Xiong Le, Qiu Jing, Shi Yi and others sat in the distance and watched Zhang Xuan go out to ask for things, eating closed door soup again and again to find people to ask for things, until a child screamed at the top of his voice, and the adults raised sticks and ran out to chase Zhang Xuan all over the ground, and Shi Yi went out to intervene.

He is a native and speaks the local language.

After the end, Shi Yi and Zhang Xuan returned to their place with a bunch of things, not only quilts, pillows, ginger, and tea, in general, the local people were very friendly.

In the evening, Zhang Xuan, under the guidance of Zhang Yuan, climbed to the highest place to observe the celestial phenomena, while Qiu Jing and Xiong Le were poured a lot of ginger tea and chatted with Shi Yi.

"I see that you all love this junior brother very much, why do you want to play such a trick on him during the day?" Qiu Jing asked him puzzled.

Just now, everyone could hear that "I don't want the quilt that my aunt slept on, I want a little girl" was a joke to embarrass him, but Zhang Xuan still asked for it with suspicion. After the most Lu was almost beaten as a disciple, it was Shi Yi and the girl of the family who explained the situation before they came back safely with the quilt.

When he thought that Zhang Xuan wanted a quilt for himself and Xiong Le until he was almost beaten, he couldn't help it.

"Lord Qiu doesn't know that Zhang Xuan is the most perceptive and most stable disciple of our Longhu Mountain Dao Court generation, but even so, his heart is too pure, and it is not easy to get in touch with the existence of 'Dao'." Shi Yi looked at Zhang Xuan's figure looking at the night sky from the top of the mountain, and then said: "He sees everything as 'Tao', but forgets 'me', which is a very dangerous thing. My master always asked us to try our best to contaminate him with worldly troubles, just to let him give birth to more 'mortal minds'. ”

"Doesn't Taoism pay attention to 'birth'?" Qiu Jing was curious.

"If we don't 'join the WTO,' how can we talk about 'being born.'" Even though he has been an official in the imperial court, he still has not 'joined the WTO', and my master came to Beijing to contact him this time, and found that he was still full of such things as soaring and epiphany. These are the results, not the process, and my Master wants him to take a good look at the 'process'. So since we were young, we like to interrupt him and ask him to do this and that. Shi Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Now it seems that there really is such a pure person in this world, but it is useless." ”

He didn't feel humiliated at all after being chased and beaten by others, but he ran to a high place to observe the sky in a moment, and he wouldn't let any mortal dust stay in his heart for too long.

There is still too much for him to learn from this little junior brother.

"Why is there some fire at the foot of the mountain?" A Taoist soldier pointed down the mountain.

Xiong Le had already fallen asleep because of some fever, Qiu Jing and Shi Yi followed the instructions of the Taoist soldiers to look down, and sure enough, there were some firelights shaking at the foot of the mountain, and after a while, those firelights gradually fluttered upward, obviously the person with the torch went up Niangniang Mountain.

Qiu Jing had a bad premonition in his heart. The people who went up the mountain at this time and time really couldn't think of any other reason than coming to them.

Sure enough, a dozen people who went up the mountain wore official soap clothes, had weapons pinned to their waists, and went up the mountain with torches.

They searched all the way here, except for the bodies of several officials who fell behind, the bodies of Qiu Jing and Xiong Le were not found. When a dead person dies, the body floats on the surface of the water, which should be very easy to identify, but they searched for a long time downstream and did not see the body, so they guessed that they had been rescued.

The officials went to look for the officials here, and when they heard their questioning, they shook their heads and replied to him.

"We have been guiding people up the mountain to avoid the water, and we have not gone to the river to save anyone. At this time, it was almost far from the river, let alone going into the river. The official denied Shangguan's question.

These later officials were very discouraged when they heard this answer. They searched all the way upstream, and they searched for people everywhere, and they all said that they had never rescued anyone who had fallen into the water. Now there is no one behind Niangniang Mountain, this is the most water-sheltering hill in their county, after Niangniang Mountain, it will go to the boundary of other counties.

I can't find anyone to go back, and it's a small matter to be beaten and scolded, so I'm afraid that the county order will kill you......

If he is unkind, do not blame him for being unjust. ’

The official smiled sinisterly.

At this time, Zhang Xuan had already followed Zhang Yuan down the boulder at the peak with a worried face and came towards the head of the official.

When he saw that there were many more faces in this place, and everyone was wearing official clothes and weapons, he also chuckled in his heart.

In the afternoon, they rescued the two envoys who controlled the water, and in the evening these people searched here, and they came so quickly!

Zhang Xuan's face was silent, but he arched his hand to the official who was in charge of the security here:

"Wu Yantou, I look at the celestial phenomenon, the east is red and there are black puffs tumbling, I think the upstream has burst the embankment, we have lakes and rivers connected to the river veins under the mountain, if once the embankment breaks, I am afraid that the water will block the road. Fortunately, there is also clean water on the mountain, there is no need to prepare more, the water is fierce, you still have to appease the people more. ”

The official leader saw that he was a young Taoist priest pointing fingers here, chattering about things upstream, and couldn't help frowning: "Who are you?" ”

"My lord, he is Lord Zhang Xuanzhang, the five senses of Qin Tianjian, who led a group of Taoist priests to evacuate the people in various places." The official was worried that the official leader had offended the Beijing officials, so he hurriedly reported Zhang Xuan's name and origin.

As soon as he heard that it was someone from Kyori, he immediately became vigilant.

"Who are you coming with?" Didn't you come with the Ministry of Industry to control the water?

"This official came to Wuzhou with his colleagues from Longhu Mountain, and went south to Qiantang through Jianye and Gusu, and was commissioned by the Yamen of the political envoy of Benzhou to survey the local water shelter. Who are you? Where did it come from, and under whom did it come from? ”

Zhang Xuan has been an official in Beijing for several years, although he doesn't put any official shelves on weekdays (and can't put them up), but after all, Beijing officials have a lot of knowledge, and they have seen a lot of adults' behavior.

The official leader came out to find someone, naturally hoping that less people would know the Tao, the better. He pursed his lips and didn't speak, but the official on the side spoke: "Master Zhang doesn't know, this is Yu Hang......"

The official gave a glare, and the official shut up.

"I am performing official duties below, and it is inconvenient to inform my identity, and I hope that my lord Haihan."

"I see, the official didn't ask much." Zhang Xuan nodded with an understanding expression, but he was already sure in his heart that he was the group of evil officials who poisoned the envoys of the Ministry of Industry.

He said goodbye to this person, and was about to turn around and leave, when he suddenly heard the local official's head call as if he remembered something: "I remember, Lord Zhang's Daoguan fell into the water today, and many Taoist chiefs went into the water to fish together." Chief Meng, what are you looking for? Why don't you ask Lord Zhang......"

Zhang Xuan couldn't wait to rush up and cover the mouth of this official.

"Oh, and what's going on?" The official leader sighed and pressed Zhang Xuan's shoulder. "Lord Zhang, I don't know if you saw anyone who fell into the water when you went into the water to catch the crown today? Wearing an official uniform, one has a white face and a slight beard, and the other is tall and has slender eyes. ”

"No, I'm just getting a hat, why do you want to see someone who has fallen into the water?" Zhang Xuan concealed his panic and shook his head calmly. "The hat fell on the edge of the water, but the current was too fast, and I was too poor in the water. So I asked a few people from the same door to go into the water to fish. ”

"It's just a crown ......" The official leader made the same question as the official at that time, turned his head sideways and said something to another official next to him, and then continued to press Zhang Xuan's shoulder.

"Master Lao took me to the same door to ask about the Daoguan during the day, and see if they had saved the person who fell into the water."

He pressed Zhang Xuan's shoulder with one hand, stroked the weapon at his waist with the other, and said "Youlao" in his mouth, what he actually meant, it is self-evident.

He took Zhang Xuan as a hostage.

Zhang Xuan secretly hated in his heart that he was not as good as Senior Brother Zhang Yuan, otherwise he would not have been held by someone unconsciously, the hand of the official leader stuck his shoulder like a pair of pliers, so that he could not move, he twisted slightly, and felt a sharp pain in his shoulder bone.

This man is a practitioner.

"What do you mean, my lord? I am the official of the seventh rank of the imperial court, do you dare to collide with the official? "Zhang Xuan paid attention to his official clothes when he first came, but he was a military attache from the eighth grade, and he dared to hijack him when he knew his identity, how bold were these people?

Is it not just as simple as embezzling the funds for the repair of the river?

"Lord Zhang, I was also forced by official business, if you offend, please Haihan." He was polite in his mouth, but he grabbed Zhang Xuan and pushed him forward in his hand.

"Master Zhang, let's take us for a trip."

The messenger who was in charge of the security of Niangniang Mountain was also startled, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this Yuhang military officer. But his own Shangguan was still under the jurisdiction of the local county order, and he didn't dare to say more, so he could only take a few steps back, and he didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, Zhang Yuan was clever and saw that Zhang Xuan's side was wrong from a distance, so he hurriedly rushed back to the same door and reminded Shi Yi that there was a villain.

"Lord Xiong, Lord Xiong......" Shi Yi woke Xiong Ping up and let him and Qiu Jing hide among the many Taoist soldiers first. No matter what happens, don't keep quiet, they are not as many as us, and with me in the same door, no one can do anything to you. ”

"But, Zhang Xuan, he ......"

"You don't have to worry, we'll do it when we get there." After Shi Yi pacified the two court officials, he followed several juniors and disciples to discuss countermeasures.

"Senior brother, that official is very stable, he should have practiced foreign kung fu, and he is on the hard side." Zhang Yuan is a master of the inner family, otherwise his grandfather would not have assured him to travel down the mountain, "I see that his five fingers are tightly clasped, and he holds down the shoulder well and Quhuan several points of his junior brother, so that his upper body cannot move, the acupoints are accurate, and the technique is exquisite, it should not be from a wild road." This man is a master, but he is a small official, and there must be problems in it. ”

"There's no time to discuss this now, how to rescue Senior Brother Zhang Xuan and protect the two adults is serious." Shi Yi pinched the corner of his forehead with a headache. This time I went down the mountain, everything went well, but when I got to the south, something happened instead!

Zhang Yuan and Senior Brother Kou, who was proficient in medical skills, discussed for a while, and gestured to something, and while he was talking, the official leader had already pushed Zhang Xuan to the side of the Daomen with more than a dozen people, asking them to think about whether they had saved any people who had fallen into the water during the day.

Shi Yi piled up a smile and went around, saying that he had never seen a person who fell into the water all the way, and he didn't know where the official of Lu Dao said this.

He has been helping the master and the senior sister to take care of the Taoist affairs in Longhu Mountain, his words are not leaky, and his attitude is sincere, and the errand behind the official has carefully checked the place where the Taoist soldiers gathered, and there are really only Taoist priests, and there are no officials.

Hearing the officer's report, the official also had doubts in his heart.

Could it be that these Taoist priests just take the Taoist crown more seriously, just like our officials have lost their official hats? ’

If he makes a big fuss, then he is startling the snake.

According to his years of experience in the rivers and lakes, his intuition is that there must be something wrong with these Taoist priests.

Zhang Xuan only felt that his shoulders were numb, and he didn't know what kind of trick Lu Dao used to make his upper body unable to even turn his head, so he could only be obediently pushed forward by him, let alone turn around or resist.

The scene was stalemate for a while, and the soap-clothed official waited for the people below to come back to deliver the news, and then refused to let go. Until the errand man ran back and reported back to the soapy officer:

"My lord, according to some people, when these Taoist priests went up the mountain, they carried two people who could not move around, and they were also wearing Taoist clothes, and Lord Zhang and several other Taoist priests had water stains on their bodies."

The soap-clothed official sneered: "You really have hidden people." I advise you to hand them over, or else this lord will not look good. ”

He has something to rely on behind him, and he is unscrupulous in his actions. These people are all here to avoid the water, and they can't leave the range of Niangniang Mountain, even if they know something, when their people arrive, so many people will only have no corpses.

Zhang Yuan gave Senior Brother Kou a look, and quietly made a few gestures behind him.

He stood up, gradually approached the soap-clothed official, and said with a puzzled look: "Xiaodao doesn't know what the Daoist official said, we are carrying up the mountain with a broken foot......"

"Stand still, don't go any further." The official was alert and hurriedly stopped Zhang Yuan's movements.

"Okay, okay, don't go, don't go, the trail will stand here and talk to you." After he finished speaking, he slowly turned sideways, and no one noticed what he was turning sideways for.

Senior Brother Kou, who was standing behind him, waved his right hand, and three golden needles shot out, two of which shot into the eyes of the official, and one shot at the arm that he was holding Zhang Xuan. This golden needle is as thin as a hair, and when it flies out, it is silent, and Zhang Yuan blocks the view, and when the soapy official notices it, it is too late, so he can only push Zhang Xuan forward to block the needle.

Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Kou closed his five fingers, and the needle changed direction in mid-air and continued to move forward, but it still pierced the back of the official's hand.

When Zhang Xuan was pushed to the front, Zhang Yuan stepped forward with a vertical body, his light body kung fu was excellent, and he moved forward more than two feet in a moment, pulling Zhang Xuan and quickly retreating, pushing him behind Senior Brother Kou.

"Silver Needle, are you the queen of the Golden Needle Kou?" When the soap-clothed official saw the transparent silk thread hanging on the thin needle, he immediately realized that he was underestimating the enemy. There are hidden masters in this group of Taoist priests, and I can't be good this time.

He was struck three times in the back of his hand, drew his saber and cut off a piece of his coat, immediately tied his wrist firmly, and drew a golden needle to prepare for bloodletting.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he pulled out the gold needle, he was suddenly dizzy and fell to the ground at once.

"Hey, you're really anxious. If you don't pull it out, I'm going to pull it out too, but you pull it out faster than I do. Senior Brother Kou shook his head, "I learned the way of Qihuang, and I never used 'dead needles', only 'faint needles'." ”

"What nonsense with the fainted people, I'm about to subdue this group of people, and tie up the Taoist friends who are waiting for the news tomorrow morning to bring the Chinese army to pick up people." Zhang Yuan really couldn't stand Senior Brother Kou's casual temperament, pulled out the soft sword at his waist, and stepped forward to meet the enemy with a martial arts soldier.

Although Zhang Yuan's temperament is not suitable for cultivation, he is a genius for practicing martial arts. He was in charge of rewards and punishments in the Daoist Court, and he was the grandson of Daoist Zhang Tianshi, and the Daoist soldiers who came this time were under his jurisdiction. He was wearing an apricot yellow robe, and he fought with a group of soap-clothed officials, and this group of soap-clothed officials didn't know where they found it.

What's even more strange is that these people are also quite proficient in the combined attack array, a group of people form a circle, attack and defend each other, and turn this place into a place of martial arts.

Zhang Yuan snorted coldly, raised his sword and went up, picking up a weak point and splitting his head with a sword, only to see many black shadows and a yellow shadow circling and flying in the moonlight, mixed with a few cold lights, and occasionally making a few sounds of weapons colliding.

Zhang Yuan's swordsmanship is the inner swordsmanship of Taoism, a soft sword is long and short, soft and hard, and the offense and defense are exchanged, which makes people dizzy. His light body kung fu is a secret that Taoism does not pass on, for a time the audience was full of his figure, the sword move was still on the left when the sword move came out, and the body had turned to the right when the sword move reached the enemy, it seemed that people were people, and the sword was a sword, and there was no legendary "man and sword unity" chapter, so that this group of soap-clothed officials were all shocked and retreated.

Since the Taoist soldiers are called "Taoist soldiers", they are naturally not miscellaneous, a group of people either take short sticks, or dust, and some hold soft swords, and rush over with Zhang Yuan's broken opening, and after a while, this group of soap-clothed officials has been trampled on the ground.

Zhang Yuan sneered and patted the cheek of the person under his feet with the back of his sword, "The Eagle Yang faction was also a big faction back then, but now although it has declined, I haven't heard that the Juyang faction has voted for the government." The person who was put down by my junior brother thinks that he is your eagle elder, I really don't know that you have the wrong string in your brain, and you still dare to hunt down and kill the court officials. ”

Here there were swords and soldiers, and some people were injured and fell to the ground, and the people who took refuge around were so frightened that they didn't dare to make a sound, and they couldn't imagine that the Taoist priests who went up the mountain and helped them carry things and carried children suddenly became fierce and vicious people who attacked the government.

And the Taoist with a smile on his face, he actually used a sword to threaten the person under his feet, it was really bad!

"Senior brother, when you go out, pay attention to your image." Shi Yi was almost speechless from being tortured by his own junior brother. When I was in the mountains, I didn't look like a monk, but like a wild man, when I went out, I was crazy when I got into a fight.

They are a Taoist sect, but not a sword sect.

Zhang Yuan was reprimanded by his senior brother, and saw the people who were watching the excitement in a circle next to him, raised his foot and asked the Taoist soldiers to tie the person away, and made a gesture to the people around him:

"It's not a secret, we rescued two imperial envoys sent by Beijing to control the water in the river under the mountain today, Yuhang County ordered to embezzle the special funds of the imperial court to repair the river, and seeing that the matter was about to be leaked, we took the opportunity to push several imperial envoys from Beijing down the river, and sent this group of thieves to chase and kill. Now that the thief has been taken down by us, I hope you don't panic, as early as tonight, at the latest tomorrow morning, there will be a Chinese army to pick up the two adults. Please stay where you are, and don't be provoked by traitors and become accomplices. ”

He talked about the traitor, but he squinted at the head of the local official who had hurried in with a group of servants.

Zhang Xuan showed the seal of himself and the two lords, and ordered the head of the official and the officials brought by the head of the official not to come near the place where they were camping. He didn't know if anyone had gone down the mountain to report the news at this time, and now he could only deal with it like this.

However, the people here are very good, and their trust in the imperial court is also very high, and the people heard that there were two imperial envoys who came down from Beijing to help them control the water, so they immediately asked the strong men in the family to come over to protect the members of the capital.

For a time, Xiong Le and Qiu Jing were hidden among the Taoist priests, Zhang Yuan and his elite Taoist soldiers were in the outer circle, and the strong men guarding the Taoist priests with sticks and kitchen knives in their hands were outside.

Seeing this momentum, the group of errand soldiers did not dare to move, so they could only continue to do nothing without knowing what to do.

They are stupid, there are only fifty people in total, and in the face of so many strong soldiers, they are stupid to want to save the group of Shangguan who don't know where Lu Dao came from or if they are thieves.

They're just sent to keep the law and order here anyway. Isn't it very safe now?

Ha, haha......

This situation lasted until the early hours of the morning, and many people unconsciously got up.

The earth was trembling, and the rumbling sound woke up countless people. Zhang Xuan listened to the terrible sound with a pale face, and shouted: "This is impossible, I look at the sky, the upstream is a torrential rain in the evening, why is there a flood so soon downstream!" ”

Xiong Le and Qiu Jing listened to the sound of a fierce beast roaring at the bottom of the mountain, and smiled bitterly after looking at each other:

"What else can be the reason, the river defense here is regarded as a fictitious situation, the upstream embankment has burst, and it can still hold out for a while in other places, and there is no mouth that can be blocked here. The levees were washed away, and the flood water was mixed with collapsed houses and stones rushing down from the upstream......"

Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth and rattled. He predicted that it would last at least a day, so he asked Daoyou to go to Yuhang and Qiantang not far away to secretly find the Chinese army and the government army to pick up the two adults.

Now that the flood has suddenly erupted, although it has blocked the wicked people who may go up the mountain to search for people, if the Taoist friends and those soldiers who came to pick up people are still on the road, it must be more than lucky.

It's that he is too arrogant, thinking that his prediction is foolproof, but he didn't expect that there is * in addition to natural disasters, and he can't be ignored by common sense at all.

"Ah!!!h

Zhang Xuan slammed his fist on the ground and let out a roar of grief and indignation.

Four days later, in Beijing.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent letter from Wuzhou." Qi Shao held the fold from Wuzhou in his hand and bent down to the front of the emperor.

"Where did the levee burst again? Or where is there a need for relief and someone has been sent to ask me for funds to allocate food? "Since the torrential rain began to fall in various places half a month ago, and the upstream began to burst the embankment, Wuzhou and the southern states have been in an endless stream.

Chu Rui really saw that he wanted to vomit. After so many years of his accession to the throne, the wind and rain have been smooth, and suddenly there are hailstorms, snowstorms, and now floods, which caught him off guard.

Since the beginning of the flood, he has not slept more than two hours a day.

"Your Majesty, it's not that. Wuzhou political envoy urgent letter, there in Yuhang to assist in the evacuation of the people of the Taoist priest sent a message to the government, this person with the token of Lord Qiu, the Tao is Lord Xiong and Lord Qiu in the process of inspection found that Yuhang County order has embezzled the Ministry of Industry appropriations, was designed to push into the river, fortunately passing by the river downstream of the Lord Zhang rescued, was rescued not far from Niangniang Mountain......"

Qi Shao was a close-up housekeeper in the imperial study, and Chu Rui valued it and asked him to be responsible for classifying all kinds of twists and turns. This was an urgent letter, and as soon as he saw the content, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent it in.

"Are you serious?" Chu Rui was happy and angry in his heart, and hurriedly took the fold.

"The compromise is exactly what it is. But now the Qiantang area is flooded, most of the southern part of Wuzhou has been flooded, although Niangniang Mountain has not been flooded due to the high terrain, but the flood has blocked the way, so that the Chinese army and the government army can not go to Niangniang Mountain to meet the two adults. Now that the political envoy has taken the government soldiers to Yuhang, he has arrested the county commander and his henchmen. ”

Qi Shao read the post before, and at this time he repeated the key points to Chu Rui. The excerpt was not stamped with a "secret" stamp, so he could read it in advance. As a priest, it is also one of his responsibilities to report the key points

"I already know about this matter, and the Shangshu of the Propaganda Department, the Military Department, the Ministry of Industry, and the Household Department have come to see me."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will go to deliver the decree."

Qi Shao took the order, and when he saw that the emperor's face was not good, he didn't dare to stay in the study longer. The emperor hadn't slept well for a long time, and he had been quite moody these days, which made them tremble.

He hurried out to find the official who delivered the decree to read the decree, and after finishing speaking, he couldn't help but wipe the beads of sweat off the tip of his nose.

It's not easy for the Son of Heaven to be close to the ministers, so it's better to study at home.

The author has something to say:
