At the headquarters of the Linghua Sect, Lin General above the main hall roughly explained the content of the summons of the Red Stone Pass to the core elders, and then said, "I wonder if the elders have any opinions on this? ”

The Great Elder was the first to speak: "In any case, she is the granddaughter of my previous head, and the former head of the sect can be said to have worked hard for the sect, and when the sect was in the most dangerous time, he supported the entire sect alone, and did not fall into the hands of thieves, so even for the sake of the face of the former head, we should ask her back." ”

Feng Lu also immediately opened her mouth and chimed in: "Although she quit my Linghua Sect more than ten years ago and married someone from the Beitang family, it would be fine if she was doing well now, but she was obviously regarded as our spy, so I also think that for the sake of the face of the former master, she should be asked back, even if she pays some price." ”

Next, Feng Cheng, Gao Xuan and Li Haoran all agreed, but at this time, Zhou Kuohai said: "Sect Master, you tell us the truth, is this female doll called Su Ying a spy you planted in advance, if so, then her value to us will be very great, then we will redeem it at all costs, if not, then she has no value to the sect, just for the sake of the former head, then there is no value." ”

Hearing that Zhou Kuohai, who had always been impulsive, suddenly said such calm and analytical words, everyone was a little surprised, but they didn't think much about it, after all, Zhou Kuohai was the head of a big family before, Fang Lin lowered his head and thought about it, but still decided to tell the truth: "No, at that time, we only had the strength of about Liangyi Realm, and at that time, this sect was just a small sect, how could she think of calculating the Beitang family, it was purely her own choice." ”

Xue Mantian frowned and said: "In that case, have you ever thought that she is likely to be a spy of the Beitang family, after all, she is married to the Beitang family, and she has lived there for more than ten years." ”

Yang Mei also frowned and said: "I think Elder Xue's words are very reasonable, after all, women will basically put their whole hearts on that man after marrying, since Su Ying was willing to marry that kid from the Beitang family, then her heart should also be completely on that person." ”

Gao Xuan said with some disagreement: "This may not be, if nothing happens, Senior Sister Su Ying is wholeheartedly devoted to her man, I absolutely agree, but when her previous identity is revealed, it is likely that she will be suspected by everyone around her, and even her man does not believe her, so he directly tied her up and sent her to our army." ”

Zhou Kuohai said: "I'd rather kill the mistake than let it go, whether she is a spy sent by the Beitang family or not, it proves that she is not our person, we don't have to pay attention to it." ”

Yang Mei also spoke: "Maybe if we ignore it, we will do the little girl a favor, think about it, if we ignore it, it will prove that she has nothing to do with us, maybe her little man will not suspect her." ”

Seeing that Gao Xuan was about to open his mouth to argue, Fang Lin raised his hand and interrupted: "We can't start from the emotional aspect when we analyze things, but we must redeem Shu Ying for three reasons, one is that in any case, she is the granddaughter of the former head, the former head's contribution to the sect is undoubted, we should have taken care of his descendants, and at the same time, this is also telling other disciples that as long as they are dedicated to the sect, then the sect will definitely not disappoint him!" ”

Speaking of this, Fang Lin paused, let everyone digest their meaning and continued: "Second, now we are enemies of the Beitang family, and it can also be said that we are enemies of the entire Yeyue Empire, and our redemption of Su Ying is to tell them that we have installed a traitor in the Yeyue Empire, so that they will go to find it and guess, and it is very likely that a situation of rumors will be formed, even if it is discovered, it is not a big deal; Third, if she is really a spy sent by the Beitang family, we have to redeem her even more, because the information she wants to convey to the Beitang family is the news that we want the Beitang family to know, but we don't know how to disclose it reasonably, which greatly saves our energy! ”

After speaking, Fang Lin kept silent, looked around at everyone, waited for their reply, pondered for a long time, and said, "Sect Master is right, with these three reasons, we have to redeem Su Ying no matter what." ”

"So~~ We should redeem it within the range of how much ransom, no one will have the other lion open his mouth." Xue Mantian hesitated.

Everyone didn't speak, Fang Lin's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair a few times, and then he spoke: "In order to let the other party suspect that Su Ying has the possibility of being a spy, you can let them offer the price first, but our tolerance limit is fifty superb Yuan Jing, and Senior Brother Gao Xuan will go to negotiate this matter!" ”

When Gao Xuan heard this, there was a burst of joy in his eyes, and he quickly glanced at Gao Xuan and said with some amusement: "Senior Brother Gao Xuan, I know that you have a deep affection for the former head of the family, and you also feel guilty, and you want to compensate for that guilt on Su Ying's body, but you can't make no distinction between public and private." ”

When Gao Xuan heard this, his heart sank, and he quickly said, "I understand, but how will we treat her after we take her back?" ”

Fang Lin pondered for a moment and said, "With her current cultivation in the Nine Shadows Realm, she will reluctantly give the identity of an inner disciple." ”

After deciding on this matter, Fang Lin quickly changed the topic and said: "According to General Tianxiao's report, there are only 300,000 troops of the Beitang family outside Hongshi Pass, I estimate that Li Xianzong is preparing to attack my Hongshi Pass, Shangyang Pass and Qiyun Pass at the same time, so as to vigorously attract our forces, and then the army of the Shang State will appear from behind us and attack us, in order to create a better opportunity for the Shang State, in two days, Benzong will personally go to the Shang Yang Pass to meet Li Xianzong, and the matter of dealing with the Shang Army will be the sole responsibility of General Tianxiao, The Nine Great Elders sit in the sect to prevent the sneak attack of the small elite forces of the Shang Kingdom! ”

••••••

Huanhua Wetland, Dongxia Mountain Cultivation Holy Land, on the huge sword dance floor, a neat line of disciples is in front of a middle-aged man serving the royal blue sect under the leadership of shouting and practicing martial arts moves, although there is no earth-shattering, shocking power between the moves, but the real master can see from it that these people's moves contain good martial arts attainments, and there are countless changes hidden in a simple stab and a pick, if someone is to underestimate it, It's going to be a big loss.

In front of the main hall not far from the Sword Dance Flat, Pi Yanfei, Dongfang Meteorite, Luo Zhengming, Mengyi, Taka and Graphite looked at those diligent disciples with satisfaction, all with faint smiles on their faces.

"The Lord is very good about their personal disciples, talent is one aspect, the most important thing is that they don't have the arrogance of the personal disciples of other major sects, those who don't know must not know that they are all baby bumps cultivated by various core elders, hehe." Mengyi grinned as if she were a little girl in her twenties.

"Well, if a sect can have such a group of disciples, it will be a great luck, in the future, as long as they don't die young, they will be able to become the existence of the entire sect Optimus Prime." Luo Zhengming sighed.

"Yes, even if my Dongfang family was able to get such a group of disciples before, it would be something that should be cultivated, especially that fourteen-year-old little guy, his talent is simply one in a million, and Fang Lin is as if carved out of a mold." The Eastern Meteorite laughed.

Pi Yanfei's eyes lit up even more, and he slammed his mouth and said: "Grandma, how can this kid Fang Lin be, even if he is perverted himself, he can still find such a perverted little monster to be an apprentice, the old man has been looking for hundreds of years, and he has either been robbed by others or is not satisfied, you say how unfair this God is." ”

"Hehe, I said old man Pi, don't be indignant there, you are a casual cultivator, if you want to find an apprentice, you can only run all over the world, that can be compared with a sect, you don't have to think about these personal disciples, in fact, there are many talented guys among the inner disciples and core disciples, if it weren't for the fact that these core elders can only accept six personal disciples each, I'm afraid there will be a lot more lineup here, you might as well pick one, I think the Lord will definitely not refuse you." Taka said heartlessly.

"Hmph, what do you know, after seeing these little monsters, will you still look down on those second-level guys." Pi Yanfei rolled his eyes and said.

At this moment, a disciple wearing a red sect to serve quickly ran over and said, "Qiqi a few ancestors, Lord Yang Bing sent a message to say that there is something for a few ancestors to go to the Tianxuanling Hall to discuss. ”

"Well, it seems that your caravan is finally going to change dramatically, we've been here for so long, I thought those guys had given up stirring up trouble." Pi Yanfei raised his eyebrows.

"Hehe, let's go, Lao Mo, I'll leave it to you here." Eastern Meteorite Road.

"Go, go, I'm here to watch these kids practice martial arts, that's a pleasure, haha." Graphite laughed.

In the Tianxuanling Hall, Yang Bing immediately got up to salute when he saw the arrival of the five people, and after everyone nodded in response, Luo Zhengming opened his mouth and asked, "Is there any change in the Yeyue Empire or the Sect Alliance that you can't handle?" ”

"There are moves on both sides, the Yeyue Empire has sent a newly formed Mad Wolf Guard who is good at jungle warfare, the number is about 100,000, and it has already marched towards our Buyue Station, and the Zong Alliance has sent an elite army of about 30,000 people to march towards our Huiyu Station, but they are led by two powerhouses in the Life and Death Realm, and it is said that one of them is still a strong man in the Life and Death Realm, and it is estimated that he will be able to arrive tomorrow." Yang Bing said in a deep voice.

"How many troops do we have in Huiyuyi, and what is the strength?" Eastern Meteor asked.

"Huiyuyi has a total of 80,000 garrisons, of which only 10,000 are elites, and the others are ordinary soldiers, and the eldest brother and Qiu Jinfeng are in charge there." Yang Bing said this, smiled bitterly and said: "The low-level ancestors of our people should know that the sect is currently planning to destroy the Shang Kingdom, and it has to withstand the pressure of the Yeyue Empire, so it is difficult to send troops to help in the war, everything can only rely on ourselves." ”

Dongfang Meteorite nodded and said: "Pi Lao, Taka and Brother Luo's Seven Friends of Bishan, Huiyuyi will only have trouble you to go, as for the military command, Ying Qin will be responsible." ”

Pi Yanfei didn't say much, and walked towards the teleportation array with a few people, and Dongfang Meteor continued to ask: "How is the situation over there in Bu Yueyi, who is the general of the Crazy Wolf Guard, how is his cultivation, and what are his achievements, these can all be investigated?" ”

"We also have a total of 80,000 troops in Buyueyi, but half of them are elites, and Gu Li's predecessors are also sitting there, as for the general of the Crazy Wolf Guard, we only know that his name is Qin Wuhui, and we don't know anything else, it seems that he is a person who was deliberately hidden by the Yeyue Empire!" Yang Bingdao.

"Oh! Has the Yeyue Empire begun to use its hole cards, have the reinforcements from Linyue and Shangnan arrived, and what is the level? Eastern Meteor asked again.

"It's all here, each of the two countries has sent 100,000 troops, half of which are elite-level troops, and each has a low-level powerhouse in the life and death realm, and there are also seven powerhouses in the reincarnation realm, as if the two countries have made an appointment." Yang Bing said with a playful smile.

"Don't worry about him, as long as it's in place, okay, Bu Yueyi will go over and watch, you continue to mediate, hehe, you have to find a chance for those boys to experience experience." The Eastern Meteor laughed, turned and left.

••••••

Shangyang Pass, there is no tall and strong city wall like other levels, and there is no dangerous terrain advantage, simply put, there are two peaks here that are not too high and not too low, but there is a long avenue of two miles long and ten miles wide in the middle.

"Fang Lin, I don't really understand, why do we set up camp one hundred and fifty zhang away from the valley, and we also want to use the mouth of the valley as a round point and surround it in a fan shape?" Dongfang Rai asked.

"Hehe, the reason is very simple, this valley is wide and short, the peaks on both sides are too low and conspicuous, people can easily see the situation above without divine thoughts, so it is not conducive to ambushes, such terrain, if we go to block the mouth of the valley, it will become a live target for others, and if we are separated by such a distance, they must enter the valley, in that way, they will become our live target." Fang Lin said with a smile.

Qu Shan'er suddenly came to her senses and said, "I understand, the reason why you have laid out the Forbidden Sky Array inside is that you don't want those powerhouses above the Na He Realm to fly up and disrupt our attack rhythm, right?" ”

Fang Lin hadn't spoken yet, but Li Haoran said with a smile: "This is just one of them, more importantly, our strong people can fly, so that they will form a three-dimensional strike net!" ”

"In this case, wouldn't they be able to get by, do they still need Fang Lin to personally command this tactic?" Bai Lian said in surprise.

"Li Xianzong is not an ordinary person after all, just because we can't come up with a countermeasure doesn't mean that people can't think of it, and if I'm here, the Shang Kingdom won't be relieved to send a large army to attack, in fact, I still hope that Li Xianzong won't attack it, after all, we haven't reached the point where we want to offend the Yeyue Empire to death, we need time!" Fang Lin Road.

At this moment, on the border of the Yang State in Shangyang Pass, Li Xianzong's 400,000 troops were lined up here, Ren Yuan looked out of the valley and said, "Marshal, Ling Huazong is exactly the kind of troop arrangement method you are most worried about, what should we do?" ”

Li Xianzong sighed and said: "Hey, Fang Lin is indeed powerful, he has no intention of fighting with us at all, the reason why he put on such a formation is to clearly tell us that as long as we don't go over, they won't come, there is no damage on both sides, and everyone will settle it peacefully." ”

Ren Yuan asked a little unwillingly: "This valley is such a short distance, our cavalry can rush over it in a few breaths, as long as we rush over, are we still afraid that they will not succeed!" ”

"Stupid, this valley is not conducive to the development of the army, but the people have completely sealed the entire exit, as long as we rush, people will rain arrows, spells are all over the sky, as long as a few thousand corpses will block the movement of our army, and it is very likely that people will destroy our entire army with zero casualties!" Li Xianzong hated the way that iron does not become steel.

Ren Yuan was very unwilling, looked at the peaks on both sides again, and said with a light in his eyes: "Marshal, this mountain peak is not occupied, why don't we send a team of elites to bring some small catapults up, so that we can give the other party a powerful blow." ”

At this time, the pharaoh was beside him and said with a strange smile: "You are stupid and think that people are as stupid as you, such a mountain peak has no barrier, and the terrain has no terrain, and when you work hard to get everything up, people only need to send some strong people above the Na He realm to fly up, and a spell rain will fall, and you will lose it in vain." ”

Ren Yuan was said to have changed several colors in a row, and finally held back a sentence and said, "Then what should we do?" ”

"Camp in place, just confront the other party like this, our task is not to storm Ling Huazong, as long as we can drag Fang Lin's army here!" Li Xianzong waved his hand and shouted: "Set up camp on the spot!" ”

••••••

Fengming Pass is a checkpoint separating Shang Guo and Linghua Sect, in fact, this place used to be called Fengming Gorge, it is a very long and very small canyon, only accommodating four people to pass side by side, the mountains on both sides are extremely steep and towering, and the mountain is covered by dense vegetation, it can be said that this is a pure natural checkpoint, after Linghua Sect became independent, Shang Guo blocked this canyon, making it a checkpoint, and I don't know what arrangement Shang Guo has in it, in short, Ling Huazong will not easily go through the pass.

Outside Fengming Pass is a plain area, although its area is not as exaggerated as the Kuler grassland, but there is no problem at all to accommodate seven or eight hundred thousand troops to fight in it, at the end of the plain stands a huge city - Dingfeng City, it was originally just the size of a county town, because of the attention of Ling Hua Sect to expand it into a state capital, at present, there are 400,000 Ling Hua Zong cavalry stationed here.

In the tent of the military camp, a soldier reported loudly to Dongfang Tianxiao: "General Qiyu, there have already begun to be Shang troops coming out of Fengming Pass, but there are not many and only a few thousand. ”

"Don't pay attention to them, this is just the advance team of the Shang Kingdom, just out to find out the situation." Dongfang Tianxiao said lightly.

The soldier retreated as promised, and at this time, the two young men and women standing next to him stepped forward with some confusion and said, "General, the disciple doesn't understand, why don't we just eat these small shrimps, it shouldn't take much effort." The young man asked.

"Gao Xuan, you still don't know much about military affairs, do you know how many troops there are in the Shang Kingdom at present?" Dongfang Tianxiao asked rhetorically.

Gao Xuan didn't refute, but blinked and said, "According to the news sent back by our internal Ying, now the Shang Kingdom has five million regular troops in the capital of the Central Region alone, and the elite troops should be around 800,000. ”

"Well, think about it again, what is the ultimate goal of the sect master?" Dongfang Tianxiao continued to ask.

"Of course, it's to unify the entire Shang Kingdom," Li Qing next to him replied first.

"So, what is the total number of troops we have now?" Dongfang Tianxiao said.

"13,350,000, including 3 million elite troops!" Li Qing said proudly.

"Well, in addition to the eight million we need to guard the Quartet, the nearly two million who are attracted by the Yeyue Empire in the three major checkpoints, the one million permanent troops of the sect, and the one million who are ready to support the Huanhua Wetland at any time, how many troops do we have to mobilize?" Dongfang Tianxiao asked.

"One million three hundred and fifty thousand, but these troops are not all available to us." Gao Xuandao.

"Well, we can only call in one million, and with this military power, we want to destroy the Shang Kingdom, do you think it's possible?" Dongfang Tianxiao said.

Gao Xuan suddenly realized: "Therefore, we will use this million troops to try our best to weaken the army of the Shang Kingdom and reduce the difficulty of our future actions!" ”

"Yes, that's why the sect master will personally go to fight against Li Xianzong, these are all for Shang Guo to see, because only in this way can Shang Guo rest assured that he will send a large army to fight a decisive battle with us." Dongfang Tianxiao smiled.

"Then, the reason why we don't move those vanguard troops is to let all their follow-up troops come out of Fengming Pass, and then we will defeat them all in one fell swoop!" Gao Xuandao.

Dongfang Tianxiao nodded, didn't say anything more, turned his head and frowned and stared at the huge military map in thought.

••••••

Beitang's house, in Mrs. Beitang's small building, Li Mingyue was kneeling in front of Mrs. Beitang and crying, but Mrs. Beitang was furious, looking at Li Mingyue, her pretty face was almost deformed with anger, and she scolded angrily: "You little slut, I really didn't expect that you would take advantage of the time when I went home to mourn and cast a charm on my son, not only let him linger in your gentle country all the time, but also instigated him to kill the guards I sent to monitor you, you... ”

"Mother, I ••••••" Li Mingyue was about to speak but was rudely interrupted by Mrs. Beitang: "You shut up for me, there is no place for you to speak here, I have let you go again and again, but you are unrepentant, relying on the child who is pregnant with Yao'er to act recklessly, do you think I really dare not punish you?" ”

Li Mingyue opened her mouth, but was interrupted by Mrs. Beitang: "Don't look at me with your pitiful eyes, I'm not my two stupid sons, hmph, seeing your face makes me feel disgusting like eating a fly, come on, give me a palm!" ”

"Don't, don't be madam, Miss she is delicate, if she is tortured, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it, and if the child falls by then, the consequences will be great." Cui'er rushed in front of Mrs. Beitang at once, knelt down and ran her legs.

"Hmph, don't worry, these are all masters, and the control of strength has been subtle, and it won't hurt her much, Mrs. Ben just wants to teach her a lesson, lest she always take my words as a deaf ear." After Mrs. Beitang finished speaking, she looked at Cui'er with sharp eyes and said: "And you are not a good thing, but you don't dissuade the master from stealing people, hmph, come on, give me a fight!" ”

After speaking, as soon as he lifted his foot, Cui'er, who didn't know martial arts, flew out, and two people dressed as maids came up, grabbed their heads, and crackled slaps fell on the faces of the two, so that the two of them couldn't speak, and could only let out a scream.

After about the time of tea, Mrs. Beitang said lazily, "Okay." The two maids immediately stopped and returned to the back of Mrs. Beitang, at this time, Li Mingyue and the others no longer had the strength to shout loudly, so they could only sit on the ground and sobbed softly, and one of their faces was even more swollen and swollen, and the originally beautiful face seemed to have become a thing of the past.

Looking at Li Mingyue's current appearance, Mrs. Beitang seemed to be extremely satisfied, nodded and smiled: "Hehe, yes, just right, without this face, I see what you use to seduce men, and I am not afraid to tell you the truth, Mrs. Ben has set a family affair for Yao'er, just by virtue of your identity, you are not worthy of the position of Yao'er's wife, not to mention that you are still a slut, and now you are not even qualified to be a concubine, when you give birth to a child, Mrs. Ben will arrange for you to leave, if you really care about Yao'er, feel sorry for her, Just leave a note, saying that you are leaving by yourself, and persuade him to go to this family business. ”

After speaking, Mrs. Beitang turned around and waved her hand to signal the two to leave, Li Mingyue struggled to stand up, but she didn't have the strength, Cui'er's physical fitness was better, she slowly got up, and struggled to help Li Mingyue up, the master and servant just helped each other away, but the whimpering sound lingered.

Watching the two leave, Mrs. Beitang snorted heavily, and said to herself: "Hmph, the reason why I agreed to let this little slut enter the door was that I felt sorry for Yao'er, and secondly, I thought that Yao'er was just trying to be fresh and playing, and when she got tired of playing, she would naturally drive it out, but she didn't expect her seduction to be so good, after all these years, Yao'er not only didn't get tired of her, but also spoiled her even more, I'm afraid I think I have completely eaten Yao'er, So I came to harm my Li'er again, hmph, how can I, a mother, let you be happy, and make a good Beitang family a miasma. ”

Li Mingyue's master and servant returned to the Yueyue Tower, Cui'er immediately helped her sit down, ignoring the injuries on her body, and said with difficulty: "Miss, you sit down first, I will go to fetch water immediately, and I will quickly apply the medicine, our faces have been beaten very badly, if it is late, I am afraid that this face will be over!" ”

After Cui'er finished speaking, she turned around and was about to get busy, but Li Mingyue said lightly: "No need Cui'er, our face has been ruined, Mrs. Beitang is really ruthless, hehe, but invisibly she has done me a big favor, okay, you go and rest by yourself." ”

After speaking, he went straight upstairs, sat in front of his dresser, looked at the swollen and ugly face in the mirror, but Li Mingyue didn't care, the corners of his mouth were faintly upturned, and he said in a voice as light as a mosquito: "Brother, my sister is about to succeed, it's only a little bit of time, and in a few days, at most a month, I found that after this face can no longer be restored, it can be done, everything can be over, and the future will depend on you, if there is an afterlife, My sister will definitely come to your side, accompany you cleanly, and never be separated! ”

Li Mingyue smiled, smiled very sweetly, very sweetly, her eyes were also hazy, she looked straight at herself in the mirror, motionless, as if she was caught in some kind of memory, and unconsciously chanted in her mouth: "Despair in front of the mountain knows despair, but the bridge head remembers helplessly,

It is when I am hesitant and helpless, and I meet you again in my vague dream.

Thinking and talking like two lines of tears, half sad and half sweet,

A handful of red beans are scattered, and you will look at the king on the platform again! ”
