After Qi Xuansu and his party left the Mori Jinya of Phantom Hime, they finally entered Hita County of Toyotomi Province, where the Toyotomi Prime Minister's sphere of influence is located.

When I got here, it was really different, at least I couldn't feel the hostility on the surface, whether it was an official or an ordinary civilian, they were very respectful.

Just came to Hita City unimpeded, the city lord personally greeted him, and after learning the identity of Qi Xuansu, he treated everyone very respectfully, and set up a banquet to entertain Qi Gaogong and the mages.

However, this is not the key, the most important thing is that Hita Castle has a Taoist temple affiliated to the Fenglinzhou Provincial Mansion, which has a Taoist priest stationed in it and a "Xunfu Array", which can communicate with the Fenglinzhou Provincial Mansion in Xiujing.

With the gradual tension of the situation in various places, the Fenglinzhou Taoist Mansion has also upgraded and iterated the Taoist temples in various places, and set up a sub-mirror that can be used repeatedly, that is, two mirrors of equal height, the Taoist temples in various feudal cities have sub-mirrors, and the Taoist palaces of Fenglinzhou Daofu have female mirrors, as long as the two sides stand in front of the mirror, they can communicate freely, and after improvement, the sub-realm can also take the initiative to contact the mother mirror, which is more convenient than the correspondence of the "signal array".

As for why it is rare to see the mirror in the Central Plains, in fact, the reason is very simple???????????????, any technological innovation is always used in military affairs first, and then gradually promoted to other fields after it is completely mature. In this Fenglinzhou war, the mirror of the mother and son is the first to appear, and there was no one before.

Stationed here is a deacon and Taoist priest, no matter the grade, or position, are under Qi Xuansu, although Qi Xuansu is not a person from the Fenglin Continent Daofu, if you really want to talk about it in detail, he can also not obey Qi Xuansu's orders, but generally speaking, there are few such upright people, this deacon will naturally not disobey Qi Xuansu's orders.

Qi Xuansu asked to open the mirror and talk to the camp, the deacon and Taoist priest did not say a word, and took Qi Xuansu to an underground secret room, where there was a spiritual officer guarding the door, and the spiritual officer and the deacon Taoist priest each took out half of the key before opening the heavy stone door.

In this underground secret room, it is not unusual to have a mirror waiting for someone. It's just that Qi Xuansu didn't expect that the mirror was the same width as the wall, so almost the entire wall was a mirror.

It is not deliberately set to be so large, but in order to be able to use it repeatedly, there are too many talismans that need to be depicted, which creates such a large volume. As for why the meridian and fish talisman can compress the volume, the reason is not complicated, the same person who portrays the talisman, there are differences in realm cultivation and skills.

】

In front of the mirror there is a chair for people to sit on.

Qi Xuansu sat on this chair.

After the deacon Taoist priest turned a Taiji-shaped disc, he whispered: "Deputy Hall Master Qi, I have sent a request to the Taoist government. I also explained the specific situation through the 'Signal Array'. ”

Qi Xuansu nodded.

The deacon and priest withdrew.

After a few moments, layers of ripples rippled on the mirror's surface, like water waves.

Li Changge's figure appeared on the other side: "It's really good to see that Brother Tianyuan Dao is safe." ”

Qi Xuansu was not surprised.

Daomen has an advantage, after the war, in addition to going into battle in person, the high-level people will also let their own children go to the battlefield, instead of blindly letting ordinary Taoist priests or Taoist priests from Vientiane Dao Palace send them to death.

Although there are such and such reasons for the battle in Fenglinzhou this time, such as the dominance of Daomen and the fact that Taiping Dao wants to tie the other two to the chariot, it is an indisputable fact that Daomen Sanxiu and a supernumerary Qi Xuansu were all sent to Fenglinzhou.

Regardless of how much advantage Guanmen occupies, the battlefield must be much more dangerous than Yujing, Qi Xuansu just arrived in Fenglin Continent, he encountered the Baqi Snake, and he walked away in the Ghost Gate, and Qingwei Zhenren, who was the real person in charge of the army, suffered an assassination, which is all clear proof.

The granddaughter of the Heavenly Master, the granddaughter of the Earth Master, and the brother of the National Teacher have all gone to the battlefield, and it will be much easier to mobilize ordinary Taoist priests. It's nothing more than the word fairness.

Only by having the same desire can we be invincible.

Among the four, Li Changge was the first to arrive at Fenglinzhou, together with the vanguard team. Qi Xuansu was the second to arrive, Zhang Yuelu should already be on the way, and Yao Pei may be later because of his injury.

Qi Xuansu said: "There is Lao Yongyan's brother who is worried. ”

Li Changge asked, "What's the situation on Brother Tianyuan's side?" ”

Qi Xuansu will roughly talk about the experience along the way.

After Li Changge listened, he frowned slightly: "The route has deviated, and it stands to reason that the flying boat should not pass through Izumo Country." ”

Qi Xuansu was already a little tentative, because he suspected that Taiping Dao had secretly done something. However, Li Changge nodded calmly??????????????? Breaking this matter was a bit unexpected by Qi Xuansu.

Li Changge seemed to see Qi Xuansu's doubts, and instead said, "Brother Tianyuan Dao, you really returned to the Daomen, that is, the past two years, and you don't feel deeply about many things. I've been in the Dao Gate, maybe I can see it more thoroughly than Brother Tianyuan Dao. ”

Qi Xuansu said: "I want to hear it in detail." ”

"The three paths are actually a rather general concept, the Dao Gate is not a monolith, and the three paths are not either." Li Changge said, "Brother Tianyuan Dao has probably heard a saying, in terms of strength, Taiping Dao is far from being the first of the three Dao, but why is Taiping Dao extremely strong, even above the other two?" Because Taiping Dao is the most united, with the least infighting and the least internal friction. I don't know what Brother Tianyuan Dao thinks of this statement? ”

Qi Xuansu said: "I agree with this statement, there is no need to say more, just look at Zhang Qingxiao's situation, you can see it." As for the Quanzhen Dao, there are many families, each with its own plans and calculations, and I can be regarded as having seen one or two. It's Taipingdao, and I really haven't heard of any infighting. ”

This is already a suspicion of being superficial, but what is said is not confidential, and it is not a taboo.

Li Changge said: "On the last trip to the imperial capital, Brother Tianyuan Daoist probably noticed that in fact, the Li family is also full of princes, so there will be no infighting, but it is common to watch other people's jokes and stand by and watch. What I want to say is that the Daomen is very large, and it is generally divided into three roads, just like the great river is divided into Jiangnan and Jiangbei, in fact, there are also the northwest, Liaodong, Jiangnan and Jiangbei can also be continuously subdivided. ”

Qi Xuansu probably understood.

The reason why Li Changge said so much was just to express a meaning. The three rivers are just rivers, and there are many tributaries below, and it is impossible for the rivers to know where the tributaries go. This matter may not have been done by Taiping Dao, the most urgent issue of Taiping Dao at the moment is to win the battle in Fenglinzhou, and everything else is secondary, and they must be relied on. In this case, Tai Ping Dao will try to avoid infighting, so Tai Ping Dao has little motivation.

On the other hand, some people within the Righteous One, or some people within the True Path, have greater motivations. Those who are afraid of Zhang Yuelu, those who are afraid of the Yao family, those who have an enmity with Qi Xuan, and even those who have an enmity with Qi Niang, all have this motive, and the battlefield of Fenglinzhou is an excellent place to exterminate the mouth, there are too many scapegoats, and there are too many cover-ups, and afterwards you can put the charges on the heads of the local forces in Fenglinzhou, and these local forces are destined to be wiped out, and then there will be no proof of death, or a monster like the Baqi Snake, will it still be able to defend itself? No matter how bad it is, there is still Taiping Dao to bear the charges.

The fact that the Heavenly Master and the Earth Master expressed goodwill towards Qi Xuansu did not mean that everyone in the Zhengyi and Quanzhen Path would be of the same heart and mind as Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu also had this suspicion earlier, but as Li Changge said, his foundation in the Dao Sect was too shallow, and it was difficult to judge which force did it.

If you want to find out the truth of the matter, it is not something that Qi Xuansu can do, so you have to ask Qi Niang or Donghua Zhenren to take action, or Zhang Yuelu's side will be shot by the Heavenly Master, so there is a little possibility.

Qi Xuansu no longer dwelt on this topic, and instead said: "Brother Yongyan Dao, I have five wounded here, namely Li Mingshan from the Ancestral Hall, Lu Yuting from the Huasheng Hall, Qian Daren from the Tiangang Hall, Tang Yongshui from the Tianji Hall, and Han Yongfeng from the Liaodong Provincial Mansion. ”

"No problem, I'll arrange it." Li Changge agreed very happily, "Feizhou is the latest??????????????? They can arrive at Hita Castle tomorrow, and ask Brother Tianyuan to take care of them for another day. ”

"No problem." Qi Xuansu nodded.

Li Changge said: "If Brother Tianyuan Dao has any other needs, you can speak. ”

Qi Xuansu said: "Not for the time being, when I returned to Yujing from the imperial capital, I was summoned by the national teacher, and the national teacher taught him to be unanimous with the outside world and work together in harmony, I deeply believe it." ”

"So that's it?" Li Changge asked.

"That's all. Get in touch if you have something. Qi Xuansu ended the conversation.

The mirror returned to its original appearance, without Li Changge's figure, only showing Qi Xuansu sitting on the chair.

Qi Xuansu didn't think that the relationship between him and Li Changge was turning, but it was just a special situation in a special period, which could be barely understood as that the brothers were insulted by the wall, and once the foreign enemy retreated, the brothers would still have to turn their faces.

What's more, Li Changge is a person who is very deep in the city, and he is always gentle and polite, even if he decides to kill people, he still won't speak harshly, let alone say anything cruel, he and Li Tianzhen are two completely different people, and it may be difficult to judge his thoughts through his attitude.

Qi Xuansu left this place and told the other people about the situation.

Several people were very happy, and when they returned to the camp, not only was it safe, but there was also a temporary branch of the Chemistry Hall, which could ensure that there were no hidden dangers.

Qi Xuansu returned to his room and found that Zhang Yuelu could be contacted with the "Zhongji Sutra", which meant that Zhang Yuelu had left Yujing in Kunlun and was getting closer and closer to Fenglinzhou on this side of the East China Sea.

A few days ago, it can also be contacted, but because the distance between one east and one west is too far, there is a great delay problem in the warp, which is manifested in the fact that the light curtain is always rippling but does not present a portrait, if it is in the Central Plains, a Taoist mansion is equivalent to a "beacon", which can continue to extend the distance, so most of the time there is no delay problem.

However, the fish talisman still can't contact Qi Niang, and it seems that the scope of the fish talisman is consistent with the scope of the Qingping Society's "Five Ghost Handling Method". It doesn't have much to do with the distance, as long as it is within a fixed area, no matter how far away it is, it can be contacted, and out of the regional range, even if it is close at hand, it cannot be contacted.

Qi Xuansu unfolded the "Middle Pole Sutra" and began to contact Zhang Yuelu.
