232 heroic feats

"Emperor of Liao, Yelu Hongji is here!"

As soon as Meng Xiuyuan's words came out, the sound shook all over the world, so that tens of thousands of Liao troops could hear it clearly.

However, unlike the previous times, those Khitan soldiers who were originally wild and had been responding to Meng Xiuyuan with angry roars were standing in place one by one at this moment.

Even Song Jun, who was beating the drum and cheering when the Yanmen Gate was closed, involuntarily stopped his movements because of this.

In a huge valley, except for the occasional neighing of war horses, there is no sound.

The banner of the Liao army, which is more than two zhang long, is erected upright, and there is Yelu Hongji, who is powerless to struggle, on the top, so that the Liao soldiers within a radius of dozens of zhang can see it clearly.

Although the Liao army in the distance could not see Yelu Hongji's clothes and face on the military flag, they saw Meng Xiuyuan's miraculous martial arts before, and then saw the motionless appearance of his comrades in the front military array, but they also knew that this was indeed the case, and they could not fake it.

For a while, Meng Xiuyuan's shout not only echoed in the valley, but also echoed in the hearts of tens of thousands of Liao soldiers, making them at a loss.

Only the dozens of personal guards who were originally guarding Yelu Hongji's side still rushed towards Meng Xiuyuan desperately, wanting to recapture Yelu Hongji.

However, the spirit of loyalty and courage is still difficult to smooth out the gap in reality, and in a few breaths, these dozens of people have fallen to the ground, injured and unable to move.

"You...... What exactly are you going to do? ”

Seeing this scene, Yelu Hongji, who was at the top of the flagpole, felt cold in his heart, and couldn't help but ask Meng Xiuyuan in a trembling voice.

Meng Xiuyuan looked up at him, but he didn't answer, but raised the military flag himself, picked up Yelu Hongji, and walked in the direction of Yanmen Pass.

The soldiers of the Liao army on the road along the way behaved differently, some wanted to come forward to fight and block, some stopped in place and could not move, and some were weak and slowly retreated.

But no matter what, they couldn't pose any obstacle to Meng Xiuyuan. Although he was missing a hand to raise the flag, as when he came, Meng Xiuyuan was still in the Liao army as if he was in a no-man's land.

After all, this Yelu Hongji is an extraordinary person, seeing this scene, but he has not yet given up, and shouted loudly at the surrounding Liao army soldiers, saying some official titles, gold and silver beauties and other rewards, telling those Liao soldiers around him not to hesitate and come to save him quickly.

Meng Xiuyuan smiled slightly when he heard this, and he didn't stop it, but just used the guiding force method in "Taijiquan", and every time he repelled a Liao soldier who rushed up, he also took advantage of the situation to lead this anti-shock force to the military flag in his hand.

Under the transmission of strength, every time a Liao army was injured, Yelu Hongji at the top of the flag also wailed, only to feel that his internal organs and limbs and joints were as if they were about to be scattered.

After a lot of times, Yelu Hongji couldn't stand the toss, and he couldn't care about the emperor's dignity, so he hurriedly changed his words, shouting loudly to tell all the Liao soldiers around him to lay down their weapons and not stop Meng Xiuyuan.

When the Liao generals heard this, they did not dare to disobey their emperor's orders, and hurriedly sent orders one after another, telling everyone to retreat and make way for Meng Xiuyuan.

In this way, a smooth road slowly appeared in front of Meng Xiuyuan, and tens of thousands of Liao troops were lined up on both sides, as if Moses had divided the sea.

When the soldiers on the Yanmen Gate saw this scene, they were all dumbfounded, and their hearts were very unreal.

They never dreamed that in their lifetime, they would be able to see the Liao army bow to a Song man like this.

"Quick, pass the order, continue to beat the drums, and welcome our Song warriors back to the battle!"

The city lord will look at the Liao Emperor who is carrying the banner of Meng Xiuyuan from afar, and only feel that the great merit is coming towards him, so he hurriedly ordered the command.

A moment later, the war drums on the Yanmen Gate rumbled again, accompanied by Meng Xiuyuan's unhurried pace, as if every stroke was knocking on the hearts of tens of thousands of Liao soldiers.

In the cold wind in the early morning, the Liao army flag in Meng Xiuyuan's hand was unfurled in the wind, and a pair of sun and moon were painted on the flag, and the color was bright red.

The Khitan people believed in shamanism and worshiped the heavens, earth, sun and moon very religiously, and even the Khitan emperor was also called the Emperor of Heaven, that is, he advertised himself as the embodiment of the sun god.

But at this moment, on the supreme sun and moon flag, hanging is their "Heavenly Emperor", such a scene, so that every Liao soldier who saw it, the heart of the heart is as shocking as if the sky has fallen.

In the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, Meng Xiuyuan held the flag and Yelu Hongji all the way, passing through the long Liao army array until the front of Yanmen Pass.

"What's your name?"

Yelu Hongji on the flag was silent all the way, and when Meng Xiuyuan stopped, he suddenly turned around with difficulty and asked out loud.

"Meng Xiuyuan."

"Okay, Meng Yingying, your bravery is unparalleled in the world, I admire you very much.

Today's events have not only made me lose face, but also made my three armies of the Liao State lose their sharpness.

I returned to Daliao in the north, but I had no intention or ability to organize the southward expedition to the Song Dynasty for the rest of my life.

According to the rules of my Khitans, I am captured by you at the moment, and I can redeem myself with money, cattle and sheep.

I know that you may not be interested in these mundane things, but my Liao country is strong and rich, and half of the world is rich, as long as you open your mouth, no matter what rare martial arts and rare treasures, I can offer ......"

There is only one death in the eternal hardship, Yelu Hongji is still unwilling to give up at this time, and he opened his mouth to persuade Meng Xiuyuan.

Meng Xiuyuan shook his head silently when he heard this, and instead of talking to Yelu Hongji, he was lucky enough to be true and opened his mouth to the tens of thousands of Liao troops in front of him:

"Yelu Hongji, the emperor of Liao, tore up the covenant for his own selfish desires, used swords and soldiers in vain, and violated the border of my Great Song Dynasty......"

As he spoke, the banner in Meng Xiuyuan's hand shook, and Yelu Hongji was immediately thrown out and fell heavily in front of the Liao army.

In front of him, the soldiers of the Liao army hurriedly wanted to go up to help, but they heard the sound of "whoosh" breaking through the air, and the next moment, the big flag in Meng Xiuyuan's hand had been obliquely inserted into Yelu Hongji's chest, penetrating his body, and it was still a foot deep in the ground.

Along with the banner came Meng Xiuyuan's thunderous voice:

"His sin is unforgivable, and I will slay it today.

If there is a repeat offender in the future, it will be difficult to save his life with thousands of troops! ”

As Yelu Hongji said before his death, the Liao soldiers at this time had already been exhausted.

Seeing that the emperor was killed in front of him, the tens of thousands of Liao troops immediately fell into chaos, the soldiers and horses were panicked, and the generals hurriedly issued orders, but it was difficult to unify, and the troops became more and more confused.

After a long time, these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses gradually settled down. However, when they saw that Meng Xiuyuan was still standing in front of Yanmen Pass, they didn't dare to make any rash moves.

Hurriedly collected the body for Yelu Hongji, and the leather drum horn in the army had already sounded, and immediately tens of thousands of people in the front team turned into a rear team, and the sound of hooves sounded, and retreated to the north.

When the Yanmen was closed, the Song army saw this scene, and immediately thundered with joy, opened the city gate, discharged the guard of honor, and led by a group of generals, hundreds of people poured out of the city gate together, wanting to welcome Meng Xiuyuan, a great hero, into the city.

No, after they left the city, it was already empty in front of the Yanmen Gate.

In the wind and yellow sand, I will never see that green shirt again.

……

……

"Meng Gongzi, you ...... You were too powerful, too majestic! ”

On the top of the mountain, Wang Yuyan saw Meng Xiuyuan's swaying figure from a distance, her beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, and she was emotional, contrary to her usual dignified and elegant appearance, she pulled Meng Xiuyuan's sleeve and praised.

"Miss Wang is polite."

Meng Xiuyuan was a little surprised when he saw this, so he could only smile and answer to her.

Wang Yuyan also realized that she was too excited and lost her rules at this time, her face turned red, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand to let go of Meng Xiuyuan's sleeve, and at the same time opened her mouth to continue to explain to hide her embarrassment:

"Meng Gongzi, before today, I never thought that a person who practiced martial arts could change the fate of a country with his own strength.

A hero like you should be unprecedented and unprecedented......"

When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands, not daring to accept Wang Yuyan's reputation.

No, Xiao Feng, who was originally silent on the side, also opened his mouth and echoed at this moment:

"Brother Meng, don't be modest.

What you have done is indeed a heroic feat.

Killing the Liao Emperor alone brought peace to the two countries for at least one or two decades.

Whether it is the ordinary people of the Song State or the Liao State, they should thank you for ......"

As he spoke, Xiao Feng took two steps forward, stretched out his hand, and after a little hesitation, finally patted Meng Xiuyuan's shoulder gently.

"Back then, when I first saw you at the foot of that Shaomuro Mountain, you were still a slender and thin child like a bean sprout. He followed me all day long, asking me to learn kung fu.

Who would have thought that in just over ten years, he would grow into a chivalrous man who stood up to the sky and the earth and served the country and the people.

Xiao Feng's life respects heroes and cherishes heroes...... It is a rare blessing to have a brother like you in this life. ”

Meng Xiuyuan was stunned when he heard this, and looked up at Brother Xiao, but saw that although there was a slight hint of complexity in his eyes, it was more of a sincere appreciation.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel a warm heart, and he also reached out and patted Xiao Feng's shoulder, but he didn't know what to say.

On the side, Wang Yuyan was exquisite, she understood Meng Xiuyuan's mood at this time, knew why he didn't speak, and immediately opened her mouth to lead the topic away for him:

"Xiao Daxia, I think you are still conservative in what you say.

As far as Meng Gongzi's ability to kill the enemy general in the army just now was revealed, as long as he was still alive, the Liao State would never dare to go south to invade the Song State again.

And Meng Gongzi was only in his early twenties at this time, and he had practiced the three divine skills of the Xiaoyao School, and he was almost immortal.

Even if those enemy countries forgot the prestige of Meng Gongzi, he only needed to do it again as he did today.

So if you want me to say, maybe in one or two hundred years, there will be no war in this Great Song Dynasty......"

When Xiao Feng heard this, he only felt that what Wang Yuyan said was indeed reasonable, and nodded solemnly, his face was full of joy, and he didn't think it was an exaggeration at all.

However, Meng Xiuyuan himself listened, but immediately shook his head and waved his hand, and said to Wang Yuyan:

"Miss Wang thinks highly of me, I have neither the ability nor the strength.

What happens to this Song Kingdom in the future still depends on its own ......"

While speaking, Meng Xiuyuan turned his head to look at the Yanmen Pass at the bottom of the mountain, and heard the excited celebrations from the soldiers of the Song Army in the pass, paused for a moment, and then continued:

"It's as if I was on my way and saw a man trapped by a jackal on the side of the road.

I can chase away the jackals for him, and I can even scream and scare away the other beasts in the woods.

But tomorrow, after we are separated, if he dies of illness, starvation, drowning, I can't care about it......"

"Ah......h

Wang Yuyan snorted lightly when she heard this, her face was a little surprised, and she couldn't understand how Meng Xiuyuan could say such a thing.

However, Xiao Feng on the side understood what Meng Xiuyuan meant, laughed, and explained to Wang Yuyan:

"Miss Wang, what Brother Meng said is good. After all, national affairs are not something that one or two of us can completely manage.

Who knows what calamities will happen to the two countries in the future.

However, this does not mean that what Brother Meng did is meaningless.

It's like a person who can live to be 180 years old if he is too old, and if you look at it thousands of years later, there is no big difference between dying a few decades early and dying a few decades later.

But when we see that man in distress, can we think, 'This man is going to die,' and then not save him?

It is enough to do what is in accordance with your conscience to the best of your ability......"

Hearing this, Wang Yuyan nodded, thoughtful.

Subsequently, the three of them did not stay long on the mountain peak outside the Yanmen Pass, and after chatting a few words, they said goodbye to each other.

Wang Yuyan and Meng Xiuyuan wanted to go back to the Tianshan Vulture Palace together, while Xiao Feng wanted to go back to Saiwai and continue to herd cattle and sheep with Azhu.

At the time of parting, Meng Xiuyuan and Xiao Feng didn't say much, they only bowed their hands to each other, and each said "meet again in the future", and then turned around and left.

……

Half a month later, in the Vulture Palace, Tianshan Tong's grandmother entertained Meng Xiuyuan well under the pretext of "not wanting to be favored by others", and insisted on leaving him behind and letting him live in this Vulture Palace for a longer time.

It was difficult to resist the hospitality, Meng Xiuyuan had to agree, and lived in this vulture palace for another two months.

During these two months, he spent most of his time in the stone chamber of the Vulture Palace, studying the remaining exercises of the Loose Sect carved on the stone walls.

The result was quite gratifying, and in just two months, Meng Xiuyuan gained a lot.

Of course, this is not to say that he suddenly opened his mind and greatly increased his martial arts comprehension, but after absorbing most of the pure spirit qi of the Kunlun Green Valley, his true qi was reborn, and many of the originally strange and difficult to achieve content on the stone wall became reasonable.

Obviously, these predecessors of the Carefree Sect have indeed created so many unfathomable kung fu on the basis of absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.

In addition to practicing, Meng Xiuyuan also had a lot of exchanges with girls such as Wang Yuyan and Mei Lan Zhuju.

Mei Lan Zhuju didn't say anything, the four of them pestered Meng Xiuyuan, and most of the time they were playful.

But between Wang Yuyan and Meng Xiuyuan, what Meng Xiuyuan said was a very meaningful business.

This girl is very knowledgeable in kung fu, if she summarizes and integrates her feelings, she will definitely be able to reach a higher realm, and even steadily overwhelm the two elders of Tianshan Tong and Li Qiushui.

However, she doesn't seem to have much interest in martial arts, and she has very little time to practice every day, but most of the time she stays in the library of the Vulture Palace, reading some miscellaneous books such as arithmetic and astrological phenomena to kill time.

Meng Xiuyuan happened to talk to her about mathematics, physics, chemistry and the like in the later life, but I didn't want to, this girl was actually quite interested in these things, and her mind was quick and thorough.

Seeing her like this, Meng Xiuyuan simply took advantage of his spare time to teach the only bit of knowledge in his mind.

Wang Yuyan Bingxue is smart and unforgettable, and can be said to be the most worry-free apprentice Meng Xiuyuan has ever taught. Even if the logic of his own thinking was a little confused when he narrated it, and this girl listened to it, he only needed to turn it in his mind to be able to understand it clearly.

In the last few days, Meng Xiuyuan actually felt that there was nothing to teach, but Wang Yuyan could often say some opinions, which made Meng Xiuyuan recall the memories that had been forgotten in his previous life.

Seeing this situation, Meng Xiu couldn't help but be very pleased, and only told this Wang girl that if she succeeds in studying these studies in the future, she might as well write a book and teach a few apprentices to pass on the knowledge.

Wang Yuyan was full of promises.

At this point, Meng Xiuyuan had no reason to stay, regardless of the retention of Tianshan Tong and Meilan Zhuju, he immediately said goodbye, went down the ethereal peak of Tianshan Mountain, and headed south.

It's time to say goodbye.
