Chapter Fifty-Eight: First Encounter with a Celebrity!
After doing the rituals for those who died in vain, Yang Zizi took off his Dharma clothes, put away all the rituals and put them together neatly, the Xuantie Holy Fire Order was placed in the middle, and all the other believers surrounded these rituals and bowed three times very reverently.
Then, they put away all these magic weapons in an orderly manner, obviously having done it many times and were very proficient. After everything was over, Yang Zizi put away the Xuantie Holy Flame Order again, and returned it to Chen Xiang with both hands.
Chen Xiang put away the Xuantie Holy Flame Order, and had already memorized all the Dharma process in his heart. Using this way to overtake the resentment and negative energy of the dead soul can be effectively cleared, which is already great news for Chen Xiang. However, it would be a waste of time to rely on the methods of these disciples to perform rituals, and it would be great if a device could be created that would naturally guide the sacred flame in the Holy Fire Order to incinerate the corpses and negative energy.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiang was carefully figuring out the process and ability of the Ming Sect, and at the same time beckoned everyone to hit the road again and continue to walk north.
"Childe, according to Captain Hu's news, he should have been thrown into the command of the Mongolian army in Xiangyang City, and became a jailer to take care of prisoners." Su Huaiyuan reported from the side. "Since the news came back a month ago, there has been no news of Captain Hu. It is said that when Zhang Hongfan's family occupied Xiangyang City, it was rumored in the rivers and lakes that they had accepted the imperial court's recruitment, announced the death of the Song army, and used this as a banner to call on the heroes of the rivers and lakes to return to Xiangyang City to defend the city. The heroes of the rivers and lakes who had already escaped, under the instigation of Guo Fu and under the leadership of Yeluqi and Guo Poyu, returned to Xiangyang City again to defend the city for Gongzi. But he didn't expect that there were no top masters and military strategy masters like Guo Jing and his wife among the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and Xiangyang City had been war-torn for a long time, so it was difficult to defend it, so it didn't take long for Xiangyang City to fall into the hands of the Mongols again. If I am not mistaken, the Mongol prime minister Boyan is imprisoning them all in prison and preparing to force them to surrender, believing that their surrender will have a good effect on the Mongol offensive, so he has not yet begun to kill them. ”
Chen Xiang nodded and said, "I hope that the Mongols haven't done it yet, and Captain Hu is safe." If he hadn't heard from him for a month, I wouldn't have come north to find them myself. Now we are going to Xiangyang as fast as we can and find a way to rescue them. ”
After everyone listened to Chen Xiang's order, they knew that the purpose of their trip was to save those heroes in Xiangyang City, and their faces were slightly embarrassed. Chen Xiang glanced at it and knew what was in their hearts.
Mingjiao has always been rejected by the so-called righteous way of rivers and lakes, and when Huang Sheng exterminated Mingjiao during the Song Huizong, the hatred between the two sides has never been dissolved. Now that the Mingjiao disciples heard that the Venerable Bright they were going to follow was actually going to save their enemy, they naturally felt embarrassed in their hearts, and now that everyone's common enemy was the Mongols, it seemed reasonable to go to save the heroes of the same trench.
Besides, they have just joined the camp of the Song army, and if there is a dispute of will, I am afraid that there will be a gap.
Although they are Christians, they are also Chinese, and there is no conflict between their loyalty to religion and their tactfulness in life. Especially now that they are so down, they have just joined the command of the little emperor, even earlier than those heroes of the rivers and lakes, and it is the time when they need to make meritorious contributions to win the favor of the little emperor. They can give up their hatred for each other and join the command of the little emperor, and naturally they can temporarily let go of their hatred and save those heroes of the rivers and lakes!
After figuring out this section, Yang Zizi naturally cooperated, and tried his best to send Mingjiao disciples as scouts along the way, asking around about the current form, so that wherever Chen Xiang's small team went, it was like walking on their own home turf, controlling the surrounding news anytime and anywhere, so that they would not become blind and jump into the trap of the Mongols.
When they were about to march to Xiangyang, they had already grasped the information around them very clearly, and even got in touch with some beggar disciples on the periphery and basically understood the current situation.
It turned out that the Mongols put these heroes in a cage and did not kill them, not only to persuade them to surrender, but also to find out their mastery through non-stop competitions, and then teach them to the Mongolian warriors, so that the Mongols' combat effectiveness became stronger and stronger. This ploy made Chen Xiang feel very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, and if he thought about it carefully, wasn't it the ploy of Zhao Min, the Mongolian county lord many years later?
Hehe, what a family, even this plan is exactly the same, what a well-deserved Mongolian.
On the other hand, it is to publicize the capture of these heroes and heroes, especially the leaders Yeluqi and Guo Poyu, who are two important figures, on the rivers and lakes, so that those righteous people in the rivers and lakes come to the rescue, and then surround the point to send reinforcements, preparing to completely bury all the Han heroes under the city of Xiangyang.
Because of Guo Jing and his wife, Xiangyang City has become a holy place of generosity and tragedy in the hearts of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and now it is used by the Mongols and hyped up, just like a slap in the face of all the Han people who think they are chivalrous, so that some Han chivalrous people who think they are good in strength and are more well-informed will be conceited to find them and go to Xiangyang City to die.
They all thought that they were real heroes, as long as they could go deep into Xiangyang City and snatch back Yeluqi and Guo Poyu and others, they would definitely be able to inherit the status of the leader of the rivers and lakes and become another superhero who led the rivers and lakes after Guo Jing!
Therefore, the city of Xiangyang is full of scheming Han Chinese and Mongols, strangled each other to the death near the ruined city wall. In every corner, behind every wall, in every cellar, horrific killings and abuses are probably taking place.
Although the Han knights are pervasive, the Mongols are also loose on the outside and tight on the inside, building Xiangyang City into an absolute death grinder, constantly devouring the flesh and blood of the Han knights, and consuming their fighting spirit and combat power.
After hearing this, Chen Xiang just smiled faintly. Now he has invincible strength, and when facing chivalrous, he can reach the level of infinite crushing, so he doesn't care about the Mongol conspiracy.
When he met with a disciple of the Seven Bags of the Beggar Gang, Chen Xiang made such a suggestion, that is, to gather all the Han heroes who had been entrenched in the vicinity recently, and attack Xiangyang City together to rescue the heroes and heroes who were locked in the cage.
The disciples in the beggar gang, based on the number of bags on their bodies, generally speaking, the people with nine bags on their bodies have the highest status, and the people with only one bag on their bodies have the lowest status, but this disciple of the seven bags of the beggar gang is obviously already the highest-ranking beggar gang disciple near Xiangyang City, and has become a faint leader among the people in the nearby rivers and lakes.
He is not good-looking, about forty years old, with two eyebrows hanging down, and a pair of triangular eyes revealing fine light, showing that he is not a mediocre hand, with long internal strength, and peculiar joints in both hands, obviously the skills of the two hands are very good. His name on the rivers and lakes is called the Iron Gate Killing Star Wu Liang, which means that the palm technique of his hands is as strong as a pair of iron gates, which is heavy and unbearable. Although it is difficult to be regarded as a first-class, he can be regarded as a famous master on the rivers and lakes, especially in the current situation of the Song and Yuan Wars, all the good players from all walks of life were killed and injured, and the water came out, and he was gradually pushed to the front line by a good player like him, who was originally not on the front line.
In addition, he was extremely cautious and paid special attention to his own safety, so he escaped his life in the iron palm of the Mongols several times, and gradually won the recognition of the people in the rivers and lakes.
And Chen Xiang's team has no reputation at all, even Yang Zizi and the others were afraid that others would find out that they were Mingjiao people and hid, so they didn't show their heads, so this Wu Liang didn't know them at all, and this kid who was less than ten years old actually made such a bold suggestion, which could only make him feel funny!
So to the surprise of Su Huaiyuan and the others, the other party's beggar gang seven-bag disciple snorted coldly with complete disdain, and said very unceremoniously: "You are just a little-known kid, why do you command the group?" Who do you think you are? It's just a hairy boy who is not more than ten years old! ”
Su Huaiyuan said angrily: "You! Megalomaniacal guys! Do you know who you're talking to?! As he spoke, he wanted to pull out the long sword on his waist and come out and kill the arrogant beggar gang of seven bags of disciples in front of him! Su Huaiyuan has the internal strength of the Divine Light Sutra and the Blood Sword Sutra, plus the cultivation of Zixia Divine Skill and Dugu Nine Swords under the guidance of Chen Xiang, his skills are already good, and he is maintaining His Majesty who he respects the most, so when he was about to draw his sword, there was really a terrifying murderous aura rushing to his face! Even that
Chen Xiang waved his hand lightly and said: "It's okay, Huaiyuan, they don't know our identity, which means that our whereabouts are safe, it doesn't matter, gather other people in the rivers and lakes just to absorb some new blood, everything depends on the fate." ”
As he spoke, he was about to take people away, but he walked a short distance, and not long after he was separated from Wu Liang, a disciple of the beggar gang. At this time, Chen Xiang said lightly: "This friend, come out of that red-roofed broken house, those people from the beggar gang have already left, there is no need to hide." ”
Hearing this, Huang Ba and Yang Zizai, who were silent, glanced at each other, and found that the two people with the highest martial arts in the other party's team actually didn't find that person, and their faces were suddenly ashamed, and they were also a little annoyed in their hearts, and immediately surrounded a red-roofed dilapidated house around.
Under the persecution of the two of them, at this time, a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old came out from outside the broken wall of a red-topped at the back of the line, he was dressed in black, his sword eyebrows were sharp, he looked a little thin, his spirit was very strong, and it was eye-catching, and he felt that he must not be an ordinary child. His face was full of hunger and cold, but his hands were white and tender, and he didn't know how he took care of his hands in such a troubled world.
He stared at Chen Xiang tightly with both eyes, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and looked at the Mingjiao people surrounding him with a little nervousness, standing on his two feet, obviously ready to fight if he could beat it, and run away if he couldn't beat it.
In Chen Xiang's eyes, this kid obviously has a unique qualification, the muscles and bones of the whole body are naturally the same, the meridians are lively and natural, there is no impurities like a newborn, and he has abundant internal strength, almost like a master who has cultivated advanced internal force for decades.
Looking at the luck on his head again, it is actually a magnificent breath of fresh air!! This shows that this person is not in the red dust, and his final destiny will still be on the path of becoming a monk.
It's just that he still looks so young, naturally because of his own excellent qualifications, and what famous teacher cheats he has encountered, so he has this achievement today.
"Who are you? Why are you tracking me? Chen Xiang stopped his subordinates' attempts to subdue the young man and asked lightly. The young man did not relax his preparation for a counterattack at all, swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, and said, "I...... I'm Zhang Junbao, I, I see that you are in contact with that Wu Liang and want to warn you. ”
Zhang Junbao? Zhang Sanfeng? The founder of the Wu-Tang Clan? Chen Xiang was slightly surprised.
According to the history behind, Zhang Sanfeng is a righteous and awe-inspiring, generous and calm, quite immortal style and bones, the world's unparalleled martial arts genius, self-created Taijiquan, Taiji sword, will carry forward the Wudang faction, prestige and martial arts heroes are all worshipped. It is a generation of martial arts masters, and it is more likely that he is a top master who has already ascended to the path of cultivating immortals. His disciple Sun Zhang Wuji is also a generation of masters, and he has also won many adventures, and he has cultivated the Jiuyang True Scripture and the Great Shift of Qiankun, which is really not to be underestimated!
Zhang Junbao was originally a small novice in the Shaolin Temple, and Yang Guo, the Condor Hero, instructed four martial arts, three of which were "pushing the heart", "extending in all directions", and "who is the hand of the deer", defeating the two long-famous people from the Western Regions who invaded the Shaolin Temple, which shows how good his qualifications are. Said that Zhang Sanfeng's real name is Zhang Junbao, for the Shaolin fire foreman Tuo Jueyuan monk's apprentice, master and apprentice for violating Shaolin's ban on learning martial arts without authorization, was kicked out, and later Zhang Junbao will be on his teacher Master Jueyuan's deathbed before his death, heard him recite one of the parts of the "Jiuyang Sutra", plus the usual teaching of Jueyuan, so the "Jiuyang Sutra" is pure, and thus laid the foundation of his peerless master. Later, he adapted according to the Shaolin Gongfa and created the Wudang School.
It seems that in Chen Xiang's eyes, the young man's body is full of internal strength, and it must be because he has cultivated part of the Jiuyang True Scripture.
In the later legend, Zhang Junbao founded the Wudang School based on some of the scriptures of the "Jiuyang True Scripture" that he remembered, holding the "Xianjia Yijin Sutra", which was born from the "Yijin Sutra" of the Shaolin School, and became a generation of martial arts masters, top masters and martial arts Taishan Beidou, enjoying a lofty status, and at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he was a transcendent figure who led the rivers and lakes.
There are also legends that Zhang Sanfeng came out of Shaolin and was proficient in the essence of Shaolin five fists and eighteen styles, and incorporated them into the ten sections of cotton long boxing, and changed the method of fighting to defend against the enemy, and the style was very different from Shaolin, so it was unique and created the Wudang sect; Also known as the inner house. Ten years of success, the reputation has been greatly enhanced, and there are Tai Chi, Xingyi, Bagua and other tribes.
Now standing in front of Chen Xiang is such a future great master, which also makes Chen Xiang a little excited, and said with a slight smile: "It turned out to be Zhang Sanfeng!" Freedom, you are not allowed to be rude! Mitutoyo hero, you can come closer and talk, it's okay. Yang Zizi and the others had to put away their formation and let go of this inexplicable kid.
Zhang Junbao was a little surprised, laughed again, and said, "How do you know my name Sanfeng?" That's just a joke on my own. And I'm not famous yet, at least it's much less famous than the Iron Gate Killer Wu Liang! Why are you so cold to him and so enthusiastic to me? Seeing Chen Xiang's kind attitude, he was much more natural and no longer so restrained.
Such a demeanor is really convincing, in such an environment, you can still talk and laugh like this, although it is still too jerky, but there is already a prototype of a generation of grandmasters. Chen Xiang couldn't help but secretly admire, and even had a plan in his heart to recruit Zhang Junbao into his command.
Chen Xiang smiled and said, "Your qualifications are first-class, if you cultivate them carefully, you will definitely become a generation of grandmasters, so I assert so." You can definitely become a generation of heroes. ”
Zhang Junbao took a few steps forward, also grinned, and said: "What you said is really good, there have been several seniors who have commented on me like this, but I am still just a little minion, and I don't even know if I can live until tomorrow." I just want to tell you one thing this time, that is, this Wu Liang is not a good person, and we suspect that he has been bribed by the Mongols as a bait to fish for heroes from all walks of life, but we don't have any definite evidence yet, so we just remind you. ”
Chen Xiang raised her eyebrows and let out a surprised sigh. When he was in contact with that Wu Liang just now, he already felt that the other party had bad intentions in his heart, but he was afraid that his side was strong and did not have a seizure, but he didn't expect this kid to point it out so directly.
"Did you find that? Who else is behind you? Chen Xiang asked naturally.
Zhang Junbao was shocked again, and said with a smile: "You don't have to care about anyone behind me, as long as you really want to save those anti-Yuan righteous people, you will naturally be able to see the people behind me." ”
Chen Xiang smiled faintly and said, "I know if you don't say it." Because I already smell the iron! Come out! Saying that, the wall somewhere broke violently, and a golden light flashed out of the smoke and dust, and a sharp long sword flew out of the concealment, and fell straight into Chen Xiang's hand, which was the sharpest long sword in the world, the Heavenly Sword!
Then flew out of the figure of a girl, and the Heavenly Sword appeared, so the identity of this girl was about to come out! She is the second daughter of Guo Jing and his wife, Guo Xiang!
When he was just born, Xiangyang City was in a melee; At that time, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu took the child from Huang Rong's arms, planning to exchange her for the antidote to the love flower poison. But Yang Guo later gave up on the idea. Later, Yang Guo and Li Mochou took the child and fed her leopard milk.
Li Mochou saw Guo Xiang and misunderstood that she was the child of Xiaolongnu and Yang Guo; snatched Xiao Guo Xiang away and wanted to blackmail Yang Guo. But Xiao Guo Xiang is innocent and cute, and Li Mochou wanted a son when he was young; did not kill him ruthlessly, and took good care of Guo Xiang.
When Huang Rong's body recovered, she was anxious when she heard that the child was snatched away by Li Mochou. Once when he took Guo Fu back to Peach Blossom Island for refuge, he found Li Mochou and fought with him. Li Mochou didn't go all out to meet Guo Xiang because he took care of Guo Xiang in his arms (at this time, he didn't know that this little baby was the daughter of Guo Jing and Huang Rong); Later, he mistakenly fell into the scheme set up by Huang Rong, and was hit by the secret weapon he sent out, the poison on the Ice Spirit Silver Needle. When she was on the line of life and death, Huang Rong had to choose one between herself and Xiao Guo Xiang to survive; It was not easy for this murderous female devil to hesitate, and Huang Rong spared her because of this. At this time, Yang Guo happened to pass by; Because of his hatred for Guo Fu, he took the child back to the ancient tomb and fed the child with jade bee syrup with the little dragon girl. After that, Guo Fu and others came to Zhongnan Mountain and entered the ancient tomb to retrieve the child. When accompanying Yang Guo, Xiaolongnu and others to the Valley of Despair to seek an antidote, he was almost killed by Master Ci'en, a monk whose original name was Qiu Qianren, who had been enlightened by Master Yideng and became a monk; Fortunately, Huang Rong was witty, and pretended to be crazy and stupid to ask for Ci'en's life, the concubine of Master Yideng before leaving home, Aunt Ying, who used tricks to deceive Ci'en and save the child.
Guo Xiang heard the deeds of the Condor Heroes in Fenglingdu and wanted to see Yang Guo. Then Uncle Shi just needed the nine-tailed spirit fox of Black Dragon Pond to heal his injuries, so he followed Yang Guo to help them capture them. Yang Guo took Guo Xiang to the Black Dragon Pond to meet the owner of this place, Aunt Ying, and explained the intention, but he did not agree, a lamp and mercy appeared, and finally said that he could only agree to bring Zhou Botong in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, and then Yang Guo took Guo Xiang After some twists and turns, Zhou Botong was brought, so that the two reunited, and Aunt Ying handed over the spirit fox.
Before her sixteenth birthday, Yang Guo summoned all the heroes to buy birthday gifts for her; And on his birthday, he personally led the heroes of the rivers and lakes to celebrate his birthday, and then Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu reunited on the bank of the waterhole at the bottom of the broken intestine cliff in the Valley of Despair. When the Yuan Dynasty emperor Meng Ge personally led a large army to attack Xiangyang, Guo Xiang was taken hostage by the Mongolian national teacher King Jinlun; Tied to the burning tower, he was later rescued by Yang Guo. After the third Huashan sword debate, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu returned to seclusion side by side, and separated from everyone in Huashan. Since then, Guo Xiang has begun her journey to find Yang Guo's traces in the rivers and lakes.
Four years later, 20-year-old Guo Xiang passed through Shaomu Mountain to visit the Shaolin Colorless Zen Master. coincided with the Kunlun faction's founding patriarch, He Zudao, who was entrusted by * Zi and Yin Kexi to come to Shaolin to spread the word; Shaolin and his party, He Zudao shocked the audience; However, because he met Zhang Junbao, the master disciple of Master Jueyuan, who was in charge of the book in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Shaolin Temple, he followed Master Jueyuan to practice the Chinese commentary in the Ranga Sutra - Jiuyang True Scripture (Jiuyang Divine Skill) and felt deeply ashamed, so he returned to the Western Regions. rs
