Zongwu: My Proficiency Panel

Chapter 81
Five days later.

Ning Xiu took the refining elixir, and his injuries were basically healed. Under the leadership of two Taoist boys, he met Taoist Priest Tianhe.

A quaint practice room displays big guns, long swords, and wooden dummy posts.

Daoist Tianhe, who has a bone and fairy wind, carries two swords on his back today, one long and one short, and his temperament has become less detached, like a god descending from demons, calm and solemn.

Ning Xiu shifted his gaze to the other two.

One is a middle-aged Taoist priest with a long beard, and his aura is like an abyss, he is a congenital master.

The other is a young Taoist priest with delicate features and gentle features. He is dressed in a green cloth robe and is spotless. His face is red and white, as if it has been blown to pieces.

The expression is chic but has a sense of being out of the dust, no matter who sees it, he will feel good about it.

It's just strange that the Qingcheng faction still accepts female disciples?

Ning Xiu saw that this person was exercising strength, a large ball of lead and mercury that was more than three feet high was in his hands as light as nothing. With a kick, he jumped into the air, and then was held by both hands and put into the stone plate. The large ball of lead and mercury, weighing about a thousand catties, kept spinning.

The outside of this big ball is lead, the inside is mercury, it is fluid, like blood, and the whole ball is equivalent to a person. Using this ball to practice kung fu is better than wooden dummy piles, and inferior to living piles.

"Good work!"

Before the three of Ning Xiu saw that the little Taoist was still practicing, they didn't make a sound. Now that he finished practicing, Ning Xiu immediately praised him.

The little Taoist bowed slightly and said, "Praise it."

Taoist Tianhe said: "Layman Zhao, this is my Qingcheng sect's Tianmiao Temple Master Angry Daoist, and this is Shiyun, a disciple of Daoist."

"The old man has seen the layman."

"Xiaodao has met the layman."

The voices of one old and one young came, and the little Taoist priest Ning Xiu thought was a woman, but it was a man's voice, clear and gentle, which made him immediately understand what was going on, and immediately returned the salute.

"Meet the two."

It has to be said that there is a reason why the Qingcheng School is the number one school in Sichuan. Not only are there many martial arts skills, but the innate masters in the school include Taoist Priest Tianhe, Taoist Pine Wood, and Daoist Nu...

What's more important is that the inheritor of martial arts is excellent, just like Shi Yun in front of Ning Xiu, who was able to easily turn a huge ball with his fist strength when he was only a weak crown.

Training marrow like frost, training blood like mercury, can be regarded as a master.

It's just that I don't know how many such disciples Qingcheng faction still have.

A few people said a few more polite words, Ning Xiu asked: "Tianhe Daoist, what is it that makes everyone in Qingcheng Sect seriously?"

He walked along with Daotong, the leader. Many Qingcheng sect disciples who didn't have swords were equipped with long swords. It is obvious that something big is going to happen if they mobilize the teachers so much.

"To tell you the truth, layman, it's like this..." Taoist Master Tianhe explained slowly.

It turned out that during Ning Xiu's travels around the world, Song Dynasty and Mongolia went to war.

The war was urgent, and people from all walks of life headed by Guo Jing on the front line of the Taihang Mountains in the north contributed their strength (most of them were recruited) to fight against the Mongolian army. In addition, the royal masters took action to barely stabilize the front line.

Because of the existence of giants like the Guiyuanmen on the southern front, the chivalry is banned by martial arts, and its own troops are weak. In addition, the southern front borders Mongolia, so the pressure on the front is extremely high, and more troops are needed.

Because of the secret deal with the Liuhe Gang, the head of Guiyuan Sect also sent thousands of disciples and several innate masters to assist Song in fighting against Mongolia, but these were not enough.

With the acquiescence of the Guiyuan Sect, many sects in the rivers and lakes have been recruited by the imperial court. The weak sects are often forced to go to the front line. The big sects like the Qingcheng Sect are okay, and they need to send half of their innate masters and some disciples That's it.

However, because the former head Yu Canghai's massacre of the Fuwei Escort was spread among the Jianghu, leaving a bad impression on the officials, the court asked the Qingcheng faction to keep only one innate master in the sect. Three generations of disciples must join the army to fight against foreign enemies.

The battlefield is ruthless, and the confrontation between the two armies is a huge meat grinder. The second and third generations of Qingcheng sect disciples are mixed, so rushing into the battlefield is tantamount to death.

Fighting against foreign enemies is the righteousness of the family and the country, and it is a matter of duty, but in this way, it is clear that the Qingcheng faction is completely driven into the ground and the inheritance is severed.

Daoist Tianhe said: "The court is trying to break the inheritance of my celestial master... It would be fine if we old bones died, and we deserved to die for the country, but the three generations of my disciples, like Shiyun, were only 17 years old, and even some They are only thirteen or fourteen years old, and they will all be dragged into the battlefield, they are still children."

Master Nu also said at this time: "Jay Zhao is the first disciple of Guiyuan Sect Master, with noble status and chivalrous spirit. We old bones will die when we die, but the second and third generation disciples will go to the battlefield at a young age. It's a pity to die, and I can't bear to wait. If you can open your mouth and intercede for me, Qingcheng, and only let the middle-aged elders of my sect go to fight against the enemy, it will be a great kindness to my entire Qingcheng faction. "

Ning Xiu fell into deep thought. Sure enough, there are no free benefits in the world, and there is a price to pay.

Qingcheng sect is a neutral sect without any backing. When facing the powerful imperial court, they can't be perfunctory like Guiyuan sect. Facing the notorious Xu Fengyun, they are very anxious.

But with short hands and soft mouth, Ning Xiu always repays favors, so he asked:
"Then who came to recruit soldiers?"

Taoist Priest Tianhe replied: "It's Xu Fengyun. This person used to be the great eunuch in the palace, and later became the Lord of the West Factory. He was in charge of recruiting people from the Jianghu. It is said that the sects that cannot be recruited have been exterminated."

"Xu Fengyun..." Ning Xiu repeated the name in a low voice, as if he had some impressions, "Master Daoist, I'm just a junior, if my master speaks, maybe he will listen."

After a pause, Ning Xiu continued: "However, if Xu Fengyun comes, I will definitely say a few words. As for whether he will listen or not, it is not up to me to decide."

Hearing this, Daoist Tianhe and Master Nu were not sad but happy, "What you want is this sentence from your Excellency, destiny and human affairs are hard to break, and we are just doing our best. If it can't be changed, it is also my Qingcheng sect's fault." dead."

"The two priests are open-minded. I will definitely not stand by and do my best."

The evil planted has yielded evil results, and if Yu Canghai hadn't put his best knowledge aside and failed to practice hard, but instead plotted against the Lin family's "Sword Manual of Resisting Evil", perhaps such an incident would not have happened.

But Daoist Tianhe did not hesitate to waste his mind to gather artistic conception for himself, and gave him precious medicine to heal his internal injuries. It is right to send a few good words for Qingcheng.

But the master has expressed compromise on the surface, and his own words are mostly useless.

"So, thank you layman."

The three bowed to thank each other, Ning Xiu bowed immediately, and then asked: "When will Xu Fengyun come? I saw all the Taoist priests in the temple wearing swords, with serious expressions, could it be today..."

"It's today, but the exact time has not been announced. We have already made preparations, and I only hope that Xu Fengyun can be more relaxed."

Qingcheng sect is an old sect, and there are many masters in the sect. Although the Guiyuan sect, which is falling at this critical juncture, is a bit suspicious, but it can subdue a big sect without bloodshed. This kind of business is worth doing.
