Brocade silk is a silk book. The so-called silk book is a form of book in which words and images are written and painted on silk fabrics. Before the invention of paper, silk script was a form of book used at the same time as bamboo slips. In some works of the pre-Qin period, bamboo slips and silk scripts are often mentioned together, indicating that silk was already a major material for writing at that time.

In ancient times, there were also people who specifically recorded some important things in silk books. This is because silk books are more preserved than paper.

Qin Xuan frowned slightly when he heard Li Qingrui say brocade, and then hurriedly stepped forward. took the brocade silk from Li Qingrui's hand and took a general look. There were about a dozen copies of brocade silk, and after combining all the brocade silks, Qin Xuan came to a conclusion, a conclusion that surprised Qin Xuan a little.

It turned out that Liu Banxian's original name was Liu Qinghua, and his ancestors were indeed descendants of Liu Bang, that is to say, Liu Banxian was still a descendant of the royal family. As for the crazy old man, as Qin Xuan expected, it was Liu Banxian's father, originally Liu Pinglai.

In the melee of the Sui and Tang dynasties, Liu Pinglai's entire family was in tatters, and Liu Pinglai was even more disturbed by the war. Unfortunately, in a war, the Liu family was destroyed. Liu Pinglai was fortunate in misfortune, he escaped the bandit-like official army, came to Mangdang Mountain, and worshiped Qingyuanmen.

Qingyuanmen was not bad at that time, and the head of the sect was Qingyuan Daochang, that is, Ma Min's uncle Zu Ningdun Daochang. Liu Pinglai escaped the war and came to Qingyuanmen, he was scarred and heartbroken, and Ningdun Daoist was kind-hearted, and when he saw Liu Pinglai, who was injured, he suddenly became kind, so he accepted him as a registered disciple.

Registered disciples are not welcomed in Qingyuanmen, where all sects have introductory disciples and registered disciples, and registered disciples in Qingyuanmen are not allowed to accept disciples. When Liu Pinglai was in Qingyuanmen, he was quite honest at first, and he knew that later, inadvertently, from the family's ancestral brocade silk, he learned that the ancestor Liu Bang had a secret room in Mangdang Mountain. After the treasure is attached, it is often found in Mangdang Mountain.

The hard work paid off, and after years of searching, Liu Pinglai found the secret room in Fengxize, Mangdang Mountain. Speaking of which, there is also a story. That day, Liu Ping came to Fengxize, and he was just a little thirsty and ready to drink some water. Unexpectedly, I met two groups of people fighting.

Liu Pinglai hid in a thorn and watched the battle secretly. Two groups of people fighting. It turned out to be because of a woman. After half a day of killing, the two groups of people are considered to have died together, except for the woman, all the others are about to die.

Just when Liu Ping wanted to come forward to help, a big man got up slowly. This man is such a slippery head, he is actually playing dead. When the man got up, he triumphantly wanted to defile the woman. Listen to the strong man's wicked laughter and the woman's pleading. The true character of a man in Liu Pinglai's heart suddenly rose. The reason for his rise is that his parents and sisters were also tortured to death by the official army at that time.

Liu Pinglai also learned martial arts in Qingyuanmen for a period of time, with mental arithmetic or unintentional, and the other party was injured, Liu Pinglai finally rescued the woman. After that, things are much simpler. Liu Pinglai ran to the lake to wash his wounds. Just like Qin Xuan, he discovered the secret of the bottom of the lake.

That woman can be regarded as the first to get out of the wolf's den and then into the tiger's mouth, and was brought here by Liu Pinglai, and then gave birth to a son to Liu Pinglai, who is Liu Banxian. Since Liu Pinglai often came to take care of the woman and Liu Banxian. I had to leave the division secretly, so I became a traitor to Qingyuanmen, speaking of which. Liu Pinglai can be regarded as a little wronged.

When Liu Banxian was eight years old, the woman unfortunately died, Liu Pinglai took his son back to Qingyuanmen, because he could not accept apprentices, so he let Liu Banxian worship under the door of Qingyuan Daochang's senior brother Qingling Daochang, and then Qingling Daoist died, Liu Banxian learned the truth of the matter, and called Liu Pinglai as a master in front of outsiders. This is also because the ancients often said that one person is a teacher and a father for life.

As for the little Taoist priest on the side, this is Liu Banxian's son. The three ancestors and grandchildren have been searching for decades in this secret room, but they have not been able to find the treasure in the secret room.

After reading these records, Qin Xuan didn't know what it was like in his heart. He smiled bitterly a few times and said, "Qingrui, according to the brocade silk, there should be a treasure here!" Shall we go back first, or shall we see if we can find the treasure? ”

Li Qingrui hesitated for a long time and said: "Childe, you have an injury on your shoulder, why don't we go back to Qingyuan Gate first, now, Zhenjing is dead, it's time to exterminate the Hidden Vision!" ”

It's good not to mention the Hidden View, but when he heard this, Qin Xuan couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and said, "That's right, Qingrui, you look for it again, why is there no record of Liu Banxian and the Hidden View here?" ”

When Li Qingrui heard this, he was also a little puzzled, frowned, and said casually: "Childe, this is the place of Huikong, will there be a record of Liu Banxian and the old department in the Hidden Temple?" ”

"I don't know this, let's go back to Qingyuanmen first, you will go to Mangxian to find Honglin in a while, leave one hundred thousand Niu Wei to watch my family, and bring four hundred thousand Niu Wei to Qingyuan Gate to look for me!"

"Got it, Childe!" Li Qingrui hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "However, the people of the Hidden Meditation have heard that there are nearly a thousand Taoist priests, is it a little inappropriate to send only four hundred thousand thousand Niu Guards?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Xuan smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said, "No, not a lot!" Although there are nearly 1,000 Taoist priests in the Hidden Temple, however, there should not be many of them who will really work hard for Liu Banxian, and when the time comes, they can directly rush into the Taoist Temple and explain to the Taoist priests in the Taoist Temple that Liu Banxian is suspected of rebellion, only arresting the head of the thief, and will not implicate the innocent, I believe that there will be fewer obstacles! ”

Li Qingrui thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Got it, Childe!" The wound on your shoulder is fine, you will go out in a while, but you will be soaked, if it is infected, it will not be good! ”

"It's okay, the smell here is a little unpleasant, I don't want to stay here a little longer!" After speaking, Qin Xuan prepared to walk outside.

Li Qingrui saw that Qin Xuan was leaving, and said hurriedly: "Wait, son, what should I do with this little Taoist?" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he stopped, looked back at the little Taoist priest a few times, didn't know what to think, and said directly: "Find a way to wake him up, and then take him back together!" ”

"Yes!" Li Qingrui simply understood a word, then turned around and walked towards the little Taoist, and stretched out his hand to directly pinch the little Taoist's people. After a while, the little Taoist priest snorted softly a few times and woke up. Seeing that Li Qingrui was a little scared, he trembled and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Li Qingrui said coldly: "What does you have to do with Zhenjing, a little Taoist?" ”

The little Taoist priest caught a glimpse of Liu Banxian and the old man who were already dead on the side. Crying, "You two bad people, why did you kill my father and grandfather? ”

Li Qingrui smiled slightly: "This ...... What do you want me to say, your father and your grandfather are to blame, what can I do? ”

At the same time, the little Taoist priest suddenly launched an attack on Li Qingrui, and a fist that was not very powerful hit Li Qingrui's cheek. Seeing this, Li Qingrui dodged back directly, and then shook his head to the side, dodging the fist of the little Taoist. "Little one. You can't beat me! ”

The little Taoist priest didn't seem to be rich, so he raised his leg and kicked at Li Qingrui's crotch. "If you can't beat it, it's going to be big, I must avenge my grandfather and father!"

Li Qingrui directly gently lifted his right leg, kicked the little Taoist priest to the ground, and scolded: "Just you, little rabbit cub, do you still want to take revenge?" ”

"Hmph, you two be careful, I can't beat you today, and one day I'll be stronger. When the time comes, I will definitely find you, so that your life is worse than death! The little Taoist priest didn't seem to know the situation at the moment, his life was still being held in the hands of others, and he dared to say such a thing.

Qin Xuan on the side heard this. couldn't help laughing a few times, and said casually: "Little guy, you don't look at what the situation is now, you say so." Aren't you afraid we'll kill you right now? Don't forget that killing one is killing, and it makes no difference if you have one! ”

When the little Taoist priest heard Qin Xuan's words, he seemed to understand a little. Secretly swallowed a mouthful of spit, thought slowly, and moved a few steps. "You ...... Do you dare to let me live, wait until I grow up! ”

Qin Xuan couldn't help laughing, and Li Qingrui was also a little happy. The two glanced at each other, and Li Qingrui said: "That's feasible, we're not stupid, how can we leave you in such trouble for ourselves?" ”

At this time, the little Taoist priest finally knew that he was afraid, and trembled for a long time before he spoke: "You are cowards, you don't even let go of my child, and when it spreads, you will definitely be laughed at!" ”

"Oh? Really? Do you think we're going to let this get out? Qin Xuan smiled slightly and said casually.

"This ......," the little Taoist priest quietly moved a few steps back.

Seeing this, Qin Xuan waved his hand and said, "Forget it, Qingrui, take him back to Qingyuan Gate, and talk about it then!" ”

"Qingyuanmen, you are also from Qingyuanmen?" When the little Taoist priest heard Qin Xuan's words, he asked directly and weakly.

Hearing this, Qin Xuan casually asked, "Yes, what's the matter?" Does it have anything to do with you that we are Qingyuanmen? ”

"My father said that it was Qingyuanmen who persecuted us, otherwise we wouldn't have gone out to deceive people! I want to reply to the hidden view! The little Taoist seemed to be even more resentful of Qin Xuan and the others, staring at Qin Xuan directly, without blinking for a long time.

"Do you just listen to your father? Come back to Qingyuanmen with us, otherwise, we will kill you!" The injury on Qin Xuan's shoulder was faintly starting to hurt, and the air in this secret room was indeed a little choking, Qin Xuan didn't want to stay here for a moment longer.

"Hmph, aren't you just going to Qingyuanmen, I'll accompany you!" The little Taoist said this, but there was a faint trace of resentment at the corner of his mouth, Qin Xuan didn't pay attention, but Li Qingrui really saw it clearly, shook his head slightly, and didn't say anything.

Out of the lake, Qin Xuan looked west, and it was almost dusk at this time. The dusk afterglow is sprinkled on the trees of Mangdang Mountain, reflecting the mottled two spots, and even the Tyndall phenomenon can be seen.

The little Taoist priest seemed to have decided that Qin Xuan and the others would not hurt him, and they were not much afraid when they walked, and before the sun set, Qin Xuan and the three of them finally returned to Qingyuanmen. Ma Min didn't know if it was because of Qin Xuan's arrival, or because of what, his body gradually improved. When he learned that the little Taoist priest in front of him was the son of Zhenjing, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, and only spoke up after a long time: "Qin Xuan, he is still a child, don't embarrass him!" ”

Qin Xuan chuckled and said, "Since I brought him back, I don't mean to embarrass him, don't worry!" After a slight pause, Qin Xuan continued: "However, you have to educate this little Taoist priest well, don't make a big mistake because of my momentary kindness!" ”

"No, definitely not, I will definitely let him know right from wrong!"

Qingyuanmen is considered an orthodox sect of Taoism, although there is no Qing rule and precept of abstaining from eating meat, however, Qingyuanmen is also considered a poor sect, and Ma Min and other Taoist priests are also Qing cultivators, but they did not kill. The habit of eating meat again. The food prepared for Qin Xuan was only some vegetarian food.

After dinner, Li Qingrui said goodbye to Qin Xuan and Ma Min and went straight to Mangxian. And Ma Min didn't know if it was because he followed Li Jiancheng to march and fight in the past, or because he later became a Taoist priest and learned slowly, and he actually knew some healing techniques.

While bandaging Qin Xuan's wounds, he said: "Qin Xuan, brother, I can see through, in this Tang Dynasty, being a Taoist idler is much better than your bastard officialdom!" ”

Qin Xuan smiled slightly. shook his head and said: "Brother Ma, you have no relatives, no reason, no worries, I am different from you, I have a wife and children now, I can't bring a large family to follow you as a Taoist!" ”

"Oh? Do you have a wife and children? Hearing Qin Xuan's words, Ma Min couldn't help but be a little surprised, and lost his voice.

"Yes, don't be envious of Brother Ma, my wife and three concubines are all beautiful women. And my wife even gave me a pair of dragon and phoenix twins! As Qin Xuan spoke, a hint of pride appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"What? You have four wives! ”

"Brother Ma, why are you so excited, I'm also a coincidence!"

"Tell me more about your experience!"

"I'm here in time. It was in Guangling Mountain, and I was saved by an old man at the bottom of the mountain, and later I also recognized the old man as an uncle. Uncle also has a grandson, who can be regarded as my junior! Qin Xuan recalled the experience at the beginning of the crossing. With some emotion, he casually continued: "Later, the three of us were ready to go to Kyoto. When I passed through Guangling County, I encountered a murder case, and it was at that time that I met Yu'er, who was my wife......"

While reminiscing, Qin Xuan told Ma Min about his experience. In the end, Ma Min was a little surprised. "Qin Xuan, I really didn't expect that your experience in the past few years is even more wonderful than my experience of traveling through decades!"

"Wonderful or not, to nothing! To put it simply, I can't help myself, as if all these things of mine are led by someone! I sometimes wonder if someone is guiding me to do this! ”

"You also feel this way, to tell you the truth, I also have it, really, sometimes, things that I can not participate in will still fall on my head in the end, such as the first time we met! I wasn't going to go that time, but I always felt like something was calling me in the dark, and in the end, I even sent the Li family brothers to protect you! ”

"Huh? This ......"

The two chatted for a long time, and they were both a little sad, so Ma Min changed the topic and said: "Okay, don't talk about this, let's talk about the matter of recovering from the hidden view, what are you going to do?" ”

"I have already asked Qingrui to go to Mangxian, I still have five hundred Qianniuwei there, let Qingrui take four hundred Qianniuwei directly to Fuyinguan, this matter is not big, there will be no leakage, go directly to the mountain, and arrest all those who have some rebellion, as for those who sincerely seek the Tao, I will not hurt it, you can rest assured of this, Brother Ma!"

Seeing Qin Xuan's determined expression, Ma Min smiled slightly: "Hehe, okay, Brother Qin can think like this, I'm very happy, I mention those seekers thank you!" ”

Sure enough, as Qin Xuan expected, when the four hundred Qianniuwei felt reverted, about 800 Taoist priests did not resist, and only a very small number of Taoist priests, who were some ruffians and hooligans before, followed Liu Banxian and the Taoist priests who also harmed resisted.

However, with the cooperation of the eight hundred Taoist priests who had defected to the battle, together with Qin Xuan's four hundred thousand Niu Wei, they were captured in less than an hour. In this battle, Qin Xuan didn't even go, firstly because he had a shoulder injury, and secondly because Qin Xuan didn't want to go. This was also the first time that Li Qingrui had been given command, albeit in a skirmish.

What made Qin Xuan happy was not that Li Qingrui won the victory the first time he commanded. It was Li Qingrui who caught an old friend in the view of reincarnation, who was the obvious Taoist leader of the Bashu view of reincarnation. In the midst of the retreat, some gold and silver belongings were confiscated, including some standard weapons.

Qin Xuan was under the banner of being injured, and even threatened with the attribution of the Hidden Concept, so that Ma Min could go out to help solve it. Ma Min is also a famous minister under Li Jiancheng, so it is naturally not a problem to deal with this trivial matter. Not only did he find out some of the Taoist priests with bad intentions in the Hidden Meditation One by One, but he also registered all the gold and silver treasures in the Hidden Meditation, and helped Qin Xuan write a good note.

Qin Xuan was idle, and the Hidden View was replaced with a plaque, which became the dojo of Qingyuanmen. After these things were dealt with, Qin Xuan was ready to say goodbye and go to Mangxian.

The wind and the sun were beautiful, Qin Xuan, Li Qingrui, Xing Honglin and the four hundred thousand Niu Wei stood at the foot of the mountain in the new dojo of Qingyuanmen.

Qin Xuan arched his hands and said, "Brother Ma, take care, this farewell, I hope to see you again in the future!" ”

Ma Min didn't seem so polite, stepped forward to hug Qin Xuan, and patted Qin Xuan's back with both hands. "Brother Qin, remember Brother Ma's words, it's almost time to retire, think about how many of these ancient ministers have a good death, and the four words of high merit cover the master, just take it as a golden and jade good word from the elder brother!"

Qin Xuan nodded slightly. "Brother Ma, I remember. When I take care of this place, I'll rescue me and find a good place to live in seclusion! ”

"Isn't it okay to find a place to come to my view?"

"This ...... Brother Ma, I am a person with a wife and children, it is not appropriate to come to the Taoist temple, when the time comes, I will definitely inform you! (To be continued......)
