Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

Jiang Hongfei held the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard and looked at the big man who was still breathing heavily: "May I ask the hero's name?"

Although the true strength of this big man is far inferior to that of the One-horned Leopard with the Brocade Pattern, whether you say he made a sneak attack, you say he was lucky, or you say he took advantage of it, in the final analysis, he almost killed the One-horned Leopard with the Brocade Pattern People are not weak in strength.

Therefore, Jiang Hongfei could not help but be tempted to recruit.

The big man said: "The villain's surname is Tang and his name is Meng. Tang Tianzhu, the commander of Longmaying Village, is the villain who takes the test first."

After hearing Tang Meng reveal his family background, Jiang Hongfei suddenly realized!

In the original work, Tang Meng loved hunting and was highly skilled in martial arts. He once killed the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard with the help of Fan Chenglong and a group of hunters. He also fought to a draw with Wu Song, who had exhausted a lot of physical strength, and his strength was not weak.

Jiang Hongfei said: "There is a leader in our village named Fan Chenglong. He often said that your father Tang Tianzhu was a brave general who made many achievements in the side court. He was later appointed as the commander of Longma Camp and died of illness while in office. His father and your father were old acquaintances. , your father loved him very much, and he often said to people: "Your father is a hero. "In the old days, when he drove mules and horses, he was looked down upon by your father."

After a pause, Jiang Hongfei continued: "He once said that when you were ten years old, there was an apricot tree in your garden, which was as thick as a bowl of rice, and he taught you to uproot it. Your naturally enhanced attribute spiritual roots would be stronger than other Qi refining ones. scholar."

Hearing Jiang Hongfei mention Fan Chenglong and talk about some past events about him, Tang Meng hurriedly said: "It turns out that Brother Fan from Lanshan County works in Guizhai!"

With Fan Chenglong as the introduction, Jiang Hongfei and Tang Meng had a pleasant chat.

After Tang Meng's body had almost recovered, Tang Meng stood up and bowed deeply to Jiang Hongfei: "May I ask the official what your name is?"

When Jiang Hongfei looked at it, he saw Tang Meng, a strong man wearing a Qiuluo shirt, a pair of water silk shorts, a pair of multi-eared hemp shoes, with his chest exposed. He looked good and looked like a good general.

So Jiang Hongfei reported his name: "My surname is Jiang and my first name is Yan."

It doesn't matter if it's in the southeast, southwest, or northwest. In the northeast, especially in Shandong, Jiang Hongfei's reputation is absolutely known to everyone, and no one can match it.

Tang Meng naturally knew Jiang Hongfei's name very well.

But now, here in Shandong, if you want to make a career as an official, you have to either leave your hometown and join the Zhao and Song Dynasty, which is beleaguered from all directions, or you can only join the Liangshan Mountains, where the sun is at its peak. There is no third way.

Tang Tianzhu turned out to be a Zhizhai, but he was just a military attaché the size of a sesame seed and a mung bean, not to mention that Tang Tianzhu had been dead for many years.

Tang Meng's family situation can be imagined.

Let's put it this way, if Tang Meng lived well, he wouldn't be able to live in the mountains.

In fact, just looking at Tang Meng's clothes, he looked like a hunter, so it was not difficult to tell that he was not doing well as expected.

Moreover, Tang Meng's mother had always hoped that Tang Meng would have a good family background. Not long ago, Tang Meng's mother wanted Tang Meng to go to Yuanji Village to join Fan Chenglong to study for a good family background, but Tang Meng was a bit shy and refused to go.

There is a hidden hint in the book: The reason why Tang Meng came to hunt the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard was, firstly, to gain fame, and secondly, because he wanted to give the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard as a gift to Fan Chenglong.

Now that Fan Chenglong's Yuanju Village has been abandoned in Liangshan, Tang Meng was lucky enough to meet Jiang Hongfei himself. He was not too clever. With a rare moment of cleverness, he immediately bowed to Jiang Hongfei and bowed: "I have heard about the greatness of heaven for a long time." With such a majestic name, even if you want to kill me, you can't meet me! I didn't expect to see the Great Sage of Heaven today. I'm here. I beg the Great Sage of Heaven and all the ladies to go with you. While we're hanging around, I'll prepare some light wine and coarse food. Jie Feng, don’t treat it as a courtesy!”

Jiang Hongfei looked at the sky and saw that it was almost dawn, not suitable for catching the ginseng immortal who liked to go out at night, so he agreed to go to his house with Tang Meng to rest for a while.

Seeing that Tang Meng had brought several strange men and women, Tang Meng's mother, Tang Gongren, called Tang Meng aside and asked who Jiang Hongfei and others were.

Tang Meng's mother and son whispered for a while, and then Tang Gong and Tang Meng's wife were very attentive and prepared a large table of sumptuous dishes for Jiang Hongfei and others, and also got a lot of monkey wine for Jiang Hongfei and others.

After Jiang Hongfei and the others had finished eating and drinking, Tang Meng showed Jiang Hongfei his martial arts skills.

Tang Gongren said on the side: "My son, Niao Nian, rides a horse. He likes to fight on foot the most. He learns how to live on foot. To be honest, the great sage said that he goes up and down slopes, chasing wild animals, and he comes and goes like flying. .”

Tang Gongren pointed to the weapon in Tang Meng's hand and said: "His weapon is a Yanyue Bronze Liu, which is most powerful in foot combat and cannot be attacked by spears or simple knives."

Tang Gongren was explaining here, while Tang Meng turned the Yanyue Bronze Fan with both hands, and danced once in the courtyard, crossing his shoulders and covering the roof, and performed the dance skillfully.

The two women just had to tell Jiang Hongfei directly, asking Jiang Hongfei to lead Tang Meng.

After Jiang Hongfei saw Tang Meng's martial arts skills, he said to Tang Gongren: "If the old lady is willing, teach Tang Meng and follow me to do justice for heaven."

How could Tang Gong be unwilling? Tang Meng immediately worshiped Jiang Hongfei.

It was only then that Jiang Hongfei said that he was here to capture the ginseng immortal.

Tang Meng said: "There is a cave in the mountain here, called the Summer Cave of King Qin. It is the deepest. The ginseng fairy often appears around this cave. When it gets dark, the villain will take Xie to catch the ginseng fairy."

After dinner, under the guidance of Tang Meng, Jiang Hongfei and his party arrived outside King Qin's summer cave.

There is a record in the heavenly book: ginseng spirits love light, their favorite is wood incense, and what they fear most is Wulingzhi.

So, Jiang Hongfei prepared five or seven buckets of five spirit resins and dozens of kilograms of wood incense chips outside the King of Qin's summer cave. Before arriving, Tang Meng's wife made a hydrangea lantern with red paper and asked Liang Hongyu to tie it with a long rope.

At the entrance of the cave, Jiang Hongfei first used Wulingzhi to block the way.

Jiang Hongfei also asked from the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard that the place where the ginseng grows is on the left side of the middle peak, so Jiang Hongfei poured out the wood incense chips and sprinkled them down to the entrance of the Qin King's summer cave.

After doing all this, Jiang Hongfei placed the hydrangea lantern at the entrance of the hole in front, and asked Liang Hongyu to hide inside and hold the rope. When the ginseng fairy came to put out the light, he would pull the lantern into the hole and lead the ginseng fairy into the cave.

At that time, Chen Liqing, Yan Zhengu and Tang Meng only had to quickly cut off the return path of Wulingzhi, and then go into the cave to catch it. The ginseng immortal would be unable to fly.

That night, the sky was full of stars and the moon was as bright as day.

Soon, Jiang Hongfei lit the red lamp, placed it at the entrance of the cave, and tied the rope. Liang Hongyu, who was holding the end of the rope, walked into the cave. Everyone else walked down the hillside and hid in the woods, leaving only Liang Hongyu. In the cave.

Jiang Hongfei watched intently in the forest, waiting for the ginseng fairy to appear.

The stars were turning, and it was not until the third watch that I vaguely saw a child dancing out from behind the peak. He was naked and looked to be about four or five years old.

Chen Liqing said happily: "Come here!"

Jiang Hongfei hissed: "Don't make any noise, hide quickly."

The ginseng immortal came out of the ground, bowed to the stars, paid homage in all directions, and danced for a while. Suddenly I smelled the fragrance of wood. I searched everywhere and found the woody flakes. I danced all the way to find them.

Before he knew it, Shenxian arrived at the entrance of King Qin's summer cave. He was very happy when he saw the red hydrangea lantern. He stood still and looked at it from a distance. He slowly stepped forward and took it with his hands. He saw the red lantern rolling into the cave. .

Poor grass and tree elves, they were just getting along, and they didn't expect people to be deceitful, so they followed the red light and entered the cave.

Jiang Hongfei saw clearly and hurriedly called Chen Liqing, Yan Zhengu, and Tang Meng to take action.

Upon hearing this, Chen Liqing and the others immediately picked up the bag of five spirit fats, took three steps at a time to reach the entrance of the cave, and spread the five spirit fats all over the ground, leaving no gaps.

The ginseng immortal noticed someone and hurriedly escaped. When he saw Wu Lingzhi, he couldn't step over and hurriedly turned back into the cave.

Upon seeing this, Liang Hongyu rushed forward to catch the ginseng fairy with the help of the flying rope she materialized.

Unexpectedly, the ginseng immortal is extremely flexible and extremely fast.

Plus it was pitch black in the cave.

Even though Liang Hongyu was very fast with her flying rope magical power, she still couldn't catch the ginseng fairy.

After a while, Jiang Hongfei, Chen Liqing and others lit torches and rushed into King Qin's summer cave.

When Shenxian saw him, he cried and ran around.

In desperation, he could only bump into all directions.

The crowd rushed around and forced Shenxian into a narrow place.

Jiang Hongfei dodged and came to Shenxian's side. He pinched Shenxian's arm with two fingers, then grabbed him and held him in his arms.

The Ginseng Immortal howled loudly and begged for mercy in a sweet voice: "I beg the Immortal to spare Xiao Ginseng's life!"

Jiang Hongfei couldn't bear to see the ginseng immortal begging for mercy, but this ginseng immortal was related to Liu Huiniang's body, and in turn related to the success or failure of Shuibo Liangshan, and also to Jiang Hongfei's cultivation. Besides, Jiang Hongfei had no intention of taking the life of the ginseng immortal. So Jiang Hongfei took out a sealing talisman to seal the ginseng immortal, and then took out two immortal binding ropes to tie it up.

At this time, Chen Liqing suddenly said: "This ginseng immortal seems to be dead."

Jiang Hongfei looked at the ginseng fairy and saw that it made no sound and did not move.

Jiang Hongfei smiled slightly and said to Shenxian: "Don't try to be so clever with me. I know you want to cheat your death and escape. This is absolutely impossible with me."

After hearing this, Shenxian could only slowly open his eyes, and then looked at Jiang Hongfei aggrievedly.

At this moment, an old Taoist drove a gray cloud to Jiang Hongfei and others: "Fellow Taoist, please stay."

Jiang Hongfei looked at the old Taoist, and saw that he had white hair and a childlike face, and had an air of immortality. He was a bit like Zhenren Luo. In short, he looked like an outsider.

Tang Meng hurriedly said to Jiang Hongfei: "This man's surname is Chen, his name is Nianyi, and his Taoist name is Tongyizi. He was originally a famous doctor in Wuyue, and he understood the principles of the ebb and flow of yin and yang. At the age of seventy, he abandoned the world, went to the mountains to practice Taoism, and obtained the Earth Immortal Certificate. Guo, he is one hundred and forty years old this year. Now living in seclusion in Tiantai Mountain, he is an unparalleled expert."

Jiang Hongfei knew Chen Nianyi and knew that he was Xu Huai's brother and military advisor Xu He's master.

However, Jiang Hongfei will not be hostile to Chen Nianyi because of this. After all, this person should be able to compete with Zhenren Luo and should not be enemies.

So Jiang Hongfei returned the favor: "Why did Fellow Daoist Chen block my way?"

Chen Nianyi said: "Everything born between heaven and earth is called destiny. Heaven is good for life, and all flying and submerged animals and plants are nurtured. Those who can cultivate their spiritual roots and do not disturb the world are especially loved. God loves and protects Tao seeds, such as A loving mother protects her innocent child, how can she allow human demons to harm her! The ginseng has been in the ground for three hundred years. It has been imbued with the essence of Yaoguang from heaven and felt the beauty of the mountains and rivers. It has been in human form for six hundred years. It has nine orifices on the outside and viscera on the inside. For a hundred years, you can go out of the ground, worship the stars, and play in the mountains and rivers. At this time, there will be mountain spirits and earth guards to protect you, and no mortals will be allowed to bully you. If you violate the taboo, even if you are caught, you will also commit the wrath of the gods and you will die. One thousand two hundred Years ago, he was able to speak human words, recite chants from gods, break away from a tree, travel around ten continents and three islands, and complete the great road. He was no different from the human beings who cultivated to become Yangshen. How could fellow Taoists mess with him? That one-horned leopard was probably not him. Although he was a guard, he also taught fellow Taoists to take them away. Fellow Taoists are also people with great cultivation, don’t they know that they have already shouldered great karma?”

Jiang Hongfei said proudly: "I have jumped out of the Three Realms, I am not in the Five Elements, and I am not contaminated by any cause and effect. Why should I be afraid?"

After Chen Nianyi heard this, he counted with his fingers and found that he couldn't calculate Jiang Hongfei's fate. Only then did he know that Jiang Hongfei's words were true.

Jiang Hongfei added: "The world is about to be in chaos. Only I can turn the tide, save the people from the fire and water, and save the people from hanging upside down. But this road is not easy to walk. I must use him to strengthen myself. For him, this may be It’s not fair, but there are tens of millions of people on the other side, how should I choose?”

Chen Nianyi was silent for a long time, and then said leisurely: "The cardinal of creation is not something that anyone can pry into. His reckless and rough workmanship can be seen everywhere. It is really the great devil of Xuanqi and the disaster of the people. Fellow Taoist, neither do anything." It is also a big deal for him to do it for selfish reasons, but this ginseng immortal is too innocent."

Jiang Hongfei rolled his eyes and said, "I caught what he did to improve his strength. If my fellow Taoist has a good idea, I will spare his life."

Chen Nianyi was a little hesitant after hearing this!

Chen Nianyi has an ancient prescription in his hand, which is the Hunyuan Dan made from the blood of thousand-year-old ginseng and more than twenty other elixirs, which can quickly improve his cultivation level.

But Chen Nianyi felt that Jiang Hongfei was both good and evil. He was really not sure whether he should give this prescription to Jiang Hongfei.

Seeing Chen Nianyi's hesitation, how could Jiang Hongfei not know that Chen Nianyi really had a way to help him improve his strength.

Jiang Hongfei immediately took the retreat as the path forward: "If my Taoist friend is in trouble, I will have no problem improving my cultivation by drinking the blood of Ginseng Immortal in the future."

Having said this, Jiang Hongfei looked at the Ginseng Immortal in his arms: "But then he will suffer."

How could Chen Nianyi not know that Jiang Hongfei was threatening him?

But looking at the pitiful appearance of the Ginseng Immortal, Chen Nianyi sighed: "Oh! Come on, maybe it's God's will!"

After saying that, Chen Nianyi threw a piece of animal skin to Jiang Hongfei, then turned and walked away. At the same time, his voice sounded: "I hope my Taoist friend will keep his word!"

Jiang Hongfei took the elixir recipe and looked at it, then said to the ginseng immortal in his arms: "You have been with me for a hundred years. During these hundred years, I will take your blood to make elixirs from time to time. But you don't have to worry, I will provide you with heaven and earth." The treasure will help you recover and even help you improve your cultivation. If you have a good chance, you may not be able to ascend within a hundred years."

After hearing this, Shenxian couldn't help but hesitate!

Seeing this, Jiang Hongfei flipped his hand, and a pot of five-color soil appeared in his hand.

When the ginseng immortal saw it, he was overjoyed and struggled to move towards the five-color soil.

Jiang Hongfei didn't stop him, but directly placed the ginseng immortal on the five-color soil.

As soon as the body of the ginseng immortal shook, it returned to its original form and plunged into the five-color soil.

Jiang Hongfei said: "I still have a lot of treasures such as five-color soil. If you follow me, you will definitely be much better than slowly practicing hard on your own."

Jiang Hongfei is not bragging. He scratches the ground wherever he goes. He does have a lot of heavenly and earthly treasures. It will definitely be no problem to support a ginseng fairy.

Shenxian hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Jiang Hongfei.

Jiang Hongfei was also a bachelor, so he immediately removed the seal of the Immortal Ginseng and the rope that bound the Immortal.

Shenxian hesitated for a while, but did not run away.

Seeing that the ginseng fairy kept his word, Jiang Hongfei turned his hand again, took out a jade pot, and poured a few drops of water on the ginseng fairy.

I don’t know what kind of treasure the water is, but it actually shines with three kinds of divine light: red, yellow, and blue.

After drinking these few drops of Sanguang Divine Water, Ginseng Immortal let out a big burp, and then let out a moan of extreme satisfaction...
