Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 118 The Famous General of the Early Tang Dynasty, the Red-haired Monster
"But the illness prolongs the life, walks according to the five mountains, knows the news of the eight seas, and the devil king puts his head on. The guards of my house, the evil disappears and the filth is scattered, the Dao Qi lasts forever, and the urgency is like a law!"

After pinching the formula and chanting the mantra, the Longevity Talisman turned into a golden light and escaped into the body of the unconscious man.

Li Daoxuan could see that the evil spirit in his body quickly dissipated, and his face gradually became rosy.

For ordinary people, the Longevity Talisman is already considered a panacea.

Two hours later.

The man was about to wake up, his complexion was rosy, his breathing was steady, and the wound had already begun to scab.

Li Daoxuan was secretly surprised.

Although this has the effect of the Longevity Talisman, but the recovery is so fast, it is also because this person has a strong physique and a well-trained body.

He has already checked, this person is not a monk, he should be a martial artist, although he is highly skilled in martial arts, he is not too threatening.

Otherwise, with Li Daoxuan's temperament, before he wakes up, he must be tied up three times inside and outside three times.

Who knows if he is good or bad?

Li Daoxuan walked towards him, and when he was about to reach him, the man suddenly opened his eyes, leaped up from the ground like a tiger and leopard, shook the halberd in his hand, like a dragon chant, the tip of the spear pierced Li Daoxuan's throat, only The slightest difference.

"Good halberd method!"

Li Daoxuan sighed in admiration, and at the same time signaled to Sister Yu not to kill anyone.

If he hadn't waved his hand quietly to stop him just now, the mighty Wuzi in front of him would have been stabbed in the head by the Qingyu Duntian Hairpin.

And when he saw a white-clothed scholar in front of him instead of the man-eating red-haired wild monster, the man immediately put away his halberd and bowed to Li Daoxuan to apologize.

"I'm so sorry, I thought you were that man-eating beast."

Li Daoxuan's eyes moved, and he said with a smile: "It's okay, I saw the hero drifting down the current, so I rescued him, but it's not really a rescue, the main reason is that the hero is in good health and recovers quickly."

Hearing that it was Li Daoxuan who rescued him, the man's eyes were full of gratitude. Regardless of the faintly painful wound, he saluted deeply again, and said, "Xue Li, thank you for saving my life, sir!"

"You are Welcome--"

Li Daoxuan was stunned suddenly, then looked him up and down, and asked, "Xue Li, what's your word?"

Xue Li was stunned for a moment, and said: "Xue Li, the name is Rengui, sir, have you heard of my name?"

Li Daoxuan's spirit lifted, not only had he heard about it, but he was like a thunderbolt, and he had admired his name for a long time!

Xue Rengui, a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, joined the army in Zhenguan for 18 years, and shined brilliantly on the battlefield of the Eastern Conquest of Koryo.

Later, Xue Rengui fought in the South and the North, and left many good stories that have been sung for thousands of years, such as Three Arrows Set the Tianshan Mountains, a good strategy to stop fighting, and love for the people like Xiangzhou City.

It's a pity that because of the pig teammates, he had no choice but to defeat Dafeichuan, and was demoted to a commoner to farm. It was not until the age of 70 that he was ordered in danger due to the invasion of the Turkic army.

At that time, the Turkic army heard that the general of the Tang army was Xue Rengui, but they couldn't believe it. On the battlefield, Xue Rengui took off his helmet, showing his pale face and white hair, and scared the Turkic general into fleeing.

And Xue Rengui, at the age of seventy, beheaded ten thousand people, captured thirty thousand alive, and defeated the enemy army!

But it is a pity that after that battle, Xue Rengui ran out of energy and died of illness soon, leaving only a legendary allusion of taking off his hat and defeating all enemies.

When Li Daoxuan read Tang history, he often lamented that a generation of generals and stars had wasted too many years in vain.

"Sir, do you recognize me?"

Xue Rengui was a little surprised. He looked at Li Daoxuan and felt that although this person looked weak, he had an extraordinary bearing. If he had seen him, he should not forget it.

Li Daoxuan came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "It's just similar to the name of an old friend of mine. By the way, what kind of beast did you encounter, and you couldn't protect yourself with your martial arts?"

When Xue Rengui heard this, there was still some fear in his eyes, and he said: "Xue has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and he is proud of his martial arts skills. He often goes to the deep mountains to fight tigers and leopards. Firstly, he can hone his martial arts skills, and secondly, he can earn some money."

He suddenly sighed: "But this is the first time I have encountered such a terrifying beast. It has red hair all over its body, looks like an ape, roars like thunder, moves as fast as lightning, has infinite strength, and is invulnerable to swords and guns. Can't shoot through!"

Li Daoxuan thought to himself, what kind of monster is this, is it a mountain spirit?
"By the way, I see how you two are dressed. Could it be that you are here for sightseeing?"

Xue Rengui asked, he also saw Chen Ziyu on the side, and he was astonished, he did not expect such a beautiful woman to exist in the world.

She stood quietly, her eyes never leaving Li Daoxuan.

Xue Rengui couldn't help sighing to himself, benefactor is really a blessing.

Li Daoxuan took Chen Ziyu's hand with a smile, and said: "My servant, Li Daoxuan, this is my wife. The two of us are not here to play, but to visit a relative in Yaowang Village."

Hearing the word Yaowangcun, Xue Rengui's pupils trembled, and he blurted out: "It's absolutely impossible!"

Li Daoxuan was a little surprised, and said: "Why did Daxia Xue say that?"

"I can't talk about being a hero. If your benefactor doesn't dislike him, just call me Brother Xue."

After a pause, Xue Rengui said solemnly: "Sir, that Yaowang Village is very weird. I met a red-haired monster there before!"

"Oh? Can you tell me more about it?"

Xue Rengui naturally knows everything about the savior.

"To tell you the truth, I was staying in that Yaowang Village before. The atmosphere there is very strange, and there is an indescribable sense of depression. In addition, I always have the feeling of being secretly spied on."

"Late last night, I was studying the art of war, and suddenly a red-haired beast broke into me. I raised my halberd and fought with it, from the village to the mountains and wilderness."

"I don't know what that monster is, but it became more and more courageous as it fought, and finally seriously injured me. In a critical situation, I jumped into the river to escape and survived by luck!"

After listening to him, Li Daoxuan had a vague premonition in his heart that the weirdness in the village might be related to this red-haired monster.

Shaking his head, he said: "This time our husband and wife have something important to do, and we have to visit that relative. Even if it's weird, we have to go."

After finishing speaking, he laughed and said: "Li is not talented, but he also knows some swordsmanship, which should be enough to protect himself."

When Xue Rengui heard this, he sighed in his heart. This gentleman probably didn't take his words seriously.

However, he can also understand that as a scholar, if you don't speak strangely, you will not believe it easily if you haven't seen it with your own eyes.

As for the so-called swordsmanship...

Xue Rengui had observed the opponent carefully long ago, there were some traces of martial arts training, but not many, and there were no calluses on his hands, even if he really knew swordsmanship, it was probably only a beginner.

It's all about embroidering legs.

Li Daoxuan clasped his fists at him and said with a smile: "There is always a banquet in the world. Brother Xue, hurry up and go down the mountain before the sun sets. I believe that if there is a destiny, there will be a day when we will meet again."

After finishing speaking, he was about to pull Chen Ziyu away.

Although the other party is the famous Xue Rengui, Li Daoxuan will not try to curry favor, just make a good relationship.

Although kingship and wealth are good, they are just fleeting. His ambition is in the immortal way, and he has never had a close relationship with the famous minister Di Renjie, and he doesn't care about Xue Rengui.

Looking at the backs of the two, Xue Rengui gritted his teeth, stepped forward and said, "Wait a minute, sir!"

Xue Rengui sonorously said: "Although Xue is an unknown person, he also knows that he saved his life, and he can't repay it. Since the husband insists on going to Yaowang Village, let Xue Li clear the way for him and provide comprehensive protection!"
