After Wang Zhong got the secret book of "Eighteen Palms of Dragon Descending", he didn't cultivate it for the first time, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't.

As the first palm of the world in the Tianlong world, Wang Zhong is naturally greedy, you must know that this world can be compared with it, I am afraid that it is also Shaolin's "I Ching Tendon", and the "Northern Shengong" of the Xiaoyao School.

But Wang Zhong also understands in his heart that all peerless martial arts are not achieved overnight, without many years of study, he does not want to practice to the realm of Dacheng, Qiao Feng's qualifications are so high, it took five years to practice the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending".

Now that Wang Zhong still has a task, it is naturally not the best time to practice martial arts.

In order to complete the task assigned by Wang Jiantong, Wang Zhong first found Qiao Feng.

As a disciple of Wang Jiantong, Qiao Feng has always lived in his house, and Wang Jiantong directly recruited him and informed him of the "Xixia Yipintang".

"Xixia Yipintang has always been against my Great Song Dynasty, and it is inextricably linked with the Western Xia military, this change, is it because you want to use troops with my Great Song Dynasty?" Qiao Feng was raised by the Han people since he was a child, and he was even more righteous and thin, caring about his family and country, and when he heard about Yipintang, he thought of many aspects.

"Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it has been surrounded by strong enemies, with Khitan in the north, Dali in the south, Western Xia in the northwest, and Tubo in the southwest, which one doesn't want to take a bite of meat in my Central Plains!" Qiao Feng analyzed:

"Since the alliance between the Great Song Dynasty and the Khitan Tanyuan, the two countries have become brothers, and there has been no war for a hundred years. ”

During the period of Song Zhenzong, the Song State and the Khitan "Liao State" in the north fought repeatedly, and finally concluded the Tanyuan Alliance, and the Song State paid an annual tribute of 100,000 taels of silver and 200,000 horses of silk to the Liao State in exchange for peace.

It seems that the Song Kingdom paid reparations and sued for peace, losing power and humiliating the country, but in fact, this was a very cost-effective deal, because at that time, the annual income of the Song Kingdom was 10,000 taels of silver, and less than 300,000 taels of silver per Chinese New Year's Eve was a dime a dime, which was very cost-effective, because the silver money consumed to start a war was more than 100 times this amount.

At that time, the battle between Song and Liao lasted for twenty-five years, and the Song State was about to break down, so it was really cost-effective to exchange less than 300,000 taels of silver for peace.

The Tanyuan Alliance returned a hundred years of peace for the Song Kingdom, and there was no major war between the two countries, at most there was only small-scale friction, which was not worth mentioning.

The Song State tasted the sweetness and directly changed its foreign policy, and in the future, it mostly used money in exchange for peace, and the same was true for the Western Xia of the small border country, and Dali paid them gold and silver every year in exchange for peace time.

The advantage of this is that there is no war in the country, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, which causes the economic take-off of the Song Kingdom, and the annual income has long exceeded 10,000 taels, which can be said to be the richest dynasty in ancient times.

The disadvantage is that everyone thinks that the Song State is weak and can be bullied, even most of their own people are the same, there are few main fighters, and there are many peacemakers, laying the groundwork for the future shame of Jingkang.

The beggar gang has always been the first line of defense against foreign enemies, and it is also the kind that is self-conscious and does not need state subsidies.

Wang Zhong doesn't quite understand this kind of feeling, the kind of great sentiment of sacrificing everything for the sake of the country's righteousness and not asking for anything in return, Wang Zhong does not have.

So he didn't want to provoke the "Xixia Yipintang" in his heart, he felt that it was unnecessary, the game between countries was something that the imperial court should take care of, what do you care about the gangs in the rivers and lakes, there is no benefit if you win, and you will lose your life if you lose.

However, Wang Jiantong and Qiao Feng were very indignant, especially Qiao Feng, who didn't need Wang Jiantong to speak, and directly and automatically asked Ying to go to Xixia to frustrate the prestige of Yipintang.

"Master, if you leave this matter to me, I will definitely ask those Tangut people not to step half a step on Song soil!" Qiao Feng half-knelt in front of Wang Jiantong and asked.

Wang Jiantong helped Qiao Feng up with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Feng'er understands righteousness, and he is worthy of being a good man for my beggars!"

"It's just that this time it's about the country's righteousness, you can't be sloppy, you're still young, this time I asked the deputy gang leader to go to Xixia with you, and you must ask him for advice along the way." ”

Qiao Feng nodded when he heard this, and then hugged his fist to Wang Zhong and said, "For this mission, Qiao Feng will definitely take the deputy gang leader as the leader. ”

Wang Zhong smiled, hugged his fists in return, and nodded: "Brother Qiao is polite, this time in Xixia, we will help each other, and we will definitely be able to succeed." Moreover, I also called Elder Bai Shijing to go with me, and with the strength of the three of us, I will definitely make that group of Xixia thieves come and go!"

said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and Bai Shijing happened to come to see Wang Jiantong at this time.

Bai Shijing is in his early forties, not smiling, and seems to be quite loyal, he is the best of the nine bag elders, in charge of the criminal law of the beggar gang, and often needs to communicate with Wang Jiantong, the gang leader, and it just so happened that Wang Jiantong informed the Xixia Yipintang about it.

To say that Bai Shijing is a person, in fact, it is quite complicated, this person has always been iron-faced and selfless, upright, and has a good reputation in the beggar gang, widowed more than ten years ago, and has not continued until now, and the beggar gang is all boasting about the old.

But Wang Zhong knew that Bai Shijing was as lustful as his life, and according to the inside, he later had an affair with Kang Min, and even killed Wang Zhong's predecessor Ma Dayuan, which can be described as a typical example of a misstep that has become a thousand years of hatred.

However, Bai Shijing has not done any other evil things except for this incident, and he is loyal to Qiao Feng, even if Kang Min is tempted, he is unmoved, refuses to frame Qiao Feng, and always stands on Qiao Feng's side in the battle of Juxian Village, and even rescues Qiao Feng's confidante Azhu.

Therefore, Wang Zhong has his own views on Bai Shijing, and he has always been a little wary of him, not because he will have an affair with Kang Min in the future, but because Bai Shijing is Qiao Feng's ironcore, and the two have a good relationship, and they almost became friends for eight worships.

This time, Wang Zhong deliberately took Bai Shijing to Western Xia, just to observe this person closely, if he could win over the best, if not, Wang Zhong didn't mind taking precautions.

Bai Shijing didn't notice anything wrong, and only regarded the trip to Western Xia as an ordinary task and accepted it gladly.

In fact, Wang Zhong and Qiao Feng, plus Bai Shijing, the three-person lineup is already good, if they can work together, the world can go, although Xixia Yipintang is dangerous, it is difficult for the three of them.

The three agreed to leave early the next morning and go back to arrange everything tonight.

Wang Zhong may leave this time for several months, and he also needs to settle Kang Min well, so as to prevent this demon woman from stealing people while he is away.

In the past three months, Wang Zhong did not touch Kang Min, but concentrated on restoring martial arts in unison, and Kang Min had some opinions, but she didn't dare to complain about Wang Zhong, but she scolded many people.

Although Wang Zhong is a member of the beggar gang, he also has some property under his name, he is a small landlord, there are three old servants at home, an old mother, before leaving, Wang Zhong instructed the four servants to be optimistic about Kang Min, if this woman dares to mess around, she will be killed directly on the spot.

Affected by Ma Dayuan's emotions, Wang Zhong never couldn't bear to kill this demon woman, but it didn't mean that he had no way to kill, he was just too lazy to do it.

If Kang Min is interested, it is naturally good to be her deputy helper's wife honestly, and if she has different intentions, Wang Zhong will not mind sending her to hell to seduce the king of Yama.

After arranging everything, Wang Zhong went on the road with peace of mind and went to Xixia, where he would meet for a while.
