008 Clever Skill

After walking more than ten miles after leaving the city gate, Xu Jin changed Li Xiang's clothes again, and after putting on another look, he continued to walk all the way south. It's just that what puzzled Li Xiang was that the little maid in the carriage had been following them. After asking Xu Jin, I learned that he bought this little maid for ten taels of silver, and gave it to Li Xiang in the future, not only to serve Li Xiang all the way to Gusu, but also to decide what to do with it in the future.

This "gift" made Li Xiang feel unaware. When he stayed at home and read online articles, he thought about how to make a fortune with what he would use if he crossed over, and then get a lot of beauties to serve him. But when he really wore it, he was a little afraid and didn't dare to take that step. He even refused Xu Jin to take him to the Qinglou, let alone get a little maid to serve him. But that doesn't mean he doesn't want to, Xu Jin got such a little girl without his consent, he said it was not good, but in fact he enjoyed it very much.

According to Xu Jin's meaning, this little girl is still useful now, let her serve Li Xiang. When it's useless, just find a place to sell it, or simply kill it with a knife. But this kind of disposal method is something that Li Xiang can never agree with, it is a human life, not to mention that the little girl is only ten years old, and the flowers and bones are average, how can she be so bad? You have to take good care of it. In order to show his attention to her, Li Xiang also gave this girl who was not stunning, but also a very small jasper, a very poetic name, called Red Sleeves. It's not that he is talented, but plagiarized from a certain martial arts novel.

Red Sleeves was only thirteen years old, and he was sold into the Qinglou since he was a child. But she has been very sensible since she was a child, and she is very resistant to Qing-Lou, and she can already pick up customers at the age of thirteen, but she refuses to obey to the death, and she refuses to give in when she is beaten to death. There's no way to take her, she's not the kind of indispensable Oiran blank, so just sell her again. It just so happened that Xu Jin needed a maid, and Xu Jin was already obscene, and she didn't look like a rich one at first glance, so she sold it to Xu Jin cheaply in order to make the little girl feel bad.

After getting along for a period of time, Li Xiang found that the little girl with red sleeves was really good, even if she knew that he and Xu Jin were both fugitives, she had no intention of being afraid, and she was very dedicated to serving people. She never complained of being tired of the bumps along the way, and she was still diligent. This made Li Xiang feel even more pity for her, and decided to find a good home for her in the future.

At first, their journey was smooth, but after two days, there were occasional pursuers. This made Li Xiang very puzzled, and asked Xu Jin: "What did you steal from that general, we all escaped so far and he still chased after him?" ”

Xu Jin was also very depressed and said, "I don't know either! As soon as I opened the hidden compartment, I rang the brass bell, and I didn't care to see what was inside, so I grabbed a handful and ran away. I've seen it in the past few days, and it's nothing special! ”

Li Xiang was also quite curious, and said, "Then you take out the things and take a look, I haven't even seen what you get." ”

Xu Jin casually untied a very shriveled package from his waist and threw it to Li Xiang, Li Xiang took it and opened it to see that there were only four things, and they didn't look like they were very valuable. One is a jade Ruyi, the jade is warm and green, it is a good thing at first glance, but it is worth 1,800 yuan, which is not a top baby; The second is a dagger, inlaid with various gems, which looks magnificent, but it is also only valuable, nothing special; The third is a brand that can't be seen of any material, and a large eagle is carved on it with a yin carving technique, and even the money is not worth much; The fourth is a book, with five big characters written on the cover, "Song of the True Avenue", the words are written vigorously and powerfully, with a special charm, but it is not very important, right? Although this is the secret book of the Quanzhen School, this is the basic martial art of the Quanzhen School, and almost everyone in the thousands of disciples in the sect can recite it, and it is not very important.

I looked at it several times, but I didn't see that these four things were important, worthy of such a fanfare hunted down by the Mongol generals, was it just because of the loss of face?

Just when Li Xiang was puzzled, the red sleeves next to him seemed to want to speak and stopped. Li Xiang keenly noticed her expression and asked, "What, what did you find?" If you have something to say, don't hide. ”

Red Sleeves hesitated for a moment before saying, "Hmm...... This jade Ruyi may be a treasure given by the emperor. ”

Li Xiang was stunned for a moment and said, "Gifted? How do you know? ”

Red Sleeves pointed to an inconspicuous pattern on Yu Ruyi and said: "This pattern is the mark of the imperial thing, but this is the imperial thing of the Song Dynasty." ”

She didn't finish her words, but Li Xiang still understood what she meant. This thing belongs to the Song Dynasty, if it is in the house of the minister of the Song Dynasty, it must be a great treasure, who dares to lose the things given by the emperor? Isn't that looking for death? But the imperial things of the Song Dynasty in the hands of a Mongolian general were definitely not given to him by the emperor of the Song Dynasty, even if they were, the Mongolian general would not take it seriously, and he would not have to chase it back endlessly.

It's just that Red Sleeves, a little girl bought from Qing-Lou, actually knows the things given by the Song Dynasty, and it seems that the origin is not simple. But Li Xiang didn't have the heart to ask, people were already miserable, why should she be reminded of her tragedy? Let it pass.

Since I don't understand the research, I simply don't study it. It's just that he has nothing to do, and Li Xiang looks at "The Song of the True Avenue". The Quanzhen sect is known as the Xuanmen Zhengzong, and Li Xiangxue's Shaolin martial arts are the leaders of Buddhism, and now there is an opportunity to see what the difference is between the two martial arts.

Not to mention, there is a difference between the ideas of Taoism and Buddhism, and it can also be reflected in martial arts. Buddhism's martial arts pay attention to the magnificence and righteousness, and the Taoist gate is a combination of odds and squares, and it is impossible to say who is more intelligent, but it can only be said that each has its own merits. Originally, it would be best if the two could be compatible, but Li Xiang's Buddhist martial arts have taken root in his body, and it is a little awkward to practice Taoist martial arts again. And there are a lot of Taoist terms in it, and Li Xiang doesn't understand it, so it's even more difficult to practice. Fortunately, this is only the basic martial arts of the Daomen, and there is nothing to be sorry for not practicing.

Although you can't practice, it's good to use it to relieve boredom. In particular, "The Song of the True Avenue" is all seven words and one sentence, which is catchy to read, and you can memorize it after reading it a few times. Li Xiang simply memorized it and said it, maybe he could use it in the future.

After memorizing the full text, Li Xiang studied the handwriting on the book again. His predecessor Jueyuan, who was a scholar, wrote very well, and many virtuous monks in Shaolin Temple also wrote well. But the words in this book, although they can't be more beautiful than theirs, are more flavorful than theirs. The last time you saw this very flavorful word, where did it come from? …… By the way, it's "Jiuyang True Scripture"!

Thinking of this, Li Xiang couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, could it be that the person who wrote this book has the same level as the master who wrote the "Jiuyang True Scripture"? Could it be that this is Wang Chongyang's true handiwork?

This made Li Xiang excited, Wang Chongyang's "Song of the True Avenue" shouldn't be just a basic martial arts, right? According to the routine of martial arts novels, what must be hidden in it, such as ...... "Innate Gong"?

So Li Xiang searched over and over again, first looking through the sunlight to see if there was a shadow, then looking for a mezzanine, and finally getting some water to soak the pages of the book to see if there was any handwriting visible. It's a pity that after tossing and turning, he didn't find anything, which made him quite frustrated.

After Red Sleeves said a few more words just now, he was worried that Li Xianghui would ask endless questions and dig out her old bottom. Unexpectedly, Li Xiang didn't ask anything, which made her feel a lot more relieved, and she was also closer to Li Xiang, the considerate new owner. Now seeing Li Xiang pondering this book, he also looked at it. When Li Xiang had studied enough and threw it aside, she also picked it up and looked at it. After turning a few pages, she suddenly rubbed her fingers and said, "Childe, there seems to be something on this page." ”

Originally, Red Sleeves was going to call him "master", but Li Xiang felt that he was still young, and calling him "master" seemed too old. But being called "young master" was suspected of pretending to be tender, so he compromised and called the coquettish title of "childe".

Hearing what Red Sleeves said, Li Xiang hurriedly took the book again, rubbed it with his fingers and looked at it again, and sure enough, it was stained with a faint layer of almost invisible white powder, if it weren't for Red Sleeves' careful heart, Li Xiang wouldn't have noticed it at all.

"What is this?" Li Xiang sniffed suspiciously, licked it again, and couldn't tell what the ingredients were, so he had to turn his head and ask Red Sleeves. It's a pity that Red Sleeves also shook his head, saying that he didn't know.

Xu Jin, who was driving the carriage, was separated from them by a curtain, and naturally heard their conversation, and immediately opened the curtain excitedly and said, "Show me!" ”

Li Xiang handed him the book, and he appraised it for a long time, but he didn't see what it was, so he had to say: "I guess what kind of medicine it is, go to the next town, find an old Chinese medicine doctor, maybe you can tell it." ”

Because he was anxious to explore the hidden secrets of this "True Avenue Song", Xu Jin didn't care about the horsepower, and hurried to the next town to find a medical center with the largest faΓ§ade. Red Sleeves carefully shook off the powder on the page, wrapped it in a fine satin handkerchief, and let Xu Jin take it for identification.

Not long after, Xu Jin happily ran back with a small medicine bag, thinking that Li Xiang and they lit up, and then jumped into the carriage and galloped out of the town. Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Jin stopped the carriage, poured the medicine in the medicine bag into the kettle he carried, and waited until the medicine powder was fully dissolved, and then used a clean cotton cloth dipped in the medicine to smear it on the page.

This time, the handwriting finally appeared, and the three words at the head were the "Innate Skills" that Li Xiang was looking forward to!
