Chapter 291 The Will of Luanjingshan
There were fifteen bodies lying on the roadside, all of them were riddled with holes and blood. The weapons had not been pulled out yet. The only survivor was also seriously injured. He sacrificed a paper talisman at the last moment and barely saved his life. His chest and below were soaked in blood.
A casual cultivator gave him simple treatment, and the bleeding had stopped, but he still looked panicked, "I won't die, will he? He won't come back, will he? I am a general of the Talang Kingdom, and I will give you a big reward..."
The man was in his early thirties, slightly fat, with a small mustache on his lips. He didn't look like a general, but a pampered businessman. But he could sacrifice talismans to save his life, obviously from an aristocratic family.
Yang Qingyin flew a circle and returned to the ground, "There is no trace of him. I guess he has run far away. It's really strange. Didn't Zuo Liuying say he was going to Luanjing Mountain? He hasn't arrived in ten days?"
Shen Geng showed a powerful spell when he escaped from Duanliu City. Ten days were enough for him to fly to Luanjing Mountain, eight thousand miles away, but he was still stranded in the Lianhai Mountain area, which was indeed a bit unexpected.
Mu Xingqiu had been standing beside the injured man, squatting down and asking, "How long ago were you attacked?"
The injured man stared at Mu Xingqiu and the other head on his shoulder, his eyes flickering, "You, you and him...you..."
"We are not in the same group, I am hunting him down." Mu Xingqiu had already returned to his Taoist attire, and was dressed exactly the same as Shen Geng, which aroused the injured man's suspicion.
"Shortly after noon, he fell from the sky and asked us for directions..."
"Where are we going?"
"Luanjing Mountain."
Mu Xingqiu looked up and exchanged a glance with Yang Qingyin. Zuo Liuying was right.
"Then what happened?" Mu Xingqiu asked.
"A soldier asked a few more questions, and the Taoist priest...he suddenly changed his face and started killing people. I have never seen such a savage person." The injured man's expression suddenly changed, and he trembled all over. Although the killing lasted only a very short time, the impact on him has always been there. "It shouldn't be like this, even if they are sworn enemies, it shouldn't be like this."
Mu Xingqiu stood up, feeling very confused. He knew that Shen Geng was a crazy Taoist priest, but killing a group of weak mortals indiscriminately was really inconsistent with Shen Geng's arrogant character. He couldn't help asking: "Has the magic Taoist priest's killing reached this point?"
Yang Qingyin snorted. She didn't know much about magic Taoist priests. "Maybe these soldiers' words offended him."
The injured couldn't move.
But he could still shake his head, "No, no, we thought he was a cultivator at first, and we were very polite to him. We just asked his name and whether he was a subordinate of the Life and Death Mage King."
The guardian Sima next to him spoke, "This officer is right. The Talang Kingdom is different from the northern vassal states. Here, cultivators are highly respected. Even the king himself has to show courtesy to the cultivators."
In places like Xijie Kingdom, the status of casual cultivators is much more miserable, and they are often hunted down by the Longbin Society and the army. Mu Xingqiu somewhat understood why Lan Binghu could lead so many cultivators. Her place is obviously a refuge.
Fei Ba also followed, hiding behind Mu Xingqiu, biting his lip and thinking for a while before he mustered up his courage. He said hesitantly: "I think... I think the Taoist killed people because he was afraid."
"What are you afraid of?" Mu Xingqiu asked.
Fei Yue shuddered, and was frightened first, "I, I don't know. But you see how he killed people, these people didn't offend him much, but he... did such a cruel thing, either he hated them to the bone, or he was too scared."
Yang Qingyin nodded, "What you said is really a little bit reasonable, with Shen Geng's magic power, he can easily kill these mortals, but he has to use a butcher knife to kill chickens, making people bloody. But what is he afraid of?"
The wounded on the ground didn't understand very well, he only cared about one thing now, "I am a general of the Talang Kingdom, this is not far from the Talang City, send me back, the king will reward you heavily."
The guardian Sima walked to the wounded He lowered his head and asked, "What's your name? I know almost all the generals of the Talang Kingdom, but I've never seen you."
"My surname is Gu..."
"Well, this is a royal surname, strange, then I should know you, why do you look strange to me?"
The wounded hesitated, "Are you all subordinates of the Dharma King?"
"I am Chen Guanhuo, the Dharma Protector of the Lianhaishan Monk Group. If you know my name, don't lie to me. I can save you, and I can naturally kill you. In the Talang Kingdom, we are the government.
"You have to tell me your full name and identity. I can't inform you if you only have a surname." Fu is a royal surname, and the identity of the wounded is obviously not simple, but Chen Guanhuo is unmoved.
"My name is Fu Hao, the governor of Huangyin City, and I came here specifically to see the Life and Death Mage King."
Chen Guanhuo hugged his arms and looked at the businessman-like mustache, "I have heard of Fu Hao, the governor of Huangyin City, why don't you bring the Huangfu Army? Why are there so few people? "
"I am really Fu Hao, I have evidence in my arms." Fu Hao's hands were weak, and he could only signal with his eyes.
Chen Guanhuo was still hesitating, and suddenly a scream came from the distance, and then someone shouted: "Southwest! Southwest!"
Several casual cultivators immediately flew to the southwest, Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin also flew up on their swords, flying faster, one used the sky eye to look far away, and the other took out an oil lamp to be alert.
At this time, the night had just fallen, and there was still a ray of light. The southwest was still a group of undulating mountains. Flying to a high place, the outline of Talang City could be seen. A dozen casual cultivators were fighting with an enemy on a small peak, a few miles away, and the falling magic burned several trees.
The traces of that man's spell were weak, and only two Pangshan Taoist priests and a few casual cultivators could see the thin beams of light.
"It's a Taoist priest." Mu Xingqiu quickened his pace. Although Zuo Liuying reminded them that Shen Geng was already at the Dianxia realm and had extremely murderous intentions, and the Taoist priest could not be his opponent, Mu Xingqiu could still Using the power of the soul again will not have a devastating effect on the Frost Soul Sword.
But that person was not Shen Geng.
A female Taoist priest from Luanjing Mountain stood slightly lower on the peak, lightly fighting with the casual cultivator. She held a bronze mirror and occasionally emitted light. The casual cultivator's spells fell automatically after being a few feet away from her, unable to touch her at all. body.
"Everyone, stop, I recognize this Taoist priest." Mu Xingqiu said loudly, and the monks recognized him as the guest of the Dharma King. He hesitated to stop, but still stood in a staggered position and prepared for the attack.
"It turns out to be Fellow Taoist Pangshan and Fellow Daoist Yang." The man also recognized their identities.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang of Luanjing Mountain, what a coincidence that we meet again here." Mu Xingqiu stopped and separated from Yang Qingyin. They were separated by a hundred steps like horns, and the two of them also remained vigilant.
Zhang Suqin from the Luanjing Mountain Mirror Department once went to Duanliu City to deliver a letter from Pangshan Grandmaster Ning Qiwei. That meeting was quite unpleasant. Zuo Liuying flatly refused to obey Grandmaster Ning's orders and did not even come forward to meet the messenger in person.
"The Talang Country is the place where I select disciples from Luanjing Mountain. Why are the two Pangshan Taoist priests here? I remember that you were very reluctant to come at the beginning." Zhang Suqin stood on the ground, her hands hanging down in her sleeves, who It was also unclear whether she was holding a magic weapon in her hand.
"Let's come see our relatives." Yang Qingyin rushed to say, "What are you doing here? Taoist priests don't interfere in mortal affairs, so why are you fighting with casual cultivators?"
Zhang Suqin was a Taoist priest of the first level of Xingluo. She disdained to argue with Mu and Yang, and said loudly to more than a dozen casual cultivators: "I am the envoy of Luanjing Mountain. I am not here to fight. I have something to say to the Dharma King, please." Tell me.”
Lan Bingju's voice sounded, but no one showed up, "Zhang Suqin. I told you three hundred years ago that the water in our river does not harm the water in the well. Girls with Taoist roots will return to Luanjing Mountain, and boys will return to other Taoist traditions. Even All the casual cultivators in Haishan belong to me, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Suqin glanced around, but there was no sign of Lan Curling. He was unhappy in his heart, but his face did not show it, "Three hundred years, too many things have changed. King Lan, our agreement must also change a little."
"Change? Tell me about it."
Zhang Suqin glanced at Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin, "The demon clan invaded and Pangshan was destroyed. It was the time when the world was in chaos, and many of the previous agreements were out of date. Grandmaster Luanjingshan issued an edict that from now on, all Talang people in the country would All troops and casual cultivators must obey Luan Jingshan’s orders within three days, and ask the Dharma King to lead the casual cultivators to Chaos Cliff in the south of Talang City to listen to the order.”
Dozens of casual cultivators flew over. After hearing this, they were all furious. All of their hands showed magic spells. They were just waiting for an order to attack Luanjingshan Taoist priest.
Lan Bingju was actually lifeless. He was silent for a moment and laughed a few times. "Okay, another three-day appointment at Chaos Cliff. I will definitely be there. Let's see what title Master Luanjingshan can give me."
"I'm afraid the one who was given the title was not the Grandmaster, but Feng Ruhui." Mu Xingqiu slightly provoked.
Zhang Suqin rose into the air and said loudly: "Luanjing Mountain is the only hope for mankind to stop the monsters and demons. In Chaos Cliff, you will see the true power of Luanjing Mountain. King Lan, if you sincerely join Luanjing Mountain , give these two Pangshan Taoist priests to me now.”
"That's what I had in mind, but I made a bet with them. The bet period hasn't ended yet. In three days, I will take them to Chaos Cliff." Lan Bingju still didn't show up.
Zhang Suqin knew that she was no match for Lan Bingju, and that the other party had already expressed his intention to surrender. Regardless of whether it was true or not, her mission had been completed, so she followed the trend and said, "Okay, see you at Chaos Cliff."
"I won't send it."
Zhang Suqin flew a certain distance before suddenly adding .a.com and quickly disappeared into the night.
Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin came to another mountain peak under the guidance of Sanxiu. There was no road on the mountain, but the carriage stopped on the grass at the top of the mountain. The carriage spread out and Lan Bingju sat on a wide chair, not far from the carriage. Fu Hao and Fei Ba stood like a pair of frightened brothers in distress. The former was still stained with blood, but he was no longer seriously injured.
"I thought the Mage King of Life and Death was so powerful, huh." Yang Qingyin expressed her disdain frankly.
"I'm not a fool. The Taoist tradition is divided. Pang Shan wants to start a war with Luanjing Mountain. Why should I participate? Zuo Liuying doesn't want any help from me." Lan Bingju pointed at Fu Hao, "Say what you just said again. ”
"The 10,000 yellow talisman troops in the Imperial Hidden City and the 7,000 purple talisman and black talisman troops in the Talang Kingdom will all follow the Dharma King's decision. Whichever side you go to, we will go to that side."
Lan Bingju raised his head and thought for a while, "My decision is never to surrender to Pangshan."
Mu Xingqiu knew that Zuo Liuying had given him an impossible task of persuasion.
