Dragon Soul in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 56

Sadness welled up on Wang An's face, and he said with moist eyes: "It's a pity that the old slave was blind back then. I also regret that I met such a white-eyed wolf!"

Seeing Zhu Gan's expression on his face, Wang An wiped his wet and reddish eyes, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't be alarmed, this old slave is a living person. Back then, the Wei thief wanted to kill this old slave, and this old slave was hungry. After three days, he knew that the bandit Wei would not give up, so he decided to fake his death, but Liu Chao, the admiral of Nanhaizi, was also a waste, he really thought that the old slave was dead, so he reported the news of the old slave's death."

"The real reason why the Wei thief wants the old slave's life is that the old slave got a strange book by chance in Da Nei. Incomparable, but this old servant is dull, he has practiced martial arts in the palace for so many years, but he is only at the peak of dark strength, and after more than ten years in the palace, he has only learned some superficial aspects of the book, I am really ashamed!"

When he really fell asleep and met the pillow, Zhu Gan didn't know how to describe his mood at this time. He just learned about the existence of this magical skill from Wang Cheng'en, and now that Wang An mentioned it like this, he suddenly felt a kind of ecstasy of finding it again.

Looking at Wang An eagerly, his heart was extremely anxious.

Seeing Zhu Qian's eager eyes, Wang An lamented after a long time: "Your Majesty, do you know why the old slave and the adopted daughter of the old slave can see the truth of His Majesty at a glance? In fact, the hysterical patient played by Your Majesty was It’s so flawless, at first the old slave was taken aback, but what was shown was too real, and it turned out to be the most fake!”

Zhu Gan looked at him puzzled, why did he suddenly mention this, although Zhu Gan was puzzled about being seen through, and wanted to know the truth, but what he wanted to know most at this time was whether the "Fire Virtue Red Dragon Art" was true or not. What kind of magical power is so miraculous.

Seeing Zhu Qian's expression, Wang An sighed heavily. No matter the world's extraordinary achievements, no matter whether it is an emperor who owns the world, or an eunuch who lacks emotion, he can't escape the temptation of longevity.

He shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, because there is no trace of qi in your body to block you, and the spiritual sense of a master of transformation is extremely sharp, and can capture even the slightest changes. When my unworthy righteous daughter left, you relaxed, so It was detected easily. This is exactly what I want to say, only the second half of "Huode Chilong Jue" needs a deep foundation of internal strength to restore the previous formula, but this is no longer the real " Fire Virtue Red Dragon Jue", but another magical skill, created by oneself, and everyone is different."

After thinking about it carefully, Zhu Gan realized that he was really too excited, so that he didn't hear Wang An's words clearly, and couldn't help asking: "Could it be that you have the second half of "Fire Virtue and Red Dragon Jue" and want to read it?" Practicing this magical skill also depends on luck, to see if you can create the first half by yourself, and you also need to have deep inner strength."

A clear look appeared on Wang An's face, and he nodded in agreement.

Zhu Gan's expression froze, this is a cheating magical skill, but he was unwilling to give up: "Okay, I will find a way to make up the first half of this magical skill, and you will give me the second part!"

Looking at Zhu Gan's resolute look, Wang An suddenly thought of Emperor Guangzong. If he had half the tenacity of his own son, he might not become the January Emperor who was ridiculed by history. It would be ridiculous to take some red pills. Sigh, but it also gave him a good reputation from the literati, but it can't change that he is as ruthless and ungrateful as Emperor Wanli.

Wang An drove the boat and chased downstream, writing down the half of "Huode Chilong Jue" silently along the way.

Looking at these secret words, Zhu Qian only felt that they were esoteric and difficult to understand. Fortunately, there was such a great master to point them out, but after all, he felt that this "Fire Virtue and Chilong Jue" was too esoteric, and it was very different from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching". Another difference.

Ignorant but not understanding, understanding but not ignorant, just constantly changing between these two kinds of confusion.

Wang An's boat was very fast and very stable, and soon arrived at the lake where the red-clothed army was moored. Zhu Qian wanted to ask about the secrets of the three strange cases in the palace several times, but Wang An just He laughed without saying a word, and finally threw out a sentence: "When Your Majesty understands the "Fire Virtue and Red Dragon Jue", the answer to the three mysterious cases in the palace will naturally be revealed."

"Look, the lord is there!" Zhu Qian was carefully reading the manuscript written silently by Wang An in the boat, quietly comprehending the true meaning in it, but he couldn't see anything about martial arts in the book, but rather It's like a ghost novel that teaches people the truth.

For example, there is a very simple story about ghosts and monsters. When a man gallops on a horse, he feels that the horse under him turns into a river. He is about to drown, and the river under him turns into a giant dragon, which lifts him up. Nine days, the situation changed in the blink of an eye, and he kept falling down. This story really makes people feel ridiculous and inexplicable.

It’s more like ghosts harassing a certain village. There is a rascal in the village. After seeing the plight of the villagers, he turns into a white horse in his dream and is willing to sacrifice his delicious meat to keep the village. In the end, the rascals are poisoned to death. up.

Zhu Gan was engrossed in watching, but his heart gradually became uncomfortable. These are all shit. He threw the manuscript on the table forcefully, looked up at Wang An, hoping that he could explain these stories to himself, but found that How can there be his figure, he has long been in the sky.

However, there were a few more red-clothed soldiers around, with unconcealable joy on their faces, looking at Zhu Gan, as if seeing their own parents.

"Oh! It's a pity that we will be enemies when we meet again." Zhu Gan sighed, packed up the manuscripts on the table, rubbed his stiff legs, and glanced at Wang Cheng'en, who stood beside him, and said, "You didn't mean it on purpose." Let him catch me!"

Wang Chengen hurriedly lowered his head in panic and said, "I dare not!"

"Hmph! Don't have another time." The boat was already approaching the side of the giant ship. Zhu Gan put the manuscript in his hands and climbed up. He just turned away from everyone's faces, writing slowly and couldn't hide his smile.

The fleet set sail with Yang Fan and continued to head south. This time, the Red Army's target was directed at Fengyang, the central capital. They would not only encounter the official army, but also the peasant army such as Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong. There would be several tough battles waiting for them .

At this time, the north has basically calmed down. The capital of the bandits of the White Lotus Sect was surrounded by the officers and soldiers into a small county town, and the gangsters of the White Lotus Sect knew that they had only one way to die, so they relied on the small county town to defend.

The walls of the small county town are only three or four meters high, and they have been blown to pieces by cannons. The White Lotus Sect gangsters were also brave when they reached a desperate situation. They killed all the men and women in the county town and cooked them for food. The weapon demolished the house and smashed it with stones, vividly interpreting the words "the trapped beast is still fighting".

At this time, because Yang Ling refused to eat human flesh, she was already so sick that Shuangxia had no flesh, and her chin was even thinner, but her eyes were more watery, which made people feel pity. What I have done has been disgusted to the extreme, I just want to leave this place, return to the side of the Buddha mother, and follow the green light forever, and never go out again.

The night gradually darkened, and more and more officers and soldiers gathered outside the city. The real danger was the thousand Guanning cavalry from Cao Bianjiao. He relaxed his vigilance, stopped attacking at night, and returned to the camp to bury the pot for cooking.

The sound of yin and music continued to resound in the city. After a hard night, the leaders of the White Lotus Sect pulled out the women who had looted along the way. After playing with them, they killed them and made them into dinner. It was extremely cruel.

But tonight, a few people did not go to Yin to have fun, but gathered together to discuss the life and death matters of breaking out of the encirclement here.

But among the officers and soldiers outside the city, there was a group of people who looked particularly different. This group of people hid quietly behind a small hill. Suddenly, they clapped their hands, bringing everyone together.

Looking around at everyone, he said in a cold voice: "The demons of the White Lotus Sect in the city are almost unable to hold on, and those Qiu Ba in the army will also be unable to hold on anymore. Tonight will be the time for us to make achievements. From now on, let the White Lotus Sect All the monsters heard the name of Guan Ning's iron cavalry, and they were too frightened to fight us."

"You have confidence!" Cao Bianjiao snorted, and looked around the crowd coldly. He could see the coldness and fear on their faces, and he was excited. Tonight was the time for the extinction of the White Lotus Sect.
