I want to embrace the moon for nine days

Xiaoqingliang Mountains are located in the west of Beijing.

This mountainous area is part of the Taihang Mountains. The ancients called it the "head of the Taihang Mountains". The mountains are undulating and the peaks are connected, like dragons and pythons, guarding the entire capital from a distance.

The mountains are so vast, but there are not many really steep places. The scenery is excellent, and there is no miasma. The forest is vast, the smoke is hazy, the mangroves and blue flowers, the green forests and ancient vines are purple and red. It is beautiful in all seasons and is very suitable for outings. .

Over the past hundreds of years, countless literati have been fascinated by its scenery in all seasons, enjoyed it, or left inscriptions about it, adding to the splendor of the scenic spot.

Within Xiaoqingliang Mountain, peaks such as Cuiwei Mountain, Pingpo Mountain, Lushi Mountain, and Xiangshan Mountain, which are close to the city, have been transformed by enclosures, and many palaces, temples, and even royal gardens have been built.

Yi Nanfeng, the Xiantian leader, stands on the main peak of Xiangshan Mountain. From a distance, he can almost see the outline of the capital dozens of miles away. From a closer look, he can see the summer palace run by the royal families of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

Those excavated mountain cliff carvings, such as Jingping Lake, which were excavated and repaired by humans, have been polished by time and become part of the natural scenery. They are beautiful and miraculous.

He turned to look west again.

Between the peaks of other mountains in Xiaoqingliang Mountain, there are also many gardens built by high-level officials of the Xiantian Sect, and there are even villa parks developed based on Western architectural styles.

Although it is slightly uneven and has abrupt edges and corners, it has a more rugged and magnificent beauty than the royal gardens.

The scale of the gardens operated by the royal families of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties in Xiaoqingliang Mountain was not comparable to the buildings built by the senior members of the Xiantian Sect, who recruited civilians, dispatched materials, and built them in just a few decades.

"Times have indeed changed. Aren't those emperors and officials in the past still less extravagant and lustful than my old brothers?"

"But even if they can recruit craftsmen and civilians at any cost, they don't have so many new equipment, new building materials, and new transportation routes to help them squander."

"Although we have only occupied the north in the past few decades, we have really achieved what we said during the uprising, forming an alliance based on blood. All the old brothers can enjoy the blessings, glory, wealth, official title, fame, beauties and famous horses, all of which are what they ask for. , whatever you want.”

The Xiantian leader murmured to himself, "In such a great era, there are still some things that don't go well. There are those ignorant people who obstruct us and insist on going against us."

"It would be great if I was the only one in the world who knew martial arts. If I had to cure those bastards, I wouldn't have to worry so much."

Between the shadows of the trees, a fat man in brocade clothes with a white cloth wrapped around his forehead walked over. He cupped his hands and said, "Master, all the giant businessmen in He Zong's territory who intend to flee to us have been accepted by us and settled here." alright."

"However, because Qian Jinshi Gu granted official positions to the first batch of people who escaped, the remaining people are now a little restless and jealous."

The Xiantian leader smiled and said: "Then continue to seal them. These people are engaged in the cigarette business, spice business, Western medicine magic medicine, etc., and they all have a lot of connections with foreigners. They have a lot of connections. When they come to our territory, they will naturally be able to do so in the future. Use it to your advantage and give it some comfort.”

The man in brocade clothes frowned slightly: "As a result, there will be a lot more names on the official list."

During the Qing Dynasty, the official system was very cumbersome. There were too many checks and balances among the same levels. There was no clear separation of powers. They were arguing with each other, and things were often difficult to communicate smoothly.

This is because the number of Manchu nobles is not enough, and in order to prevent the Han from stealing power, they came up with a whole set of methods of stacking beds and decentralizing power.

This did ensure the rights of the Manchu royal family. At least within the officialdom, it was difficult for anyone to start a big disturbance from the bottom up.

After the Xiantian Sect occupied the north, they followed this system, but the reasons were slightly different.

Yi Nanfeng has never felt that his authority needs to be maintained by decentralization. He is the leader and the biggest pillar of the Xiantian Sect. His personal strength can be said to be the guarantee of the entire Xiantian Sect.

As long as he is alive, even if he does not go to court for ten years or does nothing for twenty years, no one will dare to ignore his existence.

It was also out of this pride that he insisted on taking the title of leader instead of claiming to be emperor.

The emperor was just the most outstanding person among the people he had killed. The innate leader was the only one.

The reason why Xiantian Sect follows the Manchu official system is purely because... there are enough official positions!
If you have enough official positions, you won't feel bad about being rewarded. Brothers, big and small, relatives and fellow clan members all have official positions.

Although it is difficult for people who become officials to tell what they are in charge of, whether their powers are mutually restrictive, but as long as they become officials, when they face the common people, they must be superior to others. What do you think? , can be implemented legitimately.

Therefore, when the Xiantian Sect has occupied the north for decades, the former Manchu officials naturally killed countless generations. However, the number of new officials now is obviously much greater than that of the past.

"Oh, I remembered that you and Wu Chang suggested to me many times that I should reduce my official position."

There was a hint of sadness in the tone of the Xiantian Cult leader, "Impermanent Force mainly transforms the Xiantian Cult into some kind of mercenary company, leaving ordinary people with the idea of ​​serving as soldiers in the company, so that others can retain their shareholder status at most, and cannot interfere. Real power cannot support relatives, this matter is really hurtful. "

"If he hadn't traveled across the ocean in person for the Tianjue organization, and there was no smooth flow of information when he came and went, and there weren't more elder protectors around him to help him, he might not have been so easily killed by Su Hanshan."

"You can send some people to assassinate him first. If he sees something is wrong, he can escape unscathed."

The man in brocade is named Fa Wuwei. He is also Yi Nanfeng's sworn brother, and he is also the younger brother of Fa Wuchang's mother.

"Leader, no one hates such things as enjoying happiness. Isn't it that we have been practicing martial arts for so many years just to be unscrupulous, dominate and have everyone support us?"

Fa Wuwei shook his head and said, "But we have to support everyone, and at least we need everyone to be able to breathe. If we continue to appoint officials randomly like this, those so-called ordinary people will be tortured too much, and they will die and run away in droves, and they will even look like scarecrows." We are so insensitive and despondent that our sense of accomplishment is lost.”

"Although my brother was unfortunately killed, we still firmly believe that his idea is the way out for the future of Xiantian Sect."

The Xiantian leader pondered: "After all, we are all old brothers. When the generation that fought with us is dead, it will not be too late to liquidate and restructure."

Although the body of a Huandan master has not been tempered, he cannot live up to three hundred years like Xuantai.

However, their understanding of internal strength and external energy is already extraordinary, and with gentle nourishment, they can live a physical life of nearly 150 years.

It would not be difficult for Yi Nanfeng to wait until all the first-generation senior officials of Xiantian Sect who opposed the idea of ​​Fa Wuchang died of old age.

"The most urgent task is to keep an eye on the movements of He Zong's territory and Songjiang Mansion. If we can bite off a large piece of them, it will not only release some bad energy, but also fill the void in the sect."

The Xiantian leader stroked his beard and looked far away, "If Su Hanshan can be killed, not only can his process of transforming various ships and trains in Songjiang be adopted, but this prestige can also spread far and wide among countries. The benefits are endless. ”

"But even if we have a tacit understanding with Xu Zhixing, and he can contain He Zong when the time comes, I still don't have full confidence in killing a new Dan Huan..."

Songjiang Mansion is too close to the sea.

The golden elixir method is good at differentiating the vital energy, and is also best at confusing the atmosphere. No matter it is in the deep mountains or the deep sea, once you are involved in it, with the help of the complex environment, the mixed energy will be hidden and transferred quietly, and it will be difficult for outsiders to detect it.

Fa Wuwei said: "Speaking of Songjiang Mansion, I just received a message from there. Since my brother's death, I have sent out shadow spies that our family started training forty years ago, all pretending to be Songjiang civilians, and sneaking in there. , inquire about the news.”

"According to their reports, a strange disease appeared on Chongming Island three days ago. Overnight, more than a thousand people were affected. Su Hanshan ordered the relocation of all residents on the island."

"At the same time, there was a strange ship in the waters near Chongming Island. The hull was stretched and deformed by the ice. It was probably Su Hanshan himself. I could barely make out the words. It seemed to be a Fuso freighter."

It is impossible for a normal commercial cargo ship to be attacked by Su Hanshan himself. It seems that the Fusang people are likely to be related to the strange disease on Chongming Island.

But Fusang didn't even have a single returning elixir at the moment, so what reason did he have to be the first to provoke Songjiang Mansion? Unless it has something to do with their allies, the Dutch.

"Those foreigners are actually more anxious than us."

The Xiantian leader thought thoughtfully, "In this case, Xu Zhixing and I may not be the only ones to attack the Songjiang Mansion in the future. Maybe we can also find another strong support."

As he spoke, his eyes dropped, as if he wanted to penetrate the rocks at his feet and see directly into the heart of the mountain.

"As for these people... bring a few over and join in the action."

Most of the main peak of Xiangshan Mountain has been hollowed out, leaving a huge space about a mile in diameter and about a hundred feet high.

The only light source in the entire space is a crystal suspended high in the sky.

The irregular spar the size of a fist is covered with various parallel or oblique circuits.

Looking from all directions, from above and below, from every different angle, what you see are either symmetrical or inward-rotating patterns. The three-dimensional structure is intricate and full of geometric beauty.

On the ground, dozens of men, women and children were sitting in a circle, all wearing white robes. Invisible internal energy was flying, all connected to the crystal stone, and then fed back into their bodies.

They muttered words, sometimes calculated with their hands, and looked at the crystal together, conducting deep understanding and verification.

While the two people were talking on the mountain, they suddenly saw a group of people riding fast horses running down the mountain.

These people came from the direction of the capital. Not only did they work hard, they even obviously poured their own skills into the meridians of the horse to tap its potential.

As they approached the Xiangshan Mountains, the endurance of the horses gradually became exhausted and the speed slowed down. The group of people simply abandoned their horses and galloped up.

Fa Wuwei said: "It's the Admiral of the Nine Sects."

"Leader!!"

The group of people came up the mountain and knelt on one knee, their heads lowered.

The leader of the nine admirals seemed to be too nervous, sweating profusely, and his voice sounded stiff and hoarse.

"Admiral He sent an envoy to break into the Nine Admirals' Yamen and brought a message."

The Xiantian leader said calmly: "What's the message?" "Since ancient times, the capital has been known as the center of dragon energy, and those who govern the world are known as dragons."

"It's a pity that no matter whether it is the previous emperor or the current leader, with your way of governing the world, you can't see the slightest trace of the heaven's movement, the terrain is Kun, nine five, use nine, see the true dragon and the world will be well!"

Admiral Jiumen opened his mouth to speak, but his voice became more and more strange, not like his usual voice at all.

And everyone behind him also followed him and said the same sentence.

At this time, the sun has already set. Although the skylight in the capital area is still relatively bright, it is far from comparable to that at noon.

However, while these people were talking, the dust particles floating in the air seemed to be beating irregularly.

The square on the main peak of Xiangshan Mountain became extremely bright, and the dust trails were clearly visible.

The voices of so many people were superimposed together, but it seemed that a complete, independent voice that did not belong to anyone present was born from it.

"Let me listen to you, the real dragon roar!!"

Fa Wuwei sensed that something was wrong, raised his power angrily, and shouted: "Presumptuous!"

At the same time as he spoke, he had already used his power to suppress the Nine Sect Admirals and others.

No matter what the strangeness on the Nine Sect Admirals and others is, his attack can definitely disrupt everyone's skills and voices.

However, just as his skill came out of his body, he suddenly felt that the innate leader next to him flicked his sleeve and flew him away.

boom! ! ! !

When Fa Wuwei stopped dozens of meters away, he felt layers of air waves that were like iron walls pressing towards him. Even if he tried his best to resist, many tears appeared on his clothes.

He opened his eyes angrily, using all his eyesight to see, but he still felt dazzled.

The only thing that can be determined, the extremely clear and unquestionable scenery is... red, hot, and bright! !

It was a red light, a pillar of light as thick as a bucket.

Just between the lightning and flint, a straight line of red light burst out from the top of the mountain to the east.

The nine admirals and others who were on the red light trajectory have been reduced to ashes, with no bones left.

The figure of the innate leader was also knocked away by the red light.

A deep ravine was torn into the ground, and the entire square was cut in half. Smoke rose, but this ravine also extended beyond the square, breaking through the guardrails and woods, all the way to the edge of the cliff.

When the Xiantian Cult Master stepped heavily on the cliff, and shocking cracks covered the entire cliff and boulders, and even extended into the mountain, his figure slowed down.

The red light blocked by his hand revealed its true form.

It was a pillar, as long as the heights of three or four adults combined, as thick as a bucket, with thousands of hollow cavities inside, a large iron pillar with a dragon pattern.

When the iron pillar had been blocked, the sound of a thick red light trail spanning the two hills was heard, causing the air to riot.

The violent air currents collided with each other, roared, and rubbed, truly like the roar of a dragon, shocking the mountains and forests in all directions.

In the mountains to the west, in the manors and villas of the senior officials of the Xiantian Sect, countless people were startled by the sound of the dragon's roar. They raised their heads in shock and looked at the track.

"it turns out……"

Yi Nanfeng squeezed out two words from his throat, don't say that others didn't expect such an unexpected attack.

Even he himself could not sense the attack trend in advance and could only resist hastily.

For masters in the Huandan realm, they can feel it whenever there is an enemy within a few miles who mobilizes the energy of heaven and earth to harm themselves.

Because of the long-range attack, if you want to hit the target, you must be locked by the Qi Machine Sensing. Once you use the Qi Machine Sensing, each other's breath senses, entanglement and collision, will naturally be noticed by the target.

However, Su Hanshan did not send out Qi induction by himself, but controlled people like the Nine Sect Admirals to emit specific electromagnetic wavelengths to complete the positioning.

As for himself, he had been saving up for a long time a few miles away, and was constantly smelting and transforming the two iron lions he brought from the Admiral's Yamen in the capital.

It was cast into a dragon-patterned iron pillar that was filled with holes and passages and was temporarily endowed with powerful magnetism.

With the power accumulated to the extreme, he launched this dragon-patterned iron pillar.

The entire iron pillar didn't even have a chance to deform. In the collision just now, all the structures were destroyed from beginning to end.

In the dim red light for a moment, the heavy iron pillar made a bang and seemed to disappear out of thin air.

In fact, they turned into tiny particles that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye and scattered violently.

The Xiantian leader stretched his left arm forward, and you could clearly see that the skin on his palm was as red as blood, and he couldn't help but tremble.

He formed a golden elixir in an instant and withstood the blow of this long-range heavy weapon. It was not easy. His physical and mental strength, and his meridians still couldn't help but sway a little.

Just during this delay, another piercing white light extended in front of him.

That was He Zong standing among the mountains and forests opposite, extending the spear in his hand.

This spear stabbed from the previous red light trajectory.

The short-term vacuum channel caused by the Panlong Iron Pillar, and some areas that were not closed, greatly reduced the resistance of this shot and made the speed even more terrifying.

The Xiantian leader's left hand was immediately pierced, but before the spear expanded, he closed his fingers, locked the gun body, and shouted angrily.

"He Zong!!"

The straight white spear suddenly became crooked, more rugged than the branches of the old trees in the mountains, giving it an absurd and weird feeling.

Each of the fifteen gravitational points is enough to compress a hall into a solid sphere in half a second. At this moment, they are all acting inside the vitality spear.

Fa Wuchang's gravity control is only good at affecting solid matter, and has minimal interference with air and vitality.

The innate leader's gravity control destroyed He Zong's vitality spear with just a pinch of his fingers.

While destroying the spear with his left hand, he also waved down with his right hand.

The cliff was already full of cracks, but none of them could compare to the phenomenon caused by waving his right hand.

It didn't feel like a crack was being made by the force of the palm, but like the mountain was naturally cracking, opening its own black basin.

From the soil gravel on the surface, to the solid rock in the deep layers, and even to the steel-reinforced structures on the inner dome of the mountain.

Because of the innate leader's wave of his hand, everything split open on both sides, forming a large tunnel that resembled the mouth of a giant wolf.

The crystal stone suspended inside the mountain also shot upward at the same time.

The dozens of people sitting around inside the cave seemed to be focusing all their attention on the crystal.

Once the crystal flew upward, all of them shouted without thinking, shot upward into the sky, and flew towards the tunnel.

But the tunnel was closed abruptly in the next second.

Su Hanshan appeared on the top of the mountain, stepped one foot diagonally on the ground, and carried out the three pure Yang magic arts, accompanied by a massive amount of heaven and earth vitality.

Golden energy spreads throughout the mountain, pushing the soil and rocks to deform and squeeze forward, squeezing the cracked tunnel directly shut.

And his hands had already collided with the palms of the Xiantian Cult Master who had returned to defense in time.

"It's you?!"

The Xiantian Cult Leader's body trembled slightly. He had already seen Su Hanshan's sketch from the information.

"it's me!"

Su Hanshan said loudly, "Last time you looked forward and backward, this time I took the initiative!!"
