One day in the cold winter of 1288 A.D., the north wind was howling, the snow was fluttering, and the earth was covered with silver, which was dazzling under the glow of the morning light.

In a small farmhouse more than 20 miles away from Huanglongfu (now Nong'an, Jilin), a young man about 21 or 2 years old was waving his fists and legs, and from time to time he let out a "hi" sound. Under the eaves, an old man in his sixties sat on a three-legged bamboo chair with his eyes closed. The old man's expression was solemn, his face was flushed, and his temples were high and bulging, and at first glance, he knew that he was a very hot master.

The old man's eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to be indifferent to the young man who was dancing and punching his legs, but whenever the young man made a mistake between punches and kicks, he would shout and reprimand.

The young man danced to the heart's content, and the snow in the courtyard was swept in all directions. In the snow flying, the young man shouted, a palm shot out, a strong wind passed through, only to hear a crisp sound, a birch tree with the thickness of a bowl at the fence of the courtyard folded waist-high.

At this moment, I only heard three high-fives of "pop, pop, pop" outside the courtyard, and one voice said: "Hehe's 'Infinite Divine Palm' really lives up to its name, if you add 'Infinite Sword', it will be enough to dominate the world!haha...... But ......"

The young man was taken aback, and hurriedly closed his palms and looked around, fully on guard. The old man's face did not change, he still sat in the chair, only opened his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "According to Your Excellency, but what?"

The voice was hehehe, and he said in a humming voice: "However, if you want to oppose the Yuan Dynasty and restore the country?

The old man snorted and said, "What Your Excellency said is not true. Thinking that I am a man in the mountains and villages, and the world is a good citizen, how can I oppose the words of the Yuan Dynasty and restore the country? You and I have a plain life, no grudges and no hatred, how can you slander ourselves and add crimes to us?"

The voice said, "If you want people to know, you don't know unless you don't do it." What a 'mountain village husband, the world is a good citizen'. Just the descendants of the Dajin Kingdom Wanyan clan stay at home and study martial arts diligently, which is enough to prove that you have good intentions, so why do you need to say it clearly in the next one. “

The old man's heart shook slightly, and said, "Who is Your Excellency, why don't you deign to invite you into the hut?" When he spoke, although his face did not change, he expected that the other party would have known that he was hiding and staring, and his tone was much softer than before.

The man said, "Don't dare! Before the voice stopped, the firewood was opened, and a person strode in.

When the old man stared, he saw that the man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a handful of rat whiskers about an inch long under his chin, a sloppy and sloppy clothes, covered with patches, and a shiny green bamboo stick in his hand. turned out to be an old man in his fifties begging for food and clothing.

As soon as the old man Huacai entered the hospital, a foul smell came to his nose with the cold wind. The young man couldn't help frowning and avoided the distance. The old man stood up in shock, clasped his hands into fists, and said, "Who am I? It turned out that the leader of the Jiangnan Beggars Gang Ma Lao had arrived." Please, please take shelter from the wind. “

This is called the "horse gang leader", and the old name is Ma Ronghao, the leader of the largest beggar gang in Jiangnan. Ma Ronghao was a rare outstanding talent in the beggar gang when he was young, not only outstanding in martial arts, but also extremely scheming, and also a good understanding of the art of war, good at leading the troops to set up the formation, as early as the Song and Jin armies, he has led the people to fight against the Jin soldiers and repeatedly performed miraculous feats. The top and bottom of the gang praised each other and admired it vigorously, and was later pushed to be the eighteenth generation leader of the beggar gang. He has a long reputation in the martial arts, and has the style of a leader.

At that moment, Ma Ronghao snorted, which was a little polite, and followed the old man into the house and sat down as guests. The old man shouted outside the door, "Fu'er, come and warm the pot of tea." “

The young man replied softly, "Yes!" He immediately went into the house to warm up the tea in the stove, and then divided two cups into the future, and then stood quietly behind the old man, silent. It's just that I can't help but look at Ma Ronghao, and I can't figure it out, I don't know why this sloppy and obscene old man makes his uncle so convincing?

Ma Ronghao drank two large cups of tea in succession. The old man said with a complete face: "Ma Gang Master, when you and I fought in Caizhou (now Runan, Henan), each had its own master, and I admired Jun Zhixiong's talent very much, and I hated to meet each other often.

Ma Ronghao smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern! Ma came today, there are really important matters, and he also asked the prince not to remember the past suspicions and discuss the plan. “

Wan Yan snorted slightly, and said lightly: "It's not a secret, Song and Jin are the feud of the country, it can be said that the Tao is different and not conspiring with each other, if you talk about character, Wan Yan respects you for three points, if you work together, please also ask the Ma Gang Master to avoid opening his mouth." Ma Ronghao said: "Where did the prince come from, now you and I are the slaves of the dead country and the eagle of the nest, and all kinds of grievances should be based on state affairs." Ma may wish to make it clear that I came this time to contact the people with lofty ideals in the world and conspire against the Yuan. “

Wan Yan's face changed slightly, and he said angrily: "The master of the horse gang is serious. I want to finish my family, and I am so down-and-out, how dare I have different thoughts? Today, all of them have returned to the Yuan, the world is peaceful, and the society is safe. The old man has no ambitions, and he has been at ease for the people. Such remarks that violate discipline and are rebellious should be mentioned again by the leader of the Ma Gang. Otherwise, the old man will have no choice but to give it away!"

Ma Ronghao laughed and said: "A good sentence 'under the plum in front of the melon, mulberry and hemp pastoral'." In this way, Ma lost his words. Ha ha...... Ha...... It's a pity! It's a pity, it's a pity, ......" At this point, he suddenly shouted: "What person?" and threw his teacup up with his right hand, shooting it to the roof. Then he smashed through the window bar and crashed out of the window. This time he threw the cup and threw himself in one go, and he didn't necessarily know how he turned around and forced, and his whole body flew out of the chair flatly, just right to hit the window, which is really a rare first-class skill in martial arts.

Wan Yanfu couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Wan Yan Yan blurted out and praised: "It's really good!" and Wan Yan Fu both rushed out of the house.

I saw that Ma Ronghao in the courtyard was fighting very tightly with an old man in a white shirt. The old man in the white shirt was fairy-like, with a long beard as white as silver, his eyes were blazing, and he was not angry and arrogant. A few meters behind him, a girl in white, Tingting Yu, with a breeze passing by, fluttering clothes, like a fairy. He is about 17 or 8 years old.

Wanyan was surprised in his heart, but he didn't know the old man and the girl.

I saw that the old man made strange moves, and his gestures seemed to be understated, and he was calm and relaxed, and he didn't seem to take this once dominant gang leader in Jiangnan in his eyes at all.

Ma Ronghao started his life and did his best, but he was still invincible and gradually fell into decline.

Wan Yan said with a broken heart: "Look at this old man, he is seventy or eighty years old, in terms of his kung fu, he should be a famous figure in the martial arts for many years, how come he hasn't seen it before? Look at his kung fu, grotesque and exquisite, it is definitely not Middle-earth martial arts, and he is a former enemy who came to find a gap?" It's just that the sudden arrival of such strangers is difficult to predict whether they are friends or foes. Seeing that Ma Ronghao was not his enemy, he immediately shouted: "Please stop for the time being, if you have anything to say, please discuss it slowly, don't hurt the harmony for no reason!"

The old man in the white shirt snorted coldly, but did not answer, and "papapapa" was slapped three times in a row. Ma Ronghao waved his palms to greet him, and he hit fast and took three palms.

The girl in white had a handsome look at Wan Yan Xuan, and then her eyes fell on Wan Yan Fu's face, seeing that his face was as white as jade, with an honest and honest appearance, she couldn't help but smile slightly.

Wan Yanfu has followed his uncle to practice martial arts since he was a child, and he lives in a simple place, how have he ever seen such a beautiful young woman. Seeing that the girl was staring at herself tightly and smiling, she couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly her face turned red to her ears, and she turned her head away.

The girl in white stared at Yan Fu for a long time, and then said warmly to the old man in white shirt: "I said Uncle Xiang, we don't have any deep hatred with this old beggar, I'll just forget it, lest everyone misunderstand again, and make a mistake for no reason!" The voice was crisp and mellow, like a warbler's cry. Listening to the ears is very useful.

Wanyan couldn't help but be stunned again, his heart was like a deer, and he couldn't help but sneak a look at the girl again.

When the old man in the white shirt heard this, he responded: "Yes!" waved his fist to force Ma Ronghao to take a step back, quietly retreated, and stood beside the girl with his hands bowed respectfully. The look was no different from that of the master and servant.

The girl in white was blessed from afar, and said to Wan Yan: "Dare to ask the old man, but is it the prince of Wan Yan and Yan Yan?"

Wan Yan Yan didn't answer and asked: "Don't dare! I don't know who the girl is? Why did you come here today to disturb the cold house?" I thought that I had lived incognito and had lived in the countryside for many years, and suddenly many people came to the door and revealed their identities in one word, and I don't know where these people came from? This is strange.

The girl in white smiled slightly, smiled very charmingly, and said, "Uncle Wanyan is really a noble person who forgets things, this is your old age." The little nephew is the daughter of Khitan Yelu Chuxiong, why don't you know it?"

Wan Yan Xuan was taken aback, and suddenly said: "It turned out to be the 'little naughty' Princess Feifei in the past! The old man has not set foot in the Khitan for many years, so he is clumsy, and he really doesn't know that the virtuous niece has grown up! I don't know if your father has always been good? It often makes me worry about it!"

It turned out that after the Khitan (i.e., Liao) was recovered by the Jin State in the past year, Yelu Chuxiong, a descendant of Yelu Yanxi, the Khitan lord of Liao Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, was still named the prince by the emperor of the Jin Dynasty and led the Khitan people. In order to consolidate his power and protect his clansmen, Yelu Chuxiong often interacted with the dignitaries and nobles of the Jin Dynasty, especially with the Jin Dynasty Pingyan Wang Wanyan. At that time, Yelu Chuxiong's daughter Yelu Fei was just a little girl, and she was intelligent and stubborn by nature, and she often acted strangely and unexpectedly. Every time Wan Yan saw her, he couldn't help but call her "little naughty." “

Yelufei said: "After thanking Uncle Yan Hongfu, my father is in good health, but over the years, he has often been wrecked and depressed because of the ravages of the Yuan people, and it is rare to smile all day long." Alas, it's really hard for him. After that, he sighed slightly, his eyes were red, and tears were dripping.

After Yan extinguished his heart, he thought of his old friends in the past, and he didn't feel silent.

Ma Ronghao said: "Lord Wang, please think twice about what you have to say!"

Wanyan raised his head to the sky and stared at the sky. Flakes of snow fell in the wind, silently sticking to his face. His face, which was already a little old, seemed to become even older in an instant as the snowflakes fell.

Yelufei said: "I have also heard what the two seniors said. This must be the well-known beggar gang leader in Jiangnan, the old man of the Velvet Haoma!"

Ma Ronghao smiled and said coldly: "Don't dare!" There was a lot of disrespect in his words, thinking that he was angry that he was not defeated by the old man in white shirt for the sake of being suitable.

Yelu Fei didn't mind and said, "The Song people and the Khitan have always had a gap. However, that is in the past, and there is no need to worry about what is right and which is wrong. Now, the Yuan people have destroyed us and several other countries, wantonly oppressing us, you and I are sympathetic, we should release our previous suspicions, share the same hatred of the enemy, drive the Yuan slaves, and help the family and country. This translation of generous speeches, through her gentle words, not arrogant or humble eloquent, is naturally a different feeling.

Wan Yan said angrily: "How many six dynasties have been ruined, and they are all in the gossip of the fishing wood." Although Fei Feixian's niece is good, but the country has been in the hands of the Yuan thief for many years, how can she return it overnight? This matter still needs to be considered in the long run. “

The white-shirted old man swept his eyes majesticly, and suddenly said: "Why should the prince worry about gains and losses, just worry about this." As long as we contact people with lofty ideals all over the world, will there be no hope of recovering the country? As the saying goes, 'Where sincerity goes, gold and stone are open', is it true that the prince still can't break through these simple truths?"

Wan Yan's eyes were blazing, and he slowly swept over the white-shirted old man, looking at Yelufei and said, "I haven't asked my niece yet, who is this ......?"

Yelufei smiled, smiled like a flower, opened her lips lightly, and said, "That's it, Uncle Wanyan didn't ask, I almost forgot." This is my father's right-hand man, Xiang Buping, and Uncle Xiang. It is also my nominal Master. By the way, don't look at Uncle Bo's martial arts are not derived from the Central Plains martial arts, but he is an authentic Han Chinese, you should be closer and closer. “

Ma Ronghao said in his heart: "Xiang Buping, why haven't anyone among the Han people ever heard of such a person?" Although he didn't think so, he said: "I see! It's just that the old man is clumsy and disrespectful, please bear with me!"

Xiang Buping snorted slightly, which was considered an answer. Although Ma Ronghao was angry in his heart, it was inconvenient to have a seizure.

Wanyan Fu saw the snowflakes dancing wildly, the cold wind blowing, Yelufei's clothes fluttering, and the slender jade body couldn't help but wind, somehow, pity suddenly appeared in his heart, and said: "Uncle, it's freezing outside, please come into the house and talk!"

And Jerephith listened to him and lifted up his eyes to him. The two looked at each other, and each other's hearts jumped suddenly. Wanyan Fu's face turned red. Yelufei said: "This must be the descendant of the lord of the Dajin Kingdom, right?

Wan Yan Fu lowered his head and replied, "After finishing Yan Fu, I've seen ...... I've seen Princess Feifei!" He has followed his uncle since he was a child, and he has lived in a farmer's house, and he has never spoken a word to a woman who is born in the face. I don't know how to call this Khitan princess who made her ape feel sorry for her when she met for the first time, and said "seen" several times in a row, and finally felt that it was more appropriate to call her "Princess Feifei".

Yelufei smiled and walked into the cottage first. Wan Yan invited everyone to sit down as guests, there was already a ready-made hot tea between the tables, and he instructed Wan Yan Fu to fill the cups in turn.

Yelufei said: "Uncle Wanyan." What the Gang Master said to you earlier, my niece has heard it all. I don't have to talk about it again. Although the Song, Jin, and Khitan have been wars for many years, the people of all ethnic groups have served their masters. I don't believe it, this country, he Yuan people will sit still?"

After Yan Yan pondered for a moment, Fang said slowly: "What the virtuous woman said is not unreasonable. The old man also often thinks about the plan of recovery, but the Dajin Kingdom is now scattered and has long since collapsed...... Where did this matter of recovery come from!", thinking of the hatred of destroying the country, I didn't feel gloomy in my heart, and sighed.

Xiang Buping said: "Where did the prince come from? Didn't the ancestors of your country still have a large amount of wealth left behind? As long as the prince is willing to use the first wealth, use it to recruit troops and horses, and gather clansmen, it is expected that it will not be difficult to succeed in time." “

Ma Ronghao smiled and said: "Although the recovery is the recovery, even if the prince of Wanyan is willing to use the first rich, I don't know who the surname Xiang will help?" The implication is to ridicule him as a Han Chinese, but he is willing to be a Khitan lackey.

Xiang Buping's eyes were like electricity, he stared at Ma Ronghao coldly, and said angrily: "The surname is Ma, don't point to Sang and scold Huai, otherwise, Hugh blames the old man for being unkind to you!"

Ma Ronghao sneered and did not answer. Wan Yan said: "The two of you don't have to quarrel, so as not to hurt and be angry." That's right! Ma gang leader, you have traveled thousands of miles to give up today, with all due respect, it must be for the first wealth left over from my Dajin Kingdom, right?"

Ma Ronghao said: "Yes, Ma does have the heart of a fake prince to drive the yuan with things." “

Wan Yan said: "Since this is the case, I have something to say." “

Yelufei said: "Please ask Uncle Yan to show me." “

Wan Yan said: "Song and Jin were originally feuds, but the Khitan was destroyed at the hands of Dajin. It stands to reason that there is no reason for our three countries to join forces. But in order to drive away the Yuan slave and recover the rivers and mountains, there is no need to remember the past suspicions. But after saying it first, Dajin is just a rumor, and it may not be true......"

Ma Ronghao said: "The prince's words are not from the bottom of his heart. As far as we know, the geographical map of the treasure left behind when Dajin died fell into the hands of the prince. “

Wan Yanxuan's face changed slightly, and he said, "Not bad." The emperor left a drawing with me, but whether it is a map of the hidden treasure or not, I dare not be sure. “

Yelufei said: "That's it! Uncle Wanyan might as well take out the picture, let's follow the map, whether it's true or not, let's give it a try." If we really find the treasure and use it to recruit soldiers and horses, wouldn't it be a blessing in the world!"

Ma Ronghao and Xiang Buping saw that she was reasonable, and they also echoed her.

After Yan Fu entered the house, he said very little, but at this time he suddenly said: "Princess Feifei's words are good, but you and I have different paths, how can you teach me to donate money and put into production, and conspire to great things? If he succeeds in the future, won't this turn the dispute between the three kingdoms into a bloody storm in vain?"

Yelufei's eyes were clear, his face was draped, and he smiled slightly: "What Gongzi Wanyan said is very true." Today, we will swear by high-fives, and he will drive away the Yuan slaves one day, and we will divide the world into three parts, cut the land into the territory, and do not offend each other. “

Ma Ronghao said: "Princess Fei Fei is worthy of being the leader of the Khitan, a heroine among women, she is really fast-talking, better than her husband, he will succeed every day, it should be like this, and he will join forces today." “

Wan Yan said: "Okay! Since this is the case, we will replace the wine with tea and toast as an alliance." After that, he filled the teacups of everyone at the table one by one, raised his glass and stood up first, and said loudly: "The emperor is above, I will wait for the toast as an oath, and conspire to make a big move, he will succeed in the day, if he violates what he said today, he will not die well!"

With that, drink a full cup of tea. Everyone echoed in unison, planing it in the same way, picking up the tea, and drinking it all.

After drinking, Xiang Buping said: "Now that we are no longer outsiders, why don't you borrow drawings for everyone to see?"

Wan Yan said: "That's right." Please wait a moment for me to fetch it. Then he turned and went into the back hall.

Everyone drank tea and waited. Ma Ronghao took the time to go out of the house and go to the toilet. When he came back, Wan Yan had already turned out of the back hall, holding a sandalwood box with a square foot, which would be gently placed on the table in the future.

I saw that the box was covered with dust and dust, and it was slightly yellowish. I think it's been a long time since anyone has opened it. Wan Yan Yan carefully pulled the box spring, only to hear a soft sound of "pop", and the box lid was suddenly lifted. Everyone held their breath and watched intently. The inside of the box turned out to be just a scroll of silk. The silk roll was tightly sealed with fire, and it was slightly shiny. Wan Yan respectfully took out the silk scroll, held it in his hand, and looked into the sky, which was regarded as a disrespectful salute to the first emperor of the Great Jin. Ma Ronghao said in his heart: "It turns out that Wanyan is still a lover." “

After Yan extinguished, he was about to use the fire to roast and turn the fire Qi to fold the silk roll. Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and someone galloped to the front of the courtyard. Listening to the sound is more than just riding. Everyone was taken aback and stood up one after another. Wan Yan quietly returned the silk roll to the box and closed the lid.

I only heard the "bang" of the courtyard door, and someone shouted: "Listen to the thieves in the house, come out and surrender quickly, you can avoid death." If not, you will be left with no bones!" It turned out that the hut had been surrounded by people.
