After I worshipped Bodhi, I was invincible

Chapter 23 Waiting for the Fish to Hook
After reading the records and situation related to the fish demon, Ao Qing said: "Sun Tzu has a saying in the art of war that there are five aspects to consider in war: one is the way, the other is the sky, the third is the earth, the fourth is the general, and the fifth is the law."

"Siege and beheading, the most important factor to consider at present is the third point - land."

Ao Qing condensed her spiritual power with her fingertips, and imagined the location of the fish demon's lair in midair.

"From the point of view of the terrain, the fish demon's lair is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is surrounded by boulders and ancient formations. To enter it, you must smash the boulders with formations, but it is easy to be discovered by breaking the formation with force. There are also evil spirits around. Guard, breaking the formation is too passive to consider."

"Since it is not feasible to attack from the outside, there are two ways to go right now, mix into it and disintegrate the inside, or let it go out and kill outside."

Ao Jue pondered for a moment, then said: "The fish demon rarely leaves the customs, but often sends sand demons to fight in the waters near the Crystal Palace."

"I have fought against the Sand Demon a hundred times. The Fish Demon's intention is in the boundary. The intention of several times is also obvious. If you hand over the territory of the Crystal Palace, you will not be entangled. Otherwise, even if you invite the troops from Xihai, the Fish Demon will come back in the future once it escapes. , as time goes on, it will be very difficult to cut the grass and roots.”

After hearing this, Ao Qing nodded: "So we must kill, and we must kill quickly."

"Since the fish demon intends to kill, if it makes a big move, maybe it will scare the snake and make it escape to other places."

Tapping the table lightly with her fingers, Ao Qing thought of the amulet on her body, and came up with a plan.

"I have an idea, but all I have to do now is wait."

"Wait?" Ao Jue was puzzled.

"Yes, when the sand demon attacks the Crystal Palace again, you will fight as usual, and I will hide my breath in the dark."

"You don't have to worry about me, just continue to fight him with all your strength, so that the Sand Demon doesn't dare to underestimate the enemy. This way, the enemy is in the clear and I am in the dark. When the Sand Demon shows his flaws, I will kill him by surprise."

"Isn't he good at running away? But don't forget, Dongting is our boundary."

"His body and spiritual power have been consumed a lot after this, and he is seriously injured. Even if the sand demon is about to flee, I will use the lake water as the boundary and form a formation to trap him."

There was a smile in Ao Qing's eyes: "Kill him, I will transform into the appearance and breath of a sand demon, and then go back to the entrance of the cave to lure the fish demon out."

"You mean, you want to turn into a sand demon and lead him out?"

Ao Jue shook his head: "The art of illusion is always to change the skin, and the aura around you is hard to hide. Isn't the fish demon an ordinary person, he may notice that your aura is different."

"I have my own method. If the second brother believes in me, he will cooperate with me to get his head!"

After a moment of contemplation, Ao Jue nodded.

This is indeed the safest method at present, and it requires the least amount of troops. Even if it fails, killing the sand demon is basically not difficult, and it is not a loss.

"You should read the picture scroll recording the fish demon first, and if you have any doubts, just ask me."

"clear."

Ao Qing nodded: "But there is one more thing. I asked my second brother and father to keep it a secret for the time being that I got the Taixu order. The money should not be exposed. The more people know something, the more disadvantageous it will be."

"We naturally understand these things." Ao Jue showed a slight smile on her delicate face: "Don't worry, little sister, father and I have our own discretion."

After finishing speaking, Ao Jue turned and left Zangshu Pavilion.

Watching his back gradually go away and disappear, Ao Qing rubbed his eyebrows and continued to study the formation.

Now the fishing rod and bait are all ready, just wait for the big fish to take the bait.

……

Three days later, in the cathode cave.

The huge fish demon leaned on the stone chair, holding the wine jar on the table with his fleshy hands, and drank it with his head raised.

The wine flowed down the fish demon's jaw, his cheeks were flushed, and he was faintly drunk.

"Rou'er, why don't you come and pour me wine!"

The demon girl dancing gracefully under the stage closed her sleeved dress, swayed her slender waist, and walked towards the fish demon with small steps. Her white fingers rested on the fish demon's shoulders, her fingers gathered spirits, and the wine flowed from the tank into the cup among.

"Your Majesty, I am so happy to stay in this cathode cave."

The scallion-white jade fingers stuck to the scaly fingers of the fish monster, she frowned and acted coquettishly: "When will the king be able to capture the Crystal Palace? So you and I can leave this residence?"

"No hurry, no hurry, this matter has to be done step by step, and the patience of Dongting Dragon Lord will be polished a little bit."

"But Your Majesty, it's really uncomfortable to live here. How about your Majesty find some maids to come here instead of my concubine? When I was in Haohe, I had to be served by little demons. When I come here, I have to do my own dressing up."

Xiao Rou stuck to the fish demon, complaining coquettishly.

The fish demon's thick fingers slid across Xiao Rou's back, and said with a smile, "I'm the king according to you."

"Second brother, come here!"

The fish demon waved to the man in black who was thinking outside the door, and the man in black turned around and entered the house upon hearing this.

The man in black was wearing a bamboo hat, and the black cloak on his body was patterned with golden runes. He was thin and thin, with a string of purple wood beads hanging on his chest.

"Brother, do you have any orders?" The man in black looked up.

"Second brother, it's been five days since the last time. I'll go to the Crystal Palace today. It would be better if I can negotiate with them. I won't believe it if I can't negotiate with them. I will beat you every now and then, and I will stick to it." Hold on to that piece of land."

The fish demon stroked his beard, and added: "A few more maidservants, mermen, do you understand? Just click until it's done, and I'll reward you a lot when things are done!"

The man in black cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely do my best."

As soon as the words fell, the black-robed man turned around and turned into black mist and dissipated in the cathode hole.

In a blink of an eye, the man in black landed in front of the Crystal Palace, and a long dark purple whip appeared in his hand. The dark gold was plated in the whip, and Yin Qi lingered.

The expression of the catfish demon guarding the gate in front of the Crystal Palace changed drastically, and he immediately sounded the alarm.

The bell rang loudly, and not long after, the streamer fell in front of the eyes of the man in black, and it was Ao Jue who came.

Looking at the black-robed man who was haunted by a demonic aura in front of him, Ao Jue said coldly: "It's still the same sentence, my Dongting is not easy to mess with, and it is absolutely impossible for us to compromise."

"Why offend us for a piece of land?" The man in black clasped his hands together.

"Amitabha, my elder brother possesses extraordinary powers, and his future is boundless. Why do you stick around here for the so-called face?"

Ao Jue's face remained unchanged, the long sword in his hand was out.

"Stop talking nonsense, you can beat me before you talk about it, you want us to leave unless you step over my dead body!"

The man in black shook his head: "It's really narrow-minded, and the heart of a villain is sad and lamentable."

While speaking, the black shadow swayed and landed on the rock.

Ao Jue frowned, raised his sword and chased after him.

Two streamers of light, one black and one white, streaked across the waters, stirring up a turbulent wave.

Just as the two were fighting, Ao Qing cast the Great Dao Concealing Breath Talisman to suppress the aura of his cultivation, and quietly hid behind the reef.

Looking forward with both eyes, the illustrated book of mountains and seas can be displayed at will.

Ao Qing quickly figured out the identity of the man in black robe. He was the sand demon under the command of the fish demon.

The sand demon itself has no entity, and has the loose body bell as an auxiliary.

No wonder several times of encirclement and suppression ended in failure, and now dare to come here alone to fight, it is obviously a clink of trump cards.

The Scattering Body Bell has the effect of turning reality into emptiness, and it is a good treasure for escaping. With the Sand Demon and the Scattering Body Bell, even if dozens of monks come, they can still take the opportunity to escape.

The long whip in the air fought the flying sword back and forth, and Ao Qing thought about the countermeasures in his mind.

After all, the opponent is a low-level celestial being. Although the sneak attack has a high probability of winning, Ao Qing feels a bit reluctant to rely on a single sneak attack to kill him.
