Chapter 59: One Year

Wonderland.

The fairy demon war has begun.

It is said that it is a fairy and demon war, but the coalition forces are in front of the formation, but it is the immortals of the Tongtian Sect main faction.

They had already fought with the Immortal Emperor army, and because they were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers, they formed a defensive array. The immortals are divided into multiple groups, and their distribution is like the Big Dipper in the middle of the night.

Each group held up a small magic circle, and the turtle-like immortal light shield closely guarded the immortals. Although the light of the magic circle is extremely strong, compared to the magic circle of the Immortal Emperor's army and the waves of immortal attacks issued from the magic circle, that is, the seaside reef level that withstands the continuous lapping of the waves.

The huge waves were monstrous, lapping on the reef, rolling up thousands of piles of snow, and the immortal aura and light tide continued to submerge the magic circle, and no matter how you looked at it, it could easily swallow it. However, every time a tidal wave recedes briefly, the reef reveals its true face again and again, declaring its tenacious existence.

This is not because the small circles are so powerful, but because the small circles are connected by pillars of light, forming a complete large defensive circle. It is precisely because the Great Law Circle has not been damaged by the essence that the various departments can be tenaciously supported.

The person who presided over this overall defense circle was the Tongtian Sect Master, that is, the Mud Dust Daoist himself.

Because of his presence, this circle will not be broken in the short term.

But their numerical disadvantage is too big after all, that is, about thirty percent of the Immortal Emperor's army, so no matter how strong the magic circle is, if it continues to suffer from the onslaught of the Immortal Emperor's army, there will always be a moment of destruction.

Just looking at the posture of the immortal aura and the magic circle in each small magic circle, we know that if the magic circle is broken, then these immortals will be seriously injured in an instant and lose most of their combat effectiveness.

Behind the Tongtian Sect Master's giant defensive array, there was an army of demon clans.

Their numbers are not comparable to the Tongtian Sect Master's faction, even if the Immortal Emperor's army is in front of them, it is the difference between the window and the mansion gate.

However, every monk in the Immortal Emperor's army is an immortal realm, and the main force in the demon clan army is a Qi cultivation cultivator and a real human realm, and the overall strength is completely incomparable to the Immortal Emperor's army.

But looking at the calm expressions of the Monkey King, the Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King and others, you know that they don't feel that they will definitely lose, on the contrary, many demon warriors have a scorching color in their eyes, strong as fire, almost pious.

This is because they are also forming a formation, and they are casting the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array.

The flags floated in the shining array, each in each direction, fused with the breath of the demons, pulling the demonic power into it from everywhere, and finally filled the entire array through the mysterious method.

While the Tongtian Sect Master and the others were relying on the defensive magic array to resist the onslaught of the Immortal Emperor's army, the power of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array was continuing to strengthen. The demonic power that had converged into the central dome of the Great Array from the banner was condensing a huge black magic orb.

The magic ball was as black as ink, unfathomable, and constantly flashed with a snake-like light similar to lightning, as if there were millions of spirit snakes spitting letters, which made people shudder to watch. The orb had swelled to the point where it was large enough, but the sense of darkness and depth continued to deepen.

Li Ye looked at the magic ball, and his perception was very obvious, even if the magic ball was so dark that he couldn't see anything, his intuition told him that it was still continuing to turn black, and its strength was also increasing.

Like, it's an embryo that gives birth to a terrifying existence.

This is the big array of the demon clan, Li Ye can't exert any strength, although the immortal power and the demon power belong to the same spiritual energy category, they are still very different, and now they can only watch the demon clan exert their strength.

This feeling of staying out of the matter can't be said to be good or bad, and Li Ye doesn't feel uncomfortable. He didn't plan to come to the Immortal Realm in the first place, and his appearance here was purely calculated.

"Brother Ye, how do I feel, someone in that magic ball is about to climb out?" The county lord sitting cross-legged next to Li Ye had two pigtails on his head, a large bag of pastries in his arms, a mouth full of sugar residues, and a handkerchief to wipe his mouth from time to time.

This is her private collection, and it is also her hobby, all kinds of food in the storage bag, all poured out, I am afraid that it can fill several large vats. Li Ye didn't like to eat these snacks, so she was next to Li Ye's shoulder, eating crispy, not without the intention of seducing Li Ye, but unfortunately it was useless.

"It's true that something is going to crawl out, but it's probably not a person, it's a demon. Li Ye answered Wu You's question.

Because the problems in the west and northwest of the mortal world have been solved, he is now quite relaxed. His own cultivation has reached the Golden Immortal Realm, and he has the strength to fight against the Da Luo Golden Immortal, and he is no longer afraid of general risks. Even if the demon army is defeated, he and the county lord can calmly get out of the battlefield without any pressure at all.

Because of this, the county lord also had a good mood, so he began to eat pastries. After being in the fairy realm for so long, this is the first time she has eaten a lot. When it is not so easy, the county lord will choose to learn embroidery, because it is to learn from the fox demon proprietress, so it needs to invest a lot of spirit, which can be distracted.

Eating snacks is different, it requires complete relaxation, so that you can taste the deliciousness of the pastry, which can be regarded as living up to the food. No matter what others think, that's what she thinks anyway.

"It feels like they're going to have to fight for a long time. Brother Ye, why don't you take the jar wine out and drink it, I eat delicious food alone, but you don't have anything to do, it feels so awkward. The county lord said that the act of eating alone made her feel very guilty, and she felt uncomfortable.

Li Ye was as good as a stream, took out a jar of wine from the storage bag, and drank it without a sip.

In fact, it's not interesting to drink dry, there is no appetizer in front of him, Li Ye is particularly nostalgic for the fried peanuts on the earth, but unfortunately, the Tang Dynasty did not. After a few sips, Li Ye felt that there was something missing in his mouth.

In fact, drinking is a wonderful thing, if there is no appetizer, you need something else to match, such as telling stories, memories, thoughts, sad feelings, feelings of loneliness, etc.

Li Ye didn't have these now, so he could only put his hand into the county lord's hand, take the pastries she hadn't eaten from her small pink palm, and stuff them into his mouth one after another.

In this way, the wine has more flavor, mainly to drink more. Sometimes Li Ye also feels that wine is really not a lonely thing, and he can't drink a lot of wine without company, even if he is accompanied by loneliness.

The county lord's big eyes were gone, because they were bent into good-looking Yue Ya'er, but she didn't let Li Ye see her expression, and she smiled proudly and silently. One hand took out a large handful of pastries from the paper bag, spread out the palm of his hand, and picked it up with the other hand to eat.

Of course, this is not for her own convenience, but so that Li Ye can better share her beloved things from the palm of her hand.

Although the county lord didn't drink, some of the baby's fat cheeks began to redden, and I don't know if it was an illusion, anyway, she felt that the pastries were more delicious and she could eat more.

I don't know what Brother Monkey thinks, when he reshaped the body of the county lord, he completely copied her previous appearance, and he didn't even let go of details such as baby fat. When Li Ye slandered Brother Monkey, he attracted the anger of the other party, this guy said that he was painting a scoop based on a gourd, and what the gourd was originally like, the scoop must be what it was.

When Li Ye drank a few jars of wine, the county lord ate with a round belly, and almost patted his belly and wailed, the battle situation in front of him finally changed.

In the huge black ball, an arm finally stretched out, and soon it was the second one, and just as the demon head was about to crawl out, the Tongtian Sect Master's defensive array, whose light was gradually dimming, finally shattered after a boom.

One after another, the small magic circles burst open, and the sky-high aura exploded into mushroom clouds, and the immortals inside vomited blood and flew upside down, their bodies scattered like dandelions, and their bodies slid through a long trajectory before they fell to the ground one after another.

The mud and dust Dao man himself also spurted out a mouthful of blood with a blue face.

The Immortal Emperor, who was standing behind the immortal array, looked at the immortal who continued to fly out upside down, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Li Changgeng, who was standing next to him, sneered disdainfully and said: "The mud and dust Taoist is clearly a rebel Taoist! This guy is self-aware and has given himself such a Taoist name." It's a pity that the rebels are doomed. ”

This sentence can be called the voice of the Immortal Emperor, and after Li Changgeng said it, the other party repeatedly expressed his approval.

After the mud and dust Dao man flew back to Zhou Tian's Star Dou Great Array, he looked at the Immortal Emperor from afar, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and snorted coldly: "See how long you can pretend!"

After they were defeated, the Immortal Emperor's army was overwhelming, and just as they were about to launch a new round of immortal bombardment, all the demon clan monks opened their eyes together, and suddenly looked at the immortals with electric eyes, as if there was thunder in their eyes.

The existence that emerged in the huge black ball, as if feeling a strong call, let out an earth-shattering roar, and suddenly with the strength of both arms, the whole thing jumped out of the darkness.

Seeing the existence of revealing his full body, Li Ye was immediately stunned, and almost laughed.

What kind of demon is this, it's clearly a long-armed toy. A pair of arms are huge, as if they can hold the sky with one hand and the ground with the other, and the head is big enough as if they can turn into the sun, but the body is too small, only the length of the arms is short.

One can imagine what kind of monster this is.

"It is said that the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array is extremely mysterious, and it can summon the power equivalent to a blow from the Saint Realm, but unfortunately, these demons are not cultivated enough. I want to see if such a deformed monster can really help me!"

As he spoke, the Immortal Emperor waved his hand suddenly, and the offensive magic array formed by the army under his command suddenly shook, sending out a ball of aura light larger than the monster's body.

Even if it was just a monster summoned, the Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King, the Macaque King and others, their faces were full of sacredness at this moment, and they suddenly opened their mouths and roared, and the sound shook the universe: "Pangu opens the sky!"

The deformed monster was shocked when it heard the sound, its black eyes were scarlet like flames in an instant, and its palms were closed to the sky, as if it had grabbed a giant axe, and when the ball of light was approaching, it let out a long roar like a baby and a night snack, and swept out violently!

Li Ye was far enough away from the county lord and the big array, but at this time, he was still affected by the surging waves of spiritual energy, fortunately, the power of spiritual energy was not very strong, but the scene in front of him still made the wine jar in Li Ye's hand fall to the ground with a bang.

There were no demons, no immortals, only the bursting aura of light like a sea of clouds, tumbling endlessly, obscuring everything.

When the tide of spiritual energy finally dissipated, Li Ye's eyes widened.

The Immortal Emperor's army was nearly half lost, and the audience was full of immortals lying on the ground, and they didn't know whether they were dead or alive. The light of the great array is gone, not only is the Immortal Emperor's army gone, but the Demon Clan monks are also gone.

But none of this is important, the important thing is that the immortals who can still act, under the order of the Immortal Emperor, the tide generally kills the demon monks!

And the demon clan monk was not to be outdone, even if there was a big gap in cultivation, he still raised the magic weapon in his hand, and fiercely collided with the army of the Immortal Emperor.

Li Ye stood up suddenly, sat down quickly, and said to the county lord next to him who was doing the same thing with him: "The scuffle has started, it looks like I don't know how long it will last." ”

The county lord nodded seriously, "It may take a long time...... At least, one day?"

Li Ye bowed his head solemnly: "With so many monks, if you want to divide the winner and loser, it should not be less than this time." ”

The county lord said: "One day in the sky, one year in the mortal world, Brother Ye, you can do a lot of things again." ”

Li Ye touched her little head, looked at the battlefield, and said with half emotion and half expectation: "I hope the demon clan can hold on for a while." ”

......

Li Ye didn't expect to come to Shazhou again so soon.

When I left Yangguan and returned to Pipa Mountain, I had the intention of supporting King Qi, but I didn't expect that the battle would end as soon as I arrived at the other side, and it was a decisive victory.

The next thing is very simple, there is no time to rectify the power of the Liberation Gate, swear allegiance to the Tang Dynasty, and do not hesitate to revise the Shimen classics for this reason, and say that the Tang Dynasty is the birthplace of the new Buddha.

What old Buddha dies and a new Buddha is born, and the latter replaces the former to save the world and purify all sentient beings, which will lead the Buddha to the light...... Li Ye didn't believe a word in this kind of words, but he couldn't bear to believe it among the monks of Shimen, so he didn't bother to take it seriously when he said to Wukong that he was the reincarnation of the new Buddha.

Li Ye went to Shazhou again, in fact, for one purpose, to officially announce the Tang Dynasty's jurisdiction over the entire Hexi and Northwest, and to discuss border defense and other matters with the Guiyi Army.

Suo Xun and Zhang Huaiding, the two of the cancer in the Guiyi Army, as well as their henchmen, were escorted to Li Ye's trial in the Jiedu Embassy Mansion of the Guiyi Army in Shazhou. The process was very simple, the momentum was huge, and the order to behead was even signed by Emperor Li Yan himself.

Treason, Zhu Jiu clan is the proper meaning of the question, but Suo Xun and Zhang Huaiding have special identities, if they are even nine clans, I am afraid that the Zhang family will be gone, this is very sorry for Zhang Yichao, and there is no need.

Therefore, what Li Ye and Li Yan mean is to get rid of their wives and children and all their henchmen.

On the day of the execution, there was a huge crowd of people around the execution site, blocking the streets and alleys, not to mention that the attics near and far were also crowded with people, and Li Ye suspected that all the people from Shazhou were present.

Suo Xun was already desperate, and he didn't know where his spirit had gone, and his numb appearance of waiting for punishment made Li Ye suspect that he was actually dead. Because even when his wife, Suo Zhang, pounced on her, bit her, and grabbed him, cried bitterly that he had harmed his son and harmed the whole family, and cursed him for never being able to live beyond his life, he did not move.

Zhang Huaiding was much worse, the moment before his head was cut off, he cried bitterly and shouted that he was wronged, saying that he was bewitched by Suo Xun, and at most he was guilty of stupidity. It's a pity that he woke up too late, and he didn't understand, he was stupid enough to make a big mistake, and he would also be punished.

The knife rose and fell, Suo Xun, Zhang Huaiding and others became corpses, and this attracted the onlookers to applaud, which can be said to be destined to be left for 10,000 years.

After staying in Shazhou for a while, Li Ye took King Qi and other great monks and set off to return to Chang'an.

Naturally, Li Xian did not go back, saying that he was accustomed to life at the border and that the Uighurs had to be on guard. Nangong No. 1, Li Ye still went to see him, but the scene he saw was unsightly, and Xiao Niqingqing's attitude made him retreat, and he knew that the other party did not plan to return to Chang'an.

Back in Chang'an, Li Ye still didn't get any leisure, a lot of military affairs were waiting for him to deal with, and he was buried in the first case every day, and he didn't even have time for King Genqi to drink a little wine and enjoy a full moon.

As expected by King Qi when he was in Hexi, Wang Jian of Shuzhong did not attack Chang'an. It's not that he is willing to be a salted fish, but that the southwestern border of Shuzhong itself is unstable. In order to deal with the Nanzhao army that marched north, Wang Jian himself was very busy.

When he went out to the Central Plains before, Wang Jian lost too many soldiers and injured Shuzhong, and this time in the face of the Nanzhao army taking advantage of the situation to invade the border, the war was quite difficult, mainly because the army was not enough.

If he hadn't fought bloodily and been fighting at the forefront all the time, the Nanzhao army might have reached Chengdu.

After receiving the information from Shuzhong from the Tsing Yi Yamen, Li Ye was also embarrassed.

"At present, the country is peaceful, and the feudal towns are subservient, but Wang Jian's name is Tang Chen, which is really a traitor. However, this time Nanzhao gathered hundreds of thousands of troops to commit crimes, and he led his monks and soldiers to fight for many days, but he still held the territory, whether it was out of loyalty to the court or not, and finally fulfilled his Tang duty. ”

When Li Yan went to Zhongshu Province to visit the class, Li Ye told him about the situation in Shuzhong and had such feelings.

Li Yan hated the matter of the case, and it was a kind of torture to ask him to deal with the twists and turns, but as long as he didn't face the paperwork, he was still interested in discussing the big and small matters in the country with Li Ye.

"Wang Jian is a clown who jumps off the beam, now Guanzhong is peaceful, there is no rebellion in the feudal towns, and there are no thieves and ministers attacking each other, the various states and counties are properly governed, even if there are disasters, there is no mob to make trouble, this is the image of my Tang Dynasty!"

Li Yan spat and said: "Brother Ye recovered Hexi in the tenth month, rescued the righteous army from fire and water, and extended the true control of the Tang Dynasty to Yangguan again, this is a great achievement, and it will definitely be praised by future generations! Wang Jian, who is stealing from Shuzhong, is so difficult to fight the savages of Nanzhao, why didn't he come to Chang'an and kneel down in front of our brothers?"

These words made Li Ye cry and laugh.

Although the words are a little rough, the truth is such a truth.

Li Ye said: "In the next year, the important affairs of the imperial court are nothing more than two points. First, to pacify Shuzhong, and second, on the basis of continuing to implement the new policy and allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment, the power of the feudal towns was restored and the authority of the central government was established. ”

Li Yan nodded his head, expressing his firm approval of Li Ye's proposition, and then with a wave of his hand, he pushed everything on Li Ye, and he happily returned to the palace and continued to enjoy peace.

After the New Year, it is the Shangyuan Festival, which is a big day to celebrate all over the world, and Chang'an City, which has been lonely for many years, finally ushered in a prosperous festival year.
