Chapter 32 A Horse Died
Thanks to a living Buddha and a Taoist land god, Shaolin and Wudang are still the Taishan Beidou of this world, even to the extent that they can influence the general trend of the world.

That year, when the previous leader of Mingjiao was about to conquer the northern lands and mountains, he had a secret talk with Patriarch Bodhidharma of Shaolin and Immortal Zhang Sanfeng of Wudang.

Naturally, no fourth person could fully know the content of the secret conversation. In short, from that day on, the Mingjiao leader officially ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, passing the position of Mingjiao leader to an unknown woman at that time.

Since then, the imperial court of the Northern Dynasties and the Mingjiao have been separated. The imperial court is high in the temple and concentrates on governing the country in the north and attacking Xiangyang in the south;Of course, many people still like to refer to the Northern Dynasties as "Heimuya Demon Cult".

Although the soldiers of the Northern Dynasties still hung the Mingjiao sun and moon banners, they no longer cared about Jianghu affairs. The emperor in the northern capital also issued a decree: Jianghu affairs are Jianghu affairs. As long as the martial arts sects do not openly rebel, the imperial court will not interfere.

So on the bright side, Mingjiao has become an ordinary Jianghu sect, and has even been in dispute with the famous sects such as Wuyue Sword League for many years, winning and losing each other, but the imperial court did not intervene.

No one could have imagined that the woman from the Mingjiao would become a sword god with extraordinary martial arts skills.

Just as no one could have imagined that since then, a strange phenomenon that has never occurred in China will take place since ancient times: the northern and southern courts confront each other, but the martial arts sects communicate with each other without being affected.

...

Xiangyang City couldn't get through, so Yang Guo and others could only go south by detour.

Just two li away from Xiangyang City, Yang Guo saw Guo Jing standing on the towering city wall, challenging the enemy.

It coincided with thunder and lightning flashing from the sky, striking down the city, it seemed that Guo Jing had induced the thunder to strike down, and his aura of being one man in charge, like a god descending to earth.

With him around, Xiangyang City would not be able to fall.

Yang Guo was concerned about the aura of his "Uncle Guo", so he detoured for a long time, after passing the Northern Dynasty, he talked with Qu Feiyan and Mr. Chen about the general situation of the world, and heard the above information.

Yang Guo asked Mr. Chen at this time: "This way, I see that the people live in peace, the merchants enjoy their business, and the city of Chang'an is extremely prosperous. The Northern Dynasty seems to have managed the mountains and rivers in the north well. Mr. Chen, do you think that if Huaxia belongs to them all, Would it be better instead?"

Mr. Chen sighed and said:

"Who knows? Our China has been one since ancient times, and no one wants to see the confrontation between the north and the south at this time.

The Northern Dynasties endured restraint and recuperated. Although they never stopped attacking Xiangyang City, they never poured out all their efforts to take this city.

But the more forbearance and restraint the emperor in the northern capital became, the more people worried about his ambition.For example, he promised not to eradicate and incorporate northern martial arts forces, which avoided further loss of life in the north, but no one can guarantee whether it is only to perfuse the two martial arts myths of Shaolin Wudang.

Moreover, when the emperor of the Northern Dynasties made his fortune, he did several deeds that made people with lofty ideals despise him, so that the whole world did not recognize him as orthodox.Although the emperor in Lin'an Mansion in the Southern Dynasty was fatuous and incompetent, unable to restrain the power of various clans, all parts of the South spontaneously joined forces to help Xiangyang. "

Yang Guo was about to ask him what nasty things the emperor of the Northern Dynasty had done, but he heard the bodyguards in front of him cheering:

"I finally saw him, but I'm dying of thirst!"

The Civil War in Xiangyang City made no one dare to settle in the surrounding area. They ran out of fresh water and dry food, and they were worried about having nowhere to buy. At this time, they were delighted to see a village in front of them.

Lin Pingzhi, who was in the lead, was even more happy. He always regarded his white horse as a treasure, and felt distressed even if he took a few more steps on it.

The detour this time is mostly rough and gravel-filled deserted roads. Although there are iron hooves, it is expected that the white horse will not be able to bear it.What's more, after people drink the clean water, the horses have no water to drink, let alone use water to clean the white horse's back.

Lin Ping got off his horse and led him towards the village. Seeing that the young master got off his horse, it was not easy for him to ride, so all the bodyguards dismounted and led him.

Although this place is remote, it is the first village from north to south bypassing Xiangyang City, and it has gathered a lot of popularity.

The business-minded rich peasants in the village changed their own fields, hired long-term laborers to work as waiters in the shop, and opened restaurants to entertain travelers from the north and the south.After making money, they merged the fields of surrounding farmers to build other buildings, and the scale of the restaurant became larger and larger.

At this time, Lin Pingzhi and his party were thirty people, and this restaurant could accommodate them. Not only did they have dining tables and seats, but even the guest rooms were well supplied.

Lin Pingzhi fed the white horse feed and washed the white horse himself, and then came to the dinner table to drink and eat with everyone.

Everyone was exhausted from riding for a long time and finally had a place to rest, and they were able to have a good meal and drink happily.

Qu Feiyan helped Yang Guo rub his sore back after sitting on the horse for a long time, and the two were also infected. They felt that their worries about the Demon Sect were all gone, and there was no need to worry about it anymore.

Thinking of going to Hengyang soon, and if Qu Yang really was there, he would be rewarded by the system, Yang Guo couldn't help but get excited.

As soon as he saw the unparalleled bravery of Guo Jing, he wanted to be able to achieve great martial arts one day and look down on everything.

But life is like a play, and it seems that it will never make people happy enough.

After a while, a person came in with a sad face and walked to the tables of the group.

Lin Pingzhi took a few glances at this man when he was feeding the white horse fodder just now, and recognized him as the groom who took care of the horses in the stable, and asked anxiously:
"What? Has something happened to my horse?"

Seeing Lin Pingzhi's excited look, the groom stepped back in fear, "No...it's not the young master's precious white horse."

When Lin Pingzhi heard that it was not a white horse, he immediately relaxed a lot, and said impatiently:

"We have been traveling for a long time, and the other horses are not as vigorous as my white horse. It is not unusual for one or two horses to die from exhaustion. When we get to the city, we will just buy two more horses.

You hurry back and take care of my white horse. If something happens to it, I will smash your restaurant. "

Hearing what he said, the groom didn't dare to say anything more, and hurried out.

But he whispered in his mouth: "Look at that horse, it doesn't look like it's exhausted."

Hearing the groom muttering, Yang Guo knew something was wrong, pressed Qu Feiyan's hand that was rubbing his shoulder, and wanted to follow him out.

Seeing that Yang Guo was about to leave the table, Qu Feiyan didn't want to sit alone, so she took Yang Guo's hand and signaled that they would go together.Yang Guo was wary at this moment, he didn't dare to let her here alone, so he took her hand and followed the groom.

When I came to the stable at the back, I saw a person was already there, it was Mr. Chen.It turned out that Mr. Chen also heard that something was wrong, so he left the meeting to see what happened.

Yang Guo knew that Mr. Chen was an old Jiang Hu, if there was something wrong, he would be able to see the clues, so he asked:
"Mr. Chen, can you tell that this horse died of exhaustion?"

Mr. Chen's expression was solemn, but he was inconvenient to answer, he just pointed to the dead horse and motioned Yang Guo to take a look first.

Yang Guo and Qu Feiyan raised their eyes to look at it, but after seeing it, they all turned pale with shock.
