Chapter 238: The Dragon's Head
The various factions in Qingcheng Mountain have a deep grudge against Longhu Mountain, and when they hear their foul language, how can they back down? At the moment, they sneered at each other violently and scolded each other. In an instant, the saber rattled and the trigger was imminent.
Mao Ziyuan clasped his hands together and said loudly: "Amitabha! The demon gate demon is cunning and slippery, and every step must have a plan. They killed Master Huizhen, I'm afraid it was just to make us fight among ourselves. Everyone was shocked by his "lion's roar" of Buddhism, and all of them were surging with blood.
Xu Xian's heart sank, this guy's true qi was really strong, no wonder even Lin Lingsu was jealous of him back then. I also heard him say: "The eight most taboo words in marching and fighting are 'dragons without leaders' and 'becoming handsome in battle'." Everyone abandoned their previous suspicions and worked together to come to this most dangerous polar region of the North Sea, just to kill the demons and return the world to Qingning. If the internal strife is chaotic at this time, let alone besieging the 'City That Never Sleeps', it will not be easy to even return to the Great Song Dynasty alive. ”
Everyone remembered the previous "Battle of the Misty Sea", and their hearts were related, and the noise gradually became smaller. But I heard someone laugh and said, "When did Master Mao become so proficient in the art of war?" Could it be that before the trip, he had already planned that Master Huizhen would encounter an accident, so he didn't recite Buddhist scriptures and military books, just waiting to lead the three armies at this moment and replace him? Admire, admire. ”
When Xu Xian heard the voice, he became angry. The person who spoke was dressed in green clothes and feathers, carrying double swords, and with a cold smile on his white face, it was the Qingcheng "Tiangang Sword" Bai Bi who had fought fiercely with him on the boat back then. This guy is greedy and mean, and his words are as sharp and cruel as his swordsmanship.
Mao Ziyuan was not angry, and said lightly: "Ten thousand laws return to the sect, those who can read the Buddhist scriptures, let alone the military book?" However, the 'mind reading technique' of the white master is really powerful, and it can be pushed from his own heart to the hearts of people, so that there is no way to hide the thoughts of the demon barrier. Ashamed, ashamed. ”
The dragon and tiger Taoist priests laughed, Bai Bi's face changed slightly, and he was about to ridicule each other, and a long and thin Tsing Yi Taoist priest next to him dragged him, smiled, and said: "Master Mao's words are sharp, famous all over the world, if you talk about Zen today, Du Chuihua should serve you as the first." But to be the 'dragon head' who leads the group and kills demons, it is by virtue of the word 'virtue'. But as far as Buddhism is concerned, Master Kuhui of Jinshan Temple, Elder Mingyuan of Emei, Master Zonghui of Baiyun Zen Academy, and Elder Dashi of Tiantai are all here today, and each of them is highly respected, not necessarily under Master Mao, right? ”
Mao Ziyuan smiled and said, "Master Du misunderstood. With the meager virtue and ability, how dare you compare with your predecessors? As I said, the most taboo thing about marching and fighting is 'becoming handsome in battle'. In today's Taoist and Buddhist sects, how many people can be counted? At present, if you want to immediately relaunch a 'dragon head' that convinces everyone, I am afraid that it will not be easy, but it is better to respond to all changes with the same, and everything is as usual. ”
Everyone was stunned, and Bai Bi sneered: "Master Huizhen has passed away, dare to ask how to 'business as usual'?" Is it possible to ask her soul for 'helping'? ”
Mao Ziyuan shook his head and said: "Master Huizhen is expected to return, not only because of her personal virtue and ability, but also because for more than 100 years, Cihang Jingzhai has led Buddhism and the world to the heart. Although she has passed away now, Cihang is still in Jingzhai, and the new head should take over the position of 'dragon head'......"
His eyes burned as he looked at Bai Yu Toad, and said loudly: "Before Master Huizhen passed away, I personally saw her pass on the 'Heart Sword' to her disciple - Bai Yu Toad Bai Gongzi. Since Master Huizhen trusts him so much, what reason do we have not to follow his sword and continue to slay demons? ”
There was a loud uproar all around, and Bai Yuchan let out a low cry of "ah", his cheeks flushed, as if he didn't expect him to highlight this statement. Xu Xian was also surprised, and his thoughts flew around, what is the purpose of this guy's selection of Bai Yuchan?
Yi Shuihan squinted his eyes and looked up and down, as if he felt that Bai Yuchan was extremely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he sneered and said, "Master Suxin, isn't the head of Cihang Jingzhai a nun, when did he become a man?" A turbid world has eyebrows, with a group of monks and nuns, hehe, wonderful, wonderful. ”
Listening to his words, it seemed that he meant something else, Qunni's faces were all red, ashamed and angry, Su Xinshi raised his eyebrows, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a soft voice and said lightly: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform." There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust? Guanyin Bodhisattva is also male and female, free and invisible, why does the head of Cihang Jingzhai have to be a woman? ”
The group of Ni was overjoyed and shouted one after another: "Senior sister! Following the prestige, a white-clothed nun about forty years old flew by the wind, floated in front of Bai Yuchan, smiled slightly, and said, "Senior Brother Bai, I already know everything about the master." Tired of you, wronged. ”
Bai Yuchan's eyes turned red, tears almost gushed out of his eyes again, he picked up the "Heartwash Sword", and said in a low voice: "Senior sister, it's good for you to come back!" Master passed this sword on to me, but the situation forced me to do so. Since the senior sister is safe and sound, you should be in charge......"
The nun shook her head, handed the hilt of the sword back to her hand, and said, "Buddha nature does not distinguish between north and south, how can it be divided between men and women?" Since you have entered my door, you are my disciple of Cihang, and no matter what your background is, all beings are equal. After a pause, Qiu Bo looked around at Qunni and said lightly: "Master is as wise as a torch, and he will never look at the wrong person." Since she handed over this sword to Senior Brother Bai, it showed that he would definitely lead Cihang and live up to his trust. What do you think? ”
Qunni didn't dare to have any more objections, and bowed one after another.
Xu Xian thought to himself: "This person must be Su Lian, the eldest disciple of Master Huizhen." He had heard Cheng Zhongfu talk about some of the stories of Cihang Jingzhai, and vaguely remembered this name. I heard that her swordsmanship is unparalleled, and she is not under her teacher, but because she is indifferent and indisputable, she acts extremely low-key, and her reputation is not as loud as that of other disciples. At this time, seeing that she was gentle and elegant, but she had her own majesty, and her actions were quite decisive and decisive, she couldn't help but be in awe.
I also heard Sa Shoujian say: "What Master Su Lian said is very true. Maoshan can be worshiped by Daogu as Bixia Yuanjun, why can't Cihang Jingzhai set up a male disciple as the head? If this Bai Yu Toad can be so favored by Master Huizhen, he must have extraordinary ability, and he is willing to lead the disciples of the Shenxiao Sect to obey the direction of the Bai Zhangmen. ”
Mao Ziyuan also smiled and stepped forward, saluting to the white jade toad: "The eight hundred laymen of the White Lotus Society, may only Cihang Jingzhai be the head of the white sect." ”
Seeing that the two emerging Taoist and Buddhist sects took the lead in recognizing the "dragon head", everyone couldn't help but be in a commotion. A tall and thin green-robed Taoist stood out and said lightly: "Sa Zhangmen is right, my Maoshan can serve Bixia Yuanjun as the head, and Cihang Jingzhai can naturally serve the male disciple as the head." Master Mao is also right, since we have been appointed as the 'dragon head' by Master Hui Zhen, we should be succeeded by her successor. But there is only one thing that Poor Dao doesn't understand, and he still hopes that Bai Yu Toad Bai will give advice. ”
The person was wearing a five-colored cloud veil, with long eyebrows and sideburns, and his thin eyes seemed to be awake but not awake, and seemed to be closed, and it was Zhu Dongyuan, the auxiliary sect master of the Maoshan faction.
Xu Xian's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered the beautiful and gentle Li Qiuqing. She threw herself into the Maoshan Gate, and she hasn't seen her for several years, so I don't know what the situation is like? Gaze at the group of Maoshan Taoist priests behind Zhu Dongyuan, all wearing seven-star black crowns, slanting long swords, and embroidered with Beidou patterns on the corners of their clothes.
Bai Yuchan glanced at Su Lian Shitai, and when she saw her bowing her head towards her, Fang said, "Zhu Zhenren, please speak." ”
Zhu Dongyuan said: "Since when Lin Lingsu ambushed Master Huizhen, Master Bai was on the side, presumably he must have recognized the demon clearly?" Seeing that she nodded, he said: "Before, on the 'Sea of Mist', that lame boy called himself Lin Lingsu, guided the heavenly thunder, and with the help of artillery, broke the 'Hundred-foot Sword Tower'...... The white boss fought face-to-face with him in a fierce battle of life and death, presumably he would not admit his mistake? Dare to ask, is he really the devil? ”
Bai Yuchan hesitated for a moment, and muttered: "Although he doesn't look like the demon who assassinated the master that day, he ...... The true qi is majestic and strange, he can use the 'Yin and Yang Five Thunder Dafa' with his own strength, break the 'No. 1 Sword Formation in the World', and can be so supported by the demons of the Demon Gate, except for Lin Lingsu, I really can't think of anyone else. ”
When everyone remembered what they had seen before, their hearts were all in shock, and they thought so.
Zhu Dongyuan's face was expressionless, and he said lightly: "That's strange." Since he is really Lin Lingsu, why did he let you go alone when he assassinated the Venerable Master? Why did you suddenly turn around and spare your life again? ”
There was an uproar all around, Bai Yu Toad couldn't help but glance down at the sachet on his waist, his cheeks were flushed, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
The glow of the sun shone on her face, the golden light was shining, and her eyes were confused and drunk. Xu Xian's breath was suffocated, as if someone had suddenly choked his throat, and every beating of his heart brought indescribable pain, and he secretly thought: "Even if you are really not Sister Bai, even if I have to do it again, I can't do it!" ”
Before he could think about it, Zhu Dongyuan's eyes suddenly burst into lightning, swept towards him like lightning, and said coldly: "Since Master Bai doesn't know, it's better to ask this 'Emperor' in the sachet to answer in person." The fingertips flicked, and with a "snort", the sachet tie on the white jade toad's waist broke in response.
Xu Xian's heart sank, and before he could come back to his senses, he had already hit the ground with the sachet attached, and rolled out with his bones.
The crowd stared at him in astonishment, looking at each other in silence. Time seemed to freeze suddenly, and I don't know how long it took before I heard someone whisper "Huh" and shouted: "The devil!" his grandma, it's the devil! "The surroundings were like exploding a pot, and it was like a boil.
Zhang Tianshi, Xu Guanchan and the others' faces changed in unison, and they shouted: "Set up the formation!" "The sword light flashed, the figure flickered, and more than a dozen sword formations of all sizes flew staggeredly, surrounding him and the white jade toad in the center in an instant." "Boom" sounded, ice and snow flakes splashed, and his clothes were even more ragged by the sword qi, and dozens of blood marks appeared on his body.
