Chapter 44: The End of the Journey

The creation of a martial art, even with theoretical guidance, is not so easy, Li Shucheng and Jiang Mingyue observed the survival state of many tigers, and then discussed and experimented, and the effect was not great for more than a year, but fortunately, it did not hurt the intestines.

Creation is like this, a little modification, experimentation, a little carelessness will hurt oneself.

However, there is also something to be happy about, Jiang Mingyue has opened the sixth meridian and is in the same realm as Li Shucheng. The next step is to accumulate internal strength, and then open up the second pulse of Ren Du in one fell swoop to achieve the top master. But it will be a long time, maybe it will be done in ten years, maybe it will not be successful in twenty years. The top master, if it is so easy to reach, it is not worth being sought after.

In Li Shucheng's opinion, Guo Jing is full of luck, and now he has not reached the top master. Judging from his martial arts when he went out of the mountain to defend Xiangyang, it didn't take long for him to break through to the top at that time. And in the world, there is only one Guo Jing. Among the younger generation of the rivers and lakes, Guo Jing rode the dust, Li Shucheng and Jiang Mingyue tried their best to catch up, and they were still much worse than him. The younger generation of other rivers and lakes are much worse in martial arts, and there are few who can catch up with Yin Zhiping.

Li Shucheng and Jiang Mingyue's martial arts are at the top of the younger generation, that is, the older generation of martial arts people, and their internal skills are not much deeper than the two. The gap between the two and them is more about the experience of the rivers and lakes.

If Jiang Mingyue had the strength at this time, even if the two of them couldn't leave Ouyang Feng, who had already gone crazy and his martial arts had declined, they would have a great chance of seriously injuring him. After Ouyang Feng went crazy, he forgot all the methods of poisoning, and his martial arts declined again, so now Li Shucheng is really not afraid of Ouyang Feng.

For more than a year, in order to study tigers, the two came from Guanzhong to Guanwai, and are now in Changbai Mountain. A few years ago, there was a celebrity near Changbai Mountain, who was Liang Ziweng, the old monster of the Ginseng Immortal. From the mouth of the ginseng picker, Li Shucheng knew that Liang Ziweng was also a ginseng picker back then, and later somehow learned martial arts, and then relied on his own martial arts skills, forced other ginseng pickers to hand over ginseng, and did a lot of evil things, but he knew martial arts, and the participants dared to be angry and dare not speak, and got the nickname of the old monster of ginseng. It wasn't until a few years ago that the old monster left Changbai Mountain, and the life of the participants was better. However, the people here did not know that Liang Ziweng was dead, and they were always worried that Liang Ziweng would come back again. But no matter how worried they are, they don't want to leave here, even if Liang Ziweng comes back and forces them to hand in ginseng as before, their life is better than farming.

The vast Changbai Mountain is undeveloped, there are many tigers, brown bears, and black bears in the depths, which are too dangerous, and the visitors are ordinary people who do not know martial arts, so they are almost all in the periphery activities.

Li Shucheng and Jiang Mingyue are of course not ordinary people, although they are not as powerful as tigers and brown bears, but the battle is not just strength, no matter how great the strength is, it is in vain if they can't beat anyone. Martial arts is a combination of strength and skill. It is precisely because of their martial arts that the two of them are not afraid of entering the depths at all, but they are somewhat restrained when they move, killing one or two tigers and bears to gain some fur, bones and gall, these are okay, and it is not interesting to have more.

Tiger skin, not the kind on TV that is cushioned on the chair of the boss of the bandit cottage hall, the real tiger skin, the cottage can't afford it, even if there is, it has already been sold and replaced with grain and meat These things have been eaten into the belly. There are so many rich families in the cottages, and the generals are happy, because the bandits not only have military exploits, but can also make money! As for the death of a few soldiers, it is not them who die. There is not much in the world, that is, there are many people, and you can recruit people to make up for how many you die, and you don't even need to recruit people, and you can eat empty salaries.

And tiger bone bear bile can be used as medicine. Even Tiger's little JJ is useful, and it will be the same for hundreds of years, although no one has tried it, but people know that there is a good thing called Tiger Whip Wine. People have always believed in eating what to make up, that is a tiger! Tiger's little JJ's medicinal wine, can the effect be poor!

"Alright, pack up, let's go home. "Let's wrap the bear skin and tiger skin around the tiger bones, roll it up and tie it up, and carry it up.

"You can bring these furs with you, and even if you don't use them, you can sell them for some money. But, the tiger's one, what are you doing with it, it's disgusting. Jiang Mingyue had been watching Li Shucheng clean up the two beasts, and naturally knew what Li Shucheng had left behind.

Li Shucheng tilted his head close to Jiang Mingyue's ear and laughed quietly: "That, I heard that this thing has an extraordinary effect on soaking in wine." Shall we try it in a few days?"

"What effect?" Jiang Mingyue wondered, "Is that medicine?"

"It's said to be medicine. Li Shucheng said, "There is simply nothing better for men, soaking wine and increasing the pleasure of the boudoir." ”

"You...... It's disgusting!" Jiang Mingyue said with a red face, "If you make medicinal wine with this disgusting thing, don't touch me." "I have been married for more than three years, and some things, although they are wonderful, I am used to them, and sometimes they are even in the mountains...... , but Jiang Mingyue is deeply influenced by tradition, and she still feels shy when she speaks.

Well, this thing actually feels disgusting by Li Shucheng himself, and he doesn't seem to need this thing anymore.

"Then I'd better throw it away. Li Shucheng said, took out the thing and threw it away. It's a shame that I haven't tried it, but I don't have to endure the nausea to taste it. If Jiang Mingyue doesn't stop it, Li Shucheng will really try, men, they all hope that there is no strongest, only stronger! Sometimes when the heart is more than enough and the strength is insufficient, he dreams of surpassing Chang Yu!

Out of Changbai Mountain, found a small town, first took the tiger skin bear skin to ask someone to make it, and also concocted tiger bones and bear bile, over the years, Li Shucheng has also learned a lot of medical skills.

Tiger skin bear skin is a rare thing, not to mention that these two furs are very complete, without a single hole, such fur is the best. However, the people who make the fur are also understanding people, and they dare not be greedy at all. Look at the swords in the hands of the two, and then look at the fur without holes, such a person is not something he can afford to provoke an old man, even if he wants to be greedy, he must have a life, right?

Waiting for the nitrate fur in the town, Li Shucheng was not idle, and exchanged the gold and most of the silver on his body for ginseng in the town, in addition to using it to make soup and drink, he also took a dozen or so dried ginseng with him when he left.

Ginseng is still beneficial for martial arts cultivation, but it is not as magical as the legendary increase in skill for many years, it just speeds up the cultivation speed. Otherwise, the snake raised by the old monster according to the prescription of the ginseng immortal, I don't know how many ginseng and deer antler velvet I have eaten in the past 20 years, and how many years of strength can be increased by drinking its blood! But Guo Jing is not invincible in the world, is he?

Entering the Guannei, the capital of Jin Guozhong is now Mongolian Yanjing. The life of the common people under Mongol rule...... Well, there was no improvement, but at this time, the Mongol army was strictly disciplined, and it was still safe to arbitrarily oppress and kill the people under its rule.

All the way south into the Jin Kingdom, chaos is rife, although it is similar to that under Mongol rule, they are all as poor, and it is even more unfortunate to lose their lives in comparison. There is still half of the country in the Jin country, not because the Jin country has cheered up, nor is it the benevolence of Mongolia, but there is also a country in the west, the Baigao Daxia Kingdom and the Western Dynasty, which is what the people of the Great Song Dynasty called the Western Xia. If Mongolia wants to destroy the Jin State, it must first destroy the weaker Western Xia, so the Jin State has not yet perished, and it is still surviving.

Li Shucheng didn't want to see much of the chaos in the Jin Kingdom, so he hurriedly crossed the border of the Jin Kingdom and returned to the Great Song Dynasty.

There is no need to rush like escaping from hell, the Great Song Dynasty has no external troubles now, and there are some bandits and bandits inside, occasionally a small rebellion that does not form a climate, and there is no chaos in the Jin Kingdom and the strict atmosphere of Mongolia, this is the place to live.

It is said that the Great Song Dynasty was also too unlucky, when Zhao Kuangyin founded the country, the sixteen states of Youyun had already been dedicated to the Liao Dynasty by Emperor Shi Jingjiao. The Liao Dynasty had already been together with the north, the national strength and military strength were strong, the Great Song Dynasty had no natural danger, and the pressure on the northern defense was too great. Fortunately, the alliance of Tanyuan was signed later, and the Liao Dynasty did not go south, and the Great Song Dynasty retained a hundred years of rivers and mountains until the Jin soldiers went south.

Although the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty jointly attacked Liao, this alliance itself was fragile, and it all relied on strength to speak. The Great Song army was defeated in the Liao State, and the Jin State saw that you were so weak! If you are weak, who will you bully? After destroying the Liao State, they went south and attacked Bianjing and Kaifeng, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.

Lao Jiu Zhao Gou was lucky not to be in Bianjing, and then ascended the throne in Hangzhou as the emperor, organized military and civilian resistance, and Yue Fei and other generals fought to the death on the front line to kill the enemy, so as to keep half of the country.

Now the imperial court and the Mongols are jointly attacking the Jin Kingdom, which is exactly the same as a hundred years ago. No one is stupid, and he also wants to destroy the Jin country and recover the country. It's just that Mongolia is the same as the Jin State, and the contract is still too hard, and the Jin State tore up the contract to attack the Great Song Dynasty two years after the destruction of the United States.

As for why the strategy of jointly attacking Liao with the Jin State before and then jointly attacking the Jin with the Mongols was wrong, it is only a matter of later generations judging by historical results.

At that time, the enemy of the Northern Song Dynasty was the Liao State, and the Southern Song Dynasty's enemy was the Jin State. A hundred years ago, the Liao State was the enemy, and the enemy a hundred years later was the Jin State, no matter whether there were other forces united with the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty had to face the enemy, and some people came to unite, of course, it was a good thing, they just didn't figure out how strong the forces united with them were.

As for Lianliao's attack on Jin and Lianjin's attack on Mongolia, the previous Jin Dynasty and Mongolia were not enemies of the Great Song Dynasty, and it was impossible for the Great Song Dynasty to unite the enemy to attack the forces that had nothing to do with the Great Song Dynasty.

In general, it is still a big Song Taicai, so that people can attack without scruples. The best opportunity was when Zhao Gou was in power, but unfortunately he played it himself, and since then the Great Song Dynasty has been like a castrated bull, and he can no longer be erected, although his descendants have tried their best, but all of them have been in vain, and there is no hope at all. And Lu You, who has worked hard all his life, has never waited for future generations to worship him and tell him the day when Wang Shiding the Central Plains.

"Dad!Mother!We're back!" As soon as he arrived at the door, Li Shucheng shouted loudly.

"You unfilial son still know how to go home!" Li Yu's angry voice came from the house, followed by hurried footsteps.
