This grasp seemed calm and gentle, but in fact it blocked all the space around Bai Yingqiong.
Bai Yingqiong had no choice but to return to her body, and then she was caught in the palm of Zhenjun Siming's hand.
There is an allusion in Buddhism: The mind is like a monkey and the mind is like a horse. No matter how powerful the mind is, it cannot escape from the palm of Buddha.
It's exactly the same now.
Even though Bai Yingqiong is a heavenly being in the immeasurable stage, she cannot escape from the hands of Lord Siming.
Countless Yin Qi swept toward Bai Yingqiong, as if to fill the entire world. Ordinary people here would turn into withered bones in the blink of an eye. Bai Yingqiong used talismans to form a lotus-shaped formation around her body to block the Yin Qi. Only in the Yin Qi
Under the erosion of the Qi, the brilliance quickly faded, and the originally blooming lotus turned into a closed bud. The magic circle was crumbling and could only be barely maintained.
Sikong Cuo stood at the feet of Zhenjun Siming, suffering from the "Red Lotus Karmic Fire". This kind of method was very difficult, and he could only rely on himself. At the same time, he had to maintain the small world that trapped Pei Xiaolou.
Zhang Yuelu naturally saw this scene and did not act rashly. It was not because she was afraid, but because she knew that rushing to rescue Bai Yingqiong would only be a waste and would not help.
As she said herself, she can't act on impulse.
One celestial being is useless, two celestial beings are useless, but if there are enough celestial beings, it will be useful.
Zhang Yuelu said softly: "Tianyuan, let's find a way to rescue Pei Zhenren. At this time, Li Tianlan, Lu Yushu, Li Mingcheng, Li Mingzhi and the others will no longer watch from the sidelines. Jiangnan Daofu, Tiangang Hall, and Beichen Hall will assemble.
All the manpower can still be dragged on for a while, waiting for reinforcements."
Qi Xuansu asked: "Will they think about the overall situation?"
"It's not for the sake of the overall situation, but for their own sake." Zhang Yuelu said very quickly, "If Jinling Mansion falls, millions of lives will be destroyed, and tens of millions of worry-free money will be lost. It's not peace money, it's worthless money.
Worrying about money cannot be answered by the head of a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest."
"Perhaps in times of war, the gains and losses of one city or one place would not matter. But now that the peace has lasted for a long time, it would be an earth-shattering event if the entire city was to die."
"Brothers are jealous outside the wall to resist their insults. Taiping Dao can bring in the imperial court, because the predecessor of the imperial court is Beidaomen. Emperor Gaozu is Xuansheng's father-in-law. There are also people from Taoist families serving in the court. Many marriages are combined, not only
It was the daughter of the Li family who married into the royal family, and Zhenren Lei from Quanzhen Taoism was also a member of the royal family. The two parties have long been indistinguishable from each other, and it is difficult to say that they are outsiders. As for the 'Tianting' and others, they are also doing it secretly. But this matter
Things are different, once they are put on the table, their nature is completely different."
"Suppose that Senior Sister died in the battle as the Chief Deputy Palace Master, and we also died here. Although they had a serious problem, they must also be directly held accountable. It is unjustifiable to blame such a major event on the dead, and for the sake of people's hearts
After considering it, the Taoist sect will not place the blame on the people who died in the battle. It is obvious that the three Taoist societies will quickly reach a consensus and go on a killing spree to give the world an explanation. At that time, whether it is Li Tianlan or several deputy hall masters,
Anyone else, no matter what their origins, as long as they are involved, will be quickly abandoned and punished."
"So we don't think about the people in the city, we don't think about the overall situation of the Taoist sect, we just think about themselves, and we can't remain indifferent." Zhang Yuelu's thoughts were still clear.
Qi Xuansu did not hesitate too much: "Okay, let's give it a try."
On the other side, just as Zhang Yuelu expected, even as wily and calculating as Li Tianlan, he would not be able to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.
While notifying all the spiritual officials and Taoist priests to gather together to build formations and defense lines to resist the Yin Qi, and at the same time digging drains outside the city to divert the huge Yin Qi, he personally came to Mary Cathedral.
At this time, Lei Xiaohuan and Shi Luosi were still in the small world of chessboard and knew nothing about what was happening in the outside world.
Obviously, Li Tianlan is a frequent visitor here, and none of the bishops or archbishops stopped him.
Li Tianlan, who was wearing a black crane cloak, strode forward, familiar with the road, and did not even need others to lead the way. A group of priests in white robes followed behind.
A Taoist priest is surrounded by a group of priests, which is quite absurd.
"When will this small world be opened?" Li Tianlan asked coldly. Although he was still calm and calm at this time, his previous indifference was gone, and there was a hint of anger in his tone that the situation was out of control.
An archbishop replied in pure Chinese Mandarin: "At noon."
"At noon?" Li Tianlan stopped, "Then we just wait to die."
All the priests also stopped and became silent.
As Cardinal Deacon Shi Luosi is not here, no one is qualified to talk to Li Tianlan on an equal footing. The two parties have cooperated for many years, which has already made them understand the weight of Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan turned around suddenly and said decisively: "Open the chessboard now and invite both Master Lei and Priest Shi out."
The archbishop hesitated and said: "In order to ensure that Zhenren Lei can be suppressed, the chessboard has been integrated with the entire church. If the small world is forcibly broken, it may cause irreparable damage to the church. This church has spent a lot of effort. After all,
A lot of materials have to be transported from the Holy Court headquarters..."
"Jinling Prefecture is in danger, and Jiangnan Dao Prefecture is in danger, so why talk about a church?" Li Tianlan suddenly raised his voice, "We have a saying in the East, which is called 'When the nest is overturned, there are no intact eggs.' Jiangnan Dao
The government has been destroyed and maritime trade has been affected. Can you still enjoy your time here and become a master? Do you want to leave the prosperous and rich Jinling and go to the wild New World to be a missionary?"
No one dared to refute.
The New World was poor and had nothing, no gorgeous churches, no jingling silver coins, no devout believers, no generous nobles, not even stable order, only pagans, heretics, criminals, natives, villains, and so-called
adventurer.
Only ascetics, or priests with firm beliefs, would go to the New World.
Li Tianlan slowed down his tone again: "Let him go, now, immediately."
The archbishop no longer objected, but still wanted to say something.
Li Tianlan closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Go."
"Yes." The archbishop responded and immediately turned around and left.
After the Grand Master left, Li Tianlan, who had been keeping his eyes closed, reopened his eyes and said, "Everyone, please do your best for Jinling Mansion, and especially for yourself."
Everyone looked at each other in shock at first, and then agreed in unison.
Li Tianlan stopped moving forward, turned around, returned the same way, and strode out of the main entrance of the church.
At this time, there were already people standing outside the church.
There are spiritual officials from Jiangnan Daofu and Beichen Hall. These spiritual officials have built a line of defense to initially resist the erosion of Yin Qi. This has prevented the people in the church from feeling the tide of Yin Qi.
Terrible.
In front of the many spiritual officials stood Li Mingcheng, Li Mingzhi, Lu Yushu, and a second-grade spiritual official from Jiangnan Daofu, who was a direct descendant of Li Tianlan's confidant.
These people are all waiting for Li Tianlan.
At this point, you can see who is the backbone in charge of the overall situation.
This has a certain relationship with the level of the position, but it is not necessarily related. Li Tianlan is only the second deputy palace master. These people are all deputy hall masters. Although the rank is slightly lower, there is no subordinate relationship in the position, and at this time, the Taoist sect
The system has not yet been broken up, and it is far from time to rely on the grade system to gather and integrate the remaining soldiers.
But at this time, these people did not have the slightest objection and all obeyed Li Tianlan's orders. This was their prestige over the years.
Li Tianlan looked around: "Our manpower is all here. Whether we want to or not, we are going to risk our lives."
Everyone was silent.
Li Tianlan continued: "If Jinling Mansion falls and turns into a dead city, Lord Siming can hide back in the Kingdom of God. So much flesh and blood, so many creatures, will be enough for him to live without worries for a hundred years, and even enough for him to take the crucial step."
One step. But we can't. If we escape now, we will be treated as a scapegoat. We will be escorted to Yujing afterwards and punished for the crime of abandoning the city and the land. It is not as simple as losing the future. We are afraid that our lives will not be saved.
.So, not for others, but for yourself, you must do your best.”
Several people nodded gravely.
Li Tianlan ordered: "I'll take people over first. Yushu, you stay here. After Master Lei comes out, explain it carefully and ask her to focus on the overall situation and not to be angry. You are both women, so it's easy to talk."
