Chapter Seventy-One: Battle Initiation

On the fifth day of the sixth month of the Great Xuan Calendar, Zhang Yu drove the flying boat to the direction of Qianzhou alone after arranging all the matters in the school palace.

Because there was no news from Wan Ming Dao people now, he decided to go to Fan Lan, Qi Wu and the others first, and try to let them move to the boundary gap with their disciples, so that they could also start visiting and searching for other continents as soon as possible.

Sitting in the flying boat, he was also thinking about the cultivation in his heart.

At the current pace, by the end of this month, he would almost be able to get enough Divine Yuan from the Golden Ring to observe the second layer of the visualization map, and as for the seal he didn't recognize, he could try to learn and find it during this time.

After entering the second layer, he will be able to obtain two more supernatural powers, which will greatly improve his combat power.

Two days later, the flying boat arrived in Gaoping County, Wangzhou, because the Yantai School Palace was located here, so he decided to stop here for a while, and visit Liu Guang and Lu Lao by the way.

Because Wangzhou happens to be located in the heart of Qingyang Shangzhou, it can be said that the hub of Zhuzhou is located, so although Yantai Xuegong has nothing to do with the military government, it also has a boat rooftop, which saves him a lot of trouble, and he doesn't have to find another place to moor, and he lands directly in the Xuegong.

After getting off the boat, he was going to go to Liuguang's mansion first, but when he found the boundary, he was told that Liuguang and the two teachers had gone to study in other continents, so he could only leave a letter and turn around to visit Lu Lao.

Lu Lao has a great reputation in the school palace, but after a little inquiry, an enthusiastic young female student took him to a lakeside building, and looked for someone to go up and say hello.

After a while, Ye Silan came out from the inside, she saluted, and said happily: "Mr. Zhang, I didn't think you were here, please come in quickly." ”

Zhang Yu thanked the female student who brought him here, and followed Ye Silan to the building, passed the front hall, and entered the guest hall, where he saw Lu Lao sitting on a push chair, where he saluted him and said, "Mr. Zhang, the little old man is in poor health, please forgive me for not being careful." ”

Zhang Yu also saluted, his eyes fell on his legs and feet covered with soft blankets, and said, "Lu Lao, what's wrong?"

Lu Lao smiled bitterly and patted his legs in fear, and sighed: "I don't know what's going on, I suddenly couldn't walk a while ago, I asked a doctor to come and see, used a lot of medicine, and used moxibustion treatment, but there was no improvement." ”

Zhang Yu glanced at it a few times, and under the induction of his heartlight, he immediately recognized that there was a supernatural power hovering in Lu Lao's body, blocking the blood veins of his lower limbs, he thought slightly, and said, "What antiquities has Lu Lao been in contact with recently?"

Lu Lao smiled: "I have been dealing with antiquities all day long, how can I leave my hand one day, but if you want to say special, don't ......" he thought for a while, "Recently I found a stone slab with unknown words, but unfortunately this stone slab was sent to an old friend for tasting, if it is here, it is impossible for Mr. Zhang to take a look." ”

Ye Silan came up with an idea at this time: "Old Lu, you can let Mr. Zhang stay here for a few days, Old Li won't be able to watch for long, I think he should come back in a few days." ”

Lu Lao thought for a while, nodded, raised his head and said to Zhang Yu: "If Mr. Zhang doesn't dislike it, then why don't you stay here for a while?" I am also very interested in the ancient kingdom of Dongting that Mr. Zhang said last time. ”

Zhang Yudao: "Thank you Lu Lao, this time I have something to pass by here, and I won't stay long, so I can only find a chance next time." ”

Lu Lao said with some regret: "That's a pity." ”

Zhang Yu saw that he was inconvenient, so he didn't stay here longer, chatted a few words, and got up to say goodbye. Before leaving, he left a bottle of pills, and took a pen to write down a set of breathing methods, saying: "Lu Lao is actually not in a big problem, but he has been infected by evil qi, and this pill can be used to cooperate with breathing, fast for three or five days, slow for ten days, when you can stand up again." ”

Lu Lao is a person who can't be idle, these days have been suffocating in the push chair, it is really a torment, now when he heard that he can resume walking, he couldn't help but be a little excited, and immediately asked the servant behind him to solemnly put it away, and then said: "Silan, send Mr. Zhang for me." ”

Zhang Yu walked out of Lu's old residence, said goodbye to Ye Silan in front of the door, went all the way back to the Tianzhou berth, boarded the flying boat, and drove the boat to continue to the northeast.

After another day, the flying boat entered the territory of Qianzhou, which is the northernmost seaside place of Qingyang Shangzhou, and the whole state and county are on higher ground, guarding the sea gate in the northeast of Qingyang Shangzhou like a watchtower.

Dingzheng School Palace is located in Qianzhou Prefecture Zhitaichang County, after he stopped the flying boat on the platform, it took less than half a summer to find the door of this school palace.

The school palace occupies a vast area, along the central axis is arranged with a large hall of heavy eaves resting on the top of the mountain, all of them live on the side of the sub-step, the corridor wall on both sides is high, and there is a large tower in front of the door to live on the left and right, the pattern is grand. It is surrounded by green pine and cypress trees, with abundant branches and lush leaves.

There was an old man in front of the door who was sweeping the fallen leaves, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly let go of the things in his hand, bowed, and said, "This gentleman is polite, is the gentleman here to study, or is he here to visit?"

Zhang Yu raised his hand and saluted in return, "I'm here to visit a few fellow Daoists." ”

The old man asked a few words, and when he heard that he was looking for Fan Lan and Qi Wu, he suddenly said: "It turns out that it is Mr. Fan and Mr. Qi, they are here," he turned sideways and pointed back, "Both gentlemen are in the third hall." ”

Zhang Yu thanked the old man and came inside, obviously there were still not many people here, and it could be seen that except for some recruited servants, most of the places were still empty.

He walked all the way to the outside of the main hall, but he saw Fan Lan preaching inside, Qi Wu sitting on the other side, and there were more than sixty disciples sitting below, most of them were Xuanfu disciples from the Eastern Garden, and some people didn't know each other.

After such a long time, Fan Lan and Qi Wu had already entered the third chapter of the book, and they could be regarded as middle-level monks, but if the two of them were not limited by the lack of progress in the past, they would have already entered this realm.

Because he didn't alarm the two of them, he stood outside and waited.

About half a summer later, a chime bell rang, Fan Lan and Qi Wu dispersed the students, and then Shi Shiran walked out from the inside, but the two of them just stepped over the threshold of the hall, looked up, and saw Zhang Yuying standing there, and couldn't help but show surprise, "Senior Brother Zhang?"

They straightened their clothes, came up and bowed, and said, "Xuan Zheng is polite." ”

Zhang Yuhui gave a salute and said, "Senior Brother Fan, Senior Brother Qi, you don't have to be so polite in private. ”

Fan Lan was very familiar with him, smiled when he heard this, and said, "Then we won't be polite to our junior brother." ”

He invited Zhang Yu to come inside, first ordered someone to make tea, and then invited Zhang Yu to sit down, and said: "I and Senior Brother Qi heard that Senior Brother Qi heard that Senior Brother had obtained the edict of Xuanting, and appointed Xuanzheng, and we were also happy for Senior Brother, I should have come to congratulate, but I thought that Senior Brother should be busy with business, so I will disturb in the future." ”

Zhang Yu greeted the two of them for a while, and then said, "I just saw that many of the disciples are fresh faces, but are the two senior brothers' newly accepted disciples?"

Fan Lan said: "There are many descendants of the servants here, they also served for the school palace sixty years ago, so I allowed their juniors to listen to the sermon together, and there are some children of nearby fishermen, Qianzhou is a military state, and there is a lack of private schools, and these children have difficulty in going to school, so they are sent to us, and there are a few of them, but they are also quite spiritual." ”

Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "When I came here, I saw that many people outside seemed to be evacuating, is this an arrangement between the two governments?"

Fan Lan nodded and said: "Qianzhou is adjacent to the Northeast Sea, and now it is said that the north is about to go to war, because I am afraid that after the war, there may be gods and monsters coming from the sea, so the people in the state are evacuating inland one after another." ”

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, it is no wonder that this grand university palace in Qianzhou is so easy to ask for back, it seems that the people behind it also know that the war is coming, in case there is a war here, but there will be nothing left.

He said, "In that case, if I ask the two senior brothers and the disciples to live in another place, will the two senior brothers be willing?"

Fan Lan and Qi Wu glanced at each other, and Fan Lan arched his hand and said, "If Senior Brother Zhang has any orders, even if you take care of them, we will definitely do our best." ”

Qi Wu also nodded.

Zhang Yu talked about the matter of the boundary gap roughly, and said: "This boundary gap is related to the Xuanfu and the outside traffic, but now the situation in the continent is a little complicated, although there are a lot of people around me, but there is a lack of reliable people, so I want to ask the two senior brothers to be stationed in the boundary gap, and go to the other end to visit, to see if I can find another continent." I will also record these things according to the merits and list them in the Xuanfu merit book. ”

To be honest, now that the war is approaching, if the disciples of the Eastern Court stay here, they will inevitably be drawn into the war.

But in fact, there is no shortage of them here, but they can play a greater role than they can play by continuing their preaching in other places, or in another section of the boundary to find another continent.

Fan Lan's expression was straight, and he said: "It turns out that this is such a thing, since the junior brother can trust us, then we should go by ourselves." ”

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Okay, then this matter is settled." ”

While they were talking, the sky suddenly darkened, and it looked like it was about to rain, and the old man outside the door looked up and muttered: "In this place of Qianzhou, there are so many seafood that you can't eat enough. ”

Zhang Yu heard a rumbling sound in the distance at this time, his eyes moved, turned his head outward, and then flicked his sleeves, stood up, and walked out of the hall, Fan Lan and Qi Wu glanced at each other, also stood up, and walked out together.

Just then there was another rumbling sound.

Fan Lan frowned and said, "There is something wrong with this voice. ”

Qi Wu was a little uncertain and said, "Is it thunder?"

Zhang Yu looked in one direction and said, "No, it's the sound of the Xuanbing bombardment." ”

Just as his words fell, a roar was heard, Fan Lan and Qi Wu looked up, and saw that above the clouds overhead, one flying boat after another was flying to the north, one after another, and the rumbling sound in the distant sky was accompanied by real thunder one after another, and it became more and more dense.

Zhang Yu looked at the northern sky and the thick clouds with bursts of light, and said, "The war has begun. ”
