Leaving the tea shop, Liu Menglong and Yang Ruyan went straight to the mountain in front of Qingcheng.

Qingcheng Mountain belongs to the eastern branch of the southern vein of the Qionglai Mountains, and strictly speaking, they are still in the Qionglai Mountains. Yang Ruyan knew that Liu Menglong would not know the story of Qingcheng, so he introduced it while walking.

This Qingcheng Mountain is a very famous place, known as the Taoist "Cave Heaven Fifth Treasure Immortal Nine Chambers of Heaven", and has always been as famous as Qiyun Mountain, Wudang Mountain, and Longhu Mountain. Speaking of Chinese Taoism, there are two major sources. During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling created a league of prestige in Qingcheng Mountain, taking "Lao Tzu's Five Thousand Texts" and "Taiping Cave Extreme Scripture" as the main classics, using Fu Shui to cure people's diseases, and using chapter tables and ghosts and gods as oaths. It also divided the world into prescriptions, and each ruled with sacrificial wine to lead the people, and stipulated that Tiancang and Sanhui should be paid on time. Fu Tiancang, that is, the believer pays five buckets of letter rice to the Heavenly Master and sacrificial wine on October 1, and the three meetings, that is, the believer comes to Qingcheng to meet the Heavenly Master three times a year on the 7th day of the first month, the 7th day of the seventh month, and the 5th day of October.

Almost at the same time, Jiangdong native Yu Ji wrote 170 volumes of "Taiping Qingling Book", which was transmitted to Hebei Julu Zhangjiao a hundred years later. In more than ten years, the number of followers has grown to hundreds of thousands, covering eight prefectures, including Qing, Xu, You, Hebei, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan, forming a folk religious group with wide influence, many believers, and great momentum. At that time, the Eastern Han Dynasty court was politically corrupt, natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, and the burden on the people was extremely heavy. The Taiping Taoists were organized according to the region with the method of military establishment, divided into 36 parties, each set up a "Qu Shuai" commander, selected Jiazi year and Jiazi day to rebel at the same time, put forward the slogan of "the sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the year is in Jiazi, the world is auspicious", killed officials in various places, burned official mansions, and attacked the grange of powerful landlords, the momentum was very huge, so that the government and the opposition were shaken, and Zhang Jiao led the people to wear yellow turbans as a sign when they revolted, so the history is called "Yellow Turban Rebellion".

After the failure of the Yellow Turban Uprising, the Taiping Dao was banned by the rulers, and a considerable number of the Taiping Dao followers were reorganized by Cao Cao into his elite Qingzhou soldiers, which significantly enhanced Cao Cao's military strength and political status.

The fate of the Zhengyi League from Qingcheng is very different, after Zhang Daoling was feathered, his son Zhang Heng and his grandson Zhang Lu successively inherited his way. By the time of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Lu had established a **** regime in Hanzhong for more than 20 years, vigorously spreading and developing the prestige of the Zhengyi League, calling himself "Shijun", the backbone was called "sacrificial wine" and "the head of the great sacrificial wine", and the management of the ministry was called "ghost pawn". In terms of morality, he demanded that his followers be honest and not listen to deception, that those who had minor mistakes could hide their mistakes, and that they could make up for their mistakes as long as they built a hundred steps on the road; and that those who broke the law could be forgiven three times, and only after the three original years did they not repent before they were punished. In addition, rice and meat are placed in the transportation fortress for free food and lodging for refugees and travelers. Later, Cao Cao captured Hanzhong, worshiped Zhang Lu as the general of Zhennan, and was named the Marquis of Langzhong. Since then, the Zhengyi League has gained legal status and has been able to spread publicly, becoming the orthodoxy of Taoism in later generations.

Li Zizhan, the head of the Qingcheng faction, has a very high reputation, one because of his martial arts and morality, and the other because Qingcheng is the ancestral court of Taoism in the world. Taoism in the world is respected by Qingcheng.

Liu Menglong and Yang Ruyan walked for a long time, all the way up the mountain, but they didn't see half of the Qingcheng disciples, which was strange. Normally, at least the mountain gate should be manned, but today there is none.

"There's something weird here, be careful. Yang Ruyan reminded Liu Menglong, who had no experience in the rivers and lakes, to speed up the mountain.

The two of them flew to the front of Zhangren Peak, and heard the sound of fighting in the open space in front of them, so they hurried over.

On the large open land on the east side of Zhangren Peak, a group of immortals were fighting. Both the attackers and the defenders were wearing Taoist robes, and it was obvious that another group of Taoist priests were looking for trouble with the Qingcheng Taoist priests, and they were fighting in the dark, and the people in the field were already dead and wounded, and the Qingcheng faction was about to lose.

Liu Menglong Qingcheng sent the grace of rescue on the shore of Minshui, and when he saw that there was a strong enemy coming up the mountain, he was not lazy, and immediately pounced on it. As soon as Liu Menglong passed, Yang Ruyan naturally followed him like a shadow, tiptoeing closely behind.

There was still some distance from the arena, and before I could see my opponent clearly, I heard a sharp whistle first.

"Quick! It's Ecstasy. Yang Ruyan urged Liu Menglong, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart: I heard that there are only a few people in the Ecstasy Sect in Bashu, and the team of people Ma Yun has Dengzhou, how can they have the strength to attack Qingcheng Mountain?

This time it was Yang Ruyan who made a mistake, and it was not the Ecstasy Sect Master who blew the jade whistle, but the heart of Zhongtianguan. His whistle was not a command of the black-clad killer, but a mobilization of a formation.

He ate a loss from Li Ziyang and Li Zizhan brothers by the Minjiang River, and was unwilling, so he contacted Xuantianguan and Baiyunguan to copy Li Zizhan's nest. These three views, none of which are Qingcheng's opponents, and their strength should not be underestimated. After finding out, Li Zizhan and Li Ziyang went to Sanqing Mountain, and Qingcheng had no masters, so the three of them moved together to occupy the Qingcheng Shangqing Palace.

When Liu Menglong pounced, Xiang Tianxin, Xuantian Guan Bi Ye, and Baiyunguan Bancang of Zhongtianguan were killing Cai Nan. Liu Menglong didn't know Bancang and Bi Ye, he only knew Xiang Tianxin, and shouted angrily: "Xiang Guanzhu, three famous people beat a junior, it's shameless." ”

Although Cai Nan fought bravely, the three of them had no choice but to have higher martial arts than him, and it was difficult to support him with a sword, which was already full of dangers. As soon as Liu Menglong shouted, the three of them were slightly stunned, and Liu Menglong was allowed to go to a gap, and the seven absolute knives slashed into the wind. I didn't see how he was powerful, but with a sweep of the knife, the three of them felt a strong wind hit their bodies. Xiang Tianxin had already avoided the opportunity, but Bi Ye and Bancang felt a tightness on their shoulders, and then they were stabbed on the shoulders by Liu Menglong.

"This kid's knife technique has been practiced!" Xiang Tianxin was so shocked that his old face was frosty, and the shock in his heart was all revealed on his face. It has only been a long time since he left Minjiang, and this kid is so strong, it can be seen that the Seven Absolute Swords are really peerless and good swordsmanship.

He picked up the whistle and blew it lightly, and the three Taoist priests in the field changed their positions one after another, forming a strange formation.

After Li Zizhan left, the affairs of the sect were temporarily presided over by Cai Nan, and several elders with high skills in the sect were in retreat in the back mountain. I thought that today was a catastrophe, but I didn't expect a lucky star from the sky, and Liu Menglong happened to appear at this time. Liu Menglong only cast a knife, and resolved his crisis, he felt the same as Xiang Tianxin, and secretly shouted in his heart: "This kid's knife technique has been practiced!" The difference is that Xiang Tianxin was surprised, but he was surprised.

Yang Ruyan held the sword in his hand, looking at the formation, but it was tumbling and rolling, like an oolong skein, and couldn't help but praise: "Xiang Guan, good formation!"

Xiang Tianxin sneered and said, "This is the Great Array of Guardian Views - the Heavenly Array in the Dragon Dance. ”

"I see. Yang Ruyan said: "The dragon head, dragon tail and four claws can be seen." To break this formation, it is the next strategy to cut off the head and tail of the dragon, and you must first break the four claws. ”

Xiang Tianxin's expression changed, and the key to breaking the formation, as Yang Ruyan said, showed that she understood this formation. But he still forced his composure and said: "Don't talk big, no one has broken this formation so far." ”

Yang Ruyan chuckled lightly, and sneered at each other: "That's because people who know the Xuanbing Sword Technique and the Seven Absolute Sword Techniques have never encountered this formation. Xuan Ice Freezes the Dragon's Head, and the Seven Absolute Swords cut off the dragon's claws, do you think this formation can be broken to the Viewer?"

The appearance of Liu Menglong and Yang Ruyan has greatly changed the strength of the two sides, and it has also made Xiang Tianxin uncertain. At this time, if he gives up halfway, there will undoubtedly be no chance to retaliate against the Qingcheng faction, but if he has to work hard, Yang Ruyan's formation breaking method is obviously a great threat to his Dragon Dance Heavenly Array. Liu Menglong injured the two masters of Xuantian Temple and Baiyun Temple as soon as he took out the knife just now, with this Seven Absolute Sword, even if he won today, he didn't know how many people he would lose, so he had to stop the formation. The dream of occupying the Shangqing Palace and humiliating the Qingcheng faction was shattered by Liu Menglong today.

Qingcheng sent Liu Menglong to relieve the siege, and hurried to treat the injured fellow disciples. Cai Nan saw that it was the old man on the bank of Minshui who came to relieve the siege, and he hugged Liu Menglong with a face full of embarrassment, and said with a bit of sadness: "Thank you Shaoxia for your help today, and save my Qingcheng from the time of danger. ”

Liu Menglong stared at Xiang Tianxin and the people without a moment's notice, lest they make any changes. However, Yang Ruyan smiled at Cai Nan, which was regarded as a reply.

Cai Nan said to Cai Bai beside him: "The master has repeatedly warned you that people should not be greedy. At the beginning, if we had participated in snatching the Seven Absolute Sword Techniques like those greedy people, even if we succeeded, would we be able to guarantee that we would be able to escape the disaster of exterminating the sect today? It was only because we had good intentions that God had sent Liu Shaoxia to relieve my danger. ”

Cai Bai nodded when he heard this, even if he was lucky enough to grab the Seven Absolute Sword Technique, he might not be able to practice it in a short period of time, and at that time, he would not only face two or three Taoist temples, but the unrighteous Qingcheng must face the world's martial arts, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Liu Zhangtang, what a ruthless knife technique. "Gritting his teeth at Tianxin.

Liu Menglong looked at the golden knife with blood in his hand, and he trembled a little, after all, this was the first time he had used a knife to hurt someone. And in the days when he practiced swordsmanship hard, he only wanted to beat others, and he never thought that he would hurt and kill people.

Thinking of how weak Liu Menglong was when he left Langzhong? As soon as this person has long skills, his temperament is different, and in the face of Xiang Tianxin's rebuke, he suddenly became articulate: "What I thought about in my heart was only to solve the danger of Qingcheng, and I didn't want to kill people." Besides, those two guys wearing Taoist robes to attack the ancestral court of Taoism in the world, can they still be regarded as people?"

"Hmph!" Xiang Tianxin snorted coldly, unable to answer. Liu Menglong scolded Bi Ye and Bancang under the pretext, but in fact, he even scolded Xiang Tianxin, and the Taoist priest came to attack the Taoist ancestral court, which is indeed not like a human thing.

Xiang Tianxin grinded his teeth with Liu Menglong while thinking about how to end today. Judging the situation, since the battle cannot be won, it has no choice but to slip away. In the end, he waved his hand, and a cadre of people supported the wounded, and walked away cleanly in a blink of an eye.
