Chapter 390 Believe or Not
Ding Wei, the only Taoist priest living outside Wangshan, was killed a month ago, leaving only an empty Taoist temple. Today, it is in chaos, with a large group of Taoist priests arguing endlessly. If an outsider sees this, he will never believe that these are disciples of the Taoist sect who take meditation as their first priority. Top*Point* ..
"There are still Taoist priests from Pangshan alive in Laozu Peak. We must fight back!" Shen Hao raised his arms and shouted, attracting a lot of approval.
"This is a trap! This is a trap! Just waiting for us to jump in. Everyone calm down." Qishan Taoist priest Yang Qingyuan said loudly. His body has returned to normal. He just rushed to the imperial capital last night.
No one can be calm. Nearly 500 Taoist priests from Pangshan died in Laozu Peak. This is the most serious disaster in the nine major Taoist sects in tens of thousands of years, and it is also a huge shame. When Laozu Peak collapsed, the Taoist tradition still habitually waited for the senior Taoists to solve everything. As time passed slowly, the facts solidified into an indissoluble memory, but the senior Taoists were reluctant to create the miracles that everyone expected. The lower Taoists could not sit still, which was the most important reason for them to establish the Demon Slayer Association.
Now they heard that there was actually a Taoist priest from Pangshan who survived, how could they not be extremely excited? The fighting spirit in their hearts was like wildfire, and it instantly turned into a sea of fire. Only a few people remained calm, and Yang Qingyuan was one of them. Since he was replaced by someone because of his credulity, he has become much more cautious.
"Everyone listen to me!" Yang Qingyuan raised his voice and suppressed the discussions in the yard, "If there is a Taoist priest surviving in Pangshan, we must save him, but there are several doubts about this matter. Before we figure it out, we must not act rashly."
"What doubts?" Shen Hao knew that Yang Qingyuan was not a cowardly person, but a firm supporter of the Demon Slayer Association, so he was willing to listen to his opinion.
There are more than 300 Taoists in the courtyard, all of whom returned to the Imperial Capital in the past two days. They all participated in the discussion of the Dao and the election of the generals a month ago, so they are very willing to quit the Taoist sect and join the Demon Slayer Association. This number is better than expected.
Yang Qingyuan walked to the steps and said to the crowd: "First. Although the Taoist sect has not taken the initiative to attack in recent years, it has never relaxed its surveillance on the demon clan. Why didn't it find any survivors? Second, it is said that in the last battle of Duanliu City, the demon clan used the Demon Fire Mountain to hide a large number of Taoist inner elixirs. Didn't it come from Taoist friend Pangshan? Third, Hong Futian, who delivered the news, is a non-demon casual cultivator, handed over by a beast demon talisman master. Can these people be trusted? Fourth, what do the masters and chiefs of Pangshan think of this matter? Aren't the left chief and the Shen chief in the Imperial Capital? Do they believe the intelligence of non-demons?"
The excited mood eased slightly. What Yang Qingyuan said was true, and no one could refute it. Yang Qingyuan lowered his voice, "So the most important thing is to find out the truth."
Everyone wanted to find out the truth. In a room in Wangshan Dojo, Mu Xingqiu was also asking Hong Futian similar questions.
Hong Futian looked brand new,
but the torture he had suffered was still everywhere. His hands were shaking even when he just held a cup of tea, and he was weaker than an ordinary person with a serious illness.
Yang Qingyin and Xiao Qingtao were guarding outside. There were no outsiders in the room. Hong Futian sipped a few sips of tea and spoke, "I have been walking in the land of monsters for nearly two years. I looked for the whereabouts of Yi Shijun everywhere, but he disappeared. Since Qi Wushang launched the war, no one has seen him."
Hong Futian looked at Mu Xingqiu. The only thing that the torture did not affect was his eyes. He was still as enthusiastic as before. "You are not wearing a hairpin."
"I quit Pangshan." Mu Xingqiu did not explain much.
Hong Futian was slightly stunned, then smiled, "I shouldn't be surprised, you are indeed different from ordinary Taoists." He lowered his head and thought for a while, then continued: "The strange things in the Land of Monsters are not just the disappearance of Yi Shiqun. A large number of monsters that I have never seen or heard of have come south from the extreme north, with panic on their faces, but they don't know what they are afraid of. They just say they are going to seek refuge with the Giant Monster King, and only the Giant Monster King is safe."
"The extreme north?" Mu Xingqiu noticed this word, because the extreme north of the Land of Monsters is where the Wangshan Taoist sect is located.
"Well, but I don't know much about this matter. At that time, I was thinking about Yi Shijun. I didn't understand why he disappeared, so I went to Xijie Country to see Qi Wushang, thinking that only he could explain it clearly."
Mu Xingqiu nodded, but he didn't agree in his heart. If the mysterious and weird Yi Shijun disappeared, it was most likely related to Qi Wushang. As a non-monster cultivator living among humans, it was not a wise decision for Hong Futian to go and ask the truth.
Hong Futian went there. He had a sense of mission that others could not understand. He thought that non-demons were the reconcilers between the demon race and humans, and that ancient gods were the universal weapons. When the war was in full swing, he went to visit Qi Wushang, so he did not think there would be any danger this time.
"Qi Wushang established the Demon Capital in Baizhang City. He liked the place name. He met me and claimed that he did not know the whereabouts of Yi Shijun. Then he persuaded me to stay and assist him in creating the great cause of the demon race."
"Qi Wushang's great cause is to eliminate humans and occupy all lands."
"In his view, the Shengfu Dynasty and the Twelve Princes were originally the land of the demon race." Hong Futian waved his hand, indicating that he did not want to argue about this unclear matter. "I refused because my cause is not in any one party, but to unite the forces of all parties to jointly deal with the threat of the demon race."
Hong Futian took another sip of tea and felt better. "So I was placed under house arrest. I can walk around Baizhang City at will, but I cannot leave the city." After experiencing the prison life of Longbinhui, the original house arrest seemed It's so wonderful. Hong Futian sighed softly, "I got to know many monsters in the city, including several magicians. One time, after getting drunk, a magician complained to me that every month He wants to go to Yaoshan Pass to cast a spell and trap a group of prisoners. Yaoshan Pass is the name of the Yaozu Peak, and it has become a passage. "
The Demonic Fire Mountain directly ran over the Old Ancestor Peak and opened a wide passage in the mountains. Mu Xingqiu did not see the last scene, but he could imagine what it was like there, and he couldn't help but feel tight in his heart. He felt sorry for the Old Ancestor. He has deep feelings for Feng, and his peaceful and boring practice life is now his best memory.
Hong Futian paused for a while, "I was very puzzled, so I asked him who the prisoner was, but he didn't dare to say anything. He got up and left on the pretext of being drunk. So I went directly to ask Qi Wushang, and he told me. He held the Dozens of captives will surprise the Taoists when necessary. He is very proud and declares that he will regain the same power as the Demon Fire Mountain, or even stronger. He said that Lord Yishi is the prophet of the demon clan, although he suddenly disappeared. , but I have left everything that should be left behind. I felt that it was almost impossible to persuade Qi Wushang to stop the war, so I escaped and wanted to inform Pang Shan of the news, but ended up running into a group of Fu Lu Masters..."
"How did you escape?" Mu Xingqiu interrupted Hong Futian.
"Qi Wushang went to Yaoshan Pass to gather with many demon kings and took me with him. But on the day of the official gathering, he left me on the outskirts, where the guard was relatively low. I took the opportunity to escape into the mountains, all the way east, and entered the territory of Dongjie Kingdom. . I guess Long Binhui must have been bribed by the demon king, so he sent a talisman master to block my way."
Qu Xungui did secretly collude with the demon clan, but this could not explain an important issue, "Master Fulu brought you from Dongjie Kingdom to the Imperial Capital. You were imprisoned secretly, and they did not kill you, but tortured you. They wanted to start from What do you know here?" Mu Xingqiu asked.
This is the story of Hong Futian, a non-demon cultivator. There is no more direct evidence. Whether you believe it or not depends on how the listener views Hong Futian himself.
"The high Taoist priests will use mind control techniques on you to determine whether everything you say is true."
"I understand. In fact, you can use mind control right now. I won't resist." Hong Fu said calmly.
Mu Xingqiu shook his head. Recently, he understood a truth. Even if the memories are real, they can still create illusions.
"Is my apprentice okay? Long Bin will hunt down monks all over the world. I hope he is okay."
"Ouyang Shu is in the imperial capital. He is fine. You will see him in the future."
Hong Futian smiled slightly and said, "No rush. If you can, please help me get an ancient god statue. I haven't been with it for a long time, but it has not forgotten me, so I can sit here and drink tea."
Mu Xingqiu took out the statue of Master Pan from the treasure bag and handed it over.
Hong Futian was extremely surprised. He took the statue and stared at Mu Xingqiu without saying anything for a long time.
Mu Xingqiu turned around and left the house.
At the door, Yang Qingyin stared ahead, listening to the noise in the front yard. She kept this posture and hadn't moved for a long time. When Mu Xingqiu came out, she didn't respond. Only Xiao Qingtao asked in a low voice: "How is it?"
"I believe him, but he could still be deceived by Qi Wushang."
"Things are not good." Yang Qingyin suddenly said, "No one wants to leave the Taoist tradition and join the Demon Slayer Club."
Xiao Qingtao also heard the sound in the front yard, "Yes, if Pangshan Taoist priest really survives in Laozu Peak, the high-level Taoist priests will definitely take action, and there will be no need to set up a demon-slaying guild."
Mu Xingqiu strode to the front yard. As soon as he showed up, the crowd rushed over and asked questions. Shen Hao and others persuaded everyone to be quiet, and then Yang Qingyuan spoke. www.ansh.c They were outside After much debate, a prototype of the plan was drawn up.
"Are there really any survivors in Pangshan?"
"I think it's very possible."
"If high-level Taoist priests join the war, do we still need to form a demon-slaying association?"
Mu Xingqiu was about to open his mouth to answer when his eyes were suddenly attracted by a piece of void on the roof. There was nothing there, but he felt powerful magic power.
A Taoist priest appeared out of thin air. Mu Xingqiu did not recognize him, but he was sure that he was a Taoist priest from a certain Taoist tradition.
Taoist priests appeared in the air one after another, fifteen of them in total. All the Taoist priests in the imperial capital arrived, including Zuo Liuying. Everyone on the ground saw it and shut up in unison.
There was silence in the courtyard. The low-level Taoist priests had never seen so many big shots appear at the same time. Suddenly, everyone felt a heavy pressure and began to feel that their behavior was a nonsense, and their faces turned red with shame. .
