Day and night tour

Chapter 336: Double Dragon Roar

The cliff monk began to adjust his chess moves, preparing to slay the dragon.

He only made two moves when Zhou Xuan smiled faintly and asked, "Demon monk, you just told me clearly that my big dragon move was a useless move, so you didn't care about my moves. Why are you caring about me now?"

"Um……"

The cliff monk smiled awkwardly and said nothing. He just kept making moves to lay out a dragon-slaying chess plan. The black pieces then surrounded and killed the large white pieces.

After dozens of moves, the black pieces' path forced the white dragon to live in less and less space. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and chatted, "It suddenly occurred to me that the Prison Dragon Well had been abandoned, and the Dragon God of East Market Street had let it go. The six descendants of Zhaxing were also killed by the God of Suffering, and all of them were corrupted and died. Mingjiang Zulong also got a chance to breathe.
Since the Dragon God of East Market Street and the Ancestral Dragon of Mingjiang have both escaped, it means that once the power of the big dragon on the chessboard is strengthened, it may really become a major variable in today's battle."

Despite repeated excuses, the cliff monk refused to mention that his judgment was affected by Zhou Xuan's "persistent" and rigid behavior.

"The demon monk may not be good at other things, but he is good at being cautious."

Zhou Xuan laughed at himself and said, "However, I just wanted to take a gamble. After all, the resources that Mingjiang Mansion can mobilize are too few. The Dragon God and the Ancestral Dragon have become the last hope of Mingjiang Mansion. However, this hope is a little slim. The Ancestral Dragon is seriously polluted and its combat power is not good.

The East City Dragon God was also greatly affected in the battle at the Prison Dragon Well, and his foundation was damaged."

"Since there is little hope, why do we persist?"

"Some hope is better than no hope at all."

Zhou Xuan said again.

For a moment, the cliff monk couldn't guess Zhou Xuan's intention. Could it be that Zhou Xuan was just "seeking medical advice for his illness"? Was there no brilliant back-up plan hidden in it?

Moreover, he remembered a very important thing and asked Zhou Xuan again: "Master, if the Mingjiang Zulong and Dragon God are blessed by the big dragon chess power, they also need someone to control the dragon.

Who will control the dragon? Do you have a choice in mind?"

"Um……"

Zhou Xuan said: "The people who can control dragons are mostly concentrated in Jingchuan Prefecture. There are not many great dragon-hunting masters in Mingjiang. There are only four people who can control dragons. The first one is Yun Ziliang.

It's a pity that Lao Yun's body is broken and his incense is not strong anymore. It's difficult for him to control two Ancestral Dragons.

The second one is King Xishan. He can comprehend the true teachings of the valley, and is naturally a nine-stick incense of the dragon-seeking lineage. He is an excellent candidate for controlling dragons.
The third one is Master Wuya, who is a master of the 21st Zen and a dragon-seeking Taoist priest who has the ability to control dragons.

After talking about only three people, Zhou Xuan stopped talking, which aroused the curiosity of the cliff monk.

The cliff monk asked again: "Master, why do you keep us in suspense? Who is the fourth person?"

After Zhou Xuan placed a white piece, he pointed at himself and said, "I'm joining the game..."

"you……"

"I am also a Dragon Seeker disciple, why can't I control a dragon?"

"But you have hardly burned any dragon-hunting incense, and you have not learned any of the dragon-hunting methods."

“You can learn it now.”

"The ice is three feet thick, and it didn't freeze overnight... This remark from the young master is quite humorous."

The cliff monk almost laughed out loud at Zhou Xuan's words.

Zhou Xuan's expression was very serious. He pointed at the chessboard and said, "Look at these two places. Are they two-headed snake chess positions..."

The two-headed snake is when one chess piece surrounds another chess piece, but there are two false eyes in the surrounded chess piece, where pieces cannot be placed, so both the black and white chess pieces are alive.

After the Cliff Monk began to lay out his plan to slay the dragon, many black pieces were interspersed in an attempt to split the dragon's momentum. Unintentionally, two "two-headed snake" chess pieces were left on the chessboard.

"The two-headed snake chess position can be used to bless the ancient altar of Mingjiang Mansion."

"This... are you trying to seduce me into slaying the dragon? Once I slay the dragon, there will definitely be these two two-headed snakes?"

The cliff monk suddenly found that he had fallen into Zhou Xuan's trap inadvertently.

"How can it be called seduction? You are the one who wants to slay the dragon."

Zhou Xuan pointed to a "two-headed snake" on the upper side and said, "In ancient times, Mingjiang Prefecture liked to build large ancestral temples and blood sacrifices. There are three ancient altars alone.

The place where this two-headed snake chess piece is located is the Nanshan Mountain outside Dongshi Street - there is a totem temple there, which is an altar set up by the ancient tattooed tree tribe. Since ancient times, the first three gods, "Peng Hou", "Shan Zu" and "Xing Jun", concentrated their divine power and set up a feng shui formation on Dongshi Street to suppress the alien visitor - the Big Mother Star Pit. After that, the totem temple was abandoned.

I visited it a few days ago. Although the Totem Hall has been abandoned for a long time, its spirituality still exists.”

After that, Zhou Xuan pointed to another "two-headed snake" and said, "This chess piece is located in the center of the chessboard. It is the headquarters of the witches - the Witch God Temple. It is a well-known old temple in the martial arts world. It is guarded by witches day and night - it is full of spirituality."

"You actually changed your tactics a long time ago. Adding the power of the dragon was just a trick to deceive me. What you really wanted to do was to create a two-headed snake and bless the ancient altar?"

"I'm wholeheartedly seeking help from Zulong and the Dragon God, so I can't change my tactics so easily."

Zhou Xuan's eyes were sincere, and he smiled and said, "I just told you that I want to learn how to find dragons. It's not a lie. These two altars are the beginning of my learning how to find dragons."

When he said this, he bent his knuckles, tapped the chess piece at Tianyuan, and transmitted his voice to the ancient tree golden bell: "Witch Shang Wenjun, tree tribe Peng Sheng, I have blessed the Totem Hall and the Witch God Hall. You ask your tribesmen and disciples to connect them and activate these two ancient altars."

Shang Wenjun and Peng Sheng heard Zhou Xuan's voice at the same time, and asked again: "Young Master, we haven't found Zha Xing and Zhao Qingxiao yet, and we have no target to activate the altar-"

"The target of the two ancient altars is not Zhexing or Zhao Qingxiao, but the Sorrow Altar in Gangfeng Cave."

Zhou Xuan wanted to let the two ancient witch temples suppress the joint headquarters of the Sixteen Yin Halls. This time, not to mention the Cliff Monk, even Shang Wenjun and Peng Sheng were stunned.

For the witches, the altar is extremely important. It is the center of communication among the tribe. If this center is destroyed, wouldn't this force the mountain barbarians of the Sixteen Yin Hall to rebel?

"Young sir, the sad song altar cannot be destroyed." Shang Wenjun said.

"I didn't ask you to destroy the Sorrow Altar. Instead, I used the suppression of the Twin Witch Halls to help Liuyun Village of the Sixteen Yin Halls. I made the evil god they worshipped become a god with a very righteous origin."

Zhou Xuan said: "The evil god behind Liuyun Village is called the Nine Snake God. This evil god is actually the souls of nine snake women who entangled Xu Jingshan, the great literary saint 220 years ago. Now, we are suppressing it with our two halls and helping the Sorrow Altar to peel off the nine snake women that entangled Xu Jingshan one by one, so that Xu Jingshan can reappear in the world."

Shang Wenjun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, while Peng Sheng suddenly remembered something and said secretly, "Brother Xuan is about to start interpreting the King of Hell's hexagram."

Peng Sheng often went in and out of the Jingyi Shop on Dongshi Street, so he naturally knew that after Zhou Xuan was promoted to Xunlongxiang, he encountered two sets of Yama Gua in succession.

Under normal circumstances, these two Yama hexagrams have no solution.

The first hexagram was asked by the "Seven-Leaf Venerable" in Zhao Wuya's body, asking for help from the ancient Buddha.

The second hexagram was Xu Jingshan's obsession from many years ago - to seek help from Zhou Xuan, and ask Zhou Xuan to help find his soul and untie the restraints.

After Zhou Xuan's multiple verifications, Xu Jingshan is now the evil god behind Liuyun Village - the God of Nine Snakes.

Xunlong Tianshi relies on divination to help people, and he realizes the truth and accumulates incense in the world of mortals.

For ordinary fortune-telling business, the revenue from each business is not much, but for the interpretation of the God of Hell, the increase in revenue from each business is extremely exaggerated, not to mention other benefits.

Peng Sheng guessed that Zhou Xuan was about to start interpreting the hexagram, so he hung himself upside down on the ancestral peach tree, communicating with the tree's mind.

The tree god trembled and shook off the peach blossoms on the tree, bringing the will of the tattooed ancestor to the hearts of every member of the tree clan scattered in Mingjiang Prefecture.

"The Great Ancestor and the Great Ancestor have issued an order, ordering the tribe members to activate the Tree Tribe Totem Hall by tattooing."

The White Deer Priest ascended the heights and called out,

All the tattooed tribe members' tattoos suddenly emerged from their skin. Among the thousands of tribesmen, there were thousands of tattooed evil spirits, and they flew towards the Totem Hall on East Market Street in a mighty manner.

Thousands of evil spirits, carrying the devout prayers and firm beliefs of the tattooed people, rejoiced, jumped, and danced in the totem hall, just like the ancestors of the witch tribe in ancient times, dancing around the fire and singing to the night.
With the prayers of the tribesmen and the blessing of the two-headed snake chess, the ancient altar of the Totem Hall suddenly broke through the ground in the South Mountain and flew into the Gangfeng Cave...

"Disciples of the Witch Hall, listen up. After falling asleep, connect the Ten Thousand Merciless Red Threads to the Witch God Temple."

Shang Wenjun also gave an order, and all the witches in Mingjiang Mansion, no matter where they were, either leaned against the door or sat against the wall around them, pretending to take a nap.

Dozing off is the way the witches practice. This lazy behavior, which looks like "closing their eyes and resting their minds", is actually their way of sensing the breath of heaven and earth.

As more and more witches joined the sleeping group, Mingjiang Prefecture seemed to have become a city of "red silk". Countless ruthless red silk threads were interspersed in every street and alley, like a dense web.
However, tens of thousands of red threads finally pointed to the "Witch God Temple". The old temple, which was now covered by a layer of tower, also broke out of its shell and released all the splendor of thousands of years ago.

"A black bird descended from the sky, bearing the fate of the people..."

Amidst the extreme solemnity, the prophecy of the insane ancient high priest was hidden, bursting out from the Witch God Temple, and the old temple flew to the sad song altar like the Totem Temple.

These three temples are not isolated. When the three altars gather together, they attract each other, causing the Sorrow Altar to rise from the Gangfeng Cave like a giant.

The three palaces became three ancient flying stars, dancing in the sky in an "irregular" route.

There is no rule at all, but it has become another rule.
At least for the sixteen evil gods who were hiding somewhere in Mingjiang Mansion at this moment, the dancing of the flying stars in the three halls was like candle flames in the night sky, and they were like moths flying into the flame. Everything seemed no longer important, including the believers, the infinite avenue, and even their own lives, which had all become dust-like existences.

No one cares what the dust looks like, whether it is square or round, straight or crooked. Who would pay attention?
The sixteen evil gods only focus on the flow of flying stars, as if only in the flow can they find eternal life.

They came out of their hiding places and walked a long distance like pilgrims, bowing their heads every three steps, and prostrating themselves for a long time after five steps.
Following closely, cautiously, but with enthusiasm,

Mingjiang Mansion was very large, but in front of those evil gods who could fly and hide, it was pitifully small. After a short while, the sixteen evil gods gathered at the feet of Feixing in the Third Hall, sitting on the lotus throne, looking up and witnessing the most beautiful beauty in their hearts.

"The Nine Snake Gods entered the Flying Stars... The Nine Snake Gods entered the Flying Stars... The Nine Snake Gods entered the Flying Stars..."

The trajectory of the three halls seemed to be revolving around a certain light spot, and this light spot was what they called a flying star.

The huge body of the Nine Snake God suddenly flew up, and its heart overlapped with the flying star light. The Three Palaces released the powerful witch power, like an invisible hand, crushing the cross bones of the nine snake bodies of the Nine Snake God one by one.

Every time a horizontal bone was crushed, a snake would quickly rot and wither, like a wilted eggplant hit by frost, falling from the main body and being eaten by the other evil gods as food.

The second snake body, the third snake body... until the ninth snake body fell off, the Nine Snake God no longer had that dirty and ugly appearance, it became a young scholar in a green shirt.

The scholar closed his eyes slightly, lying on the flying star, as if having a sweet dream. The scholar who had been sleeping for a long time, Xu Jingshan, the scholar who had the destiny of a great sage in the literary world 220 years ago, saw the light of day again...

……

Xu Jingshan was freed from the nine snake women's restraints.

Zhou Xuan was sitting in front of the chessboard. The "Four Emperor Coins" in his Taoist robe seemed to have come to life and were jingling against each other.

Zhou Xuan also felt a comfortable, hot feeling in his chest.

whoosh...

The four imperial coins all flew out from Zhou Xuan's Taoist robe and landed on the chessboard, with the side with the god statue facing upwards.

The images on the Four Emperor Coins are the images of the four great Taoist gods in the Jing Kingdom's Time Realm.

"The Great Emperor of the South Sky", "The God of the North Platform", "The Leader of the East Palace", "The True Lord of the West Valley",
The copper coin statues of these four gods all have the appearance of "eyes without pupils" and "form without spirit". If you look at them on a normal day, you will feel that these four gods lack some charm.

At this time,
A set of Yama's hexagrams has been solved, and the Four Gods have black pupils in their eyes, which is like the "finishing touch" to make up for the lack of charm.

The four statues raised their hands at the same time, pointing like swords, and pointed heavily at Zhou Xuan's forehead.

——Four copper coins immediately jumped up, and made a crisp "ding" sound one foot in front of Zhou Xuan's eyes. They overlapped each other, and after the power suddenly condensed, it continued to burst out, hitting Zhou Xuan's brow with great force.

Boom!
Zhou Xuan only heard the sound of thunder. The next moment, his soul turned into dozens of phantoms, which were knocked out of his body by the four-sided coins.

One Zhou Xuan became a row of Zhou Xuans. In order of front-to-back order, the later the "Zhou Xuan" was, the lighter the color of his body was. He became a pile of scattered "cards".

But the next moment, as the Four Emperor Coins scattered again and lost their charm, Zhou Xuan's "scattered cards" came together again and folded back exactly, and his spirit returned to its place.

Zhou Xuan opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a strong smell of burning incense in his body.

He took a look in the secret realm and found that the two combined incense sticks of "Seeking Dragon" and "Escape Armor" were not only entangled more tightly, but also burned up more than half of them.

A set of Yama divination can burn more than half of the incense sticks.

The burning of such a vast incense actually attracted the Dragon God of East Market Street and the Ancestral Dragon of Mingjiang Mansion to howl at the same time.
The sound of dragon roars resounded throughout the entire Mingjiang City.

When Zhou Xuan first started looking for dragons and had accumulated enough dragon-looking energy, he was recognized by two ancestral dragons. At that time, the two ancestral dragons roared at the same time - but those roars had the arrogance of the ancestral dragons and a sense of alienation.

This time, the sound of the dragon's roar already contained a hint of submission.

The Dragon Seeking and Sensing School has always been a master of dragon taming.

The acupuncture school borrows the power of the dragon, but humans are weaker than dragons.

The Induction School hides a big dragon in its body and uses the big dragon as its weapon. People are more domineering than dragons.

The two ancestral dragons roared and howled with a sense of submission, which made Zhou Xuan feel like asking for a fight.

Two big dragons are going to help Zhou Xuan, who has cultivated his powerful strength with just a set of hexagrams, to fight against Zha Xing and Zhao Qingxiao.

"Don't worry, it's not time yet."

Zhou Xuan spoke to comfort Zulong...

……

In Dongshi Street, Yun Ziliang and King Xishan sat on the ground. The two of them did not participate in the bloody fight against the Zoroastrians and the pursuit of Zhaxing.

King Xishan needs to rest as the battle at Prison Dragon Well has caused him great losses.

Yun Ziliang decided not to join the encirclement and suppression because he was "useless". His influence had completely declined and he had a hard time defeating even the last Zoroastrian disciples. Otherwise, it would be hard to say who would be the one to do the encirclement and suppression.

In addition to these two,
Yuan Buyu also joined the group sitting on the ground.

"Old Yuan, you have great skills and strong fighting ability, why don't you go and encircle and suppress them?"

Yun Ziliang asked.

"The painter asked me to protect King Xishan. Master Zhou and Master Jiu are also hiding in the fog."

"Oh, Fox King, you are so impressive. Most of the masters in Pingshui Prefecture are here to protect you alone." Yun Ziliang teased King Xishan.

King Xishan smiled but said nothing.

And at this moment,
There were two dragons roaring in Mingjiang Prefecture, their roars like sharp swords piercing through the clouds and clanging like metal and stone.

Everyone quickly raised their heads and looked towards the sky.

"Shuanglongyin, what my apprentice is doing..." Yuan Buyu murmured.

"We have created a climate for finding dragons."

Yun Ziliang clapped his palms, listened carefully, and said: "The two dragons have already expressed their intention to surrender. The first Yama Gua has been cracked - Xuanzi's dragon-seeking incense has been cultivated to at least the sixth level."

"Two dragons surrendered? Has this ever happened among the dragon-seeking Taoists?" King Xishan was a little surprised and asked Yun Ziliang.

"Had."

"Who?" King Xishan asked again.

"I."

Yun Ziliang said: "But the two dragons that submitted to me are both great dragons, not Xuanzi's two ancestral dragons. I have said long ago that Xuanzi is the Dragon Seeker of our Canglong Mountain Ganying Sect!

The Xunlong lineage has been passed down for two thousand years, and there are nine generations of "mountain ancestors" in the sky. No one can be compared with Xuanzi. "

"Shut up and let me blow first. That's my apprentice."

Yuan Buyu was very angry. His master hadn't even had a disciple yet, but Lao Yun got there first.

"Xuan Zi is our three disciples."

Yun Ziliang said.

Zhou Xuan's four halls were introduced to the incense and gods by Yuan Buyu, and became storytellers.
Twenty-four pictures of gods taught by Taohua Zushu, and the "Tattoo Hall" was completed.
Yun Ziliang then taught him the method of finding dragons.
Now, the fourth incense stick is taught by King Xishan with the true teachings of Xigu, combining Dunjia and Xunlong into one.

Three people sat together, they were all Zhou Xuan's teachers.

"From now on, the three of us will have to rely on our apprentice to become famous."

Yuan Buyu said jokingly.

King Xishan smiled calmly and said, "I have to wait a while. I want to wait and see whether you can comprehend the two boxes of sutras in the valley and realize that those who achieve the Tao are inaction and those who achieve the saints are immeasurable."

While King Xishan was still holding a cautious attitude, the ancestral peach tree in the distance, with two unusually thick branches akimbo, covered with peach blossoms, seemed to be saying: "Our Xuanzi has made great progress."

……

The cliff monk was both envious and hateful.

I envy Zhou Xuan's ability and skill. In the chess game of heaven and earth, he can increase the popularity of incense at an astonishing speed.

In such a serious chess game, you should just play chess well. However, as you played, you actually increased the incense price by a lot. This is truly a miracle that has never happened before in history.

As for hatred, the cliff monk hated his own stupidity. He had originally released Zhou Xuan's "Big Dragon Force" well, but he became suspicious and actually took the initiative to slay the dragon, allowing Zhou Xuan to achieve the two-headed snake chess position, triggering two altars and breaking the "Yanwang Gua" which was extremely difficult to solve.

"Young Master, you are looking for dragon incense. I am afraid you have burned three or four inches?"

"More than that, at least five inches."

Zhou Xuan made a "please" gesture and said, "Demon monk, please continue to slay the dragon."

"..." Cliff monk.

Looking at the hesitant and conflicted expression of the cliff monk, Zhao Wuya couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Whether to continue slaying the dragon has become the eternal question - to take action or not.

If you don't kill the dragon,
With Zhou Xuan inciting the roar of two dragons and the two dragons looking very excited about fighting, if he were to continue to gain momentum, they would really burn out all the dragon-hunting incense in one go, and there would be big trouble.

It is true that Zhou Xuan is a chess player.

However, there are two chess players on his side. If Zhou Xuan puts down his chess pieces and enters the game himself, it will also work according to the rules.

The Lord of the Twin Dragons has joined the game with his own body. This is the biggest variable...

What if it’s a dragon slayer?
The monk on the cliff was afraid that this was another big trap, like a "two-headed snake" trap, and as he was playing chess, he stepped into the trap.

"Let me think about it. The current chess situation is quite complicated." The cliff monk coughed and hesitated about holding the piece.

Zhao Wuya said, "It's not the chess game that's complicated, but your current mood. Your heart is in turmoil."

The monk on the cliff cursed inwardly: You little baldy donkey, you are talking without any concern. If you were in my place, facing a monster like the Great Master who keeps using weird tricks, you would be in a mess too!

"How do I make this move? I will ponder for a moment. Please don't rush me."

The cliff monk holds a black piece in his hand, his mind wavering...
