Chapter 17 What to Face
With one shot, he picked up the staff in the bearded master's hand, turned his wrist on the gun rod halfway, pressed the gun body and pulled it down. Li Maozhen drew half of the bearded master's face to a bloody and slammed it into Minzhou City from mid-air.
The destroyed house was filled with smoke and dust, and the bearded master could never get up again.
Cooperating with the bearded master, the bearded master besieged several divine servants who were attacking Li Maozhen, all of them were shocked and retreated. They did not care about the bearded master's life and death, and covered their wounds and dispersed like birds and beasts.
Li Maozhen held up the Chixia spear and did not chase after him. His robe was flying in the air and majestic, attracting praise from the monks of Huanyinfang and the Han people in Minzhou City.
According to the plan of Li Maozhen and Chu Nanhuai, during these days, the Tang Dynasty monks acted recklessly around Minzhou City. After one battle after another, the reputation of the Tang Dynasty court had been established again, and the establishment of Quanzhen Temple and the early preparations for the advance of the army went very smoothly.
With momentum and people's hearts, the subsequent things will be much easier.
The monks of the Moon God Cult who were not prepared were initially attacked and could not handle it, and suffered heavy casualties. Then, this bearded master came to challenge him because he was not far from Minzhou City.
Seeing the first commander of Huanyinfang, the bearded master who was half dead, raised from the ruins, Li Maozhen took away Chixia spear and rushed back home.
After entering the dungeon where the criminal was imprisoned, Li Maozhen knocked on the doorpost and said to the person sitting cross-legged inside: "Gnuchin, I brought you a friend back."
The master who was captured by him before responded and looked up. Seeing the bearded master in the first commander's hand, he couldn't help but be stunned and blurted out: "In his anger, have you been captured too?"
The first commander threw the bearded master into the cell. Li Maozhen walked into the door, lifted his robe, and sat down on the bench in front of the table with a graceful look, looking at the two old friends meeting.
Gnuchin finally held the dying bearded man on the haystack and sat down, turned his head and glared at Li Maozhen: "King Qi, how can you put such a heavy hand on the servant of the noble God?"
Li Maozhen laughed and joked, "It is my mercy to save his life. Now I have questions to ask you. If you tell me the truth, this guy may be able to see the moon again alive."
Gnuchin looked alert: "What are you going to ask about King Qi?"
Li Maozhen said: "How many masters do you have in the Moon God Sect? The most powerful ones are the great masters and the Son of God? How much combat power do they have?"
Gnuchin immediately snorted with a proud look on his face, raising his jaw and said, "There are countless servants of the Moon God, far from what you Tang people can imagine! On the plateau and this land you call Hexi, the powerful Moon God servants continue to become stronger under the baptism of the Moon God Temple. Even if you can deal with us now, there will be only a dead end in the next year..."
Gnuchin did not miss any opportunity to promote the power of the Moon God Cult. He would talk endlessly once he had the opportunity to speak. I don’t know if he was really fanatical and confident, or if he hoped to use this to attack Li Maozhen’s fighting spirit.
Li Maozhen has always been simple and direct in his actions. The most annoying thing is this kind of guy who keeps talking nonsense but doesn't talk about the key points. He can't bear it after listening to it for a while. Chixia spear appears in his hand and does not warn him. He raises his hand and stabs the bearded master.
The bearded master was seriously injured. He finally sat down and breathed a sigh of relief. He gritted his teeth and recovered from his injuries. He was just a little bit of pain and was suddenly pierced by a spear.
When he lowered his head and saw the wound that was bleeding out, the bearded master looked confused. Then he looked at Li Maozhen and Gnuchin with grievance and anger, and his body tilted and his feet fell to the sky.
Gnuchin: "..."
Li Maozhen: "Hurry up and talk about the key points."
Gnuchin was in a hurry to lift up the dying bearded man, and tried his best to deliver spiritual energy to the other party to stabilize his injuries. He was also weak, and when he stopped the bleeding from the other party, he was so tired that he was almost lying on the ground. He raised his head and glared at Li Maozhen again, and said a lot of aristocratic demeanor.
Seeing Li Maozhen lifting his spear again, Gnuchin hurriedly shut up, and his movements were too fierce, almost biting his tongue.
He now understood that although this young and handsome King Qi was a top nobleman in the Tang Dynasty, he liked to regard himself as a nobleman on weekdays and looked elegant, he only remembered to convince others with strength as soon as he got up.
But Gnuchin still couldn't figure out when the other party's temper would come up, and he suffered a lot these days - when he was first captured, he could still enjoy a quiet yard with limited freedom, but now he can only stay in the dungeon.
Gnuchin resisted the urge to praise the moon god and answered Li Maozhen's questions in a slight and simplified manner; "Over the years, the number of masters has been increasing, and the cultivation of the old group of masters has also become stronger. Now there are twenty-three masters."
Li Maozhen couldn't help but frown slightly when she heard this.
After these days of battle, she found that the masters of the Moon God Sect were all high-level Divine servant realm, and they were also the best among them. If she had no Heavenly Secret and no Chixia Spear in her hand, she would not dare to say that she could defeat the master. Under her command, there was only the first and third commanding force in the entire Huanyin Square.
With the Huanyinfang and the Qingyi Yamen, there were less than 200 real people in the realm of Gao Pian’s old subordinates. Among them, there were only a dozen real people in Yangshen, and among the real people in Yangshen, who had the same combat power as the master of the Moonshen Sect, except for her and Li Ye, they were not satisfied with both hands.
Gnuchin continued: "Except for a few two masters who can walk outside and cooperate with the army to fight, the rest of the ordinary are in the Great Temple. The great master's cultivation is unparalleled, with the ability to move mountains and fill the seas, and the world will change color as soon as he takes action. The Son of God has received the divine power given by the Moon God, and his combat power is unpredictable."
Speaking of this, seeing Li Maozhen thinking and looking unpredictable, Gnuchin couldn't help but proudly straighten his chest, "Now King Qi knows why we are confident that we will conquer Chang'an in the next year and make the Tang people a kingdom of gods?"
"The Taoist sect in the Tang Dynasty was indeed extraordinary, and there were all kinds of hidden great supernatural powers. When the battle of Fengqi Mountain, we also saw the prosperity of the Taoist sect borrowing the Zhuxian Sword. The Shimen of the Tang Dynasty should not be underestimated, and they could always borrow the magical powers of Bodhisattvas in the Buddha Realm. If it weren't for this, the heroic Tubo warriors would have long captured Chang'an under the leadership of the noble son of the god!"
Li Maozhen felt a little irritated.
The Taoist Sect Zhuxian Sword can no longer be borrowed, and the Immortal Emperor will never help Li Ye, and the same is true for Shi Sect. These two things that made the Moon God Cult fear no longer work now.
Twenty-three, or twenty-one masters, are indeed difficult to deal with.
Seeing that the bearded master's breath stabilized again, his life should be safe. Gnuchin relieved himself and looked at Li Maozhen's serious face again, he smiled proudly: "King Qi, it is useless for you to kill a lot near Minzhou. No matter how many temples you have destroyed or how many divine servants' heads are cut off, as long as the master and his masters arrive, you are destined to be destroyed!"
Speaking of this, Gnuchin smiled more and more happily, "King Qi, even if you have strong combat power, you are just a person after all, what's the use of it? The power of the moon god is not something you can imagine. Surrender is your only way..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly shut up because he was too fast and his teeth scratched.
Because the spear appeared in Li Maozhen's hand again.
He moved very quickly, and as soon as the spear appeared, there was no sound in his mouth.
However, the spear still stabbed forward, and then a blood hole was poked under the right rib of the bearded master, and blood gushed out like a stream of water.
The bearded master looked down and saw his wound, his eyes were filled with confusion again. He really couldn't make a fuss. He obviously did nothing and said nothing, so why was he always stabbed?
He was extremely injured this time, and he didn't even have the strength to look at Li Maozhen with grief and anger, so he rolled his eyes and turned over.
Gnuchin pointed his trembling finger at Li Maozhen and accused him angrily: "I've shut up, why do you want to stab him?"
Li Maozhen stood up, snorted, and Xiaojiazi said angrily: "I am happy, what can you do?"
Gnuchin was so angry that he trembled all over. There were countless insults in his heart that could gush out, but when he reached his mouth, he could only swallow it. If Li Maozhen stabbed the bearded man and shot him, he would not be able to save him.
Li Maozhen turned around and left the cell. When he arrived at the door, he stopped for a while. When he turned around, his face was gone. He smiled easily and said to Gnuchin: "The Moon God Cult can rise, it is indeed a two-way trick, but so what? We can destroy one of your temples and kill one of your cities, and destroy your great temples and kill all of you!"
After saying that, Li Maozhen threw her sleeves out of the door.
Gnuchin could no longer help, stood up and rushed to the doorpost, roaring loudly at Li Maozhen: "We have countless divine servants, masters who can sweep the world, and sons of gods who are all in the sky and earth! The Moon God Cult rose and captured Chang'an, and the establishment of a kingdom of gods on the land of the Tang people is unstoppable! Do you know what this is? This is the general trend! Doesn't the king of great stars understand?"
Li Maozhen stopped and then sneered: "The general trend? What is the general trend?
"Silly Tubo people, don't you know that there is another king in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. He has been going against the trend since his debut? The general trend is just a stone under his feet. When you think you will win, you will find that the general trend in your eyes is already in his hands."
Gnuchin's face was blue and white. He watched Li Maozhen's back disappear at the intersection, and he didn't say a word for a while.
He had doubts, some were puzzled, some were surprised. It was not just because of Li Maozhen's words, but also because of Li Maozhen's back leaving, and there was indescribable loneliness.
In addition to loneliness, there is also... pride?
Gnuchin didn't understand what made such a heroic king who was so proud that he would be so lonely when he killed a god servant like mowing grass, and defeated his master only in the back of his palm.
What makes him feel proud... and proud?
Of course Gnuchin knew who the king Li Maozhen was talking about was.
King An, Li Ye.
How powerful can that King An be?
More powerful than the Son of God?
Of course Gnuchin didn't think so. After coming back to his senses, Gnuchin shouted wildly towards the empty passage: "When you face the great master and the Son of God, you will know what you are facing!"
Li Maozhen, who came outside the door, heard Gnuchin's shout.
