The angry howls drowned out the singing, and everyone who heard it changed their minds.
The Zoroastrian believers followed the sound and saw numerous small buildings and houses in front of them. Dozens of pillars of cooking smoke were swaying. It turned out that they had arrived at Xianglu Village.
To the south is the Luoshui River, surrounded by mountains. The official road passes through the village, and shops are built along the road... Obviously, such prosperity is inseparable from the favorable time, place and people.
In such a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, the roaring sound resounded through the mountains and fields, getting louder and louder than the other, and it became more and more arrogant: "Zoroastrian demon! You have lost your conscience! Kill my father and brother, and you will pay with blood!"
The three mages in purple lotus clothes quickly moved towards the front of Hongliu. In each hand, there was a staff as high as eyebrows.
The staff is completely black and its material cannot be seen. The spiral blade at the head of the staff is like a swirling flame, gathering at the top of the staff and converging into a pointed cone. The tail of the staff is equipped with a square and eight-sided hammer, which can be smashed on the ground casually, causing stone chips to fly everywhere.
.
The movements of the three Mages were even more bizarre. They dodged and shuttled among the dense crowds of believers. Not only were they extremely fast, but they never missed a single believer. However, within ten breaths of time, the three Mages arrived at the front of the red stream at the same time, but their breaths were steady.
usual.
Looking up, I saw a group of fierce Taoist priests blocking the wide official road.
The voices of the veteran Taoists who took the lead in shouting were loud and full of energy. They had obviously made great achievements in their spiritual practice. At this time, the Zoroastrian believers fell into a passive position because of the "preemptive move". People from Xianglu Village came out to watch the excitement.
The common people, at this time, also followed what others said and began to curse.
Magakang Saiyin spoke first: "Fellow Taoists, today is the day when our Zoroastrian religion welcomes the saint and carries forward the Taoist decree. Why do you speak rudely and slander the pure name of our Zoroastrian religion?"
Although the sound was weak, it penetrated into everyone's ears clearly. It made all the Taoist priests feel shuddering: there really are masters in Zoroastrianism! So many noisy sounds could not cover up this demon's faint voice.
A rhetorical question.
A man rushed out from among the Taoist priests. His beard and hair were mixed with black and white, and his old face was full of grief, anger and cruelty: "Monster! I, Wang Dacheng, was such a single seedling, but you Zoroastrian slaughtered me on the Tongyuan Canal.
Do you want to deny such a blood feud?"
Another Zoroastrian, Mage, also said: "On the day when the Yuan Canal was opened, our Zoroastrian religion practiced the holy law of 'public judgment of good and evil', and all those left behind were people who had done many evil things. If your crime was not unforgivable, you would have been released long ago."
, how can I ask you to cry and howl here? Moreover, hundreds of evil people have killed each other by killing each other. I, a member of the Zoroastrian religion, did not kill the killer, so how can I be regarded as the murderer?"
The sound was still not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly.
Kang Saiyin stood near him, without squinting his eyes, and reminded in a low voice: "Mina Pu, these Taoist priests are here deliberately to provoke. It's probably useless to reason with them. If we want to use force later, the three of us will have to do it."
If we join forces again, it is best to intimidate a few people who are taking the lead in order to avoid a melee between the two parties."
Another Zoroastrian mage also nodded and said: "Kang Saiyin is right. We are here to welcome the saint, not to start a dispute with others. It would be best if we can shock her, so I don't have to go on a killing spree during the Stone Pagoda Ceremony. It's in vain.
It hurts people’s lives.”
Sure enough, the Taoist priest Wang Dacheng's words stopped for a moment, and then he became furious: "The strong are respected in the world, who can tell you what is good and what is evil! You killed my dog, and this matter will never end! You are practicing Zoroastrianism.
What kind of bullshit holy law is that? You must first agree to it from me, Wang Dacheng!"
After Wang Dacheng finished speaking, a group of Taoist priests behind him began to make noises. All kinds of obscene words were thrown at the Zoroastrian believers, making all the believers look tense and angry.
"Killing for life is a matter of course! Since you Zoroastrian can do such outrageous things, you should have the consciousness to be surrounded and killed by your colleagues in the world!"
"What a bastard holy law! It's a big joke in the world! You actually talk about 'public determination of good and evil'. Are you a Zoroastrian demon? Are all of them reincarnations of Taoist Masters of the Sanqing Dynasty?"
"He keeps welcoming the saint. That saint whose origin is unknown is probably a piece of shit like 'a pair of jade arms that can be used as a pillow for thousands of people, and a tiny bit of red lips that can be tasted by thousands of people'! Hahaha!"
“I thought that Zoroastrianism was a sect that exorcised evil and corrected evil, but it turned out to be a den of obscenity with corrupt morals and a smoky air!”
"Don't look at the seriousness and hypocrisy of these monsters on the surface. In fact, behind the scenes! The women are incompetent and the men are debauched..."
"..."
The believers wanted to retaliate and scold each other, but there was a clear text in the "Good Words Chapter" of the canon: "Those who speak without meaning will have their teeth broken and their tongues rotten, and they will drink pus and die." Therefore, no one among the believers dared to violate the canon.
glare.
Shi Tali's face was indifferent, and he took a step forward and said: "Only the strong are respected in the world? Mr. Shi is ignorant. We in Zoroastrianism never rely on strength to bully the weak, nor do we succumb to rape, humiliation and violence. Between Taoism and Zoroastrianism, which one is stronger and which one is weaker?
, what does it matter? As long as we are allowed to enter the village, everyone will be in peace."
A tall and thin Taoist priest next to Wang Dacheng mocked: "We as Taoists do not allow evil spirits and heretics to run rampant. If we don't let evil spirits enter the stronghold, what can we do to me?"
Minap endured his anger, clasped his fists and saluted: "There is a proverb in China, 'Good dogs do not follow the rules, and evil dogs cut off people's paths.' I, the Zoroastrian Jilai, and your Taoist sect do not cross the river, so why are you making things difficult today? How can we pass?"
, Fellow Taoist, you might as well speak out."
The tall and thin Taoist priest suddenly raised his feet, spread his legs, pointed at his crotch and laughed loudly: "You only need to slip under the Tao Master's 'door of all wonders', and you can atone for your mistakes and realize the Tao."
The Taoist Master will open up the net at that time, and I don’t think anyone else will have anything to say, hahaha!”
After the tall and thin Taoist priest finished speaking, all the Taoist priests behind him burst into laughter. They all followed suit and spread their legs to let these Zoroastrian demons crawl under their crotches. Seeing this, the onlookers behind him also clapped and cheered.
Minap couldn't bear it anymore. He raised his staff with a clang, pointed at the tall and thin Taoist priest and said angrily: "Which Taoist priest are you from? This is too much! If you don't get out of the way, we will eradicate evil and do good deeds!"
"
The tall and thin Taoist shook the dust in his hand and said with his nostrils: "Master Tao is Tongxuan Guan martial arts teacher Ren Zizai. Do you want to fight? Master Tao happened to have itchy hands, so he tried his fist on you... Oops! You sneak attack!"
The Taoist was talking with great joy when he suddenly covered his chest, as if he had been hit by a hidden weapon. His face showed pain and resentment, but blood leaked from between his fingers.
When all the Taoists saw that these Zoroastrian monsters had made a move first, they drew their swords and swarmed forward, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Consein, Minap, and Shita Li looked coldly and quickly waved their staffs, knocking the seven or eight Taoist priests who rushed forward to the ground.
Minap was most frightened and angry: He clearly did not attack, but why did the tall and thin Taoist hold his chest and cry out in pain, and fell to the ground exhausted?
Kang Saiyin crossed the staff, blocked a wave of swords, and then threw the staff out! This black staff was neither gold nor stone, and its appearance was unremarkable, but it hit all the Taoist priests and made them retreat.
Kang Saiyin had already seen the confusion on Minap's face. Taking advantage of the moment when the Taoist priest was forced to retreat, he raised his hand with one foot and drew back the staff. Then he explained to Minap: "That Taoist priest is cheating! In advance, he
There is a blood bag hidden in the chest. I just pierced it on my own to make it look like we were sneak attacking. The purpose is to provoke a dispute so that we can take advantage of the chaos to surround and kill the three of us. By then, the sect will be leaderless and will have no choice but to be slaughtered!
"
After listening to the ceremony, Minap and Shita's expressions became more and more gloomy. The staffs in their hands were constantly swinging, and they were swung with ancient methods. Some of them were like the martial arts of Changsha: split, cover, tease, and when rushing, open the weapon wide.
When it is closed, it whistles and bursts; when it is picked, intercepted, blocked, and led, it is impartial and makes a clanging sound.
The difference is that the staff uses the power of the revolving blade and sharp cone to add two techniques: "spinning" and "stabbing"; it also uses the square eight-sided hammer at the end to add the "smashing" and "hanging" techniques. So the fight was instant
, and caught the Taoist priests who were running up by surprise.
The three Mages' footwork is agile, attacking and defending each other. If you look down from the sky, it looks like a rotating equilateral triangle, sometimes big and sometimes small, retracting and unfolding freely. It is also like a grinding wheel, with swords crossing wherever it passes.
Flying, blocking all the Taoist priests rushing up from the red current.
However, most of the hundreds of believers who came from Baiyufang City in Luoyang and gathered here were just ordinary Sogdian barbarians.
Some of them are merchants, translators, cart drivers, and craftsmen, and some are tricksters, fortune tellers, and hunters. They have no official status or property. Although they have some skills in riding and archery, very few of them have practiced martial arts. If it turns out that these people are not good.
Taoist priests charging in is like a pack of wolves charging into a sheepfold! It will only be a one-sided massacre.
Therefore, once the three mages take action, they will try their best. They are afraid that a Taoist priest will be put into the congregation by accident or negligence. At that time, many believers will be harvested in an instant.
However, the tall and thin Taoist covered his chest and backed away, quickly retreating behind the Taoist priests. After giving Wang Dacheng and other Taoist priests a few obscure looks, the Taoist priests immediately understood and quickly led a group of Taoist priests to wear clothes.
Three mages in purple lotus clothes rushed forward.
After the first few waves of attacks were blocked, Wang Dacheng and others suddenly understood: These relatively restrained Zoroastrian monsters are so skilled! Moreover, the offensive and defensive blocking moves are not like the Chinese martial arts, but rather unpredictable and weird.
extraordinary.
"Set up the formation!" Hearing the tall and thin Taoist shout, the Taoist priests from Tongxuan Temple retreated decisively, quickly set up a "Three Talents Formation", and attacked the three Mages again!
Wang Dacheng was a Taoist priest from Jingyunguan. When he saw the fellow Taoists from Tongxuan Guan performing formations, he also gave an order to all the brothers from Jingyunguan to step back to avoid being accidentally injured. When he saw the three Mages were instantly
The "Three Talents Formation" was swallowed up, and an indescribable feeling of joy suddenly surged in his heart: "Junior brothers! Use hidden weapons! Be more accurate and don't hurt the fellow Taoists of Tongxuan Guan."
Upon hearing this, the Taoist priests in Jingyunguan put away their swords one after another, and threw all the sleeve arrows, willow leaf darts, locust stones, money darts and other objects they carried with them into the "Three Talents Formation" from the pockets on their chests and sleeves.
"Ding ding ding ding..." The three mages, who were already overwhelmed, were caught off guard and were hit one after another.
Fortunately, they came prepared, and all the vital parts of their bodies were covered with chain armor. The harsh "ding-ding" sound was the sound of a hidden weapon hitting the chain armor.
But the hidden weapons thrown by Jingyun Guan were as dense as a torrential rain for a while. Some were blocked by Mage's chainmail, while others penetrated the "Three Talents Formation" and shot into the Zoroastrian believers. Almost every few seconds
As soon as he breathed, there was a scream. But it was the believer who was standing close to the front. Unfortunately, he was shot by a hidden weapon and fell down. He didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
The three Mages were so anxious that their staffs turned into afterimages, trying to break free from the "Three Talents Formation".
However, the "Three Talents Formation" comes from the ranks and has been tempered for thousands of times. It has long evolved into many mysteries of virtuality, reality, and offense and defense. The more impatient the mages are, the deeper they get stuck, making it difficult to break free.
However, the Taoist priests of Tongxuan Guan guarded the formation eyes and ran unhurriedly. Their bodies rushed alternately, and the swords in their hands turned into the formation's minions, and they cut out a shower of sparks on the shoulders and backs of the three mages. In addition, the scenery
The hidden weapons that Yunguan Taoist priests threw from time to time actually made the three Mages feel powerless in their hearts.
Yang Zhaoxi had already squeezed from the end of the red stream to the front. Looking at the fierce battle in front of her, her heart was complicated: she didn't want to see the three Mages killed on the spot, nor did she want to see the Taoist people being killed by Mages.
Like him, some Zoroastrian believers with some skills have also rushed forward. However, they did not imitate him and stand and watch the excitement. Instead, they rescued the injured believers and escorted them to the back of the team. The believers who had brought injury medicine,
They immediately gathered around and treated the injured to stop the bleeding.
Taoist priests are difficult to deal with and their staffs are heavy!
Seeing that the three mages had already lost their strength and seemed to be losing their strength, the eyes of all the Zoroastrian believers showed worry.
Yang Zhaoxi touched the Xuantong sword hidden under the lotus robe. After thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate, so he did not take it out. Instead, he picked up many small stones on the spot and gathered them in the sleeves of his robe. If the three mages once
When his life was in danger, he threw stones to save him.
At this moment, a whimpering flute sound rang in the sky, filled with sorrow and murderous intent, making people shudder.
Everyone on the field couldn't help but follow the sound, and saw a man wearing a green lotus robe, holding a bronze flute, who suddenly appeared. Before the Taoist in the Tongxuan audience had time to react, he quickly jumped into the "Three Talents Formation".
Everyone was still a little stunned, guessing the identity of the person. However, they saw the bronze flute being picked up, tapping or poking, and in an instant, four or five Taoist priests fell to the ground.
Where these four or five Taoist priests were, was the formation's eye. Once the formation's eye was broken, the extremely difficult "Three Talents Formation" immediately collapsed and could no longer gather the power it had just achieved.
Consein, Minap, and Shitali, who were still struggling to hold on, suddenly felt their hands loosen. They realized that they were finally freed from the formation, and they couldn't help but feel the joy of surviving the disaster.
Looking at the person in front of him again, his eyes suddenly became solemn, and he quickly put his hands together to make a flame and said: "Don't do any evil, and do all the good. God always bless you, the holy fire is blazing! I humbly pay homage to the Protector of Xuantu!"
