I have an eternal eye

Chapter 174 The war is coming to Huaizhou

beep--!

The sound of the horn resounded throughout the mountains and fields.

At this time, two monks from the Five Immortals Sect had gone down the mountain and were walking through the dense forest paths.

Hearing the sound of the distant horn, the two men suddenly turned their heads.

"It smells of blood..."

The old man surnamed Huang sniffed and his eyes became solemn, "The old man thought wrong. Daliang soldiers and horses were dispatched last night, and something happened at Yunxia Pass!"

"what to do?"

"It's none of our business. The Five Immortals Sect is not involved in the Central Plains war, but it doesn't matter if you help deliver the message. It can also be a favor."

"Let's go, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, go to Lushan City as soon as possible!"

After that, the two speeded up and disappeared into the forest.

Not long after they left, several groups of Daliang soldiers swarmed in, scattered everywhere, and set up hidden sentry traps...

………………

In Qingfengzhai Cave Mansion, Zhang Biao slowly opened his eyes.

There was a hint of exhaustion on his face. He stood up and touched the Xingman tree, shaking his head slightly with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

It's like this again. Except for Xiong Bo, Nuo Mian, other Nuo Mian did not divine the relevant information, and the same is true for Xuanyang Sect.

But this is all to be expected.

The use of dream divination is extremely demanding, and several conditions must be met at the same time to detect relevant information.

And there are many restrictions.

For example, if he tried to divine Xuanyang Sect, the upper echelons of those large sects would definitely know about it, but it would not appear unless they dreamed about it.

Moreover, these sects are also protected by the divine realm, and their dreams cannot be searched unless the restrictions are lifted.

The same is true for some forbidden areas.

In addition, Taoist cultivation also determines the scope of dreams. Like now, he can only feel the dreams of a few states near Huaizhou.

The farther the distance, the weaker the dream divination ability.

This is also a helpless move. Now that the fog is coming, roads are blocked everywhere, and he has no advantage in sect intelligence, so he can only rely on this method to get lucky.

At this time, one night has passed.

There was a hazy white mist outside the cave, and it started to rain lightly again at some point. The sky looked a little gloomy, and there was a continuous sound of rustling, as if the mountains and rivers were being eaten away in the fog.

Zhang Biao left the cave, first went to Liuling Divine Realm to add some fertilizer, and then went to Tie Yucheng's house for dinner.

"Master, you are here."

After Tie Shouming died, his wife was the only one left in the family to take care of their two children. The eldest son Tie Yucheng worshiped him as his teacher, and the second son Tie Yusheng was less than one year old.

Qingfeng Village does not support idlers. In order to let Tie Yucheng concentrate on his cultivation, Zhang Biao simply took out some money and resources and gave them to the Tie family. He only had to be responsible for three meals a day.

Tie Yucheng was writing a book. When he saw him coming in, he quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Master, you are here."

Zhang Biao nodded, picked up a few pages of paper and looked at them. He saw signs of Shui Mei appearing on them. The handwriting was neat and the language was extremely popular.

"Master, do you think this is okay?"

Tie Yucheng asked from the side, his eyes a little nervous.

He got Zhang Biao's permission to record the signs of common evil objects and disaster avoidance methods, and prepared to publish a book to spread throughout the world.

This was inspired by Tu Lingzi's deeds. When he traveled around to slay demons, he imparted relevant knowledge wherever he went. Tie Yucheng came up with this idea after hearing this.

After Zhang Biao flipped through a few pages, he nodded slightly, "Many of today's folk customs are derived from the ancient techniques of exorcising evil spirits and avoiding disasters, but the people have forgotten it. You wrote the book in vernacular, and everyone can understand it, which is better than I thought. thoughtful."

"After the book is completed, you can discuss it with Zheng Yongxiang. He will definitely be willing to facilitate this matter."

"Thank you Master!"

After hearing this, Tie Yucheng's eyes were filled with excitement.

He has read Confucian classics since he was a child. Although the rules have changed now and he has no idea of ​​joining the court as an official, he still has the style of a benevolent and righteous gentleman.

It's natural to be excited to do such a big thing at such a young age.

Zhang Biao smiled slightly and didn't care.

Everyone has different personalities and ambitions. He just needs to preach, learn his karma and resolve doubts, and not let him go astray. What he can achieve in the future depends on his own success.

At least, the Xuanyang Sect inheritance did not teach it to gangsters.

At this time, Tie Yucheng's mother also served the meal, including brown rice porridge, free-range eggs, pancakes, fresh wild vegetables and a large pot of stewed meat.

Practicing the Xuanyang Sect, his appetite is much higher than that of ordinary people.

Zhang Biao and Tie Yucheng were in a hurry. After eating and drinking, they began to ask about their daily homework.

The Xuanyang Sect's inheritance was incomplete, so he did not hide his secrets. He taught Fang Xiangzong's research on evil objects, "Baicao Jing" and "Mountain and Sea Talisman Interpretation" to lay a solid foundation first.

"Why?"

"The fierce ghost turns into a mountain spirit, with a body like a bear, accustomed to eating small ghosts, and is easily attracted by incense..."

"What is the meaning of the Five Elements Talisman?"

"The five-element talisman can draw the Qi of the five elements, and with different patterns, it can manifest the five properties of moistening, inflammation, straightness, leather, and farming..."

While the two were questioning each other, they saw Yu Ziqing and Zheng Yongxiang coming in a hurry, their faces full of solemnity and anxiety.

"This morning Daliang sent troops to capture Yunxia Pass!"

Zheng Yongxiang ignored the courtesy and told the matter directly.

"What?"

Zhang Biao also looked surprised, frowned slightly and asked: "Daliang wants to attack Huaizhou and fight on two fronts. How can they get the confidence?"

Zheng Yongxiang shook his head and said: "This happened suddenly, without any warning in advance. It was just news from over there that the army stationed in Duliang Mountain had rushed to help."

Zhang Biao said thoughtfully: "Is there anything unusual at Shanyin Ferry?"

Zheng Yongxiang replied: "I have sent extra manpower to block the river. This is the strange thing. If we want to conquer Huaizhou, wouldn't it be faster to cross Shanyin?"

"Maybe there's something fishy about it."

Zhang Biao thought for a moment and said, "I happen to be going to Lushan City to find out more about this matter."

"You send troops to guard Shanyin Crossing and march to Daliang. Zombies and insect demons will be released wherever you go. Pay special attention to them. I will pass down the method of dealing with them."

"Thank you, Immortal Master."

After sending Zheng Yongxiang away, Qingfeng Village became busy.

Under the leadership of Wu Tiexiong, everyone began to make traps and deploy fortifications. The clouds of war enveloped everyone, and everyone looked ugly.

Zhang Biao also sighed slightly when he saw this.

Unexpectedly, after escaping to Huaizhou and finally settling down, I still didn't escape the war in this troubled world.

"After I leave, you guys must guard the gate of the village and don't go out..."

"Liu Ling can monitor the movements of hundreds of miles around. With the cooperation of Daduye, ordinary monks can't attack. But if there is an accident, you can evacuate first and wait until I come back..."

"yes, Sir."

"Yes, Immortal Master."

After arranging all the affairs, Zhang Biao first entered the spirit world and harvested all the mature Awakening Grass. Then he packed up a number of magic weapons and left Qingfeng Village on horseback.

It rained continuously and the roads were muddy.

Zhang Biao has a Nuo temperament and is not afraid of thick fog blocking his vision. He is naturally very fast and arrived at Moyang City in a short time.

Moyang City had obviously received the news, the city gates were closed tightly, the defenders on the city wall looked nervous, and spies were also sent out to patrol.

Zhang Biao didn't do anything else. He bypassed Moyang City, went up to Duliang Mountain, and headed towards Lushan City.

The ancient tombs in Duliang Mountain have been destroyed, and the roads are open again. There are dense footprints all along the way, and there are also traces of pots buried to make rice. It is obvious that the Huaizhou army has left.

The journey was windy and rainy, and when they approached the Lushan City Basin the next day, Zhang Biao had already caught up with the Huaizhou army.

I saw in the distance on the Yanshan Ancient Road, swords and guns were like forests, and flags were like clouds. At a glance, there were at least tens of thousands of people.

The Huaizhou army was not in a hurry to move forward. Instead, they set up camp on a hill and sent out cavalry spies.

Zhang Biao nodded slightly when he saw this.

Yunxia Pass is about thirty miles away from here, passing through a canyon in the middle. Camping on the hills is a favorable terrain.

It seems that the general of this army is a stable man.

He watched for a while, then turned his horse's head and headed towards Lushan City on the other side.

The atmosphere in Lushan City is even more tense.

Along the way, Zhang Biao was stopped by several checkpoints in succession. Fortunately, he had an unusual identity and had a token personally presented by the Lord of Lushan City, so he was not blocked.

"Living ancestor, why are you here!"

As soon as he arrived at Changchun Temple, Cui Laodao came in a hurry. It looked like he had just come back from outside, and the hem of his Taoist robe was covered with mud.

Zhang Biao raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise: "Shouldn't I come? Aren't you afraid of the dangers of war and no one will take you to escape?"

"There is another hidden story behind this matter."

Cui Laodao asked the others to step back and said in a low voice: "I just came back from City Lord Zheng, Xuanduguan has sent experts to find out the matter."

"This matter is still a hidden danger left by the corpse plague last time. Due to two days of heavy rain and flash floods, the defenders sent by King Huaizhou were blocked on the road. Lushan City deployed a group of people to defend it."

"Hou Kun, the commander-in-chief of the Longwu Army, learned of this. He had the courage to send troops privately and captured Yunxia Pass. If he started a dispute without permission, I'm afraid a reprimand from the Daliang court is on the way."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Zhang Biao frowned and said, "Hou Kun was good at sneaking into the camp when he was at Liumen. He is a master who never sees rabbits but doesn't let go of hawks. If he dares to take such a risk, I'm afraid he has already foreseen what will happen next."

Cui Laodao shook his head and said: "Xuan Du Guan has already had information about Hou Kun's past. Taoist Master Xu Chen judged that he wanted to seize the choke point of Yunxia Pass to intimidate Huaizhou."

"King Huaizhou has dispatched troops from the North Road Camp. Taoist Master Xuchen has also summoned the disciples of Xuandu Temple in Huaizhou to gather together. We only need to wait three days to retake the pass..."

As he spoke, he shook his head and said: "That's why I said you shouldn't come. Hou Kun's purpose is to occupy Yunxia Pass and gain credit, and Daliang has no spare time to attack Huaizhou. At most, it will form a confrontation."

"What if Xu Chen invites you to help us win the battle? The war is chaotic and the sword has no eyesight. No matter how high you are, you are still in danger. Don't get involved in this matter."

"I see."

Zhang Biao suddenly realized, "Don't worry, I came to Lushan City for other reasons. Help me send a message to Elder Hu of the Five Immortals Sect."

Cui Laodao nodded and said: "This is easy to handle. The practice market has been temporarily closed, and the people of the Five Immortals Sect are also hiding in the city. I will send someone to spread the word."

After a while, the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect sent back a message, and the Five Immortals asked Zhang Biao to go and talk about it.

Zhang Biao left Changchun Temple immediately.

Although Cui Laodao estimated that the war would not spread to Lushan City, the city was still shrouded in clouds and in panic, and soldiers lined up passing by on the streets from time to time.

Zhang Biao put on his hood and strode forward in the rain, avoiding groups of soldiers, and soon arrived at a mansion in the south of the city.

This house is quite grand, with a red painted door and a pair of stone lions outside. Through the white walls and black tiles, you can see the towering pines and cypresses inside.

The door was already open, and Hu Yunhai, the elder of the Five Immortals Sect, personally brought a few people out to greet them.

"Hahaha."

Hu Yunhai still had the same bohemian look. After welcoming him into the lobby, he laughed, showing his rotten teeth, "Fellow Taoist Tai Sui, you came at the right time, the things have just been delivered."

"oh?"

Zhang Biao pretended to be surprised and said with a smile: "It just so happens that the first batch of God-awakening grass has been planted, and I have brought them all."

Hu Yunhai's eyes lit up, and he waved his hand and said: "Three links, please present the things to fellow Taoist Taoist Tai Sui for inspection."

A disciple of the Five Immortals Sect walked in from the door after hearing this. It was the young man Zhang Biao Mengzhan had seen...
