Chapter 404: The General Altar
Day 2.
Yang Xuanzi led the disciples of Longhu Mountain and twenty villagers to the main altar of the Descending Sect.
The main altar of the Descending Sect has been emptied, and there are only some minions left guarding the altar, and these minions are naturally not opponents when they meet Yang Xuanzi and others, and they are all subdued in a few times.
The villagers searched and brought back a lot of food from the Descending Gate.
These grains are all provided by the villages in the 100,000 mountains on weekdays.
Although the Descending Sect evacuated 100,000 mountains, there was too much food in storage, and a large part of it could not be taken away, so there were a lot of things left.
As soon as the news spread, the villages under the jurisdiction of the Descending Sect were overjoyed.
Many villages have also sent messengers to get in touch with the people of Wuyue Village.
This one, the Ghost Gu Hall.
Inside the house, the burning sandalwood is faintly lingering.
In the whole room, there is a fragrance that refreshes people's hearts.
If it weren't for the fact that this was the realm of the Ghost Gu Hall, I am afraid that just by feeling the atmosphere inside this house, I would mistakenly think that it was the abode of some immortal who is a master of the world.
The Gu Master sat on the seat with a grim face and didn't say a word.
As soon as he received the news of the evacuation of the Descending Surgery Gate, his mood fell to the bottom, but his face was not revealed.
The old Gu on the side seemed to have a heart with him, and the old look on his face added a bit of sorrow.
"Gu Master, now...... The Descending Gate has been evacuated, and I received news this morning...... The battle between Master Hu and Li Changsheng was beheaded, and the head was in Li Changsheng's hands, and many villagers in Wuyue Village witnessed it with their own eyes. Gu Lao said slowly.
The Gu Lord took a deep breath, his face became solemn, and he said, "I never thought that even the Descending Technique Sect would not dare to compete with Li Changsheng. ”
When Gu Lao heard this, he couldn't help coughing dryly.
This time, he coughed so badly that his lungs were about to come out.
After relieving for a long time, he regained his breath and said in a low voice: "Li Changsheng's power should not be underestimated...... Back then, Zhang Tianshi swept away the demons with the Mandate of Heaven, and there were still hundreds of soldiers and judges to follow, but now Li Changsheng has the strength of one person, and everywhere he goes, all evils retreat, and it is reasonable for the Descending Technique Sect to be timid. ”
The Gu Lord said: "The foundation of the Descending Technique Sect is deep, even if we leave these 100,000 mountains, Nanyang is also their place of refuge, but we are different, where else can we go if we leave here?" ”
Gu Lao's face changed, and he said, "Gu Master, we can go anywhere...... Didn't this Li Changsheng just attack us? The sea is wide and the fish jumps, the sky is high and the birds fly, our ability, wherever we go, can achieve a hegemony, but ...... You just need to endure it for a while, Gu Master, why do you have to sigh and mourn yourself. ”
"Oh?" The Gu Lord seemed to have a puzzled look on his face, and looked at the Gu Elder on the side.
Gu Lao settled down and said: "The land of Middle Earth is vast, there are endless mountains in the north, we can choose from, even in the south, the South China Sea, it is also surrounded by mountains and rivers, and there are many villages, which can still allow us to redevelop our power...... Otherwise, even if we go to that bustling city, with our ability, to build an empire, it is not impossible, our magic power is outside, I am afraid that I don't know how many profiteers want to offer us as gods, Gu Lord, why should you worry? Not to mention ......"
Speaking of this, Gu Lao paused.
The Gu Lord asked, "What's more? ”
Gu Lao said, "What's more...... How much can we enjoy in this mountain forest? The world outside is vast, and the glory and wealth are endless, and there is ...... It is the real holy place, not hidden in this mountain and wilderness. ”
After hearing this, the Gu Lord sighed, shook his head, and said, "I naturally know what you said, but what is the use of those glory and wealth outside?" It's not as pure as this mountain and wild place, and it's easy to practice. ”
"Gu Master, in the eyes of mortals, we are already like immortals, immortal and immortal, what difference is there in the matter of cultivation? What's more, our cultivation is different from that of the Taoist Buddha, and what we pursue is not the ascension to immortality, so why should we be confined to small sections? ”
Gu Lao spoke bitterly, in order to persuade the Gu Lord to leave the 100,000 mountains.
Of course, he knew that the Gu Lord was too stubborn and refused to leave this place where he had lived for hundreds of years, just like some old people who refused to leave their hometown, even if there were thousands of changes outside, they also felt that the golden nest and silver nest were not as good as their own kennels.
Although Gu Lao was also happy to live in these 100,000 mountains, but now Li Changsheng's power had overwhelmed the people of the Three Sects, if he didn't leave here, I was afraid that the ending of the Ghost Gu Hall would be exactly the same as that of the Dark Witch Sect.
The Gu Lord pondered, but he didn't say a word.
Gu Lao was a little anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but continue: "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of running out of firewood...... Isn't this the reason for the evacuation of the Descending Surgery Gate this time? Gu Master ...... You are used to the life of idle clouds and wild cranes in the mountains, so after we leave here, we will only wait for Li Changsheng to disappear, and it will not be too late for us to return...... But if you insist on staying here, you are afraid of your life. ”
The Gu Master's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he said, "I want to fight him." ”
Gu Lao shook his head and said, "Gu Master, with all due respect, with your current magic powers, it is not enough to fight with that Li Changsheng...... You have a lot of blood in your heart, but when the day of your comeback erupts, you may not be in a hurry for this time and a half, now that the Dark Witch Sect has been forced to retreat, the Descending Sect has withdrawn, and our Ghost Gu Hall is unable to support it alone. ”
The Gu Lord looked at Gu Lao and said slowly, "If we have one more friendly army, can we fight with that Li Changsheng?" ”
"Allies?" Gu Lao was stunned for a moment and said, "Gu Master, where are the friendly forces you are talking about?" ”
The Gu Lord said, "As far as I know, that Houqing is also in these 100,000 mountains, and we can cooperate with him to deal with Li Changsheng together." ”
After hearing this, Gu Lao smiled coldly, shook his head, and said, "Gu Master, I'm afraid you don't know something!" ”
The Gu Master was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean? ”
Gu Lao said: "I received news that among the mountain ghosts and spirits among the 100,000 mountains, there are witnesses that Hou Qing has left the 100,000 mountains, on the day Li Changsheng killed the Black Witch Sect......"
The Gu Master's heart trembled, and he couldn't believe it.
Gu Lao said: "Hou Qing and that Li Changsheng, there was a battle a thousand years ago, as we all know, they are mortal enemies, but now even Hou Qing retreats without a fight, Gu Master ...... The friendly army you want, I'm afraid you won't be able to come. ”
In the Gu Lord's eyes, a glimmer of light flashed, as if he had suddenly figured out something, stood up, and said coldly: "Pass the order, disciples above the middle level of the Ghost Gu Hall, pack your luggage, and withdraw from the 100,000 Mountains with me tomorrow." ”
Old Gu showed joy on his face, stood up, and hurriedly said, "Yes." ”
