May of the sixth year of Yuanyasu.

Sima Wei once again served as the general of the expedition to the west, replacing Sima Lun, the king of Zhao, to guard Guanzhong, supervise the military of Liangyong and Liangyong, and set up the left and right Changshi and Sima. In August of the same year, the Di and Qiang tribes in Qinzhou and Yongzhou rebelled against the Western Jin Dynasty and supported the Di people Qi Wannian. On November 26, Sima Wei concurrently served as the captain of Xirong, stationed troops well, and supervised the Jianwei General Zhou, Zhenwei General Lu Bo and others in Liumo to crusade against Qi Wannian.

At that time, the wolf smoke in the northwest was everywhere, and due to the repeated defeats of the Jin court, the rebel soldiers pointed directly at Guanzhong. The thieves in Guanzhong swarmed, and the Jin court was helpless, so he adopted the strategy of the emperor to control the thieves with chivalry, and held a martial arts alliance in Luoyang in the name of the court.

In the name of the martial arts alliance, the court called on the heroes of the world to participate in the competition in Luoyang, and the final winner of the competition will be named the leader of the martial arts alliance by the court, calling on the world's martial arts, and setting up the "martial arts list" for ranking.

On the banks of the Yellow River.

After Wu Kang and Zhang Danshen heard about it in the town, they hurriedly sold the firewood and herbs in their hands and rushed to the mountains with the things they bought.

"Strange old man! Blame the old man!"

"Wu Kang, you wait for me!"

The old beggar was basking in the sun in the courtyard, and Wu Kang was heard shouting from afar.

"What are you doing? Reckless? The old beggar looked at Wu Kang, who was carrying various things, and couldn't help frowning.

"Strange old man, good news, good news!"

"What's the good news?"

"Strange old man, I just saw a notice in the town with Danshen that the imperial court is going to hold a martial arts alliance to call on heroes from all over the world to go to Luoyang to compete!

The final winner of the competition can be the leader of the martial arts alliance and command the entire martial arts! And also set up a special "Martial Arts List" to rank the martial arts people!"

"Martial Arts Alliance?" The old beggar took a sip of tea.

"Yes, yes, the Martial Arts Alliance! Martial Arts Alliance Leader! Blame the old man, why don't you call Uncle Shangting to participate in it!" Wu Kang looked extremely excited.

"No, it's a conspiracy of the imperial court!"

At this moment, Guan Shouting entered the courtyard and shook his head firmly to veto.

"Huh? Why? Uncle Ting, haven't you always wanted to revive the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique? What a great opportunity! Wu Kang looked at Guan Shouting inexplicably and asked.

"Nope! Now that the family is in charge, Empress Jia interferes with the dynasty, and His Majesty is mediocre and incompetent!

At the martial arts alliance, there must be a competition among the children of the family! In the world's martial arts, how many righteous people come from the family?

To put it bluntly, the imperial court convened the martial arts alliance for two purposes: one is to allow the children of the family to take this opportunity to become prominent.

Second, although the people in the martial arts are all chivalrous people, but those who practice martial arts are inevitably competitive, and the imperial court set up the "Martial Arts List".

I'm afraid I just want people in the martial arts to kill each other and weaken the world's martial arts. So take this opportunity to control the martial arts in one fell swoop! Let the martial arts warriors become the lackeys of the imperial court!"

"Yes! For example, today, it is the family that is in charge! Which of the courtiers who talk eloquently above the court is not the shadow of the ancestors?

And how can we have a good way out for those mud-legged people? The old beggar was full of emotion.

Wu Kang said when he heard this: "Strange old man, what Uncle Ting said is good. But because of this, we should go to Luoyang and participate in the alliance.

Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind? Since he is the leader of the martial arts alliance in a martial arts competition, the righteous people in the world are not necessarily inferior to the so-called children of the family!"

"This ......"

The old beggar and Guan Shouting listened to Wu Kang's words, but they couldn't answer.

"Yes, I support Wu Kang! Since the imperial court and the family control the martial arts, let the martial arts warriors listen to them.

Then we should let the family and the court see that the people in the martial arts in the world are not loyal to power, status, and even more to anyone! They are only faithful to the righteousness of their hearts!"

The old beggar and Guan Shouting listened to Zhang Danshen's words and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

For "they are faithful only to the righteousness of their own hearts!" This sentence has been circling in the minds of the two!

"Good! In that case, what's the harm in going to Luoyang?!" The old beggar clapped his hands and agreed.

When Guan Shouting heard this, his brows furrowed and said, "I also support going to participate in the alliance, but your body, senior?" ”

"Hahaha! I'm already a man buried in the loess to my neck! The two of them have grown up, and it's time to take them out into the world! ”

After three days, everything is ready to go, and you can leave the next day.

The moon is high in the sky, and the dark clouds are in the sky.

Because they were going to leave tomorrow, Wu Kang and Zhang Danshen went to bed early to recuperate. Only the old beggar and Guan Shouting were still in the small courtyard.

A cool breeze blew, and the old beggar covered his mouth and coughed a few times, and his hands were bloodshot when he spread out.

"Old-timer, are you alright?" Guan Shouting saw the old beggar coughing up blood, and hurriedly asked.

The old beggar waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Every time. When this person is old, his body will also grow old! ”

The white-haired old beggar exudes a sense of helplessness and emotion, and he is really a hero.

"Old-timer, Wu Kang has been practicing martial arts for three or four years! Whether it is swordsmanship, knife skills or punches and feet, the foundation is deep enough. Why don't you let me teach him to cultivate internal strength? Guan Shouting threw out his own questions.

The old beggar sighed and said, "Shouting, since you asked!" The old beggar won't hide it from you!

When I met Wu Kang, Wu Kang's whole body was shocked and he was dying. But fortunately, I found that his tendons and acupoints were sealed by a special method, and I had only one breath left.

Later, when I tried to open up its meridians with internal force, I found that after my true qi entered the gas, a part of it would always disappear without a trace!"

"What does the senior mean is that Wu Kang is able to absorb true qi, but his meridians are locked by someone?!"

After Guan Shouting heard this, he felt a little incredible. The old beggar nodded undeniably.

"Senior, it stands to reason that all the meridians and acupoints are locked, so won't this person become a waste? Wu Kang, this kid, is alive and kicking, like a person who has nothing to do, it's very strange! ”

"Yes! When I was younger, I traveled all over the world, but I never saw anyone like Wu Kang! That's why I didn't let him cultivate his internal strength, even if he cultivated, I was afraid that it would have little effect!"

…………

Luoyang City, Kunning Palace.

"Niangniang, the news of reporting the Martial Arts Alliance has been released! The people in the martial arts are already ready to move! ”

Jia Nanfeng looked at the white-haired old man in front of him, took a sip of tea and said, "Okay!" There is really a national teacher! The most reassuring thing in the future is the so-called Green Forest Knight. The strategy of the national teacher can be described as killing three birds with one stone!

It's just that I heard that this green forest knight is more important than righteousness, and I don't know if they will be fooled. ”

The old man smiled when he heard this: "Please rest assured that although the people in the martial arts value righteousness, they are also good at fighting and competitive!" This time, even if many people are not here for the martial arts alliance master.

But the ranking on the "Martial Arts List" is even more attractive! When the time comes, Niangniang will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and she will be able to sit back and relax!"

"That's good, I'll wait for the good news from the national teacher!"

…………

The red sun of June gives people a hot and incomparable power.

The summer breeze in June gives people a feeling of incomparable clarity.

The wind blows in the mountains and forests, making a sound in the leaves.

"Whew! It's so cool! ”

Wu Kang felt the cool soothing, listened to the collision of the woods, and the previous boredom and heat no longer existed.

"This kid!"

The old beggar and Guan Shouting behind him couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw this.

Compared with Wu Kang, Zhang Danshen always pays attention to the flowers and plants in the mountains, and sometimes stops to pick those that can be used for medicine. Place it in the basket behind you.

Soon, several people left the mountain. Wu Kang came to the fork in the road and asked loudly, "Strange old man, where are we going next?" ”

"Anmin County!"
