Chapter 531 Tianshui Lake

In the meeting hall of Middle Finger Peak, everyone gathered together. Tangning said, "This time, I called all my juniors here to discuss something. Just now, we are discussing matters in the courtyard. The sect has decided to rebuild the camp at the front line to prepare for the Phantom Sect's invasion. The camp is still located at Yingxia Mountain."

"Uncle Yin asked the department to send a foundation-building disciple and ten qi-refining disciples to garrison. I want Junior Brother Zhao to lead ten disciples there. Junior Brother Zhao, what do you think?"

Zhao Liheng nodded.

At present, there are only three stewards left in the sect of the intelligence department, namely Xu Yuan, Zhao Liheng and Xu Wenze, and there is a serious shortage of manpower.

Du Yuankai passed away three years ago, and there are no new foundation-building disciples these years, almost everyone has several positions, Xu Yuan is in charge of the finance department, and Zhao Liheng is in charge of the specific affairs of the action team because of his breakthrough in the middle stage of foundation-building. Xu Wen worked part-time as intelligence liaison, and Tang Ning worked part-time as intelligence summary.

"I have another task. I have to go to Tianshui Lake to guard the Flame Bird. Junior Brother Xu, I will leave the affairs of the intelligence department to you. Junior Brother Zhao. Three days later, you will lead your disciples to Qianxing Mountain and follow the sect to Yingxia Mountain."

The two nodded their heads.

Tang Ning announced that the discussion was over, everyone got up and left, each returning to the cave.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and there was still about half an hour before Chen's time. Tangning left the cave, and after a short walk, she came to the majestic main hall of Yuanyi Palace.

There were already three people waiting inside, and about a quarter of an hour later, two more people arrived. At Chen Shi, Peng Wanli came in from the outside.

Everyone bowed and saluted, calling them Uncle Peng.

Peng Wanli walked up to the main seat, and said: "A few days ago, the Youmei Sect attacked Tianshui Lake, causing heavy casualties to the guarding disciples. In order to prevent the Demon Sect from attacking again, the sect decided to strengthen the defense force. Each of them selected a disciple to go to the defense."

"In addition to guarding against the invasion of the Demon Sect, you will also be responsible for escorting the Flame Bird to Duanjishanfang City in one year to complete the handover. You know all of this!"

"Yes." Everyone responded.

"Tangning." Peng Wanli called out.

"The disciple is here." Tangning responded.

"The sect has decided that you will take over the defense of Tianshui Lake, and all the defensive disciples are waiting for your orders."

"Yes."

"Chen Fan."

"The disciple is here. A man with a fair complexion came out in response.

"You are familiar with the handover with the chamber of commerce. You will be in charge of the specific affairs of the Flame Bird and assist Tangning."

"Yes."

"Let's go! I'll take you to Tianshui Lake."

When everyone left the main hall, Peng Wanli waved his hand, and the aurora boat rose against the wind. Several people jumped onto the dharma boat, and the aurora boat left the sect and headed southeast.

Peng Wanli was flying in front of him, his spiritual power was controlling the dharma boat, and everyone was sitting on it. Tangning said, "All the juniors are selected by various palaces. I don't know a few of them. From now on, everyone will guard Tianshui Lake together. , please introduce yourself, I am Tang Ning from the Intelligence Section of the Secret Academy."

"Chen Fan of Yuanyi Hall."

"Yang Yunzhi, Secretary Department of Qingxuan Palace."

"Xuandedian town government department Yang Yuan."

"Xu Tao, the department directly under the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

"Qian Yi from the Mountain Guard Section of the Foreign Ministry."

Among the six, except for Tang Ning, Yang Yunzhi, Yang Yuan, and Chen Fan were all at the middle stage of foundation establishment, while Xu Tao and Qian Yi were at the early stage of foundation establishment.

The aurora boat traveled for less than an hour and arrived at Tianshui Lake.

Tianshui Lake is located in South China, about seven or eight hundred miles away from the Zongmen.

The entire lake stretches up and down for dozens of miles, with steep mountains on both sides, and the stream in it is shrouded in a blue light curtain, covering an area of ​​about ten miles. This is the place where the flame birds are raised.

Flamebirds like to eat fish, so they must be bred in lakes to breed. There are no large lakes near Luoyun Mountains, and Tianshui Lake is the closest lake to Qianyizong.

The aurora boat landed in front of the light curtain, and everyone jumped off the dharma boat. With a wave of Peng Wanli's hand, the talisman disappeared into the light curtain.

After a while, a gap was formed in the light curtain, and two rays of light flashed inside, revealing the figure of a burly man and a man with a dark complexion. .”

Peng Wanli nodded slightly, and went straight into the room. Everyone filed in, and there were flying flame birds everywhere. In the lake, on the pavilions, and in mid-air, their figures were everywhere.

Within a ten-mile radius of the light curtain, there are countless pavilions, and about every mile, there is a disciple who sits quietly and closes his eyes to practice.

There are smoke curling up around the pavilions, and the Flamingo doesn't like the atmosphere of fireworks, so the place where you meditate and set off fireworks can prevent the Flamingo from disturbing you.

Everyone came to a hall, and Peng Wanli went to the seat and said, "From now on, Tang Ning, a disciple of the intelligence station, will be in charge of Tianshui Lake. Cheng Wu, Zhang Chong, you two need to assist him in handling the corresponding affairs."

"Yes." The two replied.

"You have to be more prepared. If the demon sect attacks, notify the sect immediately. If something happens, Tangning, you are the only one in the sect to ask questions."

"Disciple understands," Tangning replied.

Peng Wanli gave a few more instructions, and then he went out of the hall, and everyone sent him outside the formation. Seeing that the light was gone, he returned to the formation.

Tangning asked, "Junior Brother Cheng, how many disciples are there in total?"

Cheng Wu replied: "Originally there were three foundation-building monks and twenty disciples. The former demon sect attacked and killed and injured a few people. The two of us were originally disciples who came to support us, because Senior Brother Wang and Junior Brother Chen were guarding this place. Both of them died in the battle, Junior Brother Xu was wounded again, and returned to the sect to cultivate, so we sent the two of us to guard here temporarily."

Tangning said, "How many people did the Demon Sect dispatch in total?"

"There are about seven or eight people, all of whom are Foundation Establishment monks."

"Did they break through the formation?"

"No."

"Then why are there so many casualties?"

Cheng Wu replied: "According to Senior Brother Xu, the Demon Sect came here quietly late at night, and everyone was unprepared. After the two sentry disciples were killed, the Demon Sect attacked the formation from all sides. Senior Brother Wang immediately informed the news through the sound transmission formation. Zongmen."

"But the Demon Sect's offensive became more intense. Senior Brother Wang was afraid that the formation would be breached if it could not support the sect's support, so he led Junior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Xu, and wanted to go out to resist for a while. Unexpectedly, the Demon Sect was prepared for it, and the three were ambushed. Wang Brother, Brother Zhou was killed, and Brother Xu was injured and fled."

Tangning asked, "Did you catch those Demon Sect monks?"

"No, after they killed Senior Brother Wang and Junior Brother Zhou, they had already fled. When we arrived, they had already disappeared."

"Junior Brother Chen, do you know how many flame birds there are in Tianshui Lake?"

Chen Fan replied: "Now there are about [-] bred."

"Should all these [-] be sent to Duanjishanfang City?"

"Of course not, otherwise how can we continue to breed? Xingang only has a quota of [-]. According to the contract signed with the chamber of commerce, we must send these [-] flame birds to their chamber of commerce within [-] years. This sect is responsible for providing [-] Thousands of Flame Birds will be delivered in three installments within [-] years, and next year we only need to send the last batch of [-] Flame Birds."

Tangning nodded and said, "Junior Brother Cheng, can the central disks of the large formation and the central disks of the sound transmission formation be with you?"

Cheng Wu flipped his hand and handed over the central array disk to him.

Tangning took over the center of the big formation, and passed the sound transmission disk to Chen Fan: "Junior Brother Chen will take care of the sound transmission formation, and I am only in charge of this big formation. From now on, if you want to enter and leave the big formation, just say hello to me." That is, Junior Brother Zhang, please call all the disciples here."

"Yes." Zhang Chong took the order and left.

Not long after, all the disciples in the formation had assembled in front of the hall. Tang Ning came to them and said, "Now the Demon Sect is raging, and the former attacked this place, killing Senior Brother Wang and Senior Brother Zhou. There is also lax defense, and now Tang is ordered by the sect to guard this place and advance and retreat with you."

"In order to prevent the Demon Sect from attacking us again, and we are caught off guard, I intend to divide all the disciples into four teams, with five people as a team, and build five watchtowers outside, with ten miles as a pavilion. If the Demon Sect attacks, Then use fireworks as the name."

"Junior Brother Cheng, Junior Brother Zhang, Junior Brother Xu, and Junior Brother Qian, the four of you will each lead a team and defend outside, one round per month."

"Yes." The crowd responded.

Tangning led the crowd out of the formation, built five hundred-foot-tall watchtowers, and built several wooden houses behind the pavilions. After finishing their work, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

.....................

Qin Chuan, Xushu Mountain, in front of the majestic cave in the Youmei Sect's great formation, a flash of light shot towards him, revealing the figure of a middle-aged man with a tiger's body and a bear waist, with a beard and a beard. , the sound transmission talisman passed through the thick fog.

Not long after, the dense fog surged, and a ray of light flashed out from inside, revealing a fair complexion, a tall and straight man, he bowed and saluted: "Master Mo, Master invites you to enter."

The two entered the inner room one after the other. Inside, there are crisscross paths, exotic flowers and plants, pavilions, pavilions, countless gardens and waterside pavilions, and there are elk wandering around and flying cranes.

Those who come and go are all beautiful maidservants in white gauze skirts.

The two of them walked through several criss-cross passages, and came to an elegantly decorated room. Inside, a short, fat man with short hands and feet and white hair on his sideburns was sitting cross-legged on the futon.

"Senior Brother Zheng." The man surnamed Mo bowed and saluted.

"Junior Brother Mo is here, please sit down." Zheng Jiehuai smiled and clapped his hands.

A maid from the outside entered with a tray in both hands, placed it on the stone table, and quietly exited.

Zheng Jiehuai poured a glass for the two of them: "How would you like to taste this wine, Junior Brother Mo?"

The man surnamed Mo drank his drink and nodded: "Not bad."

Zheng Jiehuai drank a cup with a smile: "What's the matter, Junior Brother Mo?"

The man surnamed Mo said: "I just got the news that the Qianyi Sect has re-established a large camp in Yingxia Mountain, and there are four Jindan monks, Wei Xuande, Tong Quan'an, Cheng Shuimin and Jiang Yuhuan, the former head teacher, sitting in the camp."

"As expected."

The man surnamed Mo doubted: "I don't understand one thing. Brother Zheng has always advocated the peaceful development of Taoism and waited for the time to change. Why did he change his normal behavior this time and launch attacks on Qianyizong repeatedly?"
