The Snowy Path of the Heroic Blade Chapter 204: South and North divide the world

The rivers and lakes of Beiliang have never been so lively. With the help of Xuanyuan Qingfeng, there were already many martial arts heroes heading northward to the border with enthusiasm. At this time, it was announced that Wudang Mountain was going to hold a new one. The news of the Buddhism and Taoism debate gave many people from the rivers and lakes who didn’t want to get involved in the battle between Liang and Mang. As for annoying your Liyang court, right? Everyone knows that the scenery of the eighty-one peak facing the big top is extremely spectacular, not to mention that Lu Zu and the immortal Hong Xixiang who rides a crane down the south of the Yangtze River are practicing here, and it is good to get immortal. For a time, there were as many people from other villages as the crucian carp who crossed the river. The ichthyosaur gang, as a snake in the northern Liang, under the personal control of the leader Liu Nirong, helped the people not only take the initiative to lead the way for the friends of the rivers and lakes, but also bear all the food, clothing, shelter and transportation. If someone thinks that walking with others is not profitable enough, they can get a heavy ride and horse fee as long as they use the guide to assign a name to each county of the Yulong Gang. As for whether they really go to Wudang Mountain, it is for Going to the brothel to buy drunk is still halfway to big fish and meat. The wealthy ichthyosaur gang will not really care about it. This invisibly has also improved the status of the ichthyosaur gang in the Central Plains. There are not many top masters in the ichthyosaur gang. Fake, it can't stop people from being rich and enemies. If Hunjianghu wants to be comfortable, is it just relying on fists and pockets? Otherwise, you think you are the King of Beiliang in Yushu. I heard that his old man's face was just a face before martial arts, so no less than ten female heroes who sought revenge on Qingliang Mountain in their early years fell in love at first sight, and since then they are willing to stay in the palace. The Wutong courtyard was hidden by the golden house... The martial arts master who came over with just one hand, the peach-flower sword **** Deng Tai A Tai Shenlong can't see the end, after all, the big official Cao Changqing is not young, and Tuoba Bodhisattva is even more of a person. The unlovable Beimang savage by nature, and Xu Fengnian, who is prosperous and feats constantly, has become the most relish talk of the people of Liyangjianghu after a meal. Many new martial arts heroes and green forest heroes who are new to Beiliang are eye-openers. The small brothel is an oiran and they all say that they have warmed the bed for Xu Fengnian, and any fortune teller on the road in Liangzhou dare to say that he had tested the words for our lord. After the divination, the restaurant and teahouse also shouted that the king of Beiliang was full of praise for his own signature goods, especially those shops that sold rouge gouache, and even vowed that Xu Fengnian had bought something for his confidant from them, the most letting go. The young man and the young man feel sad and indignant because this is obviously the shop’s deceitful nonsense, but the accompanying female heroes and fairies are like ghosts, buying a lot of expensive bottles and cans in those shops. , The key lies in the real takers who spend money like water, they are the great masters who protect the flowers.

In the hustle and bustle of the rivers and lakes of Beiliang, just when the custom of rolling willows in Beiliang was at its peak, the children of the wealthy families in Beiliang would ride horses and shoot in the countryside or martial arts grounds, hang any object on the branches, and shoot them with their bows. Falling is called rolling willow. When those people from other cities and lakes saw the appearance of many Beiliang women who are also familiar with bow horses, they would inevitably be a little bit shocked. Before, they only heard that the people of Beiliang were sturdy, but now they are sure that what they said is true. And most of these northern Liang liu men and women tied white hemp silk on their arms. When asked, they found out that the people of Beiliang would tie hemp to pay homage to their deceased relatives within one month after taking off their mourning clothes. In mid-summer, the use of multicolored silk threads on the arms in order to ward off ghosts and diseases is somewhat similar. This is also frightening at the same time. Could it be that Beiliangguo really killed so many people in Hutoucheng and Youzhou Hulukou at the border gate of Liangzhou? Why did I only hear in my hometown of Central Plains that the Beiliang Frontier Army faced the pressure of the millions of Beimang troops, either retreating without a fight, or collapsed at once? However, I heard that Liang Liao, who was in charge of Gu Jiantang of Dazhu State, and his son-in-law Yuan Tingshan’s Jibei line of defense, both succeeded in succession. After entering Beiliang, I saw with my own eyes that, except for the children of Beiliang who rode and shoot the willows, it was embarrassing. Those patrol rides drawn from the garrison in Beiliang were awe-inspiring. These are said to be far less powerful. If the cavalry inside the border iron cavalry really carried out a fight with the so-called elite soldiers and horses in everyone's hometown, wouldn't it be like the top masters of the first-grade realm crushing the second-grade young master?

When most people from other places began to climb mountains or approached Wudang, they heard two more legendary new news. The Northern Liang King Xu Fengnian led Youzhou Wanqi to fight outside Hulukou last time. He was singled out outside Hutou City, killing the Great King Dong Zhuo of Beimang South Court to retreat and then retreat. Chu Lushan, the infamous capital of Beiliang, led eight thousand cavalry troops from Huaiyangguan to the northeastern border of Liuzhou, breaking 30,000 Dong's private army. Everyone hates the big wicked person, but if the wicked person is his own family, it is actually quite reassuring to think about it. Chu Lushan, a big demon who stopped crying, was most suitable to be placed in the border of Beiliang. It would not harm the Central Plains, but also make Beimang savage upset. From this point of view, Xu Fengnian became the King of the Northern Liang Dynasty, and other achievements are not to be mentioned. Just being able to subdue Chu Fatty and let him stay outside Liangzhou Pass is already a great merit.

For this battle between Buddhism and Taoism that was supposed to be held at the Dragon and Tiger Mountain Slaying Platform two years ago, after seeing Chu Lushan and the heavy casualties of the iron cavalry, Xu Fengnian rushed to this Liang from Huaiyangguan. At the junction of You, of course he was not to come to Wudang Mountain to show off, but the espionage of Fushuifang said that two groups of people were coming here to join in the fun. One was Broken Spear Deng Mao and Yeludong Bed who followed Luoyang into Liyang. They seemed to be entering You After entering the state, he no longer deliberately hides his whereabouts. The other side is even more weird. They are the only couples in the world. They are more important to Xu Fengnian than those of Hu Yan Daguan, because the man is a white-clothed monk Li Danxin, who is now the nominal host of the two Zen monasteries that have been sealed off the mountain gate. The abbot was the father of a little girl who had long been determined to be a heroine.

The arrival of the monks in white clothes made the debate on Buddhism and Taoism at Xiaolianhua Peak to a large extent justified. Otherwise, since the head of Wudang, Li Yufu, was not on the mountain, the Taoist middleman who was arguing with Buddhism was even a lot of Northern Liang. The Taoist priest who has never heard of the name is a disciple of Song Zhiming. It is rumored that this talent has just built and practiced in Xiaozhu Peak, Wudang Eighty-one Peak, not all peaks and peaks have Taoist Taoism, and most of the peaks are raised in deep boudoirs. No one knows.” Wudang Mountain now has no more than 12 peaks. Among them, the Lotus Peak is the most famous. The Yuzhu Peak, which is known as the jade pillar of the world’s internal strength, is also well-known. It can be seen that the Kaifeng named Han Gui Taoist priests can be regarded as enough to be on their own. I think there should be some Taoism. In addition, Qingshanguan was funded and built from Qingliang Mountain to later gifted by the King of Beiliang, and the status of Xiaozhufeng has naturally risen. Wudang Mountain is a dragon and tiger. The mountains are separated from the north and the south, one of the Taoist ancestors who have fought the law for hundreds of years. Those gods of the highest generation, Wang Chonglou, died the earliest. Hong Xixiang, who was cultivated as Tongxuan, had to reincarnate by himself for some reason. The sword mad King Xiaoping blocked the way. Wang Xianzhi , The heroic battle died on the banks of the Guangling River, and Song Zhiming, who had survived more than two Jiazi, also died, and now only Chen You, who is the master of discipline, and Yu Xingrui, who laughed at himself, "cannot cultivate immortality, have to cultivate strength", The latter was also the person who brought Li Yufu from the East China Sea to Wudang with the wise eyes and beads. There were probably more than 20 Wudang Taoists from the generations of Li Yufu and Han Gui. The next four generations of Qingning Lingzhen Taoists will be more. In particular, the spiritual generation and the zhenzi generation are different from the rivers of the Longhu Mountain. The Wudang Mountain, which has been silent for a hundred years, has become more and more prosperous. There are now more than 600 Taoist priests in the zhenzi generation. This is the premise that Wudang Mountain is not willing to overtake disciples. Down.

Go up the mountain to burn incense. Usually, whether it is the relatively rich people of Lingzhou or the pilgrims of Jihe two states, they always climb the Southern Shinto Road, the most beautiful scenery and the best way. Xu Fengnian chose the Northern Shinto Road to go up the mountain, but he never thought he was still I underestimated the great appeal of the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. Except for the seven or eight hundred people from the rivers and lakes, most of the wealthy people in the Beiliang three prefectures arrived by car and horseback. Even Huainan Road and Jiangnan Road have attracted many people. , Burning incense and watching the battle are both right. The mountain roads in Wudang North Shinto are not wide. What's more unfortunate is that there has been a light rain from early in the morning today. The rain will not block the road, but the muddy road will make people suffer. In addition, the people on the road continue to suffer. Stepping on the rugged mountain road for twenty miles is more tiring than walking on the official post road of fifty miles.

Xu Fengnian went to Wudang Mountain this time and did not follow him. In order to hurry, he did not even ride a horse. Instead, he chose a secluded path like a bird flying all the way, so he appeared to be still in the dust. He was wearing a green shirt and hung around his waist. Two knives, one is a cross-river **** from Jiang Fuding's hand, and an ordinary standard cold knife. At midday, Xu Fengnian stopped for a while in a simple restaurant on the entrance of Beishen Road. The name of the restaurant is also interesting. It is called "Guocundian", which is probably to remind pilgrims from afar that there will be no such restaurant after passing this village. Bar. The restaurant has long been overcrowded, and it is full of tourists who hope to rush to the main peak of Wudang as soon as possible in the morning. Xu Fengnian can only sit on a small bamboo bench under the eaves with more than a dozen people to hide from the rain. Waiting in line, Xu Fengnian ordered a pot of tea. The tea was under the banner of Wudang "Dao Tea". A palm-sized pot of tea dared to open his mouth, asking for twenty-five cents! Xu Fengnian took the jug in one hand and the cup in the other, and drank it within a few sips, and then added water to the restaurant mates, and had to pay another five cents. Obviously not only Xu Fengnian felt that the slaughter was not lightly slaughtered, but the pilgrims around him also complained a lot. Several young and temperamental people even had a bad feeling towards Wudang, saying that the leaf knows autumn, the mountain is like this, and the Wudang Taoist priests on the mountain want to come like this. Full of stinky copper. Listening to their accents, they are all from the outside. Some local pilgrims in Beiliang who often go to the mountains to burn incense frowned. An old man smiled and persuaded a few words. When it comes to burning incense on the mountain, even the incense and incense candles are gifts from Wudang. Yes, I don’t receive a penny from the pilgrim. Of course, how much money I am willing to give later, whether it is a few pennies or a few taels, is nothing more than one's ability. The old man also said that he had come here to burn incense three or four times a year since he was young, and he really didn't meet a Wudang Taoist who took the initiative to ask him to pay.

When the old man opened his mouth, many outsiders who were curious about Wudang Mountain became interested. Some of them asked whether the old man had seen Wudang master Li Yufu. The old man laughed and said: "I have seen it, how come I have not seen it, not only Master Li, from the old master Wang who pointed the river to the Master Hong who rides a crane down the south of the Yangtze River, I have seen all of them, especially Master Hong, who gave me his visa back then. This is not my praise. Actually, I have seen more of these pilgrims. If you go up the mountain today, you may also encounter Chen Zhenren or Yu Zhenren to resolve the visa for you. It is a pity that I heard that the head of Li teaches going down the mountain. I went."

"Then it is true that you King of Northern Liang used to practice martial arts in Wudang Mountain back then?"

"Of course, I have personally asked two real people of the Qing Dynasty who have been familiar with them for many years. They are all true. We all said that our princes have been inextricably linked with Master Hong a long time ago. , The relationship is really good."

A foreign lady asked embarrassingly: "Old man, are you guys of Beiliang really as suave as the outside world rumored?"

"How can this be fake?! The sons of the general and the princess have nothing to say! Haha, this little girl, don't be ashamed. We want to marry the prince in Beiliang. , There is so much."

Speaking of this, the old man pointed his finger at Xu Fengnian who was sitting not far away drinking tea, and joked with the young lady: "Look, our prince will be as handsome as this young man."

Xu Fengnian turned around and smiled helplessly.

The young woman flushed.

Xu Fengnian took a sip of tea and gently looked into the distance. Just like Xiaozhufeng Han Gui's Taoist Temple, Qingshan Temple, and Qingshan Temple, where a person is, his mood will be different. Being on the battlefield, there are so many bones that you can't tolerate your sadness. And if you are in the mountains, you will inevitably be able to give birth to a bit of wild mood. Having personally experienced the offensive and defensive battle of Hutou City, and then to meet Chu Lushan and the three thousand cavalry who returned from the border of Liuzhou, as well as the five thousand corpses, Xu Fengnian has been far away from the Huaiyang Pass of Hutou City, completely away from the sound of war drums and horseshoes. , But there always seems to be a fight in the ear. The more he is in a place of peace and tranquility, the more difficult it is for Xu Fengnian to let go. There is a picture in his mind, the horse head of Beiliang is facing north! The spearhead is facing north! The blade is facing north! Three hundred thousand frontier soldiers, for the barren land behind them, did not hesitate to stop Beimang Ironshoe with death.

At the time of parting, Liu Jinu said that there is no need to be guilty. There are more than 60,000 people in Hutou City, not fighting for you, Xu Fengnian, but dying for Beiliang. It’s just that you, Xu Fengnian, deserve our peace of mind to entrust our lives, let us know that we died well!

But can Xu Fengnian really not be guilty?

It can't be done.

Everyone under the eaves saw two men walking in the distance, one of a stocky figure and a short figure. Because they were not eye-catching, they just glanced past them, and didn't care about them. Xu Fengnian got up slowly, called his buddy to return the teapot and cup, and then stood on the edge of the steps, just standing on the boundary line with rain and no rain above his head. After he made this seemingly unintentional move, the two visitors from afar also slowed down, but for the pilgrims waiting to eat under the eaves of the restaurant, this kind of incomprehensible pinnacle of the mystery The confrontation is imperceptible.

Behind Xu Fengnian, the tea-drinking, chatting, and rejuvenation, without knowing that a stormy wave is coming, like a tide hitting the city.

Although the two of them slowed down, they still walked towards the restaurant. They seemed to walk like ordinary people. In fact, one of them didn't touch the ground at all and didn't touch the muddy soil. The younger one was like a heavy object. When the foot was stepped on, even the entire upper was submerged in the yellow mud.

Seeing that they had no intention of stopping, Xu Fengnian squinted his eyes, pressed his right hand on the handle of the river crossing pawn, and gestured to raise his foot out of the steps.

The middle-aged man stopped first. The young man beside him wanted to move on, but was suddenly stopped by his companion.

The young man looked angrily, staring at that guy, and whispered in a slightly jerky Zhongyuan Mandarin: "When I have fought with Old Monster Wang and Tuoba Bodhisattva, it's amazing?"

Then the young man with a sullen expression sighed, "Yes, it's pretty amazing."

He opened his throat and shouted: "Hey! You know that we are not here to fight, do you have a hospitality like you?"

Xu Fengnian looked at this young man, not to mention the tall man in the north, but also the short young man among the men south of the Guangling River from Yang. His true identity is Yelvdong Bed, the upright and upright mang of the North Mang. Simply put, if the puppet prince dies someday, then this fellow, like Murong Longshui, is the most promising member of the royal family to become the next emperor of Beimang. Because of Jia Jiajia, Xu Fengnian played a cat-and-mouse game with Murong Longshui and the cobweb leader old moth. She was quite an interesting girl. For some reason, Yelu Dongchuang swaggered and followed Luoyang to the Lushan Mountain. As for the Broken Spear Deng Mao, whose ranking was similar to that of Hong Jingyan, he should have been the personal follower of the nephew of Emperor Beimang. To be precise, this is Xu Fengnian’s second meeting with Yelu Dongbei. It was when Gao Shulu woke up four hundred years after "Fengshan". Xu Fengnian wandered out of her body and met with heaven and man. He was running errands next to Luoyang at that time. Dongchuang and Xu Fengnian barely had a fate.

Xu Fengnian smiled, retracted his footsteps, and sat back on the small stool. Deng Mao and Yeludong were able to step up the steps and come under the eaves. It is not that Deng Mao is not capable of this, but since he has no desire to fight hard, Deng Mao Mao isn't the kind of person who has nothing to look for. As for Yeludong Bed, confronting Xu Fengnian today, who wants to make him unable to get close to the restaurant, then he, a child of the Beimang royal family, really doesn't have this ability. Yeludong's shoe sole rubbed the corner of the steps severely, scraping off a thick layer of mud, and then sat down beside Xu Fengnian, but Deng Mao didn't sit down because the restaurant could only vacate a stool.

Yeludung asked in a low voice: "Did you really fight Tuoba Bodhisattva? What happened? I want to hear the truth."

Xu Fengnian said to this familiar guy: "How is Xu Ying?"

Yelüdong bed was stunned, "Xu Ying? Who?"

Xu Fengnian finally had a little smile, and said softly: "It's the woman around Luoyang who likes to wear red robes."

Yelütung said in bed, "She, just like that. She used to be like people and ghosts, but then she lost her heart, and now she looks almost like an ordinary woman, but she still likes it when she is okay. Since I wandered around there, the big red robe turned and turned, and it could turn half an hour in one breath. Anyway, I was dazzled and my heart was tired."

Xu Fengnian did not speak.

Yelüdong bed was startled and said: "Why, you have such a good bite?!"

Xu Fengnian didn't turn his head to look at this unobstructed young man, but asked indifferently: "Aren't you afraid of dying here?"

Yeludung rolled his eyes in bed.

The next moment, Yeludong didn't dare to breathe in the atmosphere.

Everyone under the eaves did not realize that at that moment, the small stool of the handsome boy with double knives shook, and the plain-looking middle-aged man had left the eaves and got caught in the rain for a while and then returned to stand under the eaves. , It's just strange how the man with his back to the restaurant was facing them without knowing it.

Xu Feng said in a young voice: "There is no next time."

Yeludung smiled bitterly: "I only heard that you were funny before, not like a person who can't make a joke. It seems that if this person becomes a master, the shelf will be bigger."

Xu Fengnian shook his head and said: "If you change your identity one day, you will know the reason."

Yelüdong bed doesn’t know if he really understands it or if he understands it in a confused way, "I understand."

Xu Fengnian beckoned to ask the store guy for a pot of tea and three cups. The shrewd guy glanced at the short man who squatted in the pit and did not shit. In addition to borrowing a small bench from him, Xu Fengnian agreed with a smile, and directly squeezed out a small piece of silver from the purse, which is about sixty cents. Besides, this world has always been silver expensive and copper cheap, and the man grinned. Dude, go on the road! Later, Deng Mao finally had the opportunity to sit down. If this truth spreads to the rivers and lakes, this shop will probably be regarded as the most bullish man in the world. He bargained with Xu Fengnian, the king of Beiliang, and cast his eyes on Yeludong bed and rewarded Deng Mao. A stool! Xu Fengnian poured a cup of tea for the Beimang men on the left and right, and asked, "Is there something to do in Beiliang?"

Yelüdong Bed did not sell Guanzi, "Luoyang asked me to tell you, apart from Cao Changqing and the Emperor Yan Sheng who helped the Emperor Liyang not negotiate, there is a three-year agreement to give up."

Yeludung drank a tasteless tea in bed, and continued: "I want to see you myself, and I want to know if you and I might do something together."

Xu Fengnian was a little lost, looking at the light rain curtain outside the eaves, took a deep breath and calmly said: "Tell me."

Yelüdong bed laughed at himself: "In my family, relatives about my age have died a lot over the years. Of course, most of them have the same surname as me. And that... well, it’s after my aunt’s surname, mostly Woman, just like that fat girl Murong Longshui. So to be honest, I still have a chance, even if it is not big, but it is finally there. The reason why I ran out is to avoid the chess and sword of the comeback. No way, the old man was actually driven to Liyang by my grandfather. He killed a carbine this time. Of course, it’s not as simple as not showing me a good face. The old guy compares to my brother. Pay attention to the reason. The nursing home is looking for a dog, but not a wolf. I know that the current situation of Liang Mang's endless confrontation is the idea of ​​two people, the old guy and Fatty Dong, not all Everyone thinks so."

Xu Fengnian smiled rather than smiled, "Will you show some sincerity?"

Yeludung hit the bed haha, his voice was lighter, and slowly said: "The worst I know is that of the eight seasons and the twelve generals, six are resolutely opposed, and Helian Wuwei The other is that the battle between the cool and the mangler can be fought or not. It’s hard to say that they are the grassroots. Anyway, they just follow the trend. Of course, my parents died very early, but my grandfather is still alive. At any rate, his old man is worthy of a general and a seasoning, right?"

Xu Fengnian is familiar with the inside story of the Royal Court of Beimang, and shook his head: "It's more than that."

Yeludung turned his head and stared at the young feudal lord's profile, and asked, "Is this deal done?"

Xu Fengnian asked back: "In addition to asking me Beiliang to get rid of Dong Zhuo and Taipingling's momentum, what else do you need to do?"

Yelüdong Bed said with a silly smile: "First, you have to kill Tuoba Bodhisattva. Second, you must try to keep the main force of Hong Jingyan's Rouran cavalry on the battlefield."

Xu Fengnian sarcastically said: "You really should go to the battlefield to see it, you won't be so light-hearted."

Yelütung said with a smile: "As someone else, I won't mention this at all, but you can. That's why I will sit here today, drinking a pot of...good tea for twenty cents. "

Xu Fengnian asked: "Do you want to be emperor that way?"

Yelü Dongbed asked, "You don't want to?"

Xu Fengnian laughed it off.

Yeludung bed quietly waited for the following.

In the end, Xu Fengnian just said: "I can only promise you to take a step and see."

Yeludung patted his thigh in bed, "That's enough!"

Yelud put the tea cup at her feet on the bed and said softly when she bent down and got up: "If you and I can get to that point, I can promise you one thing, half of the Southern Dynasties, just be me. Dong Bed has returned your tea money. When both Liang and Mang have troubles, and if you still have your heart to go south to the Central Plains in the future, I can even lend you the entire east line for three years to help you suppress the two Liaos in Liyang. Border army for three years."

Xu Fengnian watched the two go away.

People take the tea to cool.

After Yelu Dongbing and Deng Mao walked more than ten miles away, Yelu Dongbing asked: "Do you think he will agree?"

Deng Mao expressionlessly said: "Why don't you agree~IndoMTL.com~ Except for Hong Jingyan's soft ride, the rest is what Xu Fengnian wants to do and should do. As long as Dong Zhuo and Taipingling are still in charge together In the government, Liang Mang is a dead end, and Xu Fengnian’s Beiliang chances of winning are too small."

Yeludung crossed the back of his head on the bed, and said with emotion: "Yes, it seems that he can only accompany me to take a gamble, and he can only help me. Instead of dying with me a million army, there is no chance of winning Knock to the end, it’s better to make every effort to make Dong Zhuo and Taipingling stink. At least it will be relatively easy. As long as you force these two guys to fail again and again, you don’t need to go all out, which is equivalent to winning me a chance. When the time comes, It depends on my Yeludong bed ability and temperament."

Deng Mao hesitated for a moment and asked: "If you really get it?"

The north and the south divide the world?

The dwarf grinned silently, revealing the hideous and **** surname Yelu has not had in twenty years.

And under the eaves of that restaurant, Xu Fengnian twitched his mouth.

Xu Fengnian got up and walked down the steps and began to step into the northern Shendao of Wudang Mountain.

What can someone like that become Emperor Beimang?
