After He Tianao returned to Guilin, the four demon-eliminating sects temporarily lost contact. They all recruited soldiers and trained soldiers in their own territory, and made full efforts to sprint for the New Year activities that were more than a month later.

In a blink of an eye, time has come to the first day of the fifth month. The haze of He Xichen's death gradually faded into the Fairy Sword Hall. At least on the surface, Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing did not often talk about this. Zhu Shixiao had finally accepted the recovery of the demonic power and came to the Fairy Sword Hall to practice with the purifying envoys, but there were two conditions: one was that Chen Shuqing participated in the year-round, and the other was that they did not agree to sleep in the same room.

On the night two days before departure, Zhu Shixia called Su Sanniang into the lobby. After taking a seat, Zhu Shixia asked: "Su Sanniang, I have a question that I have always wanted to ask you, that is, since you were chosen by God to become the purifying messenger, subduing demons and eliminating demons has become your mission. But do you still have your original ideals in the world?"

Su Sanniang said in confusion: "I dare to ask what the so-called human affairs are?"

Zhu Shixiao smiled and said, "That is, as a soldier of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, do you still have the intention to overthrow the Qing demon's rule?"

Su Sanniang was stunned. Faced with such questions, she would have answered affirmatively without hesitation in the past, but now the most respected Yi King Shi Dakai has passed away, and the rest of the parts have fallen apart. The core regime far away in Tianjing has also shrunk and smaller under the encirclement of the Qing army, and its survival has been around. She has been constantly wondering whether everything Hong Tianwang did was to build a perfect "little paradise" for the world, or just to realize her personal ambitions, but after thinking about it, she still did not want to deny all of this and said, "If there is a chance, my disciple will continue to fight for the poor."

Zhu Shixiao nodded slightly, narrowed her eyes and sighed, "Although my teacher is greedy for money, she also has lofty ideals. As a descendant of the Zhu family, in order to support those uprisingers who resisted the Qing demons, her teacher has given you great support to the kingdom of heaven, regardless of human, financial, and material resources. Back then, I saw that Hong Xiuquan was heroic, with strict military discipline, and winning battles. She was the most favored of all the rebels. She even gave him a treasure map passed down from my ancestors. Unexpectedly, they had achieved a small achievement and began to degenerate and corrupt, and ended up with this end. It really made me regret it..."

Su Sanniang had already regarded the treasure map as an ominous thing. Now that she heard this, she suddenly remembered the nightmare in the Kunlun Cave. She felt a little restless and said resolutely: "Master, don't be sad. The treasure map has been twisted and turned for a few times, and now it has fallen into my disciple's hand and placed it in my room. If Master wants to go back, take it away."

Zhu Shihua smiled disapprovingly and said, "What's the use of that treasure map? More than 20 years ago, I didn't send someone to Kunlun Mountain to look for treasures, but I returned without success every time. The treasure is neither a monster nor a sacred object, and cannot be perceived. I can only bet on the forbidden area of ​​life with my naked eyes, so I have given up. The reason I gave it to Hong Xiuquan was just a favor and let him give it a try. The teacher called you here today not for the map, but for other arrangements."

Su Sanniang was stunned: "What does the master want his disciple to do? Please tell me!"

Zhu Shihua took a sip of tea, cleared his throat and said, "Now the power of our hall and the Yongsheng Sect has increased and decreased. With you, Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing have become the unsupported leaders of the four sects. This time, whether Qin Yong is eliminated or not, the teacher will have enough confidence to regain the position of leader. However, this is only the first step. When we control the four sects, the second step is that the teacher must let the four sects merge. In this way, we will have enough power to control Guangxi and use this as a base to start our own uprising."

Su Sanniang was shocked when she heard this: "It turns out that the master actually has such lofty ambitions. This is the first time my disciple has heard it today!"

Zhu Shixia smiled and said, "Otherwise, why do you think I want so much money to come?"

"But, Master, you have already..."

Zhu Shihua laughed and said, "Haha, do you want to say, your teacher is old and almost buried? No, as long as the blood of the Zhu family can rebuild the Ming Dynasty, what does it matter if I am or descendants sit on that chair?"

Su Sanniang said in a difficult situation: "But, Master promised us that when the year is over and Master ascended the leader, he would let the three of us leave..."

Zhu Shihua said: "Yes, of course, that's right. This is why I hope that before you leave, I will do something for you. Otherwise, I'll have no chance after tomorrow."

Su Sanniang said, "I understand, what does Master want me to do?"

Zhu Shixiao said: "Before you joined the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, you were a member of the Tiandihui. Do you know what happened in Guangxi during your Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's battles in the north and south for more than ten years?"

Su Sanniang smiled and said, "Master, have you forgotten? My disciple had practiced here before going north to Sichuan. I heard that our Xunzhou Prefecture once established a short-term regime called Dacheng Kingdom from Tiandihui, but it failed three years ago."

Zhu Shixiao shook his head and said, "Wrong, although the Dacheng Kingdom has perished, the Heaven and Earth Association of Xunzhou has not perished. They have just moved underground, but have never stopped their efforts to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty!"

Su Sanniang stood up from her seat with a "leap" and opened her eyes wide and said, "What? Master, are you talking about the Heaven and Earth Society of the disciple and Luo Dagang? Are you still there?"

Zhu Shixiao gestured to Su Sanniang to sit down and whispered: "I am well-informed. The Heaven and Earth Association is indeed still there, but it is not the one from you and Luo Dagang, so it is hard to say. After all, the Heaven and Earth Association is spread all over the southern provinces, especially the most complex and mysterious organizations in Guangxi. The teacher heard that in Jintian Village, the remaining part of the Heaven and Earth Association is still gathering, so I want to ask you to inquire tomorrow and identify the reality and reality. If they really have the intention of rebelling against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, then see if they can convince them to join our church and work together in the future!"

Su Sanniang responded happily: "Whether it is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or the Tiandihui, they are like-minded people with me, Su Sanniang. Now Qing Yao and the real monster have colluded with the world, causing trouble for all living beings. And they are all my enemies. If you can convince like-minded people to join the church and fight to overthrow Qing Yao, your disciples will be unable to ask for it!"

After hearing this, Zhu Shihua slapped the table and said, "Okay, then thank you for your hard work tomorrow."

Su Sanniang thought of something and said again: "I hope my master will be grateful for it."

"you say."

Su Sanniang bowed and said, "When he was in Sichuan, his disciples became companions with Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing. They also said that if they came to Guangxi, they hope to go to the place where the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was uprising. Why not take this opportunity to let them go with their disciples tomorrow?"

Zhu Shixiao weighed the matter and said, "Okay, it's time to set out, and just practice is not very meaningful. You three go together. If you encounter any unexpected problems, you can take care of each other. If you go to meet them immediately, it's your idea to be a teacher."

"yes!"

...

The next day, outside Jintian Village, Guiping County.

Three fast horses stopped on a hill, Pu Zixuan rode on the horse, looking at the bungalows with black tiles and white walls on the green space below the hillside, and they complained: "Oh, I always thought that Jintian Village was next to Guiping County. I didn't expect that it was more than fifty miles away. After running here for a long time, I saw that the scenery was just like this..."

Su Sanniang hummed, "To you, it is a scenery, but to me, it is a precious memory. Do you know how many stories have happened here? Every house you see can be more or less related to me. Take the three rows of houses in the east as an example. Three masters, one man joined the Taiping Army, one family once sent us food, and another family. The master is a handsome and strong man, but he just wants to live a peaceful life. No matter how he spreads the voice of God to him, he will not join..."

After saying that, Su Sanniang pointed to a fortress-like mansion in the distance and said, "That was the place where we discussed and swore, called Fujiazhai. Luo Dagang and I also officially became members of the Taiping Army. There are many rooms and corridors inside, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the remaining forces of the heaven and earth want to find a position, it must be the best place. Let's go and have a look."

The three of them put the horses on the side of the road and prepared to enter the village. In order to prevent being recognized by the villagers, Su Sanniang changed into a completely different face under Chen Shuqing's magic. Pu and Chen naturally did not need to disguise, so they followed Su Sanniang curiously to the fortress.

This place is deserted, with decaying grass all over the sky, and the walls are in ruins. It seems that they have been abandoned for many years. There is still a faint smell of rotten smell in the air. If it were an ordinary person, even if he saw this scene in broad daylight, he would be heartbroken.

The gate was closed, and the three of them flew over the high wall of Fujiazhai and came to the courtyard. They saw that there were also lush weeds under their feet, making it difficult to get off their feet. In the quiet air, the pungent smell was even stronger. Chen Shuqing was so uncomfortable that she covered her nostrils.

Su Sanniang said sadly: "It's been thirteen years, thirteen years, Fujiazhai, I'm back again! But where are you all going, outline, your soul, have you ever wandered back to where we set out..."

Su Sanniang paced back and forth in the courtyard, feeling deeply moved, and even chanted loudly: "Fenghua Pavilion, Gaoxi Temple, Maxi Temple, the wise ruler passed on his family, and worshiped the alliance tonight, and became brothers of his country, and had no other heart..."

Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing were listening inexplicably. Suddenly, a man's voice came from above: "Who is chanting the oath of joining our Tiandihui?"

The three of them looked up in the voice and saw three men and women flying down from a window on the second floor, all wearing simple blue cloth clothes, landing in four directions, southeast, west and north. As soon as they landed on the ground, they pulled out their big swords from their waists and surrounded the three of them.

Three men, one with a national face, one with a dark skin, and the other with a silly smile on their mouths, showing buck teeth.

The man with a national face asked alertly: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Su Sanniang looked around and saw the appearance of the visitor clearly. Her eyes finally stopped on the woman with thin eyebrows and asked in surprise and joy: "You...are you Lu Lianhua?"

The woman was stunned and asked back, "Who are you?"

Su Sanniang released a little purifying power, purified Chen Shuqing's magic, revealed her true face, and asked again: "Do you recognize me now?"

"Su Sanniang!" Lu Lianhua said in shock, "You are not dead? Moreover, you awaken the power of purification!"

This time, Su Sanniang was shocked: "What? Can you see the blue light on my body just now?"

Just when the people on both sides were shocked by the other party's identity, another man's voice came from the second floor: "Hahaha, there is something more interesting. That other woman is a monster, and there is a piece of Yanagi Yagi in her body!"

After saying that, another tough man with a bearded face flew down and said to Chen Shuqing: "It's been a long time since I've been there, my sister."

When Chen Shuqing saw the visitor, she changed her face and shouted out his name in dismay.
