Zhixin, Ling Kong, Zhou Yuanzhi, Li Cunxiao, Xue Atan and others were happy for Xu Zhi when they saw that Xu Zhi killed Jiang Wangshen with a fluttering sword and avenged the great revenge of the two generations for Grandpa Wang.

Xue Atan shouted: "Brother Xu, Brother Li, Sister Zhou, you should thank me Ah Niu this time, if it weren't for my Ah Niu leading the master and the Taoist to arrive in time, I'm afraid you would all be poisoned by Jiang Wangshen and them!"

Li Cunxiao sighed: "Xue Aniu, you are still a step late, if you can come earlier, Sister He will not leave us!"

Xue Atan said: "Brother Li, don't you know, my Ah Niu returned to Putian Shaolin Temple from Xuanzhou, and only when I saw the master and the Taoist knew that you had gone to Runzhou, we decided to look for you, but we are not familiar with the place in Runzhou, and we don't know how to find you!"

Zhou Yuan Zhiqi said: "Xue Aniu, then how did you know that we were in Jiangshan?"

Xue Atan said: "I, Xue Aniu, am not really stupid, I know that Brother Xu knows the best elder of Jinshan Temple in Runzhou, so we will go to Jinshan Temple to find the best abbot, it turns out that this best abbot is actually the senior brother of Master Zhixin, and when the two met, they hugged their heads and cried!"

When Ling Kong heard this, he was a little embarrassed when he saw Zhixin, and deliberately scolded: "Xue Atan, you still don't admit that you are a stupid cow, why do you talk nonsense, tell the scene of the meeting between Master Zhixin and the abbot of Zhishan, don't you hurry up and talk about the point!"

Xue Atan sighed: "Dao Chief, you also know that Ah Niu is not very good at telling stories, otherwise, you should tell me for me!"

Ling Kong smiled and said: "Okay, let's talk about it simply, after we met the abbot of Zhishan, he didn't know where you went! So let's go to the foot of Beigu Mountain to find a girl with Gao Xiaohui! We only know from her that you went to Jiangshan, rescued Miss Luo, and grabbed strange books! We know that the four of you are weak, and this time you go to Jiangshan is a sheep into the tiger's mouth, so we asked for help from the Zhu gang leader in Taicang, and rushed to Jiangshan! But we are still one step slower, you have already arrived at the main altar of the Jiang Temple, but unfortunately Miss He still sacrificed!"

Xu Zhi listened, and thanked the heroes: "Xu Zhi, thank you heroes for their help, this great kindness will never be forgotten!"

When the heroes heard this, they hurriedly replied: "The alliance leader doesn't have to be polite! Eradicating the Jiang Temple is also for the sake of martial arts!"

Seeing that the top of Jiang Mountain was in a mess, and the disciples of the Jiang Temple had not been dealt with in time, Zhixin suggested: "Don't be busy talking, now that the Jiang family's father and son are dead, and they have a lot of disciples, let's deal with the aftermath first!"

Xu Zhi, Zhixin, Ling Kong and others dismissed thousands of disciples of Jiang Shenmiao down the mountain, and sent away the heroes who went up the mountain to help, only then did they clean up the belongings and books in the Nine Dragons Palace, and finally found the palace collection brought back by Yun Feiyang and others from Jinyang Qianli.

Xu Zhi said to Zhixin and Lingkong: "Master, big brother, in addition to taking revenge, Xu Zhi also has a purpose in going to Jiang Mountain this time, which is to find the "Tui Bei Tu", hoping to unlock the secret!"

Zhixin said: "Amitabha! Xu Zhi, you and Brother Ling are both outsiders, this time we are forced to get involved in the disputes in the rivers and lakes, and now the overall situation of the rivers and lakes has been decided, and it is time for us to return to the mountains and forests!"

Ling Kong also said: "Brother Xu, you should have grown up after so many tempering in the rivers and lakes, and now you are also the leader of the alliance in the rivers and lakes, and you have to take responsibility for everything." To tell the truth, the eldest brother is not interested in any strange books, tantric sects, wealth and wealth, the world, and these things outside the body are still referred to by the elder brother himself!"

Xu Zhi sighed: "The little brother is stupid, the master and the eldest brother are not willing to help Xu Zhi, how long will it take for this big secret to be solved?"

Zhixin smiled and said: "Xu Zhi, have you forgotten that there is also a smart Zhou girl by your side?

Xu Zhi turned his head and saw Zhou Yuanzhi smiling at him, and suddenly there was an inexplicable excitement in his heart, isn't it the greatest wish of my life to be able to return to the mountains and forests with Yuanzhi and spend the rest of my life together?

Zhixin asked the people about their plans again. The two of them said that their wish to avenge the brothers of the Shaolin Temple had been fulfilled, and they were willing to return to South Shaolin to become monks with the letter. Li Cunxiao and Xue Atan decided to go north, lead the disciples of the Coniferous Valley, follow the King of Jin, and compete with Zhu Wen for the world, while Xu Zhi and Zhou Yuanzhi said that after burying He Mengjiao, they would find a place with green mountains and green waters alone, and spend their lives consulting the secrets of "Tui Bei Tu".

Li Cunxiao said to Xu Zhi: "Brother Xu, the younger brother has a reluctant request, since the eldest brother and Sister Zhou have decided to withdraw from the rivers and lakes and return to the mountains and forests, why not give the big treasure to the King of Jin, help him achieve great causes, and return peace to the people as soon as possible!"

Xu Zhi was just about to speak, but was interrupted by volley: "Cun Xiao, it's not the old way to pour a basin of cold water on you, although this King of Jin is a hero in the world, he is a foreign clan of Shatuo after all, even if he can win the world by luck for a while, but the will of heaven is difficult to disobey, the people's will is unpredictable, and his country will not last long!"

Li Cunxiao asked rhetorically: "Then according to what the Taoist chief said, who should give this treasure to?"

Zhixin replied: "Since there is chaos today, and the real hero cannot be identified for a while, then according to what the old man sees, it is better to bury the hard work of the predecessors in the ground forever, hoping that it can find its true master and benefit the people of the world!"

Li Cunxiao suddenly understood, and said: "Master, Dao Chief, Cunxiao understands what you mean, the treasure buried by Senior Luo will definitely find the true master like the Ziqing Sword." No matter how King Jin reuses Cunxiao in the future, Cunxiao will not reveal any secrets about strange books and treasures to him, and Xue Atan will keep this secret for his eldest brother and future generations!"

Xue Atan said: "Xue Aniu has followed the eldest brother all his life and made contributions with the eldest brother, what the eldest brother said, Ah Niu will never disobey!"

When everyone heard Xue Atan's words, they couldn't help laughing. Zhixin, Volley, Anger, Idiot and others saw that the big thing had been decided, and said goodbye to Xu Zhi, Zhou Yuanzhi, Li Cunxiao, and Xue Atan, and went down the mountain.

Besides, Xu Zhi, Zhou Yuanzhi, Li Cunxiao, and Xue Atan took He Mengjiao's body to the Zixia Lake in the mountains, found a good land in the peach forest, buried He Mengjiao, and set up a stone tablet for her: "The Tomb of He Mengjiao in Enzhou."

Xu Zhi, Zhou Yuanzhi, Li Cunxiao, and Xue Atan remembered the good times they had with He Mengjiao, and they couldn't help crying loudly. Especially Xu Zhi, he remembered: he knew He Mengjiao the earliest, although He Mengjiao has always regarded himself as the enemy who killed his brother, but He Mengjiao knows his heart best, He Mengjiao saved himself in Xuejiazhuang, helped himself rob food in Dengfeng, and saved himself again with his life in Jiangshan.

Zhou Yuanzhi saw that Xu Zhi's mood was very low, and persuaded: "Big brother, Miss He sacrificed her life to save her eldest brother, just hoping that Big Brother can live well in this world, otherwise Miss He will also cry in the spirit of heaven!"

Sure enough, a cold wind drifted by, and a thin autumn rain came, Li Cunxiao said to Xu Zhi: "These are Sister He's tears, she doesn't want to leave us!"

Xu Zhi knelt down in front of He Mengjiao's tomb again, and said: "Mengjiao, don't worry, big brother will come here to visit you every year when the spring flowers are romantic and the autumn fruits are abundant! If you have anything to say to the eldest brother, you will give your dream to the eldest brother at night!"

After Li Cunxiao and Xue Atan worshiped He Mengjiao, they were about to go to Taiyuan, Hedong to join the King of Jin, Xu Zhi and Zhou Yuanzhi said goodbye to them: "The road to Taiyuan is very difficult, take care of the two brothers, and the journey is safe!"

Li Cunxiao and Xue Atan also waved their hands and said, "Big brother, Sister Zhou, you also have to take care!" After saying that, he went down the mountain.

Zhou Yuanzhi saw that Li and Xue were far away, so she asked, "Big brother, where are we going?"

Xu Zhi said: "Yuan Zhi, I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to guard Mengjiao's tomb, we might as well find a paradise under this Jiang Mountain, live together, and live a plain life!

Zhou Yuanzhi said with a smile: "Yuanzhi, I have long wanted to live such a life with my eldest brother! Eldest brother, let's not talk about the future things first, let's take out the other half of the fragment of "Tui Bei Tu" first!"

Xu Zhi agreed: "Okay", and took Zhou Yuanzhi's hand, according to what Luo Bin Wang said in his letter, finally under a hundred-year-old pine tree on the side of Zixia Lake, digging three feet into the ground, and saw a small cast iron box, like the box seen in Shouqiu Mountain, it needs to be opened with a dragon and phoenix jade pendant.

Xu Zhi and Zhou Yuanzhi went down the mountain with a small box, and seeing that the rain gradually stopped, the two built a grass hut at the foot of the mountain, and took some daily necessities from the Nine Dragons Palace on the top of the mountain, as well as those boxes of palace books.

Xu Zhi opened the iron box with a jade pendant, and saw that there was only half a piece of yellow paper inside, and there were only a few proverbs and eulogies on it:

"It's not white or black, the grass is out.

Borrow a branch, and the sky is full of blood. ”

Ode said:

Heroes arose on the heads of 10,000 people, and the rivers were red with blood.

A tree of plum flowers is bleak, and the poor nest is empty.

Proverb:

Swinging in the Central Plains, Mo Yu Eight Cows.

The water is not clean, there is blood and no head.

Ode said:

The first and second masters are all ascending, and there is always one family in the vast seas.

Not only did I survive and kill me, but I also had Li Erhua when I turned around.

Zhou Yuanzhi recalled: "We have all seen this elephant in the ancient tombs of Songzhou, it is a plum tree with 21 plum fruits, which was overturned to the ground by a strange ox with eight-character tusks, and even the nest of a cuckoo on the plum tree was overturned to the ground! What is the connection between the two? And how to explain the poems left by Luo's predecessors?"

Xu Zhi thought for a while and said: "This first proverb should be about the current affairs of the rebel army, but the first sentence is not white or black is not easy to understand, and the last sentence of the eulogy should correspond to the overturned bird's nest of the prophecy! But what is the eight cows that knocked down the plum tree and knocked over the bird's nest?"

Zhou Yuanzhi asked: "There are a few things in this fragment that seem to refer to something, and we need to figure out: what does the plum tree represent? What does the bird's nest represent? What does the Eight Bull Monster refer to?"

Xu Zhi suddenly thought of something, and he slowly recalled: "Yuan Zhi, do you still remember that when you were in Songzhou, Li Xiuyun, Zhou Chen and others once said that Li Shu was the surname of the country, and the old Li tree in the picture is likely to represent the Tang Dynasty Emperor?"

Zhou Yuanzhi thought for a while and said, "This is all in the past, but how to explain the fruit on the plum tree, the plum flower?"

Xu Zhi muttered: "Li Shu, Li Guo, Li Hua! Yuan Zhi, don't you think these three are connected?"

Zhou Yuanzhi smiled and said, "Big brother, aren't all three of them all one family? Li Shu gives birth to plum fruits and blooms plum flowers! Then why are there twenty-one plum fruits?"

Xu Zhi sighed: "Yuan Zhi, it's not early tonight, let's rest early!

That night, Xu Zhi had a strange dream: he first talked and played the flute with He Mengjiao in the peach forest where thousands of trees were in full bloom, and then played "Wangjiangnan" with Li Xiuyun on the bank of the Ru River, only to hear Li Xiuyun suddenly stop playing the flute and ask: "Brother Xu, do you still remember Li Guo in the first image of "Tui Bei Tu"?" Xu Zhi was just about to speak, when he heard Li Xiuyun suddenly crying: "This is our royal fate! This Ba Niu is really hateful, but he will not live long, Brother Hui will avenge us!" , After speaking, Li Xiuyun disappeared.

Xu Zhi woke up at night, repeatedly scrutinized what Li Xiuyun said to himself, and suddenly found something, he thought about it carefully, and then suddenly became enlightened.

The next day, Xu Zhi said to Zhou Yuanzhi: "Yuanzhi, eldest brother had a strange dream last night, and finally understood the secret hidden in "Tui Bei Tu"!"

Zhou Yuanzhi smiled: "Then the little sister wants to listen to the big brother's opinion!"

Xu Zhi said: "The first image of the "Tui Bei Tu" is 21 plum fruits, which is the same as the Li Shi on the plum tree, and in the first image, there are clouds: one fruit and one person, that is, the new is the old, then the plum fruit represents the son of the Tang family, the plum tree must be Li Tang Tianxia, then Li Hua must be the descendant of Li Tang! Tang passed on the 21st emperor and died in the world! Now the Emperor has just died, and the new Son of Heaven has just been established, but this cannot change the number of its decline. ”

Zhou Yuanzhi praised: "Brother Xu, your analysis is reasonable! Then Li Shu was knocked down by Ba Niu, which means that Ba Niu is the one who destroyed Li Tang's world?

Xu Zhi said with a smile: "Originally, I couldn't think of it, but in my dream, Li Xiuyun told me that although Ba Niu is hateful, but Brother Hui will avenge her, I immediately thought that Ba Niu is a Zhu character of Zhu Wen, and the ox with eight characters of ivory is not a Zhu character?", after speaking, he used his hand to write and draw again.

Zhou Yuanzhi looked at Xu Zhi's explanation and sighed: "I see, my father and king can't destroy Li Tang, but Zhu Wen, a clown, can do it, it's really providential! But although this Ba Niu was fierce for a while, he was killed by his son in the end, and this country will still return to the hands of the descendants of the Li family! This is: 'Not only did I survive and kill me, but I also had Li Erhua when I turned around.'" 'Explain it!'

Zhou Yuanzhi saw Xu Zhi nodded, and asked again: "Big brother, then there is a bird's nest in the diagram, who will it be?"

Xu Zhi said with a smile: "Yuan Zhi, do you remember that Li Xiuyun once had a dream, in a golden autumn, the nest made by the rhododendron bird with golden chrysanthemum petals must be the yellow nest, it is your father!"

Zhou Yuanzhi sighed: "I see, this also explains that my father was also killed by Zhu Wen, a bastard!"

A few days later, Zhou Yuanzhi also found the palace record hidden in the spine of a pile of palace books, which made a detailed annotation on the "Tui Bei Tu", and it was the same as Xu Zhi's analysis, and even after Tang was usurped by Zhu Wen, it would take 50 years to see Taiping again, this Taiping emperor was born in Songzhou, and it was the same as Li Xiuyun's dream.

In the spring of the next day, Xu Zhi took Zhou Yuanzhi to sweep He Mengjiao's tomb, Zhou Yuanzhi looked at the peach blossoms all over the mountain, and sighed: "Back then, Senior Xu and Senior Luo were heroic and righteous for the secret of this "Tui Bei Tu", and Miss He also gave her life for it. The gangs in the rivers and lakes are fighting openly and secretly, unscrupulously, let it stay in the world, I don't know how much strife and disaster it will cause, big brother, according to what the little sister sees, it is better to burn it completely, this can also cut off the greed of countless people in the world!"

Xu Zhi nodded at Zhou Yuanzhi and said, "That's fine, and the underground Mengjiao can also take a look at the secret of this "Tui Bei Tu"!"

Zhou Yuanzhi threw the "Tui Bei Tu" and its annotation "Tibetan Head Poem" into the fire together, and it turned into a wisp of green smoke after a while.

Xu Zhi saw that Zhou Yuanzhi had finished burning the strange book, so he muttered: "Yuanzhi, you once asked me, what does the poem left by Senior Luo mean?"

Zhou Yuanzhi said: "The world has been in conflict for thousands of years, the strange book is fragmented with the world's sword, the snake shoots the first to become a hegemony, and the purple qi comes to the east into the clouds? The first two sentences of this poem are easy to understand, but the last two sentences are very obscure!"

Xu Zhi explained: "In fact, Senior Luo wants to tell the juniors the clues and locations of the strange book, the third sentence is to tell us that the clues of the strange book are hidden in Shouqiu Mountain, where the snake shooting hero started, and the last sentence is to say that the strange book and the treasure are in Zixia Lake in Jiang Mountain!"

Zhou Yuanzhi praised: "I see, this mystery has also been solved! It seems that the mystery of the strange book that plagued the world was solved by the eldest brother in less than a year, and the little sister really admires it!"

Xu Zhi sighed: "Yuan Zhi, in fact, this strange book not only brings killing and treachery, but also brings faith and justice, the predecessors of our Xu family and the Luo family, just because they saw the sentence 'Li Erhua when they look back' in the strange book, they thought that the revival of the Tang Dynasty was inevitable, so even if they were full of loyalty, they did not give up the ideals and justice in their hearts." If there is a big chaos today, Li Tang's society is about to be replaced by the increasingly big and treacherous villain Zhu Wen, but as long as Li Tang's descendants don't give up, there is still a chance to rebuild Datang!"

Zhou Yuanzhi also sighed: "Punishing evil and promoting good, this is the nature of God!"

Xu Zhi and Zhou Yuanzhi were talking and holding hands, and they gradually disappeared into the splendid peach blossom forest.
