Tiandao doesn't work today

In Anqiu City, the Zhu family was running around anxiously.

Five thousand troops of the Bald Witch Wolf suddenly came to the city. They were caught off guard and almost let them rush into the city.

Fortunately, the third uncle of the Zhu family ordered the city gate to be locked in time. He held the white jade flute, the Zhu family's magic weapon, and sacrificed his essence and blood. He released magical sound waves and sat at the top of the city to fight against the bald witch wolf.

He is the only amazing warrior in the Zhu family. Equipped with a magic weapon, he is enough to fight against the bald witch wolf.

There are also several elders of the Zhu family who are top experts. They carry a large number of talismans to eliminate the evil spirits of the enemy and fight to the death on the city wall.

"How did you get to Anqiu?"

"Has there been a change in Gaomi?"

Zhu Xiazhi looked anxious and immediately sent out scouts from the east side to call for rescue in Gaomi.

However, before they had gone a mile, a monk appeared, with a face like a crown of jade, sitting cross-legged on a huge futon, wielding three swords at the same time, and said calmly: "Go back and tell the Zhu family to surrender quickly."

When the scout saw the monks blocking him, he quickly fled back to the city to report the news.

When Zhu Xiazhi heard this, his pupils were shocked: "Is there still an evil cultivator in the Tufa clan?"

"Unlike the evil cultivator, he didn't hurt me. He seems to be a righteous cultivator." The scout said.

"Why do righteous monks help Bald Hair?" Zhu Xiazhi said angrily.

The eldest son Zhu Boliang said solemnly: "The Seven Friends of Lushan have publicly declared that Tufa has a destiny. This person must be a monk from the Lushan lineage."

"No wonder they arrived here silently and unexpectedly... What should we do now?" Zhu Xiazhi was extremely worried.

Zhu Boliang said: "The enemy took a detour and made a surprise attack. Gaomi will definitely not know about it. If we can't get the news out, we will be isolated and helpless..."

"The enemy has monks again, Anqiu may not be able to defend..."

Zhu Xiazhi murmured: "Although Monk Na Lushan helps the bald man, he may not take action directly."

"Uncle San is still fighting fiercely on top of the city. Let's check the situation first."

Seeing that his father still wanted to defend himself, Zhu Boliang said anxiously: "I wonder, father, do you want to serve the country or the family?"

"..." Zhu Xiazhi rubbed the jade pendant around his waist vigorously and looked at the prefect's seal again.

In a daze, he hesitated, with the phrase 'a gentleman is like bamboo, he would rather break than bend' echoing in his mind.

At first, he wanted to move south, but the Zhu family had no foundation in the south, and the first-class aristocratic families and top nobles left first, leaving behind a large amount of land and industry, which was basically given to them for free.

Many second- and third-rate wealthy families stayed to share the fortune, and the Zhu family also took a large share of the pie, and then they stopped leaving.

Later, the situation in Qingzhou deteriorated, and the family monk called back Master Shiliu. After Master Shiliu was gone, he wanted to move south again.

However, a young man appeared, rode through the camp, burned all their baggage carriages, and captured his daughter.

After that, the situation on the Gaomi front line improved, and his daughter replied that she was working in Gaomi. Not long ago, there was news that the Tufa clan would be destroyed, and she asked him not to worry.

In this way, Zhu Xiazhi gave up the idea of ​​moving south. He never thought that an enemy would suddenly attack today.

Anqiu has been surrounded and is isolated and helpless. Should we still defend it?

"Father! Please make a decision early!" Zhu Boliang said urgently.

"What do you think?" Zhu Xiazhi frowned.

Zhu Boliang said bitterly: "Father, you are the head of the family. Whether it is fighting or surrendering, the children will obey your orders."

"If there is a war, and the family still has a magical weapon, we should immediately ask for divine power to help Third Uncle defeat the enemy."

"If we surrender, we should act immediately, bear the thorns to plead guilty, and open the city to surrender, so as not to hurt the bald witch wolf and anger the other party."

"Anyway, fathers need to make up their minds as soon as possible! Don't hesitate!"

Zhu Xiazhi was still hesitating. He wanted to surrender, but when the time came, he was still undecided.

However, after listening to his son's words, he thought for a while and said: "Although the family has the tools to communicate with the gods, it does not have the gift of communicating with the gods. The God Rigel has too high a divinity to be considered worthy of ordinary worship."

The ancestor of the Zhu family once followed Anpinghou, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, in the southern and northern wars. Later, Anpinghou made him a god and made him a star in the sky. He was none other than the god Rigel.

Then the Zhu family received many benefits, including a magical weapon that could communicate with the gods.

However, Erbasu is a god with a noble personality, and is an existence on the same level as the gods. If the Zhu family does not have a touching ceremony to meet him, it is impossible to invite the gods to take action.

"Father, do you know that gods are getting married?" Zhu Boliang said suddenly.

"Huh?" Zhu Xiazhi was excited and sat up straight.

Yes, there is this trick.

Ordinary offerings to gods are looked down upon, but getting married is another matter.

In the past, villages that were hit by disasters often wanted to pray to the gods for help, but could not come up with decent sacrifices. At this time, there was an option. In most cases, they could be called universal sacrifices, and that was men and women with boyish bodies. .

Of course, it also depends on the specific requirements of the gods. If some gods don't want it or don't like it, then the sacrifice will be in vain.

Many people offered sacrifices to no avail, but some were effective, because most of the people relied on magic...

However, the Zhu family has a tool to communicate with the gods and can ask the gods in detail about their requests.

"Hurry and prepare! Open the altar and offer sacrifices to marry the gods." Zhu Xiazhi directly handed over the task to his son.

Zhu Boliang pursed his lips and whispered: "Father, has he decided to... fight?"

"Well...you need to channel the gods first." Zhu Xiazhi was noncommittal.

He wanted to take one step at a time, but Zhu Boliang had no choice but to take action immediately.

Soon the confession and the three animals were all prepared, a jade carving was placed on a high place, and everyone bowed and kowtowed.

Under the curling green smoke, Zhu Boliang soon fell into a trance, as if he had arrived in an ethereal land.

There was nothing there, only a majestic white light, and a tall figure standing there, looming, and as powerful as a mountain.

Among the stars above its head, the Rigel star appeared. In the center of the star star, three extremely bright stars shined side by side like pearls. They were Rigel, Rigel, and Betelgeuse.

Of course, Zhu Boliang knew that this was not the real deity, but just an incarnation of it listening to the appeals of the world.

This incarnation is equivalent to a spiritual magic weapon that can handle communication with countless people at the same time. It is also called the spiritual dharma body.

After Zhu Boliang communicated with him for a while, he exited the sleep-like scene.

"What's going on? Are the gods willing to get married?" Zhu Xiazhi asked quickly.

Zhu Boliang shook his head, which made Zhu Xiazhi sigh.

The god that the Zhu family knows is too noble, which is not a good thing. My status is too low, so it would be easier to get acquainted with gods of middle and lower status.

But then Zhu Boliang said: "The God does not want to fight against the destiny, but for the sake of my ancestors of the Zhu family, he is willing to take my noble daughter of the Zhu family as a concubine, and then sends an oracle to keep my Zhu family safe."

"This..." Zhu Xia was shocked.

He has only one daughter, and she is also the only noble daughter of the clan who has not left the court.

Want to marry a god as a concubine? Zhu Xiazhi hesitated for a moment. Marrying the gods meant that he would never see his daughter again. At most, she would only give him a dream in the future.

But he immediately felt relieved. His daughter would eventually get married. In these troubled times, he had never thought about which family he would marry his daughter to, just because he was weighing things.

From the perspective of family interests, marrying Miaohan to the gods seems to be an excellent choice. From now on, the Zhu family will be the in-laws of the gods, and they will definitely be safe in troubled times.

"However, Miaohan is far away in Gaomi. We couldn't get the news to Gaomi, so we asked God for help. How can we marry a girl?" Zhu Xiazhi frowned.

Zhu Boliang said: "This is not a problem. The parents ordered the matchmaker to make a marriage contract with the gods first, so there is no need for her to be present."

"If the marriage contract is certain, the oracle will come to the bald wizard wolf and tell him to retreat. Even if he has destiny, he would not dare not betray the god's face."

After hearing this, Zhu Xiazhi nodded repeatedly: "Then do this and make an agreement quickly to let the barbarian retreat."

The decision was made, and the Zhu family quickly got busy.

With lanterns and colorful decorations and shrines built high up, the whole Zhu Mansion suddenly turned into a festive place covered with red silk.

Zhu Xiazhi and the eldest lady sat in the high hall, facing the jade sculpture of the god and bowing several times.

Not to mention that Miaohan was not needed for this matter, and there was even no need for Yueqin.

According to etiquette, Miaohan only had one 'mother', and that was Zhu Xiazhi's wife. As for Yueqin, she was just a concubine. Even if Miaohan was her biological child, she could only be called 'aunt'.

Of course, because Zhu Xiazhi loves the musical instrument deeply, Miao Han can call his biological mother without following the etiquette in informal situations as long as he is not in front of the eldest lady.

Nowadays, marriage between gods is the most solemn occasion, and everything follows etiquette.

Zhu Xiazhi and his wife made a marriage contract with the gods on the orders of their parents.

Gods marry, and heaven acts as matchmaker!

In an instant, auspicious clouds gathered in Zhu Mansion, and joy reverberated endlessly.

The third uncle of the Zhu family, who was fighting the bald-haired witch wolf on the front line, was covered in blood. When he heard the sound of joy coming from behind him, he couldn't help but be shocked.

There was a bloody battle at the top of the city, with corpses piled up like mountains, and blood flowing like rivers... It could be said that it was completely ruined.

Suddenly hearing such a sound, the third uncle of the Zhu family could not tell whether it was joy or sorrow.

Looking back, Zhu Mansion in the distance was ablaze with red, as if a happy event was being planned!

"Ah?" The third uncle of the Zhu family was confused.

What's happening here?

When the third uncle of the Zhu family was distracted, the bald-haired witch wolf found an opportunity and struck out with his sword. The latter only had time to parry with the white jade flute.

Although the sword's intention was resolved this time, the jade flute suffered a blow and shattered with a crunch.

"Not good!" The third uncle of the Zhu family immediately threw the jade flute.

boom! This magic weapon exploded! Strong fluctuations swept across all directions.

The bald witch wolf was the first to bear the brunt and was sent flying out of the city.

The third uncle of the Zhu family also had a hard time. He vomited a mouthful of blood and was seriously injured.

He felt cold. Although the enemy was more seriously injured, he was able to suppress the bald witch wolf only with the blessing of the jade flute.

The latter has been getting stronger, probably because of destiny's help. Now without the jade flute, the outcome is unpredictable.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, in the daytime, a ray of light shone down, like stars and moonlight.

The bald wizard wolf seemed to have heard something, and his expression changed with great reluctance.

He hesitated under the city, and soon another monk flew over and said something to him.

The bald wizard wolf coughed twice, licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, stared at Anqiu City fiercely, and finally ordered the withdrawal of troops.

"The enemy has retreated!"

"Return!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The barbarians retreated, and the whole city cheered.

The injured third uncle of the Zhu family withdrew from the city and returned to the mansion only to know the cause and effect.

Married Miaohan to the God of Heaven as a concubine?

The third uncle of the Zhu family frowned slightly: "Miaohan is the high minister in Gaomi, and the situation in Qingzhou against the barbarians is also very good."

"We will fight to the death to defend the city, and at the same time order people to break out and find a way to ask for help from Gao Mi. Once the reinforcements arrive, we will definitely be able to defeat the bald-haired witch wolf."

"Why do you need to pray to the gods..."

Zhu Xiazhi said: "Third Uncle, the Witch Wolf has monks to help him, so our news cannot be spread."

The third uncle shook his head and said: "The monk doesn't dare to kill anyone. Let's choose brave and fiery people to break through in multiple ways. I expect that he will only intimidate and obstruct, and will not take action rashly."

"Since the monk showed up, he has made up his mind to help the Tufa clan. If he doesn't listen to the warning, he will definitely go on a killing spree." Zhu Xiazhi said.

"You fooled him! Xia Zhi, how would you know if you don't try?" said the third uncle.

Zhu Xiazhi smiled and said: "Why sacrifice the lives of soldiers in vain? Now that we are married to the gods, won't Wu Lang retreat?"

Now that the matter is over, the third uncle of the Zhu family will say no more.

In his opinion, the bald-haired witch wolf bypassed Gaomi, attacked Anqiu by surprise, and forcibly attacked the city, which was the way to death.

As long as Anqiu can hold on to Gaomi reinforcements, it will be a victory.

But in the end, Zhu Xiazhi's method also led to the retreat of the army, and he was marrying his daughter. What could he say? It just feels like a pity for Miaohan.

The matter has come to this, the sacred contract is certain and must not be violated, otherwise not only will the gods be able to unleash their wrath arbitrarily, but in severe cases, they may even be 'destroyed by heaven and earth'.

"Since the gods have come forward to ask Wu Lang to retreat, we should take this opportunity to ask Gao Mi for help." The third uncle of the Zhu family said.

"The enemy has retreated, why are we asking for reinforcements?" Zhu Boliang said in shock.

The third uncle of the Zhu family said solemnly: "You can't place all your hopes on the gods. The Tufa family has destiny. The gods only said to protect my Zhu family, but they didn't say to protect Qiu City from being destroyed!"

"Now that I don't have the jade flute and I'm injured again, if the bald witch wolf comes back, I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat him!"

"What the third uncle said is true." Zhu Xiazhi asked him to rest, and then asked his son to arrange brave men, promote officials, and go to Gaomi to spread the news.

However, it didn't take long.

Only one of these people escaped and it turned out that although the Bald Witch Wolf withdrew his troops, he did not retreat.

Instead, they sent rangers outside to continue the siege, and there were monks to help report the point, so no one could break through.

"What, he really won't leave?" Zhu Xia was surprised.

The third uncle of the Zhu family said coldly: "As expected, he was seriously injured. He just took advantage of the situation to give the gods face and recover from his injuries."

"The gods are the law-abiding ones of destiny and will not help us fight against those of destiny."

"When the Witch Wolf comes back, once Anqiu City is destroyed and the Zhu family falls into the hands of the Witch Wolf, the gods will certainly protect the Zhu family, but I'm afraid they will also let my Zhu family work for the Witch Wolf in order to comply with the ways of heaven!"

"By marrying Miaohan to him, you are tying the Zhu family to Hu Man's destiny."

Zhu Xiazhi was stunned, it seemed so.

He thought he was choosing between war and surrender, country and family, but suddenly looking back, he actually had no choice!

In other words, when his so-called 'battle' is to pray for the blessing of the gods, then both options are surrender...

Fortunately, he was still entangled, hesitating for a long time, and still having an ideological struggle.

In the end, I still couldn't defeat destiny.

Once the city is broken, he has no choice but to surrender passively if he doesn't want to die. In this case, it is better to surrender early. The result will be the same, and there is no need to have a daughter.

"Is this a blessing or a curse?" Zhu Xiazhi said blankly.

"Don't worry, wait for me to heal, the bald witch wolf wants to break my city, it's not that simple!"

The third uncle of the Zhu family said firmly and concentrated on healing.
