Chapter 6: Birth (1)
Snow Lotus Sect back mountain, the highest part of the mountain peak stands a purple shadow standing with his hands in his hands, looking at the figure from a distance like a real illusion, green silk flying, clothes fluttering like an immortal, as if he can break through the sky at any time.
Approaching and taking a closer look at a peerless beauty who captivates the country and the city, I see that the eyebrows are like distant mountains without painting, the eyes are like autumn water, calm without waves, the faint eyes are like looking down on ants, people dare not look directly, and the lips are like sand, and they are not dotted and vermilion. The skin is delicate and clear, like snow and jade.
This is none other than Miao Ruolan, who took over the Snow Lotus Sect six years ago. In the past six years, she has practiced Haoyu's mental method to the eighth level, and she has reached the realm of Great Perfection and cultivated the immortal body in just one step, but no matter how she cultivates, she has not advanced an inch, Miao Ruolan knows that the road to cultivation is urgent, not only needs the chaotic qi but also needs the improvement of the state of mind.
What is the state of mind: chaotic qi is like water, the state of mind is like a water cup filled with water, fill the water cup, the water will overflow when it is full, if you want to continue to fill the water, you have to change to a larger cup. The continuous improvement of the state of mind is like constantly changing to a bigger cup. The chaotic qi of this planet is limited and cannot be replenished, and as for the state of mind, it is impossible to figure out, just like an epiphany, sometimes staying in one realm, or it can break through in the blink of an eye, or it may stay here forever, and there will never be a breakthrough day.
In the past six years, not only has she been improving her cultivation, Miao Ruolan has been preparing for the Central Plains martial arts, and has been the leader of the sect for six years.
Internally, she used thunderous means to kill those who refused to surrender in the name of judging religion. Externally, under her leadership, the Snow Lotus Sect first subdued the three mountains and seven islands outside the Saiwai, and then the five sects and thirteen forts, and the entire Saiwai martial arts were all in the bag. Now is the time to be born and march into the Central Plains martial arts.
It's not that she longs for power, but she has to be like this, if she had the current power back then, her parents would not have died, she and Brother Zhao would not have been separated for sixteen years, and Brother Zhao would not have been wronged and tortured in these sixteen years, but soon all this will end, and Brother Zhao will be guarded by her from now on.
At this time, the Snow Lotus Sect, there are two protectors of the left and right under the leader, and the left protector is Beitang Chunyan, at this time she is no longer willful, and her parents died overnight so that she quickly matured, in the past six years, she has been focusing on poison, vowing to avenge her parents, and the current left protector is in charge of the affairs of the sect;
The right protector is Miao Cuizhu, and today's bamboo is no longer the simple little girl who followed Miss Miao back then, both inside and outside the cultivation makes a good swordsmanship, and is in charge of the precepts in the sect.
Under the Dharma Protector, there are four halls: Guiyun Hall, Shadow Hall, Blood Killing Hall, and Tianyin Hall.
The master of Guiyun Hall is none other than Miao Ruolan's daughter Zhan Ruowan, the girl at that time was already in the age of Ji Xuan, with a beautiful appearance, although she was three points inferior to Miao Ruolan, she was also a country and a city. Zhan Ruowan's Haoyu Mind Method has been practiced to the fourth level, and it can be said that it can be regarded as a half-immortal body. When she was ten years old, Zhu'er took her down the mountain to experience, Zhan Ruowan punished the evil all the way, and never tolerated the wicked, although it did not kill people, but it was also broken hands and feet, nose and ears. Because she was very spicy, she was nicknamed "Little Witch" by the rivers and lakes.
Since taking over Guiyuntang, despite his young age, he has also managed it tightly and orderly. Guiyuntang is in charge of the economy of the Snow Lotus Sect, and there are 360 lines from all over the Central Plains as far as Saiwai, and all of them are bought and sold by Guiyuntang.
Of course, no one knows that it is the business of the Snow Lotus Sect, but in recent years, there has been a rising star in the shopping mall, "Guiyun Villa", every business in Guiyun Villa has business, and it is strong, and it has been a business giant in a few years. Seventy percent of the economy of the entire Song Dynasty was in the hands of Guiyuntang.
The main sword of the Shadow Hall is ruthless, leading the killers, the best killers in the entire martial arts world gather here, these killers are skilled, and their bodies are like ghosts, and none of the prey targeted by them escapes, and it has made people change color in the rivers and lakes.
Yang Qing'er, the master of the Blood Killing Hall, is one year younger than Miao Ruolan, but she is also not easy to provoke the winner, with a fiery temper and bloody killing, she will rush to the front every time there is a battle, and she will never take half a step back, and she has been charging forward every time she has fought with Song Liao over the years.
The last is the hall master of Tianyin Hall, only this one of the four hall masters is a man, twenty years old this year, his name is Yang Zhenhan and Yang Qing'er, the hall master of the Blood Killing Hall, is brother and sister, Tianyin Hall is responsible for collecting intelligence, although this hall is the most low-key, but it is also the most important.
Those who don't know can never imagine how terrible Tianyintang's intelligence network is, although the Snow Lotus Sect has not set foot in the Central Plains, but his intelligence network has already spread all over the Central Plains, from the palace, the mansions of high-ranking officials and nobles, down to the various major sects of martial arts, and some intelligence personnel are even important figures in the imperial court and major sects. If there is a slight change in the Central Plains, whether it is the imperial court or the rivers and lakes, Miao Ruolan will soon get the news, and the entire Central Plains will be under control.
At this time, the entire Snow Lotus Sect had reached more than 100,000 members, forcing both Song and Liao to send envoys to contact them to show their friendship.
Miao Ruolan will not mention it for the time being. Let's say that the envoy sent by the Great Song Dynasty in the Central Plains is no one else, it is really Lord Yin Bao Zheng of Kaifeng Mansion, and only in this kind of major event does the emperor dare not be negligent, and only Lord Bao can feel at ease when he does it, if it is replaced by Pang Taishi, well, it is estimated that the emperor also thinks twice, and does not dare to use the Jiangshan Society of the Great Song Dynasty to make his wife happy.
After Lord Bao received the holy decree, he packed up and prepared to set off, and the people who accompanied him naturally had to be Gongsun Ce and Zhanzhao, which could be regarded as the military generals of Kaifeng Mansion, all of which were indispensable.
Zhanzhao has lived like a year in the past 16 years, Miao Ruolan has disappeared, there is no news, and Zhanzhao has been waiting hard. It's not that no one has given him a matchmaker to get married, Zhan Zhao refused to go out of the door, Lord Bao and Mr. Gongsun have asked the reason more than once, and they have all been prevaricated one by one by Zhan Zhao on the pretext that he has no business as the priority and has not yet started a family, how can he and Miao Ruolan declare the matter.
At that time, the bloody and vigorous character of the rivers and lakes had long been reined in, and at this time, Zhanzhao was forced by reality to keep his eyes on his obscurity, and he was more calm and introverted, and he put the overall situation of forbearance in case of trouble.
Time did not leave the slightest trace on that jade-like face, and Ruolan's departure made him a little more melancholy, and it seemed that he had a little more mature charm. It's okay to go to the Song-Liao border with Lord Bao this time, just take a break and change your mood.
In the past 16 years, he has almost never left Kaifeng City, and Kaifeng Mansion and Taishi Mansion have fought several times, each with its own victory and defeat, but it has never brought down Pang Taishi, and Pang Taishi has never been able to bring down Master Bao.
But the situation has not been good recently, Li Guotai, who can support Lord Bao, has been terminally ill recently, and on the occasion of his death, Taishi Pang has seized the opportunity to make things difficult for Lord Bao everywhere these days, although the emperor has not cured Lord Bao's sin, but he is also secretly annoyed by Bao Zheng, if it were not for this mission to the Snow Lotus Sect, he may have already cut Lord Bao.
Thinking of the idea here back then, I couldn't help but come up again, Lord Bao worked day and night, for the sake of the country, how many times the people of Li were born and died, and they worked hard, in exchange for something, it was not as useful as the woman's whisper on the pillow, and I couldn't help but be disappointed in the court and the emperor in my heart.
Zhan Zhao knew that Lord Bao's trip was not smooth sailing, which was secretly murderous, every step was terrifying, no matter what, this trip must ensure that Lord Bao returned safely, as long as this merit was complete, the emperor would not be embarrassed by Lord Bao again, thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly decide that he must help Lord Bao complete this task.
