Zhao Cheng only brought a few generals and hundreds of elite cavalry, which could be said to be a light and simple journey. From Wucheng to Tianjueguan, there were avenues and small roads, and the narrowest places were even only small enough. With two horses running in parallel, it was difficult to speed up, but even so, Zhao Cheng and his party only took ten days to reach their destination.
In the distance, a huge city has appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the roads have gradually opened up.
After marching like this for more than half an hour, they saw a crowded group of people on the road ahead, but they were waiting there early.
The leader is a middle-aged man with a white face and a long beard, with a majestic expression and a majestic aura. He leads the horse, but when he stands there, he looks like a big mountain. It seems that no matter how hard the snow, rain, wind, and frost hit him, he can't wear it down at all. .
A little later, the two people who were also leading the horses looked older than the middle-aged people, but the evil spirit in their movements was earth-shattering, somewhat like a thunderstorm rising from the ground.
The leader of these three people was none other than Taoist Huang Tiangong, or General Tiangong.
The last two are none other than General Di Gong and General Ren Gong.
Further back, those on the left are a group of counselors under Taoist Huang Tian, headed by the great talent Li Tonghai, while those on the right are a group of young Taoists headed by Huang Qi.
When Zhao Cheng came out of the Southern Wilderness, Taoist Huang Tian led the crowd to personally greet him. Such courtesy was unprecedented.
In fact, before coming here, someone had persuaded Taoist Huang Tian, saying that he was the lord and Zhao Cheng was the minister. How could a lord go so far to greet his ministers in person? If he could greet his ministers at the gate of the city, it would already be heavenly. The great courtesy is enough to become a good story.
What's more, the two of them are masters and disciples. Although they are not direct disciples, they are there in such a name. It is even more inappropriate to greet the disciples as a master.
But Taoist Huang Tian said with a smile that the two of them were not principal ministers, but belonged to the same Huang Tian. Under the influence of cause and effect, they came together just to accomplish Huang Tian's great cause. Their own paths were about to come to an end, and now it was the right time. Yes, success does not have to be mine. There is no reason to rely on one's old age and neglect one's old age.
This group of people, led by Taoist Huang Tian, had been waiting for more than half an hour at a place twenty miles away from the city, but no one was impatient at all.
If Zhao Cheng failed to achieve even an inch of success, or if he failed to take Wucheng, it would definitely not have this effect.
But now, gathering the remaining soldiers and defeating the generals, and taking the city of Wucheng with five thousand armors, such a deed is no longer a legend, but a myth!
Unprecedented!
In this case, no one would feel impatient, but a variety of other emotions.
Especially when they saw a group of people approaching in the distance and vaguely saw their outlines, everyone's emotions gradually agitated.
Many veterans, seeing the mighty young man on the tall horse, couldn't help but think of their own prosperous years. When Huang Tian just appeared, they relied on their dissatisfaction with the world and their passion to raise their spears and gallop their horses. Use swords and weapons to fight your way through the world.
Especially the moment of returning from victory, this moment is exactly the same as that moment.
But in the blink of an eye, they were defeated and their ambitions were in vain.
As for giving up, those children of the wealthy families who joined Huang Tiandao halfway gave up early, and even fought back at critical moments, gaining a reputation for enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens.
They were the only ones who were born in a humble age. Although few of them had read books, they knew what loyalty was, but they never betrayed them.
But now, the old scene reappears, and some people think that Wu Qianjia's takeover of Wucheng, which was already doomed to defeat, seems to have turned around, and unconsciously, his eyes are a little moist.
Compared with the veterans, the mood of the Taoist group headed by Huang Qi was a little lighter. When Huang Qi saw the majestic figure coming on horseback, he just thought of his past. At that time, he seemed to be like this, galloping on the battlefield and defeating the army. Kill the general and return triumphantly.
But when the situation suddenly changed, this kind of thing had not happened for a long time.
Except for Huang Qi, the remaining Taoists also had different moods. Some of them were somewhat familiar with Zhao Cheng. Although they had known the news for a long time, they still felt that it was not true.
To put it into perspective, they can be said to be classmates and masters. They learned the same thing and succeeded in their subsequent studies. They also started from the same starting point and made contributions in the army. They even know that their fate last summer was all different. Not much difference.
Some students died on the battlefield, but those who did not die were either commander-in-chief or school captain. Their official positions were not high, but not low either.
After all, the basic qualities of a Taoist are there.
Once you enter the Tao and transform into Tao, your qualities in all aspects must surpass ordinary people, and only those with extraordinary talents can surpass Tao people.
If Zhao Cheng was just rising through the ranks and rising steadily, they might still be envious and jealous, but now, after gathering people in the mountains and taking Wucheng by force, General Yingtian can be said to have gained a great reputation. Such a huge victory The gap makes it difficult for people to even feel envious and jealous.
What's more, now they all know that Taoist Huang Tian wants to hand over his inheritance to him.
At that time, the other party will be the master, and they will be the ministers. Their status will be certain, and the gap will be even greater.
About fifty steps closer, Zhao Cheng had already dismounted, holding the horse's rope and walking, and the same was true for the Baiqi behind him.
Unlike Zhao Cheng who was calm, Baiqi behind him was now agitated and even trembling with excitement.
They were originally a group of defeated troops. They were defeated in the battle and even had to hide in the mountains and forests to survive. But now, they have returned with a great victory. Even Taoist Huang Tian came out of the city to welcome them in person. Before, It is simply unimaginable.
"teacher."
"I promised before that I would not return it until I took Wucheng. Now I have taken Wucheng, so I am back!"
When he arrived in front of Taoist Huang Tian, Zhao Cheng held his hand.
Although his realm of merit is far superior to that of Taoist Huang Tian, the body of this Taoist has the cause and effect of master and disciple. Although this life and the other body are one and not the same, therefore, the body of a Taoist is called a teacher, but There is no problem.
If it were not the Taoist body but his true body, the sound of the teacher coming down would probably be enough to make Taoist Huang Tian die suddenly on the spot.
If virtue is not coordinated and cause and effect is involved, there will be endless disasters.
As for heaven and earth, in Zhao Cheng's opinion, perhaps only by achieving Yuanshi can it be possible to completely abandon the influence of cause and effect.
Otherwise, the so-called absence of cause and effect is just a false proposition. As long as it exists in the world for one day, even if it does nothing, existence itself is a cause and will eventually turn into an effect.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Upon hearing this, Taoist Huang Tian burst into laughter and said three good words in a row.
