In the Sanyang Patriarch's Hall, forty-two Golden Immortals stood in the hall, while the remaining nearly a hundred Taiyi Xuanxian gathered outside the hall.
The three great patriarchs, Master Yin Yang, Master You Yang, and Master Qin Yang, were sitting high on the throne. Master Yin Yang looked at the forty-two golden immortals below and said, "I have just sorted out the secrets of Dongsheng Shenzhou and saw them. It’s chaos, it must be someone with great power blocking the secret of heaven.”
Master Yin Yang said: "We looked at the stars in the sky again, but we saw that the stars were dim and the starlight was unclear. It should be that the heaven has started to move."
Hearing Master Yin Yang's words, the hearts of the golden immortals present tightened, but immediately they worshiped in unison: "Please give me instructions, Patriarch."
Master Yin Yang issued eighteen talisman edicts, and then said: "Yuan Wuwo, Qian Yuan, Kun Yuan, Lian Shang, Wu Xian, and Dai Wu Jiu, the five of you are stationed at the main altar of Luhu Mountain, and you will be attentive at any time. Order, support everywhere."
Upon hearing this, the six people immediately came forward and worshiped: "Disciple, I obey the law."
Master Yin Yang then divided the remaining thirty-six golden immortals into eighteen groups, with two people in each group. After giving the talisman edict, he ordered them to go to the Eighteen-Heaven Mopan Formation to guard.
The Eighteen Heavens Mopan Formation is a formation given by Master Yin Yang from the Great Pharaoh Demon. It is a kind of magic formation, and its real name is the 'Eighteen Heavens Demon Formation'.
However, in order not to arouse the suspicion of his disciples, Master Yin Yang changed it to the Eighteen-Heaven Mopan Formation.
In the past few dozen days, Zhenyang Dao Palace has built a huge eighteen-day millstone array around the entire Luhu Mountain to defend the outer perimeter of Luhu Mountain.
At the same time, there is a large formation on Luhu Mountain, which is personally presided over by Master Yin Yang for internal defense.
"The Eighteen-day Mopan Formation has a total of eighteen formations. Each formation is presided over by two golden immortals, one to attack and one to defend. In addition, ten Taiyi Xuanxian, fifty Xuanxian, and three hundred The name of the True Immortal dominates the formation and delivers mana to the formation at all times."
Master Yin Yang gave the talisman to the eighteen groups of golden immortals who presided over the eighteen-day millstone formation, and then said: "You will quickly go and order all the people, bring the elixirs and treasures, and immediately go to the eyes of their respective formations to activate the formation. "
"Follow the decree!" After the thirty-six golden immortals received the talisman, they immediately turned around and left the Sanyang Patriarch's Hall.
After leaving the Sanyang Patriarch's Hall, everyone held Master Yin Yang's talisman and summoned Taiyi Xuanxian, Xuanxian, and Zhenxian disciples. Then, after gathering the required manpower, they headed towards the mountains and rivers where the formation eye was located without stopping. The place of the river.
Then Master Yin Yang said to the remaining six golden immortals: "You will go to the six halls to control the formation talismans. After starting the eighteen-day millstone formation, I will activate the mountain protection formation on Luhu Mountain. The six main formation eyes are the six main halls. When the main formation opens,
After it is activated, the talismans of the mountain-protecting formation will appear in the six halls, and they will be in charge of you. This is the mental method for controlling the talisman. "
After saying that, Master Yin Yang sent the mental spell into the minds of the six people with a flick of his finger.
After the six people sensed the inner mantra in their minds, they immediately bowed and accepted the order: "Disciples, please obey the instructions of the ancestor."
"Go." Master Yin Yang waved his sleeves and said.
After the six people left, Master Yin Yang said to Master Youyang and Master Qinyang: "Two fellow Taoists, please go to the center of the Eighteen Heavenly Demon Array. The Eighteen Heavenly Demon Array is the defense of Mount Luhu. The periphery is related to whether my Zhenyang Dao Palace can persist
Ten days later, it was not safe to send only thirty-six Golden Immortals, and two fellow Taoists were needed to suppress the formation. As long as we can persist for ten more days, when the forty-nine days are up, that will be the day when we are done. "
When Master Youyang and Master Qinyang heard this, they immediately stood up and said, "Please rest assured, fellow Taoist Yin Yang, we will do our best."
Then there was a flash of magic light around the two of them, and they slowly disappeared into the Patriarch Sanyang Hall.
After everyone left, Master Yin Yang narrowed his eyes, then raised his sleeves, and saw a purple-black demonic aura rising from under the throne, gradually covering Master Yin Yang.
...
"Your Majesty! Five days ago, a mob suddenly appeared in Huacheng County. They captured Huacheng and killed the prefect of Huacheng. In the entire Huacheng County, only Weichai County has not yet fallen into the hands of thieves, but the thieves have now Weichai County is under siege. This emergency report is
The magistrate of Weichai County sent someone to sneak out of the city overnight to send it back. "In the Great Zhou Kingdom, in the Qinzheng Hall of the Imperial Palace, the Prime Minister is reporting to the Emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom the urgent report he has just received.
Chen Yan heard this and immediately asked: "Where are Huacheng Tongshou, Jun Cheng and others?"
The prime minister reported: "It is said that the guards of Huacheng and the rebel army cooperated inside and outside to open the gate of Huacheng, so that the rebel army captured Huacheng without any effort."
"Traitor!" Chen Yan cursed angrily in a cold tone, and then called out: "Where is the captain of the Western Military Academy?"
I saw a tall and majestic man wearing armor stepping out, clasping his fists and saying, "I'm here."
Chen Yandao: "I order you to lead the 30,000-strong Western Army camp and go to Huacheng County to first relieve the siege of Weichai County and then conquer the bandit army."
"I obey the order." The captain of the Western Military Academy responded and bowed.
Just when the captain of the Western Military Academy was about to leave, Chen Yan suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute."
The captain of the Western Military Academy turned around and bowed: "Your Majesty."
Chen Yan said with a gloomy look: "These mob rebels must be eradicated. They are like a plague. The mobs will swarm wherever they go, so they must not rush out of Huacheng County! It is better to kill the wrong ones than let them go. ! Even if you fix it
He would not hesitate to kill all the people in Huacheng County. "
The captain of the Western Military Academy was slightly startled, then bowed and said: "I understand."
As the captain of the Western Military Academy left, the hall suddenly fell into silence. At this time, the prime minister said again: "Your Majesty, there are refugees all over the country who are unwilling to receive porridge from Zhenyang Palace. They are running around, stealing and looting, and have no fixed residence. So, if someone instigates an incident...this is a hidden danger."
When Chen Yan heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of the prime minister's words. These refugees were unwilling to accept the porridge from Zhenyang Palace, which meant they did not believe in Zhenyang Palace. You can imagine what the attitude is.
Chen Yan asked in reply: "What does the prime minister mean?"
The prime minister was stunned when he heard this, and then he raised his hands and said: "I haven't thought of a countermeasure yet, but I am willing to listen to your majesty's instructions."
Chen Yan frowned, glanced at the prime minister, then turned to the side and said, "Tingwei, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
The Prime Minister secretly glanced at the Tingwei in the courtroom, only to see him smile faintly, and then walked out of the courtroom and said: "Your Majesty, a few mobs are nothing to worry about. I have a plan that can eliminate the danger of the refugees in an instant. "
Chen Yan's eyes lit up and he said, "Come quickly."
Just listen to Tingwei say: "For these refugees, just wipe them out together."
The prime minister heard the words and smiled and said: "It's easy for Ting Wei to say it. Now the general is leading troops to wipe out the rebels everywhere, and the Western Military Academy captain is going to wipe out the rebels in Huacheng County. The remaining troops have to defend the capital. Where can we send troops?" ? Besides, those refugees are everywhere
It is extremely difficult to encircle and suppress them when they are on the run. Sending troops to suppress them is just a waste of money and food. "
Chen Yan frowned when he heard the prime minister's words and looked at Wei Ting with doubts.
The Tingwei laughed and said, "What the prime minister said makes sense, but my strategy is not to send troops to conquer, but..."
"But what?" Chen Yan asked.
The Tingwei bowed and said, "I would like to ask your Majesty to issue an edict to educate the world about the harm caused by refugees, and to order the powerful local gentry from all over the world to send people to suppress and arrest them. He also announced that the refugees are stateless, and the powerful local gentry from all over the country can deal with them on their own."
The prime minister couldn't help but feel chilled when he heard this suggestion. This policy was not without its evil deeds, declaring the refugees stateless, and the court allowed the powerful local gentry from all over the country to send people to suppress and arrest them. In this way, those powerful local gentry could not act openly and honestly. catch slaves
Already? Are those refugees troublemakers? No, slaves, free labor.
And this strategy is also extremely effective. Which place does not have powerful landlords? No earth emperor? As long as these people start to move, isn't it easier than the imperial court sending troops to suppress them?
But, it’s so vicious! The prime minister kept shaking his head in his heart.
But Chen Yan thought this method was very good, and immediately said: "Zhun, prime minister, prepare an edict and issue it to the world. The Tingwei should be rewarded for this wonderful idea."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." With a smile on his face, Ting Wei immediately bowed and thanked him, and then retreated.
One day later, edicts were issued one after another from the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty and quickly spread throughout the country.
