The petals of the leaf stayed firmly on Han Jiangliu's chest, like a tattoo embroidery, which was very beautiful.

When Han Jiangliu first started, he felt a little itchy, but when the lotus petals were completely fitted, he didn't feel anything. He asked, "Mother, what is this?"

Old Mother Li Shan said, "This lotus petal on your chest can play a thousand miles of sound transmission effect, if you want to talk to the immortals in the distance, you only need to hold the lotus petal position with your right hand and speak at the same time." Of course, the premise is that the mana of the obedient person on the other side must be strong enough, and it will be ineffective for you to communicate with ordinary people in the world. ”

After that, the old mother of Li Shan placed the remaining two lotus petals on the butterfly bones on both sides of Han Jiangliu's back.

Han Jiangliu also had two bursts of itching sensation, and after it was completely fitted, Li Shan's mother said: "These two lotus petals, one petal can dispel water, one petal can dispel fire, and the two petals cannot be applied at the same time." Come, now I will pass on to you the trick of water-repelling and fire-repelling. So he leaned down and passed the mantra to Han Jiangliu in a low voice.

There are thousands of kinds of spells in Old Mother Lishan, and the spells obtained by different disciples are different. This trick of dispelling water and repelling fire, Wuyun Immortal Gu did not learn the blessings, so Lishan's mother did not teach her.

After the mantra was taught, Mrs. Li Shan asked, "Have you ever written it down?"

"I've written it all, Master. ”

Li Shan's mother said: "That's good, now I let Wuyun send you back, you can go and save Princess Linglong, remember, Princess Linglong is on the Flame Island in the South China Sea, the correct direction of walking, you have to find it yourself, as a teacher can only help you get here." ”

"Yes, Master. ”

So, Wuyun Immortal Gu said, "Let's go, junior brother, you can take you back to the capital." "Wuyun Immortal Gu unfolded the method of traveling clouds, and took Han Jiangliu back to the Youlanxuan Teahouse in Tokyo City.

Wuyun Immortal Gu said: "I'll send you here, let's say goodbye to our senior sisters and brothers." If you have any difficulties, you can use Qianli to transmit the sound and ask your senior sister for help. "Say goodbye.

Han Jiangliu returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion alone, saw his father, and explained the situation one by one.

When Han Zhongyan heard this, he pondered for a long time and said, "My son, it is difficult to go to Flame Island here, do you have confidence?"

Han Jiangliu said: "I have confidence. ”

Han Zhongyan asked, "How long will it take to come back?" ”

Han Jiangliu said: "As little as one year, many years as three years. ”

"Do you need to mobilize troops to escort you? ”

Han Jiangliu knew that although his father was the prime minister, he did not have the right to transfer troops, and he didn't know how much trouble it would take to mobilize the army, and besides, he just wanted to go alone, so he said: "No, father, I just need to go alone, and I don't need help from others." ”

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news. ”

That night, Han Jiangliu stayed at home, and he really didn't sleep well all night, only thinking about how to successfully complete this journey, complete the task safely, and bring the princess back safely.

Early the next morning, Han Jiangliu and his father Han Zhongyan went to the court together and explained the matter to Song Huizong, saying that Princess Linglong was suppressed by bad people on Flame Island in the South China Sea, and the heavenly gods signaled that they needed to go and save themselves. But he didn't say that the person who detained Princess Linglong was the emperor's most trusted Taoist priest Lin Lingsu.

Because of this, it is useless to say.

Above the court, Lin Lingsu, Cai Jing, and Cai You were also there.

Song Huizong asked Cai Jing: "Taishi, you see, is it feasible to send Han Jiangliu to save the princess?"

Cai Jing replied: "It is feasible, Han Gongzi is young and old, acts prudently, has the style of a father, and is a reliable candidate." ”

Song Huizong asked Lin Lingsu: "Dao Chief, what do you think of this?"

Lin Lingsu nodded slightly, looked at Han Jiangliu, pretended to have never seen it, and said, "I think this son, young and knowledgeable, can achieve great things, it is possible to bring the princess back safely." ”

Song Huizong asked: "Then Dao Chief, do you need to send 800,000 forbidden troops to accompany him all the way?" Lin Lingsu shook his head and said, "No need, this is the mission of the immortal world, and it is not something that the mortal army can manage." Sending multiple armies can easily become an obstacle to saving the princess. ”

"Back to Your Majesty," Taishi Cai Jing said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that it is still necessary for Han Gongzi to bring more troops, so that the chances of saving the princess can be greater." Cai Jing usually never refutes Lin Lingsu's words, why did he go against him this time.

It turned out that Cai Jing was convinced of Lin Lingsu's spells, and knew that Lin Lingsu had already laid seventy-seven and forty-nine obstacles between the capital and the Flame Island in the South China Sea, and no matter how many troops Han Jiangliu brought there, it would be useless, so why not let him bring a little more people over?

The more you bring, the more casualties and losses, and there is also the possibility of annihilation, if that is the case, even if Han Jiangliu brings the princess back, it will be more guilty than meritorious, and it will be difficult to make a difference, even if it is his father Han Zhongyan, he will also be disgraced and have no face in front of the emperor, then his power will undoubtedly increase. This is a rare opportunity to seize power.

Song Huizong nodded and said, "This also makes sense. "The emperor is worried about the safety of his daughter Linglong, and when he learned that his daughter was detained on Flame Island, although he didn't know how far Flame Island was from here and what kind of place it was, hearing this name was enough to make people afraid. Then he said to Han Jiangliu: "Let's bring some people and horses, take care of each other, and it will be easy to get things done." ”

Han Jiangliu wanted to say, "I really don't need to, I can do it alone." Han Zhongyan was in front of his son, nodded slightly, and shook his head again, meaning that Han Jiangliu could not refuse the emperor's arrangement, but what did it mean to shake his head again.

Han Jiangliu immediately understood and said, "Receive Your Majesty's decree, but, Your Majesty, the people and horses you bring are not expensive, if you give me a hundred strong forbidden troops, it will be enough." ”

Song Huizong said: "Okay, among the forbidden army, you can choose two hundred powerful characters." Let's go down and choose someone. ”

Han Jiangliu received the order, and Han Zhongyan was overjoyed, thinking: This little son of his is smart after all, and he nodded and shook his head, and he understood it so thoroughly. The emperor wants to send troops, you can't refuse, if you refuse, it is a protest, and it will also cause the emperor's distrust. But if you completely agree, send hundreds of thousands, two hundred thousand troops, in case of any mistakes, but it is the trap of Cai Jing's old thief.

At that moment, Han Jiangliu was led by the head of the palace and arrived at the forbidden military academy.

In the forbidden military academy, 800,000 forbidden troops are training in an orderly manner, and the shouting and killing sound under the command stage is very powerful.

The head of the hall led Han Jiangliu to the command platform and introduced Han Jiangliu: "Han Gongzi, this is Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army in Tokyo. ”

When Han Jiangliu saw this person, he was dressed as a military attaché, with a silver helmet and silver armor, a leopard's head and eyes, a swallow collar and a tiger's whiskers, an eight-foot long and short figure, and a thirty-four or five years old, he was really heroic, and the world was very vibrant, and he accounted for eight points. At the moment, he waved his hand and said, "Sect Leader Lin, hello, I have come to select two hundred strong forbidden troops and two hundred war horses by the emperor's holy decree, and go with me to the Flame Island in the South China Sea to rescue the trapped Princess Linglong." ”

Lin Chong said: "Han Gongzi, please choose, choose at will, if you can trust Lin Chong, then Lin Chong can choose it on your behalf." ”

Han Jiangliu saw that Lin Chong was bold and had a good look, and he usually heard his father say that there was a leader in the forbidden army, named Lin Chong, who was very good at martial arts, and people could do it. said at the moment: "If you can't believe it, just ask Sect Leader Lin to choose it for me." ”

"Good. Lin Chong agreed, stepped off the command platform, and carefully selected 200 extremely strong men from the three elite battalions of the 1st, 2nd, and 6th battalions and brought them to the command platform. He came up to the stage and said to Han Jiangliu, "Master Han, what do you think of these forbidden troops?"

Han Jiangliu raised his eyes and looked down, but saw that the two hundred forbidden soldiers were all strong and strong, all of them were more than 5 feet 5 inches tall and under 5 feet 9 inches, all of them were over 18 years old and under 24 years old, and they had the same muscles and flesh on their bodies, and they were powerful. Divided into eight rows to stand on the ground, it is really as horizontal as a knife cut, and as neat as an axe and chisel.

Han Jiangliu was very satisfied and said, "These are indeed heroes. ”

Lin Chong said, "Choosing the best of the best can contribute to the country, and it is also their creation." ”

Han Jiangliu said: "So, thank you Sect Leader Lin." ”

"You're welcome. Lin Chong returned the salute.

Elect the forbidden army, Han Jiangliu returned to the palace, at the moment, Song Huizong Qin sealed Han Jiangliu as the Pingnan soldiers and horses to recruit envoys, Zhenwei general, was ordered to sweep the South China Sea Flame Island, save Princess Linglong.

Resign in front of the palace, come down to the palace, return home, say goodbye to a few brothers, say goodbye to the old mother, and inevitably set up a banquet and resign, and tell you a thousand instructions, which do not need to be detailed.

Early the next morning, Han Jiangliu gathered the 200 elite forbidden troops in the school military field, took 300 war horses, and set off in full gear.

The emperor sent Yang Jian and Cai You to bid farewell to Han Jiangliu in his place. The three of them drank a few glasses of wine together and parted in the south of the city.

200 people say that it is not too much, and when they go out of the city, there are many onlookers, and everyone has never seen such a strong and majestic team.

Leave the capital and head south.

On the road, Han Jiangliu gave these soldiers three chapters: first, to obey orders, second, to love the people, and third, to unite with their companions.

The soldiers of the Forbidden Army listened awe-inspiringly.

On the road, endless wind and food camping, Xiaoxing overnight, the road is not a day, this day, came to Xinzhou, Jiangxi.

In the territory of Shinshu, there is a famous mountain called Ryuda Mountain.

On Longhu Mountain, the front is the Sanqing Palace, where the three Qing people live, and behind the mountain, the demon mist is thick, shrouded in a demon fairy, this demon fairy is called the Prince of Jinzhang, is a local snake spirit, cultivated for a long time, specifically pits the lives of the people, and has bitten to death no less than 100 people. A few days ago, Prince Jinzhang received an order from Lin Lingsu to pay special attention to rob Han Jiangliu here.
