Chapter 94 Sending troops (2)
Chapter 94: Sending troops (2)
With the mobilization and confrontation between the two towns, the atmosphere in Shu became more and more tense.
In comparison, Wenyang Prefecture City was as calm as before. Except for the additional armored soldiers in front of the city gate, the entry and exit of the city was restricted, and this did not affect the prosperity and contacts in the city at all.
Pedestrians come and go on the streets, and shops of all sizes are still full of customers. I deliberately ignore the worries on some people's faces. This is no different from before.
The vendors who set up the stalls lined up. One of Qian Dasao's wonton stalls was the most crowded because of the delicious filling and solidity. At this time, there were guests everywhere on several temporary tables.
At this moment, a sound of horse hooves was heard, and dozens of riders rushed away with one general.
"There are another batch, there are three batches today, right?"
"There are four batches, I don't know what happened."
"Stop it, this is not something we can do!"
People who got up early to do some business, saw this scene, and were talking a lot.
At this time, Ping Zhen was eating wontons at Qian Dasao's stall, and he saw a team of cavalry passing by. Ping Zhen turned his head and turned towards the direction of the cavalry, and was ecstatic for a long time.
"Keep, this is the side dish you want." Mrs. Qian enthusiastically and thoughtfully put two plates of green onion slices and sauce on it.
"Oh." Ping Zhen came to his senses, hurriedly finished a large bowl of wontons, placed more than a dozen small coins on the table, and Ping Zhen walked in a direction that was completely different from the direction of departure.
I walked half a mile away, and there were fewer and fewer houses around me, and a house appeared in front of me.
This house looks no different from the surrounding houses. The door is closed from the inside and opens silently under the push of Pingzhen.
There are five rooms in the house. There is a big tree in the courtyard. The branches and leaves have already grown tender buds, and the canopy covers one-third of the courtyard. The sunlight shines through the colorful branches and leaves, making the light in the courtyard slightly dim.
Even so, Ping Zhen saw a person standing under the tree at a glance, and he suddenly looked respectful on his face. He stepped forward a few steps and bowed to the man: "Uncle Yuanzhen, why did you arrive so early?"
This middle-aged Taoist priest Yuan Zhen, under the tree, was very thin, with his two dark eyebrows flashing, making him dare not look at him.
Yuan Zhen turned his eyes to him at this time, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "I was following the caravan in, but the city gates have been checked very tightly these days. If I hadn't happened to encounter a caravan entering the city, I'd probably have to take a lot of trouble - you're here very quickly!"
"Yes, the disciple is already in the city, so there is no need to go through trouble!" Pingzhen said.
"The situation is getting worse and worse. Pingzhen, let me tell you about your recent gains. I will pass these news back to the master one by one and ask them to decide on the next action." Yuanzhen said, no longer saying politely, and asked directly.
Pingzhen nodded and said, "The focus of Shu is Hongze Town at this time. Wei Cundong has sent 50,000 troops to Hongze Town. The two sides have fought against each other a few days ago. Hongze Town is at a disadvantage. I am afraid that in a while, it will be impossible for Wei Cundong to lead his troops to attack Hongze City."
Pingzhen thought about his experience and said, "Uncle Shi, I saw the generals passing by in a hurry on the street. The city seemed calm, but I was also an official of the prince and I already knew some news. In this city, the prince and the prince had mobilized their troops and convened meetings many times. According to the news I knew, everything was ready and could be opened at any time. He had made up his mind to intervene in the war when necessary. The situation of the battle between the three families was inevitable."
"The situation of the battle between the three families is inevitable. It seems that it will not be too far from the unification of Dongyizhou." Yuan Zhen said lightly as he listened to Ping Zhen's report.
There is only dullness in the tone, but not much emotion.
Such qi-refining men have long passed the stage of love for their children and greed for money and good power, and even their worries about the country and the people have gradually disappeared. Perhaps from the beginning, these wisdom-oriented people have never paid attention to these.
For Qi Refiners, the continuation of Taoism and the progress of cultivation are far more important than the secular world.
Pingzhen asked again: "Uncle Master, what do you think of this battle?"
Yuan Zhen thought for a while and said, "In Chengdu, we have used geoscience techniques to observe Wei Cundong's ancestral temple and observed the fortune. On the Wei Cundong's ancestral temple, there was already a white energy condensed into a white tiger and lying high above."
"What, is this auspicious sign of the prosperity of the Wei family and the stable foundation?" Pingzhen was immediately surprised and asked.
"Pingzhen, your joy and anger are reflected in your expressions, and you have been influenced by Wang Hongyi's luck. You must know that you can only use your luck and not be fascinated by them. Just like a chess player outside the chess, if your heart lies with one side, you will fall into the net!" Yuan Zhen said in a faint and deep voice.
Hei Zhen was shocked, took a few steps back, and said, "It's me who's false."
"Well, just understand, but this does not mean that the Wei family's fortune is prosperous and its foundation is stable. Wei Cundong got the ancestor's fortune and captured the three counties. He had already seen it before, and most of the fortune was consumed. At this time, the White Tiger came out of the temple. The so-called reflection of the light will be more intense when it is about to end. It depends on how this level is passed."
"If Wei Cundong could win and unify Dongyizhou, the luck consumed can not only be compensated, but also solid foundation. His son may be the king of Shu, but it is impossible to break out of Shu."
"If Wang Hongyi wins, he will definitely be able to unify Dongyizhou. From now on, the dragon will emerge from the abyss and see the dragon in the field."
Ping Zhen heard this and suddenly understood.
"Wang Hongyi has good strength and luck. It can be seen from the previous battles, but we still need to send the news back to the master's sect first, and ask the master to be prepared and determined to deal with emergencies. As for you, don't act rashly in a short time, and wait for the master's sect to have clear orders." As he said that, Yuan Zhen turned around and walked into the room.
Ping Zhen bowed to the back, responded to the promise, and left.
Hidden Mountain, by the Qinglian Pool.
The green lotus pond is still there, only half of the water surface. In the small lotus pond, the water ripples fluctuate and the lotus sways.
The four petals of the green lotus are pure and pure. The fifth petal has doubled, but it has recovered its vitality and is just waiting for cultivation.
At this time, the real person god who appeared in front of the head and the elders shot out golden light from the body, disintegrating the erosion of the black insects bit by bit. It seemed that the situation had improved.
Seeing this, everyone was happy.
"Real person, you look better, it's really good!" Knowing that the change of the real person at this time is related to the statue of the temple in Wenyang Mansion, and also to the luck he gained from helping Wang Hongyi. This made the people present sigh that a mere mortal can actually affect these cultivators so deeply.
"This move is helpless, but the result was better before. There was a better incense in the nearby city. I did my best, so it was called effective and the incense gradually became popular."
"Last time when the Red Sun was in love, Wang Hongyi was lucky enough to get this son. In addition to practicing, you should spare no effort to assist the leader in order to achieve the purpose of the Hidden Sect to continue the Taoist throne." The real person spoke slowly and said.
As he said that, the black aura on the real person's body surged again, and he had to end this conversation: "The gods and man have a quiet journey, and they are full of words to hurt virtue. This conversation ends here. All the things in the door will be handed over to you. As I gradually transform into a god from the future, the opportunities for this conversation will gradually decrease. You can do it with you!"
Then, the gods disappeared, and almost at the same time, the pool water narrowed insignificantly, which was consumption.
At the same time, someone came forward and knocked on the door: "The head, elder, the sending of the pigeon at the foot of the mountain has arrived."
"Come in." said the head of the sect.
One person sent a roll of paper and gave it to the head first.
The head of the sect spread his palms out, carefully looked at the contents written on it, and then passed it to the elder one by one. The elder had finished reading it, and the paper was burned and disappeared in the air.
"Everyone, this battle determines the direction of the dragon energy in Shu. What do you think, what are the good and bad luck?"
An elder opened his eyes slightly: "Wei Cundong's white tiger became a star, which is his last fight, but the return of the light must not last long, and this battle will definitely be defeated."
Another elder sneered and said, "Not necessarily, if Wei Cundong could seize Hongze County, he would already possess the four counties. His fortune would rise sharply, and it might be a return to the future. Maybe it would be a battle of back and forth to extend his fortune."
"Wei Cundong's life is not long. Even if he wins this time, what can we do? He can defeat Wang Hongyi in one fell swoop? If he can't, when he dies, his son will still be in control. Wang Hongyi will definitely raise his troops to attack." An elder said in an argument.
"But the news said that Wang Hongyi has mobilized his troops many times and convened meetings many times, and can start at any time. He has made up his mind to intervene in the war when necessary. The situation of the battle between the three families is inevitable, rather than avoiding the enemy's edge."
"If the situation of the battle between the three families is inevitable, the good and bad luck of this disaster is unpredictable, and the fortune and fortune depend on each other, success and failure are at the right line. Wang Hongyi is still too young!"
"What should we do about this situation now? Please make a decision by the head of the sect." Another person said.
"As soon as everything has its beginning, it must be practiced, and it must be a good end. Even if you have a good beginning and a good end, you will still have more roots. For those of us, we only need to be at ease in everything and do our best!" The head of the sect said lightly.
All the elders were stunned, not wanting the head to take a clear stand this time.
The head of the sect smiled faintly and said, "But the situation has developed to this point, we are no longer able to intervene, so let's wait and see what's going on!"
After hearing this, the elders had to respond: "Promise!"
I couldn't help but turn my eyes to Hongze Town. At this time, the general trend of the world was more important than the practice of retreat.
Wenyang Prefecture City, General's Mansion
Sensitively detect changes in the current situation.
"I have been divining for three days, but it is impossible to resolve the chaos. What a...what is the opportunity?" Pushing away the divining object in front of me, Su'er finally stood up, pushed open the door of the room, and walked into the yard.
Looking up at the sky, I saw red air rolling over Wenyang Mansion and soaring into the sky. This is the sign of the fact that the person in charge is about to fight. It seems that my cousin is going to send troops again.
Su'er bit her lip and pondered for a moment, giving up the idea of inquiring about the news.
Now that I have just entered the category of Wang Hongyi’s close confidants, I have no say in this kind of thing.
From the perspective of the celestial phenomena and hexagrams, my cousin did not have any major problems when he went to the battle, and even if there were any mistakes, he should not shake the root cause. Since this is the case, she doesn’t need to say much, and it is important to keep her duties.
Thinking of this, she walked towards the Guizhou Guardian Relic Courtyard. She had not been there for several days to deal with official duties and search for talented children. She has not yet settled. As Wang Hongyi's territory grows bigger and bigger, the department of Guizhou Guardian with only three people is too simple. She needs to step up her search and training so that she can contribute to her cousin in the future.
