On the same day, Qi Canghuang returned from spying on the enemy, and happened to meet the defeated army from Zhenge City from a long distance.
Qi Canghuang first arranged for a place to stay, and then went to report inside. Then he led Xiao Zhuyuan and Yang Qingcang to the main hall of Baotingfeng Daomen to explain the situation of the war.
Li Xiaoyang led the crowd to greet each other in front of the steps, saluted and greeted each other, and then invited each other to take a seat in the hall.
When it came to hoeing the demon, all the cultivators felt sad. Xiao Zhuyuan said: "Lu Wu led Ye Qi and Wu Peng to break the city. We were unable to catch it and abandoned the city. We are willing to accept the punishment."
Li Xiaoyang felt ashamed and said, "This matter is due to my negligence. How dare I ask others about their guilt?"
Xuanyuan Yi said: "Lu Wu personally took action. Even with Abbot Xuanjing guarding the city, it was difficult to prevent the city from being breached. Zhenge City's combat power was completely preserved. The alliance leader does not need to blame himself."
The rest of the crowd agreed and advised Li Xiaoyang not to be upset.
Xuanjing went into seclusion to recover from his injured body, and ordered Xuanyin and Xuanxu to do the work for him. Xuanyin said together: "Amitabha, Xi Yao Chen Bing Xuan Ice Territory is a hidden danger after all. Please make it clear to the leader of the alliance how to deal with it."
Li Xiaoyang had been thinking about it for many days, still wandering between war and peace. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at Qi Canghuang.
Qi Canghuang understood what he meant and reported: "Xi Yao drank and feasted all day long without leaving. There was no trace of anyone in the snowy plains, and all the monsters were recuperating in the Huanye Palace. The Dragon Lord and the Dragon Queen returned to the sea and never chased the mermaids. clan."
Li Xiaoyang felt a little relieved and said: "Yu Ge said he was tired of living on land, so he left with his tribe. I was originally worried that the treasure dragon tribe would be exterminated, but I am just worrying about it."
Xuanyuan Yi said: "The Xi Yao is so close, every time I think of it being swallowed by a whale, this move is intended to paralyze us, we should not take it lightly."
Xia Yan knew that Xuanyuan Yi wanted to advocate a continuation of the war, so he interjected: "Both sides are hurt now, morale is low, and it may be difficult to resume the war in the short term."
Xuanyuan Yi said: "Lu Wu and Xi Yao have made an alliance with each other. If they wait until they have calmed down before attacking from both sides, the situation will become even more difficult."
The group of cultivators remained silent. Xuanyuan Yi's worries were not unreasonable. Xia Yan's statement was also true. The Ancient Ape Emperor asked, "Why not select elites to attack Lu Wu, and then confront Xi Yao after the worries are over?"
Xuanyuan Yi explained: "Lu Wu and Xi Yao have a favorable geographical position, which cannot be defeated overnight. Moreover, the two armies are linked together. If the troops are divided slightly carelessly, it is easy to focus on one and miss the other, which will only increase the chaos."
Li Xiaoyang also said: "Xi Yao's magical powers are common to everyone, and Lu Wu is famous far and wide. I may not be as good as him in Taoism. There will be many times the number of people who cannot refuse him, so we must find another good strategy."
The ancient ape emperor thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense, so he immediately kept silent.
Xiao Zhuyuan suddenly said: "When Xiao evacuated Zhenge Fortress, he reserved several cultivators such as Zhuo Jing to hide outside the mountains to observe the enemy's situation. In the morning, he received a report that Lu Wu had ordered the vassal beasts to return to the wilderness, alone. I took Ye Qi, Wu Peng and others alone to cross the Beidi Touxuan Ice Territory."
Lu Wu gave up the pincer attack and threw himself at Xi Yao from a distance. This foolish move left the group of cultivators at a loss.
Li Xiaoyang and Xuanyuan Yi were both confused and asked Xiao Zhuyuan whether the news was reliable.
Xiao Zhuyuan looked solemn and said slowly: "Zhuo Jing noticed that Lu Wu was running far away, so he followed him at a distance and refused to turn back until he reached Baishou Mountain. Duan Bua sneaked back to inquire about the news and reported that the city was intact as before and that the beasts were returning to the wilderness in an orderly manner."
Xuanyuan Yi guessed: "Lu Wu is willing to turn against the human race, and there will be profits. He heard that Xi Yao won and entered the Huanye Palace, so he rushed to get a piece of the pie, which is reasonable. He retreated after breaking the city, probably because he wanted to predict Leave a leeway."
Li Xiaoyang was overjoyed, looked at Xiao Zhuyuan and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Madam, acts cautiously, the information must be conclusive."
The group of cultivators were also overjoyed, secretly sighing that this was probably the only good news since the beginning of the war.
Considering that the troops had no fighting spirit, after a short discussion, Li Xiaoyang and Xuanyuan Yi agreed on a temporary truce. Each sect was asked to allocate monks, and a group of rebel troops stationed in Xuanji Mountain were mobilized to patrol the northern boundary to prevent sneak attacks; a group of sects turned back to the mountain sect to recharge their batteries, and the deadlines were cycled for half a year, waiting for the opportunity to reorganize the flag and fight again.
The policy was decided, and the order was jointly issued for implementation. The cultivators left one after another and returned to their bases to mobilize the legions.
Xuanyuan Yi invited Luo Wangshu to stay alone, cupped his hands and said, "Thanks to the master of the garden, I would like to be friends with Qin and Jin. I am very grateful."
Luo Wangshu smiled slightly and said, "Marriage is closely tied. We are determined to match it up, but it all depends on God's will."
Xuanyuan Yi said: "That makes sense. When a good and auspicious day is chosen, I will invite fellow Taoist Qianxue to come to propose marriage." After chatting for a while, he slowly walked out of the palace.
Under the eaves of the corridor outside the hall, two Huaqing disciples were whispering to each other, and one of them whispered: "Tongchenyuan's disciples maliciously sought trouble and beat the Xuanyuan disciple to pieces. Then he made eye contact with Han Bing in public, accusing Xuanyuan Feng of shielding his clansmen, and Very sarcastic."
"It's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!" A person next to him said: "Yesterday, I heard that Han Bing and Xuanyuan Feng were getting married. Is it a rumor?"
"The rumors are correct, but the Xuanyuan family once abducted senior Qingyan. This time he repeated his old tricks. How can Tongchenyuan continue to be fooled?" The former person said, "It would be more credible to say that he was pretending to propose marriage and then looking for an opportunity to humiliate him. Xuanyuan Feng put on a cuckold as soon as the news of her marriage was announced, how pitiful."
Although the voice was soft, it could not be concealed from the eyes and ears of Kongming cultivators. Luo Wangshu was shocked, and Xuanyuan Yi shouted coldly: "Who is talking nonsense? Come here quickly!"
The two Huaqing disciples turned their heads and saw Xuanyuan Yi. They were almost frightened to the point of incontinence. They knelt down and bowed to the ground with a bang, and said in panic: "This disciple was confused for a moment. I hope that my senior will show you your noble hand."
Xuanyuan Yi's murderous intent was blazing, and he desperately wanted to kill this stupid thing who was talking nonsense.
Luo Wangshu scolded: "Tell me the details carefully!"
The two men were obedient and recounted in detail the news they heard in Fangshi. His words were hesitant, but he added details without leaving a trace, exposing Yan Ci's conspiracy to the fullest. He begged for mercy, "I heard the rumors and spread the rumors. Please forgive me, senior."
Luo Wangshu was so angry that he raised his eyebrows and kicked Huaqing's disciples down with both feet, and wanted to return to Dengxia Peak to question him.
Xuanyuan Yi felt sullen and suppressed his displeasure and said, "This junior is just doing whatever he wants. Fairy, please calm down."
Luo Wangshu apologized, stepped on the rainbow clouds and threw the shuttle away.
Xuanyuan Yi's eyes flashed with anger, and he shouted: "Get out!" The two disciples were so frightened that they ran away in tears.
The purple mist curls up at the top of Dengxia Peak, gently changing its shape with the wind, as if revealing a sense of ridicule. Xuanyuan Yi stared into the distance for a moment, snorted several times, used his escape technique, and returned to his place of residence angrily.
There was no one around inside and outside the hall, except for the ginkgo tree, which was covered in golden armor and fluttered yellow leaves all over the ground.
In a very inconspicuous corner, He Zuwang and Kuji stepped on the golden carpet of ginkgo leaves and walked slowly.
He Zuwang, with his rotten teeth, spoke in a leaky manner, as if blowing a small whistle, and sneered: "The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention. Xuanyuan family and Tongchenyuan will be more suspicious, and the marriage discussion will become an episode."
Kuji said: "Paper can't contain the fire. Sooner or later Xuanyuan Yi will hear about the scandal in the house. Why bother with this?"
He Zuwang said: "Qing Ming's disciples will definitely retaliate. Sooner or later they will have a head-on conflict with Pindao. Instead of just waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative to eradicate them."
Kuji said: "Tong Chenyuan and the Xuanyuan clan have deep old grudges. How could Luo Wangshu really punish Yan Ci severely for doing such stupid things that would make his relatives angry and his enemies happy?"
He Zuwang smiled and said: "The more Luo Wangshu protects him, the more dissatisfied the Xuanyuan family is. Regardless of whether the punishment is light or heavy, the estrangement has become more serious. If you just want to stir up trouble, even if the two families become enemies again, we will sit back and watch. Fighting, why not do it?"
Kuji put on a frivolous look and said with a smile: "After I ordered the master to ride a crane to the west, my fellow Taoist still has no change of heart!"
He Zuwang looked gloomy, thinking to himself that since Lin Daozi passed away, all kinds of disputes have stopped abruptly, the Huaqing clan has become peaceful, and there is no longer a sense of inadequacy in doing things.
Kuji regretted his mistake and advised: "Today is different from the past. The only way to avoid disaster is to change one's appearance."
He Zuwang forced his face and said with a smile: "A country can be changed easily, but one's nature cannot be changed. Life and death are determined by heaven, how can we force it?" He looked at the resting place of the disciples on duty at the back of the palace, and continued slowly: "The complainer must not be kept. I hope the monk can help me." Get rid of it." Kuji remained silent and nodded slightly.
※
But Luo Wangshu returned to Dengxia Peak and angrily sent an order to summon Han Bing and Yan Ci for questioning.
Qing Ming didn't know why, but when he saw Luo Wangshu being so angry, he knew something was wrong and hurriedly told him to pass it on immediately.
Luo Wangshu shouted at Qing Ming and ordered Wanli Feng to get the person quickly.
Wan Lifeng did not dare to delay, and immediately brought Yan Ci and Han Bing to the table to wait for processing.
Luo Wangshu didn't want to listen to any explanation, so he started to protest and wanted to abolish the two rebels.
Hu Buyi, Qing Ming and the elder Li Li were afraid and did not dare to ask for details. Fortunately, the Ancient Ape Emperor and Yuan Muyun were present to persuade them and they were able to clarify the situation.
Yan Ci racked his brains and couldn't figure out how Luo Wangshu could know so clearly, and immediately blamed himself for not confessing the details.
Luo Wangshu became more and more annoyed. Regardless of his identity, he kicked over the desk and wanted to do it himself.
Others were wary of Luo Wangshu's authority, but only the ancient ape emperor dared to stand up and protect him. He stepped out of the way, and in a hurry, without a better excuse to persuade him, he said indiscriminately: "This naughty guy looks extremely pleasing to the eye, if the master of the garden is like Abandoning his teachings, where can I find such good disciples?"
The crowd was astonished and secretly scolded the ancient ape emperor for being more and more helpful. This was clearly adding fuel to Luo Wangshu's anger.
Luo Wangshu was furious, but the Ancient Ape Emperor ignored them and wanted to recruit Yan Ci and Han Bing as disciples by name, vowing not to give in until death.
Yan Ci had heard in the past that the Ancient Ape Emperor had a weird temperament, but looking at it now, no one in the world was cuter than him.
When the commotion broke out, Xia Yan and Qian Xue heard the news and came together to persuade them. Seeing the heated battle in the palace, they were so shocked that they couldn't stop talking. They said all they could to temporarily coax Luo Wangshu, while Qing Ming took the opportunity to persuade Gu to withdraw. Ape King.
Qianxue said: "This matter has damaged the face of the two families. After all, it is because Xuanyuan's children did evil things. It is not good for the garden master to punish him severely."
Luo Wangshu said in surprise: "What do you mean by this?"
Qianxue listened and said: "The master of the garden agreed to propose a marriage, and Han Bing is the one to be married. If Tao Xing is abolished, how can the Xuanyuan family get married? Rumors are spreading everywhere, saying that Han Bing and Yan Ci are in love with each other, how can Xuanyuan Feng not Do you have a grudge? The punishment should not be made public, it should be minimized."
Luo Wangshu hesitated, but saw the ancient ape emperor looking at Han Bing and Yan Ci back and forth, as if looking at his apprentices.
The cultivators pretended not to hear Qianxue's words of advice and continued to beg for mercy.
Luo Wangshu's face was a little brighter and he took the lead in cooking Yan Ci. Yao snorted coldly and said, "Yan Ci is stubborn and stubborn. He refuses to change despite repeated admonitions. He will be punished with two hundred lashes to serve as a warning to others."
Then he ordered Han Bing to torture him in the palace, and ordered him not to do it perfunctorily. As expected, it would be over with a beating, and the group of cultivators were lucky enough to secretly do it. Yan Ci was also secretly happy, and he lay down on the ground to be tortured happily.
Luo Wangshu watched from the side, not daring to let go of the beating.
Han Bing's heart was cut like a knife, and he was weeping while lashing out his whip. The whip fell like rain, and the whip contained the power of breaking muscles and bones.
Yan Ci fainted several times, but remained silent, which was pitiful to see.
After the shadow of the whip dissipated, Luo Wangshu was still angry, and then ordered Yan Ci to go back to Tongchen Garden immediately, and not to leave Luojia Mountain without permission.
Han Bing was instigated by others and did not know right from wrong. The Qing Ming followers were incompetent and indulged the stubborn people in their misbehavior several times, but he was demoted back to Tongchenyuan to think about his mistakes.
Luo Wangshu Yang Qianxue asked Xuanyuan Yi for help to explain, and she must clear up all the past suspicions, and then left the monks in the hall and walked away.
The ancient ape emperor looked up to the sky and said in a commanding tone: "Take good care of this brat. I will come back another day to take in a disciple!"
Luo Wangshu turned a deaf ear, walked quickly, and hurriedly walked into the back hall.
