Chapter 149 The Battle of Purple Mountain (1)(1/2)
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Qiubai and Gu Hengshan. Luo Xiaoyao was surprised when he followed Zhao Yongan's lead on the path outside the courtyard. After seeing each other, Chu Nanfeng led Jiang. Gu and Gu visited Luo Hanshui and let everyone sit in the tea room of the East Courtyard.
"What's going on in this battle?" Chu Nanfeng looked at Jiang Qiubai and asked.
"Our Great Zhou troops once captured several states in the Southern Tang Dynasty. Unfortunately, when rains accumulate for ten days, the Huaihe River flows soared, and the camps flooded, and they were unable to gain a foothold. The land they seized was lost again."
"The emperor knew that our troops were tired of water battles and had no preparations. When autumn came, he went back to Kaifeng to supervise the construction of warships. However, my troops were few and good at water battles, so he sent me to Jingnan and asked the King of Jingnan to send good generals to train naval troops in the next year."
"There is only ten miles away from the Huaihe River in the north. The terrain in the middle is mostly uneven and difficult to camp. It is close to Zijin Mountain in the east and only six miles apart, which is even more difficult to camp. There are also lakes thirty miles apart in the south. Only the army can be stationed in the west, which is a fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack."
"Shouzhou can attack and defend according to this dangerous land. If the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty want to seize the land in Huainan, they will inevitably take Shouzhou as a foothold first. Therefore, after the flood, they gathered their troops and stationed their troops to besiege Shouzhou."
"But Liu Renshan, the garrison of Shouzhou in the Southern Tang Dynasty, also defended this dangerous place, but the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou were unable to surround him for a long time... In nearly nine months, the Great Zhou also lost a lot of soldiers and horses."
Chu Nanfeng nodded, "Why is Jungui planning to attack Nan Tang after the navy is planned to be established?"
"No," Jiang Qiubai pointed, "I came to the island this time to visit Senior Brother Luo, and the second is to discuss matters with Senior Brother Chu and Chief Fang..."
Chu Nanfeng was worried that Jiang Qiubai might have been related to the tomb formation, but when he heard that he wanted to discuss matters with him and Fang Yuan, he was confused for a moment, "Oh? Why is it..."
"Shouzhou was trapped around us for a long time, and the soldiers in the city were exhausted. The Southern Tang sent troops to help each other. The reinforcements were Zhang Yongde in Xia Cai, and they blocked them by giant iron chains and giant trees crossing the Huai River."
"The military ships in the Southern Tang Dynasty could not move forward, so they turned to Zijin Mountain. Two months ago, their vanguard troops set up camps in the north of Zijin Mountain and built a corridor to transport military rations and soldiers to Shouzhou City."
"The camp is blocked and the corridor is built in the mountains and forests. If you want to break it, you must go with agile soldiers. The corridor is the most important. The Southern Tang Dynasty was to guard the envoys and soldiers in the army."
"At that time, Li Chongjin ordered the military peddlers to lead troops to attack. Although they broke through two of their vanguard camps and destroyed a passage, they also broke through five military peddlers, one of which had a great spiritual enlightenment..."
Hearing this, Chu Nanfeng understood what Jiang Qiubai was talking about with Fang Yuan, and said, "Junior Brother Jiang means to ask the elders from other courtyards to go to the army to help?"
Jiang Qiubai nodded, "The King of Qi from the Southern Tang Dynasty sent troops from Haozhou to Zijin Mountain. After hearing the news, the emperor ordered Zhao Kuangyin to lead the Shenhu Camp and the guards to Shouzhou to help Li Chongjin. Zhao Kuangyin asked the elders to go with him..."
"There was no master around Li Chongjin that day. I was afraid that he would make mistakes, so I took the initiative to let Mr. Fu take care of him. But if I say that I would send all the rest... Junior brother, I dare not take the initiative, so I came to ask my senior brother and Chief Fang for his advice."
Since Luo Hanshui was injured, many affairs of Tongbao Pavilion were managed by Fang Yuan, but the arrangements for the elders in Kaifeng's other courtyards were mainly Chu Nanfeng.
On that day, Chu Nanfeng was afraid of the wisdom and suffering and sneaked into the palace. He used the "Fatefulness" to read Guo Rong's memory and ordered the elders to enter the palace to protect him. Later, Wu Wangbo, who went to ask Master Wenyi, brought back the news. As Ma Xilan cut off, Guo Rong, who had the dragon vein and energy protection, had his soul and consciousness that could not be read by the wisdom and suffering, so the elders who entered the palace also retreated to the other courtyard.
Chu Nanfeng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "Although the elders persuaded and helped Jungui for Hanshui, after Hanshui was injured, the elders were all thinking of finding a murderer to avenge Hanshui."
"If they can help the army, they can be convinced in a short period of time. If it is for a long time, even if I agree, they may not be willing. I will write a letter to the elders. My junior brother can make an appointment with them for a date of help, and the appointment will come... and let them go back to the other courtyard."
Jiang Qiubai was happy, "Then I will be the senior brother Chu."
Chu Nanfeng smiled, "I have something to do to make you think..."
"Senior brother, please give me instructions."
Chu Nanfeng said that he would go to Qingcheng Mountain. Jiang Qiubai was very happy when he heard that he could cure Luo Hanshui. "Senior brother wants me to hand over the elixir to Qingqing and let her try to refine it?"
"You also need junior brother, please help Qingqing provide the refined medicinal materials... According to what the alchemy master said, there are some medicinal materials in the imperial palace."
"Senior brother, please rest assured. If the emperor knew about this, it would be unknown if he handed over all the medicinal materials in the Danei Shang Pharmacy to Qingqing. Since the death of Master Miao Gu, Qingqing has been responsible for the practice of making marching pills and Jinchuang Medicine.
She had not returned to the Medicine King Valley to practice the medicines she needed here, and she bought all the medicinal materials merchants in Kaifeng. I heard that there are many rare medicinal materials in this medicine shop of the merchants in Xu. "
"It's so good." Chu Nanfeng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "I heard that this pill is extremely difficult to refine, and the medicinal materials are very depleted, so I must reserve them. But if you need to go to the mountains to collect medicine, you go with Qingqing in front of you..."
Luo Xiaoyao thought, "Disciple is willing to go to Kaifeng to help Qingqing Pharmaceuticals, I hope the master will agree."
Chu Nanfeng looked at Luo Xiaoyao for a moment and said, "Put your hand to me..."
Luo Xiaoyao was a little stunned and stretched out his hand. Chu Nanfeng raised his hand and grabbed the meridian door. With a thought, the energy slowly penetrated into Luo Xiaoyao's meridians.
But in Luo Xiaoyao's twelve serious meridians and eight extraordinary meridians, the qi flows like the water of a river, and it circulates endlessly. I know that below him is truly about to be able to complete the great success of the elixir. Chu Nanfeng pulled his hand and said, "Your qi movement and stillness are closed, but it's not enough. It's not in vain. Master Wu has been bothering to help him in the past six months..."
"Amitabha, good, good." Ming Wuheshi said: "The little layman has the power to make a thousand miles a day, which has benefited a lot from the little monk."
It is true that Ming Wu said this. Luo Xiaoyao's qi can be endless, and the more it becomes stronger and stronger. The lasting momentum is unexpected by Ming. The two of them practiced together, forcing Ming Wu's essence and blood to exert their power to the extreme, thus expanding the meridians and becoming more abundant.
Chu Nanfeng nodded slightly and smiled, looked at Luo Xiaoyao and said, "You must be filial to refine medicine for your father to treat injuries, go to Kaifeng to help Qingqing, and be a teacher should support you...but you must be a teacher."
"Master, please give me instructions, and my disciples must follow the order."
"The whereabouts of Zhiku and his fellow disciples are unpredictable. Although they don't know where they are, they think they will go to Kaifeng. If you meet them, do not act irresistibly and do not take the initiative to seek revenge... Can you agree?"
Chu Nanfeng had no reason to stop Luo Xiaoyao from doing his filial piety. He knew that not let Luo Xiaoyao go, but he would make him suspicious again, so he had to agree. But he was afraid that Luo Xiaoyao and Zhiku would meet, so he would express his conscience.
Luo Xiaoyao was stunned, but did not respond to the thought. Chu Nanfeng sighed in his heart when he saw this, "But he thought he was the power of his master. He went to Qinglong Mountain and other places to check their whereabouts. He must also find out that Master Mingwu, or you, the martial arts master and others are walking with him. Do you think that Master is greedy for life and fear of death... or are you too cautious?"
"Disciple doesn't dare..."
"When Jungui sent troops to fight against the Northern Han Dynasty, his teacher met Zhiguang. Although he suffered a loss for his teacher, he was also injured by him. If it weren't for your uncle Jiang who came to help, I'm afraid there would be no such figure as a teacher in the world..."
"Ah?!" Luo Xiaoyao was shocked. When he returned to Kaifeng from Gaoping, Chu Nanfeng had already healed and left the pass. Luo Xiaoyao naturally did not know that Chu Nanfeng was hurt by Zhiguang.
Chu Nanfeng was worried that Luo Xiaoyao would ask about Zhiguang's origin and would seek revenge, but he did not dare to tell Luo Xiaoyao about the injury. In order to remind Luo Xiaoyao to act carefully, he would tell the matter out.
"You are definitely not an opponent of any of them, but if you lose yourself first, how can you start to take revenge? There are also the sayings of death without regrets, and there are also the sayings of death without glory... Think carefully about the worries of being a teacher."
Luo Xiaoyao's heart was shaking, "Master told his disciples to keep it in mind."
Luo Xiaoyao was passionate in his youth. If he met a group of people who were wise and suffering, he would have to fight to death to avenge his father. But after hearing Chu Nanfeng's heavy words, his mind suddenly became clear. But if he knew that he would be able to show off his eyes for a while, he would really die with his eyes closed, which would put away the courage of every man.
"I'm asking you something... What tricks did you use when you met Zhiguang that day?"
Luo Xiaoyao was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "The disciples used a total of three 'Mianqing Sword Techniques', one 'Star Sword Techniques', and another 'Master Mu's sword technique, the 'Jade Pan Thousand Hair'..."
Chu Nanfeng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "If you have to force yourself, you must fight, remember... You cannot use the Wuji technique no matter what."
Luo Xiaoyao was extremely intelligent. He heard this and thoughts, "Did the Master use the Wuji Kung Fu that day... hurt Zhiguang?"
"No," Chu Nanfeng nodded, "There are extraordinary people in this world who have many 'Five Tai Heart Sutra'. If you fight with them, you can use the three rituals of Taichu, Taishi, and Taisu... or they may be afraid of this."
"Is it because of Taoism?" Luo Xiaoyao remembered the words of Master Tan when he fought with Zhiguang.
"good."
Luo Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment and looked at Mu Daocheng, "Has Master Master ever fought with Zhiguang?"
Mu Daocheng smiled slightly, "Why was Zhiguang so surprised when he saw you using the 'Jade Plate Thousand Hair'?"
"I thought he was hurting his disciples that day. When he saw that his disciple used a 'Jade Pan Thousand Hair', he wanted to kidnap his disciples."
Mu Daocheng looked at Chu Nanfeng, but as Chu Nanfeng expected when he was in Mingyue Villa, Zhiku and others thought that Mu Daocheng was serving the Khitan court and did not want to provoke Mu Daocheng, a powerful enemy, and caused trouble to cause trouble. However, Luo Xiaoyao, who would use the "Yueshuang Sword Technique", had the intention of showing mercy to Luo Xiaoyao, who would use the "Yueshuang Sword Technique".
Chu Nanfeng did not ask about Luo Xiaoyao's fight that day. Now he heard this and looked at each other with Mu Daocheng, and his heart was filled with secret gratitude.
"Master, I fought with Zhiguang in Liaodong that day... This stinky monk was very treacherous, causing my elixir to enter the catastrophe, which caused almost all my physical energy to be lost. If it weren't for your master who came to help me break the catastrophe power, hehe, Master, I'm afraid I'm still in seclusion and restoration of my cultivation..."
Luo Xiaoyao's heart was even more shocked. When he left Mowang Island privately, he guessed with Xiao Muyun that Mu Daocheng had entered the disaster for the alchemy god, but he did not expect it to be so serious. Now he understood Chu Nanfeng's concern about his encounter with the wise and suffering crowd.
"Master, I will help your master, but they didn't know that... If you hadn't encountered the captive of King Jingnan that day, you would have stopped because you were unwilling to make a grudge with Master... And you used several martial arts at that time, they would have doubted your origin, which would have been a problem."
Mu Daocheng is not afraid of things, so he is unwilling to let Zhiku know that he is involved in the troubles of Buddha. Of course, he wants to prevent Zhiku from being caught at a critical moment.
"There are extraordinary masters in the world who have hidden worlds. If you meet someone with destiny, you will be given a move and a half-stage. Senior Mu, you have no idea of a door-to-door, and your heroic reputation is far-reaching. I think Zhiku will not be suspicious. Xiaoyao can use a half-stage Yueshuang Sword Technique... Besides, Mu Yun is by Xiaoyao's side, it should be able to relieve their suspicion."
Mu Daocheng nodded, "What the big brother said is reasonable. The children of martial arts figures walk around the world, study martial arts and pass on each other's moves and half of each other..."
"Zhi Guang should be very afraid of Daoren Tan... If you are the one who is responsible for them, remember, but use the 'Pinglong Registration' technique to stabilize the fluctuations of the qi."
Chu Nanfeng was also worried that if Luo Xiaoyao was caught in the pulse, he would be forced out of the Taoist spirit, and everything would be gone by then.
"This time I met Dao Ren Tan, I also thanked him for teaching you the "Pinglong Registration" hidden Qi Gong technique..." Chu Nanfeng paused and looked at Luo Xiaoyao and said, "Li Guanshu, a pig-killing scholar you met that day... Do you know what it has to do with Dao Ren Tan? He is the junior brother of Dao Ren Tan."
"Junior brother?" Luo Xiaoyao was very surprised, but judging by his eyes, Dao Tan was about 80 years old, while Li Guanshu was only in his forties. No matter how he thought about it, he would never think that the two were brothers. However, Luo Xiaoyao heard from Lin Wan's true words that Li Guanshu fought alone with his own wisdom, while Zhiguang and the other two thought about Dao Tan's cultivation.
"You have ever fought with Mr. Li, do you know?"
Luo Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment, "I heard from Junior Sister Wanzhen's words that she passed by the town to Kaifeng that day, and told the story of Mr. Li's interruption from the shopkeeper of the town inn, and inferred that the fight was for the master." Luo Xiaoyao paused and looked at Mu Daocheng, "Later, the disciple asked the master about this matter, and then he realized that the master and Mr. Li were fighting because... Mr. Shen helped his disciples that day."
"I thought Mr. Li's technique was for 'Pinglong recognition', so Master Tan asked, but he didn't expect to ask the right person."
Chu Nanfeng smiled, "Twenty-seven years ago, Master Tan passed by that small town and met Li Guanshu. He used the 'Pinglong-Recognition' technique of looking at the qi, and saw that his bones were not only clear, but also the five elements of the innate body were different from ordinary people, so he wanted to accept him as his disciple..."
"What?! The eldest brother said that he had only entered martial arts at about twenty years old?" Mu Daochengzi also learned from Chu Nanfeng's age. He was shocked when he heard this, and Luo Xiaoyao was even more stunned.
Jiang Qiubai and Gu Hengshan also knew that Li Guanshu was a master who saved Luo Hanshui, and he was shocked for a moment.
Chu Nanfeng nodded, "Mr. Li is not only a genius, but also has a rare temperament in the world. When he heard that Master Tan wanted to accept him as his disciple, he was unwilling to do so. Master Tan was so mean to force him... In the form of teaching skills on behalf of his master, he recognized him as his junior brother, so that Mr. Li agreed to learn martial arts."
Luo Xiaoyao, Mu Daocheng, Jiang, Gu and the other four looked at each other, feeling unbelievable for a moment. Ming Wu, who had always had a calm expression, also recited the Buddha's name and said twice, "Good".
"What is even more incredible is that the sword technique used by Mr. Li to fight me was created by him... This is Mr. Li, who is the first person in the world."
Chu Nanfeng paused, looked at the shocked expression of everyone and sighed: "It's a pity that Xiaoyao and Taoist Tan's fate are only a 'Pinglong Recognition' hidden Qi Gong technique. If you can practice the full text of the 'Pinglong Recognition' chapter on the qi... Alas, everyone really has their own fate."
Mu Daocheng, who came to his senses, sighed in his heart. He knew that Chu Nanfeng was also one of the few martial arts geniuses in the world, and had a high sense of talent. If he had not been worried about Luo Xiaoyao's safety, he would never sigh like this, and his words showed that he was greedy for other people's martial arts.
"New Year's Day is in a few days. Junior Brother Jiang can take this pill recipe to Qingqing first..." Chu Nanfeng took out a brocade bag from his arms and handed it to Jiang Qiubai, and turned to Luo Xiaoyao, "I will wait until you spend New Year's Day with your father, and then you and your two junior sisters will go north to Kaifeng."
Luo Xiaoyao thought that Jiang Qiubai had brought Chang Qingqing first, and he felt great peace in his heart. Now New Year's Day is coming, and when Luo Hanshui celebrates the New Year, he heard this and said, "Disciple obeys the order."
………
In the fourth year of Xiande, on the sixth day of the first lunar month, at the moment of the morning, Luo Xiaoyao, Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen came to the princess's mansion and reported the origin to the servant at the door. After the servant returned the gift, he immediately turned around and reported to the mansion.
After a while, Chang Qingqing, who was happy, came out, followed by a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing fur, skin like cream, jade cheeks, and beautiful and beautiful.
"I have met Brother Xiaoyao... Sister Wanzhen... Sister Muyun." After Xiao Muyun's poison broke away, he stayed in Kaifeng when he went north with Mu Daocheng, and Chang Qingqing had also seen him.
Lin Wanzhen looked at Chang Qingxiang, who was as tall as hers and stood tall, and smiled and said, "I haven't seen her for more than a year, Princess Qingqing should be more and more charming."
"Sister Wanzhen loves to make fun of Qingqing." Chang Qingqing, who was beautiful and beautiful, looked bright but looked shy when he heard this, turned to Luo Xiaoyao and the other two to introduce the identity of the girl who accompanied her.
