Chapter 569: Taoist Meeting
Wang Chao even thought of another aspect!
When he took Qin Xuan to forcibly rush into battle, it caused a lot of movement,
The enemy hiding in the shadows must have noticed his arrival as well!
The opponent has not launched a full-scale attack for so many days, and it is likely that he is waiting for an opportunity, and this opportunity has a great probability of being his own ......
If that happens, it may not be long before the enemy will launch a real attack!
Thinking of this, Wang Chao hurriedly looked up and saw that Ruheng in front of him had already walked away, so he came to Qin Xuan's side and said softly
"Okay, don't think about it so much, let's go to your master first, no matter what she wants you to do, or what choice you want to make, I will support you!"
"Thank you!" Qin Xuan glanced back at Wang Chao gratefully, then exhaled and followed!
At this time, in the council hall behind the Taoist temple,
A room of dozens of old Taoists wearing various Taoist robes were sitting on the futon on the ground, surrounding a female Taoist in the middle, as if they were in a strange formation!
It's just that these dozens of Taoists all have their eyes slightly closed and their faces are solemn, but no one speaks, and in this temporary meeting hall, the air is as if it has frozen, and you can smell the pins dropping!
Qin Xuan's master Dingyi Zhenren was also among them, sitting in the position opposite the central female Taoist, and like everyone else, she was also caught in the middle of the meditation!
With the status of Dingyi Zhenren, he can't sit in the center, if nothing else, the female Taoist in the center must be the master of this generation, the junior sister of Dingyi Zhenren: Dingzhen Zhenren!
After a long time, the real person in the center suddenly let out a long breath, then slowly opened his eyes, looked around, and said softly
"Okay, let's stop here for today's evening class! Now it's time to think about the situation that our Taoist temple is currently encountering!
Now that the army is stationed outside the city, do you have anything to say?"
Everyone also opened their eyes, and after a period of silence, a male Taoist took the lead in speaking
"For today's plan, first of all, we have to find out what the treasure mentioned by the other party is!
The other party is so sure that we have this treasure, and it is related to the legendary grandmaster, I think there should be solid evidence!
Although they have been keeping this evidence secret and refusing to show it to others, it is not child's play that the seven countries jointly send troops.
So I would like to ask the Viewer if there was anything that the previous Viewer mentioned before he stepped down, or was there anything missing?"
Dingzhen Zhenren sighed lightly when he heard this
"I've said this many times before, there is no such so-called treasure in the Taoist temple, and there is no secret law above the grandmaster.
As for the other party's reason, I think it's just trying to hide people's eyes!
If there really is such a treasure, how can we people be trapped in the current realm and cannot break through for decades?"
The male Taoist was unwilling to say
"But according to the news we have inquired and the rumors on the rivers and lakes, the other party is indeed under such a banner, and for this reason, it has also gathered a large number of peak martial artists who are deeply trapped in the realm!
If it turns out to be a deception in the end, the counterattack of these people alone is enough to make the Seven Royal Families anxious!
Why would they do such a thankless task?"
This time, Dingzhen Zhenren did not rush to explain, but turned his head to look at Dingyi Zhenren who was directly opposite and asked
"Senior sister, before answering this question, I would like to ask, what realm are you now, senior sister, have you ever reached the level of the grandmaster?"
As soon as the words came out, everyone immediately turned their attention to Dingyi Zhenren,
Feeling the convergence of his eyes, Dingyi Zhenren let out a slight breath and said
"Half a step away!
After hearing the first four words, everyone's eyes lit up, but at the end, they began to shake their heads and sigh again!
Most of the people present have almost reached such a state, the only difference is that for different people, this so-called half-step is also different!
But as the other party said, no matter how long or short this half step is, even if there is only a distance left in the hair, it is as far away as a stream!
At this time, Dingzhen Zhenzhen opened his mouth and replied
"Among us, Senior Sister's talent is the best, and her cultivation is also the hardest!
At the same time, with the importance that the master attached to the senior sister back then, if there is really such a treasure, the first to benefit must be the senior sister.
Now that she has not broken through to the top of the grandmaster, it can only show that there is no such treasure in the Taoist temple!"
The male Taoist who asked the question was silent for a while, and with his understanding of Dingyi Zhenren, it was impossible for the other party to lie about this kind of thing!
Dingzhen looked around again
"Now that the other party's army is pressing the border, forcing us to hand over what does not exist, its purpose is obvious,
What we need to do now is to find a way to deal with it!
Although the Taoist temple pays attention to purity and inaction, but it is so oppressed on our heads, we should have fought to the death with them to the end, even if the jade is burned, we must let them understand our power.
But there are too many innocent ordinary people in this city, people in the Taoist temple, for the survival of the Taoist temple, even if the liver and brain are smeared, it is understandable, I think you have the same idea as me!
It is only a war that belongs to us, but it should not involve ordinary people! Therefore, the most important thing at present is to find a way to force the other side to withdraw its troops, or let these ordinary people leave the city first, otherwise, when the war breaks out, there will be heavy casualties and human lives!"
"It's difficult! it's difficult!" As soon as Dingzhen's voice fell, a person next to him suddenly spoke
"The other party's current actions did not show the slightest rumor in advance, before this, except for a small number of top decision-making levels, most of them were just regarded as an ordinary training!
It wasn't until after the Seven Kingdoms converged and the soldiers came to the city that they finally learned about the other party's plan!
To be able to do this, the other party must have made careful preparations and detailed work in advance! The purpose is to prevent us from being perceived, so as to make corresponding countermeasures.
From this, it is not difficult to guess that these ordinary people in the city are even within the other party's plan!
intends to use the lives of these ordinary people as a threat to force us to comply!
Therefore, unless we go out of the city and surrender, I am afraid it will be difficult to protect the lives of these ordinary people!"
"It's impossible!"
"It is impossible to surrender, otherwise after a hundred years of poor Taoism, what kind of face will there be to meet the patriarchs of the Taoist Temple?"
"That is, it is better to break the jade than to be complete! It's a big deal to fight with them, and it's not certain who will win or lose......
Before the other party finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion around him, obviously disagreeing with the previous Taoist statement,
"Quiet !!"
Hearing the quarrel around him, Dingzhen Zhenren, who was sitting in the center, suddenly let out a low shout!
After the crowd quieted down, he said with an unkind face
"It's all a handful of old people, what kind of system is it to be noisy, and the Tao for so many years has naturally been learned from dogs?"
When his breath calmed down, he said: "If surrender can solve the problem in front of us, then why should we have such a senseless battle of will with the other party!"
The wolf ambition of the other side is obviously not just as simple as just wanting us to surrender, there must be more vicious plans!
The thousand-year-old foundation of Taoism cannot be buried in our hands, and if the other party insists on forcing us, we can only fight to the death with them!"
