Chapter 69: The Eve of the Great War

Not wanting those good martial arts people to follow him, Li Shidao's figure accelerated, and in an instant, he threw off the tracking and came to the Jade Crane Nunnery on the outskirts of Chang'an alone.

It had just snowed heavily last night, and a thick layer of snow had piled up outside the temple gate.

Li Shidao stepped up, raised his hand to push the door, stepped into the Jade Crane Nunnery, the snow in the courtyard has been swept into seven or eight piles, the trees in the courtyard are covered with snow and pressed branches, silver frost is draped, elegant and quiet.

Beside one of the snowdrifts, which looked like a hill, a nun with clear eyebrows and eyes who at first glance looked nothing special, and was wearing a gray cotton robe, standing with a snow shovel in her hand, looking at him silently with a calm expression.

She seems to be only in her thirties, and her bald head with green silk is particularly emphasizing the plain jade countenance, the beautiful outline like the undulating mountains and rivers, and the eyes that seem to contain a vast and boundless sacred and immeasurable spiritual world, giving people a sense of otherworldly holiness.

(It is worthy of being a beautiful woman who can make my cheap father miss for more than 20 years, even if she leaves home, she is still unique...... )

Li Shidao sighed slightly in his heart, and said indifferently: "Is it the Lord of Fanzhai in person?"

The nun gently put down the snow shovel, and said politely: "If the poor nun is not mistaken, this must be the benefactor of Song Shidao, and he came here to find the little apprentice concubine Xuan and the poor nun." ”

When she said this, she had already admitted her identity, the most mysterious force in the martial arts, the contemporary lord of Cihang Jingzhai who had an extraordinary influence on the righteous path martial arts - Fan Qinghui.

Li Shidao bowed: "Lord Fanzhai guessed well. ”

"Alas!!"

Fan Qinghui sighed in a low voice and said, "Donor, please come with the poor nun." ”

The two came to the reception area of the nunnery and sat down, Fan Qinghui made tea with his own hands, brought it up and put it in front of Li Shidao, and then sat down gently.

Fan Qinghui looked at Li Shidao and took a sip of tea, and said softly: "Lord Song's visit to Yuhe Nunnery this time is to officially declare war on the Li family. ”

"Lord Brahmana is right. Li Shidao nodded lightly and put down the teacup, "The world has been in turmoil for a long time, and the people are struggling to make a living, it's time to end the war." ”

Fan Qinghui suddenly asked, "Does Lord Song think that if he wins the Li family, he will be able to win the world?"

Li Shidao glanced at her with a smile, "Does Lord Fanzhai have any lofty theories to say?"

If you can give inspiration to Lord Song, it is not only the merit of the poor nuns, but also the blessing of the people of the world. ”

Li Shidao laughed, but he didn't refuse: "Lord Fanzhai, please speak." ”

Fan Qinghui took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts, and said secretly: This young man is even more unscrupulous than Song Que at the beginning, if he can't be persuaded here, then there will only be soldiers to meet each other, and the lives will be ruined.

"Fighting the world is not the same as governing the world. Song Shizhu also knew that Na Yingzheng and Yang Jian were both emperors who reunified the divided land, and they both ended up in two generations, which shows that although they have the 'ambition of the world' to unify the Middle Earth, they either owe 'the material of the world' or owe 'the effect of the world'. ”

Li Shidao let out a soft "oh" and didn't say much.

When Fan Qinghui saw this, his eyes lit up with wisdom, and he continued: "'The ambition of the world' refers to the ambition and strength of unifying and governing the world, the 'material of the world' is the ability to govern the world, and the 'effect of the world' is the effect of ruling the world. Don't say far away, only say that Yang Jian, after his accession to the throne, the old and the new, opened the 'rule of the emperor' of the prosperous era, and gradually pacified the south, the majestic material, at that time the world can compete with it, only your father Song Que is alone, but with Song Que's conceit, he still has to avoid Lingnan and be sealed by him. Yang Sui had a lot to do, but unfortunately he was defeated by Yang Guang, so what could he do?"

Li Shidao nodded and said: "Therefore, Lord Fanzhai thinks that Li Shimin has more 'ambition of the world' and 'material of the world' than others, and is more likely to achieve the 'effect of the world'." ”

Fan Qinghui sighed lightly: "Naturally, we are not qualified to choose the future Ming Jun, but we just try our best to assist the wise people who meet our own wishes, hoping to make some contributions to the suffering people, and support and encourage them with our meager strength." Now the opportunity to unify the world has appeared, as the donor said, and it is determined by the donor's thoughts. ”

Li Shidao sighed: "If I had heard this Gao Lun of the lord before, I would have quit the rivers and lakes, but before my father and Ning Daoqi fought a decisive battle, I received a family letter carrying his last wish, which was still the great wish of the Han people to restore the mountains and rivers, and as a son of man, I had to do my best." ”

"This move is just foolishness!" Fan Qinghui said hurriedly, "Listening to what the donor just said about the people of Dawn, it is obvious that he is a person of insight who cares about the suffering of all beings, why did he put Dawn in fire and water because of your father's wishes." The benefactor is merciful, how can he bear it?"

"Just as you are convinced that Li Shimin can become a generation of masters, I also believe that my father can become the hero who can lead the people to rise and establish a prosperous world. Li Shidao stood up, "I have benefited a lot from a conversation with Lord Fanzhai today, but the Tao is not the same, and Song has resigned." Please send a message to the Li family on my behalf. ”

Fan Qinghui's expression was gloomy, and he sighed softly: "Please speak." ”

"Three days later, at noon, I made an appointment to fight the Li family at the Yuema Bridge. The deadline is three days, as long as anyone can defeat me, I will completely withdraw from this troubled water, and if no one can defeat me, the Li family must give up the place they occupy and submit to my Song family. If not, free my knife to greet!"

After finishing speaking, Li Shidao brushed his sleeves and left.

"Please wait......"

Fan Qinghui's expression changed, looking at Li Shidao's back gradually moving away, all the words finally just turned into a sigh, she knew that this bloody battle could not be avoided. Judging from the fact that the other party can kill the "Wuzun" Bi Xuan, and then the "Demon Marshal" Zhao Deyan, and easily leave the ****** army, even if they can win, they will have to pay an unimaginably heavy price.

However, Fan Qinghui is very human after all, she quickly collected her mood and began to calculate in her heart: "Brother Ning Dao and Song Que were seriously injured in the first battle and have not recovered, and the only person who can fight head-on is him......"

★★★

Since ancient times, the land of China, there have been many martial artists, the rivers and lakes have changed, the strong are like clouds, and there have been countless amazing and brilliant characters in the history of the rivers and lakes, and countless legends that can be sung and cried. In the minds of martial arts people, the weight of top peerless masters is more deterrent than that of secular emperors, which is one of the reasons why ancient and modern emperors list martial arts people as key surveillance targets.

At this time period, the three major grandmasters were Ning Daoqi, the "first person in the Central Plains", Fu Cailin, the "first person in Goryeo", and Bi Xuan, the "first person in the East, Turks, and Turks". These three grandmasters have become the spiritual pillars of the three nations, representing the expectations and trust of the people, and the victory of one side over the other side will certainly greatly assert the morale of one side, promote the sense of honor and pride of the nation, and even have the effect of surrendering the army without a fight.

It's a pity that the three great grandmasters hold their own identities, and because of their heavy responsibilities, they will never easily start a war with the other two great grandmasters, so that the three parties do not have the pride to completely raise their eyebrows.

But now Li Shidao killed Bi Xuan in the army, which greatly contributed to the breeze of the Han people and attracted the admiration and pride of countless martial arts people. Now the news that this new Grand Master openly invited the Li family, which occupies half of the world, has spread, and it immediately makes the entire Central Plains martial arts boil again.

Now the situation is clear, the Li family, the Song family and Kou Zhong each occupy half of the country, Kou Zhong is Song Quan's quasi-son-in-law, it can be said that half of the world is in the hands of the Song family, but the Li family is divided into three parts, Li Shimin supported by Cihang Jingzhai, Li Jiancheng supported by the Demon Gate, and Li Yuan, who has the largest power in the DPRK and the smallest martial arts force.

In other words, Li Shidao's invitation to fight is tantamount to inviting the world to fight, and the martial arts people who worship force the most suddenly went crazy one by one, and rushed to Chang'an desperately.

In just three days, the flow of outsiders in Chang'an has reached a jaw-dropping value, and the daily consumption of daily necessities and supplies has made the supply side almost have a scene of insufficient supply, and other miscellaneous things are countless, even if the official post a notice, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of the martial arts people.

No one knows the answer to this battle, only that this battle will be the most influential battle in the history of martial arts. Song Shidao won, the Li family will naturally not be stupid enough to really give up the world, but the reputation and prestige are stinking all of a sudden, and they can no longer be compared with the Song family in this regard;

The atmosphere of Chang'an becomes more and more eerie and quiet as time approaches, and the atmosphere of depression and fiery impact can be seen everywhere.

This day is the time of the decisive battle.

Li Yuan had already issued a ban, strictly prohibiting the people from going out, strictly prohibiting the people from watching the decisive battle, and ordering the people to close the doors and windows tightly, especially the residents in the area of the Yuema Bridge, who were forcibly ordered to move to other places. Since the morning, the Fuju Building in the West Market, which used to be lively, has been surrounded by heavy soldiers.

The streets were quiet, and there was no one but the warriors who came and went quietly.

Fuju Building has been seized by people with status, and the various principals of the Li family, military generals, and representatives of some wealthy families from all over the country are here.

Wulin people are accustomed to sleeping in the open air, and many people occupy seats around the Yuema Bridge a day early to wait, eating and drinking here. Now that the decisive battle has arrived, everyone has held their breath and safely found a favorite place, waiting for the two sides of the decisive battle to appear on the empty Prancing Horse Bridge.

This battle is an unprecedented event in the rivers and lakes, and it is also the first decisive battle with the largest and widest influence since ancient times, and no martial artist wants to miss it.

Some literati and writers who have connections or pretend to be martial artists have quietly prepared pen and paper, ready to record the decisive battle of this day, even if it is forbidden to spread it afterwards, they can use it as evidence of the truth.

Many people are speculating that in the face of a great master like Song Shidao, who can kill the "Martial Venerable" Bi Xuan, what kind of opponent will the Li family send to fight......
