Chapter 9: The Three Assassins (1)

Taibai Mountain, the main peak of the Qinling Mountains, with an altitude of 3,771 meters, rides on the geographical dividing line between the north and south of China.

Entering the fertile field in the lower pass, relying on the base of the Han and Tang dynasties, out of the Tongguan to fight for the world. Retreat can take the Hanzhong Basin, get Longwang Shu, imitate Zhuge Kongming's Longzhong, occupy the country of Sichuan Tianfu, favor the southwest, and Xu Tu goes north.

This is the geographical center of China โ€“ the China of China.

The competition for the world is actually a competition for geographical advantages. Occupy two geographical advantages, you can seize the world, one is the northwest Guanzhong, and the other is the northeast Youyan. Before the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the northwest was dominant; After that, the Northeast prevailed. The only exception, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang took Jianghuai as the base, set the capital in Nanjing, and unified China.

"If you live here, you can determine the world."

A tall man, with chestnut hair, a raised nose bridge, and blue eyeballs, looked at the sun on the sea of clouds, and returned to the "Heavenly Academy". He is now not called Qin Beiyang, but the first German assassin - Adolf Luxemburg.

She is no longer the master of the assassins, and the eighteen-year-old Ah You, who has used superb masqueration, has used superb masquerade skills to pretend to be a noblewoman over forty years old, the first female assassin in Nanyang - Lin Jiao'e.

Behind them is Michael, the dark-skinned "Angel" Michael, America's number one assassin - only he is not a copycat.

For the first time, Jiuse climbed the Taibai Mountain, like a big alpaca on the snow-capped mountains of the Peruvian Andes. Bare ridges littered with angular gravel patches. The Great Uncle Sea is also known as the Great Taibai Sea, as well as the Second Taibai Sea and the Third Taibai Sea, all of which are as horizontal as a mirror, clear and unfathomable. The largest water surface is the Jade Emperor Pond, which is not inferior to the Yao Pond of the Queen Mother, a typical cirque lake and a glacial erosion lake, all of which belong to the remains of Quaternary glaciers.

The landscape in the Taibai Mountains shows vertical changes in altitude, from bottom to top are cork oak belt, acute tooth oak belt, Liaodong oak belt, red birch forest belt, cowhide birch belt, Bashan fir belt, Taibai red cedar belt, alpine shrub meadow belt, until the top of the mountain where there is no grass and even snow all year round.

Suddenly, a large rock fell into the water from the top of the snowy peak......

The wind and clouds suddenly changed, and a wisp of green smoke rose in the center of the lake, gradually becoming a pillar of fog connecting the sky and the top of the mountain. After a while, the fog has covered the surface of the lake, the sky is dark, and there is a loud rumbling sound at the bottom of the valley, like the sound of cutting down cypress and red pine......

Some people say that this is the work of the unjust souls killed on Taibai Mountain, but it is actually a natural phenomenon of the alpine climate. During the Tang Tianbao period, there was a great drought in Guanzhong, and Jing Zhaoyin fetched a bucket of water from the sea to ask for rain, and sure enough, the rain poured down. From then on, as long as the gongs and drums were beaten in the deep pool, the wind would be fierce, and even snow would fly in June. In ancient times, when the march passed under the mountain, it must pass quietly, otherwise it would alarm the god of Taibai Mountain, and the whole army would be swallowed by the mudslide.

Climb the highest mountain beam, the peak of the triangle, is the highest point of the Qinling Mountains - Baxiantai.

There is an ancient temple built of stones on the platform, and the first one of the nine colors jumps on the top of the stone, like an alpaca beast that swallows the heavens, the earth, the sun and the moon. Pull out Sendai, stand out from the crowd, the mountains and stars hold the moon, as the Du Gong Department said, "will be at the top, a glance at the mountains small".

Qin Beiyang looks far away, looks at Qinchuan in the north, Weishui is like a belt, and Qianmo is vertical and horizontal. The plank road is repaired in the light, and the darkness is in the warehouse, which is vivid; On the east and west sides, there are endless Qinling Mountains, but in the south are the Hanzhong Basin, which is full of mountains.

It is said that Baxiantai was the place where Jiang Ziya was sealed as a god after King Wu was killed, and the god list fell here. Qin Beiyang almost knelt down again, but Ah You grabbed him and whispered a warning: "Don't forget that you are German now!" โ€

"Yes, Ms. Lin!"

He deliberately replied loudly in German for the Assassins watching behind him to hear.

Walking down the windy Baxian Terrace, there is a strong city gate cave in between, and three big characters are engraved on the door: Tianchao Gate.

Passing through the gate, it is a small square surrounded by mountain peaks, facing five stone archways, and the book "Shengtianmen" is written.

Nine glazed tile halls on the top of a palace, standing on the white marble steps, is not inferior to the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City, called "the Hall of Glory" - if in the former Qing Dynasty, it is definitely a great rebellion against the transgression system, and the nine clans are copied and punished all over the door.

Three uninvited guests ascended the stairs from both sides. In the center of the hall supported by golden silk nanmu, the throne of the golden screen, the plaque above is "Taiping Unification", and there are two large characters on the left and right pillarsโ€”โ€”

The Mandate of Heaven kills all the demons and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains on the day of naturalization

Wang Hesi was furious, and the six armies were majestic

Qin Beiyang carefully read these two couplets, and felt that they were nondescript, more like the king of the mountain who fell into the grass.

On the throne was a man, about thirty years old, dressed in a summer tulle shirt, showing off his pectoral muscles, and with a centipede-like scar on the right side of his face.

It turned out to be Ah Hai!

Why is he on the throne? Ah Hai's gaze swept over Qin Beiyang, Ah You and Michael, but fortunately, the nine colors pretending to be the South American mythical beast were the most eye-catching, so that Ah Hai watched its honor with interest.

Ah Hai clapped his hands three times, and a rapid drum sounded outside the main hall, as if the six armies gathered in ancient times, and thousands of troops and horses went out to fight. People kept entering the main hall, including teenagers, young adults, and old people in their fifties and sixties. They either wore wide robes and big sleeves, or a strong suit, or a long robe and horse coat, as if the people of the Tang Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, and the Republic of China gathered together.

These people are assassins!

Qin Beiyang had gone deep into the tiger's den and came to the assassins' lair. Isn't this the vow he's been dreaming of fulfilling for twelve years? A blade assassin, smashing the Yellow Dragon, avenging his adoptive parents.

He recognized a young man dressed in Hanfu, fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slender figure, fluffy lips, white and handsome skin, and his hair tied in a bun, almost the age of the little prince of the Tang Dynasty in the coffinโ€”he was a young Zhongshan.

By the way, Qin Beiyang's father-killing enemy, the assassin's father, is also gone......

Meng Po, who didn't find the "Heavenly Academy", didn't have Lao Jin, the "Tomb Beast Hunter", and didn't have the "Ghost Mask" teacher of the fairy wind Dao bone - where did all these people go?

Ah You, dressed as a middle-aged noblewoman, knelt down on one knee, clasped her hands into fists, and said a string of standard Cantonese: "Lin Jiao'e, Nanyang Penang, on behalf of the Nanyang brothers of the Assassin Alliance, congratulates the new master of Taibai Mountain on his accession to the throne!" โ€

Qin Beiyang also knelt down on one knee and spoke German directly: "German Adolf Luxemburg, on behalf of the European brothers of the League of Assassins, congratulations to the new master of Taibai Mountain on his accession to the throne!" โ€

Ah Hai just nodded slightly, and he didn't know if he understood?

"Angel" Michael said in English: "Michael of the United States, on behalf of the North American brothers of the League of Assassins, congratulations to the new master of Taibai Mountain on his accession to the throne!" โ€

Ah Hai bowed his head and said: "Three of you, please be flat!" I have already heard of the three of them, all of whom are the mainstay of the Assassin Alliance, and today I can see that Taibai Mountain is shining, and Ah Hai Sansheng is lucky! โ€

"Jiao'e received your telegram from all over the world, and came all the way from the South Seas. Adolf and Michael have traveled longer than I do, both to congratulate you on your accession to the throne and to pay homage to the Great Temple of the Far East of the Assassin League, Taibai Mountain, which has been famous in the global Assassin community for half a century. โ€

"The three of you have a heart! Ah Hai is grateful! Originally, I was the hereditary master of the Heavenly Clan. But three months ago, an accident happened, and our master, Ah You, fell off a cliff because he was diligent in practicing the way of assassins, and he died! โ€

When Ah Hai said this, he pretended to shed tears, his eyes were red and swollen, and he performed at the level of an actor.

"What a pity!"

The real Ah You is disguised as Nanyang Lin Jiao'e, with a sad face. Qin Beiyang thought in his heart, this little girl deceived him and Anna with her superb acting skills, and deceived Xu Shuzheng in Yunju Temple in Fangshan, Beijing, and earned the coffin of the little prince of the Tang Dynasty, and now there is this performance, it is really terrible!

"Ah You's accident is really the misfortune of Taibai Mountain! Misfortune of the League of Assassins! The Heavenly Nation has gone through hardships, and now it has been severed, and there is no heir. The little master of Ah You made a rule before his death, and I, Ah Hai, will inherit the position of master, and all the old brothers of Taibai Mountain can testify! โ€
