Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Qilin Mountain Deliberations
Yue Fei turned his head and asked Luan Tingyu: "Fourth Senior Brother, who is this?" ”
"He is your fifth senior brother Sun Li." Luan Tingyu said coldly, and seeing that Yue Fei was at a loss, he threw down another sentence: "The master asked me to leave him on the mountain and wait for his old man to come back." With that, he turned around and left.
Yue Fei hurriedly stepped forward to help Sun Li loosen his ties.
Breaking free of the rope, Sun Li turned over and tried to stand up, but with an "oops" sound, he fell to the ground again, and it seemed that he was seriously injured.
Yue Fei hurriedly helped Sun Li up.
Sun Li stood up, let out a long sigh of relief, and asked, "Are you the teacher's closed disciple Yue Fei?" ”
Yue Fei nodded yes. Sun Li asked Yue Fei to help him to Yue Fei's room, and the two slowly walked back to the station.
After entering Yue Fei's room, Sun Li went to bed and fell asleep, ignoring Yue Fei.
Yue Fei had no choice but to put some medicine and wine on the bookcase for Sun Li's own use.
Three days later, Zhou Tong returned to the mountain and saw several apprentices gathered. It's a mixed feeling.
The master and apprentice returned to the room and asked Sun Li. It turned out that Liangshan returned from the southern expedition to Fangla, and the two brothers Sun Li and Sun Xin returned around the whole body, and Wu Yilang returned to Dengzhou. Dengzhou is far away from the capital, and the two brothers Sun Li have lived some stable and comfortable lives. Some time ago, Dengzhou wanted to send Huashigang to Beijing. This flower stone gang is a dragon of the East China Sea made of pure gold, worth 120,000 yuan, which is extremely valuable. Dengzhou Governor Yin appointed Sun Li's son Sun Ping to escort him, and Sun Li asked Sun Xin to go with him for insurance, but something happened anyway. Sun Xin and Sun Ping were also escorted to the capital for dereliction of duty.
Sun Li personally came to visit, and when he arrived at the Daimyo's mansion, he was not welcomed. I just heard that the robbers were on Qilin Mountain, and they were scared away by Zhou Tong, so I went to Qilin Mountain to see what was going on.
When he came up to the mountain and met Luan Tingyu, Sun Li understood. Under the fight between the two, Sun Li was used to living a comfortable life and neglected martial arts, and as a result, he was defeated......
Sun Li knelt down in front of Zhou Tong, wept bitterly, and begged the teacher for forgiveness.
Zhou Tong's face was blue and dark, and he didn't say a word.
Sun Li turned to beg Luan Tingyu for forgiveness.
Luan Tingyu was not a murderous person, but he didn't kill Sun Li on Zhou Tong's face before, but now he looked at it and helped to intercede with Zhou Dong. Zhou Tong breathed a sigh of relief. Let Sun Li go down the mountain to Qilin Village and wait.
Sun Li asked Luan Tingyu for a double gong and went down the mountain.
Zhou Tong saw that Qilin Mountain had changed greatly, praised Luan Tingyu, and asked Yue Fei to call Master Shang Zhiming and Master Chunjiao to discuss matters in the front hall of the new repair.
When everyone arrived, Zhou Tong told everyone about the news he had learned from the Daimyo's Mansion.
It turned out that the gold lord Wanyan Agu attacked the Jin country, and won victories one after another, so he started to destroy the heart of Jin. Wrote a letter to Huizong, the son of Song Tianzi, attacked the north and south, and divided the Liao State. Most of the ministers of the imperial court advocated waiting and seeing, while the imperial master Cai Jing and the privy envoy Tong Guan advocated sending troops to attack Liao and recover the sixteen states of Yanyun. The Emperor of Huizong listened to what Taishi Cai said and sent troops to the Liao State.
Cai Jing, Tong Guan entangled most of the elite troops of the imperial court, known as the army of two million, and marched north.
At the beginning of the war, the Song army made smooth progress, taking several prefectures and counties in succession, but when it reached Yanjing, it was hindered and stagnated.
"Senior Brother Zhiming, what do you think?" Zhou Tong finished talking about the situation and asked Master Zhiming.
"Amitabha!" Master Zhiming sang a Buddha horn and said: "As the poor monks know, in order to achieve long-term peace and stability, the imperial court not only banned the civil army, but also constantly suppressed the military generals. All affairs, big and small, are dominated by civilian officials, and even wars are the same. Military generals fought on the front line, and the merit of victory was supervised by civilian officials, and the military generals were responsible for defeating the guilty, resulting in a sharp decline in military strength. The dismal and weakened combat effectiveness is unbearable to see. Since the founding of Taizu, foreign wars have not tasted victory, which has never been encountered by our Han dynasty in all dynasties. Even the southern Tukou Fangla, the imperial court had to rely on the heroes of Liangshan to finally complete the purge. This attack on Liao, accidentally, let the Jin State take advantage of the situation to go south, and the people of my Song Dynasty were miserable! ”
Zhou Tong and Luan Tingyu glanced at each other and said, "Senior Brother Zhiming is right, Tingyu came back from the north not long ago, and the situation is even worse than Senior Brother Zhiming's conjecture. ”
After speaking, he spread the thirteen drawings drawn by Luan Tingyu on the bookcase, and then explained them.
Although Yue Fei saw these pictures for the second time, he was still very depressed.
"It's more difficult for me to deal with the Jurchens in the Great Song Dynasty than it was in the Han Dynasty." Master Zhiming said: "Back then, Wei Qing and Huo Qu were sick and fought the Huns, relying on strong crossbows and good horses. Forcibly scattered and disabled the Hun army. And now the strong crossbow still exists, but there is no good horse. Unless the imperial court can change its mind, let the people be free, and loosen the restrictions on the military generals, otherwise our Han people will be reduced to foreign subjects and be ripped off at will......"
Zhou Tong said: "Having said that, God will always leave a glimmer of life for people. In any case, we must first seek self-protection and see if we can find a way out. ”
Ladies and gentlemen, the history of Middle-earth for more than 100 years basically follows the path of dialogue between Master Zhiming and Zhou Dong. Although Yue Fei dealt a heavy blow to the Jin State and gave the Southern Song Dynasty a hundred and fifty years of respite, it was eventually annexed by the Yuan Dynasty. That's an afterword.
After discussion, everyone decided to form an army on their own to protect themselves. Luan Tingyu was responsible for purchasing materials, Master Zhiming and Master Chunjiao were responsible for forging equipment and guarding the cottage, Yue Fei was responsible for recruiting and training troops back to Qilin Village, and Zhou Tong was responsible for overall planning. Soon, Qilin Mountain became lively.
A few days later, Zhou Tong and Yue Fei returned to Qilin Village, and Sun Li begged Zhou Tong to help rescue Sun Xin and Sun Ping. Zhou Tong had no choice but to bring another thousand taels of gold to the Daimyo's Mansion to find Lord Liang Zhongshu. Sure enough, money can make ghosts grind, coupled with troubled times, Zhou Dong, the first person in the world, is getting better and better, and in less than two months, Sun Xin and Sun Ping also returned to Qilin Village.
Zhou Tong thought that he had been famous for most of his life, and now for the sake of his apprentices, he also had to use those corrupt official methods. I can only sigh to myself.
Half a year later, suddenly, Master Zhiming, Master Chunjiao and Miss Nie Chunxiao returned to Qilin Village, accompanied by several middle-aged Taoists. It turned out that Yue Fei had cultivated to the point where water and fire were both good, the toad was golden, and the wisdom was like the bright moon in the sky, so it was time to tie the golden pill. Zhou Tong informed the elders of Huashan to go to Qilin Village to give Yue Fei the empowerment and transmission of gong. And Master Zhiming, Master Chunjiao and others are responsible for protecting the Dharma and not letting people interfere.
Zhou Tong, Yue Fei and the three elders entered the Ah Gong House, and Master Zhiming, Master Chunjiao, Luan Tingyu and Sun Li stood outside the house separately and did not let people approach. Miss Nie was in a hurry in the distance.
It has always been the most important thing for a cultivator, and the process is also the most dangerous, if you are not careful, you may go mad, or even die, which is ten million times more difficult than a woman's childbirth. Especially the innate Great Dan like Yue Fei, who has no personnel, is even more difficult. Although Yue Fei is blessed with the support of Huashan faction, he must be extremely careful.
Miss Nie has known Yue Fei for more than half a year, and the two are both martial arts practitioners, with similar interests, and they have long been heart-to-heart. Although he has not yet made a private decision for life, he is already a non-secretary who does not marry, and a non-monarch who does not marry. Yue Fei was in such a dangerous situation, and Miss Nie was naturally very anxious.
