Chapter 383: Northland (3)
Li Fang, the right prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, Lu Mengzheng, the governor of the Privy Council, Zhang Qixian, the right counselor, Kou Zhun, the left counselor, Zhou Huaizheng, the eunuch, and Yang Heyi, the general of Dingyuan, crossed the not very long Fuzhou Street under the protection of Yang Linyu, the head of the forbidden army, and 100 forbidden troops. The wide and falling compound is the mansion of the Zhejia army in Fuzhou.
The Zhejia Army, the Yang Family General, and the Chongjia Army were the three important military forces guarding the border passes in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the imperial court opened a special convenient door for them: the official position can be inherited and inherited, and the army is used to protect the country and bear the social order of one side; Defending the country and home is their dual task.
The Zhejia Army is also different from the Yang family generals and the Chongjia army, which is a purely private army and can recruit soldiers on their own; Military spending is financed by the tax revenue of the areas under its own jurisdiction, and the shortfall is subsidized by the central government.
Li Fang and his entourage rushed to Zhefu to report to the interior, and Zhe Yuqing was sick at this time; His younger brother Zhi Yuzhong brought people to greet him.
Didn't Zhi Yuzhong rescue Liu Min in Toad Mountain, and was expelled by the demon monk Weng Lianluqi and burned to death by poisonous toads? How......
That's right, Zhi Yuzhong is the young general who was almost burned to death by the demon monk Weng Lianluqi who released seven poisonous toads in the Toad Mountain in the Songpan region of the southwest.
But the toad essence fire did not burn Zhi Yuzhong, and was escaped by Zhen Yuzhong.
Zhi Yuzhong is the third generation of the descendants of the Zhe family army, and his ancestors are party members and Li Jiqian, who has always wanted to rebel against the Song Dynasty, are the two neighbors next door.
At the age of twelve, Li Jiqian was appointed by his uncle as a petty official in charge of the tribe, and his descendants were Li Yuanhao, the ghost head who established the Western Xia Kingdom.
In 596 years after Li Yuanhao's death, Xiazhou, where Li Jiqian grew up, gave birth to another king Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng was born in Li Jiqian Village, and took advantage of the chaos in the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty to raise troops to attack Beijing; Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, who could have continued the fireworks of the Han family, was forced to commit suicide, and Nurhachi's descendants entered the Guannai to seize power; Since then, the Chinese nation has fallen into misery under the rule of the Manchus, and has been beaten by Western powers for hundreds of years and almost perished.
Imagine, if there is no Li Zicheng's troublemakers, can the Qing soldiers enter the pass? Can Emperor Chongzhen hang himself on the coal mountain? The answer seems to be clear – no!
However, it was Li Zicheng, the remnant of the party, that caused Huaxia to sink.
Li Jiqian's family has formed a destructive gene to society from the bones, and once it breaks out, there will be chaos in the world.
When Li Jiqian was 17 years old, he had already gathered anti-Song forces, and came to Zhejia Zhaitao, almost trying to pull Zhejia into the water; was reprimanded by the owner of the folded family, and was targeted by the folded royal loyalty.
Zhi Yuzhong was very angry at Li Jiqian's rebellion, and after Li Jiqian left Zhejiazhai, Zhi Yuzhong did not relax his vigilance and followed him to check.
Li Jiqian returned to Xiazhou Dangxiang Village from Fuzhou and cursed the Zhe family, so he took 100 dead soldiers to the southwest Songpan area to continue to expand his strength; Zhi Yuzhong followed all the way.
Zhi Yuzhong met Liu Min and Huo Renfu's grandsons who walked out of Xuanji Cave in Shiquan County, and they eliminated Wei Qingming and his gang of sabotage forces at the Qingshichuan Horse Farm; and Li Jiqian met unexpectedly.
After Liu Min stabbed Wei Baimao with a plum blossom flying needle in the red pine forest, he chased after the demon monk Weng Lian Gulu; But he was captured by Weng Lian Gulu's master, Weng Lian Luqi.
After hearing the news, Zhe Yuzhong went to rescue Liu Min, and saw Li Xian being killed by Weng Lianluqi in Biandangou.
Li was Zhang Jing's brother, and Zhang Jing cried when he touched the corpse; Zhi Yuzhong thought about Liu Min, and hurriedly chased after Weng Lianlu without caring about Li Xian's affairs.
Weng Lian Luqi went directly to Toad Mountain, and Zhen Yuzhong mistakenly lackeyed Huang Liangchuan.
In Huangliangchuan, Zhe Yuzhong used silver to buy a small Qiang village to ask about the situation of the Qiang village; Falsely claiming that his sister was kidnapped and that he was looking for her.
The little guy in Qiangzhai got the silver of Yuzhong, and said that there were many people in Qiangzhai recently; But now I don't know where to go.
However, the Qiangzhai little guy still told Zhi Yuzhong: There is a toad mountain to the north from the dog lying on the Huangliang River, where there is a lama with a strong spell named Weng Lianluqi; Plundered a lot of girls outside the mountains, and it is not good that your sister was plundered by the lama.
Zhi Yuzhong asked the little guy in Qiangzhai about the way to Toad Mountain, and hurried there.
Zhi Yuzhong came to the stone arch bridge in front of Toad Mountain, and saw that there were monks patrolling the bridge; grabbed a tongue and killed it, changed into a monk's costume and came to Ningzhiping, where he met Liu Min and Weng Lianlu.
Zhi Yuzhong stepped forward to help Liu Min, and Liu Min saw that it was Zhi Yuzhong; Tears of excitement flowed down my face.
Weng Lianlu saw that Fold Yuzhong came out of the flat ground, and used the Seven Clam Zen staff to smash it backwards; actually knocked Zhe Yuzhong a few feet away.
Liu Min was shocked, and hurriedly rushed over to help Zhe Yuzhong up and said, "Brother Zhe, are you okay!" ”
Zhi Yuzhong perked up his spirits and said: "It's okay Minzi, but the bald donkey is not an idle person; Let's fight him together! ”
Weng Lianlu saw that Fold Yuzhong and Liu Mintuan were together, and Fold Yuzhong's weapon was a gentian bright silver spear; Liu Min's weapon was the Chengying Sword, and he gasped and jumped out of the circle and said: "The name of the widow is reported, and Weng Lian Luqi will not kill the nameless!" ”
Zhe Yuzhong shouted: "Bald donkey, listen, the master is the general of the Great Song Dynasty; Liu Min is my sister, and you whore thief actually kidnapped her to this place; Master is here to get your dog's head today! ”
Liu Min continued: "Miss Ben is Liu Min, you devil is doing mischief; Grandpa Shibi Moth, who killed this girl, your death is up today! ”
Weng Lian laughed loudly: "It turned out to be a boy from the folding family, you said that Liu Min is your sister and you don't make people laugh out of their big teeth!" ”
Weng Lianlu said, and said angrily: "Liu Min, this little demon girl, really doesn't know the height of the sky, and the old man was supposed to treat her well, but she took advantage of the old man's inattention to pick up a lamp for me; If the old man doesn't kill her, heaven can't tolerate it! ”
After a pause, he pointed at Yu Zhong and said: "But it's good that the boy of the Zhe family is here, leave the seven baby toads that feed the old man!" ”
Weng Lian Luqi said, waving the Seven Clam Zen Staff and calling Liu Min and Zhe Yuzhong, Liu Min and Zhe Yuzhong flashed quickly; But the Seven Clam Zen Staff is not an ordinary thing, and the swing of the left and right actually knocked the Gentian Bright Silver Spear and the Chengying Sword to the ground.
Liu Min and Zhi Yuzhong, who lost their weapons, had to go their separate ways, but fortunately, Zhi Yuzhong still had a Qinghong sword to deal with.
Liu Min's body was as light as a swallow, and he rolled to the ground and picked up the Chengying Sword and slashed at Weng Lianlu; Weng Lian Luqi used the Seven Clam Zen Staff to block it, and the force was like Mount Tai pressing, knocking Liu Min away like a fallen leaf.
Seeing that Liu Min was knocked away by the Seven Clam Zen staff, Zhi Yuzhong shouted "Minzi!" "the Qinghong Sword and Weng Lianlu and work hard.
Weng Lian Luqi sneered: "The little demon girl has died under the old man's Seven Clam Zen staff, and the children of the Zhe family still don't stop resisting and being captured!" ”
Seeing that Weng Lianlu insulted himself, Zhi Yuzhong rushed forward to pick up the gentian bright silver spear and stabbed at this guy; It was actually the pear blossom on the left and the cherry on the right, forcing Weng Lianlu to retreat.
Zhi Yuzhong laughed: "Listen to the bald donkey, the master's gentian bright silver spear will definitely smash you into a hornet's nest!" ”
Seeing Liu Min's gentian bright silver spear coming fiercely, Weng Lian Luqi jumped out of the circle and calmed down, and said disdainfully: "Don't get carried away, the old man wanted to protect you with a whole corpse, but you couldn't do it; Then let you be scattered here as a pile of ashes! ”
Weng Lianlu's horizontal flesh twitched, his eyes were murderous, and he slapped heavily on the Seven Clam Zen staff; I saw seven toads jumping out and glaring at Zhe Yuzhong.
Zhe Yuzhong tried his best to dodge, but the seven toads actually used their swooping skills to rush around Zhe Yuzhong; Zhi Yuzhong can resist harassment, and he doesn't know what to do
Weng Lianlu saw that Yu Zhong had become the end of the strong crossbow, and quickly opened the round cover at the bottom of the Seven Clam Zen staff; A blue flame poured out, enveloping Yu Zhong and burning brightly.
The blue fire is called the "toad essence fire", which is Weng Lian Luqi extracting the essence of tens of thousands of toads to practice to be able to incinerate the boulder, but poor Yu Zhong died in the demon fire of Weng Lian Luqi in order to rescue Liu Min.
Liu Min couldn't help crying loudly when he saw that Yu Zhong was in the demon fire of Weng Lianluqi; Straighten up and slash the shadow sword at the neck of the bald donkey.
Weng Lian Luqi shouted "not good" and hurriedly jumped up; Liu Min is pressing step by step.
Weng Lianlu saw that Liu Min was graceful and looked like a fairy, and she was moved with compassion and laughed: "Miss Minzi is really a fairy, you actually broke one of Lao Ke's eyes; But only if you rely on the old man, the old man will not let you die."
"The bald donkey spews dung with its mouth! You killed Shibi Moth, killed Brother Zhe, this girl hates to eat your flesh and drink your blood, and dares to be so brazen; Look at the sword! ”
Weng Lian Luqi used the Seven Clam Zen Staff to block Liu Min's Chengying Sword and brazenly said: "The little beauty is not Lao Gao's opponent, and Lao Gao doesn't want to ruin your life; As long as you are a wife to the old man, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth! ”
Liu Min shouted and scolded: "You pig-headed pig-brained guy still wants to eat swan meat, this girl won't kill you today, where is worthy of Brother Zhen under Jiuquan!" ”
Liu Min said, slashed pear blossoms with his sword, and assassinated Weng Lianlu.
Weng Lian Luqi blocked it with a Zen staff and said, "Isn't your brother Zhe dead, what is the girl still clinging to?" Lao Gu, this toad palace has 10,000 taels of gold, and there must be no problem with supporting you! ”
Liu Min said angrily: "Go and dream of your yellow sorghum, you dog-like guy, even if you become the emperor, this girl will regard you as a bunch of smelly shit......"
Weng Lian Luqi saw Liu Min's disrespectful words, and was furious, brandishing the Seven Clam Zen Staff to pick up the Chengying Sword, and then struck hard, the Chengying Sword flew towards the abyss next to it, and the dull falling sound was heavy and long, and then everything returned to calm.
Liu Min shouted: "My Shadow Sword! "I rushed to the top of the cliff to see, and I was forced back by Weng Lianlu's Seven Clam Zen Staff.
Liu Min was heartbroken, she didn't expect Weng Lian Luqi to knock the Chengying Sword into the valley; Losing the Chengying Sword, Liu Min is the meat on the chopping board, and he is at the mercy of Weng Lianlu.
But after all, she had practiced in Xuanji Cave, and suddenly remembered that she still had a titanium alloy scalpel; grabbed the scalpel in his hand and performed "Nuwa's Internal Strength" to brush his body; Go to Weng Lianlu.
Weng Lianlu couldn't dodge, and his head was heavily slammed with a scalpel, and a guy's blood flowed straight down.
Weng Lianlu was annoyed and ashamed, and slapped a few palms on the Seven Clam Zen staff; Seven toads came out in response, squatting on the ground and spitting smoke and smoke at Liu Min.
The seven toads spewed out three flavors of true fire, coming straight at Liu Min; Liu Min only felt a hot pain on her body, rolling on the ground, Weng Lian Luqi couldn't forgive her for waving the Seven Clam Zen Staff and beating Liu Min into the abyss.
Liu Min fell into the abyss and was rescued by the merchant Wang Zhou, and when Zhe Yuzhong was burned by Weng Lianlu's "toad essence fire", he struggled and rolled down a valley.
After rolling down the valley, Zhe Yuzhong was covered in bruises, but fortunately, he still held the gentian bright silver spear and the Qinghong sword in his hands; Jianei has a deep foundation, relying on eating wild fruits and drinking water to catch a few rabbits and pheasants to replenish his body, and he walked in the valley for several months and found Xuanji Cave.
Zhe Yuzhong regained his health under the treatment of the Xuanji Cave Lord and the Black Stagecoach.
After recovering his health, Zhi Yuzhong did not know Liu Min's whereabouts, and he was dead or alive; Thinking about the old mother and brother at home, I care about myself; went straight back to his hometown in Fuzhou.
After Zhe Yuzhong returned to his hometown in Fuzhou, his brother Zhe Yuqing fell ill, and he presided over the daily affairs of Zhefu.
At this time, Zhi Yuzhong was meditating and reading in the hall, and suddenly heard the door curfew coming; Said that high-ranking officials of the imperial court came to visit.
Zhi Yuzhong quickly rushed to the gate with a few family members, and Li Fang and the seven people were already waiting in the reception hall.
Zhi Yuzhong walked into the reception hall and reported his name, and saw that it was Li Fang, the right prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, Lu Mengzheng, the governor of the Privy Council, Zhang Qixian, the right counselor, Lu Duan, the left counselor, Kou Zhun, the eunuch Zhou Huaizheng, the Dingyuan general Yang Heyi, the head of the forbidden army Yang Linyu and 100 forbidden soldiers; Hurriedly bowed and respectfully invited in.
Yang Heyi stood up and shouted: "Is it General Zhe's brother Yuzhong?" ”
Yang Yiyi's shout alarmed the four, and Zhi Yuzhong looked back and saw that it was Yang Heyi, the head of Wen Tongxiao, the magistrate of Shiquan County; Surprised, he stepped forward and grabbed his hand and said, "Xiao is a broken Yuzhong!" Are you Brother Yang? How did you come to Fuzhou? ”
The doubts in Yang Yiyi's heart have not been resolved, he knows that Zhi Yuzhong died in the poisonous fire of the demon monk Weng Lianlu in Toad Mountain, but the figure of Zhi Yuzhong actually appeared in the Northland Prefecture Folding Mansion......
Li Fang, Lu Mengzheng, Zhang Qixian, Lu Duan, Kou Zhun, Zhou Huaizheng, and Yang Linyu were surprised when they saw that Yang Yiyi knew Zhe Yuzhong, and they all asked what was going on.
Zhe Yuzhong bowed and respectfully invited everyone to speak in the back hall.
Li Fang and his entourage, led by Zhe Yuzhong, walked into the back hall of Zhefu Mansion and immediately asked people to arrange a banquet.
More than 100 people sat around more than a dozen tables, drank three rounds, and served five flavors on the dishes.
"The last general will fight together in Toad Mountain to rescue Liu Min and the demon monk Weng Lianlu!" Zhi Yuzhong said eloquently: "Weng Lian Luqi has a magic wand in his hand called the Seven Clam Zen Staff, and there are seven poisonous toads on the Seven Clam Zen Staff; The blue flame that erupted from his mouth was called the toad essence fire, which was extracted by Weng Lian Luqi from the essence of tens of thousands of toads and trained to incinerate the boulder. ”。
Yang Yiyi picked up Zhe Yuzhong's words, and said urgently: "The information we received at that time is that General Zhe was devoured by Weng Lianlu's toad essence fire!" ”
Zhi Yuzhong laughed loudly: "Things in the world are so weird, Xiao Ke felt that he couldn't live at that time; But somehow he fell into the abyss next to him, and he ate wild fruits, drank water, and hunted rabbits and pheasants in the abyss...... After walking for several months, he actually came to the Xuanji Cave where he had cultivated before, and it was the Xuanji Cave Master and the Black Stagecoach General who healed Xiao Ke's injuries......"
