The next day, early in the morning.

Yingmei Xiaoge, spacious and luxurious brocade, the floating fragrance in the sleep "um", let out a sweet and lazy gasp.

The thick curly eyelashes trembled, and when she opened her eyes, the first thing that appeared in her sight was Xu Qi'an's high nose and handsome side face.

He had woken up and was quietly looking at the roof.

"Good morning, Xu Lang. ”

Fuxiang reached out of her arms from the quilt and hooked Xu Qi'an's neck, while pressing down on his hand kneading his chest.

"What morning, in the morning, you have to say: You were so good last night!" Xu Qi'an yawned and asked, "What time is it?"

"I hate it, the slave can't say it. ”

Fuxiang also yawned, rubbed his cheek against Xu Qi'an's face, and said coquettishly: "The water leaks at the foot of the bed, Xu Lang can see it himself." ”

Xu Qi'an threw his upper body out of the bed, looked at the foot of the bed, and the next moment, he jumped up from the bed: "It's too late, you abrasive little goblin, I have to go to the yamen immediately, otherwise the monthly income in the second half of the year will be gone." ”

Fuxiang propped his head with his arm and said with a foolish smile: "Yesterday, Xu Lang was grinding people's houses, and he hit a rake, phew." ”

Xu Qi'an left Yingmei Xiaoge, went to the stable, and took away his little mare, as expected, Erlang's horse was gone, which means that he has left the Teaching Division.

He rode a little mare and returned to Xu's house, looking left and right along the way, but never saw anyone selling green oranges.

"Zhong Li seems to be still in Si Tianjian, I should go pick her up. Xu Qi'an muttered, turned around and ran in the direction of Si Tianjian.

...........

"Zazaza ........"

Xu Qi'an pulled down the gate valve, and the stone door leading to the underground of Si Tianjian opened, and he shouted at the top of his voice: "Zhong Li, I'm here to pick you up." ”

Voices echoed in the open underground.

After a few moments, the sound of footsteps came from the steps leading straight to the ground, the oil lamp burned, and the glow of the fire reflected the outline of a figure, which gradually became clear.

Zhong Li, who was scattered from his head, climbed the steps, and a crisp voice came from his hair, with a little excitement: "You are here." ”

"Let's go, come home with me. Xu Qi'an turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhong Li turned around and shouted into the dark underground: "Senior Brother Yang, think about it behind closed doors, don't make the teacher angry again." ”

With that, she pulled down the handle and closed the stone door.

Xu Qi'an walked out and asked curiously: "Did Senior Brother Yang do something wrong?" ”

Zhong Li looked at him and whispered, "Senior Brother Yang went to the noon gate yesterday, blocked the way of the civil and military officials, and read your poem.

"The princes and His Majesty were furious and sent people to condemn the teacher and severely punish Senior Brother Yang. The teacher hung Senior Brother Yang up and smoked him, and then imprisoned him underground for ten years. Your Majesty and Your Majesty have just given up. ”

......... Xu Qi'an was stunned, his face was dull, and he couldn't believe that someone would do this step in order to pretend to be forced.

Yang Qianhuan was hung up by the prison and smoked? I didn't watch at the time, what a pity!!

Regretting in his heart, he didn't forget his business, and looked around the lobby, because the Nine Rank Doctors ran out, he could only ask Zhong Li beside him, and said:

"Is there any powder to cover up the smell on your body? I drank some alcohol last night, you may not know, my aunt and sister especially don't like me to drink........."

"Oh. Zhong Li nodded and said obediently: "The way to cover up the smell of fat powder is very simple, you wait, I'll find you incense." ”

It's a bit embarrassing........ The corners of Xu Qi'an's mouth twitched.

Back at Xu's Mansion, he was at the stone table in the courtyard and saw Lina and Su Su playing against each other, and Xu Lingyin was walking not far away.

"Cauldron ......."

Xiao Douding pretended to be very happy to catch up and took the opportunity to take a lazy rest.

Lina was obviously an incompetent master, staring intently in anticipation, her pretty face full of seriousness and thought.

This is unusual........ I feel like I see two scumbags discussing calculus........ Xu Qi'an walked over curiously and looked at it.

It turns out that the two of them are playing backgammon!

Walked away........

Because Zhong Li had been reminded on the way, the fifth senior sister of Si Tianjian didn't feel strange when she saw a ghost sitting in the courtyard playing chess, but just looked at it a few times.

"It's a charm, it's rare. She whispered.

I know, the characteristic of the charm is that it is beautiful, and it likes to seduce passers-by in the deep mountains and old forests, and then drain their essence, well, this essence is a serious essence......... Xu Qi'an nodded, indicating that he knew it in his heart.

Seeing this, Zhong Li didn't say more.

Subsequently, Xu Qi'an found that Li Miaozhen was missing, and was immediately shocked, and ran to the courtyard to ask Su Su: "Where is your master?"

Su Su didn't raise his head, stared at the chessboard intently, and replied in a coquettish voice: "Go to Lingbaoguan." ”

............

Outside the gate of the imperial city, Li Miaozhen, who was wearing a Taoist robe, was stopped by the tiger guards.

She was not in a hurry or annoyed, turned around and walked back for a while, and then patted her back, and with a "bang", the flying sword was unsheathed.

Seeing this, Hu Benwei, who was not far away, thought that she was going to break into the imperial city, and was shocked and pulled out his blades one after another.

Li Miaozhen jumped on the spine of the sword, and the flying sword took her soaring, stagnating at a height of twenty zhang. At this height, you can already see the Lingbao Temple in the distance.

The tiger guards at the head of the city pulled out their bowstrings, turned their bed crossbows and artillery, and aimed them at Li Miaozhen.

Hu Benwei Qianhu did not give the order to attack, he squinted at Li Miaozhen, and a flash of inspiration appeared in his heart.

Taoist robes and women want to enter the imperial city........ Is it Li Miaozhen, the Holy Maiden of Heavenly Sect, one of the protagonists of the battle between heaven and man?

However, if Li Miaozhen insists on flying swords to break into the imperial city, then what awaits her will be a counterattack by the masters of the forbidden army and the watchmen.

Of course, Li Miaozhen knew that she was locked, but it was not a big problem, she did not have the idea of forcibly breaking into the imperial city.

Staring at the Lingbao Guan in the distance, his anger sank into the dantian, and his voice was clear: "Li Miaozhen, a disciple of the Heavenly Sect, came on the orders of the master to discuss the Tao with the disciples of the Human Sect.

"The time and address are determined by the Renzong. ”

The sound is extremely penetrating and not deafening, but it is heard far away, inside and outside the imperial city, and it can be heard clearly.

The dignitaries, clansmen, and yamen officials living in the imperial city all heard Li Miaozhen's "war letter" at this moment.

Outside the imperial city, the residents of the inner city next to the red city wall were also alarmed by the sound, the pedestrians stopped, and the stall owners stopped shouting, and turned their heads to look in the direction of the imperial city.

Lin'an House.

Lin'an, who was wearing a red cascading palace costume and was playing hydrangea with the palace maids, suddenly stopped, listened attentively, and asked:

"Did you hear anything?"

Several palace maids tilted their heads sideways and quietly looked in the direction of the imperial city.

"Hear it, it seems to be some Tianzong disciple Li Miaozhen........." The palace maid who was slapped on the ass by Xu Qi'an responded.

The voice fell, and a cold and pleasant voice came from the opposite direction: "Three days later, at three o'clock, on the bank of the Wei River in the suburbs of Beijing, Chu Yuanzhen, a registered disciple of the Renzong, went out to fight. ”

Framing opened her mouth slightly, and the anecdotes that Xu Qi'an told her appeared in her heart, one of which was the dispute between heaven and man!

"In three days, I'm going to see it, and I'm going to take the dog slave to see it. "Framed's heart is hot, and he can't wait for the guards to summon his dog minions immediately.

Huai Wangfu.

In the back garden full of flowers, a woman in a lotus dress stood among the flowers, looked at the direction of the city gate, and whispered: "Three days later, three quarters later, on the bank of the Wei River in the suburbs of Beijing, ........."

Her eyebrows were bent, and she said happily, "There is another good show to watch." ”

There was no wind, but the flowers in the courtyard swayed gently, as if responding to her.

............

Li Miaozhen came to the capital, and three days later, by the Wei River, he duel with Chu Yuanzhen, a disciple of Renzong.

This news spread far and wide, and in just half a day, it spread almost all over the capital.

The first to boil were those who had entered Beijing early after hearing the news, and they waited for a full month, and finally waited for the dispute between heaven and man.

Waiting for the duel between the most outstanding disciples of the Daomen Human Sect and the Heavenly Sect.

Although many people are facing the embarrassment of running out of entanglements, no one complains, and even feels that coming to the capital in advance is an extremely correct and fortunate decision.

Because before the battle between heaven and man, they saw a fighting method that was rare in a hundred years.

This can be fully proved from the remorseful attitude of the heroes who missed the fighting method because they came late.

Even if there is no follow-up dispute between heaven and man, for most people in the rivers and lakes, it is already a worthwhile trip.

In a certain restaurant, the ecstasy hand Rong Rong and the beautiful woman, as well as Liu Gongzi and Liu Gongzi's master, the four of them found a vacant seat by the window, and talked about the dispute between heaven and man while having lunch.

The two protagonists rightfully take center stage.

Rong Rong poured wine for the beautiful woman, but turned her head to look at the middle-aged swordsman, and said crisply: "I heard from my predecessors that this Chu Yuanzhen seems to be the champion of Yuanjing's 27th year?"

When the middle-aged swordsman heard this, his face was a little embarrassed, "Yes, I traveled in the capital back then, and it happened to be the period of the apricot list, and I watched him become a huiyuan, and then a champion........

Unexpectedly, he had resigned from his official position and became a registered disciple of the Human Sect. Even today, he fought on behalf of Renzong. ”

"Master, I heard that Li Miao is really a fairy with a national color and a natural fragrance, how many products do you think she will be a Daomen?"

When Liu Gongzi said this, his attention was all on the words "national color and heavenly fragrance".

Regarding the question of the apprentice, the middle-aged swordsman shook his head, "That day, the Holy Maiden of the Sect hardly walked around the rivers and lakes, her reputation was not obvious, and the teacher didn't know what rank she was.

"However, there is another rumor in the rivers and lakes that the Feiyan Woman who was born the year before last is the Holy Maiden of Tianzong. ”

"Feiyan Woman is the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Sect?" Rong Rong was taken aback.

The name of the Feiyan Woman, she has heard a little, this woman robs the rich and helps the poor, and acts chivalrous and righteous, either in doing good deeds, or on the way to do good deeds.

His deeds are deeply praised and praised by the rangers.

However, a year ago, she suddenly disappeared and disappeared nowhere.

The middle-aged swordsman smiled: "It's all rumors, I don't know if it's true or not." However, the Swift Lady has been extinct since a year ago, and she doesn't know where to go. ”

At this time, a blue-robed Jianghu man at the adjacent table interjected and mocked: "It's lonely and unheard, Feiyan Woman went to Yunzhou to suppress bandits, and she only disappeared for a year." ”

Go to Yunzhou to suppress bandits?

Without waiting for the middle-aged swordsman to ask, the people around him looked over one after another.

"How did Your Excellency know that Feiyan Woman went to Yunzhou to suppress bandits. ”

"Not only do I know that Feiyan Woman has gone to Yunzhou, but I also know that she is Li Miaozhen, the Holy Maiden of Tianzong. The blue-robed Jianghu guest took a sip of wine and talked eloquently:

"I have a brother, a person from Qingzhou, who suddenly returned to his hometown at the beginning of the year, saying that he was in Yunzhou this year, and he went around with Feiyan Woman to suppress bandits, and his cultivation rose sharply. It was also he who told me that the Feiyan Woman was the Holy Maiden of Tianzong. ”

The middle-aged swordsman's eyes flickered, and he was full of doubts about the blue-robed man's words, and asked, "Since you are suppressing bandits in Yunzhou, why did you suddenly return to your hometown?"

The blue-robed Jianghu guest sneered: "Naturally, the bandit suppression is over, at the end of last year, the imperial court sent two golden gongs and a group of silver gongs to Yunzhou in person to uproot the mountain bandits in Yunzhou."

"The Xu Yingong who beat the watchman yamen was among them at the time, and it is said that he almost died?"

Immediately, a person in the rivers and lakes who knew about it spoke up and said: "It's not almost, it's really dead." ”

", can you be resurrected if you die?"

"Hey, just look at you poor sour guys and you know you can't afford to go to the Church Division. That Xu Yinluo is a frequent visitor to the Teaching Workshop Division, and if you pick a courtyard and ask the girl inside, you can ask a lot about Xu Yinluo. The insider said:

It is said that at that time, the political envoy of Yunzhou led his troops to rebel, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses besieged the governor and his party. Just when everyone was desperate, it was Xu Yinluo who blocked tens of thousands of rebels with one person and one sword, just like he blocked hundreds of civil and military officials a few days ago.

"The sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dark, and finally he died of exhaustion. But it also dragged until the arrival of reinforcements and reversed the situation. ”

There was an uproar in the lobby, whether it was people from the rivers and lakes or ordinary people, they were all stunned.

"One person blocks tens of thousands of people, is there really such a master in the world?"

"I think it's possible, haven't you seen the fighting method? Xu Yingong is so talented that even the Buddhist Arhats are willing to bow down. ”

"But how did I hear that the prison was helping him? ”

"Shut up, it was Xu Yinluo who defeated Buddhism by himself, what is the matter with the prison, I don't allow you to slander the heroes of Dafeng. ”

............

Lingbao view, quiet courtyard.

Emperor Yuan Jing stood with his hands in his hands, standing on the edge of the pool, staring at the stunning Taoist aunt who was sitting in the sky above the pool, meditating with her eyes closed.

"Alas, National Teacher, after this battle, it will be as short as three months or as long as a year, and the Dao Leader of Tianzong will enter Beijing. At that time, the national teacher will be in danger. ”

Emperor Yuan Jing sighed: "Most of the supervisors will not meddle in this matter. ”

If Jian Zheng can take shelter, coupled with Luo Yuheng's own strength, it is more than enough to deal with a Heavenly Sect Dao Leader.

Of course, Emperor Yuan Jing knew that this was an extravagant hope, and between the masters of the first product, there was no special reason, and he would almost not do it. Moreover, Jian Zheng's attitude towards the Human Sect was cold, and the probability of expecting him to resist the Heavenly Sect Dao Leader was slim.

"If the national teacher can't step into the first product, even if Chu Yuanzhen wins, it doesn't mean much. Emperor Yuan Jing shook his head.

There is a rule between the two sects of heaven and man, before the battle of the head of the Dao, the disciples of the two sects will first compete, and the losing side will have to let the other party make three moves when the real battle between heaven and man comes.

But Luo Yuheng is only a second grade, and the difference between him and the head of the Heavenly Sect is too big, even if Chu Yuanzhen wins, she has the opportunity to take the lead in three moves, and in the end, she will still lose.

"Is there any way to postpone this battle between heaven and man?" asked Emperor Yuan Jing.

He didn't say stop because that wouldn't be practical. Even if he is the emperor, he can't influence the battle between a second-grade and a first-grade master.

Luo Yuheng opened his eyes, his aura flashed, and he said lightly: "You can't tell the winner from the loser." ”

You can't tell the winner........ Emperor Yuan Jing chewed on this sentence and said helplessly: "Unless Li Miaozhen agrees." ”

Luo Yuheng pondered for a moment and said, "There is an easier way.........

............

Hsu Mansion.

Xu Dalang, who was teasing Xiao Douding in the yard, suddenly heard a shrill cat meow, and looked sideways, an orange cat squatted on the wall.

"Lingyin, you go to play with your master first, eldest brother has something to do. Xu Qi'an touched his sister's brain.

"Okay, I'm going to eat Guiyuelou's dishes at night. Xu Lingyin held the eldest brother's finger.

"Okay, I'll go out and buy it for you later, get out of here. Xu Qi'an poked her finger in the head.

Xu Lingyin happily ran away, bouncing and jumping.

The orange cat jumped into the courtyard, walked elegantly, came to him, and said: "Li Miaozhen has made a war letter." ”

Xu Qi'an bowed: "I know." ”

The orange cat smiled humanly and said, "There's something I want you to help with." ”

Xu Qi'an didn't answer, and looked at him silently.

A person and a cat looked at each other for a long time, and Xu Qi'an said in a low voice: "Dao Chief, do you want to trap me again?"

The orange cat shook his head, "Lord Xu, when did the poor road pit you." ”

This........ Xu Qi'an sighed: "You came to me at this juncture, I have an ominous premonition." ”
