Chapter 197: The thief has no courage to open the door
The abnormal move in the direction of Guangming Ding soon attracted the attention of the six factions stationed in the first line of gorges.
"The gate of the mountain is open, and there is no defense!"
Hearing the news from the mouth of the inquisitor, Xian Yu, the head of the Huashan faction, who was originally leaning on the chair and pretending to sleep, jumped up suddenly, with a surprised expression, and asked again, and learned that there were no half demon sect demons at the gate of Guangming Ding Mountain, and the road up the mountain was completely unobstructed, so he was sure that he had not heard it wrong.
"What kind of trick is the Demon Sect doing? The six factions are gathering in the first line of the gorge, but he is putting on a completely unguarded posture, isn't he afraid that we will rush up and kill at the top of the light?"
Xian Yutong frowned and paced back and forth in the tent, looking pensive.
The inquisitor suggested in a low voice, "Master, why don't we send a team of people in there to take a look?"
After hearing this, Xian Yu shook his head and said: "If you don't even understand the opponent's intentions, you will attack the enemy lightly, and the wise man will not take it! ”
Xian Yutong said as he walked out of the tent. When he was about to leave the accommodation, he met Bai Hechou and the others who were sent out to search for Zhang Wuji to no avail, so he frowned and asked, "What do you catch?"
Bai Hechou and the others shook their heads with a solemn face when they saw the head uncle's face.
Xian Yutong glanced at Bai Hechou with some disgust, and said coldly: "Since there is no whereabouts of that kid, what are you going to do when you come back?"
Bai Hechou hurriedly said: "Uncle Master, we met a martial arts master with great light skills outside, and we felt that something was wrong......
"What's so strange about it? Now that there are many masters in the Western Regions, if you see a martial arts master, you will be scared to run back, and you still can't do anything?" Xian Yutong is now thinking about the intentions of the Demon Lord, how can he have time to pay attention to these, and waved his hand impatiently: "Continue to go out to look for it! At this critical juncture, if you find that Zhang Wuji one step earlier, you will have a head start!"
After Bai Hechou and the others heard this, they didn't dare to argue anymore, and they didn't even have time to enter the camp, so they turned around and walked again. When he walked to a no-man's corner, he took a low sip and scolded in a low voice: "Ungrateful Xian Yutong! My father took such good care of you when he was there, but you embarrassed me like this when he died!"
After leaving the camp, Xian Yutong thought about it and went straight to the Shaolin camp. However, halfway through, I always felt a little apprehensive in my heart, so I came back and called the two old men, so I was relieved to go.
On the way, he met He Taichong and his wife from the Kunlun faction, and Xian Yutong avoided the side to give a salute from afar, but He Taichong only bowed slightly, and walked straight over without stopping.
When the old man saw He Taichong despising his own head so much, he couldn't get angry, and shouted angrily: "He Taichong, your eyes are panting?"
Mrs. He turned her head and glared angrily, but Ban Shuxian on the side said, "It's important to get down to business, what nonsense to talk about with them!" With that, the two walked straight to the Shaolin camp.
The old man still scolded him, but Xian Yutong dissuaded him. Among the heads of various factions, he is at the bottom of the martial arts, but he can endure what others can't bear, he is humble and polite to the outside, and he is known for his resourcefulness in the martial arts.
Outside the Shaolin camp, Xian Yutong saw Song Yuanqiao and Yu Lianzhou, who were wandering at the gate of the camp but did not enter, so he asked with a smile: "Why don't Song Daxia and Yu Erxia go in?"
The two of them glanced at each other, and shook their heads in embarrassment: "There will inevitably be a dispute, let's wait here for the results of your discussion." ”
Xian Yu knew that Shaolin and Wudang had been stiffened because of Zhang Wuji's injury to the empty wisdom monk and the killing of more than a dozen Shaolin **, so it was naturally not good to enter the Shaolin camp again at this time. As soon as his heart moved, he persuaded: "The two of them are wrong, the scholars talk about forbearance for the country, and we who practice martial arts are the first in righteousness." The Demon Sect is the common enemy of our martial arts righteous path, and even if there were some misunderstandings between the various factions in the past, in the face of this major right and wrong, we must put it aside for the time being. No matter how domineering Shaolin is, it can't keep the chivalrous Wudang faction out. Let's go in together!"
Hearing this, Song Yu and the others also felt quite moved, and after a little thought, they walked in with Xian Yutong.
Shaolin ** saw the people sent by Wudang and Huashan, naturally they would not have any good faces, especially for the two Wudang factions, they all looked at each other angrily, and it took a lot of effort to resist the urge to drive people out of the camp, and naturally no one came forward to greet them.
The five of them entered the tent in the camp and found that the leaders of the other factions had arrived. The exterminator and He Taichong sat on the top, and the five elders of Kongtong, who came the most, were quite aggrieved and located near the door, and when they saw Wudang and Huashan sending, they couldn't help but lean up.
The camp was filled with a pungent smell of medicinal herbs, and the seriously injured Empty Wisdom Divine Monk was wrapped in a thick felt quilt, supported by the Empty Xìng Divine Monk and barely sat still. Yu Lianzhou stepped forward to greet him, but he was glanced at coldly, and he was bored.
The Empty Wisdom Divine Monk reluctantly cheered up, and said in a weak tone: "I think you also know that the gate of Guangmingding Mountain is wide open, what he wants to do, how we should deal with it, let's discuss it." ”
When they heard this, they fell silent. Originally, the various factions came to attack the Bright Peak, but after a few twists and turns, they had already forgotten their original intentions in their hearts, even if the Bright Peak was now putting on an undefended posture, they now had no idea of continuing to attack the Bright Peak, but because of this, their minds were floating, worried that the demon sect and demons would trick again, which could be said to be a complete loss of sharpness.
After a long time, Song Yuanqiao said: "Our original intention is to attack the Bright Peak, no matter what tricks the demon sect demons use, the Bright Peak is here, and there is no defense." Let's gather all factions to operate, kill the generals in one fell swoop, and break any tricks with force!"
As soon as these words came out, the camp was so silent that even the sound of breathing was imperceptible. After a moment, the exterminator sneered, but did not speak. And He Taichong said unceremoniously: "Song Daxia was confused by your good teacher and nephew." Let's wait for him to fight the Demon Lord in a shocking battle, if he kills him, won't it ruin his plan to be in the limelight......"
Yu Lianzhou snorted coldly and said unhappily: "My nephew has endured a lot of suffering since he was a child, but he still has great righteousness in his heart, and there is a clear distinction between good and evil. This challenge to the Demon Monarch is all about upholding the justice of the martial arts, but what does it have to do with the limelight? With such a big show, the Kunlun faction and the Guangming Peak have lived side by side for a hundred years, so why didn't he do it earlier?"
Hearing this ridicule, Mrs. He's old face suddenly turned red, and she was speechless for a while. And Ban Shuxian sneered: "Our Kunlun faction doesn't have such a great creation, and if we can't get the dragon slaying knife that commands the martial arts, we really don't have the courage to fight head-on with the demon sect demons with monstrous demon flames." ”
Song Yuanqiao saw that the topic was about to shift to a bad direction again, so he hurriedly spoke: "Senior brother, let's discuss the strange behavior of the Demon Sect, don't talk about unrelated matters." ”
Kongtong Sect Guan Neng sighed and said: "At the beginning, our six factions agreed to besiege Guangming Ding, and when they came out of the Jade Gate Pass, how they were like a rainbow, but now they are controlled everywhere, because the small actions of the Demon Sect have caused panic!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt it and fell silent. After a while, Tang Wenliang said angrily: "If it weren't for someone deliberately delaying and delaying the meeting, how could our various factions be running around like headless flies in the Western Regions, not to mention a lot of manpower losses, and the opportunity was lost." “
Hearing this, He Taichong pulled down his face and said unhappily: "The Kunlun Sect and the Guangming Peak are so close, if we don't avoid it early, we will have to fight that demon Yang Xiao alone." Speaking of the wrong place, how can you not say that you acted carelessly and leaked the news, so that the Demon Sect demons would have learned about this matter as soon as possible? If we hadn't seen the opportunity early, our Kunlun Sect would have been surrounded and suppressed by the Demon Sect demons long ago! Fortunately, we were lucky enough to escape this catastrophe and survive. At the beginning, who patted ** and promised that the Demon Sect was divided, and the various departments were deeply conflicted, even if they knew the news, they would sit idly by? What is happening now? The Demon Lord is here, the Sky Eagle Sect is also here, and the demons who are worthy of the name of the Demon Sect have all come to the Bright Peak!"
Xian Yutong's face flushed, and he said embarrassedly: "What's the point of arguing about these now, let's get together in one place, and we have to come up with a charter for this strange behavior of the Demon Sect." What do you say? Shall we watch the changes, or do we go to the top of the light as Song Daxia said?"
Shaolin was originally the most enthusiastic about attacking the Guangming Peak, but through Zhang Wuji's sneak attack, the Kongzhi Divine Monks were seriously injured, and the lesson of blood made them hesitate. After pondering for a long time, the Empty Wisdom Divine Monk had the strength to say, "It's better to be cautious......"
At this moment, there was a sudden noise and exclamation outside the Shaolin camp, and before everyone could get up to ask what was going on, they saw that the door curtain was suddenly opened, and then a figure broke into the camp like a wind, and the figure stood still, and everyone saw clearly that it was a middle-aged man with pale cheeks and a green shirt, and then someone exclaimed: "Blue Winged Bat King Wei smiled!"
Wei Yixiao went deep into the enemy camp, but his expression was very relaxed, he looked around, clenched his fists and smiled: "You have come from afar, the Mingjiao greeting is not good, atone for your sins!"
Exterminator Tai Huo Ran got up and said coldly: "Wei Yixiao, you blood-sucking demon, don't you want to live alone?"
was glared at by everyone, but Wei Yixiao was not nervous at all, and waved his hand and said: "The exterminator is too serious, I came this time to pass on a message from my sect master." The two countries are not at war, and everyone here is a famous knight, how could they do such a thing. ”
"Sect Master, when did the Demon Sect have another Sect Master? Isn't Yang Dingtian dead!"
Hearing Wei Yixiao's words, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
Wei Yixiao chuckled and said, "I told you that the Demon Lord Zhao Wuxian has won the support of the top and bottom of our sect and has officially become the thirty-fourth sect leader of this sect. I came this time on the orders of Sect Leader Zhao to bring you a message. Our sect leader said that Zhang Shaoxia of the Wudang faction had the courage to swallow the sky, and he dared to challenge our sect leader. Presumably, you also admire Zhang Shaoxia very much, but you didn't have the chance to see it. If you want to go up the mountain as a guest, or watch a battle, you can do whatever you want, don't be too restricted. ”
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned on the spot, on the one hand, they were shocked that the Demon Lord was able to suppress the demons and end the decades of chaos in the Demon Sect. On the other hand, it is to guess the deep meaning behind the Demon Lord's almost luring the wolf into the house.
After a long time, the exterminator Taicai snorted coldly and said, "I won't go to the place where the filth and dirt are hidden!"
"Shi Taihao's clever remarks, since you don't want to go to the top of the light and come all the way to the Western Regions, don't you plan to just watch from the bottom of the mountain, and we will run away?" Wei Yi sneered and arched his hand: "The words have been brought, what do you plan, we will not pay attention to it." ”
With that, another gust of wind swept out of the tent and galloped away.
The people in charge of each faction remained in the camp, their faces were uncertain, and they did not know how to deal with it.
To go, or not to go?
It's hard to choose.
Tan Songhe said: "It's best not to redeem, so that Tie Huali will be cut off, so that he is willing to be obedient, so that we can send troops to the grassland to help him recapture the tribe, so that the big war can begin, let him fight whoever he wants, and stir the sudden sense into a pot of paste!"
Yang Ze didn't squeak, he didn't know much about these things, he knew the general direction, but where would he know the specific details, so it was the best policy not to express his opinion at this time, so as not to expose the bottom.
The city gate hole is not long, just a few words of effort, it came to an end, as soon as the city gate hole, the sun was dazzling, Yang Ze squinted his eyes, and when he saw the scene in the city, he couldn't help but be taken aback!
I saw that on both sides of the street, there were people standing full, crowds of people, not only the roadside was full of people, but even the houses were climbed up, as they came out of the city gate, the earth-shaking cheers rang out, and the people saluted the warriors who returned from the "expedition"!
Although Dafang suddenly felt that he had made peace for the time being, no one would think that this peace would last long, and sooner or later there would be a war between the Central Plains Empire and the Steppe Khanate, and the two powerful countries could only conquer the other, and they would not be called brothers forever, peace was just a flash in the pan!
Yang Ze followed behind Wei Yuancheng, and saw several old men, known locally as Su Lao, each of them holding a bowl of wine, standing on the side of the road, waiting for Yang Ze and others to come over, and come forward together to present wine!
The leading elder, holding a wine bowl in his hand, said loudly: "Our people, welcome the triumph of the expedition of the army, and my generous army is mighty!"
Wei Yuancheng bowed his hand to the elders on the horse, took the wine bowl, raised it high, and saluted the people around him. Mighty!"
The people cheered, and another earth-shattering cheer rang out!
Yang Ze followed Wei Yuancheng's example, and also drank the wine, looking at the countless cheering people, he secretly said in his heart: "This is not an expedition, nor is it a triumph, but the people insist on saying this, how much they hate Sudden Jue, but unfortunately I didn't grow up in this era." Can't understand what they're thinking!"
The brigade entered the city, and the long prison carts lined up in the streets, marching in sequence. A prisoner cart at the front was loaded with Tie Huali, and beside the car, more than a dozen shield bearers were guarded. The task of these shield-bearers is to keep the iron flower out of the stone. I was afraid that he would be killed, and the dead King of Tujue Khan was worthless, and only alive could he have his value.
Sure enough, after the prisoner cart and the brigade of sudden prisoners took to the street, the cheers of the people turned into shouting and scolding, and countless stones flew over. Calling the Sudden Prisoners, the Sudden Prisoners were beaten until their heads were bleeding, and everything they experienced in Guazhou was experienced again in Linzhou and the whole city. And the rocks came more, bigger, more violent, and it hurt them more!
When walking to the Marquis's Palace. Except that Tie Huali was not smashed because he was protected by a shield hand. The other prisoners were all wounded, their noses were blue and their faces were slightly swollen, and many of them were bleeding from their heads, and because they were not bandaged, they were almost all bleeding and staggering, as if they were going to die at any moment.
On the way, Yang Baiqiu and Zhang sat in the car, and he
