said in a cold voice,
"Donor Wu, let's do it."
Hearing the order, Wushan did not hesitate. His hands suddenly hit one place, and only a few snaps were heard. The next moment, dozens of figures in black costumes swarmed in from outside the palace.
"Wu Shan, do you want to rebel?" Seeing all this, everyone couldn't understand what was going on. Qian Song shouted loudly and asked.
"Rebellion, how could it happen? You are all too stupid to see a bright future at all. However, after Wu Mou's hard 'persuasion', you will soon 'come to your senses' and choose to agree."
"You... are wishful thinking, I will kill you thief."
Hearing such words, Qiansong became furious and was about to strike immediately to kill him, but at this moment, a sharp pain suddenly came from his dantian. Unable to hold on any longer, he immediately fell to the ground with a thud.
Not only Qian Song, but also several other elders suffered the same disaster soon after. They covered their Dantian with their hands, their faces turned pale, and they sat there paralyzed unable to move.
"Wu... Wushan, what did you do?"
"Haha, I didn't do anything. I just put some good things in your tea. How about it? It tastes good, right?" Wushan sneered, with a hint of something strange in his eyes.
"No, you are not Wushan, who are you?" Seeing the other party's strangeness, Elder Chiyun was suddenly startled and asked.
"Tsk tsk, you are indeed the most powerful elder in the Holy Mountain, and you noticed it." Wushan laughed, but said without caring,
"But it doesn't matter, we are going to be a family after all."
"What do you mean?"
Elder Chiyun felt horrified and had an extremely bad premonition.
"Wu is too lazy to talk nonsense when asking so many questions." Wu Shan snorted coldly, then looked at his subordinates,
"What are you doing in a daze? Tie them all up."
"Wu Shan, you bastard, you traitor, you will push the people into the abyss." Qiansong cursed regardless of the pain in his body.
"Pa..." Wu Shan waved his arm fiercely, and an illusory force emerged, and Qian Song was immediately slapped several meters away.
"What I hate the most is you. You are always so arrogant because you are the uncle of a saint. If I didn't see that you were of some use, I would have killed you with one slap."
"Bah... Just do it. If you don't kill me, you are a coward and a son of a bitch." At this time, blood was pouring from Qian Song's mouth, but he was not afraid at all and kept cursing.
"Damn it..." Wu Shan is not the kind of character who can tolerate it. Hearing such an insult, he could not get angry. He was about to help the other party, but at this moment, he was stopped by the old monk without anger.
"This is a way to provoke generals, don't be fooled. What's more, they are all men waiting for death, so why should you be on the same level as them?"
"Haha, yes, I'm really confused. Besides, I'm not the real Wushan. Why should I be angry with these ants?" Wushan suddenly realized.
…
"Is there really no other way?"
In the central seat, Saint Qianxue's expression remained unchanged, but her heart was filled with anxiety.
"I am just a sub-body. I can save your life to the limit, but others are beyond my reach." In the sea of consciousness, the petite purple flame swayed slightly and responded.
"What about your true body, and the Lord... Lord, they are so powerful, there must be something they can do?"
"It happened suddenly and there was no time." Xiao Zi sighed softly and said,
"Besides, this matter involves a lot, and it is far from as simple as you see. Even if the master can arrive in time, he may not do that. Instead, he will use the trick and sacrifice only these elders, which will cause the least loss to the entire Miao people.
"
"this……"
Hearing Xiao Zi's answer, Qianxue was immediately troubled. Not only was Qian Song his clan uncle, but several of her elders were also her elders. Seeing them being killed without being able to do anything, she felt extremely painful.
However, she is the saintess of the entire Miao people, and she has to consider the issue from the perspective of the entire tribe. If she must sacrifice, then how to preserve the tribe to the greatest extent is the most critical issue.
"How are you sure this is the minimum sacrifice?"
"It's very simple. They just want to control you and a few elders so that they can be used for their purposes and prepare for future conspiracies. As for the other tribesmen outside the Holy Mountain, with your leadership, they will naturally not do anything more.
.”
"control?"
Qianxue was startled for a moment, and then saw the situation ahead.
At this time, Wushan had already started to move, and he raised one arm. Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the cuff. The next moment, three-inch-long pitch black centipedes fell down.
Down.
"Centipede Gu?"
"Wrong, this is not your Miaojiang's voodoo technique." Xiao Zi corrected,
"If you take a closer look, what's the difference between those centipedes?"
"Isn't it?" Qianxue was slightly surprised. He had been with all kinds of poisonous insects since he was a child, so he was naturally not afraid of these things, and he was also very familiar with all kinds of poisonous insects. Looking at it again, he immediately realized that those centipedes were a little weird.
,
"They seem to be extremely intelligent."
"That's right, because they are not Gu insects, but demon insects, the offspring of the great demon. They have the same intelligence as humans, and can even practice alone."
"Then what do they want?"
"Seize the body and parasitize."
As soon as he finished speaking, all those centipedes had already crawled towards the eyebrows of several elders. The next moment, they turned into a black light and disappeared into it instantly.
"No……"
No need for Xiao Zi to explain, Qianxue already understood everything and couldn't help but scream. Unfortunately, there was no other way. She could only watch the elders holding their heads and twitching.
"Haha, don't worry, Saint, I will never forget you. Of course, you don't have to be too afraid. This is just temporary pain. It will pass after you endure it."
Wushan sneered, then strode forward, gradually approaching.
"You...you, don't come over."
At this moment, Qianxue screamed like an overly frightened little girl. Unfortunately, because she was also 'poisoned', she had no strength to resist.
"I still advise you to be honest, otherwise, even if Wu is not interested in the human race, it will still make your life worse than death." At this point, Wu Shan's cold eyes could not help but reveal a glimmer of lust.
Qianxue seemed to be extremely frightened, and her whole body was shaking uncontrollably. However, she did not dare to speak anymore. She only opened her big eyes and looked at the other person in horror.
"That's right. You are obedient, and Wu is too lazy to bother with it."
Wushan sneered again, raised his cuffs, and a black light suddenly shot out, and like before, it also penetrated into the opponent's eyebrows. Qianxue immediately fell from his seat, holding his head and twitching.
"What a pity." Wushan shook his head slightly, not knowing what he was feeling pity for, and then looked down at Wu'an and continued,
"The Holy Mountain has been controlled, and together with Bailing Mountain, the entire Miao Territory belongs to us. In this way, with the help of the special environment of the Miao Territory, we can definitely wipe out all the Taoist sects in the Central Plains."
"It's not that easy." Wu Ai twisted the beads in his hand and said calmly,
"Although those who came this time are only part of the Central Plains Taoist Sect, they are all elite forces from each faction. The combined strength is far beyond what Miaojiang can match."
"Isn't there still Buddhism? In Shu, your power is not small."
"It's them, not us. The so-called Buddhism is just a chess piece that can be used. How can it be compared with us?" Wu Ai corrected it and continued,
"Besides, all of those bald donkeys look kind and compassionate, but none of them are simple. Although I have been cultivating power in various Buddhist temples in Shu over the years, I can only control about 30%."
"So few!" Wushan asked immediately, seemingly a little surprised,
"Doesn't that mean that even if we succeed this time, it will only be a miserable victory in the end. There is even a possibility of failure?"
"Everything can only be gained by giving up. It's just a cycle of cause and effect." Wu Ai smiled, looking like he didn't care.
"Think about it, even if all 30% of the power I cultivated is lost, the impact will be huge. By then, both the Buddhist and Taoist sects have lost so many disciples, how can they be good?"
"hiss……"
Hearing this, Wushan suddenly realized and was surprised by the opponent's vicious plan. This was completely treating these forces as cannon fodder to fight against the people of the Taoist sect.
At that time, whether it is Buddhism, Taoism, or even the Holy Mountains of the Miao Territory, all will be involved, and it will be impossible to escape. In this way, it will really set off an unprecedented war in the entire spiritual world.
Wu'an ignored the other party's surprise and continued:
"A month ago, the ancestor of Tianlong went to Bianjing to complete the century-old plan of transforming into a dragon. As a result, he never returned, and the city of Bianjing was as usual, no different at all.
From this we can see that something is very likely to happen to our ancestor. For this reason, the boss sent a message and asked us to plan this action. Not only for the plan of the Holy Lord, but also to avenge this blood feud for our ancestor."
At this point, his compassionate eyes suddenly turned cold, and his fingers suddenly exerted force, crushing a rosary directly to pieces.
