In order not to alarm Prince Su, Li Chuan and his party did not take the fairy boat after leaving the capital, but chose to take a carriage. So after walking for almost half a month, we arrived near Heyuan Town.
Fortunately, the journey was safe, and we didn't encounter any monsters. We were only stopped once by bandits. Gong Er flew out and shot him, and then the problem was solved.
Dull.
When they were approaching Heyuan Town, the carriage suddenly stopped. Li Chuan looked out and saw Luo Xueli, dressed in black, walking towards them with a serious expression.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Luo Xueli took them to a secret stronghold.
After arriving, Luo Xueli explained the current situation to them and said: "The sphere of influence of the Stone Dragon Vine Demon has actually been under the control of Qintian Prison for a long time. Therefore, after Prince Su enters here, what if he enters a certain place?" In a big dream. Currently, about two-thirds of the demons have fallen victim to my nightmare technique."
Li Chuan knew about Luo Xueli's magic, and after hearing it, he felt that Prince Su was like a turtle in an urn.
Luo Xueli continued: "Prince Su should have noticed that several monster teams have appeared near the encirclement recently and clashed."
"Did you do it on purpose?" Wen Guying suddenly said.
"Yes, I have been waiting here for too long." Luo Xueli admitted and said: "Among the monsters who have not been affected by the nightmare technique, some of them are probably too low in intelligence, while others may have higher cultivation levels, and Prince Su Personally, he has taken Yunmeng Guanxinhua and is immune to my nightmare technique."
"He should be trying to break out at this time. Spending time here will only become more and more disadvantageous for him; and I also want to use this to capture him in one fell swoop." Luo Xueli said his plan.
"What demon cultivators are around him?" Wen Guying asked.
"I don't know, it should be the person who originally followed King Lingyu." Luo Xueli replied, and then he added: "We haven't had a head-to-head confrontation yet, but from the news I got, there are many masters around him. "
Then he added: "The monsters that have been hit by the nightmare spell will fall into a deep sleep. Those with too low intelligence will not be able to make any waves. In the end, the number of monsters we will face will not be large, but their strength is not low."
Li Chuan thought for a while and felt that Luo Xueli had made very thorough arrangements. Indeed, whether they came or not, the result would be the same.
Wen Guying said: "There can't be only demon cultivators around him. How many casual cultivators are helping him?"
"I don't know." Luo Xueli replied, and explained: "Soon after His Majesty succeeded to the throne, Prince Su went to his territory and rarely returned to the capital. If the junior sister hadn't brought back the information about Shilongteng, we wouldn't have been able to do it. I don’t know that he is actually involved with the big demon. How many demon cultivators he has become friends with and what he has promised them, Qin Tian Jian doesn’t know anything about it.”
Luo Xueli said: "Qin Tian Jian is just an institution to deal with the chaos caused by demons and ghosts. It doesn't care about anything else."
Li Chuan felt that Wen Guying might have thought of something, so he asked, "Daoist Wen, who do you think in Xuanmen will help Prince Su?"
"It's hard to say. When Suhan was born, a soaring dragon appeared in the sky. Even if the empress succeeds to the throne, many people believe that Suhan is the true dragon master and will inherit the throne sooner or later." Wen Guying explained to Li Chuan, he said : "The serious monks of the sect are not willing to get involved in these things, but among the casual cultivators, there are still people who will covet the fortune of the real dragon. After all, it has only been a few years."
Luo Xueli also said: "Many casual cultivators, their behavior is no different from evil cultivators, they just do it in a hidden way and are not exposed."
"So there are at least three subordinates of the great demon gathered here. The subordinates of the Spirit Fish King of Suliu Lake, the subordinates of the Black Horn King of Xuanshui Mountain who defected to her, and the subordinates of the Stone Dragon Vine Demon." Wen Guying The summary said: "Monsters have demonic nature, and most casual cultivators have eccentric personalities. It is very strange that this person and the monster have been gathered together for such a long time without fighting among themselves."
"Is it because of Prince Su?" Li Chuan asked.
"I don't know," Wen Guying turned around and looked in the direction of the Stone Dragon Vine Demon's territory and said, "I just feel that the monsters over there are extremely arrogant." He paused and said, "Friend Luo, instead of waiting here, Su Han breaks out, why don't I go take a trip and see what's going on, what do you think?"
Luo Xueli said: "That is the way of monks, and it is better for you to go than for me to go. I am better at hiding my aura."
"So why didn't you just go there, hide yourself, wait for the opportunity, and capture Su Han directly to claim credit?" Wen Guying raised a question. He said, "Before coming out, I asked Mr. Gong, and he assured me that he I have absolutely no intention of letting Su Han go. But I see that your arrangement seems thoughtful, but in fact it poses no threat to Su Han."
Wen Guying said in a calm tone: "I am not attacking you. Since I promised to come, I will go all out. So I also ask fellow Taoist Luo to explain to me the details."
Luo Xueli did not hide anything and said: "The people involved in this operation are not only the people from the Demon Control Division, but also the people from the Ministry of War. The master wants to use this operation to let the two sides get along."
"Why?" Li Chuan asked.
"The great catastrophe is approaching, and the master hopes that when the troubled times come, more people, not monsters, will survive," Luo Xueri looked at Wen Guying and said, "The master has always thought that it is a joke that Xuanmen is separated from mortals. Monks all We are mortals, and our initial training is just to strengthen our bodies and fight against demons, ghosts, and various disasters."
"Now, except for the time when the monks are experiencing calamities, they will return to the mortal world. The rest of the time, because they are afraid of being contaminated by the cause and effect, they ignore the mortal world like snakes and scorpions."
Luo Xueli's plain face showed some fluctuations, and she said: "I know you don't agree with the master's philosophy. But since the master entered the court, he has trained many people. Not to mention my junior brothers and sisters, and As for the monster masters. For example, the monster masters who are now walking around the world use some of the methods they use, which are derived from the master's friend Ming Heng's summary of the characteristics of monsters, as well as the master's simplified skills, spells and formations. "
"In every demonic disaster from the previous dynasty to the present, the master did not take action directly and roughly. Instead, he coordinated with all parties and conducted troop training to ensure that even if he left Qintian Prison, many people would know roughly what to do."
Luo Xueli said: "Master doesn't want to establish a sect in Xuanmen. He wants to have some disciples in the human world who are willing to practice for mortals, not for ascension."
Li Chuan finally understood where Zhu Qingyun's ideas came from.
"I see." Wen Guying said, "My ways are different from Master Gong's, so I won't comment on his approach. However, in the current situation, if we don't capture the king directly, there are too many variables."
Then Luo Xueli and Wen Guying discussed how to deal with Prince Su's breakout. The two of them had similar cultivation levels, Wen Guying was at a higher level, and Luo Xueli had more tricks, and they quickly came up with several plans.
The update time during holidays is not very fixed, but try to keep it as constant as possible.
Also, today I went to a friend's place and caught a big free-range rooster. It felt similar to what I had before, and it didn't jump as well.
