Volume 1, The Wind Rises in Shu Chapter 19, The Wayblocker
After Shu County was divided into two places, Chengdu Mansion and Tongchuan Mansion were less than 100 miles apart, and the imperial court arranged the civil officials who were not on the right way, so that they could monitor each other and be diligent and honest officials at the same time.
Because it is from south to north, it is certainly inconvenient to go against the current, and there are fewer tasks such as suppressing bandits and killing along the way, Zhao Zhengli and the three of them hired a carriage to go north to Chengdu Mansion on the official road, and they were also fresh along the way, and they tasted food and wine.
The only deficiency is that Fei Yin is very good, and he can barely get to the government office if he is careful and thrifty, so the three of them are relaxed.
Driving a carriage is slower than riding a horse and galloping, but it is better to be comfortable, so that the buttocks and legs are exempted from suffering, so the time is more than doubled, fortunately, it is not a special hurry, and it takes three days to arrive at Huanglong Guxi leisurely, about ten miles away from Chengdu Mansion.
The ancient river of Huanglong is built according to the river, the river water flows back into a beach for thousands of years, and the shrubs and willows along the river form a piece, which has a unique scenery.
Since ancient times, there is a metaphor of "the Yellow Dragon crosses the Qingjiang River, and the real dragon is hidden in it", which means that the ancient stream of the Yellow Dragon is flat, the river water is clear and slow, and the river water that crosses is roundabout and resembles the scene of "the dragon turning back".
The three of them don't need to ask, the town market of the ancient trees and ancient streets is full of shouting, among which the yellow catfish is the most unique, caught in the water of the Qingxi River, the meat is fine and fat, the key is that there are no scales and thorns in the backbone, and the Bijia sisters who like to eat fish are the most tempting.
As for why he loves fish and meat, Zhao Daochang also asked, and his response was: "Red meat grows fat, and white meat is full." ".
Red meat is cut into bright red meat, such as pigs, sheep, dogs, etc., this kind of red meat eats too much to ensure that it grows fat, so red meat grows fat.
On the contrary, the white meat is cut into white meat, such as chicken, duck, fish and other things, chickens and ducks can only be regarded as half white meat, and the real white is still fish, and it can not grow two taels of meat when eaten with an open belly, which is the first choice for people who love beauty and food.
And the yellow catfish in Huanglong Guxi is not only white meat, but also scaleless and thornless, and the two of them can't resist the temptation.
The three of them did not hesitate for a moment, found the most popular wine shop, asked for a few catties of yellow catfish, divided into two ways to eat, one is to eat the local unique tempeh steamed, and the other is to cook a pot with fermented old altar vegetables, so the two are the most popular among diners.
Later, I asked for the famous bean curd, and half a pork knuckle, not that one elbow could not be eaten, but the funds were limited, and only half of it could be eaten.
The three of them are expected to drive more than ten miles into Chengdu Mansion overnight after a feast in Huanglong Guxi, after all, there is not much money for accommodation.
After the meal, the three of them drove a carriage to visit the night river scene, which was a rare leisurely moment, and the Bi family sisters rarely took the initiative to ask Zhao Daochang about his future plans, and this question confused the young Daochang, he never considered it.
No surprises; At the end of this trip, he went back and continued to practice in the mountain gate, cooperating with Yuan Daoren's senior brother inside and outside to break the rules and precepts, drinking wine and eating meat, and watching beautiful women.
On the other hand, the Bi family sisters seem to have become afloat, the sect is gone, there are no relatives, and there are vast rivers and lakes; Wandering the world?
It's not impossible to connect to the mountain gate, as long as you are cheeky and coquettish in front of the senior brother in charge......
Thinking of this, Zhao Dao Changsheng stopped.
To be exact, he was interrupted by life, he pulled the reins to stop the carriage, and the Bi sisters also lifted the curtain to check.
Driving the carriage away from Huanglong Ancient Creek, the dim lantern was faint like a firefly in the dark night, and through the light faintly saw a figure dressed in white at the end of the night, riding a black horse and standing quietly in the center, the robe danced in the night wind, and the folding fan in his hand shook gently.
At a distance of less than 100 meters, the three of them also recognized the roadblocker, who was Zhao Tianshi's beloved disciple Song Maoling, who asked in Situ Jianzhuang a month ago.
I also remembered the spoken words he left behind at the end of the question, saying that he would wait for Zhao Zhengli to finish dealing with Shu and then learn how to turn the Dao.
Zhao Daochang didn't take it seriously at the beginning, but now the situation is obvious, this royal prince is serious, and he does what he says.
Without waiting for Zhao Zhengli to speak, Song Maoling spoke at intervals: "First congratulate you on your dedication to the troubles of Shu, and then congratulate you on becoming the seat of the Yellow Master of the Heavenly Master's Mansion." ”
is still in a lonely mood, his eyes are empty, the first half of the sentence Zhao Daochang can understand, what is the second half of the sentence? Why did you serve in the Heavenly Master's Mansion for no reason? Why is it still the minimum seat?
Song Maoling didn't explain too much, in his opinion, everything can be understood when he arrives at the mansion, he came here late at night not to report good news, but to learn the Tao, after tonight, Zhao Zhengli is official family has to find a suitable reason to learn again.
Finding a reason is Song Maoling's disdainful criticism, in his opinion, he should be like a Jianghu person, happy and happy, just fight, find a bunch of reasons to pave the way for a fight, how tiring is it?
This is also the reason why he is tired of the intrigue between the officials of the temple and the court, greeting him with a smile on his face, and cursing the eighteenth generation of people behind his back, why bother? Wouldn't it be easy to fight without dying?
He didn't give the stunned Zhao Daochang time to think, and said bluntly: "Are you ready?" ”
The tone was cold and revealing a coercion that could not be refused.
Seeing that he was so crisp, Daoist Zhao pulled out a thin sword of the Bi family sisters from the carriage, and the two sisters knew that this battle was inevitable, and stared nervously at the handsome and serious white-faced Taoist priest: "Beware!" ”
Zhao Zhengli, who was originally serious, suddenly smiled at the nervous two sisters: "The two sisters' concern trail has been recorded, and the three of us have been together for a long time, so why not actually reward the trail with two red lips as a pre-war encouragement?" ”
The Bijia sisters were nervous and stunned for a moment, and then their cheeks flushed, and when they were pondering whether to reward the white-faced Taoist priest, Zhao Daochang laughed: "This way has broken the ban and can't stop for a while, the two sisters should stay and try another day." ”
The two sisters saw the teasing from his eyes, and they were about to smash him with their fists, but who knew that the evil sinner had already left a few meters with laughter, and the angry two sisters stomped their feet, except for the aftertaste and anger, the tension was gone.
In the dark night, the river was murmuring, and Song Maoling, who was dressed in a white robe, didn't know why he was laughing, he didn't ask, he landed on horseback in the air, and then closed the folding fan and approached with arrows, the speed was extremely fast, leaving an afterimage in the night sky.
Zhao Zhengli appeared in front of him in an instant, and then swept Zhao Daochang's face door with a sharp weapon with a closed fan, Daochang's head leaned back to avoid, kicked his feet forward, cut off his further movements, twisted his body and elbowed him to the side, Song Maoling blocked with both hands on his wrists, and swept his legs to attack him, Zhao Daochang raised his foot to resolve it with the soles of his feet, and then poked him at the waist with the hilt of his sword.
Song Maoling's eyes quickly opened the folding fan and rotated from his waist, the folding fan shook the hilt of the sword like a divine weapon, and then rotated from Song Maoling's wrist in a fancy way; Cut to Zhao Zhengli's jaw and neck, although it was a false move that was blocked by Zhao Daochang's sword, but it also gave Song Maoling the momentum to gather a punch of strength, and smashed it towards his chest, Zhao Daochang held his palm to resist, one punch and one palm had more than a thousand catties of strength, and the two of them each bounced away a distance of several meters, leaving long scratches on the soles of their shoes on the ground.
The hand-to-hand hand-to-hand combat came to an end, and Zhao Zhengli did not draw his sword from beginning to end, which could not be regarded as taking advantage of Song Maoling's short weapon.
The two looked at each other in the air, and Zhao Zhengli shouted: "Jasper, borrow a sword!" ”
The Bijia sisters hurriedly threw another thin sword at the two of them, Zhao Daochang grabbed it with true qi and threw it at Song Maoling, just by this empty space was shocked by the people present, Song Maoling caught the thin sword for the first time with a solemn expression, and then pinned the folding fan to his waist, and removed the jade pendant, brocade and other obstructive things.
His calm eyes showed a hint of excitement: "You are strong!" ”
Zhao Daochang smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Haven't you tried it yet!" ”
The two of them froze their sword eyebrows, bounced at the same time, and drew their swords to meet them, the cold light was shining, like a sharp claw tearing hell in the night sky, only to hear the "bang" sound of the collision of weapons, and the "humming" sword sound, the two moved and changed, engaged for nearly a hundred rounds, every move and sword are pure, fighting is skill, sword moves, and no trace of true qi is injected.
From the physical body to the moves, and then to the true qi, compare them one by one, and so on; Correcting oneself is the same respect for the opponent.
The only pity is that the light is dim, and the Bi sisters can't learn sword moves.
After dozens of moves, the two of them gradually poured into the true qi, and the sword flew sideways; The aftermath was full of waves, superimposed from a few meters to dozens of meters, and the Bijia sisters who watched it were addicted, and this was the first time they watched the grandmaster fight calmly, from the inside out; From top to bottom, it's so cool and sophisticated.
Still sighing that the night was too dark, and I couldn't comprehend the sword moves from it, but fortunately, I could feel a lot of Haoran Dao techniques while holding my breath.
When the battle reached its peak, Song Maoling condensed all souls with true qi, there were cranes, leopards, eagles, and even holy beasts with dragon roaring and tiger roaring, all of which were slashed by Zhao Zhengli with a sword, from the beginning of several sword qi to dozens or hundreds, and finally almost reached nearly a thousand sword qi when he cut the transformation of the dragon and tiger, and it was superimposed, like a divine soldier descending into the world, dazzling, slashing at all kinds of shape-shifting creatures, and after the collision of dazzling true qi, both dissipated into the night sky, and the aftermath of the true qi spread for several miles, startling the horses restless, and the horses' hooves stomped back and forth.
What Song Maoling performed was the "Dragon Elephant Ten Thousand Spirits" of Longhu Mountain, and Zhao Daochang still performed the "Qingcheng Fearless Dan Law to keep nothing and be empty, and turn ten thousand together!" ”
Now Daochang Zhao can finally reach the point of turning into a thousand.
Both sides are fighting hard in Taoism, this is not a battle of life and death, naturally it has not reached the point of forgetting death, but the two can also measure that they are not equal, as for what the final killer is, neither side knows.
Song Maoling and Zhao Zhengli gave in at the same time, each of them gave up their hands, Song Maoling picked up the sachet and the jade plate, and returned the thin sword to the Bi family sisters who watched the battle in the carriage.
Song Maoling summoned the dark horse in the distance to turn over, and once again returned to his arrogant and cold tone and said to Zhao Zhengli: "See you next time in the capital!" ”
Then, without waiting for a response, he turned his horse's head and galloped away; Disappear into the night.
Zhao Daochang cleaned up and returned to the carriage, the two sisters looked at him with a straight face, their silver teeth squeaked, he grinned and grabbed the reins disappreciatively, and asked, "Did you two understand what he said?" ”
Birou finally relented, and quickly forgot the earlier mistakes of this evil sinner: "He said goodbye to the capital next time?" ”
Zhao Daochang sighed and regretted: "Bendao is going to enter Beijing as an official, so it is estimated that I have to say goodbye to my two sisters!" ”
Birou hurriedly asked, "Why don't we go to the capital with you?" ”
Zhao Daochang made a deep thinking appearance: "It's okay, take the two sisters into the capital to find a good family to entrust, and the province will float around." ”
The two sisters were anxious when they heard this, and Biyu's words were sharp: "Dao Chang really thinks that my two sisters are people who move for fame and fortune?" Or do you think that my sisters are using the Taoist chief as a springboard to find a good home? The past two months have been in vain, and the Taoist insists that my sisters are a burden, please quote, we will never owe half a penny, and immediately return the two lives saved by the Taoist! ”
After speaking, there was even a resolute posture of drawing his sword, and Daochang Zhao hurriedly stopped: "It's okay!" It seems that the two sisters insist on following Bendao for the rest of their lives. Then the conversation changed sharply: "I heard that the dignitaries and dignitaries have three wives and four concubines, since this is the case, you might as well let Ben Dao and the two sisters cultivate into a Zhengguo Dao couple tonight, and sit firmly in the main palace seat first, so as not to be cut off in the future!" ”
This 360-degree rotation really made the Bi family sisters not react, and they picked up their pink fists in shame and anger to output to him for a while.
In fact, the first half of the sentence is Zhao Daochang's heart, and the second half of the sentence is a joke about cleaning up the mess in the first half of the sentence.
