"The generals of the border town have private relationships with the tribes in the northern border?" Zhao Mi was puzzled: "What does this have to do with Yanran Mountain?"

Qian Shaobai replied: "Yanran Mountain Dojo is adjacent to northern Xinjiang. Although it is a sect of cultivating immortals, it incorporates the techniques of northern Xinjiang shamans. It can communicate with animals and is especially good at taming horses. Therefore, many Yanran Mountain sects People are confiscated by the generals of border towns. But since it is to tame horses, there is a lot to say about where the horses come from."

Zhao Mi said clearly: "The generals of the border town went to the tribes in the northern border to buy horses. The northern border is bitterly cold and the products are scarce, and there is an urgent need to do business with the middle land. The generals of the border town use this to seek personal gain, and even raise private soldiers and family generals, right? ?”

Qian Shaobai said with a wry smile: "Exactly, and...over the years, many tribes in northern Xinjiang hoped to be attached to the Xiong Kingdom. The imperial court originally planned to place them in the northern border counties, so as to enrich the border areas and serve as a screen against Beidi. But when things were done, they were full of loopholes and caused some rebellions among the subordinate tribes."

"If they are not of my race, their hearts must be different." Zhao Shu said: "The Rongdi in the northern border herd livestock and live by water and grass. Their livelihoods are very different from those in the middle land. Let them settle in one place and work hard. It will definitely be easier to survive. Chaos."

Qian Shaobai sighed: "Yes, right now, the imperial court can only allocate money, food and cloth to appease the tribal chiefs, and at the same time send officials to educate them."

Zhao Mi didn't comment too much, he understood that taking in foreign people and enlightening them would not be accomplished overnight, I'm afraid there won't be any results in a few decades, and just relying on killing will not be able to make the people agree.

"The northern Xinjiang tribes went south to join, so Xuanming Kingdom just sit back and watch?" Zhao Mi asked in turn.

Qian Shaobai shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "The emperor killed the dragon in the battle, and Xuan Ju died. Xiong Guo took advantage of the situation and swung an army to counterattack, and once captured Beiludu. Later, he set fire to the city and directly burned Beiludu into white ground. The kingdom of the underworld fell apart.

The various tribes in northern Xinjiang are doing their own thing, and it is still in chaos. It is far from the powerful army that Xuanju unified the northern border. Only a few tribes went south to plunder, which is not a concern. "

"Falling apart?" Zhao Mi fell into deep thought. Among the five kingdoms of Kunlun Continent, Xuanming Kingdom could be said to be the first to be interfered by the immortals from the lower realm. Kneading together, they aggressively invaded the south, and the people who passed by were devastated.

However, in the battle of Imperial Capital, both Xuanju and Nielong died in the battle, and even the elite troops from various tribes in the northern border were buried in the middle-earth battlefield.Its country is in name only, and it may be doomed to miss the competition in the future.

In Huaxu Kingdom, where there is also a fairy family involved in the world, because of the game calculations of all parties, Canghua Tianjun and Liang Tao fell one after another, causing a catastrophe to sweep across the east.

Today's Huaxu Kingdom wants to compete for hegemony in Kunlun Continent, at least it must first deal with Chiyundu, which occupies half of the country, and it also has no time to be distracted.

Now it seems that the Xian family's involvement in the world, intending to seize the power of the world by force, is not only difficult to succeed, but will cause a lot of chaos due to failure.

Since the in-depth conversation with Han Yuanzi, Zhao Mi will not simply think that the immortal family's involvement in the world is the cause of the disaster, but more because the immortal family's aura is widely involved. Once the body dies, chaos will follow. …

Zhao Mi suddenly understood that Han Yuanzi did not openly show his involvement in the world, perhaps because of this consideration.

The identity of the head of Shangjingzong, as well as the cultivation level of Shangjie Xiandao, doomed Han Yuanzi to bear a heavy burden and involve a lot of people. Once he died, the foundation of Shangjingzong would be shaken, and there would be no peace in Xiongguo.

And Han Yuanzi seems to be hiding away, but in fact he plays the role of a pillar, which is exactly in line with Zhao Shu's vision of the Dao Kingdom's master of heaven and earth.It's just that most people don't understand the important position of Han Yuanzi. The so-called good fighters have no great achievements, which is generally the case.

"By the way, Prime Minister Zuo asked me to ask Fellow Daoist Zhao, what are your plans for the future?" Qian Shaobai asked.

"Arrangements for the future?" Zhao Mi tapped his forehead. After losing Lingxiao, he was deeply confused about his future. Even if he wanted to find Zhenyuan Yufu and Lingxiao, he didn't know where to start.

"The Prime Minister Zuo sent you to ask, it must have been planned?" But Zhao Mi was not unaware of the current situation, he knew very well that he stayed in Tiancheng Mountain, apart from Shang Jingzong's intentional gesture of favor, he was also restrained in the mountains.

For You Xiong Guo, Zhao Mi can't simply be regarded as a help. The left minister, He Qingchen, is both wary of him and uses him.Originally, he planned to use the Heavenly Gate of Dunjia Mountain to win him over for a while, but it turned out to be counterproductive, so he was left in Tiancheng Mountain.

Qian Shaobai said: "Master Zuo said, I hope that fellow Daoist Zhao will move to the capital of the emperor, and discuss the inheritance of the officials of praise."

Zhao Shu frowned and said, "Inheritance of the Ceremony Officer? What exactly do you want to discuss, Mr. Zuo Xiang?"

"He didn't tell me, so I can't speculate casually." Qian Shaobai said.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Mi said: "Forget it, I will go, and I will ask Fellow Daoist Qian to lead the way later."

……

On the top of the Xuanzhao Peak, in the Patriarch Hall, Han Yuanzi looked at the tablets of the Patriarchs with his hands behind his back. The lamps and candles used for worship had not been removed, and a few wisps of green smoke floated from the incense burner on the altar.

"See the master." The four immortals came to the hall and saluted Han Yuanzi together.No matter how casual they are at ordinary times, they dare not show any disrespect to Han Yuanzi in front of the patriarch tablets at this moment.

Han Yuanzi turned around and motioned for everyone to sit down. He took the lead and said, "This year, I have called you back to the mountain. Apart from offering sacrifices to the ancestors, there are several important matters to discuss with you."

"I don't know how important it is?" Xuan Tugong asked.

"Zhao Shu opened the portal to the cave in Dunjia Mountain. I think everyone already knows about it." Han Yuanzi said: "I retreated for half a month a few days ago, but I didn't sense the location of the Zhenyuanyu Mansion. Afterwards, I checked the books in the gate, but I couldn't find it." The records related to this cave."

"Could it be that this Zhenyuanyu Mansion doesn't exist? It's just fabricated by Zhao Mi out of thin air?" Fang Yuanzi asked.

"No, that's indeed a fairy cave." Han Yuanzi said: "Although I only had a quick glance after I arrived, I can still sense the immortal spirit in the cave. And the sword issued by the cave itself Light, to expel Emperor Ruiding and Qianji Lingju from Liuhe. What do you all think about this matter?"

Xia Huanggong said: "Recently, I had a few in-depth talks with Zhao Shu about Zhenyuan Yufu and Zhenyuansuo. The magical function of Yun Qiankun itself matches the skill of opening up caves. However, I suspect that Jing Zhenjian also has the magical function of cutting holes in Liuhe.”…

Yi Zhenzi, who is proficient in swordsmanship, looked heavy: "Liuhe chisels holes and breaks the void. This is the vision of heaven and earth that was born when he ascended to immortality. It is absolutely difficult to use this kind of swordsmanship."

Xuan Tugong said: "This is not swordsmanship, but the power to open up the world."

Fang Yuanzi was puzzled and said: "But there is no reason, breaking the void and linking the inside and outside of the world, either a monk can prove the way of immortality, or the immortal family can lead the disciples to ascend, this must be done with the same cultivation base.

But the Zhenyuan Yufu still stays in the world, how to break the void?What's more, it is obviously unreasonable to expel Emperor Ruiding from Liuhe. "

"It's unreasonable for the cave to stay in the world." Han Yuanzi said: "It's like trying to drag a piece of wood into the water. The clean air in the cave and the dirty air in the world resist each other, and they can't return to chaos. This is extremely difficult to do. arrive.

In the caves that stayed in the world in the past, could it be that the immortal family had the will to make vows and could not let go of all living beings in the world.But according to Zhao Shu, Zhenyuan Yufu did not rule the immortal family in the past.This mystical law that maintains the operation of the cave is almost invincible. "

"What is the origin of that fairy family called Lingxiao?" Xuan Tugong asked.

"I've never heard of it." Han Yuanzi looked at Xia Huanggong: "Brother, have you seen Zhao Mi's Zhenyuan lock, have you seen anything?"

"I can only tell that this object came from the ancient fairy family." Xia Huanggong said: "But I have searched through the scriptures, but I can't find any people related to it."

"Strange." Xuan Tugong frowned and said, "Zhenyuan Yufu was able to expel Emperor Ruiding. Such a profound immortal technique, even the immortals in the sky, are rarely able to do it. That Lingxiao shouldn't be so obscure. generation."

"Zhao Shu may not know Lingxiao's true identity." Han Yuanzi said after a moment of contemplation: "But I think there may be another reason, but it's too unbelievable, and I don't dare to take it seriously."

"What's the reason?" the Fourth Immortal asked.

"The fairy family who opened up the Zhenyuanyu Mansion completely erased the traces of his existence in the world." Han Yuanzi put his chin in his hand: "I always felt that the Zhenyuanyu Mansion was not allowed to be invaded by outsiders. The Sanheng Lawyer resisted Jing Zhen's sword light, and sensed that the Zhenyuan Yufu even wanted to kill Zhao Shu, without any mercy... Or, in other words, there is no emotion at all in Dongtian Fadu."

Xuan Tugong is more concerned about another matter: "I heard that when you brought Zhao Mi back to Tiancheng Mountain, Junior Brother, he was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread. Could it be that even the Sanheng law can't stop the sharpness of Jing Zhenjian?" ?”

"I can't stop it." Han Yuanzi explained: "At the beginning I tried to deflect the sword light, but still part of the sword light passed through like mercury pouring down the ground, and went straight to Zhao Mi."

Xia Huanggong said: "This is indeed like a formation restriction that has been arranged in advance. If someone invades from outside, they will ignore it and launch an attack directly."

"But why does the master say that the immortal family who opened up the cave completely erased all traces of his existence?" Fang Yuanzi was very confused.

"I just vaguely have this feeling." Han Yuanzi said: "If you want to know the origin of Zhenyuan Yufu, I'm afraid you have to ask those ancient immortals for advice."

The four immortals looked at each other, Xuantu said openly: "Most of the ancient immortal families no longer communicate with the world, even if the sect master ascends to the upper realm, I'm afraid we won't be able to see those ancient immortal families."…

Xia Huanggong also said: "Furthermore, the patriarch of our sect has set a commandment that disciples are not allowed to return to the world after ascension. Now Shangjingzong is not ready yet."

Yi Zhenzi shouted and asked: "Sect Leader, it is at a critical time, do you want to give up the responsibility of the sect inheritance?"

"I won't do that." Han Yuanzi said sternly, "But since you guys are talking about the inheritance of the sect, let's use it as a starting point and have a good chat. Junior brother, those lay disciples you accepted in Wuyong County are What's going on? He Qingchen asked them to lead troops to encircle and suppress the Rising Sun Sect, but they didn't move?"

Yi Zhenzi was slightly taken aback, and then replied: "Does the head mean the Wuyong and Zhu clan? They want to guard against the Yaochi Kingdom's invasion, so naturally they can't leave at will."

"He Qingchen didn't ask them to transfer all the soldiers and horses, only one of them is needed to help encircle them." Han Yuanzi said: "Now Wuyong and Zhu clan don't listen to orders, He Qingchen is ready to punish them. But he Seeing that the Wuyong and Zhu family worshiped under your sect, you specifically explained to me, you know what to do, right?"

Yi Zhenzi said reluctantly: "Master, the Wuyong and Zhu family has guarded the country's borders for nearly a hundred years, so rashly punishing crimes, I'm afraid it will chill everyone's hearts."

"Plundering business trips, raising pirates' self-respect, killing good men and taking meritorious service, and taking people into slavery, don't tell me that you don't know anything about the things that the Wuyong and Zhu clan did." Han Yuanzi looked cold: "It's hard to make a living in the frontier army town. He Qingchen can turn a blind eye to playing some extrajudicial tricks, but he doesn't listen to orders, which is a big taboo, Wuyong and Zhu are not worthy to be disciples of Shangjingzong."

Yi Zhenzi argued: "They are just lay disciples, and it is not appropriate to force too much. I will go to Wuyong County myself later and reprimand them well."

"Layman disciples, this is where the trouble lies." Han Yuanzi said: "I have considered for a long time, and I always feel that when the master created the title of layman disciples, it seemed that the sect's inheritance flourished for a while, but it also made the sect popular. Greatly contaminated.

In recent years, how many people in the Xiong Kingdom have used the name of Shangjingzong's lay disciples to act recklessly and seize, causing the local people to suffer terribly.It's impossible for you to be completely ignorant of these things, right? "

The expressions of the four fairies were all gloomy, and Han Yuanzi continued: "In the past, Emperor Tianxia, ​​there were quite a few people who worshiped immortals and admired Taoism. But it caused the sect to be involved in the disputes of the chaotic world, so there were not a few sect members who died.

Shangjingzong can continue to pass on, and it is more because other families are fighting each other, so we are lucky enough to avoid disaster.But do you think that the current Shangjingzong still has such good luck?Do you really not understand why so many fellow cultivators participated in the Rising Sun Sect's rebellion? "

Xia Huanggong stroked his beard and sighed: "Shangjingzong is too popular, and many lay disciples behave badly. In addition, we have more or less covered up, so that today will happen."

Xuan Tugong said: "The God of the Rising Sun Sect is no more than Xiao Xiaoxiao, He Qingchen has a good plan, and it has not become a serious problem."

"Brother, can't you let him go?" Han Yuanzi smiled wryly: "He Qingchen is not young, how many years do you think he can do? And you have seen the end of Huaxu Guo Chongxuan Pavilion."

"Is the head of the sect alarmist?" Xuan Tugong said with a serious expression, "Shangjingzong is in the middle to guard the integrity and protect the country and the people. How can it be compared with the Chongxuan Pavilion?"

"The downfall of the Chongxuan Pavilion is not just the result of the dissoluteness of the disciples?" Han Yuanzi shook his head and said, "One sect and one faction dominate the country. Even if we are upright, who can ensure that future generations will not change their minds? Some things have already begun. Seeing the signs, it is better to solve it as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble for future generations."
