Chapter 173
Mingjiao is called the Devil’s Cult. It’s really not nonsense. First of all, the origin of Mingjiao is different from the major sects in the Central Plains. Mingjiao originated from Persian Zoroastrianism. There is not a small difference with the values ​​​​of the Central Plains.

Driven by this kind of values, the followers of Mingjiao often do things that the sects of the Central Plains can't see, or even completely violate the local values ​​of the Central Plains.

That's why it's gradually called the Devil's Cult.

Mingjiao high-ranking people are generally weird people who are both good and evil. Sometimes they are more righteous than famous heroes, and sometimes they do things that are not much worse than the demons in the legends of the world.

Follow the example above, Mingjiao disciples often do things capriciously, regardless of what is good or evil.

Now is the critical moment when the six sects are besieging Mingjiao. In order to protect the safety of Mingjiao, several Mingjiao disciples naturally don't care about the life of a stranger.

After the sword-wielding disciple finished speaking, the other three disciples also acted rather aggressively, their faces showing murderous intent for a moment, and their eyes flickered with coldness.

Zhou Ming couldn't help frowning.

Although he came here to protect Mingjiao and didn't want to offend others, it doesn't mean that a few ordinary Mingjiao disciples can bully him, let alone these guys want to kill him.

When the face turned cold, a gust of cold air burst out from the body, like the coldest wind blowing in the twelfth lunar month of winter, the four Mingjiao disciples shivered involuntarily.

"You...you really are...the thief of the six sects!"

In an instant, several people were covered with a layer of frost, and their teeth were chattering from the cold, but they didn't take a half step back. Instead, their eyes showed a fierce look, and they wanted to kill Zhou Ming even more.

Because judging from Zhou Ming's strength, he might really be a thief sent by the six sects.

As I said before, Mingjiao is not only a power in the Jianghu, but also a religious force. The members of the sect believe in religious doctrines. At the moment, the six major sects are besieging, but they are still within the sphere of influence of Mingjiao. They are definitely diehard believers .

Not to mention that Zhou Ming just let out a chill, even if he wanted to kill them, they wouldn't necessarily be afraid.

Such a guy who is not afraid of death really makes Zhou Ming a little helpless.

He simply tapped the acupoints of several people and left by himself.

After this incident, he didn't want to inquire about the location of Guangmingding, but went to the vicinity of Kunlun Mountain to inquire.

At this time, the Mingjiao General Altar will command the front-end congregants, and at the same time, Mingjiao's support will come one after another. When these personnel move around, the position of the Bright Summit will definitely be exposed.

As long as Zhou Ming finds the right person and stays with him, he should be able to know the location of Guangmingding.

After doing this, it didn't take long before he found an ordinary congregation who sent a message, and it seemed that he wanted to send information about the battle between the front line and the six sects to Guangmingding.

Following this congregation, Zhou Ming soon came to Guangming Peak, and by the way, he also met the person who now controls the power of Mingjiao.

Bright Left Envoy Yang Xiao.

The power structure of Mingjiao is respected by the leader, and below the leader are the left and right envoys, the four great Dharma kings, and the five scattered people.

Once under the hands of Mingjiao leader Yang Dingtian, Mingjiao can be said to have developed to its peak, and strong people from all walks of life gathered together, but after Yang Dingtian disappeared mysteriously, all the strong people from all walks of life in Mingjiao dispersed.

Guangming Right Envoy Fan Yao, Zishan Dragon King, and Golden Lion King all left Mingjiao for various reasons.

The Wusanren had a conflict with Yang Xiao, and they didn't go back to Guangmingding.

The White-browed Eagle King even directly defected from the Ming Sect and founded the Sky Eagle Sect.

On the top of the light, only Yang Xiao and the Blue Wing Bat King were left, but there was a gap between the two, which caused the Blue Wing Bat King to leave.

But the so-called showing loyalty at a time of crisis, now that the six sects are besieging Mingjiao, these guys who have already left Mingjiao have returned to Guangming Summit one after another.

When Zhou Ming came to Guangmingding, when he saw Yang Xiao, he also saw Monk Peng among the five scattered people.

After the messenger disciple passed the news from the front line to Yang Xiao, Yang Xiao's complexion changed and he let out a long sigh.

Monk Peng said: "Yang Xiao, why are you sighing here? What happened on the front line, let's talk about it!"

Yang Xiao said: "The masters of the six sects came out together, and the momentum was like a broken bamboo. The Mingjiao disciples on the front line couldn't resist it at all."

"Then what should we do?"

Yang Xiao sighed again, but did not speak.

For a while, he couldn't think of any good way.

Monk Peng thought for a while and said, "Why don't we simply withdraw all the disciples from the front line?"

Yang Xiao frowned: "Withdrawing the front-line disciples, wouldn't it mean that the six sects will drive straight in?"

Monk Peng said: "The battle between the rivers and lakes is completely different from marching and fighting. They will drive straight in. I teach my disciples to retreat to Kunlun Mountains, so that they can take advantage of the geographical advantage.

And other masters in the teaching are also rushing to support, but the time is too urgent and it hasn't arrived yet.Abandoning the front line and retreating while fighting can also delay time and wait for the arrival of other masters.

At that time, we will be waiting for the masters of Mingjiao to gather on this Bright Summit and fight them to the death. It will be better than letting the masters of the six sects behead our disciples now. "

Yang Xiao paced back and forth to think, and after a while, he said, "Okay, then act according to Monk Peng's plan, order the front line to retreat for now!

However, during this period, the masters of the six major sects cannot be ignored, and I invite you to help the monk, not to kill the enemy, but to stop the enemy. "

But Monk Peng sighed, and said: "We are all sons and daughters of the Chinese nation. At this moment, the Yuan people are raging and occupying our Han people's great rivers and mountains. I don't want to drive out the Tartars, but fight here... Alas, let the Yuan people pick it up for nothing... Cheap."

Yang Xiao said: "Monk Peng, I know what you think, but this time it's not my Mingjiao who provokes their six sects, but the six sects took the initiative to attack and kill my Mingjiao!"

"I know……"

Monk Peng sighed again, and then left.

Seeing this, Zhou Ming couldn't help but change his expression.

When many people write novels, especially this kind of novels related to history, they always adapt some historical figures to make them martial arts, fairy tales, or even fantasy.

Among the five scattered people of Mingjiao, some are real figures in history, and some are immortal figures in folklore.

Monk Peng is one of them.

Historically, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the leader of the Red Scarf Army, one of the rebels, was Monk Peng.

Jin Daxia wrote it into Yitian Tulongji and became one of the five scattered people of Mingjiao.

He is also the only one among the Five Scatterers and even the entire Mingjiao who has a relatively high ideological awareness and a relatively large structure. He believes that Mingjiao and the six sects are all Han Chinese, and they should work together to deal with the Yuan people instead of fighting each other.

Such a person is obviously more suitable to assist him in completing the main task than other high-level Mingjiao officials.

Zhou Ming immediately performed lightness kung fu and followed Monk Peng.

Yang Xiao didn't notice the whole process.

Monk Peng was alone, after packing up his things, he was about to go to the front line, but suddenly saw a figure appearing beside him, and said in horror: "Who!"

After all, he is also a well-known master in the Jianghu, but unexpectedly someone can get close to him within half a foot without making a sound.

This person... what martial arts!

Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I'm here to support Mingjiao. I wanted to go to Yang Xiao. But now, I think you are more to my taste. Maybe this Mingjiao is better in your hands than in Yang Xiao's. "

Monk Peng saw sweat on his forehead.

This can't be said casually, even in the Ming Cult, power entanglements still exist.

Otherwise, how could the Mingjiao, which was so great in the past, have declined to this point directly because of Yang Dingtian's disappearance?
Later, after the six sects besieged Guangmingding, everyone united again, that was another matter.

At that time, everyone experienced life and death together, and their ideas were clear, but they didn't pay much attention to power, and Zhang Wuji became the leader of Mingjiao, leading the entire Mingjiao, which made everyone unite.

But it was not this time, and it would be bad if Zhou Ming's words got out at this time.

Of course Monk Peng didn't care about Yang Xiao's misunderstanding, the worst would be to leave Guangmingding, but now that the six sects are besieging, Mingjiao's situation is not good, Mingjiao's top management can't have any more conflicts.

Otherwise, Mingjiao is in danger!

"Your Excellency's lightness kung fu is amazing, and the monk admires it, but there is no need to say this. The monk has no desire to compete for the power of Mingjiao."

Zhou Mingdao: "I didn't say I want you to fight for that thing, but I feel that you have a better view of the overall situation than other high-level Mingjiao officials. At the very least, when other high-level leaders are thinking about fighting between Jiang and Hu, only you want to resolve grievances and share Anti-Yuan people."

Hearing this, Monk Peng's eyes lit up: "Does your Excellency think so too?"

"Of course. Not to mention that the siege of the Mingjiao by the six sects is a conspiracy. Even if it is not, the six sects should not fight with the Mingjiao at this time. At this moment, the country's righteousness should be put first. If those Tartars can be killed Drive them all out of the Central Plains, and it will not be too late to discuss these personal grievances."

Monk Peng said: "Exactly. It's a pity that there are very few people in the vast Jianghu who can think like you and me. Peng Yingyu, one of the five members of Mingjiao, dare to ask your name?"

After saying this, he suddenly came to his senses and asked in surprise, "What did you say? Is it a conspiracy for the six sects to besiege Mingjiao?"

Zhou Ming kept his mouth shut at this moment, clasped his fists and said, "I'm Li Feiyu, an unknown soldier in the Jianghu. Aren't scattered people going to the front line? Why don't you take me with you?"

Monk Peng immediately said: "Of course it is possible!"

The two went on the road together, talking while walking.

During this period, Zhou Ming informed Monk Peng of the inside story of the six sects besieging Mingjiao.

To put it simply, the Dayuan court played tricks behind the scenes, provoking and guiding the relationship between the two sides, allowing the snipe and the clam to fight, and finally the fisherman benefited.

The person who planned and carried out this plan was Chen Kun, the Hunyuan Thunderbolt, whose purpose was to avenge Yang Dingtian, the former leader of the Ming Cult, because Yang Dingtian married Chen Kun's childhood sweetheart, the younger junior sister, and it was regarded as a favor for him.

Monk Peng was angry and furious after hearing this, and said: "Hero Li, if I tell the six major sects about this, can I resolve the grudges between the six major sects and Mingjiao, and jointly fight against the Yuan court?"

Zhou Ming shook his head and said: "The reason why the six great sects can be used by the Great Yuan court is because the Great Yuan court is playing tricks on it, but on the other hand, it is also because the six major sects have enmity with Mingjiao.

You go and tell them, why should they believe?You are a member of the Five Scattered Ming Sect! "

Hearing this, Monk Peng sighed again: "Could it be that we can only sit back and watch the two sides fight and let the Mongolian Tartars benefit?"

Zhou Mingdao: "Don't worry, people from the Six Great Sects don't believe you, but people from the Ming Cult will. Besides, aren't there people from the imperial court? When they make a move, the Six Great Sects have to believe it if they want to. But by then, they will have to pay a little price."

Monk Peng immediately understood what Zhou Ming meant.

To put it simply, if the six major sects don't believe them, then simply abandon the six major sects, as long as the Mingjiao is protected.

When the Great Yuan court strikes at the heads of the six sects, even if the six sects don't want to resist Yuan, they have to do so.

Although during this period, there will definitely be a large number of disciples of the six sects who died.

But Monk Peng just had a better view of the overall situation than other Mingjiao people, and he was not a great kind person, so he just sighed and didn't have any opinions.

"Of course, we don't do nothing. Now, you need to do two things."

"If you need me, Monk Peng, to do whatever you want, Daxia Li will tell you, let alone two things, even if there are ten or hundreds of things, as long as the two forces can work together to fight against Yuan, I, Monk Peng, will do it!"

"First, when you get to the front line, you still have to tell the six sects about these things, whether they believe it or not.

Second, use Mingjiao's manpower to release a rumor, saying that the six sects have reached a consensus with the Yuan court to take refuge in the Dayuan court and assist the court in destroying the Mingjiao army.This rumor must spread before we rush to the front line! "

Another day passed in a blink of an eye, and the two rushed to the front line where Mingjiao and the six sects clashed.

The starting points of the six sects are different, so the routes to come are also completely different.

Mingjiao disciples need to be divided into several teams to deal with the six sects coming from different directions.

Among them, the least pressure is to deal with the Wudang faction, and the most stressful one is the Emei faction.

The Wudang Seven Heroes are all benevolent and righteous kings, and they are merciful in killing on the battlefield, often wounding the enemy without killing them.

On the other hand, on Emei's side, everyone is vicious and fierce, and blood is bound to be seen when they make a move.

In particular, Master Miejue, the head of Emei's sect, holds the Yitian sword and is so sharp that even a master of the same strength would not dare to confront it head-on, let alone an ordinary Mingjiao disciple.

Miejue Shitai's word "juejue" is definitely not for nothing, even if he fights with ordinary people in the same way, he often strikes fiercely and often hurts people.

This time, she met the Mingjiao, who had a deep hatred for her, and she would kill with a sword. After the Yitian sword was forged, the number of enemies killed in decades may not be comparable to that in just a few months.

Under her leadership, the disciples of Emei would be severely reprimanded by her whenever anyone was soft-hearted and wanted to let go.

So the whole Emei Sect seemed to be red-eyed.

The members of the Ming Cult who fought against Emei suffered the most casualties, and they even needed the disciples of the Sky Eagle Sect to come to support them. The two religions worked together to block Emei's killing wind.

After Monk Peng arrived at the front line, according to Yang Xiao's order, he ordered all Mingjiao followers to retreat.

But the order came to the group of congregants fighting against Emei, but it didn't work.

Monk Peng had no choice but to come in person.

But this time, another thing happened.

That means that the other four of the five scattered people and the Blue Winged Bat King have already arrived at Kunlun Mountain and want to join him.

It stands to reason that rendezvous will be reunited, but there is still a past event in it.

At the beginning, Wu Sanren had a conflict with Yang Xiao, and they fought violently. All five of them were injured by Yang Xiao, especially Taoist Tieguan, who even had his shoulder and skull broken by Yang Xiao, and almost lost an arm.

Now that Mingjiao is in trouble, although everyone decided to support Mingjiao, they also made an appointment to go to the Bright Summit together.

The five people are in different places. If they want to go up to the Bright Summit together, someone must wait in advance and waste time.

But Monk Peng knew that it was meaningless to do so because he had a big situation, so when he came to Guangmingding, he saw that no one else had arrived, so he went directly to help Yang Xiao.

If other people know about this matter, they will definitely blame him again. Even if they don't pursue it on the surface, there will be a gap in their hearts.

Knowing this, Zhou Ming said: "It's not easy, you go and meet them, I'll go for you and make them retreat."

Monk Peng hurriedly said: "How can you make Daxia Li so tired?"

"Haha, I said before that I came to help Mingjiao, but I didn't just talk about it, I should also do something."

After the two agreed, Monk Peng rushed to meet with the Wusan people, while Zhou Ming went to direct the Mingjiao disciples who were fighting against the Emei Sect.

Without Monk Peng being dragged down, Zhou Ming flew with all his strength, and arrived at the Mingjiao camp in less than an hour.

This camp is set up among the mountains and forests, guarding a road.

This road seems to be the only place to go to Kunlun Mountain. If you don't take this road, you may have to detour for a hundred miles.

The Emei Sect came here to destroy the Ming Cult. Seeing Ming Cult disciples blocking the way, it was too late to be excited, so how could they detour?
Two or three miles ahead of this camp, in a forest, is the camp of the Emei faction.

Zhou Ming floated down, which surprised the disciples in the Mingjiao camp, but they also reacted in a very short time, and took out their weapons to meet the enemy.

Many of them still had injuries on their bodies, but all of them showed firm faces, and they were not afraid of death at all.

Zhou Ming hurriedly said, "I'm here to convey Yang Xiao's order, not an enemy."

The crowd did not relax at all, but approached step by step, Zhou Ming frowned, and said: "I have the token of the Bright Left Envoy here, which can be used as proof!"

This token was given to Zhou Ming by Monk Peng, which can prove that he is not an enemy.

As for why it was Yang Xiao's token and not Peng Monk's... the five scattered people have left the Mingjiao for decades, and it is a question of how many people are willing to listen to their orders, let alone a mere token.

He took out the token, and the people around stopped for a while, and then a middle-aged man came out and said: "I am the order of the Tianzi sect, can you show me the token."

Zhou Ming handed the token to him, and after looking at it a few times, he said, "It is indeed Yang Zuoshi's token, what order do you have?"

"Yang Zuoshi ordered all the congregants to retreat and return to Kunlun Mountain to wait for follow-up orders!"

Hearing the words that day, the Commander of Zizi was furious and said, "You fart!"

Zhou Ming was taken aback.

"How could Zuo Envoy Yang issue such an order? From my point of view, you are a member of Monk Peng. After leaving the Ming Cult for decades, you come back at this time and want to seize power with Zuo Envoy Yang again?!"

An idea flashed in Zhou Ming's mind, and he suddenly figured out why these people resisted the order.

It turned out to be because of Monk Peng.

Wu Sanren and Yang Xiao have conflicts, this is a fact known to the entire Ming Cult, and Tianzimen is different from the general congregation, it is the direct subordinate of Guangming Zuoshi, naturally loyal to Yang Xiao, and hostile to Wu Sanren.

Although it was Yang Xiao's order this time, Monk Peng was the one who came to the front line to convey the order and carried out the order.

The congregants in other places directly carried out the order, but Tianzimen doubted the authenticity of the order, thinking that it was Monk Peng who passed on the order...

but!

Zhou Ming glanced at the entire camp.

There were not many people, only five or six hundred people, but among the five or six hundred people, more than 600 people were injured.

More importantly, the number of people dispatched to this route was the most. At the beginning, there were [-] people. Later, the Skyhawk Sect supported and sent [-] people.

A total of 300 people.

Now, there are only more than 500 left!
There are too many casualties!
Other Mingjiao disciples, the largest number in history, is more than 200 people.

And here, there are more than 700!
Seeing brothers die one by one with their own eyes, these people feel inexplicable grief and indignation.

They don't want to go!
They want to continue to kill, even if they know in their hearts that with their strength, even if they kill them, they will not be able to destroy the Emei faction at all.

But they don't care anymore at this moment, before they die, if they can take away one is one, if they can take two, they will make a lot of money!

Let them retreat now?

What about the brothers before that?
Dead in vain? !

This...is the real reason why they resisted the order and were unwilling to leave!
Zhou Ming let out a long breath, and couldn't help but feel a cloud of anger in his heart.

For the Emei faction.

What is the deep hatred between Mingjiao and Emei sect?

Yes, mainly Yang Xiao and Extinction.

Back then, Yang Xiao defeated Gu Hongzi, his senior brother who was extinct, and took away the Yitian sword, but he abandoned it like contempt, and angered Gu Hongzi to death.

Later, Yang Xiao fell in love with Juejue's disciple Ji Xiaofu. Juejue hated Mingjiao the most, and even more hated Yang Xiao. After learning the news, he killed Ji Xiaofu and blamed it on Yang Xiao.

It doesn't matter who is right or wrong in these two incidents, but Miejue Shitai's hatred for Yang Xiao has spread to the entire Mingjiao, causing such a killing.

It's a big mistake!

Zhou Ming took a deep breath and said, "This order was indeed issued by Zuo Yang, so there is no need to doubt it. Although Monk Peng is a member of the Five Scatterers, he doesn't have much power in Ming Cult, not to mention they have been away from Ming Cult for decades. Without the support of Yang Zuoshi, how would he dare to issue such an order?
Don't worry, this order is not to be afraid of them Emei Sect, nor to let them go, but for the strategic consideration of the entire Mingjiao.I don't think you will affect the strategy of the entire Ming Dynasty because of your hatred. "

The head of the Tianzi Sect was stunned when he heard the words, and the other Mingjiao disciples also showed hesitation.

At this moment, another figure came over directly and said: "Brother Chen, since it is the order of Yang Zuoshi, you should follow the order. But..."

He changed the topic, and said to Zhou Ming: "I don't need to worry about Yang Zuoshi about my Skyhawk Sect. This time, the Emei Sect killed hundreds of our Skyhawk Sect, and the Skyhawk Sect will definitely not let it go!"

Zhou Mingdao: "Since this is the case, you should obey orders even more. This retreat is to gather strength and better deal with the six sects. Only by gathering the strength of all of us can we defeat them and save the lives of the dead. Brothers take revenge. If you stay here, you are no match for the Emei faction at all, and you will only die in vain. It will have no effect except to add hundreds of sad people in this world!"

That day the Eagle Sect disciple said forcefully: "I can say whatever you want, but we will kill the Emei Sect and we will never retreat!"

Zhou Ming sighed and said, "It's troublesome to talk to you stupid people."

Immediately, the Ming Yu Gong was activated suddenly, and a bone-piercing cold burst out, sweeping in all directions.

"Retreat! This is the order of Yang Zuoshi. I don't want to talk to you about those reasons. Obediently obey the order!"

Under the cold air, everyone around was shivering from the cold, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes looking at Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming's kung fu was running non-stop, and the extremely cold air around him was constantly superimposed. Everyone was horrified to find that the internal energy that was still circulating in the body to resist the cold air in the last second became stagnant in the next second, as if it was because of the extreme cold. It's like being frozen.

Suddenly, as soon as Zhou Ming closed his exercises, the coldness disappeared.

Only then were the people saved, and they desperately circulated their internal energy to regain their body temperature.

"Now, who wants to resist orders?"
