Chapter 273: Penglai
Ye Hao and Shi Daluan's hearts fluttered when they heard this, and they hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, Uncle Shi." ”
Chu Mad nodded, and said slowly: "Well, Uncle Shi is too arrogant in this life, and he never bows his head, resulting in a lot of hardships in his life, and there are many ups and downs, until now he can break the road of life, but it is not so easy to change when you are old, I don't want you to take a detour, no matter how you go to the immortal road in the future, you need to be down-to-earth, step by step, don't be a dragonfly, rush for quick success, nothing is an overnight effort, gather sand into a tower to make a difference...... Remember my words, immortal cultivators are not only cultivating the Dao Law, but also the mind, and only the low immortal skull can raise the nine heavens...... The way of heaven is vast and endless, and it needs to have Lingyunzhi and the roots under your feet!"
Ye Hao and Shi Daluan's hearts fluttered when they heard this, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "Disciple, remember the teachings of my uncle. ”
"Alright, you guys go. After Chu Mad finished saying this, he turned around again and stared at the vast earth, his back looked so lonely and desolate in the cold wind.
Ye Hao and Shi Da turned around and went down the city tower, and both of them were thoughtful along the way.
Ten miles away from Qingluan City, the Demon Sect army was on standby.
Above the hundred-zhang giant beast, a chill emanated from under the flame mask on Tiansha's face, and the terrifying surrounding demon cultivators were silent, not daring to pant loudly, everyone could see that the Tiansha Sect Master was in an extremely unhappy mood at the moment, and no one wanted to touch his head at this moment.
After pondering for a long time, Tiansha suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Tan Qianshan!"
Tan Qianshan, the hall master of the Fire Eye Hall, who was standing not far away, heard that his body was shocked, and his face instantly became panicked, and he responded: "My subordinates are here." Then he swept the back of the hundred-zhang giant beast and bowed down in front of the heavenly evil.
"Tan Qianshan, you and Bu Liusheng have been in the Western Territory for a long time, and they have been exploring the strength of the various sects in the Western Soil for nearly three years, but they have never said that there are 100,000 disciples under the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect! What the hell is going on?"
Tiansha's tone of voice was extremely gentle, but it was like thunder in Tan Qianshan's ears, and he couldn't help but tremble, his body was like a sifting chaff: "Teach...... Sect Master, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect has always been mysterious, and few disciples go out of the mountain, but even so, the subordinates have personally gone to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect to investigate, and according to the materials they buy on weekdays, there are only 10,000 disciples at most!"
"Hmph, at most 10,000 disciples, how could there be a sudden tenfold increase today!" said Tiansha sharply.
Tan Qianshan's face suddenly broke out in sweat. Heartbeat: "This...... This subordinate really can't figure it out......"
"Huh?" Tiansha lowered his head, his pupils shrunk, and a cold and terrifying aura enveloped all directions.
Tan Qianshan's face suddenly turned pale and sweated, and this cold aura emanated from it, which was the prelude to the sect leader's desire to kill.
His eyes rolled, his mind was spinning, and suddenly he thought of something, and immediately shouted, "Teach ...... Master. This matter is true, Hall Master Cui also went with his subordinates, if the sect leader does not believe it, he can ask Hall Master Cui. ”
Cui Xinhan, the hall master of the Fire Lotus Hall standing not far away, heard this. The angry beard trembled, and he scolded Tan Qianshan's ancestor for the eighth generation in his heart, and he wanted to slap him into meat paste with one palm, but how dare he make a mistake in front of the sect leader. Immediately floated on the hundred-zhang giant beast, and also knelt down in front of Tiansha.
"Sect Leader Qiqi, my subordinates have indeed explored the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect with Master Tan. Judging from the food and clothing they procured on weekdays, it is true that there are only about 10,000 disciples, but ......"
"But what?" said Tiansha coldly.
"However, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is a Buddhist sect, and the ethereal old bald donkey often travels all over the world, spreading teachings, and his followers are all over China, perhaps...... Maybe not all of these people are disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, but most of them are followers of Buddhism......" Cui Xinhan said cautiously.
When Tiansha heard this, he slapped the back armor of the giant beast and shouted angrily: "It's just nonsense!"
Cui Xin was cold, and Lingling shivered, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say more.
"Are you a three-year-old child when you are the leader of this sect? With my cultivation, I can't tell whether these people are disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect or disciples of the Buddhist Sect? These 100,000 people all have fluctuations in cultivation and are obviously from the same lineage, how can they be just ordinary believers who have been influenced by the teachings of ethereal monks! You use such childish words to prevaricate this sect? Hmph, if you two can't say another reason, this sect will immediately kill the two of you!"
Cui Xinhan heard this, his face was bloodless, and he wanted to cry at this moment, and he couldn't help shouting with a sad face: "The sect leader spares his life, the sect leader spares his life, his subordinates really don't know the reason......"
Tan Qianshan had already kowtowed like pounding garlic, his breath was short, his throat was dry, and he couldn't say a word of justification.
"Waste, all of it is waste, what's the use of this sect leaving you with such waste!" Tiansha was furious, raised his palm, and a scorching wave of fire suddenly appeared, about to slap at the two of them.
At this moment, a figure landed in front of Tiansha's body in the air, shouting, "Please ask the master's subordinates to be merciful!"
The person who suddenly appeared was shrouded in a black cloak, unable to see his true face, only two cold rays shot out from the cloak, making people feel chills.
Seeing that it was this person, Tiansha felt a little unhappy in his heart, and said coldly: "What, Deputy Sect Master, you want to stop me?"
When the cloaked man heard this, his heart was cold, and he immediately knelt down on one knee and said: "How dare the subordinates stop the sect master, but the subordinates think that this is the time to employ people, although the two of them are derelict in their duties, but after all, they are in the high position of the hall master, it is a pity to kill them like this, and it will have a great impact on the morale of the sect members, so the subordinates dare to ask the sect leader if they can temporarily exempt them from the death penalty and let them conquer Qingluan City to make up for their mistakes." ”
This person's voice was low and gloomy, fluctuating around him, making people sound extremely uncomfortable, Tiansha obviously didn't like this person, the brows under the mask were tightly furrowed, but this person's identity was special, and Tiansha's request for him could not be completely ignored.
It turned out that this person shrouded in a cloak was named Yu Wangyun, not only the deputy sect leader of the Lihuo Sect, but also the son of the previous generation of Tiansha, even if Tiansha didn't like this person very much from the bottom of his heart, but for the sake of the face of the previous generation of Tiansha, he had to be polite to him.
Tiansha snorted lightly, slowly withdrew his palm, the flame in his palm gradually dissipated, and said coldly: "Then according to what the Deputy Sect Master said." ”
Yu Wangyun breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "Thank you, Sect Master!"
Cui Xinhan and Tan Qianshan couldn't stop kowtowing, and shouted in their mouths: "Thank you for the grace of the sect leader not to kill, and my subordinates will conquer Qingluan City for the sect leader." ”
Tiansha pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Deputy Sect Master, what do you think of this matter?"
Yu Wangyun thought for a while and said, "Back to the sect leader, what do your subordinates think...... There must be a mystery in this matter. ”
"Oh, get up, and come and listen. ”
"Yes. Yu Wangyun slowly stood up and said contemplatively: "I have heard that the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is the first sect of Buddhism, which has been inherited for thousands of years, and my subordinates have heard my father say that the founder of this Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is a powerful person in the fairy world, if this rumor is true, then this great power must have left some high-level magic weapons before turning to the fairy world, maybe these magic weapons are all in the hands of the ethereal monk at the moment, and it should be easy for him to conjure up some monks with these magic weapons." ”
When Tiansha heard this, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly said: "That's reasonable! No wonder when we retreated, the ethereal spirit didn't even pursue, hmph, I almost fell for this bald donkey! Pass on my fatwa, and the whole army will be dispatched to capture Qingluan City for me!"
"Sect Master, slow down!" Yu Wangyun said: "What Fang Cai's subordinates say is all guesswork, just in case, we might as well test it first." ”
"Oh, how do you want to tempt?"
You Wangyun didn't answer directly, but turned to look at Feng Qingcang, the head of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, and said with a smile: "Then it depends on the beast control methods of the Feng Sect!"
Ye Hao and Shi Da went down the city tower and came to the vicinity of the city gate, but they saw countless Penglai Immortal Sect disciples kneeling in front of them, the two of them looked closely, and there was a person sitting in the middle of the crowd, who was the head of Penglai Immortal Sect they were looking for.
Yun Bugui's face was pale, and he said in a weak voice: "The Penglai Immortal Sect has been established for 7,300 years, and it is one of the oldest sects in Shenzhou, with more than 100,000 disciples at its peak...... Now that Shenzhou is in trouble, my Penglai Immortal Sect can't be left alone, as the Righteous Path Xuanzong, we should use all our strength to fight against the Demon Dao, even if all the fellow disciples present are killed in this battle, we can't let the Demon Sect step into the Penglai Immortal Sect! Are you willing to sacrifice this body with me and go to Huangquan together?"
"I'm willing!"
"The disciple is willing to die with the master!"
"Master, before we came here, we were determined to die generously!"
A smile appeared on Yun Bugui's old face, and he couldn't help nodding and said: "Okay, you are all good disciples of Penglai Immortal Sect, you promise me that after this battle, even if there is only one person left in the sect, this person will revitalize the sect and spread the Taoism of Penglai Immortal Sect forever!"
"Obey the Lord's Decree!"
The disciples of the Penglai Immortal Sect responded in unison, tears flashed in the corners of everyone's eyes, and everyone's faces were filled with extremely determined looks.
I don't know who it is, I first sang the song of Penglai Island in the West: "The fairy road is endless, and the strong man will not look back once he goes, even if this soul is scattered in all directions, he dreams of returning to Penglai and laughing together......"
This song is tragic and desolate, both the longing for his hometown, and the determination to die generously, in a moment, the disciples of Penglai Immortal Sect all sang along with the sound, and the song resounded over Qingluan City.
"Good man, the Taoist friends of Penglai Immortal Sect are all good men!" Shi Daluan's blood boiled when he listened, and he was moved, and stretched out his thumb to everyone.
Ye Hao was also moved by this singing voice and the ambition of the disciples of Penglai Immortal Sect, and couldn't help singing loudly with everyone, the tears in the corners of his eyes gradually wet his clothes, but he still didn't realize that at this moment, only by singing with everyone could he vent the indescribable complex feelings in his heart.
