The young man Wu on Mount Xumi was worried about the whereabouts of Goudan from Niutie Town.
Five thousand forbidden troops led by Li Xiuyuan and Nalan Yu have arrived at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain and set up camp.
In early spring, there was still ice and snow in the mountains that had not completely melted. Under Nalan Yu's arrangement, five thousand forbidden troops set up camp while blocking the way down the mountain from Qingcheng.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the place in front of him where the gentleman and the two mistresses once lived. The corners of his mouth moved, but he had no words to say.
Xiao Hei, who was standing on his shoulder, thought for a while and asked softly in his ear: "Brother, do you want to do it like we did outside Ding'an City?"
Although the mountain in front of him looked much higher than the Longshan Mountain outside the wild Ding'an City, Xiao Hei didn't care.
Li Xiuyuan sighed, turned around and walked towards the tent that Nalan Yu had just set up.
Therefore, I feel more and more that the sky and the wilderness are vast and indescribably vast.
If the elders and heads of Qingcheng were not obsessed with it, he would not mind going up the mountain to have a look, drink two cups of spiritual tea with the elders of Qingcheng, and talk about some of the issues left over after the Beihai War.
It's a pity that now the two sides can only become enemies.
What left him speechless was that a sect born in such a place would go to war with the center of power in the five regions for the sake of a dozen elders who interfered in the internal affairs of the dynasty.
At this moment, he only felt speechless.
He secretly muttered in his heart: "Do you think you are a bandit outside the wild city?" Those bandits were finally wiped out by Ximen Lone Star, Xiao Hei and others.
What's more, it is just one sect in the Five Domains, and there is no comparison between the two.
Seeing Li Xiuyuan walking into the tent, Nalan Yu frowned and said angrily: "These guys are so outrageous. Aren't they afraid of the wrath of the Imperial Master?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at him and smiled, and said: "Why don't you use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? Now that you are here, you don't have to worry about it anymore. You just need to prevent people from going up and down the mountain casually."
Nalan Yu thought for a while, looked at him and asked, "Are you going to lead the attack today? Or tomorrow?"
Thinking of running all the way, he was afraid that Li Xiuyuan would find the Imperial Army hard to walk and would have to rest for a while before taking action, so he couldn't help but ask.
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Do you think I'm about to fight?"
He reached out and hugged Xiao Hei on the table aside, and said: "It is better to attack the heart than to attack the city. Let's surround it for three days first and give some people a chance to choose."
Nalan Yu was stunned, looked at him and laughed: "If I had known there would be no battle to fight, I would have asked Jiang Shuai, who came back from southern Xinjiang, to accompany the national master here."
Xiao Hei looked at him with disgust, and said to Li Xiuyuan: "Brother, drive this guy away, Xiao Hei will accompany you to fight up the mountain."
With his experience in Ding'an City, Xiao Hei knew that Li Xiuyuan would definitely not lead a large group of troops to fight up the mountain.
As long as you stay at the bottom of the mountain and two people go up, it is enough.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, took out the letter he had prepared long ago, took out the iron bow and iron arrows, and carefully wrapped the letter around the arrow body.
Looking at the two men, he said calmly: "Let me shoot an arrow first, so that if they understand this, they will know why this war cannot be fought in the end."
"Why?" Nalan Yu frowned and asked, "They are monks, not Linghu Zhen who lived by the Fuchun River back then, nor are they the army of the imperial dynasty."
Li Xiuyuan replied: "The way to use troops is to attack the heart first, and attack the city next. Fighting with the heart is the uppermost, and fighting with soldiers is the lower priority."
Xiao Hei didn't even think about it, looked at him and replied: "Brother, if I can't kill them, I have to scare a few to death."
When Nalanyu heard this, he immediately replied angrily: "Is this...useful? What are we going to do in the past three days?"
"Guard the intersection at the bottom of the mountain, and you can only get out but not in!" Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "I will explain the specific method to my brother after I finish shooting this arrow."
After saying that, he walked out of the big tent holding the iron bow, looked in the direction of Qingcheng, and took a deep breath.
The mist in the mountains in spring was so thick that not only Nalanyu but also Xiaohei couldn't see everything on the mountain.
Li Xiuyuan bent his bow and nocked an arrow, aiming somewhere on the mountain, and then closed his eyes.
When everyone was stunned, they said softly: "I wish you good luck!"
Then there was only a sound of "Buzz!" The bowstring sounded, and a black lightning pierced the spring mist, passed through the layer of clouds, and flew into the sky cheering.
After a long while, Li Xiuyuan sighed leisurely, put away the bow and arrow in his hand, looked at Nalan Yu and said, "Let's go back and make tea."
After returning to the tent and sitting down, Li Xiuyuan lit a fire and boiled water while looking at Nalan Yu and said: "The monks who come down the mountain, as long as they are below the state of distraction, will be released without interrogation."
Without waiting for Nalan Yu's reply, he continued: "After careful interrogation at the fifth level of distraction, they can be released. If they go up further, let them go back!"
Nalan Yu was stunned, looked at him and said, "Where are the elders and disciples who participated in the Beihai War?"
In his opinion, after all, Qingcheng's disciples had suffered many casualties in Beihai back then, so it was really unjustifiable to not let them live now.
Xiao Hei couldn't understand what the two were talking about, so he just stood aside quietly, waiting for his brother to make tea.
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said leisurely: "With the credentials of participating in the war, both elders and disciples can be released."
"But there is a situation. If the elders who participated in the Beihai War back then and went to the Imperial City to carry out assassinations this time kill themselves, they can be allowed to leave alive."
"At least there were disciples who were disabled on the Beihai battlefield and could not be cured. My eldest brother asked them to stay in the army temporarily until I finished solving the Qingcheng matter and then treat them."
Regardless of whether he will pay attention to the imperial city in the future, he experienced it personally in the Beihai battlefield, so he naturally understands how tragic it was.
At least before he rushed to the battlefield from the imperial city, the army led by Nalanyu did not block the attack of the Beihai army.
Now that he has the ability to heal these disabled people, he doesn't mind using his extra strength as a way to repay the emperor's favor.
Nalanyu was stunned, and after a long silence, he said, "Are you going to repay the favor for the emperor?"
Looking at the flames gradually burning on the table, Li Xiuyuan thought for a moment and then said.
"If I don't solve it, who among you, the Emperor or Big Brother, can solve it? Xiaoju's brother, my brother still has a broken hand, and he hasn't been found yet..."
"That's the brother I've been playing with since I went there for a few days. As a result, one of my arms remained on the Beihai battlefield forever."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said leisurely.
When Xiao Hei heard this, he asked in confusion: "Brother, is there too little elixir here to cure it?"
In Xiao Hei's opinion, he can even come back to life, let alone just one arm.
"The rules of the world here are different. It is difficult to regenerate a broken arm. Therefore, I want to give the Qingcheng disciples who lost their limbs a chance to be reborn."
No matter what Qingcheng will become in the end in his own hands, Li Xiuyuan still remembers the pain that the Beihai battlefield caused to Qingcheng.
Nalan Yu was stunned, not expecting Li Xiuyuan to make such a decision.
He couldn't help but sigh and said: "I guess the head of Qingcheng will be angry to death if he knows about this?"
Li Xiuyuan patted him on the shoulder and said: "The bridge leads to the bridge, the road leads to the road. I have not a penny to pay back the debts that need to be paid, and I will pay them back."
Upon hearing this, Nalanyu sighed helplessly.
Looking at Xiao Hei, he explained: "There was a big battle on the Beihai battlefield in the Five Regions back then. Qingcheng sent elders and disciples at that time. We owe it to them."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei nodded thoughtfully.
Looking at Li Xiuyuan, he said, "Xiao Hei and his brother will surround them down there for three days and let those innocent guys run away."
The spring water on the stove made a whirring sound. Li Xiuyuan cleaned the teapot and said, "Brother, tell the army to start cooking. Tell them that there will be no fighting in the next three days."
Nalan Yu nodded, stood up and walked outside.
After Nalan Yu walked out of the tent, Li Xiuyuan looked at Xiao Hei and said, "In the next two days, Xiao Hei, you have to work hard and go to the mountains at night to take a look..."
"Hee hee, Xiao Hei likes this job." Xiao Hei looked at him and said seriously: "Don't worry, brother, there will be no one left behind."
"Don't fight with others. If you can't, fly back. They won't dare to rush down while I'm here."
Li Xiuyuan thought and thought about everything that might happen. He was ensuring Xiao Hei's safety.
He didn't want to plan it dozens of times and end up capsizing in the gutter.
Xiao Hei thought for a while and said: "Brother, don't worry, Xiao Hei will go up when it gets dark. Just like last time, he won't miss any place."
Li Xiuyuan looked at him and sighed, and said quietly: "After this is done, you can go home with me, and we can live a peaceful life in peace for a few years."
Xiao Hei patted his chest and chuckled, "As long as Xiao Hei doesn't starve, he can go anywhere with his brother."
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at him and laughed angrily: "In that case, you can go back to the Imperial City with General Nalan. There are all kinds of delicious food in the Imperial City. In the summer, Sister Hua will make peach blossom cakes for you to eat."
…
Halfway through Unity Hour, the peaks of Qingcheng have gradually fallen into darkness.
What was different from usual was that neither the leader nor the law enforcement elders and several elders had any intention of resting. Everyone gathered in the main hall where the leader Yuan Qiu was.
Because, Qingcheng's disciples found an arrow from the sky at the door of the main hall. They were shocked at first glance and quickly took it to the master's hands.
As the leader, Yuan Qiu couldn't help frowning when he saw it, and quickly called the law enforcement elders and others over, hoping that everyone would come up with a countermeasure together.
Seeing the army of the imperial city at the foot of the mountain approaching, even if one disciple is harmed at this time, it will cause an uproar in the sect.
Ever since the Beihai War, Yuan Qiu, as the leader, has been carefully protecting the safety of his disciples.
At least the wind and rain of the world will not be allowed to invade Qingcheng.
Unexpectedly, because of Su Qingyue's selfish interests, Qingcheng sent more than a dozen elders to the imperial city to ambush and assassinate the palace guards.
In the end, the Queen and Su Qingyue died, and the Imperial Master led an army to Qingcheng in person, vowing to seek justice from Qingchang.
And this justice obviously requires the lives of seventeen elders in exchange. After thinking about it, Yuan Qiu couldn't help but sigh.
Looking at the law enforcement elder Yuan Qiu in the hall, he said: "Elder law enforcement, didn't you say that the national master is just a young man with no cultivation? Now he has led his army to the bottom of the mountain."
There was a strange light in Yuan Qiu's eyes, and a hint of cruelty.
The law enforcement elder looked at him and said, "I'm sure they gave my elders and disciples time to go down the mountain and escape. They are prepared."
What Murong Ming, a law enforcement elder, didn't expect was that after drinking a cup of hot tea, Li Xiuyuan shot a number of iron arrows into the mountain.
Just like the battle on the Fuchun River, there was a letter on each iron arrow, telling every disciple and elder who saw this letter not to be enemies of the imperial court and to go down the mountain and escape.
Yuan Qiu was startled when he heard it, and immediately remembered the contents of the letter.
But he still sneered: "How can I, the disciple of Qingcheng, be afraid of the threat from the secular dynasty?"
"I don't know either." Murong Ming lowered his eyes slightly and murmured to himself, "I never thought of attacking him that day."
"It's inconvenient for Elder Murong in the imperial city, but it's okay here." Yuan Qiu said coldly: "This is not a human world, you can kill people!"
