Chapter 38: Great Wealth

Chapter XXXVIII

Once the third princess of Daming, Zhu Jingyue's position in Datong City was quite embarrassing.

The Yasukuni Army is the main division of the "Righteous Army", with the ultimate goal of overthrowing the rule of the Ming Dynasty, while the Di Jiajun originally belonged to the old Ming Dynasty, but now it is in the same camp as Zhang Fengyi and others...... To put it mildly, they are all anti-thieves and enemies of the Ming Dynasty!

In such an environment, Zhu Jingyue's pressure is not small.

Fortunately, Zhu Jingyue only presided over the affairs of the mortal sect, and there was little friction with the Yasukuni Army...... Coupled with the presence of Long Jun and Ding Yi in the army, the contradictions between the two sides gradually eased, and even helped each other harmoniously. At least, now everyone has a common enemy - Zhu Jingkang.

......

"Ah Jun, you are in a hurry to find me, is something happening?"

Zhu Jingyue's expression was still indifferent, but when she saw that delicate and evil face, she couldn't help but flash a touch of softness in her eyes.

Zhu Feng's cheeks were flushed, and he was silently by his side.

Seeing the second daughter coming, Long Jun and Ding Yi did not hide their love in their eyes, and the others were also very polite. For many years, we have already developed a tacit understanding with each other.

"Zhu girl, you came just in time......"

Long Jun ushered in the second daughter and led to Qi Mingyou and said, "This is Qi Mingyou, Master's brother, and we are about to ask for news from Master." ”

"Master?!"

Zhu Jingyue and Zhu Feng looked at each other, with some doubts in their eyes, who Qi Mingyou is They have not heard of, but the master in Long Jun's mouth ...... Everyone knows that there is only one master of Long Jun and Ding Yi, and that is a generation of fierce gods - sword madness Li Yuefan!

It's a pity that Li Yuefan has been missing for ten years, and there has been no news so far, is it ......

With a sudden shock, Zhu Jingyue's second daughter looked at Long Jun in surprise, and said in a lost voice: "Isn't it, you have news from Mr. Li?"

Seeing the other party's excited expression, Ding Yi hurriedly took over and said, "That's right, Brother Mingyou brought the news of the master...... Look, even the little fire is back!"

Zhu Jingyue's second daughter followed her gaze, and the strange beast under the young man's feet was Xiaohuo. That's right, that is the fierce beast that Li Yuefan is following. Although there was a slight change in appearance, they still recognized it at a glance.

With Xiaohuo, Zhu Jingyue didn't doubt Qi Mingyou's identity, and only looked at the other party.

"Brother Mingyou, let's talk about it, Master, how is he now?"

Long Jun asked again, and the rest of the people all looked serious.

No matter whether Li Yuefan is alive or dead, good or bad, they all want to know the news of the other party, a news that has been waiting for 10 years! Of course, all the people are very hopeful that what they hear will be good news.

Looking around at the eager gaze around him, Qi Ming's right heart was slightly sour, but he didn't know where to start.

Li Yuefan died with the demon master ten years ago, and this matter has a lot to do with himself and the tomb guarding family. Now that the people are gone, how can he answer? He can't let these people wait ten years and get the news of a great disappointment...... Li Yuefan died ten years ago!

Sometimes, a white lie is also a good wish, even if it is the slightest hint of anticipation in the heart.

Turning a thousand times in his heart, Qi Mingyou finally spoke: "Don't worry, Brother Yue Fan, he is alive now, and he is alive and well......"

As soon as the words were spoken, all the hearts that were mentioned were suddenly put down, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief. No one understands the meaning of life better than these battle-hardened people who are accustomed to seeing life and death...... It's good to be alive, as long as you live, there will be hope!

"Great, great! Master is still alive, Master is still alive......"

Long Jun and Ding Yi had tears in their eyes, and the two people who had tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection since they were children hugged and cried together, like two orphans who found their parents, pouring out their attachments. At this moment, they felt an unprecedented happiness envelop their souls.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Qi Mingyou nodded secretly. He knew that his approach was not necessarily the best, but it was the most appropriate choice at the moment. Maybe one day this lie will be revealed, but he will never regret his decision today.

Behind Qi Ming's right, Tiansheng looked at Ah Tu, and a few inexplicables flashed in his eyes. Of course, they knew the real situation, but they didn't understand why the young master was lying.

The two were tempted to voice their doubts, but eventually gave up.

......

After a while, Long Jun and Ding Yi's minds gradually calmed down, and then they remembered that the master's situation had not been finished yet.

So Ding Yi wiped away his tears and said eagerly: "Brother Mingyou, when I suddenly heard the news from the master, I can't help this horse urine, but it makes you laugh...... Please go on and say, where has Master been for the past 10 years, and why hasn't he come back to us all the time?"

Ding Yi's casual question made everyone stunned. Yes, for ten years, since people are still alive, why haven't they been there? Is there any other reason?

With a nervous mood, everyone turned their eyes to Qi Mingyou, who didn't panic at all.

"It's a long story......"

After a pause, Qi Ming let out a long breath and said: "Back then, I was taken upstairs and upstairs, and threatened Brother Yue Fan with my life to help them find the treasure, and then we came to a lonely island, who knew that many incidents had happened......"

At the moment, Qi Mingyou truthfully told a series of things that happened back then: looking for treasures, guarding the tombs, ancient inheritance, Qinhuang Underground Palace, Demon Gate Dazun, Heavenly Witch War Paint, Demon Master Xu Fu......

Until the end, Qi Mingyou concealed the truth that Li Yuefan and the demon master died together. In order to save everyone, Yue Fan overdrew all his strength, and was seriously injured and difficult to recover, so he temporarily stayed on that small island that had no quarrel with the world.

......

Listening to Qi Mingyou's narration silently, it is like the Arabian Nights recorded in the mythological notes, which makes people slow down for a long time.

"It's okay, it's okay!"

Old General Chen stretched his wrinkles and said with emotion: "I can't imagine that so many things have happened to the little brother Yue Fan on the island, he has experienced too much suffering, although he has lost his martial arts now, it is also good to be able to live a peaceful life." ”

"That's right!"

Ding Yi burst into tears: "As long as I know that Master is living a good life now, I will be relieved." ”

Long Jun bowed slightly, and then said with a solemn face: "Master has many enemies in Middle-earth, and it is safe to stay on the island. It's just that we can't go to visit him now, let alone reveal the slightest bit of news. ”

"Yes, today's events must not be leaked out at all. ”

Everyone spoke steadily and hurriedly agreed. In fact, Long Jun reminded that everyone knows the seriousness of the matter. After all, the people present were all core personnel of the Yasukuni Army and Fanmen, and they were Li Yuefan's friends.

Then, Qi Mingyou said: "Actually, Brother Yue Fan also misses everyone very much, so I returned to the Central Plains this time, in addition to avenging myself, I just want to fulfill several of his wishes for Brother Yue Fan." ”

After saying that, Qi Ming's right gaze froze, and he turned his hand and folded out a mysterious seal.

"Z-"

There was a slight quenching sound in the air, but the next scene made Long Jun, Ding Yi and others stunned!

Qi Ming's right sleeve trembled slightly, and he saw a deep black hole appear in the palm of his hand, as if connecting another space.

"That's... What's that?"

Long Jun, Ding Yi and the others looked incredible, even the most well-informed Yun Fang also felt at a loss.

Without waiting for everyone to ask, the same miniature object fell from the black hole and fell to the ground...... In the blink of an eye, it became a mahogany box more than four feet wide and more than two feet deep!

"This is something I brought out of the dungeon, and I put it anyway, so I brought some of it out. ”

Qi Ming raised his right hand and waved, the twelve wooden boxes opened, and the entire lobby was suddenly resplendent with gold!

......

――――――――――――

Chapter 39 Void Mustard Seeds

"Wow-"

Long Jun and Ding Yi rubbed their eyes vigorously, they couldn't believe what they were seeing!

There were twelve chests of gold, silver and jewels instead of stones! It was the first time for the two of them to see so many gold, silver and jewels, and the dazzling brilliance made their eyes ache!

Not only them, but others were also glazed over.

Xiaohuo looked at everyone very incomprehensibly, his eyes full of doubts. Isn't it just a push of a sparkling bead and you can't eat it, what's all the fuss about?

Qi Mingyou smiled silently, and he was born and Atu were expressionless, and they seemed to be used to seeing such a scene. Think about the countless treasures in the underground palace, what is this little bit of wealth?

Who would have too much money? Especially in today's troubled times.

The Yasukuni Army is not wealthy, and it can even be said that there is a serious shortage of materials. It can be seen from Long Jun and Ding Yi's arrears to Yun Fang's intelligence expenses that their current military spending is dwarfed. After all, after so many years of war, and without the supply of the imperial court, just relying on one acre and three points of land in Datong, it is not bad to be able to feed more than 100,000 soldiers and people here, let alone add new equipment. If it weren't for these years, Zhu Jingyue would have managed Fanmen well. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Yasukuni Army to hold up the edifice of the border pass that is about to collapse!

But now, all the problems have been solved by the arrival of Qi Mingyou, especially the twelve boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, which can be said to have solved the urgent needs of Zhang Fengyi and others.

With this money, they can do a lot of things, such as rushing troops, changing equipment, eating and cloning warmly, and even defending and attacking to win the world!

......

"This, this is all for us?"

Long Jun grabbed Ding Yi fiercely, and the latter screamed endlessly: "Long Jun, what are you kid doing with me?"

"Hey, hey!"

Long Junwei smiled: "It's nothing, I just want to see if I'm dreaming." ”

"Dreaming!?" Ding Yi said depressedly when he heard this: "Then why don't you pry yourself?"

"I'm not sick, why should I mess with myself?"

Long Jun smiled evilly, so angry that Ding Yi's mouth trembled!

Accustomed to the two of them playing treasures, Zhang Fengyi and the others turned a blind eye and directly fell on Qi Mingyou.

"Brother Ming'......"

Zhang Fengyi clasped his fists and saluted, looking very excited: "Thank you, thank you, little brother, not only for ourselves, but also for the tens of thousands of soldiers in Datong City and tens of millions of people in Daming." ”

"Compared to you, what Ming You has done is insignificant. ”

Qi Mingyou humbly supported the other party, and did not show complacent because of these wealth, but secretly sighed: "Brother Yue Fan, they are all your relatives and friends, I will definitely try my best to help them, don't worry!"

Long Jun and Ding Yi gave Qi Mingyou a strong bear hug, and the former patted each other's shoulders and said: "Brother Mingyou, your gift is too heavy, although we deserve it, but now we have to accept it, this kindness, I Long Jun will never forget!"

"Ah Jun is right, Brother Mingyou, please accept Ding Yi's worship!"

Ding Yi was solemn, and the rest of the people all saluted.

"Since it's your own people, then everyone is welcome, otherwise you will be embarrassed. ”

Qi Ming's right heart turned slightly, and he quietly held everyone up.

Feeling a vast invisible force, everyone's hearts were secretly awe-inspiring, none of them thought that this young man who looked slightly immature would have such ability!

Among them, Long Jun, Ding Yi and Zhu Jingyue felt the most deeply. They are all masters of the Heavenly Dao, and they have experienced a hundred battles, and they are extremely sensitive to the power of heaven and earth. If you want to mobilize the power of heaven and earth in the ten-zhang space, as long as you are a master of the Heavenly Dao, you can do it, but if you want to control the power so skillfully like Qi Mingyou, they ask themselves that it is difficult to control!

Obviously, Qi Mingyou's perception of the Heavenly Dao is much higher than that of Long Jun and the others!

"Brother Mingyou, this is the power ......of inheritance?

Ding Yi said three good things in a row, and a kind of excitement arose. Those who know him well know that this kid's aggressive mistake has been made again!

"Brother Mingyou, I see that you have a good skill, if there is an opportunity, how about we learn from each other?"

Faced with Ding Yi's warm invitation, Qi Mingyou agreed with a smile. He also wanted to know how much Yue Fan's two apprentices had learned.

......

After the excitement, everyone's mood gradually calmed down, just looking at the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, everyone's eyes were still a little hot!

"Sumeru mustard seeds!"

A sudden exclamation interrupted everyone, and when they heard the voice, they saw Yun Fang staring at Qi Ming's right hand with wide eyes.

"What is Sumeru mustard?"

Zhang Fengyi and the others were confused, but Long Jun faintly guessed some: "Brother Yun, do you mean that the right brother just performed a thaumaturgy called Sumeru mustard?"

"That's right! When I was sorting through a broken old book, I saw a few words...... The Sumeru mustard seed is a true ancient thaumaturgy, which can hide physical things in the void of mustard seeds, manifest out of thin air, and access them at will. This kind of thaumaturgy was very popular in ancient times, but it is rarely known in modern times, and the technique of hiding mustard used by most monks today can only change the size of the real thing, and cannot be hidden in the void, so it is not worth mentioning at all. ”

Yun Fang endured his excitement, walked up to Qi Mingyou and said, "Brother Mingyou, Yun Fang failed to complete the trust of Brother Li back then, and he is really ashamed...... You can have today's achievements, Brother Li must be very comforted!"

For the sake of Qi Mingyou's matter, Yun Fang has been haunted by it for the past ten years, although he doesn't say it in his mouth, but he has never let go in his heart! So from the moment he came in to the present, he didn't take the initiative to talk to the other party.

"Back then, the upstairs power was strong, Brother Yun was powerless, how could Ming You not know right and wrong? ”

Qi Mingyou still knows something about Yun Fang, he was kidnapped back then, and Yun Fang was entrusted by Brother Yue Fan to look around, which took a lot of effort, and this is also a kindness, and he can't help but pay it back.

At this time, Xiaohua suddenly exclaimed: "My mother, this Sumeru mustard seed is too powerful, if I know how to do this, I will be invincible in the world for stealing things in the future!"

"Invincible fart!"

Xiaodou retorted: "If you want me to say, bring fire thunder and hidden weapons with you in a pile, and throw anyone who is unhappy!"

When everyone heard this, there were black lines on their heads, Long Jun's eyes slipped, and he interjected: "Brother Mingyou...... Look, what kind of Sumeru mustard seeds are so easy to use, why don't you teach us how to do it? In this way, it will be very convenient to bring something with you in the future. Hey, hey!"

Looking at the other party's courteous appearance, Qi Mingyou's goosebumps fell to the ground, and he hurriedly responded: "Actually, Sumeru mustard seeds are just a small technique, and they are a change in comprehending the power of heaven and earth. ”

"Comprehend the power of heaven and earth?!"

Everyone was pleasantly surprised when they heard this, but after thinking about it, Zhang Fengyi and the others smiled bitterly.

The master of the Heavenly Dao is not a radish and a green, you can have it casually. Even if it is a force like the Yasukuni Army, only Long Jun, Ding Yi and Zhu Jingyue have stepped into the Heavenly Dao, how can others have this condition?

However, seeing the excited expressions of Long Jun and others, Zhang Fengyi and others showed a little envy and relief.

Although the strength of the Yasukuni Army is inferior to that of the imperial court and the Tatar clan, and the masters are inferior to the Heavenly Dao Alliance and the Murong clan of Dayan, they also have advantages that others cannot match...... Several sets of large and medium-sized battle arrays, a unique chain of fire and thunder, an invincible killing knife technique, two heavenly masters who are as powerful as the god of war, and a division of 50,000 tigers and wolves!

Now, with a large number of treasures and the help of immortal people like Qi Ming, the future can be described as bright.

Thinking of a bright future, the generals smiled in their hearts.

What army is pressing the border, what soldiers are coming to the city, there is nothing to fear!

A party is a joy for all!

......

Chapter 40: The Central Plains Rebellion

After the banquet, it was late at night, and the lights in the Baoguo Hall were not extinguished.

In front of the sand table, Long Jun stood with his hands in his hands, and behind him, Ding Yi walked back and forth, his steps were quite heavy.

"The Ming Dynasty is full of internal friction, decay, and the major forces are fighting endlessly, and now Chai Gui is even more for his own selfishness, and he dares to risk the disapproval of the world to lead the Tatars into the customs...... The people are worried!"

Long Jun let out a long sigh, and that worried and longing look made people unable to associate with Long Shuai, who was usually cynical.

At the beginning, Fanmen was originally established for some selfish desires, but ten years of battlefield fighting had already made Long Jun and Ding Yi's minds more mature. Whenever I watched the brothers around me fall one by one, an inexplicable belief took root in my heart. Gradually, they put aside their hateful thoughts and transformed them into spiritual power.

A nation needs sacrifice, it needs to grow, it needs to be strong, and it needs spirit! This has nothing to do with the country, the dynasty, or right or wrong.

And the soldiers at the border are inheriting this indomitable spirit.

"Ah Jun, the capital can't fall into the hands of barbarians, you have to think of a way!"

Thinking of the land being invaded by foreigners, Ding Yi felt indignant in his heart.

Long Jun smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Think of a way? What do you think? As the saying goes, it's easy to please God and it's hard to send God." Shanhaiguan is thousands of miles away, even if we have this heart, we can't do it!" After a pause, he said again: "It's a good trick to build the plank road and secretly cross the Chen Cang, Dolgon is really calculating...... The Tatar army has been besieging us without attacking, presumably to contain us, believing that as soon as the snow stops, they will attack the city in a big way, so that we have no time for other things. ”

Ding Yi said hatefully when he heard this: "The most hateful thing is that Zhu Kangjing's stupid guy actually sent soldiers and horses to join in the fun at this juncture, his head was a pig or was kicked by a donkey!"

"Zhu Kangjing is not a pig's head, if he is not smart, he can ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven. Long Jun sneered: "It's just that people's hearts are unpredictable, how can he count everything! This time, when the barbarians enter the customs, they will take the capital, and now it is Zhu Kangjing who should have a headache, not us." ”

Ding Yi was still unwilling to say: "Then what should we do now? We can't do nothing, right? After guarding the border for ten years, I am really unwilling to let those barbarians succeed." ”

"Now that the chaos in the coastal areas has appeared, it will not be long before the Central Plains will be even more chaotic. ”

After pondering for a moment, Long Jun smiled and said, "It's not that there is no way, it's just that it couldn't be done before...... But now it's different, with this wealth brought by Ming You, we can do a lot of things, such as building dozens of fire and thunder cannons, hehe!"

"What! You want to build dozens of fire and thunder cannons!"

Ding Yi was taken aback, and Long Jun continued: "That's right, dozens of fire and thunder cannons...... Coupled with the battle formation left by the master, the border pass can be safeguarded, and we just have our hands free to do something else, hehe!"

......

"Wow!"

There was a sound of breaking the air outside the hall, and at this time, two figures fell into the courtyard.

"Brother Fu, sister-in-law, you are even more beautiful now!"

Long Jun and Ding Yi hurriedly stepped forward, and the people who came were Fu Shuai and his wife.

"Okay, okay, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you two still look like you're flamboyant. ”

Yan Yueshi's smile was bright, adding a bit of grace.

Fu Shuai also smiled heartily, and when friends meet, they are always in a happier mood.

The word flamboyant tongue can be regarded as a compliment for a cheeky person like Long Jun. He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and said, "What's the matter, you've been chasing for so long, have you found anything?"

Talking about what happened just now, Fu Shuai said: "That person has a black mask and can't see his appearance, but he is very powerful, and he is by no means comparable to ordinary monks! Yue Shi and I chased to a mountain forest, and suddenly lost his breath, and searched for a long time but found nothing." If such a person were an enemy, it would be quite terrifying. ”

"Lao Fu is right!" Yan Yueshi nodded solemnly and said: "This person has a good concealment technique, if he makes a sneak attack regardless of his identity, I am afraid that there will be endless disasters!"

"Black Mask?It's him!!"

Ding Yi was stunned at first, then held his chin and said: "According to Lao Min, today's battle at the East Gate was the one who came to help. Judging by the man's many times to help us, he should not be an enemy. ”

Long Jun said suspiciously: "That person has helped us repeatedly, if it is not a friend, then it must have another plan." ”

"I don't even want to show my appearance, what else do you want?" Ding Yi picked at his head and said: "I think that person should have no malicious intent, maybe it's just because he doesn't want to see the border pass fall into the hands of foreigners, so it's just a pure help." Hehe! If only there were more such patriots in the world. ”

"Patriots, you think it's beautiful. ”

Long Jun pursed his lips, but he didn't think so in his heart. It's too weird to think about carefully.

Fu Shuai and his wife glanced at each other, not knowing who the mysterious person they were talking about, so they only said: "Although we didn't catch up with that person, when we came back, we found that the soldiers and horses of the imperial court were approaching Datong, presumably to fish in troubled waters." ”

Yan Yueshidai's eyebrows locked slightly: "Just because those people also want to join in the fun, it's really overwhelming." ”

Ding Yi snorted coldly: "Sister-in-law is right, this time I have to teach the court a lesson!"

Seeing the indignation on the faces of the two, Fu Shuai smiled and said, "By the way, where is Qi Mingyou, the apprentice of Senior Kou? He didn't tell you the news of Yue Fan's current situation?"

"Master, he's fine now, it's just that it's inconvenient to show up right now. ”

At that moment, Long Jun told everything that happened in the living room.

......

――――――――――――

The border passes were on fire, and the Central Plains was in chaos.

In Guangdong, the contradictions between the imperial court and the gangs finally turned into conflicts.

As a result, a vigorous power dispute was staged at the crossing, and the battle became more and more intense!

Compared with the fighting on the front line, the atmosphere in Nanxiong City was a little quiet.

The streets are heavily guarded, and even during the daytime, few people in the city go out of their homes, and a thick haze envelops the whole city!

......

At noon, the sun was shining.

In the corner of the front yard of Yanwutang, Xiao Wu and Niuniu stood against the wall, and around them, a group of half-grown teenagers blocked the place.

"Two ugly monsters, aren't you usually very proud? You dare to show off your might in front of the master, now see how I clean you up!"

Led in the middle was a burly tall young man named Guan Shufang. Compared with other children, he has great strength, and he has learned boxing and kicking for a few years, so he is the best among the new batch of teenagers, and the rest of the children naturally look to him.

However, Xiao Wu and Niu Niu are exceptions.

It's been more than half a month since he came to the Tianxiong Gang, and the second child is usually very low-key, except for the martial arts arena, he goes to the backyard to do some chores with the beard, and never gets into trouble. At first, life was relatively peaceful, and no one came to trouble them, but since the last time they went out shopping, their lives have been in turmoil.

At first, it was just the appreciation of the hall master, and then the reward of the helper, and then a series of superior treatments made the children around them blush, among which the Guan Shufang was the most, and it was only then that there was this scene.

Hiding behind her brother, Niuniu's thin body trembled a little, she was a little girl from a poor countryside, and she had never had an argument with anyone, let alone a battle like this now.

As an elder brother, Xiao Wu seemed very calm. After all, even the murderous robbers have been faced, how can they be afraid of these half-grown children. Of course, the confidence in his heart comes more from his strength. After learning skills from the bearded man for so many years, it is naturally not comparable to the opponent's fists and rusty legs.

......
