Tao and Heaven

Chapter 156: The Demon Saint of the Bashen, the Contemporary Sword Master of Zhejian Mountain
The dust has settled, but the aftermath is yet to be determined.

The woman on the green mountain had a thoughtful look on her face, the golden-winged Roc thousands of feet in the sky had solemn eyes, and the Demon King Tu Shanyun was extremely stunned.

"died."

Tu Shanyun began to sweat for no apparent reason. She was confident that she could defeat Gu Wen with one move, but the other party had only a limited foundation in Taoism.

The four-fifth Dao base versus the seventy-sixth Dao base, a full four levels apart.

Is the magic sword really so magical that it can transcend common sense?
He couldn't figure it out, but Gu Wen's strength was unquestionable, and he couldn't imagine what his future would be like when he grew up.

Especially when he reached the ninth level of Dao foundation, the watershed between the True Lord and the Heavenly Lord, no one could suppress others with their realm. What kind of strength would Gu Wen have by then, and who could stop him?

This person, like the goddess, is a rare genius that is rare in a thousand years, and he is even more difficult to deal with than the goddess.

He must be killed!

Tu Shanyun developed an uncontrollable murderous intent, pure murderous intent towards Gu Wen.

Suddenly, a ray of divine thought came from the sky, the divine thought of a demon saint.

Tu Shanyun recognized this aura. He was a demon saint two generations older than her and the former ancestor of the Bashe Cave Heaven. He escaped the disaster due to seclusion.

"Tushan Demon Emperor Yun, I am willing to lend you a helping hand."

Tu Shanyun asked, "Who asked you to come?"

The divine thought did not answer, but everything was self-evident.

But the half-immortal was so confident in his sister that he brought down the two demon saints. Even if she was protected by the goddess, she could still die if she was not careful.

The Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor Hall.

A burst of hearty laughter was heard.

"Interesting, really interesting. Killing an enemy four levels higher, and one person has three immortal methods."

Yun Miao looked at Huayang's stern face with a smile. It didn't matter if the other party didn't react at this moment, because Gu Wen might really chop off Huayang's head now.

It was just for fun before, but now Huayang is in great danger.

He warned: "Don't even think about doing anything dirty. I'll be keeping an eye on you."

Hua Yang replied coldly: "Don't judge me with your mean heart. If he can kill me, it will be a blessing for Dao Sect. It doesn't matter if Master Qingcang is not here."

hum!
The void vibrated, a hint of sword intent came, and only a rough voice was heard.

"Two big noses, I heard that you've been in a tough situation recently. Do you need my help from Zhejianshan?"

Upon hearing that the military strategist wanted to help first, Yun Miao and Hua Yang looked calm, without any disturbance.

"You old sword fanatic, you don't get up early without profit. Tell me what benefit you want?"

"I heard that there is a young man in the mortal world in the Dao Sect."

"roll."

Yun Miao's answer was concise and to the point. Hua Yang said coldly as always: "Even if I move your Zhejian Mountain to Sanqing Mountain, it won't work."

Unexpectedly, the divine thought was not angry at all, and said with a smile: "It's not impossible, but the Three Pure Ones must open the Four Pure Ones for me in Zhejian Mountain."
-
The dispute ended with the death of the enemy.

The people who deserved to die have died, and the forces behind the scenes who deserved to take action have also taken action. At least now no one will continue to suffer for a dead person.

Gu Wen felt everyone's gazes withdrawn and he let out a breath. Then his arms and other parts of his body began to ache slightly.

When he looked down, he saw that the base of his palm was bloody and cracked, and blood was constantly flowing out. Even with the healing method, it was difficult to stop the bleeding.

Wisps of green light are faintly visible, which are the traces left by the feathered serpent's magical power.

But his hands can still move, and his actions are still not affected in any way.

The Xuanpin magical power can always keep the body in peak condition, but I wonder if this will be like losing the sense of pain, causing the cultivator to lose judgment of his condition?

Gu Wen thought about it, and then actively practiced the healing technique Mianxi Gong to suppress the injury, and the blood stopped flowing out.

Yu Hua took a closer look at the injuries on Gu Wen's hands and said nothing more because they were only flesh wounds.

Being injured is not always a bad thing. Knowing the pain will make you more cautious next time.

Gu Wen leaned over and split the snake's body open, and took out the demon pill from it with his mind. Ao Tang approached and asked, "Do you want to take this demon body away?"

"Can the guardian take it away?"

"I can just change my body shape, but it will cause my escape technique to become slower."

Yu Hua said, "It's okay. No one will attack us in the short term, and Gu Wen is in need of spiritual medicine right now."

Ao Tang no longer hesitated, dived into the water and disappeared, and then a huge black shadow appeared under the water.

Wow!

With splashing water, a white snake larger than the green python emerged from the water, bit the python's body that was split in half, and swallowed it into its stomach bit by bit.

The Dharma Protector is really a must-have beast for home and travel.

Gu Wen asked: "What kind of divine beast is the guardian?"

Yu Hua replied, "Wanxiang can transform into anything, and each form can cultivate a magical power. But it is said that he was injured when he was young, which caused his foundation to be severely damaged and stagnated in the Mahayana stage. The only magical powers he has left are escape, alchemy, and Sumeru mustard seed."

In just a few words, the green python's body was quickly swallowed up completely, and then the white snake dived into the water.

When it stood up again, it had turned into a donkey with a big belly. Gu Wen could see that Ao Tang liked this form very much.
-
Nanchun Army at the ferry. Jiang Jucai returned with the captured civilians. The Nanchun Army commander personally welcomed him, and the soldiers in the barracks lined the streets to welcome him. The warm cheers shook the earth.

To celebrate the battle, a grand banquet was held in the military camp.

Under the dim candlelight, the soldiers dispersed one after another, leaving only a group of generals.

The atmosphere became somewhat silent, and then several Jiang family members walked in. One of them shouted, "Sir, something has happened to the elder. Please go back and take a look."

Jiang Jucai drank a lot, but he was still conscious.

A strange look flashed in his eyes, and he stood up and bowed, saying, "Something happened at home, and I want to go back to visit. I hope the Marshal will approve it."

"Filial piety comes first among all virtues, but I have a few words to say to Captain Jiang. It doesn't matter when I leave after I finish speaking."

Song Ziyi did not let him go. He stood up and poured wine for Jiang Jucai himself, saying, "Captain Jiang is truly a brave man. He personally led the troops to defeat the demons. Once the news of this battle spreads, our Nanchun Army will surely gain great momentum, and it will be just a matter of time before we capture the county capital."

"Captain, what credit do you want for such great achievements?"

"It's all my responsibility."

Jiang Jucai felt a chill in his heart, then he stood up, bowed and said, "On the contrary, I am guilty of leading troops to fight against the demons without military orders. This should be a capital crime."

"It's a capital crime. It turns out Captain Jiang also knows about it."

Song Ziyi looked at him with a smile, and the murderous intent in his eyes faded a little.

If you take the initiative to admit your mistakes, there is still hope, but if you continue to act recklessly, you must not be allowed to stay. As for giving up the Nanchun Army, no one will let go until they are on the verge of death.

Profit is a poison that makes people salivate.

The expressions of the three Jiang family members who came in changed. They all reached for the daggers at their waists, and the generals around them also looked grim.

As soon as the cup was smashed as a signal, eight hundred swordsmen chopped Jiang Jucai into minced meat.

Jiang Jucai held down a cousin, then stepped forward and drank the wine in the glass, saying, "My father taught me since I was a child that when I see injustice, I should draw my sword to help. Saving people is like putting out a fire. If the commander-in-chief wants to kill me, then punish me by military law. I have no regrets."

Song Ziyi's killing intent faded, and he also picked up the wine glass and drank it all, saying with a smile: "Captain Jiang is very righteous, so I guess my father must be a man of eight feet tall."

My father?

Jiang Jucai couldn't help but think of his short father, and the saying of helping others when seeing injustice was taught by Gu Wen.

He also laughed and said, "My father is naturally eighteen feet tall."

"I heard that your father is a local rich man and a six-inch kid."

An inappropriate voice appeared. The speaker was a descendant of the Nanshui family. He had always been at odds with Jiang Jucai and was targeting him only because of their different backgrounds.

This person was also arranged by Song Ziyi. He looked at Jiang Jucai with interest.

If he dares to get angry, he can stay.

If he is not angry, he should not be kept.

Jiang Jucai's prestige is too great now. If he can lead troops out today, he can lead troops here tomorrow.

There are two most important aspects of starting a rebellion. One is to be able to fight, at least not to be easily suppressed by the government. The other is to be famous, so that people will come to join you.

From the helpless common people to the landlords and gentry, no one would resist rebellion. Everyone was just afraid of being beheaded.

Now the number of people dying of starvation is tens of millions times higher than those dying from beheading, so they simply started a rebellion.

There are two major hot spots in the South Water: one is the killing of officials, and the other is the evil spirit disaster.

The Nanchun Army was able to become powerful because of the right time, right place and right people. If the imperial court had not imposed heavy taxes in recent years, they would have been able to make a living by relying on the wealth of Nanshui. If the evil spirits had not appeared, the number of refugees from Nanshui would not have been too large.

The combination of the two immediately pushed the local rebels like the Nanchun Army to the forefront, making them one of the most powerful rebels in the entire Daqian, and their name became widely known.

Others who rebelled would not be able to kill the demon and offer sacrifice to the heavens. Jiang Jucai was undoubtedly the signature of the Nanchun Army, or perhaps he had been since the beginning.

Everyone was waiting for the rebellion, but this silly boy fought fiercely and was particularly good at fighting. With victory after victory, a group of old-fashioned people continued to add glory to him, and the spirit of the entire Nanchun Army was different.

This is what rebellion is like: a group of country bumpkins who know nothing, a leader who relies only on recklessness and courage, and a little bit of luck.

But this world ultimately depends on context.

Jiang Jucai was extremely brave, popular, and righteous, but so what? He didn't have an immortal master, but he did, so he was the commander-in-chief.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths.

"Kill him and I'll protect you."

A gust of wind sounded, and Jiang Jucai's ears moved slightly. The anger that he had just suppressed suddenly surged up uncontrollably.

He raised his head to glance at the man, then suddenly pulled out the short knife from the Jiang family disciple beside him, and strode forward. Just as the guard was about to draw his knife, he was slapped down by him.

He grabbed the young man from a noble family by the neck and stabbed him with a knife, causing blood to gushed out like a fountain.

The young man from aristocratic family fell on the table with a thud. Everyone around him was stunned, even Song Ziyi was a little surprised.

How dare he kill someone?

"Jiang Jucai!"

Song Ziyi came back to his senses, and laughed in anger: "Do you really think I dare not kill you?"
