Three hundred miles to the west of Fushi County, is Gyeongju, Gyeongju borders with Western Xia, as an important place for border guarding, perennial wars, compared with Fushi County where the people live and work in peace and contentment, it is simply a heaven and earth, a charcoal purgatory.

However, the situation has improved in recent years, and because General Zhang Qi stuck to the border defense and repelled the Western Xia invaders several times, the Western Xia king's attitude towards the border defense of the Song Dynasty finally began to become cautious.

And after the death of Xia Jingzong Li Yuanhao, the Western Xia also fell into the dictatorship of the mother party, and the power of the government was in the hands of the emperor's queen mother and the mother party, and the entire Western Xia was completely caught in political contradictions, so it had no intention of offending the Northern Song Dynasty, and Gyeongju also got a rare opportunity to recuperate.

After General Zhang Qi, the transit envoy of the Chengdu Road from Fuzhou, returned to his hometown, Song Huizong sent his own son, Zhao Ta, the king of Gon, to take charge of the affairs of Gyeongju and the border passes.

As the biological son of the emperor of the current dynasty, but was sent to this poor mountain and bad water, war and chaos in the land, the king of Gon Zhao Ta can not be said to be pitiful, according to legend, Song Huizong is because Zhao Ta was born with a strange and ugly appearance, this is not the emperor's favor, Song Huizong is such a genius, how can he allow a crown without hair, eyebrows, thin face and no neck of the ugly child dangling in front of him all day long? Therefore, he named Zhao Huan, the eldest son of that talent, as the king of Ding, and established him as the prince, and casually gave the ugly second son Zhao Ta the title of King Gong, and kicked him to the side - Gyeongju.

To rest on ordinary people and be treated so unfairly, Zhao Ta may have given up on himself and complained all day long, but as the king of Gon is not, since he called Gyeongju, he has not slacked off for a minute, and after bowing down to inspect the big and small things in Gyeongju and finding problems, he immediately carried out a series of measures.

The first is to formulate a policy of benefiting the people, encourage the common people to open a business, do business, for a few poor households with craftsmanship, King Gon even opened a silver vault, and took the official money out to encourage the people to do business, in order to be self-sufficient; Another is to reduce the annual tribute of peasant households, in view of the special situation of Gyeongju after the war, King Gon has repeatedly asked his father to reduce the annual tribute of Gyeongju Mansion, Song Huizong thought that Zhao Ta wanted to collect wealth for his own use, out of his inner guilt for his own son who was assigned to the frontier, and agreed; The third is to open up studies extensively, and even carry out military classes in the army, so that those illiterate big-headed soldiers can take advantage of this short period of peace to read and read.

In just a year and a half, Gyeongju, which was dying because of the war, was governed by King Gong with great success, and the people who wanted to flee and leave this small town stayed one after another.

Gyeongju began to grow, and the reputation of King Gon spread farther and farther, and people said, "Jangjeeong is in Gyeongju, and King Gon is in Gyeongju." ”

But the good times didn't last long, seeing that the son who was assigned to the frontier could become bigger and bigger, Song Huizong's heart began to become unstable, he began to worry that Zhao Ta's power would become bigger and bigger, and finally because he complained that he had expelled him from the court in the early years and raised troops to resist, he set up another court and became the second Western Xia Kingdom, so he began to find a way to weaken Zhao Ta's strength.

The words are divided into two ends, and Kuang He, who hastily buried his father and wife, took advantage of the dark moon and high wind, and was going to get up and go to Gyeongju to join the army, but this era is not like modern times, he can locate it in real time by taking out his mobile phone, and he is not familiar with the intertwined roads in front of him, how can he know which direction Gyeongju is in, Kuanghe can only wander on the streets of Fushi County, and when he sees a few night wanderers, he casually asks which direction Gyeongju is.

But at this time, who was still walking on the street, where were there normal people, either they were drinking wine putty on the ground, or they were crazy with nonsense, just when Kuang He was at a loss, a familiar voice asked faintly behind him: "Young man, do you want to go to Gyeongju?" ”

Kuang He turned around and looked, it turned out to be the warlock of the rivers and lakes who was knocked to the ground by him by Shangyin Lake during the day, and saw that the old man was originally a pair of cross-eyed, coupled with that flattering expression, under the background of this dark night, there was a little more weird look.

Kuang He raised his two sandbag-sized fists to see, after all, he had just buried two people who died inexplicably in front of him, and he was still a little frightened, for fear that something strange would find him: "What? Are you coming for revenge? Don't mess with me, you stinky fortune teller, I'll kill you if you provoke me. ”

The old man waved his hand: "Young man, don't be so angry, how can I, a bad old man, drip you a sturdy guy?" I'm here to see if you've broken through the dragon rush and if you're about to do something big, I'm just here to show you the way. ”

Kuang He unloaded his heart but did not put down his fist: "What? Do you know where Gyeongju is? ”

The old man nodded: "Of course, and I also know that you are about to do a great favor to the king of Gyeongju Mansion." ”

"King Gon?" Kuang He searched for this name with his head, and it didn't seem to mention this name in his history textbook, but it's no wonder that Kuang He didn't know that in a high school history textbook, how could he summarize 5,000 years of China clearly, and it was inevitable that there were layers of excerpts when narrating, and only talked about those main historical facts.

"What? You don't even know King Gong, and you still want to join the Pingxi Army? Then I advise you not to go. Seeing that the hairy boy who was already covered in fine skin and tender flesh, and even the famous King Gon did not know, the old man was very surprised, and even a little angry, and thought that he was dizzy and looked at the wrong person.

Kuang He has never liked to be looked down upon, tilted his head, and squinted at the old man: "I don't know if King Gon is concerned about your, you just tell me where Gyeongju is, and the rest has nothing to do with you." ”

The old man smiled, did not directly answer Kuang He's question, but interjected: "Young man, don't you want to know, can you see at a glance that you are a handsome talent when I ask something?" ”

Kuang He pursed his lips: "Cheating money, which of you charlatans is not for the three copper plates in my pocket?" ”

The old man tightened his tattered clothes, and didn't refute Kuang He's words: "I said that I am Jiang Jing, the owner of the second village of Huangmen Mountain, do you believe it?" ”

Kuanghe didn't even know about Gyeongju, let alone Huangmen Mountain, and Kuanghe, who had always been straight, shook his head.

The old man sighed, and said unhurriedly and slowly: "It's no wonder that you don't know, our small sect is indeed little known in the rivers and lakes, but I, Jiang Jing, can also be regarded as a serious Pu Huangti cultivator in Fengtuo Mountain, and seeing clearly the three tribulations and six tribulations of life is a piece of cake for me, just during the day by Shangyin Lake, I clearly saw a prison lock jade dragon trapped on your heavenly spirit cover, the jade dragon is exhaling, looking like he is trying to break free from captivity, I guess, you kid must have a big catastrophe, if you rush over, You heavenly spirit cover the jade dragon can break free from the prison locks, soar the world, if you don't break through, it is dead and there is no place to be buried, I just want to tell you how to break this catastrophe, you kid overturned me to the ground, and kicked me, poor old Tao sixty seven, kicked by you like this, now this lower abdomen is still faintly painful. ”

Looking at what the old man said had a nose and eyes, Kuang He couldn't help but think to himself, "Could it be that this old guy really has any ability?" Could it be that these ancient people are really different from modern people, and there are some immortal methods? ”

In line with the idea that he would rather believe that he has something to believe or not, Kuang He accompanied him with a smiling face, if he could still see some strange magic on this trip, it would be like winning the lottery for him: "Is the Heavenly Master really a real person in contemporary times?" It's disrespectful and disrespectful to see a dragon on my head. ”

The old Taoist priest named Jiang Jing patted the dust on his body and began to put up a stand: "It's okay, as long as you don't call me a charlatan." ”

Kuang He continued to laugh and said, "I'm sorry Heavenly Master, then you see, did I break through the dragon rush you said?" ”

Jiang Jing's eyebrows fluttered and danced loudly: "Of course you broke through, your strength during the day is comparable to the strength of the yellow scarf, and the people of Shijun have seen it, I can tell you, it is a white reckless person who has practiced for a hundred years, ordinary people have met it, it is a dead word, but you can still compete with it, it is enough to show that the strength in your body is no longer ordinary people." Hey, by the way, I want to ask you where you got that white recklessness? It's a rarity, and you can't just let it go. ”

Kuang He patted his stomach: "I'll eat it." ”

The old Taoist priest was shocked: "What? You ate it? "Although the white python is still a mortal fetus, it has been practicing for a hundred years, and it has long been surrounded by demonic energy, not to mention eating, even if you smell the stomach breath of the snake, it will enter the body, and if you don't get it, you will lose your life.

But the young man in front of him who claimed to have eaten Bai Mang was still intact, and the ulcers on his body had recovered as before, so the old Taoist priest had no choice but to say: "The gods descended from the sky, and it was really not that I could see it at a glance." ”

He turned around and said to Kuang He: "Han Shizhong, it seems that you are really destined to become a god general, and this is fate." ”

Kuang He hurriedly corrected with a weak heart: "My name is not Han Shizhong, my name is Kuang He." ”

The old Taoist priest pinched his fingers and thought to himself: "Could it be that I miscalculated, but the people who watched the excitement on the street during the day called this young man Han Shizhong." Forget it, who made him a god general? What is the name and what is it? ”

The old Taoist priest smiled and pointed to a small road in the west: "That road leads directly to Gyeongju, half an hour faster than you take the official road." ”

Kuang He still thanked the old Taoist priest respectfully, and then ran to Gyeongju, seeing that the figure was getting shallower and shallower, and finally disappeared into the darkness, the old Taoist priest tightened his ragged clothes again, and laughed in a low voice: "It seems that I, Jiang Jing, have finally been a Bole this time." ”
