Heavenly Dragon

Wuliang Mountain is located in the Tiannan area. This area is mostly hilly, so there are few steep and dangerous peaks that soar into the clouds. However, this area is full of tall trees with wide branches and leaves, covering the sky and sun.

Among the ups and downs of the mountains, there are clouds and mist, dense forests, during which there are tigers roaring and monkeys singing, elk running among them, tall birds perching on the branches, there are many exotic flowers and plants in the mountains, and all kinds of precious medicinal materials. blessed land.

Jianhu Palace is located on a relatively high and protruding peak, surrounded by some relatively small peaks. Surrounded by peaks, white clouds are long and misty, so it is not pleasant.

Nothing stands on the edge of a cliff, looking at the undulating mountains below, the mountains are continuous, in the hazy mist, between the wide leaves and dense forests, you can faintly hear the roaring of lions, the howling of tigers, the surging clouds and mist, approaching The slanting sun at dusk, the sun slanted, dyed the tumbling clouds with a layer of golden yellow, and the golden light was shining, as if a lot of gold powder was scattered and fluttering in the wind.

The mountain wind was blowing, and the purple robe on his body was blown up, and the sleeves fluttered. If it weren't for the short hair on his head, facing the golden mist below, it would really make people think It is the gods descending to the earth, and the immortals are like the dust.

Zuo Zimu stood respectfully behind him. He looked at the emptiness on the edge of the cliff and saw how much hair was only an inch long on his exposed head. He also wondered in his heart why his lord To cut my hair so short.

You must know that this time is in the Northern Song Dynasty. Since Zhao Kuangyin established the Song Dynasty, he has learned the lessons of the former Tang Dynasty's vassals and towns, and greatly strengthened the centralization of power, not only greatly improving the centralization of power in terms of military and economy. , All the elite soldiers from all over the country were transferred to the capital to become guards, and most of the financial taxes from various places were collected into the national treasury.

Therefore, it also caused the weakness of the Song Dynasty. The central and yang were extremely strong, but the localities were indeed poor and weak, resulting in weak border defenses. The Liao Kingdom and Xixia often invaded the borders and drove straight in, but the local governments were unable to organize their effective resistance. .

His approach made the Song Dynasty the earliest dynasty in history that was not forgotten by the rebellion of internal personnel, but by foreign invasion. It is difficult to judge which is right and which is wrong.

Of course, in addition to military and economic means, he also ruled the people of the country ideologically, that is, during the Song Dynasty, he strongly promoted Confucianism, and greatly promoted Confucian loyalty, filial piety and etiquette, which is to let everyone understand Everyone consciously believes that the imperial power is supreme and cannot be violated, and all acts that violate the imperial power are heinous and unforgivable.

In Confucianism, there has always been the idea that "the body, hair and skin are received by parents and cannot be destroyed", that is to say, everyone's body is bestowed by parents, and no matter when we do not get it from our parents Even if it is allowed, it cannot be harmed, otherwise it is disloyal and filial to the parents.

In the eyes of the ancients, the beard and hair are part of the body, and they are also indestructible. Now Wuwu actually cut off his own hair, leaving only such a tiny bit of hair.

Whether it is from the aesthetic point of view of the ancients or from the perspective of loyalty and filial piety, it is very inappropriate, but Zuo Zimu can only think about it in his heart, but he dare not say it in person.

This is the back mountain of Jianhu Palace. Behind nothingness is the large and magnificent Jianhu Palace, and not far away is the immeasurable Jade Bi. He visited Jianhu Palace under the leadership of Zuo Zimu and passed through the disciples. After coming to the residence of the head master and the elders, as well as the treasure house, the attic where the martial arts secret books and scriptures are stored, and so on, he came here.

Standing on it, he felt very relaxed and comfortable, with the whistling mountain wind blowing in his face, looking at the steep cliffs below, rolling clouds and mist, and the sound of beasts crying, which made him really feel like climbing high and looking into the distance. , the transcendent sense of standing on the top of the peak and looking down on all things in the world.

Tread

A hurried footstep suddenly came from behind, disrupting the quiet atmosphere here, breaking the peaceful mood, as if a grain of sand suddenly fell into a calm lake, although it was small, it still stirred up. Ripples and ripples.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, Wu Wu frowned slightly, but he didn't look back, but continued to look at the clouds and mist and the rolling mountains below, listening to the whistling of the wind.

"Master" This is a male disciple of the Wuliang Sword Sect, he bowed as soon as he walked in front of Zuo Zimu.

"Well," Zuo Zimu immediately raised his hand to stop him, "Don't call me the head of the sect anymore."

He has surrendered to nothingness, so naturally he will not dare to call himself the master in the future, and the Wuliang Sword Sect must also be a thing of the past. He is a cautious person, and naturally he will not leave nothingness unhappily caused by these disadvantages.

"Yes", when the man heard it, he quickly agreed, and at the same time nervously glanced at the nothingness in the distance, seeing that he didn't look back, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Zuo Zimu also turned his head to look at the void behind him, pointed to the distance, and the two of them walked a few steps to a place far away, making sure they would not disturb the void.

"What happened?" At this time Zuo Zimu began to restore his previous majesty, and asked in a deep voice.

"Qi Bao Zhang..." The man was about to say the word "head", but Zuo Zimu immediately turned him back with a stare, "there are some women in black robes coming down the mountain, what do they call themselves vultures?" The holy envoys of the palace, they are here to ask us to submit to them."

"The envoy of the Vulture Palace?" Zuo Zimu was puzzled, "Then why don't you drive them all down the mountain?"

"Hurry up", the male disciple hurriedly said, "But they are all highly skilled in martial arts, the disciples and others are no match, so come here to ask for instructions..." He pointed at nothing, he didn't know what to call, who to ask for instructions.

"None of you are opponents? How many people are there?" Zuo Zimu asked in surprise.

"Only six people came from the other party," said the male disciple, stretching out a palm and a finger at the same time.

"Six? All six are women?" Zuo Zimu was startled, and asked loudly, then covered his mouth, knowing that he lost his voice.

"Well, all six of them are women." The male disciple nodded, his eyes drooped, and he didn't dare to look up.

After asking about the situation, Zuo Zimu's face darkened. There are at least dozens of disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect on his side, and dozens of people from the Shennong Gang, adding up to nearly 100 people , He couldn't even beat the other six women, which made him extremely surprised. Looking at the nothingness in the distance, he thought, it wouldn't be the same person as him again.

Within two days, he suddenly met Wu Wu and Zhao Lin's subordinates, and later met three of the four villains. All of these people had much higher martial arts than him, and now six people with mysterious origins suddenly appeared The woman reminded him of the nothingness not far away, and his heart became more and more uncertain.

"What happened?" Not far away, a voice suddenly came from nothing.

Zuo Zimu turned around and saw that he was still facing beyond the cliff, without turning his head, he hurriedly said loudly: "My lord, just now my disciples came to report that six people wearing black clothes came down from the mountain. The women with unknown origins of the robes, all of them are highly skilled in martial arts, the disciples can't resist, the subordinates are afraid, afraid..."

"Are you afraid that you won't be able to beat them?" Xu Wu said coldly.

"Yes." Zuo Zimu was startled, "This subordinate is incompetent, my lord forgives me."

"Okay, I know who they are now, you are indeed not their opponent, you just take me there", Wu Wu waved his hand and turned around with Zhen Zhen.

The three of them had just walked a few steps, when a woman's voice suddenly yelled from a distance: "Where is the head of the Wuliang Sword Sect, Zuo Zimu, are you a shrinking turtle?"

Zuo Zimu, who was walking next to nothingness, immediately sank his face when he heard this. Listening to the voice, the woman would never be beaten at that age, and being scolded so loudly by such a young woman made him suddenly angry .

"Where is this bastard who dares to come to my Wuliang Mountain to act wildly? The old man Zuo Zimu is here, come quickly and die." He roared forward, and the goatee on his chin was also raised in anger .

澎

A figure rushed over quickly and slammed towards Zuo Zimu with strong force. Zuo Zimu's expression sank, he let out a low growl, and slapped out with a palm. He is weak, and his internal strength has been cultivated for decades, but when he slapped the figure with this palm, he suddenly felt that the palm force was blocked, as if he had slapped on a huge boulder.

The strength rebounded, his arm suddenly went numb, and the powerful force came down from the figure, shaking him all over, and he was about to go backwards, when suddenly his shoulder was picked up, and a more powerful and mighty force Passed it over, and then gushed out from his palm.

boom

The impacting figure flew back again, faster than before, and attacked a black-robed woman who had just jumped out.

The whole body of the black-robed woman was covered by the long robe, but there were indeed two piercing cold lights, she stretched out a jade hand and pressed it on the figure that flew back backwards, but then she let out a muffled groan.

The woman's body was frustrated, and she was shocked, and also flew back upside down. A group photo flashed behind her, and two people jumped out one after another. They shot at the same time and landed on the two shoulders of the first black-robed woman.

But then there were two muffled groans, and the three of them backed up together. After falling to the ground, they backed up seven or eight steps in a row before stopping their figures. Puff puff puff, the three of them spat out a mouthful of blood at the same time, obviously At this moment, he was shocked into an internal injury.

"I didn't expect the head of the Wuliang Sword Sect to be so skilled. It seems that apart from Tianlong Temple, there are dragons and tigers hiding in Dali," No. 1 black-robed woman said fiercely, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth.
