[Yitian Tongren] Crane Returns to Lianbi

The next day, the bell to summon the congregation rang on the Bright Peak. Zhang Wuji, wearing white clothes, accompanied by Yang Xiao and Fan Yao, stepped onto the high platform with awe-inspiring expressions.The heroes of the Ming Cult stood on both sides of the main hall according to their duties, and they all thought: "That day when the leader got married, the left and right of the light clearly hated the young leader, but now they follow every step of the way. I don't know how many books the leader punished them for copying?" Seeing Zhang Wuji pass the crowd , went straight to the holy fire altar, Yang Dingtian stood at his head instead, it was even more strange.

Zhang Wuji knelt in front of the holy fire altar, and prayed in a low voice: "Disciple Zhang Wuji, who was ordered to master Mingjiao, has been fighting for ten years, and his merits and demerits are intertwined. He has been pitied by the Mingzun, and he came back from the world. Now his wish has been fulfilled, and he dare not fall in love. Only May the great sage have mercy on your heart, and eliminate the heavy crimes of ignorance that have passed through the kalpa, so that they can be eliminated. We dare not be disrespectful today, and we should all hold the supreme precious tree, so that the order is complete." Yang Xiaofan Yao Kneeling behind Zhang Wuji, the scriptures recited by Zhang Wuji came to his ears clearly.

But after a while, Zhuang Zheng, the envoy of the Ruijin Banner in charge of the flag, came to report that the leader's fiancée and senior brother had been safely delivered to the foot of the mountain. Zhang Wuji stood up slowly, condescendingly, looking at the two spots of blood on the corner of Zhuang Zheng's robe, and said: "Thank you Zhuang Banner." Zhuang Zheng was startled, glanced at Yang Dingtian, cupped his hands and said, "Your subordinates should do what you want, young master, you don't have to be polite." Zhang Wuji nodded and said, "Master Yang, I wish you great success I teach, expel the barbarians, do good and eliminate evil, uphold righteousness and eliminate evil, so that I can honor the holy fire and benefit the world." The Ming Cult heroes didn't understand the situation in front of them, and seeing Zhang Wuji's arrogant words, rude behavior, and irascible temper, they opened their mouths Shouting, but seeing Yang Dingtian's serious expression, he put his knees on the ground and said: "Yang Dingtian, the No. 30 third leader of Mingjiao, and all the congregation, thank the No. 30 fourth leader for his great kindness." Kneeling down, they hurriedly prostrated themselves on the ground together.

Zhang Wuji looked at the black crowd kneeling all over the ground below, and wanted to reach out to help, but his feet seemed to be nailed with iron nails, and he couldn't move half a step.It turned out that at some point, the holy fire had already spread, involving Zhang Wuji, and the flames spit out and flew all over his body.Standing in the raging fire, Zhang Wuji felt very peaceful and peaceful in his heart, his eyes slowly swept across everyone's faces from east to west, and finally stopped on Xie Xun, bent his knees, knelt down to return the salute, and said in a low voice: "Father, Wuji is leaving."

Zhang Wuji looked down at the raging flames coming out of his body, and his thoughts flew over, as if he had returned to the bright and scorching fire of the old year. It was not the fire of faith that burned down the prosperity of a hundred years and reborn the sky, but the fire of his own hands. Seeing the fire of remorse for the new king's massacre and suppression, and the brothers' dead bodies lying thousands of miles away.The living soul and the dead corpse will be smelted together in one furnace.Mingzun finally sympathized with the world, showed his sage's grace, and promised himself to turn the world around and put things right. As long as his parents, adoptive father, and grandfather can live in peace, the leader of the Yangdingtian sect is so talented, and he will be able to prevent it from happening. What's your regret?Zhang Wuji smiled slightly and closed his eyes.

Seeing Zhang Wuji throwing himself into the sacred fire, the Ming Cult group couldn't help exclaiming "Ah", and they were even more surprised to see that he was a living person who disappeared immediately after entering the fire.Yang Dingtian bowed to the sacred fire three times, stood up, looked at the audience with cold eyes, and said: "Get up. If you are not convinced, I will also light a fire and send you to Wuji, okay? "Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak.

After a long time, Zhou Dian asked Ai Ai in disbelief: "He... he is the holy fire... the holy fire descended... descended into the world... he disliked us for being vulgar, so he went back?" Although crazy, these words are true, and my heart suddenly turned from joy at seeing a miracle to depression.Peng Yingyu shouted: "You nonsense bastard! Didn't the leader say that that one is the next leader of our sect? It is expected that he saw the spring and autumn of the leader of the Yang sect, and the sect was peaceful, so he didn't want to separate powers, so he chose Time to come again!" Yin Tianzheng said: "I see that there are many classics in the religion that record the story of Mingzi saving the religion from danger. I heard that Mingzi's real name is Zhang, and he has the power to reach heaven and earth. He has lived for hundreds of years and is still a young man. It looks like, at the end of the Song Dynasty, he fell in love with a scholar of the Southern Dynasty, and since then he has lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and has never cared about world affairs. The young master is also surnamed Zhang, so is he a descendant of Mingzi?" Yang Dingtian sighed and said: "If you talk about it, Wuji But your grandson, Eagle King."

Yin Tianzheng was at a loss, thinking: the leader would never lie, but Susu is only one year old, how is this possible?Yang Dingtian turned his back to look at the holy flame, quietly revealing Zhang Wuji's identity.From the fact that Cheng Kun's lover was taken away and the conflict between good and evil was sworn to destroy Mingjiao, Xie Xun's family was ruined and his eyes were blinded, and he took a knife to take people into captivity. The position of the temporary leader also explains that the newly established leader of the religion is kind-hearted and united with the six major sects to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty. Finally, it is said that the elders in the religion are arrogant and arrogant, and the young people retreat to the desert in despair. The sand is scattered, and the old path of destruction is repeated. The young man rushes to help, but in the end he is powerless to return to heaven and dies for each other.These deeds seem to be all unbelievable, but all of them are reasonable, and they are all in line. The more the Mingjiao group heard it, the more frightened they became. In the end, they were all sweating and trembling.

Yang Xiao and Fan Yao still knelt in front of the holy fire altar, these words, Zhang Wuji leaned in Yang Xiao's arms last night, holding Fan Yao's hand, he had already told them.Whether it was to Yang Dingtian, or Yang Xiao and Fan Yao, Zhang Wuji never talked about the discord between his brothers in the sect, and buried all the grievances and bullying he had suffered in his heart.Fan Yao said a few more words: "Mingjiao does have an order not to be an official or a king. You have the great kindness to protect us and save our lives. We will only respect and convince you more. Do you dare to make a fuss?" Zhang Wuji just smiled and said: "I felt bored, so I left. When I first met Uncle Yang, I was only 15 years old. At that time, Uncle Yang was already over fifty years old. In my eyes, he was still like a fairy. Later, I obeyed Uncle Yang's order and became the leader of the Ming Cult. Uncle Yang respected me very much, but only respect. I didn't care at all how other people treated me. But I didn't expect Fan Youshi to be more respectful than me. It's even more stupid to abandon my position and live in seclusion with me, without showing the slightest intention."

Zhang Wuji avoided talking about it, Yang Xiao vaguely guessed something, Yang Dingtian's eyes were like a torch, and he was familiar with the behavior and temperament of each of his subordinates, and after a little probing, he was almost about to curse, Zhang Wuji in turn comforted him, saying that everyone was of the same heart Kang Yuan, since he is young and inexperienced, he should listen more to his seniors.

Yang Xiao stared blankly at the sacred flame, not listening to Yang Dingtian's accusations of despicableness and filth.The sacred fire is always burning, it benefits the world, it is impartial, impartial and selfless, it is very much like Zhang Wuji's warmth and integrity, if you look closely, Zhang Wuji can be seen softly calling "Uncle Yang" in the flames, and Yang Xiao can't help but stand up , approached Zhang Wuji.Fan Yao didn't wake up until the tongue of fire licked Yang Xiao's white clothes and black hair. He pulled Yang Xiao and said, "Brother, wake up! His meritorious deeds are outstanding in the world, and Mingzun must have personally led him into the Great Bright Palace!"

The smell of burning flesh from the flames wafted into the air, Yang Dingtian shouted: "Yang Xiao, if you die like this, are you worthy of Wuji's life?" Brother Fan is even more stupid?" Fan Yao helped Yang Xiao back a few steps, and said, "Brother, we must inherit the legacy of the young master, so that we can live up to the compassionate intention of respecting him to reunite with us in a lifetime! If you die like this What face do you have to see him?" Yang Xiao murmured, "Ming Zun is merciful...Ming Zun is merciful..." Breaking free from Fan Yao, he knelt down in front of the holy fire altar and cried, "I beg Ming Zun to show mercy again, Xu Wuji When he comes back into the world, I will definitely protect his life in peace and joy, and never let anyone put a finger on him!" Seeing the holy fire jumping twice, Yang Dingtian was very surprised, and then he also knelt down, saying: "Seeking Ming Respect the mercy, Mingjiao up and down, dare to die and live up to it!" The holy flame, which was usually burning quietly, exploded slightly, and then fell into silence again.The heroes of the Ming Cult didn't hesitate, knelt down and prayed together, and said in unison: "Ming Zun is merciful, I will die to live up to the young master!"

Yang Xiao knelt at the position closest to the holy fire, staring blankly at the holy fire, his eyes were steamed with stars, and the burnt place was even hotter and painful.After a long time, there seemed to be a faint sigh coming from the holy fire. Yang Xiao was wondering, when suddenly his arms sank, and a small baby boy appeared out of nowhere in his arms!

Yang Xiao hugged the baby, his heart was shocked, his hands trembled, and he shouted: "Master... Master... It's true! Look at me! Look at me!" He was incoherent in joy, and everyone gathered around him. Look at that baby boy.The baby boy was lying quietly in Yang Xiao's arms, his eyes were closed tightly, and his breathing was calm. Except for a mark of flying flames on his chest, he was no different from ordinary newborn babies.Yin Tianzheng saw the boy's delicate and handsome melon-seeded face, which was very similar to Yin Susu, and couldn't help reaching out to hug him. Yang Xiao retracted his arms and shouted: "What are you going to do!" Yin Tianzheng said: "He is my grandson. , I naturally want to take him home." Yang Xiao's complexion changed, and before he could speak, Xie Xun rushed to say: "How can grandpa kiss his adoptive father, he should follow me." Yang Xiao said coldly: "Before you take the child away, ask yourself, have you ever carried him on your shoulders?" The leaders of the Ming Cult were scolded by Yang Dingtian, and all of them withdrew their hands after hearing the words.

Yang Dingtian stretched out his arms to hug the baby, gently stroked his sleeping face, and said, "This child is still named Zhang Wuji, and he is still the next leader of my Ming Cult, but we can't leave him with a heavy burden. Yang Xiao , Fan Yao, the two of you led Fenglei from heaven and earth to stay in the main altar, punish the educational affairs, and raise the children. The Eagle King and Lion King were divided from Jiangnan and Mobei to block food and grass. Fang Liaison, the five-element flag is dispatched by this seat, whoever is in a hurry, he will come to help." Looking down at the little Zhang Wuji in his arms, he said: "From now on, we must obey the young master's wishes, abide by the religious rules, and do good deeds. Get rid of evil, drive out darkness for the sake of the light, don't hurt people too much, don't kill innocent people, only then can the people's hearts be converted and great achievements can be achieved."

Yang Xiao and Fan Yao were overjoyed to hear that the leader appointed them to stay in Guangmingding to take care of Zhang Wuji. Yin Tianzheng and Xie Xun had no objection when he thought that he could eliminate hidden dangers for the child. The rest of them were heroes who cared about the suffering of the people. Heaven's arrangement, everyone applauded.

Zhang Wuji seemed startled by the sound, waved his hands and feet, and opened his eyes.Although Yang Dingtian is older, but he has never had a child, he just finds it funny when he sees him, he puts his finger on the corner of Zhang Wuji's mouth to tease him to chase after food.Zhang Wuji blinked his eyes, opened his mouth, bit Yang Dingtian's finger and began to suck.Yang Dingtian's heart softened, and he smiled and said, "Is this child hungry? King Ying, does your nurse have enough?" Yin Tian was staring at Zhang Wuji's dull gaze, dazed, and after a while, he turned to Yang Dingtian Pleading guilty, he said: "This subordinate is rude, please forgive me, and ask the leader to call Hu Qingniu to come!"

Hu Qingniu was invited by Wei Yixiao to Zhang Wuji in the medical hut with his light work. After examining Zhang Wuji with a frowning face, the wrinkles on his face deepened. Stop!" Before he finished the word "stop", his eyes went dark, and his body was suspended in the air, and he had been put into a cloth bag by the cloth bag monk, and sent back to the medical hut.Hu Qingniu shook his head, thinking in his mind how hard the injection would be and how bitter the medicinal materials would be next time he met these impolite brats.What Hu Qingniu didn't know was that as soon as he uttered the word "throw", Yang Xiao made a move like lightning, snatching Zhang Wuji from Yang Dingtian's arms and protecting him tightly. , It is not yet known who will be thrown away.

Yang Dingtian shook his head when he saw that he had stepped into the hall again, and couldn't help frowning.Peng Yingyu said: "Dongpo layman Xi'er wrote in his poem: Everyone adopts a son who hopes to be smart, but I hope the child is stupid and unruly. The young master's five senses are not complete. It must be that Ming Zun hopes that he will maintain a clear state of mind. We have already been in Ming Zun's holy fire. I made a vow before, and I will never betray it. Why don't you let the Eagle King take the young master down to find a nanny first." Hearing this, Yang Xiao hugged his arms even tighter, and stared at Yin Tianzheng with a look of defense in his eyes .Yang Dingtian said: "Yang Xiao, you handed the child to the Eagle King, and the child needs to be nursed. Do you still want to watch?" I will take a look at her." Yang Dingtian sighed, and said, "Succeed, King Ying, let Ye Wang take Wuji down, and King Ying, King Lion and Fan Yao go to buy things the child needs."

Zhou Dian called Yang Xiao to stop, and said with a smile: "Yang Zuoshi, the Young Master was born from the fire, I'm afraid the food is different from ordinary people." Yang Xiao said coldly: "Then trouble Brother Dian to be the Young Master. Try it." Yang Dingtian coughed twice, changed the topic, and said, "Before Wuji died..." Yang Xiao glared at Yang Dingtian angrily when he heard this, Yang Dingtian knew he had made a mistake, but Seeing Yang Xiao's appearance of a mother animal protecting its cubs, he thought it was funny again, so he deliberately changed his words and said, "Wuji left a military book when he was alive, let's take advantage of these few days to learn it."

The military book is called "Wu Mu's Last Letter", which was transcribed by Zhang Wuji himself from memory. After Yang Dingtian led the crowd down to Guangmingding, the military book was still returned to Zhang Wuji.Yang Xiao practiced his promise, often holding Zhang Wuji in his arms, telling him various collections of classics and history, Fan Yao collected interesting things and brought them back, and gave them to Zhang Wuji.Yang Dingtian will order people to copy the military affairs and educational affairs handed in by his subordinates, and send them to Zhang Wuji for his consultation every month, and countless treasures are sent along with the books.Everyone only regarded Zhang Wuji as an ordinary child, and saw him born from the holy fire with their own eyes, so they dared not treat him as an ordinary person.

Zhang Wuji was free from disease and disaster in Guangmingding. When he was ten years old, Mingjiao finally succeeded in his great cause, driving Meng Yuan back to Mobei, and recovering the great Han.Yang Xiao and Fan Yao escorted Zhang Wuji to the new capital. Along the way, no matter the underworld or the white way, everyone was very respectful, and the praises of the people were endless.

When they were approaching the new capital, someone announced their entry into the city early, and the leaders and soldiers greeted them thirty miles away. Yang Dingtian carried Zhang Wuji in his arms and rode together on a horse.Zhang Wuji huddled in Yang Dingtian's arms and couldn't stop trembling. Yang Dingtian thought he was scared when he came to a strange place, and was angry that Yang Xiao was too doting on Zhang Wuji. At the request of Zhang Wuji, he personally took Zhang Wuji back to his room to teach him.However, Zhang Wuji was half-conscious, sitting quietly at the table, dressed in gorgeous clothes, with an uncommon face, like a doll, Yang Dingtian didn't know how to talk to Zhang Wuji for a while, so he could only order someone to help Zhang Wuji change his clothes and go to bed.

At midnight, the Holy Fire Hall shines with splendor.Yang Dingtian woke up with a start, and Zhang Wuji beside him had disappeared early. Thinking of Zhang Wuji's strange state after entering the city, Yang Dingtian cursed himself secretly, and hurried out with his clothes on.Many people outside had knelt down and prayed towards the Holy Fire Hall, chanting the "Prince's Underbirth Sutra", Yang Dingtian was dazed, almost fascinated by the sound of chanting, and wanted to kneel down and worship together with them.

Yang Dingtian approached the holy fire hall step by step, the closer he was, the fewer people there were, and when he came to the door, he was already sweating through his heavy clothes, and he was about to walk on his knees, but the moment he stepped into the hall, the pressure suddenly eased.Yang Dingtian took a long breath, knowing that if his mind was not extremely firm, he would definitely not be able to walk in.

Although the Great Precepts of the Sacred Fire Order forbid the congregation to call themselves kings and emperors, but when fighting a war, in order to appeal to the hearts of the people, it is unavoidable to exaggerate their names.The Holy Fire Hall at this moment is modeled after the Golden Luan Hall, with a gold-painted and carved dragon throne.Zhang Wuji hugged Yuxi and sat on the throne with a solemn expression.

Yang Dingtian stood at the bottom, looking up at Zhang Wuji, his thoughts fluctuated, ten years ago Zhang Wuji died and came back to life, as if in front of his eyes, today, it seems that the old things will repeat itself.The people in the hall gradually increased, Yang Xiao, Fan Yao and the leaders of the Ming Cult had also arrived, everyone was breathing heavily and couldn't stop panting.Yang Xiao suddenly thought of the Yunhai Tenglong costume that Zhang Wuji wore when he first went to Guangmingding. It was not royal wealth at all, but shackles.

The ever-bright holy flame led down from the top of the light was extinguished suddenly, and then it was brightly lit. Someone took advantage of the sudden dimming of the holy flame and asked gloomily: "We want to ask the leader to answer a question: In the heart of the leader, it is he Is it more important, or our Mingjiao brothers?" Everyone was shocked, and many of them couldn't hold on, their knees softened and they knelt on the ground.Zhang Wuji trembled all over, slowly opened his eyes that were always closed, glanced at everyone's faces one by one, and said: "If I sit on this chair, I can give Mingjiao a peace, and I will definitely not quit." The clear voice shocked the audience.

Yang Dingtian snatched Zhang Wuji up before everyone shouted long live, and said: "General Xu Da Xu is a generous man, and you personally taught him the art of war, and he will never betray Mingjiao." Zhang Wuji said blankly, "Brother Xu?" Yang Dingtian said "The new king is Xu Da. Now the people live in peace and the Ming religion is flourishing. The past is gone." Zhang Wuji looked behind Yang Dingtian, saw Yang Xiao and Fan Yao's faces full of concern, and called out in a daze. One voice: "Uncle Yang..."

Yang Xiao took Zhang Wuji's small body and said in a low voice, "It's me. It's all over. I will always be with you from now on." These few words, ten years ago on the eastbound road, Yang Xiao once said to Zhang Wuji. Zhang Wuji said, but back then Zhang Wuji knew he was going to die, so he didn't dare to respond, now Zhang Wuji put his arms around Yang Xiao, cried loudly, nodded while crying, tears and snot flowed down Yang Xiao's neck into his collar.

Fan Yao hugged Zhang Wuji, and said with a smile: "You should be happy today, don't cry, be good." He whispered into Zhang Wuji's ear, "Do you think I can hack the dragon chair?" Zhang Wuji secretly Breathing a breath of true energy all over his body, looking at Yang Dingtian and then at the dragon chair, he nodded childishly, and replied in a low voice: "Yes."

Fan Yao straightened his face, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and said loudly: "If anyone dares to say that the young master has chilled your hearts, then you should dig out this blood and give it back to the young master! I, Fan Yao, hereby swear that if I meet an ungrateful person again, I will never forgive you lightly. If you break this oath, there will be such a chair!" A cold light flashed, the long sword fell, and there was a soft chirping sound. Two, reveal a flat and smooth incision.Everyone in the hall's faces changed, and they thought to themselves: "Fan Youshi's martial arts are so powerful, he can cut gold and jade with just a long fine steel sword?"

Yang Dingtian was about to scold Fan Yao for messing around, but Zhang Wuji withdrew his hand on Fan Yao's vest, clapped his hands and laughed, and said in his heart: "Children should be so innocent and lively. My Mingjiao is not bad for this chair. Children are happy , I can give him ten or eight chops a day." Seeing Zhang Wuji jumping off the ground and rushing towards Xie Xun and Yin Tianzheng, he couldn't help but stroking his beard and smiling, sighing to himself that it was not in vain to go from death to life in the past few years.
