Chapter Ninety-Six: Forcing the Palace
Northern Xinjiang is different from Huayang, Northern Xinjiang is not a centralized country, but like a large power in the rivers and lakes that are intricately intertwined with various sects. More than a dozen tribes are independent, each tribe is in the northern Xinjiang grassland stomping the ground trembling existence, the reason why they can survive in the barren land of northern Xinjiang, in addition to the strength, each tribe also has its own unique survival skills.
Ling Feng is also a war horse unique to Northern Xinjiang, they are a species of wild horses and wild wolves that mate, and they are named because of their extreme speed and pure white color.
Many tribes in northern Xinjiang domesticated them and used them to fight in all directions, and it was extremely difficult for Ling Feng to cultivate. But once they are born and grown, they will be higher than other horses, after more than ten years or even decades of killing the weak and keeping the strong, these war horses can go for several days without eating or drinking, or they can run more than 300 miles a day.
It is said that they are the mounts of the ghost generals from the underworld, and once these horses run, they are like a strong wind, and they can chase the goshawks that have flown out, not to mention Huayang, even in the northern Xinjiang, there is no kind of horse similar to it that can be compared.
They don't smuggle their mouths until they die. With such a strong mount, Beijiang can be regarded as having a place in the battle with Huayang for many years, but this creature is not easy to reproduce, after all, the communication across species is always not smooth sailing.
This time, the Vulture Technique went south, not only using the Disguise Technique to modify his face shape, but even Ling Feng's appearance had done a lot of camouflage, dozens of Ling Feng were already ready, just waiting for it to get dark.
Qingcheng Mountain is too huge, many residual veins also extend everywhere, the river is mountainous and difficult to walk, Shen Jin'an, who has already been tired and painful, has not yet completely walked around before he feels a little weak in his legs.
"I said Miss Lin, aren't you the eldest lady of the Qingcheng faction? Why don't you go out and pay attention to some cards, just wandering around a little bit? Shen Jinan asked sweatingly, and fanned himself from time to time, Qingchengshan also brought some troubles to the local people, such as the temperature here is higher all day long, and the climate is more humid.
Shen Jin'an teased his robe in one hand and the kettle in the other, and slowly followed the team, yesterday he had already written to inform Xiao Wuzi and asked him to wait there with peace of mind.
The new Qingcheng Sect disciples in the team felt unbelievable when they saw Shen Jin'an speaking so disrespectfully to their eldest lady, and they even wanted to stand up for Lin Pingping, but seeing that Lin Pingping herself didn't say too much, she had to die in a huff.
This road is also flat, after all, it is among the Qingcheng faction, Lin Pingping is considered a snake here, everyone ate some roasted game at a rest platform, and after drinking a few glasses, even the old man next to Lin Pingping had to admire, although Shen Jinan was a gentleman. But I don't know where I learned it, I also know how to play the piano, chess, poetry and painting, I know how to pass through the cage, and I can also use the pai gow color.
Just as everyone was still thinking about what to say, a sweaty man ran in.
Shen Jin'an recognized him, he was Lin Pingping's guard, and he looked extremely nervous.
"Miss, according to the exploration we have conducted, there should be no situation ahead." Lin Pingping handed over a roasted hare, in the war years, the people of Sichuan had rabbit meat as the staple food for a long time, and the rabbit here is fat and big, and it can be said that it is best to use it for barbecue.
Lin Pingping was not surprised: "Okay, call your remaining brothers to come over, and tell them that I will ask them to roast whole sheep after returning to the sect tonight." ”
Once she didn't face Shen Jin'an, Lin Pingping's eldest lady's temper hardened suddenly, after all, she couldn't lose face when she came to her own territory.
In less than half an hour, more than a dozen guards who came running came to the resting platform, but these guards obviously didn't look as clean as the official disciples of the Qingcheng faction, but their makeup was a little sloppy and mediocre, Shen Jin'an only then understood that those so-called guards explained that they were local bandits.
Because the Sichuan land is mountainous and watery, and it is a thousand miles of fertile land, there are relatively few wars experienced by many young people, so many young people have developed the problem of idleness, and many years of war have led to a large number of refugees moving south, and they can only occupy the mountains as kings without land, because they have different means, and are also known as the guards of all parties.
Although it is not a poor mountain and a bad water, the places where Shen Jinan and Lin Pingping walked along the way are relatively sinister places.
There are a lot of guards under Qingcheng Mountain, and it can be said that a village of 100 people will have a guard of more than 10 people.
These guards are all engaged in the business of collecting money and food from the owner's family and then protecting them, but there are also people who took refuge in Qingcheng Mountain after Jiangyang bandits were cornered.
When the head of the guard in this area heard that the eldest lady of the Qingcheng faction was suddenly coming to inspect him, he was shocked.
The big boss who was having fun on the bed lifted his pants and left, and the glamorous young woman who was still panting on the bed grabbed it, and said shyly that if she played for a while, she would usually be picked up and tossed on the bed again, but today I don't know why the big boss actually looked back at a slap. Then he strode out, as if a catastrophe was coming.
The head of the guard was a thief who did evil in the south of the Yangtze River, was rewarded by the government, and injured two military Cao, and had to die here, called Hei San, this person has practiced cartilage since he was a child, and he can bend his bones when he practices hidden weapons.
Hei San, who was trotting all the way, touched his thighs, which didn't have much meat, and felt a cool breeze swishing underneath, it turned out that he was not wearing pants.
Because Lin Pingping was afraid that the task of guarding the mountain would be missing, she did not notify the people below.
Since his own guard had already said that it was okay, he notified him in advance.
The black three sides got on the horse, don't look at the fact that there are only a dozen people on the other side, but they are all things he can't afford to provoke, and there have been a few small thieves who provoked the Qingcheng faction and almost couldn't find the corpse capital here.
"Why are you here, how are you disheveled?" Lin Pingping looked at the man in front of her with a blank face.
Hei San on the opposite side didn't dare to act rashly like a pins and needles, so he could only prevaricate: "Miss, I am leading my brothers to inspect the guests, I heard that you are coming, and I took the liberty to come so I am not in good clothes, you have a lot of don't go to your heart." It's all my fault that this kid in my family is a little slow to inform us, otherwise I would have prepared good wine and food here to entertain your distinguished guests, so let's go to my house and ask my brothers to prepare some special supplements for the eldest lady? ”
"Hmph, you so-called supplements don't know what kind of nonsense they are." Lin Pingping said without buying it at all.
Hei San looked at the expression without reproach for a long time, and finally his heart finally fell and said, "Miss, don't be polite, you have something to order directly." Hei San hurriedly shouted at the minions around him.
According to legend, the Lin Pan of the Qingcheng faction found an ancient book in the Qingcheng Mountain, which recorded the secret technique that can make the swordsmanship become a success, but there must be a murderous thing next to the heavy treasure, a golden eagle eagle has been wandering around, this eagle stretched out its arms and stretched more than two feet, an eagle roared and shook the surrounding mountains and forests, birds and beasts scattered, Lin Pan and it fought for several hours, and gradually fell into the downwind, had to escape.
Fortunately, Lin Pan, who had obtained the secret technique, began to open the door and establish a faction, and the Qingcheng faction also came into being.
Shen Jin'an and his entourage saw all kinds of birds and beasts between the mountains and forests on the road, and Shen Jin'an laughed at them from time to time.
Lin Pingping wore a brocade robe woven from Sichuan brocade, which is known as the "treasure of Sichuan" and is the first of the four major embroideries. Among them, there are hundreds of types of stitches. The rain in March in the splendid city constantly beats the bluestone slabs that have gone through many years, and the needles in April continue to weave and dye the Sichuan brocade in May. April and May every year is a good season for Sichuan embroidery.
Lin Pingping's Sichuan embroidery has gone through more than 70 processes from faint needles, needle laying, needle rolling to the final cover needle, I don't know how many people's hard work has made this Sichuan robe.
With a loud bang outside the mountain gate, everyone who was just about to return couldn't help but be shocked, and the team of dozens of people went to the place where the loud noise occurred, Lin Pingping raised her head proudly, he was the eldest lady of the Qingcheng faction, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was the head snake of the ground on this one-third of an acre, but at this time, there was a sudden change, could it be that something happened in the sect?
The words are divided into two ends, and the people coming and going in the main hall of the Qingcheng faction are very lively.
The six elders who couldn't be taller sat at both ends, Lin Tao's rank was placed in the center, and hundreds of Qingcheng Sect disciples stood in a row below.
Seeing that there was already a large group of people in front of him, Lin Tao took the lead and said, "Eldest son, what do you mean?" ”
Lin Tao, an old man who has lived for a half year, although he speaks at a slower pace, his body is the most robust.
"My Qingcheng faction is now in internal and external turmoil, and as the eldest son in the family, I naturally have to take on the responsibility of guarding the land and protecting the family. He also pleaded with the Great Elder to fulfill it. Lin Hui, who led more than 100 people to break into the main hall, said loudly.
"Then you mean to force the palace?" Another old man on the stage nodded in agreement.
Lin Heng said heavily: "I am the eldest son, and it is my duty to pass on the ancestry!" Now this is the time when I naturally stepped forward. If you people know each other, quickly pass on the position of head to me, I can guarantee that your current status will not change, if you can't tell the current situation, then don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
"Big brother, what are you talking nonsense with these people, now the road up and down the mountain has been blocked by us, if you say a word, in the future, the affairs of the Qingcheng faction will be up to you alone." A voice suddenly came, and it was a bald man who came into view, but the two sword eyebrows as black as thin snakes showed that this person was even more unangry and arrogant.
