Chapter 22: Hope
The female baby born on the lotus seat is named Guo Xiang.
It is a name that has been destined to become legendary since birth.
Although this girl was born without any vision of heaven and earth, and there was no entire forest in the Southern Song Dynasty shouting her name, her life was destined to be ordinary, and even more prominent than those secular princes and nobles.
Just because her name is Guo Xiang!
As we all know, Zhang Sanfeng, the ancestor of Wudang, loved the name of a woman when he was young and called Guo Xiang, and after a few decades of migration, he personally gave a girl a name like his first love, which means that it is really enough to make people think about it.
Is it a coincidence, is it Lao Zhang's nostalgia?
No.
Many people on Wudang Mountain know that before Guo Xiang spoke out, his parents had been taken into Wudang Mountain to take strict care, as if they were afraid that something would go wrong with this unborn child, and this almost overprotective posture was not lifted until after Guo Xiang was born.
After learning this information, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this so-called 'Xiao Guo Xiang' must have a special meaning for Zhang Sanfeng.
But what is it?
One is the ancestor of Emei, Zhang Sanfeng's first love hundreds of years ago, and the other is a female baby who was born after his death.
Transmigration?
Reincarnation?
After waiting for you in the world for decades, you finally found your reincarnation?
There is a lot of evidence that people have to think about it here, and when this rumor spread with the rivers and lakes, Wudang did not come forward to refute the rumor, but let it spread like this.
Is this the default?
Many people feel as if they have discovered some terrible secret, but no matter what they think, no one dares to beat the doctrine on the girl.
But in any case, the name Guo Xiang, just because of Lao Zhang's attitude, has become a taboo existence on the rivers and lakes.
Not only Lin Lingsu and his gang are like thunder to them, but also some juniors and rookies on the rivers and lakes were also told before going out that they should not provoke this Zhang Sanfeng's baby bump no matter what, for fear that none of their own people would pay attention to it and provoke this little ancestor, and they would bring disaster to their own sect.
The reason for this is not only the large and small sects on the Nanzhan Continent warned one by one, but even many sects in Chixian Shenzhou have listed this Guo Xiang in the list of unprovoked Daozi and goddesses of the five top immortal sects.
And this seems to be a continuation of Zhang Sanfeng's own will.
He acquiesced, which means that he knows the follow-up development of the matter, and this follow-up development is what he is happy to see, and even in it, there is a bit of his encouragement.
With his Zhang Sanfeng's deterrent power, he will pave the way for Guo Xiang's future, and hope that her life's path can go on smoothly.
In addition, on Wudang Mountain, Penglai Immortal Island, and even some precious resources produced in Emperor Wu City, a lot of them will be spent on Guo Xiang every year.
In the foundation building stage, there is a heavenly thunder to help quench the body for a thousand days, and in the cultivation stage, Zhang Sanfeng, a Taoist giant, has become his teacher, and there is no shortage of resources, nor lack of exercises, and no one has ever worried about talent.
With such a Guo Xiang, who would think that her achievements in the future would be low?
No!
For example, Lin Lingsu and their group of monks on the Nanzhan Continent have already regarded Guo Xiang as the next Wang Chongyang and the next Lan Li, waiting for her to rise like a comet like the two martial arts predecessors in the past, and turn into a dazzling sun, shining for an entire era!
Countless expectations and countless praises have been added to this little girl by countless people in the rivers and lakes.
And the martial arts newcomer of the same period as her, everyone can compare it, probably only the 'immortal fetus' who was raised by his father in Emperor Wu City when he was a child, and his mother was a descendant of Nuwa of Nanzhao Kingdom, and was found by the heavenly master on Longhu Mountain as soon as he was born!
Yes!
One is blessed with the prestige of Zhang Sanfeng, the first person in the Nanzhan Continent, and the other is the immortal fetus born by giving the last hope when the main plane was shattered, these two have always been two beings who have been talked about together among cultivators.
It's a pity that in the eyes of many people, Guo Xiang on the lotus platform in Wudang Houshan is more evaluated than Lan Xin'er.
Because of the teacher!
Although the two Taoist systems are both from Wudang, one side has Zhang Sanfeng, the ancestor of Wudang, to teach, and the other is the second martial arts immortal born in Wudang Mountain since Zhang Sanfeng.
But in everyone's hearts, Lan Li, the apprentice, must not have his own ancestor to teach his disciples, right?
Although on the surface, Lan Li taught an outstanding disciple of Dongfang Bai, don't forget that it is Lan Li himself, who is from Zhang Sanfeng's disciples!!
What's more, in terms of realm, Lan Li and Zhang Sanfeng also have a big distance at the moment.
But even so, counting the entire Nanzhan Continent, among Guo Xiang's generation, only Lan Xin'er, an immortal fetus, can compare with it, and there is really no one else to be found.
During the Zhang Sanfeng period, there were still strong people like Xiaoyaozi, Lin Lingsu, Murong Longcheng, and Shaolin sweeping monks who could compete with them.
In Wang Chongyang's era, Zhang Wuxia of the Central Plains, the Grassland Heroes, Genghis Khan, and Wudang were also urged by the group.
In the era of Lanli, there were a large number of proud sons of heaven such as Dongfang Undefeated, Murong Fu, Li Mochou, Zhuo Yihang, Shi Potian and so on!
But when it was Guo Xiang and Lan Xin'er's turn, the entire rivers and lakes of Nanzhan Buzhou seemed to have really withered away.
There are no opponents!
is not only the definition in the hearts of most people above the rivers and lakes, even some martial artists who talk to themselves are extraordinary, in their hearts, they have already listed these two proud women of the sky as another level of existence, and they have never thought of competing with these two in the past!
Even the heart of competition has never risen, how can it be compared with these two in the future?
This is the sorrow of the entire Nanzhan Buzhou Martial Dao, their existence is like the last glory of a glorious martial arts era, and it also symbolizes the once flourishing human immortal martial arts, which have been completely suppressed by the foreign immortal Dao.
To put it another way.
The new generation on the entire rivers and lakes several times, those who can have the confidence to break through to the realm of entering the Dao, these are the only two people!
And under these two people, those who have the hope of breaking through to the realm of the Great Grandmaster are very few in number, and they may not exceed the number of ten fingers.
At the level of a martial arts master, the number has increased exponentially.....
In this regard, the martial artists on the Nanzhan Continent were cowardly in their hearts, and it may really be in response to Li Xiaoyao's words back then, the new world has begun to suppress the rise of the martial arts level in the system, and now it is much more difficult to practice martial arts than the original main plane.
But for this situation, everyone is powerless at all.
This is a change in the laws of the world, after the merger of the world, the Heavenly Dao prefers the Immortal Dao more, rather than the martial arts that are more ferocious and ruthless, and it is easy to climb the realm by fighting with others.
But fortunately, martial arts are not really hopeless.
For example, Wang Chongyang's group of people are still advancing towards the realm of human immortals, or a Jiazi, among the people in the same period as Wang Chongyang, a group of people with enough martial arts talent will become new martial arts immortals.
After them, the martial artists who were at the same time as Lan Li have now also begun to march towards the Dao, perhaps by this day, the heavens and the earth no longer rely on the martial arts, but just like the talents of Dongfang Bai and them, everyone is willing to believe in it, believing that these people can break out of the way!
And for the new generation, there are at least two people to comment, Guo Xiang and Lan Xin'er!
But the panicked martial arts of the year may only stop here.
In the case of the weak martial arts between heaven and earth, the chance of giving birth to immortal fetuses like Guo Xiang and Lan Xin'er is very small.
Even, even if their own family really gave birth to such children, how many people would send them to learn the martial arts that had already become an outer path, instead of letting their own children practice the bright future of the immortal path?
This question, there is no answer,
Everyone has a scale in their hearts, and when they need to face it in the coming day, they can always distinguish a result......
......
......
Guo Xiang.
As the last hope of martial arts on the southern Zhanbu continent.
What is her daily life like?
I got up early every morning, accompanied my uncles to the mountain to watch the sunrise, then went to the cafeteria for breakfast, and then followed many Wudang junior disciples to the martial arts hall to listen to the lectures, learning martial arts and books every day, and complaining from time to time that the rules on the mountain were too strict, which seemed to be no different from other ordinary disciples on Wudang Mountain.
The little girl's life on Wudang Mountain was uneventful, and it seemed that the boiling rumors that were spread under the mountain did not spread to Wudang Mountain.
And it stands to reason that everyone living on Wudang Mountain only treats her as a 'teacher-related household' similar to Song Qingshu and Zhang Wuji at the beginning.
There may be caution, but if it is said that fear, worship, fear like a tiger, and respect like a god are special treatment, it is not at all.
After all, in addition to being more beautiful and more temperamental than other female disciples on the mountain, this little girl is just an ordinary female disciple.
When I was a child, I played with mud, and I also played with a large group of senior brothers and sisters, and I didn't have dust like the fairy in the book, and I often got myself covered in mud after a day of crazy play.....
How to say it.
Compared with Guo Xiang, who grew up like an ordinary woman, it is obvious that the 'little princess' in Emperor Wu City is more in line with the public's expectations for 'hope for the future'.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it is estimated that no one would regard this little girl who has been messing around with people on Wudang Mountain as the hope of future martial arts!
By the way, this girl has also learned to chase stars!
Her idol is either someone else, or the most outstanding Lan of the previous generation in Wudang.
Ahem, ahem.
The reason for this is that from the mouths of her father, mother, and sister who often went up to the mountain to visit her, they often heard the name of Lan Li, the 'uncle'.
She's not the only one!
To be precise, Lan Li's existence, and the stories he experienced when he was young, have now become a legend that inspires the new generation of disciples in Wudang to work hard! It's still the kind of martial arts epic that makes people feel excited when they hear it!
Born at the foot of Wudang Mountain, he was the son of a businessman under the mountain, and his talent was not outstanding after going up the mountain, but because of the 'adventure' later, his talent was stimulated, and since then the martial arts have been refined all the way, and now he has become the second martial arts immortal in Wudang Mountain since the ancestor Zhang Sanfeng! And in the entire Nanzhan Continent, they are all big people who stand at the top and need them to worship!
is not only an achievement in martial arts, but also a family affair, and it has become a gossip and interesting story that many people often talk about after Wudang.
For example, if you marry the holy daughter of Nanzhao, not to mention your beauty, you can live for 8,000 years......
For example, he single-handedly founded the two major organizations of the 'Mercenary Union' and 'Lanjia Qianzhuang', which currently maintain the order of the entire Daqian Dynasty.
For example, some industrial advances, such as the collaborative development of the 'Flying Boat Technology', and the 'Dragon Hunting' series of weapons that can make people's blood boil at the sound of a sound!
Especially the dragon hunting series, this series of weapons, even if they are placed above Chixian Shenzhou, are also high-precision and sophisticated technologies at the leading level, and they are the top wave in the world at the moment!
Of course, none of this is the most important thing.
For a young generation of Wudang women of Guo Xiang's age, Lan Li's appearance is really super good-looking, or the kind that can't help but drool at a glance......
The person is beautiful, has a good family background, and his own talent and cultivation are top-notch, and he has made great contributions to the entire Nanzhan Continent!
Such an almost perfect man, or his own uncle (senior brother), how can he make these young girls not be moved?
Obviously, in Wudang Mountain, a small circle with few female disciples, Guo Xiang also successfully integrated into the inexplicable secret organization of the 'Lanli Support Group', and even showed more fanaticism.
Just like the dormitory where Lan Li and Qingfeng lived at the beginning, this little girl also ran with a group of people to 'pay respects'.
It is said that he also rolled several times in the bed where Lan Li slept ......
And the last time Lan Li returned to the mountain, even if this little girl was at a critical juncture in her cultivation, she still secretly ran out of the pass in the end, just to see the demeanor of her idol last time.
Fall in love at first sight?
The key is that the little uncle is really good-looking!!
If it weren't for the fact that Uncle Xiao had already become a family, and he had a daughter who was about the same age as himself, Guo Xiang would have to become a member of the group of women who 'hated to marry' in Xiangyang City.....
I was not born, I was born to be old, I hated not to be the king, and I was good with you every night.
This passage really speaks the hearts of many junior women on Wudang Mountain, so that every time they see Lan, they can't wait to replace Zixuan, who is by Lan Li's side......
