A group of officials suggested that a succession ceremony for the city lord should be held on the same day, so that Ximen Wen could succeed to the position of city lord as soon as possible and stabilize the overall situation

Ximen Wen doesn't like extravagance and waste, and everything in the herald ceremony is simple, just at the succession ceremony.

A soldier in armor and covered in blood rushed all the way into the city lord's mansion and shouted

Military Emergencies

Military Emergencies

In Yecheng, there are military regulations that anyone who shouts an urgent report of the military situation will give way to him, and this soldier entered the main hall unimpeded, knelt in the main hall and hurriedly began to read out the emergency report

"Beiling raised more than 200,000 troops to attack Fuling Pass, Fuling Pass was in an emergency, and quickly sent troops to reinforce it."

Ximen Wen said angrily

"Everyone, the people of Beiling have deceived me too much in the country of Dayan, and they have been attacking all year round, and now that my father is newly mourned, the people of Beiling must want to take advantage of the undecided situation of Yecheng to take Fuling Pass by surprise. What should we do in the face of an invading enemy?"

Everyone shouted in unison

"Fight to the Death"

"Fight to the Death"

"Fight to the Death"

The main hall of the City Lord's Mansion fell silent at first, as if everyone was waiting for the City Lord to give orders.

After a moment of silence, he made up his mind

"The herald ordered the Yunlu general Wang Zheng to lead 50,000 troops to aid Fuling Pass, and the Guide general Qin Zhan to lead 50,000 troops to aid Fuling Pass. Organize peasant soldiers, feign reinforcements, and create a steady stream of reinforcements to deter the enemy. The rest of the troops are ready to enter a state of war and wait for orders at any time, withdraw the people outside the city to the city, and if the Fuling Pass is broken, all the people will be soldiers and defend Yecheng to the death."

After that, he took out two city lord's edicts and handed them to the two heralds, ordering them to pass the orders quickly.

If he had to coordinate the overall situation, Ximen Wen would have personally put on the battlefield to attack the invading enemy. After that, Simon Wen announced

"Today's ceremony is over, just wait for our army to defeat the invading enemy in the coming day, and then have a good drink with everyone. All the officials are back in their places, each performing his duties, and the whole city is full of scouts, and I want to know the first-hand military information at all times."

There is dust, Lin Yaqing and Xu Yin are also at the succession ceremony of the city lord at this time. Seeing that Ximen Wen dispatched troops calmly and calmly, and the arrangements of all parties were orderly, he was amazed by it.

Lin Yaqing patted Youchen's shoulder and said

"Youchen, you have chosen a master for Yecheng, the merit is immeasurable, you said that accumulating virtue and doing good deeds are expected to improve the Buddha's cultivation. Can such a great merit make you move up to a higher realm?"

Youchen knocked Lin Yaqing's head

"You think about it with your smart mind, merit is invisible and invisible, how to turn it into a substantial cultivation, Buddhism accumulates merit to improve the state of mind, and the state of mind is complete and will naturally enter the next realm, I am just adding fuel to the fire, the choice is made by themselves."

Xu Yin said

"Youchen is too modest, without your help, the current city lord is not Uncle Wen, but Uncle Wu, and now it seems that Uncle Wen's talent is far better than Uncle Wu."

Lin Yaqing took over and said

"With dust, everyone can accumulate merits, but not everyone can practice Buddhism."

There are dust tunnels

"Naturally, everyone can practice Buddhism."

"Then if you are still vulgar, are you still cultivating this body?"

"That's natural, the Buddha is in the human heart, and cultivating the Buddha is cultivating the mind, not in the skin."

"Really? Will you be vulgar then?"

"Perhaps, into this red dust, I can't go back, the day is green and the Buddha is bitter, it is better to accumulate virtue and do good. Whether it is vulgar or not, it is only a thought. Isn't it all mundane things that I am in charge of every day, and I am now a layman."

"There's a mundane thing right now, you won't ignore it, right?"

"Then naturally I won't care, Yaqing, who knows me, let's start immediately."

After speaking, the two walked towards the door with a clear heart, leaving Xu Yin with a blank face.

Xu Yin asked after the two of them

"Where are you going?"

The two said in unison

"On the Battlefield"

Xu Yin will only realize this, if he says that he wants to go to the battlefield, he will naturally follow, after all, he is behind the gate.

After Fuling Pass is a million soldiers and civilians, Beiling people are thirsty for killing, if Fuling Pass is broken, the current strength of Yecheng is simply not enough to defend the city, and millions of soldiers and civilians in Yecheng will be slaughtered.

This is the reason why Youchen has to go to war.

With the cultivation of three people, they arrived at Fuling Pass in only one hour. At this time, the soldiers were in chaos, the gate of Fuling Pass was closed, and no one was allowed to enter the pass except for reinforcements, Chen Xin, the guard of the south gate of Fuling Pass, was a subordinate of General Xu Shi, and he knew Xu Yin. The three of them explained their intentions, and the three strong men joining the battlefield was undoubtedly a great help to defend the city, and Chen Xin warmly received the three of them into the customs.

At this time, the soldiers were in chaos, and no one paid attention to the three of them, and after entering the customs, the three went straight to the front line of the battlefield.

The Beiling army has already approached the city, and the three of them have just arrived at the top of the city tower. I saw a white-haired old Taoist priest on the city tower rolling thunder around him, and in an instant, a huge flash of light tore the sky, smashing towards the rear of the enemy army, and the enemy army fell in pieces, and the thunder and lightning seemed to rush from the depths of the vast space, like swords and swords, like a landslide and the ground cracked, and the enemy army was defeated

The old Taoist priest is the Taoist priest of the floating cloud view of Qingquan Mountain in Yecheng, and the Taoist name: Taoist idiot. Whenever the battle broke out at Fulingguan, he would come down from the mountains to help in the battle.

Although the Dao idiot is strong, he can only block the enemy army for a while, and even the strongest cultivator cannot control the situation of the battle, because the strong are also exhausted.

At this time, the Qi in the old Taoist priest's body had been exhausted, exhausted, and no one cared about the Taoist idiot in the chaos of the battlefield

"Old man, don't force your luck anymore. Your thunder method is amazingly powerful, and although the combination of yin and yang can produce a huge amount of energy, it consumes a lot of energy."

Dao Idiot looked at Youchen with a shocked expression

"Little master, you can actually penetrate the secret of the Dao Cultivation Thunder Method at a glance? If you cultivate, you will be able to rise to the top, and your future will be open."

Youchen was also puzzled that he didn't know the secret of Lei Fa at all, and responded

"I don't know the secret of the thunder law, my consciousness has been opened in the six consciousnesses, and I can perceive that when you cast the thunder law, yin and yang are opposites, and forcibly blending them naturally consumes a lot. Why don't you just use the yang energy to cast the yang thunder, and use the yin energy to perform the yin thunder?"

Youchen's words deeply touched the Taoist idiot, as if it opened the door to a new world, the Taoist idiot is not very talented, but he has been obsessed with cultivation all his life, and now it can be regarded as a small achievement. Everything that you say is based on Buddhist reasoning. But the Tao is natural, and everything is clear.

The old Taoist priest's face was pale at this time, the corners of his mouth twitched, his whole body curled up, his body trembled violently, and his eyes were blurred, this was the sequelae of overdrawing the Qi in his body to perform the thunder method, as a healer, you Chen could see that the Taoist idiot was about to run out of oil at this time. Dao Idiot reluctantly got up and said

"Our Taoist cultivation has always been a combination of yin and yang, and since the beginning of my cultivation, what I have practiced every day is the blending of yin and yang, and the master's teachings are also the way of harmony of yin and yang. I never thought that I could use the Qi of Yang to cast Yang Thunder, and use the Qi of Yin to cast Yin Thunder. The little master already has his own unique understanding of the Tao, and it is a pity not to cultivate the Tao."

The old Taoist priest coughed as he spoke, and he coughed up blood, he reluctantly said

"I am old, I know that my time has come today, before I die, I want to see the yang and yin thunder in your mouth, I don't know if it can fulfill my wish."

Dao is obsessed with Dao, and seeing that Youchen's understanding of Dao is very peculiar, he desperately hopes to see the yang thunder and yin thunder in his mouth.

Youchen was a little difficult, but he just felt it, and said it casually, so he explained to the idiot

"Old man, this is embarrassing for me, I don't know anything about thunder, how can I cast yang thunder and yin thunder."

When the Taoist idiot heard this, he pointed his finger at Youchen's eyebrows, and Youchen felt that his brain had a lot more insights about Taoism, and even the mantras and techniques of Lei Fa. Only then did you wake up to the fact that Taoism has preached since ancient times, so he spoke out to stop it

"Old man, no"

"Don't interrupt me, for if you do, I'll die on the spot."

Half a moment later, the old Taoist priest finished his preaching and was dying.

"Little master, can I see you cast Yang Thunder and Yin Thunder once before I die?"

Youchen did not hesitate, according to the inheritance of the thunder method to perform the mantra, abandon the fusion of yin and yang, and use the yang qi alone to perform several yang thunder failures

The Taoist Qi and the Buddhist Qi themselves are of the same origin, but they are just energies that are free from the world. With the inheritance, it is also easy for the dust to use the thunder method.

After many attempts, I saw that the thunder was surging around Youchen, and a pure yang thunder was in Youchen's hands, and the whole body was translucent and free of impurities.

The old Taoist priest was extremely excited when he saw the yang thunder in Youchen's hands, and he had cultivated the thunder method for most of his life, but it was not as pure as the thunder method that others had used for the first time

The old Taoist priest motioned to Youchen to help him turn around and face the direction of Yecheng, and he looked at the direction of Yecheng affectionately

"There is my beloved there, and I have left her for the sake of the monastic, and now I regret it. When the war began, I came down from the mountain to protect the city where she was."

Youchen comforted the old Taoist.

"You've done your best, old man, and I'm sure she's forgiven you."

Youchen couldn't help but feel sorry for the Tao idiot in his heart

"There are thousands of kinds of love in the world, and love cannot be the most bitter."

The old Taoist priest slowly closed his eyes, he was too tired, and he had lived his life with deep guilt, but he also spent his life guarding that city and that person.

Youchen put the body of the Taoist idiot aside and took the place of the old Taoist priest. His thunder method is only a beginner and has no power, so naturally he will not retreat from the enemy with the thunder method. He can only fight by means of Buddhist cultivation.

His qi surged, and a huge palm appeared in the air, which was the great mudra of Buddhism. The handprints instantly slammed into the ground, and another wave of enemies fell.

When he cast his Mahamudra to kill the invading enemy, his faith in the precepts of Buddhism collapsed. If you don't kill the invading enemy, millions of soldiers and civilians behind you will be slaughtered, and if you kill the invading enemy, you need to break the ring of killing.

The Buddhist precepts are not allowed to kill one person, but if you kill ten thousand people, you can save one million people.

The Buddha said to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground. At this moment, Youchen resolutely raised the butcher's knife, but he didn't feel that he was a demon, and he even felt that the Buddha in his heart had been sublimated.

It has nothing to do with the precepts, it is just by the heart, and if the heart is good, then everything can be done.

With the deepening of the Buddha's understanding, the lotus flowers around the dust paved the road, the Buddha illuminated, the crane danced, and the golden light sprinkled the earth. He crossed the Arhat realm and ascended to the Bodhisattva realm.

The vision of heaven and earth made the battlefield stagnate, everyone put down the butcher knife in their hands, the enemy commander saw this vision of heaven and earth, the soldiers had no intention of fighting, and saw the continuous reinforcements of the other party, he had no intention of fighting, so he could only temporarily withdraw his troops.
