A snow-bright silver light burst out from the old Taoist sleeve, and the sharp long sword appeared in Yang Peng's throat in a flash. Yang Peng jumped off the horse, rolled around on the ground, and avoided the sharp long sword. "Huh~" The horizontal knife came out of its sheath and met the long sword in the hand of the old Taoist. The two sides went back and forth, fighting three times. The old Taoist priest stood with his sword in his hand, like a dragonfly, jumping among the withered grass.

Yang Peng's horizontal knife was blocked in front of his chest, and the beads of sweat on his forehead rolled down and fell on the horizontal knife, making a ticking sound. "Old Ghost Chen, do you want to kill me?" In three short moves, Yang Peng has already figured out the power of the old Taoist. The old Taoist's swordsmanship is very elegant, one move and one style are like dragonflies dotting water, fast and accurate. Yang Peng also tried his best to avoid the three swords of the old Taoist.

Between the three moves, it took two breaths, but Yang Peng felt more tired than rushing to kill in the enemy formation outside Yanjing Pass. The old Taoist priest held a long sword, squinted his eyes, stared at Yang Peng, and said, "Someone told the old Taoist that you have the appearance of a ghost and a god. I didn't believe it, so I went to Youzhou Prefecture to take a look, but I didn't expect it to be true. ”

Yang Peng vigilantly guarded against the old Taoist priest to continue to make moves, and he said in a low voice: "Zhao Heng told you? ”

"Not bad." Yang Peng said in a deep voice: "Even if I have the appearance of a ghost and a god, it doesn't hinder your Daomen's affairs, why do you want to kill me?" The old Taoist priest stroked his beard and said softly: "Because the old Taoist found that you are two sides." Your face not only has the appearance of ghosts and gods, but also the appearance of the living dead. ”

"So what?" "Those who have the appearance of the living dead in all generations are the ones who stir up the world. Every time such a person appears, it is the time when the world is in turmoil. If it is decided today, you will not be allowed to make waves again. Yang Peng's face was gloomy, and he said: "What kind of appearance of the living dead, who can be sure, it's not you old ghost who made it up to bluff people." ”

The old Taoist snorted coldly and said, "Ying Zheng, Wang Mang, Zhang Jiao, Yang Guang, and Huang Chao, they are all one side and two phases, and they all have the appearance of the living dead. What did they do, I don't have to tell you, right? ”

Yang Peng's face was cloudy. Could it be that the so-called appearance of the living dead refers to the appearance of the traverser? Of the five names in the mouth of the old Taoist priest, four of them were speculated by later generations to be reborn. However, even so, Yang Peng could not sit still.

Could it be that just because of a few words from others, Yang Peng is going to commit suicide and apologize? "Old Ghost Chen, don't scare me. Don't put a hat on my head. I see that you just took the benefits of the Zhao Song royal family and wanted to take the opportunity to help Zhao Heng eradicate me. ”

The old Taoist priest's face turned black and scolded: "You fart, Hugh has to slander the old Taoist." Lao Dao killed you, just for the people of the world to eliminate harm, and never mixed with anything else.

When I was in Youzhou, Lao Dao saw that you still had filial piety, so he didn't kill you. But after leaving Youzhou, Lao Dao has followed you to this day and found that you have no compassion at all, so he decided to kill you.

Everything has nothing to do with the Zhao and Song royal families. Yang Peng's face was also very dark, he glared at the old Taoist priest, and said, "Old Ghost Chen, I will kill a few robbers who robbed the Dao, they are all damned people." If I don't kill them, a lot of people will die because of their existence.

Am I also wrong to do the right thing for heaven? Do you think I deserve to die, and those robbers don't deserve to die. ”

The old Taoist priest sneered: "Whether they are thieves die or not has nothing to do with the overall situation. Lao Dao didn't care who killed them. What the old Tao cares about is whether you have a compassionate heart. You're different from them, they're just mountain bandits who dominate a road. You are a thief of cholera. They made a rebellion, and only a few died. But if you do a calamity to the world, it will not be a few people who will die, but millions of ordinary people. ”

"Phew!" Yang Peng spat and scolded: "Old Ghost Chen, don't talk nonsense here." You're talking about some ethereal stuff. The words spoken are also high-sounding. I, Yang Peng, have been rampant so far, and I have never killed a person by mistake, nor have I let go of any scourge.

Since my history, not only has I not harmed a single Han people. On the contrary, it saved the lives of millions of Han people. Even if Lao Tzu is not immeasurably meritorious, there are still countless merits of the living. Lao Tzu has done so many good things for the people and helped so many people survive. What have you done for the people? What have you done for the people?

What qualifications do you have, saying that if you let Lao Tzu die, Lao Tzu will die? Do you want to do the right thing for heaven, and just by virtue of your face, you will put me to death? If you Chen Lao Ghost is really doing the right thing for heaven, you really think about the people of the world. Then the person who should be killed the most is Zhao Heng sitting on the dragon chair in Bianjing City. How many achievements he has made as an emperor, probably you also know that the appointment of Pang Taishi will cause chaos in the world, if it weren't for me, he would have moved the capital a long time ago, where was your Daomen at that time.

If you want to say that the country and the people are harmed, he Zhao Heng is more qualified than me. "Chen Laodao has never dared to speak like this in front of him since he lived alone in Huashan, let alone scolded him so blatantly. In the eyes of all living beings in the world, he is an old ancestor and respected everywhere. Even if Zhao Guangyi invited him to Bianjing City three times, he also used eight sedan chairs to carry himself into Bianjing. How long has it been since no one dared to scold him?

The old Taoist priest didn't remember it. The old Taoist priest's face was pale, he stared at Yang Peng, and roared: "Your Majesty's northern expedition to the Liao Kingdom is to rescue the people who are suffering in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. ”

"Bah." Then the current Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures have been taken for me, then I am also rescuing the suffering people of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, Yang Peng completely gave up his face, and scolded: "Also rescue the suffering people of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures? Old Ghost Chen, are you telling me a joke? He was concerned about the territory of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and the barrier of the Great Wall. What did he do for the people of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun?

Nothing has been done. It's just that when the people of the sixteen states of Yanyun were suffering, he pulled a group of civil servants, raised their wine glasses, and sang a few sad songs together.

Lao Tzu is different from him. Lao Tzu not only took the land of Yanyun's sixteen states from the Khitan, but also rescued hundreds of thousands of people in Youzhou from suffering. There is nothing behind Lao Tzu, but Lao Tzu has a warm blood. Lao Tzu relied on this enthusiasm and these hands to build a happy home for the people bit by bit.

Tens of thousands of people have been rescued from suffering, and there may be more to come. Behind Zhao Heng, there is a huge empire, he has invincible fierce generals, and he has wise ministers. But what are they doing? They don't want to do anything but intrigue.

Lao Tzu is 10,000 times better than them, and 10,000 times nobler than them. If Lao Tzu is a sinner who has brought trouble to the world, then they are sinners of the nation and history. Yang Peng took a step forward, approached the old Taoist, and roared: "Tell me, which of you is qualified to take Lao Tzu's life?" ”

The old Taoist priest's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word. Yang Peng snorted coldly and prepared to leave. The old Taoist's sword was horizontal in front of Yang Peng.

"You can't go." Yang Peng held a horizontal knife, stared at the old Taoist, and sneered: "Finally want to tear your face?" Don't crush me with those high-sounding words anymore? Yang Peng saw that the old Taoist priest did not speak, and said: "You old guys, you always like to bully ordinary people with some words of gods and ghosts. Always sell others, and others are still counting the money for you.

Old Ghost Chen, when you see me and say so many high-sounding words, you are just making an excuse to kill me. Zhao Kuangyin gave Huashan to you at the beginning, which shows that the relationship between your old ghost Huashan and the Zhao Song royal family is not ordinary. Hey, hey, hey...... The person who really invited you over is probably not someone else, but Zhao Heng, right.

Zhao Heng saw that the Pang Taishi he sent couldn't suppress me. So you made a great promise to you, that you should come down the mountain and get rid of me as soon as possible.

Did I guess right? Can you tell me, what promises Zhao Heng made to you? The old Taoist priest's face was pale, the cold light flashed in his eyes, and the long sword subconsciously pressed towards Yang Peng's throat. Yang Peng turned his sword tactfully and swung away the long sword in the old Taoist's hand. The old Taoist priest carried a long sword and continued to approach Yang Qi.

"Whoosh~" The long sword slashed, cutting a few gaps in Yang Peng's body. "Annoyed and angry? As long as you are doing this qi cultivation, you can't get home. Although Yang Peng suffered a loss, he was unforgiving, and frequently opened his mouth to hurt the old Taoist. The old Taoist priest glared at Yang Peng angrily, and the long sword in his hand sped up a little.

Yang Peng was tired of fighting back, but he could never find a flaw. The old Taoist priest's swordsmanship is at its peak, both rigid and soft, and like an antelope hanging on its horns, it is unpredictable. Yang Peng had a feeling of being hanged. He has the strength to reach the sky, but he can't use it.

"Enough~" The old Taoist priest forced Yang Peng to retreat frequently, and was about to kill Yang Peng under the sword, but was stopped by a lazy voice. When the old Taoist priest heard this, he immediately put away his long sword and stood aside. I saw that from the pile of dry grass under the tree where the old Taoist priest was sleeping, a lazy, sloppy figure appeared.

He is also a Taoist priest. However, this Taoist priest feels sloppy and dirty, more like a beggar. There was also a wine gourd hanging from his waist. He walks upside down, and seems to be able to fall asleep at any time. The sloppy Taoist priest waved his hand at the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest glared at Yang Peng unwillingly, and then galloped up, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the boundless wilderness. The sloppy Taoist priest walked up to Yang Peng with a bump, and said in a daze: "You have an old ghost Chen, and an old ghost Chen." Is the poor way so annoying to you? ”

Yang Peng frowned and said in a low voice: "Are you Chen Jun?" The sloppy Taoist priest took off the wine gourd on his waist, took a sip, trembled all over, and exclaimed with the wine gourd: "The spirits from your Tianjing New City Wine Workshop are good...... It's just a bit expensive......"

Yang Peng glanced at the sloppy Taoist priest up and down, and his brows furrowed even deeper. The sloppy Taoist priest pursed his mouth, "Why, don't you think the poor Dao is like Chen Lu?" Yang Peng replied, "You are Chen Jun, who was that just now?" ”

"Huashan Sword Squire." Huashan Sword Servant?

This is the first time Yang Peng has heard of this name. The sloppy Taoist priest seemed to know the doubts in Yang Peng's heart, and said with a smile: "An old guy like me has lived long enough, and in the eyes of many people, it is a treasure." Daomen is thousands of years old, and Poor Dao is also a living immortal, and there are one or two guards by his side, which is also as it should be.

It's you, who seems to know that Poor Dao is looking for you, but you didn't bring anyone with you, so you went out. When I saw the Taoist, I insisted that it was an old Taoist. Yang Peng squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: "In order to find out your identity, I went to the Big Buddha Temple in person." made a heavy promise, and only then did I hear some news from the mouths of those monks. ”

"Phew!" Chen Tuan Lao Dao took a sip without any image and scolded: "A group of thieves who are full of food and have nothing to do are always staring at Poor Dao's every move. One day, the poor Dao will shitch in their Mahavira Hall and stink them to death. ”

Yang Peng was stunned, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching. It's hard to imagine that a fairy-level figure who has been worshiped for thousands of years in later generations is actually such a ...... Yang Peng really couldn't find a word to describe this sloppy Taoist priest who was called an immortal. It seems that the old gods or living arhats who have attained enlightenment are all such free and easy virtues.

For example, more than a hundred years later, a guy named Li Xiuyuan appeared. Everything in the world seems to be not enough to restrain these masters. Chen Tuan Lao Dao stared at Yang Peng, and said suspiciously: "Your kid's eyes are rolling around, and you seem to be thinking bad things about Poor Dao in your heart?" Do you think that living immortals shouldn't look like this in your heart? ”

Yang Peng shook his head decisively, "No." Chen Tuan said with disgust: "Duplicity." Boy, what are living immortals like, how many have you seen? I'm afraid I've seen a poor one. But I haven't seen any of them. Now that the poor road has the name of a living immortal on his head, how can the poor road live, what is the living immortal. Poor Dao, there is no need to care about the thoughts of others. ”

Yang Peng felt that what Chen Tuan said was true, a living person lived to Chen Tuan, even if he farted, there were many people who followed him and sucked wildly, and they would praise vigorously. Look at! I took a sip of fairy fart, and all of a sudden I felt ten years younger. Not to mention a big man like Chen Tuan Lao Dao, even if it is Yang Peng, if he farts now, there will be people who follow him and hold his stinky feet, saying that it is fragrant.

Chen Quan's words are true, but it does not mean that Yang Peng is willing to open his heart to him. For this kind of master who has not yet figured out the other party's intentions, Yang Peng is always vigilant. The fundamental reason why Yang Peng chose to go out single-handedly is to lead out of this master.

This kind of master, Yang Peng thinks, it is better for him to deal with it. If such a master is left in Yanjing Mansion, his family may not be the opponent of others.

"Why did you Daomen kill me?" Yang Peng asked in a deep voice the doubts in his heart. Chen Tuan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Didn't you just say it." Our Daomen has taken the benefits of Zhao Heng, so we have to help him deal with you. ”

"Huh?!" Chen Jian Lao Dao saw that Yang Peng was deflated, and he smiled very proudly as if he had stolen a chicken. Yang Peng's face turned black. Chen Jian said with a smile: "Zhao Heng did promise us benefits, but Poor Dao felt that it was hot, so he didn't take it." ”

Yang Peng looked in the direction where the old Taoist priest left just now, and said blankly: "What about him?" Chen Lao Dao twisted his beard and said, "You coaxed other people's precious nephews to sell your life, and you didn't let people play you out of anger." That little guy is a new generation of swordsmen who have worked so hard to cultivate, and you have abducted him. Do you think people don't get angry? ”

Fan Long arrived here under the leadership of the old Taoist priest who had attacked Yang Peng before. looked at Fan Long with an embarrassed face. Apparently due to the continuous rush without eating, drinking, or sleeping. In order to shorten the distance, when the old Taoist priest went to find Fan Long, he did not bypass Yanmen Pass.

Instead, he went directly along the mountain and took a shortcut to the outside of Yanmen Pass. Brought Fan Long from outside the Yanmen Pass.

"Ancestor." Fan Long bowed down in the place where Chen Tuan was sleeping soundly. Chen Jundao, who was sleeping soundly, exhaled a long breath and slowly sat up. Then he took a sip of wine before he asked Fan Long.

"Fan Long, how much do you know about Yang Peng?" Fan Long was slightly stunned when he heard Chen Lu's words, and said in amazement: "There is something about the apprentice's grandson's understanding of Yang Peng, didn't the apprentice tell the ancestor you before?" Chen Kuan's face darkened, and he roared: "I want to know, in addition to owning the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, Tianjing New Town, and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under the command of the two governments, what other strength does Yang Peng have?" ”

Fan Long frowned and said, "Old Ancestor, what are you asking these for?" ”

"Smack!" The old Taoist priest patted Fan Long on the head, glared at him and said, "Whatever the old ancestor asks you, you can answer, there is so much nonsense from there." Fan Long rolled his eyes helplessly. In front of this old Taoist priest, who was nominally his master but was actually his uncle, he had no temper at all.

Although Fan Long didn't know the purpose of Chen Luan's old ancestor asking him, he still defended Yang Peng. "The apprentice has not had much contact with Yang Peng, but he knows that this person's methods are endless. And he is extremely good at collecting money, so the power under his command will always grow and grow in the shortest possible time.

It can even create some amazing miracles. And he was a really good person, to his family, to his friends, to his subordinates, and even to the people under his rule. Although the disciple and grandson have not been friends with him for a long time, they have already made friends with each other.

The disciples were reluctant to be his enemies. When Chen Tuan heard this, his face darkened, "Did I ask you this?" "Smack!" The old Taoist priest slapped Fan Long again and glared at him. This general, who crisscrossed the territory and robbed the two capitals of the Liao State, was beaten like a grandson, and he was bitter in his heart.

Fan Long felt that when he lived to the level of an ancestor, he would have to reprimand others like this. Passing on your own suffering to others. That's the happiest thing. This is what Yang Peng told him. Under the coercion of the two elders.

Fan Long said in 1510: "According to the knowledge of the disciples, Yang Peng has another island in the south, Ryukyu. Where are nearly a million ordinary people, in addition to having their own power, they have also formed an alliance with Mingjiao......"

Chen Qi Qi smoked angrily and shouted, "Say something I don't know." Yan Tianzi nodded helplessly and said, "In addition, Yang Peng also has an alliance with the wild beggar tribe of the party. Also, Yang Peng has a spy agency named Jinyiwei under his command. In the hands of his mother-in-law, Ye Yu Hanyu, he also controls a spy agency called the secret guard.

Also, once the apprentice grandson and Yang Peng were drinking, he was drunk, and what did the Tianjing New City Money Store also be his industry......" Fan Long glanced at the old ancestor and his uncle, and said in a low voice: "As far as the apprentice Sun knows, the silver deposits of the two branches of the Tianjing New City Money Store in Youzhou Mansion and Tianjing New Town should have reached 10,000 taels......

Fan Long's words are not exaggerated. Yang Peng alone, the Tianjing New Town Money Store in Youzhou Mansion has saved nearly 30 million taels of wealth. Inspired by Yang Peng, as well as the insurance system in the money store in Tianjing New Town, many people in Youzhou Mansion also followed suit and deposited money in the money store in Tianjing New Town. And most of the dividends of the cavalry of the rangers were also stored in the money store of Tianjing New Town.

Now, the property seized by the rangers is directly asked by the people of the money bank in Tianjing New City to go to Fuxing Guanli to count it, and directly pull it away after issuing bills. There is an army that keeps robbing money inside and sending it to the Tianjing New City Money Store, and it is difficult for the Tianjing New City Money Store not to break out. Even the current military salary is issued, which is also a bill issued by the Tianjing New City Money Bank. Even, now in the market of Fengcheng, there has been a matter of using the bills issued by the Tianjing New City Money Bank as money.

The bill of Tianjing New City Money Bank has been transformed from a bill to a Tianjing New Town money bank. Besides. Merchants from all over the world frequently entered Fengcheng and Datong Mansion to do business, and a large amount of money was deposited into the Tianjing New City Money Store every day. The most terrifying thing is the commercial tax in the two provinces, although there are not many tax items, but they are all transnational trade.

The large amount of tax revenue coming in every day is terrifying. And these taxes were deposited into the Tianjing New City Money Bank. So much money went into the pockets of the money stores in the south, but in the end, it was only a piece of paper that came into the hands of the people and merchants. It can be seen that Tianjing New City has accumulated a huge amount of money.

It is said that in order to support the development of the Tianjing New Town Money Bank, Yang Peng has added an account department in the Tianjing New Town Academy. "Hiss~" Old Daoist Chen and Old Daoist, even if they were outsiders who had been cultivating their qi for many years, were also frightened by this terrifying number of words.

"Isn't Yang Peng rich enough to rival the country?" Chen Kuan's old way is quite stable. The old Taoist priest couldn't calm down anymore. There are two kinds of people who are the most difficult to deal with in this world. One is powerful, the other is rich. There are people who have the right to represent, the vast sea of people and the law, which will help them destroy all enemies. Those who have money represent God, and wealth can be used by God, almost everything, and no one can use it.

And Yang Peng not only has power, but also money. Then it is almost invincible. Fan Long looked at the two elders who were in shock, and said cautiously: "Disciple Sun heard that Tianjing New City Qian Xing is a domestic ...... of Tianjing New Town."

One sentence says a lot. Yang Peng said that the Tianjing New Town Money Store is his, and the Tianjing New Town Money Bank is a domestic product of Tianjing New Town. Proof in disguise, Tianjing New City is Yang Peng's.

It's even more terrifying. A young man who is only twenty years old now controls a country and two provinces, and he is also rich and rivals the country. That is, it is not the Daomen that can deal with it. No matter how good the Daomen is, it can't kill a country. Otherwise, Daomen would have been granted divine power by the monarch a long time ago, and he would have been the emperor on the emperor's head. You don't have to work so hard with Buddhism like you do now.

"How is this ...... may ...... "Chen Tuan Lao Dao is only 100 years old, and he has seen countless characters, and he has long been surprised." But after hearing Yang Peng's details, he couldn't bear to be moved. The old Taoist priest was already speechless in shock. "No wonder...... No wonder that kid dared to laugh at me......"

Chen Kuan muttered, stared at Fan Long, and said in a trembling voice: "Why didn't you say such important news earlier?" Fan Long said helplessly: "You don't have anyone to ask......" Chen Tuan Lao Dao was almost angry and injured internally. However, he soon realized that Fan Long was not at fault in this matter.

The fault is in the door. As Yang Peng said, Daomen is indeed a little complacent. only stared at the Central Plains, a one-acre and three-point land, and even did not hesitate to fight with Buddhism. However, from the perspective of Taoist transmission, it is indeed somewhat lower than Buddhism. It is not for nothing that Buddhism spreads all over the world.

Chen Tuan suddenly discovered that Yang Peng's words had affected his Dao heart, which had not been touched for many years. "You go back first." Chen Jian waved his hand and let Fan Long leave first. He whispered to the old Taoist priest and said, "Summoning the first vein of Chunyang, the first vein of Maoshan and the first vein of Longhu Mountain, come to see the poor Dao, and the poor Dao has important matters to discuss with them." ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
