Chapter 2: Out of the Kyoto Division
"If the second prince wants to reach the pinnacle of martial arts, the best way is to practice, and the best place to experience is the rivers and lakes and the battlefield, only the tempering between life and death can have the opportunity to completely stimulate the potential of the human body, Xia Wei is in the blood and white bones of the Tao. Liu Feng said again.
"I have asked my mother to resign, and I will leave Beijing tomorrow to travel in the rivers and lakes. Hong Dingwu said with a smile.
"The rivers and lakes are not as good as the palace, where there are people who kill every step of the way, people who betray their friends for profit abound, some people don't even need a reason to kill people, and I hope that the second prince can pay more attention to safety at that time. Liu Feng said.
"I was accompanied by my senior brother and Father-in-law Xu this time, so there shouldn't be much of a problem. "Hong Ding Wudao.
"But the rivers and lakes are also a place full of color, some people for relatives and friends to stick a knife in the ribs, some people to defend their lives to protect the justice in their hearts, and some people have no reason to help others, the rivers and lakes are a place full of opportunities and crises, Wei Chen here wishes the second prince this trip opportunities, as soon as possible to break through the shackles, to reach the top of the realm of first-class masters. Liu Feng said.
"Okay, then goodbye Uncle Liu, when I return, let's talk about wine again. After Hong Dingwu finished speaking, he turned around and left the barracks.
In the courtyard, Hong Dingwu stood with a sword, and the sword qi continued to gather and circulate around it, and when the sword qi accumulated to the apex, he danced, playing the original Canglan Sword Technique.
His body is elegant and agile, his sword aura is extremely fierce, and the sword in his hand is fast and gorgeous, like an immortal dancing.
Every time he practices the Canglan swordsmanship, Hong Dingwu is sighing, the master must have captured the hearts of countless girls with this swordsmanship when he was young, the Canglan swordsmanship, not only elegant and smart, but also powerful as a horse, a sword out, the heroes of the world are bowing their heads, extremely chic, which girl's eyes are blind and don't like this?
"Senior brother's swordsmanship has made him more and more handy, and it seems that he will soon be able to break through to the realm of first-class masters. A person suddenly appeared in the courtyard and said to Hong Dingwu.
"But it's still far from being good compared to my brother. Hong Dingwu said with a smile.
"You kid has such a big heart, and you're still better than me, if I'm ten years older than you and you're not as good as you, how can I be your senior brother?" the man said again.
This person is Hong Dingwu's senior brother, named Li Ji, I heard that his father's surname is Li, his mother's surname is Ji, so his name is Li Ji, the age of twenty is six, he is already a top first-class master of the famous rivers and lakes, and is considered to be the most promising person to break through the shackles in recent years and reach the top of the master's realm, because he has already practiced the Canglan swordsmanship to perfection, quite a bit of the style of the Canglan Sword Immortal, so the person gave the nickname Little Sword Immortal, because the palace collection is rich, so he stayed in Beijing, carefully studied, and hoped to walk out of a road of his own.
"Where is the first stop of the junior brother's journey to the rivers and lakes?" asked the little sword immortal.
"I want to reach Jinling through the canal first, I have long heard that Jinling is beautiful in the mountains and waters, and the beauties are like clouds, and I have been fascinated for a long time, so I want to go there first. Seeing that Xiao Jianxian suddenly looked embarrassed, Hong Dingwu asked, "Senior brother, don't you want to go there?"
"It's okay, let's go to Jinling, senior brother is a little sleepy, go back and rest first." After speaking, he turned around and left the small courtyard, looking at the little sword fairy who had been thinking about everything suddenly so sad, Hong Dingwu was a little confused, Jinling, what kind of beastly thing did you do to my senior brother.
It was night, the moon was bright, and the little sword fairy was sitting in the pavilion, looking at the bright moon in the sky, with thoughts and entanglements on his face.
Day 2.
"Second prince, don't you say goodbye to the queen mother and Her Royal Highness the Prince?" said Gonggong Xu, and the young man looked back at the East Palace and Kunning Palace and took a deep look: "No need, since you have already made up your mind, why bother to increase your sadness." Senior brother, I'm going to bother you all the way. Hong Dingwu looked back and said to Li Ji, Li Ji's appearance is indeed worthy of the name of the little sword fairy, handsome appearance, heroic and upright, wearing green clothes fluttering like a fairy, walking on the street will definitely make the young woman spring, the old woman rejuvenate. "Senior brother is polite. Xiao Jianxian said gently.
The three of them led the horse towards the Xuanwu Gate, as the Xuanwu Gate got closer and closer, Hong Dingwu gradually became more and more nervous from the excitement at the beginning, once saw the stories of some strange people from the book, always yearning, but now when he really wants to step into this bloody rain, he seems to be more and more nervous, this time, whether it is the mountains and rivers, make a difference, or the danger, the death of Huangquan. Once you step out of this door, you will become a person in the rivers and lakes, and your future is uncertain. When he arrived at Xuanwu Gate, Hong Dingwu stopped and looked back, looking at the imperial city where he had lived for sixteen years, his eyes filled with reluctance.
"Why, I can't help but leave, or I should stay, the queen mother should be very happy." The young man, who had been facing away from the city gate, spoke. "Brother Huang, why are you here?" Hong Dingwu looked at the young man in front of him with a surprised expression. "Why, I am not allowed to send my brother away?, this is a golden silk armor, which can block the attack of a first-class master, but you should not be reckless because of this, although a first-class master's full blow cannot hurt your skin through this armor, it can hurt your internal organs, so don't easily talk to a first-class master, understand?" Hong Dingwu took the package in the prince's hand, listening to the prince's nagging, his nose couldn't help but sour, and the tears involuntarily slipped down, and the prince reached out to wipe away the tears on his face: "I'm sixteen years old, and I still love to cry my nose." "Who loves to cry nose, it's just that he doesn't give up the royal brother and the queen mother. The prince stepped forward and hugged Hong Dingwu tightly: "I'm tired outside, I'm homesick, even if I come back, the royal brother and the queen mother have been waiting for you, waiting for you to come back and make you your favorite pumpkin pie." This is the token of the imperial brother, and you can show this token when you need to seek help from local officials", the prince handed the token hanging on his waist to Hong Dingwu, and then bowed deeply to the little sword fairy next to him: "Mr. Lao has bothered my brother along the way." Xiao Jianxian hurriedly returned the salute: "Your Highness is serious, my two divisions are out of the same door, and it is my responsibility to protect him." ”
After a period of farewell, the three of them straddled the horse, Hong Dingwu held the reins, glanced back at the prince, his eyes were filled with a little mist again, the prince smiled and slapped the horse's buttocks: "Get out, stinky boy, don't bother people here." In this way, Hong Dingwu embarked on this strange journey with a yearning and fear of the unknown. But what he didn't know was that the farewell between him and the crown prince would be an eternal farewell, and when they met again, they would be separated forever, and the cruelty of reality was what he could imagine as a young man who was twenty-eight years old and had not systematically studied the art of the emperor.
