It was not an easy task for a large army to set up camp, especially after Zhao Ran issued a strict order prohibiting disturbance of the people. Fortunately, there is Jinghai Temple on Lion Rock, and there is a ready-made military camp on each side of Hydrangea Mountain, which solves most of the problems.

The remaining more than 1,000 people are in the nearby restaurants, ancestral halls, and large families at the foot of the mountain, for this reason, Zhao Ran also specially told Lu Zhiyu, the abbot of Shangyuan County, and the temple of Jinghai Temple to act separately, to explain the reason to the head of the household and the owner of the place with the help, and to express gratitude to them for supporting the Daomen counterinsurgency.

Everyone knows that there is going to be a war soon, these places are actually uninhabited, and they have long been vacated, Lu Zhiyu and they can't find someone to thank them, and according to Abbot Zhao's instructions, they left a note to apologize. Of course, the note also indicated the house money of two taels of silver per day, and the arrears were signed by Zhao Zhiran.

It stands to reason that "it is the duty of every believer to assist Daomen in extinguishing the rebellion army" - Gu Tengjia said, but Zhao Ran himself made a small calculation: the money is not much, that is, a matter of dozens of taels or less than a hundred taels of silver, but how much credibility will be generated by the prestige brought to Daomen after it is passed out? Until now, he has not forgotten his original intention and mission as the abbot of Xuantan Palace, racking his brains to accumulate credibility bit by bit.

I really don't know what kind of impact it will have on credibility this time in the capital.

In the middle of the night, there was still a military discussion in the Jinghai Temple, and the place of the frontal attack was of course Yifeng Gate. In Zhang Luo's assessment, the defenders are not strong, there is no need to "repeat tricks", the dignified division can attack the dignified array, and the direction of the Shence Gate is handled by Luo Hong, and his task is to contain a group of defenders. In addition, a new combat direction has been added, which is the Sanshan Gate in the south. This is a temporary adjustment plan, and the change comes from the two battalion leaders of the 3,000 battalion - in the evening, led by Yan Shifan, the two battalion leaders have made up their minds anyway, and agreed to welcome the army into the city.

At that time, a partial division will enter Sanshanmen and flank the main force of the rebellious army hoarded in Yifengmen to the north: nearly 3,000 people in five battalions. The purpose of this battle is to disintegrate the main force of the defenders, not even to eliminate them, Zhao Ran believes that what needs to be eliminated is the leader Zhu Xianjian and other chief evils, as well as the henchmen and generals who lead the troops, and most of the defenders are actually co-followers or blind followers.

Zhao Ran sat next to him and listened, but did not interject, his mind had been in Yifeng Gate, according to the news received, Xuantan Palace Cold Prison Yuan, Jiang Gaogong, Zhang Juzheng and some scattered cultivators hundreds of people were pulled to the city tower, ready to be held hostage by Zhu Xianjian. According to Zhu Xianjian's statement, Zhao Zhiran was to be asked to enter the city in person to "lead people", of course, Zhao Ran would definitely not be able to come back after receiving people.

This is a very severe test of human nature, if Zhao Ran does not enter the city, he will not necessarily be condemned in his conscience, but he will definitely have a knot in his cultivation mind.

Zhao Ran was waiting now, and at three o'clock in the morning, he finally waited for the letter sent by Zhu Xianjian, and it was indeed as Yan Shifan said, Zhu Xianjian asked him to enter the city to receive people. Looking at this letter, it was actually a holy decree, Zhao Ran couldn't help but be angry.

Gu Tengjia also read this holy decree, others may not be familiar with it, but he is more familiar with the holy decree, and immediately smiled: "It is said that the Son of Heaven has been placed under house arrest, it should be true to see the situation, the seals are all right, even the signatures are very similar, vivid." I heard that King Qi is good at imitating other people's handwriting, and when I saw it today, I was really good at it. “

Zhao Ran ignored this "holy decree" and continued to wait quietly......

At the beginning of the hour, the archmage of the Manifestation Palace, the amorous swordsman Lin Ayu came out of the place where he lived, and quietly went to the city downstairs to watch the soldiers of the Taoist priests of the Xuantan Palace.

Lin Ayu knocked the melon seeds into the courtyard, as the backbone of the upper three palaces, Lin Ayu has a treatment worthy of his identity, he can enter and leave almost all important places at will, including here, of course.

He greeted the Jindan monk who was in charge of guarding the custody: "Shuidao people, are you seven-star monks guarding here?"

The waterway man nodded, and didn't say anything, he just had this cold temperament, and Lin Ayu didn't care. The Fire Dao man next to him was much easier to deal with, and took over: "These people are very important, so His Highness specially asked the seven of us to take strict care of them. What's the matter? Master Lin is going to go in for arraignment?"

Lin Ayu said frankly: "I can't talk about arraignment, I had some friendship with the Cold Prison Courtyard back then, and I saw that he might be used to sacrifice the flag tomorrow, so I wanted to reminisce about the old days, and it was not in vain to intersect." By the way, are the two Daoists healed?"

The fire man replied: "It's almost healed, this battle in the riverside fishing village is really dangerous, and he almost died." ”

Lin Ayu's curiosity grew: "I heard that the fire Dao people, your senior brother was injured by Zhao Fei's gun?

The Fire Dao Man couldn't help but be a little complacent: "At that time, there were masters of the Refining Void Realm who were plotting against us, using the method of divine consciousness attack. This is a master of the Realm of Refinement, what else can we do? Being able to retreat with all his body is already the result of a desperate battle. The seven of my brothers can fight against the refining masters, which can be remembered for a lifetime, and the experience and perception in it will not be experienced in a lifetime......"

Lin Ayu was not present at the time, he didn't understand the situation, but he didn't believe that the Seven Star Cultivator could "retreat" from the hands of the Refining Void Master, if it was really the Refining Void Master, he estimated that the other party was most likely merciful, and thus became the capital of the Fire Dao People's boasting.

After holding the fire Dao man in passing, Lin Ayu asked, "Why are there only the two of you?" What about Juheng Mountain, what about Zhao Fei's spear, and what about the three knives of the praying mantis?"

The Fire Dao man explained: "There are three shifts of guards, and the next shift is their turn, and now they are all meditating and cultivating in the back room." You also know that we have been seriously injured in the fight with the Void Master, and although it has been two months, we still haven't fully recovered, especially Juhengshan and Zhao Feigun, and our brains are still often confused. ”

"How long will it take their shift?"

"An hour. ”

"They're cultivating, we won't be arguing with them so loudly, right?"

"Haha, don't worry, no, it's not as quiet as in the upper three palaces, it's because they have set up a guardian talisman outside their house to temporarily isolate the sound. ”

"I see, two fellow Daoists, I plan to visit the prison. I have a little friend, and I know a loose cultivator who was arrested inside, well, the debt relationship, I want to go in and ask, to see if I can collect the debt, the two Taoist friends understand. ”

"Haha, I understand, I ...... just now"

As the fire man was talking, he saw Lin Ayu waving behind him, leaning against the wall at the corner and poking out a small head, looking cautiously here.

Shui Huo Erdao looked over and saw that this person looked like a child, no more than three feet tall, so he asked, "Master Lin, this is your home...... Huh?"

Lin Ayu said: "This is the East China Sea Scattered Xiu Qianxun Dao Tong, his mother is the third lady, more famous in the East China Sea, this child came to the Central Plains to play, a few days ago he was accidentally injured when fighting with Zhao Zhiran, and he only recovered today." When we went to Yuanfu Palace to save people, several of you didn't go, so I don't know. ”

Qianxun Dao Tong came closer, stretched out his hand and said hello to Shui Huo Erdao: "The two Dao are friendly. ”

Both Shui and Huo lowered their heads, and the Fire Dao man smiled: "Little friend." ”

The waterway man didn't speak, but his gaze softened a lot and nodded.
