Zhao Tingzhen and Qiu Zhongshu are indeed unable to distinguish between the various sects of Taoism. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the past, Taoism was relatively weak, and its activities were mainly concentrated in the south. In the Central Plains, the influence of Longhu Mountain was extremely weak, and there were almost no gates north of the Huanghe River.

In addition, in recent years, the rise of the Quanqing sect, the Quanqing doctrine has developed extremely rapidly in the north. Although it encountered the setback of almost annihilating the faction during the period, but now with the support of the barbarian army, it has revived, and the development is even more rapid.

And the Quanqing Daoist can't marry a wife, and it is precisely because of this that when they saw this little white Daoist, they subconsciously thought that he was the same as the Quanqing Daoist.

At this moment, when the little white Taoist said this, they reacted suddenly...... Yes, it seems that Taoist priests in the south can marry wives and have children?

Somehow, Zhao Tingzhen's face turned red all of a sudden, and Qiu Zhongshu became more and more gloomy.

The convoy continued to move forward, and the atmosphere that followed became a little awkward. Along the way, Zhao Tingzhen, who was still talking and laughing with the young Taoist priest, suddenly became a lot more restrained, and Qiu Zhongshu's face became more and more ugly.

The whole journey became stuffy.

Later that day, they entered the new Golden City.

Xinjincheng is a relatively famous big city in Luzhou, because it was taken by the barbarian soldiers without blood, it is still generally intact, and it was not slaughtered by the barbarian army afterwards. Unlike Lu Cheng, on the day the city was broken, nearly 10,000 people were killed by the barbarian army.

Qilifeng's convoy lived in a house in the east of the city, the owner of this house is called Zhao Mu, who is Zhao Tingzhen's uncle, relying on Qilifeng's support to do some business in the new Golden City, which can be regarded as Qilifeng's stronghold in the new Golden City.

Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, many families have hung wormwood leaves and other insect repellent things at the door, and the stalls in the streets and alleys have also begun to sell realgar wine.

That night, after Ningjiang took a bath, because the house was stuffy, he stepped out of the house, went out for a walk, and suddenly heard the sound of brushing in the courtyard on the other side. He waved the dust and strolled away, only to see two lanterns hanging under the eaves in front of him.

On the field, Zhao Tingzhen, who was dressed in white with arrow sleeves, turned around, and several flying knives came out in response, grabbing and grabbing, all of which hit the target in the distance. And what is quite wonderful is that none of these flying knives are straight, and all of them draw an almost semicircular trajectory in the air, which is mysterious and unpredictable.

He stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss Zhen is really good at flying knives!" ”

Seeing him coming, Zhao Tingzhen stood under the lamp, brushed the hair in his ear embarrassedly, and said, "Let the Taoist see and laugh!" ”

Ning Jiang groaned slightly, looking at the flying knives that were obviously flying out from different directions, but were inserted into the same target in the distance, and suddenly said: "Miss Zhen's set of flying knife techniques should not be taught by Ling Zun. I don't know what Miss Zhen has to do with the well-known 'empty sorrow' Qiushui recommendation on the rivers and lakes? ”

"'Empty mourning' Qiushui recommended?" Zhao Tingzhen's eyes widened, "I have indeed heard the name of this martial arts woman, she was already a grandmaster-level figure who shocked the rivers and lakes before the Xuanqi Dasheng, but I have never seen her." ”

Ning Jiang was surprised: "Although I have never seen her, I can more or less recognize it, your set of flying knife techniques is clearly passed down by 'Empty Sorrow', how can you not recognize her?" ”

Zhao Tingzhen said thoughtfully: "This set of flying knife techniques was taught to me by a woman I met by chance when I was a child. At that time, I was playing in the forest with some friends, and I saw a strange woman sitting alone by the river, looking down in contemplation, looking sad, and I didn't know what she was thinking. We played there all day, and she sat there all day. The other children said she was a weirdo, but I thought, how can she stand it if she sits all the time and doesn't eat anything? So he ran home and brought her some food. In the days that followed, she sat like that all the time, and I brought her food every day, and occasionally talked to her. Until one day, she asked me if I wanted to learn skills? I nodded, and she taught me how to throw knives, and I never saw her again......"

looked at Xiaobai Daoren in surprise: "Could it be that what I met is really the 'empty sorrow' Qiushui recommendation?" Later, although I also inquired about her origin many times, I never saw her. My father said that the set of knife techniques I learned was far better than the family heirloom that he could teach me, and the person who taught me the knife technique must be a strange person on the rivers and lakes. But who she is, I never know. ”

Ning Jiang said with a smile: "Although Poor Dao doesn't know martial arts, she still has this bit of eyesight, listening to you say this, most of the people who taught you the art of flying knives are her." ”

Zhao Tingzhen said: "However, Qiushui is recommended on the rivers and lakes, isn't he a famous piano master?" Haven't heard of her using throwing knives? ”

Ning Jiang smiled and said: "Count the empty mourning autumn water recommendation, nine days and the knife will fall into the red dust!" Since it is known as the 'Nine Heavens and Knife', why can't she use a knife? It's just that the technique of flying knives is a stunt before she has advanced to the grandmaster, and the moment she stepped into the grandmaster level, she has already got the knife and forgot the knife. Well, Qiu Shui recommended to become a grandmaster, famous all over the world, exactly ten years ago, if I guessed correctly, when you met her, it was a critical period when she was only one line away from a grandmaster-level master, she passed her Nine Heavens and Knife to you, and the moment you learned her knife technique, she had already forgotten her flying knife. Since then, she has stopped using knives, but at the same time, her knives are everywhere. ”

continued: "It's normal that you can't find out her origin, just because, before you met her, she was just a first-class master, plus she is low-key, and there are naturally not many people who know about her in the rivers and lakes." Before the Xuanqi Dasheng, I asked you what first-class masters there were in Jiangnan or other states, I'm afraid you couldn't tell, right? And after she left, she had already stepped into the grandmaster level, even if she didn't do anything, a grandmaster-level master, in that era, it was difficult to become famous. It's just that she doesn't use throwing knives anymore, so you know, naturally there is only the 'empty mourning' who uses the piano. ”

Zhao Tingzhen looked up at the night sky, and yearned: "It's actually like this?" Get the knife and forget the knife, and step into the grandmaster at the moment of passing the knife...... Such a strange thing is really mysterious. ”

Ning Jiang said: "Although now that the Xuan Qi is flourishing, many people are able to have the strength that can only be achieved at the previous Grandmaster level, but those who relied on their own powerful cultivation and amazing comprehension to break through before the Xuan Qi are still not comparable to others after all. And with the emergence of the Xuanqi Dasheng and the Nine Yin True Scripture, the top masters who first stepped into the sect saint level must also be among these people. ”

Zhao Tingzhen looked at her, and the waves flickered: "Dao Chief, you obviously haven't seen Qiu Shui, but you can deduce such a mysterious truth, with your ability, if you practice martial arts, I am afraid that you will not lose to anyone in this world, why do you only study medicine and not practice martial arts?" ”

The young Taoist put his left hand behind his back, waved it with his hand, put it on his arm, and said with a smile: "Poor Dao is a person who learns the Tao. Lao Tzu Youyun: Good is like water! If you don't fight under the water conservancy, since you don't fight, what's the use of learning martial arts? ”

Zhao Tingzhen said: "But now this world is different from the past, even if you don't fight, others will come to fight with you, but what is good then?" ”

The young Taoist looked up at the sky and said leisurely: "The human heart is in danger, and the Taoist heart is only small!" Although I don't fight, the world can't fight with me! ”

In the distance, in a dim corner, an unbearable sound came from the ear.

After a while, a woman's vicious voice sounded: "I originally wanted to teach them some lessons, but I didn't expect to be ruined by the Taoist priest who was in the way." ”

Immediately afterwards, a man's voice spoke: "That Taoist priest from the south was able to break my blood snake?" Hehe, I want to see what he is capable of. ”

The woman said: "Although the Taoist priest hates it, it is very easy to harm him, I heard that he doesn't know martial arts at all, he just takes two little girls, and relies on his pretty good medical skills to go to the rivers and lakes, and wants to kill him, but it is like killing chickens and slaughtering sheep." Hmph, when I finish dealing with Zhao Tingzhen's stinky girl, I'll go to him to settle accounts. ”

The man said, "If you want to deal with that girl, it's not easy for you?" Since you designed her to perform in front of Lord Liuman's banquet, how much preparation can she have in such a short time? When she doesn't do well, she will find an excuse to say that she can't see the county lord clearly, kill her, and then lead the disaster to Qilifeng. ”

The woman said, "You don't know about this." That girl didn't move around much on the rivers and lakes, and her strength was not very strong, but her flying knife skills did have a hand, and if it was just used for performance, it would be difficult for people to make excuses. ”

"What great skills can a strong family in a place have? I remember you said that even her father only stepped into the grandmaster after the Xuanqi was in full bloom, right? ”

"Her flying knife is not a family tradition at all, and the woman who taught her flying knives is quite mysterious. According to my investigation afterwards, it is very likely that the person who taught her flying knives when she was young was Qiu Shui. I heard that before Qiu Shuijian stepped into the grandmaster, she used a flying knife, although in the past ten years, she has never used it again, but carefully calculated, when she began to abandon the knife and use the piano, it was almost the time when Zhao Tingzhen's girl learned to fly the knife. ”

"Hehe, even if that girl's flying knife has a hand, but with your ability, what is the difficulty of making her ugly?"

"Ha, this one too!"

After that, foul language continued to be heard. Looking out of the window, through the window grille, inside, in the flickering candlelight, there is a woman's figure kneeling on the ground, swaying back and forth, and the man behind him is standing, with two pythons dancing on his arms......

***

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhao Tingzhen was busy.

Although he was forced to perform at the main banquet of Liuman County, he naturally couldn't deal with it hastily, and he had to ask someone to help design which props to use and how to arrange the scene.

In addition, it was to find someone to help build the line, during which she was looking for relationships and favors, and in the afternoon, she finally met Diao Lixiang, one of the five Jiao of Youhuang.

Diao Lixiang's age is not too much different from Ying Kaixiao, in the hot weather, lying on a jade bed, a servant knelt down at the head of her bed, and opened the treasure chest. I saw her casually take out the jade beads in the box, play with them carefully, and glanced at Zhao Tingzhen, who was standing at the table with her hands tied, and said lightly: "It turns out that you are the daughter of the Lord of Qili Fengfeng?" Hmm, Qilifeng and I didn't have much friendship in the past, so where could I accept your father's gift for no reason? You can take these things back, right? ”

Zhao Tingzhen hurriedly said: "Madam, your name of 'jade sleeves with incense', who doesn't know it on the rivers and lakes?" I have always looked up to Mrs. Madame's majesty, this small gift, not a tribute, but also Mrs. smile. ”

Diao Lixiang waved his hand: "No need to say more, take it back." Come on, send off guests. ”

The servant covered the treasure chest and held it back in front of Zhao Tingzhen. Zhao Tingzhen couldn't, so she had to put away the treasure chest and retreat.

As soon as she left, Diao Lixiang said, "Call Mo Steward." ”

After a while, a fat man with a fat belly came to her house. Diao Lixiang asked: "Qilifeng and I have always had nothing to do with it, so good, why did you give me a gift?" ”

As soon as Mo Guan heard this, he knew that Madame was still quite moved by the gold, silver and jewelry sent by Qilifeng, otherwise she would not have called him for questioning, so she said: "Madame doesn't know, Ying Kaixiao's woman, although she was born in Qilifeng and is the sister of Qilifeng's three-bladed master, has an enmity with Qilifeng. A few days ago, the beloved son of the three fronts of Qili Feng was seriously ill for no reason, and it was probably Ying Kaixiao's victim. Later, the child was cured by a Taoist priest invited by Zhao Tingzhen, Ying Kaixiao probably held a grudge, and used the excuse of letting Zhao Tingzhen perform at the county lord's banquet, but in fact, I am afraid that he wanted to take the opportunity to harm Zhao Tingzhen. Qilifeng found you, Mrs., probably hoping to use your relationship with the county lord to protect Zhao Tingzhen and Qilifeng. ”

"So that's it?" Diao Lixiang hesitated, "It's just that now that the gods and the Falcon want to uproot these unstable factors in the north of the Huanghe River step by step, although those lake bandits in Yinze bear the brunt, but Qilifeng and these people will probably not be left alone in the future." You should have heard about Cao Ziteng, the second front master of Qili Feng, who once secretly joined the thief soldiers who resisted the heavenly soldiers. Later, the thieves were defeated, he was outnumbered, and after being captured, people recognized him. Originally, he was going to ask Qili Feng to blame, but Zhao Guipan, the master of Qili Feng, rushed thousands of miles to arrive, cut off Cao Ziteng's arm with his own hands in prison, and cut off one of his own arms, vowing that Qili Feng would never betray the heavenly soldiers, so he saved Cao Ziteng. At that time, it was still the tiger general Sang Han under the Leopard Throne who managed Luzhou, and Sang Han was also a straight man, and Qili Feng was able to save it, largely because of him. As for now, the main thing is replaced by Da Shuai, who knows if Da Shuai will attack Qili Feng next? ”

Steward Mo had already secretly accepted Zhao Tingzhen's gold and silver, and he smiled and said, "Madam, one thing is one thing." Not to mention where Qilifeng still dares to resist now? Even if something happens to them, what does it have to do with us? How much money you have, how much you do. This time, they came to Mrs. You, just to let Mrs. protect Zhao Tingzhen from being killed by Ying Kaixiao in the past few days. I think this time, Zhao Guipan did spend a lot of money in order to protect his daughter, and that big box was all good goods. But it's just to protect her daughter for a few days, it's not a big deal, and when the county lord's banquet is over, Zhao Tingzhen leaves Xinjincheng, and the rest of the matter naturally has nothing to do with us, madam, with your friendship with the county lord, it's nothing more than a few words of help, where is it? ”

continued: "Besides, Ying Kaixiao and her brother and sister are against each other, everyone knows that now Qili Feng has found a relationship with his wife. Whether you make this money or not, in fact, it doesn't matter, it's just spread out, I know, saying that Mrs. just doesn't look down on this thing, I don't know, I'm afraid I think Mrs. You're afraid of Ying Kaixiao. ”
