Who is behind the scenes?

There are two possibilities, one is that the mastermind behind the scenes is an immortal family with a very high status, Yuqing and Taiqing have to obey the orders of this person, but this possibility is not very likely, because although the three sects worship the Great Dao, they have their own subordinates, that is, the Da Luo Jin Immortal also has its own faction, and the will passed down by the Da Luo Jin Immortal of the Yuqing Sect will not necessarily be followed by the Taoists of the Taiqing Sect, although they should obey it according to the law of heavenly return.

There is also a possibility that the mastermind behind this scene is not one person, but a group of people, among whom are the high-level immortals of Yuqing and Taiqing, who respectively passed down their wills and instructed the people of the two sects to join forces.

If you think about it, the second possibility is more likely.

At present, the clues are still insufficient, it is very difficult to forcibly deduce, and it is easy to go astray, so this matter can only be put aside for a while, and then make plans when the situation is clearer.

It can be seen that Lu Pingchuan wants to ask the two to stay in the army to help, and the fat man also has this intention, but Nanfeng has never expressed his position, and he is entangled in trivial matters, so it is obviously not appropriate to stay here.

The reason why he didn't refuse immediately was because of Lu Pingchuan's affection, the eldest brother needed help, and he couldn't stand by as a brother.

The fat man didn't pay attention to Nanfeng and never said anything, but Lu Pingchuan found out, "This matter has little to do with me, don't be reluctant." ”

"Reluctantly," the fat man smacked his tongue and tilted his head, "Hey, hey, take care of your birds, Lao Bai has half a life left, and he still tosses it." ”

Nanfeng turned his head when he heard the sound, the eighth master was originally pulling Lao Bai's ears, but when he saw Nanfeng turning his head, he immediately tilted his head to the side, pretending to be innocent.

Nanfeng retracted his gaze and said, "Big brother, my own brother, I won't circle with you, it's really inconvenient for me to stay in the army, but it's not appropriate to leave like this, it's better to do this, the fat man and I try to help General Yang and General Chen get rid of those people who make demon laws, and leave the rest to them to deal with." ”

Lu Pingchuan nodded again and again when he heard this, only saying that it was the best, Nanfeng did not say to help him, but emphasized that he was helping Yang Yan and Chen Baxian, and this is exactly the case, this matter has nothing to do with him, but it is not big, Nanfeng and the fat man can help get rid of those Yiren who know demon law, it is already a great favor for them, and it is a bit too much to ask for anything else, after all, the two of them have nothing else to ask for, just to help him in the face.

According to Lu Pingchuan's original intention, he wanted to introduce Yang Yan and Chen Baxian to the two, but Nanfeng shook his head and refused, he didn't want to have too much intersection with these two, even if he had a one-sided relationship, he didn't want to stay, the reason was simple, Chen Ba was rescued by him first, if Chen Baxian became the emperor and then poisoned the living beings was his sin, if there was really that day, he could only correct this mistake with his own hands.

At dawn, the three stopped talking, Nanfeng was reluctant to meet the two generals, so the fat man could only accompany him to live in the city, and Lu Pingchuan returned to the army.

The army always tries to stabilize the morale, the grain and grass always have to send people to respond, the tired and hungry soldiers always need a period of time to recuperate, the grain and grass are sent at noon the next day, the grain team sends grain once every half a month, and every time the grain and grass are transported before, the army sends people out of the mountains to meet them, this time the grain team has not been in contact with the army, and can only work in the city outside the mountain.

These soldiers are too hungry and have already lost their vitality, and they can't recover in ten days and half a month, Nanfeng is a little anxious, he doesn't want to wait here for so long.

If you want to leave early, you can take the initiative to go to Dragon Weaving City, find those Yi people who can use demon magic, and get rid of them.

Just when the south wind was considering whether to take the initiative to go, he found that there were a lot of alien breaths two hundred miles away in the south, and these aliens were some large animals domesticated by humans, relatively concentrated, and were moving here.

The two armies were fighting, both had Tanma, and the Liang army's escape from the predicament may have been detected by the enemy's Tanma and reported to the rebel high-level, if nothing else, the enemy army should have sent troops to encircle and suppress it while the Liang army was weak.

In addition to transporting grain and grass, the grain team will also transport baggage and horses, the Liang army got the war horse, so it sent spies, in the evening, the spies sent back the news, the enemy soldiers are divided into two roads, 5,000 cavalry westward detour, trying to outflank and cut off the retreat of the Liang army, and 10,000 infantry take the main road to attack head-on, in addition to the soldiers, there are many riding giant elephants and rhinoceros in different clothes.

When the news came back, a cadre of generals and colonels immediately gathered together to discuss urgent countermeasures, the so-called countermeasures are nothing more than whether to fight or run, if the enemy army comes with 35,000 people, there is no need to sum up, just run away, and it will definitely not be able to fight.

But at this time, the enemy only sent 5,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry, and the soldiers were divided into two ways, this period of Liang army needed to face only 10,000 enemy troops, Liang army 30,000 against the enemy 10,000, the opportunity is rare, if not fighting, it is a pity.

The generals were inclined to fight, but they were not sure whether the enemy was really careless, or if they deliberately sent only 10,000 soldiers to hold them back.

Nanfeng lived in a large mansion in the city, which had previously been inhabited by a wealthy family, and fled in a hurry when the war came, leaving most of the household utensils and belongings.

Lu Pingchuan came to find Nanfeng and the fat man, and only said that the two generals asked them to go over to discuss the matter.

When Lu Pingchuan came, Nanfeng was writing in front of the table, and the fat man was sitting on the side and drinking tea with his legs crossed.

Nanfeng naturally wouldn't go to meet Yang Yan and Chen Baxian, but in fact, Yang Yan and Chen Baxian also knew that he wouldn't go, and the reason why they sent Lu Pingchuan over was just to make sure what he and the fat man could help if there was a war.

Nanfeng's answer was also simple, "Big brother, you go back and tell them that no matter whether you fight or withdraw, you don't need to worry about those Yi people who know demon law." ”

Lu Pingchuan nodded, Nanfeng's meaning was very clear, he was only responsible for those left demons that the Liang army couldn't deal with, and he wouldn't participate in the fight.

"In your opinion, do you want to fight or not?" asked Lu Pingchuan.

"I'm an outsider and don't help people with ideas. Nanfeng smiled, enthusiasm is naturally not a disadvantage, but it is not an advantage, it can only be regarded as temperament, and the idea has to be taken by the person in question, because whoever takes the idea has to bear the consequences.

"Big brother asked you if you would fight, what are you doing with all this?" the fat man interjected.

"It's okay to fight or not. Nanfeng put aside the brush, lit the half-painted yellow paper with a lamp and candle, put it in a copper basin and burned it, and then picked up one again and re-painted, he was drawing the tortoiseshell veins, and he kept the cracked veins of the tortoiseshell in mind, but it was not easy to draw it, and it was necessary to ensure accuracy and no deviation.

"To say it is to say nothing. The fat man glanced at Nanfeng, and then handed the full teacup to Lu Pingchuan, "Big brother, do you want to fight?"

Lu Pingchuan took the teacup and shook his head, "Morale is already low, if you withdraw your troops again, I'm afraid you will not be able to form an army." ”

"Then hit. The fat man said.

"Good. Lu Pingchuan put down the teacup and stood up straight.

"Big brother, sit down a little longer, I'll give you something. Nanfeng said.

Hearing this, Lu Pingchuan sat down again, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"I've asked you several times, where did you get Zhuge ?" The fat man asked, yesterday he asked Zhuge Chanjuan's whereabouts, Nanfeng has not answered positively, and the more Nanfeng doesn't say it, the more confused he becomes.

Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Nanfeng didn't bother to hide it from him anymore, "There was a quarrel." ”

"Why?" asked the fat man, puzzled.

Nanfeng just wanted to answer, but the fat man preemptively said, "Don't tell me anything and talk a long story." ”

Nanfeng was helpless, so he could only briefly say what happened before, Lu Pingchuan is not an outsider, what the fat man can know, Lu Pingchuan can also know.

After Nanfeng finished speaking, the fat man smacked his tongue again and again, his relationship with Zhuge Chanjuan was better, but Zhuge Chanjuan did not do too well in this matter, and Yuan Anning's temperament was too strong, thinking about it, he couldn't say who should be blamed for this.

"Do you like Yuan Anning or not?" the fat man asked.

"I don't hate her. "Southwind tells the truth.

"That's like it, go back and talk to Zhuge and marry together. "The fat man has an idea.

"Do you think Zhuge Chanjuan is twelve?" Nanfeng said in his mouth, and his hands did not stop.

"You know all about it?" the fat man scoffed.

Nanfeng ignored him, picked up the painted yellow paper and blew it dry.

"This is the crack in the tortoiseshell?" the fat man guessed what Nanfeng was drawing.

Nanfeng nodded, put the yellow paper in his hand and the other two drawn yellow papers together, and then picked up the talisman pen again and wrote quickly.

The fat man took the three pieces of yellow paper and looked at them one by one, "Don't say it, these bars are really like martial arts moves." ”

"Don't mess with the flowers, give it to the big brother. Nanfeng said.

The fat man was just curious when he looked at the yellow paper, but he wasn't very interested, so he handed it to Lu Pingchuan casually.

Nanfeng said when he wrote, "Big brother, you keep these three pieces of yellow paper, outsiders don't know that the cracks on the tortoise shell are martial arts moves, and you don't tell others, I will write the Taiqing Sect's qi practice method to you, both internal and external, over time, it is not invincible in the world, and it is enough to settle down." ”

Lu Pingchuan was not polite, took the yellow paper and said with a smile, "Dip your light, thank you for your blessing." ”

"Big brother, what did you say, if it weren't for you and eldest sister, we would have starved to death. The fat man answered.

"That's what the fat man said. The south wind chimed in.

In addition to the eight true scriptures of Taixuan, Nanfeng wrote them down silently, and after confirming that they were correct, they were handed over to Lu Pingchuan.

Lu Pingchuan was anxious to go back and send a message, so he hurriedly went.

When Lu Pingchuan walked away, the fat man retracted his gaze and asked in a low voice, "Why do you only give three to the eldest brother?"

The fat man didn't know that Yan Feixue gave him a rubbing, that is, he didn't count that one, he also had five pieces of tortoise shell in his hand, and he only drew three to Lu Pingchuan.

"Three are the most suitable. Nanfeng said, the fat man is not without scheming, if he really has no scheming, these words will be asked in front of Lu Pingchuan.

"Huh?" the fat man frowned.

"The eldest brother is different from the two of us, he is too ambitious, if you give him all the cracks, I am afraid it will hurt him. Nanfeng said.

The fat man didn't understand what Nanfeng meant for a while, and only after thinking about it did he figure it out, "Are you worried that he wants to be the emperor after he is invincible?"

"Big brother can't do it?" Nanfeng asked rhetorically.

The fat man didn't answer, as Nanfeng said, Lu Pingchuan is very affectionate, but Lu Pingchuan's ambition is indeed very big, if the strength is so strong that no one can restrain it, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not seek government and usurp the throne.

"Alas. The fat man sighed.

Nanfeng knew what the fat man was thinking, so he said, "We can't control what the eldest brother wants to do, as long as he treats us as brothers, let's treat him as a big brother, that's enough." ”

"yes. The fat man nodded slowly, and asked with a shy smile, "By the way, if I want, how many will you give me?"

"Nature is all for you. Nanfeng said casually.

"What if you want it, big sister?" asked the fat man again.

"That depends on the specific situation," Nanfeng cleaned up the study, "Don't talk about this, they will definitely not retreat, it is estimated that there will be a war in the second half of the night, hurry up and rest, help them deal with those barbarian demons, and leave here early." ”

"Good. The fat man stood upright.

"By the way, have you ever practiced the eight golden bodies to the fifth level?" Nan Feng asked, the Buddhist Qi Cultivation Method is not the same as the Taoism, the eight golden bodies can withstand the attacks of ordinary purple qi real people when they practice to the fifth level, but they still can't fly through the air, they have to practice to the sixth level.

"It's done. The fat man nodded.

As soon as Nanfeng wanted to answer, there was a scream outside the city, which should have come from the military camp, and if he listened carefully, there was a faint shout of a protective general.

"It seems that the enemy is stealing the camp. The fat man walked out, looked at it a few times, and then looked back eagerly, "It's not an enemy army, it's a master of the cave abyss." ”

"Those demons have purple qi masters?" the south wind walked out quickly.

"I don't even have a mountain, where does the purple qi come from, this assassin is not a Yiren, hurry up, go over and take a look......"
