The Monk

Chapter 428: War Weary

Fortunately, everyone fought and knew that the people were the most important. The war did not harm civilians, and the cultivators did not fight with ordinary people, which allowed the Wu Kingdom to survive the thousand-year civil strife.

Zhang Pa and his party listened to the fishermen's description of the Wu Kingdom as if they were listening to a heavenly book. Thinking about the people they met, whether soldiers or cultivators, they were all murderous and fearless. It was just a barrier of the Death Mountain Range, but it really turned the huge Wu Kingdom into a country of death. And I thought that the Wu Kingdom was only three thousand miles in size, which was really ridiculous.

After sending the fishermen away, Zhang Pa simply said, "Return." He originally planned to go to the Death Mountain Range to study why it was named after death, but now he didn't want to think about it. It's better to avoid trouble than anything else.

Song Yunyi was once a princess of a country and had worked hard for the country. She was kind by nature and could not bear to see innocent people suffer. She hesitated and asked, "Don't you want to take another look?" Zhang Pa understood her intention and sighed, "It's impossible to manage it unless we destroy all the thirteen major sword sects." Song Yunyi looked gloomy and nodded lightly without saying anything. Zhang Pa was telling the truth. The bigger fact was that it was impossible to destroy the thirteen major sword sects with only forty of them. Zhang Tianfang came up with a bad idea: "Let's kill them secretly, one by one; let's kill them slowly, for a hundred or two hundred years." Zhang Pa readily agreed, "Go ahead, we support you." There was no need for the big ship to return. Going out to sea was to relax and see the scenery. As long as they did not settle in the borders of Wu and did not provoke the sword sect monks, it should be fine. Fang Jian said what he was thinking, and everyone was unwilling to return to the Warring States, so they agreed, and the Five Immortals continued to travel east. Because Song Yunyi was worried about the safety of the people of Wu, Zhang Pa controlled the big ship to sail near the coast, so that he could help if he encountered killing. This trip made him realize that Wu was really big, with an unknown number of miles across. He sailed along the coast for two months but still hadn't left the border of Wu.

The coastline of Wu was a big arc. After passing this arc, the direction of the ship changed from east to north. After another month, Wu was outside, and the country bordering it was Yue.

Zhang Pa had gotten off the ship to inquire, and there was a five-mile wide and five-mile long mountain pass in the Death Mountains ahead. Passing through this mountain pass was Yue. He couldn't believe it after knowing it. The world was so big, but he didn't expect to go around and around and come back.

He wanted to return to Yue from the pass, but was stopped thirty miles away. The place was densely packed with soldiers. Countless soldiers filled the pass. With the middle of the pass as the boundary, the Bai Wu soldiers and the Yue soldiers were separated by a hundred meters. Afterwards, various protective measures were laid out in stages, including fortresses, trenches, sinkholes, etc., turning the five-mile long mountain pass into the most terrifying section of the world. The area outside the pass was directly occupied by military camps and was a restricted area. Fortunately, it was just ordinary soldiers, and the monks did not participate in it.

Zhang Pa was a little shocked. The civil strife in Wu continued, and even the only external road in the northeast corner was blocked. Could it be that there was no trade?

The land route was blocked, and everyone took a boat to go back to Yue from the sea, and then disembarked. After seeing the military battles of both sides, Zhang Pa was very moved. Fortunately, Bai Wu did not send troops to Yue, otherwise with the help of Bai Wu Sword Sect, it would be easy to occupy half of Yue. You must know that the four major demon sects in Yue were destroyed and three were injured. They were shrinking to recover their vitality and were unable to fight at all.

This is Zhang Pa's fault. Cultivators are the most arrogant, and few of them are willing to be busy for worldly affairs. The Baiwu Sword Sect participated in the civil strife in Wu because of relatives involved, and some things had to be done. But if they were asked to help attack the city, they would forget it, because they were not a war weapon of a certain court.

Set foot on the land of Yue State and choose a small road to the north. Everyone walked slowly, and two days later they saw a big river, with magnificent waves and magnificent momentum. Zhang Pa smiled, it turned out to be Ninghe River. Another 500 miles along the river is the estuary of Ninghe River. When tracking down the three bastards of Qingmen Tiandiren Sancai Sword Formation, they went back and forth several times, but at that time they just passed by with their spiritual consciousness, and did not really wander around here. Now I have some free time, so I appreciate it carefully with everyone.

Seeing Ninghe River, I understand why I can meet Jiaojing in the sea. The unlucky guy must have escaped into the sea from the estuary, and then went to Wu State to rest, but was discovered by the sword sect cultivators. The next step was decades of pursuit and escape, and finally met Zhang Pa.

Walking around, he met many people along the way. Most of them lived and worked in peace and contentment. Song Yunyi thought of the suffering people in Wu who suffered from wars and asked Bukong directly: "Buddha saves the world with benevolence. You are an outstanding disciple of Buddhism. Why do you watch innocent people suffer without helping?" Bukong sighed softly and said nothing. Instead, he walked in front of Zhang Pa and stared at him. Zhang Pa thought for a while and said slowly: "First, the strength of the Thirteen Sword Sects is unknown. Unless you come forward, I can't beat you; second, killing to stop killing can restore peace and order. I am not good at killing; third, to control all officials and govern the people, you should have strong means and be dedicated to the people. Who of you wants to be the emperor; fourth, the long Wu Kingdom will take a long time to travel. How many years will this battle take?" Zhang Pa wanted to be kind and be a good person, but his ability was limited. Many things could not be solved by being kind. Song Yunyi also knew this, and whispered: "A cultivator can only prove the great Dao by cutting off emotions. It is my obsession that has caused me to be confused." She felt very uncomfortable saying this. She had a deep love for Zhang Pa, so how could she cut off this love? How could she bear to cut it off?

Zhang Pa shook his head and said nothing. Zhang Tianfang interrupted: "Since you are back in Yue State, do you want to seek revenge on the four sects of the Demonic Path?"

Zhang Ain continued to shake his head: "If you want to take revenge, you should kill the monks of the Jiatang Hall of the Jin family first. We will talk about it in a few days." After saying this, a man walked to the river bank and looked down. The same water is called a river here, and when it flows into the sea, it is called the sea. Trapped in the foothills is called a stream. A small amount of water is a mountain spring, a large amount of water is a lake, it is rain in the sky, and it is snow or ice when it is cold. However, due to environmental changes, water will behave differently. The same goes for people. In Wu State, they were people in troubled times, living to save their lives; in Yue State, they were peaceful people, striving for money and power; if it were us, they would not be tempted by worldly things and only seek longevity.

He sighed while sitting by the river, and a man floated down from the river. The man had a very beautiful face and was standing lazily on the water. When Zhang Awei discovered him, he was already within a thousand meters. When he saw Zhang Awei, he said angrily: "Boy, I finally found you."

Enemy, meeting enemy again, Zhang Ain stepped forward into the river and said softly: "You go, I don't want to fight."

The man smiled sinisterly: "You said you won't fight if you don't? I swore I would kill you, so you should die." The figure slid across the river, as light and fast as a seabird.

Zhang Zhen didn't want to fight or kill. He had no grudge against this guy, and he hadn't seen this guy do anything evil. He raised his palms flat, with a thick ice wall in front of him, and said softly: "Go away, I really don't want to fight." "I don't know when he started to become war-weary.
