Chapter 48: Night Party
At the foot of Thunder Mountain, there are rocky cliffs.
Dark clouds obscured the moon, no one was there in the middle of the night, there was silence on the stone cliff, only the mountain wind blew the treetops, waking up the wild birds that had just been sleepy.
The Leishan Mountains are majestic, shaped like an inverted iron cone, large at the top and small at the bottom, entrenched on one side, tall and mysterious shadows flickering in the night, sometimes there are fires flashing, I don't know which unlucky guy was killed by the mechanism again, or the witch gate is carrying out secret sacrifices. There are too many secrets of the Miaojiang Wumen hidden here, like a magnet to absorb the strange people in the rivers and lakes who are keen on evil arts and ambitions, at this moment, those who took advantage of the night to explore the path of the Thunder Mountain have already retreated, and the lucky ones died unexpectedly, and the lucky ones retreated, still planning the next action.
The figure of the man in black appeared on the stone cliff, holding a black wooden box in his hand, standing on the edge of the cliff, facing the mountain wind, standing quietly, vigilantly observing the surrounding environment.
"I have come to the foot of the Thunder Mountain, and I will appear quickly, and I will not come now, let alone when. The man in black suddenly pinched the swallow recipe of the witch gate in his hand, whispered a sentence in his mouth, and after saying that, he raised his hand into the air, and a black shadow flew out of his hand, up and down, like a light swallow, and flew to the top of the mountain.
It didn't take long for Heiyan to fly down from the top of the mountain, followed by a black crow, Heiyan came to the man in black and disappeared, and the crow landed on the shoulder of the man in black, stretching out his head and tail, very intimate.
"Where is your master? The man in black reached out and stroked the crow's feathers, and the crow enjoyed the caress without fear at all.
As soon as the words fell, a black shadow flashed down from the top of the mountain, stopped in front of the man in black, and a person flashed out of the black shadow, wrapped in black cloth, black clothes and black armor, and a Miao knife pinned to his waist.
As soon as Miao Yan saw the man in black, he knelt on the ground and said, "Miao Yan has seen my eldest brother, I haven't seen you for many years, how is my eldest brother?"
The man in black unveiled his mask, revealing the face of a real person, stepped forward to help Miao Yan, pulled his hands and said: "Brother Xian, you don't have to make such a big gift, you and I are close relatives, after the matter is completed, you and my brothers should work together to create a great cause!"
Zhang Zhenren is not a Han Chinese, he was born in Guizhou Buzheng Department under the jurisdiction of the Xuanwei Division, Bi Jiewei, Lao Yaguan, originally a Miao people, named Miao Wu, coincided with the Song and Yuan Dynasty wars, parents and relatives died in exile, only one younger brother Miao Cheng depended on each other.
At that time, the Song Dynasty declined, Mongolia was strong, years of war, the people were not able to make a living, the brothers who were less than ten years old fled all the way to the east, experienced countless life and death tests, each time they could make a ghost to save the day, but in Duyun Mansion encountered a riot of displaced people, the two brothers were scattered by the crowd, lost each other's news, the eldest brother Miao Wu was captured by the Yuan army, escorted to the northern Yuan capital to build a palace, the younger brother Miao Yan was coerced by a group of displaced people, and after several tosses and turns, he settled in Kaili.
Miao Wu found an opportunity to escape on the way to the north, wandering in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the Song Dynasty died and the Yuan Xing, the Mongols set the world, Miao Wu has been wandering in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for several years, and knows the living customs of the Han people well, and even learned to read and write, and changed his name to Zhang Simon. One day in Zhenjiang met Taoist priest Wang Yaozong, Wang Yaozong saw that his bones were quite different, both good and evil, like a ghost, fearing that he would fall into the evil way, and endanger the world in the future, so he accepted him as a disciple, and taught him with the right way and good law, who knew that he was narrow-minded and vicious, not only poisoned Nan Jiyun, expelled Zhou Wuyi, and seized the position of the lord of Lingyun Guanguan, but also wanted to annex the world's Daomen, dreaming of power in hand, blessing and misfortune by himself, enjoying all the glory, and power.
Before he took charge of Lingyunguan, he went south several times to find his long-lost brother, but there was no result, until once he strayed into a branch of the Miaojiang Wumen in Liping Mansion, and was captured after fighting with the Wumen disciples, he thought that he would die, so he said his identity and intention, and happened to rush to the general altar protector who was responsible for punishing the intruders to know Miao Li, so he brought him to Kaili, the two brothers recognized each other on the spot, hugged their heads and cried, but the two noticed their respective identities, and deliberately concealed the truth at the moment, only saying that they were similar in appearance to the outside world, misidentifying each other, Miao Yi found an opportunity to secretly let go of the eldest brother Miao Wu, and the two kept in touch in private, sending a letter with a black crow, teach each other Taoism and witchcraft, the five ghost soul method, Zhang Zhenren learned it from his younger brother Miao Yan.
Seeing the rise of all sects in the world, although Zhang Zhenren practiced a talisman day and night, and held the ancient book of the secret method of the Maoshan faction, "Seven Notes of the Cloud Pipe", he was always in the second place in the realm of the true monarch. Wandering on the third floor, unable to break through, Zhang Zhenren's desire is inextinguishable, and he knows that his cultivation is hopeless, so he has a poisonous plan, instigating his younger brother Miao Cheng to set off an incident in Miaojiang Wumen, first kill Miao Yao, and then take the position of the great wizard, just after the matter is completed, he will be able to take the Wumen into his pocket, slow down the big thing, and get the news that his younger brother has succeeded, Zhang Zhenren pretended to be a retreat, and couldn't wait to come to Lei Mountain.
Facing the eldest brother who he hadn't seen for many years, Miao Yan swore and said: "Big brother, don't worry, when the Miao Jiang Conference passes, the world's witch gates will be in the hands of the eldest brother!"
Zhang Zhenren was overjoyed when he heard this, glanced at the black wooden box beside him, secretly laughed at Nan Jiyun, and said to Miao Yan: "Can it be arranged on the mountain?"
Miao Yan looked confident and said: " It's all done according to the instructions of the eldest brother, half a month ago, I bought the other eleven protectors, they have long been dissatisfied with Miao Yao, thinking that Miao Yao practiced Confucian benevolence and righteousness in Wumen, which is a blasphemy of the sacredness of Wumen, and a big rebellion, we joined forces to take advantage of Miao Yao's unpreparedness, and killed him with the Tianyin array, and disguised as he was practicing and went crazy and died violently, and confused the past, and now Wumen will hold a Miao Jiang conference in a few days to elect a new great wizard, and the remaining twenty-six altars are not to be afraid。 ”
Zhang Zhenren was very pleased, and said with a smile: "The virtuous brother is doing things, the eldest brother is naturally relieved, but I heard that Miao Yao's apprentice Miao Worm treats his master like a father, has he ever noticed it?"
Miao Yan said lightly: "It's just a little Huangkou, eldest brother doesn't have to worry too much, he is now kept in the dark by me, and he is still on guard against the White Lotus Sect Sanyang Ghost King, even if he knows, he is helpless, how can he resist the Heavenly Yin Array of the Twelve Protectors of the Thunder Mountain?"
Zhang Zhenren suddenly realized and said: "Yes, the Heavenly Yin Array is the most evil array in the world, and I have no chance of winning, big brother, what's the matter, is the White Lotus Sect Sanyang Ghost King coming to Thunder Mountain?"
"Haha, it was the fake news I released that deliberately attracted the attention of the Wumen disciples, that Miao Yan has been fooled. Miao Yan became more and more proud.
