Chapter 249: Round-up
After three days and two nights of non-stop shipment, all the things of the Island Heavenly Machine Academy were carried onto the sea boat, and except for some of the creators who stayed behind to guard this place with Master Han Dajiang, the rest of the people were ready to evacuate with the Wu Academy.
Before boarding the sea boat, a lightning bolt happened to strike in the sky, and it flickered around, and through the glass roof above, he seemed to see something, and he couldn't help but stop.
But as the lightning passed, the sky soon turned into a dark and dreary sky again, except for a dull rumbling sound in my ears.
"But what's the problem?"
The guard next to him saw that his expression was different, and couldn't help but ask him.
Wu Zhiyuan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm dazzled, let's go." He leaned on his crutches and walked down the colorful boarding path under his feet to the top of the boat.
Soon, nearly 6,000 people in the Tianji Courtyard entered the fifteen sea boats one after another, and after the hatch was closed, cutting off everyone's sight, and then the spiritual light on the sea boat flickered, and they sailed into the deep sea.
At the same time, another flash of lightning flashed between the sea and the sky, and the figures of Cao Fangding and Shi Yue were revealed in the sky.
The lightning above their heads kept flashing, but even if it struck him, it would be blocked by the light of the heart, and it would not hurt them for half a point.
In the faint thunder light, you can see that there are more monks standing around.
After getting Zhang Yu's order, the two of them hurried to the sea, and arrived half a day ago, when they found that the following people were preparing to evacuate.
The two discussed it for a while, but they didn't choose to start immediately, because this island was the place where the Tianji Academy had been operating for many years, and it was impossible to say that there were no weapons to defend it.
They are not here to destroy this place, but to capture all these people back, if they attack, these people will have some trouble resisting, rather than this, it is better to let these people go to the sea, and wait until they are far away from the island, it is simpler.
Cao Fangding saw that these sea boats located under the sea were gradually moving away, so he said: "Shi Daoyou, it seems that not everyone in the machine courtyard has withdrawn that day, so I bothered Daoyou to bring people to detain and pick up these people who were left behind, and I will leave these people to watch first." After the Taoist friends deal with this place, they will catch up, and we will shoot together. ”
Shi Yue said: "That's it." ”
Four days later.
After a few days of sailing, the fleet that came out of the Heavenly Machine Academy was already far away from the original island, but it was still some distance away from the Yuntai Metropolitan Protectorate.
Yuntai Metropolitan Protectorate is one of the earliest Imperial Protectorates to return after the recession of the turbidity tide, originally built on a huge sea and land, and in recent years, there has been a lot of communication with the region, and after the Taibo Monster was repulsed, the original passage on the sea has also become safe, even if they have no one to answer, they can also turn from here to Yujing.
It's just that the space in the sea boat is limited, and the sea navigation is boring and boring, which is not a very pleasant thing. At this point, they felt safe, and the boat began to rise to the surface in a hurry.
Cao Fangding watched the ridge of the boat below like a big fish in the sea gradually reveal the water, knowing that the time had come, he took care of the monk beside him and said: "Let's start, try to capture it alive, but if you encounter resistance, you can kill it!"
When the monks received the order, they said yes in unison, and then they turned into a ray of light, like a meteor, and rushed towards the more than ten big boats floating on the sea!
Gwangju Cheonkiwon Temple, near the barricade-like building, has a very empty square, and it is called the "Ten Thousand Birds Habitat" because it is full of all kinds of birds and creatures flying here every day.
These creatures are full of feathers, and there are many kinds of birds, and the flocks of birds are even more pleasing to the eye, and more importantly, these creatures do not need to be excreted like ordinary birds, so there is no headache and embarrassing bird droppings.
These birds are very empathetic and close to people, so they often attract many people from the continent to visit here, and it has been one of the highlights of Gwangju for decades.
At this moment, on the square, there are simple wooden houses, which are the places where Tianji Yuan sells all kinds of cats, dogs, pikas and other creatures and pets.
These creatures are close to people, loyal to people, have a certain intelligence, and will not be contaminated with any parasites, except that they cannot reproduce and have almost no shortcomings, so they are also very popular, especially by children and women, and attract a large number of people here every day.
In a pet shed on the edge of the square, a little girl was anxious to pick up a dog she fancied after her parents had finished trading.
The little dog leaned up affectionately, and the little girl also happened to come up, and the tips of the noses of the two sides involuntarily touched together, and then the little girl let out a giggle of happy laughter, and the little dog also barked with Wangwang.
There was a painter next to him who looked at this innocent and beautiful scene, and felt that his soul had been washed, and he couldn't help but pick up the pen, wanting to keep this moment on the canvas forever.
Just as his thoughts were springing up, the large fowl that had been staying in the square suddenly fluttered and flew and scattered in all directions, which could not help but attract his attention.
It was also unknown in the square, and after a while, someone pointed with his hand and shouted, "Look there." ”
Everyone looked up, but saw a Taoist standing above in the air, and looked in the direction of the Tianji General Courtyard for a moment.
After a while, the crowd heard a rumbling sound coming from the clouds, and then a stream of light shot from the far sky, and stopped over the square, and one after another monks came out of it.
This scene continued for two moments, and more than a thousand monks appeared in the sky above the Heavenly Machine Headquarters.
These Taoists were suspended in the middle of the sky one by one, their Taoist robes fluttering in the sky, and there were flashes of light around each person, and the clouds and mist were wafting, and for a while, this habitat of ten thousand birds seemed to have turned into a fairyland.
Most of the people in the field saw the cultivator for the first time, especially some young people who had not been on the battlefield and had only heard of the monk from the mouth of the elders.
Wan Ming Dao and Lin Dao people are standing at the top at this moment, this time the "True and Xuan" Dao have sent a large number of cultivators here, just to ensure that the Tianji Academy General Courtyard is captured.
However, these more than 1,000 people are just a blockade on the ground, there are still huge buildings in the underground of the Tianji General Academy, and there are also underground galloping tunnels leading to the Tianji Academy in various states and counties, and now these places have been blocked by the monks and disciples sent out by the two families.
Lin Daoren looked down and said, "Wanming Daoyou, why don't you evacuate these people in advance?"
Wan Mingdao said: "It's not suitable, if we evacuate in advance, some important people in the Tianji Academy will probably follow after getting the news, and these people must also have the manpower arranged by the Tianji Academy, and each of them will need to be screened again."
Lin Daoyou rest assured, many of us are here, and this generation is a throwing soldier, and we can also protect the safety of these people. ”
Lin Daoren couldn't help but nod.
Wan Ming Daoist glanced at the distant sky at this time and said, "Xuanzheng is here." ”
Lin Daoren turned his head to look, a cyan rainbow light surrounded by clouds and mist came from the distant sky, and only then appeared in sight, and in a flash, it was in front of him, and then the light dispersed, and he saw Zhang Yu holding the cicada sword, the sleeves of his robe fluttering, and he stepped out from the bright jade mist and clouds.
He was busy with the Wan Ming Dao people who came forward to salute, and the more than 1,000 cultivators also saluted him together.
After Zhang Yu nodded in return, he said, "Wanming Daoyou, what's the situation?"
Wan Ming Daoist replied: "After I arrived, there has been no movement in the Tianji Courtyard. ”
Zhang Yu glanced at the tens of thousands of people in the sky who were looking up in the square, and said, "Evacuate the people of these states first, so as not to be affected later, remember, don't cause panic." ”
Wan Mingdao said: "Yes, Xuanzheng, I will arrange it." ”
In the underground main hall of the Tianji Courtyard, Fang Yuzhong was pruning flower branches in the flower garden.
A guard walked in, clasped his fists and said: "The main courtyard, thousands of monks have come from outside, surrounding our Tianji Academy, we have made arrangements according to the previous instructions of the general courtyard, can the general courtyard explain otherwise?"
Fang Yuzhong paused slightly in his hand and said, "I know, I don't have anything else to explain, you go down first." ”
The guard said yes and bowed respectfully.
After cutting the branches, he put down his scissors, took off his gloves, and sat down on the rattan chair under the trellis.
He looked at the flowers in the garden, took a sip of the brewed tea, crossed his hands on his belly, and leaned there.
After a while, a jade wall in front of him flickered, and then a vague figure appeared, and a slightly old voice came from inside, "What's the matter?"
Fang Yu said: "The people of the Xuanfu have arrived near the main courtyard, and our plan should have failed. ”
The figure said in a deep voice, "Really, what are you going to do?"
Fang Yuzhong tapped his finger on the handrail and said, "Someone should always stand up and take the blame, but I have already made all the arrangements." ”
The figure was silent for a moment, then said, "What do you want me to do?"
Fang Yuzhong said solemnly: "Take my two granddaughters away, remember to take care of them." ”
The figure seemed a little surprised, and said, "What do you do, does it make sense?"
Fang Yuzhong said seriously: "Yes." ”
The figure looked at him a few times, and seemed to be a little unrecognizable, but he finally said, "I will, is this the only thing you ask?"
Fang Yuzhong shook his head and said, "There is nothing else, whether it succeeds or fails, I have completed my mission." ”
The figure said in a deep voice, "Goodbye then." The jade light curtain flickered for a while, and then disappeared.
Fang Yuzhong took another sip of tea, and after sitting for a long time, he said, "Someone is coming." ”
A creator with a metal strip on his face walked in, bowed, and said, "What do you command?"
Fang Yu said: "Take out the letter on my desk and give it to those monks." ”
The creator said yes, bowed, and withdrew from the garden, except for the rest of the oracle to sit there, looking at the garden full of bloom, like a flower that would never wither.
