Chapter 138 Confrontation
After receiving the gift from heaven and earth, everyone was refreshed. This benefit was much more than what was recorded in the palace, and there would be additional benefits from heaven in the future.
The gains from this battle alone pushed the three people's cultivation forward a lot, saving several years of hard training or training.
Although Wei Yuan did not receive direct benefits, the temperature and nourishment of Qingming increased, Jiamu Shengxuanxiao increased, Wanli Rivers and Mountains received feedback, and the buds on the top of Yushan Mountain grew a little taller, as if a second leaf was gestating.
.
At this time, Wei Yuan deeply felt that the number of ordinary monk troops was insufficient. At the beginning of the development, there were 700 monks. However, in less than three days, only a hundred or so monks were left. Thinking of this, Wei Yuan thought of Xu Wenwu
, and then I discovered that this guy had gone somewhere.
At this moment, Xu Wenwu was still writing furiously in the hut. The hut was a world of its own, completely unaware that a war had been fought outside and a great witch had died.
In the west of Ningzhou, a flying boat was flying slowly with the Taichu Palace mark on it. However, several monks suddenly appeared in front and stopped the flying boat.
A middle-aged monk came to the deck, cupped his hands and said: "This is the Taichu Palace Flying Boat. Several fellow Taoists are blocking the way. I don't know why?"
An old cultivator on the opposite side raised his hands and said: "We are coming from the Qinjian Gate. I came here to tell my fellow Taoists that the front door is our sect's mountain gate. It is now closed. Please take a detour or go back directly."
The middle-aged monk frowned and said: "I fly this route once a month, how come I have never heard of the mountain gate being closed? I have an urgent mission, please get out of the way as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will go back and report to the top, you
I’m afraid Xiaoqinjianmen can’t afford it!”
"Okay! Since Taichu Palace behaves in such a domineering manner, we will not meddle in other people's business." Several monks blocking the road exchanged cryptic glances with each other and moved out of the way.
The flying boat continued to move forward, but the middle-aged monk became more and more uneasy. Suddenly, two flying boats rushed out of the sea of clouds above. There was no sign at all, and they headed straight for the Taichu Palace flying boat!
The middle-aged monk was startled and immediately sounded the alarm.
The two flying boats that appeared later were extremely fast and quickly caught up with the Taichu Palace flying boat, and then a crossbow arrow weapon was fired at them.
The Taichu Palace flying boat fought back desperately, but it was a cargo flying boat. It was not fast, and it was not as prepared as its opponent. In an instant, it was at a disadvantage, and then the enemy flying boat approached and was firmly bound.
The middle-aged monk had no choice but to surrender.
A moment later, the three flying boats flew away. The middle-aged monk and dozens of other people were tightly tied up, their power of consciousness was sealed, and they were thrown into the wilderness.
The middle-aged monk was ashamed and annoyed. His trip was originally to deliver supplies to various Taichu Palace industries in Ningxi, but before departure, he temporarily received a batch of supplies. He was originally going to send them to a stronghold in Hanyang Guanxi, but instead
I didn't expect such an accident to happen on the road.
Fortunately, the people who hijacked the flying boat had no intention of killing anyone, so they were able to save a life.
Hanyang Pass.
At this time, there were many more guards closing the gate than usual. Many people gathered at the west-facing city gate, forming a long queue. The city gate guards questioned everyone who left the city carefully, and most caravans were not allowed to go out to the west of the city. OK, I have to go back the same way.
In the Hanyangguan garrison, a broad-shouldered general was sitting in the middle, with a row of generals sitting on the right. Among them, the leader was majestic and murderous, and he was obviously a high-level practitioner of Dharma.
There were only two Taoists sitting on the left, one male and one female, none other than Master Fenhai and Master Lanhua.
The general on the right slapped the table hard and said angrily: "You two are so entangled, but you don't take my garrison in your eyes?"
Master Fenhai didn't even raise his eyelids and said calmly: "It's true that I don't take it seriously, what's wrong?"
The general was furious, stood up, and shouted: "Don't think how powerful your Taoism is, even if you are powerful, I, the general, will not be afraid!"
Master Lan Hua muttered: "I don't care if you are afraid or not, you can't beat me anyway."
The general's face was ashen and he said: "I was just careless for a moment!" "If you are not careless, you will still lose. If you fight a few more times, you will lose. If you don't want to lose face, then I can give you some pointers on behalf of Master. hand."
At this time, the general in the middle finally raised his eyelids, and his eyes suddenly overflowed with light, like a long sword or an axe!
He stared at Master Lanhua before calming down and said: "You two have been arguing here for more than a day. The governor has long said that bulk goods are not allowed to leave the pass and go westward. This order cannot be changed. Why do you bother? endlessly?"
Fen Hai said: "The old Taoist feels that this order is inappropriate, so we need to understand it through theory. Admiral Xu has a good reputation. The old Taoist will probably not win against you, but it is difficult to lose. So we might as well continue to theorize here until we come to a conclusion. until."
Admiral Xu's face was gloomy and he said slowly: "It won't be too late for us to discuss the situation after the two adults in the sky have the results, right? There is really no point in taking action now."
Fen Hai nodded: "The old Taoist feels the same way, so it's better not to do anything if you can. Isn't it good for us to argue every day like this? If Admiral Xu insists on weighing the old Taoist's weight, then the old Taoist will do the same. You can accompany me."
Admiral Xu felt a severe headache.
The two sides have been in a stalemate for two days. The day before, Fen Hailanhua wanted to leave the pass and head west, but was stopped by the guards guarding the pass. The two went to the Admiral's Mansion and injured dozens of city gate guards.
Xu Zhongxing, the admiral of Hanyang Pass, achieved Dharma status two hundred years ago. He also led troops to fight against the Wu clan all the year round. His cultivation and combat prowess are all first-rate. Compared to Fen Hai, he is slightly inferior. He knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. There is something strange. Faxiang Zhenren is going west, but he can still be stopped by the guards?
Naturally, the two sides didn't agree on anything when they met, so they secretly competed in the distance.
Xu Zhongxing was slightly better, but he was not sure of victory. The fire that day when the old Taoist monk Fen Hai was practicing was very sinister and could erode his Taoist power. If he fought with him for a long time, his Taoist power would be permanently damaged. Although it was not much, it was extremely annoying.
Therefore, after testing the situation, Xu Zhongxing did not want to take action against Fen Hai again unless it was absolutely necessary.
When Fen Hai saw that he could not defeat Xu Zhongxing, he also changed his strategy and sat down with Xu Zhongxing to argue. The general sitting on the left was named Fan Donghe. He had just become a Dharma minister less than fifty years ago, but he was not Lan Hua.
opponent.
Both sides had two Dharma ministers each, so it became a deadlock. On the first day, the two sides argued and argued until the end. During this period, they fought twice more, and it was difficult to tell the winner.
As a result, the chickens didn't crow today. Xu Zhongxing, Fan Dong and Fan Dong had just slept in bed when Fen Hailanhua came to the door again. As long as Xu Zhongxing didn't come forward, these two old men were very arrogant and domineering. If the soldiers in the garrison were not satisfied with the response, they would
More than ten people were injured.
Fan Donghe arrived first, and without even saying a few words, Fenhai accused him of several charges out of thin air and started taking action. Master Lanhua stood aside and only pulled Fan Donghe.
If Xu Zhongxing hadn't arrived in time, Fan Donghe would have been seriously injured.
At this point, Xu Zhongxing finally understood that Fen Hailanhua was here to cause trouble, so he had to suppress the situation personally. So the two sides started arguing all the way before the chickens got up, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost dusk. For the whole day, Xu Zhongnian didn't have a single official document.
Can handle it.
When these two people sat like this in the Admiral's Mansion, the entire Admiral's Mansion was paralyzed. In the blink of an eye, Xu Zhongnian's desk was piled high with official documents, and he couldn't read any of them. As long as he took the official documents, Fen Hai would
A hands-on contest of strength.
How can an ordinary official document stand up to the competition between two real people? It will be reduced to ashes.
The Admiral's Mansion was paralyzed, the mobilization of troops and horses nearly a thousand miles away from Hanyang Pass was stalled, and the processing of various affairs was slowed down by several beats. The Xu family originally ran this place like an iron barrel, but many loopholes appeared as a result.
Xu Zhongxing was at his wits' end at this time. If he asked Fan Donghe to leave and handle official duties on his behalf, Fen Hailanhua would definitely take the opportunity to attack him, and he might miss and be seriously injured. If he wanted to drive away the two of them, he would at least have to
There is another Dharma minister, but the Xu family is currently short of manpower. All Dharma ministers have important responsibilities, and no one can get away for a while.
Xu Zhongnian thought about it, and the only way was to find someone to replace him and compete with these two veterans. But now that there is no suitable candidate, he can only endure it forcefully, and secretly think: Let's see how long you can be arrogant!
He just wanted to be ruthless, but Xu Zhongnian knew that he was the one who couldn't afford it. The two of them were idle, and to put it mildly, they had no business all day long. However, he was in charge of the border military affairs, and he had to coordinate the entire border with the Broken Realm.
Block and intercept.
He has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, how can he waste time with two idle people every day? But Fen Hai is not taking it easy. If it weren't for Xu Zhongnian, a high-level cultivator who has reached the advanced stage of cultivation and is also powerful in fighting skills, how many people can suppress him? Xu Zhongnian thought for a whole time
For two days, I couldn't think of a good way to deal with it.
Chapter completed!
