Chapter 135
Zhang Zhao carried the wine jar and first went to visit the frightened elders in the Yangxian Hall, and was relieved when he saw that Feng Qianli was sleeping and breathing evenly. Li Mengshan's injuries were also not light, and when he saw Zhang Zhao coming in, he still sat up.
"Picked up a life. Sheng Jin was afraid of waking Feng Qianli and lowered his voice for the first time to speak: "I was thinking about a few things back and forth in my heart, one is that I can't see the day you kid got married, the second is that the new robe hasn't been worn once, and the third is ......."
Sheng Jin suddenly fell silent and didn't say anything, and everyone didn't take it seriously. Liu Feng exhaled a long breath: "These of us either can't fight or can't walk, we all rely on Senior Brother Feng and Senior Brother Wu to protect them, and in the end we still drag them down." ”
Li Mengshan waved his hand, but he pulled the wound on his shoulder and couldn't help grinning: "What are we people polite, if it weren't for Zhang Zhaohe and those two here, we would only have to wait for death." He hesitated at Zhang Zhao: "Is the one who left first Zhuo Xuhan?"
Zhang Zhao nodded: "Senior Zhuo has some friendship with Qinglian in the Meditation Lake, so let's take a look." Li Mengshan nodded and exclaimed: "It's really amazing, earlier I thought Senior Brother Pang was exaggerating, but now it seems that this first person in the Five Profound Realms is really worthy of his reputation." ”
"The two people he killed, no matter which one swept our entire Lingxiao, it didn't take much effort. Qi Yaonan forgot a few wounds on his body that were still slightly bleeding: "As a result, he couldn't even run when he met him, which can be called the demeanor of an immortal." ”
Zhang Zhao saw that the elders said for a while, and let them rest well, and he carried the wine jar to the Jingxin Lake, under a bright moon, Dao Tianya sat cross-legged against the calm lake, and when he heard his footsteps, he didn't even look back.
"Great place, really nice place. Dao Tianya's voice was full of appreciation: "What you kid said is right, this Lingxiao really has something unique. Not only is the scenery pleasant, but the aura is extremely mellow like drinking fine wine. ”
Zhang Zhao listened to it and felt it carefully for a few times and didn't feel that it was any different from usual, Dao Tianya took the wine jar in his hand and said with a smile: "Your cultivation is not enough, you can't experience this feeling, only after you reach the realm of Brother Zhuo and the old man, you will know the taste." ”
Seeing that he had drunk a few empty jars of sprinkling, Zhang Zhao invited him to find a place to rest with him, but Dao Tianya refused to get up: "I have been used to the curtain for decades, and the water and moon here are full of spiritual energy, which is a hundred times stronger than the dark woods surrounded by the old man's soul." ”
Zhang Zhao had no choice but to say goodbye and go back to his room, and sat on the bed and silently recited the requiem scriptures dozens of times before he calmed down the fear that had been suppressed in his heart. At first, he always thought that what he did in Sanfencheng caused this catastrophe, but it was not until Lu Wanchen opened his mouth that he figured out what was going on.
He was both glad that Zhuo Xuhan and Dao Tianya had both come to Lingxiao, but he also regretted that he had delayed for a while before going to the main hall after hearing the bell, if he could leave quickly, maybe Lingxiao and the Red Maple Sect would have suffered less losses. After calming down for a while, Zhang Zhao remembered that he had released those shape-shifting demon beasts in the hall when he was in a hurry.
For nearly a month, he had felt all kinds of emotions of those demon beasts from Neidan every night, but he didn't expect that he still had the ability to instantly transform and kill the enemy, and condensed those demon beasts with their own characteristics, unlike the sword light he emitted before, which only had one color.
He got out of bed and waved a few times, and as soon as his mind moved, the tip of the knife flashed gray, and an eight-armed giant ape with long hair hanging down the ground stood quietly on the ground. Zhang Zhao slowly moved the giant ape and walked a few steps in the house, feeling that this thing was really novel.
The two monkeys who were asleep thought that Zhang Zhao was playing with Neidan again, but they were scared enough when they squinted. Just as they were about to jump out of the window to escape, they felt a gentle message emanating from the giant ape, as if to comfort them not to be afraid.
Zhang Zhao was even more surprised in his heart, he suddenly had the feeling that he was talking to two monkeys at this time, and he knew from the movements of Xiaobai and Blackface that they did understand their intentions. Zhang Zhao involuntarily made a ho-ho sound in his mouth, and the two monkeys also screamed a few times and fell asleep again.
"Are you blaming me for scaring them?" The gray giant ape lost its spiritual power support and dispersed gently, but Zhang Zhao stood on the ground blankly, he didn't understand why he could understand the calls of the two monkeys like listening to people.
"Little white, black face?" he stepped forward and shook the two monkeys awake and said a few words in succession, this time the two monkeys squeaked a few times but did not know what they meant. He stood by the bed and pondered for a moment, and in a flash of his sword, he turned into a giant ape again.
He snorted for a long time, and Xiaobai and Blackface snorted lazily a few times and did not respond. This time, Zhang Zhao finally understood that when he transformed into a giant ape, he could actually understand the meaning contained in the cries of the demon beasts.
After understanding the complaints of the two monkeys being woken up again and again, Zhang Zhao lay on the bed but could no longer calm down, what happened that day was too unbelievable, no matter which one made his heart beat wildly and it was difficult to sleep.
In less than three watches, Zhang Zhao got up, first practiced as usual, and then shook the two monkeys and screamed. Xiao Bai and Hei Yan could understand most of what he meant, and Zhang Zhao also roughly knew how the two monkeys usually hunted for food and played.
Seeing that it was not early, Zhang Zhao rushed down the mountain road and went straight to the kitchen helper. Although he was not affected by yesterday's bloody battle, Ling Xiao suffered heavy casualties, and the future of several elders was also unpredictable after they went with Lu Wanchen. A group of disciples in the back kitchen are all immersed in their work, and they have lost all the laughter of the past.
The fat master is so busy these days that he is dizzy, and when the bell rang yesterday, he and Zhang Zhao did not react after a long time, and when he rushed to the main hall, he happened to see Zhuo Xuhan kill Liao Gang Tang Hao, and he did not encounter any other enemy.
Zhang Zhao finished his work silently, and was about to leave with his things, when the fat master greeted: "Zhang Zhao, the senior brother in charge specially instructed that if the gentleman on the mountain has any requirements, you can just open your mouth and take whatever you want." ”
Everyone looked at Zhang Zhao differently than before. The cultivators of the Yin and Yang Transformation Realm have always been untouchable for sects like Lingxiao, but I heard that two of them appeared alive behind Zhang Zhao yesterday.
After carrying two more jars of wine and returning to the mountain, Zhang Zhao sent food to the people in Yangxiantang. As soon as Liu Feng asked, he said that he actually brought food over here first, and the elders couldn't help but change their faces, urging him to hurry up and go to Dao Tianya.
The shore of Jingxin Lake was empty, Zhang Zhao screamed a few times and did not respond, just when he thought that Dao Tianya was really as the elders said, he felt that he had been treated slowly, but his voice came from above his head.
Dao Tianya slowly fell from a height of dozens of zhang: "Sure enough, there is a great mystery, there seems to be a strange array hidden in this mountain and water of your Lingxiao, have you ever heard of it?" Zhang Zhao shook his head: "Haven't you heard of it?"
"I haven't seen it since last night, and I haven't found the eye of the formation. There was admiration on Dao Tianya's face: "This array is vast and vast, and it is definitely not something that can be completed in ten or eight years. The person who built the formation has a far-reaching vision and is well versed in the principles of the changes of the five elements, and the old man is ashamed of himself. ”
Zhang Zhao listened to it with some disbelief: "Can it be so powerful? Why didn't I realize it?" Dao Tianya laughed: "In the old man's opinion, this is a gathering spirit array, which can gather all kinds of spiritual energy within the radius, nourish things with spirits, and transform spirits with things, and spiritual things depend on each other, endlessly. ”
Seeing Zhang Zhao's face full of confusion, he explained: "Except for some wonderlands created by nature in heaven and earth, all kinds of spiritual energy born of all things will flow and disappear at will. However, the spirit gathering array can make the spiritual energy not disperse, and the things in the array will become more and more prosperous after benefiting, and so on, and so on, you can create a blessed land. ”
"Ordinary cultivators won't notice this subtle change, but the more time passes, the more the subtleties of this formation will manifest themselves. Even now, your spiritual cultivation is much faster than others. ”
"The place where you and the old man met was a spirit gathering array, my brothers used flesh and blood as a guide, binding countless souls to gather spiritual energy, compared to this array, it can be described as a world of difference. But it is precisely because the aura there is extremely strong that the old man has been sweeping the tomb for decades, and he can realize the thunder seal method by watching the thunder and lightning Tianwei. ”
Dao Tianya took the wine jar in Zhang Zhao's hand and slapped it open and took a big sip: "Yesterday, when I was sealed, I found that the aura here was extraordinary, and Brother Zhuo must have noticed it. He raised the jar of wine in his hand: "Aura is like this wine, those people can drink one jar, although we can drink ten jars, but in the rest of the place we can only accumulate one jar or two jars before we can shoot." ”
"It's different here, they can only drink one jar, but we can drink ten jars together, and the superior will naturally make a judgment. Zhang Zhao listened and asked, "The two people killed by Senior Zhuo can also drink ten altars?"
Dao Tianya laughed: "After drinking ten jars of wine, some people indulge in singing and chanting poems and paintings, but some people are drunk and can't wake up for a long time. The same thing can exert different power in the hands of different people. What's more, Brother Zhuo's cultivation is far above me, although he is also in the realm of incarnation, there is also a difference between superior and inferior. If the old man can drink ten altars, Brother Zhuo is afraid that there are more than twenty altars. ”
In the past ten days, the good news from all over the place was transmitted back one after another, and the strange soldiers of Guizhu Mountain stood out, easily sweeping away the Wanhua Pavilion, which had few cultivators in the Yin and Yang Realm. Then he joined forces with the Red Maple Sect of Xuanmu City and broke into Chibai City with overwhelming momentum.
Although there were dozens of Yin Yang cultivators in Chibai City, among them there were less than five in the Dacheng realm, how could they stop the more than 100 elders of the three factions who were like wolves and tigers. The injured Yu Wendong and Hu Xiucheng fled in panic under their sacrifice and delay, and escaped from the Xuanmu Domain and were never heard from again.
Looking at the billowing smoke rising from the Yuwendong Mansion in Chibai City, Lu Wanchen and Long Huaigu gritted their teeth and felt that their remaining hatred was still gone. Gui Zhengyang, who has gained a lot these days, said comforting words when he saw this: "Two, now that the overall situation has been decided, let's think about how to deal with the aftermath and stop dwelling on the past." ”
"It's a pity that those two guys ran away. Long Huaigu sighed: "I didn't kill the two of them, Brother Lu and I are like stalks in our throats, and this evil breath can't come out." ”
Gui Zhengyang waved his hand: "The Dragon City Lord's words are not good, Gui feels that the situation of the two of them at this time is only more uncomfortable than death." Hundreds of years of inheritance are ruined, what should you and I do?"
"Listening to Lord Guishan say this, I really feel much more comfortable. Lu Wanchen and Long Huaigu felt that this was also the case: "This time, the Lord of Guishan will help you, please accept a gift from the two of us." ”
Gui Zhengyang laughed and stepped forward to stop: "Gui can pick up a big bargain this time, even if there is no me, Chibai City and Wanhua Pavilion are not your opponents." He leaned closer to the two and whispered, "In my opinion, we should think of a way now, and the relationship with Lingxiao's Zhang Zhang Zhaolala is real." ”
In addition to visiting the injured elders these days, Zhang Zhao also went to the lake to chat with Dao Tianya. Accidentally saw him transform into a giant ape and talk to two monkeys, and even Dao Tianya felt incredible.
What they didn't expect was that the two monkeys also behaved differently in the conversation with Zhang Zhao, and their black faces were no different from before, but Xiaobai could understand more from Zhang Zhao's ho. In a few days, I was able to understand many complex questions.
The monkeys pick wild fruits all year round and pile them in the deep recesses of the rocks, and the fruits that cannot be eaten will be turned into wine. Seeing that Zhang Zhao carried wine to Dao Tianya every day, Xiaobai tasted it and understood the general meaning, Zhang Zhao taught it to dress up for only two days, and it dragged a gourd of wine out of the dense forest.
Zhang Zhaohe said that Tianya was amazed and feasted, there are many kinds of melons and fruits in the forest, and the taste of the wine that Xiaobai brings back each time is different in sweet and sour. More than ten days have passed, and some of the things he often says can be understood by Xiaobai, who doesn't need to transform into a giant ape, and he can also do it for him when he goes to the back kitchen to get wine and food.
In less than a month, the situation in the Xuanmu Domain was already very clear, and Chibai City was successfully taken over by the three factions, and normal traffic was resumed. In order to appease the merchants, several people in Longhuai Valley discussed and decided that they would not take a penny for passing through within three months. The Wanhua Pavilion had long since been razed to the ground, and the businesses of the two factions had been divided evenly.
Lu Wanchen personally led people over and ceremoniously took Lu Junjie and Mo Suyan back to the Red Maple Sect. Although the momentum is not as good as before, and there are not many people sent to Lingxiao to send his relatives with the same loss, this family affair was finally completed smoothly.
The battle on Lingxiao Peak spread along with these things. Although the bloody battle that took place in Xuanmu City also played an important role in turning the situation around, after all, only a few elders in the Dragon Mansion survived, and the battle of Lingxiao was seen by hundreds of pairs of eyes.
After the preaching of those surviving merchants and the elders and disciples of several factions, the whole thing quickly spread through the Wuxuan with the footprints of the caravans everywhere. Many rumors are inevitably exaggerated, but the ice sculpture on the side of the Lingxiao Hall really makes everyone believe all this.
The cultivators of the Yin and Yang Transformation Realm were named immortals, which was naturally different, and the ice cubes in which Tang Hao was placed had not melted in the slightest after the wind and sun after the moon. Chang Qingzi was busy and didn't think about what to do, so the cold ice sculpture stayed where it was.
The sects and merchants from all over the country who came to visit thought that Lingxiao had a heart to stand up for power, and the dozens of Wuxuan cultivators who came to Wen Xun saw the ice sculpture and knelt down in front of the hall, and thanked Lingxiao for avenging their blood and revenge.
It turned out that Tang Hao was born lewd, and he liked to rape and insult young and beautiful female cultivators, and afterwards he also froze the female cultivators naked ** into ice cubes and displayed their corpses in public, and they watched it in detail. All of these cultivators had relatives and friends who were insulted and killed by him, and although they hated them to the core, they were too far apart to take revenge.
Only then did Lingxiao and everyone understand the reason why Zhuo Xuhan dealt with Tang Hao like this. Gu Xianrong and the girls were also secretly frightened when they found out, if they hadn't escaped the trouble of destroying the door this time, the consequences of falling into the hands of this person were really unimaginable.
The most concerned among those rumors is naturally Zhang Zhao's life experience, and the rumors after the Panlong Society are already bizarre, and the horizontal death of the two Yin Yang Transformation Realm cultivators on Lingxiao is even more miraculous.
Zhang Zhao didn't know that his reputation was better than before, he accompanied Dao Tianya to eat and drink by the lake every day, listened to a lot of Dao Tianya's insights in cultivation, and felt that he had also benefited a lot from it.
A square rune slowly lit up in front of him, as if there were countless small electric lights filling it, and Dao Tianya was not emitting, allowing Zhang Zhao to carefully see the condensation of the thunder seal. Zhang Zhao stared at it for a long time, and although the shape of the rune formed by the sword light in the air was good, there was no thunder and lightning power released.
"What's going on?Why can't I do it?" Zhang Zhao tried several times and couldn't get his wish, so he had to give up, and Dao Tianya laughed: "Didn't I tell you earlier, the magic is to comprehend the essence of it yourself." Seeing the same thing in the eyes, everyone feels differently. ”
"In your hand, it's just a sword light, but in the old man's heart, it's born from the interaction of several spiritual powers. Dao Tianya didn't even raise his hand, the square rune in front of Zhang Zhao's eyes changed direction slightly, a flash of lightning flashed, and more than 20 big fish floated silently on the lake.
Xiao Bai and Heimi, who were waiting next to him, jumped into the lake, scrambling to catch the fish, and then waited for Zhang Zhao to roast it. In the past two days, Zhang Zhaoyou wanted to learn the Thunder Seal Method, although Dao Tianya did not hide his selfishness, he could not comprehend the mystery of how to make several kinds of spiritual energy produce electric light.
"The longer you practice, the more important it is to feel. Some introductory principles can be taught, and the rest is all up to oneself to comprehend. Zhang Zhao cleaned up the fish in his hand while listening, and asked unwillingly: "Then how can I hurry up?"
Dao Tianya smiled lightly: "If you have to endure hardship, you will become a master." This is the method of penance. Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles. It is the law of travel. No matter what kind of Tianzhong strange materials, they are inseparable from these two cultivation methods. ”
When he said this, he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, although Brother Zhuo's cultivation is high, I see that he looks depressed, but what is the sad past?" Zhang Zhao felt that there was nothing to hide, so he roughly told Zhuo Xuhan and Jiuyou about it.
Dao Tianya looked at the sky for a long time after hearing this, and it was not until Zhang Zhao handed the fish meat to him that he sighed: "I have heard the suffering of the Nine Shades for a long time, and I didn't expect it to reach such a point." Compared to the old man who has spent these decades alone, it is not much better. ”
The two chatted while eating, Zhang Zhao had only been to the two cities of Jiuyou, but when it came to the darkness, it was still fresh in his memory, Dao Tianya was thoughtful after hearing it, and after eating the fish and meat, he sat cross-legged and silent, and even the wine jar that he never left his hand was put next to him and did not move.
Zhang Zhao said goodbye and went back, but he didn't expect that when he came the next day, he saw that Dao Tianya still maintained the same posture as yesterday: "Dao senior, what's wrong with you?" Dao Tianya slowly turned around: "Boy, I thought about it all night, or I left today." ”
"Didn't you promise me to stay on Lingxiao?How long has it been since you had to leave, do you think there's something wrong?" Dao Tianya saw that Zhang Zhao was anxious and explained: "It's not that it's bad, it's really good." ”
"On that day, in order to save people's lives, the brothers died, although they didn't blame me, but the old man really couldn't feel at ease. Dao Tianya's eyes flashed with determination: "Always thinking about what to do to attest for their sinful karma, now is an excellent opportunity, the old man plans to go to Jiuyou and his party." ”
"Yesterday, I heard you tell me about the Nine Shadows, and the old man had an idea. Dao Tianya looked up at the sky: "If you set up a formation to make the Nine Shadows a little brighter, maybe it can make their lives a little better." ”
Zhang Zhao was pleasantly surprised: "Really, Dao senior, what method do you have?" Dao Tianya stretched out his hand and compared: "The old man has been observing your Lingxiao Spirit Gathering Formation these days, and I heard what you said about the Nine Shadows Rejecting Beasts yesterday and I had some inspiration. ”
"Those brothers of mine are cultivating with souls as the attraction of spirits, and the old man has already experienced it in the array for decades, if you set up a large array like your Lingxiao, and gather millions of beast souls to burn and shine, maybe you can temporarily relieve the suffering of darkness. ”
Zhang Zhao was ecstatic in his heart, although the matter between him and Nie Wanqing was not completed, he was also a little worried, not to mention that there were still wedding clothes and Ye Qinghe in the Nine Shadows who had a great relationship with him, if what Dao Tianya said could really succeed, it would undoubtedly be a great joy for the benefit of all people.
"You don't have to worry about it, whether this is successful or not, I will come back here. Dao Tianya stood up with his hands behind his back: "The old man goes, boy, let's do it for myself." ”
"If he was really my son, wouldn't he be so troublesome?" Long Huaigu in Xuanmu City listened to Gui Zhengyang's ridicule with a helpless face: "Old Long, I also thought about marrying my daughter to him, why do you even believe this kind of nonsense?"
Lu Wanchen and Gui Zhengyang looked at each other and laughed: "Brother Long, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just that there are too many such rumors recently, and I've heard them for a long time, and even I think there is some truth." ”
"Bullshit. Long Huaigu scolded and said: "But Zhuo Xuhan has helped him with powerful people who have disappeared for more than 20 years, this kid really has some doorways, and that Dao Tianya that we have never heard of, how did they all come together?"
Gui Zhengyang slapped the table and had an idea: "Yes, Dragon City Lord, you can mention the family matter again." Isn't this just a good idea?" Long Huaigu suddenly opened his mouth wide: "Ah? I still propose marriage? I felt that this old face was a little unbearable last time." ”
"Hey, Dragon City Lord, think about it, even if those rumors are all false, Zhuo Xuhan and Dao Tianya also happen to be there. But when he used the sword to transform into a demon beast, Gui and Brother Lu saw it with their own eyes, and their cultivation was even better than when they were in the Panlong Society. Such a kid, if Brother Lu and I had a daughter, I would have sent someone over to propose marriage. ”
Long Huaigu was moved by what he said: "But I mentioned it once, how can I open my mouth this time?" Gui Zhengyang laughed: "Dragon City Lord, you don't have only one daughter, last time it didn't work, just change it." ”
The expression on his face changed a few times, and Long Huaigu took the case: "Okay, I'll give up this old face and go to Lingxiao again." He looked at Lu Wanchen and Gui Zhengyang and said hatefully, "You two also have to accompany me." ”
At this time, the Xuanmu Domain had settled down, and the three of Long Huai Gu each brought a dozen elders to Lingxiao together, and Chang Qingzi immediately led the crowd to greet him when he learned about it. The four people in front of the welcoming platform went up the mountain together as a courtesy, and between words and deeds, the three of them had treated Changqingzi as an equal figure.
The ice sculptures standing quietly on the side of the hall made the three of Long Huaigu have an awe-inspiring meaning. Tang Hao's cultivation is only stronger than the Yin Yang Transformation Cultivators in the three sects, if he is measured, even if the elders of the Yin and Yang Transformation Realm of the three sects are on the same level, they will not be able to please Zhuo Xuhan in his hands.
When everyone came to the palace, Long Huaigu first proposed to share the proceeds after the destruction of Chibai City and Wanhua Pavilion to Lingxiao Yicheng, and then discussed the cooperation of several factions in the future. It wasn't until Changqingzi ordered someone to set up the wine that he mentioned it: "Head Changqing, please call Zhang Zhao to come, I have something I want to ask him." ”
Changqingzi sighed slightly: "It's really unfortunate, Zhang Zhao just left Lingxiao this morning, saying that he was going to travel alone." ”
