Chapter 694: Lady Hongmian!
It has been ten days since the demon god was born, and the mortals of Middle-earth seem to have not yet felt a catastrophe hanging over their heads, after all, the mountains and rivers of southern Xinjiang are poor, and it will take several days for the news to reach Middle-earth, and then it will take a while for it to reach the ears of mortals.
Therefore, at a time when the Middle-earth Cultivator Sect was worried about the common people in the world, ordinary mortals were still in the midst of that rainstorm disaster for several days.
On the night when the demon god was born, heavy rain fell in Middle-earth, and along with the third day of the blood moon in southern Xinjiang, it rained for three days and three nights in a row for thousands of miles in the southwest of Middle-earth.
Homes are shattered, countless people have been displaced, the flood has not yet receded, the entire southwest of the Shenzhou continent has been plagued, starvation is everywhere, and from time to time you can see a swollen corpse emerging from the flood.
Under this rare natural disaster in a century, those ordinary people are too busy to take care of themselves. How could they care about what happened thousands of miles away, in the 100,000 mountains of southern Xinjiang?
But, after all, there are signs of catastrophe.
First of all, Bashu, Xiangxi and other places near the 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang, under the persuasion of the Xiuzhen sect, the people living in these two places, especially those living near Mount Emei and Qixing Mountain, were required to go north as much as possible, at least 300 miles north of Mount Emei.
When the people who were asked to evacuate to the north asked what was going on, the Shushan faction and the corpse chasers in Xiangxi were vague, saying that it was not safe here recently, and it was better to move north as much as possible.
In this way, in the past few days, some people have gradually realized that something is wrong, as if a catastrophe more terrible than the flood of a hundred years is about to unfold in this southwestern frontier.
Many people remembered the appearance of the catastrophe ten years ago, and the Shushan faction was not so cautious and dignified at that time, could it be that the impending disaster was even more dangerous than the catastrophe ten years ago?
On the ninth day, a group of women and children who fled from southern Xinjiang, under the guidance of the disciples of the Shushan faction, crossed the pass and entered the middle earth, and the world knew that a peerless demon appeared in the 100,000 mountains of southern Xinjiang, and was leading these countless southern Xinjiang beast demons to kill in Middle Earth.
Since the beginning of this day, rumors have spread and people are panicking, but there are still some people in the southwest who intuitively believe that there are these immortal-like characters of the Shushan faction protecting this water and soil, what are the few demons to fear? Is it even more terrifying than the million-skull army led by Futian ten years ago?
Yun Xiaoxiao returned to Shushan for three days, and he was not idle for a moment, although his wife Li Tielan passed away, but his title of Marquis of Shu was still on his body.
In the past ten years, he reduced the fiefdom rent and taxes, in the southwest of the Bashu area, his popularity is high, close to the world's first-class figures, learned that many people near Mount Emei thought that Shushan could resolve the catastrophe in front of them and was unwilling to evacuate to the north, so he issued more than a dozen orders in the capacity of Shu Zhonghou, and ordered his own fiefdom in various state capitals and counties to be ready to transfer the people at any time.
In fact, Yun Xiaoye also understands in his heart that whether to transfer or not is secondary, if Shushan wins, this catastrophe can be resolved, and the living beings in the world will be safe.
Once Shushan is defeated, no matter where the people are moved, it will be useless.
Shushan, known as the South Heavenly Gate in Middle Earth, once the South Heavenly Gate is broken by demon beasts, to the north is a horse Pingchuan, and there is no force to stop the beasts from going north.
Middle Earth is different from southern Xinjiang, which is poor and bad, and the people of the five ethnic groups together are only one million. But in Middle Earth, there are three or four hundred thousand people in Tianshui City at the foot of Shu Mountain alone, let alone the entire world, where can hundreds of millions of human beings flee?
In the early morning of this day, Yun Xiaoxie opened his eyes, lay on the bed and looked at the familiar beams and beams, and couldn't help but think of his wife Li Tielan in his mind, after a few months, he still didn't let go of Li Tielan. Especially this house where Li Tielan has lived for ten years, it seems that Yun Xiaoxiao can recall the past in his heart when he sees every ornament and every ornament in the house.
Just when he was nostalgic for his old friend, the door was slammed open.
He didn't have to look to know who it was.
In the entire Shushan, there is no one who never knocks on the door when he enters his house, only Li Ziye is alone!
Today's Li Ziye's dress is a little different from the past, the snow-white silk Luo clothes are gone, but replaced by a set of gray-white plain clothes, a little less fairy, a little more solemn.
After she kicked open Yun Xiaoxie's door, she saw that Yun Xiaoxie was still lying on the bed, so she sat directly on the edge of the bed and hummed, "What time is it, why are you still sleeping?"
Yun Xiaoye glanced at him silently and said, "Do I have anything else to do now besides sleeping?"
Li Ziye choked and said, "There is good news, a piece of news, which one do you listen to first?"
Yun Xiaoye sat up and said, "What, there is good news now?"
Li Ziye said: "The four great monks of Jiaye Temple have arrived early this morning, and the disciples of Jiaye Temple and Wutai Mountain Buddhism, a total of more than 40,000 people, have arrived at the foot of Mount Emei. ”
Yun Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What? The people from the Buddhist Sect are here? Why did they come so quickly, I remember that my father said that he only informed the world of the sect a few days ago, and I thought that it would take at least three or five days for the people from the Jiaye Temple to come." ”
Li Ziye shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, but when we were still in Wushan in southern Xinjiang, there was a mysterious woman who notified Nian Ci of the Seven Steps Nunnery of Wutai Mountain to preside over the catastrophe. I also heard today that on the second day of the birth of the demon god, Qian 13 of Xiangxi suddenly ordered all the corpse chasers of the four major families in Xiangxi to gather in Laojun Mountain to discuss major matters, and on the third day, Qian 13 led tens of thousands of corpse chasers in Xiangxi to rush to the Qixing Mountain Range in the southwest of Xiangxi, Xiangxi is the fastest response of the Xiuzhen forces in China to deal with this catastrophe, and when the blood moon in southern Xinjiang has not dissipated, she has already deployed heavy troops in the Qixing Mountain Range to guard the main road into southern Xinjiang, and ......"
Speaking of this, Li Ziye suddenly pretended to be mysterious, and said in a low voice: "I heard that there was also a mysterious woman who informed the Qian Thirteen catastrophe on the second day of the demon god's birth, not only that, but the response of the Maoshan faction was not slow, Dao Xuan Zhenren began to rectify the disciples of the Maoshan faction on the third day, and it is said that she was also a mysterious woman who reported the news." ”
Yun Xiaoye frowned and said: "There is still such a strange woman in the world? Southern Xinjiang is tens of thousands of miles away from Middle Earth, does that woman have the ability to predict the future? When we were still in Wushan in Southern Xinjiang, she had already calculated the catastrophe coming? No, even if she really calculated the catastrophe coming, but this matter is too absurd, the thirteenth sister and Dao Xuan Zhenren are not ordinary people, how could they just rely on the words of that woman to mobilize the public?"
Li Ziye slapped his leg with his palm and said: "This is what I can't figure out, there are only two reasons for thinking about it, that is, the mysterious woman who informed these sects to prepare in advance is a famous fairy in the world, even more than the prestige of the top ten fairies in the past, and the only one who can convince the heads of these big factions is Miss Renqing, but Miss Renqing was with us in Southern Xinjiang at that time, and it was impossible for Miss Renqing to report the news." That's only the second reason. ”
Yun Xiaoxie is so smart, his eyes gradually lit up, and he said slowly: "Since it is not Ren Qing, that mysterious woman must have a deep friendship with these sects, so whether it is the thirteenth sister, or Dao Xuan Zhenren, Nian Ci Shitai, they all trust her very much." There should be a lot of fairies who are good friends with these sects in the world, there is no fuss, I just wonder how the woman who reported to the sects in the first place knew the news?"
Li Ziye shrugged and said, " This kind of unpredictable prophetic ability, should only be able to deduce the Tiangang Divine Calculation, Tiangang Divine Calculation can deduce the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, can also explore the three lives of the human life, very profound, Kunlun faction has this method, we Shushan seems to have been circulated, but it has long been lost, if there is anyone in this world who is possible to deduce the Tiangang Divine Calculation, that is only the little girl, she is the descendant of Qiankunzi, Qiankunzi passed the immortal golden body to her before his death, this Tiangang Divine Calculation Secret Method should also be passed to her, but at that time Xiaoya was also in southern Xinjiang, you say no wonder, now I am more and more interested in that mysterious woman, this time under the catastrophe, she should also appear, I really want to meet her for a while. ”
Yun Xiaoye didn't even pay much attention to the catastrophe in front of him now, and he was even less interested in this woman who suddenly appeared, seeing Li Ziye's eyes shining and saying, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.
Said: "You kicked open my door early in the morning, didn't you say that there was good news and bad news, and now that the good news is finished, what is the bad news?"
Li Ziye came back to his senses, his expression suddenly sank, and he said, "There is news from Heiwu Mountain in Southern Xinjiang." ”
Yun Xiaoye was taken aback and said, "How are the clansmen of the five clans in Southern Xinjiang?"
In the past few days, the periphery of the 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang has been filled with tens of thousands of beasts and demons, and the Shushan faction has sent more than ten groups of disciples to venture deep into southern Xinjiang to check the situation, but most of these Shushan disciples have no news, and only a few have escaped back, so for several days, the world does not know what happened to the Heiwu Mountain in southern Xinjiang.
Li Ziye shook his head and said: "It's even worse than expected, last night the three Shushan disciples touched into the Black Witch Mountain, but there were no demon beasts there, all over the mountains were human corpses and demon beast corpses, it seems that the five clans in Southern Xinjiang resisted desperately for three days, and all died in the Black Witch Mountain." Judging from the number and condition of the corpses, most of the corpses should have been eaten by demon beasts, and there was almost no complete corpse. ”
Yun Xiaoxie's face turned white for a moment.
Although he had only been to Southern Xinjiang twice, he knew that the five tribes of Southern Xinjiang were not uncivilized barbarians as the world had in their impression, and although the people of Southern Xinjiang were brave and ruthless, they were extremely friendly to the people of Middle-earth.
Mu Daqing, the great wizard of the Li tribe, and Ganu Qiher, the great wizard of the Miao people, are all people known to Yun Xiaoxi.
One is a kind and kind old man, and the other is an innocent little girl.
I didn't expect ...... And so they died.
Yun Xiaoye took a deep breath and said, "Don't have a single live mouth?"
Li Ziye shook his head and said, "No." Now the beast herd is still divided into six roads, and continues to sweep through the entire stockade of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang, I really don't know that even if this catastrophe is resolved, there will still be a few people left in southern Xinjiang. It is unimaginable how the hundreds of thousands of young warriors of the five clans in southern Xinjiang guarding the Black Witch Mountain held out for three days in the face of endless terrifying demon beasts, and how cruel the battle in those three days was, and there was hardly a complete corpse...... Ay. ”
Yun Xiaoye got out of bed silently, Li Ziye saw that he was depressed, and his eyes were sad and resentful, so she took Yun's shoes from under the bed, squatted down and put them on for Yun Xiaoxie.
Said: "In the face of such a catastrophe, casualties are inevitable, hey, if we can't resolve this catastrophe, how can the dead be the millions of Li people in southern Xinjiang?"
As he spoke, Li Ziye picked up Yun Xiaoxie's coat and gently put it on him, as if he was playing the role of Li Tielan for ten years, taking care of Yun Xiaoxie.
Yun Xiaoye let Li Ziye tie his belt, and after a long time, he slowly said: "Heavenly Dao benevolence, the human world is the foundation of the Three Realms, I believe that even in the face of the dilemma of mortality, Heavenly Dao will always give all living beings a ray of life." ”
Thousands of miles away, the Savage Temple.
The circular building complex stretches for more than ten miles, and I really don't know how the Demon Sect built such a large-scale architectural palace in a wild place.
In the Demon Sect's most important Xuanhuo Hall, at this moment, all the sect masters and bigwigs gathered together and quarreled endlessly.
Mu Qingyang, the Demon Monarch of the Ancient Demon Gate, said: "Although the Heavenly Demon Patriarch and the Righteous Path people signed that secret agreement at the first Kunlun Conference, but back then, our Holy Sect had no grievances with the Righteous Path, but now it is different, for more than three thousand years, how many disciples of our Holy Sect have died at the hands of the Righteous Path? Now that the demons have been born and the catastrophe has come, the righteous path wants to use us as cannon fodder, are we fools? How strong is the righteous path now, I think all of you here know very well that the human world today is no longer the human world of 40,000 years ago, and the righteous path is fully capable of resolving this catastrophe on its own, so we holy sects do not have to wade into this troubled water. ”
Yin Spirit Sect Sect Master Wu Tianxing frowned and said, "Demon Lord, this is the reason, but what if those people in the righteous path can't stop it? If Shu Mountain misses, the army of beast demons will pour into the prosperous Middle Earth without hindrance, and the next one will deal with us." ”
Ghost Jiu, the sect leader of the Dementor Sect, nodded and said: "The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, nothing more than that, the ancestor did have an agreement with the righteous path patriarch back then, and now the Shushan faction uses the reincarnation disk, one of the three ancient artifacts, to summon the world's cultivators, if we turn a blind eye, we are only afraid of ...... I'm afraid that I will be blamed by the world. ”
Mu Qingyang said coldly: "Our Holy Sect has been criticized by the people of the world for many years, is it a great opportunity, when both the righteous path and the beast demon are defeated, we will come out again to clean up the mess, not only can we drive away the beast demon, but also destroy the main force of the righteous path, from now on, the prosperous Middle Earth is the world of our Holy Sect." This is the lifelong wish of all the Taoist friends here. The attitude of the old man is very clear, the evil is rampant, let the right way deal with it, and we can just take advantage of the fisherman. ”
In the Xuanhuo Palace, the voices of discussion were all over again, and hundreds of Demon Sect Sect Masters and Elders were whispering, calculating the gains and losses. For a time, they were divided into two factions, one advocated sending troops to cooperate with the righteous path to jointly resolve the catastrophe in front of them. The first is to advocate watching from the wall and reaping the benefits of fishermen.
The people of the two factions argued endlessly, and gradually formed a boiling trend.
Xiao Ya and the others naturally sent troops from the main station, but the Ancient Demon Sect strongly opposed it, but instead made the other two factions of the Demon Sect, the Blood Condensation Hall and the Hehuan Sect, a little indecisive and silent.
Seeing that everyone was arguing again, the sect leader of the Blood Condensation Hall, Wan Qizi, coughed lightly and said, "You have been arguing here for more than ten hours, and there is no point in arguing like this. ”
Xiaoya said: "Sect Master Wan, what do you think?"
Wan Qizi glanced at Xiaoya, then at Mu Qingyang, and said with a wry smile: "This time the catastrophe is different from the past, any decision may affect the fate of the entire Holy Sect. As the Demon Lord said, the strength of the Righteous Path factions is indeed extraordinary, but what the Wu Sect Master said is not false...... In case the righteous path can't stop the demon, when the demon finishes cleaning up the righteous path, it will naturally clean us up, and it's really difficult to make a decision for a while. ”
As he spoke, he looked at Madame Hongmian, the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, who had been silent.
"Fairy, your Hehuan lineage has a pivotal position in the Holy Sect, what is your opinion?"
Mrs. Hongmian is over 400 years old this year, and she looks no different from a thirty-year-old woman, and there is no enchanting atmosphere, which shows that her Taoism is unfathomable.
For hundreds of years, Mrs. Kapok has always been on both sides of the wall, not offending the Demon Sect or the Demon Sect, and she is extremely low-key in the Holy Sect, and has never fought for anything.
At this moment, Wan Qizi just wanted to ask Mrs. Hongmian to come out and say something, to make a round, knowing that she had no opinions, let alone any opinions.
originally thought that Mrs. Hongmian would say "you look at it" as she had encountered major events in the past, but at this moment, Mrs. Hongmian stood up, with a bit of solemnity on her beautiful face.
"I want to ask you, what is the doctrine of our Holy Sect?"
Everyone was stunned, and they didn't seem to expect that Mrs. Hongmian, who had always been low-key, would suddenly say such strange words.
Mu Qingyang frowned and said, "Madam, what do you mean by this?"
Madam Hongmian said lightly: "Why, don't any of you still remember the doctrine of our Holy Sect?"
Everyone looked at each other silently, and for a while, the entire Xuanhuo Hall was silent.
Mrs. Hongmian looked sad and sang slowly: "Burn my body, the fire is raging." What joy is life, and what is the pain of death......"
The gloomy ghost gentleman sitting at the bottom of the house, after hearing Mrs. Hongmian's chanting, his whole body suddenly trembled, and he slowly stood up.
The next moment, the Demon Sect masters present also stood up one after another, their faces were extremely solemn, their hands were folded, and they bowed their heads silently.
Lady Hongmian's chanting voice was crisp and pleasant, but there was always a sadness that flowed in the voice.
"For the sake of good and evil, only for the sake of light. Joy and sorrow are dust. Have mercy on the world, and there are many sorrows......" (Doctrine from: Heaven and Dragon Slayer. )
Almost everyone sang in a low voice along with Lady Hongmian, looking extremely religious.
After a long time, Mrs. Hongmian said: "The Heavenly Demon Ancestor has opened up a line of holy religion in this wild and evil land with his own strength, which has been passed down from today for more than 3,500 years, and the doctrine passed down by the ancestor back then is to let us eliminate evil for good and save the people in the world, but today, ...... A few months ago, at the Kunlun Mountain Conference, when I saw the heavenly monument engraved with the name of the patriarch, I suddenly felt very ashamed in my heart, and the thirteen rules of heaven that have been passed down through the ages were formulated with the participation of the patriarch, but now, we disciples of the Holy Sect, who still remembers the thirteen rules of heaven? Since ancient times, the Demon God of the Open Heaven opened the heavens and the earth, created the world, and the Holy Mother of the Netherworld gave birth to all things and had compassion for the world, and we are all disciples of the Holy Mother and the Demon God, and we have all made a poisonous oath in front of the statue of the Double Holy God......
Speaking of this, she seemed to smile miserably, and said: "I don't want to say anything more, that's all, as for the outcome of your quarrel, I will follow it." ”
Everyone was speechless, and many people were ashamed. Even Mu Qingyang, the fiercest demon lord who had been arguing just now, suddenly stopped talking.
Wan Qizi looked at everyone's faces, and then looked at Mrs. Hongmian, who looked helpless, and suddenly found that Mrs. Hongmian, who had not been visible for hundreds of years, was so devout to the Holy Mother and the Demon God in her heart.
He knew that when Lady Hongmian chanted the teachings of the Holy Sect, the major events that had been arguing for more than a dozen hours had already come to fruition.
He coughed and said, "Send troops, send troops, I agree with the Blood Condensation Hall to send troops to Middle Earth, unite with the righteous path, and save the people in the world." In order to repay the grace of the Virgin and the demon god. ”
Wu Tianxing said: "My Yin Spirit Sect also agrees to send troops, and elects Sect Master Wan as the person in charge of the Holy Sect this time!"
The little girl said crisply: "I agree with the Netherworld Sect. ”
One after another, the Demon Sect Sect Masters stood up, and in the end, Mu Qingyang saw that it was difficult to disobey everyone's will, so he had to nod in agreement.
A long time ago, the Demon Sect was no different from the Kunlun Sect and the Shushan Sect, they were all cultivators, and it was their mission to help sentient beings for the Heavenly Dao, but now there are still a few Demon Sect disciples who remember the original teachings?
Wan Qizi once again became the head of the Demon Sect, after some discussion.
He said aloud: "Since everyone has been elected to preside over the overall situation of the Holy Sect for the time being, now that the situation is urgent, I will not shirk it. Pass on my order, the current six sects, eight sects, and thirteen sects in the Holy Sect, as well as all the small sects of the Holy Sect, the Immortal Mansion, and the scattered cultivators, immediately set off and gather towards the Yumen Pass, and all the sect branches must rush to the Yumen Pass within three days, if there is any delay, don't blame me for asking for the canons of the Holy Sect, and each department of the Five Elements Banner will draw half of its strength and be led by the Great Elder to go to Middle-earth together, and the rest of the Five Elements Banner disciples will be led by the Blue Dragon Holy Envoy among the four great holy envoys, and sit in the temple in case of accidents. ”
