Chapter 59 Chaos arose in the faction, and I was shocked to hear that someone had died
It's a good time to train. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the city, the soldiers of the Red Phoenix Army had already gotten up, and they began to exercise day after day according to the schedule set before, and the sound of breathless and rhythmic footsteps made the people in Taiyuan City feel a little at ease.
If there were these hundred-battle lions here, the Mongolian army outside the city would not be able to break through Taiyuan City!
With great expectations, they paid the highest respect to these soldiers who obeyed their posts and protected the territory and the people. More pilgrims came to the Baiyun Temple in the southeast corner of Taiyuan City with expectations to pray for their families and the Red Fengjun and his party. In this troubled world, they can only use this way to contribute to the Red Phoenix Army.
The sun rises and sets, and another day passes.
Seeing off the last batch of pilgrims, Zhang Zhijing was a little tired, sitting cross-legged on the futon, closing his eyes and recuperating.
Yesterday, he thought that Xiao Feng would be worried about the face of the former Changchun Zhenrenqiu and let them leave. Unexpectedly, this time, it annoyed Xiao Feng, so that until now he was worried and afraid, for fear that a large number of troops would pour in from outside the temple and arrest them all.
"Wei Zhiyang. Has the Seven Star Tiangang Array been laid down?"
Hearing the footsteps, Zhang Zhijing opened his mouth and asked.
And that Wei Zhiyang immediately stopped, and immediately bowed his head: "It's already laid down! It's just a master, please forgive me for offending." You should also know that the Mongolian army is huge, that is, Xiao Feng is heroic, and the Red Feng army is also a hundred battles. However, if you wait for the Mongolian army to recover from it, I am afraid that this Taiyuan city will not be conquered in a few days. At that time, with just a few people waiting for me, how long will this Seven-Star Tiangang Array be able to sustain?"
It's not that they're afraid, it's because they've experienced the strength of Mongolia that they really don't dare to continue to fight against each other.
Opening his eyes, Zhang Zhijing exhaled a stream of turbid gas in his abdomen slightly, and said slowly: "I naturally know." However, without the help of the Red Phoenix Army, how many of you and I would be able to escape from the Buddha's eight phases?"
"But the woman was too domineering. You actually forced us to wait again, and didn't allow us to leave just like that?" was indignant, and Wei Zhiyang was naturally a little annoyed.
Although he is a Taoist priest, he is also familiar with the major events in the world and the strategy of the military formation, and naturally knows that this Taiyuan City is very important, and it is a military town in the Central Plains in the north, and the key place to govern the two roads of He East and West.
If this Taiyuan City is controlled by the Red Phoenix Army, it will be equivalent to a sharp sword directly against the Mongolian throat.
It is precisely for this reason that in order to ensure the safety of the Central Plains, the Mongol Great Khan must eradicate the existence of the Red Phoenix Army, and Shi Tianze, who came here today, is to completely wipe out the Red Phoenix Army, recapture Taiyuan City and the two roads and seventeen states under its jurisdiction, and then ensure the safety of the Mongolian territory.
Zhang Zhijing also understood this, but he felt a little ashamed when he thought of the scene when he talked to Xiao Feng last night, but when he thought of the desolation of only dozens of people under the door now, he had to say in a low voice: "I naturally know." But you also know that now that we are waiting for someone to send someone under the fence, if it weren't for Xiao Feng coming forward, we would have been wiped out. It is precisely for this reason that you and I must remember that we must put the survival of the sect first, and we must not act recklessly, you know?"
"Senior brother knows!"
Seeing the struggle, Wei Zhiyang had no choice but to be resentful, and broke out of the door with a flick of his sleeve.
He has always been hot, although he understands that the reason why he survived by luck is all because of Xiao Feng's support, but if he wants to bend his knees and surrender, it will be really difficult.
Looking at his departing figure, Zhang Zhijing shook his head slightly, and immediately restrained his sadness, sitting cross-legged on the futon, the fire candles around him were swaying, and a wisp of green smoke lingered from the incense burner, becoming more and more hazy around, like smoke and fog, like illusion and reality, I don't know where their Quanzhen Sect will go.
As for Wei Zhiyang, he was angry in his heart, and he didn't know the direction, so he buried his head and ran all the way, and occasionally roared, I don't know how many birds and beasts were alarmed.
After he recovered, he noticed that he had come to a ruin, full of weeds and rivers, and by chance from the weeds that were more than one person high, he could vaguely see the remnants of the broken wall that had not yet collapsed, and if he looked closely, the small hillside that stretched for about dozens of meters not far away was actually stacked on top of each other, with layers of straw in the middle, which was completely deliberately built up by humans.
As if because of his arrival, the birds and finches that were looking for food among the weeds fluttered their wings and disappeared in an instant.
Under the moonlight, the sound of the wind froze, giving it a touch of gloom.
"Who? Who's there?"
Wei Zhiyang shouted angrily, the sword hanging from his waist suddenly swept up and jumped into his palm, he held the sword with a worried face and looked around.
For some reason, he suddenly felt the heaviness of the aura around him, almost crushing his heart completely.
Sure enough, a flood bell suddenly rang in the air, and it smashed right next to his ear, causing his breath to diverge, and the blood in his body surged, almost spitting out blood.
"The boy has been waiting for a long time again, since you want to see you, what if you meet again"
The voice fell, in the hazy moonlight, a figure walked out slowly, with a smile on his face, and after the voice dissipated, where was Wei Zhiyang's figure in this remnant wall?
............
"What's going on? It's already three days old, why hasn't Wei Zhiyang come back yet?" With a hurried expression, Zhang Zhijing asked the people in front of him.
According to the rules of the Quanzhen Sect, this is the time for the morning class, and it stands to reason that everyone should be present, but Wei Zhiyang has never arrived. This made Zhang Zhijing even worried.
Sun Zhifeng immediately announced: "Last night, after I saw that my senior brother was disappointed and left the master's room, he roared and carried light skills, and ran directly into the distance. I wanted to keep up, but my cultivation was not enough, and I couldn't do enough light work, so I could only let my senior brother leave. Didn't he just abandon us and leave this place?"
"No way. Zhang Zhijing showed concern and retorted: "Although Wei Zhi's positive feelings are violent, he is not an incorruptible and shameless person. He hasn't appeared today, but I'm afraid something happened to him. ”
"Who did it?"
For a while, everyone's faces showed fear, and they looked at each other with apprehension.
They had been chased and killed by the Buddha before, and they had provoked the anger of the Chifeng Army a few days ago, and thinking of the various words that Wei Zhiyang had said, they had a fear like they were on the edge of the abyss.
If Xiao Feng doesn't protect them anymore, then what should they do?
"Everyone, calm me down!" The voice suddenly rose, and Zhang Zhijing became angry: "Rank! We haven't investigated it yet, so we must not speculate." "If Mongolia did it, if the Red Phoenix Army did it, then if they went to theorize without authorization, I am afraid that they would be in the mouth of a tiger.
"Guys, what happened today that made the rank of rank so flustered that he didn't even do morning class?"
At that moment, a man came from the gate.
This person was wearing a cyan robe, with a blue cloth bag tied around his waist, although it was a cold winter moment at the moment, he still held a folding fan, which was the diner Feng Lingzi raised by Cao Yun in the past.
"Alas. I'm ashamed to say it, and I blame me for not talking too seriously last night, but it turned out to make my junior brother Wei Zhiyang confused for a while, and he didn't understand the matter, so he went out for a walk alone. But to this day, he has not returned. Zhang Zhijing immediately greeted him and begged: "If Brother Ren has any information, I wonder if you can tell me?"
Shaking the folding fan, Feng Lingzi waved his hand and refused: "Although I am under the decree of Commander Xiao, I am responsible for catching the wind and shadows, but if no one knows, then I can't do anything." But I know a little bit about tracing him, and if you can provide me with some of what he left behind, I might be able to find him!"
"That's good!" As soon as his heart was relieved, Zhang Zhijing immediately ordered his disciples to take Wei Zhiyang's underwear and hand it over to Feng Lingzi.
After Feng Lingzi took over the shirt, he immediately took out a box from his bosom, and untied the box to reveal a golden beetle, with clear wings and distinct lines, and the tentacles swaying gently in the breeze, which was really a delicate work of art. Seeing the curious eyes of everyone, Feng Lingzi explained: "This is a tracking bee, which I carefully concocted. All it needs to do is sniff the smell on the shirt and it will automatically find its target. ”
Then, Feng Lingzi took a piccolo from his sleeve, pinched his mouth against the piccolo and made a strange sound, stimulated by this sound, the insect that was originally like a golden cast immediately woke up, and the two light cicada wings trembled, and immediately landed on the shirt. It crawled around on top of the robe for a moment, and then it took off into the air, its wings humming and flying off into the distance.
"It looks like I'm frowning. ”
A smile was gone, and Feng Lingzi immediately raised his hand to the Quanzhen Sect Taoist priests.
Zhang Zhijing immediately bowed his head, and was also grateful, and immediately carried the light work, followed the golden beetle, and ran into the distance. Following behind, those Taoist priests also followed, wanting to know where Wei Zhiyang was now.
In this way, the group ran for about an hour before they came to a ruin.
In the middle of the night, it was difficult to see the scene in its entirety, but now that it was daytime, they could see it clearly.
Circle after circle, the city walls stand here, probably because of the erosion of wind and rain, they have long lost the majestic and majestic appearance of the past, but are overgrown with weeds, if it is not for the whole protrusion from the ground to form a mound about dozens of zhang long, I am afraid that everyone may not be able to recognize what this is. Although many of the city walls had collapsed, everyone looked at the vaguely enclosed outline, and immediately knew that this place was once a city, and its area should be more than a circle larger than that Taiyuan City.
In the middle of this city, there is a lake about dozens of feet wide, sparkling and rippling with the wind.
The lake is overgrown with weeds, and the occasional fluttering of wings adds some life to the place.
"This is Jinyang City?" said in a low voice, Zhang Zhijing tightened his body.
For some reason, he felt that there was some yin qi here, and when the tracer bee stepped into here, it seemed that he couldn't distinguish the smell, and only roamed among the grass, as if on this meadow, there was the breath of his junior brother Wei Zhiyang everywhere.
"That's right!" Feng Lingzi's expression was gloomy, and he replied in a low voice: "This is Jinyang City, but unfortunately two hundred years ago, because it was involved in the war between the Northern Han Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, it was completely destroyed by the Song Taizong in a rage, and the people in the city were also involved in it, and all of them were destroyed. It is precisely because of this that this thousand-year-old city was completely abandoned, and the rest of the people turned to the lower reaches of Fenshui to continue to build the city, so as to form today's Taiyuan City. As for this Jinyang City, it has now been completely abandoned and turned into such a land of water. ”
There was a sigh in his voice, obviously thinking of the current war between the Red Phoenix Army and the Mongolian army.
If those earth immortal powerhouses fight, I am afraid that the appearance of Jinyang City today is the possibility of Taiyuan City tomorrow!
Zhang Zhijing apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry, it seems to have touched your sadness?"
"It's okay! With the protection of Commander Xiao, we will definitely be able to escape. The corners of Feng Lingzi's mouth were raised, as if he was complaining and annoyed, and all kinds of thoughts were presented, which really made people wonder, why did this person have such a rich expression?
But his words are even more unpredictable, and it is not clear whether this person is affirming or mocking?
Zhang Zhijing had no choice but to restrain his doubts, continued to follow the tracking bee, and began to look for the possible existence of his junior brother.
The tracking bee is also a little strange, sometimes it lands on a piece of grass, and when everyone turns over the grass they find that there is a rag hidden in it, sometimes they land on the city wall, only to find that a shoe has been left on the city wall, and sometimes it flies around on the ground, and they can't find it in every search, which really makes people wonder what happened here, how can there be so many places with the breath of Wei Zhiyang
However, when everyone saw the weeds hovering around the tracking bees, they felt a little strange, compared to the weeds growing indiscriminately in the rest of the place, the weeds here were quite flat, and if you looked closely, you could see that the top of the weeds had an extremely flat planing surface, and it was obvious that these weeds had been artificially made.
Zhang Zhijing suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly knelt down to remove the weeds, but when he looked at it intently, the whole person was startled, just because in this grass, his junior brother Wei Zhiyang was lying on the ground, his robe was torn a few times, and several corners of his clothes were also cut off, and he also lost a shoe on his feet, the two eyeballs had lost focus, and there was no blood on his face, and there was a broken sword stuck in the dirt next to him, and several fragments hit the surrounding dirt.
Obviously, Wei Zhiyang, who was still alive last night, died!
