The counterattack of the villains

Although Mrs. Qiao couldn't understand the level of martial arts, but just now there were only two female bandits, and they entangled the left and the right. If five people came together at this time, the three of them might not be able to stop them.

If they separate out three people to entangle Xiang Zuo Zhi Zhu and Zhi Zhu, and the other two start killing them, no one can stop them at all.

When the five people stopped the three people from the left, Bai Lianhua had already walked out of the gate, and Qiao Linger was also carried away by the female bandits.

Glaring at the five girls to the right, he said, "Don't think we can't really defeat you, we came to celebrate our birthday today, and we didn't bring any weapons, otherwise even if all five of you went together, it would be for nothing."

Said to the right: "If you dare to hurt Ling'er, I will teach you to be restless in the future."

Xiang Zuo said: "If we use a sneak attack, go to the cottage to kill a few tonight, and go to the cottage to kill a few tomorrow night, how many of you can let us kill?"

Bai Suzhen smiled and said: "Masters, don't worry, we never intend to hurt Mr. Qiao."

Mrs. Qiao couldn't help asking: "You don't want money or food, what exactly do you want to do with Linger?"

Bai Suzhen glanced back and saw that all the female bandits had already left the Qiao residence, so she smiled softly, "What we want is Mr. Qiao."

Mrs. Qiao frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

Xiaoqing couldn't help but said: "Oh, you old man is so stupid, let me tell you clearly! My king has taken a fancy to Mr. Qiao, and wants to snatch him back and become an official in the village."

Xiaoyu covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Don't worry, when the matter is settled, the dowry will come to you."

"puff"

Hearing what Xiaoyu said was interesting, the girls couldn't help laughing.

"Ah?" Mrs. Qiao was dumbfounded, and everyone in the Qiao Mansion behind him also looked at each other in blank dismay.

It's just that the female bandit leader has taken a fancy to her young master because of the commotion caused by co-authoring?

Bai Suzhen said to Mrs. Qiao: "Old man, for the sake of your safety, please keep your mouth shut so that the government will not trouble you because of this matter. Let me leave."

After finishing speaking, the five girls all turned around and left.

Mrs. Qiao looked from left to right, and said, "Masters, this..."

Raising his hand to the right, he said: "Don't worry, old layman, tonight we will touch Fengtou Mountain to see the situation. If what they said is true, Ling'er will not be in danger, otherwise we will definitely try to rescue him."

Mrs. Qiao frowned and said: "If there is a chance, you should rescue Ling'er directly!"

"He has studied hard for ten years and is full of knowledge. He will take the Juren examination next year. It can be said that he has a bright future. If he really becomes a village official in Fengtou Mountain, his future will be ruined."

Scratching his cheek to the left, he said in embarrassment: "Old layman, pardon the poor monk, even if we can rescue Ling'er, if the white lotus brings more people next time, won't we still be unable to keep it?"

Sighing to the right: "Yes, if Bai Lianhua is angered, causing her to plunder Qiao's manor, wouldn't we become sinners?"

"With Ling'er's personality, I'm afraid she won't be willing to let things go to this point!"

After listening to the two people's words, Mrs. Qiao naturally knew that what they said was reasonable, and couldn't help but lamented with a tangled face: "What is this all about?"

Zhizhu said to the crowd behind Mrs. Qiao: "Everyone, you have heard what that girl said. You will definitely rot in your stomachs about this matter."

"Let's say to the outside world that the young master was captured by the Fengtou Mountain bandits. We have to report to the officials tomorrow. Otherwise, if this matter is leaked, you will all be in disaster."

Everyone witnessed the whole process, so they naturally knew the stakes.

The young master has become the man of the King of the Mountain. The government can completely say that the Qiao family has colluded with bandits, and none of them can escape by then.

Therefore, everyone said that they would never tell the matter.

……

"Hmph, this damned Qiao Linger dared to embarrass me like this, and even said that I was cruel, I...I'm going to kill him."

At night, in the Juyi Hall of Fengtou Mountain Village, Bai Lianhua was furious, her chest heaved uncontrollably, and she shouted and panted.

Ding Xiang, who was standing aside, immediately said, "How can the king do such a trivial thing? I'm going to kill him right away."

As soon as Ding Xiang turned around, Bai Lianhua stomped her feet angrily and said, "Hey, stop."

She rolled her eyes at Ding Xiang fiercely, her breath calmed down slightly, "If you really want to kill him, why wait until you return to the cottage?"

"No matter how you say he helped me, wouldn't it be heartless and unjust to kill him?"

Ding Xiang held back her smile, spread her hands together and said, "I can't even kill you, and you'll be angry if I don't kill you, so what should I do?"

Bai Lianhua said angrily: "This Qiao Ling'er dares to compete with me, how could I still lose to him?"

"Listen to me, all of you. From today on, you are not allowed to give him food until he gives in to me."

All the bandit leaders clasped their fists together and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Bai Suzhen frowned slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, with Qiao Linger's stubborn temper, maybe he would rather starve to death than give in to you."

"If it really gets to that point, I'm afraid I won't be able to step down at that time. I can't really watch him starve to death, can I?"

Bai Lianhua was stunned. With Qiao Linger's temperament, she might really be like this. She said rather depressed: "Then sister thinks how should I punish him?"

Bai Suzhen asked back: "Why do you have to punish? Your Majesty wants him to be his own man, not to subdue him as his subordinate. Why don't you have a peaceful talk with him?"

Bai Lianhua suddenly turned her back, waved her hand and said: "That's no good, I, Fengtou Mountain, is the male lead inside and the female lead outside, if he can't be subdued, he will have to find trouble for me in the future."

Xiaoqing rolled her eyes and said with a chuckle: "In my opinion, it's better for you, the overlord, to fight hard and cook raw rice with him first."

"Remember to be strong when the time comes, and tell him after you're done that you will be responsible to him, and then tell him about my Fengtoushan rules."

"If he dares to pierce, then you will follow the Overlord and forcefully attack the bow. I still don't believe it. You are also a martial arts master after all, and you can't deal with a weak scholar."

When Xiaoqing said this method, those female bandit leaders were already blushing with embarrassment.

Even Bai Lianhua felt hot on her face, and she didn't even know how to respond to Xiaoqing's words.

Although they are bandits, although Bai Lianhua is a decisive king of the mountain, but they are also untouched yellow flower girls, how can they stand up to Xiaoqing, the old Siji's words of tigers and wolves.

Bai Suzhen blamed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Xiaoqing, don't mess around, what if the king really does this, Qiao Ling'er can't bear the humiliation and commits suicide?"

"Listen to me. Talk to him frankly. A scholar like Qiao Ling'er cannot be lewd when he is rich, can't be subdued when he's mighty, and he's kind-hearted by nature.

Bai Lianhua paced back and forth, pondered for a moment, and said to a leader: "You send him some food first, I'll talk to him later."

"Yes."

Not long after, the leader returned with an ugly expression, and Bai Lianhua hurriedly asked what happened.

The boss said indignantly: "My lord, that Qiao Ling'er really doesn't know what's good and what's wrong. When my subordinates went to bring him food, he actually said that even if he starved to death, he wouldn't eat the looted food."

Bai Suzhen and the girls looked at each other with helplessness on their faces.

Well, after finally calming Bai Lianhua down, she is going to be furious again.

Sure enough, after hearing what the boss said, Bai Lianhua slapped the tea table apart angrily, and said angrily, "What do you mean by looting?"

All the leaders were silent, Bai Suzhen and the girls had nothing to say, Bai Lianhua looked at the door resentfully and said: "Qiao Linger, let me see how long you can last."

But she didn't notice that Bai Suzhen and the girls glanced at the roof calmly.

On the roof of the Juyi Hall, Xiang Zuo Xiang and Zhi Zhu looked at each other, then flew into the night sky without anyone noticing, and returned to Qiao's Village.

When they returned to Qiao's residence, Mrs. Qiao, the housekeeper and Lao Xu were still waiting for the news. When they saw a few people coming back, they hurriedly greeted them.

At this time, the three of them were holding weapons in their hands, each holding a big sword to the left and right, and Zhizhu was holding a cooked copper stick.

"Master, how is the situation?"

Xiang You said solemnly: "The situation is not good. Bai Lianhua sent many bandits to guard Ling'er, and we couldn't find a chance to rescue him."

Mrs. Qiao quickly asked, "What is Bai Lianhua's attitude towards Ling'er?"

"Alas..." Sighed to the left, Mrs. Qiao and the others felt their hearts skip a beat. They only heard him say: "Ling'er is too stubborn, and Bai Lianhua is very angry."

"Bai Lianhua has already planned to fight against the overlord Ling'er. First cook the raw rice and then slowly subdue Ling'er."

"Ah?" Mrs. Qiao was stunned, and the housekeeper and Lao Xu also looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

Xiang You said helplessly: "Fortunately, Ling'er's life is safe, but I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my innocence."

"..."

Mrs. Qiao's face was full of confusion, and the housekeeper and Old Xu even wanted to laugh.

Master, do you have any misunderstanding about the word innocence?
Ling'er is a man, this kind of thing is not Linger's disadvantage, no matter what!
No, if Ling'er really cooked rice with Bai Lian and peanuts and became the man of the King of the Mountain, he would also become a real bandit. Wouldn't it be impossible to keep his innocence?
Mrs. Qiao's mind turned a corner before she figured out the true meaning of Xiang You's words. It turned out that she had misunderstood the word innocence.

Losing your innocence is more than just losing your virginity.

Zhizhu comforted Mrs. Qiao: "You don't need to worry about the old layman. I think Linger also has plans to slowly influence Bai Lianhua and make her a good person."

"If he succeeds, it will be a great merit. Let Bai Lianhua go down the mountain and change her name and surname. You will get a granddaughter-in-law with excellent martial arts for nothing, but it is not a bad thing."

Mrs. Qiao was stunned for a moment, and according to what Zhizhu said, it seemed that it was really not a bad thing.

But the premise of all this is that Ling'er can succeed!

Now I can only ask the Buddha to bless me.

……

Five miles to the west of Qiaojiazhuang, there is a small temple that does not occupy a large area and looks very new.

The three people from left to right walked into the temple side by side, suddenly they were all startled, and then they were very pleasantly surprised, and hurried forward to meet them.

But he saw two people sitting at the stone table on the side of the open space in front of the main hall in the temple, and they were drinking wine in this temple in a grand manner.

"Ming Wang, Chen Xiang, you are here! Is everything going well?"

Chen Xiang got up and cupped his fists and said: "Two guardians, brother Zhi Zhu, everything is going well, and the relic has been obtained."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Li Mu waved to the three of them and said, "Sit down, how is the situation here?"

The three of them took their seats, and Li Mu brought them each a bottle of fine nectar and jade liquid.

The three thanked Li Mu, and after each took a big drink, they spoke from left to right, reporting the current situation to Li Mu.

After listening to the reports of the two, Li Mu basically already knew it in his heart, and said to the three of them appreciatively: "You guys have done a good job, just keep going."

After speaking, he said to Chen Xiang: "Soon, Mrs. Qiao's family will have a life-and-death catastrophe. When the time comes, you and the guardians around will protect Qiao's family together."

"After the disaster, you have to persuade Mrs. Qiao's family to leave Qiao's Village. If Mrs. Qiao doesn't want to, you might as well reveal some news."

"If he agrees, you can take them to Haoranzong to settle down and wait and see what happens. When you need to take action, the teacher will notify you."

Chen Xiang had no objection, said: "Disciple obeys, what about you, Master?"

Li Mudao: "I'm going to meet someone, and at the same time secretly protect the reincarnated soul boy of the Buddha."

Xiang Zuo's heart moved, although he had already guessed it, he still asked Li Mu for confirmation: "Ming Wang, the reincarnated soul boy of the Buddha is Qiao Ling'er, right?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "That's right. I knew you could guess his identity. You can't hide his identity. Sooner or later, the demon soldiers will come to him. With Xiaoyu and the others, I'm afraid it will be difficult to protect the soul boy well."

Chen Xiang pondered for a while, and said: "How about this, master, after sending Mrs. Qiao's family to the Haoran School, let the left and right guardians stay in the Haoran School for protection, and the disciples should come and help you!"

Li Mu thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's fine, I'm afraid that when the magic soldiers return without success, Wutian will take action himself."

"As a teacher alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist. We, master and apprentice, may be able to deal with him a little bit."

……

Early the next morning, the butler was sent out by Mrs. Qiao to go to the government office to inquire about the situation.

When Qiao Ling'er was taken away yesterday, Mrs. Qiao had already sent someone to the government office to report the case.

When the sun was high, the housekeeper returned with a relaxed face, and reported to Mrs. Qiao: "Master, the county master said that the white lotus is extremely difficult to deal with, and even the government can't do anything about her."

"The officers and soldiers chased and suppressed him several times, but they lost nothing. If it wasn't for this, how could he remain indifferent when Bai Lianhua killed his teacher Hu Wanqing?"

"That's why the county magistrate told me that he sympathized with what happened to us, but he was powerless to let us accept our fate."

Mrs. Qiao laughed and said, "Since Emperor Taizu released his military power by drinking wine, he began to emphasize civility over military affairs, and ordered civil officials to lead the army, making the officers and soldiers more and more incompetent. It is no wonder that bandits are rampant."

"Forget it. Anyway, we have already reported to the government. The government cannot solve the problem. If Ling'er returns that day, no one will be able to find fault with my Qiao family."

The butler agreed: "What the old man said is that if your government doesn't help us save people, my young master will naturally have to save himself."

"To save your life, surrendering to the bandits is a helpless move. What face does he have to say that my Qiao family is colluding with bandits?"

Mrs. Qiao stroked his beard and nodded.

After this incident, everything calmed down, the Qiao family lived as they should, and several people from left to right still opened free clinics.

Afterwards, Chen Xiang went to visit Qiao's mansion as a disciple of the secular family who was accepted by the left and the right. Naturally, he came to see the master in the name, and the old man Qiao warmly entertained him.

As for where he was before, it's easy to explain, let's just say that he was successful in his studies and went out to travel the world for experience.

At this point, Chen Xiang can openly enter and leave Qiao's house and protect Qiao's house at close range.

In the original plot, after Qiao Ling'er left Qiao's mansion, the black robe quickly brought the magic soldiers to destroy the whole family of Qiao's family. Li Mu also planned for a rainy day.

With Chen Xiang here this time, the only way for the black robe to dare to come is death.

But when Chen Xiang entered Qiao's residence, Li Mu flew into the clouds above Fengtou Mountain.

His eyes were golden, and he looked directly through all the caves of the houses, looking at a certain existence, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

A divine thought was sent out, and a golden light flashed past immediately below.

The next moment, there was a golden light shining in front of Li Mu. When the golden light dissipated, there was a humanoid creature with a pair of golden wings and bird features on his head in front of him.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Master Ming, long time no see."

The golden-winged roc was also very happy to see Li Mu: "Dawei Tianlong Mingwang, it's great that you were not suppressed by Wutian. This way, our chances of winning will greatly increase!"

The golden-winged roc is King Garuda, and he has always had a good relationship with King Mahulaka.

The eight dragons are not monolithic, and they also have friendly and hostile relationships with each other.

Just as the gods and the asuras are hostile to each other, the nagas and the garudas are hostile to each other, and the yakshas and gandharvas are also hostile to each other.

Therefore, the asuras, garudas, yakshas, ​​and mahurakas form a circle, and the celestials, nagas, and gandharvas form a camp.

Kinnara is Wutian, and now he has naturally been removed from the eight dragons.

The Kinnaruo people under him are now the core force group under his command, and the six spirit generals are all members of the Kinnaruo people.

Because the Garuda people feed on dragons, they are natural enemies with the Naga Dragon King, and the Golden Winged Roc has always been at odds with the Naga Dragon King.

But the Naga Dragon King looked down on the Mahurakas, thinking that they were dragons and the Mahurakas were snakes, so they were nobler than the Mahurakas.

King Mahuraka would never spoil them, so how could this relationship be good?
As for the grievances between the gods and the asuras, it originated from the fact that Emperor Shitian forcibly snatched Princess Ashura, who was King Ashura's own sister, as the concubine Ming.

At the beginning, because of this incident, the Asuras went directly to Mount Sumeru and fought with Di Shitian. In the end, it was the Tathagata who came forward to mediate and the matter was settled.

But the Tathagata can quell the incident, but it cannot quell the hatred between the two races.

Therefore, the Eight Heavenly Dragons are actually divided into two camps.

In fact, Li Mu didn't like the golden-winged roc because of the lion and camel country back then.

After Tathagata established the Eight Heavenly Dragons, Garuda and Naga became their own people, and the golden-winged roc could no longer eat Naga, but instead ate humans.

Whenever Li Mu changed his identity, the golden-winged roc would definitely be the one he wanted to beat to death.

But now that he and the Golden Winged Roc are in the same camp, and they had a friendly relationship in the previous life, he naturally couldn't attack the Golden Winged Roc, because the two Western Saints would not just sit idly by.

But in the future, after he proves the Hunyuan Dao and is on an equal footing with the two western saints, the situation will be very different.

If this guy doesn't change his nature, he doesn't mind sending him into reincarnation himself.
