Jingjue Temple received a letter.

It was not a letter from the Duke of the Kingdom who asked Concubine Hu to pay homage to Zenzi, because he did not dare.

His Majesty the Emperor has not met the imperial concubine recently, which has been a long time since he thought about what this means.

The letter is much bigger, and no one dares to delay at all, so it is delivered directly to the Chief of the Lu Tang.

Chief Lietang hurriedly walked through the peach forest and came to the deepest part of the temple.

A young monk was kneeling on the low couch in front of the window, staring at the pile of fine wooden sticks in front of him, looking very focused.

Chief Lu Tang knew that this was Zenzi’s favorite game to pick wooden sticks, and the entire Guocheng Temple had long been used to it.

He knew that Zenzi didn't like being disturbed the most, but he still coughed twice and walked in.

Zenzi sighed helplessly and asked, "What's the matter?"

Chief Lu Tang handed over the letter in his hand.

Zenzi raised his eyebrows slightly, took out the letter paper, and quickly finished reading the contents of the letter.

This letter is a letter from the Knife Saint.

The chief of the Lu Tang asked worriedly: "What's the matter with Brother Cao's letter?"

Zenzi said, "He asked someone."

Chief Lieutenant asked: "Who is it?"

Zenzi smiled and said, "He asked Jing Jiu if he was the descendant of the temple's Hongchen."

Listening to this problem, Chief Lu Tang relaxed a little.

As the status of the Sword Saint, he should not have been interested in these rumors, but when he thinks of his former identity, he can understand why he made a special letter to ask.

In fact, Chief Lu Tang was also very interested in this matter.

A few years ago, he was a little puzzled at the Qingshan Sect’s Sword Conference on behalf of Guocheng Temple. Why did Zenzi attach so much importance to the entry ceremony of this ordinary disciple?

Later, a lot of discussions arose about Jing Jiu's origin, and he couldn't help but wonder if it was related to this?

The identity of the descendant of Guocheng Temple, the Hongchen, has always been extremely secretive. No one knows about the abbot and the Zen son, and he can only guess.

"I'll reply, is there anything else?"

Zenzi still did not give a clear answer.

Chief Lu Tang looked at the thin piece of letter paper in his hand and said, "This Taoist battle is in Wansongxue Mountains north of the Mo Sea. It is very far away from the Zhenbei Army and Senior Brother Cao. If something happens, it may not be enough to rescue it. Although it is meant to test their potential between life and death,... should I take care of it secretly?"

His words have no clear object, but it is obvious that it is someone mentioned in the letter.

Zenzi thought for a while and said, "My old friend has been cautious all his life. Jing Jiu inherits his legacy and thinks there will be no problem."

...

...

The Taoist war was held in the far north, and the various sects participating in the Meihui Association remained in Chaoge City. The Xishan residence was still full of people, and it was even more lively than before, because many practitioners did not stay in their yard to meditate and practice like they did on weekdays, but came to the cliff square outside.

Practitioners do not go out for a walk or socialize when they are bored, but look at paintings.

There is a formation in Xishanju, which will not rain heavily, but there is a very long rain corridor in the courtyard. The side of the mountain is renovated very smoothly, with dozens of paintings painted on it.

The paintings reach the ground from the top of the gallery, about a meter high and two feet wide, painted two or three birds with gold powder, and the plum branches are winding and twisting between them, and the red plum blossoms bloom.

Most practitioners' eyes fall on a painting in the middle.

The plum blossoms in the painting are in great bloom, with more than a dozen flowers already bearing their flowers. The flowers are very large and the colors are extremely bright, like blood, and have a shocking beauty.

No matter how you look at it, this painting should have been half completed.

The plum branches stretched downwards, and the ink traces gradually became deeper and turned into words, which turned out to be names.

"Luo Huainan is really too strong."

Someone sighed and said, "Although he was in seclusion, he was the only one who was enough to make the Zhongzhou School stand out."

There are five names below this painting.

Luo Huainan's name is in between.

Each name extends a cold branch, and plum blossoms are formed on the branches.

The five cold branches are entangled and superimposed, and it looks like plum blossoms are in full bloom, and it is impossible to tell which branch they are on.

If you look carefully, you will find that most of the plum blossoms are from the plum branch in Luohuainan.

There were only one or two flowers on the branches of the rest of the people.

There are many other paintings under the rain corridor, and the contents of the paintings are basically the same, except that the number and size of the plum blossoms are different.

This is the list of Meihui Dao Zhan.

That is the legendary: trampling on blood to find plum blossoms.

...

...

Young practitioners participating in the Meihui Dao Battle will draw lots in advance according to their respective combat styles and skills, and each group is basically five people.

Every time a snow country monster is killed, a blood plum blossom will be added to the painting. At the same time, according to the strength of the snow country monster, the plum blossoms are divided into three different sizes.

Which group will win first, and it has nothing to do with the competition between sects.

The senior practitioners of those days made such a design, so they did not want each sect to do their own things and conflict in Taoist wars, and stayed away from the intention of uniting the righteous practitioners to fight against foreign enemies. But the sect is there, who would not care about their respective achievements? Those who have their own good deeds will calculate their achievements according to the sect.

In this Taoist battle, Luo Huainan's performance was as strong as ever. The other disciples of Zhongzhou Sect, such as Xiang Wanshu and others, performed very well, and their current record was far superior to other sects. Tonglu of Xihai Sword Sect is worthy of being the second-ranked contestant by the roller blinds. There are also many plum blossoms on his plum branches, and the number is not even below Luo Huainan. However, the plum blossoms are of different sizes, which looks a little awkward. Other disciples such as Yi Maozhai and Kunlun, and Baotong Zen Temple also performed as excellent as in previous years.

Some of the surprises are Aoyama Sect.

...

...

Zuo Yuzawa's Zuo Yuzeng walked past the corridor, with a worried look on his face, thinking that this time the Aoyama Sect would be in trouble.

The plum blossoms are divided into five items: piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Except for Nan Wang back then and Jing Jiu this year, Qingshan disciples rarely participate in the first four items.

But in the last Taoist battle, Qingshan Sect has always been the strongest. In recent Meihui, Luo Huainan won the first place in Taoist battles in succession, and Qingshan disciples have also won many excellent rankings, especially when counting by sect, Qingshan disciples have never let the first place be lost.

Compared with previous years, Qingshan Sect's performance this year was too average, and it could even be said to be extremely bad. The reason for this situation is that in previous years, Qingshan Sect often used Liangwang Peak disciples as the main force in the battle against Taoist wars, but this year due to various situations, Liangwang Peak disciples came very few.

Especially like crossing Nanshan, Jian Ruyun and Gu Han, the top three strong men in the two Wangfeng Peaks, did not appear.

According to the current situation, let alone fighting with the Zhongzhou Sect, even the Yimaozhai, Xihai Sword Sect and even Kunlun may leave Qingshan Sect far behind.

This is really a shameful thing.

Many practitioners are talking about this.

"Where is that Jing Jiu? Isn't it said that he is very powerful? I have heard that the killing gods of the two forget peaks in Nanshan did not come because of his reasons."

"It's just a fierce blow. With his time and realm of practicing Taoism, can he be better than Qingshan's first disciple?"

"Even if there is any hidden truth, his performance is too bad, right?"

The Taoist war has begun for more than ten days.

After the initial tension and discomfort, the young genius disciples from the sect began to show their sharpness.

There are more and more blood plums on those paintings. Even the worst ones will have two or three small plum blossoms, although it looks a bit shabby.

There was a painting at the end but it was still blank, with only a few branches, which was very pitiful.
