Chapter 68: Sit down

The hour was too tight, and a group of people had no time to go to the guest house to rest and wash, after the monk De finished recording the name, he took them straight to the meeting place, and it is estimated that in a short time, many fellow demons will also gather here.

Different from the meeting to help in the Zihan Temple of Luoxia Mountain, although the Taoist temple Guanyu seen is exquisitely carved and magnificent, the place of the meeting is not in the solemn Shangqing Palace, but through the Shangqing Palace, to an extremely large platform behind the mountain.

In the center of the platform stood a huge bronze incense burner, green smoke filled, and several Taoists were busy in front of the incense burner. On the east side of the platform, several layers of stairs were built, the table on the steps was complete, and the seat position was placed with embroidered brocade cushions, which was obviously the first position, and Chitang counted carefully, a total of eight cushions, that is to say, there were eight people sitting on the first throne at that time, and I don't know if there were any characters of the Qianjia in the road.

From the east side of the throne steps downward, to the west on both sides, there have been countless cushions, but these cushions are just ordinary linen stitched together, naturally not as respectful as the embroidered brocade cushion in the first place. Some of the cushions are still with flags behind them, but in front of the cushions are a pot of cups and two snacks, which looks very simple.

The monk was still apologizing one after another: "There are more than 1,000 fellow Taoists from all over the world, and it is really impossible to accommodate them in the Shangqing Palace, so this is arranged on the Heavenly Master Platform here, but the reception is inevitably ugly, please forgive me." ”

Of course, Chi Tang would not care, organizing a gathering of more than 1,000 people, even if it is as rich as a royal family, it is also a lot of trouble and exhaustion, not to mention such a pure door?

There are also a lot of apricot yellow Taoist robes behind the cushion to install flags, flags are also the same apricot yellow, think it is not the ordinary practice of helping the beggars, Chi Tang looked at it carefully, the flag was written, Chi Tang looked at this one written on it: Luling Iron Clothes Gate.

This flag is actually the banner of the various demon sects, Chi Tang immediately realized, and subconsciously looked around the stage, looking for the banner of the Qianjia. Soon, on the left side not far from the ladder of the honorable position, I saw the four characters of Jing Chu Qianmen, it seems that this is the seat of today's disciples of the Qianjia family, Chi Tang was about to turn around and greet Dong Yao Ji Yao to sit down and rest for a while, and suddenly thought that when he looked around just now, he felt that there were many flags and flags, and he was afraid that there were not more than a hundred, so didn't that mean that there were more than 100 sects participating in this grand event of subduing demons? But where did there be so many sects in the Dao of Subduing Demons? Chi Tang was curious, and raised his eyes to look at the past one by one.

The familiar slogans of the Endless Mountain Crane Feather Gate and the Purple Han Courtyard of Luoxia Mountain fell into the eyes one by one, and the names of Poyang Covered Water Village, Xiangdong Eagle Sorrowful Stream, and Luling Iron Yimen have also been heard, but what Linchuan Tianqing Society, Donghe Flying Sword Gate, etc. are unheard of, and when he saw a few big characters in Cui Wei's Mountain, Chi Tang's heart moved, and he remembered the short and stocky figure of Guo San, and said secretly: He really came.

In the right head to the back of a circle of flags densest, almost a seat and a flag, Chi Tang thought it was some smaller sects at the beginning, after reading it, I knew that the road, here is the road of the devil in the idle clouds and wild cranes, the ranger of the individual guest of the trumpet flag, Tong Sihai's name is in it, it seems that the Heavenly Master Sect is very meticulous in organizing this assembly, not missing any of the participants. Just thinking about it, I saw a Taoist running over and planting a banner with the words "Baige Gang Liu Ji".

Liu Jiha laughed, obviously he also noticed these flags, and after seeing that his announcement number was among them, Liu Ji copied his hands: "So fast? I can also be regarded as registering my name in the Demon Dao?"

The Virtuous Cultivator had already led everyone to the corresponding position to sit down, only the three of Jiang'an, Chen Song and Ye Jing, the Virtuous Cultivator took them to sit closest to the upper throne, but there were no flags behind him, perhaps he didn't know how to declare these demon spirits from Fly Mountain (he didn't know that Chen Song was not a demon), so he could only be placed as a guest of honor.

Chi Tang sat down under the banner of Jing Chu Qianmen, Dong Yao felt even more sleepy as soon as he sat down, and he was worried that it would be too rude for him to really sleep, so Xiao Pei held her and persuaded with a smile: "Take a nap for a while, it's okay, recuperate, it will start later, and I won't be too late to call you again." Hearing Xiaopei say this, Dong Yao relaxed her heart and muttered: "Well, I'll just rest for a while......" Before the words were finished, Zhen lowered his head and fell asleep.

Chi Tang looked at it with a smile, having Xiao Pei to accompany her more, but she didn't have a lot of embarrassment, otherwise, I'm afraid she would be holding her by herself, and everyone would be watching at that time, isn't it a joke?

A few Taoists brought breakfast and washbasins, which was a special care for them who came from afar and had not been washed all the way, Chi Tang wiped his face with the warm water in the basin, and thanked the Heavenly Master for taking care of the Taoists.

The breakfast is very simple, a few pieces of bread wrapped in shallot and dipping sauce, a bowl of hot wheat porridge, but it does not take off the Taoist frugal nature, only Wufeng found that there is no meat he likes, wagging his tail and lying down on the side.

Gradually, the people in the Demon Dao in various clothes walked into the venue under the guidance of the Heavenly Master, they greeted each other, laughed and talked to each other, or exchanged ears, and soon gathered more and more, and the voices on the field became louder and louder.

Three young men dressed in black bowed down in front of Kuang Xiong's throne, and then sat behind Kuang Xiong, their clothes were the same as the clothes of Zeng's Kunzhong seen in the Zihan Courtyard, and they must also be disciples of the Luling Iron Cloth Sect; a mighty man in green shirts sat under the banner of the Covered Water Village, Chi Tang did not know that this was Yuan Tiannan, the owner of the Covered Water Village, and then he recognized the girl next to the big man in the green shirt, wasn't it the female disciple of the Covered Water Village who fought side by side with him in the Zihan Courtyard? What is it called...... Aha, I remember, Yuan Fangfei.

Thinking of the past of the Zihan Courtyard fighting the ghost generals, Chi Tang couldn't help but think of the Dingtong Divine Monk, since the Zihan Courtyard was goodbye, there was no news, and even Jinping Gongzi couldn't find him, speaking of which, the marrow sucking demon power that he was injured by Mrs. Ru Dan was also the Dingtong dissipation, if we can see each other again, I will definitely thank you, but I don't know, whether he will come here today.

While pondering, I heard Ji Yao beside him cheering: "Senior brother, fourth senior brother!" Chi Tang was overjoyed, and looked in the direction of Ji Yao's shouting, only to see Qian Chong and Ji Rui, dressed in brown shirts and short shirts, walking side by side.

"Senior Brother ......" and Qianchong have been separated for a few months, he is still the same, the wide and warm smile on his face has not changed in the slightest, Chi Tang stood up and was about to give a salute, but Qianchong took a step forward, held Chi Tang's hands, and looked directly at Chi Tang's half-black and half-white face, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Chi, this time you have done a great thing, but it has also made you suffer......"

Chi Tang smiled: "It's just that there are more things on the face, it's nothing." ”

Qianchong had already learned about Chi Tang's experience of traveling to Chang'an Bashu from Xue Yang's mouth, and he was very happy that Chi Tang had made rapid progress in the past few months, but he really saw the image of Chi Tang now being disfigured by demons, but he couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart.

"When will you arrive?" asked Ji Rui with a smile.

"I just arrived, and not long after I sat down, Liu Er, the head of the Baige Gang, and the owner of Chen Zhai, they also came together, and they sat there. Chi Tang pointed to the direction of Chen Song on the shore.

Wushi couldn't wait to jump in front of Qianchong to spread joy, and now Dong Yao also woke up, and hurriedly came up with Ji Yao to meet him.

"The ninth junior sister and the little junior brother didn't come in vain this trip, I have heard that you can have a vicious battle with the demons in the Leopard Hidden Mountain, I think, they are all about to leave the division, haluha. Qian Chong and his junior brother and sister greeted each other warmly, and stroked Ji Yao's head lovingly, and after seeing Xiao Pei who came up to greet Xiao Pei with a smile, Qian Chong was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly smiled with a big smile: "I know you, Senior Brother Xue has talked about you, saying that you were a very knowledgeable soul, and Jinping Gongzi gave you a body to be reincarnated, hello, Miss Xiaopei." ”

I heard that Xue Yang introduced herself, Xiao Pei was a little sweet in her heart, but when she thought about Xue Yang and the dancing situation now, she couldn't help but feel sour: "That guy will say something good about me." I've seen Brother Qian, Brother Ji. Xiao Pei was blessed, she saw Qian Chong's bearing, and couldn't help but secretly praise herself, it's really true, the children of the Qian family are such good people, and if the Feng family sisters are invested in their door, it will be a good destination. Xiao Pei suddenly remembered, according to the time calculation, Feng Yingxiu and his party should have arrived at the Sima Mansion in Jiankang City, I don't know if the Juan'er girl has fulfilled her wish?

After laughing and talking a few words, Chi Tang suddenly asked: "Is there any news of Senior Brother Gan? Doesn't it mean that he went to the realm of the water demon alone?" He was still worried about Gan Fei's safety.

This question made Qian Chong and Ji Rui's smiles suffocated, and they couldn't help but show a solemn look on their faces.

"What's wrong with the dead fat man?" Wushi was stunned, his tone was a little nervous, and the same question Chi Tang and Dong Yao also wanted to ask, only Ji Yao blinked his eyes and said suspiciously: "Shouldn't Senior Brother Gan be with a big brother in white? There is also a very powerful old man." I can see it clearly, Senior Brother Gan has nothing to do, isn't that so?"

"Well, that's a long story...... Finally saved his life. After being silent for a long time, Ji Rui sighed and replied for Qianchong.

At least Gan Fei's life is worry-free, Chi Tang immediately relieved most of his heart when he heard this, but why did the senior brother want to speak like this? Just as he wanted to ask, he suddenly heard a person behind him shouting: "Senior Brother Chi." ”

Chi Tang turned around to look at the sound, and saw a person with a smile on his face, who was hurrying to meet him. Seeing him, Chi Tang immediately knew how the monk of Lu Dao Nade knew about his deeds in Chang'an, this person was dressed in white and had handsome eyebrows, but it was not Qi Wenyu of the Crane Feather Gate?

Qi Wenyu was stunned when he saw Chi Tang's face, and his steps were a little slow, and he seemed to be carefully identifying the situation.

Chi Tang spread his hands and smiled lightly: "Senior Brother Qi, this has been a long time. ”

After hearing this greeting, Qi Wenyu was sure that the person in front of him was Chi Tang, and hurriedly caught up and gave a warm hug, a disciple of the Crane Feather Sect who practiced qi would make this move, but it was extremely rare.

"I saw the color of Senior Brother's uniform and the sword behind him, so I recognized him, and sure enough, it was Senior Brother Chi. It's just that Senior Brother Chi has become like this on his face?" Qi Wenyu said with concern.

"It's okay to have a small injury. Why is Senior Brother Qi here? What about Brother Wei and Brother Jing Luo? By the way, what about Brother Seven?" Chi Tang didn't want to explain more about the origin of this ugly appearance now, so he changed the topic, of course, thinking of his days in Chang'an, thinking of Wei Feng Wang Meng and those Heluo heroes, as well as the lovely protector Luo Laoqi, Chi Tang couldn't help but be quite excited.

"Ha Luha, it's all good. Mr. Wang is now a big official, and he is worried about national affairs, Wei Daxia and Seventh Brother have become generals......" Qi Wenyu paused deliberately, "...... A general who specializes in dealing with demons and monsters. ”

A general who deals with demons and monsters? Could it be that Fu Jian, the new monarch of the Qin State, has an army to deal with demons? Chi Tang was surprised.

"I was about to elaborate on this matter at the Communist League meeting, so I came from Chang'an, and Master Xu also ordered me to publicize the martyrdom of my family teacher and the eradication of the tyrant in Chang'an City. ”

"Is Master Xu here too?" asked Qianchong suddenly.

Qi Wenyu just reacted at this time, he only cared about the contract with Chi Tang, but he neglected others, and hurriedly saluted everyone respectfully: "Qi Wenyu of Heyu Gate, I have seen all the Qianmen masters. ”

Chi Tang introduced them one by one, and Qi Wenyu gave salutes one by one again, such a humble and gentle disciple of the Crane Feather Sect made everyone feel good, and when she heard Qi Wenyu call herself a senior sister, Xiao Pei couldn't stop laughing.

After the ceremony was over, Qi Wenyu then asked and replied: "Uncle Xu has already arrived, but he just took the senior brothers of Lizimen to live alone in the back mountain, and only waited for the conference to appear naturally. ”

Xu Guanhong, the head of the Crane Feather Sect, Chi Tang knows his name, but he doesn't know how to compare it to Mr. Gushan, but fortunately, he will be able to see it soon.

"Hey, why didn't you see Senior Brother Xue?" Qi Wenyu found that there was no Xue Yang.

"Hey, you know him too?" Xiao Pei suddenly snapped.

Qi Wenyu shrank his head quite shyly, he was always a little nervous in front of this beautiful and delicate woman like the bright moon, but this did not prevent him from finishing his words: "How can I not know Senior Brother Xue? If it weren't for Senior Brother Chi and Senior Brother Xue to rescue me in Chang'an, I wouldn't have survived a long time ago." I also fought with Senior Brother Xue against the Thousand Miles of Fly Mountain. ”

"Senior Brother Xue stayed in this courtyard and never came. Qianchong smiled and added that he liked this young man.

"Bang... Boom... Bang..."The dense drum beat sounded, interrupting everyone's conversation, Qi Wenyu immediately turned his head: "Ah, the time has come, I have to go back to my position, senior brothers and sisters, junior brothers and sisters, Qi Wenyu will retire first." ”

"Be polite, Senior Brother Qi will go back first, and then talk about it when he finds leisure. Chi Tang said with a smile, watching Qi Wenyu's figure flicker, disappear in a blink of an eye, and soon reappeared in a group of crane feather sect disciples in white robes.

Chi Tang found that the seats on the Heavenly Master's platform were already full, and there were about more than ten disciples of the Heyu Gate, sitting in the frontmost position under the stairs, which was opposite to the position of Chen Song on the shore; while the woman of the Zihan Courtyard with a white dress covering her face was sitting on the side of the disciples of the Heyu Gate, there were about five or six people, and she couldn't see her face, so she didn't know that Qin Concubine or Du Yan and others who knew Lu Dao were not among them; the Tianqingzi Taoist in the pale cyan Taoist robe sat on the side of Chen Song's position on the shore with three or four disciples of the Five Elders such as Xuan Yaozi, and as far as the eye could see, only the crowds were crowded, but after the drum beat sounded, the original noise on the field suddenly stopped, and everyone sat peacefully, looking sideways at the eight upper heads that were still empty on the stairs.

"Let's start ......" Dong Yao tugged at Chi Tang's shirt and let him sit beside him, with an excited face, and the previous sleepiness was gone.

Just when Chi Tang just sat down, a burst of light and shadow on the stairs shone brightly, and two rows of Heavenly Master Sectarians suddenly appeared with the light and shadow, standing in unison according to the left and right directions, and a man with a wide robe and big sleeves, like a famous scholar, stood in front of the throne, raised his hand, and the dense drum beat stopped abruptly.

There was silence on the field, as if the drum was still buzzing in his ears, and the man waved at everyone sitting on the platform, and Qingyue's gentle voice seemed to be close to everyone: "The time has come, and the meeting of the Demon Alliance is about to begin!"
