Chapter 103 Hitting the Bamboo
Zhu Li was not poisoned, let alone Gu.
He pretended to be sluggish, but in fact he was secretly on guard, quietly preparing to kill him, if he killed this female assassin, Zhou Chenghui and Yanshan Lao Dao, who were highly poisonous, would naturally not be able to escape his blade.
The female assassin who called herself Jia'er, the double dagger slashed through two cold lights, flying over, this little lady looked at the ice and jade, and started to do it, but there was no ambiguity, the ruthless and vicious place was much better than Zhou Chenghui, at least Zhou Chenghui's sword was not fed with poison.
And this little lady of Nanzhao, her dagger is blue, obviously smeared with strange poison.
It's closer, it's closer, Zhu Li is like a python hidden in the dark, he has already prepared a blow, just wait for this little lady to rush over, he will explode, and he will never leave any room for the other party.
But sometimes, people are not as good as heaven, and when they are suffering, difficulties come one after another, making themselves even more embarrassed and struggling desperately; finally had a chance to turn the tables, and the unexpected came.
At this time, in the oblique thorn, a piece of green mang flew and struck in front of Zhu Li, "ding, ding" twice, hitting the double dagger in Jia'er's hand, shocking the little lady Jia'er, like a frightened deer, and retreated back again, with an indescribable panic, looking around, frightened and inexplicable.
I have to say that this little lady's body is good, advancing and retreating like the wind, fast as lightning, a blow was frustrated, and she immediately turned back to defend herself, causing Zhu Li to hold back her strength, which didn't work at all, and almost suffocated internal injuries.
Look at the Nagar lady again, her eyes exposed beyond the veil, suspicious, two daggers upside down, one after the other, looking around very vigilantly.
"Who dares to spoil the good deeds of my Witch God Sect?" After observing for a long time, he still couldn't find any trace of the enemy, and Gar was anxious.
"Hahaha, hahaha" Under the night sky, a burst of laughter came and went, it seemed to be everywhere, and it seemed to be still around, but you searched in every possible way, and you couldn't find the source of the sound.
"Girl, Lao Dao has a friendship with your Witch God Sect, as long as you leave the antidote today, you can leave." The voice is still erratic, but this person calls himself an old Taoist, is he another Taoist priest, Zhu Li secretly wondered, he now has no good impression of the Taoist priest.
Jia'er's face was ugly, until now, she hadn't found out where this person was hiding, and the even more ugly face was the old Taoist priest and Zhou Chenghui from Yanshan.
I thought that there was only one Nanzhao witch in the secret, but I didn't expect that there would be a master, so that the two assassins who came forward to take the lead had a black face, and then blackened, and completely blackened into a cold bread man.
Although Jia'er is unwilling, she is very smart, this person is obviously a big master, she can't even touch the other party's shadow, it can be seen that the other party wants to take her life, so naturally it is not a problem.
After thinking for a moment, he happily put a jade bottle on the snow, and arched his hand: "Senior, the antidote has been placed here, and the junior is leaving." ”
The witch was so happy, but it made the Yanshan Taoist priest and Zhou Chenghui who were poisoned Gu unwilling to move a single bit, who knows if this bottle of antidote is real or fake.
"Girl, don't play tricks with Lao Dao, if the antidote you left behind can't save people, Lao Dao doesn't mind making another move, arresting you and giving it to someone else as a daughter-in-law, you have thought about it carefully." The one in the shadows spoke again.
Hearing this, the witch Jia'er suddenly became a lot more depressed with some cunning eyes, a trace of struggle appeared in her eyes, and she seemed to be unwilling, after thinking about it, she put away the previous jade bottle, took out a jade bottle again, and put it on the snow, as soon as she put it away, she immediately floated away, no longer talking nonsense, and disappeared in the vast sea of snow in a blink of an eye.
As soon as Jia'er left, Yanshan Lao Dao immediately stepped forward, took the jade bottle, poured out a black pill and took it on his head, Zhou Chenghui was no exception, took the jade bottle from Lao Dao's hand, and also took a black pill.
The two of them took the pill and meditated to dissolve the medicinal power, seemingly completely forgetting the existence of Zhu Li.
It's all slow to say, but it's only happening in a few breaths.
As the witch Jia'er retreated, a Taoist suddenly appeared, coming to the humane with a high bun, coarse linen clothes, holding two bamboo boards in one hand and a bamboo branch in the other, Shi Shiran walked to the place where Zhu Li and the three of them were, and said lightly to the Taoist priest of Yanshan: "Who are you?" ”
When the Taoist priest of Yanshan heard this, he opened his eyes, quickly stood up, and arched his sword with his hand: "It is the family teacher, the junior Dong Ningyang, who has thanked the seniors for their help." ”
Facing Dong Ningyang, who looked respectful, this bamboo-holding Taoist priest who looked like he was in his thirties, and if he looked closely, he looked like he was in his fifties, and said angrily: "Hmph, the sea toad himself is old and confused, and I didn't expect the disciples to be taught, and there is no distinction between right and wrong." ”
As soon as he heard that the other party dared to insult his master, Dong Ningyang suddenly had a trace of anger on his face, and said coldly: "Senior, it's okay for you to insult your master, if you dare to insult your family teacher again, even if you know that you are invincible, you have to share life and death with you." ”
"Yo, it's just you, Lao Dao really didn't see it." The bamboo Taoist priest looked disdainful, and then said: "Is the old Taoist wrong, then the old Taoist asks you, why did you come to intercept and kill Zhu Li?" ”
Dong Ningyang looked suspicious, and said loudly: "Zhu Li conspired to rebel and wantonly plundered the Hetao, causing the people to be displaced and their lives ruined, shouldn't he be killed?" ”
"Hmph" the bamboo Taoist snorted coldly: "If there is chaos today, the people are not living, there was Pang Xun rebelling before, coercing the people, and wreaking havoc on the place; Later, Wang Xianzhi rose up, causing chaos in the world and poisoning all directions. ”
"In the court, there are eunuchs such as Tian Lingzi, Liu Jishu, and Wang Zhongxian, who are perverse and cruel to Zhongliang; There are even more Li Guochang and Li Ke in the place who use such Beidi thieves to ravage the common people for the sake of disaster and ravage the common people, these people, why don't you Dong Ningyang go to intercept and kill? ”
As soon as he spoke, Dong Ningyang was speechless and looked gloomy, he was dedicated to cultivating, if it wasn't for the master's order, where would he care about these worldly affairs, not to mention these things, if he didn't listen to the bamboo Taoist priest, he wouldn't know at all.
Looking at Dong Ningyang, who was speechless, he said again: "Zhu Li secretly attacked Hetao, and you Dong Ningyang jumped out as if he was in a hurry, with a face of hoeing traitors for the country and eliminating harm for the people, taking advantage of the danger of others and secretly attacking, is this also what my generation of cultivators did?" ”
Dong Ningyang's mouth moved, but in the end he didn't say anything, his sword was indeed a deliberate sneak attack, facts speak louder than words.
The bamboo Taoist glanced at him and sighed: "Then let me tell you what kind of person this person you are going to intercept and kill." This person started from the grass, wandered in the war, attacked the riotous Shatuo in the north, and recovered the lost Chang'an in the south. ”
"The land of Shuozhou, with a population of less than 30,000 people, has been governed into a prosperous land with a population of more than 100,000 people in more than three years, and even the Han people in the Hetao area do not know how much better their lives are now than under the rule of the party people."
"Now, the displaced people from all over the world are flocking to the Hetao and the land of Shuoyun, such a person, do you still want to intercept and kill him, Lao Dao wants to ask, isn't the sea toad doing this, isn't he old and confused, what is it, he is not afraid of your vein, and your reputation will be ruined for several years?"
How come there are only more than 100,000 people in Shuozhou, holding the words of the old bamboo, it makes Zhu Li, who is standing aside, confused, just the family members and neighbors of the grass army he collected from Chang'an, there are more than 100,000 people, plus the influx of the Quartet displaced people that this Taoist said, more than 200,000 people, there should still be there, why is there only more than 100,000 people now, where did the rest of the population go, Zhu Li was a little puzzled.
Of course, he didn't know about these, and this was also a reasonable thing, he left Shuozhou, it has been nearly a year and a half, Shuozhou is Xiazhou after all, and it can feed more than 100,000 people, which is already up to the sky.
As for the rest of the population, Guo Qizuo settled some in Yunzhou; As well as the original single of the Wu Mourning expedition in the Duhufu, Guo Qizuo has placed some more, and now Shuoyun and other places, belonging to the area of Zhu Li's moderation, the Han population has exceeded 300,000, plus the foreign population, it is more, this is not counting the recent period, the endless stream of displaced people.
"These are the words of the predecessors, how can you be gullible." The Taoist priest's words made Dong Ningyang hesitate, but the master was in his body, and he was unwilling to easily believe the words of the old Taoist who held the bamboo.
"Believe it or not, you just have to go to the land of Yunshuo and have a look, won't you?" The old way doesn't matter.
"But how do you know that the seniors are not deceiving the juniors?"
"Hmph, the old way hits the bamboo, a mouthful of foam, a nail, the reputation of the old way is not comparable to the old cow's nose of the sea toad." Holding the bamboo old way, it should be to hit the bamboo, snort coldly, and proudly authentic.
Hitting bamboo, Dong Ningyang heard this, his brows furrowed even more, this is a senior master who is not inferior to his master, there are two Taoists in Xishu who are very famous, one is the real son Peng Xiao, and the other is He Wuyun, who is hitting the bamboo in front of him.
Many people say that it was the people of the Song Dynasty who hit bamboo, but the relevant records are unknown.
But about Peng Xiao's records, there is a record that he and Zhu Zi are friends, Peng Xiao is a person from the Five Dynasties period, so can it be considered that Zhu Zi is also a person of the Five Generations, as for the people of the Five Dynasties, I will not study it in detail here.
And this person who hits the bamboo is very strange, all the records about him are like depicting immortals, and he should not be a problem to live to be one hundred and eighty years old.
Of course, it is impossible for such a senior master to deceive Dong Ningyang easily, knowing the identity of the other party, Dong Ningyang also understands that as long as this person is here, no matter what he is today, it is impossible for him to kill Zhu Li under this person's nose.
Originally, he thought that hitting the bamboo was just an uneven road to save him, but from his words just now, it can be heard that it doesn't seem to be the case, this person is obviously here for Zhu Li, and he saved himself, mostly with an incense.
