In the past, the rebellion of the three princes of Huaxu State was quelled in less than half a year from beginning to end, and the most meritorious thing was naturally Chongxuanguan, he personally killed the Qingming Gong, and at the same time let the clan brother Liang Bao lead the troops to intercept the other two people, capture the two dukes in a battle, and behead thousands of people.

As far as Zhao Xiao knew, at that time, the three dukes raised troops, and in fact, they also received the assistance of many monks. Because Chongxuanguan previously used the imperial court to implement the system of pavilions, they wantonly attacked the cave mansion and seized the blessed land, which made Huaxu's large and small sects and scattered cultivators in China have a deep enmity with them.

These monks were disunited and alone, and it was difficult for them to resist in the face of Chongxuan Pavilion in the past. And during the Three Princes Rebellion, they finally joined forces for the first time. These monks may also have received the promise of the Three Dukes that if they take the throne in the future, they will have the benefits of rewarding and appointing them, and recovering the cave mansion.

In the face of such a situation, it is no wonder that Liang Tao made a brazen move, in addition to Qingming Gong, he also killed many monks by the way.

"Yang Liujun is actually the ...... of the Qingming Gong" Zhao Xiao was very suspicious: "But the legend back then that the Qingming Gong was killed by Liang Tao, and the whole family was killed in the thunder and fire, he was able to escape?" ”

"When Yang Liujun was still the Duke of Qingming, he already had cultivation." Mr. Huaiming said: "If it weren't for the heavy damage caused by the robbery, his cultivation would only be higher now. ”

Now Zhao Xiao's cultivation is still not as good as Yang Liujun when Xingluo County, Zhao Huang vaguely feels that even if this person has not yet become a fetal immortal, I am afraid it is not far away.

"Even if the Qingming Duke can survive under Liang Guoshi, why would he join the Red Cloud Capital?" Zhao Xiao was puzzled.

"He was rescued by others and fled from Huaxu without stopping." Mr. Huaiming snorted coldly: "Zhan Ming is soft-hearted, so he left him for healing." ”

Knowing these past events, Zhao Xiao sighed very emotionally, a member of the clan who was once in a high position was ruined by Liang Tao, and it is no wonder that he joined Chiyundu. And thinking back on Yang Liujun's words and deeds, I am afraid that what he hates in his heart is not only Liang Tao and Chongxuanguan, but also the entire Huaxu Kingdom.

"Yang Liujun has an extreme temperament, if he had forged a divine sword and took the initiative to leave Xingluo County, instead of rashly dealing with Liang Guoshi, if he wanted to take revenge in the future, why would he have no chance?" Zhao Xiao shook his head and said.

When Mr. Huaiming saw him like this, he suddenly said, "What? Hearing what you say, don't you want to kill Liang Tao too? ”

"I'm not ......"

Without waiting for Zhao Huang to finish speaking, Mr. Huaiming grabbed the white and said: "That's right, on the bank of the Cangshui River, you took the initiative to use yourself as bait to help Liang Tao lure out the demons and spirits, so that he could take over the great work of punishing the evil spirits alone." Even if it's his own son, it's nothing more than that. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Xiao was angry in his heart,

just pressed it and didn't have a seizure, explaining: "If you can destroy the evil spirits and demons, I don't mind conspiring with Liang Guoshi." ”

"I'm afraid that you're conspiring with him for more than that, right?" Mr. Huaiming said in a questioning tone.

Zhao Huang asked casually: "Then I don't know what Mr. Huaiming thinks, with my shallow cultivation, what can I conspire with Liang Guoshi?" ”

"Now that you have shown your true talent and hard work, don't learn from others to do anything to keep your eyes dirty, you will only show your clumsiness." Mr. Huaiming sneered: "Your Zhao Huang's cultivation is not shallow, not to mention that with your attainments in scientific rituals and legal affairs, not to mention Huaxu Kingdom, there are also a few in the world." ”

"Falsely praised." Zhao Xiao didn't feel happy.

"I want to advise you on one thing, Liang Tao may use some words about the world for the public, the selection of talents and abilities to confuse you, but this person's selfish desires are extremely heavy and difficult to satisfy, and his words are absolutely untrustworthy." Mr. Huaiming's expression was solemn: "He may be using your rituals, but have you ever thought about what your future situation will be if you get too involved?" ”

Zhao Xiao was silent, and Mr. Huaiming sighed and said: "Liang Tao may be able to share hardships, but he may not be able to share wealth and prosperity. You have to help him do great things, and when the work is done, he will not tolerate you.

Even if you don't want to go against him, if you get too involved, you will definitely know many secrets that outsiders don't notice. Based on this alone, even if Liang Tao doesn't kill you, his enemies will attack you. ”

Zhao Xiao raised his eyes and said, "Does it also include Your Excellency?" ”

"I want you to be clear, what Liang Tao is going to do." Mr. Huai Ming said: "If you have something unspeakable...... Then I'll ask you a question, and you just have to answer yes or no. ”

Zhao Xiao knew that this was a technique used to deal with the right questions that had been banned by the divine soul, but he had not actually been banned by Liang Tao.

Mr. Huaiming first asked: "The main purpose of the ritual ritual is to instigate the qi of heaven and earth, Liang Tao's cultivation is already at the peak of the world, and he still has to use your ritual and ritual affairs, which shows that the plan is very big." Does he want to follow the example of the sages and set up discipline and laws between heaven and earth, so as to restrain ghosts and gods and master yin and yang? ”

Zhao replied: "Yes." ”

Hearing this answer, Mr. Huaiming took a long breath and nodded heavily: "Okay...... Liang Tao and Chongxuanguan have wantonly attacked the large and small sects of Huaxu Kingdom in the past and invaded other blessed lands, are they preparing for this? ”

"Yes." Zhao Xiao nodded.

Mr. Huaiming asked again: "If Liang Tao succeeds in this matter, will he soar to become an immortal?" ”

Zhao Xiao couldn't answer, because up to now, there was one biggest problem, that is, Zhao Xiao still couldn't guarantee that he could arrange the rituals and rituals that covered the entire Huaxu Kingdom. As for the results of the magic exercise, Zhao Xiao couldn't be sure.

Seeing that Zhao Huang was silent and did not answer, Mr. Huaiming said: "That's right, whether others can become immortals, this kind of thing shouldn't be asked." ”

Mr. Huaiming asked again: "You helped Liang Tao because you were coerced and coerced?" Or is it voluntary? ”

Zhao Xiao also didn't know how to answer. If it is said that there is coercion, it seems that there is no coercion on the surface, but it is impossible for Zhao Xiao to disobey the other party. Liang Tao did not directly kill people and search for souls, but was more worried that the results obtained from searching souls with magic methods were not perfect, and it would be difficult to make up for the slightest omission, so it was better to let Zhao Xiao improve his cultivation while improving his magic skills.

But Zhao Huang is not all forced by Liang Tao, he himself has indeed fantasized about the Taoist kingdom of the world more than once, if his own rituals and rituals can really regulate the qi of heaven and earth, from then on make a piece of heaven and earth wind and rain, and the five grains are abundant, so that the people do not suffer from hunger, cold, and frost, and even everyone has to hear the fairy law, what a wonderful future is that?

"No wonder you helped Liang Tao." Mr. Huaiming seemed to understand something: "Even if he didn't promise you future achievements, what he wants to do is exactly what you want." Together, even ten cows can't pull it back. ”

Zhao Xiao arched his hand and said: "I don't know what Liang Guoshi's true intentions are, but there are some things I still want to try." If it doesn't work, I have nothing to say, if it succeeds...... We'll talk about that then. ”

For some reason, Zhao Xiao suddenly thought of the countless demons and demons on the banks of the Cangshui River, who had bent down to serve the Chongxuan Pavilion at the beginning, and their contributions must have been rich. But in the end, Liang Tao still wiped out the evil spirits.

If the Dharma is successful in the coming days, Liang Tao is in charge of the heavens and the earth, and the mana is far and wide, and Zhao Xiao has nowhere to hide, and it is easier for him to pinch himself to death than to pinch an ant.

"You can consider the pros and cons for yourself." Mr. Huaiming took out a bamboo tube from behind him: "This is what you want to see, I covered the area of Cangwuling, but I think the war will not be extended." If Jiuli insists on making a detour, we can stop it for you, but we will only drive them away, and we will not do anything superfluous. ”

Zhao Xiao hurriedly took the bamboo tube with both hands, and inside was a rolled up map, and he hurriedly bowed down and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Huaiming, with the help of this picture, and the battle will be profitable, and many soldiers will be able to return home safely." ”

……

Zhao Huang returned to Pujia Pass with Yutu, and was thinking about how to pretend to be a failed rescue and hated the enemy country, but before he entered the city, he received the news that the three pavilions were the first to rush to the aid of Pujia Pass.

"Meet the three firsts."

In the main hall of the mansion, Ding Feiyan, the first seat of the Mingxia Pavilion, the first Xuzhouzi of the Zhenzhen Pavilion, and the first Hua Yizi of the Feilian Pavilion, each with two or three disciples behind them, such a lineup made Zhao Xiao dare not be careless.

"Marquis Zhenming has worked hard." Ding Feiyan raised his hand lightly: "After you rectified Pujia Pass, you can see that the armament is rigorous everywhere. ”

"Don't dare, the three first seats are here in person, and the Pujia Pass is impregnable, and I expect that the Jiuli demons will not dare to attack." Zhao Xiao is not all compliments, and the first seat of the pavilion has come, and his pressure has been relieved a lot.

Ding Feiyan said: "A few of us came to Pujiaguan this time to help on the orders of the lord of the country. I heard that General Wei had already led the army to the battle, and I wanted to ask Marquis Zhenming first, what is the current battle situation? ”

Zhao Xiao hurriedly said: "At present, General Wei is confronting the army of Jiuli State in the base road, although there are small victories, but the enemy's forces still have an advantage, and repeatedly use suspicious soldiers, General Wei does not dare to take the enemy lightly. ”

"Can there be a master in the Jiuli Kingdom?" Xuzhouzi asked.

Zhao Xiao shook his head: "There is a report from the front line, and most of the Wu Zhu sent by the Jiuli Kingdom recently are mediocre. I didn't see the masters of the Ten Witches of Fengfu and the High Priest of the Holy Valley, maybe they were not out of the hidden army. ”

"This is strange, we heard Xin Taicheng say in Dongsheng before, there is a divine light in the direction of Jiuli Kingdom, which is clearly a great witch sacrifice to the gods, and the momentum is not small." Xuzhouzi was puzzled.

Zhao Xiao thought to himself, he had also heard of Xin Taicheng's ability, at the beginning, Chiyun was casting the divine sword in Xingluo County, and Xin Taicheng could also see the changes in the weather from afar in Dongshengdu, his words had considerable weight, and it was impossible to talk nonsense on military affairs.

"I accidentally learned that there was a witch in the Jiuli Kingdom that haunted the Honghuatan outside the Guan, perhaps looking for a suitable place to worship the ghosts and gods." Zhao Xiao said: "At present, that area has been controlled by our army, and if you want to come to the Great Witch to worship the gods, you have to go further south." ”

"This matter should not be taken lightly." Ding Feiya said to Zhao Xiao: "I don't know what arrangements Marquis Zhenming has? ”

"Don't dare." Zhao Xiao bowed his head: "I am also on the order of General Wei to guard Pujia Pass, so that the military grain and straw can be transported sufficiently. For the specific use of troops, General Wei should still be asked to make a decision. ”

Ding Feiyan asked: "Marquis Zhenming left the city before, I heard that it was to escort a batch of military quartermasters?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Xiao didn't dare to say much about the "robbery" of the military supplies, lest the other party delve into it and cause extraneous complications.

Fortunately, the three heads obviously didn't care too much, Ding Feiyan said: "In this case, it is necessary for us to go to the front line and go to General Wei's account to listen to the appointment." ”

Xu Zhouzi said: "Pujiaguan is also an important place, I'm afraid I have to keep someone to help Marquis Zhenming." ”

Ding Feiyan bowed slightly: "Then bother to leave the first seat of the Xuzhou Boat?" ”

"It's hard work on the front line." Xuzhouzi arched his hand.

"Wait a minute, I still have something here, please pass it on to General Wei." Zhao Xiao returned to the quiet room and took out a map of the mountains and forests that he had copied in the middle of the road.

"This is a map that I roughly drew after I came to Pujia Pass, and summoned the altar officials to search the terrain of the mountains and rivers." Zhao Xiao said: "This map is more detailed than all the current military sites, including the populated settlements in the mountains, large and small paths, river water sources, and also indicates the location of some demon lairs. ”

Ding Feiya unfolded the picture scroll and looked at it for a moment, as calm and calm as her, and raised her eyes to look at Zhao Xiao's gaze, and it was difficult to hide her shock: "Marquis Zhenming, you painted this picture?" ”

Zhao Xiao knew that this map was too detailed, and he came to Pujia Pass for half a year, even if he opened the altar every day, it was impossible to find out the geography of the mountains and rivers outside the pass. In this way, it can be seen that the disciples of Chiyundu have long been all over the villages and settlements outside the Guan, so that such a map can be drawn.

"I ...... After coming to Pujia Pass, he subdued a group of local goblins and spirits as altar soldiers, who had been entrenched in the mountains and forests for a long time, so that they could draw a map. Zhao Huang broke blindly.

Xuzhouzi nodded in praise: "It is worthy of being the Marquis of Zhenming, and it has always been the method of lowering the pen through the underworld, and it is difficult for those who are not sincere to achieve anything, and the slightest carelessness is to provoke the evil of yin and disturb people's minds." Marquis Zhenming can use it so superbly, and I sincerely admire it. ”

Zhao Huang had to show a reserved appearance of a junior, Xu Zhouzi should not defend himself, but with Zhao Xiao's current status, whatever he does, he can let the head of the pavilion explain the "deep meaning" for him.

In this way, Zhao Xiao inevitably thinks of Liang Tao, does a person like him, all his words and deeds have hidden meanings, and others need to speculate carefully? Zhao Xiao wasn't sure, at least Liang Tao asked Liang Hui to send the pot of orchids, which should have this intention.

But Zhao Xiao felt that this might be deliberately done by Liang Tao, but to make people feel that he was unfathomable, and he had to spend his energy thinking about how to deal with it, so that Liang Tao could leave enough room for himself. And he arranged for the doppelganger to face the court, obviously to make it impossible to measure its depth.

"It's very good, if you can figure this out, it can be seen that your enlightenment is deeper. UU Reading The Lingxiao quietly said, "This is why those who have the Tao should hide themselves." Showing wisdom and wisdom will lead to deception; By revealing desires, others will be able to set up temptations. The essence of the Immortal Dao is to be quiet and inactive, in addition to physical and mental practice, it is also the way of life. ”

"But according to what you say, although Liang Tao copes with the world through his clone, he shows his desire to pursue, and he is not too clever." Zhao Xiao asked.

"Liang Tao made himself almost the enemy of the whole country, which is his calamity, but it is also the cornerstone of his achievement. What's more, what he is asking for is not a pure immortal achievement. Lingxiao said, "There is a man who seems to be revealed, but he hides himself very deeply. ”

"Who?" Zhao Xiao asked curiously.

"Even you didn't see it, which shows how deep he is hiding." Ling Xiao reminded: "The real hidden is not in seclusion in the mountains, but in the fact that you have been with him for a long time, but you have been blind to his true intentions. ”

Zhao Xiao was awakened by this sentence and asked, "Do you mean it...... Teacher? ”

Ling Xiao said bluntly: "You haven't figured it out yet? That's it, there are some things I still don't break, you can think about it slowly. ”
