Tibet

The Baqiao area is the largest garrison area in Chang'an. Hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed to defend Chang'an. The military camps are also dotted with dozens of large and small military camps. In addition to the four major military camps such as Xuanwu and Zhuque, there are also many small military camps. If you are not familiar with the distribution of military camps, you may not necessarily be able to find where Li Ye's Hezhong Camp is stationed. .

The official name of Li Ye's Hezhong Camp is the Seventh Battalion of the Bashui West Camp. As the name suggests, it is the seventh military camp located west of Bashui. There is a large camp pole inserted in front of the camp gate with the three characters "Hezhong Army" written on it.

In the early morning, Li Ye was listening to Liu Wutong's report. Late last night, a group of Taoist priests appeared in the Taipingfang house.

Liu Wutong was extremely skilled in martial arts, so Li Ye asked him to lurk near Taipingfang House and monitor the house for him.

Li Ye asked solemnly: "Are you sure that the old Taoist priest opened the iron door of the stone house?"

"The humble official saw clearly. He opened the iron door and went in."

Li Ye was almost certain that this old Taoist priest was the one who opened the secret chamber of Qiaoling to release the imperial edict. This old Taoist priest had a deep relationship with Feilong and should be another force deployed by Feilong.

"You said there was another official coming behind, who was it?"

"I don't know him because of his humble position, but he looks like he has a high official position. He even knelt down and kowtowed to the old Taoist priest."

Li Ye frowned. Could it be that this old Taoist priest was from the clan and had a high status?

Doubts are doubts, and the top priority is that Li Ye needs to find out the identity of this old Taoist priest. The recent situation is strange. The emperor's sudden attack on him is most likely related to this old Taoist priest.

At this time, the soldier said outside the tent: "To inform the governor, a little Taoist priest has sent a note."

"Give me the note!"

The soldier entered the tent and handed over the note. Li Ye opened the note and his heart skipped a beat. He couldn't believe his eyes. There were four words on the note, "The end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty."

Li Ye squeezed the note tightly and asked urgently: "Where is the little Taoist priest?"

"The little Taoist priest has left. He left a message, asking the governor to go to Xuandu Temple in the afternoon. He hopes that the governor will go alone."

"I understand, you all should stand down!"

All the soldiers retreated, and Li Ye said to Liu Wu: "You should go back too! Protect my father these days and be inseparable."

Liu Wu said: "Master is going to Luoyang this afternoon!"

"Then you all follow and protect him along the way. Don't worry about my mother. She is very skilled in martial arts and can protect herself."

Liu Wutong hurried away.

Li Ye was restlessly pacing back and forth in the tent. He was really shocked. Fei Long was not dead. How did he do it?

If there are only two words on the note, the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it can be said that it is the note left by Feilong before, and the two words "the beginning of the Ming Dynasty" are added, then it can only be Feilong. Before he died, he told him himself that after the demise of the Yuan Dynasty, It's the Ming Dynasty. Only if he is immortal can this note appear. Unless there is another time traveler.

Li Ye forced himself to calm down and pondered for a moment. Xuandu thought that he still had to go.

He changed into a warrior uniform and tied a waist pouch on his back. Inside the waist pouch were fifty steel nails. This was a hidden weapon that Li Ye only replaced this year. Each steel nail weighed two taels and was three inches long. The front end is extremely sharp, and it can hit every target within thirty steps.

The killing effect of steel nails is the same as that of flying knives, but they are lighter and smaller than flying knives. You can carry fifty nails at a time and weigh only six kilograms. They can be easily placed in your waist bag, while daggers can only carry twenty-four at a time. , not convenient yet.

Li Ye brought another horizontal knife. This was a horizontal knife specially made by Anxi craftsmen. It weighed ten to twenty kilograms. A total of a hundred were made. It was made of high-quality Wutz steel and was made with the steel clamping method. It was similar to the Mo Dao. Similarly, named Anxi Sword, basically every Anxi Army general and Hezhong Army general has one in hand.

This sword of Li Ye is No. 1 and weighs twenty kilograms. The reason why Li Ye carries this sword is that it is very suitable for actual combat. It is extremely sharp and does not curl up after a long battle. It is not gorgeous at all, but it is a rare one. Good knife.

Li Ye took two of his men into the city. He asked his two men to wait for him at Daye Martial Arts School in Yonghefang. He took an ox cart alone to Xuandu Temple in Chongyefang.

Li Ye knew that Xuandu Temple and Feilong had a deep connection. Although Mingsong died, Minghui, the current master of Xuandu Temple, was also Mingsong's junior brother, as well as Mingxuan, the abbot of Laojun Hall, and Mingyan, the abbot of Sanqing Hall. These three powerful Taoist priests were all appointed by Mingsong and were related to Feilong.

Li Ye got off the bullock cart and came to the Xuandu Temple Square. At this time, a young Taoist priest came up to him and saluted: "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, please follow me, Jiedu Envoy!"

Li Ye followed the little Taoist priest to the overlapping Taoist temples. The Taoist temples are like palaces, with countless small paths and gates, twists and turns, and any tourist will get lost if he walks in.

If you don't want to get lost, there is the simplest way. Walk on the roof and find the direction to get out easily.

When Li Ye came to a small courtyard, the little Taoist priest waved his hand, "Jiedushi, please come in!"

Li Ye walked into the small courtyard and saw an old Taoist priest sitting cross-legged under the corridor of the house. Li Ye recognized it at a glance and it was Feilong.

Li Ye still remembered that when he first met Fei Long, he looked haggard and dying, as if his end was approaching, but now he has a rosy complexion and a childlike face.

Li Ye sighed in his heart. Everything he pretended to have deceived the emperor and himself.

Feilong smiled slightly and said, "Brother Li, we meet again."

Li Ye knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists in salute, "In this humble position, please see the Supreme Emperor!"

"Sit down! You know who I am and we are equals."

Li Ye silently sat down on the wooden board opposite Feilong. Feilong said slowly: "I know you are shocked. You obviously touched my breath and died, how come you are alive again?"

Li Ye smiled and said: "I was shocked at first, but soon I understood. In the case of Prince Consort Zhang Bian, the murderer also took a poison and died, but he lived again at noon the next day. , Presumably the same is true for seniors.”

"It's absolutely true. The same goes for me. If this were not the case and the ashes were not scattered in Wuting River, how could it be hidden from Li Longji's eyes?"

"Could it be that the emperor wants to kill senior?"

Feilong nodded, "Just a few months before I became immortal, the emperor suddenly asked me when I would become immortal. I knew he was going to attack me. I told him the specific time of my emergence, and he arranged it. After I lost my breath in Qiugali, he sent three imperial doctors to test me and diagnosed that I was indeed dead. He even had to see me cremated on the pyre with his own eyes before he could feel relieved.

I hadn't woken up at that time, but there was a trap under the firewood pile. After the fire, my body was replaced, and the one that was burned to ashes was another eunuch. "

"Where is Liefeng? Is she alive too?"

Feilong sighed, "I also hope she is still alive, but it's a pity that she really became an immortal."

Li Ye pondered for a moment and said: "When I came back this time, I felt that the emperor wanted to attack me because he discovered the existence of my senior?"

Feilong shook his head, "You said the opposite. It was because he wanted to kill you that I reappeared."

Li Ye frowned, "Why did he want to kill me?"

Feilong glanced at Li Ye and said calmly: "Don't you realize that you are the second Wang Zhongsi?"

Li Ye stood up suddenly and took a few steps back. It was like a flash of lightning flashed through his mind. He finally understood.

Feilong cultivated himself and used himself to control the military power. No wonder he was promoted to Jiedushi in just five years.

It turns out that he is the second Wang Zhongsi.

"Sit down! Sit down!"

Feilong waved his hand to him, "Don't be so excited. I thought you understood it yourself."

Li Ye sat down slowly and sighed: "I didn't think about it at all!"

He pondered for a moment and then asked: "What's going on with the imperial edict?"

"That is the agreement between the Emperor and I. He wants me to die. Of course I can only die under certain conditions. My condition is that you improve step by step. There are four imperial edicts in total, and the Qiaoling Secret Chamber is the fourth."

"But what if the emperor breaks the contract?"

Li Ye stared at Fei Long with sharp eyes, "If he doesn't fulfill your terms and conditions, you are already dead, what else can he do?"

Feilong said calmly: "He doesn't dare! I am his father, and I must fulfill what he promised. Otherwise, how will he face me after death? You don't understand his fear of me. He always thinks that I have cultivated the Tao."
