In the early morning, the mist is curling. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Outside the government office, the army has been assembled. There were three masters, each with an apprentice and carrying equipment, another twenty elite armor who were responsible for security and security, and several attendants carrying packages and other things. The package contained gold and silver gifts.
The so-called "etiquette", this word of etiquette is quite exquisite, not only refers to etiquette, but also has to have gifts, otherwise it is strange to come empty-handed and not eat closed-door soup.
Chen Sanlang rode on a horse and waved goodbye to Xu Jun and the others who saw him off.
Xu Jun did not accompany her this time, because Chen Wangshi told her that the current situation is stable, and the family affairs delayed by her and Chen Sanlang should be put back on the agenda, and an auspicious day should be chosen, and they should visit the church as soon as possible.
Of course, Xu Jun had no opinion, so he stayed in Laoshan Mansion to help prepare.
The horses set off, their hooves tapping on the ground, making a rhythmic sound. When they arrived at the city gate, a figure stood there, it was the leisurely and rich road with a full robe.
"Open the door!"
Chen Sanlang gave an order, and the personnel who guarded the city gate hurriedly started to slowly open the gate and put down the drawbridge.
In the cool morning breeze, the marching fish rushed out, out of the city, and headed towards Laoshan Mountain.
Laoshan is not far from the city, and the goal was set in Laoshan Mansion in this regard. After all, if the road is too long, the cost of mineral transportation will double, and it is inconvenient to develop and utilize.
Some people ride horses, some people walk, and the speed naturally has to be taken into account. When they arrived outside the city, several horsemen dispersed and took the lead in the first departure, responsible for patrolling and guarding.
Chen Sanlang had already ordered someone to prepare a horse for Xiaoyao Fudao, and the two walked side by side, occasionally talking something. In the conversation, he naturally talked about the Shura Demon Sect.
"The Shura witch was killed by us, and the Demon Sect will definitely not give up. ”
Chen Sanlang asked, "In your opinion, how will they behave?"
Xiaoyao Fudao's face was a little solemn: "I'm afraid that the magic horse will be dispatched." ”
"Demon Rider?"
Xiaoyao Fudao slowly introduced, he arrived at Laoshan Mansion first, walked on the streets, and was a cultivator, and he knew a lot about the structure of the Shura Demon Sect.
After hearing this, Chen Sanlang couldn't help but nod and suddenly came over.
The Shura Demon Sect is also a sect, but it cultivates evil and acts strangely, and has never been tolerated by the orthodox Taoism. This time the world was in turmoil, and the dragon qi collapsed and spread into the wilderness. The people in the Demon Sect have the heart to enter the Central Plains, and they hit it off with Shi Pojun, and immediately raised troops to attack.
The level of the Demon Sect, the highest should be the leader, and there are apologists below, Shura Witches, etc. Among them, the Shura Demon Rider is a walking corpse that has been refined, and it is transformed by selecting the most devout believers, which is invulnerable, inviolable, and extremely fierce.
From another point of view, this demon rider is the Taoist soldier of the Daomen and the protector of the Buddha. It's just that the magic riders are neither human nor demon, nor demon, and there are not many of them, but they are all elite and extraordinary.
Xiaoyao Fudao sighed: "If there is a demon rider coming, I am afraid that only one will come, and this way will be enough to choke." ”
The soul of the demon rider has been refined by secret methods, not afraid of the Dao method, and the torso has been soaked in countless potions, it is nine hundred and eighty-one days, hard as steel, ordinary knives, guns and arrows hit it, and even traces cannot be left, it is really difficult to deal with.
Chen Sanlang asked: "Is it really that powerful?"
Xiaoyao Fudao replied: "Of course, how could Ben Dao have done such a thing to destroy his own prestige? However, there will never be many of them, and even if they are dispatched, they will only be more than ten riders at most. ”
More than ten rides?
Chen Sanlang breathed a sigh of relief, this amount is really nothing for the current government office. No matter how fierce it is, under the strangulation of thousands of soldiers, it is doomed to ashes.
Xiaoyao Fudao said: "In fact, what this Dao is most worried about is that the demon cavalry will definitely not attack the city directly, but guerrilla warfare, which will be troublesome." ”
Chen Sanlang knows the truth, if the other party comes and goes like the wind, it will naturally give people a headache and it will be difficult to encircle and suppress. In that case, the situation in the prefecture, which has finally been calmed down, will once again make waves, and the people's hearts will be in turmoil, and I don't know how much work it will take to calm down again.
The people's hearts are like water, and they are the most prone to recurrence, and they are also the most afraid of recurrence.
It was early and the morning light was faint, but outside the city, there were many shadows, and many peasants had already arrived, holding hoes and starting to work. Since the promulgation of various decrees on the benefit of the people, inside and outside the city, basically every household has been allocated their own fields, and has received a lot of cultivation benefits, everyone is enthusiastic, the enthusiasm is very high, and they can't be idle at all, every day is to get up early and go down to the field in the dark, and strive to catch up with the good season to cultivate and sow seeds, and also catch up with a wave of good harvests.
With the harvest and the grain, this heart is truly steady. Since the arrival of the barbarian army, many families have not had a harvest for a long time. Famine was rife and he had to be displaced and beg in other places.
Looking at the pictures of hard work, Chen Sanlang felt happy and worried. The joyful ones, with the implementation of the decree, the people's livelihood gradually began to recover, but the worried, but the worried, but they have just heard the news that the demon horsemen may be dispatched, if they wreak havoc in the wilderness and the horses' hooves trample on them, everything that has been built up with great difficulty will be in vain......
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but clench his fists: never let that happen!
Xiaoyao Fu said: "When the Shura Demon Horse is dispatched, it must be transferred back from the border, and it will take some time. ”
What he meant was to remind Chen Sanlang and ask him to prepare early.
Chen Sanlang nodded, thought about it, called a soldier beside him, and spoke carefully.
After hearing this, the soldier immediately said, "Don't worry, Childe, I will tell Mr. Zhou word for word." Le turned his horse's head and galloped back to the city.
At present, Jiang Caoqi has not returned to the city, and he will not be able to return until at least tomorrow afternoon. Chen Sanlang first explained to Zhou Fencao and asked him to discuss with Jiang Caoqi to formulate some defensive measures first, so as to prevent problems before they happen, and thought it was necessary.
As for my own group, go to Laoshan, if it goes well, you can return in three days, and there will be no delay.
Chen Sanlang asked about the purpose plan of the Xiaoyao Fudao to return to Laoshan Mountain, and the Taoist priest smiled: "This Dao is also considered a brocade at the moment, so it is time to return to the hometown and formulate the reopening of the sect." ”
Chen Sanlang thought so, and asked again: "Then you can't recruit disciples?"
"Yes, in the city I have taken two boys. As for the disciples, they have to pay attention to chance qualifications. ”
In fact, he is still very young, and at the level of cultivation, he belongs to the juniors, and if he changes to another sect, he will have children after him. However, the sect declined, so he had to bite the bullet and become a master. It has established a certain reputation in Laoshan Mansion, and there is no need to worry about food and clothing in Guanzhong, so it is not difficult to find some children with clever personalities.
It's just that the mantle is passed down from one to another, but it is not a simple matter to find a successor, you have to be cautious, and you are not in a hurry.
Laoshan is a vein, and the root is all in Laoshan Mountain, not the Taoist temple of Laoshan Mansion. The Taoist priest felt that the time was almost up, so he returned to the mountain gate. Last time, he and Chen Sanlang went back to the mountain to get things, but this time, they were thinking about moving back.
