Chapter 73 Subduing Demons and Eliminating Demons
Gaolaozhuang's military-civilian system has been cultivated locally for many years, and its foundation is very deep. There are more than a thousand men alone, and they are fully equipped with armor, bows, horses, and stone artillery tools. The superiors and subordinates are of the same mind. The whole thing is a strong bone. Outsiders think
It is not impossible to swallow it and knock the ground with a mouth full of teeth. Even the Uzbek Kingdom regards it as useless and does not want to exploit it too much. It even wants to use the Gao family to unify the countryside.
Gao Laozhuang was not just one of Gao Taigong's men. His family had been in bad luck for eight lifetimes, and he had a pig demon as his son-in-law. He couldn't do anything about it, and his status began to falter, which led to the rise of the other two "three elders" and divided his hands.
s right.
Because of this, the banker, who had been suffering from the Bitter Pig Demon for a long time, took the initiative to invite two wizards from the Uzbeg Kingdom to the village to subdue the demon, regardless of Grand Duke Gao's eyes, which just fulfilled the wishes of Master Cizhou and his disciples.
Gao Taigong saw that the public sentiment was raging, and people's hearts were turning towards the wizards of Wuszang Kingdom. He knew that public anger is hard to offend. Although he was a little embarrassed, he did not stop him. He watched Cizhou and his disciples walk into Gao Laozhuang.
It wasn't until everyone was gone that he couldn't help but sigh.
After Cizhou walked into the chain-link Wubao in Gaolaozhuang, he looked up and found that the walls were connected to each other, and ladders and wooden boards were set up in the alleys. Even fully armed adult villagers could fly on top of the walls. This made the Wubao
His defense system has become more three-dimensional and his maneuverability has become more outstanding. I secretly applauded.
"To be able to establish a foothold in the border area outside the fortress, I am indeed not an ordinary person. I only saw Gao Laozhuang for the first time, and I am quite organized, which is unusual. If the Western Tang Empire could move such a wealthy family to the border fortress and build many forts,
No matter how good your teeth are, the Uzbeg Kingdom can never swallow the Anxi Protectorate!"
Later, everyone gathered around Ci Zhou and his disciples, and entered the mansion of Grand Duke Gao in a grand manner. Several elderly women were preparing to light a fire to cook when they saw a large group of villagers coming in. They were noisy and a bit chaotic. They took a closer look.
They were all neighbors, relatives, and acquaintances. They came out of the kitchen and asked what happened.
Soon, some enthusiastic people came over and told these old women that the wizards from Uzbekistan came to the house on their own initiative to deal with the pig demon that entered Zhuangzi and came specifically to subjugate the demons.
The old women naturally didn't believe it. After all, it was not that Gao Taigong had not invited eminent monks and Taoists before. Unfortunately, their skills were just tricks of origami turning into birds and enchanting drinks. They were able to confuse some bankers. Once they were right,
After boarding the pig demon, the boat capsized instantly, but he was teased by the pig demon and ran away.
Over time, the old women came to know that this pig demon was not an ordinary person. It was rare that he was infatuated with Gao Cuilan, the third daughter of Grand Duke Gao's family. What would happen if he was brought to Zhuangzi by him and was still waiting to be married to the girl in his boudoir.
Master Cizhou and his apprentice, with the villagers clearing the way in front of them, entered Gao Taigong's house smoothly. However, the inner courtyard was full of female relatives, so it might be difficult to enter. Even though the atmosphere of the Western Tang Empire was unrestrained and unrestrained, after all, their reputation was at stake.
Be careful.
At the same time, Gao Taigong hurriedly hurriedly traveled all the way, and finally returned home. Relying on the prestige he had accumulated in the past, he separated from the crowd gathered by the farmers, walked to Cizhou's master and apprentice, and saw that they were obviously occupied.
The Wuzang wizard in charge, with his firm eyes, knew that this matter could not be left ambiguous.
So, he could only send someone to the inner courtyard to discuss it with his little girl. Surprisingly, Gao Cuilan agreed without hesitation, and then Master Cizhou and his apprentice entered the inner courtyard and came to the Gao family
The little girl’s boudoir is downstairs.
"Wukong" is good at watching the wind and catching winds. After reporting it to his mentor, he saw a gust of breeze blowing through the building, so he stretched out his hand to grab a handful, put it to his nose and smelled it gently, and said in surprise: "How strange!
The little daughter of the Gao family is actually still in the house, and the pig demon didn't try to show off, could it be that the two of them really love each other?"
After Cizhou heard this, he said nothing and looked at Taigong Gao, but saw him shaking his head gently: "No, no! My virtuous son-in-law loves others the most. If my daughter firmly says no, he can bear it."
I live on earth and have never dared to use force."
"That's it! I didn't expect that Gao Taigong's virtuous son-in-law is also a man of temperament. He has not completely turned into a monster. There may be a chance to save him."
After all, Gao Taigong was quite deep in the city. After listening to the words of Wu Zang wizard, he just smiled and nodded, and did not give an immediate reply. He seemed to be unfavorable to Ci Zhou and his disciples, as if he believed that they would be driven away by the pig demon (son-in-law).
Run, just like before.
After "Wukong" used his ability to watch for wind and wind, he calculated with his fingers and said with a surprised smile: "Teacher, tonight on the fifteenth day of the full moon, the pig demon's magic power will rise to its peak. However, after the moon is above the sky, there are tengu coming and going.
, a bite of Yan Yue will definitely mess up the pig demon’s vitality. By then...hehe!"
This was the first time that Ci Zhou saw such an interesting expression on his disciple's face. That mean smile was completely different from the resentful and bitter look on his face when he first saw it. It was as if his whole person came to life.
"So... very good, very good! The weather, the right place, and the right people are all on our side, so we can catch the monster tonight! I'm not afraid of him coming, but I'm afraid he won't come!"
The master and the disciple looked at each other and laughed in perfect understanding. The laughter was so contagious that even Gao Taigong, who originally looked down upon the two of them and was waiting to see the joke, couldn't help but laugh.
Later, "Wukong" asked for some old wood and horse hair, carving and pondering on his own, and made many masks for the sect's wizard ceremony.
After Cizhou took a look at them, he found that they were very similar to the Nuo gods of the Central Plains. In ancient times, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors ruled the world, drove away plagues and malaria, guarded the ancient emperor, cleared the way, swept the house, each had their own duties, and enjoyed the incense of sacrifice. "National Gods"
"The predecessor of.
"That's right! Our religion is the national religion of Wu Zang, and the ritual masks are like Nuo gods. They must have their roots. Could they be the desolate gods worshiped by this religion? Or even the ancestors of the previous generations of this religion?"
Cizhou's thoughts went further, and he thought of the demon gods, demon gods and other evil gods in the ancient demon country. In addition to losing their faith in incense and having to fall into a deep sleep, I am afraid it was also because the sect tried every means to suppress them.
"Perhaps, there have been a series of divine wars before. The wizards of our religion wore masks and invited gods to take over. They defeated the ancient demon kingdom and even destroyed it. The gods also exhausted their divine power and had to sleep to escape. If
If it weren't for their profound foundation, the gods of the Ancient Demon Kingdom would not have persisted until now, and could still respond to the descendant believers of the Ancient Demon Kingdom intermittently, and even forcefully wake up and perform a wave of divine trances."
Since Cizhou was aware of it, he did not wander around Gao Taigong's house. Around the beautiful building where Gao Cuilan lived, the only way in and out was to lay rocks with rock talismans.
Taking into account that the pig demon can stir up the wind, float and move in the air, Cizhou obtained permission and used tiles to hold down the rune stones tied with strings on the eaves and brackets of the second floor.
Master Cizhou and his apprentice were ready, waiting for dawn to dusk, and slowly ate the food sent by the Gao family. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, they ordered the Gao family not to move around at will.
At about three o'clock in the morning (18:30), in the barren mountains seventeen or eight miles away from Gaolaozhuang, there were no weeds and no birds or animals. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, and a gray and black wind rolled out from the cave, carrying the package.
The monster with a pig's head and a human body was thrown towards Gao Laozhuang.
At the sharp hour of Youshi (19:00), the pig demon rode the wind to the edge of the field. He looked at the dimly lit Gao Laozhuang and suddenly found that the Gao family of Taishan was completely dark.
There was a little light and a faint hint of joy, probably the red candle used on the wedding day, which slightly wiped away the unhappiness in Zhu Gangxi's heart.
At the same time, Gao Cuilan hid under the bed, biting her handkerchief and holding back from making a sound. She was secretly worried and didn't know what to do. After all, they were a husband and wife, and if they said they were not afraid, they would definitely be lying.
She has known Zhu Ganghui for many years. In order to protect Zhuangzi and resist the wizards from Uzang, he was willing to swallow the secret medicine of the ancient demon kingdom and directly turned into a demon god with magical powers. He sent many eminent monks and Taoist practitioners away.
, I didn’t expect that this move would attract genuine goods.
"Wukong" put on a white fox mask early, pinched his lips and let out a spiritual cry, rolled on the spot, and transformed into the appearance of a girl from the Gao family. He put on a joyful wedding dress to cover his aura and prepared to arrest him.
Pig Demon Plan.
