Chapter 41: The Thorn Khan (I)

After making the decision to go out of the mountain, Ding Yu was actually a little helpless, obviously in the great dragon vein of Kunlun Mountain, he could obtain the aura of heaven and earth endlessly; after rebuilding the internal force, Nanping Jun's resentment was also swept away, and the hidden danger of demons naturally did not exist; I thought that as long as he continued to accumulate spiritual energy, he would naturally be able to break through the barrier between heaven and man and break through to the ninth layer realm. But what he didn't expect was that his skill progress hit a bottleneck again.

This time, the obstacle stems from Mingjiao. It was not that the Ming Sect sent people to hunt him down in the Kunlun Mountains, but that he owed the Ming Sect the cause and effect, which had become a knot in his heart at this time. Regardless of the rights and wrongs of the killing in the tunnel ten years ago, only in terms of grievances, he once promised to save his life several times for the Ming Sect to severely damage the three great enemies and the Spirit Rhino Bead given by Fang Qinghua, but in the end, he almost wiped out all the high-ranking members of the Ming Sect. This matter has been hanging on his heart all the time, and it has become a heavy pressure.

It is precisely for this reason that after his skill enters the eighth layer of Dacheng, he will no longer have any need to benefit, even if he takes the peach and royal jelly, there is no change, he can clearly sense that if he can't untie this knot, even if he takes more spiritual things, his skill will not be able to reach the eighth layer of perfection, let alone break through the realm.

After discovering this crux, Ding Yu did not hesitate. With his current martial arts strength, coupled with the use of aura, the master guards in the Mongolian military camp will no longer be able to stop him from taking off the head of the Great Khan. In the original history, after the death of the Great Khan Möngke, Kublai Khan, who was originally attacking the Southern Song Dynasty, immediately withdrew his troops and rushed back to Mongolia to compete with Ali Buge for the throne. By the time Kublai Khan quelled the internal troubles and attacked the Great Song Dynasty again, it was nine years later.

If Ding Yu can assassinate Meng Ge in advance, he can make this battle for the throne break out early. On the one hand, Fang Qinghua's wish was fulfilled, and on the other hand, once Kublai Khan withdrew from the army, Ding Yu was able to go to Guo Jing and Huang Rong to understand the previous cause and effect without being bound by promises.

However, the assassination of the Mongol Great Khan was far from being as easy as Ding Yu imagined.

It took him more than a month to rush back from Kunlun Mountain to the vicinity of the military town outside Xiangyang City. But no matter how he lurked and explored, he could only find Kublai Khan's handsome tent, but he couldn't find where Meng Ge was. In the end, he set his eyes on a Mongolian officer who could speak Chinese, and took advantage of his business trip to a remote place to rob him, and tortured him with the Soul Transference Dafa, only to find out that Meng Ge had only inherited the throne for two years at this time, and he was not in any of the Mongol and Song battlefields at all, but stayed in Hara and Lin, the capital of Mongolia, four or five thousand miles away from Xiangyang!

Ding Yu was stunned for a moment. Fortunately, there was no endless road in the sky, and he learned that in the northern city of Dengzhou, there was a caravan that carried money and goods for the Mongolian soldiers, and returned to Mongolia once every six months, and the next trip would depart three days later, so he secretly embellished this caravan.

A few days later, the caravan was confronted by a horse thief. Ding Yu appeared and repelled the horse thief. The leader of the caravan was very grateful, and gave him a great deal of gold and silver. Ding Yu did not accept it, saying that he was an ascetic monk who traveled all over the world, and did not ask for money, but only needed a caravan to guide him on the way to Hala and Lin.

The leader of the caravan had seen Ding Yu's martial arts, and he had the intention of soliciting, so he listened to him at this time. Naturally, I was overjoyed, saying that we would pass through Hala and Lin on this trip, if the master did not dislike it, it would be better to go all the way, and we would never dare to wait for the master.

That's it. Ding Yu was able to turn from darkness to light and join the caravan. He had already learned some Mongolian language in Yiwu City, and he had lost a lot of waste over the years, so he could revisit it with his peers, and he could also inquire about Mongolian customs and so on.

After another two months, the caravan finally arrived in the capital of Mongolia, Hala Horin. This city is located at the southern foot of Hangai Mountain, on the west bank of the Orkhon River, surrounded by lush forests and abundant water and grass.

From the outside, it is completely impossible to imagine that this is the capital of the world's largest empire: it is no more than four miles long, no more than one or two miles wide, and it is surrounded by a circle of low earthen walls, not to mention Chang'an, Zhongdu, Lin'an, and even Xiangyang City. However, once you enter the city, you will be struck by the abundance of the city: gold and silver utensils everywhere, and at least ten different countries can be found in any yurt. The streets are full of yellow, white and black people, but only Mongolians can walk with their heads held high.

Ding Yu said goodbye to the caravan and found a temple on his own. After that, I spent an afternoon walking around the entire capital, not only finding the location of the palace, but also finding several seemingly convenient and quick escape routes.

However, things then encountered obstacles, and the power of the unknown plane arranged a large number of masters in this palace. Any palace guard on patrol is at least a first-class master, and there are more than a dozen guard captains who seem to have faintly reached the level of the five uniques. For three nights, Ding Yu tried to infiltrate the palace, but was blocked by the impermeable defense system. With this level of guard strength, even if he can successfully infiltrate the dormitory, as long as he makes a little noise when he strikes, he can't expect to be able to leave this place alive.

In desperation, Ding Yu had no choice but to give up his plan to assassinate in the palace. If you want to assassinate Meng Ge, you can only figure out his living habits, know when he will leave the palace, and how long he will stay in the palace each time, and then make a feasible plan. And this is undoubtedly a long-term job, so he found a job in the temple where the order was placed, and every day he kept sweeping the dusty floor up and down the stupa, no one knew, his mind had been paying attention to the palace gate south of the stupa, half a mile away.

The spring is long grateful, the summer rain is resting, and the cool autumn breeze is coming. The leaves of the forest at the foot of Hangai Mountain began to turn yellow and fall, and the beasts in the forest also hung a thick layer of autumn fat. This day is refreshing, and it is a good day for autumn hunting.

The palace gate of Hala and Lin was opened, and a large group of people carried blindfolded Hai Dongqing, rode horses that were one in a hundred, followed by brave hounds, and marched along the street to the west gate. When the Mongols along the way saw this, they all bowed down and saluted, and the foreigners either hid in their houses early or knelt down on the side of the road, waiting until the men and horses were far away.

Out of the city gate, the group let the horses gallop, and soon came to the royal hunting garden in the northwest. The man at the head wears a golden crown and a gold brocade robe, and the white horse under his crotch seems to be carved from a single piece of white marble, without a trace of variegation. He reined in the white horse and said: "Today's tiger hunting, there are those who hunt the tiger first, a reward of ten catties of red gold, a great horse, and a strong bow with rhino horns!

Behind him, all the horsemen cheered in unison, and rode their horses towards the forest, and the golden-crowned man, Möngke Khan, was not far behind, and galloped into the forest surrounded by dozens of horsemen. (To be continued.) )
