Money in the heavens

Tingchao Pavilion, one of the three most dangerous places in the world, has an arsenal of half of the world's martial arts secrets. It is called six floors externally, but in fact there are nine floors inside. There are six servants guarding the pavilion.

On the first floor, there are 30,000 volumes of introductory martial arts from all over the world, on the second floor, there are 4,000 unique volumes of yin and yang studies, and 49 rare weapons and weapons in the world. On the third floor, there are 20,000 volumes of profound treasures and secrets. The fourth floor houses rare stones and antiques, while the fifth and sixth floors contain martial arts secrets.

After discussing the plan for Qingzhou, several people prepared to wait for Xu Fengnian to return from Wudang Mountain before heading to Qingzhou.

Shang Yi and others can read books in Tingchao Pavilion. As long as they are above the sixth floor, they can browse from the first to the sixth floor.

Arriving at the foot of the majestic Tingchao Pavilion, I looked up at the top of the pavilion with complicated eyes. It was said to be a pavilion, but in fact it was a serious attic with spires and layers of cornices, making it look like one in all directions.

Xu Fengqing smiled and said:

"It is claimed to be a sixth floor, but in fact there are nine floors inside. The numbers start from one pole to nine, but I am worried that some people in the capital will be full and make sarcastic remarks, which is why it is like this now.

As you can see, there is a cloister outside the lower four floors, and the fifth and sixth floor can be used as an observation hall. There are no books or items on the top floor, it is empty. There are five people in the pavilion who are responsible for arranging the martial arts secrets from bottom to top according to the difficulty of practice. They should be the so-called pavilion guards in the world. They are all old guys I have known since I was a child. They are elusive.

There was only one scribe, and I learned calligraphy and painting from him. He was a consumptive man who looked more like a ghost than a ghost, but he was still addicted to alcohol. I had to bring him wine every time I went upstairs.

If the Wu Nu who guards the pavilion says he is a master, I believe him. If my half-master were so, I would jump off the ninth floor. "

Shang Yi smiled slightly and said:

"Li Yishan, the best counselor in the world, although he does not know martial arts, his eyesight is first-class. When he and Xie Guanying were together in the martial arts review, it was shocking to the world!"

Xu Fengnian raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect that his master would have such an experience.

Entering Tingchao Pavilion, Shang Yi was very interested in starting from the first floor. Although it was an introduction to martial arts, it can also be seen from the founder's initial exploration of martial arts.

Not only Shang Yi, but also Qi Zhengyan, who practiced the "Demon Prison Mysterious Embryo Sutra", also started from the introductory martial arts. The bronze bell in the body records and deduces various martial arts. It requires not only advanced martial arts, but also a lot of martial arts wisdom. .

Ruan Yushu read books on music skills and piano scores, while Jiang Zhiwei read books on swordsmanship. They also followed the path of reproduction, so they also started from the first level.

Meng Qi, Zhang Yuanshan, Fu Zhenzhen and Nangong Pushe did not go straight to the fifth floor. They all started with the introductory exercises, knowing the importance of the basics. Meng Qi looked at knife skills, sword skills and Buddhist scriptures, and Zhang Yuanshan looked at Dao Zang sword skills. , Fu Zhenzhen looked at medical skills, while Nangong Pushe looked at sword skills and made inferences by analogy, and followed his own path.

Of course, in addition to improving their martial arts foundation, Meng Qi and the others also want to use Ting Chaoting's martial arts to exchange for good deeds in the six-path reincarnation space in the future, quickly accumulate foundation, and exchange for life-saving means and training resources!

Shang Yi and others were reading in Tingchao Pavilion, but Xu Fengnian was not idle. In order to confuse the court, he went to the brothel to see the oiran again. This time, although there was no Nangong Pushe escort, there were also blue birds present, who wanted to assassinate him. Yu Youwei, a survivor of Western Chu, and her cat named Wu Meiniang were brought back.

The news even spread in Liangzhou City that "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has forced himself on Yu Oiran".

Obviously, he wants to carry out the dude character to the end. Of course, Shang Yi has reason to suspect that this is not only the character design, but also that Xu Feng is really lustful!

If it weren't for the extraordinary business building, and if it involved the princess's resurrection from the dead, Xu Fengnian might not have been interested in Ruan Yushu and Jiang Zhiwei. In the original work, even Princess Jing'an was brought back to Beiliang, and there was even a story of "supporting the wall and leaving" Deeds.

On the other hand, Xu Xiao also entered the Tingchao Pavilion. When Dazhuguo reached the eighth floor, bamboo slips and ancient books were scattered everywhere. There was a long red sandalwood table with a dim yellow candle lamp on it, and a green gourd filled with wine on the corner. , a red rope tied to the mouth of the gourd and a person's skinny arm.

The man was sitting on the ground, with disheveled hair, a face as pale as snow, and a touch of light red between his eyebrows. If you look closely, it looks like an upright red phoenix eye. He is wearing a linen shirt, barefoot and cross-legged, and his writing is flying.

Xu Xiao from Dazhu Kingdom picked up more than a dozen bamboo slips and put them neatly. Only then did he have a place to sit down. He apologized and said, "I was in a hurry. I forgot to bring wine. I will ask Feng Nian to make up for it later."

Xu Xiao was obviously used to the weirdo's silence and thought to himself:

"Without a true first-grade master-level master sitting in the palace, I can't sleep well.

I hope the mall will not disappoint me.

It's strange to say that Shang Yi and the others said they were from overseas, so it was fine if they couldn't find out the details. Why, even after half a year of inquiries about Nangong Pushe, the spies couldn't find out the details about this person. It seemed that he could only be from the North. It's someone from Han's side.

Yishan, what level of strength do you think she currently has? "

The man who was as withered as a ghost spoke, like the sound of gold and stone, "From the first rank. I have practiced in the pavilion for ten years, but there are no living beings here, and no one above."

Dazhuguo clicked his tongue and said: "Shanglou found a treasure, what a blessing!"

The sick man with tuberculosis picked up the gourd and poured it down. There was no more wine and it suddenly became boring. So he stopped writing and his eyes were dull.

Then he said:

"According to what Feng Nian said, she is Xie Guanying's daughter. She might have just wanted to make a deal with Feng Nian before, enter Tingchao Pavilion to practice, and seek revenge on Xie Guanying in the future!

However, on the way, he heard about Shang Yi resurrecting the princess, so he entered the business building.

However, Shang Yi's realm is definitely a first-level master, with the lowest Zhixuan realm. How could he not notice that a first-level warrior is following him? He may be deliberately letting her hear it, and he obviously wants to win over Nangong Pu and shoot into the Shang Building! "

Xu Xiao nodded when he heard this. Although he was a little dissatisfied, he knew very well that if Wu Su could be resurrected, it would be worth losing Nangong Pushe, so he didn't say much.

Then he stood up, looked up at the "Picture of Earthly Immortals" on the south wall, put his hands behind his hands and frowned:

"Yishan, I will be crowned in the Year of the Phoenix soon, so as a crowning ceremony, you can give me a 'brother'."

The man thought for a while and said, "Xu Fengnian, whose name is Tianlang."

Xu Xiao from Dazhu Kingdom suddenly laughed wildly, quite proudly.

······

During the heavy snow season, Shang Yi and others also read books in Tingchao Pavilion for a month. It must be said that the martial arts secrets in Tingchao Pavilion greatly improved their martial arts knowledge and gained a lot of insights.

This was also Xu Xiao's show of goodwill, allowing Shang Yi and others to go to Tingchao Pavilion and read books for a month before preparing to go to Wudang Mountain to supplement Xu Fengnian's martial arts foundation.

This time, because Xu Fengnian already had the ambition to go to martial arts, and Shang Yi and others were from Shanglou after all, and there were so many masters in Beiliang Palace, Jian Jiuhuang couldn't leave Xu Fengnian behind to challenge Wang Xianzhi in Emperor Wu City.

He also helped Xu Fengnian fish out the old man from the bottom of the lake and guard him in Wutong Garden.

Shang Yi and others are very interested in Wudang Mountain and Zhenwu inheritance in this world. After all, Zhang Yuanshan is a direct disciple of Zhenwu Sect, Meng Qi has the task of Zhenwu Tomb, and Zhenwu also has a legendary reincarnation of Lu Zu Hong Xixiang, if he is not the best in the world, he will not go down to Wudang Mountain, which makes people curious.

Wudang Mountain has two pools, four pools, nine wells, twenty-four deep streams, thirty-six rocks, and eighty-one peaks, a five-mile nunnery and a ten-mile palace with exquisite red walls and green tiles. Centered on the Taizhen Palace on Yuzhu Peak, there are eight The eleven peaks surround this peak and this palace and tilt their heads. shape, forming the famous Eighty-one Peaks toward the top. Over the millennia, countless seekers of immortality have retreated to Wudang, where they sit on the Forgotten Cliff or hide in the immortal coffin, listen to jade and gold, and the celestial music of Sanskrit, and watch the foggy clouds surging over the green mountains and beautiful water. Leaving behind countless legends.

Wudang was a Taoist holy land in the previous dynasty, which stabilized the Longhu Mountain. After the establishment of the Liyang Dynasty, the Dragon and Tiger were promoted and suppressed Wudang, which made Longhu Mountain the ancestral home of Taoism.

Wudang has been silent for hundreds of years, but no one dares to underestimate the thousand-year heritage of this mountain. Although the current headmaster Wang Zhonglou does not occupy a position among the top ten masters, it is said that an immortal guide broke through the entire turbulent mountain. Canglangjiang, whether he spreads false rumors or exaggerates, after all, he is an old Taoist immortal with high morals and respect. Especially when he practiced Dahuang Tingguan, the most obscure and time-consuming Taoist temple, it gave the whole Wudang Mountain a long-lasting and silent atmosphere.

Two hundred Northern Liang cavalry were mighty.

A burly old warrior dressed in black robes ran across the ground with a long knife, causing dust to fly.

Landslides and landslides.

The group of people went straight to the "Xuanwu Dangxing" archway at the gate of Wudang Mountain.

The first rider actually rode straight up and passed through the archway before reining in the reins.

In the century-old martial arts world, the only one who dared to despise the martial arts sect was Xu Rentu, who made the older generation of martial arts people talk about him with contempt.

Tiger father and dog son?

His Royal Highness, Crown Prince Xu Fengnian, who was riding on a powerful Northern Liang army horse, laughed at himself, looked at the group of Taoist priests attracted by this magnificent formation, and shouted gloomily:

"Give you half an hour to get out of here the man riding the green ox!"

This group of Wudang Mountain Taoist priests is in a dilemma. They don't know that there is a great uncle on the mountain who is as tall as Yuzhu Peak and likes to ride a green bull upside down. However, they are just ordinary wine-sacrifice Taoist priests from the Yuqing Palace at the foot of the mountain, not to mention that they can't do it. Even if my uncle is easy to talk to, it would take half an hour to get to Taizhen Palace at the fastest, and it would take an hour to go back and forth. The coming is fierce, can you wait?

Later, Meng Qi looked at Xu Fengnian suspiciously. He didn't go to Wudang Mountain to ask for help. He was probably not trying to attract hatred.

Zhang Yuanshan was also a little dissatisfied deep down in his heart. Although he was not a disciple of Wudang Mountain, the Zhenwu Sect and Wudang Mountain both respected Emperor Zhenwu. Xu Fengnian's behavior was rather contemptuous of Zhenwu.

Shang Yi smiled slightly and said:

"It doesn't matter, Xu Fengnian has a special status. He is not just the prince of Northern Liang, but he is also qualified to show off his power on Wudang Mountain!"

But no, Xu Fengnian is the reincarnation of Emperor Zhenwu, why can't he show off his power in his own territory!

······

There are two Lotus Peaks in front and behind Yuzhu Peak. The Big Lotus Peak has more than ten caves and paradises for retreat. The Little Lotus Peak with a cliff on one side belongs to one person by default.

At the age of five, this man was taken up the mountain by the previous generation of Wudang leader and accepted as a disciple in seclusion. At a young age, he and this generation of leader Wang Zhonglou became brothers.

At the Nine Palaces and Thirteen Temples in Wudang Mountain, when most of the thousands of Huangguan Taoist priests see this young man, they must respectfully call him "Master-uncle", or even smaller ones, "Tai-Guan Master-uncle".

Fortunately, this young ancestor never went down the mountain. He only saw the Xuanwu Dangxing Archway when he entered the mountain. He never came close to it again, and never took a look from a distance. For more than 20 years, he spent most of his time either in the Yuzhu Peak Taiqing Palace or in the Taiqing Palace. He rode a green bull with his crown upside down on the Lotus and Lotus Peaks. By chance, he met his true face. When he went back, he told people that his great uncle had a very good temper, profound knowledge and exquisite elegance.

There is a lot of noise here at the mountain gate, but it is very quiet next to the Turtle and Camel Monument on the steep cliff of Xiaolianhua Peak.

A young Taoist priest with an elegant appearance was lying on the back of a stone turtle basking in the sun. He waved, and a green cow grazing in the distance came forward. There were several ancient Taoist books hanging on the horns. He took off one and was about to flip through it. After pinching his fingers for a while, he jumped off the turtle's back, found a dead branch, and drew densely packed celestial stems and earthly branches on the ground. His face changed slightly, he kept talking to himself, and finally sighed heavily.

Carefully sorting out the collar of the sleeves of the Taoist robe, he turned over an ox, rode an ox upside down, hung a book on its horns, and descended the Little Lotus Peak, half chanting and half singing, "Straight like a string, dead on the roadside. Curved like a hook, turned back to a prince. Who drags it?" When we end up on the way, who will leave the bones in the hall..."

After leaving Little Lotus Peak, I released the green cattle and carefully removed one of the Taoist classics whose cover was "Lingyuan Dao Song". I read it with relish while walking and went straight to the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Occasionally a Taoist priest would stop and call him Uncle Master or Uncle Master on the road. He would smile and say hello, and he was quite approachable.

Everyone just felt that this young senior was really diligent and worthy of being the great-uncle who had annotated countless ancient seal scripts in the Yuqing Palace. No wonder the master praised him as "all the martial arts and Taoists in the world should shoulder his responsibility."

Little did they know that this great uncle, who had an excellent reputation, was reading an erotic novel, the most despised by Taoists, with his eyes shining brightly. It just had the cover of "Lingyuan Dao Song" on it.

The Taoist priest turned over and over to read one page, because he couldn't bear to part with it. The only book on the mountain was this supreme classic, which he had borrowed from the ill-intentioned Crown Prince. Near the foot of the mountain, he turned over the page and read it dozens of times before putting it away without finishing. With an awe-inspiring look on his face he said:

"Even if I get a black nose and a swollen face from your beating, I will never return this book!"

Shang Yi, who saw the Taoist priest's words and actions through his celestial eye, chuckled softly:

"This Taoist priest is interesting. He is indeed the reincarnation of Lu Zu, the legendary man with endless love affairs around him!"

Meng Qi heard this and asked curiously:

"The Taoist priest riding the green bull that Prince Xu just mentioned is the reincarnation of Lu Zu in rumors?"

Ruan Yushu, Nangong Pushe and others on the side, and even Xu Fengnian in front, all straightened up their ears.

Shang Yi smiled and said:

"Yes, Lu Zu was waiting for the red robe, but he passed through the Heavenly Gate without entering, and was reincarnated as Qi Xuanzhen of Wudang a hundred years ago. Unfortunately, he could not wait for the red robe, so he passed through the Heavenly Gate again without entering, and was reincarnated as Hong Xixiang today!

This time he waited for the red-robed man, but he hadn't awakened yet. If he rashly went down the mountain, he would definitely fall into other people's plans and harm others and himself. This is why the headmaster of Wudang made Hong Xixiang swear that he would not become the best in the world. Reason to go down!

After all, there are so many rivers and lakes. If nothing else, Longhu Mountain is not willing to see Wudang Mountain rise again, and will definitely find a way to deal with Hong Xixiang, the reincarnation of Lu Zu.

What's more, in the past, Lu Zu passed through the Heavenly Gate but failed to enter, so the guardian of the Heavenly Gate was punished and demoted to the human world. Although this person was just a gatekeeper in the heavenly world, he was almost invincible in the human world. How could he not look for Lu Zu? The trouble with reincarnation. "

Xu Fengnian looked back at Shang Yi and said:

"Is this the reason why the flood elephant doesn't come down from the mountain!?"

At this time, Xu Fengnian had already vaguely guessed who the so-called Hongyi was. Wasn't it his sister Xu Zhihu who was married to Jiangnan?

No wonder my sister went to Wudang Mountain and fell in love with the Taoist priest at first sight. It turned out that she was destined to be married in a previous life!

Shang Yi smiled and said:

"Feng Nian, my merchant house has only been in the Central Plains for a few years, and I can already guess who the man in red is. Do you think Li Yangqin Tianjian and the land immortal from Longhu Mountain can't be counted?

Hong Xixiang will die if he doesn't come down the mountain. If he goes down the mountain, Hong Yi will die!

Even if Hong Xixiang awakens and regains all of Lu Zu's strength, they will kill Hong Yi and force Hong Xiang's soldiers to send Hong Yi to ascend. This will not only eliminate the reincarnation of Lu Zu, but also make the prosperity of Wudang Mountain hopeless. , it is a great help to eliminate Beiliang, killing two birds with one stone! "

Xu Fengnian's heart sank when he heard this. He thought of the white-clothed case back then. Could it be that the Liyang Dynasty was planning a red-clothed case in Jiangnan! ?

The more he thought about it, the murderous intention in Xu Fengnian's heart became stronger, and the anger in his heart naturally became stronger!

Xu Fengnian, who was sitting high on the horse, saw the sneaky familiar figure hiding in the corner of Yuqing Palace and sticking out his head. The man shrank back when he saw His Highness the Crown Prince. Xu Fengnian raised his whip and shouted angrily:

"Bull rider! If you hide from me again, I will lead my men to destroy the Taiqing Palace, and throw you and the Turtle and Camel Monument off Little Lotus Peak!

The young Taoist priest who had the most high hopes in Wudang Mountain for a hundred years appeared timidly in front of everyone. He stopped a long way away from the Beiliang Iron Cavalry, bowed his head, and said with a spring breeze on his face: "I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince in Xiaodao. "(End of chapter)
