"It's indeed a pair of men and women with enviable kendo talents!"

Standing on the top floor of the tower behind Lao Eshan, Xi Shi looked at the prayer tower located in the other direction of the top of the mountain, and sighed in a complicated tone.

Behind him, the deputy sect master Pu Jianzi, the second master of the main hall, the first seat of the Wind Sword Peak, Zhao Ji, the three six realms, and the young sect master Mu Jiantian, the four of them stood side by side.

Hearing Master Xi's exclamation, Shi Chuanjian frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Sect Master, even if you want to surrender to Wenbang, you won't want to hand over all the treasures in my sect scripture building to them to read, right?"

Master Xi smiled when he heard this, and said indifferently: "What if you don't give it to them?"

Shi Chuan was stunned, and Pu Jianzi sighed lightly: "Wenbang has that Diaoyu Tai, if the sect master is unwilling to fight with them to the death, he will inevitably be suppressed by the Diaoyu Tai, without the Seven Realms, my Sword Building Sect has been greatly injured, how can I stop the rush of the dark night dragon rider?"

"That's a point," Master Xi turned around and smiled, "besides, why can't you hide the scriptures in the building for them?"

Seeing a few people stunned, Xi Shi sighed and said lightly: "The rise of Wenbang has been like a raging fire, the country is mighty, I built the sword sect to surrender twice in a row, and the people's hearts have long been lost, since it is destined to sink for a while, why not do it simply, help Wenbang, and use the power of Wenbang to save people's hearts." ”

"But compared to Daikin, Wenbang ...... after all"

Before Pu Jianzi finished speaking, Xi Shi had already shook his head and said indifferently: "Weak, right, that's right, compared to Dajin, Wenbang is indeed weak, but now the Song army is trying to attack Shaanxi in the north, and all the four people of Wanyan Fierce, Wanyan Fierce, Wanyan Yong, and Wanyan Dare are all there, without them, the Sichuan army has been greatly injured, let me ask where there are still troops in the Jin Kingdom to attack Wenbang?"

Zhao Ji was puzzled: "Aren't there still two places in Gansu and Qinghai?"

Xi Shi smiled and said: "Although the Liao State is destroyed, but the remnants of the Western Liao are entrenched outside, where do the armies of Qinghai and Gansu dare to move, Qinghai can draw some troops to help is beyond my thoughts, and I think it is also the largest number of troops in the third meeting of Wanyan." ”

"I'm afraid that Wanyan will go out in person. Pu Jianzi suddenly said in a condensed voice.

"Golden Emperor?" Master Xi was silent for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, "He doesn't dare, unless he is not afraid of falling here, he will definitely not dare to act rashly." ”

Seeing the confused eyes of several people, Xi Shi said lightly: "Although the Song and Jin countries are fighting fiercely in Shaanxi, they are still below the critical line, once the Jin Emperor is dispatched, even if it is only to deal with Wenbang, but if it is involved and the whole body is moved, it will inevitably provoke the western army of the Song Dynasty to attack, although he is the first to say that he is a high-level of the Seven Realms, but there is no one in the Song Dynasty who can match him." ”

Suddenly, Mu Jiantian clenched his fists and said, "But Master, why don't you let me join King Wen's Mansion?" Are you afraid that Wenbang will fail and we will be implicated?"

"Implicated?" "Implicated?" Xi Shiwan smiled, shook his head and said, "Since we surrendered to Wenbang, we have already been implicated, it doesn't matter whether you join or not, the reason why I don't let you go to Wenwang's Mansion is just because of my selfishness, I don't want you to be shackled by Wenwang's Mansion, you can practice with peace of mind, and inherit the position of my sect master in the future." ”

Seeing that Mu Jiantian was still a little confused, Xi Shi did not continue to answer, but said: "I have promised that Wen Bang will participate in the war with the army, but you don't have to, Pu Jianzi stayed to sit in the main sect, Zhao Ji, Shi Chuan, Jiantian, the three of you each led twenty disciples, and went to the three cities of Diaoyu, Nanchong and Yibin to build a sword academy respectively. ”

Although everyone still had doubts, when they saw that the Xi Shi no longer spoke, they did not continue to ask, and they all hugged their fists and promised.

The top of the tower was silent, Xi Shi's expression suddenly moved, and he stretched out his hand to make a move, and saw a roll of gold silk floating in the sky, slowly flying into the top of the tower and falling into Xi Shi's hands.

"The new Splendid List?" glanced at the three words "Splendid List" on the surface of the scroll, Xi Shi smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "Obviously it should be a semi-annual issue, but this guy Tianjizi has been dragging on for more than two years, and it seems that many young and handsome people have emerged in China recently, so this old guy has been sorted out for so long." As he spoke, he opened the scroll and read it.

After a while, Shi Xi rolled up the list and threw it to Mu Jiantian, and said with a smile: "Give this to King Wen, there are a lot of people on the list this time, hey, what a good opportunity, take advantage of the situation, do you want to promote the power of Wenbang?"

Mu Jiantian was a little inexplicable when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, and after taking the scroll, he hugged his fists and saluted, and quickly went down the tower.

Zhao Ji glanced at the air outside the tower, and suddenly asked, "Sect Master, what is the ranking of the Splendid List this time?"

"Jian Tian, but ranked sixteenth, down two places," the corner of Xi Shi's lips pursed a slight smile, and said slowly, "But this time, there are several more lists, used to sort the young masters of various weapons and martial arts, Jian Tian ranks third in the sword list, called Heavenly Sword, and ranks one of the top five swords in Huaxia." ”

"Huaxia Five Sword Heads?" Shi Chuanhu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "It's not small." ”

Xi Shi didn't talk, looked outside the tower, and there were a few ripples in his eyes: "Demon Sword, Emperor Sword, Heavenly Sword, Dao Sword, Spirit Sword, Huaxia Five Sword Heads, Our Royal Highness King Wen, this time is the first sword head, think about it Now this news has spread all over China, but I don't know what will happen when the Wen State is promoting the situation?"

*——*——*——*

"The first sword head?" Looking at the list in his hand, Yao Ruoyu was slightly stunned and said in surprise, "So I am not on the splendid list, but is listed in this Huaxia Five Sword Leader?"

Mu Jiantian was stunned for a moment, and only after a while did he smile bitterly: "No, this sword list is only one of the second lists of the splendid list, and the prince ranks second on the main list, second only to the [Tsar] Wanyan Emperor, and the original second place [Killing God] Zhang Ziqiang and [Emperor] Wanyan Qiongyu have been squeezed down by one." ”

"Oh?" Yao Ruoyu smiled with satisfaction, unfolded the golden scroll and looked at it slowly, and Li Huan next to him also squeezed over, looking at the ranking above with interest.

The top ten of this splendid list are from high to low, in order: [Tsar] Wanyan Emperor Yi, [Demon Sword] Yao Ruoyu, [Killing God] Zhang Ziqiang, [Emperor] Wanyan Qiongyu, [God of War] Chen Weijia, [Giant Tree] A Tu, [Snow Ji] Cui Qiaoxin, [Leopard Girl] Manli, [White Clothes] Li Yuezhou, [Dragon Emperor] Song Xiao.

As for Huang Xinyuan, Su Jing, Mu Jiantian, Zhenjin and others, they are all ten years later.

In addition, what makes Yao Ruoyu happy is that in addition to himself and Zhang Ziqiang, there are also many people in the Ministry of Literature and Art on the splendid list, Xu Xuanrong ranks nineteenth, Li Huan ranks twenty-second, Cai Xudong ranks twenty-third, Yang Renjie ranks twenty-fourth, and Fu Feng ranks twenty-ninth.

The splendid list released this time is not only the main list, but also other sub-lists such as sword list, knife list, gun list, etc., among which the top five people in the sword list are known as the five swordsmen of Huaxia Huaxia, namely Yao Ruoyu, Wanyan Qiongyu, Mu Jiantian, Huang Xinyuan, and Li Huan.

After looking at it for a while, Yao Ruoyu threw the splendid list to Li Huan, who was still interested, and smiled with Mu Jiantian: "When does Brother Mu plan to set off to establish the Sword Academy?"

Mu Jiantian was stunned, and was about to think about answering, Yao Ruoyu had already shook his head and smiled: "That's it, anyway, Sect Master Xi definitely doesn't want you to enter my Wen Palace, then the king will go down the mountain first, this time the splendid list is updated, I'm afraid that the situation in the northwest will change again, and I won't wait for me, so I will leave first." After that, he directly pulled Li Huan, cast a spell and flew into the air, and rushed to Meishan City.

Tightly grasping the splendid list, Li Huan said curiously: "Brother demon, what do you mean? Why is this splendid list updated, and the situation in the northwest will change?"

"We have been attacking Sichuan for so long, but in addition to Wanyan's third reinforcements, Jin Guoke has other troops to reinforce? Could it be that they can't see us? No, it's just that in their opinion, our Wenbang is just a little snake that follows the Song Dynasty dragon to secretly eat on the side, as long as the Song army is solved, it can take care of us at any time. ”

Staring ahead, Yao Ruoyu said slowly with sharp eyes: "It's just that with the update of this splendid list, Jin Guoguo found that there were six people in my Wenbang who were on the top of it, and I was ranked second, so our importance would naturally rise rapidly, and they would also pay more attention to us." ”

"The current Wenbang may not be as strong as the Jin and Song countries, but once we completely digest Sichuan, with the supplies here, plus the six of us on the splendid list, we will definitely be the great enemies of the Jin country, if I am the high-level of the Jin country, I will definitely solve us first at all costs. ”

"So......" Taking a deep breath, Yao Ruoyu said solemnly, "Time is not waiting for me! The splendid list is updated today, I am afraid that there will be a move by the high-level of the Jin State in two or three days, so we must act immediately, mobilize troops, capture Chengdu Mansion in one fell swoop, and completely bring Sichuan under control!"

"It's not that exaggerated, right? Why don't you ask Meng Mengda?" Li Huan blinked, her bright eyes full of cunning, "Also, did you forget something?"

"What forgot?" Yao Ruoyu was slightly stunned, and then suddenly, scolded with a smile, "You dead girl, I just went to Meishan, how far can it be, anyway, I have to go back to the Sword Building Sect later, do you think Chan'er is your guy, and you have nothing to do?"

"Really?" Li Huan snorted twice and said disdainfully, "I think that demon sister-in-law is probably not a good-tempered person, and the vinegar jar is not small, you just ran away without saying hello, I'm afraid you will have to kneel on the keyboard when you go back, no, there is no keyboard here, so let's washboard!"

"Roll the calf!" scolded Yao Ruoyu's body suddenly, and then fell rapidly from mid-air, and the spiritual energy around his body was immense, and in a few breaths, he had already fallen from a height of hundreds of zhang into the Meishan City below.

Xu Xuanrong was discussing affairs with Zou Buyi in the city lord's mansion, when he heard the movement outside, he hurriedly walked out, and saw that it was Yao Ruoyu and Li Huan who fell from the sky, they were all stunned, and then Xu Xuanrong sneered: "Recently, our prince has become more and more public, it seems that he feels that the situation is stable, and there is no need to pretend like before." ”

The bickering between them, Zou Buyi naturally won't mix, just laughing on the side.

After landing, Yao Ruoyu let go of Li Huan, patted the dust all over his body, and then walked in front of Xu Xuanrong and Zou Buyi, said about the update of the Splendid List, and then forced his eyes to look at Zou Buyi.

The latter originally looked indifferent, but when he glared at him, he was stunned at first, and then said with a smile: "The prince blames me for the matter of the splendid list? ”

After looking at him suspiciously, Yao Ruoyu retracted his gaze and said to Xu Xuanrong: "I plan to gather troops immediately and take Chengdu Mansion before there are no new reinforcements from the Jin Kingdom." ”

"Yes," Xu Xuanrong bowed slightly, then frowned, "It's just that I'm afraid there won't be any new reinforcements." ”

Seeing that Yao Ruoyu was stunned, Xu Xuanrong sneered: "You immediately thought of these when you saw the update of the Splendid List, it is indeed very powerful, but I don't know if you have ever thought about it, even if Jin Guo knows this, there are still troops to reinforce Sichuan?"

Yao Ruoyu suddenly came to his senses, patted his head, and sighed: "It's me who is stupid." ”

"Yes," nodded slowly, Xu Xuanrong ignored the other party's wry expression, and said lightly, "Almost half of the Jin country's troops are fighting with the Song army in Shaanxi, and the other troops also have to guard against Western Liao and Qinghai and Gansu, where are there still spare troops to come, even if they know, they are already in the situation and can't get out." ”

"It's just that I don't understand, why does Tianjizi want to update the Splendid List now?" Yao Ruoyu looked at Zou Buyi, who was also frowning, puzzled: "I'm also strange, this time the Splendid List has been delayed for more than two years to update, and it happens to be when the situation in the northwest is delicate, what is the master thinking." ”

"Maybe it's to promote the further development of the situation in the northwest," Xu Xuanrong frowned slightly, and sneered, "The fall of Sichuan is a foregone conclusion, unless the Jin State is willing to give up Shaanxi in exchange for Sichuan, there is absolutely no possibility of interfering here, as for the garrison in Chengdu Prefecture, besieging it for many days, I'm afraid it will also be a big drop in morale, but it's just a trapped beast." ”

"At this moment, update the splendid list, promote the situation in the northwest, my Wenbang six people on the splendid list, not only on behalf of the future potential of Wenbang, but also to boost the morale of our army, those who were not optimistic about us in the past may now plan to contact us, there are many benefits, not bad. ”

Yao Ruoyu suddenly smiled bitterly and sighed: "So, am I worrying about the sky?"

"Yes!" Xu Xuanrong nodded and replied very calmly.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Yao Ruoyu said: "Even so, it's better to take Sichuan completely as soon as possible, and if it's late, there will be changes, don't delay it for a long time, something will happen." ”

"That's right," Xu Xuanrong bowed slightly, and said, "It's just that this time we go to Chengdu, our literary and artistic army will naturally be all dispatched, but all parts of Sichuan also need someone to sit in the town, so that all the guest secretaries and Wang Li will come over and sit in various places, in case our army leaves and there is chaos in the local area." ”

Yao Ruoyu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, in addition, let Xiao Hou inform Yelu Yushou that since they are allies, they can't help but participate in such a thing as attacking Chengdu." ”
