Chapter 245: To Save or Not to Save?
There are mainly two kinds of talismans that Lin Yu wants, which are third-order high-grade talismans: Thunder Fire Demon Talisman and Purple Light Evil Extinguishing Talisman.
These two talismans are almost not a little difficult for Zhao Ping'an today.
In the past few decades, Zhao Ping'an's talisman attainments have gone further than at the beginning, not to mention making third-order high-grade talismans, even if it is a fourth-order middle-grade talisman, he has all his hands on it.
Of course, to deal with ordinary demon beasts, a third-order high-grade talisman is sufficient, unless it is against a terrifying demon beast that is comparable to a senior Jindan realm, a fourth-order talisman is needed.
After agreeing to Lin Yu, Zhao Ping'an began to make talismans.
And at the same time as he was making the talisman, a special guest was ushered in in the main hall of the Sword Sect.
This is a thin man in a hurry, his robe is stained with a lot of blood, and he looks very embarrassed.
"Cangning City Lord's Mansion Zhai Ji, ask to see the Sword Lord."
The man fell to his knees and shouted.
"Zhai Ji? Cangning City Lord's Mansion? ”
"This person is the son of the city lord of Cangning!"
The elders in the main hall looked at each other, and some recognized the origin of this person.
Cangning City is located 300 miles away from Juxian City, with a population of about 300,000, and it is also an important city in Nanjun.
The most important thing is that the Zhai family, where Zhai Dangkong, the lord of Cangning City, is located, has a certain relationship with the Sword Sect.
A long time ago, the ancestor of the Zhai family once worshiped under the command of the Sword Sect, but unfortunately, as the ancestor of the Zhai family fell into the throne, the Zhai family rarely contacted the Sword Sect, let alone sent the younger disciples of the Zhai family to the Sword Sect to cultivate.
"Young Master Zhai, you are no longer in Cangning City to be the son of the city lord, why did you come to our Sword Sect to ask to see the Sword Master?"
At this time, Elder Xu Wen stood up and asked Zhai Ji.
The sword master is not something that others want to see, especially in recent years, the sword master has been in retreat for most of the time, and most of the things are handled by the high-level elders of the sect.
The last time the sword master sent a message, it was also after learning that the beast tide was about to break out in Nanjun, and he asked people to inform the medicine garden to make corresponding preparations.
"Elder Xu, I have something important to ask to see the Sword Master."
"Cangning City was besieged by hundreds of demon beasts, the monks who protected the city suffered heavy casualties, and the entire city was in danger, and I also asked the masters of the Sword Sect to help and rescue Cangning City."
Zhai Ji did not hide it, and informed everyone in the hall of the crisis encountered in Cangning City.
"Hundreds of demon beasts besieging Cangning City?"
"Nanjun is really about to break out in the beast tide!"
"Most of the demon beasts are solitary creatures, and now there are hundreds of them, and the scale of this beast tide is afraid that it will be terrifying."
"There has been no beast tide outbreak in Nanjun for hundreds of years, and I didn't expect that there would really be a beast tide this time."
……
After learning the news, the elders of the Sword Sect all changed their faces and discussed a lot.
Hundreds of years ago, the demon beasts in the north of Great Qin went south, almost swept through most of the territory of Great Qin, and that time Nanjun also suffered the ravages of the beast tide, killing and injuring countless people.
The original Sword Sect paid a very terrible price in order to kill the raging demon beasts, and even the sword masters of the original generation died tragically under the claws of the demon beasts.
"Cangning City is in such a crisis, we are very sympathetic."
"But under normal circumstances, shouldn't you go to the Nanjun Mansion for help? Or go to the Tianxuan Holy Land, which is closer to your Zhai family, for help, no matter how you say it, it won't be your turn to come to our Sword Sect for help, right? ”
Elder Xu Wen frowned and said in a deep voice.
Since the fall of the Zhai family's ancestor, the Zhai family in Cangning City has not had much contact with the Sword Sect, but has continued to get close to the Tianxuan Holy Land, and many Zhai family disciples have joined the Tianxuan Holy Land.
"Elder Xu, I've been to the Nanjun Mansion several times."
"But the government has no time to take care of this matter."
"As for the Tianxuan Holy Land, they are even more closed!"
Zhai Ji's face was pale, and he said in a somewhat desperate and helpless tone.
As soon as Cangning City was besieged by demon beasts, he broke out to find the help of the two forces of the Nanjun Government and the Tianxuan Holy Land, but without exception, he was refused.
Nanjun is not only Cangning City was attacked by demon beasts, but there are also several places that have all fallen into the demon beast crisis, the power of the Nanjun government is limited, and there is no time to take care of Cangning City, as for the Tianxuan Holy Land, the mountain gate is closed, and it is none of my business.
He knelt in the Holy Land for three days, and then was thrown out.
Zhai Ji also went to several immortal cultivation families that were not weak, but all of them were rejected.
The demon beasts are raging, and the various immortal cultivation families are not enough to protect themselves, and there is a reason to allocate part of their forces to rescue Cangning City, and even if they are willing to allocate some people to support, it may not be effective.
The situation in Cangning City is too dangerous, and the slightest carelessness will cause many monks to fall, such a thankless thing, naturally no force is willing to help.
In desperation, Zhai Ji came to the Sword Sect in a circle, and he knelt here with the last glimmer of hope, wanting to persuade many strong men of the Sword Sect to support Cangning City.
"All the immortals of the Sword Sect."
"Cangning City has 300,000 people, if the city is broken, then countless people will fall in an instant."
"Please also ask you to rush to the aid of Cangning City for the safety of hundreds of people."
After Zhai Ji finished speaking in a pleading tone, he kowtowed heavily to everyone.
He had no other way, and now he could only pin his last hope on the side of the Sword Sect.
"This ......"
The elders of the Sword Sect looked at each other and fell silent for a while.
"What do you think?"
"Tell me what you think."
Elder Xu Wen's face was solemn, and he motioned for everyone present to talk about their opinions, at this moment, the sword master could not come out of retreat, and when encountering such an important matter, all the elders needed to discuss and decide together.
"Cangning City is hundreds of miles away from our Sword Sect."
"And it is still besieged by hundreds of demon beasts, even if we are willing to help, but if we don't send many Jindan Realm elders and hundreds of formal disciples, it will be difficult to resolve the crisis in Cangning City."
"The most important thing is that once we do that, our Sword Sect will become extremely empty, if there are strong enemies and demon beasts to attack at this moment, our Sword Sect is afraid that it will be destroyed in an instant."
Seeing that everyone was silent, Elder Maple Leaf was the first to stand up and said analytically.
His potential meaning was that he still did not support supporting Cangning City.
"What Elder Maple Leaf said makes sense."
"I don't think there's any need to take risks, besides, is there any benefit to our Sword Sect in supporting Cangning City?"
"In this cruel world, everywhere is about interests, we will definitely lose a lot of people to support Cangning City, and in the end it is just a flattery?"
Another elder echoed and said.
Soon, many elders in the main hall spoke, and most of them did not support the rush to the aid of Cangning City.
"300,000 lives are at stake, should we sit back and watch?"
"That's not a few lives, it's 300,000 lives."
"Can you really sit idly by and ignore your conscience?"
At this moment, a tall elder suddenly spoke.
His face was cold and resolute, and he was none other than the Jindan Realm powerhouse of Zhuxiu Peak, Elder Hu Feng.
As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent again, and everyone didn't know how to answer.
Although immortal cultivators can ignore the world without arguing with the world, they can ask themselves if they really let the demon beasts destroy 300,000 fresh lives in Cangning City, who can let go?
"I support the rush to Cangning City."
"Our Sword Sect has always paid attention to the principle of being upright rather than yielding, and saving 300,000 fresh lives is enough to be worth any benefit."
At this time, a pretty figure also slowly spoke.
It was Linglong who became a high-level elder of the Sword Sect many years ago.
Linglong is dressed in a purple dress, her figure is tall and graceful, and the aura she exudes is even more amazing than at the beginning, and it is obvious that her cultivation has been greatly improved over the years.
In the end, after a lot of discussion, the Sword Sect finally decided to support Cangning City, and other forces were unwilling to come to the rescue, so the Sword Sect insisted on asking for help.
What other immortal cultivation forces can't do, the Sword Sect is going to do.
Kendo practitioners have the spirit of not bending and moving forward bravely.
