Zhao Kun in the darkness exuded some kind of weird phosphorescence. It's just that no one is no one after all, and I don't know what happened, the location of the former Star Palace is already a ruined wall, and there are corpses everywhere and no one collects them.

With a sigh, he pulled out a set of camping gear from the storage space of the magic book and found a place to rest.

The next day soon came, and by the time the sky was turning white, the fluttering snowflakes had finally become smaller. When Zhao Kun went to the wharf, it was indeed a scorched earth, there were no boats, and the lake was not frozen.

"In the past, Bodhidharma crossed the river with a reed...... Zhao Kun found a branch, threw it on the water, and then lifted his breath and exerted his strength, and the whole person floated to the lake, "Now I will also have a hand!" ”

Although the Star Lake is vast, Zhao Kun is now making great progress in martial arts, and he only relies on a branch to tread water with Shaolin light skills, and after a short time, he will reach the land.

It's just that Xinghu is at the north and south foot of the end, but Zhao Kun used to be in the south of the mountain, and this road up the mountain was only walked once, so he went around and around for a long time before he went to the bottom of the mountain and found people.

After some questioning, he learned that it was December of the first year of Guangshun.

The first year of Guangshun! The era name of Taizu Guo Wei of the Later Zhou Dynasty!

The Battle of Changshengguan took place in the second year of Qianyou of the Later Han Dynasty, that is, in 949 AD. If the history here follows the rhythm of the history books, then in the third year of Qianyou in the Later Han Dynasty, the young emperor, who was very suspicious of the meritorious generals, conspired with his cronies, and ordered the Ma army to command Guo Chong to kill Xuanhui envoys Wang Jun and Guo Wei; The edict ordered the Zhenning army to kill Li Hongyi, the commander of the guard infantry army, Wang Yin, in order to eradicate the forces of the old generals of the previous dynasty in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, Li Hongyi sent an edict to Wang Yin, and Wang Yin immediately sent someone to report to Guo Wei. Seeing that the matter was urgent, Guo Wei forged an edict and declared that Emperor Yin ordered Guo Wei to kill the generals. So the crowd was indignant and recommended Guo Wei to raise troops to fight against him to "clear the king's side".

Emperor Han saw Guo Wei rebelling and sent troops to resist Guo Wei. Unexpectedly, in the Battle of Qilipo, the Han army was defeated and the emperor was killed. Guo Wei led the troops into Beijing, met with the Empress Dowager Li, let the Empress Dowager listen to the government, and pretended to support the Liu clan Wuning Jiedu Liu Yun as the emperor, and then suddenly heard that the Khitan went south, so he led the army to the north to resist, passing through Shanzhou, the soldiers mutiny yellow robe, Guo Wei returned to Bianliang, forced the Empress Dowager to let him be the "prison of the country", and won the national government. On the first day of the first month of 951 A.D., he was officially called the emperor, the country was called the Great Zhou, the capital was Bianjing, the Yuan Guangshun was changed, and the history was called the Later Zhou.

- So, the imprint has been off for more than three years?

Zhao Kun didn't know what to say, so after asking about the situation, he walked directly towards the densely populated place.

walked all the way, but he was frightened all the way - the people who walked in the rivers and lakes on weekdays didn't have any shadows. Even if it's the beginning of December, even if he stays in various small counties, this is too abnormal!

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, anyway, he was here to avoid the investigators, and there was nothing serious, Zhao Kun simply turned around and headed all the way east.

——————————

On December 16, the Yellow River crossed the Fengling.

When night falls, the frozen river shines with a cold clear light. The daytime crowd of chariots and horses is gone, and occasionally a long wind blows, and clumps of fine snow powder spiral up and swirl on the lonely ice. More than a dozen wooden boats were frozen on the shore, and the ferry crossing was a void.

But as the largest town within a radius of dozens of miles, Fenglingdu brings together travelers from the south to the north. Not far from the riverbank, the Wang Ji Inn is full of people, the upstairs rooms are already full, and even the hall is full of merchants and pedestrians who are eager to go home for the New Year. These people could not rest in peace, so they had to spend the long night around the huge fire pit in the hall and the vast sky.

At night, Zhao Kun, who was dressed in a robe, also pushed the door in, and a group of people in the hall didn't care, just regarded it as a merchant, took a look, and continued to talk nonsense.

As soon as he entered, his gaze fell on the big men in the center of the hall whose faces were red by the firelight. With a large piece of pork shoulder roasted in the fire, a few wine jars thrown around, and the long knives and short guns in their hands, they looked like high-rollers.

Zhao Kun retracted his gaze and sat in a corner where there were few people, but his ears were pricked up, listening carefully to what they were saying. And that group of Jianghu people didn't have any sense of secrecy, and they spoke in a loud voice, and Zhao Kun could easily hear their conversation.

The content of the conversation of these people was very extensive, from the assassination history of Lanzhou (now Puyang, Henan), the Taibao of the inspection school, and the assassination of Hou Guorong of Taiyuan County last month, to the wedding of the disciples of Piaomei Peak in Daxue Mountain in the first half of the year. As he spoke, he ran to the beggars again, and after a while, a group of people began to discuss the beauties in the martial arts again.

"It is said that the Star Palace Palace Master Yin Ji is beautiful, which of you has seen it?"

"Me!" A man's chest slapped loudly, "Last summer, the four major factions led the encirclement and suppression of the Star Palace, and my brother also went." On that day, in the decisive battle at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, I followed behind the Cheng Gang Master. But let me say, that beautiful is beautiful, his martial arts are too high, and he is really ruthless......"

"The beggar gang Guo gang leader, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, the emperor of Dali Duan, the god of Piaomei Peak and Xuefeng, the four of them joined forces, and they could only draw with her. To put it mildly, if it weren't for the large number of us, the battle at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain would not have been won at all. As he spoke, the man slapped his thigh, "In the end, the four heroes who besieged her, many of them died very miserably, that woman was ruthless, and fighting with her was either dead or disabled, and our Cheng gang master also lost a leg......"

"So what? Isn't the Star Palace destroyed yet? A man next to him shook his head and picked up the wine bowl.

"Kill the ghost! You guys still want to destroy the Star Palace? A caustic voice came from the side.

"Fart!" The man threw the bowl off and shouted angrily, "What shameless bastard—"

The man sneered and stood up, "You said that the Star Palace was destroyed, what about the evidence?" At the end of the year, there was a battle in the south, hehe, first there were sects in front of the formation against the water, and then the people in the back were defeated and ambushed, and they were burned by a fire. Guo Yan and Xue Feng were all wounded, and the beggars who rushed to kill them were even more casualties......"

"Put your grandma's stinky fart! Look at the rivers and lakes now, is there a birdman in the Star Palace? Didn't their palace master say that they wanted to dominate the martial arts back then, but now? ”

"Lao Tzu has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and I have never seen such a brazen person. Before the concept of immortality was destroyed, had you ever heard of the name of the Star Palace in the Central Plains martial arts? It was originally a hidden sect, and it was the tradition of people not to see people, but now they can't see the corpse when they die, so they say that the Star Palace has been destroyed...... Hey! ”

The man snorted coldly a few times and continued: "After the war, Shaolin, Jiuhua, and Dafu Linghu Temple brought heroes who could still move into the mountains to search for the Star Palace, leaving only the beggars to guard the wounded. It's just that there are more than 2,000 people, but there is one who walked out of Zhongnan Mountain? I can't see people alive or dead, I don't know if I was destroyed by the Star Palace? ”
