Xu Beizhi usually can't fart with a few sticks, but after drinking, especially if he drinks too much, he can't control his tongue, he can say anything, and he dares to say anything. Probably because there is too much ink in my stomach, and every time I don't wait to talk about it, I have already fallen asleep.
The Rouran Mountains run through the east and west of Jinchanzhou, and the southern foot of Pingchou faces each other across the irrigation canals. After autumn, you can see a gratifying picture of green and yellow, which is almost the same as the southern farming area of the Liyang Dynasty. It is a vast grassland, and the steep mountains form a natural barrier. Except for the trails formed by gaps and canyons, the north and south cannot pass through. These trails have become the throats that control the traffic between the north and the south.
Beimang has five towns in Rouran here, built city barriers near the valley, and set up five guards. The five towns are Laohuairou, Xuanjilu, Gaoque Wuchuan. Under the jurisdiction of Xuanjun Town, Rouxuan Trail is divided into two main and auxiliary roads. The main road is located at the bottom of the valley, which is spacious and convenient for war horses to gallop. The reputation of Rouxuan Army Town is concealed by a mountain peak, and there are few merchants on the centipede road. Apart from the circling and difficult centipede branches of the auxiliary road, the main reason is that they are afraid of the emperor here, the fifth raccoon, a man with a very strange name. He is the owner of Tibing Mountain, and privately known as the co-owner of Rouran Mountain, because apart from Rouxuan Army Town which is under his direct control, there are also the commanders of the two towns of Laohuai and Wuchuan who came from Tibing Mountain. The first-class sect of the Northern Mang Dynasty, the Tibing Mountain is undoubtedly the most closely integrated with the temple, and everyone dies. When the fifth raccoon's daughter married Dong Zhuo, the most promising general in the Southern Dynasty, the Tibing Mountain Being pushed to the forefront, someone from the tent immediately jumped out and questioned that the fifth raccoon was a wolf's ambition and was unwilling to submit to the court. Fortunately, Her Majesty the Empress, as always, gave her trust to the martial artist who had rescued her when she was in distress, the only daughter of the fifth raccoon. At the time of the big wedding, they even sent someone to send an extraordinary congratulatory gift. An imperial decree accepted her as a righteous daughter, and ordered that the rank of his wife's tonic should still be higher than Dong Zhuo's official rank. A laughing stock, ridiculing Dong Zhuo as a soft rice general, and even laughing at him for marrying a wife twice, each time he climbed the dragon and attached the phoenix, so it can be called a married couple.
Walking on the dark and cool Centipede Road, although there are simple elm guardrails on the outside of the path, the stone slabs are wet and slippery. Xu Beizhi, who has only learned some physical fitness boxing skills, walks tremblingly. Fortunately, Xu Fengnian is walking on his right. Feel at ease. This auxiliary road between the mountain walls is more than ten feet wide and ten feet five feet high, which is enough for a donkey and a mule to pass slowly. The roots of the inner wall are covered with moss, and the top of the wall is constantly dripping. The running horses are very easy to slip. There are many gaps in the path paved with bluestone slabs, which can also make horses' hoofs turn. If it is not for the superb equestrian skills and the horses are familiar with the centipede way, I am afraid that no one would dare to show off their riding skills here.
Xu Beizhi, who had a new wine gourd hanging from his waist, was afraid of heights, afraid of being distracted and falling, and never dared to speak. This time they went south according to Xu Beizhi's arrangement, and they chose a sleepy belly hook path with many merchants that could be easily misunderstood. Xu Fengnian, who was nicknamed persimmon by the servant boy, heard a rumor in the restaurant that someone was going to provoke Grandmaster Fifth Raccoon again at Tibing Mountain, so he dragged Xu Beizhi over to join in the fun, which made Xu Beizhi, who is used to careful planning, a little bit It's just that this persimmon insists on seeing Tibingshan's courage, Xu Beizhi can't leave him alone to walk the trap, plus the centipede road is steep and bumpy, he often puts on Xu Fengnian's face along the way, after all, Xu Beizhi is far from seeing the two younger sons of a wealthy family as a master worthy of his devotion, and Xu Fengnian also doesn't think it is necessary to pretend to be Xu Beizhi, so he is eager to recruit talents? My master Li Yishan is worth as many Xu Beizhis as you alone? In comparison, Xu Fengnian is more willing to accept the blind chess player in the ten games of Yongzi Lane, or the poor scholar who met in Baoguo Temple in the south of the Yangtze River. However, Xu Fengnian did not deny that compared to Xu Huainan, who had been up and down in the temple for a long time, Xu Beizhi still seemed a little bit childish, but he was a bit older than himself, a half-baked guy.
Centipede Road was as lonely as Huangquan Road, and there was no one around, so Xu Fengnian didn't feel embarrassed by Xu Beizhi, who was not skilled in martial arts, so he carried his bags on his own. But even so, Xu Beizhi still had to stop for a rest every ten miles or so, probably a little grateful to Xu Fengnian for taking the initiative to stop every time to take care of his face. Qianli Fertility in the south of the mountain range finally asked: "Why does His Royal Highness know how to practice martial arts? Are you afraid of delaying the military affairs in Beiliang in the future? If the grand prince and grandson of the feudal clan pass by, they will naturally be rich and prosperous. The emperor of the Zhao family will be happy to see his success." However, to maintain the honor of being hereditary and unreplaceable, one has to take great pains. King Jingan Zhao Heng lost his life, and his son Zhao Xun went to Beijing to seek wealth and wealth, not to mention that you will be the only one in the Liyang Dynasty A king with a different surname bears a heavy burden. I think only the King of Beiliang and His Royal Highness, your father and son, can feel it. I thought you would be the one who looked down on the reckless man of the rivers and lakes the most. After all, the King of Beiliang personally destroyed the divorce. Most of the people in Yangjianghu are angry. There are dragons, crouching tigers, and countless eagles and dogs hidden in the Northern Liang Palace. Why do you need His Royal Highness to learn martial arts and practice swords in person? To lure fame and fortune, there will always be countless masters who will work for you with one order."
Most of what Xu Beizhi said when he was not drinking was in such an emphatic tone, always carrying a sense of questioning.
Xu Fengnian was thinking about something on his mind, so he simply ignored Xu Huainan, who was homeless and had yet to live under the fence, and Xu Beizhi, who was neglected, was not angry either, and said to himself: "Heroes use martial arts to ban chaos, but the two imperial courts Both have unprecedented dominance over their own rivers and lakes. The rivers and lakes in Beimang have directly become the servants of the imperial court. The Liyang Dynasty also has eagle dogs for the imperial court. They fight fiercely in the nest. I really can’t figure out why it is necessary to go to this kind of lingering rivers and lakes. Go into the water."
Xu Fengnian suddenly smiled, and sat down on the rotten guardrail, seeing Xu Beizhi's heart skip a beat, Xu Fengnian looked at this tall and handsome man who liked to look at the current situation from a high position, and said plainly: "Xu Beizhi, you have seen Feijian Er with your own eyes. Thousands? Have you ever seen sea water rise with your own strength? Have you ever seen a ray of sword energy destroy a city wall?"
Xu Beizhi calmly shook his head and said: "I've never seen it before. But since ancient times, one thing has been reduced to one thing. The Sword Emperor of Xishu guarded the gate of the country for the emperor. Isn't it the same as being crushed to death by your Xu family's iron cavalry? A well-known Jianghu man Why don’t you want to fight in battle? It’s not because you’re afraid of capsized in the gutter, and the elite army often has similar martial arts for top fighters. I guess you Liyang chief assistant Zhang Julu has spared no effort to tilt the empire’s taxes to the north over the years. Let Gu Jiantang build up a force that can deal with the force of the northern mang rivers and lakes. Don't look at the mountains of Tibingshan, Chess, Sword, and Yuefu, which are very impressive. Once they are driven to fight on the battlefield, they will not be able to withstand a few large-scale wars. .”
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Are you trying to criticize me? You're calling me irresponsible?"
Xu Beizhi picked up the wine gourd and took a sip of the wine.
Instead of being angry, Xu Fengnian smiled, and sighed sincerely: "Your views are exactly the same as my second sister's. It's just that my son, before reaching the crown, only had one thing to do without doing a proper job. You can't expect me to keep a low profile and hide evil intentions at the same time. , I'm not afraid of your jokes. I don't have any direct descendants so far. After careful calculation, it seems that the two or three hundred people in Fengziying are still somewhat friendly. I hope that someone will bow to me, but the second time Traveling, during the battle of the reeds outside Xiangfan City, a Dongyue swordsman in the mansion died just scolding me for shit, His Royal Highness. At that time, I knew that no one in the world is stupid."
Xu Beizhi wiped the drink from the corner of his mouth, and joked, "So it's because I don't dare to sit on the dragon chair, not because I don't want to."
Xu Fengnian said helplessly: "Chickens talk to ducks."
Xu Beizhi said slowly: "Several major events have happened at the moment, namely, I became the emperor's teacher whom everyone hoped for under the Taiping Order; ", Daodezong, with the support of the empress, began to gather the power of a country to compile "Tao Zang". Zhang Julu started to mobilize the elite cavalry of several vassal kings to go to the northern border. Among them, King Yanchi and King Jing'an Zhao Xun spared no effort. Zhao Yi, the king of Guangling with the same mother, sent troops to be reserved. He was summoned to Beijing by his elder brother and reprimanded him face-to-face. Liyang began to spread the "Hua Hu Jing", which showed signs of slandering and denouncing Buddha. It is said that only one temple remained in every state and county in the world. Not necessarily immune."
Xu Fengnian smiled and said: "I'm even more curious about the sword spirit of your Northern Mang swordsmen who are close to Huang Qing and went to Wudang. Also, Qi Xianxia took Lu Zu's legacy sword to the south to watch the sea and practice swords. As for the Wu family sword mound Zhao Liuding who had a feud with me, I heard that I took the sword attendant to the ruins of the Wu family's nine swords breaking ten thousand riders, and took away three ancient swords from my ancestors, and my realm has greatly improved."
This time it was Xu Beizhi's turn to say helplessly: "Play the piano to the cow."
Xu Fengnian jumped off the guardrail and said softly: "The old monk is actually dead."
Xu Beizhi asked doubtfully, "Monk Nagarjuna, who presides over the Liangchan Temple?"
Xu Fengnian nodded and stopped talking.
The two of them talked about playing the piano with a chicken and a duck, and it was boring to talk about it, so they continued on their way. The centipede road under their feet was winding and winding, and there were no interesting ruins. Seeing that Xu Fengnian was going up the mountain without hesitation, Xu Beizhi frowned and asked, "Are you really going to Tibing Mountain?"
Xu Fengnian smiled and said: "Of course, I want to see the style of a Beimang girl, but I almost broke my arm in one defeat, and dare to challenge the Lord of Tibing Mountain. If she is beautiful, I will take it back to Beiliang, and when the time comes Don't argue with me."
Of course Xu Beizhi knew that the last sentence was a joke, he didn't think highly of this persimmon, but he didn't dare to have any low opinion. Blindly acting recklessly, Xu Fengnian will not live today even if he has ten lives. It's just that Xu Beizhi never asked Xu Fengnian about his martial arts realm after spending more than ten days together day and night. Walking to the middle of the mountain, Xu Fengnian was blocked by the Tibingshan checkpoint. Only then did Xu Fengnian realize that travelers have to stop here. Not everyone can go up the mountain to watch the battle. As Xu Beizhi expected, Xu Fengnian hadn't been so mad that he wanted to break through the south wall. There were two routes down the mountain, and the two walked a secluded path, deliberately diverting from the many warriors watching the battle from Beimang who were also closed doors. There are places suitable for viewing An elegant gazebo imitating the architectural style of Jiangnan water town, there are no soldiers patrolling outside the pavilion, only a few sturdy servants in luxurious clothes standing, with deep aura and restrained spirit, in Xu Fengnian's view, one of them is ranked second rank, and the rest People are also near the threshold of this dragon gate. In the pavilion, there are two girls, one big and one small, with their backs facing them. Help lie down on the bench.
There are two pairs of embroidered shoes, big and small, on the ground in the pavilion, one pair of green and one pair of red.
The little girl was singing a small country song softly, her voice was clear and crisp.
The teacher in the private school is asking if he knows,
Who is shouting cicada on the tree.
The little moon quietly climbed over the hills,
Who in the pond woke up Starlight.
Who at the head of the village rang the bell
Jingle jingle jingle ding...
Xu Fengnian stood at the same spot and refused to leave, Xu Beizhi saw that the gang of unprovoked followers had already paid attention to this side, eyeing him like a tiger, so he tugged at Xu Fengnian's sleeves.
The next moment, Xu Beizhi knew something was wrong, but immediately afterward, he only felt amazed and absurd.
Xu Fengnian swept into the pavilion, turned his back on Xu Beizhi and the unprepared Tibingshan retinue, and gently put on the pair of green embroidered shoes for the woman in green.
