Chapter 162: Eliminate the Demon and Defend the Dao, Save the Commons
At the foot of Cassia Mountain, Bai Qi jumped off the ground from the carriage and looked up at Cassia Mountain.
The mountain is not large or high, and it is relatively gentle, with lush trees, many of which are common fruit trees.
Bai Qi roughly estimated that the highest height of this Cassia Mountain was only more than two hundred meters high, which could only be regarded as a small mountain bag compared to the mountains of the Tianxuan Mountain Range.
"Master, this is Cassia Mountain. Li Ergou walked up to Bai Qiqi and said: "In previous years, the Yang Yan Miasma appeared on the top of this mountain, and when the sun was hot, the entire mountain top was shrouded in a purple mist; ”
Bai Qi nodded.
Glancing at his own shadow on the ground, it was about three quarters before noon.
At his speed, it would take him at least half an hour to climb to the top, and this was still if he was familiar with the way up the mountain.
In a situation like this, if you are not familiar with the road, it is obviously not advisable to try to pinch the time to go up the mountain.
So, Bai Qi decided to go up the mountain immediately!
After learning Bai Qi's thoughts, Chen Yi suddenly laughed.
"I said Xiaohui, although your analysis is reasonable, but you didn't ignore a point? Now this yang miasma has not yet appeared! You want to go up the mountain, can I pull you up and go up?"
Bai Qi's expression froze instantly, and when he saw Situ Ling and Li Ergou staring at him, he immediately coughed dryly, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face.
In the end, Chen Yi appeared on the top of the mountain with Bai Qi and Li Ergou.
Originally, Chen Yi didn't plan to bring Li Ergou up, although Li Ergou was an ordinary person, after all, Yang Yan Miasma was a poisonous miasma, and this matter was none of Li Ergou's business, and it was unreasonable for him to follow him to the top of the mountain.
But he didn't expect that no matter how Chen Yi and Bai Qi persuaded him, Li Ergou just didn't listen, and in the end, Chen Yi had to agree to him and take him to the top of the mountain.
Situ Ling, on the other hand, was waiting halfway up the mountain.
Because Situ Ling's cultivation is there, if she comes into close contact with Yang Yan Miasma, it will be not a small danger to her.
After Chen Yi explained Bai Qi's method of collecting Yang Yan Miasma and related precautions, he glanced at Bai Qi, and then grabbed Li Ergou and jumped off the mountain.
In any case, they will not let Li Ergou, who has nothing to do with this matter, take this risk.
Li Ergou, who was taken down the top of the mountain by Chen Yi, looked panicked after looking at the top of the mountain, and said in an anxious tone: "Elder Chen, what are you doing? You let the little master stay on it by himself, how can I go so carelessly!"
"This is also what your master meant, this matter has nothing to do with you, it is enough for you to bring us here, and it is our fault to let you stay at the top of the mountain. Chen Yi said seriously.
"But our shopkeeper said ......"
"Even the shopkeeper of Shangguan has to listen to your master's words, do you dare not listen to him?" Without waiting for Li Ergou to finish speaking, Chen Yi directly interrupted him.
Chen Yi really had no choice but to speak with Bai Qi's identity.
Li Ergou was helpless, so he had to stay honestly at the bottom of the mountain.
In this way, the time came to three o'clock in the afternoon, and Bai Qi on the top of the mountain had retreated to the edge of the mountain at this moment, quietly waiting for the yang miasma to appear.
His expression was solemn, as if he was facing a great enemy.
As time passed, there was no change on the top of the mountain, still blue sky and white clouds, green trees and red flowers.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he looked at the sky, and the sun that was originally above his head had shifted a considerable distance to the west.
Bai Qi knew that noon had passed.
And if the yang miasma is going to appear, it will definitely be after three o'clock in the afternoon, before the hour.
This also means that the miasma will not appear today.
Bai Qi sighed, looking depressed, and just as he was about to go down the mountain, Chen Yi suddenly appeared beside him.
He had been paying attention to the top of the mountain at the bottom of the mountain before, and naturally knew that the Yang Yan Miasma had not appeared.
"It's okay, we'll come back tomorrow. ”
Chen Yi patted Bai Qi on the shoulder, and after finishing speaking, he flew down the mountain with Bai Qi.
After the group returned to Shangguan's treasure house, Bai Qi ate something casually, said something to Chen Yi, and went back to his room, not knowing what to do.
As soon as Bai Qi left, Shangguan Tian came to Chen Yi and told Chen Yi that ten people had come from Tianji City this morning.
Among these ten people, there are men and women, old and young.
"These people are really bold!" Chen Yi said with a sneer.
Shangguan Tian said with a solemn expression: "Elder Chen, I know that you are very strong, but I have to remind you that there are two people that you must pay attention to. ”
"Oh?" Chen Yi was shocked and asked curiously, "Who is it?"
"Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian!"
Chen Yi raised his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face.
Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian, Chen Yi has heard of it, Xuanhuang Kingdom's famous 'fairy couple', and the strength of both of them is not below Chen Yi.
If the two join forces, even Chen Yi will have to avoid the edge for the time being!
"Also, the people from the Arbitration Hall, the Shura Palace, and the Red Gate, when you left in the morning, they appeared in Dengxing City on their hind feet, and it is not clear where they came from. Shangguan Tian added again.
The people of these three forces appeared in Dengxing City, what is the reason, I'm afraid even a three-year-old child knows.
Oh no!
Chen Yi's brows furrowed, he felt that he was in big trouble now.
I regretted in my heart that I didn't listen to Bai Yu's words and came out with Bai Qi.
"I've reported to the patriarch for safety, and I think the patriarch should send someone over. Shangguan Tian said.
In this case, Shangguan Tian didn't dare to be careless, in case these people made a move in Shangguan's treasure house, with his manpower here, even if Chen Yi was added, I am afraid that he would not be able to protect Bai Qi.
Regarding Shangguantian's approach, Chen Yi did not object.
If nothing else, these people are probably staring outside Shangguan's treasure house.
Thinking of this, Chen Yi even wanted to send Bai Qi back to the Earth Sword Gate immediately.
If Bai Qi really had an accident, he wouldn't know how to face Chen Ping'an and Bai Yu.
Just do it, Chen Yi told Shangguan Tian his thoughts, and Shangguan Tian also agreed after hearing about it, and the two hit it off, and immediately asked Situ Ling to inform Bai Qi.
After Bai Qi got the news, he only hesitated slightly, and then resolutely followed Situ Ling to the back hall.
The severity of the matter has even exceeded Bai Qi's expectations, in this case, if Bai Qi is stubborn and does not leave, it is not responsible, but stupid!
As the saying goes, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, that's the reason.
However, Bai Qi was still a step too late.
When he and Situ Ling came to the back hall of Shangguan's treasure house, they found that the back hall of Nuoda was already full of people, and it was surprisingly quiet.
Near the entrance of the back hall, there were the five masters of Shangguan's treasure house and Chen Yi, and opposite them, in front of the teleportation array, stood three middle-aged men with different colors of clothes.
You are staring at me on both sides, I am staring at you, invisible breaths collide together, and the entire back hall is filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.
At this time, the situation in the back hall gave Bai a kind of sabre-rattling and-for-tat.
It was as if a big battle would break out as soon as someone coughed lightly.
Seeing this scene, Bai Qi knew that something was wrong, and his face became ugly.
The costumes of the three people in front of the teleportation array happened to be known by Bai Qi!
Standing in the middle, the handsome long-haired man, dressed in white, with a blood-red cloak draped over his shoulders, and his hands behind his back, his gaze passed through Chen Yi and the others, and fell on Bai Qi, who had just arrived here.
A blood-red cloak, no one dared to wear a cloak of this color except for the Red Door.
Obviously, this man is from the Red Gate!
On the left and right sides of the long-haired man, there are the Arbitration Hall in green shirts and the Shura Hall in gray and white clothes and black cloaks.
Needless to say, Red Gate wanted to take Bai Qi away three years ago.
As for the people of the Arbitration Hall and the Shura Palace, they have all stood with the people of the Red Gate, and their purpose is also obvious.
"Elder Chen, I still say the same thing, this matter has nothing to do with your Earth Sword Sect, as long as you hand over that kid, I dare to assure you that you and your disciples can leave safely. ”
When he saw Bai Qi's figure appear at the door of the back hall, the long-haired man with the red door had a faint smile on his face.
"Red Demon, I still say the same thing, Xiaohui is my nephew, and I want me to hand him over to you, unless you step over my corpse!" Chen Yi stared at the long-haired man at the red door and said in a deep voice.
Although the words were said lightly, Chen Yi's heart was not easy at all at the moment.
This man called the Red Demon is the hall master of the bloodthirsty hall under the Red Gate, and his strength is among the many elder hall masters of the Red Gate, he is called the second, and no one dares to call it the first.
It is no exaggeration to say that the strength of the Red Demon is the strongest in the Red Gate, except for the main master Hong Qiwen and the deputy master Red Sky!
As for Wang E of the Arbitration Hall and Lu Swallow Heaven of the Shura Palace, they are all first-class masters in the world, and any person who goes out is an existence that can open a sect.
"Elder Chen, you and I are both righteous people, but now we are harboring people with demonic energy, what is your intention? I think if it spreads here, I'm afraid it will have a big blow to the prestige of your Earth Sword Sect, right?" After the red demon finished speaking, he glanced at the two people beside him.
Wang E of the Arbitration Hall and Lu Tuntian of the Shura Hall nodded in agreement, and then followed suit.
"Yes, Elder Chen, if you Earth Sword Sect does this, how can other sects on the continent dare to continue to believe in your Earth Sword Sect?"
"Elder Chen, in my opinion, it is better to hand over this kid to our Arbitration Palace, the prestige of our Arbitration Hall in the mainland must be clear to you, you have never wronged good people, and resolved a lot of grievances for others. ”
Chen Yi stared at all this coldly, looking at the boastful appearance of these three people, he felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart.
Correct path?
Chen Yi scoffed at these two words, which was nothing more than a difference in position.
Of all the sects and sects on the continent, which one is clean? It's not that Chen Yi is blackmailing, including the Earth Sword Sect.
Who can guarantee that the people of these sects do not have blood on their hands?
Not to mention anything else, the people Chen Yi killed himself were at least in the double digits.
"You dare to do it in the Shangguan Treasure House, haven't you thought about the consequences?" Shangguan Tian suddenly stood up and said with a frown.
Although his strength was weak, and his body was trembling slightly under the terrifying aura of the three red demons, he also had to stand up.
Anyway, Bai Qi is Shangguan Lanyue's younger brother, the younger master of the Shangguan patriarch, and Shangguan Lanyue has repeatedly ordered that all Shangguan treasures must protect Bai Qi at all costs when Bai Qi encounters danger.
"What are you? Do you really think that with Nine Girls and Long Hanyan supporting you, you can walk sideways?"
Before the red demon could speak, Lu Swallowing Heaven of the Shura Hall beside him couldn't help but scold.
Shangguan Tian's brows furrowed, and he didn't dare to continue speaking.
The red demon glanced at Lu Swallowing Heaven at this time, then looked at Shangguan Tian, and said with a smile: "Shangguan Shopkeeper, don't be like Lu Swallowing, this person has always spoken like this, no light or heavy." ”
As soon as the red demon finished speaking, Lu Swallow glared at the former with dissatisfaction, and said sarcastically: "Red demon, you are not a good person, what are you pretending? Who doesn't know that your red demon's heart is black and even your blood is black?"
The Red Demon smiled and shook his head.
What is surprising is that Lu Tuntian said this about the red demon, and the red demon not only did not get angry, but shook his head with a smile, and said helplessly: "Shangguan shopkeeper, look, I said it." ”
If you let someone who doesn't know the situation guess, I'm afraid they will think that what Lu Swallowtian just said is not a red demon.
As if he wanted Shangguan Tian to understand his intentions, the red demon explained: "Shangguan shopkeeper, I hope you can understand, we are not here to make trouble, we just want to deal with this matter peacefully, I think you also know how dangerous the demonic qi in the body of this little brother Bai Qi is, and you don't want the people on the mainland to live in dire straits, right?"
Regarding the words of the red demon, Shangguan Tian did not pay attention to it, nor did he express his opinion, what is the situation now, fools know that saying so much is just a waste of words.
Chen Yi, who was beside Shangguan Tian, suddenly took a step forward, and a thick look of disdain appeared in the eyes of the red demon.
"Don't pretend to be kind there, everyone knows the demonic energy, the ugly thing is called demonic energy, and the good thing is rare treasures, and you are the same, the good thing is to eliminate the demons and protect the way, save the common people, and if it doesn't sound good, it is coercion and temptation, and it is forcible and robbed!"
"If you don't let it, if you want to do it, I will accompany you to the end, but before you start, I advise you to think about the sect that was destroyed a few days ago!"
After Chen Yi finished speaking, he stared straight at the red demon, waiting for the latter's answer.
As far as the people present at the moment are concerned, the five masters of Shangguan's treasure house should be able to hold Wang E and Lu Tongtian for a while.
And Chen Yi himself can also hold back the red demon for a moment.
Even this amount of time is enough for Bai Qi and Situ Ling to leave this place.
However, ideas are always good!
As several figures appeared outside the door of the back hall again, Chen Yi's beautiful idea was ruthlessly torn apart in an instant.
Although the others Chen Yi didn't know, he was more familiar with one of the men and a woman, it was Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian mentioned by Shangguan Tian before!
Looking at Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian who had just appeared, the smile on the red demon's face became even brighter.
"Elder Chen, is there anything else you want to say about the current situation?"
