Coal mountain, under that crooked-necked tree.

Yang Yifei lit incense candles and inserted them under the tree, burning paper money under the tree with Chen Jinnan while waiting for the arrival of the Nine Tribulations.

Because this place is not far from the palace, but two or three miles away, the two did not dare to burn in large piles, so they had to let the paper money fully burn one by one, so that there would be no smoke, and they would be discovered by the forbidden army and cause trouble.

And in this way, that stack of paper money is enough for them to burn for two hours, so that the waiting time will not be too boring.

After burning for a while, Chen Jinnan suddenly sighed and said: "The first emperor reigned for seventeen years, worked hard, worked hard and loved the people, but in the end he lost the country with diligence, but it is a pity, a pity. ”

Yang Yifei also sighed again and again, and said, "Yes! I heard that when the first emperor was in power, he didn't like women but liked to read a lot of books, although he was the emperor, he never enjoyed the brocade clothes and jade food, except for the dragon robe when he was in the last dynasty, he always wore patched clothes on weekdays. ”

"Such a good emperor, but he just became the king of the dead country, how unfair is God?"

Chen Jinnan said: "Although the first emperor was the king of the dead country, he at least achieved the Ming ancestral training of 'the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in the society', and he is worthy of the ancestors and ancestors." ”

While the two of them were burning paper, they had a gossip about not having a match, talking about the previous dynasty, and talking about Emperor Chongzhen, it was a "born at the wrong time" evaluation.

During Chongzhen's reign, it was in the Xiaoice River period, and in summer there were great droughts and floods, and in winter it was extremely cold, the grain in the fields was not harvested, and the people had no livelihood.

While chatting, Chen Jinnan's expression suddenly froze, Huo Ran got up, looked at a small hill in front of him, and shouted, "What person?" ”

Yang Yifei's heart moved, if someone was really hiding on the side, it wouldn't be someone else.

The two waited for two breaths before they saw a white figure walking out from behind the small hill a few feet away, Yang Yifei saw it, and immediately showed joy on his face, walked quickly to meet him, hugged his fists and bowed down and said, "Disciple to meet Master." ”

"Well, get up!" That person was the Nine Difficulties, Yang Yifei noticed that her eyes were red at this time, and there were still some wet marks on her sleeves, and she immediately understood.

The Nine Tribulations should have been here a long time ago, and the words of him and Chen Jinnan must have been heard by her, and she couldn't help but think of the past and feel sad in her heart.

With her martial arts, even Chen Jinnan didn't notice that she was here at first, until she was upset and made a slight movement, which was noticed by Chen Jinnan and called Po Xingzang.

And after she was called to break the hiding, it took two breaths before she came out, mostly wiping her tears and sorting out her emotions.

Thinking about things clearly in an instant, Yang Yifei couldn't help but feel pity, he, a cheap master, didn't know how much pain he had hidden in his heart, the demise of the Ming Dynasty was not only a ruin for her, but also a family ruin!

Considering the self-esteem of the Nine Tribulations, he pretended not to notice the traces of crying on her face, and said sideways, "Master, let me introduce you to a friend." ”

Seeing that the apprentice didn't ask much, Jiu Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and walked towards Chen Jinnan, Yang Yifei walked half a step behind and walked beside her.

"Chief helmsman, this is the family master of the Nine Tribulations, Master, this is the chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society."

Chen Jinnan hugged his fists and saluted, and said: "I have seen Shitai, when I have admired the Iron Sword Gate for a long time, the name of Musang Daoist is even more thunderous, and it is really a blessing to see Shitai today." ”

Jiu Yan returned the salute with a raised palm, and said calmly: "Chief Helmsman Chen led a group of heroes to expel the Tartars and restore the Ming Dynasty against the Qing Dynasty, and the poor nuns also admired it tightly, but I don't know that the Heaven and Earth Society has been established for nearly 20 years, but what progress has been made?" ”

Chen Jinnan's face showed a look of surprise, and said: "I'm ashamed, I am only a shallow learner, my ability is limited, and I have led the Heaven and Earth Society for twenty years, and I have not made any achievements so far. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Yang Yifei and said with a clear gaze: "But now that the high-foot Yang brothers have joined, I see the hope of reversing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty." ”

Nine difficulties said noncommittally: "Just having a thunderbolt may not be able to help the Heaven and Earth Society achieve great causes. ”

Chen Jinnan said with a smile: "It seems that Mrs. Shi's understanding of Gaozu is not deep enough, what Brother Yang has brought to the Heaven and Earth Society is not just a thunderbolt, his value can be worth several Heaven and Earth Society." ”

"With his ability, as long as he is given time, even if there is no Heaven and Earth Society, it is enough to achieve the great cause of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty by himself, and the Heaven and Earth Society will have Brother Yang, and the recovery of the Ming Dynasty is just around the corner."

"Oh?" Jiu Yan looked at Yang Yifei who shook his head with a smile in surprise, Chen Jinnan was right, she really didn't know much about this newly recruited apprentice.

Chen Jinnan's evaluation of him was beyond her expectations, in the past few months, in addition to robbing the Dharma field and blowing up the Tartar with a thunderbolt, what other great feats did he did that she didn't know?

Yang Yifei smiled and said, "Master, disciple believes, you also want to see the recovery of the Ming Dynasty, right?" It is better for you to go to Perak Hall with your disciples in the future, so that your disciples can serve at any time, and you can see with your own eyes how your disciples have recovered the Ming Dynasty step by step, which can be described as the best of both worlds. ”

"Perak Hall?" Nine difficult eyes showed a look of surprise.

Chen Jinnan explained: "The so-called Perak Hall is a hall set up for the Yang brothers in Xia, and he is the master of incense, overseeing all the affairs of the hall, and the location of the hall is on an overseas island. ”

"Brother Yang can not only make thunderbolts, muskets and artillery, but also some other extremely advantageous firearms, and when these beneficial weapons are fully stocked, it will be the time for my heaven and earth to have an incident."

Nine Tribulations nodded slowly and thoughtfully, and said, "When are you going to Thunderbolt Hall?" ”

Chen Jinnan said: "Due to the new construction of Perak Hall, it will take some time to mobilize manpower, prepare supplies and ships, and purchase a large number of materials needed by Brother Yang, and it is expected that it will be about September before we can leave for the island where Perak Hall is located. ”

Jiu Zhan: "Okay, that's the case, after half a year, the poor nun will go to Perak Hall with you, but in this half a year, Yifei needs to follow me to practice martial arts, no matter what, martial arts is the foundation of life." ”

Chen Jinnan was overjoyed, the martial arts of the Nine Tribulations were still above him, if it weren't for her movement, he wouldn't have found her at all, she was willing to be with Yang Yifei, which means that there will be another top master in the Heaven and Earth Society, and he said happily at the moment: "What Mrs. Shi said is extremely true, everything depends on Mrs. Shitai." ”

When Yang Yifei heard this, he asked tentatively: "Then Master, should we go to the hall of the Heaven and Earth Society, or ......?"

Jiu Yan shook his head and said, "No, you go back to Songshan with me, your junior sister is still staying alone in Songshan, we need to pick her up, otherwise she can't live alone." ”

Yang Yifei nodded and said to Chen Jinnan: "Then the chief helmsman, let's break up here!" The affairs of Perak Hall were temporarily asked by Brother Xu and them to preside over it on their behalf. ”

Chen Jinnan said: "No problem, you can learn martial arts with your master with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about the affairs of the hall." ”

Yang Yifei groaned for a moment and said, "Chief helmsman, I have an idea, I don't know what you think." ”

Chen Jinnan stretched out his hand and said, "You say." ”

Yang Yifei said: "I want Wu Liuqi to join the army under a pseudonym and enter the green camp army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty as an undercover agent, with his martial arts and intelligence, I believe it will not be long before he can climb to a high position." ”

"The Green Camp is made up of Han Chinese, and when we get into trouble, he will be of great help to us."

Chen Jinnan pondered for a moment, and said: "I can only convey your meaning to Brother Wu, but I want to choose by himself, after all, being an undercover agent is a matter of life and death, it is extremely dangerous, one carelessness is a catastrophe, we can't force our own brothers." ”

Yang Yifei smiled and said: "Yes, so I'm just a proposal, it's up to him to choose whether he wants to go or not, I will never force it, if he doesn't want to go, I will promote him to be the owner of the Red Flag Incense and pass on his method of making firearms." ”

Chen Jinnan said happily: "Okay, I will convey your meaning truthfully." ”
