Chapter 647: White Lotus Holy Maiden
The White Lotus army left Yongning City, and Chen Feng decided on his next destination. This place must be close to each other, but it must also be an important city.
Chen Feng set his sights on Chengdu, the most important gateway to the southwest. To go to Chengdu, you have to pass through Yazhou and Jiading Prefecture, and you just go to see the situation there.
The army advanced slowly, and when they were in Yongning Mansion, they had prepared enough dry food for 100,000 believers, and everyone carried it by themselves, which also saved the need for food and grass escort.
Chen Feng, Blue Butterfly, Zhao Lin, Ya Bin, Hua Guang, and He Rencai rode on horses, and Li Lu, who commanded the army, also rode horses, and the rest of the White Lotus army was running on foot. As for Gu Dezhong, who was captured, he followed Chen Feng all the way. Before the Great Law of Soul Dementorship was lifted, he could only obey Chen Feng's orders.
The speed of the army's advance is also okay, and after two days of driving, the city of Yazhou is already in sight. It's just frustrating that the White Lotus flag is flying at the head of the city, and it seems that Yazhou City has been occupied by the White Lotus Sect.
"Gu Dezhong, do you know which way of attacking Yazhou City?" asked Chen Feng.
Gu Dezhong replied truthfully: "The thirty-seven road lotus marshal is deployed in various places, and Yazhou is under the jurisdiction of the Sichuan Xingdu Division, so the five road lotus marshals have been mobilized in this area, and the fire Vajra Tian Lie of the Nine Great King Kongs will specially sit in command to deal with the army of the Sichuan Xingdu Division. ”
Wulu Lianshuai, if each road is calculated according to the 150,000 army, then the five roads are 750,000 troops!
When Chen Feng heard this number before, he would definitely be shocked. But now, he's numb to the numbers.
Chengdu is an extremely important place, and it is reasonable to mobilize heavy troops to attack.
There is just one thing Chen Feng is very curious about: "Gu Dezhong, with your identity, you should attack such an important place as the capital, how can you come to attack Yongning City?"
Gu Dezhong replied: "Originally, I came to you with this army, and chased all the way to Yongning, because the time for the uprising was just right, so I attacked Yongning Mansion by the way." ”
Chen Feng was speechless for a while, he didn't expect that the disaster in Yongning Mansion was brought by himself. Fortunately, there were not many casualties in Yongning Mansion, and Chen Feng could be regarded as making up for the merits and resolving the crisis there.
In the face of Yazhou City, which does not know the specific situation, there are two roads in front of you. One is to take a detour, and the other is to take Yazhou City first.
"Commander Li, what do you think we should do now?" Chen Feng consulted Li Lu's opinion. Now he is not the only one, and the lives of 100,000 troops are in his hands, so it is natural to be cautious and cautious in making decisions.
Li Lu said: "Let's take advantage of the night to investigate the situation in Yazhou City, but if we want to enter the city, I'm afraid we will have to bother Chen and the horses." ”
Chen Feng was naturally obliged, he did not bring anyone else with him, but went alone with Gu Dezhong to approach Yazhou City.
From a distance, there were only a small number of defenders scattered on the city walls. The people of the White Lotus Sect are so confident that they have captured a city, but they are not good at defending it.
However, they were not wrong to do so, because the imperial court was completely on the defensive, and did not care about the occupied city at all.
Chen Feng's White Lotus army, which came all the way, can be said to be the only soldiers and horses that can move freely.
He and Gu Dezhong easily climbed over the city wall, and there were indeed not many people left, and it was estimated that there were only about 1,000 people.
But looking inside the city, what you see is stunning.
At night, a wide street in the middle of the city was lit up by torches, and all the people of the city lined up and bowed down. And in the direction of their kneeling, there was a simple high platform made of wood, on which stood a woman in white.
You can't see your face clearly from a distance, and even if you get close, you can't see clearly, because the woman in white is wearing a white veil, and the veil is imprinted with the pattern of a white lotus. Looking at the hair fluttering in the wind, you can also judge her gender.
The woman in white was dancing on the high platform, maybe she was still talking, but the distance was too far for Chen Feng to hear at all. As for the people who bowed down, sometimes they knelt quietly, and sometimes they made a great prostration.
Chen Feng hurriedly asked Gu Dezhong beside him: "Who is the woman in white?"
"She is the White Lotus Holy Maiden under the Lotus Queen's seat! If we want to say that we are the messenger of the White Lotus Emperor, then the White Lotus Holy Maiden is the messenger of the Lotus Queen. After we recruit believers, we also have to hand them over to the Lotus Queen or the White Lotus Holy Maiden, and only they have the White Lotus Divine Water. Gu Dezhong explained.
Only then did Chen Feng understand that what the woman in white was doing right now was to bewitch the people in Yazhou City.
"How long will this ritual take? Isn't it just a matter of drinking the White Lotus Divine Water?" Chen Feng asked curiously.
Gu Dezhong said: "If you can drink the divine water, then we can also do it, and directly pour the divine water on the people." But it is useless to just drink the divine water, and it is necessary to pass through the teachings of the Lotus Queen or the White Lotus Holy Maiden to teach them the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, so that the believers will willingly obey our orders. ”
Chen Feng immediately reacted, as long as the ceremony was interrupted, then the people would not obey the orders of the White Lotus Sect.
Thinking of this, Chen Feng ghostly approached the White Lotus Holy Maiden. But before the White Lotus Holy Maiden approached, two figures rushed out of the shadows.
The two of them seemed to have been secretly protecting the White Lotus Holy Maiden, and when they saw Chen Feng attacking, they immediately appeared to resist.
Chen Feng's palms had already stretched out, the internal force of yin and yang was condensed, and the power of the demon palm was infinite.
And the two of them also slapped a palm to resist, but the palm power was quite familiar.
Chen Feng felt that he was an acquaintance, so he immediately dissolved part of the power of the clutches of the gods. If they use all their strength to hold two palms, these two people will not die and will be seriously injured. After dissolving most of the power, the palm power of the two sides competed separately, and the internal forces surged against each other.
"Uncle Qian, Second Uncle Deng!" Chen Feng shouted in surprise.
The two people in front of them are Qian Baili and Deng Jiuliu of Mantuo Villa. Chen Feng saw Deng Jiuliu's Chixia palm technique, so he weakened his palm power, otherwise he would have killed and injured these two people, but there was no way to explain to Murong Miaoyue.
Qian Baili and Deng Jiuliu took a closer look and finally recognized Chen Feng. Both of them were excited, and everyone put away their internal strength to greet each other.
Chen Feng couldn't help but glance at the back of the White Lotus Holy Maiden, and his heart was already turbulent.
She ...... Is she Miaoyue?"
Qian Baili nodded: "It's my young lady." ”
"How did you join the White Lotus Sect, and how did Miao Yue become the White Lotus Holy Maiden?" Chen Feng's heart was full of questions.
Qian Baili looked around, and quickly pulled Chen Feng to a corner where no one was paying attention, and then explained: "Although my young lady never forgets you, every time she hears about your heroic deeds, she doesn't dare to look for you." ”
"Why don't you dare to come to me?" Chen Feng scratched his head, not knowing what to do.
Deng Jiuliu said angrily: "You Chen Feng is famous, and now you are the deputy leader of the martial arts alliance, and what about my young lady......? Murong Guiyun's daughter, and Murong Guiyun's seizure of the Divine Sword of the Hidden Sword Villa is notorious. Even if he is dead now, there are still people who spit on Mantuo Villa. Miss...... Miss, she feels less and less worthy of you......!"
