Chapter 87
"Master Kuzen is polite, but Gu's strength is limited, and he is really ashamed. Gu Qingfeng shook his head, his face sad.
The scene of that day is vivid, although I didn't see the death of the abbot of Kuruo and Master Kuming with my own eyes, but when I went back, the corpses everywhere and the blood mixed with the rain still made Gu Qingfeng and the others feel a strong visual impact. This is also an important reason why the six of them made up their minds to defect to the sect and defect to Qinshan.
"The times are stronger than others. Master Kuzen sighed, obviously unable to break free from the shadow of the sect's annihilation for a while.
Thinking of the destruction of the Heart Zen Temple, the high atmosphere in the main hall that was originally due to the arrival of the six people also became solemn, and no one spoke for a while, and they all looked at the Kuzen master.
"Murong is in charge, what about Niu Tianya, why don't you see him?" In the dreak, Li Zhansoul, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"I'm ashamed to say that. Murong Qingyun smiled bitterly. Since they parted that day, he didn't know where Niu Tianya had gone. Now he reported it to Situ Nan and Chen Yufeng as soon as possible, but Situ Nan didn't see him, and only passed on one word: Wait!
"I don't know where he went. β
"Amitabha, if the little monk is not mistaken, the left protector should be preparing a big gift. At the bottom, Long Yin, who hadn't spoken much since he came to Qinshan, suddenly spoke, his eyes burning.
"Oh, what kind of gift?" Li Zhan Soul seemed to be particularly interested in Niu Tianya, and raised his sword eyebrows.
"Qi Yu is in charge, the left protector is back, and he is on the Qinshan Road. Long Yin was just about to answer, when the voice of the disciple on duty outside the hall came in, clear and powerful.
The mountain rain is misty, but it is much smaller than two days ago, but it still has the unique cold atmosphere of winter.
On the misty Qinshan Road, a young man dressed in a natural cloth without any rain gear protection walked up the stone steps step by step.
"The friend in front of me stopped, and Zhang Feng, a disciple on duty in the Lower Qinshan Guard Hall, may I ask if my friend is here to visit or to find someone?"
A powerful voice sounded suddenly, and a young disciple dressed in green clothes appeared on the stone steps, also without any rain gear, letting the rain hit his body, but he ignored it, staring at the person with a pair of eyes.
A moment later, Zhang Feng's eyes were cold, and a four-meter-tall black figure appeared in his field of vision, and his dark red eyes were endlessly weird.
"Thank you. The visitor raised his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, his face smiling, and the crystal droplets flew out of the distance with the movement of raising his head, drawing a silver line in the air and disappearing into the vast rain curtain.
"Left Protector?" Zhang Feng's eyes widened, and then his body straightened, "Welcome to the Left Protector back to the mountain, and the disciple will go to Tongyu immediately." β
"No need. Niu Tianya waved his hand, "It's cold outside, go back and drink a bowl of ginger syrup and rest." With that, he continued to walk upward.
"Yes. Zhang Feng's mouth responded, but his body was motionless, watching Niu Tianya disappear on the infinitely long stone steps, and a warm current also surged in his heart. In a trance, he saw that the huge black shadow also followed Niu Tianya up the mountain.
After the discussion in the main hall that day, Niu Tianya's name spread in the newly established Qinshan faction. The brand-new structure system, although the division of responsibilities of one main and two deputy halls is unprecedented, but what really shocked the disciples was the subsequent introduction of the Qinshan Codex!
The Qinshan Code can be said to be the first law of eternity, in this world where strength is respected, its birth is a bit incompatible, but Situ Nan, Chen Yufeng and others are keenly aware of its value and openly support it!
In Niu Tianya's concept, the Codex was rolled out in three stages, giving the people below time to adapt. What is being introduced now is the four laws and regulations, including the 'Interim Law on Logistics and Financial Management', the 'Law on the Division of Responsibilities at the Entrance', the 'Law on the Rewards and Punishments of Qinshan Disciples', and the 'Law on Job Responsibilities'.
The four legal codes are engraved on the boulders on both sides of the Heavenly Dao Hall for the disciples to observe and dismantle, so that everyone knows the law, understands the law, and abides by the law. At the same time, Niu Tianya is also preparing to train a group of disciples to explain the law to everyone. If the training disciple does not explain properly, it will still be judged according to the legal principles and the corresponding punishment will be made.
At first, I didn't understand it, but after a few days, as many disciples dismantled it, the content of the code was generally clear, and the disciples also felt a wordless admiration for Niu Tianya in their hearts. Although the rules and regulations of the code are strict, they clearly define the responsibilities of individuals, and there are clear rules for any position, and everyone acts in accordance with the code, and there will be no mistakes.
After the code, Qin Shan, who had been sent for a few days, immediately turned slowly like a sophisticated one, roaring out with a sky-shattering roar. Things within the sect are also thriving. Although he was only a disciple of the mountain guard, Zhang Feng also felt a sense of pride in his heart.
Walking up the steps step by step, after walking for half an hour, Niu Tianya walked to the square in front of the Heavenly Dao Hall.
On the square, including Murong Qingyun and Gu Qingfeng, who were in charge of the sect, gathered under the winter rain, quietly waiting for his return.
"See the head of the sect, all the deputy seats, Gu Daxia, Li Daxia. Niu Tianya straightened up and bowed slightly to a few people.
Behind Niu Tianya, the black ape stood motionless in the rain, his strange black eyes swept over everyone, arrogant and cold.
"Blood Pupil Demon Ape?" among the crowd, several people immediately exclaimed, their eyes staring at the black ape for a moment, and their eyes showed infinite shock. This ancient spirit beast has become extinct in the Heavenly Firmament Continent, but he didn't expect it to reappear today, and he followed Niu Tianya.
"Master Kuzen, these two are for you. Niu Tianya ignored the exclamations in the crowd, shook one hand, and a gray burden flew out and fell into the hands of the Kuzen master.
"Huh?" After receiving the burden, Kuzen's face changed slightly, and his hands trembled and opened, and inside, two heads were revealed.
"It's a pity that it's not Mo Jiannan who is here. Niu Tianya shook his head, and the wet long dance moved, like a dragon out of the water, bringing strings of raindrops.
"Ah......h
With an exclamation, Gu Ling'er's face turned pale, and her big eyes revealed infinite fear.
In the baggage, it was the heads of Mo Jianbei and Mo Xiangtian who were killed by Niu Tianya. Mo Xiangtian's eyes were closed, there was no blood on his face, and he didn't even have any expression, as if he had died as he deserved. And Mo Jianbei's eyes were round and wide, the corners of his mouth were abruptly distorted, and his hideous complexion seemed to be a demon god from the Nine Shadows Abyss, and he was obviously greatly frightened before he died.
"Amitabha. Master Kuzen raised his palm and closed his eyes, "Senior brother, junior brother, in the battle of Xinzen Temple, Lao Wei will not let you die in vain." β
"Ling'er. Gu Qingfeng lowered his head and shouted, and then said leisurely, "It's still tolerable to do evil in the sky, but you can't live if you do evil yourself." Thinking about the more than 1,000 lives of the Heart Zen Temple, you should have expected their ending today. β
"It's just, it's just ......" Gu Linger's big eyes were still full of horror, she couldn't imagine that the friends who were talking and laughing together yesterday would disappear today, leaving only a head in front of her.
"There is nothing but that, the soldiers will be destroyed by the soldiers, and the fire-playing ones will burn themselves. Niu Tianya turned to Gu Ling'er with a hint of affection in his eyes. After all, he and Qianqian and Gu Linger have lived in the mountains for more than a year, and they will never be forgotten. Perhaps, it was the most peaceful years since he was reborn on the continent.
A complex glint flashed in her eyes, and Gu Linger finally calmed down and nodded.
"Alright, let's go back, Protector Zuo, there are a few things to discuss with you. Murong Qingyun diverted the topic, and everyone walked into the Heavenly Dao Hall again.
In the past few days, the cultivation realm has exploded again.
First, Gu Qingfeng, Li Zhansoul, Song Bieli, Qiu Lige, Situ Tianhe, and Gu Linger defected to the Xiuzhen Alliance and threw themselves into the arms of Qin Mountain. Then it was rumored that the left protector of the Qinshan Sect, Niu Tianya, waited in the rain for two days to kill Mo Jianbei and Mo Xiangtian, who were sent by the Ancient Sword Academy to deliver a message to the Lianyun Sword Sect, the main altar of the Xiuzhen Great Alliance.
Subsequently, the Qinshan faction officially announced the list of high-level personnel: Leader: Murong Qingyun Deputy Leader: Gu Qingfeng (outside), Ye Qingmei (inside)
The left protector Niu Tianya, the right protector Longyin
Outer War Hall: Hall Master Xuan Carrier, Deputy Hall Master Li Dongshi, Miao Beiyuan Internal Affairs Hall: Hall Master Chen Changxing, Deputy Hall Master Bai Xincheng Expedition Hall: Hall Master Murong Qingfeng, Deputy Hall Master Jiang Duhan, Li Zhan Soul Guard Hall: Hall Master Miao Beikuang, Deputy Hall Master Kuzen Master.
The list was announced, and the cultivation world was in an uproar. No one expected that the newly built Qin Mountain would announce its arrival in this way.
Niu Tianya Danqing killed the two masters of the Ancient Sword Academy, Gu Qingfeng and others defected, and Qinshan was restructured...... After a series of changes, people of insight finally realized that a new era is coming-Qinshan era!
Gu Qingfeng's six people defected, Mo Jianbei and two people were killed, and for a while, the Xiuzhen Alliance was silent. The complacency of relying on crowd tactics to defeat the Xinzen Temple no longer existed, and Qin Shan's two powerful counterattacks were like two heart-warming cannons, beating them out of breath.
Ye Moyu and Qin Guan were even more furious, especially Qin Guan, the fire in the backyard caused the Xiao Wall, and such a shameful thing appeared under his own door, although the Ancient Sword Courtyard was even worse than them, but he still couldn't hold it on his face.
However, what made him even more angry was still to come, taking advantage of the incident of six people defecting and two being killed, Ye Moyu also successfully removed Liu Xinghan and Mo Jiannan from the position of deputy alliance leader, and promoted Huang Fei and Xue Fence Clan. At this point, the Xiuzhen Alliance completely fell into Ye Moyu's control.
Qin Shan counterattacked, the Xiuzhen Alliance was silent, and the weather vane of the Xiuzhen Realm also changed. More people of insight saw the strength and thoroughness of Qinshan's restructuring and devoted themselves to the Qinshan faction. Qinshan's welcome pavilion and wing courtyard are also busy.
It's just that Qin Shan's requirements for summoning manpower are quite strict, and only the sects or individuals who truly defend the Heavenly Dao can join.
In the past few days, the high-level leaders of Qinshan have been even busier, until late at night, the lights in the Heavenly Dao Hall are still on, and there are constant quarrels inside. The disciples on duty seemed to have become accustomed to this kind of life, and still remained motionless outside.
"Alright, that's it. Murong Qingyun waved his hand and suppressed the two side seats of the Outer War Hall and the Expedition Hall that were arguing.
"Okay, since that's the case, it's finalized, it's late at night, everyone rest, tomorrow is the party ceremony, don't be late. Ye Qingmei also smiled slightly, his face rippling with happy exhaustion.
"Next time someone has someone, be sure to supply us first. Jiang Duhan shouted and walked out of the hall with everyone.
After a few days of fierce quarrels, the final candidate for Qinshan Sitang has also been finalized.
The two sides of the war broke out were the Outer War Hall and the Expedition Hall. The Internal Affairs Hall needs logistical professionals, for whom it is far more useful to be proficient in management than the masters of the Mahayana period, and do not participate in battles, and the same is true for the Guard Hall, they are guarding the base camp of Qinshan, and most of the masters in the sect are sitting here, so the strength of the disciples can be appropriately reduced, as long as the two Yuan Infant Stage are enough to fill the faΓ§ade. The Outer War Hall and the Expedition Hall are different.
The main battle of the Outer Battle Hall, whether it is against the Xiuzhen Great Alliance or the Immortal Realm in the future, the decisive victory of the main battlefield requires the action of the Outer War Hall, so staffing has become their most important thing. Equally important is the Expeditionary Hall. The key target of the Expedition Hall is the enemy's brain, even if the opponent's cultivation is not high, there must be a master to protect it, and the cultivation of the disciples in the hall has also become the top priority. The two churches had a fierce confrontation over the allocation of personnel.
Finally, after consultation, the final list was finalized, and the Outer War Hall was led by Chenyuan, Song Bieli, Miao Shiyun, Gu Linger, Qianqian, Huaishuo, and Huairen, and its strength was the first in the sect with strong combat effectiveness. The Expeditionary Hall took the route of elite soldiers, composed of Nian Chen, Qiu Lige, Situ Tianhe, Tu Longtian, Xuan Muqing and other fierce generals, focusing on killing.
It's just that Jiang Duhan still didn't give up, and asked to transfer one person from the Outer War Hall to the Expedition Hall, and later Niu Tianya and Long Yin promised not to stand by and watch at the critical moment to settle the matter.
Tomorrow will be the official opening ceremony of Qinshan.
Niu Tianya stood under the night sky, looking up at the sky. From a homeless street child to the present, step by step on the road to the peak of the Heavenly Dao. He didn't know how far this road was, let alone how many thorns awaited him, the only thing he knew for sure was that he would continue to walk along this road without regrets until the end of his life!
The sky is clear and cloudless. In the turquoise blue sky, the disc-sized sun emits a soft glow, bringing a touch of warmth to the cool sky after the winter rains.
On the square in front of the Qinshan Heavenly Dao Palace, it was densely packed with people, men, women and children, beaming with joy. Song Bieli and other elites also arrived early, neatly lined up in front of the Heavenly Dao Palace, quietly waiting for the moment when the ceremony began.
After a while, the main gate of the Heavenly Dao Hall opened, and the high-level Qinshan with Murong Qingyun as the head came out, naturally lined up on both sides, and the atmosphere in the square in front of the hall reached a climax at this moment.
Except for Niu Tianya and Long Yin, everyone else changed into new clothes with smiling faces.
Murong Qingyun looked around with his fists clenched, then waved his hand to suppress everyone's voices and said: "Fellow Daoists, old man Murong Qingyun, I am in charge of Qinshan, today is the opening ceremony of my Qinshan faction, welcome everyone." β
"Murong Zhangjiao, there is no need to say much nonsense, Qin Shan is famous, and he is one of the only level forces in the cultivation realm that can confront the Xiuzhen Great Alliance, the left and right protectors, the two deputy sect masters, the four hall masters, and the eight deputy hall masters Everyone knows that the people who came today are not outsiders, so there is no need to be polite, I just ask you, does Qin Shan still recruit people? If it is recruited, all of our Agni Sect will join, and we are willing to drive before and after. In the square, a rough voice sounded, and the people around immediately echoed and asked.
"Qin Shan opened a faction, naturally recruiting manpower, but the requirements are very strict, and those who need to be dedicated to the Tao and defend the Dao of Heaven. Even if you have no hope of stepping into the Mahayana period and stepping into the Supreme Heavenly Dao, you must cultivate the backwards and do your best, otherwise, you will be punished by the Qinshan Code. Ye Qing frowned and smiled, but his words were full of toughness.
"That's natural, the people who can come here today are all friends of Qin Shan, otherwise they wouldn't have come under the pressure of the Xiuzhen Alliance and the Immortal Realm, and I, Hanhaimen, have also joined. Offstage, the shouting began again.
The Qinshan Code has long resounded in the cultivation realm, and it is the advent of this code that has put a distinct mark on the Qinshan establishment and allowed many people who were originally wavering to see the dawn. There is an extraordinary scene of today's ceremony.
There was a question and answer between the front of the hall and the square, and he was very busy, and Niu Tianya's eyes were also fixed on Qiu Lige.
As soon as he appeared, he felt two undisguised burning gazes, and the slightest spiritual connection fluctuated violently. Niu Tianya turned his head and met the two gazes from the opposite side, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
He and Qiu Lige have never said a few words together, and they don't have a fateful friendship, at most they can only be regarded as acquaintances. It's just that for some reason, when he saw Qiu Lige's sad and hazy eyes, the weakest string in his heart trembled violently, and he could never forget it.
Perhaps, this is fate. Although he used to have a deep affection for Xinyue, and until now he still dotes on Gu Linger and cares for the little witch Qianqian, but in them, no matter what, he can't find that feeling, the feeling that really makes his heart move.
The sun is shining, shining warmly on the body, looking at Niu Tianya, Qiu Lige's face also evokes a smile, and the bright sunshine is even brighter.
After the ceremony, it will always be the same flowing water feast, and people from all walks of life will gather together to eat and drink, and the sea and sky will be broad. It's just that Niu Tianya is not used to this feeling, although he has also laughed and scolded, but deep down, he still feels endless silence, after all, he comes from another world, another civilization.
Walking out of the main hall, he came to a stop in front of a cliff in the back mountain. Niu Tianya was stunned.
Qin Shan's two powerful counterattacks destroyed the Ancient Sword Academy, and even the Cloud Sword Sect also fell with it. The news that Liu Xinghan and Mo Jiannan's deputy alliance leaders were removed came earlier. It's just that the other party didn't react to all this. Niu Tianya keenly smelled a hint of strangeness, the calm before the storm.
Perhaps, the high-level of the Xiuzhen Alliance is negotiating the next plan, and the head-on confrontation between Qin Shan and them is more likely to start here, but all this is not something that one or two people can stop, and the battle will start sooner or later.
There was a faint noise of people in the distance, and the staggered flowing water feast was obviously still going on, although the strength of the wine was already very small for these cultivators, but it would still be sinful to drink too much.
Niu Tianya smiled slightly, and said without moving: "You are here." β
"Hmm. An answer sounded, and Qiu Lige slowly walked over to him and stood still, looking at the scenery under the cliff side by side.
The bright sunlight sprinkled flowers on the grass through the tall spruce, the cool breeze in front of them, the warm sunlight behind them, and the two stood motionless, silently feeling each other's breathing and heartbeat.
It was a wordless exchange, and Niu Tianya's heart was quiet. It was as if it was a quiet morning, and the blue sky was as pure as a sapphire. A round of golden discs hung high in the sky, emitting a soft glow. Under the spruce trees, the flower-like points of light continue to shake, and a beautiful scenery slowly condenses in the bottom of my heart.
"I wish it was going on forever. After a while, the silent Qiu Lige was the first to speak, his eyes still staring at the bottom of the cliff, as if there was a beautiful picture scroll there.
"People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Niu Tianya raised his head, his dark eyes shining like stars in the dark night.
Indeed, there are many things that you cannot control, including your own destiny. Perhaps, from the moment he was reincarnated, it was just those who were confused and still struggling in it, trying to complete self-redemption.
Qiu Lige turned around, and Niu Tianya was only a stone's throw away, and he could even clearly smell the unique breath of the man opposite: "Have you ever regretted coming to this day?"
Niu Tianya smiled and shook his head, but his eyes were full of surprise.
He thinks he is not a hero, nor a coward, not a villain who tends to be inflammatory, nor a gentleman who is bright and clear. He is just an ordinary member of the crowd. It's just that he knows that even if he regrets it, there is no cure in this world.
The moment Qiu Lige asked, he just remembered a song from his previous life: Do you remember, have you forgotten, the people we once loved, the words we once said, those happy lies......
You are the fruit I planted when I was a child, and I can only pick it when I grow up; you are the person I saw in my dreams and can only be seen when I wake up; you are the promise I made when I was young, and I can only fulfill it when I am in vain; acquaintance is a kind of fate, acquaintance is a kind of part, staying together is a kind of love, companionship is a kind of love, experiencing the wind and rain of the journey of life, in the life of Niu Tianya, there are only memories left. Some are colorful, some are pale and bitter, but they are all like bottles of old wine, once opened, the fragrance overflows.
"The end of the hero, the tragedy of autumn, life should not be regretted, and there is no chance to start again, only to go on firmly, every transformed landscape, there is a brilliant rainbow. β
"Rainbow. β
Qiu Lige raised her head with a mutter, her eyes fell on the blue sky, at this moment, she finally firmed up her mind and found the rainbow that belonged to her life!
This is a great golden age of great destruction, great creation, great glory, great sinking, and thus a great transformation as a whole. The two major forces rose to compete in the Central Plains, and many small forces were either attached to or destroyed. Countless people were frightened, hiding in dark corners, carefully peeking at the changes of history. More people stepped forward and integrated into this vigorous era, splashing a little bright waves.
In such a big era, there is never a shortage of talking points, and all kinds of news are flying in the streets and alleys, wine, rice and tea shops, and the truth and falsehood are chaotic and complicated.
Ten days ago, the Xiuzhen Great Alliance took the lead in launching the second round of attacks, and Xue Qianshan single-handedly killed the Hanhai Gate, except for the Hanhai Gate master and four apprentices who negotiated in Qinshan, the remaining thirty-six masters who had cultivated to the Yuan Infant Stage were killed in one fell swoop.
On the same day, the mad knife also killed the Liuhe faction alone, and fought with Li Yang, the head of Liuhe, for an hour, and successfully killed Li Yang, but in this battle, the mad knife was seriously injured and escaped, and it has not yet come out.
