() Toutuo Ridge is located to the west of the main peak of Zhongshan Mountain. It is the second highest peak of Zhongshan Mountain, with a height of 184 and one-half feet. It has a dangerous terrain, steep rock walls, and excellent scenery. Climb high and look far away, and you can see the buildings.

The prosperity of Kang can be seen at a glance, but if a sentry post is set up here, there will no longer be any secrets in the troop mobilization of Jiankang and even the palace city.

In the early morning of August 13th, on the cliff of Toutuo Ridge, two figures stood ten feet apart from each other. At first glance, they looked about the same age, both middle-aged men in their forties or fifties, but in fact, they were nearly a hundred years old.

difference.

Wu Puzhen was holding the Fang Tian Hua Ji, and Liu Kun was holding the eight-foot-long spear. Under the cliff where they were standing were Ge Hong, Murong Xin, Bian Yi, Wang Dao, Yu Liang, Huan Yi, Nandun Wang Zong and others.

important person.

In fact, everyone understands that Zhengyiyi is inseparable from Yunfeng. If Liu Kun can be used to severely damage Zhengyiyi, it will be a heavy blow to Yunfeng, and Liu Kun can also be better.

Expand your power and obtain sufficient capital to compete with Yunfeng.

Relatively speaking, Liu Kun's identity as a master was exposed, and it did not cause too much trouble in the government and the opposition. This can't be helped. Most people are far less aware of the dangers of Tianshi Dao than Yunfeng. After careful consideration,

In the eyes of ordinary people, the small group of people who devoutly worship the Three Officials and Emperors believe that Tianshi Tao is just a loose organization that is good at collecting people's wealth and fooling the people. They do not understand the horror of the integration of politics and religion...

Among these important ministers, Yu Liang's mood was the most complicated. Emotionally speaking, he was an outer disciple of the Zhengyi sect, and Master Wu Pu was his ancestor. He hoped that Master Wu Pu would win, but intellectually, he knew that Master Wu Pu was definitely not

Liu Kun's opponent was likely to be killed on the spot.

Once Master Wu Pu unexpectedly kills Liu Kun, or he and Liu Kun die together. In short, as long as Liu Kun dies in this battle, then the unification of the north of Yunfeng and the south will become an irreversible historical trend, and Jiangdong

gentry

Their last line of efforts will be in vain, and they can only be forced to put on a smile and welcome the arrival of the Qin army one day later. From this perspective, it is in the best interests of the nobles that Liu Kun kills Wu Puzhen!

Yu Liang stared blankly at the two people on the cliff. The split personality and the double torture of body and mind made him somewhat absent-minded.

Others have more or less contacts with Master Wu Pu. Seeing that a centenarian who is determined to be an immortal will become a victim of the dispute between Yunfeng and Liu Kun, they will inevitably sigh in their hearts, God is playing tricks on people.

!

Of course, the only one who firmly supported Liu Kun without emotion was none other than the Nandun Wangzong. When he looked at Master Wu Pu, his eyes were filled with a look of death. In his imagination, there was no such thing as this battle.

It is necessary to start a fight. Master Wu Pu surrendered and committed suicide. This is a sensible move. We are already invincible, so why not hurry up?

"Dang, dang, dang~~!" As the first ray of sunlight on the horizon hit the top of the mountain, a bell rang in front of the main hall dedicated to Yuanshi Tianzun!

The sound of the bell made the people gathered at the foot of the mountain anxiously waiting for the news to tense up. Most of them were silently praying to heaven for Master Wu Pu.

The sound of the bell also made Xun Song, who was standing on the tall building of his home and looking at Zhongshan, feel his heart sink, but he unconsciously looked in the direction of the river. He didn't know when Yunfeng would return, and he didn't dare to imagine what happened after Wu Pu's death.

The disastrous consequences are that I can only watch helplessly and have nothing to do.

The sound of the bell also made all the important ministers on Toutuo Ridge feel trembling! They knew that perhaps when the sun fully rose, the outcome of this battle would be clear.

"Hahahaha~~" Liu Kun held the gun in his hand and said with a big smile: "In today's battle, I don't care about success or failure, and I don't care about life or death, but I want a happy hearing. My dear, please!"

Master Wu Puzhen clasped his hands and saluted, and said calmly: "The Prime Minister said it well. It is a blessing in my life to be able to confirm it with the Prime Minister's seal. Please!"

In an instant, two extremely cold momentums centered on the two of them spread out in all directions, even the nascent sun dimmed. Everyone onlookers were shocked, and they quickly calmed down and hugged Yuan Shouyi, including Director Wang and Yu Liangzhi.

You can vaguely see the air ripples caused by the intersection of the two momentums!

"Kakakaka~~!" A chattering sound suddenly came from the spectators, and everyone turned their heads to take a look. It turned out to be the old guy Nanton Wang Zong. His eyes were dull, his lips were blue and his face was white, and his calves were shaking.

Strange, this old guy is over seventy years old, has a weak body and a weak kidney. He is not proficient in martial arts, and he is not as good as Bian Yi who studied poetry and books. With the great Confucian righteousness accompanying him, how can an ordinary person withstand the imposing manner of a top master?

Fight?

Everyone just glanced at him casually and turned their attention back, and no one paid him any attention.

Liu Kun and Wu Puzhen were not in a hurry to take the lead. They were both trying to build up their momentum. In the silent battle, they were looking for each other's flaws. For top players like them, even if they left the station from the beginning to the end, they would not be able to do anything.

You will feel anxious.

Liu Kun narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at his nose, and his nose looked at his heart, but the acupuncture points on his ears had already gathered strength. The sound of the whistling wind in the mountains and the neighing of the goshawk a hundred feet above his head were all rough and turbid.

The sound of breathing, even the grass

Inside, he could clearly hear the tiny rustling sounds of insects crawling around, but his attention was entirely focused on Wu Pu Zhenren. He was listening intently to the blood flow in Wu Pu Zhenren's body in order to determine the route of Qi Jin.

.

‘Wu Qin Xi is indeed worthy of its reputation, and it actually moves Qi in such an incredible way!’ Liu Kun secretly admired in his heart that he had roughly figured out Wu Puzhen’s method of moving Qi, which undoubtedly increased his chances of winning by another 20%.

"Huh?" A ray of light suddenly burst out in Liu Kun's eyes. He was about to take action first, but his heart moved, and a loud shout floated faintly in the wind: "Stone City is the gateway to Jiankang, how can we allow Xianbei slaves to occupy it?

? Send the order, the whole army attacks, and make sure to kill all the Xianbei dog slaves!"

In an instant, Liu Kun felt a gloomy energy rushing straight to the top of his head, and he almost jumped up and cursed his mother. His calm state of mind was completely destroyed, but he did not dare to act rashly, and immediately put the gun across his chest and took a temporary defensive position!

This loud shout also reached everyone's ears. All the important ministers were startled, and they rushed to the edge of the cliff one after another. They looked down and saw shadowy figures scattered on the river below Stone City.

The shadow of the sail, and the side of Stone City facing the river, was already full of fire, and bursts of black smoke rose into the sky. Even those with good hearing could hear shrill screams!

Suddenly, there was an uproar on Toutuo Ridge!

Huan Yi was stunned and said: "What is going on? Where did this navy come from? How dare you attack Stone City?"

Bian Yi seemed thoughtful and exclaimed in disbelief: "Could it be that King Qin is back? But why did he attack Stone City?"

"Hmph!" Nanton Wang Zong snorted angrily: "That's the traitor! Who else is so bold except him? Damn it! He is really a coward. Could he want to rebel? Everyone, you must not let this go.

Hey, let’s work together to kill him today and avoid future troubles forever!”

Everyone, even Murong Xuan, looked like an idiot. King Qin was on the boat and didn't even go ashore. How could he kill him? But, what on earth did he want to do? Regarding Yunfeng's roar

, no one takes it seriously.

The Prince of Nanton seemed to realize his lies, his old face turned slightly red, his eyes that were bursting with blazing anger were widened to their maximum size, and he looked down.

Gradually, except for Murong Xin and Nandun Wangzong, all the important ministers had complicated expressions on their faces. They looked up and down at Liu Kun and Wu Pu. They were all struggling in the political arena.

The ten-year-old fox had figured out Yunfeng's intentions to some extent. Gao! It was indeed Gao. What a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao!

"Pa-ta-da~~pa-ta-da~~" Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps on the mountain road, and everyone looked over to see a personal entourage of Liu Kun rushing towards him!

The follower quickly ran to Murong Xin and said in panic: "General, something bad is going on! The Qin army is attacking Stone City!"

Murong Xuan shouted quickly: "Why are you panic? Tell me carefully! What is the strength of the Qin army? Is the war situation serious?"

"General!" The attendant quickly organized his sentences and saluted: "The King of Qin led his fleet back not long ago, and immediately arranged warships on the river to attack Stone City. There are about a hundred or so Qin warships, which is not too many.

Fire bombs are really powerful and have a long range. The missiles in the city are

The stone machine couldn't hit him, but he was able to throw fire bombs onto the city. As soon as the battle started, our army was in a dilemma of being beaten and unable to fight back. Because the Qin army's warships were tall, more than ten of them were almost as big as the city.

It's all level, and you only need to put up wooden planks to climb into the city. I'm afraid, the situation is not good!"

Everyone showed a look of horror for the second time, secretly frightened by the sharp attack power of the Qin navy. After all, standing on the top of a mountain more than 100 feet high and looking at the river more than 20 miles away, it can be compared to a green river.

With the thin tape, you can only get a general view of the battle below, but not the details.

Liu Kun listened to the report of his personal entourage word for word. He dared to swear that if he could find Yunfeng's ancestral grave, he would not hesitate to send someone to dig it up! Although this is an evil act that is outraged by both humans and gods, it is not

This is not enough to vent the anger in my heart!

Liu Kun understood Yunfeng's intention, which was to attack him to prevent the decisive battle with Master Wu Pu. What if he ignored it for the time being and rushed back after killing Master Wu Pu? This idea was quickly suppressed in a flash.

There was no way, the unfavorable situation of the battle made him confused, and he could no longer maintain his peak condition. Otherwise, not only would he fail to defeat the tiger, but he would also be likely to be taken advantage of by the tiger. What's more, Stone City was very important to Liu Kun.

Due to its strategic location, his grain, grass, equipment, and armor are all piled up in Stone City. If Yunfeng breaks through, the consequences will be unimaginable. First of all, the 40,000 troops stationed in Jiankang will be in danger of running out of food!

Liu Kun took a deep breath and bowed his hand to Master Wu Pu: "The Qin army suddenly attacked. Kun must rush there. Master, I'm really sorry. I'll come back to visit on another day and say goodbye!"
