Chapter 145 Why Are You Taking So Many Female Apprentices?

A peach tree grows among the mountains.

The branches are stretched out, and pink peach blossoms are blooming on them.

In a short time, the whole Xiaohan Mountain changed its appearance. It could no longer be called Hanshan Mountain, but Taoshan Mountain.

In this door last year today, the peach blossoms on the faces of people are red. The human face does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling at the spring breeze. These words are now used in Xiaohanshan Temple, which is also very appropriate.

This thousand-year-old temple has been completely wiped out.

Everyone opened their eyes in shock and watched, witnessing this scene that changed the world.

People in the world only say that moving mountains and filling seas and moving stars are the means of immortals, but now they have changed the world casually, and Yu Rendong has opened a stunning beauty, so why not?

At this moment, the Black Armored Army and the children of the aristocratic family shrank their heads one by one.

They no longer dared to offend the group in front of them.

Standing in mid-air, Zhang Ming glanced at the rosy peaks, and felt relieved.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations on completing the preaching mission! 】

[You have won two lucky draw opportunities! 】

A clear notification sound came from the ear.

"The difficulty of this preaching task is not low, and I have given two chances to draw a lottery!"

Zhang Ming couldn't help being delighted.

Speaking of which, this fight against Xiaohanshan Temple is no longer a simple struggle to win, but a struggle of comprehensive factors such as cause and effect and accumulation.

Regardless of Li Ergou, Qingquan, or Lu Xueqing and Zhanhong, as long as they make a wrong step, they may lose everything.

Although that Xuan Ci didn't make a single move, but he was by no means easy to get along with.

However, there is no rush for the lottery draw for the time being. It is necessary to take a bath and change clothes at such a sacred moment to save up your luck.

He pressed the head of the cloud and landed in front of the burned ashes of the temple gate.

Peach blossoms are rustling all around, and there are bursts of quiet fragrance in the icy cold wind.

"Daoist Qing Hui!"

Guo Xiang, Yin Xue and Xia Houchun stepped forward to salute.

Zhang Ming nodded, and walked towards the group of Black Armored Army and aristocratic children in front of the mountain road.

The entanglement between him and the current Holy Majesty has not really come to an end.

"All benefactors of the Black Armored Army, these lay disciples from the Xiaohanshan Temple are prisoners of the poor, and should not be taken away by you."

As soon as his words came out, the expressions of the two groups of people on the opposite side changed.

Under the order of the Governor of Qi, the Black Armored Army intends to bring Qi Ling and others back to Dongling County. This is to pave the way for Qi Ling and win the hearts of these aristocratic families at the same time.

As a beneficiary, Qi Ling, on the one hand, is escorted, so he doesn't have to worry about safety along the way;

However, this matter was destroyed by the Taoist in front of him.

Qing Hui Daoist was right, they were sent to the Xiaohanshan Temple as lay disciples, in response to the edict of adoring Buddhism and restraining Taoism.

Now that Xiaohanshan Temple has been destroyed, they are indeed prisoners.

"..."

The captain of the Black Armored Army had a sullen face, and finally cupped his hands and said: "Everything will be done according to the arrangement of Daoist Qing Hui!"

After speaking, he showed an apologetic expression to Qi Ling.

Circumstances are stronger than people.

It's not that he doesn't want to obey the order of Sheriff Qi, it's that he can't afford to offend him.

Qi Ling's face was as ugly as if he had swallowed Xiang, and he mumbled: "I..."

Zhang Ming looked sideways at him: "Why, do you have an opinion?"

Qi Ling turned pale in an instant, and hurriedly said: "No, no, I have no objection!"

This is the ruthless person who killed the entire Xiaohanshan Temple's eminent monks. As a prisoner with a low cultivation level, how dare he raise any opinions.

Seeing him deflated, Guo Xiang couldn't help showing a cheerful smile at the corner of his mouth.

After the Heijiajun finished speaking, he didn't dare to stay any longer, so he left quickly, got on the back of the goshawk, and flew down the mountain in a hurry.

Only a group of children from the aristocratic family were left in a panic.

Zhang Ming turned around indifferently, gave Guo Xiang and Xia Houchun a wink, turned his back to Qi Ling and the others and said, "Since they are lay disciples of Xiaohanshan Temple, let's kill them all!"

As soon as the words fell, Qi Ling and others fell to their knees and began to howl and cry.

"Daoist Qinghui, please forgive me! We were also deceived by that Xuanci,

I have never prayed to the Buddha at all! "

"Yes! Daoist Chang Mingjian! We are at odds with those bald donkeys. We have been humiliated and humiliated in various ways in the past month, and we have never surrendered!"

"Daoist Qinghui, we are all devoted to Taoism, and we swear that we will not be at odds with bald donkeys and gambling and drugs, and we will have no two hearts!"

"..."

The performances one by one are no longer exaggerated, for fear that if they shout less, they will be killed first.

Xia Houchun and Guo Xiang looked at each other, remembering the instructions of the Lord Guo before departure, and immediately understood the meaning of Daoist Qinghui.

bass--

Xia Houchun drew his saber in his hand, and replied, "Master Qing Hui, wait a moment, I'll kill them right away!"

A few timid children from aristocratic families wet their pants on the spot.

Qi Ling prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Captain Xiahou, please forgive me! My Qi family and Guo family have long been related by marriage, so they are all family members! Captain Xiahou, Miss Xianger, please forgive me!"

They no longer had the toughness of the confrontation just now.

Xia Houchun's face was gloomy, and he walked step by step, without giving them any face.

"Captain Xiahou, please wait!"

At this moment, Guo Xiang suppressed a smile, pretended to be unbearable, and said.

Xia Houchun stopped immediately and listened respectfully.

Guo Xiang glanced at the children of the aristocratic family, saluted Zhang Ming respectfully: "Master Qing Hui, although these people are hateful, they are all the pillars of Dongling County, please be merciful and spare their lives. "

[Recommended, Mimi's reading and chasing books is really easy to use, download it here, everyone can try it quickly. 】

Zhang Ming's eyes showed satisfaction.

This was the plan he had made with Guo Liqing before the trip.

According to Guo Liqing's original intention, the matter of saving the children of the aristocratic family should have been left to the Lingshu Temple to win the hearts of Dongling County.

However, Zhang Ming had no interest in this, so he simply became that villain.

And let Guo Xiang and Xia Houchun be the people who win people's hearts.

Originally, the appearance of the Black Armor Army had already interfered with Guo Liqing and Xia Houchun's arrangements, but now that he made a move, everything returned to the plan.

Xia Houchun's face was cold, but his eyes couldn't help showing gratitude.

"Since Miss Xiang'er is pleading, then spare their lives!"

Zhang Ming folded his hands and ordered casually.

Although the Lingshu Temple won, it should not let these aristocratic families put in their favor, otherwise it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of many forces in the Jin Dynasty.

Now the reputation has brought back a city for the Taoist sect, but it has annoyed the aristocratic family of Dongling County and the county guard's mansion, so that the water in the pool will become more muddy.

Just leave it to Guo Liqing on the surface.

The city lord of Nanling City can only stand on the opposite side of Buddhism after the matter of Zen Master Huilun.

It doesn't matter how much he still has in his heart toward the current Holy Master.

People's hearts are difficult to distinguish, and people's hearts are even more difficult to express.

As long as there is this incident, it will be like a thorn in the way between the court, the Holy One, the Buddhist gate and the family.

The children of the aristocratic family who knelt down and begged for mercy heard that Guo Xiang's plea was successful, and hurriedly cried and thanked him: "Thank you, Daoist Qinghui!"

Then, they showed flattery to Guo Xiang.

"Miss Xiang'er, please forgive me for not knowing Mount Tai! If I, Chen Youliang, have the opportunity to take charge of the Chen family, I will definitely follow the lead of the Guo family in Nanling City!"

"So am I, Liu Xuande!"

"Girl is kind, please accept my younger brother!"

"..."

If there were no black armor guards, they would have to rely on Guo Xiang and Xia Houchun on their way back to Dongling County.

If you don't take good care of this person, if Daoist Qing Hui gets upset and kills them casually, it will be terrible.

Qi Ling's face was ugly, but he still said respectfully after all: "Miss Xiang'er, Captain Xiahou, it's all Qi who has blind eyes, and almost ran into the two of you, and you two will be lenient!"

Guo Xiang blinked her eyes twice, and suddenly said: "Qi Ling, I am willing to plead for mercy, but you can't! Captain Xiahou, this man is a dignified man, so bad that he is bleeding, please kill him! I will deal with the consequences. Come on!"

Xia Houchun frowned slightly, not approving, but still walked out holding the knife as promised.

Qi Ling immediately knelt on the ground in fright, and shouted: "Miss Xiang'er, please forgive me! Miss Xiang'er, no matter what, you and I are destined to get married..."

This guy dares to mention it.

Guo Xiang's face turned cold, and he snorted, "Qi Ling, if you talk again, you will be crushed and buried under the peach tree."

Qi Ling also came to his senses, it turned out that Guo Xiang didn't like him very much, and he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.

Xia Houchun was getting closer and closer.

"Qi Ling, if you want me to spare your life, I will write a contract to dissolve the engagement right now. As long as you sign it, you can live."

Guo Xiang said at this time.

Qi Ling was startled.

My fiancée wants to divorce me?

No, I'm not married yet, so I can't say it's Xio, it can only be said that I haven't gotten together well.

He immediately nodded and said: "Since Miss Xiang'er is unwilling, Qi must obey."

Only then did Guo Xiang greet Yin Xue with satisfaction: "Sister Xue, take out the deed I wrote!"

Yin Xue reluctantly let go of the handle of the knife, and took out a letter from the bundle.

It turned out that Guo Xiang had already prepared everything before he set off. Regardless of whether the trip was a blessing or a curse, whether it was life or death, he made up his mind to break the engagement.

Qi Ling bit his finger and pressed his fingerprint on the contract.

"Miss Xiang'er, please speak kindly in front of Daoist Qing Hui and spare Qi's life!"

He carefully put away the resentment in the corner of his eyes, and said respectfully.

Guo Xiang took back the contract and said with a satisfied smile: "Captain Xiahou, let him go!"

"Yes, miss!"

Xia Houchun retracted the knife and returned to its original position.

Only then did Qi Ling and the children of the aristocratic family breathe a sigh of relief.

"But...if I let you leave here, it would make me look like a bully."

Zhang Ming said suddenly.

Everyone was shocked, did he want to go back on his word! ?

Immediately, I heard the Taoist priest Qing Hui continue to say: "Death crimes can be forgiven, but living crimes are hard to forgive. If you are poor, your practice will be abolished. Let's start a new life!"

Before he finished speaking, golden threads erupted from his body, passing through everyone's bodies.

boom--

They just felt as if their bodies were being emptied all of a sudden, and they fell to the ground.

Immediately, someone shouted in horror: "My cultivation...my cultivation is gone!"

And cleverly endured the pain, kowtowed and shouted: "Thank you, Daoist Qing Hui, for not killing me!"

For a time, chaos abounded.

Their cultivation has been abolished by Zhang Ming, if they want to cultivate, they have to start over.

After finishing all this, Zhang Ming waved his hands impatiently and said, "Xiahouchun, send them back to Dongling County. If someone is disobedient on the road, just feed the wolf quietly."

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone immediately closed their mouths, not daring to shout.

They have seen what it means to be ruthless.

Xia Houchun couldn't bear to look at Zhang Ming, and said to himself that Daoist Qinghui was obviously a compassionate person, so why should he act so deeply as a bad guy.

However, he still clasped his hands and said, "Yes, Xia Houchun will leave!"

Then, he led a group of children from the aristocratic family and went down the mountain.

After they all disappeared, Zhang Ming turned around and asked, "Guo Xiang, if you didn't take the step of destroying the marriage, Qi Ling and this group of children from the aristocratic family will definitely remember your kindness from the Guo family."

"However, you trampled Qi Ling completely without dignity in front of everyone. He didn't attack on the spot, but endured it again and again, fearing that he hated you to the bone."

"Aren't you afraid of ruining your father's plan by doing this?"

Whether it was the matter of getting married, or arranging for Xia Houchun to bring back the children of the aristocratic family, Guo Liqing's plan was to befriend the prefect's mansion and the aristocratic family of Dongling County.

Guo Xiang's actions backfired.

After Qi Ling goes back, he will definitely grit his teeth with hatred for the Guo family in Nanling City.

The county guard of Qi has lost face, and he will not let it go.

Although Guo Xiang is young, she is very intelligent, and she can't see the twists and turns in it.

If she was really stupid, she wouldn't have acted so naturally with Zhang Ming and Xia Houchun just now.

"Daoist Qing Hui, Xiang'er really doesn't want to marry him..."

Guo Xiang's eyes were bright, and he said wronged, "I asked Sister Xue to inquire about it. This Qi Ling has been in the land of flowers and willows since he was a child, and his reputation as a romantic is known throughout the city."

"The county guard of Qi asked him to come to Xiaohanshan Temple not only to respond to the worship of Buddhism and Taoism, but also to make him feel at ease. How can Xiang'er like this kind of person, and how can he marry him?"

She curtseyed to Zhang Ming, and said resolutely: "If you let Xiang'er marry him, you might as well die!"

Yin Xue nodded aside, indicating that what she said was true.

Zhang Ming pondered for a while.

This emotional matter is what you love and what I want, and it really shouldn't be forced.

"That's all, it's just that you have offended the Qi family of Dongling County so badly, how will it end then?"

He looked at Manshan Peach Blossom and asked.

Guo Xiang put away her weeping expression, forced a smile, and said softly, "Daoist Qing Hui, since you are not afraid of being such a villain, and you are not afraid of offending the entire Dongling County...what is Xiang'er afraid of?"

"You burned the Xiaohanshan Temple and drove out the Black Armored Army. You have already offended the prefect's mansion and the present Holy Majesty."

"Not to mention, when you were betting against Abbot Xuanci, Dou Jun, the commander of the Black Armored Army, tried to capture and kill Daoist Yiqing."

"There is also the Wang family of Dongling County...the Bachelor of Li Ci and the ancestor of the Wang family died tragically, and the enmity is already irreconcilable."

"Even if they don't come, you still have to ask them to understand why the Yushoumen and the Dongling royal family colluded together to deal with Lingshu Temple!"

She can see it clearly, connecting one thing together.

After finishing speaking, Guo Xiang paused for a few breaths, and then said respectfully again: "These matters are entangled together, and you, the governor's mansion and the family of Dongling County can no longer live in peace."

"Xiang'er has confidence in Taoist Priest. Maybe by that time, Dongling County will be in your hands. So, why should Xiang'er be afraid? It's them who should be afraid."

Yin Xue's eyes widened after hearing this, how could this young lady think so much?

Zhang Ming looked at this girl in a green jacket with a pearl on her neck, and showed a rare hint of admiration.

Being stared at by them like this, Guo Xiang couldn't help pinching the pearl around her neck with her hands, her dark eyes shrank, and she showed an embarrassed smile.

"I... am I wrong?"

Zhang Ming nodded and said with a smile: "Clearly organized and understandable, but the poor have underestimated you."

Guo Xiangshun climbed up the pole and asked, "Master Taoist, do you think I can enter the Temple of the Spiritual Pivot?"

Yin Xue's eyes also lit up, looking expectantly at Daoist Qing Hui.

These two people are still thinking about worshiping the Lingshu Temple.

Zhang Ming couldn't help laughing: "No!"

The Lingshu Temple has now resounded throughout the Jin Dynasty, but it is not so easy to enter.

Besides, why do you accept so many female apprentices?
