Ming Dynasty: The ghost betrays the Confucian sage, my son Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 216 Zhu Yuanzhang’s troops approach the city: Dad, we are here

The next day, the winter sun shone warmly, and Yingchang City was enveloped in a warm light. A carriage drove slowly to the Qintian Prison, the door opened slightly, and the silver-haired Fourth Master Zhu gracefully jumped out of the carriage, and then reached out to carefully help Zhao Xuanzhen down. The two stood side by side in front of the solemn gate of Qintian Prison and stopped in unison.

There was unspeakable pain hidden deep in Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes. She took a deep breath to cover up the turmoil in her heart and said softly: "Let's go."

Fourth Master Zhu gently supported her through the many doors of Qintian Prison and came to a garden full of strange rocks. Looking up, I saw rugged rocks of different shapes, surrounded by mist, like a fairyland.

Zhao Xuanzhen suddenly stopped, biting her lower lip, and two lines of tears fell down her cheeks. She choked and said, "I'm sorry!"

Fourth Master Zhu gently let go of her hand, and a relieved smile appeared on his face: "The matter is now over, and we have settled things down. Just step aside, and I will handle the rest of the matter myself. ”

Zhao Xuanzhen looked at him in shock, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes: "You...you know everything?"

Fourth Master Zhu spread his hands, raised his head and laughed: "Don't you just want my luck? Hahaha, come and get it if you have the ability!"

He laughed and stepped into the strange stone formation. Zhao Xuanzhen looked at his back with tearful eyes, her heart full of guilt and helplessness: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I can only do this for Dayuan."

Several palace maids came over, comforted her softly, and helped her to rest in the corridor aside. But Fourth Master Zhu had already penetrated deep into the formation, and the mist filled the air, making it impossible to see his figure clearly.

As soon as he finished speaking, two figures flashed in the sky, it was Zha Ba Zhuang and Basi Ba. Basiba couldn't hide the excitement on his face, he had been waiting for this day for too long; while Zhabazhuang's expression was dull. He looked at Fourth Master Zhu coldly and asked lightly: "You know that there is a scam, why do you still do it?" Come to die?"

"Guess what?" Mr. Zhu said jokingly, raising his eyebrows.

"Hmph! Now that things have happened, do you still want to be tough?" The smile on Basiba's face became more and more ferocious. "No one can break this formation. Even if the so-called Jun comes, he can't save you!"

Fourth Master Zhu glanced at him contemptuously, with a sneer on his lips: "I'm here to kill you. How can I not avenge the needle you stuck in my brain more than 20 years ago?"

"Hahaha!" Basiba laughed proudly, "Master Zhu, you have fallen into our trap after all. As long as you absorb your luck today, Dayuan's luck will surely surpass that of Ming Dynasty. We Will once again take over the Central Plains and regain his glory!”

"Hmph!" Basiba sneered, "Today you are already a turtle in the urn, at our mercy. After we suck all your luck away, it won't be too late to question you slowly."

Basiba slowly waved his arms in the void, and the strange rocks in the garden suddenly lit up, with a bright yellow aura lingering among them. These breaths suddenly turned into rapidly rotating whirlwinds, dancing crazily around Fourth Master Zhu, like a group of hungry giant beasts opening their bloody mouths, eager to devour his luck.

……

Hearing this, Fourth Master Zhu raised a playful smile on his lips: "Oh? Are you so sure that you have a chance to win?"

But Fourth Master Zhu stood there with a smile but not a smile, with a calm look, as if he didn't care about the coming danger.

"I have lived for nearly two hundred years, and my understanding of Taoist magic is beyond your imagination. It is easy for me to predict the right one."

Fourth Master Zhu stood in the center of the strange stone formation, and the Book of Luck in his mind suddenly burst into dazzling light. He felt relieved. With the Book of Destiny here, why should he be afraid of this so-called formation?
He raised his head to the sky and shouted loudly: "I'm already here, why don't you come out?"

But Fourth Master Zhu was unmoved at all. He turned to look at Zhabazhuang and asked calmly: "I'm going to die. Can you tell me how you found me back then? Now that you have found me Why don't I just kill my son? Wouldn't that be more direct and less troublesome?"

A trace of doubt flashed across Zabazhuang's charming and handsome face. He frowned and asked coldly: "I have always had a doubt, how did you come back from the dead?"

However, Fourth Master Zhu seemed unusually calm. He sat cross-legged, with a calm expression on his face, not caring about what was happening around him. The Book of Luck in his mind also flickered at this time, as if he was full of longing for the luck outside.

Zha Ba Zhuang's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect Fourth Master Zhu to be so calm and composed in a life-and-death situation, which made him feel uneasy for no reason. However, he had absolute confidence in the formation, so he quickly calmed down. He looked at Master Zhu coldly and said:

"As for why you didn't just kill Zhu Chongba... Haha, you will understand when you reach my level. It's a pity, it's a pity, you will never have this opportunity!"

Fourth Master Zhu shrugged, as if he didn't care.

..."You have really tried your best to deal with me!" A sneer flashed across the corner of Mr. Zhu's lips, with endless ridicule in his tone. He sat cross-legged in the center of the strange stone formation and suddenly mobilized all his strength. In an instant, the bright yellow energy that originally surrounded him like a whirlwind was now like a gentle stream, pouring into his brain continuously and being absorbed by it. Absorb all the destiny books in your mind.

Zhabazhuang and Basiba, who were standing in the sky, were shocked when they witnessed this scene. They carefully arranged this formation to absorb the luck from Fourth Master Zhu, but unexpectedly, Fourth Master Zhu used it to absorb the luck that had finally gathered in the formation.

"This... how is this possible!" Basiba's face showed a look of incredible horror, as if he had seen some terrible monster.

"Quick! Stop him!" Zha Bazhuang roared urgently. He knew that if Fourth Master Zhu continued to absorb it, Daming's luck would far exceed that of Dayuan, and all efforts would be in vain.

However, just as they were about to take action, two figures flashed out and stood in front of Basiba. It was Wu'er and Zhu Chongjiu! The three of them instantly fell into a fierce battle. Weier, who had mastered magic skills, launched a fierce attack, not giving his opponent any chance to breathe.

Seeing this, Zabazhuang was very anxious. He raised his hand and slapped Master Zhu with a palm, trying to interrupt his absorption. However, at this moment, there was a sudden fluctuation of zhenqi behind him. A chill ran down his spine, and he turned around and slapped a palm.

boom!
There was a loud noise, and a sharp sword light shattered his palm print. Zhang Xuansu stood in the air, pointing the long sword in his hand at Zhaba Tower: "Old Imperial Master! Today I will let this poor Taoist come and learn your two hundred years of skill!"

Before he finished speaking, the two men clashed fiercely in the air like two shooting stars. The sword energy was vertical and horizontal, the shadows of the palms were flying, causing the void to fluctuate. The two men and horses in the sky were fighting inextricably, while Master Zhu was concentrating on absorbing the luck in the formation crazily.

When Basiba saw all this, his eyes almost burst out with fire. They have been planning a big plan for more than 20 years. Do they really want to make wedding clothes for others like this? He is not willing to give in! We must not let Fourth Master Zhu succeed!
……

Zhao Xuanzhen, who was standing outside the formation, witnessed the reversal of things. She was very anxious. She did not expect that Fourth Master Zhu could absorb the luck in the formation. In desperation, she quickly turned around and gave an order to the palace maid behind her: "Quick, go find your Majesty and ask him to lead troops to come for reinforcements immediately!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard rapid footsteps approaching from far away. Emperor Xinyuan led the Imperial Guards into the garden in a hurry. He raised his arms and ordered loudly: "Quick! Surround this garden and never allow them to escape!"

Following Emperor Yuan's order, two thousand archers moved quickly. They dispersed in an orderly manner and densely surrounded the garden. Every archer tightened their bow strings and pointed their arrows directly at Mr. Zhu in the formation. Just waiting for an order, thousands of arrows would be fired.

Emperor Yuan looked at the surrounded Fourth Master Zhu with a proud sneer on his face: "The Ming Dynasty's Supreme Emperor, now that you have no wings to fly, you'd better just surrender and be captured. For the sake of my aunt, I may spare your life."

Fourth Master Zhu didn't care at all. He still closed his eyes tightly and just snorted contemptuously: "Why don't you look at it for your mother's sake? You know, I am her man!"

When Emperor Yuan heard this, an indescribable anger and humiliation suddenly surged in his chest, and he almost vomited blood in anger. He was about to order an arrow to be fired to kill Fourth Master Zhu, but suddenly he felt the earth shaking violently.

boom! boom! boom!
Emperor Yuan looked around in horror, trying to figure out what was going on. At this time, a guard stumbled in and reported breathlessly: "Your Majesty, something serious has happened! The Ming Army... The Ming Army suddenly arrived and is now approaching the city!"

"What?" Emperor Yuan was shocked when he heard this, with an expression of disbelief on his face. His heart was full of doubts and fears: How could the Ming army suddenly appear under Yingchang City?

……

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang led 10,000 Ming Dynasty elite cavalry and arrived at Yingchang City in a mighty manner. Next to him, Ding Xiu, who had already left the city to greet him, was eagerly reporting to him: "Your Majesty, without further ado, let's attack the city as soon as possible. I am worried that King Yan and the Fourth Master will be in danger in the city."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked up at the majestic Yingchang City, feeling an indescribable excitement in his heart. He silently called in his heart: "Dad, here we come! Today we, father and son, are of the same mind, and we are as powerful as gold!"

He took a deep breath to calm down his excitement. After all, he was about to reunite with his father at such an important moment. He waved his hand resolutely and ordered: "Lanyu, pass the order and prepare to attack the city!"

"According to the order!" Lan Yu accepted the order in high spirits and left.

Following Lan Yu's order, the huge artillery was quickly pushed to the front of the formation. This time, Zhu Yuanzhang specially brought the newly formed Shenji Battalion, and rows of artillery were neatly aimed at the walls of Yingchang City.

"Fire!" Lan Yu shouted loudly.

In an instant, the cannonballs streaked across the sky like meteors, hitting the Yingchang Tower with blazing flames. Immediately afterwards, deafening explosions came one after another, and the whole earth trembled.
