Wet viviparity

Chapter 230: Change of situation, determination of storm

In Xiaoxi Mountain, as the day for the Yinpan examination and reporting approached, more and more Yin officials from this area arrived here. Most of them were children from Heguan and Sibeiyun Temple. They felt a little intimidated and even frightened in their hearts.

Lanyinfang is far away from Taiping Mountain and close to the Liling Mountain Range. The people in the area include natives who migrated from Liling, Chinese from the Ba Dynasty, and naturalized people among the natives. It is like a cultural melting pot.

Living here, even those who came from Taiping Mountain would be more or less infected with wildness and tend to behave unorthodoxly, not to mention that these Yin officials were originally disciples of Heguan and Sibeiyun Temple, and they seized the Yin positions in Lanyinfang in order to better plunder the spiritual resources here.

As for this time's cheating in the examination, in front of this sinister judge, he might be dismissed from his official position, and he will be dismissed completely and held accountable for his past crimes.

In such a negative mood, everyone started to inquire about the background of the sinister judge as soon as they arrived at Xiaoxishan.

I don't know where the news came from, but it was said that Yin Pan was originally the guardian ghost of the two monks on the Yifeng Mountain. Later, he was transferred to the Ministry of Examination for his merits and was listed as one of the judges in the Ministry of Examination.

As everyone was inquiring further, there was new news.

This time, Yin Pan brought two disciples from Shenzhuyi Peak. The two were brothers from different families. They practiced together on the peak since childhood, and later went to the South China Sea to listen to Taoist teachings from Master Qianhuan.

Some people heard that these two had made some name for themselves in the Nanhai branch of Taiping Mountain in recent years, calling themselves the Two Lords of Linshui and Jiehuo, and their "technique of curing and summoning water monsters and fire demons" was very powerful.

In a temple to the east of the Xiaoxishan Villa, Yin Pan actually settled down there and discussed Buddhism with the nunnery's abbess, "Nangyi Nun", for several days in a row, almost delaying the time.

At the same time, in the villa, Zhang Xiaoyuan stared at the south and talked to his soul-binding deputy Huyan.

"The situation in our area has not been stabilized for a long time, so the strength of our disciples on the mountain cannot be gathered together. How can we carry out the secret investigation of Liling as instructed by the "Toad Society"?"

After hearing this, Tiger Eyes could not help but feel discouraged and said, "The conflict between Daojun and the two monks will naturally extend to you and Jueguang over time. Although this is not a dispute between Daoists, it is not something that can be easily reconciled.

Now Heguan Temple and the Four Beiyun Temples have all surrendered to us, and Jueguang's defeat has already been revealed.

But I didn't expect him to come up with this plan, to use the help of this Yin judge of the Examination Bureau to deprive the Yin officials in the Yin Bureaus of their power, so as to wipe out the old party members of Heguan and Sibeiyun Temple in the other courtyard."

Having said that, Tiger Eyes opened his apricot-yellow tiger pupils and looked in the direction Zhang Xiaoyuan was looking. That was the south, where Liling was and Yintai Mountain was.

"If Jin Tong can't stand the pressure this time and hands over Yinguan affairs to the Xu and Zhao brothers, then we will have no excuse to stop them from taking over, and the good situation may be gone forever."

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't say anything, but just stared at the south for a long time.

He said slowly: "Once the momentum is weakened, I will ask for help from the mountain. If I follow Jueguang's example, this matter will have no end."

After a long time, a sharp Dharma will emerged from Zhang Xiaoyuan's body, causing the surrounding stone chips to fly everywhere, and said: "Jueguang is ignorant, we should end this together."

Tiger Eyes heard a hint of murderous intent in these words and was shocked. You must know that Zhang Xiao attaches great importance to the overall situation. As long as it is in line with the interests of the mountain and the overall situation, he can endure it even if his own interests are damaged.

It seems that Jueguang's desperate behavior has finally touched the bottom line of this Taoist disciple.

Zhang Xiaoyuan retracted his gaze and looked at Tiger Eyes, "Write a letter to cousin Zhang and ask him if he is interested in fighting with Lords Linshui and Jiehuo. If he agrees, I can make the decision and let him choose any treasure from the secret pavilion in the Fayan Courtyard."

"This"

Hu Yan hesitated a little. The secret chamber and the treasury in each branch altar are the foundation of this altar. The items inside are all registered in a book. The mountain and the branch altar each hold a copy, and they are checked every year.

Even though Fayan Courtyard was established only three or four hundred years ago and its heritage is very shallow, the things in the secret pavilion’s Dharma treasury are quite valuable to the Three Realms.

"It doesn't matter!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan knew that Huyan was afraid that he would open the Dharma Library privately, thus leaving a handle, so he said with a smile: "Jintong has helped us a lot. This time, we will have to compete with Jueguang to see who is better. If this succeeds, it will be legitimate for me to move into this library.

Besides, this is what he deserves, and this is the reward I should give him.”

The only thing that comforted Zhang Xiaoyuan here was his cousin. Since he came to him, he rarely showed up, making it impossible for Jueguang to contact him. His stance was firm.

At the foot of Yintai Mountain, Ji Ming soon received a jade slip of letter. After scanning the contents, Ji Ming thought to himself, "Inviting me to fight and help! It seems that Zhang Xiaoyuan has finally given up the delusion of peacefully seizing power.

This is fine. If I keep making trouble here every day, it will really hinder my practice in the long run."

Ji Ming called Qian Geng and Shu Si, asked them to change into the ochre-yellow robes, tie the sash, do a Taoist bun, and wear the Hunyuan scarf. Then he was carried to Xiaoxi Mountain by the Void Warriors. Along the way, he analyzed the two brothers with Shu Si and Qian Geng.

Shu Si has lived in Feixiong City near Taiping Mountain for many years and knows a thing or two about the people on the mountain.

According to Shu Si, the two brothers were not like ordinary Taoists. They liked to make friends widely on Shenzhu Yi Peak. They went to Master Qianhuan of the South China Sea and made friends with both the orthodox and the unorthodox sects.

The two brothers had just reached the third realm when they went to the South China Sea. Over the years, they had at least subdued the Yang Dragon and were in the middle stage of foundation building.

In addition, the two Lords Linshui and Jiehuo have trained water and fire warriors. It is said that the famous "Water Monster and Fire Demon Summoning Technique" is also performed by the cooperation of the two water and fire warriors, which is far beyond the reach of ordinary spells.

"Junior brother!" Suddenly, a voice called out near Xiaoxi Mountain. The caller was Senior Brother Zhu Wen from Heguan. He said, "The judge has arrived at the other courtyard and will examine the officials' merits and deeds soon. I was afraid that Junior Brother would miss the time because of his retreat. Fortunately, fortunately."

After Zhu Wen finished speaking, he first looked around, then led the way in front, leading Ji Ming down from the clouds to a secluded deserted pavilion. "Junior brother, in response to your kindness, all of us Heguan disciples have already sided with Zhang Xiaoyuan, but now this incident has happened.

Now the dark judges of the Examination Bureau are coming with great force. All of us who work in the dark bureaus in other places have come to me and want to seek an explanation from me. What do you think we should do?"

Standing in the pavilion, Ji Ming listened patiently to Zhu Wen's words.

He believed that the children of Heguan were suffering, but Ji Ming did not believe that Zhu Wen could be persuaded to come to him.

No matter what those young men are like, their first identity is that they are young men of Heguan. If Zhu Wen is not confused and panicked, it will be useless no matter what these people say.

Ji Ming's eyes moved, and he asked tentatively: "Brother, you are not thinking of changing your sect, are you? Or have you already..."

Zhu Wen's face changed several times, and then he said calmly, "Junior brother, you know that the disciples from Heguan and Sibeiyun Temple came here to plunder the resources here to enrich our own temple.

If that treacherous judge gets serious, we will not have a good ending."

"I see!"

Ji Ming nodded and said, "But the situation is still unclear. Brother, you are so inconsistent, so who knows whether it will be good or bad."

Senior Brother Zhu looked very determined, as if he had made up his mind. Ji Ming knew in his heart that not everyone could be as confident as he was in standing firm.

So Ji Ming suggested: "Brother, why don't you wait for a day or two, the situation will soon become clear."

"No, Jueguang won't let me wait for a day or two. This time, the day of the examination will be the day for him to start his attack." Zhu Wen sighed and said, "The current situation is like this. The general trend is overwhelming. I have no choice."

Ji Ming wanted to persuade them again, but then he changed his mind and thought that there would be chaos in this sect in the future, and his senior brother and the disciples of Heguan might make mistakes, so he didn't say anything more.

Just as he was about to leave the pavilion and escape into the air, he unexpectedly met another person, who turned out to be Zhiguang.

"Didn't you also cast Jue Guang?"

Jiming asked.

Zhiguang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head decisively and said, "I don't have any secret position in this recipe, and I'm not as powerful as your Senior Brother Zhu, so I'm naturally not afraid of Senior Brother Jueguang's solicitation.

Besides, you treated me with sincerity, so I will return the favor with loyalty."

Hearing this, Ji Ming's expression improved a little and he nodded to Zhiguang.

It's strange to say, the more Ji Ming treated Zhiguang with cold words, the more respect and love the other party showed him. This phenomenon existed before he gave him the Annual Ring Red Pill.

"Are you worried about the impact of this conspiracy and the two brothers?"

Zhiguang asked.

Ji Ming shook his head and said nothing. At this point, these details no longer had any impact on the overall situation, because in the Fayan Villa, Zhang Xiaoyuan had already decided to forcefully suppress Jueguang and end this game of internal friction.

Jueguang was the first to break the rules.

"Hey~"

A loud eagle cry echoed from Xiaoxi Mountain.

Then a handsome giant eagle spread its wings on the top of the mountain, holding an ancient bell in its claws as sharp as steel forks, and flew down from the top of the mountain. Its wingspan of seven or eight meters swept over the forest, lowering the treetops covered by its wings by three points.

"Roar!"

A fierce tiger with a body length of two meters and brocade patterns rushed out from a ravine, leaped high onto a mountain, roared like thunder, rolled back and forth in the mountain, and then shouted: "Jueguang has gone against the law and confused people, and now he will be suppressed under the Regret Lake in Xiaoxi Mountain."

"nonsense!"

"nonsense!"

Two tall Tibetan men wrapped in golden light rushed over diagonally, knocked open a part of the hilltop, and pounced on the fierce tiger, shouting, "Tiger Eyes, how dare you slander Master Jueguang."

At this time, the sound of drums rang out.

There were two blue and red clouds pressing down on the horizon, and on each of the two clouds stood three water warriors and six fire warriors, who were either beating drums or waving flags, making a huge noise.

In the midst of the strong men, the two Lords Linshui and Jiehuo stood in the middle, one in white and the other in red. They said to the handsome eagle, "Brother Zhang, we brothers have just arrived in this precious land. Please don't make things difficult for us."

Zhiguang, who was watching from below, was mesmerized and knew that something big was about to happen. Suddenly, he was surprised to find that Jintong beside him actually stood up.
