Fang Zhixing and Zhou Botong hurried all the way, and after more than ten days, they had already returned to Zhongnan Mountain. Seeing the peaceful scene on the mountain, knowing that nothing had changed, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and put my mind at ease. On the way, the two of them had already found out that the Mongolian 20,000 troops were coming to Guanzhong, but the army was not as fast as the two of them.
When they arrived on the mountain, Fang Zhixing immediately went to see Liu Chuxuan, Qiu Chuji and others, and when the five of them saw Zhou Botong, they all paid a big salute. Zhou Botong was impatient with vulgarity, talked with a few people, and went to the mountains to run and play by himself, while Fang Zhixing stayed and asked about these days.
After careful inquiry, Fang Zhixing knew why the fifth son had the intention of launching forces in the rear. However, after many inquiries by the Quanzhen Sect, he knew that the Mongol Khan wanted to canonize the Quanzhen Sect and take charge of the Zhulu Taoism, so he had to make this decision. After all, if the Quanzhen Sect was canonized by Mongolia, it would be self-excluded from the Central Plains martial arts.
Hearing this, Fang Zhixing also knew in his heart, and told Wuzi about what he had inquired about along the way. When the fifth son heard that the Mongols might send a large army to attack Zhongnan Mountain, they were also shocked. According to the strength of the Quanzhen Sect, ordinary martial arts battles are not afraid, but fighting with a large army is absolutely impossible. Fortunately, after the last discussion, many people on Zhongnan Mountain have been dismissed, and those who remain are all vigorous people, and it is more convenient to evacuate. In this way, there is not much to lose. As for the martial arts masters such as the Golden Wheel Dharma King in the Mongolian army, there are Zhou Botong and Fang Zhixing, and there are also many first-class masters in the Quanzhen Sect, so naturally there is no big problem.
The six of them discussed it, roughly decided on a plan, and sent people to investigate diligently to see what the Mongolian side did. After discussion, Fang Zhixing stayed in Zhongnan Mountain. Sit here with Zhou Botong. However, he stayed for more than a month, and did not see the Mongol army attacking the mountain. After inquiry, it was learned that the Mongol troops had not completely decided on a strategy to deal with the Quanzhen Sect. It's still under discussion. According to Fang Zhixing's guess, there may be a desire to wait for Nemo Xing and others to recover from their injuries. See this. He had no choice but to stay in Zhongnan Mountain, either playing with Zhou Botong every day, or instructing Shen Qingchen and others, so that they could have more self-protection when the war came.
Among the seven sons of Quanzhen, Tan Chuduan died early, Ma Yu has also passed away, and only five people remain. After Ma Yu's death, Liu Chuxuan served as a teacher for half a year. He was handed over to Qiu Chuji to take over. The five sons are all old, and their energy is declining, and now although Qiu Chuji is still in charge of teaching, he is also a little powerless, so he wants to select outstanding disciples as soon as possible to take care of the worldly things in the teaching. Several people sent Zhen Zhibing and others to Xiangyang this time, so that they could succeed to the head of the sect smoothly after making meritorious contributions, but now the Mongolian side is seriously oppressed, and everything is complicated, but it cannot be delayed. Although there are still Song Daoan and Yin Zhiping talents in the teaching. But it is not as good as Zhen Zhibing's prestige, so they also sent people to let Yin Zhiping return to Nanshan as soon as possible.
said that Zhen Zhibing and Zhao Zhijing were ordered to escort Wang Qi back to Xiangyang. On the way, he accidentally met a man sent by the Mongolian army to search for Wang Qi. The enemy has a large number of people, although Zhen Zhibing and Zhao Zhijing have extraordinary martial arts, they are also difficult to defeat, seeing that they can't dodge, Zhen Zhibing handed over the Wang Qi to Zhao Zhijing and left him to block the enemy. Although his martial arts are extraordinary, he is no match for the large number of opponents, and after a hard battle, he was accidentally captured. Fortunately, the generals of the Mongolian soldiers were the old people Zhen Zhibing had seen when he preached to Genghis Khan in the desert with Qiu. I didn't bother him too much. Zhen Zhibing seized the opportunity and escaped by himself. went to look for Zhao Zhijing again. But he searched for a long time, but he couldn't find it. When I arrived in Xiangyang, I didn't hear any trace of Zhao Zhijing. I wanted to look carefully, but if I wanted to end up in danger of Nanshan, I could only explain to Guo Jing and others and go back to the mountain first.
On the way back to the mountain, Zhen Zhibing met the disciple sent by Qiu Chuji to find him, saying that he wanted him to return to the mountain and assist the fifth son in handling the affairs of the sect. Zhen Zhibing didn't dare to slack off, and even sped up a few points.
When a few people arrived at the Chongyang Palace, they saw Qiu Chuji and others, and they were discussing, when they suddenly saw a Taoist priest outside come in, and said loudly: "Qiyu is in charge of teaching real people, and there are guests arriving." ”
Qiu Chuji raised his eyebrows, remembering the news he had found out in the past few days, he didn't know the identity of the other party, and said, "Please!"
The Taoist priest turned around and went out, and led two men in. One is dressed as a Mongolian official, and the other is Xiao Xiangzi. Qiu Chuji and others heard Fang Zhixing say that the martial arts of several masters on the Mongolian side also recognized it.
The Mongolian nobleman Abuhua said loudly: "His Majesty the Great Khan has issued a decree to entitle the Quanzhen Sect as the head of the sect. As he spoke, he stood in the center of the main hall, took out a roll of yellow satin, spread his hands, and read out: "The Emperor Quanzhen Sect is in charge of: Specially awarded to the great master of the Immortal Performing Dao, the master of the Xuanmen, the Wencui Kai Xuan Hongren Guangyi Dazhenren, in charge of the ...... of the Taoist Sect of all roads" read out here, seeing that no one knelt down to listen to the decree, he said loudly: "The Quanzhen Sect is in charge of the decree." ”
Qiu Chuji snorted coldly, but he didn't answer the order, and said: "Our sect is now taught by Poor Daoxi, and the Mongolian Great Khan's edict is sealed, and Poor Dao does not dare to worship it. ”
Ah Buhua said with a smile: "Your Majesty the Great Khan, Yuyin, Qiu Zhenren is the head of the Quanzhen Sect, so he will be honored. ”
Qiu Chuji said: "Poor Dao is immoral and incompetent, and I really don't dare to worship the honor." ”
A Buhua smiled: "You're welcome, just get the decree quickly." ”
Qiu Chuji refused repeatedly, but the other party kicked back many times, he was unhappy in his heart, and was about to have a seizure, but he heard Liu Chuxuan say: "The favor suddenly descended, and the pawn was unexpected." Please rest for a while in the apse of the adults, and the poor road will consult with the junior brothers. ”
Ah Buhua looked unhappy, rolled up the holy decree and said, "Okay, but I don't know what to discuss?" The four Taoists who received the guests accompanied the nobleman and Xiao Xiangzi to the apse for tea.
Seeing Ah Buhua and Xiao Xiangzi leaving, Qiu Chuji snorted coldly and said, "What else does Senior Brother want to discuss, didn't it be agreed a few days ago?"
Liu Chuxuan said: "Senior brother, you still have too strong a temper, my disciples and others are in the north, even if you want to refuse, you must save a little face, otherwise how will you preach in the future." And Uncle Shi and Zhixing are still in the back mountain, and when they come, it's not too late to refuse. ”
When Qiu Chuji heard this, he thought that Fang Zhixing had said that Xiaoxiangzi's martial arts were very high, so he had to respond temporarily and send someone to call Zhou Botong and Fang Zhixing to come. After everyone arrived, they rejected Abuhua's decree.
Seeing this, Ah Buhua had to leave in disappointment, and Xiao Xiangzi saw that Fang Zhixing and others were there, and there was no trouble. The Quanzhen Sect knew that with such a refusal, the Mongol army would definitely be launched soon, and they hurriedly prepared, preparing to quickly evacuate when the Mongol army went up the mountain.
