Chapter 36: The Great Purge

Zhao Pan and Jia Ye were released and fell to the ground, and escaped for the time being. "Hurry up, Master, hold on for a while. It's an order, quick!" Shakon whispered to Kaya.

With tears in his eyes, he said, "Yes, Master!" He turned to the other monks who were hiding and said, "Protect the box, come with me!" Zhao Pan, you also mention two. ”

"Huh?" The hand that was placed on Zhao Pan's neck was released, and he pulled out a small thing in Zhao Pan's collar, he took a closer look at it by the moonlight, and suddenly sighed and said, "Alas, we have all been tricked!"

"No wonder,!" Kaye scolded at the sight.

When Zhao Pan heard this, he seemed to be hit on the head, and his mind was dizzy for a while, he finally understood, Zhang Dongjie let him go, and then found someone to chase him, all of this is a trick designed, the purpose is to use him as bait to catch the big fish of Siddhartha, Zhang Dongjie really did not think about letting him go, but planned to eradicate him and Siddhartha Dharma together.

"Zhang Dongjie, you villain!" Zhao Pan scolded, hurriedly hunched over and lifted the two boxes, he knew when he mentioned it, he guessed correctly just now, this box is heavy enough.

At this time, he made a big move, he stood up, waved his hands, and the air flow around him moved with his arm, just like the arm stirred the water in the basin, the air flow around him rotated, turning faster and faster, the dead grass and fallen leaves and small stones were all swept into the air, and after a "pop" sound sounded again, it was the other party who came with a muffled snort, did he go back directly to the bullet? Zhao Pan didn't have time to think or watch, he could only run away desperately with Jiaye, he still prayed in his heart that Shikong could be done, otherwise if he hung up, the lives of their group of people would definitely not be saved.

After they ran down the mountain in embarrassment, it took some time to finally stop two taxis, and then ran all the way to Changzhou. About an hour later, the car stopped at the foot of a small hill, and after everyone got out of the car, they were just about to go up the mountain, when Kaye suddenly made a gesture to ask everyone to stop, and he suddenly turned his head and asked the man on the side, "Yes, has anyone been captured?"

"Only twelve of the eighteen Arhats escaped, and six more were lost on the mountain just now—" Ye Zhi said with a bitter expression.

"Are the six dead or alive?" Kaye continued. But Ye Zhi just shook his head and said he didn't know.

"Suffer!" said Ka Ye in shock.

"Jiaye, don't you mean that if they are captured, they may be forced to tell the location here?" Zhao Pan was also shocked.

"That's right, only people above the Arhat know the location of the nearby temple, but they don't just know the location of the temple here, but the entire southern Jiangsu region. If they were really captured, they would have had time to attack other temples in the second half of the night, and the consequences would be unimaginable. Let's wait where we are for a while and take a look at it first. Kaye said in alarm.

What they feared really happened: in the silence of the night, there was a sudden rush of chaotic shouts and laughter halfway up the mountain, and sporadic gunfire with mufflers. "Let's go!" Kaye led the crowd to run without thinking.

"Kasya, where are we going?" asked Yashi as he ran.

"I can only retreat to the north of the Yangtze River, and the temples around Taihu Lake may all fall overnight. The temple in Jiangbei, except for the master, only I know the location, it should be safe. Kaye said helplessly.

"I can't believe these villains are so insidious and vicious. Zhao Pan scolded angrily, and after running for a while, he said: "But no matter what, it has something to do with me, I am a sinner." ”

"No, you are just being used, the real sinner is that Zhang Dongjie. I'm going to tear him to pieces!" said Kaya, gritting his teeth. In the night, a group of them ran to the side of the road in a panic, and finally got two taxis, and the driver was willing to drive a long distance only after giving several times the price. But it's understandable, it's the middle of the night, who wants to drive you so far, and when you come back, it's dawn.

At noon the next day, in the secret room of the Nanquan branch of Wudou Midao, the high-level officials drank a celebration banquet together.

"Zhang Duo's master is clever, this battle is too beautiful, under the dispatch of my Nanquan rudder, the Siddhartha Dharma Gate in the Shanghai area of southern Jiangsu has been completely eradicated overnight, presumably the abbot of that bird has to cry and faint in the toilet, hahaha!" said a small head with a laugh.

"I guess there are those who are crying and fainting in the toilet, and what will they feel when they find that all the bodies have suddenly disappeared without a trace for no reason?"

"Hey, where is it, isn't it thanks to the smoke screen of the Shui Luo Dao Chief, and the efforts of the brothers? I think at least half of the credit is due to the Shui Luo Dao Chief. Come, I'll salute a long drink. Zhang Dongjie said proudly.

"Master Zhang Helm is too modest, and the old man is just a handy, and the whole strategy is still Lord Zhang Helm, you are still in charge. Master Zhang, the old man will give you another cup, and he will be promoted in the future, but don't forget the old man. Shui Luo said with a smile on his face.

"Master Zhang, Lord Qiu Yuan is here. A little minion ran in and said loudly.

"Oh, please!" Zhang Dongjie said in surprise.

"Congratulations to Master Zhang Duo, Qiu Yuan came in person, it must be the sect leader who has a great reward!" Shui Luo said with envy on his face, and the others also cast envious eyes.

After a while, Qiu Yuan's shrill and ugly voice came from outside the door: "Oh, Master Zhang, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I have done such a vigorous and great cause." The old slave has come to say hello to you. Qiu Yuan smiled all over his face, and the old face smiled like a flower, and hurriedly made a big gift after coming in.

"Hey~ How can Lord Qiu make such a big gift?" Zhang Dongjie hurriedly walked over and helped him up.

Qiu Yuan smiled: "Is it still wrong for the old slave to salute the founding viscount?"

"Ah, what are you ——?," Zhang Dongjie exclaimed.

Qiu Yuan smiled and took out the "holy decree" of the sect leader and read: "Zhang Dongjie has made meritorious contributions to pacifying Siddhartha in southern Jiangsu, and has been specially promoted to the founding viscount of the country, and has been awarded the title of Nanyuan County of Xianzhou, and has been promoted to the chief helmsman of southern Jiangsu, in charge of the operation of each rudder of the Wudou Midao in southern Jiangsu. After reading the "Holy Decree", Qiu Yuan looked like a sycophant on his face, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations, this is a five-level promotion!"

"Congratulations to the chief helmsman, I have come down to meet the Founding Viscount!" The rest of the people in the audience, including Shui Luo, knelt down to salute Zhang Dongjie.

"Get up, everyone is brothers, there is no need to be so polite. By the way, Lord Qiu Yuan, do the brothers have a reward?" asked Zhang Dongjie. It seems that this Zhang Dongjie is not only more vicious, but even his feelings are much more sophisticated, and it is definitely not enough to just seal himself, and he has to find a way to let his subordinates follow the promotion and make a fortune together, so that everyone is willing to work for themselves.

"Master Zhang, call Qiu Yuan in the future, I can't afford the word adult. Don't be busy, everyone's reward. Your reward is not over yet, please look at this!" Qiu Yuan hurriedly asked the person behind him to bring a small wooden box, and when the wooden box was opened, there was a ball the size of a quail egg that shone red.

"What is this?" Zhang Dongjie asked curiously.

"Congratulations to the Chief Helmsman, this is the Supreme Pill of this sect's secret tradition, eating it can not only strengthen the body and prolong life, but also improve your skill dozens of times, your cultivation will be close to the top of my sect overnight." The old slave has only been seen twice for so many years, and you are the first one to be rewarded. It can be seen from this that the sect leader favors You Jia! This pill, let alone eating it, even if you smell it, you can get rid of all kinds of diseases and be refreshed for several days. Qiu Yuan said, with a fascinated expression on his face, it seems that this thing is indeed very rare. Shui Luo and the others were also envious when they heard this, and only sighed that they were not so lucky.

"Thank you for the gift of the sect master, Qiu Yuan, please convey my thanks to the sect master. Zhang Dongjie happily took the pill and said.

"That's certain, in the future, the old slave still needs the Viscount to say a lot of good words in front of the sect master. Qiu Yuan said with a treacherous face. He took out another "decree" and read it, and the rest of the people knelt down and listened happily to their respective rewards.

"Lord Viscount, can you take a step to speak?" Qiu Yuan asked after reading the "Holy Decree".

"Oh, of course. Zhang Dongjie led Qiu Yuan to a hidden room inside. Qiu Yuan put his mouth in Zhang Dongjie's ear and said for a while, then took out a very small black bottle and stuffed it for Zhang Dongjie. Zhang Dongjie was shocked when he heard this: "Is this really the case?" Qiu Yuan nodded with a smile.

"He Nai, he is my brother, what can I do about this? Alas, if I do this, how can my conscience be at ease?" Zhang Dongjie said with a sad face.

"Lord Viscount, please focus on the overall situation, this matter is extremely confidential and important, please think twice. The sect leader said, if this matter is done, it will not be a problem to be promoted to the third level. Qiu Yuan said.

When Zhang Dongjie heard this, he deliberately walked around the room, thought about it for a while, and pretended to sigh: "It's rare for the sect leader to be so important, even if it is to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, I, Zhang Dongjie, will not hesitate to do it." Alas, it's hard to calm down, but for the sake of the sect leader and the development of the sect, it seems that I have to endure the pain of cutting my love. ”

Why did Zhang Dongjie put on such a show? Because the sect leader knew that He Nai was his brother, and that things that were unfavorable to his brother were to be heard, and if he had agreed to it as soon as he heard about it, and it reached the ears of the sect leader, wouldn't he, Zhang Dongjie, be a person who betrayed his brother out of sight of profit? Then how dare the sect leader reuse himself in the future? However, if he was under the coercion and temptation of the sect leader, and the combination of grace and power, and had no choice but to attack his brother, then his character would have been remarkable.

Today, the purpose of the Taoist leader of Wudou Mi to pull Zhang Dongjie into the religion has finally been revealed - in order to obtain He Nai. As for Zhang Dongjie's personal ability, it can only be regarded as an unexpected gain.

"Okay! It's still the Viscount who understands the general situation and takes the overall situation into account, and the old slave admires it very much. The old slave is going to report to the sect master, I don't know what else the viscount wants?" Qiu Yuan asked.

"No, let me think about it and plan it. Zhang Dongjie waved his hand and said.
