Dragon Warrior

Chapter 38 The Battle of Chang'an ([-])
To the south of Jinchangfang, about a mile away from the Golden Wind and Rain Tower, is the famous Daci'en Temple, the ancestral home of the Consciousness-only Sect of Buddhism.

Xiao Jing left the Golden Wind and Drizzle Tower, ran all the way south, and suddenly came to the outside of the Great Mercy Temple.The Big Wild Goose Pagoda with four corners and seven floors and a height of nearly twenty feet was in sight. Without hesitation, Xiao Jing rushed into the temple.

Da Ci'en Temple was very famous in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Master Sanzang, an eminent monk, once gave lectures in the temple. It is said that the relics left by him after his death are still enshrined in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

However, after Meng Yuan entered the customs, he did not believe in the Buddhism of the Central Plains, but attached great importance to the Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism and the Taoism of the Central Plains. Temujin once invited Qiu Chuji of the Quanzhen School to ask questions and answers on the grassland, and achieved the reputation of eighteen sons traveling westward.The Da Ci'en Temple lost its inheritance during the war when Meng Yuan entered the pass, and the Buddhist lineage was cut off.

Although during the reign of Emperor Xianzong of the Yuan Dynasty, the contradiction between Buddhism and Taoism intensified, and a dispute broke out about "Huahu Jing" and "Laozi's 81 Huatu". Some improvements have been made, but due to the death of monks in Da Ci'en Temple, no one has come to rebuild the gate so far, and it has become a sightseeing place and resting place for people traveling from south to north.

Recently, the atmosphere in Guanzhong has been tense, and the people's hearts are panicked, and no one who is desperate dares to come to play at this time, so when Xiao Jing came in, it was quiet inside, and there was no one there.

He was just about to find a clean and shaded meditation room to rest for a while, when suddenly, seven or eight figures jumped into the temple in a row. The thin middle-aged man in the front was dressed in green clothes, and his figure was like a ghost. It was the Mingjiao blue-winged bat. Wang Wei smiled.

Xiao Jing was startled, raised his palms and raised his chest, staring at the person vigilantly, he hadn't forgotten that the old bat wanted to suck his blood earlier.

Wei Yixiao also found Xiao Jing, his complexion changed, but he didn't attack immediately.Seeing that his face was as pale as paper, and the corner of his mouth was still bleeding, it could be seen that the injury was not serious.

Following Wei Yixiao, other members of Mingjiao also arrived one after another.Xiao Jing cursed bad luck in her heart, this group of people can't go anywhere, they have to follow him closely, how could the Taoist give up if he didn't kill someone from the Ming Cult?I'm afraid the danger has not been lifted at all.

Xiao Jing nodded in agreement and wanted to leave again.Unexpectedly, before he left, there was another whoosh, and a figure stepped towards the air. Before the person arrived, his palms had already volleyed in the air. Also within the strike range.

Seeing that the Taoist came in such a hurry, everyone's expressions changed, and they all scattered to avoid it.

The Taoist forced everyone to disperse, landed on his feet, and said with a sneer: "Why don't you run away? It's your blessing that the old Taoist wants to kill you. People are mortal, and they can die in the hands of poor Taoists. You should be lucky. You should have been obedient long ago." Stretch out your head and go down to meet your Master Yi. Yi Zhengyuan almost killed the poor Dao back then, did he think that once he died, he would be able to get rid of this vendetta? What a delusion, Pindao wants to kill all his disciples and grandchildren , to destroy the power that he has worked so hard to fight for all his life, so that even if he dies, he can't rest in peace!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't know who this Taoist priest was, they didn't expect him to have a decades-long hatred with Mingjiao, and it was really difficult for Mingjiao to be missed by such a master day and night.

Xiao Jing felt a little gloating in his heart, this Mingjiao is really not easy, secretly a Cheng Kun wants to destroy Mingjiao day and night, and on the surface there is such a powerful enemy who wants to destroy their whole family, and it is all the leader who pokes the basket, but in the end he is cheated His subordinates, it can be seen that the previous two generations of leaders were capable of making troubles, and he even doubted whether they could survive until Xiao Zhang grew up under such circumstances.

Xiao Jing rolled her eyes, and quietly took a half-step forward, cupped her hands while taking precautions and said: "Senior, this junior is not only not a member of Ming Cult, but also has a lot of grievances with Ming Cult. The so-called incompatibility between good and evil, this junior also sees Ming Cult The middle-aged people have been displeased for a long time. This poisonous bat was going to catch the younger generation to suck blood before. I really can't help you, why don't you take a step ahead, so as not to disturb the senior's killing of the enemy Yaxing!"

When people in the Ming Cult heard this, all of them looked unhappy. If there were no such people, Xiao Jing had no doubt that these people would immediately get angry.

But he didn't care, all of this was done by people from the Ming Cult, and he was the most wronged. Moreover, Wei Yixiao caught him drinking blood, and he always remembered it. If it weren't for his strength, he would be a dead body Mummy.

Besides, as a member of the righteous way of martial arts, Xiao Jing's buttocks have always been sitting upright, and he has never had the idea of ​​linking up with Mingjiao and having both ways.

Once this position is wavered, it will not be so easy to clear it up. It may take countless bloody plots to restore it. As a righteous hero with a bright future, he can't do things that destroy his future.

Leader Xiao Zhang and Young Hero Linghu did this kind of thing with gusto, but it's a pity that there are often people inside and outside, and in the end, they should be killed and beaten.

It is undeniable that the Demon Sect has some bold men, but their bold personality does not mean that they are good people. Look at Wei Yixiao who drank human blood, Xie Xun who killed innocent people and passed his pain on the weak, and raped Ji Xiaofu. Yang Xiao, you can know that everyone in Mingjiao is not completely wronged for calling for beatings. Xiaozhang leader wants to protect them, but also wants to build a good relationship with Zhengdao. Way, once he leaves, Mingjiao's situation will not be as good as before.

Let's look at the friends that Linghu Shaoxia made, the prostitute Tian Boguang who insulted people's innocence and ruined people's reputation, Linghu Shaoxia cited him as a confidant.The murderous, scheming Xiang Wentian has an inseparable relationship with him, and is even willing to be used by him.As for the teacher who has the grace of nurturing, on the contrary, they are veiled and secretive. Not only are they unwilling to take the responsibility of the chief disciple, but they always discredit the teacher, making the Huashan faction who is already in a difficult situation worse. To be honest, even if If it wasn't Lao Yue, if he changed the head, I'm afraid he would be expelled from the sect as well.

Xiao Jing didn't like the behavior of these two people. Since the position has already been determined, he should go straight and do what should be done.

Leader Zhang pursues perfection everywhere, hoping for peace in the martial arts world, and fighting against the Tartars together, but if everyone puts down their swords, is this Jianghu still called Jianghu?
As soon as he entered the rivers and lakes, he couldn't help himself. In Xiao Jing's understanding, the rivers and lakes should be a vanity fair full of joy and hatred, full of swords and swords.Zhang Wuji himself disregarded the blood and deep hatred, so he also asked everyone else to be like him, which is naturally impossible.

To be honest, Xiao Zhang's leader seems to be indifferent, open-minded and kind, but in Xiao Jing's view, this indifferent and open-minded approach is close to indifference.The enmity between the parents and the death of each other, Duke Xiang avenged the enmity of the ninth generation, and the Spring and Autumn Period was a big one.

Unless they are really incapable, most people will not tolerate talking and laughing at Yan Yan with their enemies, but Zhang Wuji is fine, he has practiced peerless martial arts, but he has never killed an enemy.Hu Qingniu continued his life and taught him all his medical skills, which can be described as a rebirth of kindness, but Hu Qingniu and his wife were killed by Granny Jinhua (the original book), and Zhang Wuji didn't even say a word of justice to him.Xiao Zhao went away to Persia for him, and died alone, but how much is Xiao Zhang thinking about her again?

Xiao Jing originally had the opportunity to befriend him, but he didn't do it.It's really unnecessary. If you help him, he may not be grateful. If you offend him, he will not take revenge on you. If this is the case, why bother?

These thoughts just flashed in his mind, Xiao Jing did not hesitate to leave the Ming Cultist aside, and actively moved closer to the Taoist, hoping that the Taoist would not be interested in him, so that he would escape from the unwarranted disaster.Anyway, he thought he had no enmity with Taoists, and Fan didn't want to beat people to death for the people of Mingjiao.

The Taoist said with a half-smile: "You are a cunning boy, you killed so many monks, do you want to write it off? Do you think that the poor have such a big heart?"

Xiao Jing said: "Those monks are not senior's subordinates, why bother to stand up for them, you and I are both from the Central Plains martial arts, why bother to hurt our peace because of a few barbarian lamas."

The Taoist smiled sinisterly and said: "These lamas don't care about the life and death of poor Taoists, but the identity of the kid you threw downstairs is not simple. His master has some friendship with poor Taoists. He is in your hands. I have suffered such a big loss, if I don't stand up for him, I will not be able to explain it when I meet his master in the future. Boy, I think you are quite pleasing to the poor, so I plan to save you until the end before killing you. It's best to pray that these devil cubs last longer."

Xiao Jing smiled wryly, and secretly sighed that she didn't read the almanac when she went out.

The master of the young lama must also be a very good person. Listening to their conversation, this person will not appear in three to five years, but the implication is that in three to five years, that person will come out of the mountain .

Xiao Jing was thinking about something, when suddenly there was loud clattering at the gate of the temple, everyone looked up, and saw a puff of smoke rising straight into the sky, and a raging fire broke out in the vestibule building dozens of meters away.Some inflammable objects were placed in the house in the temple, and the flames ignited immediately, and spread toward everyone at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Taoist priest's face suddenly changed, he no longer cared about the cat and the mouse, he raised his palms, and swept the Mingjiao people with mighty force.

The people of the Ming Cult were not surprised but happy. With such a fire, there must be fierce fire fuel to help out.Yang Xiao said loudly: "Everyone hold on, you are the brothers of Raging Fire Banner, with the Five Elements Banner to support you, we only need to delay for a while, and we will definitely find a way to get out."

The others also saw a ray of hope, and all of them showed joy, and with the remaining courage, they stood up to meet the Taoist.

After a while, not only the front yard, but buildings in all directions were ignited with raging flames, heat waves rolled in, and the temperature in the air rose rapidly.

Xiao Jing was anxious, and immediately ran towards a place where the fire was weak. Unexpectedly, just a few steps away, a strong wind came from the side. Contrary to the heat wave, this strong wind was icy cold. Wherever it passed, heat flowed in the air. Falling at a speed that can be seen by the body, after the strong wind passes, it leaves a place of frost.

Xiao Jing saw that the Taoist priests had reached such a pass, and wanted to wipe out all the Ming Cultists and himself, so angry that he almost cursed.Now that the way to escape is blocked, Xiao Jing has no choice but to turn around and defend the enemy with the Mingjiao, while thinking of other ways.

Only when we really face the Taoist, can we know how terrible he is. Right now, there are soaring fires in all directions in the west, and the temperature in the air is unbearable. The chill envelops.The Taoist priest flapped his palms in all directions, and where his hands passed, bursts of white frost fell, spreading a layer on the ground in the blink of an eye. What was even more frightening was that after the frost had condensed, in the scorching sun of June, the surrounding area was covered with frost. There was a raging flame, but it didn't melt, but gave off a slight chill, causing the temperature within a few feet to drop sharply, and everyone seemed to be in the cold winter of March and September.

The Taoist priest's palm strength was really too strong, he made a move with all his strength at this moment, none of the crowd dared to take a half-stroke, so they had to fight desperately, in just a few breaths, they almost survived several times, the situation was extremely dangerous.

Xiao Jing pushed his divine illumination skills to the extreme, turned into a phantom, and avoided the Taoist's palms with all his heart.Fortunately, the Taoist's main focus was on the people of the Ming Cult, and he seemed to remember what he said earlier, he didn't kill Xiao Jing immediately, but if he didn't want to find a way, he would die sooner or later.

When everyone was fighting endlessly, the ground suddenly rumbled and shook, and then a big hole collapsed, and a passage appeared unexpectedly.

A group of men in yellow clothes ran out one after another from the passage. Behind the man in yellow clothes, there were more than [-] men in black clothes and [-] men in white clothes. The three leaders shouted loudly, and they formed a strange formation.

Yin Tianzheng said excitedly: "It's the brothers from Houtu, Ruijin, and Hongshui Three Banners who have arrived, and everyone has been saved."

The envoy of the Houtu Banner was named Yan Yuan, who was short and fat, and shouted to the Mingjiao crowd: "Everyone, step back, leave this place to us!"

The people of the Ming Cult heard the words and moved towards the secret passage while fighting. The Taoist could not allow them to get away, swinging his sleeves, and chased after him. Suddenly there was a roar behind him. The Taoist turned his head and saw dozens of axes shining with cold light. Like locusts, they all flew towards him. It turned out that Rui Jinqi had resorted to housekeeping skills.

The Taoist snorted coldly, waved his sleeves in the air, the strong wind blew past, and the axes flew in the air like hitting a steel plate in unison, and fell to the ground with a click.The complexion of the Mingjiao Five Elements Banner changed drastically. Tang Yang waved his hand solemnly as the Hongshui Banner held the flag, and more than [-] black-clothed men quickly stepped forward to replace the Huirui Gold Banner man.Everyone in Hongshui Banner was holding a spray canister, more than [-] people sprayed at the Taoist priest, and the black water arrows rushed towards the Taoist priest like poisonous snakes.

Before the poisoned water got close to him, it gave off a foul smell. What's more, it started to smoke as soon as it came into contact with the air, which was obviously extremely poisonous.

The Taoist's eyes turned cold, not daring to be careless, he stretched out both palms, and suddenly slapped them in the air.A gust of wind swept across, and under the palm of the Taoist, the poisonous water quickly condensed into hard ice cubes as soon as it came out of the spray tube, and then they all turned around and reflected back at a faster and fiercer speed. The sound of popping was accompanied by a scream, More than [-] people in Hongshuiqi were either killed by ice piercing through their vitals, or poisoned by the huge poison in the ice. Only Tang Yang flashed fast and only escaped.

But after a few breaths of delay, all the members of the Ming Cult got into the tunnel one after another and disappeared.Seeing that the goal of the Five Elements Banner had been achieved, the people of the Five Elements Banner did not dare to fight. The thick earth flag was in front, and after the sharp gold flag was broken, they hurried to the tunnel.Seeing that the Mingjiao people ran away, the Taoist was furious immediately, and clapped his hands repeatedly, wanting to vent his anger on those people with the Five Elements Banner.

But seeing the people behind the sharp golden flag screaming again and again, turning into living popsicles under the Taoist's hands, even the flag bearer Zhuang Zheng was no exception.

The Taoist solved all the people of the Ruijin Banner, and found that the people of the Houtu Banner had drilled into the tunnel, and blocked the tunnel casually. He was even more angry, and with a flick of his hand, Zhuang Zheng turned into an ice crystal like broken glass .Under the scorching flames, the ice cubes on the rest of the people in Ruijin Banner began to melt. At the same time, their bodies also melted inch by inch with the ice cubes, and finally turned into a pool of smudges.

Seeing that there was no living person around, the Taoist found a random direction and passed through the sea of ​​flames. Under the blazing flames, there was not a single trace of scorched marks on his body.
