In the 149th round, the officials and bandits of the dangerous peak colluded to hold hostages and forced the palace

Qin Xi, the little dragon with reverse scales, couldn't help it, and after affirming a series of statements from Dongfang Zhengde of the Nine Clouds and Cranes, he finally asked what he doubted, and pointed the finger at the mastermind behind the thieves such as the Five Poison Sect. As soon as this question was raised, of course, it was also responded to by a group of heroes of all ages, and everyone refocused their attention on Dongfang Zhengde, just waiting for the highly respected head of the Stacked Cloud View to give a clear statement, who knew that in the face of this core issue, even the dignified Nine Clouds and Cranes frowned.

"It's really worthy of Shaochen's virtuous nephew, he really sees the essence of the problem, yes, about this mysterious mastermind behind the scenes, the old man has been paying attention to him for a long time. Not only Stacked Cloud View, but also Shaolin, Kunlun, Lotus, and even many masters of Heaven and Earth were also in frequent correspondence with the old man during this time, questioning who was manipulating everything behind this. Don't hide it from you, in fact, after the accident at Qingchengmen a few months ago, the old man had contact with many portals of the five sects and eight sects, and also met with several sect masters, and even sent disciples to visit and investigate, from the big river and ocean thieves to the big envoys of the feudal towns, but after all, they found nothing....... I am ashamed to say that I Dongfang Zhengde has been wandering the rivers and lakes for more than 70 years, and I can't even see what kind of force is standing behind this group of thieves......." Dongfang Zhengde shook his head and sighed.

Such an answer, of course, is not what everyone expects, but it is a pity that at such a time and on such an occasion, what can the heroes of all ages and young people here say? Qin Xi gritted his teeth hatefully, and spoke in his heart: Yes, after making trouble for a long time, your dignified Stacked Cloud Viewer also knows nothing about this child behind the scenes, and it is no wonder that the Emei Zhengzong under your rule is now chaotic like this bear, people are in the dark, you are in the light, you are the so-called golden immortal on the clouds, it is really no different from being blind with your eyes open.

"Dongfang Sect Master doesn't have to blame himself, this matter is definitely not your responsibility........" After a moment of silence, Master Huihai, the second master of Shaolin, stood up and said to Dongfang Zhengde, "Before Lao Wei came out of Shaomu Mountain this time, he also discussed with a group of senior brothers, this time the opponent is far from being as simple as an ordinary martial arts scum, what is hidden behind this may be a person far beyond our imagination, Lao Wei also heard that those thieves have already released their words, and even Fenglin Lao Jianzun is not in their eyes, can have such a magical power to make waves, of course, we will not be easy to find." According to the old man's opinion, why don't we see the demolition and demolition of the troops, and the water will cover the ground, let's first resolve the current dispute, and then see what they decide!"

The head of the three elders, Yan Bosuo Gai Yuntian, also continued: "Yes, Dongfang Gate Palm, although the thieves are fierce this time, but our lineup is also extraordinary, the old man expected, at this time, there must be a lot of martial arts on the way to Mount Emei, waiting for the dispute together, perhaps, even Fenglin Old Jianzun will be shaken, if he has to come forward with the old man, he will not worry about the thieves." I just hope that in this fierce battle, I don't want to involve the innocent people of Limin........"

The statement of the two old-timers was immediately agreed by everyone, and everyone talked about it again, saying that they wanted to find a way to minimize the impact of this dispute.

Just when everyone's discussion was in full swing, the little Taoist priest guarding the door suddenly hurriedly walked into the hall to report: "Senior Brother Xu Xiao has an urgent matter to ask to see the head of the door!"

Jiuxiao Yunhe was immediately summoned, the time was not big, and a person walked in outside the door, but he saw that this person was seven feet tall and hung zero, aged around fifty years old, with a nine-beam scarf on his head, a piece of beautiful jade on the top beam door, a red face, red phoenix eyes, a high nose bridge, Fang Haikou, and three strands of beard fluttering in front of his heart. Wearing a gray cloth arrow sleeve robe, a silk silk tie around the waist, squatting crotch trousers, fast boots, and a three-foot long sword behind his back, as the person walked quickly, the lantern spike on the hilt of the sword was trembling and abrupt.

Xiao Youlong can see clearly, if it weren't for the fact that this person was in a bit of a hurry, Zhou could really be said to be magnificent, and it was not difficult to know from the report of the person on the door that this person should be the proud man of the Nine Clouds and Cranes, and the people in the rivers and lakes called "Shaohua Sword Immortal" Xu Xiao Xu Daochang.

Although it was the first time they met, Qin Xi had already heard about this "Shaohua Sword Immortal". Today's martial arts, why Emei Zhengzong is so prosperous, the reason is, of course, that in recent years, the Emei faction has given birth to many influential figures in the rivers and lakes, among them, especially the "Five Sword Immortals" of the Stacked Cloud View headed by the Nine Clouds and Cranes are the most well-known. Dongfang Zhengde is not only strong in martial arts, ranking sixth in the list of eighteen people in Huotianlu, but also his four major personal disciples, such as Liang Wenguang, nicknamed "Feiyun Sword Immortal", the second disciple Jiang Wenhuan, nicknamed "Lingyin Sword Immortal", the third disciple Gongye Wenfei, nicknamed "Huanglong Sword Immortal", and the fourth disciple Xu Xiao, nicknamed "Shaohua Sword Immortal", each has a unique art and is well-known throughout the martial arts, among them, three of them are the same as Dongfang Zhengde, on the list of Huotianlu, and the world is powerful.

When he first came to this Er'e Peak, the Nine Heavens and Cranes explained clearly, this Shaohua Sword Immortal and his third senior brother Huanglong Sword Immortal Gongye Wenfei led people to Da'e Mountain to confront the Five Poisons Sect and other thieves, two such heavyweights, it stands to reason that they should have enough deterrence for thieves, so, this Xu Xiao suddenly came back at this time, could it be that things have progressed? Looking at his hurried face, everyone knew that it was not so simple.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, heroes, this is polite!" Xu Xiao stood still in the room, bowed deeply to everyone, and then turned to his master Dongfang Zhengde and said: "Master, something happened, there is bad news under Dae Mountain, the thieves and the officials and soldiers have captured the people as hostages, and they want to force us to give up Dae Mountain, otherwise, we will let the people lead the way to attack the mountain!"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, this Shaohua Sword Immortal said a few words, but for everyone, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day! A group of heroes of all ages were stunned for a moment, and then they hit the top beam door one after another, and even the high-ranking old-timers such as the Nine Clouds and Cranes, the Three Elders of Xiaoyao and the two Shaolin monks were also upside down with their sword eyebrows upside down and their eyes wide open. Only then did everyone understand that the previous worries were still too conservative, and the enemy's methods were far more cruel than that.

As soon as this blockbuster news was thrown, of course everyone didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly pretended to go with Xu Xiao to find out, and Dongfang Zhengde immediately organized the people around him, leaving only a dozen disciples to guard the lower courtyard of the stacked cloud temple, and the rest of the people rushed to Da'e Mountain.

Along the rugged mountain road, everyone is mighty and briskly walking, Shaohua Sword Immortal Xu Xiao in front of the head while leading the way, while introducing the situation for everyone, at this time, the sky has been bright, under the illumination of the rising sun, the scenery of the foothills of Emei Mountain has added a few minutes of Lingyu Xiu, especially the big Emei Mountain, is the main peak of the whole Emei Mountain, the mountains are undulating, the heavy rocks are stacked and green, the circling stone path surrounds it, it is really like a ladder to the sky. However, at such a juncture, where do you still have the heart to enjoy such a beautiful scenery, one by one, they are cooking in oil, and they can't wait to rush to the destination with their wings.

About half an hour later, everyone finally came to the place of the accident, this is the Xuanwu top at the western foot of Dae Mountain, it is a dangerous peak on Dae Mountain, Huanglong Sword Immortal Gongye Wenfei and dozens of Dieyun Guanmen people are anxiously waiting here, when they see everyone coming, everyone hurriedly catches up.

As soon as he arrived at this Xuanwu Peak, Xiaoyou Long Qin Xi couldn't help but tremble immediately, this place is too steep, there is a mountain peak behind him, and less than five steps away in front of him is a cliff, at a glance, there is really a kind of top-heavy horror and dizziness, which makes people shudder. But now, Qin Xi had to have the courage to look down, because from that position, he just had a clear view of the situation of the thieves under the mountain.

I saw that the location at the foot of the mountain had already gathered a large number of people, and it was not difficult to judge from the dress, many portals of Emei Authentic Sect had gathered there, and among them, the officials and soldiers of the Shu State, the Five Poison Sect and the Lower Five Sects of Thieves and Kou could be seen. The most shocking thing is that those officers and soldiers who are armed to the teeth actually escort hundreds of ordinary people to the front! Those ordinary people who are flat-headed are all tied up with flowers, and among them there are quite a few old and weak women and children, and under the constant shouting and drinking of the officers and men, they let out bursts of frightened wails.

"How's the situation?" Nine Clouds and Cranes came to the third disciple Gongye Wen Fei and asked.

"All of them are the people of nearby villages and towns, many of them are pilgrims who often go to the mountains to make incense, and when I and the fourth junior brother arrived here, it was already this situation, Master, you look at the banners of those officers and soldiers in their ranks, that is the banner of recruiting generals, this time the officers and soldiers leading the team are the fierce generals Zhang Si'an under the command of Zhang Qianzhao, the general of the current Great Shu Kingdom, it seems that the thieves are going to completely level my Emei Mountain this time!" Gongye Wenfei replied with a nervous face, this Huanglong Sword Immortal, who looked to be in his fifties, was wearing a navy blue robe, and his original appearance was quite old and dignified because of this situation, and the sword hanging from his waist seemed to be ready to be unsheathed at any time.

"Master, the thieves just said that we should give up Da'e Mountain within two hours, and they will climb up to officially contact us, if they don't, the officials and soldiers will use the people as shields and forcibly attack the mountain! This Da'e Mountain is the most important barrier of my Emei Mountain, if we give up to the thieves like this, I will be in danger of stacking clouds!" Shaohua Sword Immortal Xu Xiao also said on the side.

The words of the two disciples made Dongfang Zhengde fall into hard thought, indeed, anyone can see that the thief's move is too ruthless, they know that the terrain of Mount Emei is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they actually adopted the strategy of taking the people hostage to force the palace, this hand is not only for the sake of bloodless soldiers, but also to completely trap this righteous Dongfang Zhengde in the unrighteous place, if you can't come up with a way as soon as possible, the situation will become more and more passive, more and more difficult.

However, after all, he is also a person, no matter how high his status in the rivers and lakes is, how strong his martial arts are, how can he not frown in the face of such a difficult choice?

Gongye Wenfei and Xu Xiao were right, if they agreed to the request of the group of Kou to give up Da'e Mountain, it would be tantamount to giving up the most dangerous barrier of Mount Emei, and when the group of thieves climbed the dangerous peak, how could they be able to reasonably contact the heroes according to their momentum? At that time, they would send troops to attack on a large scale, and it would only be a matter of time before they annihilated everyone in one fell swoop and completely captured the Stacked Cloud Temple. But if they don't agree, the group of Kou has so many people as meat shields, even if they are slowly approaching the mountain, how can Dongfang Zhengde order to send troops to block it? At this time, the Nine Clouds and Cranes really hate to have the urge to jump off the cliff and get rid of it, and the old Taoist priest endured it several times, but in the end he endured it, and the more this time came, the more he could not be impulsive, whether it was the Stacked Cloud View or Baoding, he must not just wait for the thieves to come and plunder! Time is pressing, and he must come up with a perfect method within two hours.

At this moment, two of the people in the group of people under the mountain rode horses and whips to the front of the team, and everyone raised their eyes to take a look, and saw that one of them was a bright armor and silver helmet, a draped one, holding a pair of bright and long purple gold melons in his hand, and at first glance he was a fierce general.

And when the image of another person came into view, Dongfang Zhengde and the others couldn't help but exclaim in unison, there is no doubt that the appearance of this person surprised everyone. At present, the initiative of this situation seems to have fallen into the hands of thieves, so what do these two people intend to do this time.........
