036, bamboo cutting plan (II)

Shaowu did not lift the siege of Zheng Muguo, and transferred the elite field army from the national capital to change the defense, but the number was less than half of the original army. It was enough for such an army to blockade and guard, but it was impossible to storm Zheng Muruguo, and the commander was no longer Yue Xuan, the general of Zhenguo of Genxiang Muro, but an unknown Lingbao.

It is said that Lingbao came from a humble background, and it was only because he climbed into the relationship with Master Peng Keng and became his eldest disciple that he was promoted and reused by Ba Jun. There are also well-informed people who are familiar with the affairs of the Xiangmuro Kingdom and the court said that because the merits of Lord Peng Keng's family have been so great that the young affairs have almost no reward for him, he will reuse his disciples to show special favor.

Zheng Muroguo finally breathed a sigh of relief, the atmosphere in the court was no longer so tense, but he did not relax his vigilance because of this, and he was still paying attention to the dynamics of the forces on Ba Yuan. Peng Keng's and Xuan Yuan's flying boats were used to migrate the people of the small world, and they should have no time to worry about anything else for a while, and Shrike and Changling also often went in and out of the capital of Ba Mu, and there seemed to be no abnormal movement.

In recent decades, the celebrant of the national memorial ceremony of the Zheng Muguo country is Mr. Yingzhu, who is even more like the chief priest than the monarch. In important rituals, the identity of each person is very important, and it is an occasion to communicate with God on behalf of all the peoples, and to add an invisible divine authority in the minds of the people.

Zheng Muguo has also restored the school palace in recent years, but the celebrant of the national memorial ceremony is still Mr. Yingzhu, and no one can replace his position. Ba Muroguo's scholar is Yu Chengli, who is Zheng Junhongzhu's assistant in the Baichuan City Society, he is also a disciple of Yingzhuling, and he served as Mr. Yingzhu's assistant at the national memorial ceremony.

In the past few years, on the second day of the national sacrifice ceremony, Yingzhu will fly directly from Zheng Muguo's current capital Guishu City back to the Jinshan Dojo. From Guishu City to Bujinshan Dojo, ordinary people have to trek hard or even can't reach it if they walk, even if Mr. Yingzhu's accompanying disciples rely on supernatural spells, they have to walk for most of the day.

But if the artifact flies into the sky, it's not too far in a straight line. Mr. Yingzhu went back in more than an hour. He has a noble status and vast magical powers, and of course he will not spend half a day walking like other disciples, so he happens to be alone in this more than an hour.

There may have been many times when Mr. Yingzhu left the sect dojo alone, but outsiders could not accurately grasp his whereabouts. So if you want to raid and take down Mr. Yingzhu, you can seize the opportunity. That's just over the hour of the year. And when Mr. Yingzhu had just left Guishu City, when he was about to arrive at the Bujinshan Dojo, it was not suitable for hands-on, and the really suitable time was no more than a meal.

......

Although the army of the Bamuro Kingdom besieged the remnants of the Zheng Muro, it did not completely block it or completely cut off its contact with the outside world. The army cut off only the east, north, and west roads, and bordered the wild mountains to the south.

The so-called Yingzhu Ridge, from the place name, is actually a remnant vein that extends into Bayuan in the mountains of the Southern Wilderness. The Yingzhuling Dojo is in the middle of a mountain range, and Guishu City is located at the end of this mountain range. There is a city outline arch guard on the east, south and west sides of it, which constitutes the remnants of today's Zheng Mur Kingdom.

A hundred years ago, Yingzhuling was still an obscure small sect, and it was called the Zhushan sect at that time, because at the foot of the mountain where the Taoist place was located, it was densely overgrown with all kinds of bamboo.

Mr. Yingzhu is the first Dacheng monk in the Zhushan sect and a person who revitalizes the sect. After he became the sect master, the Zhushan faction changed the name of the entire mountain range to Yingzhuling, and he, the sect master, was also called Mr. Yingzhu. As for Mr. Yingzhu's original name. It seems that no one remembers it anymore, and even those who know it don't call him that anymore.

The history of Yingzhuling is like this. The artifact of the Zhenshan whip was also obtained by Mr. Yingzhu by chance, and I don't know which ancient immortal family left it, along with the inheritance of the divine soul brand, and now it has fallen into the hands of Mr. Yingzhu.

Mr. Yingzhu is in his 90s this year, but he still looks middle-aged. In his mind, although Yingzhuling cannot be compared with Chiwang Hill, Wufu Hill, and Meng Yingqiu. But it is no longer under the big sects such as Bujin Mountain, Guxiong River, Beast Mountain, Lianzhi Peak, Dazu Mountain, etc., and sooner or later it will be more prosperous.

Today's Mr. Yingzhu can be said to have controlled the court of Zheng Muguo. After Zheng Muguo experienced the defeat of the national war, Yingzhuling's control of his state affairs became more thorough. Mr. Yingzhu is the only one in the country, and he is even more authoritative than the monarch.

Huwa and others also know more or less about the history of Yingzhuling. If you want to deal with a master like Mr. Yingzhu, of course, you are extra cautious. Hu Wa, Pan Gu, Yang Hanling, and Mr. Sanshui first detoured to the Southern Wilderness, and then sneaked along the mountain range of Yingzhuling, and when they approached the land of Zheng Muguo, they did not fly into the sky, blocking the only way from Guishu City to Yingzhuling Dojo.

Mr. Yingzhu flies along the undulating ridgeline, and there is a magnificent mountain in front of him, with lush vegetation below the mountainside, but the huge rock is bare near the peak, which is also the landscape feature of the Northern Wilderness. As long as you cross this mountain peak and pass through a col overgrown with flowers and plants, you will be in front of the Yingzhuling Dojo.

Huwa and the others lurked on the north side of the peak, and Yang Hanling suddenly said with a divine thought: "It's different from what we expected, it's two masters who are here!"

It was obviously not one person who flew into the sky, it was two masters walking side by side, and Mr. Sanshui was surprised: "The information we have is wrong, or Mr. Yingzhu has raised his vigilance, did he do it according to the original plan?"

The opportunity is fleeting, and a decision must be made immediately, Huwa squinted her eyes and said: "How can everything be as expected, two is two!"

......

Mr. Yingzhu and his junior brother Gu Caiqi were flying with their weapons, and Leng Buding was facing a cloud of light from the peak. Mr. Yingzhu snorted softly, and a bright yellow whip appeared in his hand, swinging it towards the light.

The whip appeared to be made of bamboo roots, and it was tough and multi-knotted, spreading out in the air like a swimming dragon, scattering the light. The moment the light dissipated, he found that what he had drawn was an egg! This egg immediately turned into a sword array, trapping him and Gu Cai in the air, and then countless sword lights struck.

Huwa has never delayed his cultivation, except for the time when he was trapped in the small world, the rest of the time, including riding in a car with Xuanyuan and sneaking into the wilderness with Mr. Sanshui and others, he was doing other things at the same time. After breaking through the transformation realm cultivation, he finally combined eighty-one stone eggs into one instrument, which can be called a miracle in the history of monk refining.

To deal with Mr. Yingzhu, Huwa did not use other artifacts, and sacrificed the magic gem head egg that he had personally created since the beginning of his cultivation and had been cultivated to this day. After the eighty-one stone eggs are combined into one, they can already be expanded into a powerful sword array, which has the potential of the Wufu Qiu Lock Mountain Sword Formation, which is the most convenient portable magic weapon for the tiger baby.

The intertwined sword light did not hurt the comer, and Mr. Yingzhu threw the Zhenshan whip out, and the bamboo whip unfolded and connected in the air. It also turned into a ten-zhang circle of aperture, which is also a magic circle that can be attacked and defended. Seeing this scene, Huwa was able to confirm that on the night of Dajun and Hanxiong's attack, someone did use the Zhenshan whip at that time.

The Zhenshan whip turned into a magic circle that could be attacked and defended, and someone threw the Zhenshan whip to trap the caravan, and at this moment Mr. Yingzhu protected the two of them with the Zhenshan whip. That every section of the bamboo is a formation pivot, and with the operation of the mana, it shoots out the Dao light, and it can't hold on to the tiger baby's stone egg sword array.

Gu Caiqi, who had not yet made a move, shouted: "Who is coming, why are you blocking me from going?"

The tiger baby did not fly in the sky and appeared on the cliff in front of her. He said with a cold face: "Mr. Yingzhu, don't you know me? When I saw the artifact you unfolded at this moment, I remembered a tragedy outside Shanchuan City back then, if you still remember that incident, you should know why I came...... May I ask this fellow Daoist, who are you?"

Accompanied by divine thoughts, Huwa told Yingzhu that he was here for revenge today. And asked Yingzhu -- Who else was involved in that incident at that time? I think that when the two countries were negotiating peace, Zheng Muguo had actually given Ba Muguo an explanation. arguing that it was ordered by Zheng Share, and since Zheng Quan is dead, there is no need to pursue it anymore, and the attempt is so vague.

Zheng Muroguo wants to be vague, but the tiger baby is not ambiguous, and he must be investigated and understood. Without Mr. Yingzhu's instruction and support. Zheng Gu, the monarch at that time, couldn't do that kind of thing, and the assassin wouldn't have a Zhenshan whip in his hands.

Yingzhu didn't speak, but only told the junior brother who was coming. Gu Caiqi asked rhetorically: "Didn't the two countries have already explained the matter back then, why is Lord Peng Keng's still entangled?...... with you. Which master is it?" At the same time, he introduced his identity with divine thoughts, he is the junior disciple of Mr. Yingzhu, and he is also the person who protects the veins of the original Zhushan faction.

Some of the circumstances are secretive and often unclear to outsiders. Thinking that Mr. Yingzhu changed the Zhushan faction to Yingzhuling, not everyone in the sect supported it, but Mr. Yingzhu suppressed the opposition with a strong force. His junior brother Gu Caiqi was also against this at the time, but in the end he had to follow the decision of the sect.

Later, Gu Caiqi became the guardian of the sect, and this identity is usually not public, and even ordinary disciples rarely know about it. The duty of the guardian is not to make a name for himself, but to continue the lineage as much as possible when the sect is severely damaged or in danger of being destroyed. Because Gu Caiqi did not support it back then, but it was difficult to change Yingzhu's decision, he took the initiative to assume this identity.

In fact, the duty of the vein protector is not only to continue the inheritance of the sect at a critical moment, but also to supervise the behavior of the high-level of the sect. Even if some sects do not explicitly designate a vein protector, there are hidden masters who shoulder this responsibility.

Today's Yingzhuling and Zheng Muguo can be said to have one fate, and such a major change has just happened in Bayuan, so Gu Caiqi will accompany Mr. Yingzhu to the national capital to participate in the national memorial ceremony, mainly to understand the current situation of all parties, but he did not show up publicly. When he returned with Mr. Yingzhu, he was blocked in the middle of the road by the tiger baby.

Although Gu Caiqi has been cultivating in the mountains all year round, he has also heard of the prestige of Lord Peng Keng, and of course he was surprised. And Huwa had never heard of Gu Caiqi at all, but she didn't expect such a master to emerge next to Mr. Yingzhu.

Mr. Fang Cai Yingzhu used the Zhenshan whip to defeat the sword formation, and the mana was agitated like a thunderbolt and exploded. It was said that such a big movement was enough to alarm the Yingzhuling Dojo, but in fact, it did not spread to the distance without the slightest sound. Because when the two sides were moving, a shining umbrella suddenly appeared in the air, and the umbrella opened but seemed to have no handle, completely enveloping this battlefield.

This is Mr. Sanshui's shot, according to the plan, Mr. Sanshui doesn't have to show up, his most important task is to cover up the movement of the fighting method, and the artifact umbrella in his hand is also just right. (To be continued......)
