After Zhang Yu returned to the continent, he immediately took the leaders of the various factions and went straight to Hongshan to Mi Guang and the two factions.
Everyone is a monk who has read Chapter 4 of the book, so along the way, the escaping light comes from the sky, with a majestic momentum, like flowing fire flying into the sky. After noticing this, many wandering creatures in the continent avoided it one after another and watched this scene.
People who saw the scene sent messages to the prefectures, counties and even the two governments.
Now that the two factions of Hongshan and Miguang have no leaders, it is naturally impossible to resist this force. However, Zhang Yu captured these two factions in just one day, and all the disciples of the faction were merged into Xuan Mansion.
Although Zhong Lie and Mei Yizhi have not yet handed over the seal and secret method, this is just a small matter.
With the surrender of these last two factions, all the factions in the outer region have been merged into the Xuanfu. In a substantial sense, the Qingyang Xuanfu has reunited the forces that have been scattered for more than fifty years into one.
However, Zhang Yu also knew that some people would not want to see such a result, and even the two governments, which had been relatively harmonious with each other, might change their attitude towards them.
After all, in terms of etiquette, the Xuan Palace is higher than the two palaces.
In the past, Xuanfu only had such a status, but could not interfere with matters within the continent at all. However, now, Xuanfu not only has the name, but also has the power to intervene in these matters.
He knew that this was unavoidable. After all, no one wanted to have another person pressing down on their head. The disintegration of Xuanfu before was exactly what most people wanted to see.
But it doesn't matter, he believes these people will adapt quickly.
After settling the affairs of the two factions and the affairs of the leaders of each faction, he returned to his residence in the Academy, where there were still many letters from various states waiting for his approval.
In addition, due to the threat of Shuangzhou and some other special reasons, the outposts of the foreign sects could not abandon their positions, so this time when he came back, Taoist Wanming and two elders from Chengchang were left to look after the rear.
The disciples there also need to take turns arranging to come back and register their names. These things cannot be completed in ten and a half months. It is already approaching the end of the year, so we can only postpone it after the previous year.
Zhang Yu spent the first New Year's Eve in Kaiyang Academy after returning to Tianxia. Although most of the teachers and students in the academy went back to celebrate the New Year, those creators all used their studies to celebrate the New Year.
The palace was their home, so they hung up joint lanterns in the school palace and pasted festive red paper-cuts everywhere, so it didn't look deserted.
He stood in front of the glazed wall of the golden platform, looking at the fireworks and firecrackers that kept flashing outside, while Miaodanjun spun around at his feet, and from time to time would turn into dozens of himself, chasing each other and beating each other.
Qingxi walked in from the outside at this time, bowed to Wanfu, and said: "Sir, the New Year's banquet is ready."
Zhang Yu nodded and greeted Mr. Miaodan. The little ocelot immediately followed him and walked downstairs with him.
After New Year's Eve, he received many people who came to pay New Year's greetings. On the sixth day of the lunar month, he had time to go to Xuan Mansion.
Yun Chen also came back two years ago. Although it was during the New Year's Day, he was still dealing with affairs. For true practitioners, a retreat usually lasts for several years or even more than ten years, so it does not matter much to the New Year's Day.
value.
Seeing Zhang Yu's arrival, he immediately invited him into the palace and said: "Xuanzheng came just in time. I have something to tell Xuanzheng. After the New Year, the two governments sent a letter saying that the war in the north was tense and there were some difficulties in allocating and turning around materials. So,
There may be some cuts in what was promised to us."
As soon as Zhang Yu heard this, he understood that it must be that some people in the two palaces saw that Xuanfu's strength had increased greatly this time, so they started to cause trouble in some places.
He can be sure that if he cares about this matter, it will only involve repeated back and forth, and there will be no results.
He said: "In the previous battle, we gained a lot of trophies, which can be sent to the two governments."
Yun Chen understood what he meant and said, "Okay, let me negotiate this matter with the two governments."
Zhang Yu asked at this time: "Do you have any explanations for Yun Daoyou, Zhong Lie, and Mei Yizhi?"
Yun Chen shook his head and said: "These two people, like Yu Jian, have made an oath in their hearts, so they never asked for anything useful. They just knew that the name of the true cultivator who was traveling with them was Zhu Li.
He is indeed a monk in the spiritual realm."
Zhang Yu thought for a moment, and it can be seen from Zhong Lie's words that there is someone behind him. Although the specific identity of this person is not known now, he can drive the true cultivator, and he can also make the two Xuanxiu sect leaders swear an oath for him. This
In fact, it is already a relatively obvious clue.
But at this time, the people in Shuangzhou are the ones who need to be solved immediately, not to mention that there is still something that may be found in Shuangzhou that is related to the territory. The rest can be put aside for the time being.
After some more discussions with Yun Chen, he was originally going to go to Zhu Xuanshou's place again, but Yun Chenyan said: "Teacher is in retreat these days, but he will be out of retreat at the end of the month. The teacher also said that there are some words
I'm about to talk to Xuan Zheng, but Xuan Zheng will arrive at that time."
Seeing this, Zhang Yu said goodbye to Yun Chen and left the Xuan Mansion. He did not go back to the academy, but went to the boundary gap to have a banquet with Fan Lan, Qi Wu and a group of disciples from the East Courtyard.
A few days later, I took some things from Wu Ze's house. After coming out, I went to the Fangtai Road station.
The location of this Taoist sect is very important. If the Shuangzhou people want to use a large-scale army to raid Qingyang, then this place must be captured, so Taoist Wanming, Cao Fangding and others are now arranged to take care of it here.
.
Taoist Wan Ming saw him arriving and after receiving the courtesy, he said: "Xuan Zheng came just in time. There is something that I want to report to Xuan Zheng."
He gave the order, and immediately a disciple brought up a long jade box. He pointed at it and said: "This was delivered to the sect on the first day of the Lunar New Year. The attached letter and signature stated that it was given to Xuan Zheng.
It looks like something important, but we dare not open it without permission."
Zhang Yu felt it in his heart and knew that there was nothing wrong with this thing, so he took it over and said, "But who sent this thing?"
Taoist Wan Ming said: "It's hard to know that this jade box was discovered outside the station by a disciple who was out on inspection."
Zhang Yu thought for a while, then took the jade box out of the lobby and came to the residence arranged for him by the station. He placed the long box on the desk, flicked his sleeves, and put the lid on the box.
A scroll was revealed inside.
As soon as his eyes fell, the picture scroll flew away on its own, and the backstage slowly opened, revealing a group of colorful patterns. At first glance, it looked like it was mixed up after the color materials were spilled.
This pattern is very confusing, and nothing can be seen at all. However, if you look deeply with the light of the heart, you can find that some figures have an extremely weak response to the light of the heart, and they should be painted with special color materials.
Zhang Yu stretched out his hand and pressed it. In an instant, these figures turned into thin golden lines one by one, separated from the picture, and then connected and joined together again in the hall, and then appeared in front of him.
, but it is a map that is not too detailed.
He looked at the large picture hanging in the air and outlined with gold lines. It was not difficult to tell that there were two places drawn on it. They were pressed together for the convenience of drawing.
Judging from the terrain outline, it is somewhat similar to the original lost Mizhou and Duzhou.
He waved his sleeves and took two steps forward. He took a closer look and thought for a moment. If he had not guessed wrong, this was probably a map of Shuangzhou!
His eyes moved slightly. Shuangzhou was his next target. If this map was true, it would be convenient for him.
He had considered how to deal with Shuangzhou before. This place was definitely not equivalent to the ordinary states and counties in Qingyang. Before losing contact with Qingyang, Duzhou and Mizhou were directly under the jurisdiction of Yujing. Except for population,
In addition, in fact, it is not much worse than Qingyang Shangzhou in all aspects. In some places, it may even be better than Qingyang because it can directly get the support of Yujing.
Moreover, the current Shuangzhou is very likely to be involved with some forces in the continent, and the hidden power cannot be underestimated.
This is why the two palaces' request to Xuanfu is only to contain Shuangzhou, not to exterminate it, because the two palaces also know that this is impossible to achieve.
In fact, although Shuangzhou is considered huge, it is not impossible to deal with it.
For example, he can directly lead the cultivators to carry out mysterious weapons or magical weapons for a surprise attack.
With the vast territory and military power of Qingyang Shangzhou, he is afraid that a small group of foreign troops will use such tactics to deal with him, let alone Shuangzhou. Even if he cannot destroy this place, he can still cause huge damage to it.
of destruction.
Of course, in addition to these, there are more and more complicated things to consider, but the premise of all this is that the location of Shuangzhou needs to be found first.
This map pointed him in the direction, but its authenticity has yet to be determined.
If this map is true, then the person who sent this map must know Shuangzhou very well. This person is undoubtedly more valuable than this picture. If this person can be found, then he believes that the person he has encountered so far
At least half of the problem can be solved.
So where should I find this person?
This person had placed the things directly in front of the station, obviously not wanting to reveal his identity.
But this person actually left a clue.
Zhang Yuzhuan returned to the desk, his eyes focused on the colorful pictures, and the light in his eyes flickered. After a moment, a hand appeared in his eyes, but it was just like light, shadow, smoke, and could be seen at any time.
As the smoke spread outwards, an erratic figure of a person gradually condensed.
It can be roughly seen that this is a monk of medium stature.
He thought for a moment, then took a pen from the case, and then stroked a few strokes to sketch it out. It can be seen that although this person has no facial features, he shows a unique movement and calmness.
.
He gave instructions to find Taoist Wan Ming and Cao Fangding. When they both arrived, he pointed at the picture and said, "Do you two know this person?"
