"Calling for wind and rain, sprinkling beans into soldiers, it's so powerful."

In the Nirvana Temple, Shen Qiu held a bowl of porridge and rice, picked up the vegetarian vegetables with chopsticks, and put them in his mouth.

"This is a manifestation, not only Zhang Chu outside the city was scared away, but also inside the city was frightened, and he came majestically, but as a result, he only left half of the way in one night.

Counting the hidden anti-thieves and ghosts, it's really a bad start. ”

"No wonder they are."

The mustard monk sat on the other side of the round table.

He was also holding a bowl in his hand, and he still had half a steamed bun in front of him.

He said:

"My Nirvana Temple, the great sect in the world, didn't I also send the Zen masters who are not good at fighting out of Lin'an in advance? What we see and hear today is expected.

is only halfway away, which shows that the martial arts heroes still have a little courage. ”

He snorted and plucked a few mouthfuls of rice, then put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said to Shen Qiu:

"Since last night, the city defense army has opened the north gate and the east gate and sent the people in the city outside the city, what do you think about this?"

"It's about emptying the table and having a good fight."

Shen Qiu didn't raise his head and said:

"He knows that we are here, this is an invitation, he is really full of confidence, but it is also true, the matter of Qilu has spread the notoriety of Penglai all over the world.

The hidden building has collapsed, and the news can't be hidden, so it will no longer twist and pinch, and set up a battle, you come and go, and the sword speaks.

Gather our hard bones together and defeat them in a war, this is to make an example of chickens and monkeys, after this battle, who else in the whole world dares to resist them? ”

The mustard monk turned the Buddha beads, and his yin and yang face was full of approval.

After a few breaths, he looked at Shen Qiu and said:

"But, people's hearts are on our side."

"Indeed."

Shen Qiu also put down the dishes and chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief, and wiped his mouth.

He said:

"The big guy gives face, and if he can come to Lin'an, it is people's hearts that turn their backs, even if they flee at night, they are just afraid of power, and it is human nature to avoid death and live.

If you have to touch a stone with an egg, it is not everyone's philosophy of life, so this is not easy to evaluate.

But as long as we win, everything will be solved.

As long as we overthrow the immortals who appeared in front of people in Lin'an, and tell them with facts that immortals are not invincible, then after this battle, the fire of resistance in all parts of the world will be ignited.

To do great things, there must always be a pioneer.

Since we are already here, if we talk about being afraid of death, we will inevitably be laughed at. ”

The mustard monk closed his eyes and pronounced the Buddha's name.

He said:

"Qingqing, will you come?"

"Yes."

Shen Qiu replied softly:

"Everyone will come, the fire bearers who are advancing in the darkness, tearing through the darkness and bringing in the moment of light, if the future Empress of Great Chu is not there, it will inevitably be a little unpleasant.

I believe that this city is loyal, and it will return to Qingqing's embrace, just like Qilu.

You don't have to worry too much, though.

Qingqing won't come alone. ”

"Good!"

Huo Ran, the mustard seed monk, got up, picked up the heavy Zen staff from his hand, and said:

"Then let me, a hopeless father, clear this last obstacle for my daughter to ascend the road to the world!

I have received clear news that tomorrow afternoon, in front of the Taimiao, the lord of the country, Zhao Ming, will pay homage to Penglai Daojun, and will be officially included in the Penglai Gate Wall, and the master has made a decision.

Tomorrow will be the angry eyes of Vajra and protect the righteous path of the world. ”

"Tomorrow?"

Shen Qiumo rubbed his chin and beard, walked to the window, and looked out.

After a few breaths, he said:

"Look at the sunny day, the sky is cloudless, and tomorrow, I think it will be a good weather to go to the death and start a war. Just wait for tomorrow, my generation will go to the imperial city, and the bloody battle of Taimiao will begin.

The city is small, and it is handed over to the master and the heroes. ”

"Outside the imperial city, there are also tiger guards and a group of elite soldiers."

The mustard monk said:

"Weihou seems to have expected it, and since this morning, he has been arranging his troops."

"Don't worry about them."

Shen Qiu waved his hand and said:

"Someone will deal with them."

At this time, outside the city, fifty miles.

The morale of the northern army camp was very low, and even the fearless demon soldiers were talking to each other, using intermittent words to spread the thrilling things they witnessed yesterday.

More than 10,000 ghost warrior forwards were destroyed by one method, before and after, and it didn't last until the pillar incense.

This kind of power of heaven and earth is really terrifying.

But as the commander of the Northern National Division, he was indifferent, and he was still interested in taking his personal companion and riding a horse.

A group of people rode in front of a small hill, from here, you can vaguely see the distant Lin'an Xiongcheng, just like a giant beast under the bright sky, lying on the ground majestically.

Towards them, he opened his mouth wide of blood, waiting for fresh blood to eat, and took the initiative to step into it.

"No life, the city will be attacked tomorrow, and it is likely that it will never return, are you afraid?"

Zhang Chu rode on a richly decorated black war horse and asked behind him.

Hearing Zhang Chu's inquiry, he shook his head, and with the long hair scattered behind his head, he said:

"Don't be afraid, you will be the eldest brother and take this city!"

"I'm not afraid."

Zhang Chu smiled, he grabbed the reins of the horse, looked at Lin'an Xiongcheng, and said:

"The soldiers are afraid of the immortal who killed more than 10,000 people without showing up, but I'm not afraid, no matter how powerful he is, it has nothing to do with us.

He wasn't something we had to consider from the start.

That was the trouble of Shen Qiu's people, what we have to think about is to plant the flag of our northern country on the palace of the Lin'an Imperial City before they divide the victory or defeat. ”

"Brother Zhang Chu."

Sorrowless said in amazement:

"That kind of master, fight against each other, Lin'an, I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive, it's just that it's useless to plant the flag and not occupy it."

"No, it's useful, it's lifeless."

Zhang Chu turned around and winked at Wu Wusheng, and a meaningful light appeared in his heterochromatic pupils.

He said:

"It doesn't matter whether I occupy Lin'an or not, as long as I wait for the southern capital, even if I only stay in it for a stick of incense, it will be of great benefit to what we are going to do next.

That's a big flag.

As long as it is still there, it will be seen south of the Yangtze River and to the ends of the South China Sea.

But if it is cut down, those people will not be able to see it.

The banner in his heart collapsed majestically, just like more than 20 years ago, the Lin'an Forbidden Palace caught fire, Emperor Chu Shao's family died, and half of the world belonged to the Zhao family.

The Zhao family did evil things back then, and now they have repaid it back, and they perished in the same way as Da Chu, which is really a good reincarnation of heaven. ”

Worry about lifelessness seems to understand whether you understand it or not.

It's not that he can't understand these things, he just doesn't bother to think about them.

The two of them walked one after the other, on this hill, looking forward in the sun.

After a few breaths, a war horse rushed up, and the loyal and brave lieutenant general brought two pieces of news to the national teacher.

"Master Guoshi, the city has sent a message."

The lieutenant general rode on his horse and said to Zhang Chu with a fist:

"At noon tomorrow, the lord of the Southern Dynasty will worship the wall of Penglai Gate in front of the Taimiao, and the people in the city will also be sent out of the city from the east gate of the north gate of Lin'an.

There are soldiers and horses under the command of Weihou to escort them, but there are not many of them.

Shall we divide our forces and go and attack them? ”

"Not necessarily!"

Zhang Chu waved his hand and said:

"Let them go, when the city of Lin'an is destroyed, and the people have nowhere to go, they will become obedient people under the command of my northern country. If it's your own people, why do you want to attack it?

If it is lost, it is very bad, although I have not seen the lord of the Southern Dynasty, but I have heard that Zhao Ming is also a shrewd person, how could he do such a ridiculous thing.

The lord of a country, sitting on half of the world, with tens of millions of Li people accompanying him, actually worships the thieves of troubled times as a teacher, hehe, this is really a wild father for himself.

If Zhao Hu knew about it, he was afraid that he would vomit three liters of blood. ”

Zhang Chu smiled disdainfully.

He rubbed the reins in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and said:

"Tomorrow...

I'm afraid tomorrow is the time for a decisive battle, no life, you go to the magic camp to take a turn, let them not make trouble, tonight at night, they will march to Lin'an, be sure to arrive at Lin'an before noon! ”

"Yes."

Worrying and lifeless, he turned over and rode away.

After leaving without worry, the lieutenant general spoke again:

"There is one more thing to tell the national teacher.

There is a report from the rear to explore the Malay, and to the north of Lin'an, there is also a group of people and horses advancing. But the composition is very mixed, according to the Tanmalay report, there are nearly 2,000 people suspected of being the strikers of the Tiance Army.

The Chinese army is nearly 1,000 Jianghu people, most of whom are chivalrous men from Qiludi.

Someone recognized the Taoist of the Jade Emperor Palace, and it is said that there are Taoist swordsmen from Xiaoxiang, and the rear army is nearly a thousand boxers from the Heluo Gang of the Central Plains, as well as a group of people named Huazi. ”

Hearing this report, Zhang Chu's face also changed.

"Good guys!"

The national teacher sighed with emotion and said:

"This is the gathering of the great factions of the rivers and lakes, when they first fought my Demon Sect, these righteous knights have never been so united. This Shen Qiu, every time he can do something new, every time he can be impressive.

But that's fine. ”

He said:

"The more people come, the better, they have more chances of winning on their side, and we have more chances of winning here, so don't pay attention to them. Go back to the army, gather the generals, and inform them of my decision. ”

The adjutant general answered, and he also wanted to pat his horse back.

However, as soon as he turned around, he was called by Zhang Chu.

The national teacher seemed to be thinking, and the deputy general did not dare to disturb and waited quietly.

After more than ten breaths, I heard the national teacher say:

"In this way, you elect half of the generals, and you don't have to go to Lin'an with me tomorrow. Except for the 50,000 demon soldiers, the other soldiers don't have to go.

You will be the commander-in-chief, and when we set off tonight, you will also go further south!" ”

Zhang Chu told the lieutenant general:

"Send scouts to the southern cities to spread the news, saying that Lin'an has been destroyed, the Zhao clan is dead, I don't care what method you use, within a month, you must occupy the military road to Liangguang and Fujian, and sweep the south with the might of our northern army.

Do you understand? ”

"The last general understands!"

As soon as he heard that there was no need to go to Lin'an to die, the adjutant general's heart was hot.

Like ordinary soldiers, he was also frightened by the tragic situation of the Japanese strikers yesterday, and instinctively felt that it would not work to storm Lin'an.

But the national teacher has a plan, and he can't persuade him.

Now that the national division has a new order for them, it is better to go to the richer south to attack and occupy it.

He's good at this.

Even a few Japanese people can run rampant in the south of the Yangtze River, and the weakness and decay of the armaments in the hinterland of the south can be seen that the elite of the northern army wants to go straight into the hinterland of the south, that is, to kill chickens with a knife.

The adjutant general rushed back, leaving only Zhang Chu on the hill.

The national teacher took out the kettle from his horse pocket, twisted the lid, and poured a pot of water into his mouth, which made the thirsty throat more comfortable.

When he was alone here, Zhang Chu also revealed something, which would not be revealed in front of outsiders...

Weak.

He wiped his chest.

Through the clothes, you can feel the scorched breath coming from under the skin on your chest, from your throat to your lungs, as if you have eaten hot peppers.

The amount of water you drink every day is increasing, but the excretion is getting less and less.

It was as if water had entered the body, as if it had been poured on the cracked earth, and it seeped in at once, disappearing without a trace, but his martial arts skills, even if he did not specialize in pranayama, were increasing day by day.

A few months ago, he only entered the half-step heaven list.

Today, Zhang Chu has completed the practice of returning to reality, the innate body has already been cast, and he is moving towards a stainless and leakless body, and he can even clearly feel that the shackles and bottlenecks that have begun to shake are still being felt.

Maybe in a few more years, I will be able to enter the heavenly list.

If you practice with all your might, keep working with others, and stimulate the potential of the Holy Flame, this time will be even shorter.

Such a speed of progress will definitely make the entire rivers and lakes shake, and it will definitely make all martial artists envious.

But...

And at what cost?

It's like a fire.

Now that it has reached its peak, all the firewood is lit, and the heat of roasting all things is constantly released.

But what about when the last firewood is burned out?

What will be the result for yourself?

"My fate is not destined to be too good."

This thought flashed away in Zhang Chu's heart.

But if you want to talk about remorse, there is not much in fact.

If he was given another chance to choose, he would still take the thousand-year-old flame that was sent to him that day, and he would not hesitate in the slightest.

Pleasure?

What is pleasure?

In a person's life, there is always a goal, to make the impossible possible, to turn the possibility into reality, that is the way a good man should go, even if he pays for his life, he will not hesitate.

If you can't hang high in the sky, it will release light and heat and illuminate the sun in the world.

It's better to be a shooting star.

Crossing the sky, it can also shine on the world, be known, and burn the last wisp of hard work in the gorgeous, leaving its own traces.

Besides.

Zhang Chu smiled, and he let out a scorching breath.

Thinking that he wanted to compete with someone like Shen Qiu on the same stage, he didn't want to be pulled too far by him from beginning to end, but he didn't have that wisp of immortal fate in his hands.

If you don't want to admit defeat, you can only pay more.

"My father once told me that every road has an end, and the end is close in front of me."

Zhang Chu retracted his gaze, didn't hold the reins, and just let the war horse carry him to the bottom of the hill.

He closed his eyes, picked up another jug of wine, and moistened his throat.

He said:

"Since you chose it yourself, then grit your teeth and go to the end, success or failure, in this move, you might as well give it a go."
