The dragon gave birth to nine sons, and the eldest son imprisoned the cow.

The Yuwen Nine Bones is a prison bull stick with an extraordinary origin, which came from the hands of Zhang Yajiu, a swordsmith in the Tang Dynasty.

Bai Juyi's poem "Crow Nine Swords": "A thousand years after Ou Zhizi's death, the elf secretly taught Zhang Yajiu. Crow nine casting sword Wu Mountain, the sky and the sun when the god borrows the merit. ”

Legend has it that after casting the sword of Crow Nine, Zhang Yajiu put the remaining iron into the furnace for forging, but for 7749 days in a row, this piece of iron could not be burned through. On this day, I was napping, and suddenly dreamed that the dragon head snake body was thrown into the furnace, and suddenly woke up to find that the iron in the furnace was like a dragon's groan, and it became a stick after taking it out, engraved with dragon scales, and the head of the stick faintly appeared the dragon's head.

He wielded it at will, the big stick could be in line with his heart, he could bend or straighten, and he was extremely powerful, because the body of the dragon head snake resembled a prison cow, so it was named "the prison cow stick".

Yuwen Jiugu wandered the rivers and lakes when he was young, traveled around Qiantang, and found this big stick in Wushan by mistake, and saw that the stick body was engraved with the word "prisoner cow", and the tail of the stick had the seal of "Zhang Yajiu", so he knew the origin of this blade.

The prisoner cow is secretly in line with his ambitions. Since then, he has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes with a stick, and he has also made a name for himself, ranking among Mr. Shiling.

If you talk about fist and foot kung fu, Yuwen Jiugu is far from being Wu Shijiu's opponent. At that time, he almost lost face on the immortal tower of Yingtianfu Hui, but he was immersed in this prison cow stick for many years, and a set of "prison cow stick method" was unfolded, and the strength was lingering, sticky, dialing, sweeping, picking, poking, and splitting tricks. Sometimes the grass is looking for snakes, sometimes the green dragon is rolling into the sky, but I see the shadow of the stick in the sky.

At first, Wu Shijiu was in a hurry.

However, at the beginning of the design of the innate twelve styles, it was originally considered to deal with attacks from all directions, and Wu Shijiu moved to change the position of "Juntian Guangle", "Tiansu Majiao" and "Unknown Vision" at any time.

The two of them dismantled and changed the style and fought back and forth for more than ten moves, Yuwen Jiugu was surprised by the blade, and Wu Shijiu suffered from a serious injury at the beginning of recovery, and his internal strength was not pure. was fighting inseparably, and suddenly someone shouted: "Release the arrows", and a rain of arrows came straight to Yuwen Jiugu.

It turned out that after cleaning up the remnants of Li and Wen, Asal and Ashinavi found that there were still people fighting, and one of them was Wu Shijiu, and immediately recruited a large number of crossbowmen to help.

The situation took a turn for the worse, Yuwen Jiugu opened the prison bull stick and fired arrows, and then looked at the other side, Mrs. Shili and the Governor of the Maid, Hu Jinjin and others had also fallen into a heavy siege, thinking that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, and they must leave as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, he whistled on his horse, joined with the others, broke out of the encirclement, and left in embarrassment.

Ashinavi and Asal were concerned about Jueru's injury, and had no intention of chasing after him, so they came to Jueru's side one after another, only to see that his eyes were closed, his face was already dark, and Wu Ma Liangcuo's short arrow was still in his body.

Ashinawei was so anxious that tears fell: "What can I do about this? If I can't find Danba grass within seven days, I feel like Zampu ......."

Asal said: "This place is still a long way from the Devil's Eye, and if it is a good horse, it can be reached in five or six days, but I don't know if I can find Danba grass immediately." ”

The two of them were in a hurry, and no one noticed that a Qianqian Su hand reached out from the side, held the short arrow on Jueru's shoulder, and pulled it out violently.

Jue screamed like "ah", his eyes rolled up, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive. Everyone was frightened by this sudden move, and Ashinawei pulled out his knife and cut off the man's head.

Wu Shijiu stepped forward to stop him, and everyone saw clearly that the one who pulled out the short arrow turned out to be the one who assassinated Li Lizun.

Ashinawei's eyes were red, and he glared at Wu Shijiu and shouted, "What are you stopping me from?

"Don't get excited, she has something to say. ”

But he saw that he didn't move Zijin with a short arrow, and wrote on the ground with a stroke: "Big barge, psyllium, ground turtle insect, iron bull seven, go and prepare quickly." ”

Asal led the troops to fight, and there were often wounded soldiers who needed to be treated, and he knew that these were medicines to heal the wounds and stop bleeding, and they were always available in the army, so he couldn't think about it at the moment, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to prepare.

The work is not large, and the medicinal materials are ready. Without moving Zijin, he found someone to bring a stone mortar, endured the pain, mashed a few herbs, mixed them with barley wine, and made a paste and applied them to Jueru's wound.

After about a cup of tea, Jueru let out a soft "um" and slowly opened his eyes: "I...... What's wrong with me? What about the demon monk?"

Ashina wept with joy: "Wake up, wake up, feel like Zampu wakes up......"

Asal said: "Jueru Zampu was injured by the apprentice of the tantric demon monk Beji Dorje by stealing a cold arrow, but the tantric demon monk and Li Lizun and Wen Puqi have all been killed, I have sent troops to control the military camp, and the civil strife has been quelled, but it is just ......"

Jueru said slowly: "Just what?"

Ashina Wei said: "It's just that the demon monk shot you with an arrow, which is exactly the same as the method used by his master to shoot Dama Zampu back then, and the arrow has also been soaked in the spring water of the Demon Eye, so it can pierce the Yongzhong monk's clothes." If you want to heal your arrow wound completely, you must find the damba grass within seven days. ”

Jueru said: "Alas, this is probably the fate, I should have this fate." If I take my life in exchange for the unification of all the Tibetan tribes and long-term peace and stability, I will also die as I deserve. ”

Asal choked up and said: "Where did Jueru Zampu say, I will definitely do our best to find the Danba grass, even if I risk my life, I will save Zampu." ”

Then he gave an order, ordered someone to set up the carriage and horses, put Jueruping in the car, and set off for the devil's eye.

Jueru said: "General and slow, Brother Zongcheng has just quelled the civil strife, and someone needs to take care of it, so the matter of finding Danba grass should be left to Ashinawei." ”

Ashina Wei also said: "Please ask General Asal to stay behind Brother Zong and deal with the aftermath, on the side of the camp in the east of the city, I hope that the general will do his best to maneuver, and I feel that if Ashinawei and Wu Gongzi take care of it, it will be fine." ”

Asal had seen Wu Shijiu's methods and knew that this young man was outstanding in martial arts, had a good character, and was trustworthy. At the moment, he received the order and sent someone to the camp in the east of the city to contact another Wanhu Prefecture, Lausanne Pearl, and strive to control the military power.

Everyone was busy, but they saw that Zijin was staggering and unstable, and his body fell to the ground. Her right shoulder was dripping with blood, and half of her clothes had been soaked, and everyone remembered that she was desperately injured and assassinated Li Lizun, and was pierced by a sword through her right shoulder.

Wu Shijiu hurriedly smeared the remaining wound medicine in the stone mortar on her wound, found a bandage to bandage it, and pressed her palms against the Fengmen acupoint of her vest, slowly transmitting the internal force over.

After a while, Zijin woke up without moving, and found himself leaning on Wu Shijiu's arms, a warm current on his vest slowly penetrated, knowing that he was healing himself. She moved her fingers and tried to write on the ground, but the wound hurt and she could barely lift her arm.

Wu Shijiu said: "Do you want to write?"

He nodded, tried a few more times, pulled the wound, and sweat beads rolled down in pain.

Wu Shijiu really couldn't bear it, so she gently held her hand in her palm, spread out her palm and said, "You write it here." ”

Wu Zijin was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red, and he bit his lower lip and wrote: "I know how to find Danba grass and take me there." ”

Gasi grassland, the pearl of the plateau hidden deep in the Qaidam Basin.

During the Han Dynasty, it was once an ancient Qiang settlement, and the Qiang State was built. In the period of the Two Jin Dynasty, the Gasi grassland became the territory of Tuyuhun. Because of the wetlands, salt lakes, swamps, and the large number of saline-alkali lands, the living environment is not ideal. In the period of Li Lizun, the various tribes of Tubo fought for many years, and the population gradually decreased, and it was even more sparsely populated and rarely visited.

Ashinawei and Wu Shijiu and others drove the carriage and horses, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and came to a lake basin on the fifth day.

Everyone looked around, only to see that the water quality of this lake basin was clear and blue, the shore of the lake was surrounded by a large area of reeds, and the unknown water birds saw that someone was coming, and the hula flew up in the air, covering the sky and the sun.

Ashnawei lifted the curtain of the car, and when he saw that his lips were chapped and his face was pale, he motioned to the soldier to bring a water bag and feed him a few sips of water. Jueru said: "Where have we been?"

"According to the girl who didn't move, it's not far from the devil's eye, and if the legend is true, the damba grass grows by the spring, and we will be there about tomorrow by this time. ”

Jueru nodded, closed her eyes and stopped talking.

It was past noon, and the people were already hungry and thirsty, so Ashinawei motioned for the troops to stop and rest. When the soldiers saw that the water in the lake basin was crystal clear, they ran to drink the water, and they heard a few people in the front row suddenly sip a few mouthfuls and exclaim: "What's the matter with this water? It's salty and bitter, and the more you drink, the more thirsty you become." ”

Wu Shijiu also ran forward, picked up a handful of water and tasted it, it was so salty that it was bitter and difficult to swallow, and then looked at the shore of the lake bed, there were clusters of crystals everywhere, he broke a few and tasted it, it was even saltier.

It appears that this is a salt lake.

After a few days of recuperation, and Wu Shijiu conveyed internal force, he was able to ride a horse alone at this time. She has lived in Liangzhou since she was a child, and she was originally familiar with riding and shooting, although her right shoulder was injured and just scarred, she always gritted her teeth and insisted on doing things by herself, and never bothered others.

At this moment, seeing everyone grinning bitterly, they couldn't help but smile and bend over, and then made a "come with me" gesture to Wu Shijiu and the others, and walked to the barren beach outside the lake basin.

After a while, he found a huge flower bush, the leaves of which were as wide as the palm of a hand, extending a few zhang long, and the ends had long since dried up and curled, and only the roots were still a little green. Without moving, Zijin folded off a leaf and put it in his mouth to taste it, and motioned to Wu Shijiu and the others to pick up the flower bush by the roots.

Some soldiers drew their waist knives and dug down, and in a short time they dug up a large piece of rhizome, which was more than a hug wide. He took a knife from one of his hands and cut a gap in the rhizome, causing a lot of water to flow out of it.

The root system of this plant actually stores a large amount of fresh water, and everyone comes up to you to take a sip and I take a sip, shouting sweet and refreshing.

There are still many such plants on the barren beach, and Ashina Wei led people to dig a few more places and fill the water bags. Some people are hungry and chew and eat together with the rhizomes, only to feel a little spicy, but they can swallow it.

Zijin smiled and waved his hand, pointed to the distance with his hand, and everyone put their hands on the pergola to look, and saw a few Gobi yellow sheep scattered eating the turf, and immediately understood her intentions.

These people are all carefully selected Hehuang warriors, who have been in battle for a long time, and it is natural to fight a few yellow sheep, and it will not be long before someone shoots down three or four yellow sheep. The crowd was carried to the lake basin and peeled and cleaned, and they couldn't wait to make a fire and start a barbecue. didn't move Zijin to stop everyone and motioned for her to cook.

I saw that she was holding a short knife, and in three or five strokes, she removed the bones of the yellow sheep, and then cut the fat and thin mutton into pieces. Then he picked out a hairy belly from the discarded internal organs, cut a small opening, poured out the undigested grass juice gastric juice inside, cleaned it in the lake water, turned the hairy belly over, loaded it into the cut mutton pieces, went to the lake to collect some saline-alkali crystals, found a few wild onions, and chopped them into minced pieces together with the rhizomes of the water-storing plant, stuffed them into the hairy belly, and tied the incision firmly.

She moved skillfully, and in a few moments, she pricked a few hairy bellies out and buried them in the red-hot coal-fire.

Not long after, the hairy belly was heated and expanded, filled with gas but could not be released, and gradually bulged. Several soldiers almost drooled, and asked, "It's not okay?", "When can I eat?......

Wu Zijin just shook his head with a smile, waited for a while, and picked out a hairy belly with a short knife, only to stab it, a fragrance sprayed out, and even Wu Shijiu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

The hairy belly cracked, and the bright lamb was revealed, mixed with the aroma of wild spices, wafting far away in the wilderness.

The crowd was about to feast when they heard someone sniff vigorously in the reeds by the lake and shout, "Incense...... Where is it, where is it? I want to eat it too!"
