Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

"My virtuous niece, don't worry, I have already made arrangements there."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Taoist priest with eyebrows like green peaks, eyes like autumn water, a figure of more than eight feet, with beaded lips, and five long beards floating around, looked like a fairy. Although he was more than fifty years old, his beard and hair were not white at all. Then he came to the hall.

Seeing this Taoist priest, Chen Liqing immediately said happily: "Dad!"

Liu Huiniang then bowed and said, "I've met my uncle."

After several leaders in the hall greeted the Taoist priest one after another, the Taoist priest paid homage to Jiang Hongfei and said, "Chen Xizhen pays homage to the Lord."

That's right.

This Taoist priest is Chen Liqing's father and Jiang Hongfei's cheap father-in-law, Chen Xizhen.

Some people may want to ask, wasn't Chen Xizhen recruited by Gao Qiu to surrender to the Zhao and Song Dynasty? Doesn’t he hate the heroes of Liangshan who rob the rich and give to the poor, do justice for heaven, and eliminate harm for the people? Didn’t he say that if he is loyal, he will not be a robber; if he is a robber, he will not be loyal? Also, didn’t he vow that even if he starved to death, he would not throw himself into the Liangshan Mountains?

Does this even need to be said?

Chen Xizhen was recruited by Gao Qiu. Of course, it was Jiang Hongfei who asked Chen Xizhen to do it, and it was even Jiang Hongfei who sent Le He and others to facilitate the matter.

As for what Chen Xizhen said to the outside world, it was Jiang Hongfei who asked Chen Xizhen to say it, no, Jiang Hongfei asked someone to say it for Chen Xizhen, and Jiang Hongfei took the initiative to let people spread it.

By the way, the trick to get Chen Xizhen to accept recruitment was Liu Huiniang’s idea.

In fact, everyone doesn’t want to think about it. Jiang Hongfei gave birth to three children for Chen Xizhen’s only daughter. Chen Xizhen is also a daughter slave. She has spoiled Chen Liqing since she was a child. She is afraid of melting when she is held in her mouth, or broken when she is pinched in her hands. , who has spoiled Chen Liqing to be both willful and murderous, how could she possibly turn against Jiang Hongfei?

yes.

When Jiang Hongfei first met Chen Xizhen, Chen Xizhen didn't look good on Jiang Hongfei and even almost beat up Chen Liqing for ruining the family style.

But when Chen Liqing brought her son to Jiang Hongfei (Chen Liqing had just given birth to a son to Jiang Hongfei at that time), Chen Xizhen immediately surrendered.

What about Chen Xiyi, Chen Xizhen's younger brother, who was defeated by Lin Chong with heavy hands when competing for the position of instructor of the 800,000-strong Forbidden Army? Since they are robbers, they must not be loyal; why Jiang Hongfei and Chen Liqing got on the bus first and then paid the fare, which made Chen Xizhen embarrassed. Everything fell apart in front of Jiang Hongfei's son. Jiang Hongfei's son pulled Chen Xizhen's beard one by one, making Chen Xizhen smile from ear to ear.

——Later, Chen Liqing gave birth to two sons to Jiang Hongfei one after another, and Chen Xizhen fell even more.

When Jiang Hongfei said to Chen Xizhen: "Yizhou is very important. There is no one with both civil and military skills stationed there. I don't feel at ease. Look, father-in-law..."

Chen Xizhen immediately understood what Jiang Hongfei meant and said: "I must not ignore the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, but because of the certain fate of the times, I cannot seek it arbitrarily. In addition, I have been fond of reading alchemy scriptures and studying secret books since I was a child. The closeness of my nature lies in this." . As of today, the sun is shining brightly and the moon is growing. I understand a little bit about the mysterious principles, and the more I feel that my love cannot be forgotten. I shouldn’t be greedy for the mortal world and devote myself to the Tao. However, what the virtuous son-in-law does is to save the people from the water and fire, and to relieve the suffering of all people. Hanging upside down, how can I not help my virtuous son-in-law?"

actually--

After all, Chen Xizhen was an official fan. He saw that Jiang Hongfei had great potential, so he took advantage of Chen Liqing and Chen Liqing's son to vote for Jiang Hongfei.

With Jiang Hongfei's secret support, Yuanbi Village was able to grow to 20,000 to 30,000 men.

In fact, it can be seen from here that Chen Xizhen's back must not be that simple. Otherwise, how could he, who advocates "not to be an enemy of the government and the army; not to loot villages and towns, harm civilians; not to liaise with Shuibo Liangshan and other bandits", would be able to Can you feed 20,000 to 30,000 horses?

You know, raising an army has always been extremely expensive.

Of course, it cannot be said to the outside world that Jiang Hongfei provided Chen Xizhen with the money and food to support the army.

Externally, Chen Xizhen claimed that he had found a vein of spiritual stones in Qingyun Mountain, containing millions of spiritual stones.

But then again, this really wasn't Chen Xizhen lying.

In fact, there is indeed a spirit stone vein in Qingyun Mountain, and there are indeed millions of spirit stones stored in it.

Not only that, there is a lot of azurite in this spirit stone vein, which can be mined to make bronze, cannons, and even magic weapons.

In addition, there is a large amount of chalk underneath these azurites.

This chalk is a fine clay, not inferior to the fine clay from Ding kiln.

With this chalk, Shuibo Liangshan can make exquisite spiritual weapons by himself and make a lot of money from maritime trade.

Later, Jiang Hongfei recruited a large number of kiln owners, including craftsmen such as plastic blanks, oil hangings, and inlays. The spiritual weapons they fired were cut into pieces and sold to Goryeo and Fusang, earning a large amount of spiritual stones.

In short, Yuanbi Village was nominally recruited by the Zhao and Song Dynasty, but in fact it was one of the branches of Shuibo Liangshan like Qingyun Mountain, and it was also the main force used by Jiang Hongfei to plug the only loophole in Shuibo Liangshan's territory.

Not only that, Yuanbi Village was Jiang Hongfei's last blow against Yun Tianbiao's Song army.

actually--

Liu Huiniang had already come out, and Yuntianbiao would lead the people from Zhengyi Village and Qingzhen Mountain to evacuate the Qingnan area, and then want to withdraw from Shandong from Yizhou.

Therefore, Liu Huiniang gave Jiang Hongfei advice and arranged for Chen Xizhen to be recruited by the Zhao and Song Dynasties.

Because only in this way, the cautious Yun Tianbiao would choose to evacuate Shandong from Yizhou instead of leading his tens of thousands of troops to fight in Jiang Hongfei's territory and destroy Jiang Hongfei's territory.

Jiang Hongfei helped Chen Xizhen up and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't be too polite."

Then, Jiang Hongfei asked: "My father-in-law came here, didn't anyone see him?"

Chen Xizhen said confidently: "I always wore a black robe and covered my face. I came here in the clouds. When I landed, I was picked up by Brother Di Yun. No one will notice."

Jiang Hongfei nodded: "Now is the critical moment to catch Yuntianbiao. Don't be careless. You must know that he is also a delicate person and should not be underestimated."

Chen Xizhen responded: "I don't have to."

At this time, Liu Huiniang interjected: "Uncle, do you have any way to defend the Zhangjia Road?"

Chen Xizhen laughed and said: "Just at the entrance of Zhangjia Road, there is a high platform in the middle, which should be twelve feet high. Build a bell tower on it, and transport the Nine Sun Divine Bell that I made with bluestone to hang. Even if the sky Biao's tens of thousands of troops are coming, and if he wants to go this way, no one will be left alive."

Everyone asked why.

Chen Xizhen said: "You don't know, but the divine bell I sacrificed is for today's use. The talismans and restraints on the bell contain the innate pure Yang energy, which can capture the sentient spirit. With a bang, the surrounding area is filled with energy. Within nine miles, all living creatures were so drunk that they could not move. It took a week to wake up, but it did not hurt their lives. Even if the ears were stuffed, it would not help. Only the secret words of Taiyin Yuan could calm the mud. Maru Palace, there will be no harm. I have made thousands of scarves and worn them with my people to guard this clock. No matter how powerful Yuntian Biao's soldiers are, unless he does not go this way, he will come. Everyone is fooled. My master Zhang Zhenren often tells me: This method should not be used lightly until there is a crisis. Use it when the manpower is no longer available, so as not to violate the law of heaven. This is exactly what it means."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Only Jiang Hongfei listened quietly and said: "Father-in-law's pure yang treasure is definitely not the wheel of yin. It is not afraid of the scorching sun, thunder, and filth. It is indeed a good treasure. But this treasure is Afraid of the treasure of pure yin and tranquility. When Gao Qiu came to fight this time, he and Zhao Ji borrowed three Kinmen feather guests, Wang Yuncheng, Xu Zhichang, and Wang Wenqing. Each of these three people has profound magic and great supernatural powers. There is no guarantee that they will not be able to do it. Break the Nine-Yang Divine Bell of my father-in-law."

Chen Xizhen came from Bianliang City in Tokyo. How could he not know that the Kinmen feathers that Zhao Ji raised were powerful?

Especially Wang Yuncheng.

You should know that among Zhao Ji's Kinmen feather guests, there are three most recommended ones: Lin Lingsu, Zhang Xubai and Wang Yuncheng.

Lin Lingsu has profound Taoist skills, and is especially good at thunder. His five thunders can break through all kinds of magic, and are almost the most powerful attack spells in the world.

Not to mention Chen Xizhen, it is hard to say whether even Luo Zhenren can beat Lin Lingsu.

I'm afraid that only Chen Xizhen's ancestor Chen Tuan is still alive, so he can compete with Lin Lingsu.

Later, Lin Lingsu may have offended too many people, especially Prince Zhao Huan, who liked Buddhism but not Taoism. The two also had conflicts over the Taoism. In addition, Lin Lingsu became more and more arrogant. On the one hand, Zhao Ji found out about it, which made Zhao Ji unhappy. Lin Lingsu was dismissed by Zhao Ji as Doctor Taixu and returned to his hometown.

It is said that before Lin Lingsu left the capital, he left behind all the things Zhao Ji had given him and took nothing with him. After leaving the capital, he paid homage to Zhao Ji from a distance and burst into tears.

It is a pity that Lin Lingsu, who was not very young, died in Chuzhou not long ago, and a generation of powerful strangers fell.

And Zhang Xubai, named Zhixiang, was from Nanyang, Dengzhou, and was a Taoist priest in Taiyi Palace. He is six feet long and has a beautiful beard. The nature is quiet and serious, and it is through the Taiyi Liuren technique. Pay attention to Dan'ao, and you will get the secret when you meet a strange person. The Taoism is extremely profound and he loves drinking. After drinking too much, the calculations using Taiyi magic are extremely accurate.

Zhang Xubai was different from other Kinmen guests. Zhao Ji always called him "Zhang Hu" instead of his name. He likes to drink, and every time he drinks, he can say whatever he wants without hiding anything. He once lay on Zhao Ji's lap after being drunk, and Zhao Ji said tolerantly: "Zhang Hu, you are drunk."

Historically, after Emperor Yelu Yanxi, Lord Tianzuo of Liao Dynasty, was captured by the Jin people, Zhao Ji asked Zhang Xubai to speculate on good or bad luck.

Zhang Xubai then used Taiyi to calculate for a while and said: "Tian Zuo has been building a palace on the sea to wait for His Majesty for a long time."

When the people on the left and right heard this, they were all shocked.

But Zhao Ji was not angry. He looked at Zhang Xubai and said slowly: "Zhang Hu, you are drunk again."

Zhao Ji especially liked Zhang Xubai and asked him to take charge of Longde Taiyi Palace, and would not let Zhang Xubai leave his side easily.

And Wang Yuncheng can be ranked as famous as Lin Lingsu and Zhang Xubai, which shows how high his ability is. Even if he is not a land god, he should be almost less.

Originally, Chen Xizhen had full confidence in the Nine Yang Divine Bell.

When Jiang Hongfei mentioned the Kinmen Yuker, especially when he mentioned that Wang Yuncheng was also here, Chen Xizhen immediately showed an unconfident expression.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Xizhen said: "Master Wang Tian has great magical power. If he is a person like Master Zhang, if he takes action, my Nine-Yang Divine Bell may not be effective."

Jiang Hongfei knew this was the case. He took out a mirror and a jade slip and said to Chen Xizhen: "Father-in-law, I know you have a Qianyuan mirror, and I have a Liguang mirror here. I will teach you another refining process." Using the weapon technique, you can refine these two precious mirrors into a Qianyuan Liguang Mirror, and you should be able to fight with the Kinmen Yu Ke."

When Chen Xizhen saw the Liguang Mirror, his eyes lit up. He was a knowledgeable person and understood that this mirror could use the true fire of the sun when the red sun was in the sky. It was extremely powerful and difficult to refine.

Chen Xizhen's eyes brightened when he saw the weapon refining technique Jiang Hongfei passed on to him again.

——Chen Xizhen could tell at a glance that the weapon refining method Jiang Hongfei passed on to him was not an ordinary method. Even his master Zhang Zhenren might not have this ability.

This also made Chen Xizhen more and more certain that his son-in-law was not an ordinary person. He might not be able to accomplish great things, nor might he overthrow the rule of the Zhao and Song dynasties.

Jiang Hongfei reassured Chen Xizhen: "These three Kinmen feathers will probably follow Gao Qiu and will not easily go to Yun Tianbiao to help, so you don't have to worry too much and do your best to prepare, just in case."

Chen Xizhen responded: "No."

Next, Liu Huiniang passed on her strategic vision for annihilating Yun Tianbiao's Song army to Chen Xizhen.

Chen Xizhen knew that his niece was very powerful, she had many tricks up her sleeve, and her abilities were not comparable to his, so she listened very carefully...

After making arrangements for Yizhou, the last place where Jiang Hongfei was worried, Jiang Hongfei took Liu Huiniang and others back to Shuibo Liangshan, preparing to capture the areas of Dongping Prefecture and Dongchang Prefecture.

At this time, a figure that Jiang Hongfei had forgotten suddenly appeared in Jiang Hongfei's mind...
