Lu Zhi immediately realized that the way he was able to escape underground must be the Taoist priest's method. Such a method was truly unheard of.
Immediately afterwards, a tree of vines stretched out from behind and stopped behind him. A pod was held out of the vine. Standing in the pod was a female cultivator with a fluttering skirt. From the other direction came a female nun with flames dancing in her eyes. She was as thin as a bone. Chai's monk. Lu Zhi recognized these two people as Fairy Caiwei and Master Skeleton, whom he had fought against in the past two years.
Lu Zhi did not hesitate, and the cloud belt around his neck immediately wrapped around Master Skeleton, but he immediately retracted it as soon as he was halfway through the move. Master Skeleton stepped back, and his position was taken by the Lord of Qingqiu who had just chased him.
On the other side, Fairy Caiwei also moved away, and Pan Yuanjun appeared there.
Lu Zhi squinted his eyes and looked at the old Taoist sitting on the top of the tree directly in front of him. His sharp voice echoed in the palace: "Who are you?"
The old Taoist smiled: "Duanmu Chongqing in Gezao Mountain."
A new battle started again, with Duanmu Chongqing, the Lord of Qingqiu, and Pan Yuanjun as the main attackers, while Fairy Caiwei and Master Skeleton were fighting on the outside, continuing to kill Lu Zhi.
In several directions farther away, Hong Zesou, Hu's ancestors and grandsons, and Chen Shandao were guarding each side. While recovering their mana, they built a second layer of encirclement.
Seeing that the situation was back under control, Zhao Ran breathed a sigh of relief. He remembered the seven springs at the northern foot of Mount Hakone that Liang Xiao had talked about, so he went to find them. As expected, they were not far away. He simply soaked in the hot spring pool and used a few of the nearly exhausted ones. The flying magic weapon that gathered all the magic talismans was taken back and installed in the thick steam. After finishing, he gave a flying charm to Zhang Juzheng, Liang Xiaoyou and others, asking them to submit official documents to Hakone Hot Spring.
At the end of October, there was a light snowfall, and the snowflakes moved down and fell into the water of Hakone Onsen, turning into mist and steaming up. Zhao Ran soaked most of his body in the pool, drank a glass of wine comfortably, and slid down a little further, feeling the spiritual energy in the pool constantly infiltrating into the sea of ??spiritual energy.
Putting the wine glass back on the tray in the pool, the tray carried the wine pot and wine cup and floated towards the opposite side, floating in front of Liang Xiaoyou. Liang Xiaoyou also filled a cup, sipped it into his mouth, and sighed with satisfaction.
There is a Yingzhou maid kneeling beside the two of them. Next to them is a small table with more than ten small porcelain plates filled with various kinds of food. The maid picked up the conch slices with bamboo chopsticks, lightly dipped them in the sauce, and gently brought them to Liang Xiaoyou's tongue. Liang Xiaoyou chewed with his eyes closed for a moment, and sighed again:
"Counselor Zhao's place is better. I can relax a lot every time I come here."
Zhao Ran ate the fish and said with a smile: "I was just soaking in the pool, but you made me do so many tricks."
Liang Xiaoyou said: "This set of things and these maids were originally created by the priests. They can't do anything else. You won't let them What did Director Zhao say? By the way, you won't let them get another job. , they will lose their jobs, what good will it do to people¡¯s livelihood? What good will it do to their credibility?¡±
Zhao Ran smiled and pointed at Liang Xiaoyou: "You want to enjoy it yourself. You don't dare to leave it in the city. Under my banner, you actually talked about re-employment. It's not surprising. But it also shows that you are really involved in people's livelihood issues." Yes, you put your heart into it.¡±
Liang Xiaoyou said: "Numbers are magical. When I was in the Ming Dynasty, I listened to Taoist Master Lun counting various numbers all day long without feeling anything. When I arrived at Luoye Island, Taoist Master Lun was still counting those numbers, which made me feel annoyed. Death. Now that I have arrived in Yingzhou and am responsible for preaching alone, I suddenly feel different. Behind those numbers is a person. Every increase or decrease is closely related to the things he has done. It is really magical and interesting. very."
Zhao Ran read the official documents that Liang Xiaoyou brought today, put them by the pool, and said: "It is indeed not easy. The credibility of Odawara Taoist Temple exceeded 1,000 yesterday. If it is stabilized before the end of the year, there will be greater growth next year." .I agree with the idea of ??transforming slums. If we do it well, our credibility will inevitably explode next year, but we must pay attention to a few issues. First, the explanation must be clear and thorough. If it is not done well, it will be fed back on the demolition. , what is most likely to arouse the resentment of Yingzhou people is probably at this link"
Just when he said this, he suddenly stopped and Liang Xiaoyou urged: "You continue!" Then he turned to the maid and signaled: "The wine is gone, please add another bottle."
"I heard Zhao Ran say: "Old Liang, you'd better stop drinking and get up quickly." As he said this, he quickly got up from the pool and dressed.
Liang Xiaoyou was puzzled: "Okay, what's wrong?"
Zhao Ran urged: "Your Taoist Master Jialun is here, hurry up!"
Liang Xiaoyou was shocked: "Why is she here? Doesn't she know about it? She came to arrest me? Oh no, no, no"
Zhao Ran said: "Don't panic, stay calm, she just arrived at the bottom of the mountain."
Liang Xiaoyou jumped up from the pool and waved the maid away: "Go and hide."?¡Take your things away¡¡±
After Lun led Di up the mountain, he came to the hot spring pool and saw Zhao Ran and Liang Xiaoyou each holding a bamboo stick in their hands and pointing at a large wooden frame.
When I got closer, I saw a huge map of Yingzhou hung on a large wooden frame, with arrows of various colors scattered all over it. Seeing himself, Liang Xiaoyou woke up from his meditation as if waking up from a dream: "Why are you here?"
Lun Daidi rolled her eyes at him and said to Zhao Ran: "General Counselor, I just want to ask, after planning for so long, Zeng Ruming is ready, why didn't he march to Kyoto, but turned around and went north?"
Zhao Ran smiled and pointed to the map and explained: "Don't be impatient, Master Lun. Go north instead of south. This is a choice made by the fleet command after careful consideration and was approved by the joint meeting."
Lun Daidi said angrily: "Kyoto, Osaka, and Kobe did not send troops here, but ran north? How many people are there in the north? If they have opened up the north of Beidao, there are a million people in total?"
Zhao Ran said: "You know, 1.6 million people, that's a lot of money."
Lun Daidi stabbed the location of Kyoto on the map with her finger, directly poking a hole, and asked: "Here, in this area, there are more than five million people! I know that my job is to preach, and fighting has nothing to do with me. But if we take this area down a day earlier, won't we be able to gain confidence a day earlier? As for the north and even the North Island, a partial army is enough!"
Zhao Ran explained: "Taoist Master Lun, Beidao is to the north of us, and Kyoto is to the south of us. If we don't solve our worries, how can we go south with peace of mind? There are risks! Besides, it's winter now, and there will be heavy snow soon. Going south is dangerous. How many mountains and ridges lie in the middle? The mountain road is not easy to walk."
Lun Daidi was about to refute when she was hugged by Liang Xiaoyou and walked out. As she walked, she said: "The general counsel is busy with business, let's leave first."
Zhao Ran said goodbye with a smile from behind: "Taoist Master Lun, Lao Liang, come back next time."
