Ye Qingyao didn't know that Jiang Shuo recognized Ruixi. Seeing that he was about to go down to help, he pulled him and said softly: "Brother Suzhi, don't worry, their demon sect bites dogs. We are just watching a show. We don't know about the second envoy of the demon sect yet." If there are any other helpers, we might as well wait."
Although Rui Xi inside the Holy Fire Church is fighting one against two, his defeat has not yet been revealed, but the believers he brought outside may not be able to wait any longer. At this moment, the noise outside the hospital is getting louder and louder. It seems that they are being attacked by Miao Feng Church and Guangming. The believers brought back by the second envoy were encircled and suppressed.
Jiang Shuo said to Ye Qingyao: "Although the demon sect is evil, ordinary believers are not all bad people. They still need to be saved." After saying that, he was about to jump off the beam, but suddenly he heard someone stumble in, but it was Huaijin who just left.
He shouted in a panic: "Second Envoy of Light, something bad is going to happen! Something is going to happen!"
Cui Qianyou was taken aback, made a false slash, and withdrew from the circle, asking Huaijin, "What's going on outside?"
Huaijin said: "The main altar has been surrounded by the Hanako Legion of Minglitang!"
Cui Qianyou angrily rebuked: "Impossible! Damujia has left you many masters to guard the main altar, and the two of us have also brought back many masters. Although Ruixi has many followers, there are not many masters. How could it be possible that he would occupy the main altar?" Where’s Yu?」
Huaijin was already in a state of confusion, and said incoherently, "I don't know either... I saw the earth was turned upside down outside, the sun was blocked by sand and dust, people were on their backs... this, it's a mess..."
Cui Qianyou said angrily: "What a mess!"
Over there, Tian Qianzhen was still fighting with Ruixi. His kung fu was not as good as Ruixi's. Without Cui Qianyou, he was immediately at a disadvantage. Ruixi slapped him twice on his shoulders and legs. Fortunately, he was rough-skinned and thick-bodied, so it didn't matter. It's a serious problem, but it's still a mess. It's really a "mess".
Tian Qianzhen panicked and thought that Cui Qianyou was talking about him, so he couldn't help but said angrily: "Cui Youshi! If you suddenly get out of the way, wouldn't I be beaten into a mess? Come and help, I can't defeat Ruixi by myself!"
Cui Qianyou scolded: "What are you talking about? Stop fighting now and come with me to go out and have a look!"
As he spoke, he stepped forward and slashed with his sword, forcing Rui Xi back. He dragged Tian Qianzhen and ran out. Huaijin followed the two of them and ran out for two steps, then looked back at Rui Xi. He seemed hesitant, but in the end he still He turned around and ran out quickly.
Rui Xi was not in a hurry to pursue, he smiled, waited for a moment and said: "Everyone, come out!"
Jiang Shuo was stunned and thought: I didn't expect Ruixi to have discovered us already. Just as he was about to jump off the beam, he was pulled back by Ye Qingyao. She waved her hand gently, pointed to her ears, and then pointed outwards. pointed.
After Jiang Shuo regained his composure for a moment, he heard the sound of countless footsteps, and then saw a group of Manichaeans wearing dirty robes entering the Holy Fire Hall with long-handled shovels. More and more people entered, and there were actually about a hundred people standing there. These people looked as gray as if they had emerged from the earth, and dust was scattered behind them as they walked.
One of the people in front made a flaming gesture to Ruixi and said: "Dharma protector..."
Ruixi interrupted him and said, "Worship the Holy Fire first."
The believers who came in all knelt down in front of the holy fire, kowtowed and prayed loudly: "If there is an enlightened messenger, come out in the world, educate all living beings, and free them from suffering..." Every time these people bend down to kowtow, they will leave a mark on the ground. After holding the sand and praying a few words, a thin layer of sand fell on the ground.
After the prayers were finished, everyone stood up again. The leader said to Rui Xi: "Everyone outside has been dealt with, but the two envoys of light are very clever. Our methods may not be able to trap them."
Ruixi said: "Just let the brothers hide. Don't fight head-on. Their men have all been damaged and they won't have the fighting spirit to fight for a long time. Just force these two away."
The leader nodded in agreement, then turned to give a few instructions to the person behind him. The person turned around and was about to walk out. Ruixi called out to him and said, "Cui and Tian are Apo's best friends, and they will definitely not change their minds, but I just saw that Huai Jin was already hesitant. If we can capture him, we might be able to win over Miao Feng Hall, but this would save a lot of unnecessary killings."
The man also made a burning flame gesture and said, "I understand."
Jiang Shuo saw that the followers of Ruixi were very different from the followers of the demon sect Apo. In addition to their rough clothes, there were also obvious differences in how they got along. Firstly, only Ruixi
His subordinates only use the gesture of burning flames, but Apo, Cui Tian and others do not have this gesture; secondly, although Ruixi's disciples respect Ruixi, they do not use honorifics, and they never talk about subordinates, orders, etc. speech.
Ye Qingyao lowered his voice and said: "The Second Envoy of Light has just left. How did these Rui Xi's men get in? Unfortunately, the roof is too high. We can't see the scene in the courtyard outside the house while hiding inside."
Jiang Shuo chuckled and said, "What's so difficult about this?"
He stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand and poked the tile in front of him with his eyes. His poke implied the Qi control method taught by Mr. Zhang Guo, and two small holes were poked out on the thick tile. The hole is just right for the eyes to look out and see the scene in the courtyard.
Jiang Shuo stretched out his fingers to poke the tiles for Ye Qingyao again. He was about to do the same thing, but when he glanced at Ye Qingyao, he changed his right index finger and middle finger together and poked twice, leaving a mark on the tiles. Two larger holes were made.
Ye Qingyao wondered: "Why do I have to use two fingers to poke?"
Jiang Shuo laughed softly and said, "I see that your eyes are much bigger than mine, sister. I'm afraid that the holes poked with one finger are too small for you to see."
When Ye Qingyao heard Jiang Shuo say that he had big eyes, he didn't know whether it was a compliment or a disservice, but he thought that at least he was paying attention to his appearance. He couldn't help but blush again and whispered softly: "Meng Lang... always makes fun of me."
Jiang Shuo stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to say any more.
The two looked out through the holes in the tiles, and saw that several bluestones in the courtyard outside the pavilion had been opened up, revealing several large holes. It turned out that they had arrived here through the tunnel, and the man who had just taken the order jumped into the hole and disappeared. .
Ye Qingyao said softly: "It turns out they dug a hole in the ground to get in.":
Jiang Shuo replied: "It seems that Minglitang under Ruixi's rule is the best at building tunnels. The last time they attacked Junyi Mansion in Bianzhou, they even dug down the city tower."
Ye Qingyao said: "It turns out that you have met this demon sect elder before."
Jiang Shuo nodded and said, "It's a long story, but in short, I think Elder Ruixi is different from other people in the Demon Sect and is not a bad person."
Ye Qingyao said: "I heard that the Demon Cult is good at covering up. Maybe you haven't noticed his disguise yet?"
Jiang Shuo said: "Sister, what you said is true, this is also possible... We might as well wait and see what happens." Hearing that Ruixi's men had the upper hand, he changed his mind and didn't show up in a hurry. He wanted to see them first. Make plans for what you are going to do.
At this time, Ruixi below was saying to everyone: "Prepare the rope."
All the believers claimed that there were several people carrying large hemp ropes on their shoulders. They untied the ropes, found four pillars, wound the ropes around the pillars several times and tied them tightly before tying the other ends of the ropes. Throw one end out of the hall.
Jiang Shuo and Ye Qingyao looked at each other, not knowing what they were going to do.
Ruixi said: "Please give me the Holy Fire."
Everyone brought an iron cabinet. Jiang Shuo had seen a similar cabinet in Shaolin Temple and knew it was used by Manichaeism to transport the holy fire. The believer opened the lid and found that it was indeed covered with chaga mushrooms. A believer held a torch and ignited it in the holy fire, and then lit the chaga inside the iron cabinet. When the flame ignited, the believers quickly closed the lid, so that the holy fire was smoldering in the cabinet and could be used to preserve the fire. Long distance transportation.
Jiang Shuo saw demon sect members worshiping fire more than once, and thought to himself: This sacred fire is very important to the demon sect members. Since Ruixi was expelled from the sect, there was no sacred fire, so he took advantage of the emptiness of the general altar. On this occasion, he sneaked in to steal fire.
A group of believers carried the iron cabinet containing fire out of the Holy Fire Hall. Ruixi glanced at the blazing holy fire burning in the center and said, "Let's go, everyone out."
Ye Qingyao suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed softly: "Ah, that's not good..." He said to Jiang Shuo: "It seems they are going to pull down the beams and knock down the main altar's sacred fire."
Jiang Shuo had also thought about this. It turned out that Ruixi not only wanted to steal the holy fire, but also wanted to destroy the main altar's holy fire. In this way, the devil's holy fire would be his own.
Ye Qingyao said: "What should we do? If we go out now, we will definitely be discovered by these demon sect people."
Jiang Shuo said: "At that time, I will have no choice but to break in." He was not very worried. The hundred or so people under Ruixi obviously did not have outstanding martial arts. If he wanted to escape with Ye Qingyao,
Go, I'm afraid they can't stop you.
At this moment, Ruixi and others had walked out of the hall. Ruixi was standing in the open space that Jiang Shuo and the others could see. Ruixi directed the people to arrange the ropes. The one hundred people were divided into four groups and pulled the ropes to pull the four last trees. The important load-bearing pillars were pulled down. Jiang Shuo made a little calculation in his mind. If these four pillars were pulled down, the pointed roof of the Holy Fire Hall would inevitably collapse inward, which would be enough to suppress the Holy Fire of the Demon Sect.
The believers shouted neat chants and began to pull the ropes. The wooden structure of the entire hall immediately began to creak. Jiang Shuo thought that it was only a matter of time before the roof collapsed. There was no point in hiding on the beams anymore, so he prepared to take the Ye Qingyao broke through the roof tiles and rushed outside.
At this juncture, something suddenly changed again. There was a loud "bang" sound, and the courtyard door that had just been closed by the believers was knocked open from the outside. A person outside the courtyard said loudly: "Rui Xi, you are also a Mo." How can the protective elders of the nuns extinguish their own holy fire?" The speaker was an old man with strong internal energy, and another young man's voice said: "Ruixi, it is useless for you to steal the fire. In Fanyang and Longyou, But there are still many temples enshrining the sacred fire."
Then three loud noises came. Although Jiang Shuo couldn't see it, he thought that the courtyard doors in the other three directions were also knocked open. What entered the courtyard was a group of warriors in black armor. It was Fan Yangjie. Du made the most elite Yiluohe warrior under his command.
The person who spoke earlier also appeared in the courtyard. It was Master and Disciple Yin Ziqi and An Qingxu whom he had not seen for a long time.
An Qingxu crossed his hands towards Ruixi and said, "Elder Ruixi, I haven't seen you for two or three years. How are you?"
Ruixi snorted and said, "You are An Lushan's second son!"
An Qingxu crossed his hands and held his heart more respectfully and said, "It's Qingxu. My father has always respected Elder Ruixi very much and told me to be courteous when meeting the elder."
He sounded very humble when he spoke, but when he lowered his head, he glanced sideways upward at Rui Xi. There were more warriors in the Yiluohe River. Each team of seven people secretly formed several Xuanji formations, part of which guarded the ground dug by Rui Xi's men. At the entrance of the tunnel, some of them directly pointed knives and crossbows at Rui Xi's followers, but they didn't show any politeness at all.
Ruixi sneered and said, "An Qingxu, it turns out that you have an ambush. Do you want to prevent us from extinguishing the holy fire?"
An Qingxu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Otherwise, otherwise... Elder Ruixi, in fact, what we have to do is the same thing as what you have to do." As he said that, he patted the shoulder of the warrior named Yiluohe beside him. As expected, that The man also carries a bundle of rope on his back.
Ruixi asked curiously: "You are also here to extinguish the holy fire? Isn't An Lushan very good to Apo? He claims to be the god of war of the divine sect. Why did he send you here instead of helping Apo guard the main altar, but to extinguish the sacred fire? It's really unbelievable. ..."
