Chapter 124: The Ten Years of Night Rain in Jianghu

The Hazar Sea, that is, the Caspian Sea in later generations, is swaying with warm winds, stirring people's hair, and the waves rolling in The Hague again and again to make a sound.

The sea breeze and the waves are like a lover stroking and whispering, plus the sparkling waves and the clear sky, looking at this kind of scenery is really open-minded and very happy.

Lin Qingxuan, wearing a violet robe, stood on a boulder by the sea, quietly looking at the eastern sky opposite the coast.

In the blink of an eye, it has been ten years since Lin Qingxuan followed Genghis Khan's westward expedition. The Mongolian army completely conquered the Grand Duchy of Kyiv this year.

Since the eastern part of the Black Sea is under the control of the Mongolian army, and because there are many prisoners who are proficient in Latin and Slavic, and many of them are monks and nobles, the Julian calendar has also become the calendar used by Mongolia from Europe and Central Asia.

So Lin Qingxuan knew that this year he knew the era he lived in. The more accurate statement is 1234 AD in the Julian calendar, and corresponding to the Song Dynasty, it should be the 27th year of Jiading.

In recent years, because the Mongolian army has been advancing all the way to the west and advancing very fast, it has penetrated into Eastern Europe, so Lin Qingxuan followed Genghis Khan and could not get any news from East Asia.

Now that it is cold winter, Genghis Khan has a sudden attack of rheumatism and asthma. Although Lin Qingxuan saved his life, he can only stay in Sukhumi, the former Georgian port city on the east coast of the Black Sea. The castle sheltered from the wind and cold, so the fighting stopped.

Missing Quanzhen Sect and Li Mochou, Zhao Xiyan and others, Lin Qingxuan bid farewell to Genghis Khan temporarily and rushed to Tabriz, a big city on the west bank of the Caspian Sea, where he waited for the first batch of dispatched from Mount Zhongnan and Mount Wudang. Missionary.

Due to the sudden emergence of Lin Qingxuan and the Quanzhen religion, Tibetan Buddhism, which had gradually entered the attention of the Mongolian leadership after Genghis Khan conquered the Western Xia Dynasty, has lost its market. After many years of life, one was incomparably strong, and the rest of the princes and nobles were also addicted to the Taoist technique of life, which made Quanzhenism quickly and overwhelmingly defeated Shamanism among Mongolian nobles, and achieved the achievement of 100% fanaticism.

Many third-generation disciples of the Quanzhen Sect who have studied Taoist medicine have also been sent by Ma Yu and Li Mochou from Chongyang Palace and Zixiao Palace to North Asia, Central Asia, West Asia and other places to preach and establish Taoist temples, serving as the guardians of one side. Mongolian aristocrats treat diseases and alchemy, and teach the art of prolonging life.

As Mongolia moved westward, opened up the Caspian Sea, and even occupied most of West Asia and Eastern Europe, those Tianfang and Manichaeism, Zoroastrianism, Orthodox, Catholicism, Hinduism, etc. have become second-class in the field of the Great Mongolian Empire religion.

Mongolian nobles and warriors, as well as Semu people and Hu people who converted to Taoism, all need Taoist temples and Quanzhen High Taoism to guide their cultivation, and worship gods such as Sanqing and Liuyu.

Therefore, when they had not completely conquered Eastern Europe three years ago, Lin Qingxuan and Genghis Khan sent messengers back to the Central Plains and asked to send some disciples who were skilled in forensic medicine to preach.

Last month, there was news that Quanzhen masters had arrived at Samarkand, the former royal city of Khwarizmo, led by Qiu Chuji, Wang Chuyi, Hao Datong, and more than 100 true disciples .

After Lin Qingxuan heard the news, he prepared elixir and spent his infuriating energy, and finally stabilized Genghis Khan's condition, so he rushed to Tabriz to wait for the upcoming Quanzhen Dao.

After admiring the scenery of the Hazaer Sea for half an hour, Lin Qingxuan watched the surging sea waves, and suddenly felt something. With a wave of his right hand, a water dragon with the thickness of a bowl suddenly appeared on the sea surface three feet away and fell to him. In his hand, it turned into a huge water polo.

Although Lin Qingxuan has never practiced the magic technique of capturing dragons and controlling cranes by using his true energy to extract objects from the air, his martial arts cultivation level was the best in the world ten years ago, and now his skills have reached the realm of divine knowledge. It's out of smoke.

The water polo was constantly changing in Lin Qingxuan's hands, and as time passed, it gradually condensed into the shape of a big sword, and then his mind moved, his true qi turned into the ultimate yin, and the water flow big sword suddenly burst out. The white fog and cold air emerge, and when the cold air dissipates, it is an ice-made gate knife with transparent ice crystals.

Lin Qingxuan slashed the Daguan knife to his feet, and with a crisp sound, half of the head of the Daguan knife was inserted into the big stone under his feet like cutting tofu.

Lin Qingxuan has been cultivating continuously for ten years, and although his internal strength has improved greatly, he has finally reached the fifth level of this black water technique, but he sighed and said in a low voice dissatisfied: "The internal strength is still not pure enough, otherwise this The entire knife head can be inserted into the stone, and if you want to cultivate to that point, it will take more than three years of hard work to overcome it.”

Da Da horses hooves from far to near, a round-faced Mongolian juvenile cavalry stepped into the horse and jumped off the horse swiftly, and said loudly in blunt Chinese: "True Monarch and National Teacher, the real people of Quanzhen Sect have arrived."

Lin Qingxuan's robe disappeared as soon as he moved, leaving the young man in amazement as he watched a yellow afterimage fade away, and exclaimed in his mouth: "The national teacher is really a fairy, running like a gust of wind, bigger than a sweaty and bloody horse. be quick……"

When Lin Qingxuan returned to Tabriz City, he saw a caravan of camels walking slowly on the street. Qiu Chuji, Wang Chuyi and Hao Datong were sitting on the leading three white camels. Behind them were hundreds of people of all ages. Quanzhen disciples between the ages of 30 and [-].

"Senior Qiu, Senior Brother Wang, Senior Brother Hao!"

The third son heard Lin Qingxuan's call, and saw Lin Qingxuan's figure appearing out of thin air in front of his eyes, but he saw Junior Brother Lin smiling.

The third son jumped off the hunchback, held Lin Qingxuan's hand, and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Lin, it's been ten years since I saw you, and you don't seem to have changed. It seems that you are really going to become an immortal."

However, Lin Qingxuan saw that Qiu Chuji's beard and hair had turned white, while Wang Chuyi and Hao Datong's black hair and beard had turned gray, but the three of them had ruddy faces, gleaming eyes, and the sound of footsteps while walking was undetectable, which showed that they were healthy and strong. far better than it used to be.

Among the disciples who led the team, there were three leaders, one was Lu Zhitang, the other was Chen Lingyun, and the other was Gong Xuge, the great disciple of Lin Qingxuan. Gong Xuge's master was a Taoist Zhici. Excellent.

All the disciples also jumped down and bowed. After standing up, Lv Zhitang went up to talk, and Chen Lingyun took out a letter from his bosom and said, "Master, this is a handwritten letter from the teacher, so the disciple will hand it over to him. you old man."

Lin Qingxuan was very happy when he saw that Chen Lingyun and Gong Xuge both had beards, and he could see that the internal strength of the sect had a solid foundation in his breath. He took the letter and put it into his sleeve and asked, "How is your master?

Chen Lingyun bowed and said, "Master, everything is fine. I heard from her old man last spring that the eight meridians and meridians have been fully connected, and there are few rivals in this world. Apart from practicing, my master went to the Qingniu Palace to stay for a while. Everything was fine, but The smile is much less, although she doesn't say anything to our disciples, but I guess she always thinks of you, Master Shi."

Lin Qingxuan thought of Li Mochou, and his heart warmed. Then he saw that the street was blocked by camel caravans and no one was walking. It was just that there were either Mongolians or local Hu people in the city, and no one dared to urge Quan True Lord.

Lin Qingxuan said hurriedly: "Follow me back to the Blue Top Castle to rest, that's where the talk is."

The Blue Top Fort is actually the palace built by the *** world ruler Caliph Harun Rashid hundreds of years ago for his wife, because Tabriz is his wife's hometown, and his wife will always return from Baghdad when she is homesick. Live in Tabriz for a while.

Now the entire Khwarazim has been destroyed and annexed by Mongolia, which means that the Middle East and Central Asia from the northern part of the Arabian Peninsula to the east have all become the territory of the Great Mongolia.

The dominance of the Green Religion was not stable at first, and Zoroastrianism, Manichaeism and other sects competed for believers. At this time, it was completely subverted. According to the will of Genghis Khan, Quanzhen Taoism was regarded as the state religion, and the citizens of the original Khwarazimo were also required. They unconditionally believe in Taoism, but they do not restrict them from following other religions at the same time.

Although there are not many Taoist palaces and Guanyu in the west of Central Asia, in recent years, many statues of Sanqing deities have been transported to West Asia and sold by Yin Kexi, and many noble chiefs have also invited a few. The statues go home to worship, but the form is still similar to that of worshiping traditional creatures.

The Blue Top Fort had long been used as a Taoist palace for the first batch of Quanzhen Daoists, so Lin Qingxuan and the others naturally wanted to live in the Blue Top Fort.

The Taoist host of the Blue Top Fort is Song Defang. After he saluted his teacher Qiu Chuji and several uncles, he went down to prepare meals and arrange rooms.

Lin Qingxuan saw that the men of the Taoists were covered with sand, so he let them bathe and change clothes first, and returned to the bedroom with the letter.

Zhanxin saw Li Mochou's familiar handwriting as soon as he saw it. He had never seen Li Mochou's letter since he went to Eastern Europe three years ago.

In the letter, Li Mochou first talked about lovesickness, and then introduced the development of the palaces such as Zixiao Palace, Chongyang Palace, Qingniu Palace, etc., some people's property and other rough numbers, and also the details of individual key disciples.

The second half introduces the changes in the situation of the Song Dynasty. In recent years, Zhao Kuo's physical health has begun to deteriorate. Because Zhao Zhiyan has won his trust, he has now begun to regent. At the same time, Li Mochou told Lin Qingxuan that he would personally Go to Lin'an, and then give Zhao Kuo some Dragon Transformation Powder to prolong his life for half a year.

Now Da Song has accumulated for ten years, and Quanzhen Sect has punished the traitors and eliminated evil in Da Song, stabilized public security, and the safety and livability index and business atmosphere of each city have risen a few steps.

Although Zhao Xiyan did not have much power in the past few years, he could always influence the situation of the court. Zhao Kuo was persuaded by Zhao Zhiyan and the seven sons of Quanzhen to appoint worthy ministers, investigate and punish corruption, and dismiss mediocrity and cruel officials. Therefore, although there have been repeated voices in Shilin that the Taoism is re-used and the country is in chaos, the "Zhongxing of Jiading" has also become a major achievement in their mouths.

In recent years, Zhao Kuo has not been too concerned with the government, but Zhao Xiyan lives in the Qingniu Palace as the regent. He has been old and faint, and he has paid more and more attention to the longevity of the Qing Dynasty, and he has no intention of interfering with the affairs of the court.

Second, in recent years, Quanzhen Sect has become more and more prosperous, and there is even a faint sign of assisting in governing the country, but with the achievements of Jiading Zhongxing, he is naturally overjoyed, thinking he has understood the principle of governing the country by doing nothing, and he is even more unwilling to go. Ask about the government.

Li Mochou's meaning is to persuade Zhao Kuo to directly cede the throne to Zhao Xiyan, and then receive the Qing repair from Chongyang Palace. In this way, Zhao Zhiyan can be justified, and he can turn the accumulation of more than ten years into measures for the rejuvenation of the Song Dynasty, and then the remnants of the northern expedition can be settled Central Plains.

As for the reason for persuading Zhao Kuo, Li Mochou recalled Lin Qingxuan's previous statement and arranged it, that is, Zhao Kuo's old age and strength declined, and he gradually couldn't bear the backlash of the Central Plains Dragon Vein being occupied by the Golden Man. Giving it to Zhao Xiyan, on the contrary, it can be light-hearted, not only can there be no hidden dangers, but also can cultivate the Tao with peace of mind.

Lin Qingxuan knew that with Zhao Kuo's current level of superstition and Zhao Xiyan's deep love for his brother, it would be no problem for Zhao Kuo to let Zhao Xiyan go. A capable and affectionate brother.

There are more than ten pieces of letterhead, and at the end is a copy of Li Mochou's book of poems, "Waiwei".

"It's going downhill, and Hu doesn't return? Because of Lord Wei, Hu Weihu is exposed in the middle..."

Lin Qingxuan recited it a few times in a low voice, and said with a slight smile, "Want me to go back? I'll be able to go back soon."

Now that Genghis Khan has run out of oil, even if Lin Qingxuan kept helping him, his life was only one month away.

As long as Genghis Khan died, Tuo Lei, who was far away in the desert, could inherit the throne of Genghis Khan. No matter whether the Western Expedition would continue or not, he would not have to stay in Eastern Europe, and he could completely return to the Central Plains.

However, Lin Qingxuan had a vague concern, that is, Genghis Khan Temujin was equivalent to the existence of a god in front of the Mongolian tribes. When he was alive, the core strength of Mongolia would be put on the Western Expedition, and other tribes would not dare to act without authorization.

But after the death of Genghis Khan, the four princes each had their own power, and there were other veterans with their own fiefs, and the fame and status of Tuo Lei were afraid that they would not be able to overwhelm the tribes and let everyone follow their own wishes.

Therefore, even if Tuo Lei is unwilling to go south to attack the Jin Song Dynasty, he is afraid that he will not be able to control the Mongolian ministries. It would be better if he did it according to the collective will of everyone. The way, his brothers and nephews are just waiting for the opportunity to replace him.

After all, at the juncture where Mongolia has swept most of the Eurasian continent, the three small countries of Jin, Song and Dali are very eye-catching. How can the Mongolians be unwilling to sweep the world?
After the death of Genghis Khan, the Mongolian successor Khan, no matter what he thinks, continues to expand and conquer under the special system of Mongolia. It is impossible for all Mongolians to see the meat and not eat it, not only For money and women, but also by nature.

Lin Qingxuan knew very well that unless he could build an above-ground country, Mongolia and Song Dynasty would probably not be able to escape a battle, just one day later.
